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.

Falling.

It's a sensation that is rarely ever met with celebration. This situation, is, indeed, not an exception to this fact. For the moment that a certain set of individuals selected the 'yes' option on a set of mysterious letters, they suddenly found themselves far away from home.

Also far away from the ground.

Indeed, the experience of falling several hundred meters down to the surface of the earth was hardly one to be celebrating about. For that matter, it was quite a terrifying one. It was also easy to perceive that this was most certainly not the location they had been in prior. Below the falling figures, a forest was rapidly rushing upwards to meet them. It seemed to be the only thing that was excited about this arrangement, given how swiftly it seemed to be hurtling towards them. Their specific destination seemed to be a clearing near a small lake, but that really didn't make this any better, now, did it?

Indeed, it seemed as if whoever had summoned them had made a critical error, and that they were all about to die extremely untimely deaths. What a disappointment. How subversive. No-one will expect this ending.

Only that didn't happen at all.

The moment, the very instant, that anyone who didn't manage to compensate for the fall was about to hit the ground... they suddenly slowed down to a stop, floating momentarily half a meter above the ground.

They were then dropped somewhat uncerimoniously to the earth, but otherwise they were entirely unharmed.

With a somewhat less terrifying situation occurring around them, now, it was possible to perhaps preceive their surrounds somewhat more.

It was a forest. There didn't seem to be anything but trees around, though the calling of birds and insects was definitely audible. The lake nearby was completely pure and glittering and pristine, so clear the fish beneath the surface could be seen quite clearly. The sky was blue, with not a cloud in sight.

And some of the bushes nearby were shifting strangely, as if something was hiding nearby...




The tan-skinned girl's thick tail swished back and forth. She didn't realize she was doing it, the scaly appendage rustling the bushes around her as she peered at the result of her handiwork. That was six people! Six had answered! To be honest, she hadn't expected more then three, this was even better then she had hoped.

Folding her arms under her chest, she couldn't help but give herself a metaphorical pat on the back, smiling with pride. They all looked like they were... well, at the very least they had to be useful if not powerful. Ah... was it okay for her to be smiling so smugly to herself?! It had to be, after she did such a great job!

Tail still swishing back and forth, the draconic girl nodded to herself in a self-satisfied way. This was their path forward. These would be the people who would save her community!

Of course, now she had to decide how to introduce herself. Yes, yes... she needed to really convey who she was perfectly, give a great first impression, and educate them about the new world they found themselves in!

But how could she do that...?

'I am Lila Loren Lovelace, and Welcome to the World of Nova Terra'?

'Hello, Champions from other Worlds! I am Lila Loren Lovelace, the one who summoned you here'?

'Greetings, o Champions, as one of Nova Terra's aristocrats I welcome you'?

No, no... she had to make the perfect first impression! She was feeling so good about this now, Lila couldn't allow herself to say something silly and make herself look foolish! This was for the sake of her community, after all. She had to give them all a great first impression! She had to introduce them all to their new world!

So, she couldn't mess this up!

Right?

  • Name: Lila Loren Lovelace
  • Age: Physically appears somewhere in her late teens, from 17-19.
  • Gender: Female
  • Race: Dragonblood
  • Appearance: "Maybe... this way we'll get back everything we lost...!"
  • Personality: Lila is not someone who is utterly without pride. As one of those possessing Dragonblood, she is among Nova Terra's nobility from birth, standing as one of the few with the authority to officiate challenges due to their position. Even now, after Silver Sun has fallen so low, she still has this ability, her body intrinsically tied to Nova Terra. As a result, she does take some pride in her heritage, in her bloodline, and she is not above boasting at times of this. However, in spite of her pride, Lila's primary concern is with the well-being of her community. She desperately wants to help those suffering due to the state of Silver Sun, desiring to help bring it back to its original glory so that those who are a part of it can be happy and thrive once again. Even in spite of Silver Sun's dire circumstances, Lila is still a polite and cheerful girl. Perhaps this is motivated in part because of her desire to draw in people who can help Silver Sun flourish once more, but that doesn't make it less genuine. Even considering her politeness, however, Lila can become quite frustrated and angry if someone successfully gets a rise out of her. She will not back down for any reason if it's for the sake of Silver Sun, but she is also surprisingly easily flustered and embarrassed.
  • Abilities: As a Dragonblood, Lila is enormously fast and strong and has the natural ability to control and breath fire. This is something inherent to all of her kind. Due to her nature, she is also directly tied to the existence of Nova Terra, able to officiate Nova Challenges and even cancel them or alter the rules. However, she must have strong justification for this, and the game will simply resume unaltered if she does not. Lila possesses the ability to tap further into her dragon blood, manifesting fiery wings from her shoulders and enhancing her capabilities greatly. She is also incredibly durable and resistant to physical damage. In the absolute most dire circumstances, Lila is also the holder of Dragon Slaughter Ascalon, the murderous lance that annihilated a mighty dragon in a single blow. It may seem odd that one with dragon blood carries such a weapon, but it is not something she will even draw without due need. Dragon Slaughter Ascalon is devastatingly powerful, vaporizing the target on impact in an enormous blast of magical energy, but it is also taxing and can cause considerably collateral damage in addition to Lila's usual reluctance to actually use it.
  • Skills: Lila is extremely competent and knowledgeable when it comes to the rules of effectively any game in existence. But this is practically required of anyone of the Dragonblood who still serves as part of Nova Terra's nobility. She is a remarkably competent fighter, though not the most skilled among anyone who has ever been a part of Silver Sun.
  • Backstory: Lila was born among the Dragonblood, and naturally served as part of Nova Terra's administration of Nova Challenges. Eventually, she came to be part of Silver Sun, and grew attached to the community and was happy to be one of its members. Unfortunately, she has seen the community fall apart, and have all of its strongest members killed or torn away by challenges. Even she has been an intended target... Finally, desperate to save Silver Sun, she has sent letters beyond the world of Nova Terra, into other universes...
  • Origin: Native
@Randomness: There's a ton of wildly varying technology, but the most modern thing is, inexplicably, televisions.
@Rin: Accepted.

As promised, RP is going to start today!
@Randomness: This is a lot better, but now that there's only one isekai slot left I'm holding off on accepting anyone because someone who was on board from the start is finally getting the chance to finish up their bio and is aiming for an isekai character. Naturally this means that she's going to get first pick of the final slot, provided she finishes the bio up today. ^^;

As for your question, as stated in the OP the land their community is on physically moved to the edge of the actual city, and that land lost its fertility due to a challenge.
@PaulHaynek: Get well soon!
@Styrgwyr: This all works out. Accepted.
@Randomness: It's better, but I'd need to see it properly written out.

@Styrgwyr: That works just fine.

As for images, how about this?
@Styrgwyr: This clarifies a lot for me. As long as it's pretty clear she'll be able to do that even if she can't right now, she'd be considered someone valuable who could help restore Silver Sun.

We're going to be operating at a pretty high level very quickly, which is why I was looking for characters decidedly on the strong side of things.

As for images, sure, I'll start looking!
@Styrgwyr: This is a bit of a nitpick, but using Cagliostro for your faceclaim kind of throws me off given I know the character and how she acts. ^^; If you're willing to switch I'm willing to help you find something else, there's plenty of smug loli images.

I also think you need to punch up her skills a bit. We already have some natives who can address medical needs, so I think a good angle would to be going all in on her prodigal nature as an alchemist.

@Randomness: Going to have to say no to being able to grow plants from nothing and stuff. One of the big things is going to be regaining the land's fertility from the beginning, directly solving that immediately kind of hurts the RP.
