@Raging Fenrir I'm interested as well.

I, the Demon King, Will Summon My Own Damned Heroes!

Another level up. These things were coming a lot thicker and faster than Oberon had originally expected, not that he was complaining; the amount of battles that they had partaken in was likely a big part of that. The constant interruptions prevented him from spending as much time as he would have liked on experimentation but when it resulted in increased mana capacity and free skill points to spend he couldn’t complain.

Seeing the level up menu also gave Oberon a chance to get a progress report on the skills he was attempting to develop, as well as a few that he didn’t know about. Mana Dart and Minor Regeneration being on the list on unusable skills meant that he was on the right track with some of his ideas, but unfortunately neither skill was as developed as he had hoped they would be.

A sudden shout from the stricken rat in front of him startled him out of his thoughts, the level up screen disappearing as he whipped his head around to face them. It seemed he wasn’t the only one who had levelled up and the rat, whose name he should probably ask at some point, had just put a bunch of points into poison resistance. Probably a smart idea, all things considered.

“Heal just the burned area? If I restore your hit points it should heal all of your injuries anyway, if I understand this spell correctly. Besides, I can do one better. Six points into ‘Lesser Status Heal’.”

Oberon allocated some of his skill points into the partially complete skill, a system message appearing as he did so informing him of his new ability. Wasting no time he immediately cast it on the rat, and used his Magic Analysis to get some information on his new spell beyond what the system message would have told him. For good measure he then cast Minor Heal once more to top off the Dire Rats health, focusing the spell on the area around the acid burn as requested just in case that made a difference. “Ok, you should be good to go? It’s a new spell so just to be sure I need you to say ‘Open status menu’ for me. It’ll open up a system message and should let you know if the poison has been cured.”

As he was explaining, Mourningstar floated passed holding a small satchel and muttering something under her breath about ‘getting stronger’. He heard the slime he had helped earlier shout after her, but if the Wisp heard him she wasn’t showing any signs of responding. She was moving away from the bonfire and with the little cache of supplies she was carrying it looked as if she was planning on leaving; why she would do that or what her plan was, if she had one, he didn’t know, but with everything that was happening right now and with a counter attack from the Goblin’s probably coming any moment it wasn’t the best time to be wondering off alone.

Not that it was ever safe to be alone in this cave.

Climbing to his feet Oberon pushed off of the ground and flew to catch-up with the Wisp, his upgraded flight allowing him to move slightly faster than Mourningstar. He flew past her and swung in front to block her path. When he spoke he tried to sound gentle and concerned, so as not to sound accusatory. “Hey, are you going somewhere?”

I'm really unclear on what just happened. If Naiji dead? Are the elevator doors blocked by rubble now?

“They are probably trapped here like us.” Alastair unconsciously stepped back until he was up against the wall, leaning his shoulder against it, as if seeking some meagre protection from it. “But that doesn’t meant they will be friendly. We should be careful.”

A loud roar rend the air, an animalistic noise that continued for several seconds as it echoed through the seemingly endless passageways they found themselves in. Alastair ducked his head further inside his hood as this was followed by a low booming sound that he could feel through the ground much more strongly than the footsteps before. Another, smaller crash came immediately after this which was in turn followed by a cacophony that sounded suspiciously like raining debris.

Silence reigned for a few seconds before suddenly, disconcertingly, Alastair began to laugh; it was not a pleasant sound. It was a weak, wheezing laugh that could be mistaken for a coughing fit; a laugh that sounded more like madness than mirth. “Maybe this labyrinth has a Minotaur. We should – we should probably find a new path.”

Ok, I've added a history section, changed his name a bit and added him to the tab.

I'll look for another image tomorrow, that one is just way too small. I'll cut it straight out of the source and crop it down myself if I need to.

Soul Eater RP (not begun yet, everyone welcome)

Aleksandar “Alex” Mistreski

Name: Aleksandar “Alex” Mistreski
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Personality: An easy going person with a confident attitude, Alex walks through life with a relaxed self-assuredness that is at times frustrating. He is not the kind of person to get worked up about the small things in life, or the large things for that matter. He does not worry when things go wrong, or agitated when the unexpected happens; on the one hand this means he is able to keep a level head when others would panic but it also means that problems tend to spiral out of control because he overestimated his ability to deal with them or he just didn’t think it was worth acting about them.

He is someone who dislikes complications. He has simple tastes, a simple lifestyle and a simple, straight forward approach to problem solving. He has confidence in his strength above all else and isn’t one to think too hard about a situation, instead preferring to charge ahead and trust that he is strong enough to succeed; some would call him decisive, others an idiot.

This confidence also means that he cannot resist a challenge. For someone so easy going he can be surprisingly competitive and is easily riled into competing with others, the otherwise laidback Alex coming to life when there is a winner to be crowned and a first place to be taken. He takes challenges seriously and a friendly contest is never just a friendly contest. He is not a great loser, with a tendency to sulk, but he can handle a defeat with some grace assuming the contest was fair and he gave his all. A loss in a friendly game he will mostly just shake off and not worry about, but a loss in a serious competition will take him longer to get over. Alex is not one to hold grudges though, if anything considering them too much effort to maintain, and he can always pay them that loss back in the future.

Partner: N/A

Faction: Shibusen (Demon Weapon Meister Academy)
Student Class: Exceptional

History: Alex is the only child of Sostratos and Berenike Mistreski, a Meister and Weapon pair who have resided in Death City their entire lives. Alex’s family has a long history in Shibusen having resided in Death City ever since his ancestor showed signs of Meister abilities and the family was brought to the city two hundred and fifty years ago. Originally hailing from Macedonia, the Mitreski family has produced many Meisters in its time, with Alex being the ninth generation.

However, despite its deep roots the Mitreski family is not particularly influential or well known within the city walls. Its Meister’s have never been particularly successful or powerful; many retired early, others died, but none ever had much success with producing a Death Scythe. Most settled into the normal student group and stayed there, some failed to even make it to this level. Only Alex’s Grandfather, now deceased and for whom he was named, ever reached the level of an exceptional student. However, despite his talent he too was unable to make his partner into a weapon of Lord Death, failing in every attempt to claim a Witches soul and finally retiring. He died several years ago when Alex was young.

It was he who raised Alex, at least at first, since his parents were still very active at this point and spent long days or weeks abroad hunting Kishin Eggs. He taught Alex to fight from a young age, determined to prepare him for when his Meister abilities would no doubt begin to show themselves. He also taught him about their family, telling him their history, stories accumulated over the years from his own adventures and those that were told to him by his own father and grandfather; stories reaching back even to before their time in Death City, when their family still lived in Macedonia.

He imbued in Alex a desire to become a Meister, although it was always a given that he would be one and always spoken of as an inevitability, his grandfather was the one who made it sound like something he wanted to do.

When Alex was ten years old his grandfather passed away, prompting his parents to take a step back from their work and spend more time at home or at least closer to it. Alex’s father has taken over as his tutor and mentor, continuing the training his father started.

To Alex, being a Meister is something he always wanted to do; there was no need to consider doing anything else. While he was attending regular schooling, he would not pay attention in classes because he felt that he wouldn’t need the information for what he was going to do. He would work hard during gym class, genuinely enjoying the subject and having a competitive streak that wouldn’t allow for anything less, but aside from this he saw schooling as something to fill the time until he could attend Shibusen.

Luckily for him, Alex was something of a prodigy when it came to being a Meister. Only two years after his grandfather passed away Alex developed the first ability of a Meister; soul perception. And at age thirteen, during a training session with his father, he learned how to perform a soul purge for the first time.

They were sparring outside and his father was pushing things further than he usually did. Alex, frustrated with how he was being beaten so easily was beginning to lose his temper and wasn’t performing as well as normal. After knocking Alex down for the tenth time, Sostratos decided to give his son a push, tauntingly asking if he would ever make it as a Meister if this was the best he could do.

Something snapped inside Alex and without really knowing why he charged and threw a wild punch at his father, something rising up within him. His father easily sidestepped the clumsy attack and Alex instead hit the tree behind him. Instead of the pain he expected Alex felt that ‘something’ inside him flow down his arm and out of his hand into the tree.

The bark splintered, the trunk buckled and the tree fell.

Without missing a beat Sostratos said that they would begin the next phase of training tomorrow, and that he would enrol Alex at Shibusen when he could do that at will.

Alastair made a non-committal noise of agreement rather than respond to Ash; truthfully, he did not know if it was possible for him to die anymore, it was likely he would end up walking these halls for eternity if they could not find an exit. There was no need to let Ash know that however, it would likely only upset her.

People always reacted negatively when they found out about his… peculiarities.

“Then we shall keep walking. If we continue moving forward, we will find the edge of this place eventually, yes? The exit must be at the edge, somewhere, if one exists.”

Shuffling forward for a while longer, Alastair slowly came to a stop when he began to notice something out of place. There was… something that had alerted him. He didn’t know what but his instincts told him something or someone was near. He turned to look in every direction that he could, he closed his eyes and listened carefully, but he couldn’t see or hear anything. Even He couldn’t sense anything.

Alastair was about to dismiss it as paranoia when finally it clicked. “Can you feel… shaking? The ground is vibrating, rhythmically. Like footsteps.”

Pokemon Masters: World Cup

@Balthazar007 Things seemed to have slowed down a little bit. How many characters were you hoping to get before starting?

Here's my first side character. I'll probably add another two or three when I get the time.

Jackson Farrow

Name: Jackson Farrow
Alias: N/A
Title: Battle King
Age: 27

Appearance:


Personality: Jackson is a fiercely competitive person who relishes a good challenge. Enthusiastic and carefree he takes on anything that gets in his way head first.

Biography: Growing up in Lavaridge Town Jackson was an active child; always running, climbing, fighting and generally doing everything he was told that he couldn’t or shouldn’t do, if only to prove people wrong. Despite many warnings to stay away, he probably spent more time playing in the treacherous Jagged Pass than he did in town, meaning he grew up hardy and strong. At age 12 he left home with his first Pokémon in tow and set off to challenge the world.

In the end, he didn’t manage to conquer the world and instead mostly stayed within the Hoenn region. Even so he is an accomplished trainer, having collected all of the badges in the Hoenn region and having competed in the league several times. Jackson now spends most of his time in the Hoenn region’s Battle Frontier. He currently holds the distinction for having completed every challenge the Battle Frontier has to offer in the fastest time, granting him the title of Battle King. Every so often this title is taken away from him when another trainer beats his time, but he is always quick to reclaim his crown with another broken record.

“Big. Yes. I have been walking for a long time. You are the first person I have seen.” As Alastair drew closer to the woman it became clear that she was much taller than he had expected seeing her from afar; although used to being shorter than most of the men he met, even without his slouch, it was rare to meet a woman who towered over him to this extent. If this fact bothered him in slightest it did not show.

The stranger, Ash, fell into step beside Alastair and indicated that they should continue in the same direction that he had been walking; a path that would bring them closer to the accursed light. Reluctantly Alastair took a step forward, then another and another until he was walking with the same stilted gait as before. “Alastair. You may call me Alastair. You do not know how you came to be here Ash?”

@Gentlemanvaultboy like a regular human male, albeit one that doesn't take care of his hygiene particularly well. Absolutely nothing strange going on with that guy, no way.
