Gah, not a single reaction thus far to the arena fight. Please feel free to post the last part ASAP, Caits.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

The sudden arrival of Robert in Ozpin's office was an unexpected surprise, but from the boy's tone, exhaustion, and troubling words, the headmaster got the distinct impression that something was very wrong. Moving with a surprising haste given his age, Ozpin marched from his office with Robert in disorderly pursuit, and behind him the two new students. Quickly and efficiently he descended the flight of stairs, mulling over the things that the teamless leader had told him. Embodiment, did he say? Where had he heard that before...? On the way, the headmaster told the three boys to leave him and return to their business. “This is school business, no concern of yours. Return to class.” His tone made it clear that he would be brooking no nonsense.

-=-=-

With a loud squeal, the infirmary door was thrown open, and in marched Beacon's principle. Though normally a man to wear a look of casual curiosity, as if some great knowledge lay behind his eyes for students to discover, Ozpin now bore a visage of utter seriousness. He approached the bedside, saying in a quiet but clear manner, “Students, please leave now. Algernon, go with them and continue your class as usual; there's still at least twenty minutes before the bell. Make sure to properly penalize any absentees. Seniors, you have duties to attend to as well.”

After the math instructor had left with Cobalt, Oswald, and Sapphire, Ozpin stood by the unconscious boy's shoulder. He bent to examine the stitching around the mouth and turned up a surprising conclusion. Judging by appearance alone, it was somewhat elastic, and would stretch to permit the boy to drink and make some facial expressions. As Ozpin watched, the kid turned his odd eyes to look at him. When the air around the headmaster began to move, vibrating at complex frequencies to produce sounds, he listened intently. ”Thank...you. Be...ready. The Painter...follows.” Through narrowed eyes, Ozpin could see that the air within the boy's mouth vibrated too. Perhaps, he reasoned coolly, whoever did this to him was trying to keep whatever singularity of sound that lay within him from bursting out when his semblance was active. This semblance, in fact, was like nothing Ozpin had ever seen. It seemed to be constantly on, and totally untied to the boy's obviously depleted aura. It was more like...hmm. Semblances derived their name from old folk tales about beings with incredible power over forces in nature, practically akin to magic. Human characters in those stories, seeing these grand magics, labored to emulate them, so producing for each a 'semblance' of the power of the gods. This ability, however, combined with the distinctive tattoo, seemed to lend itself to the idea that it was an 'embodiment' of such power—a projection far beyond that of an ordinary person. To Ozpin's immediate knowledge, this was the first time he'd ever seen such a thing. It was a matter of no small concern, especially if this hyper-powerful kid seemed to be afraid of someone -or something- called 'The Painter'. Now was not, however, a good time to delve into the hardships inflicted upon him.

“What is your name?”

The air contorted itself to sound out a melodic reply. ”Jay...”

Ozpin spoke up before the boy could continue. “Don't worry any more, Jay. We will take care of you.”

Abel Fulgurate

“Someone call my name?”

Without proper warning, Abel was there. He looked at Shiro, then Gren, then back again, and held up his phone needlessly “Got your message. I followed the people with the kid for a way, but I didn't want to just hang around bein' useless so I came back. I don't know what's up with him. I heard someone saying that class isn't canceled though, so we oughta head back.” Shrugging, Abel waiting for one of his comrades to reply, not aware that he'd stepped into a potentially important conversation.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Turner Miyahata

Name: Turner Miyahata

Team:

Species: Human

Age: 17

Sex: Male

Handedness: Right

Aura/Effects: Turner's Aura is a deep turquoise, and lightning crackles and surges around him. It's only active in combat, and not that visible either, although small cracks and zig-zags of blue energy can be seen sparking around him.

Symbol:

Physical traits: All traits pretty much seen in the image. Hes not hiding anything under his clothes.

Nickname(s): None

2) Appearance:

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 165 lbs



(serves as both casual and combat outfit)

3) Characteristics:

Personality: Turner is actually calm and chill. A happy guy on the inside but he usually shows a straight face, with a smirk or a small chuckle here and there to indicate his emotions. He likes listening more than talking and always open to help others. He doesnt let on much about himself though, making him a little mysterious in that regards and sometimes isolates himself from conversations. But when it comes to fighting, he becomes determined and even more colder than what he is outside of combat, gaining an incredible focus. However, he has a selfless nature meaning he would and does take blows for other people, despite the risk. You can count on him for anything, from fighting with you, or keeping your secrets.

Background: Turner has actually had a pretty much normal life, no loss, no bloodshed. It was kind of a surprise to his parents when he finally decided what he wanted to with his life, and that was to become a hunter. He studied everything, techniques, famous hunters, recorded knowledge of Grimm, anything that could prepare him. When Turner found out he was going to Beacon, he was ecstatic, and promptly gathered his belongings, said goodbye to his family and left without a single thought. Nothing would stop him from being a hunter, he was going to make sure of that.

4) Combat info:

Position/Class: Assassin/duelist.

Landing strategy: He will turn his weapon into their dual wield sword mode and try to latch onto something.

Weapon:

Kaminari Inazuma

Kaminari Inazuma is a multi-form blade weapon consisting of four melee transformations. The blades fold in and out from each other and the handles are connected to each other by a thin metal wire, resembling string almost. When Kaminari Inazuma can then convert into machine pistols that fire at a high rate (the picture on the far right). The metal string can extend and shorten too, making it great for creating momentum-based attacks too.

Semblance: "Piercing Light"- Turner channels the electricity he gets from his aura and converts this stored energy into one massive beam attack. However, he will be so tired after using it, he would simply black out and faint. He has only ever attempted this once and he knows it is to be used in a last ditch effort.

Fighting style: Turner focuses on counter-attacks, and uses acrobatic skills to out manoeuvre the enemy, before closing in again to strike. He can attack in quick flurries, however his actual blocking is lacking a bit. He trains forms with all of his weapons and can be seen using the metal rope to it's full advantage. His gun-play usually consists of gunning his enemies down rather than carefully placing shots but it works more for his kind of style.

5) Trivia:

Relationships: None to note.

Notes: His weapon name translates from Japanese to "Thunder Lightning".

This is a character I used from another RWBY rp. Hope he's okay to use here

@GingerBoi123

The basic concept is good, but his semblance must be changed (we already have two electric semblances) and I would like the information adapted into my format. Also, we've got a lot of blue in this RP.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

<Snipped quote by @GingerBoi123>

Well from my understanding, Lugu was pointing out there are 2 last spots left so you'd be one of the last to join.

Correct me if I'm wrong. @Lugubrious

@Onarax

Yeah, two spots. Sorry if that was unclear.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

I'm just about to be against including any more people. The sole remaining places left are the final member of the undefined senior team with Onarax, Crimmy, and Sho on it, and the fifth member of Midnight Squad.

After that we will be closed to new signups.

By the way, to all the new people: take a good look at the Conference Document and add yourselves to the player roster and other things.

Phoenix Wing (A Fairy Tail RP-Always Open, Open)

A vampire?

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

@LugubriousNytem and I were wondering if we should write about anything in the meantime, or wait until the post for Ozpin?

@Jedly

Do what you'd like.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

I put in inputs already though. x_x

I'll make an inputless version then!

@NarayanK

....er. if anyone has already done inputs before I stated I didn't want them, they can be included and I won't fault you. Think of it as a present for me flip-flopping.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

I'll change it to minimum of three specials maximum of seven.

Please do not put in normals or inputs. A general description of the style of normals would be enough. You can mention if your character has an overhead, a few armored normals, aerials that are good for crossups, what have you, but don't go into needless depth about the simplest things, please. Ranging excessively off topic (read: provided criteria) can count against you. Combo lists also won't be necessary.

I understand the depth of Tekken's move list, but I honestly can't see how 'this sort of punch, this sort of kick' stays interesting compared to games with interesting and hype moves. Tekken is a game well grounded in reality (for the most part..), and kudos for that, but in HOB we've got access to so much more interesting stuff.

Fun fact: the last fighting contest had Fatalities.

Would anyone find it interesting/fun if I made it an option to include EX versions of special moves? EX involves the use of a meter (often the same used to do super moves or in this case, the Instant Kill) to power up a special move and grant it extra results, damage, and cintematic effect.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

By the way, seniors and even antagonists can benefit from credits earned in contests as well, since they are an OOC resource.

Oh, neato. Does that mean I got accepted? I'm heavily assuming yes, but I just want to make sure before posting Valin into the character tab.

@Invisible Man

Yep.
