The Grand Arcanium (An Isolated DnD wizard school rp, new roleplayers welcome)

Added a part where I describe his normal clothing, since I noticed that his picture only shows his face. Basically being a muscular man in an old but formal suit. Built it around his characteristic himself. Also, added fire magic to his class, since he is now using it.

Click.

Acion was caught by complete surprise.

Such recoil...

The gun immediately shot up 30 degrees into the air after a few shots were fired. And it would have continued even further if his finger kept gluing itself to the trigger. Right after the shots, Acion could feel his hand numbing a little bit due to how powerful the gun's mechanic had shaken him.

Acion took a few minutes resting before trying again. The same result.

Why? He was standing pretty much in perfect stances, having a solid base, leaning slightly forward, and holding it tightly, but not too tight. And yet the gun had retaliated so hard he couldn't keep it where he wanted it to be, despite the effort. The answer lied not only in stances, but in raw strength in itself. Putting it simply, Acion was not strong enough to handle it yet.

'Well, I guess I'm not fated to use you yet.'

But he would return later. When his training with the armor his sister bought him. And then he would use it again. And next time he would master it.

Putting the thing back in its original place, the winged boy continued to look in awe at the infrastructure of the gymnasium. It was indeed extraordinary to be able to use such equipment. He quietly repented himself for not trying any other of the simulations here. It looked awesome and very educational. Something that he would definitely require to enhance his skills and strength.

He would return here after school. For sure.

Changes made. And yeah, I'll keep what you said in mind.

@Spirit

Yeah, I'm cool with most of the revisions, though the nerf to only two balls is a little underwhelming. Well, that's actually my fault, since I only want the radius of exlosion to only be one meter or two. So if the enemy can dodge it well, he'll end up conceding the match. But it is a actually very interesting nerf, since it promotes a high risk high reward kind of fighting style. Kind of if you mess up, you lose. So if possible, I'll make the radius of explosion around 1.5 meters (which is not too small or too big I think), and currently, he can only create the balls three times. Since three tries I think are less risky, but still risky, and I'll fight using the above style. And fire magic, he'll use it as a method to lure the enemy so that he can use the balls as effectively as possible. And yes, he'll still have high chances of losing against fast and maneuverable enemy. That'll be one of his weaknesses. The other one, you already mentioned.

So basically, just increase the number of balls created to three. That is if you'll allow me. If not, then I'll try to manage. Don't get me wrong, I know how to lose. I'm more than willing to if it serves as plot development for either sides or both. If everything is settled and I'll edit my sheet as a whole.

And thanks for spending time reading through and give me feedback on it. I feel really good for having a GM who is willing to do that.

The Grand Arcanium (An Isolated DnD wizard school rp, new roleplayers welcome)

The history is kind of...choppy, since I want it to somehow match the personality I want to play. He is pretty strong, I have to admit, from the beginning, so if you want to nerf him, just tell me. But there is a fact that I want to play him as the kind of rival character who is simply there to entertain fighters who wanted to experience arena fighting. The element can also confuse you, so tell me if you have problems. Since it's written from my point of view and my way of explanation, I get it, but I'm not sure if you will.

“Greetings”

Name: Garuda Pacifier

Age: 19

Race: Human

School of Magic: Magic Application, Combat and Fire Magic

Alignment: Neutral Good

“I am as strong as my form suggests.”

Garuda boasts about his own ability

Appearance:

Mighty in his core is what describes Garuda. 180 cm tall and 74 kg heavy, Garuda is as expected of a Natron user, well-built and muscular from all the training he did prior to his arrival at Arcanium, and he took great pride in it as well. But behind the stature he possessed, he prefers to appear finely dressed in an iconic suit, a thing although old, but is a trademark of his days alive, and helps emit a certain charm to his characteristic. The suit is dark in color, and reveals a part of his chest, and thus revealing parts of his muscles, but not much. Despite the small informality of the costume, the rest of the suit relatively satisfy the definition of formal male clothing: long sleeved shirt, long-sleeved pant, elegant shoes, the two parts of the shirt held together not by buttons, but a belt or two. The collar was of the shirt was not fabric, but rather metal, hardened to emphasize his royal status. Despite this, the suit is flexible and enables him to fight without any difficulty caused by the costume itself.

“Prepare for defeat.”

Garuda entering battle

Magical Talents:

Garuda has a talent in the use of a common but not usually used element known as Natron. (The element is completely fictional, and the description below will explain it)

To put it as simple as possible, a Natron is a subatomic particle, which is harmless in its natural state, but the particle in its nature has high potential energy and heat when accelerated to a certain degree. The particle is found everywhere, in the harsh deserts of Hag’Dvad, to the calm and peaceful forest of Forest of Heria. Anywhere having oxygen, have this kind of particle, as it is virtually in the air we live. In Garuda’s country, it is considered the most efficient, numerous and cost-effective source of energy. But in return, you cannot harvest the energy by any conventional means, and you have to do it using magic. Its usage outside of being a form of energy, it can also be used as a form of weapon. A few of its usage in warfare are to cast it as a flying white sphere, in which trillions, or maybe trillions of trillions of accelerated Natrons are packed inside. The sphere’s exterior will then dissipate, freeing those compressed Natron particles, resulting in an explosion. The number of Natrons the caster can compress into a sphere will determine the size and power of the explosion, but it is generally more powerful than normal elements. Or it can be fired directly as beams, shaped into protective shields, or be molded into swords and then explodes as mentioned earlier. Its use can be very diverse and flexible. But its downside is that in order to harvest these kinds of energies, it must be harvested using magical power. And the process is extremely energy consuming. Overusing it can result in extreme fatigue or even death caused by exhaustion. In conclusion, a mage utilizing this power must assure he has enough stamina, and must be calculative, harvesting it only enough to conserve his own energy.

For the current time being, Garuda is only capable of packing several billions of these into a sphere only as large as a tennis ball, with explosion radius of 1.5 meters, and he can only make a maximum of three before his body could feel exhaustion. Trying to get to a fourth will get him hospitalized. His beams are unreliable, and cannot shape Natrons into weapons yet. Still, the explosion from the ball, although not big, can be deadly if you stand close to it.

Physically, he is tough-built and durable in order to keep up with the requirements. As his fighting style is a high risk high reward kind of thing, he also possesses a bit of knowledge about fire magic in order to support his main magical ability.

Weaknesses:

Garuda’s spheres are very powerful, and are his win conditions, but because creating them requires tremendous amount of energy, he can only create three of them, and so if he cannot win with three of them, he'll most likely lose the battle. Also, aside from the bit of fire magic and Natron talent he possessed, he had absolutely no magical prowess with other elements.

“Strength on its own is directionless. Pure determination is helpless. Only when the two join is a mighty warrior born.”

Garuda and his point of view of what makes a great warrior

Personality:

Garuda is pretty much plays the role of rival in the academy. Very confident, prideful and competitive, Garuda thirsts for the sense of battle and usually goes out to challenge others of his peers to a duel whenever he can. Despite being sent to Arcadium with a goal to be a more peaceful mage with abilities more governing than fighting, Garuda personally yearns to be a warrior for his people, and he desires nothing more than the thrill of battling and the threat of defeat.

The reason for Garuda to constantly challenge others to a duel is because he wants to entertain himself, and also he wants to find a worthy opponent (The reason why will be explained in the history sections) who is strong in raw strength and walks into battle with determination and desire for victory. And he usually prioritizes the latter requirement. Once he found the person who manages to exceed him in both categories, or at least exceed his own will, he will be very open to him or her, willing to accept losing to them, and being friendly and protective towards that person. But on the other hand, if a person is shown to be less enthusiastic in battle, his or her thrust for battle being unjust, or simply lacking, Garuda will not hesitate to show disappointment and even condescension and disrespect towards that person. But generally, he is relatively polite towards others, due to his upbringings in the noble environment, and has a common sense about justice and morality, as shown as although being battlehungry, he does not go all the way to get someone to fight him by using force, or preemptively attacks anyone.

By nature, Garuda is no means superior in the power of the mind, but through training and practice to meet his subjective requirements of a Natron user, he has become fairly smart, sometimes being able to calculate and foresee outcomes using logical reasonings and estimation, both in battle and in real life situation, though not all of it is correct. But at the least, he is not the type of person to jump to conclusion and act impulsively.

Character flaws: He is a bit too prideful, to the point of annoying arrogance can be hinted, and his desire to battle others can lead him into troubles that he could have personally avoided.

---

"Alister, you are a paragon of might who never stopped thriving forward. I would never accept losing to anyone else but you."

Garuda's feelings towards his deceased friend.

Character history: Garuda was born a son to a powerful warrior mage in the country of Acity, known for its considerably advanced technological development, notably in the use of alternative energy source, the Natron particles. Because of this fact, the country underwent a terrible war with the neighbourhood country, Frismia the Nordic, whose king was jealous of the thriving economy thanks to the use of Natrons. The war seriously crippled the economy of the country, and killing many of the Natron users, but thankfully, the combined effort of both the mages and the Royal Acitian Army managed to thwart the jealous king’s intention.

Born right after the war ended, Garuda was labelled as one of the rare crown jewels of the country, due to the Natron-manipulation power that he inherited from his father. After thousands of Natron-users slaughtered in the war, the king decided to gather all remaining Natron-users and potential ones together and provide them the best training condition possible so that they can use their ability to contribute to the rebuilding of the country. And so the boy was treated with all the luxury one commoner could never even imagine possible.

Garuda, however, saw things differently. He wanted to become more of a protector, due to his natural bloodline of warrior mages, and his sense of glory and thirst for a fight comes from the stories of his ancestors, and mostly from his father, who fought bravely in the face of the enemy. And during his childhood, he was befriended by a man known as Alister, who usually accompany him in his training. He was years older than Garuda, and possessed very powerful magical ability, capable of besting Garuda easily. He not only recognized Garuda’s potential, but he also saw his determination to become a warrior mage, so he acted as a mentor to him, and usually sparred with him in his leisurely time. Garuda respected the Alister for being the one to always be powerful enough to contend him. But he was ill-fated, being taken to the afterlife by a deadly disease.

Saddened by the loss of his best friend, teacher, mentor and most importantly, worthy opponent, Garuda began his search for another one. Shortly after, he was enrolled in Arcanium for the best education possible.

Great. I'm currently thinking of a mage with the ability to use some sort of white energy that is harvested from oxygen's particle, which is kind of complicated and a bit fictional scientific. So basically it's everywhere, its source is almost unlimited, but the fact that it is a lot more stamina consuming than other elements balances the power. I'll go to deeper explanation in the CS

Acion watched as Arsenal demonstrated on how to use the gun properly. Though each and every guns in the armory had their own instructions and guidelines, witnessing a real tutorial was always better.

After the teacher finished, Acion was finally able to use the weapon on his free will. For training purposes, he was given a simple Five-Seven with BB bullets. Taking the stances that Arsenal taught, Acion slowly raised his gun, as the training targets soon appeared in front of him, its distance varied. He had a variety of targets for him to choose.

BOOM!

But he hit none.

The recoil was a lot more powerful than he had anticipated.

'Try again.'

He did so, but still missed. The recoil was still a little bit too foreign. He fired a few more times, landing a few straggling shots in some corners of the board, but they were all off-targets. Still, getting the thing right for him wasn't a very difficult task, as Acion was strong enough to handle pistols well. The first few shots were for introductory purposes. The trajectory could differ from shots to shots, but its recoil patterns remained relatively the same. Through constant observation, Acion noted that the gun moved around 4 degrees upwards when fired, and his firing pattern was also 'shooting the sky'. So if he pointed the gun 4 degrees downwards, the line of fire would become horizontal.

Acion raised his gun again, this time pointing the gun slightly downwards, and fired. The bullet roared out of the gun as it broke through the sound barrier with complete ease by the help of gunpowder. The cold hard lump of metal sliced through the air and pinned exactly...on the target's outer rear.

'Hmm...'

Not exactly what he had hoped. But it was clearly and considerably better than the last few shots.

Let's try again.

Acion reloaded his gun and so the cycle repeated itself a few more times. Eventually, the angel with the pistol soon got used to the recoil pattern, and most of his later shots hit on targets. Well, at least landed on the place it should be landing on. Now let's try something harder. Perhaps moving targets. Acion quickly made the necessary adjustments on the computer panel, and the targets soon appeared. Moving targets. They were much more difficult, considering the fact that Acion must calculate the trajectory of not only the bullet, the gun but also the target itself. But he wasn't a total stranger to that. He had calculated and anticipated both his enemy and his own movements in mock fights, so the task of calculating a bullet's trajectory wasn't that much of a hassle, but it wasn't easy either.

The process repeated again, with Acion missing the first few magazines and then getting it just right. He wasn't an ace, and could never have aced in a single training practice. Luckily, the school allowed students to get access to its enormous, and somewhat suspicious, ammunition storage. That, combining with Acion's perceptive and quick to learn nature, was key to his quick adaptation of the weapon.

Now that he had managed to hit moving targets, let's boost the difficulty even further. With the LSAT!

Ok sure. It was insane. Moving from a pistol from a LMG was pretty out of the question for most gun users, even the one who had a lot of experience with it. But Acion didn't really want to wait right now. Not that he was being impatient, but he had to try it, to see if he could really handle it. And if not, to see the goal that he must achieve. Setting oneself a goal is the best way to not squander life away.

'How convenient'

On each and every gun in the armory, there were detailed statistics of the gun, its effectiveness, instructions on how to use the gun, or even how to hold the gun right. Acion wouldn't want to think about it, but if this armory wasn't Arsenal's, which was probably true, then the system was made entirely from a lazy teacher who was tired of tutoring students so that any idiot could learn and be able to use them by themselves. In any cases, this was a good thing for him.

Acion took the gun from the racket, and began to feel it. It was...lighter than he had anticipated, and a bit small and convenient for a LMG. He took a few minutes getting it right, and once so, he would take it to the testing field. Inserting the ammo magazine into the gun all according to instruction, locked, loaded, and ready to fire.

"A pleasure."

Brian, huh?

His posture and expression looked indeed competent, confident and strong. Hopefully this would be the one truly worth of his time, worth being his wingman. Hans in the past had had problems with trusts and stuff, but his ideology in its core hadn't changed much: Trust until proven disloyal.

There was a small elf girl who came just after Han's greeting with Brian, timidly asking for their approval to team up. She was a cute one, and having a girl in his team would be interesting, since it appeared that no one else was on his team. But the problem was that she wasn't assigned here by the system. She was on team one instead. And the thing was that in this world, everything was managed by some sort of computerized system that although Hans could not properly comprehend, a misaligned team would easily be detected. So however tempting Hans wanted to help the girl with her team switching issue, he would have to refuse, unless allowed by Willow.

"Sorry there, but unless you ask her, I can't really help." He said pointing at Willow, who was busy tending the others. "Because even if she doesn't pay attention, the system here would. You've seen it, don't you? The tablet. Don't get me wrong, I would welcome you, but I would prefer not to go against the rule here."

Hans patted the girl's shoulder reassuringly, as he continued.

"Return once you've asked."

Takeshi, huh?

He'll keep in mind the name.

Afterwards, Arsenal then led the entire room to a huge complex for training purposes, composing of many different room, including a sparring room, an armory, a VR simulator room, and a gymnasium. The school had prety much everything they needed. He'd expect no less from a top school in the city.

Acion was observing the complex in awe as Takeshi inquired if he had trained with any sort of weapon. Well...

"I don't usually train with a weapon, although I have been through a few clashes with swords and melee weapons back in middle school. For all these years I have been practicing to master my own art of quirk usage, and aerobatics. I'm still continuing to perfect it, though now I will focus more on the other necessary skills of becoming a hero. What it is, you should know..."

That was what other heroes like Mina or Dulga is better than him: equipment usage and raw strength. For now, his flexibility, techniques and agility had been reaping fruits for him, but becoming a hero with that just wasn't enough.

Turning away from Takeshi, Acion glanced around the room, again. The thing catching his attention immediately was the armory, containing all kinds of weapons. From the dangerous high explosive grenades, to the rarest of melee weapons, this school had everything. Acion payed specific attention to the gun section, something in which he had kept discreetly in mind. He came through the pistol section, the SMG section, until he reached the MG section, composed of many machine guns of all kinds, both light and heavy. Acion had weighted a few of these himself, and most weighted nearly 10kg. He could carry them just fine, but recoil was a different story. Acion had little experience, if not none, with guns, so if he didn't position it right, it would kick him back in the face...hard.

But as he was shaking his head at these powerful but incompatible guns, his eyes widened a little bit as he saw one. One distincted from the rest of the guns: LSAT light machine gun. It was half as heavy as the rest of these guns, and it was described to be light, obviously, flexible, agile and most importantly, had low-recoil. That was the thing: low-recoil. Something that Acion prioritized, due to the fact that his fighting style was less like an angelic swordsman, more like a steel fighter plane. He's make sure to keep an eye out for this one, as soon as he was properly instructed and permitted to get access to the firearm sections.
