Tower of God [OOC]

[Notebooks]

Lets hope that I can grow before failing or worse....dying. Which I don't see happening.

Haha. We're not going to kill off your character, and you're hardly the weakest. As Dust says, they're just guidelines. ^^

[Bumblebee848]

Here's my first character, let me know if I need to change anything, I wasn't sure how strong she should be if she was from the Ha family. I've got a scout on the way.

Name: Ha Viora
Age: 122~

Appearance:
She looks like a typical teenager, her appearance stalwartly refusing to belie her true age. Standing at 5' 6" she has an average build, with strong limbs. Her red eyes contrast sharply with her black hair, which is almost always hidden under a cap. She has a tendency to dress extravagantly, often wearing a pair of shorts under her skirts in order to move more easily, while still remaining 'easy on the eyes'.

Position: Fisherman

Abilities/Fighting Style:
Viora has trained herself for most of her life, and relies heavily on her strength. She possesses the amazing physical attributes that all members of the Ha family are bestowed with. Her ability to manipulate shinsoo to strengthen her body has been refined to an art, and as such, she has a great deal of strength, speed, and agility. Often, she can be seen in the front lines of battle, attacking with an almost animalistic ferocity. While she is more adept at close range combat, preferring to be in the center on the action, she is fully capable of using reels to fight from a distance, though not nearly as skilled as she would like to be.

Weapons/Inventory:

• Arms inventory (7F): A general inventory given to her before she began climbing the tower. It is capable of equipping up to six weapons at a time, including a reel.
• Reel inventory (8F): A generic reel that attaches to the arms inventory and hook.
• Small sword (9F): A generic weapon that Viora prefers not to use, and isn't very handy with. She is capable of wielding it, but is slightly more clumsy and slow when using it.
• Hook (9F): A very basic hook that attaches to the reel inventory. She is capable with this weapon, but not amazingly skilled whatsoever.
• Needles (6F): A pair of black needles of varying size that Viora can be quite destructive with. She demonstrates a terrifying level of strength and control with these, often using the longer needle for mid-ranged combat and the shorter one for close-range combat. Her most renowned skill is being able to use both at once, and hold off several enemies at various distances.

Family: Ha Family

Contracts:

• Enhanced shinsoo resistance and control
• Body strengthening ability

Personality:
Viora is strong willed and resilient. She is naturally stubborn and hard headed, with an almost deadly determination to climb the tower. While she is sympathetic to others, she never allows her conscience to hinder her own goals; therefore, she will only help others if it benefits her. When in battle, she puts on a cold and heartless mask, rarely showing mercy or regret. Once she has made an ally, however, she can be proven to be very friendly and loyal.
Having been raised in one of the ten great families, she does possess a slight superiority complex, often referring to herself as a stronger and higher being, and won't hesitate to insult and put down others if she is provoked. She is aware of her strength, and is not afraid to flaunt it a bit, which has gotten her into trouble in the past.

History:
Viora's history is simple and standard. She was born into a main branch of the Ha family, and trained from birth to climb the tower. Originally, she had no drive to climb the tower, content with her life at home, with her two younger sisters. She cherished them, wanting nothing more than to take care of them and support them herself. She was the strongest of the three, however, showing the most promise. As a result, her beloved siblings were neglected in favor of her, a fact that she despised. When they were separated from her, taken to foster parents where they wouldn't hinder her training, she decided to climb the tower in order to forge a path that they could follow, and create a life for them, where they could all live together as the family that she had always dreamed of having.

Stats:

• Overall: 5F
• Physical Ability: 2F
• Shinsoo Control: 6F
• Intelligence: 7F
• Weapon Mastery: 6F
• Willpower: 5F
• Weapons Level: 6F
• Pocket: E
• Inventory: F
• Lighthouse: N/A
• Wand: N/A

[Dust]

Seems good, Bee. Just dial back Shinsoo control a little bit and make Weapons Level 6F (it matches your strongest item) and it’s approved.

[Bumblebee848]

Edited.
Just a quick question, can we have guns as weapons? There's been a sniper and a pistol involved in the manhwa, but I don't actually know how common they are.

[Dust]

Yeah, you can have guns though they aren't as powerful for the same reasons swords are harder to wield on higher floors, increased Shinsoo density and all. I believe that the character with the sniper rifle had it listed as a 10F weapon, though that might be because the character sheet was made after the rifle was destroyed. All in all, technology is fairly modern in the Tower (though most things are Shinsoo powered, I assume).

Also, approved.

[Dunn]

welcome aboard rise. a spear bearer is a welcome addition, be ready to think out side the box

[Bumblebee848]

Name: Avia Zohn
Age: 17

Appearance:
Standing at about 5' 4" Avia possesses a light and nimble frame, ideal for speed and agility. Her blonde hair has been cropped short, and are accented with a pair of serious yellow gold eyes. She dresses with practicality in mind, wearing protective clothes that are easy to move in, usually opting to use a pair of boots and a cap.

Position: Scout

Abilities/Fighting Style:
What Avia lacks in strength, she makes up for in speed, and what she lacks in upper body strength, she makes up for with lower body strength. Her legs are her strongest area, allowing her deliver strong and focused kicks that can even break bones, depending on the situation.
Because she doesn't look like much to others, her ability to move and react quickly often comes as a surprise. While she will sometimes use this for surprise attacks, she's used to using it as a quick escape out of bad situations. She quick and light footed, able to move almost completely silently. She uses her small frame to her advantage, often able to duck under and around larger opponents or wriggle out of grasps; she is not above using 'low blows' as she calls them.
A surprising level of flexibility often aids her in fights as well. She has developed a technique she calls the 'Zohn Knot', in which she wraps her limbs around an individual and locks them together, effectively restraining even the strongest opponent for at least a minute.
In general, due to her physical overall weakness, she is far more underhanded in her style of fighting. One of her best attributes is her ability to act, in which she allows others to underestimate her, and even acts out the part of a weakling, in order to take them completely by surprise.

Weapons/Inventory:

• Arms inventory (F): A simple customized inventory that can store up to three weapons, not including a reel inventory. It goes virtually unused by Avia.
• Observers (9F): A pair of standard observers, that collect and transmit visual information. Avia is highly skilled at controlling these, knowing how best to strategically place them, though two is her limit. She will not receive these until later.
• Pistol (9F): This is a standard handgun, that can fire rounds at high speeds. While it comes in useful for ranged combat, as Avia has a good eye and aim, it loses its value as she climbs the tower. For now, however, she uses it as her primary weapon, preferring to fight from a distance rather than up close.
• Dual knives (8F): A pair of lightweight knives that are often sheathed in Avia's boots. When forced into close combat, she will utilize these together or sometimes use a combination with her gun, proving herself to be skilled with blades, though not extraordinary.
• Rope (10F): A simple braided rope, enhanced with shinsoo, that Avia usually keeps coiled on her waist. It isn't capable of much else than a regular rope, the shinsoo only making it less susceptible to wear. It comes in handy if Avia needs to restrain someone, or climb something.

Family: N/A

Contracts: N/A

Personality:
Serious and cold. Avia is incredibly narrow minded in that once she has set her eyes on a goal, she will not let anything distract her from achieving it. She may appear stubborn, but really, she is just very very determined. She prefers not to accept help from others, but is smart enough to know when she'll need it.
Despite this straightforward personality, however, she is surprisingly squeamish about killing, often bringing morality into question. She prefers to incapacitate and injure, rather than kill. When she sees someone in need of help, or on the verge of death, very few things can keep her from jumping in to help, regardless of the context or situation. Once someone has gained her trust, they have gained unswerving loyalty and friendship as well. It is hard to forge a strong lasting relationship with her, but once it has been made, they can rest easy knowing she is always supporting them and willing to lay her life on the line for their sake.

History:
Born and raised in the outer tower, she lived a somewhat hard life, not having come from any fame or fortune. Her family was a large one, with many branches, so she grew up knowing many siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents of all kinds. All of the members were constantly vying for chances to climb the tower, making the family one full of lies, deceit, cons, blackmail, and all other kinds of unpleasantry. When Avia began to show skill and potential, she inevitably doomed her family, drawing unwanted attention mixed with envy and hate. Avia was always in close competition with her cousin, the son of her mother's sister. As Avia began to advance past him, her aunt began to plot against them. Until her seventeenth birthday, Avia had lived a relatively happy life without any particular events. One day turned her entire world upside down, though. Her mother died unexpectedly in childbirth, and with barely enough time to properly mourn her death, Avia discovered that her father had been framed for theft, and he had to flee. In a single day, Avia lost everything she had ever had. Rather than fall into despair, however, she strengthened her resolve, and was finally chosen to enter the tower. Leaving her brother in the care of an old shopkeeper that she trusted dearly, Avia began her climb, for the sake of the only family she had left.

Scout is finally up!
Also, if you don't mind me making suggestions, I think it might be quicker and easier if you just assign us to predetermined teammates, and we'll be in charge of getting our characters together. It would definitely add to the feeling of randomness, where we have absolutely no idea who we'll upend up with.

[Dust]

Approved.

And I'll probably do that for anyone that doesn't have a team when the RP starts. If you've made a team, post here to let me know. I'll probably have the IC up today or tomorrow.

[Dunn]

well , me and rise are a team

[ZeKain]

Of course I should be partnered with a lighthouse, right Dunn
