Scattered and with no interest in reconnecting, she settled comfortably into city life and embraces the night life of decrepit alleys and deserted streets readily. She's always one to have a blade close in hand and has found herself needing to use it on a daily basis, given her tendency to look for trouble just for the hell of it. A hint of blood thirst drives her actions yet it seems to do little to liven the expression of boredom upon her countenance, and very rarely does it abate. Her actions while violent are done with skill and succinct barbarism, the actions of one very comfortable with what they do and have not the slightest regret as they hone their talents. Despite her troubling predilections for enticing conflict as readily as she draws eyes with her suggestive attire, Leblanc was accepted into Cadenza, if only as a means to restrict the time she's prowling unsupervised. For obvious reasons she is withheld from being invited to any public functions or exhibitions. [/i][/color] [color=00FF75][b]Vessel:[/b][/color] [color=c0c0c0][i]Blunt and lacking much of anything in the way of sentimentality, Leblanc never named the braid of ebony silk that is the Vessel around her neck. When activated it is drawn out into a choke.[/i][/color] [color=00FF75][b]Abilities:[/b][/color] [color=c0c0c0][b]Conscious Control:[/b][i]Activating her Vessel confers Lablanc unparalleled control of her own body. The rate at which her heart beats, each dose of adrenaline, and the elasticity of her muscles are but a few aspects which Leblanc can manipulate as she sees fit, allowing for an impossibly fluid range of movement beyond the most advanced of contortionists as well as a wide range of benefits outside of combat.[/i][/color] [color=00FF75][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] [color=c0c0c0][b]Slasher's cutlery:[/b][i]A set of nine knives, eight of which are smaller throwing knives typically hurled or held between her fingers, while the ninth is a larger knife she keeps a firm hold of for slashing up close.[/i][/color] [color=c0c0c0][b]Whetstone.[/b][/color] [color=c0c0c0][b]Floral Extract:[/b] [i]A parting gift from her mother in a brief moment of sympathy, Leblanc dips the tips of her blades in the extract to provide them with a localized paralytic toxin which briefly deadens the nerves around the entry site.[/i][/color] [color=c0c0c0][b][url=http://imgur.com/HkK12mc]Spare Clothes[/url][/b][/color] [color=00FF75][b]Trivia:[/b][/color][color=c0c0c0][i]As her tattoos would suggest, Leblanc has a fondness for snakes and does indeed own one, but has since left it on the family farm for safekeeping. Additionally, the peculiar nickname of Lucky, or Better Lucky in even more peculiar circles, is of entirely unknown origin.[/i][/color] [/hider][/center] [@KoL] [/quote] Well, this character is alright. I don't know why, but I think I've seen her somewhere else, hehehe. [sub][sub]The multiverse paranoia rises.[/sub][/sub] [quote=@Ghost Queen] [@KoL] Did some minor changes all around. [hr] [hider=Dante Rosa][center][img]http://sm.ign.com/t/ign_ap/news/a/ask-platin/ask-platinumgames-anything-about-scalebound_zwyk.640.jpg[/img][/center] [color=FFB6C1]Name:[/color] [i]Dante Rosa[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Age:[/color] [i]19[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Height:[/color] [i]6'2 Ft. (Approx. 182 centimeters)[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Weight:[/color] [i]200 lbs. (Approx. 90 kilograms)[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Bio/Summary:[/color] [i]The Rosa's are a modest noble family that are well respected for their military service to the Empire, with many ancestors famous for their tactical acumen, combat prowess, and honorable conduct. Dante is the eldest son of the current generation of Rosa's, his upbringing being one of rigid discipline and schooling even before his abilities began to manifest shortly after his fifteenth year. Dante's abilities were met with with beaming pride and a joyous feast, his family taking his awakening powers as a good omen. Afterwards Dante was sent off to Cadenza Academy where he has since been working tirelessly to hold up the Rosa name. Dante himself is an honorable man, carrying himself with the dignity worthy of his station but with none of the arrogance. He is confident in his abilities but is always striving to better himself, believing that personal stagnation to be grievous flaw. Beyond structure and training however lies a fairly cool headed individual, very rarely prone to anger and generous with his time.[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Vessel:[/color] [i]Dante's Vessel is named Dominus and takes the form of an iron bracer when dormant. It is intricately carved to represent the Rosa coat of arms, a shield wrapped in rose vines with a spear and a sword crossed behind it. When activated Dominus takes on the form of an Arbalest, or an exceptionally large crossbow, that is equally carved with it's limbs reinforced with iron. The rose and it's vines are portrayed heavily in the carvings. While Dante's connection with Dominus makes drawing the bolts easier there is still a noticeable delay between shots, as is Dante can fire four bolts within a minute.[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Abilities:[/color] [i]Trick Bolts, magically enhanced bolts that Dante can fire off at will. As long as he has ammo he can cast them.[/i] [i]-Briar Bolt, when fired into the ground an area of about 10 feet is overrun with grasping briars that entangle and inconvenience foes. -Visceral Shot, as the bolt enters a target it becomes jagged and cruel in form, causing heavy bleeding and immense pain. -Brilliant Lance, a shining line of light that can pierce through several men, however it only has a range of six feet.[/i] [i]Ward, when in dormant form Dominus shields Dante's right forearm from harm and makes for an effective buckler.[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Equipment:[/color] [i]A simple rapier, a locked journal, and an ivory smoking pipe[/i] [color=FFB6C1]Trivia/Other:[/color] [i]Dante's smoking pipe is an heirloom from his grandmother, a wild woman who was infamous for her fighting spirit and larger than life charisma. He keeps it more as a keepsake as a student he hasn't been able to get his hands on much pipeweed. Dante is ambidextrous but has noticeable favorites when it comes to certain actions. When using Dominus he is noticable right handed, while using his left hand for swordsmanship. The man likes his tea.[/i][/hider] [/quote] Yours is good as well with those new changes. [quote=@Hammerman] [hider=Esther] [H2][CENTER]Esther von Degraff[/center][/h2] [hr] Name: Esther von Degraff Age: 14 years old Appearance: [img]http://i.imgur.com/Z8iC3nN.jpg[/img] Height = 160 centimeters Weight = 45 kilograms Bio/Summary: A young heiress of the Degraff noble family, she was pretty much raised by her stern grandfather for most of her life, as her mother perished when giving birth to her and her father soon followed afterward due to sickness. When her grandfather found out about her magic potential, he sent her to the Academy to bring glory to the Degraff name. Esther reluctantly agreed as she loved her grandpa and she didn't want to disappoint him, even though she felt she wasn't really suited to be a fighter. She is somewhat shy and dislikes fighting after all. Doesn't mean she will run away in combat though as she has the Degraff name to uphold. Vessel: Her vessel normally takes the form of the red high heeled slippers she wore. It could also turn into a pair of red knee-high boots to use its stronger, battle-fit abilities. Abilities: Her vessel's ability is basically to manipulate wind to her bidding. In slipper form, it uses the wind to enhance her mobility, allowing her to run at great speed and jump for a great height/distance. In boots form is where it truly shines in combat however, as it allows her to create a wind barrier that circles around her, protecting her from any attacks coming her way. If she were to stomp her foot, she could send a high pressure wind blade that will cut anything blocking its path. She can also choose to create smaller wind sickles that she could control. Equipment: Her favorite red dress and purple headdress. Trivia/Other: She is quite the terrible sleeper. She would mumble all sorts of things in her sleep and she would often wake up in the morning falling off her bed. [/hider] [@KoL] [/quote] As said on the interest check, she's fine as well. [quote=@Crimmy] [hider=Tzi Ti'amtum][center][img]http://i.imgur.com/M44hEBY.jpg[/img][/center] [b]Name:[/b] Tzi Ti'amtum [b]Age:[/b] 17 [b]Appearance:[/b] At a height of 200cm tall and incredibly muscular, it is pretty common to see Tzi shirtless when not in academy uniform, baring his body to the world. Shirts aren't really too important to him, so one has to remind him every time he forgets to wear one. It's a source of contention, but it's almost impossible to change his opinion on them. [b]Bio/Summary:[/b] An energetic and forward youth from a barren archipelago in the North Sea, Tzi always enjoys a challenge, throwing himself head-first into any situation that strikes his fancy. It’s the reason why he was so willing to simply leave his island home one day, jumping into the salty surf to swim to the mainland where opportunities abounded. There, he drifted from ring to ring, fighting anybody who’d take him on for fun and profit. Sometimes he won, sometimes he lost, but his grinning visage, one that never disappeared no matter what trouble fell in his path, was imprinted on the minds of recruiters for the Military Academy, and soon enough, his martial talents were requested for a greater cause: the protection of the glorious Imperium. He didn’t mind. For Tzi, the chance to fight in the name of the Empire only signified excitement and wonder. Never one to shy from an offer (also explaining his frighteningly immense knowledge about all sorts of foodstuffs and how to cook them), he was inducted as a student into Cadenza, where it was hoped that his devil-may-care attitude and unshakable adoration for a good fight could be better channelled. So far he really likes the place, though people have been admonishing his tendency to throw caution (and his shirts) to the wind. [b]Vessel:[/b] When not active, Tzi’s [i]Retiarius[/i] actually consists of two items: a carving knife and carving fork lacking in decoration. They are typically used during meal times, but when called upon, the pair fuses and enlarges into a wicked trident, one with a small anchor attached to its rear, that instills fear into the hearts of seafood. [b]Abilities:[/b] [i]Casting the Net[/i] - a net made of heavy magical fibres is produced by the [i]Retiarius[/i], usually shooting out of the trident’s length to catch and trap those unfortunate enough to be in its way (whether they be fish or Tzi’s foes). Escaping is particularly difficult due to the toughness of the net and its weight. [i]Catch and Release[/i] - the rear end of the [i]Retiarius[/i] is an anchor that can be launched at the environment and others to latch onto or wrap around them with a glowing chain, allowing for either rapid movement towards enemies or around the battlefield. [i]Backlash[/i] - if somebody is in contact with the [i]Retiarius[/i] or caught in its nets, any damage that Tzi experiences will be distributed between him and them. [b]Equipment:[/b] A portable grill; diary. [b]Trivia/Other:[/b] He is very well-versed in the cooking world (much to anyone’s surprise), but can be incredibly critical of other people’s cooking. He might’ve even been considered connoisseur if his descriptions were more flowery. He does however, have a stubborn streak over spicy foods (he likes them, but really can’t handle the spice). [/hider] [@KoL] [/quote] Your character is pretty much good as well. But that Retribution ability is a bit confusing. I get the Net part of it, and that actually makes sense, but... wouldn't he be the only one in contact with his own weapon most of the time, making the other half of the ability useless? Unless you mean that if he skewered someone they would get extra hurt in case he was harmed in the battle. I just want to be sure this is typed the right way.

He's the type of person who speaks without filter and is a rather strict proponent of tough love. Despite what it sounds like, Neno was born to a caring mother that showered him in love, even though his father had vanished before his birth. Despite his tone, he isn't an actual bad person. He does concern himself with others. What he doesn't care about are the woe-is-me attitudes others have. He is rather self-conscious of his own appearance, much to his own chagrin. [/indent][/indent] [img]http://i.imgur.com/UtmwWV1.png[/img] [indent][indent]Neno's vessel, Frigg, is a rather strange one. Rather than having any defined dormant form, Frigg is a single line of yarn. Because of this, Neno can freely manipulate the threads into whatever dormant form he wants. Its active form is less ambiguous. It takes the shape of eight individual threads, all connected at the base. Because of Frigg's ability to manipulate and extend itself, the threads can be expanded or tightened at will, changing how Frigg can be used. Usually, Neno keeps one thread wrapped around each arm, while the rest follow him as a cape. [/indent][/indent] [img]http://i.imgur.com/JY53sge.png[/img] [indent][indent][b]Thread Manipulation[/b][indent]Neno can manipulate the threads of Frigg, controlling them as if they were alive. Additionally, he can expand and contract the gauge of each thread. Doing so changes the properties of it, however. Extremely thin thread acts like metal wire. It becomes incredibly hard, but is significantly more controllable. Extremely thick thread acts more as a large cotton ball, it being extremely soft but unable to do much. He can also extend the range of the thread, but it is proportionate to the gauge. His soft and wire threads can't extend much, but his regular thread can extend the most.[/indent][/indent][/indent] [img]http://i.imgur.com/FOD3iKL.png[/img] [indent][indent]The only thing that Neno carries with him is a photo of his mother[url=http://i.imgur.com/zEDWh1m.png].[/url][/indent][/indent] [img]http://i.imgur.com/kjsMk9a.png[/img] [indent][indent]N/A[/indent][/indent][/hider] [/quote] Oh, this CS looks just visually beautiful. It's very good on content as well, so he's ok. I guess this gets us a trap. [hr] Either way, all of you can post your characters on the CS tab already. The first IC post will come out up to this Tuesday, I think.
