If you're buying "health food bars" make sure you check the sugar content. A little natural sugar is normal, but it ain't heathy if it has 20g added sugar.

Just shout to the heavens "UWOH SEGGS" and wait for divine inspiration. Or your family's disapproval. Whichever gets there first.

I love when I shovel myself out, drive through a snowstorm to get to work on time... and then my boss calls me 5 minutes after when I was supposed to arrive that he's not coming in and to go home...

Well, since this has gotten some traction (it looked like it wouldn't take off for a while... so I hesitated), I'll post my character sheet soon. I actually came up with a RWBY team a while ago and wrote them all down, so I have four potential candidates, though I heavily favor two of them. I can post more than one if you're interested or see the need for an extra character.
We have made contact. I repeat, we have made contact. Big lizard is on the scene.

That's really bad military talk for: we found the wyvern.
Rurik's mouth formed a thin, tight-lipped line as he stared at Verin's strange and embarrassing behavior. What. The. Hell. Rurik blinked in confusion. It didn't help that his currently enhanced hearing made Verin's horrendous wyvern calls all the more obnoxious. But he heard something else too.

A rustling in the bushes. In the direction Verin was heading was large boulder, easily a few dozen tons of rock, and that was just what was visible above ground. The faint rustling gave way to a scratching sound, something hard grinding against something else hard. Something was climbing the far side of the boulder where they couldn't see. He also heard the unmistakable sound of scales sliding over the stone. Something with claws and scales was there, he was sure.

Rurik quickly came to a conclusion: if Verin walked by that boulder, there was a good chance he'd be a dead man.

"WAIT!" Rurik shouted just as Verin was about to reach it. A moment later, a large, green mass peeked over the edge of the boulder. Rurik saw fangs and scales glistening, but he was focused on Verin. Just as the wyvern reached the boulders summit, Rurik reached Verin. He grabbed his collar of Verin's jacket and pulled him back, and then outright lifted him and threw him backwards.

A moment later, there was a flash of green and white and scales and claws sped by, followed by a crash and a cloud of dust as the wyvern hit the ground where Verin had been about to step. Rurik's eyes went wide and his body went stiff, The wyvern craned its neck around, and suddenly Rurik was nose-to-nose with the beast, feeling its breath wash over his face. If he'd taken another step whilst saving Verin, he would have been pounced on!

A twitch of movement, and Rurik snapped back into motion, jumping back as the wyvern's jaws parted and snapped back shut where his head had been. It's jaws were big enough to take their heads off. In fact, it was just big in general. It's skull was early the size of his torso.

Once safe from being bitten, Rurik ended his retreat. He saw the wyvern pause, it was confused. Why wasn't he running, it must have been wondering. Why was this puny creature staring it down? But stare it down he did. He took a step forward, and the beasts eyes narrowed. Another step and it's body tensed and its jaws parted ever so slightly. So that was the limit then, how close he could get before breaking the stand-off.

He took another step. As expected, the beast snapped forward, jaws aiming to rip him in two. As expected. He lunged to the side, evading the deadly fangs.

"BEAR CLAWS!" Rurik's hands began to glow and the skin on his forearms took on a darker tone. He made a fist, and rammed it into the side of the wyvern's jaw. It's head was snapped to the side and it pulled its long neck back, shaking its head. That had hurt it, though Rurik had felt the hardness of its scales. It was like punching iron. However, it lowered its head and began to back away.

Well, that had been easy. It must have already seen the threat they posed. Job done.

His celebration lasted about two seconds before he caught the dangerous glint in the creature's eyes. He'd made a slight miscalculation. He had just enough time to raise his arms in front of his chest before the wyvern spun, twisting its body around and slamming its tail into Rurik. He was lifted off his feet and flew back, past Verin, bounced, flew past Chloe, and landed face down in the dirt.

Slight miscalculation. At least his magic had kept his arms from snapping like twigs...
That rule doesn't apply. Marc said so (I think...?).
Post damn you.
Ssshhhh Rune, shhhh, the battle's over.

Right now I'm more concerned about the post Mystech said he was working on four hours ago...

If the character ends up being a problem like we were worried about, we can slam the hammer of justice down later and revel in the "I told you so's" that we'll be free to spew from our cocky, entitled little mouths. But until then, let us live in peace and harmony, and hope that day never comes.

Though you do make a good point what with the lost magic... that confuses me.
Lord Marc has spoken. I shall defer to his judgement and, as the character's personality section suggests we should do, I will judge him based on his actions if he's accepted.

My apologies, I feel like I sort of ended up starting an argument when I spoke up earlier. I was just a little, erm, overwhelmed I guess by his vast array of abilities and traits. I'll keep what you said in mind if/when other characters are submitted in the future. And maybe to be safe I'll just keep my mouth shut and only give my opinion when it's asked for :P
Added a spells section to my CS and an extra sentence to the magic section that clarifies how his attacks work a little.
Oh yeah, mystech saying that reminds me. I've been meaning to add a concrete spell list to Rurik. If anything seems out of order, let me know. I'mma go edit that in right now.
My problem isn't with any one thing, it's the fact that he's an all in one package. He's smart, has crazy powerful magic, and lost magic, and he has his own martial art style or whatever it is, and... *sigh*

Well, it's up to Marc. Maybe he'll be better in practice than he looks on paper. This is just my opinion.
Well, I don't run this RP, but here's my opinion...

No. Just no. It's been a long time since a character sheet has screamed "Mary-Sue" at me this badly.

I mean seriously, every time you come close to describing some sort of weakness or personality flaw, you immediately go back and describe how he isn't that bad. He's arrogant, but not above praising opponents, he's cold and careless but gains respect through his actions, he has no martial arts training but he's amazing at hand-to-hand anyway... while also having crazy powerful magic.

Oh, and he's super smart and stuff.

And are you serious? "Despite not knowing other magic styles he does have enough knowledge to tutor others in their magic style. He can also identify magic from seeing it's effects making investigations a relative breeze."

And all at the young age of 23... what a prodigy.

I may have overstepped my bounds here, and if so I apologize... but I really think this character needs a looooot of work. Starting over might even be better.

Edit: OK, went back and saw the post you made where you explained what you wanted to do with your character. Makes SOME of what you put make sense, but for the most part my opinion still stands...
