Hey lovelies, I know it has been two months, but I'm all gun-ho and determined and stubborn to finish this story. Work and life became overwhelming once more, but that comes with this provided territory. I know time lapse causes a lull in inspiration and character motivation, but I'm willing. Regardless, within the next week and some odd days we will be producing a kick start with a roll into a sequence of events that I've planned to stir such things back into motion. A new check will be produced as well to ensure and garner new players if need be if originals do not return.

Much love though and thanks for being with us, even with two months having flown by. ♥

- Cheers.

Character sheet is 50% done. I'm hoping today or tomorrow to finish it.

@Rockettestill here. Not sure if I'm going to make a new character though, if that isn't a requirement.

@Rockette So this RP looks really cool and I think I could really get in to it. I'm just a bit intimidated because I've never done advanced before. I believe I can handle it, but this will be my first one. Could I maybe have an idea of what's expected post length wise? Just so I know if I think I can do it before committing a character (even though I have part of an idea of a prisoner who "disappeared" already)

Also, hi @Raijinslayer, we keep running in to each other

@Rockette When it says, increase physical resistance by 100%, is he completely immune to it or it just doubles his resistance to physical attacks and projectiles?

@duskshine749 - Personally [and honestly], I don't care about "post length". This being primly because length has nothing to do with individual skill and quality to the post or the writer in question. You could write a novel worthy post, length wise, with proper paragraph pacing, but the content is lackluster, has no flow, and does not engage us [as the readers] what so ever. Versus a post that is maybe some odd paragraphs long, and captures our interest long enough to make us want more and brings depth and dimension to the character or event taking place.

So I wouldn't worry about post length, as one of my rules applies to quality and quantity, as we can see those who are genuinely making an effort and to those that are not.

And really, advanced isn't all that it's cracked up to be, or really worthy of intimidation, so I've no doubt you'll do just fine with us.

@Bishop - It basically doubles resistances, as SOLDIERS [despite being super-human worthy] are not completely immune to injury because of the mortal drawback that all mortals possess despite any and all enhancements to the body. The CORE values, also, are meant to calculate to the battle system I have designed, and tested, multiple times to just bring a unique edge to the method of fighting within this story. So I wouldn't invest too much thought into them other than crafting an edge to the character you may or may not be using, as the CORE values are mainly for me to use. Brilliant question though, regardless, as I know it would apply to writing battle worthy scenarios.

@Rockette One final thing. I was planning on building a sentinel with magic nullifying abilities. Could a colorless core allow abilities that cancel magic from the other cores? I know it says adapt and you mentioned that it imitates and takes from the other cores as far as I understood so could that extend to cancelling the abilities of the other cores?

And could you give me an example of how the sentinel would work in comparison without having the 100% bonus physical damage reduction?
Say, 2 people are shot from 10 meters away with the same hand gun right through the chest. Any noticeable difference between the sentinel and someone without the boon?

@Bishop - That's not a bad possibility, and definitely differs and goes outside from the traditional sort and norm that one could configure with Colourless attributes. I imagine that the adaptation quality found within the Colourless standard could be utilized to nullify, or as you say, cancel out an opponent with magical affinities. Say that the adaptation is so critical and immediate, almost on a subconscious level, that it alters resistances and defenses for a certain amount of time to the SOLDIER. Depending on the state of strength within the individual, I imagine, would be dependent to the amount of resistance or how one [or how long] such abilities would be cancelled out.

The CORE value of a Sentinel, in my calculations, will basically not receive as much damage as the opposite who does not have the value applied. The most.. simplistic way I can describe such is that it works in conjunction with the Aeon and the battle scenario within question. The CORE values will be used most during, what I will call, Boss Fights. To keep it from becoming too overwhelming or dampening to the story.

It's probably gonna be a while till I get a working character, I'm busy most of the weekend, but I have a question. Do the scientists generally try to match an Aeon to someone they think it'd work well with, or is it pretty much just random?

@duskshine749 - No worries, take your time.
Excellent question though. If you've briefed and gleaned over the characters thus far [those that remain, anyways] some of the Aeons seem destined to the specific character in mind with a certain trait that alludes to a personality of some kind or a hidden strength. I think it's something we've all naturally picked up on and decided that Aeons were pre-determined and selected for particular SOLDIERS. But, you're free to approach this manner in any way you deem fit.

I'm having a much harder time thinking of something than I thought. I basically have a note on my phone with the CS so I can work on it when I have time. This is what I have thus far

Possible concept, summons weapons as an ability. Was a criminal and was eventually brought in for the SOLDIER program. He worked with a crew, he was the tools man, always had the right piece of equipment no matter what situation might come up. A mole got in their ranks, there was a shootout, most of his gang died. He lived because he knew it was better to surrender and live to fight another day. He does something in prison, not sure what yet, to get the attention of those who select for the program. Probably a Blue Aeon, maybe another colour also.

Does that sound like something I could mold in to a working character @Rockette? I don't wanna invest to much just to have you tell me summoning weapons isn't something that can happen. And to make it clear, in my head they're weapons made of psychic energy, not actual weapons he'd summon out of nowhere

@duskshine749 - A criminal, huh? Possibly involved with the Imperial Paddock? If so, I have some fun ideas in mind for you!

Considering that some of the character can conjure some pretty wicked and terrifying manifestations, I don't see a problem with possible weapon projection. When you say psychic energy, is this an illusion to or rather, alludes to a mental fluctuation of the SOLDIER that causes these manifestations? Like some queer.. telekinesis that solidifies into whichever is held within the mind. I imagine it would cause some severe mental trauma, in terms of what power is put behind the weapons. It doesn't sound incredibly far-fetched, in comparison to what a lot of the SOLDIERS possess in terms of power.

If you need help concreting your concept, I can definitely help you.

@Rockette in my mind they're physical weapons used to fight, so probably closer to an offshoot of telekinesis. I've never really built a character for an rp like this one before so any help would be greatly appreciated.
