If you mean in terms of old characters, Tear, I don't think so. Anyone not being used will be phased out or become an NPC anyone can control. @Jangel, yep, you certainly do, and make sure that you conform to the new guidelines.

Gren, Dakota, and Dan are in.

While I like your concept, Scarifar, I think that Dan could use a bit more detail. For example, if you want me to make a picture of your guy, I'll need more than a headshot image for appearance. I've never seen a single line personality made in my entire stay here, as well, so that may need some more work. > Hey, great minds think alike, don't they? While I don't mind the palette swap, nor the changing of my lightning attribute into that of Sand, it requires me to look for another image. **I hate looking for images.** I'd recommend just using words. I'll make an image for you later. When creating a description for me to use later, more words are better. That goes for everyone. If you're not pleased with my interpretation of your description, that requires me to do it again, which is something I don't really enjoy doing.

Oh my God, I forgot to add a Bio section to the character sheet. Guess we'll have to explore them IC, eh? > Lugu, are we cool to make alterations to our OCs for the purpose of balance and simplicity? Yep! Good to have you back, buddy. Team Blackguard is at 3/4ths strength, but I don't think Galgarion will be joining us any time soon. Perhaps we'll get a new girl. @Six, I'll be waiting. @Paige, Priscilla in the house! You're accepted. @Multi, while I'd be willing to accept Oswald as is, I can't help but feel that you could do with adding a little more meat to the sheet. Do you have any plans of what to do with Auriel? @Asura, if I like how you implement your lasers, they are yours. @Irish...why are you here, exactly? I thought you quit. @Kaben, I like her. Your skill with sheets has obviously improved by leaps and bounds since you created Trico. Shall we relegate Trico to NPC status, or erase her from existence? @Tearstone, very nice! You're in. @Dharc, while I'd be happy to have you, I'm afraid that...well, we've already got a blue-themed, team-playing electric guy: me. **Name:** Abel Fulgurate **Age:** 18 **Gender:** Male **Race:** Human **Weapon:** The Ampere, a unique polearm with a wide, flat blade rather than a spearhead along with a gray steel pole. It has both range and lethality, keeping most melee fighters at a range safe for Abel but devastating to them with a tempered steel point, as well as channeling Abel's natural aura far better than he can do by himself. The Ampere has a single alternate mode that splits the wide blade into four parts and reverses their direction, creating a vaguely mace shape. In this mode, the Ampere can release bolts of lightening that travel impressive distances instantly. **Specialty:** Abel fits best into the role of guardian, fittingly enough. His size, range, and defensive characteristics make him good at intercepting danger coming for his teammates, and he can certainly throw his strength around at close range, armed or not. Using his lightening bolts, he is able to paralyze if not flash-fry a single opponent at long range. **Semblance:** Surge - This ability allows him to project electricity that can manipulate the Ampere at short range without touching it and summon it back to his hand when disarmed, as well as channel electricity to shock anything the weapon touches. By using Surge to rotate his staff quickly at very close range, he can create a sort of shield. When he focuses his power sufficiently through the Ampere in staff mode, he is able to fire a bolt of lightening that takes several minutes to recharge. **Personality:** Abel is proud and gruff, very serious and totally without humor. For someone who appreciates the creativity and technique of both weapons and battle so thoroughly, he ironically is without creativity. Instead, he tend to go about his business by the book, a principled young man of habit and routine with little to no capability to think outside the box. While he is dependable, he is not flexible, and can respond to bullying, injustice, or even plain teasing with sudden anger. While not antisocial, he sticks with only a few friends at any given time, concentrating on strong bonds rather than many bonds. He loathes popular culture and those who overtly subscribe to it. The Grimm mask he carries makes him upset and angry, more at himself than anything else, but as it reminds him of his brother he cannot let it go. Deep down, Abel is a severe defeatist. **Color:** Azure **Emblem:** An azure lightening bolt, naturally. **Appearance:**  Sorry, but I fear that we're too similar. I mean, 'Static' pulls things closer and 'Surge' can pull one thing closer. Might I recommend a palette swap, and a revamp to air and maybe water or sand rather than electricity? You'd be doing me a huge favor.

> Weiss was indeed bitchy, but she at least earned being there and wasn't a lodestone around the neck of everyone around her. We're not following the main story, so no worries!

@Paige, yes, but there are some new additions to the CS that I'd like you to fill in. I will allow you to change your semblance. @Scarifar of course! You are most welcome. @Guess Who, awesome, I'll put you down as completed! @Kafka - simple and good. I will accept him and put you down as completed as well. @Tearstone, I will certainly allow it, though make sure the appropriate edits are made to shift to the new sheet. @Asura, good to see you back.

No worries!

> Every time I saw that I thought about joining. Today is as good a day as any to decide to go through with something!

Wonderful! I'll be delighted to have you on board.

Now is the best time to edit your character as you put them into my new format. I'll be super excited to see what stuff you come up with.
