Piledriver does more damage to large Dissolutions because the knockback effect doesn’t apply (too fat to be moved), so it would ‘penetrate’ instead of knock back. That’s also why, originally, it was going to do 350% damage to human-sized targets that get pincered. 300% to account for how they’re pretty much in the same situations as structures/large Dissolutions, and an extra 50% because they’re smaller and fleshier, meaning relatively more surface area to messed up.

Would Heavy Arms scale with level? Like, at Lvl 1, it’d be an average lvl 1 weapon? Or is she pretty much just going to be reliant on base stats?

Height:

Weight:

Eye Color:
Blue

Name:
Erika Mitsuki

Age:
15

History:
Erika comes from a long line of successful Deep Ground online players. Each of them has made their own legacy throughout the generations and hailed for their skill in combat. Though not every family member has chosen alliance with them in the past, the Mitsuki family has, for the most part, fought for the White King. Even her parents, who were a berserker and a rogue, met whilst fighting for the white king at the time and in doing so earned themselves a comfy upper middle class living. A consistency that has been going on for generations with mild influxes now and again when someone in her family specifically achieves a steep victory. Not uncommon, and quite to be expected from a Mitsuki these days. Her family, all in all, is and was highly regarded in Deep Ground. Thus, when Erika was given the game for her birthday, she quickly felt herself pressured into playing and to join the white king's guild to continue the legacy of their great achievements.
But rather than diving headfirst into the game like her brother Hito had, she put it on the backburner in favor of reading, working, studying, etc--much to the gray hairs of her parents. She barely played the game for two years until recently, when her concerned brother and father sat her down and told her the importance of playing the game. After much disdain, she at last picked it up and began to play it; if not only for the sake of her family. She attends Purple crown academy but remains mostly a loner, favoring books to people and manages to retain mostly straight A's.

Personality:
Erika is a very shy girl, only really talking once someone has approached her, leaving her with basically no friends. She is lazy when it comes to social events, trying to make friends, or playing Deep Ground; and chooses to mostly focus on studying thing in school. She's the type of person that the more you try to pressure into something, the more she wants to steer clear of it. She often finds herself with a lot of weight on her shoulders and often dodging it to disappear in town for a few hours. Erika loves reading romance novels and fantasizes about being swept off her feet even though she's self conscious enough to know that it's just "A stupid fairytale that will never happen." She lack in self confidence and ambition; much to her family's frustrations.

Avatar Level (Initial):

Avatar Guild:
Undecided

Avatar Abilities:
Fashionably Late - Azga can choose to sit out of a battle for as long as he wishes, and upon deciding to enter the battlefield the enemy is given a temporary paralysis status curse that his fighting comrades can take advantage of. Can only be used once per battle.

Cat Nap - Azga can select one player in a battle to put to sleep for the rest of the battle. Unfortunately, that status is reflected onto him as well. This leaves Azga unable to help his comrades and more vulnerable, but it also removes a player from the battle and leaves them open for attack as well.

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E - A Quick Time Event in which the outcome is determined literally by how much his comrades applaud him. Enables a cut scene unique to the fighting situation and the turnout is variable. At best, enemies are laden with a myriad of status ailments while any placed on his comrades are removed (including poison, sleep, paralyzed, stone, confusion, etc). At it's lowest, it backfires miserably with many status ailments placed on his own comrades that he must then work to undo for the rest of the battle. Can only be used once every 72 hours real time.

Avatar Feats:
Resurrection: Magic skill that lets you revive a dead ally after a five-second casting time. Has a ten-minute cooldown.

Other:
Erika uses Azga as an alter ego to be exactly what she wishes she COULD be; amazing. As Azga she completely changes up her personality and attitude to be a snarky, sassy, confident mage who doesn't need anybody to make him feel important or happy. She turns into a complete show off and loves it. Her affection for the game is growing since it allows her to be... well, anything but herself.

I'm surprised that she managed to get to level three with her abilities, but whatever. Looks good to me. @TheWindel? Thoughts? Comments?

<Snipped quote by Lucius Cypher>

To be honest, I would have started her at level one if it weren't for the rule that everyone must start at level 3 ^^;;;
Edit: Also I figured that with the usual witch-doctor healing/cursing factors that these were just embellishments. did I misunderstand?

*was not aware of this either xD*

@ReaptheMusic

Looks good. All I would suggest though is that his Cat Nap ability can only be activated during a battle and not at the immediate start of it, since he's rendering both himself and a Player unable to move for the full remainder of said battle. He should wait to at least his third turn before that ability is ready to use.

Other than that, accepted. Please place him/her into the Character Tab.

<Snipped quote by ReaptheMusic>

You don't have to start at level three, that's just the highest you can start at. And yeah, the witch doctor thing is just flavor text and a basic guideline of how they function. By no means do you actually have to be a witchy doctor thematically.

<Snipped quote by ReaptheMusic>

The rule is that the maximum Level people can start at is Level 3. You can make Level 1 and Level 2 characters.

@Diggerton
1. I want to see a cool down level for your Fiery Sword.
2. Nerf the cool down to your portal to a minute. Remember: One Post = One Round = One Minute.

Clear: 30 second cool down.

2. Done. Where was this rule established? I'm pretty sure that I didn't see that in the OP, so it might be handy to slip it into the rules if I'm not just missing it.

Information

Deep Ground Online is, in its most basic form and components, an indirect fighting game. The environment of Deep Ground Online is a massive city with spanning levels and wide open complexes for players to utilize. Labeled as “Faded City”, there are five main districts each respectively reserved for each faction. Guilds may conquer other districts to further grow in power and strength. Furthermore, one round (Post) of a combat is one minute total. This round doesn't end until all the combatants go, so the actions of two, three, or even ten fighters will all happen in one-minute, after each of them post. Collab battles if you can, but keep in mind the one-round/one-minute rule.
