@Lunarlors34Where are the guild CS's again, as I don't quite remember this member.

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

@Prince of SeraphsYep, main inspiration really. Was originally going to have it where he has this form of grand tree magic that was all about caging people(especially dragon slayers or dragon-related beings) in gnarled, nasty looking roots, but then I decided to focus more on the death aspect.

@Natsume HonnajiGotcha, should be interesting to see how he reacts and what he comes up with.

@Prince of SeraphsTrue, but I was thinking more along the lines of what about Nidhogg's involvement specifically made for a better situation to show off such skills.

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

@Natsume HonnajiPerfect Strategy #1: Let the crazy guy do all the work, get all the credit.

Moving on to the actual comment, how does Nidhogg's involvement create a chance for you to show off Robin's smarts and skill at Strategizing?

Character Sheet

Quote:
Name: Diante Nickelson
Nickname: Dian
Birthdate:
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Relationship Status: Single
Family: He has his 8-year-old half sister, Sara Michone, that he's raising by himself and a father that ran out on his family before he was born. His mother, Sara, committed suicide two years after the filming of Nowhere, and he has no other living relatives that he knows off.
Occupation: He works as a Librarian in the Thornhill Public Library.
In Depth Appearance: Diante is about 6'2, with a lean figure that he keeps in shape by doing some daily exercises every morning. He's got a scar under his right eye that he doesn't like to tell people how he got it. Some people have developed theories and such, but the truth is that he got it when he was a kid after he tried to slide down the stairs in a laundry basket. His eyes are a warm chocolate brown, but they have a few flecks of golden hazel as well, though they're only visible if in the right light, causing a weird multi-color effect along the fringes of his irises. He usually wears a button-up shirt, either black or some kind of plaid patterning, with blue jeans and some sneakers. During the colder months, he wears a thick woolen winter jacket over it, which makes him look a bit older and more mature than most would think, especially with the way he asks.

At home, he spends his free-time dressed in a white tank-top and jeans, either playing video games or keeping his sister entertained. He has a few dress clothes for when ever he needs to go to a formal event, but no real date or party clothes.
Biography:
Then: Diante grew up in a relative normal home, with just him and his mother doing their best to eek out a living. Getting involved in Nowhere was his mom's idea, as she saw it as an opportunity for him to go out and make some friends. Diante was the quiet, bookworm type not really shy or adverse to company, but definitly more at home by himself than with others. Being apart of Nowhere changed that, though, as he began to hang out with the other teens, actually form some relations with people, even take a few risks and do some stupid things, to actually act his age normal. However, the moments when you got to see this side of Diante Nickelson were few and far between. Most times when he appeared on the show, it was when he was asked to give his opinion about a particular event or another member of the group.

He was a observant person, a people watcher by heart with his heart set on becoming a psychiatrist so that he could help people with the problems that they couldn't fix themselves. As such, he always had some interesting and informed insights to give from time to time, even played the role of the group shrink from time to time. If you ever needed some to vent to about anything, Diante was the guy for it.

Between: After Nowhere, Diante went to college, working to get his Masters degree while dealing with his sudden newfound fame(which was a tad overwhelming for the guy who preffered to keep on the down low) and his mother had found herself a boyfriend as well. He made her happy and during the talks he had with her over skype, she seemed like she was positively glowing. Soon after, Diante would find out that he would have a baby sister soon, and that his mother was planning on marrying the guy, something that he wasn't sure about, but he didn't voice his opinions.

Sadly, the happy days were not to last. His mom's boyfriend got into a bad car crash about a month before the baby was going to be born. This devastated her, throwing the woman into a deep depression that was broken only by fits of rage. Diante came to help as best he could, but his mother was just so . . . hollow, like all of the life and love he'd known her to have had been taken from her. So much, it seemed, that she passed away soon after giving birth, leaving Diante with a choice. Continue on with his chosen path, or drop everything, for his newborn sister. In his mind, it wasn't a choice at all, and he quickly dropped out of college and moved back to Thornhill as a young 20 year-old with a young child, no idea what to do, and only the money he'd saved from doing a few Nowhere-related events such as convention appearances and such. But he didn't say a word of complaint.

One thing that was talked about, however, was how there was no funeral for his mother, only having her remains cremated and storing them in a urn. When questioned about this, he simply said that there was no point in holding a funeral, as anyone who would bother to attend was dead or estranged. When he was asked about how he was dealing with his mother's death, he responded with a strange smile and sad that he was fine, It had been a shock, but with having to are for his sister, he didn't have time to be sad.

Now: At present, Diante is living a fine life as a Librarian, spending his days at work and nights with his young sister, all the while doing his best to keep in touch with others. He never really gives himself a break or takes a day to himself. He's always busy, always moving, never really taking a single moment for himself. When asked or question about the topic of his mother, or the subject of his distinct avoidance of taking a day off to simply relax by himself, he will work to avoid the question, growing more and more erratic and upset the more someone presses the issue.

Centric Episode/s: First Time's the Charm: Diante is forced by his friends to take a rest in his life, and is set-up on a date(perhaps with one of the other cast members). This would actually be his first time ever on a date, and as such, nervousness abounds.

Took ya long enough:A man claiming to be Diante's father comes to see him. Diante takes it . . . rather badly.

Theme: Suggestions?
Relationships: Your character opinions other characters to go here, will be discussed in the OOC or via PM with the characters owner)
Extra: Praises the hairstyling guides on youtube for teaching him how to do his sister's hair, as he was well and truly lost.

An avid reader of every type of book out there, though he has a particular interest in Fantasy.

He can knit and sew, and rather well at that.

A major adovocate for getting kids to read more and text less.

He's never gotten a tablet or any kind of device for his sister. as he wishes to encourage communication rather than shutting her up with T.V or other technological distractions

He's fiercely protective over Sara

Made a post, hope it was somewhat enjoyable to read. Might be trying to put up an Argus post in my next post, just to give an idea of what he's doing and keep the character fresh in my mind.

Nidhogg

"Hmmmm. . . true, that was a rather silly question, in hindsight." Nidhogg noted, "You've only barely met me, seen only a fraction of who I am, so why would I ask you such a question? Truthfully, I''m bored and tend to do and say odd things when I'm bored. Nothing interesting seems to be happening right-we should probably duck right now." Nidhogg stopped in the middle of talking for a second, before he grabbed Jasmine by the shirt and quickly pulled her down, just as a person flew over their heads, smacking rather savagely against a nearby building, before falling to the ground, completely still. Blinking, Nidhogg stared at the body for a second, only for his crimson eyes to suddenly seem to light up with excitement as he turned around to look at the source of the thrown person. He was faced with a shadowy monster that seemed to be savagely assaulting citizens and guards alike with seemingly no care for who it attacks. The sight brought a very wide smile to his face as he snapped his fingers, causing the corpse behind him to suddenly jump up to attention, the head hanging limply as the body moved stiffly over to his side, silent and unnatural in it's movements and general look.

"Quite right, boy, but I say we don't rush the situation. While I doubt the beast is that strong, no need to kill it immediately. Let's just keep the damage to a minimum and play with a bit. Have our own little match outside of the stadium, give the people a show." Nidhogg addressed the young man who was calling out the beast, though he didn't know why the man bothered, as it didn't really look like a creature capable of conversation. Stupid decision, tactically, if you wanted to kill the creature as soon as possible, but most light guild mages were dumb like that. They just don't really think about these kind of things, do they? "So, Jasmine, take a step back or two, wouldn't want to get blood on your clothes. That being said, I really don't want it in my hair either, do you know how much of a pain it is to get blood out of a braid this thick? It's maddening, I tell you, maddening." As Nidhogg turned to talk to Jasmine, seemingly not paying attention to the fight anymore, the corpse by his side suddenly twitched and spasmed before it's chest burst open in a spray of crimson, followed by flash of ivory as a spike of Ivory rushed forward to impale the creature. Whether it impaled the creature or not, a barrage of spikes would burst out of the bone, starting at about a foot in length, that would then seek out the creature to further impale it, while nearly missing a few bystanders, possibly nicking one or two of them, but no serious damage done. While this was going on, Nidhogg was looking over his hair, trying to see if he could spot any specks of blood in it.

"Better not be a single drop, or that thing is dying very slowly and painfully . . . that is, if it can feel pain. Do you think it can feel pain? Can it even bleed? Quite a mystery that is, but one I'm sure we'll soon find the answer to."

@Expolar

Nowhere. Somewhere. Everywhere. (Slice of Life with a twist)

Gonna toss in my interest and get to work on a character. Hopefully won't take too long.

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

@Natsume HonnajiIf you don't mind me interjecting, it's not so much looking for a fight as much as he sees a giant shadow monster attacking innocent people. So I think if you just have him run into it while it's doing it's rampage, it wouldn't be out of character for the average person to try and stop that.

Masks: A Superhero RPG

Already presented my ideas, techno path and a guy with something more fantastical, probably some form of energy/matter manipulation.
