Summoning magic is the magic of witches. That's some real sketchy shit right there, considering how inhuman she is and the whole 'everybody hates Talze Utera' thing.

Martial Arts Mastery, at least your description of it, doesn't make much sense at all. What need does a spirit have for physical arts? And no, expert swords(wo)men would be able to keep up with her, most with relative ease. Talentium's a hell of a drug.

I'm reasonably pensive about having a talentium body...but I'll let it pass for now. Note that as a golem and as a being that is magically bonded to her body, the moment someone pulls out an anti-magic ability or undoes the magic that sustains her, she's pretty much screwed.

Why do golems have night vision? That sounds really random compared to everything else. Should also note that she'd have no sense of smell, taste, or touch.

Also note that, being made out of Talentium and all that would mean that she's a giant chunk of cash-money. There'd probably be a whole bunch of people who'd be interested in literally pulling her apart and selling her pieces off.

@ERode Well, can't say I'm really the happiest right now, but.. since this is your baby, you're very picky, and tore apart my idea pretty much - as well as you don't know me from the next door neighbor - I'd say it's safe that I'm already not fitting in here. Just on the off chance I did so by mistake, this is by no means an attack on you, your character, or your role-play... just having a really bad day so it might be coming across. Anywho, it was worth a try. Thanks for reading it over in either case.

Yeah, I am relatively picky, but the information that I pointed out in regards to summoning magic and Talentium being expensive should have been obvious through all the information in the first post.

That being said, I didn't tear your idea apart. Actually didn't mind it too much, just that you seemed to have not considered things that should have been considered with such a character. The more outlandish a character concept is, the more questions and rulings I'd have in regards to it.

If you don't feel like you fit in or don't feel like making changes though, that's also fair. Have a good night's rest and hopefully you have a less shitty day tomorrow.

@ERode Yeah, you're right, but for the first time in a long while.. I feel at a loss. As in, I don't know how to make the concept work anymore and I'd rather step out than trash the idea all together. Regardless its probably because I'm distracted that I missed those major points.

Name: Lillet Duchamps (nee Lillet Blanc)
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Nation: Illiserev
Appearance: Lillet stands at average height, and has a slight build that tends to hide her true strength. She dresses like most girls, and seems to lean more toward clothing lacking ostentatious accents. Some would scoff at such preferences as a sign of her humble birth. She would ignore them. She tries to avoid full-length dresses, as they can get in the way when it comes to martial arts.
Personality:
Lillet is warm, friendly, and usually pretty well behaved. In battle, she is passionate and hot-blooded, and tends to really go all-out on her kiai. In no way is she afraid to take risks and bet everything on slim chances, intending to make up the rest on sheer guts. She’s a careful student of history, and is particularly interested in the origins of the Gods of War, and other such ancient mysteries.

She’s jealous and somewhat distrustful of all these Talentium-wielding wannabe “God-breakers” running around. Sure, they’re powerful, but the attitude they can have toward Gods of War can get infuriating at times. The ancient colossi may not be as effective against Rift beasts, but there’s no need to call them obsolete, or behave as if one is inherently superior. Then again, anyone who gets too cocky about taking on a giant mecha solo may have another thing coming. She may be suffering a bit from being an old "elite" faced with changing times, or simply influenced by the stereotypes carried by those around her a bit too much.

Lillet is terrified of vampires. She also dislikes spiders, centipedes, and other creepy things with too many legs. Otherwise, she fears very little. Mundane threats such as assassination or Rift beasts are challenges to overcome.

Biography:

  • Born into a family of maids serving the Duchamps family.
  • Chosen by her God of War at a young age. Adopted into the family and began formal training.
  • Formally inducted into the military at age 15. More courtesy than anything.
  • In peacetime, she's accomplished more by leading and organizing archaeological expeditions than she has on the battlefield.

Abilities:
Chosen of the God of War Azure Aeon

Lillet is not particularly talented as a mage, and her abilities are primarily focused into spells designed to enhance herself or her God. Rather than annihilate the battlefield with long-incantation destruction magic cast from impunity aboard a colossal robot, she focuses on physical enhancement, elemental auras, and other spells which allow her and Aeon to more easily cut a swath of destruction through the battlefield, personally. The effects she can achieve may pale in comparison to those of Talentium wielders, but they do keep her from falling behind quite as badly. She also has something of a knack for healing magic, although she usually only heals herself. She can heal others by laying on hands, but she can’t manage anything useful at ranges beyond touch.

Fist of the Six Heavens - Lillet is trained in a martial arts style that has been passed down along with her God of War. True, it lacks the power of modern Sword Arts, but it is unusual in purpose all the same: it is designed specifically for use with and by a God of War. Aeon’s weapon itself has been lost for generations, and the Six Heavens represent its current unique armament.

Alone, Lillet's techniques are useful enough to handle combat against a few opponents, although she's no match for anyone wielding Talentium, even fighting at her best. Unless she manages to disarm or evade such a foe, she would be overwhelmed, quite possibly sooner rather than later. The true strength of her art comes from the fact that it treats Aeon as an extension of her body. She generally doesn't fight with it while still on the ground, to avoid squashing herself.

Important Items:
Azure Aeon
A blue-armored God of War which leans more toward speed and agility than raw physical power. Aeon, as Lillet usually calls it, has a long and battle-scarred history, like all such ancient war machines. Its original weapon is lost to the sands of time, although Duchamps family history has it that one of the other nations possesses it as spoils of war. For the past several generations, Aeon has fought unarmed, using techniques that are quite similar to those used in unarmed combat across Illiserev. One hasn't lived before one has seen a giant robot throw another giant robot across a battlefield.

Aeon is maintained by a dedicated staff of maids-turned-mechanics, who are very proud of their work, and that one of their own is its current Chosen.

If you have received a mention in the OOC, you're in. If not, I'll keep those characters as reserves if the RP opens up once more.

Harder than I expected, cause there were a whole bunch of interesting concepts being tossed around.
