Should I start the OOC soon?

I suppose I should say hello!

Hello!

Innocence Lost - A Science Fantasy RP [v.03]

Ashton and Flame

Ashton then said to Navi, "The two of us should move on - We need to meet our friends elsewhere. Perhaps we should go to the Mess Hall, or should we meet them at the cells right away?"

Flame muttered, "The sooner we get out of here, the better. And I've already eaten." He looked at the Chief Medical Officer and said, "Again, we'll send someone to you in a moment - Just wait."

And then without waiting for Ashton and Navi to continue, Flame walked towards the Medbay exit, hoping to move towards the cells. He did not want to be here once the shooting started. Potentially killing wounded and injured? That was a bridge too far. No, he wanted to kill the Ascendancy's soldiers when they were actually able to fight, not when they were down. Kicking someone when they were down? That reminded him of his father.

Besides, there was always time for revenge later.

Blue Crow (NPC)

Blue Crow shone with a silvery-white aura, bringing light back to the room while at the same time, Samuel and Iris' spells slowed down, giving the four mechanical warriors time to step backward, shooting at Samuel and Iris as they activated personal energy shields stronger than the normal Ascendancy model. As for Blue Crow himself, the man moved to draw a sword of highly-expensive Perfected Electrum and match Nero blow for blow, somehow able to see through the young man's underworld magic. The sword's blade then vanished, covered in an aura of force, but the fact that Blue Crow swung another flurry of cuts hinted that it was still there, just... Invisible.

"Did they tell you that Kaisoken Dust worked only on children?" the Bounty Hunter said to Nero. "For people who insist on fighting the Ascendancy, you Star Marines have a habit of believing what spews out of their mouths."

After grabbing their attention with his words, Blue Crow then drew a pistol with another hand, a gun which glinted with Perfected Electrum and mother-of-pearl. This gun fired a blast of blazing light, which if it hit, damaged only inanimate gear and inflicted pain without injury to the living. Who was the target? Iris.

Spells used by Blue Crow

Spell Reprieve (High) - Blue Crow can project a silvery-blue aura which allows him to slow the pace of any magic approaching or affecting him, thus allowing him time to act before its full effects manifest. The speed of the spell and its effects is reduced by a factor of one-third, down to 66% of the original speed.

Supernal Vision (High) - Blue Crow can see all Magic, identify what School it is, and the strength of the spell.

Penetrating Nonfatal Shot (High) - A bolt of enchanted energy which can break and penetrate the grand majority of barriers and armor, but under the ‘magical condition’ that it cannot kill. Ever. It can inflict pain, but it cannot inflict permanent injury or death to a living being. Artificial Intelligences count as beings who cannot be killed by this spell as well. However, nonliving barriers and armor are more easily damaged by this spell than by a plasma shot of equal power.

Tales From Landrunia: Ten Thousand Suns

Ascot's response as he ate his food was, "As you said, you're on the edge of Federal Space. Once I rescue my parents, I'll flee with them to beyond the edge, find a nice little neutral world not touched by either Feds or Vyexul Coalition, and then live out the rest of our lives in relative safety among a community of farmers or townsfolk. Or rather, they will - I plan to rejoin the Vyexul counteroffensive once I've rescued my parents and settled them, then defend against the inevitable Federation counterattack. After that, if I'm still alive, I'll join my parents in their hopefully peaceful life."

A wistful smile, "And I don't intend on compromising your people's safety, Ms. Serenity - You can believe me on that." Finishing his meal quickly, the young man said, "As for peaceful, boring jobs, I won't lie, I can use those too. But if you ever need additional security and it won't endanger my and your secrecy, well... I'm good at that too."

In essence, he was offering himself as his host's personal bodyguard and soldier, or even someone who would do any dirty work she might need done. A sign that while Ascot was a kid, he was one who had seen much, done much, and been permanently marked by it.

"But for now," Ascot said as he was finishing his meal, "I'd be happy to help with maintenance and such, even cargo hauling. There's also salvaging derelict wrecks if there are any. But yeah, I'd be happy to work."

Tales From Landrunia: Ten Thousand Suns

Michael Leon Garden Locke - The Ivory Flash

Appearance

Species

Human

Gender

Male

Age

16

Personality

Michael serves the Federation because he has faith in his superior, the one who rescued him from almost certain death after the traumatic experiences he had been through, of disownment and brutal experimentation. His superior, Admiral Esprit, is the person he admires most in the world, because he took him under his wing and taught him that there were still good people in the Federation. Together, they plan to reform the Federation to be a more humane society, one which truly protects the weak, and Michael will serve and die for that dream. But this loyalty deepnds on Admiral Espirit's continued life, and if that ends, Michael will have little to keep him in the Federation.

He also has a crush on his counterpart, Ascot Rider, and privately hopes to be the one to 'bring him to justice'. While he sympathizes with Ascot and his goals, Michael believes that Ascot is short-sighted and that he needs to be made to pay for the Federation lives he has taken, preferably by serving with him. Nevertheless, in battles where both are present, both take great pains to reduce actual fatalities in order not to irrevocably breach their fragile relationship...

Reputation

Michael is the Federation's Ivory Flash, their Mecha Ace, admired and loathed in equal measure by both ally and enemy. An attack dog serving a fool, pledging his allegiance to a cause which has become completely rotten, and yet someone capable of devestating acts of destruction to achieve that futile dream. Though he has killed no civilians yet, killed no innocents, the enemies of the Federation still see him as a monster to be hated and feared.

History

Michael remembered being the youngest of a family of six children, all members of the Federation's richest class. Raised in wealth, luxury, and also responsibility, Michael still had a naturally mild personality, and also a charitable streak which led him to sneak food and extra money to servants who clearly needed it. But that was not what got him disowned, rather, it was when he was being shown around his family's treasury, where several ancient weapons were kept, including a small white and gold mech. On instinct, he touched said mech, and began glowing. It was then that his nature as a Psychic came out, and he was quickly disowned by his parents and other family members before being sold off to a Federation laboratory, where he suffered many... Traumatic things.

Then one day, a Federation Admiral made a surprise visit to the facility and incensed at the actions of the scientists, had them imprisoned and freed Michael from the operating table he had been strapped to, before ordering his subordinates to make sure Michael was treated as a human again, albeit with restraints on his psychic powers. This Admiral, Admiral Espirit Locke, adopted him as a son, albeit a son whom his own superiors forced him to use as a weapon - For if Michael wasn't useful, he would be killed out of hand.

So Admiral Espirit and Michael began playing the long game - Fight against the enemies of the Federation, gain power, and eventually reform the nation from within. Of course, the fact that they had to crush the enemies of the Federation put them on the crosshairs of one Ascot Rider, and so the story begins.

Gear

Psychic Powers: Michael has the ability to project barriers and burning beams of pure white-and-gold force, as well as levitate himself and fly. But his most powerful ability, and his most problematic, is a keen sense of psychic empathy which overlaps with mind-reading which allows him to see an opponent's thoughts and emotions, from redeeming qualities to true monstrosity and both. This empathy is two-way, meaning that he can 'broadcast' his feelings to his opponent in the middle of battle, sometimes without concious intent. And yes, this means that Michael can feel the emotions of enemies who merely want to defend their homes, making himself disgusted with what he does...

The Light's Wrath Mech

Reference

Overall Height: 4.51 Meters
Weight: 7.51 Metric Tonnes
Power Source: A 'Psychic Reactor' which breaks the laws of physics to produce free energy.

Composed of the same psychically-resonant materials as Ashbringer, Light's Wrath is much the same, a mech capable of bonding with a pilot of sufficient potential to awaken its psychic reactor. Able to keep up with Ashbringer, Light's Wrath is also retrofitted with Federation Tech, with none of the 'taint' of the Vyexul.

Light's Wrath has four grappling hooks (launched from the forearms and each side of the waist), energy wings, and a forcefield. It also has..

Hybrid Plasma-Solid Rifle

A railgun-based weapon that fires rounds of super-dense metal coated in plasma at a fraction of lightspeed, and which can also 'switch' to firing balls of concentrated plasma or just 'pure' railgun rounds...

Exclaibur Nova

A blade of meta-materials which is normally blunt, but can be instantly sharpened to a monomolecular edge by running psychic power through it, and can even be 'coated' in burning white-gold energies which are as hot as a sun's surface, yet at the same time, be 'altered' to not burn anyone Michael thinks of as an ally...

Future Upgrades

Webs of Fate

Light's Wrath can release threads of laced graphene from its wrists, the pilot telekinetically weaving them into a secondary shield which saves energy normally used for the forcefield.

Alternatively, it can be used as an offensive weapon for incapacitation.

Aurora Breaker

Light's Wrath's torso has a red gem whose function is to siphon heat and electricity released in a battle, store it, and then unleash it back as a pulse of devastating light which explodes outward, burning enemies engulfed in its burst. The longer the battle has been going on (the more heat released), the more devastating the resulting explosion would be.

Personal Equipment:

- Omni-tool.
- Medkit w/ medical nanomachines and organic healing gels.
- Small Holdout Coilgun Pistol w/ two cartridges of ammo.
- Switchblade.
- Pilot Suit.
- Fine Civilian Clothes.
- Bulletproof vest.
- Credit Stick containing a lot of money.
- Gentleman's Rapier
- Cuff/Bracer which dampens his powers when he wears it, thus lessening the danger he presents to fellow Feds.

@darkred, accepted.

@WanderingDragon, Yes, but there's no formal system.

Kingdom Hearts: Alternate Lights [Reboot]

@Letter Bee Okay. This is a rough draft. I'll decide if I want to keep this backstory for Jaden, or make some tweaks.

@WanderingDragon

Ah, sorry for being too quick, then.
