*Morella Cinder*

Morella was stopped before she left the room, by a girl with red hair and blue eyes. From under her hood, she had a quizzical look on her face, before the girl said her name. Sayuri...Mujona, I remember her, she thought, recalling the bouts she saw at the graduation exams. Semblance increases power in a limb, she uses bandages to keep the power from tearing her arms apart and increasing her power... she thought, as she was asked her name. Morella simply replied, "Not important," in answer to the question, moving past her gracefully while keeping her hood low. She saw the other girl checking her weapon, as Morella thought about hers. She tightened her grip on her bag, her boots inside clinking together as she pulled up the bag higher on her shoulder. She hadn't shown them to anyone yet, but she wasn't in the mood for meeting new people again, as the last time nearly caused a fight.

As she tried walking away from the new girl, Morella spotted a boy sitting on a chair, with familiar brown hair and garage stains on his clothes. She didn't smile, because she just didn't smile, but she quickly made her way to the one familiar face she knew and sat next to Tarkus. She plopped down, slouching as she crossed her legs. "Hey, Tark. I hate meeting new people," she said, setting her bag in her lap. She'd spent a lot of time in the same work shop he did, as they both were very interested in weapon experimentation and crafting. All she knew about him was his name, the weapon he used, and that he came from Mistral. And that he might have an uncle named Leon, or Leo. Or Leonard. She didn't know much else, and he was the closest friend she had. However, she could tell he'd had some loss in his life, not because they talked about it, but because she could see the signs. She'd been through the same.

She reached into her back, pulling out a worn cardboard box that gave metallic clinks as she tapped him with it. "Tried the cylinders your suggested, graphite worked surprisingly well for my chambers. Here's the rest, if you need them," she said, setting it beside him, apparently oblivious to his despair of the metallic gauntlet stuck on his arm. She added, "Oh, and you finished with my plasma lathe yet? I don't need it, just wondering," she asked, sighing.

Oliver's ears pricked as he heard some music playing, glancing down the hall and seeing a student sitting in a nearby chair playing a harmonica. "Ah, hang on, Casty, I'll be back in a bit," he said, handing her back her book and swinging off to the other side of the hall. He easily walked from chair back to chair back, keeping his balance though his body was shifted away from the wall, as he neared the one playing. Hooking a leg through a ceiling support, he hung upside down again and pulled out a harmonica of his own. He waited, listening to the guy play as he got the melody, and came in with one of his own that blended with it.

Ugh, Reaps, I changed it so he didn't point the gun, he'd only have pointed if he was being threatened. It was a couple pages back that I mentioned it, guess it got lost with the other posts. >~< He basically just said he'd go for a quickdraw contest if Daiki was raring to fight, but neither drew their weapon. :P

Lucius and I had a plan last time that was slightly different, which I like better. It'll involve them being taken to a new location that includes a couple different environs, part of the entrance into the location will be very dangerous, and it'll involve them searching for things that will complete a device that'll be integral to their stay at Beacon. They way it's set up, it doesn't especially need a theme to make sense, but that makes it a bit difficult to actually name them.

So, little poll, everyone's input appreciated, do you guys want teams of four or two? Four would me more in tune with the show and allow more development in each of the groups, but I think teams of two is good because it can allow for more variety for missions. Two or three teams could be sent, one person designated at mission leader, and that could give multiple people the chance to lead, if their character's suited for it. Thought that means we need twice as many things to name the teams after, of course, as each group of partners would be called something.

And also, what naming theme would people like? We can go Chess pieces, Tarots, maybe legendary beasts, we can add colors for them as well to make them more unique, we could just number them as they finish, etc. What ideas do peeps got?

BB never explicitly raped anybody, though it was not a difficult leap of logic to make. And reports say that anyone involved with BB behind closed doors was found to have later enjoyed the experience in the end. And he/she/it was used to tie up loose ends like characters who's roleplayers left without saying anything, so really, it's their fault for abandoning their creations. But BB won't be as *shudder* if he/she/it shows up again, I could still see uses for the character. But...dear God...>.<

Beacon's Light: Rising - OOC (RWBY)

Oh, gawd, I've been debating with myself whether or not to unleash the BBeast. >~< If so, I may tone him down a bit, just so he's a playful molesting perv and not a terrifying molesting perv.

Gonna check my PM now, Kait. So, guess I'm gonna close the roleplay for applications now, 'cept for datadogie and BuriedComic7, 'cuz they've already submitted CS's. Did I miss any other submissions?

Also, Kait, give a little more in the Sample, have her do something somewhat character defining. :P

EDIT: Yeah, she's Cinderella with glass boots, Arrun is King Arthur, Rose is Sleeping Beauty, Ollie and Dusty are original.

The gunhammer might be too heavy to carry around normally, but Morella pretty much always carries her boots with her. The Obsidium boots anyways, she has her older models in storage. 'Course, you can have Tarkus carry it around if you want, it's just you said it was supah-dupah heavy. :P And I didn't know if you'd wanted him and Jonah to have crossed hammers before, Jonah will prolly just scoff at the Gunhammer when he sees it in action. :P

Edited the part with Daiki, Reaps, is that better?

Beacon's Light: Rising - OOC (RWBY)

I like the tufts of feathers rather than full wings, should be enough to show the "species" while not looking as ridiculous as full wings.

Eh, it is getting a bit full, I might put up a cap now, except for people who've submitted CS's that haven't been approved, they'll get a grace period while editing. And the format for the teams might be slightly different than the show, gonna go over with some ideas with the Co-GM's.

Reaper said
Daiki wouldn't have drawn his sword, he feels he has something to prove but he doesn't go about advertising it. He'd probably just say something along the lines of disliking bullies and how they are all kind of up in the air and about to damage the thing keeping them up.

I'm'ma change it to something else then, maybe Ash just gets his attention, I'll edit it in a bit.

Tarkus approved, yay Gunhammer. :P Jonah (Other hammer guy) has made an appearance, I'll post his and the other jerk CS's later. I was thinking Morella and Tarkus could already know each other a bit, from weapon crafting, similar to how they got to be in the last roleplay, you want Tarkus and Jonah to already hate each other or to grow into Hammer Foes later? :P

EDIT: That's good, that much notoriety can give reason why he'd have been kidnapped when he was younger and also feel entitled growing up. You want him and Arara to have been in the same circles? Jonah's from a mining family, Ash is a descendant to a legendary war hero, and Lorelei is the illegitimate daughter of a famous musician (From the CS's I put last time). Dunno about the little girl, haven't fully written her yet, 'cept she's got an invisible friend with a name that LOL players will find annoying, if research proves correct. :P

Oop, Buried, sorry, missed your character. Eh, question, you gonna be posting in first person or third person? 'Cuz you switched in your CS. And could you expand on his personality? I don't understand if he'd disingenuous and manipulates people or if he just pretends to be nice to make people feel better, or something. And is his weapon a shuriken/gauntlet/gun combo? I would normally say a throwing weapon that transforms into a firearm would be a little ridiculous, but Pyrrha has a rifle that turns into a spear, so I can't say nuthin', I guess. XD

Beacon's Light: Rising - OOC (RWBY)

Approved, adding to bin. Lucy, King, we should try to schedule some time to mehbeh message each other on Skype for story stuff, Demous message me with some ideas that you might like. :P

I dunno, DD, James seems a little bland, and his bio kinda doesn't make sense. It sounds like he just casually waved his hands wanting the dark to go away, and his Semblance just happened to activate then? And then he made up a deity to pray to, I dunno, seems unrealistic to me. And he's supposed to have gone to a school like Signal or Sanctum to prepare to go to Beacon, but I get the feeling from the CS that he just trained privately. But I could be wrong, as it's not explicitly stated how he trained to be a Hunter, but the vagueness is also a problem.

Personally, , and I'm not trying to be rude or anything (I'm very sorry if I come off as such. >~<), I'd change up some things. Having relatively simple weapons isn't a problem, Jaune pretty much just has a sword and shield, and having a limited Semblance isn't really an issue either (Though I think having light and blinding people as your unique power doesn't give you much to work with, but it's possible to expand with it as the story progresses), I just think his backstory could use a little work, and his personality could be expanded upon to be more unique. It just feels like the character's lacking definition, to me, I hope that doesn't come across as rude.

Also, peeps, where on the body would a Bird Faunus have their thingies? I'm thinking either wings on the head or small ones on the back, Lorelei is a Sparrow Faunus, but I wasn't sure where you guys would think would be good to have the signs.
