Thank you all for your input! I'm willing to change the electric bolt and wires thing; I did it mostly for personal taste-- although I have no plans on making her do the coin railgun anytime soon. Or ever.

I also am concerned of the body horror, mostly for the others who may find it disturbing. But then again, that would consider seeing the other guts that came with it, essentially making the concern for the wires moot, as we will also be seeing the other squishy things.

Oh, don't worry, I wasn't actually suggesting anything that you should do to your character, just replying to the other comments. The wires dangling from bloody flesh can be unpleasant, indeed. But, as almost anything, it may be handled in many ways depending on the writer's skill.

@Redward I wasn't sure if we were allowed, but I made a second character :x (couldn't help myself)

I did my best to balance all of his abilities so I hope they aren't problematic.

You guys really went ham with mature discussion overnight. I'm so proud. I'm a little concerned about the lore implications about some characters, but that is ultimately up to the GM to moderate and consider. Might even lead to some level of collaboration. Overall, everyone did a very good job. :^D

And personally, I don't mind body gore. So long as it is done tastefully. There is a difference between a nice little shock factor and disturbing amounts of excessiveness.

Ok, it seems like a lot went on in my absence. So, let's start at the top.

@MordecaiThe 1st I like Rosalie! She's approved. You can move her over to the Character Tab!

It seems like the conversation that arose from this submission has subsided. However, I would like to point out something that was brought up.

@Viatos Pretty much touched on it. At the level our Characters are competing at, the Enlil Network imposes regulations. Of course, that's only for Ranked Fights.

This also brings me to the clarification; Mygis isn't run by combatants, it's represented by them. Those types of fighters get fame and status; along with a certain degree of influence, afforded to their position. That's not to say they actually make decisions. Relera is democratic, as far as I've decided.

Anyway! Onto looking over Characters! My apologies, but this will be somewhat quick.

@Ghost Queen Approved! You can move James over to the Character Tab.

@Leslie Hall Changes Approved! Jayce is also Approved!

@Gentlemanvaultboy The only qualm I have is with Shocking Kill Flash Step. A stated cooldown would be great. Once that's done I'll Approve Icarus! I like the concept and plan to do something similar in the future. Plot-stuff, maybe?

@snake153 Approved! You can move Mollie over.

@Migyudon I don't see any problem with the concept. Also, welcome! ^^

For classes/characters with paranormal abilities, when do they manifest? Do they have it at birth, or is it something learned? Asking because I haven't yet decided why Molly has her lightning aura.

I can see why. Would a 3 second cool down be okay? That seems like enough for the skill to be usable while not letting him move infinitely fast backwards by continually teleporting behind himself.

As for plot I have a vague idea as to the hows and whys of Icarus's glitchiness, but always intended for it to be open to interpretation.

Let's be honest here. I'm a toxic flamer elitist. I am fairly open to the fact. Though only because I put my heart in the things I care a lot about. And that was actually me who suggested heavy regulation across all levels, and they suggested otherwise, but whatever. The debate, at least on my end, is that a normal society wouldn't allow mentally unstable people to walk freely in public space, especially public icons, because the Mygis is such a heavily regulated public? (I'm still not sure.) sport. It was not over whether there were rules or not. That much is self-implied. As being dangerous is very different than being threatening. I used sports professionals as an example, since they are similar, people held in high regard and are idols of children and the like. Perhaps it was done poorly on my part. It was all speculation on both our parts anyway. Babyraging aside. XD

I look forward to seeing all the approved characters in action.

@snake153 My character doesn't even know how she got her supernatural powers, and she was approved, so at birth seems like it wouldn't be out of the question. I'm fairly sure Tablet Powers, everyone is born with them, just like how they are connected to the Enlil Network from birth. Unless there is a process or something that I'm unaware of... Realizing them might take some people more time than others however, seeing the varied origin stories from what I've seen of the approved sheets.

So really, the options are quite vast.

Let me also be honest, that's an identity you want to disavow and reject with all the aggression you can muster. That's game-poison, and whatever positive qualities you have don't counterbalance, you're only degraded overall. Your roleplaying, your art, nothing you do is gonna seem as good or as interesting or engaging or valuable as it would be without a cloud like that staining it. There's a painting in bad lighting. Maybe it's a good painting, but no one experiences it that way, so all it is is a painting in bad lighting.

That's not putting your heart into things. If your greatest passion leads you to awfulness, all it was was awful. Please don't be toxic, or elitist, or flame anyone in the game. Be better than that. You have control of your fingers and your message.

I think my statement is taken out of context. Directly after, I said I was open to the fact; meaning I'm accepting of the criticism. It was more a self depravating joke than anything. I was speaking from the perspective of someone happening on my distasteful actions on this thread. As meta shaming myself. Sorry if it upset you.

Like I said, I dont care about cliches or unoriginal work. Such a thing doesnt exist. It is the amount of effort put in that I care about.

One thing I can say to you is, try to not car too much to numbers. The vast majority of the RPs on the Guild don't use dice or any other form of RNG-based system. As long as everyone is being honest, they should know the limits of their characters and avoid auto-hitting or other forms of godmodding (control the outcome of interactions between your character and one that doesn't belong to you, on your own w/o permission).

It's all about writer's skill and common sense, I should say.

I tend to collab with others more often than not when it comes to PVP stuff because I don't actually care much about winning as much as I enjoy character development. Like... I'd rather spend my time making the fight interesting with someone rather than focus on winning it, if that makes sense.

V.2 Here we go!

Main Concern: Is the Tablet Power different from Class Skills? Ergo, we have the choice to say that we were were either born with or learned our abilities?

Planning to make Aoife a technopath at birth. If it's not allowed, I'll make it her Tablet Power that she acquired such abilities. :)








Still having difficulty adding more measureable details, but her power level should be obvious now.

@KoL I tend to use a 6d when I don't know if something should hit or not

My basic mechanics is 1-miss 2-minimal 3~5-hit 6-critical, but that's just me.

Also, I learned that "tried to" and "attempted" are magical words when it comes to fighting~~

@KoL Agreed. I mostly use numbers as a way to give a vague understanding of the limitations of my characters abilities. There's no actual numbers system in place for how these abilities work In Character.

On the topic of the Supernatural Class Skills, I was just under the assumption that any mysterious powers granted by Classes were a result of the Enlil Network. I did design my characters Classes around their interests and their Tablet Power. I'm assuming that Tablet Powers, in most cases, manifest first in a person. Hence Piper's interest in technology and hacking, since her Tablet Power has let her have influence over machines since a young age. Same with Jayce's Time Magic, since Parallel Convergence is a Time Altering ability.

Speaking of Jayce, @Redward, I'm going to move him and Piper over but I'd like to make a slight edit to his Rewind ability. It would be as followed;

During Active Flow, Jayce is able to use Lesser Rewind on himself. Lesser Rewind functions the same as the original spell, but it can be used even if Jayce has already used Rewind on himself and is still in his 4 Hour Cooldown Period. This variation does not restore Jayce to a prior state and only functions as a re-positional ability. Using Lesser Rewind removes Active Flow.

Yes. Even Nobodies - the unClassed - have Tablet Powers, which are unique to an individual.

How many characters does that make it? And here I thought it was gonna be a nicely packed, small roleplay. Jeez, things will be pretty crazy the first few days, weeks even.
Good luck, GM.

@Ghost Queen And I agree, winning or losing is not important to a narrative. It's about how the characters develop and come to a greater understanding of something, the 'combat' simply being the method. A fun one at that, I'll admit.

I've started on the In-Character Introduction! Sorry for the delay~

I'm about twelve paragraphs in and I plan to add a little more. For clarification, once I've posted, everyone can start. It will be taking place during the 'third period' of the day. Your Character can be in class, or taking lunch, or whatever. Do what you would like. For the slice-of-life portion, I won't be placing any heavy rules on what your Character can be up to.

I should have the Introduction done and posted sometime tonight. If not tonight, in the morning!"

If I've missed anything OOC, please send me a PM or @ me in this thread. I apologize if that's the case, but things have been fairly hectic.

Thanks for your patience!

EDIT: I will be changing the status of the RP to 'Full', once the Introduction is posted. This is just as a note.
