... What. I'm supposed to post my schedule now? ... Nope. XD

I'll be showing up when I want to and can, won't be showing what time I could potentially be free on so you guys could potentially notice I'm not being here on otherwise free time! XD

Game of Tails

Awwwwwwwww~ Solia is going to be so happy to have a hero like you to befriend~

... Wait, you're afraid of dogs? ... Um... um... am... um... er... ah... I apologize for the method of summoning I'll be sending! ^^'

That said, will I be using dogs like that to do the summoning? Or will I be using some completely separate method to call upon them?

Game of Tails

I am most certainly ready.

Game of Tails

Nicely written. Quite impressive a sheet.
So, now we're just expecting Sky and Xalt to post theirs?

Game of Tails

Same nation as Xalt, currently studying. I'll have time to post whenever otherwise. That's about that.

Also, avatars work now. Edit: Nevermind, now they're all gone. Edit: And now they're back.

Game of Tails

No worries~ Take all the time you need~

IRC conversation relevant to the sheet above~!

<PlatinumSkink> It appears this backstory includes quite a bit of living under unsavory circumstances. *snicker* I'll have to fix that~!
<Zombehs> Well, it wasn't unsavoury until he hit the big city.
<PlatinumSkink> Yes. That was the part I was talking about.
<Zombehs> Ah. Cool, War Games shall remind him of the "good old days". Or something.
<PlatinumSkink> Great~! Though, one small detail.
<Zombehs> Ja?
<PlatinumSkink> ... I think I would be the one that picked the first hero-outfit, wouldn't I be?
<Zombehs> I'm not sure, can't remember how it happened in the show.
<PlatinumSkink> Prepared ahead of time for the hero? *snicker*
<PlatinumSkink> Well, heroes in this case. *snicker*
<Zombehs> But sure, that's cool. /not like he has a choice apparently
<PlatinumSkink> "And I, I kinda like the gaudy yellow color..." The princess says while averting her gaze a bit with a tiny blush and twiddling her fingers...
<PlatinumSkink> *you're completely free to overrule me XD*
<Zombehs> It's cool, Alam can live/deal with it.
<Zombehs> Although he'll probably be in a fine mood for bullying her for a while.
<PlatinumSkink> "*giggle* Thank you~!" The princess says in a happy tone turning towards you with a happy expression with her tail wagging, seemingly completely missing what you said last.
<Zombehs> "Hah..." There wasn't much he could do without feeling a horrible sense of guilt in this situation. While he did vow to make the princess pay for this, one way or another, he could at least let her be happy for the day.
<PlatinumSkink> ... It somehow felt right to say that part in-character. XD
<Zombehs> :D

Game of Tails

So, how's life for everyone?

Game of Tails

... *snicker* I am very certain that your behind locked doors teasing of the princess is met with great success. I'm rather easily teased, after all. I apologize for being a hassle for so long (and possibly a bit longer), thank you. *bow of gratitude*

I am curious. Xaltwind. Which are our surrounding nations, and what might be distinctive about them? Since I was the one who declared war against one of them, I feel that I should get to know a little bit about whatever nation it is I'm attacking. Maybe I'm even allowed to choose which to attack? XD Does sound unlikely, but I do have to ask. Also, in a size comparison, which are the bigger nations and which have the better military forces? I'd know this stuff in-game, anyway.

Character Template

Name: Sfogliatine Zucchero Graelian, usually called Solia (will be changed when other characters decide another name for her, because I am not supposed to be the one who picks the nickname!)
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Race: Dog-girl / Inumimi

Appearance: In casual attire, she looks like this. Here’s an alternative image.
Height: 1.52 meters.
Weight: 38 kg
Hair color: White, though her tail and ears are black for whatever reason.
Eye color: Green
Skin tone: Fair
Misc: She obviously has a fair amount of regal dresses and different items and such. What’s above is simply… … … WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE BECAUSE I COULDN’T FIND ANY GOOD PRINCESSY IMAGES OF MIMIS THAT I LIKED! *grumble*

Personality: Solia has a naturally curious and innocent soul. She is truly still a child. The young princess sometimes has habits of making decisions on the fly without thinking them through, and may sometimes act quite greedily if she thinks she can get away with it. When taken by surprise or is unsure how to act, Solia can seem rather shy, but once she has made a decision she will transcend all that and proceed with decisive and large steps. She can easily become frightened or panic, but despite all of these traits she does try her best to be the best princess possible for her people. Her actions are taken in earnest desire to help her people (and partly herself), though she is a little bit too much of a child for that and she’s somewhat of a clumsy thrill-seeker as well, so it isn’t always that things end up as she envisioned.

- Likes: Lots upon lots of food and pastries, freedom to run and play however she likes, excitement and triumph, the happiness of her people. Yes, they are slightly conflicting, but…
- Dislikes: When she feels incompetent, her own shyness which arises at times, when she fails people’s expectations, when her people suffers, when she’s hungry…
(That last due to a reoccurring punishment she suffered that, when she had done something bad, Solia had to go without food for a little while until the lesson was learned...)

Background: The Princess of Graelian. From the moment of her birth, Solia was a very curious individual. While she had a lot of studies to do and many things to learn as the Princess of a nation, there was little that stopped the young dog from wandering far and wide despite the threat of monsters. Truly, she must have given the royal guard or maids quite the scare multiple times simply by being who she was. Forcing her way, Solia was often taken to countries far and wide simply to sate her curiosity, which in one way paid out because the young princess that way learned a lot about the world and such things (meaning either the GM needs to tell me about the world, or I WILL START MAKING THINGS UP!). As a curious young soul she oft caused trouble by not being where she should be and not being exactly brilliant in her studies. But, she’s a very young princess. Many, including herself believed she had many years left to mature on before finally having to lead the nation, so everybody simply let her be the child she was.

As any individual, Solia was highly taken with the excitement and action of the wars of the realm. She often sat on the edge of her seat with giant eyes watching the fighting citizens as a young pup. As soon as she was able to lift a sword, she tried. And failed. Attempted to pick up another, and failed. So it continued for years, and not because she was too weak to carry one. The princess is simply incapable at skill. Between being a princess and her usual endeavors, there was no way she could become as strong as her knights that trained every single day. However, for her young age she developed a fine combat capability that she is proud of and some quite attuned magical senses that who knows where they came from. She is among those people that the battle truly focuses on, with crest skills and such. However, it should be noted she isn’t actually skilled enough to content with the true champions. She can TRY, but things are likely to go wrong. There was that time she tripped and fell with her back against the hands of a surprised enemy troop that caught her with a multitude of hands on her back to absorb her fall, and because of that…

At one time of her life, a small accident happened that made her left ear get cut in half. That is why she got the habit of wearing that strange head-piece which conceals her ears. The exact nature of the accident is not open for public knowledge. (In fact, I am keeping it open for random incident in the past that may or may not come into play for plot-reasons, I have no idea, I just wanted to address the fact we only see a tail and no ears in the image, hahahahahaha… SHE HAS THEM!)

Then her parents died. Mysteriously. A shocked and quite upset young Solia was asked to lead the nation left behind, and she was far from prepared, mentally or physically. She was aided by her friends and allies, but it was still very difficult for the young princess. Solia was unsure how to lead properly, and on top of that the reports of monsters were growing more frequent. She made the obvious conclusions about the need to defend the nation and so on and so on, but despair hung heavy on the nation. Solia was on the verge of panicking. Was her nation falling apart? Where was her hero to save her…? … … … Hold on.

That’s right. She could summon a hero. But heroes were to be used in wars. … That settles it. For everyone’s excitement and joy, for the bonds that bind the nation of Graelian together, the young Solia decided to strengthen the feeling of nationality by declaring war against a picked neighbor against which battles were to be fought. The white-haired innocent princess was actually not too sure if what she was doing was for the best, but she knew this nation would need a hero. That’s right. Every time a hero was summoned, they’d fix everything, right? That’s what a hero did. One could say this was the princess weakness in hoping to push her own responsibilities onto another, however she truly believed summoning a hero would make everything better. … Actually, her nation was REALLY in trouble now, so… HOW ABOUT SUMMONING TWO!? The thought was too cool not to go through with. Two awesome heroes, fighting side by side as they saved Graelian under her command… It got Solia drooling over the thought. And so, she went towards the site for summoning, magic prepared, determination in her gaze, a battle soon to take place behind her as she intended to give the heroes an awesome introduction…

Solia’s intending on giving each of the heroes one of her nations two national weapons. Because… symbolism.

--- Powers and Abilities ---

Position: Princess

Affinity: Wind

Physical Fitness: Average (still means she defeats regular troops)
Magic Potential: Very High (but remains largely untapped)

It should be noted that Solia fights rather light-weighted. She hates taking blows, so rather than hunk herself up with armor she avoids the enemy blows and strike them from the sides or above, wherever they aren’t ready. It doesn’t always work, however, especially not against those stronger or even as only a bit weaker than her.

One of the princess’ favorite things to do is use her magic to create a pair of wings on her back, a pair of huge ones with a bit of black color, which she will then use to quickly flap for a huge speed-boost to get out of the way of an enemy Special-Attack, save someone else from a tricky spot or just generally move a short distance really, really fast. While this is a fair bit exhausting, it is very often much better than the alternative. It is what Solia does instead of blocking huge blows, which she often enough cannot do.

Weapon Specialization: Large bow, short swords and long swords. She didn’t really stray far from the original training that is given.

--- Special Attacks ---
Name: Crest Cannon
Type: Medium-ranged explosion-beam
Desc: The most basic of the basic. User draws their weapons, focuses on their powers for a number of seconds up until their crest forms behind them, and then slashes the power in front of them for a powerful explosive beam of power which reaches and destroys a large area in front of the user. However, it is quite tiring and will with all likelihood fail to harm anyone of considerable strength. Useful for eliminating large amounts of regular soldiers in one go. Can also be used in tandem with a bow, in which case the beam will be fired directly ahead with excess power surrounding the arrow.

Name: Graelian Fury, Breezing Flurry
Type: Medium-ranged heavy wind.
Desc: The spell requires simply the user to charge an arm with the special power of the crest and direct it in the intended direction. An extremely powerful wind will suddenly blow past the user’s shoulders and in that direction. Common unprepared men or even commanders in the air will find themselves flung into the air for medium distances and projectiles fired in the user’s direction will find themselves blown off-course. It is very useful for protecting own troops, creating disorder among the enemy and disabling airborne foes. Needs to be used carefully, however, as the excess wind can be difficult to control and disturb one’s own forces as well.

Name: Graelian Fury, Unseen Bolts
Type: Long range projectiles
Desc: Arrows filled with considerable power. The spell requires the user to stay in place and charge a number of moments before launching the power contained in the arrow. This spell launches an entire salvo of green magic arrows with a single shot, spreading far and wide over the area which it is fired to make dodging them difficult. In addition, each and every single one of the many arrows will explode upon contact, a relatively small explosion in comparison but the sheer amount of the arrows can easily swipe a field of soldiers or break through defenses like shields or thin structures with multiple moderately heavy-power hits.

Name: Empty Space
Type: None
Desc: The princess has capability for more magical special-attacks, however, for the current moment she is not using all which she would otherwise be capable of. As the story progresses, she may invent more attacks which will then take these slots. For the moment she is still inexperienced and largely unaware of her magic potential, but know that there is room for growth in this royal youth.
