The Equipment Necessary--Interest Check/Signup

Hey, just thought I'd try my hand at one of these. Hope someone will join...

The world of Ridgar has been quite peaceful for the past century or so...but now trouble is growing. It seems something dark and powerful has swallowed up an entire kingdom in the far north. People everywhere are talking about it--wondering if the prophesied Age of Darkness is coming...and where the heroes may be. Nobody is sure exactly what's going on up in the north...there are just too many rumors to work it out.

Ridgar is a land of some magic and some technology. They don't have guns or cars or lasers, but a magically-powered televisions, washers, stoves, and so on are quite commonplace--as well as mana batteries to power portable devices of the sort. Again, everyone still fights with swords, bows, maces, quarterstaves, and so on.
Prophecy points to the appearance of many heroines in the Age of Darkness, each wielding a powerful piece of equipment. The prophesies are quite clear they are female. The heroes of our story, however...are not.
At least not yet.

Character Sheet (delete what's in parentheses before posting):
Name:
Gender: Male
Age: (Should be under 30)
Race: Human (If you want something different, ask)
Profession: (Be as creative as you want with this. Preferably not already a fighter or mage though.)
Preferred Weapon in Crisis: (may or may not be the one you get. Can be 'nothing'.)
Appearance:

i have some free time and i haven't done a rp in a while so here's a quick one.

Name: Bob 'Gil' Szqiajfkially (no even he's not sure how to pronounce it correctly, his real last name was lost in a bet when he was a teen)
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Race: Human
Profession: technically Bard... though if it makes money or involves hot girls he'll probably have had some training in it so leaning rogue.
Preferred Weapon in Crisis: his trusty bagpipes the music that comes from these infernal devices would make even the deadest undead cring in terror. If your talking about formal weapons it would have to be the knives hidden about his body.

ZeroForever: Eh...I didn't communicate it well initially but the general idea is that the heroes aren't very good at fighting to begin with...
Bah, whatever..It can work either way. Accepted-

Sasha: The "profession" is for what job the guy has as a human, not what class they have later on.

Oh, and I forgot one thing--which I apologize profusely for--so you'll need to add in "Appearance"--this is appearance as they start out. I'm probably picking female appearances. Maybe.

Okay. I think everyone so far is accepted. Sasha, I may need an at least somewhat similar picture to work with when the time comes...speaking of which, the heroes will be gaining their respective pieces of equipment one at a time, so your change may not occur for a little while. Just a warning.

Anyway... NPC Prophet:
Name: Prophet(?)
Gender: Male
Age: ???
Race: Veiled by a cloak
Profession: Prophet/Guide
Preferred Weapon in Crisis: Disappearing inconveniently
Appearance: A mid-height man(?) covered in a black cloak. Uses a gnarled staff to walk, speaks in a low but not overly-deep voice.

I may or may not throw in a character of my own to be a hero(ine)...and this will start..soonish.
