And another one !
Not even 5 minutes apart. Gotta give those GMs some job. :^)



Asterope, the Thunder Witch

Human, Female, 30 years old




Appearance
With an average height of about 5'6, Asterope doesn't fail to draw in gazes if only with her impressive hair length which are mostly kept tied and falling along her back. She would most often wear dresses, her clothing of choice, often along with an impressive cape or cloak. If you look close enough in her violet eyes, people say you can see lightning coursing through her iris.

Magic Divination

Asterope is peculiar in that she almost exclusively cast Elemental magic of the Lightning or Thunder type, something which she early on felt she had a strong affinity for. As a result, her Lightning and Thunder spells tend to be extremely powerful, but in a situation where it would be useless, she is left defenseless. A double-edged sword.

Elementalism
Focus: Thunder/Lightning

Lightning Call: The simplest of spell, left simple for the benefit of remaining malleable. Due to this she can cast it in two different ways;
- Focus: The lightning is called in one full blast towards one target.
- Chain: The lightning will hit a target at reduced power and bounce to other nearby targets.

Lightning Arc: A spell that summons forth lightning in a 180-degree arc in front of Asterope at about 5 to 10 feet of distance, meant for close quarter defense. The spell is quick and potent, for close range.

Thunder Call: A fairly powerful spell which makes Asterope focus the sky's Thunder and make it fall on a target or location of her choosing. If inside, she can instead channel it through her body, if stored within her artifact, and redirect it by aiming with her fingers.

Storm Bomb: A sphere of raging electricity will form in Asterope's palm which she can throw once it's fully stabilized. One of her two signature moves. On contact, it explodes in an impressive display of Lightning.

Storm Arrow: Her second signature move, and a spell designed by the Thunder Witch herself. She will focus Thunder magic into the form of an arrow about the length of her forearm and mimic using a bow and aim. This is her most long-range spell and has immense piercing potential but is hard to control due to the focused Lightning energy in such a small projectile.

Alchemy
Focus: Transmutation

Fabric Shift: The only spell Asterope mastered from another of the principles is a simple Alchemy spell to modify the composition of her own clothing and be able to changer her wardrobe to the day to day.

Equipment


Amulet of Storms: An amulet enchanted specially for Asterope to be able to charge it with natural storms. Considering some of her spells require access to the open skies, this allows her to bring a bit of that energy with her if she was to go inside, where the sky doesn't reach. She has to manually charge it using natural storms.

Asterope's Tome: A magical Tome that Asterope uses to focus her magic through and cast her spells. It was created to specifically enhance lightning magic, being the only type of spells she uses. It also serves as a diary and spell book.

Background


Asterope was born in Morgenröte to parents that were decent magus themselves and fervent members of the Magus Association in the city. As such, her magical potential was spotted early on and her fate was pretty much sealed at a young age. Growing up and among other learners, Asterope often came out first of her 'class' with the only thing holding her back being being unable or unwilling to use other magic than Elementalism and, even then, only using Lightning magic.

She spotted early enough her own affinity for it and decided to dedicate her whole magical prowess to it and become the best Lightning user there ever was. This little dream of hers is the closest thing to control of her own fate Asterope ever had growing up.

Tired of following into her parents' footsteps, Asterope emancipated herself by joining the Reavers of the Eon Tower to pursue another type of life than just the political ongoings of the city and the Association. Due to her obstinacy of using only Lightning magic, she quickly inherited the annoying title of "Thunder Witch" from her peers. Despite everything, she did manage to make a name for herself as a very powerful magus and Reaver.

I had a feeling, so no worries there. So, my follow up question is: is there a way to have her still use that concept? I can elaborate more on details, if need be. Her character sheet is a WIP, and I'm just taking five at work to respond.


Yes if you would, or we can discuss it in DMs.

Also, I'll probably start judging all the sheets by the end of next week.

@AzureKnight Question: you mentioned that Belua tend towards having traits "particularly those of bestial, avian, insectoid, and reptilian species". Does that mean fish-like belua are completely off the table?

I was mainly stating some examples for reference, but I did mean for aquatic varieties to exist as well.

My entry is read for judgement. There's a few hinky parts to her, I know - especially with regards to her background, but I didn't wanna go overboard and write an essay like normal. Still, if anything needs a revision, I will see to it. For now, back to 100%ing Hitman 3.

Also, this is LITTERED with hints to her anime and video game inspirations, lol

Kinda like an Easter Egg Hunt. XD

My Goodness! I honestly wasn't expecting to have attracted this much attention. I'll have to think about sone things, as I originally wanted this to be a small group.

Like the characters, btw ^^

Alright peeps, we'll likely be starting early next week. In addition, I'll more then likely be accepting a larger number of players than intended given the amount of interest this has generated.

Also, we have a Discord now! Feel free to join.

"Hmm! I'm glad to see you all took up my invitation. Some of the other staff here thought there was very little rhyme or reason in my selection process, but I like to think I have a keen eye for seeking out talent. I can also see that you all come from a myriad of backgrounds; a couple from the Great Forest and we even have some here from the Theocracy! I'm sure you all have your reasons for choosing to come here, but you all are now united as part of Eon.

Take some time to acclimate yourselves at the Tower and meet some of the other staff if you'd like. Oh, and one more thing: Try not to die out there, yes?"





Needless to say, everyone's sheet gets a pass. Know that we'll be starting sometime this weekend or early next week if time allows it.

Sorry to do this everyone, but I think I might have to back out. I’m gonna be much busier over the next month and I already have a good bit on my plate RP-wise. Again, really sorry, and I hope you all have a lovely RP going forward.

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm glad you threw your hat, in spite of it.

Take care.
