SANGUINE EMPIRE (Dark Fantasy, Samurai/Wuxia setting)

@HellisFair enough, I guess that was kind of the idea. Have the mentor be mortally wounded on the battlefield. I do like the idea ofa weak but skilled character though. Ill think on it

SANGUINE EMPIRE (Dark Fantasy, Samurai/Wuxia setting)

So just a quick clarification, for the living weapons, smiths who can make it are found outside of Nanjin, albiet more rare, right? Additionally do the weapons have to incorporate part of the sacrificed person or anything? Like they dont need to have a human's body part in them. Finally, would it work as well if the person is already on their deathbed when they make the sacrifice? I was thinking of someone who's elderly mentor was struck down and their apprentice has to take up the reigns.

A scar. Hou Yi had a scar. The technicians had repaired Krista's Framewerk in time for this new battle, but the lack of time to paint the newly replaced armor plates made them stand out. Krista herself had spent the time studying what she could of the last fight, quietly trying to figure out what she could've done differently. The answer frustrated her: Don't get shot, idiot.

She pushed the thought to the back of her head during the briefing, quietly absorbing the information on the situation as it was presented. At first she thought the Deep Strike would be doable, she had practiced the maneuver in the simulator dozens of time. However the heat generated during the real deal was suffocating, and she had to strain to focus on the proper landing in her specially designed drop pod. Her werk had to be specially folded up and placed into the pod after she had climbed into the cockpit to ensure that she would land upright. Immediately upon landing she felt the extra gravity, her body heavy in the seat, the climate control working quickly to bring the cockpit back to a more comfortable temperature. And that wasn't even accounting for how much heavier Hou Yi felt. For a moment she worried that she shell wouldn't open but with a series of concussive blasts, the panels fell away to let her stand up.

Immediately she saw several targets within range, all set against the backdrop of a ruined world. Just like her home. She took a deep breath to try and steady her voice and opened the comms channel. "This is the Hou Yi, I landed safely.". Stepping clear of the drop pod, she saw the fight had already started, with Paladin firing upon a pair of Cruxi targets. She decided to assist Paladin, adding her own fire into the mix to help ensure target destruction.

Oh neat I can dig this. I need to do some quick research since I'm not too familiar with the non-movie stuff outside of the Battlefront 2 game. I was thinking of making a rifleman. We don't need to strictly adhere to the roles you suggested though, do we? You do get final say in everything though.

Getting to Japan with all her gear had been difficult, but it was worth it for the payday involved. The well paying jobs in Rio had all but dried up anyway. Either way, it was nice to be part of a crew again. Otsana took her eyes off the road to look at her phone, the map showing exactly where they needed to go. "A few clicks down this road, about 15 Minutes until we reach the MAVERICK checkpoint," she shouted back. SHe briefly caught sight of a duo in heavy armor, one of them even touching down with what looked to be a jetpack."Sweet, looks like we've got some heavy competition around here."

They didn't slow down as they passed the two on foot, too busy pulling ahead of the Jonas. Following her phone's instructions, she led them down the unpopulated streets, swerving around the occasional robot left in the road. "Jeez, someone's head is going to roll once we track down the source of the bots." Soon enough they approached the first checkpoint, slowing down to a stop.

A masked soldier with MAVERICK's logo on his helmet took one look at them and simply asked, "You here for the job?"

Otsana flashed him a smile. "Of course. Got three of us here," she motioned back to the truck, "ready to do our bit."

To soldier shrugged and just waved them through, pointing them towards a mall parking lot. "You can park over there. Head to the hot springs for more information."

Otsana nodded and gave him a two finger salute. "Thanks." As they headed over to the lot, she felt a few drops of rain his her head, making her ears flick. "Ah damnit." She looked up, another drop hitting her goggles. "Guess I'll need the tarp."

Margot watched the unfortunate opponent in blue get up from their ring out. The winner's style was clearly self taught, which was pretty unusual for a weapons user. "What a ridiculous sword, but it works for him." Margot had watched the fight from under one of upper levels, a hot can of coffee from one of the numerous vending machines in hand. Scanning the crowd some more, she spotted a good mix of humans and mythics including Fafnir, her opponent from Rio. "Oh good, he got out alive." She smirked and sipped some more of the sweet coffee down.

Scanning the rest of the crowd, she of course spotted the many many MAVERICK agents, some of them even in plain clothes, ready to nip any trouble off at the bud. She didn't need her mask to be able to spot their hidden weaponry, not that they really needed to hide them in this crowd. Also noteworthy was the sheer number of mythics in the crowd. Beyond the aforementioned dragon knight, she spotted another more blatantly draconic creature, and what appeared to be a fairy. "I better go say hello to Fafnir. See how he's holding up." Moments before she turned towards the stairs, she heard the telltale 'drip drip' of water falling on her hat, clouds forming overhead. Her mask chimed in with a weather alert from the JMA. "Hrm, that's odd. They're usually better about this." Even so, she headed downstairs to wards the rest of the crowd as they roared with the announcement of the next match.

<Snipped quote by redbaron1234>

He's pretty tanky for sure, but even body armor has its limits. Shock from getting hit, dust and sand, gas, or electricity. Really, the only type of damage he is heavily resistant against is the kinetic kind. On top of that, his attack set is exclusively hand-to-hand, lacking any ranged moves. Also, some of those attacks may not even have any effect on non-humanoid opponents. To me, this seems like a good enough reason to up his armor. However, you are a gm, so if you really want me to lower his armor I will.

@Roughdragon1

Yes, thank you, please do that. It would put mind at ease.

⦋ 40's || USA || Male ⦌

APPEARANCE & PERSONALITY

---

APPEARANCE

Jamie dresses with a distinctively Contemporary Western flair, a holdover from his days with the Texas Rangers. Most notably, he is almost never without a cowboy hat of some sort, and even his formal wear is evocative of Westerns, with fancy jeans, bolo ties, and cowboy boots. Typically he wears dark blue jeans and a grey western suit jacket over a lavender dress shirt. He keeps his whip on his hip, within easy reach, and wears a set of fingerless gloves when fighting.

PERSONALITY TRAITS

- Polite
- Efficient
- Professional
- Amicable
- Dismissive of 'amateurs'
- Self Driven

BACKSTORY & MOTIVATION

Joining the Marines as soon as he could, Jamie graduated with honors from Annapolis and achieved the rank of Sergeant before retiring from the Corps. From there he joined the Texas Rangers, where he became known for bring able to bring some of the roughest ki-using criminals around to custody while building an airtight case against them. Eventually he was approached by MAVERICK and, with the approval of the Ranger Chief, he was allowed to join the ranks of the international law enforcement organization.

FIGHTING STYLE & ABILITIES

---

FIGHTING STYLE

Jamie's fighting style is very grappling centric. Steeped in a police combat mentality, he uses his strength and skill to grapple opponents before subduing them with a flurry of strikes. To this end, he uses a whip to help restrain and control his targets, controlling them as he moves in like a bulldog. Beyond the typical ki augmentations of strength, speed, and endurance; Jamie specializes in generating electricity for his attacks.

SPECIAL MOVES & TECHNIQUES

■ Cattle Prod:

- A passive effect, Jamie electrifies his fists and feet, making his grappling and strikes all the more painful

■ Entangle:

- The basis of most of Jami's other techniques. It simply entails lashing out and using their whip to entangle their opponent in an effort to gain control of their movement.

■ Rope a Dope:

- The simplest of follow ups to Entangle, Jamie pulls the opponent in, keeping them off balance and potentially into range for further grappling or a simple sucker punch.

■ Sidewinder:

- The Opposite of Rope-a-Dope, Jamie leaps into the air and pulls himself in, using their weight and momentum for a powerful blow.

■ Snake Bite:

- Jamie's main ranged attack, they simply concentrate their ki on the tip of their lasso and lash it out. Between the bright arcs created by his electrical Ki and the loud snap of the whip, it can disorient his target even if it misses.

■ Grab the Ring:

- Jamie is proficient at grabbing and flinging objects with his whip. It gives him some defense against ranged projectiles, and can also be used to make weapons out of his surroundings

■ Burning Ring of Fire:

- Using their ki, Jamie electrifies his whip and spins it around himself. While it's difficult to maintain the coordination, it does make it very difficult for someone to approach him without risking being struck

SUPER MOVES

■ Dope on a Rope:

- Once Jamie has entangled someone, he spins them around, slamming the unfortunate target into the ground and surroundings multiple times

■ The Brand:

- Jamie uses his ki to electrify his whip while entangling a target, leaving painful burns and staggering them.

■ Highwayman's Turn:

- Jamie places a trio of rifle bullets between his fingers before punching his target. This has a threefold effect. First, the actual punch. Second, the metal cartridges channel electricity very well. Third, this also sets the rounds off at point blank range.

WEAKNESSES & LIMITS

Most of Jamie's special moves require room to swing his whip, which does telegraph what he is about to do. Furthermore, his whip has a limited range, and a sweet spot of use, meaning that Jamie is unable to hit targets outside the range of his whip and is less effective when he cannot get a full swing of his arm. Additionally, most of his hard hitting moves require setting up in the form of Entangle.

OTHER

---

- Jamie does in fact still carry a pistol, and is quite a good marksman, but due to the nature of nomads it is normally of little use in a fight.
- Jamie is fluent in Spanish and English, but makes no attempt to disguise his thick Texan accent.
