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.

There's still LittleMist, but haven't heard from her since I replied to her character. Then there's Wilson and Feisty-Pants, although I haven't gotten any reply from Feisty after I offered her a spot. She's online atm, but I dunno if she's ignoring me or just hasn't noticed my PM.

Anywho, I think as soon as we get one more person we can begin. I like between 6 & 8 players.
I'll try to have a post up tomorrow. Have been feeling way too hyped about another RP to feel like posting here... 'bout time I get back, though :p
So the teeth are filed down? Alright. As for the whole Sylphide thing... Yeah. She pretty much waved her hand and, as you so eloquently put it, swept it a side in "Ain't got time for this bullshit" kinda way :p

Also, check your PM. Sent you a message. I'll have him added to the Approved list in a moment.
Alright... slightly fucked up, but interesting character to be sure. I assume his strange view of reality and his morals is a result of obsession with the Otherworld and the Fae, mixed with the sadness/semi-depression of his Parents' deaths? He's not so much out of line that the Academy will kick him out. At least, he stays in line because he saw the scary side of the otherwise kind Sylphide (she's in some ways similar to Sindri, in that she is kind and gentle, but she, like any other, is capable of getting angry... and people should know never to piss off one of the Fae).

There are two, relatively minor, things that I took notice of. One is his sharpened teeth. I looked it up and I couldn't really find anything about such things occurring naturally, at least not to the extend that I think you intend. If, however, it's just somewhat larger canines, or filed teeth, then it's alright. The most I've been able to find about naturally sharp/jagged teeth is something like this.

Aside from that, I'd say he's pretty much approved.

There is, however, one last thing which I assume is a typo.
and can be sometimes simply brushed aside by adept Fae.

You mean "Shifter" not "Fae" right? Because not all Fae use powers similar to his, and others such as Demons (or Spirits) might even use stuff similar to that. The will of the target (and their perception of "true reality") is what should determine if they can break it. Not their magic and powers.
Alrght, well one thing jumps at me almost immediately: His appearance. You're writing his Appearance as if he's an Elf or somethin along those lines, but he can't be. The Mythics flat out refused to fight for the Humans and Earth, but offered to "awaken" their own magic (via the Shifter Process) to give them a fighting chance. Sindri is a human, not an elf. So he doesn't have elfine ears or stuff like that.

Secondly is that you only have one Shifter form. That's one of the differences between this one, and Shifting Worlds. One "form" only. And his powers... At least his Glamour Power is basically mind control, and while such things might exist to an extent, I feels a bit too powerful with how they can't do anything to resist if they've fallen for it. I know that you said that it won't work on all Shifters, but I'd still like if you at least added that it isn't an instant win button against those who doesn't automatically resist it. You don't have to tone it down so much as make it clear that you can't just make everyone commit suicide without effort.

Anywho, the next bus is coming soon so I'll stop here. I'll read the Background and Personality when I get home.

Oh, and one more thing, can you make the "Background" "Personality" "Powers" etc bold? The [ b][/b] thing (without the space in the first one). It makes it much easier to read and see where something ends and begins.
Bah. Missed the bus. I'll give it a look while I wait for the next one.
Alright. Philip has been added to the approved list :)

Eldritch, I'll give your Eldritch Abomination a look later. I'm just about to head out.

BTW, has mine been fully accepted as well? Reason I ask is because it's not on the first post yet. Anything I need to add/change?


You have yet to correct the part about his touch-based telekinesis and how he has less in his human form and more in his titan form (currently it's the opposite, which it shouldn't be). That's why I haven't fully approved him yet. I think I pointed it out once or twice before.

Made my edits. Lemme know if it's better now.


It looks good to me :) Approved ^^

Concerning the personality thing about how the mind doesn't change, it actually would, for some in a certain way. For example, if I were to make my character a more vicious type, then being in his Shifted form would give him a great deal more confidence, and would quite possibly make him far more vicious than before. His confidence in himself would increase just by being bigger; armed with poison and shoot-able spikes, he may even attack his allies if he thinks he can do more damage to an enemy. Not an actual attack, but more of a shoot-a-spike-into-side so that he can catch up and take a kill, or so he can maul an enemy or even just escape cleaner.But that's if I'm a vicious character. You'd have to actually work with him to get him to be more balanced.


Certain characteristics may become "boosted" or something like that when you Shift, but his personality stays the same. He'll still be him, with the same knowledge and understanding, but braver and more confident. Same way Lily may be slightly more narcissistic when she's in her Fox Shape (because, well, she appreciates the female body more than most girls :P).

So personality/mind stays the same, but certain characteristics can change.
