Bloodlines of Steel and Snow (An Overlord RP)

Actually on second thought. I think might keep this character in reserve, I don’t know if I can handle 3 characters at once.

Seeker

"A Boy and his Sword, looking for the Truth"

Name: Steinar Odinson
Appearance:

Origin: New World
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Character Level: 7
Alignment: 0 (Neutral)
Racial Class: N/A
Job Class:

• Explorer
• Archeologist
• Warrior
• Hexblade

Strengths and Weaknesses: Steiner has an excellent memory and knowledge of ruins and history of the land, however, he has no talent in fighting and has to relay on his sentient sword and Hexblade ability. When separated from the blade, he is basically useless in battle.
Equipment/Abilities:
Durandal:


A sentient magic sword with various abilities. It has the ability to ignite it’s blade and any person who comes in contact with gets hit with a flame curse which would continue burning the target until the curse is purified. It also has the ability to bestow sword skills when wielded and telepathy to communicate with it’s user. It may have more abilities, but they are unknown to both the weapon and the current user.

The Book of Many Things: An unfinished encyclopedia, seems to never run out of pages.

Eternal Language Comprehension: His Innate talent to understand and read any language in the world.

How a normal human would view this character: A regular albeit, bookish adventurer, with a powerful magic sword and a great knowledge of the world.

Bio/Lore:
Ever since he was young Steinar was great interested in the past, it was in his blood. His father had been a legendary adventurer and scholar who uncovered many secrets lost to time, recording it into the Book of Many Things using his talent, Eternal Language Comprehension. It was his dream to create a book containing all knowledge and had a passion for gaining knowledge, something he shared with his son, who had inherited his talent. His father had promised that he’d take him on an adventure, a promise he would never keep.

He had thought his father was invincible, but reality proven him incorrect. A powerful monster had slain his father, his comrades could only recover his life’s work the Book of Many Things, after this event he vowed to become and adventurer and finish it, but when he did, he found out that life was unfair. While he inherited his father’s talent he didn’t inherit any of his fighting prowess, he could use magic, nor did he have any talent with the blade. His peers would quickly outclass him, his dreams seem further and further away. He would shift from party to party, always ending up falling behind.

Though 2 months ago he found himself in a predicament, he was being chased by a group of skeletons, abandoned by his party and used as a decoy to for them to get away. He ran and ran with all his strength, but the undead would still be at his heels no matter what he tried, only succeed in getting himself deeper and deeper into the catacombs they had tried to raid. He ended up being trapped in a wide circular room, luckily the door that lead into the room where heavy enough to by him some time. He looked around the room hoping that there would be another way out, instead he found himself finding an altar, with the blade that would be known as Durandal resting upon, an inscription had been carved into the rectangular altar, they parts of the inscriptions had been damaged leaving holes in the writing as such he could only make out the sentence, “Make an oath to the blade, spill your blood and gain power.” With nothing to lose, he did as it said.

The consciousness within the blade known that would be as Durandal, didn’t know who made it and for what purpose, it knew that it had something to fulfill, but couldn’t recall it. It knew it was in the catacombs for a long time, but didn’t know how long or put it there. It just knew that Steinar was it’s new wielder, who gave it the name Durandal.

Steinar using the blade managed to fight his way out, the flame curse being especially effective against the undead, he made his way back to civilization, reporting the event. The party that abandoned him was black listed from the guild, though he had left out one detail, he didn’t tell him about Durandal. For, so long he faced a wall that stopped him from achieving his dream and with Durandal he could overcome it.

Bloodlines of Steel and Snow (An Overlord RP)

@BKburke You should look at Sebas’ Character Sheet, as well as D&D’s Dragonborn And Half dragons. As Overlord is based off D&D.

Bloodlines of Steel and Snow (An Overlord RP)

Yeah... I always interpreted Wild Magic as being the precursor of more modern Tier Magic, but I'm admittedly fuzzy on how that works out.

Skyrim is totally in my list of things that inspired this, if you couldn't tell. xD
I swear to Odin, I will turn into a puddle of giggles if someone makes an intelligent bear that can shout people death. #Dovahbear
I'll probably also deny that character on principle, but I will definitely laugh. ;3

@BurningDaisies

You aren’t the only one Wild Magic is probably based a combination of D&D’s Sorcery class and Dragonshouts. As for the sentient bear... beastmem are a thing.

As for the Wild Magic and Tier Magic relationship. Basically Wild Magic is the natural magic of the New World while tier Magic is was introduced and given by the Six Gods using a world item and it’s intoduction to New World actually ended up weakening Wild Magic which is part of the reason the Platinum Dragon Lord doesn’t like Players. The main difference between Wild and Tier is actually their cost. Tier Magic primarily uses up Mana while Wild is fueled by souls a.k.a EXP.

Bloodlines of Steel and Snow (An Overlord RP)

@Nerdy Reference Ok, yeah the gun being from Yggdrasil does make sense since it’s not unheard of people having those weapons, like the Blue Rose’s leader having a Yggdrasil sword. Though he would still get looks, due to the fact that the New World isn’t even at the level of technology to produce muskets.

As for it being an equalizer it would probably bypass a player’s first defense of ignoring weaker magic weapons, but the second defense of negating any attack from people level 60 and under is still going to be in effect.

Though Wild Magic and weapons enchanted by it can bypass both defenses.

@BurningDaisies Also, I found the whole premise to be kinda funny since Wild Magic is unique to dragons, meaning there had to be a group of humans who went around clucking dragons and everyone is the GODDAMN DRAGONBORN!

Also if I remember Guns aren’t really a rarity, but simply added in a later update. Due to that fact Yggdrasil only allows for one character, means most older player just didn’t use it. Though I’m pretty sure the reason we don’t see too many guns is that the writer didn’t want to give too many people guns, since it would ruin fantasy vibe and only gave it to CZ, because it fit the character.

Sword Sister (Still need a connection.)

Name: Asuka Katsuragi
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Bio:
Life is not fair and to Asuka Katsuragi, life decided to give her the short end of the stick. When she was young, Asuka Katsuragi came down with a teriminal illness. At first it was just coughing, then nosebleeds, and then it got worse from there. Soon her home became the hospital, confined to her bed losing most of her motor functions, but one day her older sister came over and introduced her to the VMMO, Yggdrasil. They couldn’t play together in real life like they used to, so it was the next best thing. For Asuka it was closest thing to walking with her own two feet. It had became a temporary release from her current condition. Due to being bed ridden and having nothing else to do, she spent hours in game.

Trying to experience everything she could about the game, she spent hours exploring learning and polishing her skills, in her eagerness to experience everything, she ended up signing up for the warrior’s tournament, competition for the title of World Champion. The tournament had been one of the greatest test of her skills in Yggdrasil and one of her fondest memories. Everything she had learned about her class was tested, she had met new friends and rivals, and through the skin of her teeth, she had defeated all of them, she had won. She was granted the title of champion and put her name into Yggdrasil history.

She had gained so much from Yggdrasil, so of course she stayed until the end. Yggdrasil had become her home away from home and while saddened, it was only right to stay until the very end, though she still wishes that it would never end. Since even though sequel would no doubt be made, she didn’t know if she would still be alive to experience it. As such, she decided to make as much memories as she could, up until the end.

The Avatar

"Happy Go Lucky Swordswoman with a desire to live."

Name: StillAlive

Appearance

Origin: YGGDRASIL
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Character Level: 100
Alignment: 250 (Good)
Racial Class: N/A
Job Class:

• Fencer
• Swordsman
• Sword Saint
• Sword Master
• World Champion

Strengths and Weaknesses:
StillAlive is a min maxed swordsman and being a World Champion, she is one of the best warriors in the game, winning the warrior tournament to gain the title and as such posses a very high level of player skills. Her build focuses on speed and high DPS, but has low defenses and can be described as a glass cannon. Being a World Champion, she has access to World Break, which deals extremely heavy damage that can not be blocked. Making her build very strong against not only long ranged sniping, but heavy defensive builds as her sheer damage and raw speed is enough to overpower most defenses. Her build struggles against long ranged wide area bombardment as it focuses more on dodging and parrying over defense and both can’t be used against a wide ranged bombardment.

Equipment
Excalibur: The weapon gifted to her when she won the tournament. It has a Unique ability, she can cause the blade to glow blue, increasing her movement speed and attack speed. Wounds created by this blade glow, until the sword stops glowing and the ability ends. (It ends around 30 seconds after activation.) If the wounded is still within thirty feet of the sword they take massive non-elemental damage for every hit that she dealt.

Cloak of Black Feathers: A Divine Class fur cape worn around her back. In it’s normal state it provides both moderate amounts of defense against both ice and magic, but when cloak is fully active, it transforms into a pair of raven wings allowing for flight.

Selene and Helios: A Divine Class, pair of miss matched gloves. If a blade is held in Selene the weapon is charged with magic, allowing it to damage enemies that has physical resistance to the weapon like slimes. If held in Helios, the weapon gains the ability to hurt ethereal entities.

Necklace of Greater Teleportation: Asuka’s main way of countering wide area bombardment. Three times per day, it allows for the user to cast greater teleportation.

Greater Ring of Warding Illness: Protects against diseases and toxins.

Abilities
World Break: The ultimate skill of the World Champion Class, a massively powerful attack that ignores defense and the big brother of the tenth tier spell, Reality Slash. It is her trump card and while very powerful it can only be used three times per day. As the name would imply the World Break literally does break the world, as it cuts a hole in the fabric of space and time, as such the distance of the target does not matter.

High Speed Movement: The Warrior’s version of the teleport spell. Though having a lower range than a teleport, it can be used more often, making it a better close ranged alternative.

Serene Mind: A buff skill. When activated, it cures any mental based status alignments and lowers the cool down of the last skill used by 30%.

Air Rend: A basic attack skill. When activated, the user swings their weapon and sends out a shockwave cutting a target at a distance. Meant for midrange combat, the shockwave dissipates and weakens over distance.

Thousand Slashes: An attack skill allowing the user unleash a barrage of slashes at speeds that make it seems like the user only attacked once and excellent skill for AOE.

How a normal human would view this character: While a very powerful Swordswoman, at first sight most would see her as a Noble Girl playing dress up as an adventurer. As a player she would have very high quality equipment and appearance, as such most would come to that conclusion of a noble girl or a princess, Which isn’t helped by her cheerful personality and young appearance. Though, next to sister she would be seen as more as a Squire, which isn’t much better. However, if she were to unleash a World Break in the sight of other humans in this world, the residents due to their connection with wild magic would sense just how unnatural the feat was, as the World Break is literally cutting a hole in spacetime and come to view her as unnerving and dangerous.

Shield Sister (Same as above)

Name: Miyuki Katsuragi
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Bio:
Miyuki had to live with the after effects of her sister’s illness. When they were young they both would run around playing in the open grass, unlike other families they had a pretty close relationship, though when she came down with her illness things had change in their home. Her mother and father rarely came home anymore. They were both too busy trying to make money in order to pay for Askua’s hospital bills. During this time she had felt angry, she thought that she resented her sister, but one day when her sister’s condition suddenly got worse, she realized what her true feeling was. She was actually afraid, afraid of the thought that her sister would be taken by a force she couldn’t fight and angry at the world for putting their family through this. She decided then to grow up and try and fight against it. Even if she couldn’t do anything she would at least delay until someone else could.

After that, Miyuki decided to be a doctor and an older sibling. She spent most of her time hitting the books or visiting the hospital. Though one day when she visited, Asuka was asleep she muttered a wish in her sleep. To walk again, to feel the grass under her feet. She didn’t really know how to grant her wish, however, a friend recommended Yggdrasil to her. After an hour of playing she had her answer. She introduced her to Yggdrasil and together they went on many adventures. Slain many monsters, found many treasures, and uncovered many secrets. They had been able to almost forget real life and Miyuki cheered on her sister in the tournament as she won.

Yggdrasil was a distraction, but it had brought both of them temporary happiness. It was silly, but she was thankful to the game and had to see it through to the end. Though as she looked over at the clock counting down, she was reminded that time was still moving and the end was getting closer. At that time, she wished that the clock would stop and their problems would be spirited away.

Connection to <insert name here>:
Detail how your character is connected to at least one other character that you don't control, who participates in this RP. Were they friends in real life? Rivals? Were they teleworkers for the same soul-crushing corporate employer? Did one cheat on the other's brother/sister/cousin? How/Why do they know each other?
Work this out amongst yourselves.

"Stern Shield Bearer with a desire to protect."

Name:Okuni

Appearance

Origin: YGGDRASIL
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Character Level: 100
Alignment: 500 (Extremely Good)
Racial Class: N/A
Job Class:

• Shield Bearer
• Cleric
• Paladin
• Guardian
• Ajax

Strengths and Weaknesses: She is an very optimized tank that can protect against most attacks and thanks to having cleric classes, she has both magic resistance and is even more capability as a tank due to being able to heal her self and can act as a strong support type character, with the benefit having a boost when fighting against the undead but due to being a tank her speed is rather low, causing her to be vulnerable to Rouges and Rangers, as they can run circles around her.
Equipment:
Rhongomiant: A Divine Class lance when active allows the user to designate up to 5 enemies and 5 allies and fire a beam for each target which will seek them out. If an ally gets hit they get healed, but if an enemy gets hit they take moderate to severe holy damage.

Avalon:



Avalon is a Divine class shield that can take a spell that makes contact with it and then absorb it, storing it and allowing the user to cast the stored up spell. Avalon can store up to three spells at a time. Though due to being cast rather than reflected the magic is scaled to her stats rather than where it came from.

Armor of Rebirth: An Armor that converts part of the damage taken into MP allow her to fuel her Divine Magic.

Shooting Star: Rare Cash Shop item, grants wishes.

Abilities:
Divine Magic: She is a follow of Eir, the Goddess of medicine. As such, her support based Divine Magic gains a boost, while damage based Divine Magic weakens when cast by her.

Guardian’s Duty: This skill allows her to designate an ally as the target and when activated allows her to teleport to the designated ally.

Immovable: A skill that makes her, well immovable. It also increases defense while active.

Unshakable Will: A passive skill that resist any negative mental based status aliments.

Achilles’ Armor: Her trump card, can only be used once per day and when used, the target gains twenty seconds of complete invincibility.

Wall of Obsidian: When active, it become a buff to the allies around her allowing it to negate one attack.

Grand Fortesss Wall: Creates a large dome shaped barrier with her at the center.

Indomitable spirit: Once per day allows her to negate an attack that would kill her and instead reduces her hp to 1.

How a normal human would view this character: She would be seen as a Noble Knight of an Holy order. Someone the masses can respect and rely upon, someone to rally behind. Though to non human and non holy beings she would be seen as dangerous especially to the undead and would automatically be marked as an enemy. To Holy beings like angels, they would see her as an ally or an equal, serving the same higher being.

Editing notes: Ok, I had to edit Miyuki’s CS a bit, since I made a couple of mistakes.

1. I changed the class Aegis to Ajax, since I forgotten that Aegis is already a skill.

2. I changed the alignment from 100 to 500. Originally I wanted her alignment to actually reflect the character, but then I remembered that alignment to a Player Character is really just a stat and since she is playing a Human Paladin, there is absolutely no reason why that shouldn’t be maxed out.

Yugioh mystery dungeon-esk

@Taevith Ok, I know you’re new here, so I’ll give you a few pointers.

First and foremost, you’re going to need a plot hook. Something to tell us what’s going on with the story and the setting. Not many people know that Yuigoh even has a lore and even then we still have no idea how to fit our characters into the setting. Is this the Duel Terminal World, The Spirit World, The Shadow Realm? We need at least a bit of context.

Secondly, you should lower the restrictions a bit, now I’m not saying let people be Exodia or something, but at least get rid of the Level 4 rule, as it basically cuts off cards that don’t have lower level forms like X-saber Gottems. You shouldn’t be restricting character creation unless you have a good in story reason for it.

Lastly, at least have a set of rules and Character sheet, it helps people know what you’re looking for and helps them decide if it’s to their tastes.

Overlord RP - Bloodlines of Steel and Snow

I’ll be interested, I can also be the Lore Nazi, since I have read most of the Light novel with the exception of the very newest volumes.

The Hunters Club

”Doesn’t even have the common decency to lend anyone money for public transport.”

Akira criticized the president, though that didn’t mean much come from him, whose usual shtick was taking people’s money for public transport and taking a motorcycle... though how he knew how to ride a motorcycle he would usually answer with screw the police. Though speaking of figuratively screwing the police he had to go to Yume park... Now he had no idea where that was, but he knew his parks, mostly from trashing them and loitering around, but he knew his parks. He was pretty sure he could just find it on just relying on his gut feeling.

”Well I better take the other’s cues and get out of here.”

The delinquent crumbled the paper into a red white ball and threw it into the recycling bin with an upper hand throw, though it came out more of a baseball pitch becoming a white blur as soon as it left his hands and in a split second and crashing into the bin causing it to spin around on it’s rim, before settling down. Without wasting any time he walked over to the windows with big thumping steps, before sliding back the windows... And then jumping out.

Akira landed with a loud thud and sent a cloud of dust fly from his feet sent from the impact. Akira brushed himself off, without a care in the world and then proceeded to walk off into a random direction.

My Hero Academia: The Next Generation

Noru Nanbu

---

”...”

There was moments of awkward silence... with only the sounds of their footsteps rang out

”So If a villain attacks are you going to not fight, because you don’t want to hurt anyone? Will you let people get hurt, due to not wanting to fight? This is a school for heroes, everyone knows that heroes have to hurt people and get hurt to help others. If you hold back you will be insulting me, Charles, Heroes, and your own dreams.”

What Noru gave was not soft word of encouragement, but the cold hard truth. Noru looked at Koharu with a hard determination. The entertainer Noru was no longer there. What there was the child chasing a dream with everything he had.

”So, don’t you dare go at it Half Assed, because everyone here isn’t going to give you the mercy. Fight to win.”

Once again they walked in silence... until.

”We’re here.”

The Hunters Club

”Alright, that was a good waste of a basketball. You have me convinced. I’ll join yer gang.

Akira winched a bit at the smell of burning rubber and the after effects of shooting lightning in doors. His ears were still ringing after the roar of thunder that followed even with the lightning bolt being rather small compared natural lightning, Akira still picked his ears in irritation, he always had better senses than his peers and was often compared to a blood hound.

”Also could you given us a warning to cover our ears before going all Chidori on our asses, I’ll think I might have gone deaf after that, so thanks for that ya damn Electric Eel.”

Akira was obviously using hyperbole as he was still able to get the basics of what he president was saying, Akira got up and walked over to the table of talismans he quickly found his as most were already taken and used, by the other members. Akira turned his talisman around slightly curious at the supernatural explaination of his strength.

Akira Yamamoto, bloodline of the Oni-

Akira stopped reading after the word Oni, since that’s all he needed to know. That and he didn’t like reading. Akira mimicked the other members of the club or at least tried to, as he attempted to poke his finger with the needle, he would find that the needle didn’t pierce deep enough for it to draw blood and as he tried to put more force into the needle, the needle would bend thirty degrees instead of piercing his skin.

”Ah, screw it.”

The delinquent would put his thumb in his mouth, right under his sharp canine before biting down on it and drawing a stream of blood before drawing a red line over the talisman and putting it near his chest like president electric eel said. Akira closed his eyes and he could feel something from the talisman flow into him, but it felt a bit half hearted and a bit weak, probably because he already ‘Scratched the Surface’ It flowed into his veins and through his blood making it’s way around his circulatory system, until it reached his heart in which the talisman’s power would suddenly stop, as if it hit a wall at 80 miles per hour dispersing into eight directions and eight pieces.

”Eh, was that supposed to- Ah, whatever. So, want me to follow everyone else’s example and do an demonstration, Electric Eel President?

Of course it wasn’t really that difficult to guess what Akira’s power was, he was an Oni or at least had the bloodline of one. Even without his unnatural abilities he basically had since birth, it wasn’t to hard to guess that he was basically what people would call a brick, he could hit someone really hard. Since Oni’s are mostly known for their strength. Akira took a tissue and rubbed away the blood from his thumb, which had stopped bleeding some time ago.
