@EnterTheHero No problem. It's nice to have your work appreciated. :)

@Western Robot

Ally is now complete, everything should be in order now.

Suzie Greshan

Name: Suzie Greshan

Age (Magical Girl): 7

Age (Before Magical Girl): 22

Gender: Female

Gender (Before Magical Girl): Female

Appearance:
She stands at 3’11’’ with short, carrot-red hair, and a very well developed body for a ‘7’ year old. With ample breasts and wide hips she can look a little plump angles because of her rather stout body, which is a bit annoying.

Suzie Greshan

Specialization: Metal

Weapon: Mystic Amulet

Power:
Hammerspace

Perks:
Enhanced Transformation
Gifted
Training – Mechanics
Mystic Artifact
Ally

Patron: Lesser Force

Patron Benefits:
Focused – Easier to concentrate on magic and uses less mana per spell
Subtle – Harder to Sense by others
Genki Girl – Near limitless Stamina
Physical Prowess

Patron Drawbacks:
Loud – Hard to keep anything secret

Fighting Style: Using a style she had dubbed, Trash’em, Smash’em, and Craft’em. Suzie makes great use of her Hammerspace in order to compliment her attacks and fashion weapons. Crowbars, steel pipes, nails, car doors, power tools, pretty much anything you can find at a junkyard she has stashed away in her Hammerspace for later. Her combat style is to smash opponents with whatever she finds handy in her pocket dimension, which, due to her metal magic, can be manipulated for a wide variety of effects. While she can use her amulet to attack as well, usually she just uses it like a makeshift gun, to propel small metal objects at the enemy like nails and bolts’n’nuts. This gives her great variety in her weapon choices to suit the current moment.

If she ends up fighting in a location with a lot of metal objects, she can manipulate them quite easily to turn the tide to her advantage.

Stats (Untransformed):
STR: 4
AGI: 4
VIT: 4
MAG: 3
LCK: 3

Stats (Transformed):
STR: 12
AGI: 6
VIT: 12
MAG: 8
LCK: 4

Personality:
Suzie is a somewhat snarky individual who is not afraid to point out other’s faults. She can be rude and critical but that doesn’t mean she is heartless. Perhaps it is her affinity with machines that makes her a little awkward when interacting with people but is certainly trustworthy and will never back down from a promise.

She considers her magical girl activities to be more of a side job than anything else. Of course she won’t let the monsters have their way, but neither will she go out of her way just to take out some trash. As for the other magical girls, she can take em or leave em to be honest. She won’t refuse help or anything but unless there is a need for her help, she probably won’t bother to enter the fight.

History:
Bloodline was the name of the game that led a lesser force to make a contract with Suzie. Unknown to her, her grandmother had been a previous magical girl from a long line of magical girls. As a result of her heritage she had quite a lot of magical potential bubbling up in her veins which caught the eye of a certain lesser force.

A genius of all things mechanical, Suzie was always tinkering with things from a young age. Finding little of interest in more common fields of study, as soon as she graduated from high school she quickly went into auto mechanics and some engineering. However things got a little complicated when Metallion entered into a contract with her, granting her the body of a seven year old, though with quite a bit of muscle and volume. Her new body did give her some advantages, like being able to squeeze into spaces she couldn’t in her original body.
Thankfully her patron is rather good at making her magical girling pay well, either with cash or with various parts at discount prices. This means that her normal job as a mechanic is augmented by her patron who helps her out in exchange for fighting monsters.

Incantation:
“May a soul of steel guide my hands and protect my heart! Metallic Overdrive!”

Additional Info:
Suzie hates really sweet things, like she will not even touch milk chocolate.

Patron Metallion

Type: Lesser Force

Name: Metallion

Patron Benefits:
Supplier

Patron Drawbacks:
Limited
Alien Mind
Clueless
Loud

Personality:
Metallion is stubborn, hard headed, and will generally ignore anything that does not fit with what he wants. Like the metal he is associated with he has very little flexibility and believes he always knows what is best. This can become a bit of a problem considering he seems to lack any real information about the magical entities around him. Metallion acts like a head honcho, even though he is a mere lesser force, at least he is just smart enough to know when he is in trouble and goes too far, except in human matters.

History:
Metallion was a relatively minor player on the magical stage until he was lucky enough to gain his first employee, a magical girl. Things started to turn up for the lesser force who soon found that the city was a great place for displaying his powers over metal. His desires are a bit nebulous as he thinks very outside what humans would consider normal, but he seems to have high hopes that Suzie can help him achieve his goals.

Resources:
Currently there are two magical girls under his employee, his best being Suzie, and has actually started a business of his own. He runs a magical delivery business which can acquire some very hard to get items which proves very helpful for his employees which can benefit from his services as well as monetary payments. His inventory is quite expansive and seems to grow by the month.

Additional Info:
He seems to have a preoccupation with electronics and can often be caught testing out new equipment. Sometimes he will drain electronics of their energy in order to give himself a 'buzz'.

Erika Johnson *Ally*

Name: Erika Johnson

Age (Magical Girl): 16

Age (Before Magical Girl): 25

Gender: Female

Gender (Before Magical Girl): Female

Appearance:
5’4” Blonde and of average build.

Normal Appearance

Costume

Specialization:
Time

Weapon:
Fist

Power:
Killing Blow

Perks:
Wings
Sorcery
Monstrous Metamorphosis – Her hands turn into talons, her hair turns into white feathers, and gains tail feathers.

Patron: Metallion

Patron Benefits:
Focused – Easier to concentrate on magic and uses less mana per spell
Subtle – Harder to Sense by others

Patron Drawbacks:
None

Fighting Style:
Using the Sacred Time Fist style, Erika is able to ‘cut’ into time, allowing herself to react to most situations within ‘time’. For short periods of time she can cut her way into a slipstream of time, accelerating her own sense of time to gain ‘super’ speed and reaction speed. Using her enhanced time, she can slip in and out of combat quickly and strike assuredly. If she feels especially pressured she may also carve out a space bubble of about a meter in radius around herself which slows time down for all matter caught within except herself. The time bubble is quite taxing however so she tries to avoid using it if possible and can only be used for around 3 seconds.

Stats (Untransformed):
STR: 3
AGI: 4
VIT: 3
MAG: 4
LCK: 3

Stats (Transformed):
STR: 7
AGI: 6
VIT: 4
MAG: 10
LCK: 8

Personality:
Erika Johnson is a very bubbly kind of character. Erika likes life and wants to defend other’s lives with all her being. Some might consider her too happy, as she always has a smile on her face it seems. She is admittedly not exactly a deep thinker and can be somewhat superficial and shallow. She knows what she wants in life and lives accordingly, as a magical girl.

History:
Erika is a contract girl, she met Metallion about 6 months ago and jumped at the chance to fight. Becoming a magical girl was a dream come true for the young woman. Since Metallion could pay her to be a magical girl, Erika quickly went into it full time and has been quite active for a while.

She has an annoying habit of trying to get Suzie to join her on every mission and seems somewhat puzzled by how Suzie tends to shove it off to concentrate on her normal job. Erika takes every job she can get and has been gaining experience at a quick clip, but since she is not exactly a natural she has to work hard to improve. At the moment she has an apartment set up by Metallion in a high-rise complex.

Incantation: “I will show you the stars! Mahou Timeless Fist!”

Additional Info:
Erika loves parties, idols, and seems to always have a crush on the newest pop star on the scene, which can get old real fast.

@Shifter_Master

Nice list there. @Shifter_Master
It is really informative. =P

[canaryrose]

I was actually thinking about making a second character, perhaps serving a Horror. I'd probably roll between Puuchuu and Horror since we have few of those.

[Western Robot]

@IceHeart and @EnterTheHero, your characters are accepted.

@Landaus Five-One, very nice list. Seems like there is going to be quite a bit of conflict among the PCs. The NPCs will have to be a moderating influence.

I should get the first IC up either tonight or tomorrow morning. We'll be starting at the meeting in Penrose Park, but if you don't think your character should be in attendance you can start elsewhere in the city, or show your arrival to the city.

[EnterTheHero]

@Shifter_Master At first I was like, "Why wouldn't the Beacon be okay with Castor?" and then I thought about it and was like, "Right. Dog ears. Carry on."

@Western Robot Thank you, sir!

[Shifter_Master]

@EnterTheHero Yeha they have a similar issue with Penny, and reading about Lady Anri's lore it could possibly be Laat's fault that her home was destroyed.

[EnterTheHero]

@Shifter_Master Huh. I hadn't even considered that. *shrug* We'll see how it goes, I guess.

[Landaus Five-One]

I will be happy to see your post, @Western Robot
Mostly because I'll have to think where my character will start first...
Even though she does live outside of the city in a massive mansion-complex called the Grail Estates.

[Shifter_Master]

@EnterTheHero I'll leave it to your discretion, but I am up for the idea

[Rice Porridge]

<sub>I'm not sure if anyone's asked this yet, but how does the Beacon tell if someone's a monster or not?

Would they have to transform in front of one of their members
or can they "just tell"
(It'd help to know)</sub>

@Rice Porridge

They can tell if the monster girl transforms or has a noticeable aura. It's up to the player if the character would have an aura or not.

[Card Captor]

@Ariamis

Just had a look through of all the CS's, and I saw you Patron. FFX was the first RPG I ever played and is very near and dear to my heart. So I always love seeing references to it (although it seems like you're drawing from FFXIII a bit for Ixion's vehicle form)

[Rune_Alchemist]

@Western Robot

I imagine it'd be the same for someone like Chloe, who is a dark girl for the Mint, then?

If so, boy oh boy, she's gonna have so much fun messing with people since she's not gonna tell anything or use her gauntlets.

[EnterTheHero]

@Western Robot

In other words, Castor will stick out like a sore thumb...

[Landaus Five-One]

@EnterTheHero Lol, because of doggy ears. XP

[Flamelord]

I'm gonna have fun too. Remember, Alicia is Light specialized. I'll know when you're lying to me ;)

[Landaus Five-One]

I forgot about the Aura, I gave Fiona. It happens, but I looked it over and it's a purplish blue aura, which is highly powerful.

[EnterTheHero]

@Landaus Five-One That, and because one of Castor's Perks is Powerful Aura.
