Hmm, still no one going first? this could be intresting.

God School

so, Who's up first for introduction? This is already getting interesting.

Academy Of The Arcane Artes

Ok, Cs Just got a huge update, Armour got removed, Mana-bomb got toned down, The full Bio got implemented. and the casting gun got adjusted slightly. oh and removed recklessness and added No-resistance.

Adam Gawked at the butterfly for a moment then shook his finger. "ow..." he sighed and then laughed, sitting down as instructed. "Most living, non sentient creatures don't like me." He explained and called up a small gun looking device, spraying his finger with a green goop which rapidly healed his skin. "something to do with exploitation of resources for the furtherment of information and knowledge." he then tilted his head, the butterfly was still eating insects. "Huh, it still follows its prime directive, a carnivorous butterfly. How peculiar." he then paused, looking round at others. curious as to what powers were on display. "Feel, think, have felt, have thought, It feels no more than a coin does, and thinks no more than a brick. consider it like a set of cogs in a windmill, Never having lived, never going to live, merely following the instructions I chose to put inside of it." He smiled. "We call them Automatons, Or Robots." he started to spin another construct out of strands of metal, humming to himself softly.

Won't be necessary. Again, t'was just something I felt like pointing out.Dunno too much about that kind of lore, you'll have to ask Cyn. For all I know, the grandson of the Devil might not even all that OP. Nor do I know if fallen angels or even angels themselves (the Judeo-Christian variety at least.) are a thing.EDIT: Cynder has said angels and demons are a thing, and that she might be find with a Lucifer kid depending on what brand of absurdities he can pull off (and would also require nerfing of other things like equipment depending on content).
He can use standard fire/darkness magic, Nothing more impressive than that, He isn't the son of lucifer, he's the grandson, Its not like he's walking round with demonic wings and a spade tail, But again, that's very much up for whatever fits in the mythos

0) Doesn't change the fact that Earth tech > Magitech since it renders most of that completely redundant. Random example: you have a gun that shoots elemental ammo, Earth has futuristic anti-materiel sniper rifles. Also, it doesn't address the fact that he shouldn't have access to this sort of stuff in the first place. It'd be Illegal if he did.
Oh I agree a earth sniper rifle would be firing AM bullets, However, (I don't know if you've seen rwby) in rwby they use dust to alline weapons and ammo with specific elements, freezing shit, blowing shit up, setting stuff on fire, Hell Ren uses toxic rounds. basicly that's what he is doing. as for it being illegal, he lives pretty much atop the maelstrom, Which means he has access to it much easier (not saying its not illegal)

1) That's even worse than if they were aligned beforehand! Now you have tech that can pull off this shit! And it doesn't address the issues presented.
well the mana in someone's body is un-aligned, all he's done is replicated a much lesser feat, it isn't directed, its just aligned and put somewhere, it'd be like having a fire sword or something exept it can change element, also as I said, size is a power limit, as well as a reuse issue.

2) I'm aware. Doesn't make the fact that she said so any less true.
My point was it was highly akin to rwby based weapons

3) Okay, that is just a horribly offensive (and not in the good way!) weapon design. What kind of manufacturer makes a gun that must be completely disassembled to reload?
one that needs to reload only after using the last resort tech and is trying to make it it not OP as hell. It was a balance thing

4) That makes... very little sense whatsoever. If he has a magical race and untapped stores of mana, he can use it. End of story, or there's no use in giving him innate mana in the first place. I am willing to buy it as an amplifier, though, just not a catalyzer.
A wizard cannot cast spells without his wand, Right? all he's done is put his wand in a gun, though I'm happy to rewrite it as an amplifier.

5) Let me get this straight. You have a ranged weapon that knocks out people for an hour, and is pretty damn near/completely impossible to dodge (depending on wave speed, assuming sound/light speeds) Read that again. That isn't even including the fact that, depending on how its waves propagate,
Its short ranged, 5m before the wave dissipates to the point at which it is no longer dangerous, also it has to be aimed at the head, and any defraction/deflection randers it useless, so it cant do jack shit through glass, or in water, or infact if there is anything but air in the way, so yes, someone with long hair may just shrug it off with a bad headache

.6) Lucis doesn't get hydrogen tech, and smuggling is illegal. See deep within the bowels of the chat, or ask Cyn.
This should get explained in my extended bio, i will type it up and PM it to you and Cyn in a bit

7) It's indeed the exact same thing. 'No-sell' means counters completely or something like that.
ah Ok, in that case I can remove it, Though I see as much of the argument is over the powersuit, I'll just cut it out and give him something else, how's that sound?

8) *sigh* If it's important to the character, and you don't have it in the CS . If it's important, put it in the CS. 'Short Bio'-title be damned. If it's important and needs to be hidden, you PM it to the GM. Seriously, it looks like you've already taken the time to write it out,
Yeah i will. shouldn't be to hard

!...Sorry 'bout that. Just needed to get that off my chest. So yeah, just lob a copy of that extended bio in group PM between me and Cyn and yourself (and any other GMs you wish to bring in, I recommend Lucius) or drop it here.
NP, and don't worry, shit needs to be balanced right?

*sigh* You're right. That's not recklessness. That's being a massive idiot.
No its supreme overconfidence, Idiocy is lack of knowledge, his is caused by such utter complete confidence in his own skills IE overabundance of knowledge

And it doesn't mesh well at all with his established traits. You say he's some sort of genius who hates fools and stuff, but then you give him . Also, he's supposed to be some kind of genius. He should if tech can do so or not (it can, to an extent).
Well he's done it once, See his pet, and thats really all he needs, a prof of concept

Alright. I can wait.I'd better not be seeing any magic copying, then. I've participated in enough RPs, power level discussions, and seen enough stupid, trite anime to know the power of theory when it comes to observing powers.
Derp, clearly I won't be hijacking powers unless they are clearly within his bounds (IE if someone uses a new firespell he understands, he might borrow it)

I barely understood a single word of that, to be honest. Are you saying that it's just a plot device to justify your character talking about peoples' spells? Because considering the rest of his skillset, you don't even a Navi running around. Not saying you need to get rid of it, just that the function you put it there is redundant.
OH I misread what you were talking about, also its not a Navi, its a fea spirit, key difference, one is a fairy the other is a incarnation, or part of an incarnation of the forests will. its not massively plot based or important, its just something to add to his char depth, like 'being good at singing' or 'being a master cook' its not going to actually help in combat situations, its just a bit of interest

Handgun needs rethinking, but is more or less fine barring alternate shooting. The assault axe scythe needs nerfing. The suit and crystals can get the heck out. Weaknesses need to be 'better'. The bio needs elaboration, and probably some other stuff.Oh, and yell at Cyn about the race.Also, sorry if I seem really pissed off - I'm not - or have offended you in anyway. And apologies for being so fucking late with this.On a related note: I'd actually be willing to you put together a magitech user that works in this mythos.

Relax, I'm used to stuff taking its time, so long as we're not still sorting this out when the IC goes live. I'll hop on it

Once again I'm in bold.

I'm not looking CSes right now. I was leaving Grey to deal with your CS, if need be, I'll look over it. You have fair point for most of the debate, but I'm not a mind reader and neither are my Staff members. We can't assume those details unless you explain it -- that being said, I'm willing to accept your points in regards to your character's origin, assault rifle and so on. However, I still feel like your CS is a little overpowered in terms of weapons and power suit, that sort of thing.Also, you and Arowne have close to identical CSes, both of you having the same name/nickname and similiar weapon/fighting style, however, I'd have to choose yours over him/her, since you posted first.Details are being worked out, please be patient. Thank you.

I'm fine to wait. I was just letting people know that I'm still here. As for explanation, Yeah, I done goofed there. I should have gone in to WAY more detail. lesson for next time. as for the power suit, I'll say this much; Its only ever used when he knows he's going to end up in a fight, IE on a mission where combat is inevitable, or in a tournament.
if Arowene changes the weapon/style I'll change my name, though that's more his/your choice.

...still waiting on Gray, or another Co-Gm to respond to my response in the CS debate.

God School

"It is a machine, I am a god out of the machine, god of technology, Deus, Ex Machina." He said with a smile "I can make, control, summon and otherwise generally toy with anything that can be considered technological/mechanical, be it a steam engine, or a digital watch." He held the butterfly out for her to look at, "See, filigree wings, powered by a bio generator." He said with a grin. "Its to keep the bugs away mostly, but its also quite nice to look at. oh and yes, shaking hands is the right thing to do. Most of us won't be to fussed about that." Adam seemed very light hearted and welcoming,

God School

no idea. I assumed since Adam was no longer getting berated the SB had just gone poof.

God School

Adam nodded to the Newcomer who sat next to him, he'd been on the edge, latest to join. giving her a warm smile he held out a hand. "Adam, Deus Ex Machina." he introduced himself and nodded "I'm not sure what exactly is meant to be going on, I kinda missed the start of the lesson" He inclined his head towards the butterfly that was still gliding round, causing it to flutter over and touch down on his shoulder. "And who might you be, I guess from the dragon you are of the eastern pantheons?"
