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.

I'll try and get a Suwako post done soon.
Well, the males are biggest. The females are pretty short, but equally strong in spite of this.

In part because seeing a tiny girl hurl a grown man like he's nothing is really amusing but also because I will admit the Dehmel are basically Draphs from Granblue Fantasy. ^^;
@Grey: I guess I'm still a little perplexed by the Dehmel specifically having a martial art for fighting things bigger then them but I guess that's not necessarily a problem. Hmmm.
@Grey: I feel like I do need to clarify I'm trying to avoid "one race is from only one place"(with the exception of a couple types of beastkin) quickly, just so you do know. ^^;

Also, I'll post myself when @PKMNB0Y posts again...

I'm also opening up two more "our world" character slots, for a total of six.

Finally...

  • Name: Alistasia Vanfarion
  • Age: 22
  • Gender: Female
  • Race: Human/???
  • Appearance: "If the enemy isn't prepared to die, then they should never have set foot on the battlefield!" Alistasia is fairly short.
  • Personality: Alistasia is, in some respects, able to be considered an ideal soldier. She is highly intelligent and capable of strategic thinking, while also dedicated to her duties and assignments. However, this cannot be considered the whole of her character. Far from it. For as much as she seems to be a rule-abiding soldier of Grandia, Alistasia's conduct on the battlefield shows something of her true nature. Between giving orders and instructions, Alistasia displays an almost psychotic adoration of violence, grinning in a murderous fashion as she performs what can only be described as the obliteration of enemy forces. In spite of this seemingly maniacal behavior, she also displays a clear regard for strategy and gives level-headed and clear instructions to her forces even as she conducts her gruesome work. Quite simply it seems as if the girl takes pleasure in how much she terrorizes the enemy(and sometimes her allies). Harsh and unyielding, it's no small wonder that among Grandian Soldiers she is referred to as the Cold Steel Princess. In spite of her violent attitude and seemingly psychotic love of violence, Alistasia is quite protective and considerate towards those directly under her command, taking care not to put their lives in unnecessary danger and coming to their aid whenever she is able to do so. That being said, she is also not above punishing them, their failures as soldiers resulting in their very deliberate humiliation(one of her favorite methods being to force them to be furniture). Yes, just because Alistasia cares about her soldiers does not mean she will not bully them or subject them to harsh and surprising training exercises for her own amusement, some of her subordinates more subjected to bullying then others. While Alistasia is most definitely a sadist, she despises torture and any soldiers caught conducting torture under her command will be subjected to immediate execution. She is also careful not to involve any civilians in military action under any circumstances.
  • Brief Backstory: Beyond rising rapidly through the ranks of the Grandian Imperial Army, little is known directly about Alistasia's history. To Grandia, she is the Cold Steel Princess. To Felbar, she is the Bloody Steel Demon.
  • Abilities: Alistasia is a standout mage with an enormous pool of mana to draw from, standing above even many of the expert magi in the Grandian Imperial Army. Almost all of her incredible magical power is diverted to one specific form of magic: The materialization and manipulation of swords. Alistasia can create a seemingly infinite amount of swords, modify them for whatever purpose she desires, and use them as projectiles or melee weapons as she sees fit. She can use them as barriers, weaving blades together in order to block attacks, or even as a mode of transport, riding a single gigantic sword down into battle. Indeed, Alistasia's focus on swords is to the exclusion of almost all other forms of magic, aside from basic reinforcement and self-recovery spells. That being said, her capabilities with her magic blades are so incredibly high that she can even wipe out entire greatarmor units solely on her own. That being said, her swords are not unbreakable and sufficient skill is capable of deflecting them or dodging them. Additionally, magical countermeasures are more likely to find success then mundane ones due to the swords' nature as magical constructs. Alistasia herself is nothing more then a small, fragile, doll-like girl no matter how capable she is of slaughtering the enemy with blades.
  • Skills: Alistasia has excellent aim, is highly intelligent, and is a very capable commanding officer. Additionally, as a Grand Captain, she can take command of all Grandian forces on the battlefield whenever she chooses.
  • Equipment: A seemingly ordinary rifle and ordinary set of bullets. However, due to Alistasia's deep affinity for and adoration of swords, every bullet fired by her is warped, becoming an explosion of blades upon impact.
  • Origin: Native


Alistasia here is meant to be a fairly major antagonist, so don't take her as a signal of how your character should definitely be(at least to start with). Though she should help signify what magic is like as well.
I vote Tamamoeblob or Liz and I am totally not biased at all.
The court mage quietly nodded with a sigh.

"Angroron and any other matters related to Orodrunn," she said, placing one of the books on the desk and opening it. "It's clear to me that the attempt on the Princess's life was a cover for the theft of the shard... though judging by the information we received I don't believe the conspirators knew that. At least, not the one who survived."

She sighed again. Neither of the Nem had been told anything, aside from who to target and what would happen if the assassination failed. The mage who survived the raid seemed adamant that it had been done to rip the country down and rebuild it. And yet something didn't seem right to the court mage. The fact that there simply had been no other acts against the crown, even though the conspiracy had been so brazen prior. This seemed to indicate that they'd been annihilated, but why were they so small? And why had the struck on the same night as the theft of the shard?

It all seemed to fit together far too well to Bethany.

"But if someone is trying to gather the shards of Angroron, we need to have some idea of what they're attempting to do," the brunette mage continued, "It's not possible to reforge the sword, as it was created by Orodrunn himself and broken by a Saint empowered by the godesses. But the shards themselves hold enough darkness in them that surely they can achieve something..."

Bethany frowned deeply to herself. But what? Hopefully her research would shed some light on the matter, but in any case she was glad that her second meeting with one of the magi among the Roses was in a less crowded atmosphere with a subject she could deal far more easily with.

It was only a few moments later that the mage noticed the maid lingering nearby and staring directly at her chest. Blushing, she reflexively covered herself.

Alaree's response was immediate.

"I wasn't looking! At all!"

With that, the pigtailed maid was off, likely to avoid being chopped on the head with a book again.

I'll try and get my next post up later today!
Princess Vivienne Felvarre Croix


Everything suddenly became very... frenetic. There was... a thief? And people running about? What was with all of this? Vivienne huffed, frowning deeply as she watched the situation. Someone was petty enough to go committing a theft right now? She had half a mind to send someone after them... But she was swiftly distracted by the merchant calling to her. Unless the matter became even more inflated, she would heed her butler's words... for now.

"Fine, fine, Mister Silverwood," she said, waving her hand to the man, "We'll check out the shops tomorrow. But for now...!"

She quickly strolled over to the merchant. So he was giving her special attention, huh? Well of course he was! She was a Princess, after all, and that meant that giving her special attention was only natural. Not that anyone else wasn't worth being treated well, but she was going to lead the country some day, right? Or... some country, or... well, the important thing was that she'd have some kind of important position! So, naturally, Vivienne felt it was only right to treat her extra well, since she was going to have a very important job in the future.

"So, you have items worthy of one of Felbar's radiant Princesses?" asked Vivienne, leaning forward to attempt to inspect any goods that the merchant may have been selling.

Saber


Saber knew that her master was approaching before she even came close. It was only natural that the skills of a warrior would allow for such a thing, and moreso then that it was her Master. And, if Saber was to be honest, her Master was about as suited to stealth as a bear was suited to playing go. It wasn't something she would have told her Master, however. So, before Mira arrived, the white-haired girl had already turned to face her Master.

"If I let myself be killed by an attack like that, I couldn't call myself a warrior of my Lord," she responded, smiling slightly with a nod. Of course, deep down she knew the only reason she was able to recover from such a horrible injury was the nature of her body as a Servant. In life, she did not possess any special capabilities of self-recovery. But as a Servant, her body was incarnated from prana, allowing it to repair itself far more easily. "... Even still, your healing was enough to help my body fix itself more quickly. I've almost completely recovered from that attack."

What injuries remained to her internal organs were very minor, and would heal within the day. Still, that attack came so close to killing her... and she wasn't even certain what had caused it in the first place. All she knew was that, suddenly, her insides had been attacked, something had appeared in her body with the intent to carve her open from the inside out. Had she been possessed of weaker magic resistance, it likely would have finished the job.

"... Our attacker last night..." Saber paused for a moment. "I think it must have been some kind of magecraft, maybe a curse. If that's the case, our enemy was probably Caster, believing that they could take out one of the Knight classes with a surprise attack after our battle. I won't allow such a thing to happen again, Master."
