I'll try to get this up and running this week, had quite the full weekend so put this to the side until things could settle down.

I'm having way too much fun with my Legend of Zelda Encylopedia. This is the game that got me into roleplaying so have a lot invested in it's lore and stories. Too bad can't have all the games too.

Alright so looks like we'll go with the second option then so we'll more quickly get into the meat of the story. So everyone will be near the start of their new careers so they'll still be getting used to it. Maybe a monster or two under your belt at this point that you were able to handle yourself. Now the monsters though will get to be unfair so cooperation will soon be needed.
@Lord Wraith Well this should be interesting, I see nothing wrong or anything that would get in the way of my character so shouldn't be a problem. Should make for some interesting dynamics.
Well been really busy and distracted with a lot so haven't gotten around to finishing up my first little plot yet. Got a little in trouble at work so was a bit stressed along with trying to set up another role play. Hopefully I'll find the time and energy soon.

HAHA, whoops can't believe I posted it in the character tab, was using it for the mentions and forgot to switch over.

So mentioned everyone who has been accepted because I have a question for you. There are two 'starts' we can do: One, where powers have not yet been bestowed on the characters, or Two, where everyone has already gone through Entity orientation. In version one this lets you establish in your initial posts what your character was like before everything went topsy-turvy, while version 2 has everyone already sealed the deal and neck deep in the monsterness already.
Just wanted your guys opinions. Either option works though of course the start will drastically change along with the pacing. Option one let's you fully flesh out your character's development and growth, while option two let's you drop right into the action immediately, course even in option 1 I plan to get the first encounter off very quickly after the initial posts.

Oh, hold on a second, she just has to post something real quick. Yeah, wait a minute - she's touching up a photo. Do you mind?! Gosh. Clover's phone is a window through which she lives her life and actually she'd rather be inside anyway. With ten thousand followers she feels like she's on the right path. Do you think she should post this? Hey, take a pic. Anyway, Clover is an active student otherwise she wouldn't have anything to blog about. The baseball uniform looks great in photos, the dance hall has the best lighting on campus and she's fluent in Mandarin... but the club doesn't know that.
Clover is caught in a bubble, her character hasn't been sculpted by the struggle and harsh reality of life. She's naive, a bit conceited and her priorities are out of order. It's unfortunate because the truth is she has a lot of potential, she has a bright spark and it's not from her phone. She isn't a bad person, not in the least - she just needs a new perspective to blossom. Clover doesn't have many friends but if she did, maybe they'd see she can be kind and reliable.

Clover can materialise thousands of emojis like a colourful avalanche of small stones. The individual emojis are weak but the sheer number she can accumulate create something powerful.
Clover summons a single emoji and can scale its size to suit its purpose. The emoji will retain the characteristics of the thing it represents, for example, the bomb emoji will explode.
Clover snaps a selfie and uploads it to social media, an incredible beam of light bursts from her phone - its power depends on how many likes her photo got but it usually incinerates everything in its path.
I'm having flashbacks to my time in Korea. A very unique power set and interesting profile that really shows off her character. So I'll say accepted.
Ok, so I should be able to get this started soon enough, I'll wait just a bit for the current people still working on character sheets.
@Spectral Accepted, mostly that last bit was just me musing to make sure the concept could work in my head in role play terms.
@Dumb1And1Lazy Well we got our first pure physical fighter, accepted.
As for exactly where Angel City is, frankly I don't really care because it is annoying to try and find a physical location. Still, let's just assume it is somewhere in the US.

Hey just a heads up I might not be able to participate in this, not due to a lack of interest or time, but because I really messed up my knee somehow and it hurts a lot to sit down. :(
Take care of yourself!
@Spectral Ball-and-chain is an interesting power set especially with the transformation bit. Wasn't sure about the sapper power at first when I read it, but since the draining power will depend on the type of monster it will be easy enough for me to decide which monsters the effect would actually be useful against. A lot of the strong monsters will just shrug such an effect off but the recovery bit will still be quite useful even against the big boys.
@Kierankaos For some reason thought I already talked about the reworked sheet, anyway it should work now so go ahead an put it up in the character tab.
@sassy1085@Dumb1And1Lazy Just poking to see how your characters are coming along.
@Kierankaos Alright so a few things need changes. First let's not have the entire sheet bold, makes it look kind of like a giant blob, leave the bold for just the categories themselves. Second, probably a good idea to put some spacing in there, especially having a space between the two paragraphs in the background but then no space afterward to separate the abilities section looks weird. Abilities section might look better too if you put them in a list format.
Now as for the abilities themselves. Just for clarification the speed enhancement is beyond the extra base stat boost the magic gives him in the first place correct? Just making sure you're not mistaking the base stat boosts that everyone gets regardless of their magic.
Now for the teleportation magic, while I think it is fine I do have some questions. It says he can do it in one direction, how exactly is that direction determined? For example is it the direction he's facing? Does he have to think of where he wants to do first? How does he determine the direction of the teleportation? Once that is figured out should be fine.
So the ability to reflect all damage even for one second is pretty strong, especially since you have made it a potentially entire party buff. You did give it a drawback, making it unlikely he could use it more than once which is good but I feel it's still too vague and needs adjustments. First, how does he go about putting on the effect? Is there a magic word involved? How does he put it on other people? Second, using the term damage implies that the attacks themselves are hitting the target but instead of hurting the intended target that damage is somehow transferred back to the attacker. This is kind of strange and a little too much of a rule breaker so instead it would be better if you changed it so it is merely a reflection ability, reflecting the attacks back on the attacker.
Then there is that last ability, which frankly seems less like an ability and more just like observation skills. So does he gain these observation skills only when he puts on the magic or has he already naturally been like this? Anyway just doesn't seem so much an ability as just using his heightened senses to notice things about the monsters.
Looks like a lot I'm sure but really it's not that hard to fix, look forward to a neater and reworked sheet!

@Duthguy Character looks fine, accepted.
Yes it's general manners to post here first and then post to the character tab once approved.
@Dumb1And1Lazy
While I like the character there is a bit of a problem with the backstory and the monster mechanics. Obviously I only recently added the magic rules so you didn't know about it until now, but with how memory works with the monsters it would be pretty much impossible for your character to know what happened on his first viewing of a battle. Also the friends wouldn't actually be dead, they would just revert to a pre-magic state and completely forget about everything that would happen, though if the monster that killed them is still alive and decided to show back up...then they would be dead each time it appeared again. Rarely happens but could be used as an interesting plot point you could use.
@IceHeart sorry, still not really used to this. Should I repost here?
