Current I think watching fight scenes can help in general terms with writing combat, since it can give you an idea of flow and choreography.

At least if you're writing something you know, with knights.

I mean, depends on what you're writing, and the tone and theme of what you're writing. Trained armored knights were legitimately monstrous on the battlefield, so looking up how they fought helps.

As much as there's a lot of reasons twitter sucks, I genuinely don't want to see it die for the sake of all the artists who now rely on it. Hoping the shithead stops trying to directly administrate.

roleplayerguild.com/posts/5… If anyone's up for fighting some kaiju, why not try out my new RP, Godzilla: YATAGARUSU?

@Pudding: Imgur seems like a good bet whenever images are being weird, yep.

This site has a bunch of names and their meanings, one that stands up to me is Chouko, which means butterfly child and could easily be applied to her showy nature. As for surnames... I'd take one when it has to do with flowers or something, since again, showy.
@Pudding: Thank you. ^^;

I'm not sure what's with the images then. Try rehosting them if nothing else? I've had images show up for me but not for other people before and usually rehosting it fixes them.

It's just that I don't think real Japanese people use those as names. This might seem nitpicky but if you want I can even help you pick out names with meanings that fit the character. I'm sure there are some.
@Pudding: While I like what you have so far, I'd like it if you ordered things in the bio format I've got set up already so it's a bit easier to look through and know you filled everything in. ^^;

A couple of images don't seem to be working, and I think you should change her name to a real Japanese name since I can't find anything about that anywhere. ^^;

Please don't take this as rejection or anything, though. I legitimately really like what you have so far and just think you need to tweak some things.
It's fine, this thread hasn't been up for too long at all!
Looking forward to seeing what you do!
I'm looking forward to it!
  • Name: Fujimori Akane
  • Magical Girl Title: Magical Girl Dragonblade Akane
  • Age: 16
  • Gender: Female
  • Appearance: "I want to be a hero..." With bonus school uniform design.
  • Magical Girl Appearance: "This Blade burns with Justice! In either form, her hair is red, she has light skin, and green eyes. Her armor and clothing as a magical is predominately red, but with gold decoration. Her horns are also gold, as well as her tail. A rarity among magical girls, Akane's horns and tail are actually a part of her body for the duration of her transformation.
  • Personality: Fujimori Akane, from a very young age, held a dream close to her heart. Her dream was to be a hero, to be someone who protects others and keeps them safe from harm. As a result, she always looked up to magical girls, and still does to this day. Akane deeply believes in justice and believes it is absolutely the duty of a magical girl to uphold it, to be a shining champion of hopes and dreams. She still holds her dream close to her heart to this day. However, in public, she can be a little shy at times and actually lacks confidence in herself, in spite of her private desire to be a hero. There's a reason it's a largely private desire. She's also fairly easily embarrassed, and it's not hard to make her exasperated at times. Indeed, in spite of her shyness, it could easily be said that the redheaded girl has something of a temper at times, though it's relatively mild and usually only comes out when she's truly annoyed about something. Still, Akane firmly believes that to be a magical girl is to be a champion of justice, hopes, and dreams. To protect the innocent, to fight against evil, Akane dreams of doing these things. But as of now, she's still prone to being a little shy when it comes to people she doesn't know especially. Still, if someone were in trouble, she'd try to step in and help them out. After all, that's what a hero does, isn't it? And indeed, it's Akane's greatest, if private, dream to be a hero. Aside from hero-related desires, Akane likes sweets a great deal and has a fairly large appetite. However, to her dismay, her attempts at baking tend to turn out less then good.
  • Skills: Akane is a decent sprinter and can name foreign sweets off the top of her head.
  • Abilities: As Magical Girl Dragonblade Akane, Akane gains a huge boost in speed and strength, moreso then some other girls. She also sprouts a dragon tail and dragon horns, the former of which can produce a stream of flames from the tip. Indeed, most of her abilities in this state revolve around projecting and controlling fire, as well as coating her sword in flames. The armor that forms on her body is decently defensive, especially the plating on her right arm, which can be used to block basic attacks and blows. In addition, while it's not her main mode of attack, her strength combined with her gauntlet can make for some potent punches.
    • Dragon Flame!: Akane thrusts Dragon Edge forward and releases a burst of flames towards her target.
    • Dragon Heat!: Akane coats her sword in fire.
    • Dragon Cut!!: Flames concentrate on the edge of Dragon Edge's blade, heating it and increasing its cutting ability further. In addition, it can be released into a thin arc of fire.
    • Dragon Spiral!!: Akane releases fire from both her sword and the tip of her tail before spinning rapidly through the air, releasing a whirling spiral of fire and a sharp edge.
    • Super Dragon Blade!!!: Plating coats Dragon Edge and locks in place, increasing Dragon Edge's size enormously and coating it in white-hot dragonfire. She swings Dragon Edge in an arc, cutting through most foes entirely. One of Akane's finishers.
    • Grand Dragon Blaze!!!: A raging inferno swirls around Dragon Edge. Akane raises it above her head and swings it downwards, unleashing an enormous blast of white-hot dragonfire that incinerates her foes. One of Akane's finishers.
  • Weapon(s): Dragon Edge, a thick, heavy, sharp sword wielded in Akane's right hand. Akane has the ability to alter its size, and it is capable of being used to project flames for many of her named and unnamed attacks.
  • Brief History: Akane was born to a fairly average Japanese family. However, when she was very young, a powerful Negari attacked her home, broke into it, and nearly killed both her and her mother. Akane vividly remembers the blazing light and the flashing speed of the magical girl who suddenly appeared on the scene and annihilated the Negari in one powerful attack. Ever since then, Akane has deeply desired, deep in her heart, to be a magical girl. As she's grown, this desire has remained unshakeable, but her confidence and ability to vocalize this desire has waned. Still, to think of what she would do if she actually got the chance...
    • Fairy Name: Melody
    • Fairy Appearance: "It's time to ignite your heart!"
    • Fairy Personality: Exuberant and energetic, Melody is utterly dedicated to the job of being a magical girl's fairy. She is determined to be the best fairy possible, and extremely excited to be Akane's partner. She wears the badge of a magical girl's fairy with pride, proudly displaying it on her chest, and she's sure to carry the rulebook wherever she goes. However, she's a bit easily upset the moment things don't go her way, prone to tearing up at times. She is also a staunch ally of Akane, eager to help her in many ways. Perhaps a few too many ways, as Melody might even try to help Akane in her daily life outside of being a magical girl even if it seems like there's no way she should be able to.

"... I think we may have hit upon exactly what happened, though it's not what you think it is, Ryuuko-kun," said Toshiko, finally, turning away from the wall. Funnily enough, it was what the girl had said that had finally put two and two together in the redheaded mage's mind. If her guess was true, that also meant that this did narrow down who may have done this. At the very least, they knew what kind of abilities they were dealing with. "You're well aware that one of the affinities for magic is air, correct?"

Taking the scrap of paper in her hand once more, she looked it over. "One of varieties of spells traditionally associated with air is known as displacement. It allows the caster to move an object without 'severing' it from its location. For example, you could cut a table in half with this spell, but upon restoring it the table would be one solid object once again. You could even transport limbs and other body parts and still have full control over them when you do so."

Scanning the wall once more, eyeing the spot the paper had been taken from, she continued. "If I'm correct, they may have displaced this wall in segments to disrupt the defences, then replaced it when they were finished. See how they evenly spaced the ofuda?"

Toshiko gestured to the evenly-spaced spots where it looked like something had been attached. There were marks of how the charms had burned away from their use, even. "But one of the walls went to the wrong place, breaking the library barrier and becoming lightly damaged in the process."
@Crimmy: Accepted. I like her outfit and her abilities.

I'll be having my own bio up hopefully soon!
