@Shadow Daedalus Thanks, man.

Alright, canary and I decided the backstory I had in mind for Raj was a little too dark for an RP like this, so instead, have the turtliest member of the turtle club:

TotallyNotTurtleBlake

"..."

Name: Lemony Leatherback
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Height/Weight: 6'1'' (185cm) in heels/151 lbs. (68.5 kg)
Species: Turtle Faunus

Personality: Lemony gives off the impression of someone living in a turtle shell if you settle for just observing her from afar, as she never seems to talk and avoids contact with most people. However this couldn't be farther from the truth. Lemony is actually very friendly and outgoing, almost a little dorky, but chooses her friends selectively and limits her social interactions outside of a small circle due to deep-seated paranoia and trust issues. She can't speak for fear of showing people her mouth, so she mostly communicates by typing on her Scroll instead, pretending to be mute rather than exposing herself as a Faunus. Her Faunus trait also impacts her diet, which consists mostly of seafood like sushi and shrimp on account of her difficulties with the mechanical aspects of digestion. Her favorite food, which she'll only eat when she's convinced no one is looking, is jellyfish, which she'll eat dried, fried, or even fresh (sometimes in a bowl of ice cream). Despite her fears, she doesn't believe all humans are bad people, just that both humans and Faunus are equally capable of committing both good and evil acts, which is a big part of why she hates the White Fang (but not the biggest). Her Faunus heritage causes her embarrassment but not shame, and she believes in the teachings the real White Fang espoused: acceptance and peaceful protest.
Biography: Born both the daughter of a sailor and a Turtle Faunus with a very interesting trait, Lemony's life has been anything but normal since day one. While she looks innocent enough on the outside, the real nightmare is on the inside, as Lemony's random Faunus trait didn't end up being something as cute as flippers or a half-formed turtle shell. No, she got this, the terror-inducing harvester maw of the otherwise innocent-looking leatherback sea turtle. As a result, she couldn't eat right, couldn't talk right, and looked just plain frightening when she opened her mouth. While she was a nice enough girl, adorable even, people pissed themselves every time she tried to talk or smile, and thus they ended up largely avoiding her. However, her father, the ship's captain, was determined to make up for all the love and attention other people wouldn't give her, and doubled-up on his dad duties, bringing his baby girl with him on every trip he made out into the deep blue. As a result she was raised a sailor, and knows life out on the ocean like the back of her hand. She even learned how to fight from her dad, becoming skilled in one on one combat defending the ship and its occupants from pirates and aquatic Grimm, which in those days were far more uncommon. However, tragedy struck without warning as the ship became embroiled in a conflict between human forces and the White Fang during an otherwise routine cruise. One of the passengers they'd chartered, a young Faunus boy with red hair, no more than six or seven years older than Lemony, was revealed to be an agent of the White Fang, a terrorist wanted for dozens of crimes all across Remnant. His name was Adam Taurus. He took the crew and her father hostage, dispatching Lemony with ease, and in the ensuing raid by Atlas soldiers to retake the boat and capture the wanted terrorist, he killed her father as part of a bid to buy time and escape, leaving Lemony, beaten, bruised, and all alone in the world. Wracked with grief, she took the only memento her father had left her, the sword which had killed him, and left, disappearing without a trace. She sailed the world aimlessly for years, a silent young girl traveling from port to port and dispatching criminals and Grimm with ruthless efficiency, like some sort of cowboy of the seas. Whether unconsciously or intentionally, she'd begun using the sword that had belonged to the young boy, now a man, imitating his style. Her mind was set on one thing, and one thing only. Find Adam Taurus. Get revenge. After years of fruitless searching, she enrolled in Beacon, hoping that as a Huntress she'd have more opportunities and resources at her disposal to track down and kill her father's murderer. And now the story begins...
Reason for becoming a Huntress: "..."

Weapon(s): Jetstream (tonfa gunblade)

• Lemony is a tonfa user, practicing the three grip method of honte-mochi (normal), gyakute-mochi (reverse), and tokushu-mochi (special) used in Okinawan martial arts. While tonfas are traditionally dual-wielded to provide a two-handed offense as well as protection for both arms, Lemony instead uses one, abnormally long tonfa, for reasons that will soon become clear. The weapon's grip possesses a rather conspicuous and unique feature, that being a trigger that makes the short end look like a gun barrel. This isn't at all far from the truth, as the weapon is mostly hollow and fitted with a rifling mechanism that ejects whatever's inside the hollow tube at explosive speeds upon firing with the trigger. And what's inside the tonfa, you might ask? A full-length katana, sharpened to a razor's edge and imbued with the power of Dust. Thus does the weapon's purpose become clear. The tonfa itself is merely a concealment for the hidden blade, which lies in wait for the chance to land a single, deadly strike before returning to its sheath. A second weapon would merely impede the process of catching the blade when it's being fired out of the barrel at such explosive speed, and should Lemony choose to fight two-handed, both the sword and the tonfa can be comfortably used without having to sheath a cumbersome third weapon. It's a weapon specialized for iaijutsu, with its functionality as a tonfa a distant second consideration.

Semblance: Red Sun

• By accelerating her own metabolism to unheard of levels, Lemony is able to build up immense heat within her body and release it as a burst of kinetic energy, either projecting it outward as a beam or using it to enhance a single strike. This manifests as a change in the color of the stripes on her coat, first heating to red, then yellow, and eventually blue. Red is too weak and blue too exhausting, so Lemony usually sticks to yellow. Additionally, if she projects the energy using her sword, then the blast of kinetic energy will also carry the same attribute of Dust as the sword, allowing her to launch elemental attacks.

Misc: Desperately wishes she could whistle.

Personality section's done and bio's almost there, but it's getting late so I'm gonna finish it in the morning. Night.

I'm waiting on Charak so I can knock out an Albert and a Ren post at the same time.

RWBY Roleplay

WIP

Name: Ragaraja "Raj" Portia
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Height/Weight: 6'1'' (185cm) in heels/183 lbs. (83kg), 151 lbs. w/o arms
Race: Spider Faunus

Personality:
Biography:
Reason for becoming a Huntress: "The White Fang didn't want me." (not really, she just thought being a Huntress would be fun)

Weapon(s): One thing Raj's Faunus biology has actually been good for is her combat effectiveness. Not only is she intelligent and dexterous, but the addition of four extra arms allows her to wield that many more weapons simultaneously. This unique fighting style incorporates long-range, mid-range and short-range attacks and a variety of weapons to help control the enemy's spacing and movements, effectively "zoning" them like Soaring Ninja in Total Annihilation V. These weapons are:

• Brahmastra: An ornate bow that fires normal, trick and Dust-tipped arrows. Specially tuned to the strength of Raj's spider arms, the bow has a high draw weight that makes it difficult for anyone else to shoot with it.
• Vajra: The diamond that cuts through illusions (disclaimer: it doesn't actually do that). Vajra is a sharp, two-headed dagger with a telescoping grip that allows it to extend into a large bladed staff. It's a rather heavy weapon despite its compact size, and carries quite a bit of heft when swung, functioning much like a bludgeon that just happens to be sharp.
• Padma: A lighter, more nimble dagger designed to look like an unopened lotus, Padma is much more useful for stabbing and jabbing than Vajra, which sacrifices some of its usefulness as a dagger to allow it to also serve as a staff.
• Ghanta: A large brass bell. Not a weapon per se, but a battle aid whose frequencies, when rung, assist in the stabilization of a person's Aura and the attainment of calm and inner peace. But watch out because she's not above bonking you on the head with it.
• CQC: Raj always keeps at least one arm free for gripping, grabbing, grappling, and self-defense. Because of her spider traits, these arms are naturally armored and can cling to seemingly flat surfaces using microscopic hairs. They also pack a piston-like punch thanks to a hydraulic pressure mechanism that allows these four extra arms to punch harder and faster than her two ordinary ones. This hydraulic action also allows her to propel herself forward for long distances at high speeds when crouching and taking off from the ground.

Semblance:

• Regeneration: Raj's Semblance is a somewhat unique self-healing ability that allows her to regrow lost or damaged tissue at an accelerated rate. While not as quick or fast-acting as other healing abilities meant to be used in the heat of battle, most of them involving the application of Dust or a person's own Aura, what sets Raj's Semblance apart is the sheer scope of wounds which it can mend. She may sacrifice one of her extra arms in a fight to gain an advantage, and while she will be temporarily inconvenienced by the loss of limb, she will not die or lose consciousness due to shock or blood loss, and her Semblance allows the entire arm to grow back in just seven days. It is not quite accurate to think of this as a conventional healing ability then; rather it is a survival mechanism that allows the sacrifice of smaller body parts to ensure a safe getaway from larger or more powerful predators. It's a rather disgusting but handy ability that's saved her life many times, but it has its limits, like all Semblances. Most notably, it cannot recover a decapitated or destroyed head, and truly severe organ damage may heal improperly with permanent side effects if the injuries are to multiple life-critical systems like the heart, liver and lungs.

Misc: Hates, hates, hates spiders (ironically).

Looks like we'll be having an all or mostly girl team like Team RWBY. Estrogen brigade hoooooooo.

Oh, want a Co-GM Position? I have a high opinion of your RPing abilities...

@Letter Bee

Thanks! I'm very honored that you'd say that.

Unfortunately, my answer is going to have to be "maybe", as I'm not entirely sure I'll be participating yet (hence why I only expressed interest instead of saying something like "Count me in!" like Indra). The RP itself has nothing to do with it of course and I'd love to participate if I can, in which case I'd be glad to accept the co-GM position, but I've got a lot of eggs in a lot of baskets right now. Other RPs are just a small facet of it, sadly. I've got a lot going on IRL in addition to any obligations I have to the other RPs I'm in, including an upcoming biopsy and a surgery in the weeks to come that are supposed to help deal with this tracheal mass that's been impairing my breathing for the past few months.

Before anyone freaks out, the surgeon is almost certain it's just a cyst and nothing sinister like a tumor, but it's still like the size of a softball and it's got my windpipe in a WWE-worthy chokehold, so it needs to go. Plus there's the risk that it could burst at some point in the future if it isn't removed, but they say that's unlikely :3

So I'll definitely stay in touch and keep my eye on this RP, but until I've at least gotten all this medical stuff taken care of, I'm afraid I can't really commit to anything beyond expressing my interest and wishing you luck. Sorry.

@Shadow Daedalus

Not a problem at all! But I'd recommend watching it, as some major plotting goes on in it.

@Starlance

It'll be more character-driven (but some plot and action will be nicely squeezed in there too)!

I'd like y'all to post your CSs here before I make an OOC (as we don't want any extras, do we?). FOLLOW THE COLOR RULE. Pls

@PatrickDrummer@Turboshitter

First three accepted get the spots. I'd like the basics (weapons, race, appearance, personality, history, semblance etc.) I'll be reusing a character from an old RWBY rp. Please explain how your character's name relates to color if it's not something obvious like "Ruby" or "Azure".

@canaryrose

Awesome! I'll try to have something up tonight if I can.
