The Rorie League, a Pokémon Trainer RP (always open for more players)

"Kawaken, I'll direct you, come." Her Poliwhirl came to her side and Regan directed him, pointing at Spearow as they came through the loose bubble dome. The little birds started picking at the dome, bubble by bubble, while the smartest or most agile slipped through. She saw one bird get thrown by an invisible hand. That must have been Sarah. She turned, and saw her Girafarig! "Good thinking. Focus more on the ones picking at the outside." Gira was more of a physical attacker, wasn't he? Well, he seemed to be doing alright, despite. Small fry, then? Usually, a flock this size would have Spearow of a wide range of strengths. She was too busy to try and find them, though.

Above, Rapier was a little baffled that his target had disappeared. Fearow were too big to do that... So what happened. He hovered for a moment before evading a Spearow diving at him and rolling into a dive. They'd come to reinforce? Heh, they would have been trouble before, but now, he'd have little difficulty. There were more climbing on him from below, and he blew past them, striking a few as he did. He had an idea.

He swooped past the group of Spearow gathered below and grabbed two, using his gathered speed to pull back up and come around on his pursuers. With a quick vertical U-Turn, he flung his captive Spearow at them, missing with one but hitting with the other. That was worth a good laugh, at least, hah.

Regan saw her bird pass by close and looked up. The Fearow was gone? Had Sarah done something with her Abra? She'd noticed the Pokemon was out, but she had a hard time hearing with all this flapping. No matter, Rapier was freed to deal with the rest. He seemed to be having fun, though.

Rapier let out two Air Cutters, knocking down a few of them, and then drove forward the dome again. He rolled to the side and used Steel Wing to attack the Spearow and to help him make his curve around the dome of bubbles, clearing out a swath of them.

"Whew. Alright, ready to make a break for it?" Regan identified a chance, and knew she should take it, but... Where were they going? They couldn't outrun birds, maybe they could find a cave? She really wished she had a vehicle, after all. Or that she had Terra, the flygon could sing to the Earth with her wings and hear it in return. Ah well. She could try to mimic the technique, but she needed to focus and wasn't nearly as good at it. They'd have to be on top of it, practically. "Look for a cave or something while we run."

Just Another Hero

The situation on the roof exploded! Literally. Crysalis readied himself for the villain to emerge again. The last civilian he was guiding entered the gathering area, and the care of the heroes and authorities there. Still no commotion from the villain, was he done? Ah, he'd been tied up. That was good... Now for damage control. He saw a response vehicle with an officer inside, on the radio, he'd just arrived, and must be communicating the situation. Crysalis approached him and explained the situation as he knew it. He saw rescuers and medics approaching, and turned his attention.

He should see what the story was with the villain.

He approached the gathering group of heroes and quickly spotting the injured hero on the ground. Crysalis hurried to his side and looked over his injuries. "You got hit by those grenades? Oh, jeez, dude. You, uh... You want me to call you a medic?" He seemed to be laying rather leisurely, as though his injuries weren't serious. "I'm gonna call you a medic." As he looked around for a medic, he spotted the villain hanging inside the building. "Aaand the capture squad."

He flagged down the appropriate responder teams and volunteered to accompany the capture team to apprehend that... Gross villain suspended in the building.

Just Another Hero

As Crysalis came out from the alley, he noticed he had two pros following after him. "I think I saw something ascend to the building top." He looked, all he could see was the overhang. "I think it was the villain, I heard him. I can handle a little rescue work, if you want to chase the-" thump! Crysalis looked up toward the noise. "Oh, someone's got him? Hmm. What's his Quirk, anyway...? It's gross." The student hero looked around, thoughtful, for just a moment. "If he's got this many grenades on him, he may have something else up his sleeve." He bounced on his feet as he turned and moved toward the shop next door. He heard the announcement from Doombreaker, but she was across the street. It didn't seem like anyone had come through this building. Despite the blown out glass, Crysalis propped the front door open. Safer than people stepping through it. It looked like three grenades had landed in here, but anyone in the front room had the good sense and was fit enough to run away, apparently. They'd also had the time to do so, which meant... Something, but he was too busy to figure it out just then.

"Is anyone in here? I'm a hero, here to help." He smiled and greeted the few people that came out, but learned there were more people inside. It didn't seem like damage from the grenades went too deep into the building, but there was also another floor above him. Just as he was thinking that, he heard the ceiling starting to give way. He worked whipped around to see, wondering if it was a person or furniture. If it was a person, he'd have to catch them. He moved quickly, and heard no shrieking or anything. A filing cabinet fell through! It fell mostly upright, but poised to fall over on someone from tilting. He deflected the heavy thing away from the citizens, relieved he didn't end up crushed himself from being too eager to catch a person.

"I need to clear out the upstairs. This room isn't safe, so come in past the damage and we'll go together to Doombreaker when I come back down." If either of those pros were still following him, he'd feel a lot better if one of them could see them safely across the street. Maybe he was being paranoid, but he had a bad feeling this had been too easy.

Upstairs, he had to contend with a weakened floor. The shockwave from those grenades just have done it. The upper floor was a maze of cubicles, but he could see where the filling cabinet had fallen through. "Jeez, talk about the labyrinth of work. Anyone in here?" Crysalis tried to remember the floor plan from the floor below, and stick as close to those walls as possible. Further collapsing the floor would only make things more dangerous, and his crystals and gear made him heavy.

He walked very carefully as he called out. He got a few responses, but there were also weak sections of floor in his way. After considering things for a moment, he got the idea to use the cubical walls to support his weight. If it would support him, it should support them. With pathways laid, he brought the civilians down from the second floor and out the building. "Alright, let's go."

He looked over his shoulder at the rest of the street. Damn... Did they get the rest of the buildings already? Or was there work to do? Crysalis put himself between the small group of civilians and the threat, hopefully still up on the roof.

Phoenix Wing: New Dawn

Here's some developments. Mostly history, maybe.

Tidius history changes

Name: Tidius Reinor

Age: 29
Magic: Magical devices
The Doctor has been researching a means by which he, one without magical potential, can use magic. He uses lacrima as fuel for Holder-luke devices that he's made himself, copying magics from guild mates and captured mages to make them.
Magic Level: -
History: Dr. Tidius Reinor was ejected from his academic environment due to his obsession with magic, especially during a time magic has been so feared. His constant pursuit of magic power inspired fear in his colleagues, leading to his exile. This only fueled his desires, and he found himself in the Electrician's Guild, working alongside mages. He had found a magic that might suit his needs, so he stayed close to it, waiting, using his position in the Electrician's Guild to his advantage.
It was years before Al-Gin requested a ship from Maximilian, and Tidius saw his chance. He had men infiltrate the guild in the years the ship was under construction, and sent in more men when the ship was completed, disguised as crewmen. He set everything to go down with a personal visit to congratulate them on such an impressive ship. He focused his plans around taking control of the ship once it was complete, seizing the magic for study, and holding the ship for long enough to achieve his goals.
Personality: The Doctor is quite manipulative. He is very obsessed with obtaining magic for himself, whatever the means. He seems to be genuinely concerned for those in his charge, but is now concerned with his own ends, and is not above using his own people to reach his goals.

Regan Hadou changes

Added Green Earth Magic and Requip: The Chef, and added history and guild mark/location

Name: Regan Hadou
Age: 38
Birthday: 6/7
Magic:
Shockwave Magic
Regan can emit shockwaves from anywhere on her body at will. She can use these in an offensive or defensive capacity, or for utility. In terms of utility, she can launch herself using the rebound of the shockwave. Additionally, she can focus the shockwave through her sword and achieve a razor's edge.
My Sword - Regan can focus the shockwaves of her magic into a blade, should she be without one. It's a little deadly for her tastes, though…

Yawarakai-Te Masamune - Masamune's Tender Hands
An ancient blade passed down through her family. The blade looks as though you're gazing into an unobscured starry night sky. Should a person with ill intent or war in their heart touch the sword, it will burn them in rejection. The sword will not actually harm the living, passing right through them as though nothing happened. It does, however, inflict pain as normal. Perhaps even more so, since the body is left intact. There are exceptions, but the last instance of the sword inflicting deadly harm was extreme and ancient.

Tomato Feast Signature Magic
Requip - The Chef
Chef's Pantry - The user is able to pull anything from Tomato Feast's walk-in pantry with fridge and freezer sections, provided they know where it is. They had better put it back properly, too. Regan hates it when the pantry is unorganized. You better stock it back up, too! Skilled users like Regan or Al-Gin can enter the pantry, though this is usually only ever done to organize it.

Chef's Cupboard - Same deal as Chef's Pantry, but with pots and pans. Don't mess 'em up, or Al-Gin will get mad.

Chef's Drawer - All manner of storing spoons silverware, ladles, etc.

There are no knives stored. That's a hazard. And your knives are your knives. Every wizard taught this magic by Al-Gin gets their own knife set to keep with them, that serve as a key to get in.

Green Earth Magic
Regan can, as she walks or meditates, send her magic power through her feet, into the earth around her, and encourage the energies of life to flow. Fertility in the soil will rise, and water tables might begin to fill over time. It does not cause things to grow, but makes it possible for things to grow. Simply walking through a region will not bring great change, however. If she invests a month of time in a small farm, they and their neighbors might see better crops if the rains are the same as the previous year. Time spent in the city is less productive in terms of crops, but people attempting to grow plants on their own in the city will be unusually successful with any soil they already had. Plants will also be more prone to growing in the street, which she understands to be a pest.
Magic Level: S
History: Raised by her mother to be a warrior, Regan has taken the way of the sword to heart. As her mother had taught her, a warrior must be strong and righteous. The duty of the strong is to protect the weak from exploitation and injustice, to make the world a place where all can live. That is why strength exists.
She left her mother's training with her blessing, taking the family sword at her side. The blade would spare her the harshest part of a warrior's life, but with a skilled enough hand, affording that protection would not stop the sword from bringing peace and justice. Regan left her home just as the industrial war was ending. Loose ends left ear criminals wanted, and Regan found herself her challenge; to bring in these criminals, alive, to answer for their crimes. It was during one such hunt that she found herself tracking down a certain battle chef, and instead of another bounty, she found a good man, tired of war. A friend.
Al-Gin Garama Daroon and Regan Hadou started Tomato Feast, with Al-Gin as the guild master and Regan as their enforcer, a title she rarely needed. Years pass peacefully, and one day, Regan was sent on a bogus S-Rank quest submitted by the Electrician's Guild, to the mainland as a means of getting her out of the way for someone else's nefarious scheme. One wild goose chase later, she caught on to the fact the quest was not genuine. Understandably angry, she has vowed to end whatever plot needed her absence.
Personality: A serious woman with a strong sense of justice, she has a serious soft spot for women.
Guild and guild mark location: Tomato Feast, big across her back

Al-Gin history and Requip - The Chef

Name: Al-Gin Garama Daroon
Gender: Male
Age: 49
Magic:
Gourmand Magic.
Hey, it's Pearl Jam no it's not. While his cooking can, yes, heal the body of ailment with the proper nutrition, he can also imbue meals or, more portably, snacks with magics that will create various effects. A spicy riceball or curry could turn into fire breath, for example.

Furthermore, there's no body horror side effect to the healing of Al-Gin's food. You don't eject teeth to get rid of a- well, maybe for cavities. Most tissues will be healed and not replaced via body horror sequence, however. That's a different anime.

Fire Magic
Learned mostly as a means of cooking without the need for fuel, Al-Gin also recognized the value of having a more impromptu defense measure available to him. If he were ever caught without an attack food on his person, he would be able to fall back on fire magic.

Tomato Feast Signature Magic
Requip, The Chef
Chef's Pantry - The user is able to pull anything from Tomato Feast's walk-in pantry with fridge and freezer sections, provided they know where it is. They had better put it back properly, too. Regan hates it when the pantry is unorganized. You better stock it back up, too! Skilled users like Regan or Al-Gin can enter the pantry, though this is usually only ever done to organize it.

Chef's Cupboard - Same deal as Chef's Pantry, but with pots and pans. Don't mess 'em up, or Al-Gin will get mad.

Chef's Drawer - All manner of storing spoons silverware, ladles, etc.

There are no knives stored. That's a hazard. And your knives are your knives. Every wizard taught this magic by Al-Gin gets their own knife set to keep with them, that serve as a key to get in.

Magic Level: S - Guild Master
Personality: Al-gin is obsessed with food, so it is no wonder his magic revolves around it. He loves to cook and share his cooking, and views running a restaurant as a means to do that, not to make money. He understands that a restaurant is a business, but doesn't see the point in doing much more than making just a slight profit.

History Al-Gin grew up with a poor family, in a desert city. As such, cooking meals was very important to their daily life. When their parents could not provide enough money to purchase the food they'd need, Al-Gin would go out and forage for ingredients, bringing them back and cooking the meal, instead of letting his tired parents do the work. This was the beginning of his long career as a chef.
One day, while he was gathering, he ran into another chef doing the same. They went for the same herb, and that got them to talking, and then got the old man to teaching. Not just cooking, but a magic to go with it. Al-Gin was delighted at the things he heard he'd be able to do for his family, and he asked what he should cook for his exhausted parents. A simple dish of rice and meat would be able to restore their stamina, but they could not afford meat. The elder chef kindly gave him 3 kilos of meat to take home with him, telling him to chase the desire of cooking for others.
So he did, with great enthusiasm. He loved to cook and loved to eat, but even more, he loved for others to eat his cooking. He loved to hear their praise, loved to see their expressions when they were stuffed full, and loved to take criticism to improve his cooking. To him, cooking is life.
Al-Gin was conscripted by the Steam Corp for his burgeoning fire magic, as well as his incredible cooking. With his cooking behind their men, surely, they could fight twice as hard. It didn't take long before Al-Gin was pressured into being more aggressive with his cooking. To attack, instead of just cook for the recovering. This led to his being pushed to the front lines, where he fought, but after the fight, he was caught caring and feeding any wounded he came across. Before anything could happen, Al-Gin belched out a great cloud of smoke and disappeared.
After the war, he was hunted as a deserter, which is how he met Regan, and founded Tomato Feast with her. With her knowledge of the Electrician side of things, he sought out Maximilian Stratos to further his goal of cooking for the world over with an airship. He'd need to take his restaurant many places, and to do so, he figured that this man who put a stage in the air would certainly be able to help him. Imagine his dismay when his underlings had their own plans.
Secretly, he supports Maximillian during his capture, waiting for the right time to free him and rid himself of the vile betrayers in his guild, and bring back his precious Tomato Feast.

Maximilian Stratos

Magic elaboration and history update

Name: Maximilian Stratos
Age: 57
Magic: Energy Make - See Trinity Stratos
Energy Projection - Maximilian can detect the flow of energy, including heat, electricity, and kinetic energy. He can even manipulate them, though he usually has to touch his power source. As such, kinetic sources pose a problem. Once he has it, he can then unleash it in a blast. Most commonly, he uses his make as a fuel for this magic.
Magic Level: S
Guild: Retired
History: Maximilian is a great and proud shipwright in the country of Minstrel, designing specialty airships to order. Once, though, he was an engineer for the Electrician's Guild during the war. He worked on the trains and the rail system, keeping his focus on things to keep their men safe, even if the trains were shot apart. He was against the shrinking of railguns, arguing that making them smaller would change their intended target. However, they shrunk and the war ended. It was agreed, then, that no more infantry railguns be produced, and the plans were destroyed. Maximilian was insistent.
From then on, he found himself on maintenance deployments. He met his wife while walking through a busy town square on a tour of cities and villages, assessing damages to infrastructure and planning repairs and updates as part of the Electrician's Guild. Her beautiful song and dance would inspire his premier design, a ship with a large, robust stage and projection equipment built-in, with performances like hers in mind. It was this specialty design that inspired Al-Gin to requisition a ship for his guild and his restaurant. An immense restaurant complex in the sky, with a stage for performances and a dock for ferries and supply ships. There would be guild quarters and crew quarters, and even some few very expensive hotel rooms.
Someone else who had caught wind of Maximillian's powerful yet flexible magic, and set a foul plan into motion, to take over the guild and make off with the powerful magic, magus in tow or not. Maximilian has been captive since, serving as a blueprint for copying Energy Make.

Just Another Hero

Crysalis had the window open to vent the strong scent of bacon, from his cooking bacon and eggs. His plan was to scramble to egg part way after letting it cooks just a little bit. But, as it started to cook, he thought he heard something. It was faint, hard to hear past the sizzling. Sometimes his eggs screamed at him, but... No, it wasn't that. There it was again. It was from outside! "Damn!" He cut the fire and dumped the contents of the pan onto his plate. Sunny side up, bleh. Oh well.

Someone addressed him, he turned, the second of two sunny-side up eggs hanging out of his mouth, "Mm? Mm!" It was Blizzard, asking if he wanted to join the fight outside. He slurped it up and swallowed it. "Yeah, sounds like they could use a hand." He took the bacon from his plate and put his plate in the sink. No time to clean up, unfortunately. He'd have to come back.

He heard explosions and turned toward the sound. These guys didn't care about collateral, either, apparently. Those kind of guys are the worst. "Before they cause any serious damage. Ruffians." There was a good street vendor near here, he'd stopped there for a bite to eat before. Crysalis took the kitchen exit to the alley. "Where'd this guy get all the-" another wave of explosions cut him off, this time with the sounds of breaking wood and shattering glass. Cliff thought he saw something leap up to the top of the building, and he thought that's where he could hear the villain now, too. But... He didn't exactly have the best offense, so what was he gonna do? And getting up there posed a problem. Another hero could get up there. For him, there were likely people on the street in need of help that he could get to efficiently. There were likely some injured, but hopefully no casualties.

Phoenix Wing: New Dawn

Trinity Stratos

Name: Trinity Stratos
Age: 21
Birthday: 4/27
Magic: Energy Make - Energy Make is a very volatile Make Magic. Due to its volatility, it is able to accomplish a great variety of things, from explosions to locomotion, and even flight. Raw magic power is it's substance, and Trinity must maintain her focus on a made object for it to remain extant.
Secret One: Moving Make - Energy Make, as a volatile, fluid make, can move like water and create a locomotion effect.
Secret Two: Pressure - By concentrating or vacating magical energy, a positive or negative pressure effect can be created.
Secret Three: Siphon - Usually done with a needle-like Make tool, or by touching a source of magical energy, Energy Make can steal magical energy. It uses the previous two secrets.
Arrows Magic - Using the Rainbow Quiver, Trinity can conjure various kinds of arrows. Elemental arrows are a staple, but she can also conjure things like arrows that become nets to ensnare, or a beacon and homing arrows. She can even make special arrows by combining Arrows with Energy Make, like the Love Arrow that gives some of her magic power to someone else. If she needs, Energy Make can draw from her vitality to make the True Love Arrow, capable of healing. That may be a technique she can still perform.
Bard's Legerdemain - Trinity can still manage to control instruments with her Bard's Legerdemain. While previously, she could coordinate an entire orchestra, she can only do three instruments at most anymore.
Solar Make - Trinity can grab light, in particular the light of the Sun, and use that as a material for Make, as opposed to using magical energy. Other light sources tend to be weak, but will work.
Energy Manipulation - The barest form of Energy Make. Trinity is able to feel the flow of magic in her surroundings. When it is dense enough, she can even manipulate it. Without meaningful magic power of her own, however, she must touch it, and it takes time to gather and use. She cannot reverse or deflect an attack in this way, it would happen too quickly for her to do anything meaningful. It is by this mechanic of her Make Magic that she can grab sunlight and mold her makes again and again.
Magic Level: D
History: The daughter of a noble family from Minstrel, she holds the power of the Lost Magic Energy Make within her. As a youth, her father, Maximillion, taught her not only how to use the magic, but also guided her in discovering the many applications of its power as he showed her how he used the magic to design airships. It was a power she enjoyed the use of in her everyday life, as she could easily form most anything she could need at a moment's notice. Tools, bowls or cups, a squeegie to dry her hair after a bath, a lift for something heavy, you name it.
Her happy childhood was shattered when a supposed customer sprang a trap, seeking to steal the secrets of Energy Make from her father. They captured Max, sealing him up in a machine to analyze the magic his body exuded, and before they could capture Trinity as well, her mother secreted her away. The woman was a musician, and while they were on the run from the dark guild seeking them, she taught her daughter the arts, and Bard's Legerdemain. They bounced around between their relatives, Trinity learning more magics from them as she did. Arrows magic and Requip, to hide the desired power of Energy Make from her pursuers. As time passed, the young lady grew tired of fleeing, and decided to hunt down the people that took her father her search lead her to Fiore, where she found her allies in Phoenix Wing.
Overexerting herself with a forbidden technique during the Magic Games two years ago crippled her magical power, leaving her unable to manifest most magics. The secrets of Energy Make are many, however, and in the months that followed, she discovered she could grasp the light of the Sun and mold it in the same way.
Lacking the confidence in her reduced abilities as a mage, she decided it would be best to step away from the career. Instead, the young lady took her savings and opened up a workshop, where she could use her Solar Make to make tools she could use to build and repair things, and do other inventive things, like alchemy.
Personality: Intelligent and kind, with something of a flare for dramatic flourishes. Even though she likes to show off, she can usually tell when to be more serious than that. She's not usually one to let an underdog go unaided, especially if she sees them as the good guy. Even if she thinks she's outmatched, she'll help from a distance and try to keep out of the line of fire. Recently, she's become very diligent in her crafting and alchemy, to the point of forgetting meals sometimes.

Appearance: Her white hair has grown out, and she's taken to occasionally putting highlights in it. Her bangs are typically drawn to one side, framing her slender face. Golden eyes will glow slightly when she uses her solar make. Though she is slender, she isn't a washboard, either.
Her thigh-length red traveling robe is trimmed with black and gold, and adorned with several trinkets, like a monocle for magnification and a spirit stone from her homeland. A patterned sash ties it together, and she often can be seen with a bandoleer filled with potions when she's out in the wilderness, hunting ingredients.
Additional Details: To compensate for her lack of magical power, she's been researching alchemical processes and attributes, including lacrima.

Regan can emit shockwaves from anywhere on her body at will. She can use these to empower strikes, as a defensive measure against things close to her, or for utility.

Just Another Hero

Clifford Blackwell had a quirk that made itself very difficult to hide in his current environment. If he really wanted to hide it, without risking exposure, he'd have to cover his arms and legs and be rather... Energetic. The problem with that was the climate. It was difficult for him to remain so enthusiastic and covered in this hot, humid weather. It was much easier, much for comfortable, and much safer to stay in costume and be his usual, low-key self.

So he was Crysalis. Clifford Blackwell was as his pupa, and he was wrapped in the cocoon of school, to become Crysalis, the hero. He'd made his decision to become a hero, and he knew what that meant. For him, it meant that his quirk could readily betray his identity, and he couldn't let that happen. Just a little bit of crystal growth on his face was all it would take. Someone finding a chunk of crystal he'd accidentally shaken off. His sleeve or pant leg lifting too much. And he could not let that happen.

So he was Crysalis.

Crysalis was, in fact, also in his way to the kitchen. Difference was, he was hungry and not looking for tea. Also, he was watching where he was going. He saw the girl coming, staring up into the beautiful blue, and he stopped to let her pass him. "You'll bump into someone that way, y'know." He smiled softly, ready to lift his hand in greeting when she turned toward the voice.@BlackMaiden

Hey, it's Pearl Jam no it's not. While his cooking can, yes, heal the body of ailment with the proper nutrition, he can also imbue meals or, more portably, snacks with magics that will create various effects. A spicy riceball or curry could turn into fire breath, for example.
Fire Magic
Learned mostly as a means of cooking without the need for fuel, Al-Gin also recognized the value of having a more impromptu defense measure available to him. If he were ever caught without an attack food on his person, he would be able to fall back on fire magic.
Magic Level: S - Guild Master
Personality: Al-gin is obsessed with food, so it is no wonder his magic revolves around it. He loves to cook and share his cooking, and views running a restaurant as a means to do that, not to make money. He understands that a restaurant is a business, but doesn't see the point in doing much more than making just a slight profit.

History Al-Gin grew up with a poor family, in a desert city. As such, cooking meals was very important to their daily life. When their parents could not provide enough money to purchase the food they'd need, Al-Gin would go out and forage for ingredients, bringing them back and cooking the meal, instead of letting his tired parents do the work. This was the beginning of his long career as a chef.
One day, while he was gathering, he ran into another chef doing the same. They went for the same herb, and that got them to talking, and then got the old man to teaching. Not just cooking, but a magic to go with it. Al-Gin was delighted at the things he heard he'd be able to do for his family, and he asked what he should cook for his exhausted parents. A simple dish of rice and meat would be able to restore their stamina, but they could not afford meat. The elder chef kindly gave him 3 kilos of meat to take home with him, telling him to chase the desire of cooking for others.
So he did, with great enthusiasm. He loved to cook and loved to eat, but even more, he loved for others to eat his cooking. He loved to hear their praise, loved to see their expressions when they were stuffed full, and loved to take criticism to improve his cooking. To him, cooking is life.
He sought out Maximilian Stratos to further his goal of cooking for the world over. He'd need to take his restaurant many places, and to do so, he figured that this man who put a stage in the air around certainly be able to help him. Imagine his dismay when his underlings had their own plans.
Secretly, he supports Maximillian during his capture, waiting for the right time to free him and rid himself of the vile betrayers in his guild, and bring back his precious Tomato Feast.

Villainous NPC Tidius Reinor

Name: Tidius Reinor
Age: 29
Magic: Magical devices
The Doctor has been researching a means by which he, one without magical potential, can use magic. He uses lacrima as fuel for Holder-luke devices that he's made himself, copying magics from guild mates and captured mages alike to make them.
Magic Level: -
History: "Dr." Tidius Reinor was ejected from his academic environment due to his obsession with magic, especially during a time magic has been so feared. His constant pursuit of magic power inspired fear in his colleagues, leading to his exile. This only fueled his desires, and he found himself a guild that he felt he could manipulate into serving his needs. He saw great opportunity in the ship Al-Gin had requested, and focused his plans around taking control of it for long enough to achieve his goals.
Personality: The Doctor is quite manipulative. He is very obsessed with obtaining magic for himself, whatever the means. He seems to be geniunely concerned with his guild's wellbeing, but is more concerned with his own ends, and is not above using his own people to reach his goals.

MIA NPC Maximilian Stratos

Name: Maximilian Stratos
Age: 57
Magic: Energy Make - See Trinity Stratos
Energy Projection - Maximilian can detect the flow of energy, including heat, electricity, and kinetic energy. He can even manipulate them, though he usually has to touch his power source. As such, kinetic sources pose a problem. Once he has it, he can then unleash it in a blast. Most commonly, he uses his make as a fuel for this magic, and visa versa.
Magic Level: S
Guild: Retired
History:
History: Maximilian is a great and proud shipwright in the country of Minstrel, designing specialty airships to order. Once, though, he was an engineer for the Electrician's Guild during the war. He worked on the trains and the rail system, keeping his focus on things to keep their men safe, even if the trains were shot apart. He was against the shrinking of railguns, arguing that making them smaller would change their intended target. However, they shrunk and the war ended. It was agreed, then, that no more infantry railguns be produced, and the plans were destroyed. Maximilian was insistent.
From then on, he found himself on maintenance deployments. He met his wife while walking through a busy town square on a tour of cities and villages, assessing damages to infrastructure and planning repairs and updates as part of the Electrician's Guild. Her beautiful song and dance would inspire his premier design, a ship with a large, robust stage and projection equipment built-in, with performances like hers in mind. It was this specialty design that inspired Al-Gin to requisition a ship for his guild and his restaurant. An immense restaurant complex in the sky, with a stage for performances and a dock for ferries and supply ships. There would be guild quarters and crew quarters, and even some few very expensive hotel rooms.
Someone else who had caught wind of Maximillian's powerful yet flexible magic, and set a foul plan into motion, to take over the guild and make off with the powerful magic, magus in tow or not. Maximilian has been captive since, serving as a blueprint for copying Energy Make.
Personality: Lord Stratos is a kind, somewhat lenient man, though he can be strict when it comes to morality.
Team Members: Lady Stratos
Three Strengths:
1. Clever
2. Inventive
3. Charming

Tomato Feast Signature Magic
Requip, The Chef
Chef's Pantry - The user is able to pull anything from Tomato Feast's walk-in pantry with fridge and freezer sections, provided they know where it is. They had better put it back properly, too. Regan hates it when the pantry is unorganized. You better stock it back up, too! Skilled users like Regan or Al-Gin can enter the pantry, though this is usually only ever done to organize it.

Chef's Cupboard - Same deal as Chef's Pantry, but with pots and pans. Don't mess 'em up, or Al-Gin will get mad.

Chef's Drawer - All manner of storing spoons silverware, ladles, etc.

There are no knives stored. That's a hazard. And your knives are your knives. Every wizard taught this magic by Al-Gin gets their own knife set to keep with them, that serve as a key to get in.

Al-Gin was conscripted by the Steam Corp for his burgeoning fire magic, as well as his incredible cooking. With his cooking behind their men, surely, they could fight twice as hard. It didn't take long before Al-Gin was pressured into being more aggressive with his cooking. To attack, instead of just cook for the recovering. This led to his being pushed to the front lines, where he fought, but after the fight, he was caught caring and feeding any wounded he came across. Before anything could happen, Al-Gin belched out a great cloud of smoke and disappeared.
After the war, he was hunted as a deserter, which is how he met Regan, and founded Tomato Feast with her. With her knowledge of the Electrician side of things, he sought out Maximilian Stratos to further his goal of cooking for the world over with an airship. He'd need to take his restaurant many places, and to do so, he figured that this man who put a stage in the air would certainly be able to help him. Imagine his dismay when his underlings had their own plans.
Secretly, he supports Maximillian during his capture, waiting for the right time to free him and rid himself of the vile betrayers in his guild, and bring back his precious Tomato Feast.

His constant pursuit of magic power inspired fear in his colleagues, leading to his exile. This only fueled his desires, and he found himself in the Electrician's Guild, working alongside mages. He had found a magic that might suit his needs, so he stayed close to it, waiting, using his position in the Electrician's Guild to his advantage.
It was years before Al-Gin requested a ship from Maximilian, and Tidius saw his chance. He had men infiltrate the guild in the years the ship was under construction, and sent in more men when the ship was completed, disguised as crewmen. He set everything to go down with a personal visit to congratulate them on such an impressive ship. He focused his plans around taking control of the ship once it was complete, seizing the magic for study, and holding the ship for long enough to achieve his goals.
Personality: The Doctor is quite manipulative. He is very obsessed with obtaining magic for himself, whatever the means. He seems to be geniunely concerned with his guild's wellbeing, but is more concerned with his own ends, and is not above using his own people to reach his goals.

_{Quirk Type}

Accumulation

_{Quirk Description}

Clifford accumulates a peculiar crystalline substance on his skin, typically along bones and not so much on his joints or places that he bends at. It isn't that the crystals don't accumulate in these places, just that any buildup is quickly shaken off as he moves. Though he is able to easily dislodge the crystals, himself, they are very difficult to remove by exterior force. Combined with their hardness, these properties make the substance effective armor.

The crystals themselves are formed from excess energy in his body, almost as though his body is storing energy in this way, instead of as fat. They can be used as a power source, with the right equipment. He can eat the crystals for an energy boost, and also press them together with enough effort. The crystals can absorb energy like heat or sunlight, and will grow slowly in response, over the course of days or weeks. Similarly, the crystals shrink as they emit power. Additionally, they contain an energy matrix of sorts, allowing things like data storage.
