Noble Arms is now either four years old, or three years and eleven months. The third thread had lasted for more than one year.

My Roleplay, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, will reach its 4th year in June or July. It's been a long journey.

Despite its massive flaws, my RP, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, is still one of the longest ongoing RPs in RPGuild - It turns 4 years old in July and the current thread itself is more than a year old.

@TheWindel, made post above.
Name: Maria Hamada
Title/Alias: Midas Touch
Age: 23.
Gender: Female.
Height: Average.
Weight: Average
Appearance:


Powers:

Castilian - Tagalog Alchemy: Maria's mother had a heritage of Spaniard and Filipino, not just in genes and culture, but also in magical knowledge, for in the Philippines, the arts of East and West mixed freely, with Castilian methods of transmutation and concoction mixing with the unique possibiliites in Filipino herbalism and knowledge of nature, with a smattering of Chinese knowledge. Thus, Maria can create healing powders, explosive compounds, antidotes to poison, and of course, transmute lead to gold or create an Elixir of Immortality.

Drawbacks: The secret to how Castilian-Tagalog Alchemy even works is that it uses Yokai parts, with the more powerful compounds requiring that the Yokai be willing to give up their body parts. In fact, the Elixir of Immortality requires a Yokai of Chikage Akane's level to give up her heart of her own free will, something that probably won't ever happen.

Weapons:



Nemesis Kalis - A Kalis that glows silver in the Crimson Sky, the Nemesis Kalis was forged from a Dragon's fang, and enchanted with Filipino Baybayin* script that gives it the power to cut wounds that cannot be regenerated by magic.

*en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baybayin

9mm Pistol and ammunition.

Anti-Materiel Sniper Rifle.

Equipment:

Bag of Holding - A minor treasure that allows Maria to contain weapons, ammunition, money, food and water inside a small space, no larger than a small pouch.

Other: N/A.

Sample Post/Introduction:

Five Years Ago

"Maria, you are eighteen now," the middle-aged Japanese man, clad in his hakama, stood as he and Maria gazed out over the garden and koi pond. "It is time you learned about your mother, the source of the other half of your heritage." He would then smile. "For a long time, being only Half-Japanese has brought trouble and danger to your life, and it is only my name that protects you. You may even feel ashamed of it, as our society is biased to those of 'pure blood'. Well, it is time for you to know that your mixed blood is not a source of shame, but rather of pride, pride because in another world, your heritage is one of power, wonder, and fear."

"Are you talking about the Crimson Sky, oto-sama?" Maria said. "But that's a myth!"

"So young and yet so sure," the middle-aged Japanese man, Fubuki Hamada, smiled. "Then why don't you come with me, sit by the pond?" He would then begin walking forwards, and Maria, out of obedience, followed him...only for the sky to change, with the full moon turning pink amidst a blood-red sky.

"I...I don't believe it," Maria was now staring at this new world around her, where in the air, the koi swam in the air. Wait, make that Yokai who looked like koi. "But I have to, don't I, oto-sama?" She was trying to calm down, but her body was still tense, adrenaline flowing through her body. "This cannot be denied."

"Indeed it can't," Fubuki said. "Your mother, my wife, was not just a mail-order bride, but also a Chaser, one who had her own mind and will, even in her marriage to me. She was a proud woman, one who knew the secrets of a unique form of Alchemy, one that turned the parts of Yokai into something useful, yet were bound to rely on the powerful ones being willing to give up their body parts. I loved her, although I will admit that at first, it was because of the power she promised, but now..."

"But now, her loss, in that car accident on Earth, it brings pain to my heart and soul," the middle-aged man finished.

"Why are you telling me this, oto-sama?" Maria said, "I mean, I'm glad you waited till I was eighteen to show me the Crimson Sky, but...I was planning to go to the Philippines, as I don't have much opportunity in Japan."

"Hear me out, Maria," Fubuki coughed a little after that. "Your mother made the sacrifice of marrying me, knowing little about who she was binding herself to, to save the secrets of Castilian-Tagalog Alchemy, and even advance it. Do you realize how precious that knowledge was to her? To me? Knowledge is beautiful, precious, and it must be preserved and passed on."

"I know that I cannot ask you to sacrifice your life unwillingly, but please, let me teach you what your mother knew, let me pass on the knowledge of Castilian-Tagalog Alchemy, so that you can pass it on to others, other Chasers..."
@Letter Bee It seems like most lost interest. : c Maybe you should re-try this RP some time? I think its worth a second chance, it could be it wasn't the right window of time for it to gain traction.


Yeah, that might be the best course.
Interested. Also, how many characters can you have?
((Collab between Rex, Double, and Letter Bee))

Seth

Within his personal bubble of perception, Seth saw a world halted around him, as if it were trapped within a single moment in time. He could spy blades of light beginning to take form as Tocsax made his move, albeit very slowly from the Nobody's perspective. Speaking of moves, he also spotted bone-like constructs slowly taking shape around the guy with the hockey mask to intercept the blades. With a shrug, Seth began to zip toward the super weapon, pausing briefly as he passed by a shovel that had been thrown through the air, tilting his head and then moving on.

He must have circled the weapon dozens of times, from dozens of angles all within the span of a moment or two from his perception of time, "Hmm..." the only thing he could discover about the weapon was that the hard light shell was just that: a shell. It seemed there was some kind of core within it, with crystaline veins running outward producing very tiny robots. Was it perhaps hollow on the inside of the shell? An idea began to take shape, but for Seth to pull it off he needed to make sure he wasted none of his time.

The Nobody's eyes darted around quickly, locating each of his Snipers currently in action. They were taking aim but hadn't fired yet, which was just as well. In record time, Seth zipped about in the structure, manually grabbing his Snipers one at a time and gathering them in spot before putting a Hastega on all them to speed them up slightly. He then willed them to converge together, a bit slowly from his perspective but at double time from everyone else's perception of time. Once the Chaos Buster was cosntructed the Nobody threw open a Corridor of Darkness directly in front of it, one leading to what he hoped would be the inside of the hard light shell so that the shot would hit the core directly at point blank range.

The Chaos Buster started charging up, again slowly to Seth but at double speed to everyone else thanks to the Hastega spell it was benefitting from. The Nobody's little space/time gambit wore off just as the big cannon finished up charging, "Trick or treat!" Seth said with a grin, pointing a finger forward like a gun and pulling an imaginary trigger in order to fire the Chaos Buster into the Corridor of Darkness that hopefully pointed the shot directly at the super weapon's core.

This being Tocsax's first time witnessing the Chaos Buster, he might note the attack's remarkable similarity to his own Ultima Cannon technique.

Amazing! Tocsax was at a loss for words as to how Seth's guile and creativity had allowed him to punch above his own weight, as the Planet Killer's holographic surface blinked in and out, before fading, and the crystaline core, bleeding luminous nanobots, fell towards the core of the Incubators' giant labyrinth of a city with a loud crash.

But, Tocsax can only spare a few seconds at that, before confronting the trio, now duo, and saying:

"Tell us, why should we trust you?"

Data-Ascot just stod there silently, readying another spell.

The man with the hockey mask smiled before he explained, “I’m pretty sure you’ve seen it: His Shadow Nexus. I’m sure you’ve also seen the destruction it brings. Why keep that destruction so close when it could erupt and destroy all of you?” the man with the hockey mask seemed to git a kick out of knowing how destructive the Shadow Nexus was.

“I’m also sure you know about his occupation. Do you even realize how many people he’s killed for money? So why would someone like you who’s fighting for the light let such a person on their side? How long before he turns his blade on you or worse: he turns his Shadow Nexus on you.” the said before he continued, “I’m sure you can sense the blood lust in it. The pure anger and rage it holds. Why not let us take it from you?”

“Get to the point!” Viper hissed. She was growing Impatient with the current situation as she added, “If he’s not willing to give us the weapon. Then let’s just take it. We get Drake and put him in the chamber, he’ll simply go back to his old self. “

“In due time Viper, but we must be rational about this. These people might not want to part with the weapon. The Shadow Nexus is powerful. If we can extract it, we can control it,” the man with the hockey mask stated before he turned back to Tocsax and added, “you might not trust us, but how much do you trust Drake? A person who lies can’t be that trust worthy or has he got you believing in the whole not killing children spiel?”

“Oh my god, can we just get the weapon and go!” Viper yelled.

“Viper! In due time, we need to negotiate. Hence why I sent Maze to get the girl. We trade her for Drake,” the man stated before he added, “The others are keeping the rest busy. So we just need to wait.”

Maria di Italia had teleported Drake to the platform everyone else was in while this exchange was going on, and Tocsax would look at the bounty hunter and say:

"Drake, can you tell these thugs what you think of them and their exaggerations as regards you? Shadow Nexus or no Shadow Nexus, we don't hand over people to be harmed or hurt."
Okay, who is still playing?
