[Crimson Lion]

@Animus Do I have to make submit my second OC if he basically is only going to interact with my character. My plan is to not make home one of the 42 heros

[Vee]

WIP

Name: Tuwali Kh'lul.
Age: Twenty-two (22).
Gender: Female.
Kingdom: She belongs to no Kingdom though her residence is in the outskirts of the Water Kingdom.

Appearance:
Tuwali is quite a small yet very muscular girl standing at a mere 4'11". She has long white hair that is messily styled and reaches a few inches past her waistline. She has dark tanned skin covered in primitive and jagged tattoos. She wears furs and random pieces of armor about her body. Her eyes are a dark Orange color.

Persona:
Tuwali is a rather oddball. Years without social interaction has given her no skills in the area. She is often invading peoples personal bubbles either inspecting them or just.... being way to close for no reason. She simply just doesn't get what is appropriate and what isn't. Despite all this she is a rather kind girl if not a bit blunt.

Equipment:
-A large Axe/Scythe weapon that is crudely sharpened.
-A clawed right forearm bracer.
-Heavy boots with rough talons.

Ability/Magic/Technology:
Augmentation Magic - Tuwali is able to flow magic through her own body that increases different aspects of her physical capabilities. When she augments herself the region affected makes the tattoos glow a bright yellow.

Post Example:
Instead of a biography/history, write a post that introduces us to who he is currently. Backstory can be revealed later as character development.

Are you guys still working or ur collabs or should we advance the story to back at the encampment?

[TheWendil]

I've got nothing going on so far.

[Eleventhfret]

Still doing it. I think.

@Crimson Lion

Atm me and Eleven are writing a post about Hazel and Harley hanging out at the inn you mentioned at the end of the last collab.

[TheWendil]

@SwarthyBard126

What do you have planned for Adolphus? We could probably kill two birds with one stone and introduce both our characters in a collab.

[Crimson Lion]

So ... for our next mission, wanna fight a mountain?

@SwarthyBard126

@TheWindel

probably just have him show up, procure a table, a pot, and some tea have tea time in the middle of camp.

[SwarthyBard126]

@Crimson Lion

A mountain? I'm insulted to think you that we can't handle a large piece of rock.

[TheWendil]

@SwarthyBard126

How would you like to have him pick up a stray yandere? We won't be able to post it until after Animus accepts her, but it's a start.

Name: Kazeharu Kajiya

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Kingdom: Water Kingdom

Personality: A laid back, wandering samurai and blacksmith with only one reason to live, to avenge the village he lost. Because of his past he is a hardened alcoholic, always carrying a full bottle of sake. Despite always drinking, he is very aware of his surroundings, although rarely takes actions about it.

Weapons: Being a blacksmith plus the fact that he is always traveling, Nihon carries an assortment of katanas that he sells. One of which being his personal orange katana, Churippu.

Abilities: Harukaze is a master swordsman in the art of Mugen No Ha, a sword style that utilizes any number of swords between 1 and 7. So although most of the swords on his side are for sale, he can use them in in combat if need be. He is proficient in gravity affecting magic.

Post Example:

My Hider

It was evening, a cool night breeze ran through the air as it chilled all who walked outside. In the middle of the streets of Varial, a small town along the coast of the Water Kingdom, Kazeharu, having 4 blades at his side, sat outside of a bar at the docks watching the ships coming into the harbor after a long day of fishing and drinking through his bottle of sake. “Ahhhhh, now that hits the spot.” the drunk man said.

Just as he was about to take another sip, a man was thrown through the door and landed right behind him. Kazeharu looked behind him and examined the man, or more like a boy since he seemed to only be 21. Then a pair of men with standard Water Kingdom army blades walked out of the bar, one wearing an eye patch and the other having a buzzcut. ‘Soldiers?’ Kazeharu thought.

“Now listen boy!” Eyepatch said as both he and buzzcut unsheathed their blades. “This bar is for Water Kingdom soldiers ONLY! We deserve to have a bar to ourselves after risking our necks for people like YOU! So don’t even think about stepping back in there unless you want us to chop your head off.” He said as he held the tip of his sword to the boys.

“Yeah, so just get lost you piece of shit.” Buzzcut said as he put his sword on his shoulder.

Kazeharu looked past the men and into the bar, he could see around 5 other drunk soldiers and a bartender who looked like he was trapped in a cage of lions. ‘Not my problem.’ He thought as he looked back forward and continued to drink.

The young man on the ground nodded in agreement and ran away frantically, that’s when Buzzcut saw Kazeharu drinking, “Hey you, what are you doing just sitting there? Get lost! You’re blocking the view of the ocean!” Kazeharu heard, but ignored the man's warning.

Eyepatch walked forward towards the man sitting down, “Did you hear the man? MOVE!” he yelled as he swiped the bottle that Kazeharu was drinking from and threw it into the water.

Kazeharu looked at the soldiers standing in front of him, then at his alcohol in the water, then back at the two soldiers. “Didn’t your mother ever tell you?” Kazeharu said as he used his thumb to loosen his orange katana, “It’s rude to waste food” he then fully unsheathed his blade, Churippu. “Let me re-educate you.” he said as he held his sword to his side.

Buzzcut looked over to his friend, then back to the man in front of him. “Your funeral man.” he said as he swung vertically at the drunk samurai. In a split second, the samurai stepped to the side and slashed diagonally at the man's chest, killing him.

“You bastard!” the soldier said with his last breath. As he fell to the ground, the other soldiers ran outside with swords in hand and surrounded the drunk.

“You’re dead meat now boy!” one man said, “We’ll show you what happens when you mess with the Water Kingdom!” another said.

“Oh please, I bet you guys have never even fought on the front lines. You’re nothing more than a bunch of powerless soldiers who bully other people.” Kazeharu said as he grabbed his bundle of swords and jerked his arm up, causing the last three blades to fly into the air, “I’ll guide your corrupt souls towards your friend as you all enter the gates of hell together!” He yelled with a psychopathic grin.

He horizontally slashed a man to his right, then impaled the man next to him. He unsheathed the blade from the man's chest and threw it into the air, as his other swords were about to hit the ground, he grabbed two of them in the air while the third fell to the ground. He span around, slicing another two soldiers though their chests. One soldier ran forward and tried a diagonal slash toward the samurai, who then kicked up the third sword and then kicked it again at the bottom of the hilt, impaling the man.

“W-what the?” Eyepatch said as he began stepping backward before falling over. “What the hell are you?!” he yelled as he pointed the sword at the samurai.

Kazeharu looked upwards as Churuppi was about to fall in front of him, “I’m a survivor.” he whispered as he moved forward with expert timing and grabbed the blade with his mouth. He then ran forward and parried the man's sword with Churuppi as the other two blades impaled the Eyepatch.

Kazeharu looked around at the 7 dead bodies, he quickly sheathed the two blades in his hands and then retrieved the blades in the chests of the soldiers and sheathed them as well. He then walked into the bar and walked over to the bartender “Please sir, j-just take my money and leave.” the bartender said frightened

Kazeharu took out a bill, “I’d like one bottle of sake.” he said as he placed the bill on the counter. The bartender, confused and frightened, gave him a large bottle. “Thank you.” the samurai said as he left the bar. When he walked outside however, he sees a large group of easily 25 soldiers staring him down.

“You wanna explain?” the man who was obviously the captain said as he unsheathed his blade, followed by the other 24 soldiers.

Kazeharu sighed as he looked at the army, he took a deep breath as he got ready to do what he had to do. … He ran away at top speed.

[Against This]

Hopefully you are still taking people, because I got a big ol' wall of text coming at you folks.

Adrian Somberwald, the Sour Tactician

Age: 26

Gender: Male

Appearance:


Standing at an even 6 feet tall and weighing 165 pounds, Adrian is hardly one of the most imposing figures of the assembled warriors. In fact, the scowl that is all but engraved to his face and his ever skeptical eyes do not make for an endearing individual.

True to his pragmatic nature, Adrian prefers to dress in rather simple attire while not on a mission, and in light leather armor while in combat. After all, with the monsters they are up against, what good is a little bit of metal going to do?

Kingdom: Water

Persona: Sardonic. Pessimistic. Blunt. Rude. All fine words when it comes to describing one of the forefront strategists that the Water kingdom has to offer. Adrian is perhaps the epitome of the no-nonsense brand of thinking and wastes little time involving himself in affairs he deems pointless. Saying that he is reserved would be a gross understatement, as every aspect about him is purposefully cold and uninviting.

And yet underneath the unbelievably rough exterior is a man with few redeeming qualities. He is rational and analytical even when under extreme pressure and has momentous stubbornness that is often mistaken for resolve. His humor is so dry that it dehumidifies the air around him, but all too often goes unappreciated. This comes with a very direct and often times too honest manner of speech that leaves little room for friends.

Say what you will about his lackluster personality, but none can deny that Adrian is true strategist in every sense of the word. Rather than rushing in, he will observe a situation and look for openings and weak spots. He is adept at coordinating the movements of others in efficient and effective ways. And above all else, Adrian does everything he can to make sure his side always comes out on top.

Post Example:

It was raining. That simple fact alone did not bother the captain, but patrolling into pirates on such a night was downright offensive. Sure, sure, there was definitely a tactical advantage to attacking in such conditions, Adrian of all people knew that, but it was still all too cliché for him.

The nimble cruiser came to eerily quiet halt as Adrian readied his bow. “One longboat, fifteen men,” he announced to his own band of twenty. “Skips, Leech, try not to kill each other and hold the ship. The rest with me.”

The smoke, which was what drew Adrian and his men in the first place, was densest in the center of the village. Naturally, this practically screamed, “Look at me! I’m an ambush,” to him, so with a quick hand motion his men fanned out to secure the perimeter. Once alone, Adrian walked with all of the eagerness of a beached whale towards the center, seeing evidence of a great struggle but little else.

“I know you’re out there,” the captain called out, boredom dripping from his voice. “And you imbeciles know that you are surrounded, so let’s just get this nonsense over with.” With Gungnir slung across his shoulders, Adrian tilted his head to the side, as if readying himself to hear their response.

“You do bloody well to shove that there sticker up yer arse!” came the inevitable, and all too guttural, response. “And if dose men of yers comes any closer, we may just have ta’ kill our hostages!” For added affect, the pirate brandished a sword against the neck of a young villager.

A bored sigh was all that came out of spearman. “You idiot,” he muttered to nobody in particular, “You lot were already dead the moment you spoke.” With a lazy flick of his wrist, one of the throwing knives he literally kept up his sleeve was on its way to end the poor sod’s life. And as the knife found itself imbedded in the man’s throat, a controlled chaos broke out as his men that had just finished getting into position descended upon the rest.

Everything had gone according to plan.

--

“There are a few casualties, but it looks like most of the villagers are going to get through this alive sir,” one of his subordinates informed Adrian as he was retrieving his knife from what he recently found out was the pirate leader.

“Well doesn’t that just make us big damn heroes?” the sardonic man remarked.

“If you don’t mind me saying sir, you sure are a tough man to love,” the brave little private retorted.

“Carry on private,” Adrian said, with the smallest hint of a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth.

Equipment:

Throwing Knives

A rather simple and pertinent back up weapon should he need them. Adrian generally keeps five on hand at any given time, with three on his hip and one up each of his sleeves. And although he is not the most magically inclined individual, he is able to imbue them with some basic spells given enough preparation time.

Whisper

A bow that Adrian personally finds ridiculous looking, but has been assured by experts time and again that it is one of the pinnacles of modern technology. Although it is comprised of many parts, the bow itself is surprisingly sturdy and is quite capable of taking a number of hits before becoming unusable. And yet at the same time, it is also relatively light, weighing only slightly more than your average bow. Adrian didn't pay much mind to the scientific jargon he was given, because the bottom line was that this bow would make hitting his targets easier and make his arrows hit with much more force.

Ability/Magic/Technology: A tactical mind is what got Adrian lumped into the forty-two warriors assembled, not necessarily his physical prowess. That’s not to say he’s a slouch with that fancy looking bow of his, but it should be still be noted that he’s no super human.

As is common for most denizens of the Water Kingdom, manipulating the element that surrounds his home comes to Adrian naturally, with a particular affinity for converting it into ice being one of his few strong suits. Most would call that fitting. Adrian calls it predictable. Other than that, Adrian specializes in the the creation of barriers, as it can play a large role in dictating the flow of battles.

EDIT: Changed a few things around and cleaned up some parts.

We are still definitely still accepting, although Animus' (GM) schedule is a bit weird right now so it might take a while for you to get accepted.

Sidenote: Harley took a steak and a water.
