VR Games + School? (Name WIP)

Placing some tentative interest, I'm supposed to be studying for my exams in 3 weeks but I'll see how it goes >.<

I think Scio said something about magic interfering with electronics a while back when someone wanted to make a techno-mage? Not sure if it's still going to apply or not though

If you're looking for a limitation then surely the Kitsune assimilation should have a hard limit, right? I mean, it was another person at some point, and I doubt just eating them would give you all of their powers even with magic. You could just say that the Kitsune wasn't fully assimilated so you won't have full access to its powers or something like that.

Alternatively you could say something like; Kyou didn't completely assimilate the Kitsune so her body is still partially human. Using the Kitsune's abilities or the Kitsune's magic too much will take a toll on her body as those powers weren't meant to be wielded by humans to begin with.

I probably should've asked this earlier but how soft are Kyou's hands exactly? I didn't comment on them in my last post because since she does martial arts. Generally the hands of a martial artist are harder with like calluses and stuff if you use weapons, but her martial arts were mainly focused on footwork right? So I don't think that would factor on her hands but I don't really know for certain.

@Riffus Maximus
so, this isn't exactly relevant with anything but I just found this hidden gem right here and I was going to say something like I almost wish Akasha was more of a Yandere so something like that could happen


But then I found out it's by the same guys who made this


I'm watching it right now though and it's not as good as the trailer makes it out to be

Stellar "Clive" Arkadian

"Huh? Oh..." Clive said, distracted from Kyou yet again by a feast for his eyes only. "That's some intense magic."

He saw a huge quantity of grey colored magic exploded out from the school building. There was too much of it to see specifically where it was coming from, but it collected in the sky. A moment later, the students would see the cloud splitting apart and simply forming into birds, but for Clive it was a much more beautiful transformation. The cloud itself wasn't magic, but rather a medium. During the few seconds of darkness, the magic which had exploded out had been shaped into a flock of doves, each one meticulously shaped. As the sun pierced through, the magic was released downwards all at once.

The forms of the magic birds raced towards the ground, and the cloud billowed into their shape as if racing after them. Their tails flowed like smoke, as the swooped into the crowd, and there was one for him too. He saw it happen a moment before it was going to, the magic would dissolve inches in front of his face and wash over him. He breathed deeply, and let it enter into his mind.

He wasn't sure how he felt about the message itself. While he could say that it provided a contrasting image of the beauty of the magic he had just seen, and that in reality the style of the message and the headmaster himself fit it quite nicely, he could also have just said it felt lacklustre. But the sight he saw was his, and his alone, to anyone else's eyes the level of the delivery and the message itself would've been about equal.

His vision cleared and he saw their would be caretaker.

The red-haired man gave them a arrogant smirk and spoke. "You lot can call me Varus. I'll be "taking care" of you for now."

Something strange happened though; he just passed by each one of them. "Everyone, follow me." he said in a stern voice as we began walking towards an open field outside of the school.

"Get ready for your first trial here at Four Winds. Those I deem to be unimpressive, are automatically expelled. Capiche?"

@Scio

That sounds a little troublesome. He thought.

How was he supposed to show off his vision, anyway? The most he could do was probably just tell him about it. Well, it wasn't like Clive would have any reason to lie about it so maybe it'd work out. As their instructor walked, Clive noticed a red, faintly pulsating symbol hovering over his shoulder. He doubted the position meant anything, but it was shaped like an explosion. Well, it looked a little more like just impact than explosion, but he couldn't tell for sure.

He made to follow after Varus, but as Clive's hand shifted he suddenly noticed that he was holding someone else's very warm hand.

"Oh..." Without realizing it, Kyou had been holding tightly onto his hand. He couldn't tell whether it'd been before or after the Headmaster's magic show, and realizing it now, she was probably the kind of person who didn't enjoy not being noticed, for want of a better phrase.

"Sorry..." He said tentatively, "I wasn't paying attention. I don't think that'd make up for anything but you ate all my bubblegum. Maybe I could owe you a favor?"

He hadn't let go yet, or more accurately he couldn't let go just yet. Kyou had a vice-grip on it, and she had mentioned something about martial arts in their conversation just now so that probably meant he wasn't getting out unless she let him.

Alright, how's this for edited abilities?

Beholder

Name: Beholder
Type: Enhancement
Description: Beholder is an ability which enhances Clive's eyesight in various ways. The primary hallmark of this ability is the ability to 'see' magic. When magic is being cast or has been cast recently, Clive will be able to see a trail leading from the magic to the caster. The trail takes the form of colors hanging in the air, and the trail's thickness and strength depend on how strong the spell is, and how long the spell is supposed to last for respectively. Clive's eyes are also able to see the 'signature' any individual's innate magical abilities, which his mind processes using recognizable imagery to form a representation of their ability somewhere on them or around them sort of hovering in the air.

Other features include being able to 'see' people's emotions as colors and automatically adapting his eyesight depending on the situation. For example, even though he's been wearing sunglasses for 5 years or so, he has always been seeing normally as if they weren't there.

This ability would be termed under 'enhancement' as it enhances Clive's vision to see things which normally can't be seen, but it's not simply enhancement as the awakening of this ability placed Clive's source of magic inside his eyes. This means that, A. He can't turn his ability off, and B. If he were to ever lose them, he'd probably lose his ability for magic entirely. BUT his magic is already eye-based anyway, so it would pretty pointless to have magic ability without his eyes. He wouldn't even be able to do anything. It's not certain what would happen if he lost only one eye.

That extra stuff about the source of magic stuff I could probably just remove if I had to? It just makes sense to me if it's like that

I likes the numbers, that's too bad :(

I was supposed to be asleep about an hour ago so editing my character sheet's going to have to wait

@Masaki Haruna
Kyoutopia? O.o

I'm just imagining Kyou with nine really fluffy tails. I love fluffy stuff so I'd be all over it in real life but Clive isn't like that >.<

Four Winds

@Masaki Haruna
Well, I don't think Clive would be in much of a position to do anything, and the situation did sort of resolve itself just now. Maybe it'd be best to wait for Scio to move things forward, it's probably about time for that pretty soon
