Look so we can just get this out of the way, the main thing is the wiki, both of them, just state that Impa is a name of several female members of Sheikah. Doesn't actually say they are all descended from each other. Like Impaz is heavily implied to be descended from Impa but it couldn't be the same Impa from OoT because his Impa opened up the Hidden Village to outsiders aka had control over the village to do so. It does not have to be the same family line but just one of the Sheikah of the generation that happens to be named Impa.

This about to overtake a whole page. lolz
Matter of fact, didn't Ganon kill off the rest of the Sheikah which is why Impa hid with Zelda for those years? I would think that only Impa's line would exist but since non-canon.....others survived just so ya know we can have Sheikah in the rp. lolz. Idris isn't more so a rouge but learning by exploring and would one day come back as a skilled warrior that could truly protect the Royal Family. But i can see others seeing him as a rouge.

Which is interesting, because the last character that I have in mind is a Hylian raised as a Sheikah that is seen with contempt, or a Sheikah that has gone rouge that is seen as a traitor.


Which is also interesting because the Hylian could be seen with contempt because not full blood or the Sheikah considered a traitor because its one of the last and it isn't even embracing their tradition.

The theory being that Impa is the name of every (female?) leader of the Shiekah. Not so much that the name itself is passed down, which it obviously is-- just like Zelda. It's been the name of each of Zelda's caretakers but I'm pretty sure Impa isn't the leader of the Shiekah in every one. After she became a sage in OOT, she had other responsibilities anyway so it's actually quite likely they would have elected a new leader. They probably did it after she was elected to be Zelda's nursemaid actually. It's unlikely she was both at the same time.


Its just that she can live super long from what Skyward Sword shows. But I'm not saying its the same one from then. Its the Impa from the actual game. Well the Sheikah are considered mostly extinct by Ocarina and by Wind Waker Impaz is the only remaining person with Sheikah blood. Which is why I named Idris and everyone else applying for Sheikah are saying they are the last of the race. Sheikah get pretty fucked over in LoZ and its sad cause they are so interesting. Well in A Link between Worlds, Impa is watching over Zelda. The true sad part is in every timeline, the Sheikah are either mostly extinct or completely extinct.

@Kai: Ehhh, well that certainly is a theory. As long as you understand that the original Impa isn't alive, that's fine with me. If he's going to be a descendant of such a reincarnated "Impa", however, just understand that that's one particular NPC I will likely be using later on. So even though she's closely related to Idrina, I would prefer that you not make use of her. Not without PMing me about it at least. (Like, "Hey, Idrina wants to talk to his mommy... can we collab a post?" That sort of thing.)


Actually that's not a theory. Impa has been in Skyward Sword, Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, A Link Between Worlds. The Legend of Zelda, The Adventure of Link and Ocarina of Time. I actually forgot about her in Ocarina but, I just looked it up to remember. Also in Wind Waker, she was on the a glass mural with the other sages. Not to mention she lives for thousands of years as in living in the Goddess Era and then showing up in the Sky Era in Skyward Sword as an old woman. Kakariko is even her home (and Idris's hometown) in Ocarina.

Also..Impa is the Sage of Shadow in Ocarina....meaning Idris is descended from a Sage. I didn't realize that until now. How could I forget such important things?

I knew about the changing of the chromosome, but not that it was what caused the bone development to be so different. I guess I'll switch it to two claws per arm in order to keep the six-claw "wolverine legacy" intact.


Meh you don't have to. Her and Wolverine chops dudes just the same regardless. I think rade was just informing you why she has two in the comics. Even if she was just more of a clone, she'd still can be considered a daughter. I.E. Solid Snake, LIquid Snake, and Big Boss

@Kai: Oh man. That song-- right in my old 13 year old otaku. *cue tear of nostalgic reminiscence* If you could convert that link into the same form as everyone else, however, that would be preferable.

With the personality section... I can definitely sympathize with the longing to delve into greater detail when describing your character's personality-- hoping and praying that everybody understands and adores your OC in the same way you do, but for consistency's sake and also because I would like the characters' personalities to come to light more in the IC, I'm going to have to ask that you simplify it into a simple list of adjectives. We'll get a chance to see what he's really like once the IC starts up.

Also, I'm afraid it's rather impossible for Idris to be a direct descendant from Impa since it's been hundreds of years since she was alive-- given she isn't immortal. He could still be related to her, but not so directly.

As for his skills: Shiekah Training seems suuuuper vague. Judging by your description of it, however, I don't see why you don't simply rename it "Shiekah Stealth". And with the Parkour/Balance bit-- and this is just my opinion, not something required-- I think all you really needed to title it was Parkour and the description seems unnecessarily long. I think most people know what the definition of parkour is, so all you really need to say is that he's a trained Shiekah warrior that has trained a lot in this specific Shiekah/ninja skill (or something along those lines)

With Geokinesis... Turning things into diamonds really doesn't seem like a skill a beginner should have unlocked yet. The hardening of rocks/minerals/etc. itself, I think, should be a move entirely of it's own anyway. Just saying he has control over everything earth-related on top of that seems really vague and on the brink of OP, although I do acknowledge the fact that you were obviously trying to make it so it wasn't. Start with either Earth-moving (and make sure to specify the weight/amount of earth he is able to move) or earth hardening/softening and if you're good he can gain the other ability a bit later. That's what I would highly SUGGEST for Geokinesis, but it's not at all required and totally up to you. Trying to keep my influence over character creation as light as possible here.

Oh, and make sure you number the skills also! But otherwise-- everything else is golden. Good job.


My personality.....</3 Okay.

I'm taking the idea that was shown in Skyward Sword and the upcoming Hyrule Warriors that Impa is a lineage name given to the daughters and just so happened that this descendant happened to have a son. It's not the same Impa of the past. Sorry if i confused you there.

I wasn't more so explaining parkour to people but how it goes with Idris and his training since certain people are better at different aspects of it. Also the training was more to specify that he was an agility and speed based character which leads into his stealth. :D

Oh no. He can't harden Diamonds. That's why I ended the next few parts about him literally fainting just from even attempting. Also the hardening ability only works for rocks though that wouldn't be by much. But i can drop the hardening ability. I also will drop the metal manipulation part of it cause that's..rather op for a melee fighter. lolz
Though I told I don't mind if Hawkeye stays in the history as having worked with Captain America on her team, do you mind if we just take Hawkeye out of the current mission?
I'm here so to speak. Was quite busy with life and trying to get back into my rp habits. Hopefully with the rps I have/am joining then I shall become the rp god that I once was. So don't label my character as inactive please.
