Bweoti, you double posted. Could you edit one so it takes up less space please?

And also, try using a spoiler, takes up even less space.

Remove the space in the beginning and that way we can expand and collapse it to save hassle.

EDIT: And so we have our tank! I like how so far everyone is not exactly good at making friends :P

Hey peoples,

I've read most everything, except maybe a paragraph or two, and I must say that I am very interested.

First, before I make an application, I have several questions:

A ) What kind of 'senior' Shifter form would it be? If I were a Dragon Twin Soul, would I be half-dragon? Would I shift between human and dragon form? Does it matter?

B ) Would a tactical combat suit work for a half-dragon? Not a full armor set, since a dragon would already be armored, but strong titanium braces, with everything from a tactical heads-up display via hologram, to Edge of Tomorrow style shoulder-mounted weaponry?

C ) Would being known only by a nickname, and refusing to give out the real name, work?

D ) Final question: Would a dragon-type be able to focus more on speed and reflexivity? Even if it's a half-man half-dragon, that doesn't mean he has to be slow. Giving up the chance to drastically increase in size so he can become faster and quicker, lighter on his feet. Strong enough to be stronger than those around, but also fast AND strong enough to hold his own against a primarily fast, or a primarily strong character.

EDIT: E ) Is this open anymore?

I can't answer everything, as I am not the Great All Knowing and Wise Kapuchu (That's his/her/nir new title, okay everyone?)

But to try and help as much as I can, if you've read my (and idk about Kapu's) character sheet or the set-up info, shifters can have a different set of clothing when they shift. Of course, the shoulder mounted weaponry wouldn't make as much sense, seeing how Earth's mechs were essentially useless, even with all their weaponry. (And nerdy nitpick time- but seriously? Titanium with this tech level? Carbon nanotubes and other nanomaterials are where it's at. Lighter, stronger, harder, tougher, etc...)

As far as shifter form: From what I understand, we can shift between the two at will. Your human form is still your human form, and while maybe you'll have a teensy bit of magic as such, it doesn't really kick in until you shift. As far as the shifter form, as long as you're in keeping with the class and whatnot (no 20ft Fae or super short Titans), you're basically only bound by the rules, logic, and your imagination.

And I imagine that exchanging brute force for extra mobility and speed is perfectly fine, again if you've read my own character sheet, I traded some speed for a strength and endurance power-up.

Of course I'm just speculating, so take my input with a grain of salt.

And as to whether it's open...? Eeeh... probably not, but the fact that you're putting actual forethought into this does make me hope Kapu might make an exception.

And to tack onto what Monochromatic has stated, Kapuchu has requested that nobody double up on Classes....So you being a dragon when there's already one would infringe on LittleMist's mojo. There another option for you? And like Mono said, neither of us are Kapu, so he may allow nonetheless

Ack, thank you, Bweoti.

Kapu did indeed request that we not double up on the classes, I've been busy so I ended up skipping over or forgetting several things.

Surely there's some other subclass in Titan you could take? I imagine you don't want Gorgon, so...

It's too late for me, I kind of need my sleep. Hopefully Kapu can help.

1 - We're talking about a full dragon body, but depending on what kind of skills you want to focus on (speed and flexibility rather than brute strength and incredible defense) will affect what kind of dragon we're talking about. You could be a more wyrm-like dragon: Sleek, streamlined instead of bulky and muscley like the typical Western Dragon. Of course, they would be somewhat smaller than the tyical western dragon then.

2 - No. Whatever technical equipment can be made would be utterly useless. These Shifters, and magic in general, is so powerful that technological armour and weapons won't be of any help.

3 - You would be known by your birth name/true name by The Academy and other "high ups," but any other student might only know you by your nickname if you want that to be so.

4 - Much like I said in #1, dragons can be a bit quick and, but still sturdy and strong. Their biggest strength is that they are a good mix of speed, power and durability.

5 - I'm afraid it's not open anymore. We already have 8/9 players, and anymore will be too much. You can throw up a character and I'll put you in the "reserves", so if anyone jumps out I'll give you a shout and you can join :)

On a final note, like others also pointed out, I'd prefer if people don't double post with Shifter types. You can also always find another mythological creature that you want to be, and I'll give you a run-down of what Class they would fit under, and what I imagine their strengths and weaknesses to be.

Edit: Also, like Monochromatic said, you do change between your Shifter and Human form at will.

And on a side note for future reference.....A 'smaller faster' dragon could be the Eastern dragons, which resemble long thin lizards with 6 legs and no wings, but they fly through the air by magic. Oriental dragons.

And if the mythology matters, iirc the eastern dragons tended to be more wise sages and helpful in general.

character sheet


There's only really two thing, and that is his levitation magic-thingie. Magic in your human forms aren't very powerful, if you have any at all. He would be strong as a human, yes, but he'll be stronger in his Giant form.

So this levitation-like magic would only really be powerful in his Titan form, allowing him to lift several tons. Also, for a Giant Titan, I feel like 25 feet is a little small. Perhaps 30 feet? That would put his height at a few metres above a typical (shifter) dragon's shoulder.
The second thing is really just a small mistake, and that's the fact that The Academy is a 3-year course, not 5 years. You start on the third year :)

: Asae Asumi: Female: 18: Dragon: :: : : : ::


There is... quite a lot of stuff with this character. First is her powers: She doesn't have any, nor does her parents. It was made perfectly clear in the first post where I wrote all the info that normal humans don't have any magical powers of any kind. Furthermore, even after she becomes a Shifter she won't have that kind of magic. Dragons (and generally Titans) have very little active magic, as they focus on brute strength, being incredibly durable and so on. A Fire Breath or something like that is the most a standard Dragon would have.

The second thing, I feel, is the biggest. It's basically her entire personality coupled with background. I get the feeling that she's a rather friendly person, but still utterly insane and unstable. No one would let someone mentally unstable like that join the army, let alone make them powerful enough to destroy an entire town singlehandedly. That's not to mention that Social services would have inteferred if she really did live under borderline torture and opression, mental and physical. I'm afraid that you character, as she is, would not be allowed to become a Shifter. She's just far too unstable.

I'll have to ask you to rework her personality and background to something a bit more realistic--as well as remove the 'Powers' she and her parents have. And try not to make it one where her parents pressure her as we already have that, and having all characters be pretty much identical doesn't make for a very interesting RP.

the Eastern dragons are the ones I would say are more magically focused; More powerful breaths, capable of summoning powerful winds (if you're an Air Dragon, for example). But yes, you could also make a Physical Dragon like that.

Would simply a bus-sized dragon work? Since, you know, if everyone else is the size of a large house, or very much larger, then a bus-sized dragon could just crawl over them with ease. Perhaps a dragon that's less mythical dragon, and more of a lizard? A unique dragon, where there isn't as much heavy scales, which frees of range and speed of movement? Perhaps when dragon essence mixed with the human soul, a bit of a mess-up occured where part of the human essence mixed with the unintegrated essence of the dragon, which led to a less-dragon-y dragon shifter?

And dragons are all I really have interest in. Or a half-man half-dragon, which would certainly be unique in the roleplay.

They don't, but like me, you can make a app and they'll put it in the queue in case someone drops out.

EDIT: Wait, would a wyvern rather than a dragon work?

Unfortunately, Kapu doesn't want us doubling up on classes, I. E. Only one Valkyrie.

That spot is currently occupied by myself. As is Kitsune by Kapu, and if seems giant had basically been taken by the only other person to get a complete character sheet so far.
And iirc, Harpy has been reserved.

Sorry.
