True on the college part

@Ebil Bunny How does Manny feel about frozen slip n slides?

MellexMyrion is just your typical college relationship

Who would Lhoren find eye catching? Give us the gossip.

I feel sorry for Lhoren and Raf, they are both too precious.

I mean, I don't think it's impossible, but expect the sappiest, most innocent, wholesome puppy love that would make Walt Disney blush.

Get in the Kotatsu, grab some hot cocoa and fresh mandarins, and enjoy the cozy vibes.

@Ebil Bunny How does Manny feel about frozen slip n slides?

All slip n slides are equal under the Law of Manny, ranked above digging holes but below building tree houses. Just make sure your slip n slides are stone-free, those can hurt!

Nice, double trouble on the way lol. Kasp likes to pull icy stunts as he practices his extracurricular freedom with his gift. Sorta of based him on a skater boi

@Deja Manny would absolutely go fantasy skating with Kaspaan, she's lived most of her life on ships so being able to move around so much is an exciting novelty

If there's a pond on campus, it's gonna be his this year. Tessa wants a play on ice now.

Just thought of a better name for the Fasha x Sylvia ship.

Caitnip (since the scented pheromones would basically have this effect)

Special Recognition@Teyao

My apologies to Teyao. I forgot to mention in his character blurb that

Myrion Stevar is the official Illuminaire for the House of Eusebia.

Please welcome Myrion as he takes on this hefty responsibility for the new semester.

Don't let his wide-rimmed glasses and understated style deceive you — this workaholic 4th year and new Illuminaire for the House of Eusebia, possesses the unique ability to 'evolve' the gifts of others, and better still, take them on as his very own.

P.S.
Announcements for the remainder of the character sheets are coming soon. There's a slight delay, so expect them early tomorrow morning. Thanks for your patience, everyone.

Tae: “Yes, go ahead and rub salt in my wounds while you’re at it.”

For the record, I’m not mad, but Tae very much is. They’re a sore loser. xD

I love Tae personality so much

FYI, for anyone that expressed interest in this RP before the Monday cut-off, today is the last day to submit your character sheet. We will not be accepting any more character sheets after EOD, today, 6.29.2023 EST.

Manny Ryi

1. After some delegation, we ask that you remove the teleportation aspect of her gift. Not dying (reincarnation) is pretty powerful by itself, plus you can shapeshift into different animals; that seems pretty sufficient for a Mystic gift. The teleportation element seemed more like a tacked-on gimmick that doesn't really have anything to do with reincarnation. Plus, teleportation would be an Astra gift, not Somatic.

2. Please clarify what you mean by "if her aeonheart is triggered with". We didn't quite understand with this meant. What are some examples of this that you thought of?

3. Is this character unrecognizable to other people every time she reincarnates? Please clarify that.

4. So we assume that the image in her character profile pic is her "base form". Please clarify whether she does, or rather, can she ever go back to her base form. This kind of plays into the 3rd bullet above, but informs us on whether the other players can ever recognize her whenever she reincarnates into a new form, whether human or animal.

1 - Excellent point, I removed it

2 - I imagined that since her aeonheart is the source of a power to reincarnate upon death, it would itself "reincarnate" if it would otherwise "die". Things I had in mind when I wrote "if her aeonheart is interfered with" were any injuries or surgeries (like the Forsaken Ritual) that would cause it to no longer work, or any mystic abilities/enchanted tools that would alter or dampen the ability in some way. Example being Myrion's Second Trigger, which while strictly beneficial would still be affecting it

3 - Manny has a completely new appearance every time she reincarnates and does not have a base form, her original appearance being permanently lost to time when her ability first activated. She is still generally recognizable though since she's always a girl of the same age, each incarnation comes with clothes of a style unique to her magic, and she's not especially adept nor interested in blending in. If she changed clothes and tried acting differently (and took a large number of vocal lessons, her accent's pretty strong and there aren't many other Yhartans around) then she'd likely not be recognized unless someone was observant. I edited the Appearance section of the CS as well, hopefully it's more clear now ^^

4 - I added profile pictures since not having one would be inconsistent with the style of the other character sheets, and focused more on the attitude and emotions being conveyed by the pictures rather than physical traits (other than being a young teenage girl). I tried to select pictures that varied to some degree in terms of hair/eye colors and hairstyles for that reason, but they were all generated from the same image so are still pretty similar

Thanks for the feedback, and I hope this cleared things up! :)

@Ebil Bunny
If I may humbly suggest something, letting @Aeolian answer the other Aeonheart-related details, whenever Manny reincarnates into a human form, what if it is a look-alike or at least similar in appearance to her original? I'll even generate new images for you whenever this happens. Because, there is a certain element to characterization and familiarity that is (sometimes, unfortunately) rooted in visual representation. This would also make it a lot easier for people to recognize Manny in a new form if the physical appearance (facial features) is somewhat reminiscent of the original.

This is not a must, of course! It's just a suggestion to help with character cohesion. Take it in, think about it, and that's it :)

@Alfhedil Go ahead and move your character sheet over to the character tab. Once your character art is done, you can add it retroactively; that's when we'll make the character blurb for Corrina too. Aesthetically, it doesn't work without the character art. lol Thanks!

I appreciate the understanding and do hope the suggested revision for her power works well enough for both of you, as I feel it's still pretty close to the intention even if clarified a little more lol. Also I'll be sure to send over the headshot specifically once I get it back from art friendo.

Going forward I think if I ever make another character I'll probably just run their appearance through either of you first lmao, save a bit of headache for all parties involved.

Absolutely! We're both incredibly huge Midjoruney sluts, so we'll happily create character images for you, from scratch if needed, or anyone here for that matter.

That's fine, I primarily had the changing appearance aspect as a reflection of her magic being (very) loosely based on reincarnation in Hinduism as opposed to say a phoenix's reincarnation. Possible hijinks were also on my mind, though I can see how drastically differing appearances could extend beyond just that into OOC annoyance. I've updated it so while it still changes, it has strong tendencies towards her old attributes so hopefully that will allow for the best of both worlds!

In regards to updating images, I prefer to keep things as upkeep-free as possible. Perhaps a good way would be just to update the one icon image above the CS in the characters tab as opposed to the three inside? It'd also be nice to have the finished image waiting before a reincarnation so I can base the new appearance on the image instead of the other way around, then get a new one for the next incarnation
