[b][center]Character List[/center][/b] [img]http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/1461/zdj2.png[/img] [hider=Dark Revenger Knight] [b]Real Life Name:[/b] Hunter Crux [b]Soul Story User Name:[/b] Ares [b]Age:[/b] 21 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Weapon:[/b] Great Lance [b]Weapon Name:[/b] Soul Eater [b]Class:[/b] Dark Knight - A heavy htting knight that includes dark magic in his arsenal. Its greatest fault lies in its defensive capabilities. They go in hard and fast, are great for initiating assaults but require backup to remain alive. [b]Level:[/b] 3 Soul Attack:[/b] The Thousand War Ender - A fury of blows charged with dark energy that maul the opponent (Use of Soul Attacks will have some interesting consequences...) [b]Move Pool:[/b] [b]Magic[/b] [u]Dark Wave[/u] - A slash that exerts one wave of dark energy. Cost [20SP] [u]Berserk Thrust[/u]- Soul Eater becomes engulfed in crimson rage and releases a staggering thrust. Cost [40SP] [b]Melee[/b] [u]Earth Breaker[/u] - User takes to the sky and thrusts his weapon downward. [u]Triple Thrust[/u] - A series of thrusts that aim for specific points of reference. [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] (The game replicates actual physical appearance via a set of polygons that essentially recreates your image virtually and other gibberish that we won't bother going into) Towering at 6'1'', Hunter sports a hazelnut faux-hawk that drops down along the contour of the neck and down the forehead, on opposite side, to the tip of his Greek-esque nose. He has thick, well-kept eyebrows and his sideburns arch around the temple before sliding down to perfect peaks along his jawline. His intense, emerald-struck eyes contrast with his pale skin tone and his shoulders amount for his most impressive feature. While not heavily built or overly muscular, Hunter is toned. As part of his in-game ensemble, Hunter wears a wine-red cloak; the hood usually hangs at eye level just enough to allow him visibility of his surroundings but also enough to conceal the greater part of his expression. He wears a silver chest-plate with gold edges around the waist level and around the shoulder slots. The gauntlets protecting his arm are made of the same black, stainless steel as his leg armor. The shoe piece peaks into a lethal point on each foot and along the shin up to the knee and beyond, metal layers stack. [b]Personality:[/b] Hunter likes to keep to himself by choice but doesn't mean he won't occasionally join in on conversation. He's intrusive when it comes to taking action but has deep regrets. He isn't known for being the smartest person and if grades are any indication of such, he isn't the most studious but he is street smart. An avid MMO player, Hunter has a reputation of playing solo but will once in a while play with others; this attribute mirrors his real life personality. He doesn't have many friends but care deeply for those that are in that list. One of his notable strengths is his incredible ability to push forward under great levels of pressure and one of his most unforgiving weaknesses is his blunt attitude toward the unknown. He can act (and probably will) without due consideration which, in the past, has lead to undesirable outcomes and has landed him in tight spots. At first glance and certainly when you first meet him, it would appear that he has an attitude problem or a rainy cloud constantly over his shoulder and this is because he does. He's impatient, hates flying and is easily annoyed by certain types of personalities. By all means a reserved person, Hunter doesn't easily trust others but is known to have fallen for the wrong people in the past which is why for the time being he's kept away from relationships. Lastly, Hunter is by no means an expert at MMOs but he learns quickly and enjoys the competitive scene.[/hider] [img]http://imageshack.us/a/img819/9689/08y6.png[/img] [hider=DragonBeastMode] [b]Real Life Name:[/b] Valentine George Valentino [b]Soul Story Name:[/b] Sir Valentine [b]Age:[/b] 18 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Weapon:[/b] Twin Blades [b]Weapon Name:[/b] Lust & Hate [b]Class:[/b] [i]Blade Dancer[/i]- The highly unique aoe class of Soul Story Online. It's skills are unmatched when it comes to attacking multiple foes at once. If you have a Blade Dancer in your group you are sure to come out victorious. The Blade Dancer has a unique set of skills, they help buffs their friends and debuff their foes.(Like Sunflower Victory it brings up the Blade Dancer's and their teammates ATK and DEF by 10% for 20 mins.) A Blade Dancer can be a support class or the lead class depending on the situation. A Blade Dancer's motto "I Will Fight And Conquer All Enemies That Stand In My Way," they will never back down until the last foe is gone and dead. [b]Level:[/b]2 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] "Petals In The Wind."- DoT Attack/ The user spins around in a giant circle surrounded by blood red rose petals, that attaches to the user's enemies and over time paralyzes them and kills them. [b]Move Pool[/b] Melee Massacre Tornado: Blade Dancer slashes around with his twin blades attacking all enemies in his way. Magic Dance Of Illusion: Blade Dancer Uses his dance move to confused his foes and let his team attack the foe without getting hurt. (Puts a confused debuff on the foe).[40sp] Petal To The Metal: Blade Dancer uses his twin blades to shoot metal roses out of them and slice his foes. [20sp] Pump It Up: Blade Dancer does a spiritual dance that recharges his allies sp by 50 points, (the cool down for the move is 3 mins)[50sp] [b]Avatar Appearance: [/b] In real life Valentine is 6' 2" and he has green eyes, glasses and a tribal tattoo on his face and upper body. He loves the color red since it represents his name and favorite holiday Valentine. In the game his avatar Sir Valentine has chain red pants to keep the Blade Dancer balanced with using skills, Twins blades called Lust & Hate, and red magic boots to give his skills a little more kick (pun intended). Valentine didn't want his avatar to have a shirt to show off his tribal tattoos. They are meaningful to him, they represent his family, his courage, and his will power. [b]Personality:[/b] Valentine is a free thinking, free spirit type of guy, he loves to have fun and be social. His only weakness is; sometimes he is to loyal to the wrong people. Being that loyal can get you hurt, most of the time Valentine does get hurt. But he keeps moving forward that's what makes him so strong of a person. Valentine loves to be the aoe guy in games, it's way better to take out 10 foes at once instead of one at a time. If your a good friend to Valentine he will be a great friend to you. [b]Bio:[/b]The day Valentine started playing Soul was the day he found the game he was meant to play. Valentine was the Class Clown in school and this game made him fill like he was important, Soul is a place he could get away from all the troubles in his real life and have a parallel world. Valentine just never expected to be stuck in the game. [/hider] [hider=deadpixel101] [b]Real Life Name:[/b] Gabriel T. Serapheine [b]Soul Story Name:[/b] Moon234 (Moon was taken) [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Weapon:[/b] Moon uses a wand, not only is it used to cast spells, it connects with a NPC he controls to attack for him. The NPC looks like the the top half of a clockwork man, it's face a smooth rounded surface with a glowing (blue) crescent insignia. [b]Weapon Name:[/b] Wand: Moon finger NPC: Artemis [b]Class:[/b] Moon waltzer. A hybrid class that centers nearly all around magic, the user controls a separate entity to attack enemies from a distance, it has the ability to take damage, but cannot die, only go out of commission temporarily. If damaged it needs SP to repair. Moon waltzer is an odd class that delves into both major form of magic, healing and destructive. This being said they are not half as effective in either as primary casters or healers are. The actual player casts healing spells with their wand and they use the familiar to cast offensive spells. There is a max distance the two can be for attack spells to be cast [b]Level:[/b]2 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Deus EX Machina: The player and familiar both emanate a different aura, the NPC's causes decent magic damage, and the human's heals a decent amount. [b]Move Pool[/b] Melee: Lunar pierce: Artemis charges forward a small distance, damaging and pulling along enemies with "him" [30 sp] Waltz: Artemis releases a flurry of small hits, damaging and debuffing the enemy defensively a tiny amount for a very short time. [40 sp] Magic: Guiding light: The player creates an orb around them, blocking enemy attacks. (it has enough room for three people) [40 sp] Moonlight: The player heals an ally a menial amount. (can be used on Artemis unlike all other healing abilities) [25 sp] [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] Gabriel looks just as confusing in the game as he does in real life. He has a slender figure and pale skin, his eyes are large blue crystals and his eyelashes are long. He has straw gold hair that is tied back in along ponytail down to his waist. He stands to roughly 5'0 and is petite overall. His nose is sharp and his face is heart shaped. He had taken to female equipment (he feels more comfortable that way) of a white gown with long heavy sleeves, and tall boots of a matching blank colour. His tunic comes long and looks nearly like a skirt. A frill comes out from under it and that serves to cover him instead of pants. His in game model has elfish styled ears.

They use a coin to toss for outcomes, on side leading to a positive outcome, another side for a not so positive outcome. They would mainly be counted as caster/support classes and focus on aiding allies or making it seem like they are doing so. Deception is a must with them. One example for reference of spell is Play dead If they win the toss, they get a fake amount of health, it takes the damage and makes it seem like they are being hurt, but aren't, and if they lose the toss, they take double damage for a short time. They would have some soft hitting no risk attack moves like normal classes but everything else is a gamble with them. [b]Level:[/b]2 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Two to every deck... A fake copy of the caster is created, both look the exact same, they can both cast spells (costs real mana), if the fake is killed it explodes dealing decent damage. The fake is dies if the real one does. [b]Move Pool[/b] Melee- Bet low: a series of quick and short stabs, simple and to the point Magic- Mirror on the wall: Positive flip: The selected ally become invisible, any enemy sees a reflection of what is behind them instead. the mirror can take minimal damage before breaking. Negative flip: The caster is unable to see enemies for a short while. [30 sp] Call it: Positive flip: The enemy takes damage based on casters luck stat. Negative flip: User takes damage based on their luck stat. [20 sp] Jig: Positive flip: Up to three allies are buffed with bonus defense and luck. Negative flip: The caster is debuffed defensively and silenced for a short while [30 sp] [b]Avatar Appearance: [/b] [img]http://i.imgur.com/cY3Ak6j.jpg[/img] Sick looks like her does in real like, a thin and tall pale boy, with black hair down to his earlobes, and thin framed glasses sitting on his nose. He has deep dark blue eyes that sometimes seem distant, and a sharp pointed jaw line. He has a distinctive nose and elongated eyes. His shoulders aren't too broad and his arms/legs are long. He wears leather armor, with minimal steel plating, the most armored spot being his left arm, which has an ornate gauntlet on it. He wears a black and red checkered scarf and has a distinctively large coin pouch. [b]Personality:[/b]Despite his class he is actually a relatively honest person. He doesn't play trick on people and doesn't steal anything. He is talkative, but only in the game world. When he was in real life he was shy and uncommunicative. He is kind to people, well, he is polite at least, he doesn't go out of his way to be good or bad and is mostly a chaotic neutral. In battle is when his class matches him. He likes to play mind games with enemies and enjoys making his allies think as well. He would never risk more than his own life, but is always fighting temptation to do such things. Bio: Vick is/was a normal boy, he lived in a upper middle class house with his mother, his father who works far away as a factory manager talks to them both often over phone but they are still a tad unattached. He got good grades in school and made few but good friends, he keeps mostly to himself and lived uneventfully until now. He is a normal person who wanted a little adventure, and may be changing now because of it.

They are good and evil, depending on their mood at th time. They can use powerful fire and darkness based attacks as well as fight with multiple weapons. They are good at offensive strategics, but aren't too good with defensive strategics. They feed off of the bad emotions and covert them into dark energy which they use in battle. They are terrible at dealing with holy magic ((since they are spawned from darkness)) and the cold as their bodies are heated to a very high temperature. They are also not good with dealing with their anger, which rage can make them more powerful but they do not think their attacks through which can hurt them very badly.~ [b]Level:[/b]2 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Destroyer of Light ~User is enveloped in a blaze of black flames, and all light around users body is converted into dark energy. They use this energy to summon the souls of those who have passed away in this world already to attack the enemy, until all enemy's have been badly injured. Then they will use a weapon for the finishing blow.~ [b]Move Pool[/b] Melee~ Demon Claw: Base claw attack, user charges opponent for a basic series of slashes. Magic~ Silent Scream: User gives a shout that has a chance of staggering lesser or similar leveled opponents. [30SP] Fireshout: User gives a fiery shout consisting of a lesser fire ball. [60SP] Demon Gaze: Has a chance of inflicting a status condition on the opponent - temporary daze. [35SP] [b]Avatar Appearance: [/b] (See above) [b]Personality:[/b] Aurora Nightingale is your average showgirl; Talented at what she does ((dance)), is happy most of the time, and is perfectly okay with her body which attracts many men left and right. She is a soft spoken person and doesn't get angry too easily. Now Lilith on the other hand, is Aurora's other half; She is talented in her own special way ((murder and death)), she uses seduction to get what she wants, she gets angry easily, and she isn't very nice at times. But what is the same between each other is that they hide their true selves deep down inside; Aurora her dark side and Lilith her light side. Each can be unlocked in certain ways, but there are obstacles that will make it take a while for the true sides to unlock. And even then, there is no promise that they won't both will lock everything back up and pretend that nothing happened.

They are skilled archers and their wood crafts are sought after by many. They care deeply for nature, believing in a creation myth that explains that their race was born from the roots of ancient oak trees, and will go to great lengths to protect the environment. Although skilled in ranged combat and blessed with high intelligence and speed, wood elves generally have low defense and do poorly in hand-to-hand combat. [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Soul Bind - the player shoots super-charged arrows that become entangled in vines, wrapping around and constricting her targets upon contact. [b]Move Pool[/b] Melee Rapid fire - the player rapidly fires arrows from her bow, the speed of the attack often confuses and stuns the opponent and deals considerable damage Sky shot - the player fires an arrow straight into the air, the arrow hones in on the nearest target, shooting straight down at them from above Magic Stealth - the player summons branches and vines from nearby trees to disguise herself from nearby threats [SP: 15] Healing - a weak healing spell in which the player can drain energy from tree roots [SP: 30] [b]Avatar Appearance: [/b] Like most wood elves, Aspin is quite tall, measuring around 6 feet tall. Her features are slim, besides her face which is rather round, giving her a youthful appearance. Her skin is light brown, and her eyes are a shocking green. Her hair is extremely long and bright, lime green. She adorns the typical armor of a wood elf: lightweight clothes that allow her to move nimbly from tree to tree. [b]Personality:[/b] In real life, Brynn is the quiet, nerdy type. She spends most of her time studying and reading books for pleasure. She's quite shy and exhibits some signs of social anxiety, becoming uncomfortable in large groups. Most people would describe her as intense, and even scary at times when she gets really into something. She is extremely committed to her goals, and will let little get in her way. In the game, Brynn is less shy because she feels like she can be someone else, a nimble and powerful wood elf. She is very clever and resourceful in difficult situations. She sometimes comes off as somewhat of a know-it-all, and can be very stubborn, insisting that her way is the right way. However, she is a truly lonely person, so she is making efforts to reach out to others through the game and befriend them. [/hider] [img]http://imageshack.us/a/img856/1408/9vwl.png[/img] [hider=Silver Fox] [b]Real Life Name:[/b] Ash Ross [b]Soul Story Name:[/b] Prince [b]Age:[/b] 20 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Weapon:[/b] Dual Swords [b]Weapon Name:[/b] Musketeers [b]Class:[/b] Buccaneer - A class that is the master at using dual weapons and dealing fast attacks. They have excellent speed and evasion, able to hit and dodge their opponents with ease, making them a difficult and annoying opponent. However, they lack defense and can't take hits very well so it is better if they don't fight against groups, especially if they are on their own. Their attack power is mediocre but their fast rapid strikes add up into powerful blows. They quite of bit of luck and thievery skills on their side as well. [b]Level:[/b]3 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Silver Flash - Rapidly slashes multiple opponents in a fury of silver streaks in sheer speed and power. [b]Move Pool[/b] Serpent Strike- Two strikes against the opponent with the left weapon moving down then the right swinging up in a fluid motion. Lucky Dice- Roll a dice to get a special temporary boost that lasts for a little bit of time. Possibly boosts attack, defense, or speed. But also has the chance to boost the opponents!(10 SP) Ensnare- Throws a magical rope that tangles itself around a opponent, slowing the enemy for quite a bit of time. Has the possibility of paralyzing the opponent.15 SP) Piercing Marlin- Holds twin weapons close together and makes a quick and powerful lunge to the opponent. Has a chance for critical hits. (15 SP) [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] Short red messy hair with bright catlike teal eyes. He stands around 6'5 and has a lean toned build. Wears a red open coat that shows his bare torso, revealing a X shaped scar on his chest. Wearing a red raggedy scarf around the throat as well as a darker red hat with a gold feather, his right eye is covered in a black eyepatch. Wearing dark navy pants with gold trimmings. He often has a pet companion of a white little wolf pup, though it does nothing special other than keep him company. Has furry long pointed ears and a red cat tail. [b]Personality:[/b] In reality, Ash is a girl whom grew up a only child and lived mostly alone under strict house rules. She had a hard time interacting with people, afraid she would say something wrong. When she discovered MMO gaming however, she decided to use it to outlet her real personality or what she wished to be. Prince is outgoing and cheerful, always having a smile on and eagerly butting into people's business at random points in time. He can sometimes be a bit overbearing, but he mostly only tries to bring a laugh to others and cheer them up when they are down, in whatever means he can think of. One of which is being a hopeless flirt. Doesn't matter what gender someone is, or what.. Be it man, woman, beastman, whatever, he will occasionally flirt with them (especially when first meeting someone) and feign dramatic antics whenever they reject him. He acts childish, and not like he takes anything seriously and more or less looks for ways to have a good time. Even in battle. Despite his odd attitude, he is generally friendly and good hearted, always willing to help others with what they need. Though he worries more for others then himself, and tends to unintentionally forget things to care for himself. So sometimes he will pass out from lack of food or sleep. He tends to whine and complain when he wants something, or run off when he sees something he likes. Another childish factor. Being a woman all of his life in the real world, he pretty much lacks full knowledge on guy things now that he is trapped in a realistic virtual reality, causing some minor trouble. [/hider] [url=http://tektek.org/av/874531][img]http://imageshack.us/a/img841/6527/bvjy.png[/img][/url] [hider=The Wanderer] [b]Real Life Name:[/b] Jeremy Westman [b]Soul Story Name:[/b] Wandering Fool [b]Age:[/b] 19 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Weapon:[/b] Throwing Dagger [b]Weapon Name:[/b] Shadow Slayers [img]http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111217104322/assassinscreed/images/7/7e/Macedonian_Dagger.png[/img] (This is actually a set of ten blades.) [b]Class:[/b] Knife Thrower- A fast and light weight mid-range class capable of heavy hitting ranged attacks that break down health rapidly so long as hits land. The knife thrower is best when faced with slow enemies that cannot keep up with his agility. His weakness is fast melee classes. [b]Level:[/b]3 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] The Dark Destroyer - User unleashes all non-magical abilities at the same time, with increased rate of fire, speed, or accuracy, dependent on abilities focus. At the activation and deactivation of this soul attack, all throwing blades return to their sheathes. [b]Move Pool[/b] [b]Magic[/b] [u]Bound Blades[/u] - All [i]Shadow Slayers[/i] teleport into their sheathes. Cost [10SP] [b]Ranged[/b] [u]Dead Eye[/u] - User throws a projectile with perfect accuracy, up to thirty feet away. (Cannot be used more than once a post.) [u]Darkness Slayer[/u] - User throws every projectile on his person rapidly, but with suffering accuracy, so best used in just one direction. (Cannot be used more than once every two posts.) [b]Melee[/b] [u]Avoidance[/u] - The user uses acrobatics and speed to dodge predictable/slower attacks. [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] Wandering stands at just 6’ even, with hair cut roughly to leave it at a mid length, not long enough to fall onto his shoulders, but long enough to cover most of his ears if he tried. His skin is clear and an even, regular tone, leaning towards the pale side, while Wandering’s eyes are an emerald green color that compliments the roundness of his face. One particular point of pride is his teeth- white as can be. A constant grin reflects his playful personality. (And if he isn’t smiling, you probably shouldn’t be either, for one reason or another.) Wandering’s body type lends itself to a runners build, fit, but lean more than muscular. He favors light weight gear over armor, with the preference to [i]avoid[/i] being hit, rather than to withstand it. As such, Conrad’s common equip is a black tuxedo and cloak, each with plenty of places to sheath his throwing knives. The hat he simply saw as necessity when choosing his gear. One must have headgear, no matter how low armor value it provides. An empty equip slot is a sad one. As for his gloves, they are made of a supple but strong black leather, made to protect his hands from holding his blades while allowing his fingers free movement, perfect for throwing. The shoes he chose are a soft black leather boot set, designed for minimum restriction when climbing, or just running for ones dear life. [b]Personality:[/b] Jeremy is a loner, but an avid gamer. His fitness comes from his mother forcing him to run cross-country year after year in highschool, but aside from that nuisance his socialization for the month normally comes from weekly church attendance. This said, at school he had taken the aloof and solitary road rather than be put with the other computer addicts. Aside from gaming and forum surfing Jeremy enjoys practicing card tricks and sleight-of-hand when bored, which had gained him a reputation as a trickster in class, as well as a record with the principle. His general personality in the online world is playful and slightly cocky, having been around so long Jeremy found that in a place where anyone was capable of being anyone, he could just let loose. Quick to joke, and quicker to pickpocket generally can leave him in sticky situations in most games. What truly attracted him to SSO was how interactive it was, allowing him enough free movement to perform his tricks even ingame! While a joker usually, clouds can roll in fast if he is under stress, or trying to make a hard decision. From smiling and backslapping one moment to cutthroat anger the next, Jeremy’s mood normally ranges from one to another with little in between when put under such pressures. This does not extend to lesser irritations though, just heavy life/death choices. He can take a joke like anyone, and would ride along with it easily. Trust aren’t what you would expect from him, but Jeremy has been a loner for a long time. Any friend is a close one, but everyone else is suspect. You wouldn’t notice this outwardly unless you were particularly observant, due to his joking attitude, but closer inspection would show that he has trouble putting his life in another's hands. This can be reflected in his reluctance to party with others, despite possibly traveling or even fighting with them. As for sadness, Jeremy takes grief the hard way, by becoming hardened himself. When saddened his personality goes cold, and lacks self preservation. It takes a good friend and some restraining to repair this kind of damage.[/hider] [img]http://i.imgur.com/qPrk5Vv.png[/img] [hider=Shiinen] [b]Real Life Name:[/b] Eika Munashii [b]Soul Story Name:[/b] The Imagineer [b]Age:[/b] 19 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Weapon:[/b] Oversized Knife [b]Weapon Name:[/b] Kill The Queen [b]Class:[/b] [i]Mastermind[/i] - A being that has learned to take the limits of their mind and break them in order to create supernatural phenomenon around them. Instead of using Mana or Energy, Masterminds use their own Sanity to fuel their abilities in combat. While good in initial fights, their minds will degrade as time goes on, placing them in a "Sanity Break" status if their Sanity Meter hits below 20% of their maximum and rendering them in a "magical berserk" state in which they will begin using their own HP to fuel their abilities at the benefit of abilities doing x1.5 the amount of damage. Alternatively, their SP will begin to regenerate 5% of their maximum SP for every turn that they do not use an ability that costs SP. Their weapons function off of their Intelligence rather than Strength, but are usually used for the purpose of channeling trinkets rather than fighting -- hence the excessive amounts of adornment that a traditional Mastermind weapon sports as they grow in power. The Imagineer begins with 150 SP at level 1, and gains 50 SP every fifth and tenth level. [b]Level:[/b]3 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Doomsday - The Imagineer uses up as much of her Sanity as possible until she reaches a Sanity Break in order to create pillars around her created of an unrecognizable energy (non-elemental). As the pillars brings targets closer to Imagineer, she charges up her own body and fires an energy beam downwards followed by a punch to the pillars and causes them to form a tornado around her. [b]Move Pool[/b] - Black Thought: Sanity is drained in order to create negative energy that backlashes at an opponent and inflicts a random status ailment. (The status ailment will up to the GM, and instances such as Death or Doom are not capable of being inflicted.) SP Cost: 30 Type: Magical - White Vision: By converting her Sanity into white particles, The Imagineer places positive energy into her own body, casting Haste and Regen (allows her to gain 5% of her maximum health every post.) upon herself. SP Cost: 50 Type: Magical - Breakdown: Using Sanity in an unstable manner, The Imagineer lets out a shriek that causes all those around who hear to become inflicted with Stop if their agility is not as high as hers (functions off of base stat, includes bonuses from items and armor, excludes bonuses from spells.) SP Cost: 40 Type: Magical - Insomnia: By channeling her Sanity into a trick of the eyes, enemies are inflicted with Sleep -- or begin to receive damage over time if they are not inflicted with the status ailment for three turns. SP Cost: 40 Type: Magical [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] [img]http://oi44.tinypic.com/33n9nuv.jpg[/img] The Imagineer -- "Imagine" for short, stands at 5'7'', weight seemingly irrelevant for the sake of game logic not giving a flying fuck, and is rather pale in comparison to most. Her frame is lithe, giving her the frame to run around and dodge hits but not quite the type to take too may hits on her own. Her hair -- long as it is -- is a pure onyx that brushes just past her waist while violet orbs fluctuate as a part of the game's mechanic in trying to make things "flashy". Her wear consists of a black mini-dress with matching stockings that lay underneath a white jacket decorated with black straps and leather over parts of the arms. Her shoes are heeled, bumping her height up by a few inches, and have decorations on the sides that make it seem as if they have "golden wings"on them as she walks or run. [b]Personality:[/b] Quiet. Cynical. Negative. All traits that could describe her well. Eika is a rather...well, the word downer could do it well. She sees the consequences of things, rather than the rewards that could be gained, and points them out without hesitation when things are about to go down. Beyond that, she is stubborn in her personality, making it a little hard to change her mind on things that might be needed to be changed in order to ensure that she'll give her 100% on it. But, it could also be said that because of this stubborn side, that she just DOES NOT STOP when she starts. Not even when her life is in danger. So yes, she could be seen as deathseeker in gaming terms, going straight for the mobs if she's been convinced into it, or staying right on out while everyone else gets massacred. But she isn't ALL bad. She likes fluffy things. She's still capable of getting shy around people that mess up her way of living -- you know, those overly social people. She's as much the cool, collected woman as she is the inner kid keeping her distance from all of the big, serious adults in a sense. Contradicting? Oh, absolutely. But she's a contradiction within herself as a whole. Thusly, expect her to be the first to jump on a chance to ride a giant yellow chicken around if they give her the option. She won't say it...But new updates and games are what she loves the most.

They are only capable of hitting with their own bodies, using a variation of martial arts to attack. This Includes some special martial arts moves only usable by Monks. [b]Level:[/b]2 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Quivering Palm – The Monk places his palm upon an enemy, a seal is placed upon them until such time as the Monk chooses to activate it whereupon it does massive amounts of damage to the opponent most of the time killing the opponent instantly afterwards the seal disappears. (No more than one seal can be placed at once. This particular soul attack cannot be used on other players.) [b]Move Pool[/b] Stunning Fist: The user's accuracy increases, allowing the user to target specific pressure points on their enemy, while this ability does NO damage, it has a large chance to paralyze the users opponent. The chance and duration of paralysis depends on the opponents level in relation to the users. Elemental Fist: The user infuses the power of one of the elements to their attacks, however, this ability can only remain active for short periods of time and requires a large amount of stamina to maintain. Xenoko's element is the element of fire. Flurry of blows: The user's attack speed essentially doubles for a short period of time however their accuracy is reduced as well. It's not very effective against one opponent, however, when used against a large group it's effectiveness skyrockets. Lay on hands: The user whispers a prayer whilst moving their hands across wounds, although a slow process, it can heal even the most grievous of wounds. (20-50 SP depending on severity of the wound) [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] Xenoko Stands at about 5” 10’ He’s shorter than many other guys playing Soul Story Online, although he is much skinnier than many of the others, which is fitting because of his Class. His head is bald and he wears a set of jet black robes tied at the middle with an equally black belt. His hands and forearms are wrapped in white bandages which can be seen all the way up the sleeves of his robes which end right at his wrists. He tends to walk around in his bare feet, although if he needs them, he has a set of wooden sandals. Their manly for things like snow, but he has them just in case. [b]Personality:[/b] Xenoko is a softie by nature, always willing to help out newer players to any game and willing to go that extra mile to make sure to set them straight before sending them on their way. However this generosity and kind nature (Although Genuine) Cover up the fact that Xenoko is a Pro Gamer MMO’s are his favorites by far. In fact, he’s played them so much, the ins and outs of this particular type of game come naturally to him, typically allowing him to solo things that are quite a bit higher level with MUCH less difficulty than the average gamer would. None the less, he’s more than happy to help out others, he’s just a bit shy and doesn’t like to boast that he gets to play video games for a living.[/hider] [url=http://tektek.org/av/911829][img]http://imagizer.imageshack.com/img673/3556/240da0.png[/img][/url] [hider=LupusIntus] [b]Real Life Name:[/b] Victoria Erickson [b]Soul Story Name:[/b] Rose [b]Age:[/b] 22 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Weapon:[/b] Bastard Sword and Shield [b]Weapon Name:[/b] Forgotten Fang and Primordial Aegis [b]Class:[/b] Dragoon - A mobile, yet highly defensive class that relies on a strong shield to block incoming attacks while retaliating with abilities that leave enemies burned with magic flames. This class is a strong defender of other classes, very resistant to ranged attacks, and can hold its own by whittling down enemy life-bars but struggles against very fast opponents or large groups of enemies as the Dragoon’s armor is significantly weaker on the sides and rear. This class is proficient in both sword and spear and can fight from the back of a mount. [b]Soul Attack:[/b] Aspect of Rage – The Dragoon is surrounded by the fiery spirit of an ancient dragon which burns all surrounding enemies for extremely high damage. [b]Move Pool[/b] [b]Magic[/b] [u]Line Breaker[/u] – With terrifying speed, the Dragoon charges forward with shield raised and knocks down the first enemies struck before delivering a vicious sword sweep that leaves a trail of burning flame. Cost 40SP [u]Challenging Roar[/u] – The Dragoon emits an earsplitting shout that taunts strong enemies into attacking them and freezes weak enemies with fear. Cost 20SP [b]Melee[/b] [u]Ancient Scales[/u] – The Dragoon raises her shield, significantly increasing her defense while lowering mobility, which then emits a gout of magic flames that burn enemies in front of her. [u]Ancient Claws[/u] – The Dragoon strikes twice in quick succession before slamming her shield forward in an attempt to knock the enemy off balance. [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] Victoria stands at an even 6’ and weighs roughly 160lbs. Her hair is a fiery red, cut short so that it falls just past her ears and it is never overly styled. Years of difficult sports training have left her limbs strong and limber: a versatile athletic build which she carries with comfortable ease. This manner of body language along with her elegantly sculpted features; a smooth jawline, gently sloping nose, slightly arched and well-manicured eyebrows, and a thin mouth; and striking green eyes gives her a positively regal aura which her mood of calm determination hardly dispels. She wears a set of steel half-plate armor, the metal dyed red with dull gold caps and highlights and the leather a dark earthen brown, over which is draped a tabard of black silk bearing a single gold cross. A thick hooded-cloak is hung over her shoulders, black with gold trimming. A large shield is carried on her left arm or strapped across her back, it’s black metal body adorned with an image of twisting thorny vines and a single blooming rose done in gold, and her other hand grips the hilt of a beautiful, though plain, silver bladed hand-and-a-half sword. [img]http://i904.photobucket.com/albums/ac245/LupusIntus/Roleplayer%20Guild/femalewarrior2_zps27a0a8b7.jpg[/img] [b]Personality:[/b] Victoria is often calm and collected, a natural leader who does everything she can to conquer problems with logic and precision. She has a very mature grasp on her emotions and will rarely be caught in an outburst, though this can sometimes leave an impression of coldness with those she’s just met. While often having responsibility thrust upon her, as opposed to taking it herself, she has grown very accustomed to being the one making suggestions in the social groups she spends time with and simply hates long instances of indecision. She is friendly and caring, highly protective of those she considers friends or comrades, but has a hard time opening up as it makes her feel like she’s relinquishing control. This can lead her to be burdened by many problems and responsibilities, even those that aren't her own, up to her breaking point. Victoria was never really interested in video-games before being trapped in Soul Story, she borrowed her younger brother's copy when she came home from university to visit, but has managed to throw herself in wholeheartedly and gaining a good understanding of the game mechanics after the initial shock passed. This does mean, however, that she is rather lacking on the finer points of social etiquette and gamer jargon often saturating gamer-culture. Nearly 15 years of intense basketball training and being a starter for one of the US's strongest women's basketball teams with very strong WMBA prospects has given her a very sharp mind and tactical insight that allows her to quickly analyze all sorts of enemies and battlefields.

[b]Weapon Name:[/b] Eon [b]Class:[/b] Summoner- A magic class that is able to summon different creatures. Some may be offensive to attack enemies, others are used as support for their allies. A powerful class but at the cost of needing a lot more magic then the other classes and also only having the summons to defend themselves. They themselves have no other reason to protect themselves. Summons take a bit of SP to summon, some even slowly draining SP as long as they are on the battlefield. Using their skills also costs the summoner SP. Once the summon is defeated or the user runs out of SP, they disappear. [b]Level:[/b] 1 Soul Attack:[/b] Behemoth's Hellfire- Summons Behemoth to rain down hell fire, turning the ground into molting lava around all enemies and rain down fireballs from a dark cloudy sky as Behemoth flies down and dives straight into the enemy. [b]Move Pool:[/b] [img]http://imageshack.us/a/img850/4300/blhg.png[/img] Behemoth- A powerful physical type summon but also costly. Most withhold using him at low levels because he devours SP. His element is fire, and each post costs some SP when he is out. But he is a powerhouse and can tank enemies as well as deal heavy damage if opponents get too close. (100 SP) Abilities: None [img]http://imageshack.us/a/img820/7241/eey2.png[/img] Nagi- A healing summon, he doesn't attack and take much hits but he is can heal allies quick and sufficient enough.A water element type.

Instead of relying on heavy armor or high health percentages to thwart enemy attack, this class instead pulls on its magical abilities for lasting strength. The result is a very resilient class that can take heavy punishment with ease, but is lacking in damage output as a result. As such, a Soul Wielder is incapable of facing harder enemies without outside support, or against large numbers of small enemies. While capable of possibly holding off such opponents for a respectable length of time, eventually loss of SP would render a Soul Wielder helpless. This class is a frontline support class. Base Stats- HP: 50% SP: 200% (5% SP regeneration per non-combatant post) [b]Level:[/b] 1 [b]Soul Attack:[/b] The damage and effects of all applicable abilities doubles, at the price of double the SP cost. (Abilities are [i]not[/i] doubled in regards to time active however, only in the base effects/damage.) Certain class abilities cannot be doubled, and therefore are exempt from this abilities effects: [i]Soul Shield, Soul Gravitation[/i]. [b]Move Pool:[/b] [u]Magic[/u] [u]Soul Shield[/u] ([i]Passive[/i]) - User counters attacks against their person with SP, with a percentage cost equal to what would have impacted the users health. This ability ceases to function when the user no longer has SP left. [u]Soul Punch[/u] - User transfers soul points into a strike, causing moderate damage between 6-10%, depending on enemy level and area struck. The result of the outburst of energy launches enemies a decent distance away from the user, with a minimum of ten feet for larger opponents. (Cost 5 SP) [u]Soul Warp[/u] - User speeds up their person, causing their perception and speed to be 2x that of others for a short period of time. (Cost 50 SP per round.) [u]Soul Gravitation[/u] - User is locked coordinately within the game, allowing the user to take on opponents without faltering. (Example, if tackled by a wolf, or clubbed by a troll, the user will not be flung about like a rag doll.) The added cost of this ability is that it amplifies any received attack damage by 1.5x. (Cost 20 SP per round.) [b]Avatar Appearance:[/b] [url=http://tektek.org/av/927701][img]http://imagizer.imageshack.com/img540/5421/71f3d0.png[/img][/url] [url=http://tektek.org/av/941027][img]http://imagizer.imageshack.com/img674/5325/cffb43.png[/img][/url] [b]Personality:[/b] Konrad possesses a strong personality, in both the strong and resilient way... And the childish way. If you were searching for him in a crowd, you would need only find the source of the commotion. Another good way to describe him is one who ‘wears his emotions on his sleeve.’Easily embarrassed, impulsive, and very forward- all traits that define Konrad’s character. At school he is characterized as foolish and comical, but anyone who knows him sees it at a deeper level. In his home life Konrad is a player of tactical games, RTS, TBS, and other strategy based online games, and is very good at them. Here is where you can glimpse his personality for what it is. Known as being slightly cheeky as a player, he has been known to turn on close allies when just at the edge of winning, or sending a group of men to their deaths on a whim. Despite this mentality he is feared in that realm of gaming, particularly in servers that he frequents. Konrad’s radical sense of strategy makes him impossible to predict as an opponent, and common battle strategy seems to fall apart. You place the back of your forces to a swamp, knowing that nothing strong enough to be a threat could make it through there, and focus on forward defense- only to find late game that he sent a troop of heavy infantry straight through it, despite the snail-speed movement and poor defense. Other times you send a massive force to take a fortified choke point, and find no one there to guard it. That said, his odd strategy isn’t really a winning one, his win/loss ratio is close to or at 1:1 in any game. Disregarding that, no player is sure how they will fare when facing him. It appears that more experienced players often have more struggle than newer players facing him. In short, Konrad is brilliant in combat sense and known for finding ingame bugs- simply because he tries things that no one has ever tried. At the same time, he is also known for being radical and impulsive in choice making, making him an awkward ally, from incredibly resourceful and dependable one moment, to falling apart at the next.[/hider]
