Current I eat negativity and shit out hopes and dreams. Like a tree, but for pessimism.

Good news, I'm not failing out of my cooking course tomorrow! Bad news, it's only because I nearly sliced a chunk off my finger practicing for it and needed stitches.

It's days like today that I truly believe this ADHD is both a blessing AND a curse.

Ok cool. And yeah, I'm actually super glad you didn't start, because I didn't really get a chance to do anything today, and I'm probably going to pretty much redo my entire construct now. Next backstory for it, even more melodramatic! Look forward to it!
@Ammokkx
Ok, that actually makes things a lot clearer, so I'm getting to work again now. That being said, I've just realised that given the setting, I've missed what should've immediately come to mind for the construct, and I'm probably gonna give him a complete overhaul. I really hope you weren't planning to use Emil from Nier for yours though, because I'm probably gonna use him.
@Ammokkx
Hmmm... Ok, new plan. Well, newish plan. Basically, Diz is still a scarf, but he doesn't have humanoid forms. Instead though, he turns into basically any kind of weapon. He can float around independently of his wielder like one of those dancing blades from fantasy and junk, but when he's being held by his contractor, his fibres, which are some kind of crazy eldritch super hard thread instead of normal fabric, can burrow through the contractors hand and spread through the body, drastically increasing their physical abilities while they're connected. If the threads burrow through enough, or simply wrap around the outside, it can cover the wielders body to become kind of like a uniform, so I can still keep the magical girl style transformations. Also, he can produce red and black energy beams, for the magical girl style attacks.

I wanna make Ren a magical boy.

Maybe I'll have him learn how to make more complicated energy-based attacks, or maybe even fibre-based attacks. I'll admit I don't really know what I should be doing, because I'm usually told I make my characters too overpowered rather than underpowered.
Ok... In my defence, the edgy thing was just meant to be a joke from me, mostly stemming from you mentioning Coldsteel. And yeah, don't worry about the melodrama, that isn't how I normally write either. I just kinda started off with it and realised I was in too deep too late.

Anyway, the original idea was to give Diz a kind of black and red energy blast that combined with Ren's wind to use cool anime sword beams, or fire out projectiles when he punches like Asura from Asura's Wrath in humanoid form. Mostly because I based his humanoid form on Berserker Asura. As in I stole a picture of him. Anyway, if I added that back in, would that make him seem different enough?

@ERode
I can't see that happening unless something else somehow makes him one. It's not like he has gunpowder or any other kind of explosive elements. Also, he's pretty durable, so it probably wouldn't work even if he was wrapped around gunpowder. But... if for whatever reason he was turned into a bomb and it did explode him, he'd probably just turn back to dead fabric.
Alright, here I am swooping in at the last possible second with my two brand new original characters, Shyboy and Edge! Let me know how much they suck, and if that much is too much.



@Ammokkx
Probably a bad idea to give an idiot like me so much freedom, but hey, as long as you don't regret it...
Sorry about taking so long for my character, I was working on a post, but had to take a break for a few days due to being sick enough that I think I might literally have thrown up my appendix. Don't ask how, because I don't know.

Anyway, I have a very important question. Say my construct was a shapeshifting scarf that can morph into a katana or a humanoid costume form for the cool magical boy-esque transformation scenes. Aside from 'edgy weebs wet dream', what do you think would be most accurate to put in for type? Like, do you think he would fit better as an Abomination, some other kind like Costume? Or just Scarf, maybe. Just having a bit of trouble figuring out what would be most suitable.

Founders Festival

October 1st, 12:15 pm| @SamaraJayne96@Lionhearted


If Jeremy was being completely honest, he wasn't sure he was enjoying this festival. Sure, as far as festivals went, it was definitely one of the better ones, with plenty of stalls and activities to keep him busy, and just straight up nice decor all around, but for some reason it seemed a little difficult for him to enjoy himself as he wandered the grounds. Maybe it was the fact that he'd accidentally torn his jacket on a broken hinge in the tiny, cheap apartment he was currently renting, and so had no way to keep out the little, uncomfortable chill that apparently decided to hang around despite it already being midday. Maybe it was the fact that he'd also cut himself at the same time he tore said jacket, and had an annoyingly decent chance of getting tetanus.

Maybe, just maybe, it could even be the fact that there was a vampire sitting not too far from where he currently stood sending out such a heavy aura of dark magic it actually left him feeling a little nauseous...

But hey, who could say? As far as he could see, there was an equal chance for any of the three to be the right answer! Definitely no obvious signs that could let him know for sure, no siree!

But yeah, vampire. He wasn't particularly used to seeing them sitting so blatantly out in the open, but hey! At least that was proof of this place being the kind of supernatural hotbed that Hannah could definitely maybe have come to! Probably. Anyway, he'd have to ask around about that later in the night, probably in the bar scene. Maybe he could even ask the vampire herself. Of course, the whole 'dark magic' thing made that a little more complicated. Not just because he wasn't sure he could get close to her without feeling sick yet, but also moral reasons. He was rambling. He should stop. Especially since he'd been staring at the woman during his mental planning and he was fairly certain she'd have noticed by now. Maybe even written something about him in that

He took a deep breath in and out, and did his absolute best to tune out the dark magic. He only kind of succeeded, but it was better than nothing, and now he could return to his original plan for the day.

Buy cool shit and try to make friends.

He wasn't sure how well step two was gonna go considering his usual social skills, but step one? Definitely doable! Especially considering that he was conveniently close to a stall selling multiple bits and pieces of a definitely-not-magical nature, run by two clearly totally-not-magic-users. True, he probably wouldn't have been able to tell it was a witch and a warlock if he didn't notice the magic in the equipment at the stall, but it still made him hope he was hiding his own identity as a warlock well enough. He was pretty sure he was, but just in case, he was probably gonna need to play up the 'magically ignorant normie' bit a little more when he approached them. Thankfully, it was an act he was pretty good at by now, so it wasn't too difficult for him to all but hide the quirks that might tip him off as not being Jeremy Lindall, professional normal man.

"Uh, hey!" He said with a wave as he approached the stall, trying not to sound like an awkward idiot. He was never really good at meeting new people unless Hannah introduced themselves first, an act that would leave them desperate for contact with a normal person like him within about five minutes. "Is this all like that... uh... that 'occulty' stuff? I've got a friend who keeps trying to get me into that kinda stuff, but it never really appealed to me. Still, I'm figuring buying one of these'll help me calm her down enough to not give me the silent treatment for moving away next time I see her, so yeah. What can you tell me about some of these books?"
I'll try to post again either tonight or tomorrow.
