Granblue Fantasy: Rhapsody in Red

Skathi

Appearance:

Skathi

Name: Skathi

Gender: Female

Element: Dark

Race: Erune

Age: unknown

Dream: Her main desire is to go home, However, she does want to prove her abilities as an archer.

Home: Galbaldia an island known for its deserts and hot weather. It is a rough desolate landscape that only a few can truly survive or call it home. Known for its large amount of bandits and monsters people make a living by selling and trading goods be it weapons or monster pelts and other things. Legend has that the island is home to two primal beasts a great guardian turtle whose thoughts are always on the people and while slow does what it can for them. The other is a creature of dark power a whose power leaves destruction in its wake. While its form and that remains unknown it is often sent gifts to keep it pleased to prevent disaster.

Gimmicks: Darkness is her ally as much as it is to the primal she is contracted to. With that said she is able to control it to a great degree being able to bend it to her will to create arrows and to enhance her own attacks.

Personality:
Devote and resolute to her ideals and her dream. She is headstrong and a bit brash refusing to see otherwise till it is often proven wrong in front of her own eyes. She is devoted and once you earn her loyalty you will have a steadfast ally who will do everything in her power to help as long as you don't go against her ideals. A bit of a soft speaker who tends to speak louder with her actions than her words.

Background: Skathi grew up on a far off island abandoned and raised to be nothing more than a servant to bandits. She grew up alone and miserable however upon their deaths she was taken in by a primal. Who despite his appearance cared for her and taught her, by all means, making it more of a parental figure than she ever had. A contract between the two was formed she would become his apostle and in his, she would carry out his will act in places where he couldn't. Their lives were tied she would live as long as their contract remained intact.

Her faith in the primal beast was second to none so confident that he wouldn’t lead her astray. She followed his will and did the deeds he asked. Nothing mattered she would hunt down the targets those who slighted him or those who challenged the balance that he sought to protect. The life she dedicated to him the person the being who saved her shown her kindness and sheltered her from those wishing her harm.

Skathi who took it upon herself to protect the Primal beasts of the island attacked an unknown invader. Her rage and in a haggard state she lost control over the powers gifted to her by the primal darkness rained down dragging people into an endless abyss. Her berserk nature and the scale of the attacks caused her to faint after a long battle. Though in an odd sense she accomplished her job. Finding her in her comatose state Zweite Junta mistook her as the primal beast due to the lingering power on her body and stories that had been passed down. Though as she lays in the cell they keep her in she is starting to stir a as the primal beast urges her to wake.

Inventory:
Meteor bow (A bow of the stars): A bow she claims is able to shoot down the very stars themselves. While this is far from the truth it remains true that this bow is of exemplary make possibly one of a kind. Though how it was made is unknown it is a bow that has survived generations being passed down and used by many a person as time passed.

Silver Talons (Gauntlets of a bygone age): Silver gauntlets whose fingers end in sharp claws. A weapon of a bygone age. It helps in drawing the bowstring and clawing at an enemy.

Gold coin (A proof contract): A golden coin was given to her by a primal beast it marks their contract together and with it is proof of their connection. The coin is often used as a decision maker by Skathi by flipping the coin trusting the primal beast would guide her in the right direction.

@Suku

Very nice, I like the idea of primals granting power to people, makes it easier to tie them more into the islands, and the story overall as opposed to "here have a random boss fight". I won't pick on mistakes as I said, so it all looks pretty good.
I'm gonna make her cry

Pop her on over to the character tab!

Ran into writer's block a few times during the writing process, but here's my character:

Wandering Flame, Homura

Appearance

Name: Homura

Gender: Female

Age: 26

Race: Draph

Element: Fire

Dream: "My dream? To fight the strongest warrior the skies have ever known. Living, dead...it doesn't matter."

Home: Homura is from a small, remote island in the easternmost skies of the world. The island's aesthetic and culture is very similar, if not identical to, those of Japan, especially the feudal era. In its native language, the island's name means "Shrike".

Gimmicks: Homura is an adept and fierce sword fighter who specializes in settling scuffles with a single blindingly fast slash; a fighting style known as "iaijutsu". The first strike means everything. If the fight doesn't immediately end after Homura's first slash, she switches her tactics to confusing the opponent with swift movements, waiting for an opportunity to present itself where she can finish the battle with a few more strokes of her blade.

Personality: Homura is a lone wolf, through and through. She's usually quite aloof, not one to strike up a conversation out of the blue because of friendly intentions. As a result, she often keeps her true thoughts and feelings to herself, only revealing them when she knows the other person or people in the conversation are trustworthy. Given the opportunity to be by herself, however, and she is constantly focused on one thing: Becoming stronger. Whether it be to protect those she cares for or surpass the beliefs and expectations of her peers and elders, Homura constantly works herself to the bone to become as strong as she can be. Some even say that the support of those she can truly consider friends motivates her to work even harder.

Background: Homura was born as the youngest sibling of four to a pair of veteran warriors for parents. As a result, she was always being pushed to overcome her older brothers and sister, which began developing a bit of an inferiority complex inside of her psyche. Every day, she would train with her peers and superiors, with the majority of fights ending in losses for Homura, at least for a while. Eventually, though she didn't quite reach the same caliber as her older siblings, she decided that she had reached a point where any other fighters on her island home weren't on the same level as her or above, and set out to sail across the skies as a wanderer, searching for stronger and stronger opponents to temper her strength as a warrior.

Homura's penchant for actively seeking out powerful foes and challenging them to duels has, on multiple occasions, resulted in bad situations for her. Most recently, a public, large-scale scuffle that involved multiple people resulted in Homura being thrown into Ziggurat, where she now waits, planning her escape.

Inventory: Homura's inventory consists of Ichigekimaru, her prized katana, a few bottles of sake (AKA rice wine), and her "armor", traditional clothing from her island that discards defense in favor of maneuverability.

Everything's A-OK, I hope?

@GarlandDaHero

Everything's perfect for her. She'll get her chance to fight the strong, given that most of the 13 Heads are swole af. Gives plenty of room for her to fight things to improve. Totally not planning a Primal Swordsman now to duel her

Go ahead and move her over to the Characters tab!

Is it okay if i get my character up tomorrow?

@Hyyde322

Of course. I'm not looking to pressure anybody. Take ypur time, man.

DOITDOITDOITDOITDOITDOIT!

Granblue Fantasy: Rhapsody in Red

Woo. I was right for once. This means I've exceeded your abilities as GM, and now I can execute you and assume control of the RP, right @The Irish Tree ?

@Walulululuigi

IF I CAN'T RUN IT, NOBODY CAN!

Granblue Fantasy: Rhapsody in Red

Heyo @The Irish Tree. Mind if I take the last remaining fire slot in order to burn the infidels I mean do whatever helpful deeds pyromancers are opt to do?

@Guess Who

Sure thing pal.

So... where're all the places we can live in? Is there a map I should know about, by chance?

@AdmrlStalfos19

You make up the island that you're from, basically. I don't actually have a list made up of 300 islands. I ain't got the patience for that, and I have a feeling a gigantic list of 300 islands with fleshed out backstories in a list would intimidate people, as well as make them question whether I'm actually a living being or not.

So, yeah, just come up with something for your home island.

Granblue Fantasy: Rhapsody in Red

Once we get about 4 people's character sheets, we should be good to start. Let me know if you guys need any help with setting details or things you just aren't sure about!

Granblue Fantasy: Rhapsody in Red

@Walulululuigi Please wait to post your character in the CHAR tab, that's more meant for completed characters that have been approved. Solid start so far though.

@GarlandDaHero More meant to not contradict it. Like, don't be Light Element and be causing earthquakes and ice missles to get thrown around somehow. Of course, some things aren't dependent on element at all, like using a melee weapon or ranged weapon, piloting a ship, etc.

OOC is up!

Also Waluigi, Fire beats Wind because Fire eats Oxygen, which in fantasy world means it eats that air like I eat my own words.
