I was thinking permanent. It seemed like you planned on having the magical girls grow in strength over time, and I thought that tied in nicely with the tiger stripped tabby's many lives containing skills from all walks of life.


That was my intention yes. In that case, that's fine by me. Honing out how she acquires new abilities can be a plot point worked through IC via the Grand Ministry.

I figure that Lucette, Bonnie and Wilhelmina would make for a good team! Or at least that is how I planned it in my mind. Come to think of it, do Magical Girls prefer to work alone or in teams? Because Wilhelmina is best when she is a part of one, due to her lack of offensive abilities.


Most Magical Girls work in teams as it's outright encouraged by the Grand Ministry. Only the truly stubborn ones like Alters tend to work alone, though also with Ministry observation.


I love the delicious irony in that Wilhelmina is an Alter whose primary ability is supporting others.

Your character is fine on my end. You can move her to the CS tab as soon as possible.

And now the RP has a truly splendid tabby cat.

Is it pure coincidence that Grand Ministry and Game Master share the same initials?

Anyway, sounds good.

I'm reading through the other character sheets more completely now, and that is pretty funny. I'm also pretty sure this is going to be one of those situations where she's my favorite character and Silvia's least favorite one.

@Izurich I can definitely see how a Magical Girl who stayed by her mother's side till the end would have some interesting opinions on that regard. :)

Imagine the extra delicious irony of Silvia learning an ability from the Flying Dutchman's Kindness, given that there is a heavy altruistic theme to the tale. Maybe it could even affect her negatively overall, such as disabling another one of her spells temporarily due to the essentially clashing stories. As if to make matters even worse, Wilhelmina would likely feel sorry for her and try to figure out how to make the whole thing work better.

Their opposition could be a really interesting side plot, given that they are basically the opposite both in Grimoire and personality.

Inspired by Bonnie’s story beats, I mused about Lucette and found a couple points that’d be interesting to explore with her:
-The nature of Good vs Evil: Is there really such a thing? Does everyone deserve to be rescued? What about people like Hitler or Ivan the Terrible? If there’s a situation where she can only save one life over the other, on what moral grounds would she make her decision? Is it better to try and fail at saving both because the intent is what matters?

-Religious Fanaticism: Lucette is a devout Christian, she believes that Jehovah is real and the only true path to eternal salvation is through Christ, but over the century, she has encountered other magical girls whose powers derive from legends - that if true - will mean Jehovah is not the only supreme creator being and that Jesus isn’t the only way to salvation. It’s difficult to argue against facts after all, these “heathen” magical girls very much exist, she can perceive them with her senses.

-World Weariness: Perhaps a part of Lucette’s motivation is just to save her mother and no one else. Now that her mother has peacefully passed, it has an effect on her, even though she may not realize it herself.



And for these ones, they relate more with external factors instead of Lucette’s internal conflicts:
-The Malakhim: For most people, when they hear the word ‘angel’, they’ll think of heavenly beings that’s the epitome of all that’s holy, just, and good. However, it’s also true that Satan is an angel too, a fallen one, once named “Lucifer”, The Lightbringer, the one tasked by the Lord to lead his kin. If even the brightest of light among them can turn to darkness out of pride and hubris, what does this mean for Sefirot? A Grimoire that embodies all angels.

-Roma Bhakti: Now I won’t claim to know what exactly does @Lonewolf685’s character have in plan for Lucette, and honestly I’d like to keep it that way. However, if it helps us (as in Lonewolf and I) write an interesting plot, I’m willing to plan things out with you, OOC cooperation so that the IC can go smoothly. I’m a writer that embraces my characters getting hurt/traumatized/maimed and other ICly horrible shit, conflicts drive a story and no pain, no gain.



Of course, these are just spitballing and the reality may or may not turn out differently, that’s the beauty of organic IC development~

Well I wasn't planning to kill her. Traumatize and try to radically twist her worldviews but she'll live. Coincidentally I'll have the CS doe for my second character who will be a proper Magical Girl, a freshfaced Kohai whose new to this, dreadfully shy, but with a passion to use her powers for goodness!

So I'll get to enjoy both ends of the moral spectrum as we go forward :3

Oh I appreciate that, but I must say that I don't mind character death as long as it makes an awesome story, so I'm a fan of dramatic deaths, but not one for "lol sudden death out of nowhere, so random and tragic, right?" kind of deaths.

However, I agree, I think doing horrible shit without killing the character is far more fun and interesting than a simple "off with their head".

Let's see if I can shake off my RPing rust. Give it to me straight and let me know what I need to fix or if I misinterpreted anything about the setting.

She checks out for everything; all she’s missing is a description of how she became a Magical Girl. Add that and she’s good to go.

And now for another front line fighter, and a fresh faced kohai who's only just started, so she's still shellshocked about all this. Perfect for a sempai to sweep up;

I like her and the many despairs that will fall upon her. Accepted by me; wait for KoL’s greenlight.
