Deep Ground Online (Hiatus)

Eris Valkeyr Reinhardt

It took sometime for Eris to recompose herself, but eventually, she managed to, and the first place she went after leaving her dorm was the nearest shopping arcade (the same one where she met Cassandra and the others yesterday night), dropping by the paid lockers to leave her weapon and ammunition behind. It was crazy to walk through the city with these things, to begin with. Once she did that, Eris went to an store and purchased a fresh change of clothes (naturally one of her favorite brand) along and an umbrella, lastly stopping by the drugstore where she got the nurse to do her suture all up again and bandage her hand, leaving a decent tip, since it was the second time she visited the store in order to do that.

With all done, Eris walked the rest of the way to Yoshino's apartment, where she knocked at the door a couple times, before calling, "Yoshino Tsugumi, I need to talk to you. I have questions pertaining a certain incident of this morning." With that said, Eris stood by Yoshino's door waiting for the Student Council President to make herself known. In the meanwhile, she thought about the whole event, trying to sort out things, and consider why and how it had happened, before drawing to the conclusion that it was most likely the work of a hacker, perhaps even the trash known as Corpse Collector's doing.

To say the truth, it was the most likely scenario. There was no way that Corpse Collector was uninformed about the bounty on her head and since it was Yoshino who issued that in the name of Moon Rider, it was quite likely the case. Still, the was that lingering suspicion inside of Eris that, even if the Moon Rider she met was a fake one, Yoshino happened to be the true Black King.

"But I have no time for that now, I will leave the thoughts about Yoshino's secret for later. Since it would be madness to threaten or harm someone innocent such as Cassandra, probably the one in most danger now is Yoshino herself. If my wits are right, I should be the one to kill her, thereby freeing whoever is behind this from two potential foes, once I got to sent for imprisonment. Thus, the reason I have to discuss with her and, if she really is Moon Rider, I might even get some information on the Storyteller, after all, my information has already been leaked. What would be the point of secrecy?" Eris thought as her expression gradually shifted from neutral, to bored, to irritated at Yoshino's laziness. It was almost ten o'clock, there was no way she could be sleeping now.

"Of all days in the world, this is just the one where I learn that Yoshino Tsugumi is not a morning person person. God..." Eris sighed exasperated, before she rapped door a third time, and announced her identity. "Yoshino Tsugumi, open this door, it is me, Eris Reinhardt, I really need to talk to you."

The Dollmaster, Emilia Warov

And, finally the last member of Team MILE reported her presence at the ruins, or better, at long last her teammates came to the the assigned rendezvous point. One would think that second year students were more orderly, but it seemed that Team MILE always had something that kept it from doing things the way they were supposed to. What could that be?

Anyway, "At last you three have arrived. I was beginning to ponder if I should send some dolls to search you." Emilia said with a dark smile gracing her fine lips as she gleefully observed two assault drones fighting one another under her command, taking joy in seeing the steel dolls falling apart. "So, what was it now?" She asked, cradling the steely skull of one of them in her arms while she contemplated the fact that the ultimate fate of all things is to break.

"Anyway, what's it now, Lucy? If you really want to help the first years, I guess I can help you, but", Emilia gave a step closer to Lucille and touched the green-haired girl's soft face with her right hand, lifting Lucille's chin, so that they could look at each other's eyes, "for someone such as you to ask for that. I wonder if this is a sign that you're finally growing up?"

"Either way", Emilia turned to the Oi siblings next, "You know that Team DIE is behind this uproar, right? What do you two plan to do?"

Oh, so there IS a mana pool then! *looks pointedly at Vocab and Spriggs*

So, while there are overlaps between people having the same power, what makes it unique, then, is their differing methods of using said powers? Makes sense then. I suppose Vocab's Codex Imperium is more of a Youkai trait than an actual Manifestation then? Seeing how it's something Erys learned, instead of figured out by herself?

And geez, so Gaz's copycat ability also gives him limited omniscience, eh? XD

@Ashifili

I'll take another look at Erys, before giving my verdict about the ability.

Nevertheless, I specially said more than once that Gaz can't master a skill he has just acquired, unless he had the chance to use it before. That's the whole why he can't copy magic, since he would still need to train to master it.

@Lmpkio
what's the point of making characters if you don't fuck up their lives beyond all reasonable measure

@Mysaren

Someone seems to have gone to the same school of character development as you, @TheWindel...

Chasers - Boundary of the Crimson Sky [remake]

KoL, are you gonna post soon? I'm waiting for you.

@IncredibleBee

I'll, I'll post tomorrow. I'm really sorry, but making an effort here. If I could I would post much more frequently, but RL simply won't allow me.

Height constitutes moe-ness now? How does that correlate to-

Hider

_Kiara?

@TheWindel

It's more complicate than that. Solanne, for example, is moe and happens to be tall and busty, so moe-ness is a hard to define factor.

Let's just say Lucille and Apy are even, ok?

Akatsuki Academy

Okay, so let me just confirm all that I have learned so far.
- Zetsu is infinite.
- Zetsu is what powers Manifestations.
- Manifestations have a hard limit, but can be used infinitely.
- Certain Manifestations require knowledge, such as magic.
- Manifestations are unique (?)

@Ashifili

Lemme answer this, in order:

- No, one can run out of their reserves (the size varies by person), just think of it as what it actually is, a mana pool. Having "infinite" Zetsu isn't impossible, but is way too rare.

- Yes, and some Youkai abilities as well, but this varies from individual to individual.

- Most have a limit, but it can be raised with training, but as long as you have a reserve of power to draw from, you can use them with little side effects, unless their description states otherwise.

- Well, you require knowledge on how to use any power that you may have, after all most people aren't born knowing how to fight. Magic is just specially complicated, nothing more.

- In a way yes, but it's not like there can't be two people who use fire powers in the world, it's just that each one would have their way of doing it.

Any more questions? Also, to ease things to everyone I'll pin this to the first page as well.

Maybe. Nerd Lucille is pretty clumsy....

@TheWindel

Nerd Apy is a klutz as well, but what makes her win isn't that, but the fact that she's smaller that Lucille thereby being cuter.

Unless you disprove me, then we would have a race to see who's smaller.

@KoL

Oh? Apophis is stronger than Lucille? This will be interesting...heh.

@TheWindel

She maybe, she may not, we probably will never know the answer for this question. At the very least, she wins the moe competition.
