THE MOON



There was a person sitting at a desk, head-in-hand, staring absently at the computer screen before them. This person could have been any person, any lifelong dreamer kicked to the curb by reality. It could have been you, or it could have been me.

This person, in particular, was a young man, hopelessly trying to piece his dreams together. Between unfortunate chance, stinted obligations and wondering how he would pay that month's bills, he longingly waited for a chance to be happy, yet somehow knew that that chance would never come. He clicked off the screen, brought his hands up and rubbed his eyes, collapsing back against the old chair in which he sat.

A brilliant light exploded in the room soundlessly. The man tiredly turned his head, not even comprehending the impossibility of such a thing. In the center of the room, a ball of strange, palpable, thick light floated before him, gold in color, so radiant it dwarfed even the sun's beauty.

What the fuck? The young man shielded his eyes against the orb as he tried to understand it. What is this thing? A ghost? He began to panic, nearly tripping in his effort to rise from his chair. Some kind of bomb!? Am I going to die!?

The man heard a chuckle, then. But it didn't seem like a sound. It seemed to be coming from within him.

You're fine, little light. You're not in danger.


It was a woman's voice, coming from in his head. Was it the orb?

"I..." the man began, before regaining his composure. The orb was calming, somehow, despite its impossibility. "I'm okay. Sorry. But...what are you?" This is very obviously a dream.

This is not a dream. If it's easier for you, you don't have to speak. I can read your thoughts.


The man flushed. Oh. Like, all of my thoughts?

The important ones. Don't worry, I'm not judgemental. Anyway, what I am is a being, just like you, but from a different world.


The man shook his head. This is too strange, he thought. It sounds like something in an anime.

"Hey, why did you call me 'little light'?" The man asked.

It's what I saw in your aura. A little light, but bright, and full of potential.


"Oh. So, why are you here? Have we finally made contact with alien life?"

Do I look like an alien to you? Don't answer that. I'm here because we need people like you to save our world.


It was the man's turn to chuckle. "Oh, sweet. I've always wanted to do something like that. So what's the plan?"

I guess, in terms you would understand...you have to pick a Class.


The notions of his favorite kind of video games rushed into the man's head. "Like, a Class from an RPG? Is there a list? How does that even work?"

No, there is no list. It can be anything you like. Our race's energy can be imprinted on to your race's bodies and manifest in different thoughtforms, which is why we're picking this world. But there are limits to our powers, so it needs to be balanced. Like...any good video game.


The man nodded. "Right. Okay, cool." He turned inward, considering his own training, and his own personality. "Um, I pick Sundancer. Is that okay?"

Sure. What's a Sundancer?


"Lemme see...a really fast offensive class. It uses swords and Light magic."

Speed, power and magic? I can't manage all that at once, it's too powerful.


"Right. So maybe it needs sunlight to use abilities instead of MP, and its really weak without it." The orb seemed to think for a moment.

Okay. I can do that. Are you ready to go?


"Sweet! Where are we going?" Even if this is a dream, I'm gonna enjoy it.

We're going to the Moon.

Let me know if this seems a little bit like overkill. Would rather err on being too strong than too weak.

Name: Charlie MonVeinu

Age: 19

Gender: Male

General Appearance: Charlie stands at 5'6 with a thin build and paling skin. His eyes are a soft brown to match his hair of a similar color. His jawline is defined and his face angular. Bags under his eyes and a slightly hooked nose, he has a sort of sharp look to him. Slightly overgrown nails and hair down to his neck leave him looking a bit ragged, though he keeps himself well groomed. Often wearing lazy clothing in the ways of jeans and big sweaters, he seems the type to always be tired yet never sleep. His shoes are the most colorful thing on his person, being bright red converse.

Orb Color: Greyish green

Class: SPIRIT ARCHER: A class centered on extra long to long ranged fighting. It centers on creating arrows of different applications and firing them with astounding power generated from the soul rather than the body. Agile while moving, though must be stationary to fire. A class that needs to control their pace in battle. They use no physical equipment and have a large mana pool by necessity.

Class Appearance: A figure clad all in black they wear slightly baggy clothes designed to be light and stay out of the way while also not clinging to the skin. Armor is made of leather at the best times, mainly in the chest area and the appendages. Black chains wrap around the shoulders and around the waist, with small skull ornaments dressing it. A ragged black cloak is draped over the wearers shoulders and easily unclips at the neck.

Skills: The innate ability to summon their spiritual great-bow, and the ability to craft basic explosive mana arrows. Being a large and extra long ranged weapon, it is slow, takes stillness to fire, and packs a punch.

Cross Skills: Skills activated with a partner or partners, either passive bonuses or activated abilities. Locked until discovered.

Passive: "Personal artillery" The user is able to double their fire rate for an extended period of time, and half their shots are mana-free.
[LOCKED]

Limit Break: "Banshee rain" The skulls adorning the wearer cease to be useless and come to life. The user is rooted in place with a mana shield surrounding them, while the skulls let loose a torrential downpour of mid-ranged explosive and slowing arrows. The power and time this ability lasts is dependent on the users mana pool.
[LOCKED]

Inventory: A small notebook and pencil.




Name: Sofie Anders

Age: 20

Gender: Female

General Appearance: Sofie is a short and slightly heavyset girl with hair dyes blue and freckles. Her eyes are large, almond shaped and cool blue. Her skin is a tad bit sun brushed. She stands at 5'2 at most. Her freckles also speckle her shoulders and legs. She is often seen wearing a hat over her pixie cut, as well as comfy yet stylish clothing. She likes floral patterns. Their is a tattoo of a curled up robin on her left shoulder. She is missing the top half of her left pinkie finger.

Orb Color: Cotton candy blue

Class: MUSE: A class that deals in both supporting it's allies and debilitating their enemies. Using sound based attacks and spells, they can shift the flow of battle quite well. Not entirely useful on their lonesome, they are a cog in the machine. Sometimes the one that makes it move. Another class with a large mana pool out of need.

Class Appearance: Wearing a flowing and simplistic white dress, those of this class seem to literally radiate. Sometimes seen with a laurel of gold on their heads, they are made to seem very angelic and very "good" Long silken white gloves stretch from the users fingers to above their elbows. Golden anklets sit above the simple white slippers on the wearers feet.

Skills: Enrich: The user sings a melody, which raises the attack speed and power of their allies within their aoe. It can also heal allies, if they stay still and do nothing. It's healing does effect the user.

Cross Skills: Duet: This ability changes no matter who it is used with. A song is crafted in an instant and sung to the partner, which can have a large range of powerful effects, whether they are extremely empowering or surprisingly destructive.
[LOCKED]

Limit Break: Siren: A mournful ballad is sung, drawing all enemies near then stunning them, after the song ends and the stun wears off, all enemies who were effected receive the poison, slow, cursed, blinded, and confused debuffs. While also being pushed back.
[LOCKED]

Inventory: A gold harp, a pack of bubblegum.

@Cuccoruler Accepted.

@deadpixel101@sMoKe Here's my own sheet, sorry for the delay - if you'd like to alter yours at all, go right ahead and then post it in CHAR.



Name: Theo Ambrose

Age: 20

Gender: Male

General Appearance: Theo is a young man of average height, barely topping 6', and fairly thin of build. He has some visible muscle mass, but nothing more than the results of manual labor and high school sports. His hair is dark brown, almost black, and is worn in long locks framing his face. His eyes are a dull hazel, and his skin is slightly tanned.

Orb Color: White-gold.

Class: Sundancer - A primarily offensive class specializing in lightning-fast, fluid strikes with a sword augmented by Light-attribute magic. Strong in close or medium range, but requires sunlight to be effective.

Class Appearance: In the other world, Theo wears long, flowing garments of white, with long sleeves and voluminous pants. He wears very light steel plating in the form of a cuirass, bracers, greaves and tassets, though they offer little protection. In time, he may condition his body to wear medium armor, with more protection and coverage, though his armor will always retain the bright, radiant shine of the sun. A long curved sword rests on his hip, one which may be wielded in one or two hands.

Skills:
  • Shine (Passive) - The Sundancer's blade seems quicker, his armor seems lighter, when illumined by the Light. Improves speed when in sunlight.
  • Flash - The Sundancer's armor flashes like a mirror, blinding close foes, and drawing the attention of others.


Cross Skills:
[LOCKED]

Limit Break:
[LOCKED]

Inventory:
  • Ray - A type of sword used by apprentice Sundancers. It bears a fourty-two inch curved blade, with a long hilt for one or two hands to grip decorated with a simple sunburst on the guard.
  • Apprentice Armor - Armor for apprentice Sundancers. Low in protection, but very light.
  • Potion(5) - Heals small wounds.
  • Tent(2) - Shelter and food for four people. Completely restores users after sleep. Consumed after one use.

@Cuccoruler Okay, listen here: I hate parody. The nature of this tale is going to be very dark, believe it or not. That being said, your characters have great potential, if you do them right. Get ready for serious themes and a sort of character deconstruction, and if you can do that, you're accepted. That sound okay?

Don't worry I will take it seriously besides Rosa is actually rather dark atleast once she goes into berserker mode.

Also if Lance does seem to get too silly I'm fine with having him killed to darken the mood again if needed

Sagittarius The Archer

Member Seen 8 yrs ago

Name: Gaius Rembrant

Age: 21

Gender: M

General Appearance:

Gaius looks far younger than he should.

Orb Color: Charcoal Grey/Black

Class: Shadow Vanguard - A highly speed-based class that that gains increasing stacks of "Momentum" while moving in the shadows. Uses shields, which deals increasingly more shadow damage depending on the amount of momentum.

Class Appearance: Gaius has a simple, completely black outfit similar to ninja garb, his only armor being a sheen-less grey metal breastplate with matching bracers. His black round shield is about 2 1/2 feet wide.

Skills:
Shadow Force (Passive) - While moving in darkness, the Shadow Vanguard gains Momentum. Momentum increases speed at the cost of control, and is expended on most attacks to add damage. Momentum decays while in light, and completely empties out when stopped.

Night Walk - The Shadow Vanguard creates a path of darkness that ignores the normal lighting.

Shield Bash - The Shadow Vanguard expends all Momentum to deal shadow damage in a cone, with the most damage being dealt to the initial target and sharply decreasing over distance.

Cross Skills:
Transfer - Passes on Momentum to an ally. (If they do not have Shadow Force, Momentum will not increase while moving in shadows.)
[LOCKED]

Limit Break:
Infinite Shadows - By forcing all of the energy--light and matter--out of an area, it becomes a space of absolute darkness, or a perfect vacuum. Moving through this, the Shadow Vanguard can instantly gain infinite momentum for an infinitely short amount of time. During that instant, the outside of the user's body is eaten away as the void attempts to create equilibrium. Along with eating away the user, the light, originally forced out, snaps back in and warps the space around it.

It'd look something like this.

[LOCKED]

Inventory:
Food - Provides a large amount of healing over time.
Magic Trapdoor - Permanently creates a small base that acts as a safe area and storage. Can only be opened by the creator and allies, and cannot be picked up once placed.

Wait, wait, wait. Planet killer/mountain busters are not overkill? Just making sure here, even if they are locked powers.
