if this is still open ill be interested.

@Suku

Absolutely!

I'll prolly need to work on my combat a lot

Hider

Name: Zio Heart
Gender: Male
Age: 26
Race: human

Appearance: (extra details your image does not show? Or alternate means. Optional)

Faction: demon hunters association

Personality: ‘If only we could talk about this I'm sure things could work out for the better… no? Ok i tried to do this the easy way’
Zio is one who would always prefer the peaceful solution of understanding. His desire for the less violent approach gets him in tight situations quite often but even though he would prefer peaceful resolves Zio realises that if it doesn't work he's gotta fight.

Of course there might be more to Zio than his peaceful way. Time can't completely heal the anger deep inside Zio

Bio:
My past? Really I have to? Fine ok lets see it all began on one fateful night many years-
Ok thats BS i don't remember any fateful nights but i do remember growing up in an orphanage… well if you want to call it that I'd rather call it the great darkness and evil of humanity but hey I'm not good with names, so it was called an institution and was outwardly meant for children who had lost their families to the more well you know supernatural side of things.

Of course that was on the outside, the inside was not as pleasant. Humanity is all about evolving to survive and we were the sacrifices that came with evolution.
Tested on daily, experimenting with both science and magic to find a way to become stronger… of course to all the kids it was just hell, being injected, sliced, spliced and god knows what else daily.

As the kids grew older they lost all feeling and emotions thanks to the drugs and abuse, and they became a byproduct of the main experiments.
Perfect killers.
No feelings made them perfect as field subjects for new, experimental or enhanced weapons and it didn't take long for a certain pink haired? Boy to show promise.
You know because he didn't die and all, what a cool kid huh… anyway thanks to that if someone returned alive they would be pretty beaten up and need patching up often which lead to guess what more experiments with regeneration and other things like oh elemental manipulation.
Now with all this going on you could be wondering things like.
Hey Zio how do you know all this stuff and still have a big heart?

The answers simple I…. Sorry i mean the pink haired boy learnt that not everyone is all bad as a female scientist? Helped them.
Not being able to bare her sins anymore the scientist? Tried to help as many of us escape as possible, which could have gone better honestly… maybe we shouldn't have taken some of their best weapons but hey how else were we supposed to survive.
So yea we tried to break free of the chains binding us.

If only the kids were stronger or more prepared for what they faced, the others. Seen as traitors we were forced to go ahead against the others as we tried to escape and so many failed… the pink haired boy almost did too but the scientist jumped in the way of a fatal blow. Maybe it was out of guilt or some form of self morality but she did save his life, she even said something stupid about how she liked the colour pink in her last breaths as she played with the boys hair.

After that day the boy got away and long after he wore a heart shaped key for every friend he lost due to violence.
I then set off traveling, meeting new people, learning of all the great things that are and could be and in the end i landed in the role of a hunter… not that i like it but it turns out I'm really good at it and thats got to be because of my big heart and my way of convincing the enemy to stop.

Its not like i can stop now anyway i kinda got debt now.
Remember kids don't trust white haired strangers, especially ones possibly linked to the destruction of a certain institution.
He's lucky im such a good guy and said i would pay for his meal for info… even after all the sarcasm.
But what does he do? Not tell me anything and running off forcing me to not only pay his bill but his entire tab.
HOW DOES ONE GET AWAY WITH THAT MUCH DEBT!?

Thats that though and I've got my own things to do still, i just want people to realise whats wrong is wrong and im sure if someone could sacrifice their life to protect someone she herself once toyed with ik sure others can have a change of heart too.

The heart is a wonderful thing. I'm sure one day everyone will understand.

@itano123

Overall, I can't see anything exceptionally wrong with your character. The only big complaint I have is that it's a bit of a mess. Can we rely on you to double-check your spelling, grammar, punctuation, and capitalization in the future?

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay Mk.II

@Lugubrious <Snipped quote by Allure>

I don't get how he can be part of any god really, seeing as those flowers were created solely, I presume, by Illunabar/Meimu/Slough. Did he absorb the residual essence left behind by each of the gods that visited the Deepwood?

@Vec

Pretty much.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

@LugubriousI may be wrong but I think my team might need another post.

@Suku

Soon...soon...

On another note, if anyone likes Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, Darksiders, or ideally a combination of all three, or Sho Minazuki, there's an rp with all that I helped create. Take a look if you like, maybe get in on it.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

PC

Hyobanshi Souta

[Character]

Name: Hyobanshi Souta
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Race: Human

Appearance: Don’t feel bad for looking at Souta and not expecting much from him—it’s a judgment many have made, and not all of them in error. 6’0” flat and with a stocky built, he has on his rather ovular head short, spiky hair with tips that have started graying way prematurely. A practically-indelible black stubble lines his jaw, though it projects into a short, pointy, downward tuft on his chin. His eyes are a deep green, a color he has embraced in his choice of clothing. Souta wears a pine-green, somewhat high-quality hoodie with voluminous lower sleeves. Beneath the hoodie is a white muscle-shirt whose tightness reveals Souta’s unexpected fitness. He wears baggy black pants with attached suspenders, though the suspenders hang down next to his knees. Dark green shoes complete the ensemble.

Faction: Regalia Arms (heir)

Personality: Best defined by his quietly independent nature, Souta is someone who looks after himself and his passions with a hidden intensity. He’s social but not talkative, unless his temper flares, as it does fairly frequently. When his anger’s aroused, he can be unpleasant and even thuggish. While generally lazy, which certainly hasn’t impressed his father, he’s able to call forth a manic drive at times to get things done. No great shakes when it comes to sudden genius, he is nevertheless capable of exhibiting a noteworthy intelligence, as shown by his double-major in business –at his father’s insistence- and design. Cool things in games and movies are what really gets Souta hyped, and he takes pride in his knowledge of vehicles, weaponry, armor, and combat—even if he himself is not the pinnacle of skill in any of those areas.

Bio: As much as his sister Otsune embodies the perfect child and prodigy that his father so desired, Souta did not. He despised things like hierarchy, calculations, investments, transactions, and ultimately order from his early teenage years. His father Daisuke, soon discovering that he would not coax a legacy out of his surly son, extended what compassion he in his disappointment could and allowed Souta do go his own way with one exception: even if he hated it, Souta would have to major in business in college. The knowledge, Daisuke said, would do him good, especially if he ever decided to put a hold on less than academic passions and pursue a real job. Deciding this would be an acceptable if loathsome sacrifice for comfortable allowance, Souta indulged in gaming and design, developing an appreciation for and fascination with style, be it in clothing or in weapons.

Ultimately, this passion led him full circle and back again to his father’s company, Regalia Arms. As a young adult he rediscovered his family’s business, not as a leader, but as a low-level concepter and tester. He despised the limelight and special favors, choosing instead to play the role of an independent worker. After participating in the creation of hundreds of special weapons and garbs to suit the supernatural needs of customers around the world, Souta was inspired by both his work and the courage of his sister, not just in overcoming her sickness, but in becoming a legendary fighter for humanity, to begin his own fight. While always down for a scrap when the mood suited him, Souta could not have anticipated that his own campaign for the sake of humanity, starting with the creation of four unique Devil Arms to call his own and the fabrication of an empowered outfit, would lead him to such a bizarre and dangerous world.

[Combat]

Powers and Abilities:

Full Description

Without any angelic or demonic heritage or connections, or cybernetic augmentations like his sister, (name) gets his supernatural abilities from the elaborate designs stitched into his clothes. When he wills it, the swirling waves and crashing surf normally barely-perceptible on his hoodie and pants light up a fluid teal, and flowing water enhances his attacks and movements. The water is not real, and vanishes after splashing or separation

Rising Tide - all-around improvement facilitated by flowing water

Style:

Full Description

There’s only one style that really describes the many weapons (name) carries and how he uses them: Walking Armory. Even if he’s not especially proficient with them, the amount of weapons he has as well as the speed with which he can summon them mean that he can always adapt to a situation and keep enemies on their toes.

Walking Armory [Lvl 1]: Escre, Trawler, Silverbist, Maelstrom

Equipment:

FullDescription

As heir to Regalia Arms, (name) comes equipped with a whole host of different weapons, all magically summoned from stitched representations in his hoodie. They include:
(Escre) – the most valuable of (name)’s weapons. It is a warhammer crafted from a soul belonging to a lich slain by his sister. Unlike most Devil Arms hammers, it is an appropriately-sized weapon wieldable with one hand but just as devastating against armor. When using Escre, (name) is able to summon spectral skeletons out of himself made of flowing teal water. They can only exist for a moment, about enough time to deliver or block a single attack, before they disperse, but by giving Escre to one of them, he can prolong its existence and fight alongside it.
(Trawler) – a pair of large fishhooks, not terribly unlike sickles, connected to the user’s palms via magically-extendible chains. The lightweight hooks can be used to slash, stab, or capture, either at melee range or when thrown. They react to flowing water the best out of (name)’s weapons, and are extremely fast.
(Silverbeast) – a pair of clawed gauntlets, with blades up to a foot long attached to the knuckles. The usage of these gauntlets confers a bestial sort of agility and ferocity on moves performed with them, allowing the wielder to cover lots of space in an instant or perform great leaping slashes.
(Maelstrom) – (name)’s favorite firearm. It is a single-shot shotgun heavily stylized to resemble ancient Japanese cannons. Its projectile of fused blue fire explodes like a normal shotgun shell if the trigger is pulled and released, but holding the trigger fires the projectile and delays the explosion until the trigger is released.

Escre [Lvl 1] - warhammer that can be used to summon split-second skeletons
Trawler [Lvl 1] - extendable fishhooks on chains useful for quick, long-range attacks
Silverbeast [Lvl 1] - steel claw gauntlets with a life of their own. Enhances movement
Maelstrom [Lvl 1] - stylized single-shot shotgun that shoots fused blue fire

Techniques:
Escre
Jolly Roger – the conference of Escre to one of the skeletons summoned by it gives the skeleton greater duration, resilience, power, and ability to operate on its own. Calling ‘Roger!’ summons a skeleton to take the hammer from his back or his hand, automatically empowering it.
Squall - a powerful and near-instance lunging thrust with the spike on the warhammer’s tip. It stirs the weapon, which releases a moaning sound
Boarding Party - Souta reels back before hurling Escre full-force at single opponent. Two skeletons appear right next to him, pick him, up, and toss him in the same direction, and Souta lands with a ground pound before picking Escre back up.

Trawler
Anchor - by throwing both hooks at a distant enemy, Souta grabs it and drags it toward him, lining them up for a free followup attack.
Tackle - lunging forward, Souta hooks the enemy with both hooks and kicks them away. The chains tighten and cause the foe to halt and fall to the ground at a range ideal for Trawler.
Line and Sinker - Trawler wraps around an enemy completely, binding it, and Souta whips the bound foe around, using it as a weapon to bludgeon others.

Silverbeast
Squall – a powerful and near-instant double slash attack that carries the user forward. It stirs the weapon, which releases a snarling sound
Vortex - slashing furiously, Souta rises into the air, carring the foe and any nearby with him
Riptide - a double overhead slash that sends Souta and his enemies to the ground.

Maelstrom
Deluge – firing Maelstrom into the air and releasing it creates a shower of fused blue fire that rains down on any enemies below.
Splash - jumping, Maelstrom is fired straight down, creation an explosion of blue fire that launches him up and enemies away, making space for him to do some damage.

OTHER

Hyobanshi Otsune

[Character]

Name: Hyobanshi Otsune
Gender: Female
Age: 26
Race: Cyborg

Appearance: Even to those familiar with unusual-looking people, Otsune is intriguing. She is rather short, standing at only 5’1” with her everyday augmentations in, and is naturally both slender of body and pale of complexion. Her pitch-black silky hair falls in waves to the small of her back, and aside from a rather pointy nose her features are smooth. Rather than arms and lower legs, she sports cybernetic replacements that come in two varieties. In everyday circumstances, she can be seen sporting her white ‘Skeleton’ augmentations, which are about the same size as normal limbs but feature hollowed-out centers. They go well with the flawless white dresses and blouses she commonly wears. In action scenarios, however, Otsune is equipped with her ‘Revenant’ augmentations, which are black, larger, thicker, stronger, and made for war. Whenever she’s in public, Otsune also wears a headband with a contoured electronic patch on the front, which displays an orange lotus flower light-up design.

Faction: Gilgamesh Incorporated (#2 to CEO)

Personality: Oddly enough for her nature as a cyborg, which allows her to be terrifying in combat, Otsune practically embodies the ideal secretary in personality. She is cordial and highly courteous, talkative without being annoying, and extremely clever. However, she is also very serious about her job and the cause it stands for, and despite all her niceties will not hesitate to engage in combat at a moment’s notice if she, her company, or anyone she cares about comes under threat. Ostune keeps a cool head in stressful situations, often reacting to the bizarre occurrences in a threefold world with dull surprise. However, her calm and controlled persona can be broken by extreme circumstances, and when broken Otsune breaks hard. She is not tolerant of fools, but doesn’t typically hesitate to extend her criticism to others at times, either. She does, however, love cute animals.

Bio: For over 25 years, the Japanese company Regalia Arms operated in secret. Though a great many across the world believed in them, not many humans were aware of the existence of heaven and hell, but those who did –unless they lived under rocks- could all attest to the quality and necessity of the devil arms produced by Regalia. Only recently, under the direction of (CEO), did it become as well-known to ordinary people as to those lucid to the three realities. Having manufactured and sold weapons crafted from the souls of slain demons, as well as weapons empowered by the dying blessing of angels, for so long, Regalia began producing water-down versions of their tech for use the world over, naturally implementing a magical ammunition only purchasable at Regalia. Business boomed, but not all was well for its CEO, Hyobanshi Daisuke.

His eldest child, a daughter and the apple of his eye, had been growing steadily sicker as his business had been growing healthier. More and more, Daisuke found himself torn away from his work to rush to the hospital or pay a visit to a store, all in the hopes of making his child feel better. From the beginning she’d always been a serious, brilliant, and quiet girl, and she’d always endeavored and succeeded to make her no-nonsense father proud, but after being diagnosed with cancer in her 19th year she’d gradually grown as serious and quiet as a corpse. With bitter tears Daisuke had vowed to use his company to find a way to save her; neither heaven nor hell could have any claim to her until Otsune decided that her time had come. Finally, on his daughter’s twenty-first birthday, salvation came in the form of Regalia Arms’ partner, Gilgamesh Incorporated.

A treatment of medicine reverse-engineered from the angels concentrated the malignant cells into Otsune’s arms and legs, and from there Daisuke ordered that his daughter be subjected to a standard cybernetic augmentation procedure. Otsune’s arms and legs were amputated and replaced with the finest Gilgamesh tech its CEO could aquire. When she awoke, Otsune found that she could walk again, and wept in joy. In fact, she could do so much more. Determined to repay Gilgamesh for saving her, Otsune joined the company and quickly rose to the rank of #2 as the epitome of human compassion, and cybernetic achievement, though her deathly look never quite abandoned her. With this choice, Otsune left behind her kid brother, Souta, who followed a path of his own.

[Combat]

Powers and Abilities:

Full Description

Even with her everyday Skeleton augmentations Otsune is stronger, faster, and more agile than the average Asian woman, but her Revenant augmentations bring her to another level entirely. Incorporating a unique blend of angelic and demonic tech into a grim, black aesthetic, the Revenant suit makes Otsune a terror on the battlefield. With it, she exceeds half-demons in strength, lateral running speed, and jump height. Its long arms and fingers contain servos that can deliver crushing force, but enable enough agility to perform Karate throws and strikes with learned precision. Over a dozen miniature boosters reside in strategic positions throughout the augmentations, which can reposition themselves freely in their sockets to fire in whatever direction needed to propel Otsune where she wants to go, be it a sliding kick, a rising uppercut, or a swift backdash. Finally, the lower legs have containers of ‘phantom powder’ which when released distorts light, making Otsune difficult to see.

Revenant Augmentation - massively increased strength, speed, durability
Burabura Boost - rocket-propelled bursts of movement in any direction
Phantom Powder - clouds of released particles distort light to make Otsune near-invisible

Style:

Full Description

Otsune’s style takes the name of Japanese spirits: Yokai. It is a primarily hand-to-hand style that combines traditional Japanese karate with Revenant Boosts and Phantom Powder to create an all-out offense that nevertheless manages to be tricky, unpredictable, and versatile. Her preferred strategy is to either ambush her enemies invisibly or soften them up with missiles before charging in for the kill. However, during sustained combat against multiple foes, she employs one other style: Futakuchi-onna. In this style, she faces away from her opponents, looking back over her shoulder. Her Free Blade System does most of the direct attacking, while her stronger moves come from spinning to strike with her augmentations.

Yokai [Lvl 1]: brutal all-out offense that employs stealth, strength, and speed
+[Lvl 2]: Otsune gains unpredictable mix-up options, with faster cloaking time, greater speed while cloaked, and grappling ability
Futakuchi-onna [Lvl 1]: backward-facing style used for control and multiple hits
+[Lvl 2]: Otsune’s arms and legs extend for greater range; the Free Blade System is improved

Equipment:

Full Description

The Revenant suit comes with a few weapons built-in. Mounted under the upper-arm on each arm is a mini-missile launcher, which launch three speedy but small-radius missiles in quick succession when fired. Far more impressive is the Free Blade System. Stored on Otsune’s back are six one-sided cleaver blades with built-in hoverballs and control modules. These cleavers, each about two feet long can detach to float freely behind Otsune’s back in the rough shape of wings. These blades can be combines with one another into larger cleavers, the largest form of which includes all six and is as big as Revenant Otsune herself. She commands the cleaver/s to attack with electronic signals, most of which operate from hand motions. The signal extends only a short way, limiting the Free Blade System’s range.

Helix Launcher [Lvl 1]: three-missile pods attached beneath the upper arm
Free Blade System [Lvl 1]: array of six floating cleavers to be cast or combined

Techniques:
Burabura Boost – any number of the mobile rockets situated throughout the armor system fire, propelling Otsune in any direction. It enables her to perform Rocket Techniques, which include: clothesline, lunging grab, straight lunge, rocket roundhouse, rocket sidekick, flash kick, and Dead Lift
Dead Rising – a rocket-propelled uppercut. The pain can be continued by following up with a missile salvo.
Oni - boosters active, Otsune rolls into a protective ball and flies forward with great force.

Free Blade System
Onna Getcha – the Free Blade System forms the cleavers into the shape of a fanged mouth that lunges out to deliver a vicious bite
Kyodai-Na – the Free Blade System assembles all of the cleavers into a single, giant cleaver to deliver huge, brutal strikes
Tengu - with the Free Blade System assembled into wings, Otsune performs a series of flips, striking with each in turn
Rokuro-kubi - all of the cleavers overlap, then extend all at once in a telescoping fashion, goring straight through enemies in a line.

Sargon Bel

[Character]

Name: Sargon Bel
Gender: Male
Age: 49

Race: Human

Appearance: Sargon combines propriety with straightforward simplicity to create a look both functional and stylish. His skin is very dark and his hair close-shaven enough to give the appearance of baldness; a large nose and piercing blue eyes -achieved through the use of colored contact lenses, without which he can barely see- distinguish his face. Sargon is very fit for his age, and he wears a slate blue suit unbuttoned along with a white undershirt, striped tie, and thick-soled black shoes.

Faction: Humanity (Gilgamesh CEO)

Personality: Sargon is intelligent, proud, and dedicated. He believes in the fundamental goodness of humanity and the fundamental necessity of freedom, and to that end has made it his cause to empower humanity against heaven and hell. His ultimate goal, which has become the mission of Gilgamesh Inc, is to make humanity an authority the equal of heaven and hell. On a personal note, Sargon is an inspiring leader, skilled in connecting with his fellow man. His charisma is second only to his perseverance.

[Combat]

Powers and Abilities:
-none-

Style:
Bullet Art [Lvl 2]: The Impunity Drive makes Sargon the ruler of projectiles. He can stop, slow down, speed up, spin, curve, and control the ricochet of bullets. In addition, he can deflect and divert energy-pased projectiles, be they technological or magical.

Equipment:

FullDescription

One of the pinnacles of Gilgamesh technology is not a cybernetic augmentation or doomsday device, but a simple and deadly combination. The Miracle Maker is a magnum pistol connected to the Impunity Drive, which is an engine strapped to Sargon’s wrist both technological and magical in nature. While the Miracle Maker is a lethal weapon on its own, its true power comes from the Drive, which not only makes bullets float around the weapon, which reload it automatically, but also enables him to perform practically any shot with it he could possible want.

Miracle Maker [Lvl 2] - a magnum pistol with incredible properties
Impunity Drive [Lvl 2] - a half-magnetic, half-magical projectile manipulator

Techniques:
Miracle Maker
Kick Six - Sargon unloads all six shots in quick succession, and they all home in on a single target to keep it juggled
Flea Flicker - After aim is taken, a single shot is unleashed that travels at incredible speed and recoils off all solid surfaces, including other bullets, in an area.
Zone Blitz - A number of bullets are positoned above a certain area. An enemy that moves beneath them triggers the bullets to rain down and rip through.
Split End - Sargon fires four bullets, each one hanging in the air until the others are right beside it. It then shoots forward, and when near a target, explodes like a shotgun blast.
Crackback Block - The floating bullets zoom into action, whirling around Sargon in a defensive tornado
Blowout - An empowered, charged shot that shreds armor
End Zone - All of Sargons floating bullets move to occupy an area of his choice. They lie in wait until an enemy is in the center of the area, at which point the zone activates. Whenever the enemy moves within a bullet’s path, that bullet fires. End Zone is a deathtrap.

Gomory

[Character]

Name: Gomory
Gender: Female
Age: ???

Race: Demon

Appearance: To ordinary people, Gomory appears as a voluptuous human female of Chinese heritage. She wears a revealing pink cheongsam and yellow sash in a ceremonious manner, as well as sandals and a pin in her long brown hair. A golden necklace with a pink gem inladen hangs around her neck. Prominent eyeshadow and lipstick feature upon her face, though it never hosts a smile. Gomory gives the impression of an austere, untouchable beauty. However, when the gig is up parts of Gomory’s true form appears. She sprouts purplish-gray horns and her right arm adopts the same consistency, with enhanced musculature and fearsome claws.

Faction: Hell (Talent Seeker and Warrior)

Personality: For a demon, and one possessed of such exquisite physical beauty, Gomory is rather restrained. She is capable of incredible violence, of course, but she prefers to heighten the impact of such moments by keeping them few and far between. If the legions of hell are a blunt instrument, Gomory is a scalpel. Despite her generally cold and unfriendly demeanor, which are byproducts of a serious nature, she is exceptionally talented at pretending at emotions in order to manipulate. This, combined with her nose for suffering, anger, and so forth, make her an ideal talent seeker and recruiter for hell. Her overriding motive is dedication to Mundus and his goals, not out of personal adoration or sycophantic inclination, but as her duty. While possessed of intense pride in her faction, she is not proud herself, and rather self-effacing if anything.

[Combat]

Powers and Abilities:

Full Description

Not all demons scoff at elegance and ignore beauty. Beauty, of form and movement, is a central part of Gomory’s nature, and it is evident in her abilities. Yet, her most formidable power, Devil Trigger, foregoes the beauty of form and movement for the single absolute beauty: death. Unrecognizeable as female, let alone human, this demon form allows her to shrug off incoming damage as she regenerates at an absurd rate. Her attacks are empowered by virulent corruption, resembling paint but with wildly clashing colors, and what they don’t kill they will forever change.

Devil Trigger - Gomory unleashes the true demon of corruption within, and unsheathes her blade.

Style:
Moonlight Dance [Lvl 2]: with her blade, Gomory can manifest and manipulate shadowy lightwaves to attack from range or across great areas. Additionally, this light can explode from her body, and blind her enemies
Cherry Blossom Dance [Lvl 2]: cherry blossom petals fill the air as gravity forgets about Gomory. She has complete aerial domination with this style active, able to spin and slash hard a hurricane of petals and twist as fast.

Equipment:

FullDescription

Rather than unsheathing her intricate Tai Chi sword, Jiaolong, Gomory strikes with the sheathed blade and uses it as a catalyst for her demonic magic. So sharp is this legendary sword that it is capable of cutting things apart even while inside the sheath; this feat must be seen to be believed. It also serves as a bludgeon, and to channel blasts, arrows, and waves of multicolored magical paint for combat.

Jiaolong [Lvl 2] - a Chinese Tai Chi sword functionally similar to a katana, and a magic catalyst

Techniques:
Jiaolong
Decoupage - a lightning-fast flurry of blows with the sheathed Jiaolong that juggles the enemy
Crosshatching - Gomory lunges forward while spinning, executing first an upward left diagonal attack followed by a rotating downward left diagonal attack.
Marbling - a slam of the sheathed blade against the ground that quakes the ground and emits blasts of ink from the cracks
Pointalism - a series of quick stabs with the sheathed blade that launch arrows of paint as projectiles
Surrealism - after a moment, a pillar of paint appears beneath enemies, launching them upward after hurting them.
Abstractism - the sheathed blade channels a great quantity of paint that emerged in a giant glob. When Gomory wills it, this glob explodes outward into a myriad of shapes and spikes, hardening quickly.

Devil Trigger
Minimalism - after a brief wind up, Gomory performs a single, unremarkable slash with Jiaolong, which more often than note eviscerates the target in a single hit
Illusionism - Gomory crafts doppelgangers of herself out of corruption that attack on their own and explode upon death
Fauvism - corruption surges through Gomory’s left arm as she reaches out to grab. Once she’s caught a living thing, the demonic corruption surges in, and the victim is transformed into a demon. Stronger souls take longer to transform.

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay Mk.II

Three collabs and a post on my own, @Hael. Nyahah.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

Blair

Name: Blair (is called Layla by some, possibly one of the names she used to go by)
Gender: Female
Age: ???
Race: Demon

Appearance: While in Devil Trigger, her hands turn to sharp talons, grows black wings and has Cloven Hooves. In Blood Rage, her eyes turn crimson red.

Faction: Hell, Serving as one of Mundus' generals.

Personality: She's an enigma to say the least, one that can either be easy to read at times or near impossible, depending on who you ask and what state she's in. Normally, she's cold and quiet, speaking only during times she deems necessary (or rather when she feels like it), occasionally resorting bodily gestures (like nod of the head or her hands) in repliance (to the displeasure of most who deal with her, some feeling insulted). However, her personality drastically changes when she activates her Devil Trigger, shifting to a darker, crueler and a bit more psychotic personality. She's obedient to the orders given, however, that doesn't exactly mean loyalty. Which is hard to determine since she chooses to remain silent.

Bio: Little is known about her personal history, however, she is a demon that was known hide amongst humanity and cause despair. She is what humanity would deem as a 'vampire'. She is remembered in Scottish mythology as a 'baobhan sith', or a blood-sucking female fairy, known as the 'The White Woman Of The Scottish Highlands." Using her enchanting appearance, she would seduce and lure young travelers to secluded places before attacking them with her sharp talons, when their guard is down, and suck their blood. It was also said she was able to suck out their life force or sexual potency, but who knows if they are true, humans do tend to get imaginative as time advances.

Known as one of Mundus' generals, however, when he was sealed, she was scene in the service of another, strongly implied to be the queen (sheba), but again, who knows if they're true, hard to find evidence when all who claim it are now dead. Just as she was long ago, she's a demon almost no one knows anything about.

Mhmm, yea I'm not expecting for most, if not all to be acceptable because I just want to see how far I can take it or see what would be acceptable, insight, if you will. As a 'Demon General' character, wasn't sure where to draw the line or whatever. Also, the last bit of the bio, it's merely an implication and/or possible rumor/plot line to be explored. Like you know how people love to create controversy or try to remove a rival/thorn in ones side to gain power and one could use the rumor to try to move past/take down Sheba. Or a possibly a change in affiliation or whatever in the 2000 years he has been sealed and/or a potential plot to grab power. Merely something to put in the GMs hands to do whatever you guys want.

@I-Am-X

I actually don't see any problems. She's got a lot going for her ability-wise, but the nature of level-one abilities and weapons means she's not inherently overpowered. Giving your character some intriguing connections to the backstory is actually a very good idea! We were definitely planning to have some big sections of this RP being character-driven, and the way you've set it up, you already have a potential subplot going for you. All in all, Blair's good. I'm for her acceptance.

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

Indigo Afina - Frenzy Plant Stands

@lunarlors34@liferusher

If anything came close to rocking the generally proper composure of Frenzy Plant's premier sorceress, it was the heart-throbbing manner in which Thor, enervated and badly burned, plummeted from the floating platform toward the sand. The main even ended soonafter with Rider's Blade in possession of a deserved and hard-fought victory, but even before the scores were tallied a chunk of Frenzy Plant's soldiers, including Indigo, vaulted over the railing to race toward where Thor lay limp, hoist her little body between them, and hurriedly ferry her to the medical wing. Morimato Tsubano began her chants immediately, conjuring flickering lights, greenish fog, and her living dolls to toddle around carrying necessary objects back and forth. Of course, the soldiers knew better than to crowd a wounded ally, even in the aftermath of the dramatic reveal of her face. The sight of Thor's small features drew sympathy from every heart, yet the group of guild members departed to let her rest in peace.

A few minutes later, the group resettled in the stands for the next event. Indigo trailed behind, wondering whether or not she would fight. Neither Phoenix Wing nor Rider's Blade could expect any sort of favors from the warrior guild. As she approached her guild's seating, Indigo nearly bumped into a young woman with long, burgundy hair and revealing but stylish clothes. Like her, this young lady appeared intent on approaching the place where Frenzy Plant watched the games. Immediately Indigo's mind filled with questions; was she some sort of guild wizard, perhaps hosting unkind intentions against her comrades? Did she represent some other, more important interest? Or, perhaps, was she some sort of warrior looking to test their mettle against trained soldiers? If so, she would not be the first. Despite the myriad ways in which such an individual could be a pain at minimum and a catastrophe at worst, Indigo felt no fear. Few could recognize her without seeing the woman whose radiant Whitesky Eye created a weather anomaly over the entire city just yesterday.

Indigo determined that the best way to deal with the young lady would be to ask. "Hello there, miss." She gave a businesslike smile. Nearly everyone who passed by the receptionist's desk on their way into the Frenzy Fort knew it well. "You seem interested in Frenzy Plant. Might I be able to assist you in any way?"

Mark of the Demons - A World Turned to Hell

I owe you guys I huge apology. I put a lot of effort into making this RP, getting it off the ground, finding members but the reality is that I don't think I have time to GM it. I'm already involved in three RPs which I'm barely keeping up with and that's when I only need to be cursorily involved with what my specific character is doing. When I first made this I didn't realize the level of commitment and time that is required from a GM. You have my deepest regrets but between getting through my last year of High School, a part time job, my other three RPs and everything else that goes on in my life I don't think I have time to run "Mark of the Demons". Its a wonderful RP with a lot of potential and you have all been great people to Roleplay with for the brief time that this has been active. If at some point in the future my life is less crowded with unfortunately more important things I will attempt to restart this RP and when I do I will contact each and every one of you to see if this world still interests you. I've put a lot of effort into making the world of Valeria and while I'm not willing to let it die it is going to have to wait for another day. I'm sorry to all of you, if this story meant as much to you as it does to me then I know you are deeply disappointed. I wish you luck on your future roleplaying endeavours and hopefully we'll have the chance to work together again in the future.

@Prince of Seraphs

No problem, I understand completely. Thanks for doing your best.

The Three Realms War [A DMC, Bayonetta and Darksiders RP]

Came here since Sho was talking about it on skypeeeee.

Definitely interested in making a Demon General. I have no knowledge of Darksiders and DMC (never was able to play the games or whatever) and my only Bayonetta experience is with the movie, though.

Been fond of a making an evil character (due to a lot of rps failing in which I made an evil character for, I never did got to play a proper one). Will make an attempt at one.

@I-Am-X

Splendid!

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

I must say, I'm not a terribly big fan of this awards system. Making content with new or exciting themes can be fun and distracting, as we do in contests, but simply having to read other people's posts so that they have a chance at getting extra stuff. I don't think it will encourage anyone to read anything that they wouldn't already. Plus, there are people who do and don't want to compete. If I enter a contest, then I'm setting myself up for evaluation, but in my regular posting I don't necessarily want to be graded.

ADDITION: Having the option for people to earn extras is fine; making it so that they have to participate or might be seen as not cooperative, all for the sake of 'bragging rights', could be problematic. Besides, who except the same sort of people who win the writing contests will win these awards as well, giving them even more stuff, and the people who felt bad about their writing before will have nowhere to escape from it.

I think the system of competition we had for the contests will be fine on its own.
