Are you still accepting characters? I've had several concepts I'd like to throw out there if so. You mentioned also that you may accept a homunculi, so I would like to know a little more about them before I commit to writing. 1. When they are formed with materials and a soul, is a new soul generated or is one taken/given/sacrificed/what-have-you? If an existing soul is used, can memories, personalities, or any other defining features of a person be retained during their creation? 2. When created, do they automatically possess the skills of their function or must they be learned/trained? Being sentient, and having personalities, are they are able to develop other skills? I have a few concepts and here is one I'd like to expand on after deliberation. (Might want to skip down to the backstory first, but you do you) [hider=CS WIP] [u]Name[/u]: Benjamin (placeholder) [u]Age[/u]: 30? [u]Gender[/u]: Male [u]Appearance[/u]: A disheveled man reaching what should be his prime years, instead looks like an addict suffering from withdrawals. [u]Personality[/u]: Empathetic of those in despair. Has a strong moral compass, though doubt of his own abilities inhibits him. Stands away from others due to overwhelming sense of no belonging. [u]Abilities[/u]: No Affinity Trait: [b]Amplifier[/b] - Enchanted equipment have more powerful effects when used. May also be used in conjunction of another magi (only one at a time). To do so, he must stand directly behind the caster and perfectly mirror their movements and chants. Can do so without prior coordination, but has no agency during a spell's cast time. [u]Skills[/u]: [i]Uncanny Dodge[/i]: Although lacking in the ways of physical prowess, he manages to keep from taking direct hits from projectiles and melee attacks (may stumble in the process; can be magically held to negate this). [i]Sense of Direction[/i]: He somehow knows exactly where he is and how to get somewhere as long as he has been there before or has seen a map. Can be fooled by any type of illusion unless it affects his perception of space. [i]Or Lack Thereof[/i]: Clearly was not given the skill to know any languages, written or spoken. Knows Basic English due to limited time with teachers. Big words are lost on him, folks. But he can learn! [i]On the Subject of Learning[/i]: Was created with the highly sought-after skill of perfect recall. Given enough time (of which is a precious resource for him), he could be fluent in languages. Depending on the detail of memory, needs more time to correctly remember events. [u]Assets[/u]: Whatever equipment is given to him by those in charge / the clothes on his back. [u]Brief Backstory[/u]: An unfortunate story of an unfortunate soul that was trapped and subsequently used in a hasty ritual to create a homunculi by some malicious individual. Jumping awake in the middle of some dank basement, surrounded by all manners of reagents and is naked within the middle of some ancient looking symbol upon the floor, he slowly gathers his thoughts of who he may be. It feels as though his heart will never stop beating at its intense rate, a constant pounding inside his chest. There are journals, books, scraps of paper and sketches all around the room of some form of Human. Goals, perhaps, an idea of who he should've been. It shows someone steady, strong, confident. A fighter? None of this is comprehensible, but he does realize he is not this person. He is not steady, he quavers with every move. He is not strong, his limbs are don't even seem half the size of the one depicted. He is not confident; he is uncertain of his location, his reason of being, even of his own will to live. A heavy, wooden door is firmly closed atop the stone steps. He would not have even known it was there were it not for the sudden rapping. He doesn't understand the yelling. A heavy 'clunk' and the lock is undone. A stream of light momentarily blinds the homunculi, though he makes no attempt to shy away or shield his eyes. Others quickly approach him as he loses consciousness. [/hider] So, this is an 'improperly created' homunculi, who is burning up his lifespan like crazy. If it weren't for the usefulness of his trait, he may have been mercy killed by those who discovered him. Though now he is living on borrowed time -- just as long as he is useful. If this isn't accepted, I understand. I also have ideas for a spatial affinity magi.
