Bio

So... Bio's are a thing now. Fancy.

Anywho!
25 y/o guy, currently student and living by myself, yada yada.

Veteran Roleplayer, with over 7-8 years of experience in both Pen & Paper and text based, with minimal LARP Experience. I have a great interest in fantasy settings and tends to dislike Post Apocalypse, or generally anything involving guns and modern weaponry. Gimme a sword and the ability to throw fire, and I'm happy.

I have relatively high standards and find myself somewhat disappointed if my posts are below 500 words, preferring ~1000+ whenever possible (sadly, not always easy). At the same time I expect similar standards from my fellow players. I also have a tendency to play female characters in spite of my being a guy, mainly because I find it more entertaining than playing the big burly guy.

Would simply a bus-sized dragon work? Since, you know, if everyone else is the size of a large house, or very much larger, then a bus-sized dragon could just crawl over them with ease. Perhaps a dragon that's less mythical dragon, and more of a lizard? A unique dragon, where there isn't as much heavy scales, which frees of range and speed of movement? Perhaps when dragon essence mixed with the human soul, a bit of a mess-up occured where part of the human essence mixed with the unintegrated essence of the dragon, which led to a less-dragon-y dragon shifter?And dragons are all I really have interest in. Or a half-man half-dragon, which would certainly be unique in the roleplay.


I'm afraid it's either full dragon or no dragon. But yes, a more lizard-like/sleek dragon is possible. However, we already have a dragon, so I'd suggest making a different one even if you are in the reserve. As for Wyverns, those are possible. They're dragon-like, but not as big and without the fire breaths. They may have other abilities such as poison spray instead, perhaps, or the likes.

Unfortunately, Kapu doesn't want us doubling up on classes, I. E. Only one Valkyrie.That spot is currently occupied by myself. As is Kitsune by Kapu, and if seems giant had basically been taken by the only other person to get a complete character sheet so far.And iirc, Harpy has been reserved.Sorry.


Indeed.
WilsonTurner said
They don't, but like me, you can make a app and they'll put it in the queue in case someone drops out.EDIT: Wait, would a wyvern rather than a dragon work?


Feisty-Pants said
Valkyrie sounds nifty....do you have room still perchance?


What he said, Feisty. You're welcome to make a character, and you'll be put in the queue for if anyone jumps out :)

And on a side note for future reference.....A 'smaller faster' dragon could be the Eastern dragons, which resemble long thin lizards with 6 legs and no wings, but they fly through the air by magic. Oriental dragons.


Monochromatic Rainbow said
And if the mythology matters, iirc the eastern dragons tended to be more wise sages and helpful in general.As opposed to burning down cities.


the Eastern dragons are the ones I would say are more magically focused; More powerful breaths, capable of summoning powerful winds (if you're an Air Dragon, for example). But yes, you could also make a Physical Dragon like that.

character sheet


There's only really two thing, and that is his levitation magic-thingie. Magic in your human forms aren't very powerful, if you have any at all. He would be strong as a human, yes, but he'll be stronger in his Giant form.

So this levitation-like magic would only really be powerful in his Titan form, allowing him to lift several tons. Also, for a Giant Titan, I feel like 25 feet is a little small. Perhaps 30 feet? That would put his height at a few metres above a typical (shifter) dragon's shoulder.
The second thing is really just a small mistake, and that's the fact that The Academy is a 3-year course, not 5 years. You start on the third year :)

: Asae Asumi: Female: 18: Dragon: :: : : : ::


There is... quite a lot of stuff with this character. First is her powers: She doesn't have any, nor does her parents. It was made perfectly clear in the first post where I wrote all the info that normal humans don't have any magical powers of any kind. Furthermore, even after she becomes a Shifter she won't have that kind of magic. Dragons (and generally Titans) have very little active magic, as they focus on brute strength, being incredibly durable and so on. A Fire Breath or something like that is the most a standard Dragon would have.

The second thing, I feel, is the biggest. It's basically her entire personality coupled with background. I get the feeling that she's a rather friendly person, but still utterly insane and unstable. No one would let someone mentally unstable like that join the army, let alone make them powerful enough to destroy an entire town singlehandedly. That's not to mention that Social services would have inteferred if she really did live under borderline torture and opression, mental and physical. I'm afraid that you character, as she is, would not be allowed to become a Shifter. She's just far too unstable.

I'll have to ask you to rework her personality and background to something a bit more realistic--as well as remove the 'Powers' she and her parents have. And try not to make it one where her parents pressure her as we already have that, and having all characters be pretty much identical doesn't make for a very interesting RP.

Um pardon me but is this a bad time to join?


I'm afraid so. We're very far in and introducing further characters will be very difficult, not to mention awkward. Sorry, mate, but I'll have to say no.

Hey peoples,I've read most everything, except maybe a paragraph or two, and I must say that I am very interested.First, before I make an application, I have several questions:

A ) What kind of 'senior' Shifter form would it be? If I were a Dragon Twin Soul, would I be half-dragon? Would I shift between human and dragon form? Does it matter?

B ) Would a tactical combat suit work for a half-dragon? Not a full armor set, since a dragon would already be armored, but strong titanium braces, with everything from a tactical heads-up display via hologram, to style shoulder-mounted weaponry?

C ) Would being known only by a nickname, and refusing to give out the real name, work?

D ) Final question: Would a dragon-type be able to focus more on speed and reflexivity? Even if it's a half-man half-dragon, that doesn't mean he has to be slow. Giving up the chance to drastically increase in size so he can become faster and quicker, lighter on his feet. Strong enough to be stronger than those around, but also fast AND strong enough to hold his own against a primarily fast, or a primarily strong character.EDIT:

E ) Is this open anymore?


1 - We're talking about a full dragon body, but depending on what kind of skills you want to focus on (speed and flexibility rather than brute strength and incredible defense) will affect what kind of dragon we're talking about. You could be a more wyrm-like dragon: Sleek, streamlined instead of bulky and muscley like the typical Western Dragon. Of course, they would be somewhat smaller than the tyical western dragon then.

2 - No. Whatever technical equipment can be made would be utterly useless. These Shifters, and magic in general, is so powerful that technological armour and weapons won't be of any help.

3 - You would be known by your birth name/true name by The Academy and other "high ups," but any other student might only know you by your nickname if you want that to be so.

4 - Much like I said in #1, dragons can be a bit quick and, but still sturdy and strong. Their biggest strength is that they are a good mix of speed, power and durability.

5 - I'm afraid it's not open anymore. We already have 8/9 players, and anymore will be too much. You can throw up a character and I'll put you in the "reserves", so if anyone jumps out I'll give you a shout and you can join :)

On a final note, like others also pointed out, I'd prefer if people don't double post with Shifter types. You can also always find another mythological creature that you want to be, and I'll give you a run-down of what Class they would fit under, and what I imagine their strengths and weaknesses to be.

Edit: Also, like Monochromatic said, you do change between your Shifter and Human form at will.

Is this no longer open?


Originally no, but... I think we can squeeze you in :)
Monochromatic Rainbow said
Alright, so hopefully the couple changes I made will suffice?I didn't cut down on the muscle, but at least she's not got a hawk face in human form anymore.


I forgot to tell you, but it's approved :P added under the Character List in the first post.
Monochromatic Rainbow said
Alright, I'll get to work on fixing those once I'm at my computer.And iirc, I did list the magic blast being short ranged, with the reasoning being the same as you said- it wouldn't make a whole lot of sense for a long ranged Valkyrie.


You did write that it was short range. I simply forgot ^^

I would like to reserve a spot for a Titan class. Infused with Giant blood, his shifter form would be about as large as a typical school bus if it were on it's end. Enormous strength and high durability. Uses any weapon he can get his hands on, even other badguys. I'll get a CS up tomorrow if this preview is accepted.


I see no problem with that. Sorry for the late reply, btw. also, just for the record, it isn't blood but "Essence", so something like a piece of their magic or soul.
After much arguing and many letters of pure vitriol, she was pulled from public school and began to

And began to what?

Alright... there are a few things. First is her Blast of Magic thing. I hope you're okay with it just being a medium-to-short range ability? Does really fit with a Valkyrie to have long-range abilities. As for her wings, I have found pictures of Valkyries with wings so I'm letting it pass.

The biggest thing, however, is her Shifter appearance. Valkyries were more than just warriors, they were also servants and lovers, meaning that they also had a very feminine side. I feel like your Alice is a bit too... masculine for a Valkyrie, at least in her Shifter Form. I would suggest changing her Valkyrie Body to be more feminine, at least have her face be kinder than usual. Remember that you become a hybrid of that kind of Mythic and her human self, so it goes without saying that she would become more like a proper Valkyrie. So... you don't have to make her any less muscle-y (though you can, if you want). I just ask that her face becomes kinder rather than more scowling.

Aside from that... pretty much good to go :)

I would like to Reserve the Dragon Titan Class, Ill post the Cs tomorrow since it's late today


Sure thing guys :) I think we're at max capacity. 8 players at the moment. Additional applicants will be put in a "maybe" spot, so to speak. So, for now, full team. Nice to have you guys ^^

Monochromatic? I'll give your CS a look later. I'm about to head out for a 4 hour train trip to visit my dad. I have my laptop with me so I'll reply later :)
