Decided to join this interesting RP, if you'll have me. Here are my current list of candidate PCs:
[list][*][b]Type:[/b] Mage
[b]Age:[/b] 17
[b]Element:[/b] Crystals
[b]Concept:[/b] (unsure)
[b]Personality:[/b] Basically a prim and proper lady from the West who will use a high school student as her cover.
[b]Spells:[/b] A wide variety of abilities related to controlling crystalline substances or gems. Can generate shields, traps, traditional attack spells, and can even turn crystals into magic-filled fragmentation grenades. Higher-tier magic is basically summoning a Crystalline golem for short periods of time.
[*][b]Type:[/b] Mage, sort of
[b]Age:[/b] 16
[b]Element:[/b] Nature/Plants
[b]Concept:[/b] Growth or Healing
[b]Personality:[/b] Cheerful bubbly, and rather quirky at times. She also refuses to wear shoes unless she has to.
[b]Spells:[/b] Generally nature- or plant-related. While she can use animals as 'spies' or can even impose a small amount of control over them, she specializes in plant- and wilderness-based spells, like entangling roots, summoning large thorn bushes, clouds of poison pollen for various effects, and using plants for defense and offense. Her higher-tier spell includes awakening trees as treants for a short amount of time to fight for her.
[*][b]Type:[/b] Mage (again, sort of)
[b]Age:[/b] 23
[b]Element:[/b] Fire
[b]Concept:[/b] Purification
[b]Personality:[/b] Helpful and friendly, but also dutiful and somewhat strict. He is a priest sent by the Catholic Church to observe the tournament, though some of his superiors have also given him orders to win the tournament for the Church.
[b]Spells:[/b] Mostly buff/debuff as he is heavily a short- to mid-range fighter with some basic fireballs and fire ranged attacks. Mostly, he uses fire to act as damage fields, boost his attacks, and 'burn away' any special statuses his opponents may create, whether beneficial or otherwise.[/list]
