So if all of our characters are students at beacon, is it safe to assume that they would all know each other? Probably not extensively, but it's not as though this is going to be the first time any of them have met, right?
The cast of characters sure is exploding. I'm very excited for this.
Username: Leslie Hall

Character Name: Drake Umbra
Age: 20
Gender/Sex: Male

Appearance: Drake is of average height with a very slender build, making him appear quite lanky with his longer than average limbs and laid back, casual posture. He has a soft, sickly pale complexion with skin as cold as scales. His mop of bright green hair is trimmed to be kept shorter at the back with a longer fringe. Drake likes to dress to impress, wearing a long sleeved white button up shirt, tucked neatly into a pair of jet black trousers that are fastened just below his hips by a leather belt. Over his shirt he wears a gray vest with a black tie tucked into it, loosely tied up under his collar. While travelling he also dons a black blazer with a matching trilby hat.

Note: Drake wears dust infused clothing. When using his semblance or his weapon, intricate depictions of serpents cover his clothes from head to toe, glowing a dark green color.

Weapon: Ophiuchus - A weapon that appears very archaic in design and ability, Ophiuchus is a leather bracer with a dust gemstone, cut and smoothed in an oval shape. Intricate carvings line the artifact, acting in tandem with the gem as a catalyst for dust manipulation. The weapon isn't flashy, but it allows the user to heavily amplify their control over dust as well as their own semblance. Combined with the powers of Grimm and the rare dust imbued into Drake's being, Ophiuchus is a powerful tool that lets caster based Hunters like Drake stay on par with those who wield unique weapons.

Semblance: Ouroboros - Drake's semblance allows him to summon forth spectral chains, black in color with a green energy surrounding them. Combined with his weapon, Ophiuchus, which uses dust to enhance the power of the wielders semblance, Drake can utilize his semblance as flawlessly as any weapon. He can even create glyphs on other surfaces to use his semblance from a distance, attacking from various angles at once.

On the ends of his chains, he is able to utilise two different weapons for various uses. The first is a standard dagger in the shape of a serpents tail, which acts as his main form of offense with his Semblance. The second form is a grappling hook in the shape of a serpents head that can latch onto anything or anyone with moderate strength. He can use this hook to pull enemies or objects towards him or reel himself in to his target. This is where Drake's true strength as a hunter lies. What he lacks in raw power, he makes up for in incredible mobility; able to reposition himself easily throughout a battle numerous times and fight on his own terms.

Corruption: Drake's corruption takes complete hold of his semblance and his mind, twisting them both into devastating tools that consume everything before them. When under the influence of the corruption, the chains of Ouroboros transform into vicious, blood thirsty serpents created from dust and Ophiuchus. They move much quicker than the regular chains, aiming to tear anything they come into contact with to shreds. While corrupted, Drake loses the ability to use Ouroboros for its utility; sacrificing mobility and speed for raw power. Additionally, Drake can also use Ouroboros to enhance his his melee attacks with his fists and feet, surrounding them with dust in the shape of a serpents head for extra power and speed.

While under the effect of corruption, Drake's body heats up exponentially, and his skin becomes tough and scaly like a snake. Even his canines grow in size, becoming sharp and deadly. When corrupted, Drake becomes merciless and dark, with a sadistic desire to inflict pain and suffering on his enemies.
@Volenvradica I intend to get into Guilty Gear sometime.

"Why does this only happen to Dragon Slayers'?"


Aiden has offended me, a non-dragon slayer, who also gets motion sickness very easily. I challenge him to a duel.

Pistols at dawn.
@Lmpkio It's not usually this busy for me, but the lady I'm replacing recently just lost a member of her family. So she's needed some time to take for herself and her family, plan the funeral, among other things. So I've been her for the last 2 weeks. I think things should go back to normal next week.

In any case, I've contacted Kitsune and Akashi about a collab for our characters.
Just letting people know that despite a very tiresome week of work, I am still alive.
I'm interested! I really miss RWBY. Can't wait for volume 3.
