Sorry @MonsieurShade - I'm packing and getting ready for the hotel now. Staying three nights and then on a 22 hour flight to USA. So! Basically, I'll be looking at the CS tonight (for me) or tomorrow when I'm going to post. Hope you can wait! =D

@MonsieurShade - Calling him approved, but can you elaborate on what geomancy is, in this case? My only experience with it mostly in Final Fantasy Tactics. xD Also going to start working on a post. Hopefully I get it done!

@lydyn Alright bare with me, things are bout to get somewhat nerdy for this first bit. The term "geomancy" is, by it's definition, a form of divination, meaning that the wielder can gain insight from the element of their choice (pyromancy, hydromancy, geomancy, aeromancy, etc.) and even read the future through said element if conditions are permissive. That's the old proper definition anyway. These days however the "-mancy" types of magic have pretty much fallen into the category of elemental manipulation, and are widely accepted as such.

In this particular case Jacque falls somewhere into second category. He can manipulate earth, moving and molding it as he wishes within a certain range (say, within ten meters of his person) provided he stays firmly planted on the ground. He can neither change the earth's chemical properties (i.e. making topsoil into obsidian or bedrock or something equally silly), nor can he extend his powers beyond that particular element's range (if he manipulates something like mud then the water present can interfere with his control and make things harder as he has no control over it). He can create and manipulate constructs such as earthen golems if he wishes to, but when you combine the fact that this would undoubtedly require more precision than simply pulling up and throwing a big ass rock at someone with the fact that he's still learning, then there's a limit to what he can make in terms of size, quantity and quality (few bird or mouse sized clay or dirt golems are easy enough, a single human sized rock golem is something he could do with time and effort, but a skyscraper sized diamond golem is an absolute impossibility). This power does not render him immune to the effects of his chosen element; he can be suffocated under a mound of dirt or concrete as easily as he can be drowned, and pelting him in the head with a fist sized rock will put him down as easily as it would anyone else. He just happens to be a bit better at doing the pelting.

tl;dr it's magical geokinesis

@PatrickDrummer - You never get to editing or changing the CS and to be honest, it kind of slipped my mind. I've been all over the past week or so... however if you can re-post the edited CS and everything looks good, I'll go ahead and approve the character. It's totally a bad on my part, so I'll make an exception - since we already have 8 people (which was originally my max). Hope that makes sense!

[@EVERYONE] - I might be a bit to posting sadly. Maybe this weekend? Mainly because tomorrow I fly to Arizona from South Korea - a 22 hour flight. Then I'll need a bit of recovery time on the jet lag. xD Otherwise I should be in business after that. That's the plan anyways. xD

@lydyn I looked back at what you mentioned and made edits based on that, so that means I took out "Enhanced" in the strength section and made it sound like more suitable. I also kept the part saying he's the smartest person you'll ever meet but before that it does say his power is "Super Intelligence" and I believe that was all, but if I missed something do let me know.

For an RP that's in it's beginning phase, this one's moving at a slow pace. While I don't lack the patience to quit after 2-3 days of no response, nor am I the type of person to lose interest in a jiffy, this is an indicator that this RP won't last long. I'm not interested in participating in a roleplay that is gonna crash before a proper takeoff.

I'm leaving. Good luck to all of you in your endeavours.

Lydyn has made it perfectly clear that she has had a lot going on. Yes, while it is in the begining phase, and moving slow, that is not an indicator that this is going to crash. I am in a couple of roleplays that are slow at the moment, and have come to the conclusion that it is merely the time of year. As this generally happens about this time, given the last two years.

I, for one, am going to make sure it doesn't crash.

@Krot The GM did say that they'd be unresponsive until the weekend. As for the others not replying thus far, I was under the impression that we were simply waiting for the plot to move a bit forward before we actually began to post a bit more frequently. Stagnation kills an Rp, yes; but a cluster of replies without nothing to go off of can do it just as quick. The only difference is that the clustered RP has a tendency to be a bit messier in its departure.

Just got over my jetlag, but since I just moved in with part of my family, I decided to take today off. I am however, DEFINITELY posting tomorrow. So if anyone hasn't replied yet, you might have to catch up. As for those who decided to leave... well, sorry to hear that, but unless all the players leave, this isn't dying. Even if that happens, I'll start it up again. Just a FYI. ^.^ For those of you staying - thank you for being patient! <3
