Will there be a point in the RP where we will go against opposing magi? (excluding each other)

I'm not going to spoil anything directly, but I'll say this.

This are supernatural crimes. Any supernatural figure, human or otherwise, could be the perpetrator.

Sorry this is a little late, but what kind of things were you expecting homunculi characters to be able to do ability wise? Also, under what situations would people usually attempt to create one be? I take it that your trying to kill someone in order to make someone better or something?

Well, homunculi can be tailored to be magi, or assassins, or just about anything. They're useful because they can be "programmed" with any set of skills. In this setting, for example, there is a homunculus to whom killing is as natural as breathing.

As for the situation, it depends. A homunculus could be created to aid an organization, fight for them, to be the ultimate assassin, any number of different things. A homunculus needs a human soul to be created and therefore creating one involves the death of human being, or something with a human soul.

So I could create a homunculi that wasn't entirely human in the first place? How physically strong would they be allowed to be without having any magic? Also, what kind of weapons are we talking about in this rp? Any magic-ish materials that our characters are allowed to have? Like guns made out of special materials that make them a bit more effective against the supernatural?

The soul is just the source of life(what makes a human a human is a lot more complicated then that), homunculi are human in appearance and biology all the same, but still. They can be tailored to be quite strong physically with no magical abilities. As for weapons, making guns out of magical materials is rather unlikely.

Oh right, forgot to ask. Do runes fall under written magic as well? And is there anything in the writing process that makes written magic magical rather than just writing down words/symbols that are just scrawlings on a paper?

EDIT: Also would it be possible to prepare documents with spells on them beforehand?

Runes are a type of written magic.

As for what makes it magic, mana is used in invoking it even when it's written. It's a combination of the words any symbols written, ingredients used for some spells, and this mana.

Name: Enoch Roswell
Age: 25
Appearance:

Personality: A flirtatious individual who has an uncanny talent of sensing when women (beautiful women specifically) are in a time of need. Enoch is still able to retain a professional attitude while working though he still may throw a few flirtatious comments every now and again. He does however respect Toshiko and won't flirt with her. Due to his past as an ex-criminal, he does have slight trouble keeping his hands off valuable objects and tends to be stickler with money. Though because of his shady past he knows how the mind of a criminal works and know's the trade like the back of his hand. He is very sociable and charming though at the same time he is deceptive and clever, which is what he uses in his interrogations though if that doesn't work he isn't above anyone else to perform less than...ethical methods. It is worth noting that he likes to be free and hates being restricted by responsibility.

Abilities: Enoch's affinity is the cat. When these spells are activated, many passive abilities are unlocked, such as acute night vision. He is able to see in darkness as if it was sunny. His sense of hearing increases drastically, being able to pick up frequencies that humans normally can't and noises from a greater distance. Enoch's sense of smell also increases as he is able able to pick up the faintest of smells. And obviously, he is able use cat claws made of mana in combat. The magic circle of this is carved on his back so he can perform spells at a faster rate. A magic trait that's been passed down his family is Illusion Break, a passive skill that allows a person to see through illusions.

He is very skilled in hand to hand combat and weaponry though where he truly shines is his extensive knowledge of different types of crimes and the know how of how to perform them with ease. As a trained thief, his is also very stealthy and is able to sneak by without a sound. He is exceptionally good at forgery to the point where others can't distinguish the real thing from the fake.

Weapons/Equipment: Throwing knives and smoke bombs

Brief Backstory: The Roswell family was notorious as a family of master thieves who have the ability of magi. Enoch was the next to be the head of the family since he was the first born son and thus was made sure to be molded into the perfect thief and a powerful magi. Though they spoke of great plans for the young boy, Enoch had no interest of being the head of a crime family because he valued his freedom too much to be tied down to his family's desire. At 18 years old he was an infamous figure in the crime world due to his first class skills as a thief though he grew more worried that he would be brought into the position of the head of the family soon due to his father's recent illness. Enoch ran away and was deemed a traitor by his family and they searched for years to find him and bring him back by any means necessary. The young man was able to out smart them all and covered his tracks as he fled to Japan, prospering as a thief until seven years later Toshiko had caught him in one of her cases. Rather than turning him in, she gave him the option of either coming to work for her or be thrown in jail. Despite his hurt pride, he took her offer and became a detective.

Hmm, I think you're mostly okay, but I'd also suggest dropping the gun.

This is mostly because I think that, given the location, guns should be pretty limited.

Oh, right, um...

Again, this is something I probably should have mentioned. ^^; Slipped my mind, um, how do the cat claws work? Altering yourself physically requires plenty of training because the spells are complex, so it might be better if they're some kind of mana construct.

Alright. I'd assume the magic circle on his back helps for more quickly casting his spells?

Toshiko would certainly see the use in employing a former thief.

Also, I am hoping to have this started by the weekend.
