[@Gobby] Alright, so made a few more slight changes to the Relic. Basically, the traits gained are permanent but to use her 'beast form' so to speak, she'll need to actually have the gauntlets for now and she can only sustain the form for about a minute. Thought it'd just help it fall in line with a few other relics and such that have been proposed. Might be permanent later, but for now I think the permanence might be a bit much after thinking it over. I really should start thinking these things through more...xD [HIDER=Isana] [CENTER][img]https://safebooru.org//images/117/cfa9957db5a9205ac2c5da3de131730f911ba9fa.jpg?117212[/img][/CENTER] Isana hasn't entirely been able to get rid of her work clothes from home yet. Dressed in a formal black and purple dress with white gloves that isn't exactly suited for survival in the wild. [hr][hr] [INDENT][b]Name:[/b] Isana Seiger [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Age:[/b] 24 [b]Personality:[/b] Currently? Isana is a rather mild mannered individual. She has no idea how she ended up in arcadia in possession of something like 'The Bangles of the Beast lord' or at least, she doesn't want to accept what she saw. Either way, Isana tends to try and stay out of peoples way, and always tends to go with the path of least resistance in regards to how she accomplishes things. She's by no mean shy or non-talkative, but she tends to always go with the path that could put herself in a safer, less dangerous position even if it means stepping on others toes a bit. She absolutely loathes direct conflict and will always do her best to try and avoid it. By all means, she is a follower and not a leader. She has absolutely no idea how she's supposed to use this...relic, but lately she's been feeling a tad bit more irritated and annoyed towards others and other strange urges. [b]Background:[/b] Simply put? Isana was a disgruntled salary worker. Spent her life in a cubicle in front of a computer working for some ungrateful corporate schmucks. But, well, that's just how things worked. By the age of 22 she was well on her way to becoming a corporate drone and honestly just completely tired of life. By 24, she had pretty much given up hope on an exciting or better life. Working long work days and taking lots of overtime was just normal, even if she absolutely hated her superiors, there wasn't much she could do about it. [i]"Wouldn't it be better to be the one in control? The Alpha? The one who had [i]power[/i], so to speak?"[/i] The thought occurred to her on her way home one night from the office. She has no idea where it came from, but it made her laugh. Oh sure, sure, her be the leader of something? Have a shred of power? Pfft, like that was going to happen. Sarcasm aside, it happened almost instantly. A large, silver haired beast stood in front of her, almost three stories tall. It looked like a lion of some sort - with wings and some sort of poisonous tail. A manticore of some sort? She was pretty sure that's what it was called. She was also fairly certain someone put something in those doughnuts she ate. [i]"Irritation. Frustration. You are weak, human, but you will do..."[/i] Whatever this beast, whatever this creature was she couldn't be certain but she didn't get long to ponder it. The beast raised a powerful claw, certain it was going to crush her. The next thing she knew, she was blasted off her feet and literally eating dirt. [i]"Don't waste this chance, human. If you wish to live, then hunt! Prove your worth to survive! Use this relic and carve your name into the forests!"[/i] True enough, there were simple bracelets around her wrists. She has no idea what she is going to do now, except try and find some way to survive. [b]Skills:[/b] Skills? Aside from following orders and knowing how to make herself seem as small and unassuming as possible, Isana doesn't have much in the way of special skills. That said, she is fairly resourceful when it comes to a number of things, and has an acute mind that can pick up on things rather quickly. At times, when she must, she can be fairly persuasive and knows how to use words to her advantage. [b]Relic:[/b] [b]Bangles of the Beast Lord:[/b] At first glance, these bangles seem to be made of simple polished wood and string, decorated with feathers and a number of colorful stones. On the sides seem to be some carving of a great beast of some sort. These bangles allow the wearer to take essence from a down foe, and steal trait of theirs be it physical trait such as a tigers ears or a special ability such as a spiders poison. As these bangles follow the rule of 'Survival of the fittest' and encourage the hunting of stronger, different foes to gain power. In essence, the bangles allow one to perform a transformation similar to what one could expect of a 'were-creature' of some sort. Drawing upon the bangles power, the wearer is able to summon these traits onto their person and gain the accumulated abilities of these traits. At the moment, the form is exhausting to maintain and Isana can realistically only sustain it for around a minute before she tires. [b]A few limitations are:[/b] The creature must be flesh and blood, or otherwise 'living'. She'll gain nothing from spectral entities or undead and have a lot more difficult time fighting them with tooth, claw, and poison. Perhaps some sort of beast with some elemental abilities could help with that, though. As of now, changes are permanent and will override any preexisting ability she has gained of a similar nature. Venom from a snake and venom from a spider won't make a more powerful venom, but rather one would replace the other. She [i]must[/i] take a trait from a downed foe regardless if she wants it or not if she is able, even if one would replace something else. She must also land the lethal blow herself. No weakening it and letting others finish it off. Also, the bangles grant no inherent abilities. Strength, speed, perception, etc. Nothing. She will have to figure out how to do such things herself before gaining any traits.[/indent] [/HIDER] [@Amedayis] Well, the easiest thing would be for you to check the first post in the thread - has any and all relevant information. But basically, you're a human plucked from this world and given a 'relic' of some sort that starts out with limited power but gets stronger as the story progresses. Then we go fight monsters and stuff. You'll have to ask Gobby about anything else he has planned, but for the moment the GM doesn't seem to be on much, so you might have to wait a few hours.
