Bleach - Legends

I stopped watching the anime at the Fake Karakura Town bit, and didn't start reading the manga until Deicide, then ignored the Fullbring stuff. I have a few knowledge holes. XD

It's one of the hardest parts!

I think it's the outright hardest.

I am currently stuck on naming this sword. Stupid thing. >:T

You go on about someone else stealing your idea, then you nearly do the exact same thing to me. :P

You know who was a normal person in a group full of superpowered people?Batman.And there have been some stories where he outwits those superpowered people and even beats them in battle.So just because your character seems normal compared to, say, a few high-powered characters, doesn't mean he's outmatched in anyway.

... except he's not a fabulously wealthy genius, and is in fact a guy with a sword. The reasons Batman can keep up do not apply to all characters.

Stop giving terrible advice.

On second thoughts, the pixie would be a bit awkward to play and get involved in anything, so...

---

Name: Kobayashi Hitomi

Age: 93

Gender: Female

Race: Dark Elf

Appearance: A picture Rin drew for me! Hitomi, however, differs from the picture in one crucial way: she actually has a bust, and a sizeable one at that. Despite considerable exercise and training, she still sticks to the same sort of cooking as her mother--extremely heavy in fat, grease, and deep-fried everything.
She's six feet tall exactly--Dark Elves, despite their underground preferences, aren't that small.

Profession: Paladin of Mayon

Personality: Hitomi is shy and reclusive, preferring to just get a job over and done with rather than have to talk to any of the people she happens to be helping out--in fact, she has developed a somewhat poor habit of sending those she's assigned to help a letter, then getting the bloody stuff over and done with whilst they sleep, thus making it easier for her to work and avoiding the awkward social contact. When she does need to socialise, the dark elf has enough trouble contending with having a lisp, without even factoring in the fact that she outright cannot handle people and would much rather play with children and build block castles, or look after her swords.

Equipment/Weapons: The dual swords whose--translated--names are Life and Death. Life is your normal katana in form and function, though enchanted to give it an unnaturally sharp edge and durability. Death, however, is named not for its effect but its ability to cut through the ephemeral--its function is normally defensive, as this wakizashi can cut through magic to utterly destroy weaker spells and ablate those stronger. However, it is much better against the undead than its bigger twin; it cuts through anything from ghosts to vampires ignoring any protections or armour they might have.

Abilities: Hitomi is a master of wielding two weapons, with her style placing a major emphasis on using one of the blades to not get cut to ribbons, and dodging when a sword cannot defend her. Normally, it would be Death that she uses to parry and block, though she is ambidextrous and skilled enough that it isn't a huge impediment to change which sword that she uses to block when Life is more use as protection than offence.

Brief Backstory: Nearly a century ago, Hitomi was born beneath Akitsushima, in the normal dark elven settlement--a subterranean ranch. Unusually enough, her home was close to the surface, as beef-rearing techniques create a peculiarly delicious cut of meat that was assessed sufficiently delicious enough that hanging around within easy reach of the surface was deemed an acceptable risk and sacrifice. For ten years, Hitomi learned how to rear cattle and other, more exotic, beasts, before finding her true calling as a paladin; even in Akitsushima, dark elves generally refuse to relinquish their beliefs, though many choose to venerate Tsubasa as the semi-divine intermediary between them and Mayon.

Due to its greater facilities, she has found herself in Karstberg over the years, and thus serves in its temple, though she misses the beef of home.

The thing is, whilst he can keep up with humans, as could Connor, many characters are superhuman, thus a guy whose abilities are 'not die' and 'good swordsmanship, but limited power' would mostly serve to be chewed on by monsters. Whilst amusing, probably not your intent for him.

Character Crossover Crisis City

Er... the Joker is, in straight combat, bottom-tier. He's a guy with some basic hand to hand ability, and poison. The more toned-down versions of Superman (definitely not the Silver Age version) would probably not be amiss in this thread, and the Joker stands literally no chance against that. I think you're either overestimating normal people in a straight fight, or underestimating everyone else.

Character Crossover Crisis City

He has "good" (and I use the term loosely, since he's still restricted to the physically possible and finite human strength) swordsmanship, a completely mundane sword, and is hard to kill. This is not a lot to work with, at all, and in scenarios where his abilities might come in useful, they'd probably just result in amusing amounts of injuries on his person lest other characters trivialise it.

You're talking in the signups again.

I personally think Connor is severely underpowered for something like this, essentially liable to serve as a chewtoy, but that doesn't impact on acceptability.
