I'm not above postponing the deadline so that your character can be completed at your leisure. Kaben, I would recommend making your entrance on the document. I feel as if you would be able to contribute a lot to it, or, at the very least place Mokuren on her prospective team.

Make it either changing the kinetic energy of things by altering their speed or mass, or make it infusion objects with explosive energy. Potential energy, as a physics thing, doesn't cause things to explode--that's the main deal. At Jangel's behest, I have worked his character into the new format for him. However, I do have something that must be said for Jangel: while Tree tolerated you during the previous chapter, I will be expecting you to hold up to Casual-level standards while I'm the GM. That means capitalization, punctuation, and clear grammar. Think you can do it? Name: Greyson Ortega Age: 18 Gender: Male Race: Human Weapon: Ransack – a large buster sword equipped with a miniature shotgun on the blunt side of its blade. Specialty: in a fight, with Greyson's large sword and love for battle he will be best suited for the vanguard position or if their is a plan involved then Greyson would be suited as a decoy to draw the enemies attention with. Semblance: _Counter_ - for a split second, Greyson imbues his weapon with his aura, freezing himself in place. If an enemy strikes it during this time, the aura instantly transfers to it instead, paralyzing it and allowing Greyson to attack freely. Personality: Greyson is a good guy and as such is always smiling and being a kind to others. Greyson has the fever for battle, and when he is fighting, he goes out like man and will hack and slash his way to victory with a smile on his face. Greyson, nice however he may be, still hates when people talk about how they wish pain on others following an argument, which is a curse Greyson knows all to well so when someone tries to threaten someone that way he turns very dark and punches them--though if it's a woman, he warns her to take it back, or else. Color: Bright Green Emblem: ![emblem](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-VUY-b1ozJZo/VMRv8UAowkI/AAAAAAAAApA/aGwhXfDnND8/w443-h336-no/Symbols%2B-%2BGreyson%2B2.png "enter image title here") Appearance: ![Image](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-jDPSaRgmgHY/VEz7qI5AN2I/AAAAAAAAAmc/_IT2cU17zEU/w500-h750-no/Warriors%2B-%2BGrayson%2B2.png "enter image title here") **Announcement time** As of now I am wiping 'Sillygoy' and 'Shadowkiller's friend' from the OP. That's not to say they're kicked out; they'll just have to apply again. Asura, if you do not respond within one day, I'll be wiping you as well, though you can still complete your sheet and turn it back in to be reinstated. Once Lokileo edits his character, we'll be at 22/24 characters. First off, holy cow we have quite the crowd. practically our own little community. Secondly, that means that if Sixsmith and Asura both finish their characters, we are closed for signups. I also have one question to pose to each and every one of you. The question is 'theme?' No, not music, though that might be a part of it. In the anime, each team has a theme. RWBY is fairy tail characters (Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Belle, and Goldilocks) JNPR is famous crossdressers (Joan of Arc, Thor, Achilles, Mulan), CRDL is birds, and CFVY is drinks. We've got the Chinese Monkey King, the Roman god of the sea, Lampwick from Pinocchio, and much more. I think I can safely say that no teams sport a cohesive theme, and that's okay, because we're many different authors rather than few. Thing is, not many of the characters seem to have real themes either. One of the most powerful literary techniques is that of Allusion, the reference to a prior work of literature or art to appeal to a preexisting idea, understanding, etc. Some of us have themes that are clear, like Mary, Rumplestiltskin, Robin Hood, Peter Pan, or the mythical Kitsune, and each of these characters are, in my opinion, made more interesting by them. Since we're still in the planning phase, there is plenty of time -if you want to- to take another look at your character and say "I wonder if it would be awesome/interesting if --- were loosely based of of ---?" Thanks for hearing me out on this.

Hm. I could base Indie on the Phantom of the Opera, except instead of a deformation he has a mental disorder -I'm thinking it should be pyromania- that causes one of his parents to abuse him. This leads him to hide and hate his true self and stride to be the best to appease them. Does anyone else have any ideas about whom he could be based on?

I think Sapphire is a pretty good fit for the Greek hero Atalanta. In Sapphire's background her father wanted to train a son in the trade if being a hunter but Sapphire's brother couldn't deal with Janus's extreme and abusive form of teaching and ran away. Scared that she would be next Sapphire also ran. Ill prepared and about seven years old she ran into trouble of the Grimm variety very quickly. Luckily there were some qualified hunters patrolling the area who saved her, she was returned to her home. Atalanta's father, King Iasus similarly wanted a son; when Atalanta was born, he left her on a mountaintop to die. Some stories say that a she-bear suckled and cared for Atalanta until hunters found and raised her, and she learned to fight and hunt as a bear would. She was later reunited with her father. So not exactly the same but similar. I'll let you know if I come up with anything better.

There are a whole slew of masked characters to pick from. One that I easily recollect is V, an anarchist donning the Guy Fawkes, who wields knives. In general, if you're looking for ideas, there's no better place to start than Tvtropes.com. I looked up the trope 'an axe to grind' which basically means 'a person who fights with axes' in the literature section and found [This guy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li_Kui_%28Water_Margin%29) in less than five minutes--he's a berserker bandit from Water Margin, one of the great Chinese literatures. On another note, here's Oswald. ![Oswald](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-UQNMhgYyufQ/VMSLZ76NtOI/AAAAAAAAApo/1JvgLnDeEhw/w323-h548-no/Warriors%2B-%2BOswald.png "enter image title here") ![symbol](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-kXzOcDxNP14/VMSLZwFI_AI/AAAAAAAAApc/lw4QAK6ABdI/w114-h154-no/Symbols%2B-%2BOswald.png "enter image title here") Gosh darnit made the emblem tiny @Prince, good find! Greek myths always have so much to inspire with. @Forsythe, good enough for me. Not everyone needs one; its basically just an exercise in creativity.

Hey, Lug, concerning theme, my character is based off the Chinese Jade Rabbit. ^^ If that helps any. I noticed the Sun Wukong themed character, so I wouldn't mind pushing him into a Chinese themed team. :o (Someone needs to make someone based off of Chang'e and Hou Yi. *COUGH*) Saying that, I'm very close to finishing him. :o If I don't get him done tonight, he'll be finished tomorrow. If anyone wants, I could offer help finding themes that fit a character. If Lug intends to go with the theme based teams, and if he okays me helpin' others with it.

Double post D: BUT HAVE A RABBIT. I literally couldn't find a picture of an actual dude with rabbit ears that I liked, so whatevs, I really liked the one I used, so I used it. *le cough* I put the Chinese in there becAUSE I CAN.
Jayden Xiang-Delacroix
(Credit goes to Fliegen80s)
Name:
Jayden "Jay" Xiang-Delacroix
Age:
18
Gender:
Male
Race:
Rabbit Faunus
Weapon:
Jayden carries three separate guandao to fight with, which all combine to form a portable mortar that serves as long range artillery. Each are nearly identical, with a few differences between each; however, all are exceptionally light, but are extremely durable and can pack a huge punch due to the material used to make them. They are used individually, but in tandem in a sort of juggle that Jayden's spent years and long hours each day attempting to perfect. Each blade is tipped in jade. On occasion, Jayden may use each separately, inciting a different style for each.
Shājiāng - Mortar
The main one Jayden uses in casual combat or sparring. It's decorated with a numerous amount of gold cranes, though one distinct crane stretches along the blade with bright red on its forehead. Shajiang is the mortar version's stand, but contains pistons used to enhance the power of its wide arcs and sweeps. the entirety of its staff is a dark green color. At the end is a pommel used in Shajiang's attacks for greater impact. When used individually, Jayden elicits an elegant style and his attacks are more powerful sweeps than lunges. It provides the most impact out of each guandao and it's displayed in the weapon's graceful spins and arcs.
Chǔ - Pestel
A double bladed guandao with golden leaves and vines spread along the staff and blades of the weapon with its staff being a lighter pastel green color. Chu is one half of the mortar's barrel and part of its base. The propellers are located on opposite sides of each other on both axes (like axis) to provide the weapon more spin momentum. Jayden uses it in a acrobatic fashion, spinning and turning with the weapon in a mix of lunges and circular sweeps. It more often than not is used in an unpredictable way as it spins and can provide lethal cuts and slashes rather than a powerful impact.
Yǐ - Elixir
The last of the trio, Yi provides a heavy spear tip at the opposite end of the guandao's blade, decorated in a variety of rabbits that bounce along in golden trimming to wrap around the entirety of the weapon. A weapon meant to lunge, the impact of each lunge is affected by the piston located at the base of Yi's blade and spear that fire individually and are parallel to the length of the staff. When using Yi, Jayden is usually extremely aggressive in his movements and relentless in his quick jabs--the weapon itself is rather fast paced. Think of it acting as a glorified rapier in a fencing match. It's the other part of the mortar's barrel and base and contains the trigger mechanism to fire it. It's also a light pastel green color.
Yuèliàng Zhī Shàng - Over the Moon
The ranged version of Jayden's weapons, each guandao folds and shifts into each other to create the entirety of a portable mortar. It's rather skinny for a mortar, but incredibly long to accommodate the length of each staff. The mortar itself is fired by a switch near the bottom of the weapon that, when picked up can be fired in quick succession to release a missile one at a time. When more pressure is applied, via Jayden jumping on the trigger, it releases a flurry of missiles into the air that explode to rain down bouncing, grenade like bombs that each missile contains. The payload is much stronger when shot individually, but doesn't cover as large a range as when shot from the ground. The reload time of the weapon is just a tad slow. But Jayden can usually accomplish a high bounce while reloading, so it's ready to fire on the downward arc. It contains two handles for this purpose, one at the top for the bounce and one at the bottom for being held to fire like an actual gun.
Specialty:
The hard support, Jayden serves as suppression fire with the long range version of his weapon, since it doesn't provide much accuracy, but it's fast and can hurt if the rounds aren't avoided. In melee range, he's the pressure and still provides suppression for allies. Jayden is a relentless fighter and hits with as much force as he can muster, though it leaves much room for improvement in regards to his accuracy or precision. It could definitely be argued that his role isn't meant to deal any lasting damage, just open up points of others to do so. He provides opportunities for others and essentially positions the enemy the best way possible. He works best in tandem with another when he can provide additional support when coordinating his attacks.
Semblance: Yuèqiú De Tóngbàn - Lunar Companion
Conveying a soft, jade green aura, Jayden's semblance allows him the opportunity to perpetually enhance his allies in combat in an area around him. It slightly enhances speed, focus, and durability, as well as enhances his healing via physical contact when used. This all at the cost of Jayden's own well-being, as the aura draws from his own status. But the staple of his semblance is in Jayden's ability to control the gravity in the same area around him. This provides either more flexibility with his attacks or more power. It affects everyone in the area (and depending on what he wants, can affect him, too) and can be adjusted by Jayden himself to either increase or decrease to a certain amount (he's unable to literally crush someone or drop gravity into the negatives [is that even possibe?] altogether, but it aids him making things increasingly difficult for his opponents and exceptionally easy for allies). He usually uses the ability to add in juggling his weapons. In dire situations, Jayden can focus his semblance on a certain point, usually on one of his weapons to increase the damage and impact for a few attacks, usually to crack heavy defenses.
Personality:
A rather reserved individual, Jayden tends to avoid many social interactions just because he finds himself a tad awkward. He's the type of individual more inclined to open up to close friends than random strangers and it shows in the way he interacts with others. Conversations with him are very brisk and Jayden chooses his responses efficiently to make them go by faster, lest he talks with friends and in that case he doesn't mind lengthy conversations. It's hard for him to be truly comfortable, as he finds many situations unnerve him and incite a fight or flight instinct, in which he's usually more prone to walking away than engaging anyone or anything if it can be helped—regardless of whether or not they're hostile. That's not to say that Jayden is a coward, as he's often in the front lines of combat and is very much more in tune with himself in those situations. It's the social aspect that gets him; he doesn't much know how to interact with strangers, so he chooses not to most of the time. Aside from that, Jayden is often considered a loyal companion and a very selfless individual. He's not above sacrificing his time and well being for another person and often swamps himself with favors and things he has no real knowledge of for the sake of helping. However, being a fairly determined individual makes these situations a tad bit easier. Though, it can be a double edged sword or even masochistic on occasion, as Jayden sometimes doesn't understand the line between actually being helpful and being a tool for someone to use. Due to his past, it's hard to get that mindset out of him, as it's become a habit for Jayden to simply do what others ask of him. It doesn't help that he's a faunus either, causing more people to tend to look down on Jayden rather than hold him at an equal light. But, Jayden can often be slightly ignorant concerning such manners and is unable to discern whether an individual is being prejudice or otherwise. Helping people, though, is why his aspirations have turned toward becoming a hunter and, in doing so, a vanguard to the people. Even if those people don't find him human enough to be treated with the respect anyone deserves.
Color: Jade [#00a86b]
Emblem:
A trio of circles in a cog like orientation (not cogs themselves) encircled by a large, hollow circle. The bottom circle is large than the other two and is hollowed with a flame in its center.
Appearance:
Standing at a stark 6'2", Jayden is a towering individual even when you don't count his ears but he isn't imposing or intimidating in his stance. He seems more stalwart than aggressive and it's obvious in the way he carries himself. It is in part due to his physical build which is more bulky than it is lithe. Though there is an inherent nimbleness in the way he moves due to his leporine nature, especially in combat. Jayden's entire, physical being tends to hide how graceful and limber he's able to be, including flexible. Along with his stature, Jayden's staple features tend to focus around his angular face, feathery hair, and blue eyes. Jayden's long ears are slightly floppy and beige in color, as well as his large, fluffed tail. Jayden speaks with a soft, almost lazy baritone that matches the almost tired expression that's permanently etched itself onto Jayden's features. And that fact isn't entirely untrue, as Jayden often finds himself exhausted more often than not. Light green (from seafoam to pastel) tend to dominate his wardrobe's colors, though he tends to mix various darker reds and blacks, as well as the occasional pinks and purples. His clothes are usually form fitting, but comfortable, and regal in manner. He has a particular fondness for formal wear and suits, though isn't always as pretentious as one would think it'd be. The suits are often mismatched or Jayden occasionally wheres only a few pieces of it to produce a more casual look than one of arrogance. Of course, Jayden's features and the way he holds himself do tend to put him in a more regal stance than many, though it is very unlike his actual demeanor. There's a gracefulness to it, though as stated before, it's subtle and hidden under the various layers that add to Jayden's appearance. As a random note, he does have a tattoo of the moon and a stark white koi fish, with blue markings, that encircles the moon in rather traditional and authentic art style. And he wears a few nasty scars that line his back.
