Epic drawing by the way NK, but.....is that Travis Touchdown?! *U*
He used to have Travis as his appearance, but ever since I drew him separately, he started to turn into a very different character, both in terms of personality and visual depictions. He's come a pretty long way for a character I originally made for one (or two, i dunno) roleplay(s).
”Water, water freakin’ EVERYWHERE, and not a single drop to drink! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-” -Ryuu at an aquarium when he was younger
Ryuu Yamauchi
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Powers
Plasma Manipulation: Ryuu Yamauchi can manipulate and generate plasma of many kinds. He must touch an object in order to generate plasma.
Ninja Book-Reader: Ryuu has the ability to read so stealthily, one may think that he’s watching porn.
Slightly Tough Guy: Ryuu is moderately fit, despite never showing that he exercises that much outside of his school activities. He has the potential to become physically stronger.
Instinct: Though Ryuu is usually one of the densest people around, once he becomes suspicious of something, he can become extremely aware of the mentioned thing’s actions and behavior. Catching his attention in a fight against him is not recommended due to the fact that he has a fair amount of combat potential.
Abilities
Wild Imaginations: Ryuu can generate wild imaginations. They can be read whenever he appears in a post and has wild imaginations.
Suffix Screamer: In order to sound respectful and angry towards certain people, he may add in a random Japanese suffix, making those who attach Japanese suffixes to the ends of their sentences feel ten thousand times more shameful just because he says it.
Bake: Ryuu is decent at cooking. Just don’t make him bake. He nearly got arrested for being mistaken as a terrorist.
Extra Pair: Ryuu has two pairs of shades with him by default. One is yellow, the other is sky-blue. He has other sunglasses that have different colors, but they all have the same general shape.
Skip Beat: Ryuu jumps forward, leaping over incoming attacks, as he spins vertically before slashing forward as he lands. When used in air, Ryuu slightly moves forward when he “jumps” again.
Beelzebub 1000-Volt Tesla Crash: Ryuu forms a mark of a devil’s contract on his arm by channeling plasma from his clothes to it. The next attack he sends will cause an eruption of plasma to explode between him and his target, dealing an even amount of damage. This ability is useful against those who have much higher physical strength than Ryuu, as the plasma disregards how strong the incoming attack it receives is.
Crazy Tokyo Paradise: Ryuu spins with his blade. If he spins for more than two seconds, Ryuu will form a visibly bright and short “tornado” around him, shielding him from incoming attacks that are too weak to handle the spin’s power. If he spins for more than four seconds, Ryuu will spin one last time before slashing at the air, causing a small eruption of plasma to burst in all directions.
Fairy Tail: Ryuu coats his glove (or any random object) before leaping forward as he punches, holding his blade on his other hand in the process. The blade is pointed behind him. If Ryuu successfully punches the target, he will proceed to slash upward with the strangely held blade before twisting his body around, delivering another slash that knocks away the target.
Fate Alter: Ryuu raises his blade before slashing down, striking the earth and causing a burst of plasma to erupt from the ground in front of him. Fate Alter can protect Ryuu from certain projectiles, and also knocks targets into the air.
Bleach Wiper: Ryuu skids across a wall, slowly gathering speed as he uses his blade as a portable rail, moving up as he continues to slide. As soon as he kicks himself off of the wall, Ryuu may either use Bleach Wiper again, perform Skip Beat, or simply do nothing. Ryuu can potentially use this to climb walls during combat, but can also use Bleach Wiper to target critical weakpoints against large enemies. Bleach Wiper can be used on anything solid.
Giga Drill Dunk: Ryuu forms a ball of plasma before leaping into the air if he is not already airborne. As the ball of plasma begins to spin rapidly, Ryuu drives the orb onto a target location beneath him within a short radius. When the orb pushes a target against a solid surface, it explodes, dealing no damage to Ryuu himself. When the orb hits a target but not against a solid surface, the ball simply explodes and pushes the opponent away. Giga Drill Dunk has the unique feature of generating and absorbing high temperatures, making it extremely useful in hot areas such as deserts. Ryuu may occasionally sing “Space Jam” if he defeats a target with this. The ball can never leave Ryuu’s body directly unless it collides against a target. The ability can be performed in midair to shorten the initiation time.
Gigantic Dunk Breaker: A longer version of Giga Drill Dunk. Ryuu shouts a signature catchphrase, before propelling himself into the air, creating a ball of plasma twice as large as Giga Drill Dunk’s version. If Ryuu falls on the terrain, a shockwave will blow targets off their feet. If Ryuu successfully catches a target and knocks them onto the ground with the ball, the shockwave will push away surrounding targets with greater force. Takes longer to perform but deals more damage. Can be performed in air to shorten the initiation time.
Rushdown: Ryuu either slashes or stabs rapidly in front of him for up to two seconds. This ability can be used in air and on the ground. Rushdown can pressure enemies with its unpredictably fast speed, as it can be activated much faster than people think. When in air, both forms of Rushdown slows Ryuu’s falling momentum.
Bulwark: Ryuu forms a shield composed of plasma on a free arm. The shield naturally eats magic projectiles and is effective against weapons, but it prevents Ryuu from being able to extend his lightsaber. It also makes the lightsaber deal less damage, and cannot be activated in all of his Transburst Modes. He cannot use any other ability while Bulwark is active.
NiseShin: (Locked Ability) Ryuu creates a clone composed of plasma that looks exactly like him. The clone can use his attacks, powers, and even his abilities (excluding NiseShin). The clone follows his actions when not ordered to do anything specific such as moving to a certain location. The clone can perform up to three attacks before vanishing. NiseShin is unable to clone Overdrive attacks and initiate Transburst Modes.
Transburst Modes
Strawberry Panic: Ryuu coats himself in a layer of plasma for up to twenty seconds. The mode can be cancelled at any time. During SP, Ryuu can deal damage just by touching targets and has a naturally heightened tolerance against attacks. In return, he cannot extend his lightsaber from its default length and cannot use certain abilities that use too much plasma.
Rasengan: Ryuu’s eyes crackle with energy during this mode. The mode lasts up to twenty seconds and cannot be cancelled out of. Ryuu can randomly cast projections of himself, each projection being able to perform one action before vanishing. His speed also increases drastically, but his strength decreases at a noticeable amount. His lightsaber cannot be extended from its default length, and his abilities’ cooldowns are doubled.
Hobbies
Working, reading manga, making punks have second thoughts about their lives, fighting, doing housework while watching anime and other random shows
Likes/Dislikes
+ Anime/Manga + Active work + Martial arts and beatdowns + Reading novels + Blaming nachos for every mistake he makes
- Nachos - People peeking over at his stuff - “Are you an otaku?” - “ARE YOU AN ARTIST???” - “IS THAT HENTAI?” - Having his sunglasses getting taken off
Weaknesses
Ryuu has partial photophobia, which makes his powers hard to use without his sunglasses. He can also feel quite lightheaded when interacting with “hot” women, and can feel ticked off at both genders in different ways. Ryuu favors aggressive methods to reach his goals, making him rash at random times that make him- justifiably- excited. He does not know that his nervousness to women is actually a strange case of partial gynophobia and a very small tinge of masochism, which makes his distaste in masochism in general quite ironic.
Personality
A tough life is the life that chose Ryuu. Armored with a mean-and-lean demeanor, he displays an unusual amount of activity for one who reads so many mangas and watches too much anime. The man enjoys beating the crap out of people who cross the line in ticking him off (mostly in martial arts), and he has a strange aura of tension due to his general nervousness of interacting with people. As the rich Yamauchi family’s third and last sibling, he enjoys living the way he wants to live, but sometimes doubts his own choices. He is not a man with a good heart, but he is clearly aware of what is right and wrong, and what hurts him and the many defenseless people he used to live with.
Though Ryuu interacts normally with men, he can react abnormally when he interacts with women. His wild imaginations may make him seem like a crazy monster steam-rolling through his sanity, but Ryuu is actually influenced by the many shows and comics he watched and read, thus twisting his view of reality and fantasy quite nicely (lol). His plasma powers have a side-effect of making him nosebleed very often. Sometimes, perverseness can get in the way of Ryuu’s true motives. He tries to keep such thoughts in a dark corner of his head.
Background
Nothing much is known about Ryuu. He was raised in the Yamauchi family, learned about his powers after tearing the roof off on accident, and was soon sent to Orean Cause after his middle school years. Wherever he went, he was allowed to wear sunglasses due to his partial photophobia.
Anyway, I'm preparing a surprise CS that quite literally came out of nowhere after I thought about a particular roleplay. He'll be up soon.
EDIT: Destiny, you better eat something like mush foods as soon as your stomach recovers at least slightly. Keeping yourself hydrated is good, but don't go ahead drinking too much water. 7.8/10
I drew traditional art! I originally thought about using this character for this roleplay, but I decided to use him in another one.
His basic premise was that his weapon could preserve its multi-Dust blade for prolonged amounts of time, and the more damage he deals, the less damage he receives. He's a manga-maniac and brags about his little and older sisters for some reason. I honestly feel like he's one of my favorite characters, so I decided to share him to you guys. xD
What did the name, Deathedge, hold onto? No one was sure of it. Some predicted him to hold a dark past due to his rumored criminal background. Others thought of him to be a murderer who lurked in the dark, waiting to empower himself by feasting upon the blood of others. No matter how outrageous he was thought to be, all sorts of rumors were considered to be possibilities.
What they did know was that Deathedge had the power to obliterate a truck flying towards him at two-hundred miles per hour. All he needed was a single swipe of his hand, and he would somehow send the truck werving away. No matter how one looked at it, it was as if God himself was born within a man.
Did he have a heart? Did he hold mercy? Did he believe in honor? Who was Deathedge? What was he, and how did he become what he was now? Though a trail of dark rumors followed his name, his actions spoke brightly. For when he struck the truck, he had done so to smash it away from a little girl. When he had to slam his head against a soda machine, he did so because the soda did not come out of the machine. When he had to do his homework, he had to do so with great frivolity so that he could watch the television news for the sake of his family.
...
...
...
...
...
Well, Deathedge thought as he sat on a bench, bullsh%# is bullsh%#. I still can't believe some idiot was allowed to write up a newspaper article like that.
The man known as Deathedge sat on a bench within a certain academy he was brought into. His eyebrows were furrowed, his eyes were closed, his hands were in his pockets, and his attitude was outright pessimistic right at the moment. "Why," one may ask.
The truth was that Deathedge was neither a freakish serial killer nor some suicidal vigilante. In fact, Sangue Rana wanted to live a normal life. He had no idea on how the heck he could actually achieve a normal life if everyone consistently hailed him as some sort of death god. In fact, he wished for someone to talk back at whatever mean words he had to say.
Street punks disappointed him the most. He once told a group of hoodlums robbing a young lady to "scram," and they acted like they were facing divine retribution and ran away. Deathedge, however, did manage to catch them by using his secret ability: calling the cops.
"Soon, Deathedge," he muttered to himself as he slouched a little on the bench he sat on. "Soon, you'll get that life you want... Hopefully.
...
As Deathedge enjoyed the moment of peace by himself, he felt a certain emptiness in his stomach catch his attention.
Should he go get a snack?
...No...
I NEED TO EAT MY LUNCH! The man screamed internally as he threw himself off of the bench. God, I'm hungry.
With a deathly aura emitting out of him, the man slowly reached out for his pocket. A few students who managed to spot him felt themselves tense at the sight of him reaching for his pocket.
"Isn't that...?" A bald student asked his pompadour-haired friend.
"It is, m'friend," the pompadour guy said as his breaths became short and heavy. "It's him. I read about him before. What's he doing here? What the heck is he reaching for?"
Deathedge shoved his hand in his pocket.
"HE SHOVED HIS HAND INTO HIS POCKET!"
"MOTHER OF GOD..."
He slowly pulled his hand out of his pocket.
"Bejeebus meleebus patricinasus, what can it be?!"
The white-haired man revealed a peanut-butter sandwich wrapped in a red plastic wrapper. Unfortunately for him, his reputation stirred a good amount of misunderstandings.
"HE'S EATING BLOOD! GOOD GAWHAHHDAFGSNWIAMD-"
"WHOA, WAIT UP!"
Deathedge ignored the sound of the two horrified students running away from him as he unwrapped the thing he held onto so dearly.
He swore that no matter where he went, there was at least one mofo to ruin his day just by knowing him. The man soon found himself eating the sandwich hungrily, devouring half of it in... a minute.
He wondered why some people believed that he could eat a horse in thirty seconds.

Disc O. Baylor
A tune slowly oozed around the school. What kind of tune? A musical tune. What kind of musical tune? A tune with bass.
Lots and lots of bass.
Disc O. Baylor loved music, yet he was considerate enough not to blast out music at full volume at the school. Instead, he blasted music through some headphones, his body naturally making motions as he walked outside the main building. Music was his groove, and it was disco was his jam. Disco was love, music was life.
As he walked, the student suddenly stopped moving, pumping his neck and chest along with the beats of the music he listened to, before returning back to his little walk. He could feel the burn of disco lighting an adrenaline deep within him.

Saya
A girl held onto a white doll tightly as she entered the school building timidly.
A blank expression, a strange spiritual aura, and a curiosity that strove within her. The dark-haired girl known as Saya walked, almost as if tip-toeing her way. Her footsteps made light, delicate taps that barely made themselves audible. Dressed in red, orange, and a small tinge of black, Saya looked like a doll moving on its own.
She learned how to walk not too long ago. Her isolation from the world had made her forget how to walk, so she had to learn how to do so again. Thankfully, the girl caught up quickly, and now knew how to walk a little. She still waddled every now and then in her attempts to keep her body straight.
The girl's grip on her doll tightened. Holding it closely to herself, the girl looked around, allured by the building's curiously large structures.
Saya wandered into one of the many classrooms.
Two spirits quietly followed the girl, one an angel and one a demon. The blonde angel hummed a tune she randomly made up, while the skeletal demon focused on looking for anything that he could hurt with a good excuse. They had polar opposite attitudes.
When Saya walked into a random classroom, however, Ilvya stopped humming and became alarmed.
"...Ah! Saya, you're not taking that class!"
"Let the girl do what she wants, you young, young fool."
"Don't tell me on what to do, you greasy buttmunch!"
"..."
Duatos wondered if it was possible for dry skeletons to emit grease from their bones. Meanwhile, Ilvya proceeded to put her hands on Saya's waist and moved her out of the classroom.
Saya blinked as she was moved back by an invisible force. Looking back, she stared at something with a curious look.
"You're not taking any classes today, remember?" Ilvya reminded the girl with a kind smile. "Go; let's look for your dormitory! How does that sound?"
Saya nodded slowly, turning away from what she was staring at. With the doll in her arms, she walked deeper into the school.

Mithril Linseis
A man folded his next lesson plans as if they were origami papers.
Mithril Linseis grinned as he froze himself. Letting his hands back away from the Eiffel Tower he spent time on for the entire day, he walked away from the amazingly complex structure of origamis, taking out his phone before taking as many photos as he could. After capturing photos of the Tower in so many angles, he stood up, dusted his coat, and placed his phone on his bed.
For the entire day, he had spent time making the Tower because he memorized all of the lessons he needed to teach for the next few months. There really was nothing for him to do other than mess around doing seemingly pointless things. In truth, such pointless things actually kept his mind processing, allowing him to memorize so many lessons in the first place. It was a secret that only those who worked hard knew of: to be good at something, one should not stop doing something else when they have the time to do so. Just because he was good at his programming class did not mean that he would do good in making a video game; he would need to find satisfaction and inspiration by playing video games while maintaining his knowledge in programming.
Fortunately for him, he was no longer a programmer. The company he set up, after all, was full of programmers. No need for a director to keep programming by himself, right?
Putting on his sunglasses, the man went over to the corner of his bedroom, picking up a white piece of wood.
He then did the one thing many origami constructors would scream at.
"HEAVE-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
The man leapt on his Eiffel Tower, effectively crushing it with his body weight. As hundreds of origami papers flew around and rolled across the room, Linseis found himself tumbling through his bedroom door.
Bursting through the partially shut door, the man stopped rolling in front of the head of his maids.
"...Greetings, Mr. Linseis. You're late for work."
"...I am?"
"Yes."
"But... isn't it Labor Day?"
"Mr. Linseis," the maid said with an emotionless expression as she suddenly took out a small calendar from her apron. "Labor Day does not exist in the school you are teaching."
"WHAT?! How come?! Agh- screw it. I'm going to establish Labor Day somehow. Just you wait!"
"That is good and all, but Mr. Linseis, we need you to get to the school as soon as possible. Some of your substitutes are panicking because they think that you died due to an unknown circumstance. It is possible that if you are fired, we maids will be able to follow your 12th Maid Amendment and circumcise you, therefore effectively preventing you to be unable to have children through se-"
"Sweet Jesus; itadaki-f*cking-masu."
__________________
It took Linseis a bit to avoid getting scolded by his other maids, but he soon found freedom when he arrived at his mile-wide garage. Putting up a thoughtful look, he wondered vehicle he should pick for the day.
Lamborghinis were his cheapest means of transportations, so he did not plan on using them until he went for some freaky joyride to a beach. The motorcycles he had, on the other hand, were pretty good, but a bit too flashy even for his tastes. He needed something fitting- something befitting of a teacher who wanted to excite students.
His eyes fell upon his bicycle.
"..."
Mithril made a mysterious grin.
A few minutes later, the man suddenly burst out of his garage, his bicycle moving with extreme speed. He sat with his arms and legs crossed- his feet resting on the handlebars- as he permitted the bicycle pedal on its own as it pedaled to Orean Cause.
Also, Destiny, I'm right now debating on whether to make a familiar character of mine to replace Ren for this RP now that the Athalia Reboot is going to kick up in a few months. (hint: he's an otaku)
