Bio

Current GM of World of Light. When it comes to writing, there's nothing I love more than imagination, engagement, and commitment. I'm always open to talk, suggestion, criticism, and collaboration. While I try to be as obliging, helpful, and courteous as possible, I have very little sympathy for ghosts, and anyone who'd like to string me along. Straightforwardness is all I ask for.

Looking for more personal details? I'm just some dude from the American south; software development is my job but games, writing, and trying to help others enjoy life are my passions. Been RPing for over a decade, starting waaaay back with humble beginnings on the Spore forum, so I know a thing or two, though I won't pretend to be an expert. If you're down for some fun, let's make something spectacular together.

Nice. Don't worry too much about the Emblem, it's just a frontal image of an Orchid. I could figure out how to make it myself if I ever bothered to look up what an Orchid looks like. Any way to change the eyes into something akin to a knight's visor? Glowing and stuff too.


This is one of the little details I'd want to hear the first time. Hope this version satisfies.
The double posts abound!

I accept your challenge! Actually I hope that Gren's Combat appearance is quite simple, since he's fully armored. He's not very top heavy and he's much more barrel chested (Think a rectangular body instead of a triangular one). He wears a full helmet with a Grimm Design, sort of like a White Fang Mask, but more stylized to look knightly.Not an inch of exposed skin anywhere, so make his armor look heavy. The image I've chosen for him is just what his face looks like (The circlet is something he wears to link to his Helmet). Additionally, if you're willing to go the extra mile, his armor is somewhat robotic looking, which eludes to his past.


Alright, here you are. I tried to get an 'noble savage' vibe going for the head, I didn't even give him a bodily lair as requested so the pic really is only armor, and I tried to make it seem robotic. I didn't add any extra trimmings except for my latest attempt at your elusive symbol. Didn't even try to do his weapon.

@Lugubrious can you give me a sort of green poison symbol?


These work?

If you like one, make sure to edit into your sheet for Irish and Wong.
Big news: for those dedicated to sticking with this RP, I am now accepting requests to remake your character in Heromachine to the best of my ability. If you wanted a portrayal of your character any more accurate/original than the pictures you've found, now's the time. Warning, though: full characters take a bit longer than symbols. I would also prefer a specific description so that I don't have to redo any I've already done (spoiler alert: not gonna redo). Anyone up for it?

As a sort of art show to prove my viability (or not) I give you revamped Abel -- now with ears and eyebrows!

thanks for the support and as for semblance it was just the first thing that came to mind, my character will be a smart mouth and be evasive since it said to have a semblance that matches that personality that's what came to mind. I was thinking of some kind of redirection or aura absorption semblance but I don't know what to place...


Given the personality you envision, I'm thinking your character might be a sort of wrecker, able to dish out lots of damage really quickly. In that case I could maybe suggest a few semblances:

Counter - for a split second, Greyson imbues his weapon with his aura, freezing himself in place. If an enemy strikes it during this time, the aura instantly transfers to it instead, paralyzing it and allowing Greyson to attack freely.
Flow - as Greyson fights, water appears around his legs. This water allows him to slide across the ground, moving quicker than he would otherwise. This water can also be expelled in a blast to propel him into the air.
Stunt Double - using his aura, Greyson creates a clone of himself at his exact location. Since two objects cannot exist in the same place at the same time, they immediately repulse one another. Each is sent flying at high speed, in opposite directions. Greyson can more or less control which direction he is sent, and thusly control where his clone is sent. Upon touching something other than the ground, the aura clone vanishes.
Hey there, new comrade! If I may, I have a few words for you. Firstly, characters in the show tend to have the ability to mitigate most mundane attacks without the use of semblance--for example, both Cardin and Dove managed to block Pyrra's shotgun blasts with a mace and a sword, respectively. I would be supportive if you were to choose another semblance entirely, seeing as yours is good only against fellow students, and even then those with projectile auras. Out of all our characters, I really only see it being effective against Gideon, Abel, Robert, Savan, and Laura. Seems underpowered if you ask me.

Aside from that and capitalization in your posts, you seem fine to me. Welcome to the fold!

EDIT: Please note that I have no real authority here, I'm just giving my opinion as a fellow player.
EDIT EDIT: If you'd like me to make a symbol for your character I'd be happy to oblige.
Seems like Auriel, Emlyn, Robert, and Tai are all headed for the hill/mountain.

I'd be inclined to say that Able, Bridget, Gren, and Kuhaku are all heading for the caves by the train tracks as well. Any disagreements?
You're welcome!

Bridget doesn't have an emblem yet, but that's mostly because I haven't thought of what it should look like.


I can spitball for you if you like and PM you two different versions.
Will these work?




If you like them, make sure to add them to your sheets so that Oldmanwong will be able to put them into his thread.
Hey, anyone else want me to make symbols for their character? Here is some of me work--


Abel and Mary

Gideon and Robert
