The Nameless City — Invite Only!

Youmu passed through the doorway...

The fact that the exited the stagecoach was only the first in a series of strange things about this new location. To begin with, the more the diminutive half-phantom took in their surroundings, the more appallingly run-down and decrepit they appeared. Youmu had never seen anywhere so terribly ruined, and it was almost sad simply to look at. What had happened here? The ruined city, while destroyed, had appeared to be in a far better condition then this place. What had happened to everyone? All she saw was one man, trying to hide a rictus grin. The sight unnerved her, her phantom half drifting from side to side as she cautiously stepped forward, one hand drifting close to Roukanken's hilt as she did. She didn't like any of this, not one bit.

But... This was also their only way forward, at least that Youmu knew of, that showed any sign of figuring out just what was happening. It seemed like something wanted them to come here, yes, but that didn't mean they truly had any other choices.

She took a deep breath. This was for Yuyuko-sama's sake, after all.

"... Hello?"

@HiippoAF: Declined, you cut out the backstory section of the bio. Additionally, you did not take into account spells for his abilities, and seem to have misunderstood the thread as a fantasy RP rather than an Urban Fantasy one.

Interested as discussed so yeah!

@Ginnungagap: Good quality mana in low amounts means you can't do much at one time, but what you can do is very potent. Bad mana but high quantity means you can do a lot, but it's relatively weak.

@HiippoAF: I restarted it with a hope of filling up a couple lost slots, so it's definitely open.

Mist City Story: An Urban Fantasy Mage RP

• Name: Arinne Velvet Ar-Rynesarte
• Age: 14
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: Arinne has blonde hair, pale skin, and blue eyes. She is very petite, quite short even for her age at below 152.4 cm/5 feet in height.
• Personality: Arinne has what many would call a bad personality. She is arrogant, self-assured, and manipulative, fond of seeing others struggle and quite eager to make the lives of the people around her harder for her own amusement. Referred to as 'the Blonde Devil' by some senior magi, her attitude is well-known throughout the Tower. To put it simply, Arinne has a sadistic streak. She also enjoys mocking or teasing others, and has nothing but complete confidence in her own capabilities as a mage. Indeed, she is quite proud of her own bloodline, and of her own capabilities. Arinne also has a vengeful, spiteful side. She deeply resents the branch families that sold off portions of the Ar-Rynesarte's assets, even some of the contracts they held, and would take satisfaction in finding some way to undermine or dismantle them the moment she gained the opportunity. However, it is also clear that she has some level of concern for the magi now in her employ, even if she does take pleasure in making life difficult for them and teasing them whenever she has the opportunity. While she will stop at nothing to find her parents' killer, at the very least she does not seem to have any desire to sacrifice those who are under her contract in order to do it. She is very plain about her intentions if the killer is found, however. Arinne plans to kill them. Even if she was not present for the death of her mother and father, even if she does not have many memories of them, she absolutely cannot accept a world in which the one who murdered them walks free and unpunished.
• Abilities: Arinne's arrogance is not unfounded. A prodigy mage carrying the blood of the Ar-Rynesarte family, she has a large mana supply that is of a very high quality. Her Affinity is Water, and she has a specialization in Ice beyond that. Her magic is therefore best suited to spells relating to flows and cycles, but also to Stillness and Stagnation. Of course, more directly, she can utilize water as a projectile via various spells, and use spells to freeze the moisture in the air into icicle bullets. However, she can also utilize spells to slow or freeze something in place. One particularly unusual spell allows her to convert a solid material into a liquid or vice-versa, though it only functions on inanimate objects and only within a magic circle she has put into place with chalk, making it irrelevant in a direct conflict. Additionally, she has use of the German spell Schattenpfiel, a low-power projectile spell that can be swiftly cast and used without relying on moisture in the air.
• Skills: Arinne possesses few life skills, but she does seem to know just the right way to tease people.
• Assets: While some of the Ar-Rynesarte family's assets have been sold off, Arinne still possesses their mansion and a considerable amount of wealth. This includes a large number of maids in her service. With her mansion comes the unique defensive barrier Crystal Killing Array, a defensive system embedded into the foundation of the Ar-Rynesarte mansion. When activated, it begins to manifest as a sheet of liquid that coats the walls and automatically seeks out body heat, attacking it by crystallizing and striking out at the target. If it is activated, any maids in the mansion are quickly called to one room to avoid their being harmed. The system ignores those possessing Ar-Rynesarte blood, but due to its method of tracking it can easily be fooled and it is best suited to penetrating soft targets as opposed to magical defenses or armor.
• Brief Backstory: Arinne was born into the Ar-Rynesarte family and swiftly prepared to be yet another powerful mage bearing the family name. Her parents rarely spent any time with her, outside of what was necessary to facilitate her growth as a mage, but they were not without care for her. When she was six years old, spending time at the home of a family associate, her parents were suddenly killed. There were no witnesses, but it was undeniably not a natural death, the interiors of their bodies heavily lacerated by some sort of magic. Left alone, without siblings or parents, Arinne was unable to take her position as the family head for many years. During this time, various branch families leeched off of the main family's wealth, even selling assets possessed by the Ar-Rynesarte. But during this time, Arinne also grew as a magus, receiving schooling and expanding her capabilities. As she grew older, her reputation as something of a devil grew as well. She quite recently activated the contracts she still possesses, with the goal of locating the one who murdered her parents through any means necessary.

Mahou Shoujo no Hex Night: A Magical Girl Battle RP

Hikari most certainly did not jump when Fuyuko's sister surprised the other girl. That definitely wasn't the case at all. She was looking right at her, why ever would she get surprised by something like that? Don't be ridiculous. Someone like her would never do something as silly as that, especially now that she'd become a magical girl and participated in an actual battle.

She remained silent for a few moments and allowed the two siblings to talk to one another. From her perspective, it just seemed like the typical conversation between siblings... Hikari didn't know either of them well enough to pick up on anything else. She waited patiently as Fuyuko tapped out a message on her phone, but as soon the other girl was done she was already turning to make her way towards the forest.

"I'm sure your family would understand if they knew!" she declared, with a firm nod, "Someone creepy like that can't just be allowed to do whatever they please."
