Chasers: Boundary of the Crimson Sky

[Thecrash20]

I was thinking of joining, but after seeing the 2nd page, I really don't even...

[TheWendil]

I didn't think you needed me to post here to know my interest was present. We have a chat for that -_-

@Lonewolf685

I enjoy not mentioning you.

I was thinking of joining, but after seeing the 2nd page, I really don't even...

@Thecrash20

You know you want to.

[RoflsMazoy]

What the, I thought you guys' normal flirting was bad, but I've never seen one take a whole page before. -_-

Anyway, I'm going to finish my updated sheet soon, I just gotta get the sample post done. If I can't have this one making another one is going to take a long time >.<

Powers

Transformation:
Sume-san has the power to transform into three forms besides his 'regular' form. He doesn't actually know whether or not his small self is his default form but it is the form he feels the most comfortable in which probably counts for something. Additionally, each of his other forms are extremely different from his normal form so Sume-san is at least 90% sure that his small form is his default form.

Damage in each form is sustained on that specific form only. He could theoretically avoid lethal damage by switching to a different form just before he succumbs to his wounds, but if he ever switched back to that form he would most likely die. Fortunately; one of the common characteristics amongst them all is their toughness so he rarely has to worry about wounds.

Combat Forms

Lacertes: Lacertes is the name that Sume-san gives his first form, a large western-style dragon which can put out surprising speed. Lacertes has a long, serpentine body, smooth scales and is surprisingly flexible despite its size. Besides its maneuverability, Lacertes also has high enough strength to crush concrete with its bare hands, and his bite is also particularly powerful. To finish the arsenal, Lacertes also has some short-ranged fire breath. Due to how well rounded it is, Lacertes is Sume-san's primary combat form to scout out the situation and see whether he needs to use anything more specialized. An interesting thing to note is that Lacertes, as well as the rest of his forms, don't really resemble the creatures native to the Crimson Sky. They tend to be rather physical with their attacks, whereas many creatures in the Crimson Sky use magic. Pound for pound, Lacertes can hold his own quite well, but some opponents are simply too much for him.

Desperadon: Bigger than Lacertes and much, much stronger; the Desperadon has a terrifying presence. Its bulk makes it far less maneuverable than Lacertes, and in fact it is actually quite clumsy. The Desperadon makes up for it by being able to crush most enemies underfoot. He also has some nasty teeth, and the ability to fire a laser from his mouth; but the laser is incredibly taxing on him so he can't do it too often. The Desperadon attracts a lot of attention as well so he doesn't want use it unless he really has to.

Xalos: His final, and strongest form. About the same size as Lacertes, Xalos is a quadrupedal creature, which looks like a mix between a dragon and a tiger. Its strength isn't as high as the Desperadon's, but it has the ability to generate and control electricity in the form of lightning. If he were to use his maximum output to produce a lightning strike, it would be able to blow a hole in a tank. Xalos does however generate ambient electricity completely independent of Sume's own will, making the form more draining just to be in. As long as he isn't engaged in combat, his stamina won't drain faster than he can replenish it by resting or eating, but extended combat in this form will likely leave him tired out after some time.

Border Walker:
Sume-san instinctively knows the way to enter the Crimson Sky. He can freely walk the boundary between the worlds, and sometimes he even switches dimensions on accident. Something interesting to note is that he seems to be able to stay in the human world for very long periods of time compared to other Yokai. He can last up to a week before needing even a little bit of spiritual energy. It might be because he has a large resevoir for his transformations, but it's still very nice since he can't seem to drain spiritual power from humans very well.. If he tries, he only gets a small trickle of energy and most of the time the human doesn't even notice.

Skills:

He is able to throw his blobfish very accurately and is also surprisingly strong in his normal form.

Other:

He calls his blobfish mob.

sample post

Other Yokai found him very strange.

Waking up with no memory in the Crimson Sky was very strange to begin with, but what was really strange was how he fit, or rather how he shouldn't have. He was a very unusual Yokai. He looked different from all the other Yokai, and his powers weren't similar to any other Yokai's. He spent most of his time in the human world, when he appeared again in the Crimson Sky it was usually on accident and he couldn't drain humans for spiritual energy. But despite all that, he seemed to fit somewhere high in the food chain. The place where weaker Yokai challenge you, but never really win, and the higher Yokai know to stay away from because he was too strong to be 'prey'.

It was with that position that he found himself in an interesting position today, hanging from the legs in his small form in a Jirai Gumou's web.

"Hey, this is kind of fun!" Sume said, swinging around in circles.

"...God, you're so weird." She said. He hadn't seen this specific Jirai Gumou before, but he was well known amongst some Yokai, and the Jirai Gumou he knew particularly well because they were usually an enjoyable time.

"Thank you!" He said, whipping around, before suddenly being blatted in the face by something squishy.

"It wasn't a compliment," The Jirai Gumou said, clearly annoyed.

She'd hit him with mod, who was similarly tied up at that point in time.

"I'd heard stories about you, but I didn't know what to think about someone so strange." She continued, slowly advancing towards him. She reached out and grabbed him as he wiggled his arms around. "I didn't think you'd look so weak..."

"Aw! That tickles!" He said as she poked his belly.

"Since your friends aren't here, you're mine now..." She said. She reared back her head, displaying fangs dripping with venom and then lunged forward to strike...

CRUNCH.

Where the Jirai Gumou and mysterious Yokai had been, now there was a rust colored dragon. It chewed for a few moments before spitting out what appeared to be giant spider legs. The web supporting it tore away from the building, clearly not strong enough to hold the new weight of the dragon. The colossal form shrank back down into a tiny shape, a tiny fish with four legs shaking off the dust it had created with its landing.

"I was right!" He said happily, "Jirai Gumou are fun!"

<.< Golly, this blew up fast.... probs not go back for lost posts so if there was anything of note. xD ... only three pages, nvm... was looking at number of posts.

anywho, is there a power limit to any of this mess?

[TheWendil]

@Aether Spawn

Power limits are a case by case basis. Show us what you have in mind and we'll see.

Zamora

Name: Talia Hale
Title/Alias: Zamora
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Height: 170 cm
Weight: 58 kg

Appearance:

Powers: Logomancy - General magic given power through the use of words and understanding. Talia's domain lies mostly in Conjuration and Evocation; allowing her to create simple objects and have control within the physical, psychic, and spiritual planes of nature. Apart from the incantation, Talia is also restricted by her own personal ability. Overuse and spells beyond her skill can exert her beyond her tolerance, causing fatigue or even death. Breaking from focus can cause spells to backfire, going out of control and becoming a manifestation of its own will until the spell fizzles out or the magic supply is cut.

Weapons: Magic imbued cane - Allows some magical energy to be stored, making the focus and physical draining less taxing on her body. Can also be enchanted to a small degree to aid in combat.

Equipment: Pointed feathers - Decorative feathers kept in the band around her hat. A bit small and unimpressive, but is made with a metal stem and comes to a point that allows it to be thrown into wood at a small distance. Also doubles as a rough pic for locks and can draw blood if shoved in with great force.

Other: Theme

Sample Post/Introduction:

"Mom!! I'm not a child any more, besides uncle expects me to open for tonight while he returns from his trip-"

"And you're still not supposed to use our family props until we've taught you everything."

"But,..." With a sigh, Talia resigned her protest. She'd been running the show for near two years now and still she wasn't trusted with her uncle's cane or hat or gloves. The first being the only one he didn't take with him, wherever it was that he disappeared to from time to time. In fact, her uncle had seemed to forgot about the cane all together. It has been years since it had last left its case on the wall, but it remained to this day free of dust as part of Talia's cleaning duty. Her mother had financial business to attend to, finally leaving with the car to catch her meeting, while her father was in the back, prepping the tigers in case her uncle was running later than anticipated.

Of course if uncle does need it tonight, no one would be able to grab it tonight in time. Talia thought as she removed the cane from its case and preceded to the stage. Curtains would rise soon and butterflies had taken over her stomach as they did every show night. Levart rednu rehtona noom. Supposedly a calming spell as told by her uncle when Talia first walked in on her uncle practicing the show. She said it to herself before every show since; first thinking it, then out loud with feeling to solidify her resolve. "Levart rednu rehtona noom!"

Wait... something was off? Talia closed her eyes momentarily, she will admit, but this wasn't her performance hall. Not exactly. Everything was off, Talia didn't know how to explain it. Worse; looking behind her, she noticed father and the tigers were no longer there. Talia's heart was racing as she ran out through the main entrance of the hall and out into the street. Not a soul in sight, except a strange creature in the distance. Heart pounding, she clutched her uncle's cane and walked closer. It didn't look like a normal stray; and in the moment it turned around, it grew 5 times bigger than its original size and bearing sharp, deadly teeth. Talia ran. Ran as fast as her legs would carry her as tears of fear flooded down her cheeks back inside her hall. Nothing more to do, she balled up hidden away and closed her eyes. Levart rednu rehtona noom... Levart rednu rehtona noom...

"Levart rednu rehtona noom..." She opened her eyes, astonished to find herself back in her world, the real world.

@Aether Spawn

You'll need to describe exactly how that first power changes the world around her.

[BubbleGumKing]

I was wondering what is the status of the Japanese Gods in this instance? I was planning to make a shrine guardian to the God Inari who is taking place in this roleplay. Would that be acceptable? If not then, I'll change the idea but I would still like to know the current status of the Gods (if you planned for them).

@TheWindel

[Aether Spawn]

Changed powers to more specific. About as good as I can get for the time being, about time I took a break from anything serious.

Logomancy - General magic given power through the use of words and understanding. Talia's domain lies mostly in Conjuration and Evocation; allowing her to create simple objects and have control within the physical, psychic, and spiritual planes of nature. Apart from the incantation, Talia is also restricted by her own personal ability. Overuse and spells beyond her skill can exert her beyond her tolerance, causing fatigue or even death. Breaking from focus can cause spells to backfire, going out of control and becoming a manifestation of its own will until the spell fizzles out or the magic supply is cut.

[TheWendil]

@Aether Spawn

That should be fine with me though also check it with @KoL.

@BubbleGumKing

Japanese Gods are very prevalent here. Just to be clear, you're apping the shrine maiden and not the God itself, yes?

[BubbleGumKing]

@TheWindel
No, while I may not be applying for a God, I would be applying for a Kitsune who is the servant of Inari (which I should of mention specifically instead of simply 'shrine guardian', so my bad on that part) if that would be okay. The Kitsunes that I had in idea who worked under Inari would be the God's form of the Komainu of Shinto Shrines, who were 'Guardian Spirits' of the temples and would like to apply that idea in a similar way. Hopefully, this is fine with you, if not then I can simply make a Shrine Maiden of a different idea, which I would talk to you about.

However, back onto my Kitsune idea, would it be fine that Isonokami Shrine be a Temple to house all the Japanese Gods? I plan to make use of it in my character's backstory and hope that it would be okay to change a very important religious site.

[TheWendil]

@BubbleGumKing

The Kitsune is fine by me. As for the temple hosting every Japanese God, the GMs will need to discuss that further before giving you a verdict.

[TheWendil]

So I lied about Tuesday.
