I think you'll be happy to know that I'm making sir Eric Wormwood a secondary character.

For now, I can regale you with my main's name: Rogart Hendrickson.

And since we're choosing missions, I task Eric to hit the Reactor, and Rogart for the frontline battles in the Hammer.

@Prisk Ooh, important question: while OOC we are choosing our character's missions, IC, do they have the same choice, or would they be assigned to a particular task?

I ask because I'm leaning towards Reactor, but if Thael had a choice he'd go Hammer, so I'm wondering if he might just end up assigned to Reactor and have to deal with it.

@Ozerath

It's the choice you think your character would go with! You can change it at any time before the IC, and in your first post. It's only when you have started an event that it might be difficult to switch, but it's not impossible. You are by no means 'locked' into an event.

Rogart Hendrickson
23 June 23rd 6' 9" Guardian


◆ A P P E A R A N C E
Rogart's huge stature was a sight during his days as a student in the Academy. With shoulders broader than most men were wide, and arms built like tanks, Rogart easily dominated the strength department. He has a head of light brown hair, always maintained at a short buzzcut of near military standard. He also has a full beard, into which is braided a single line of beads. Each oblong, beige bead has the name of a parent engraved on it, and at the end is a smaller, round, sky blue bead with Eric's name on it. His garb often consists of a tank top underneath a plain hoodie or jacket, blue jeans and combat boots. When out in combat, this attire changes to a long sleeved shirt underneath padded combat armour, which then lies underneath a woolen jacket with a fur-lined high collar. Cargo pants, black fingerless gloves and combat boots complete the look.


◆ I D E O L O G Y
Rogart is simple. Rogart is nice. Rogart does nice things and doesn't expect anything in return. Rogart understands that people will most often view him as stupid because of his massive stature. Rogart therefore continues to act the part for the greatest lies are the ones told every day without fail.

Rogart knows the world is a shitty place, and he also knows that without brave men and women like the Guardians and the military keeping the Modrem at bay. Rogart understands this, and cares for his friends the same way he treats family, with compassion, respect, unrivalled loyalty, honesty and understanding.

Rogart, in gatherings, is often the silent type, preferring to grace social events or gatherings with friends with his huge, memorable size, moreso than words, of which he has little. But his words are often the products of a life spent thinking, and as a result what he says is usually good. Usually.

Rogart understands that there is a higher power...somewhere in the sky. Somewhere, where the dead watch from above, where there is no war, only peace and serenity. He longs to see this place, but for now is contained to the physical. Through communing with his spirits, Rogart seeks to understand what lies beyond the physical veil, contrasting much with his stature.


◆ B A C K G R O U N D
Rogart was born in Cetra, like most of the Oakridge alumni. But his upbringing was more unique than most.

Born in a particularly seedy part of Cetra's capital, Rogart learned from a young age that where he lived, size was everything. The bigger and stronger you were, the more people respected you. It didn't help that his parents were both poor, and dear ol' dad perished young. His parents were descendants of mountaineering race of people from Anatolia, who had been driven out by aggressive Mordrem expansion. Their people, gathered into a big group, decided to brave the Dark Zone's rabid expanse and make for the safer zone of Cetra's uninfected areas. Most never made it. Rogart's parents, among others, were only part of the small group of survivors that made it out alive.

The refugees soon integrated themselves within Cetran society; those infected by Stigma were swiftly quarantined and treated, while the healthy were housed within the poorer areas while they looked for work. Such was life for Rogart and many others of his kind. He grew up amidst the general filth, and didn't learn how to read until he was six. Small in stature when he was young, Rogart suffered amongst the bullies in the public school he went to, and grew a quiet exterior as a result.

When puberty and adulthood hit him, he tripled in size, gaining more height and bulk than he cared to admit. His mother, by then an elderly lady, decided to do the best thing she could think of: enrolling him into Oakridge. The academy would clothe, feed and take care of him, so her own life would be easier. Rogart understood her mother's decision to send him away, and went with a heavy heart, for he knew that once he left, she would wither away until nothing remained.

It wasn't a year into his time at Oakridge that he received a letter. His mother, the last of his family, had passed away of a broken heart.

He wept for many nights after that, and slowly grew distraught with each passing day. Many of his peers noticed the change in the budding young man, and it wasn't long before he was pulled aside and given counselling.

It was in this dark, sullen period of his life, that he met the youngster called Eric Wormwood.

Unlike Rogart, Eric still had family. But he too knew the pain of loss: his home village at the outskirts of the capital had suffered a catastrophic attack by Mordrem, and he'd lost a close childhood friend. This had happened when he was very young, and he'd stayed within Cetra's capital ever since. Mourning, for him, had long overstayed its welcome, and he'd dedicated every ounce of his being to excel for his lost friend.

Through him, Rogart began to understand and cope with his loss the same way his newfound friend did: he sucked it up and carried on, not disappointing the spirits of his parents and doing everything for their honour.

Soon, Rogart became one of the top physical candidates within the Academy; what he lacked in speed and agility, he made up for in raw, brute strength, owed partially to his bulk, and the other part to the training he underwent every day. Eric tested his reflexes and honed them to a fine point, and where he lacked speed, he made up for in bulk. By the time of his graduation, he was easily the biggest student of his entire cohort. He and Eric were inseparable, except when they joined into the WARG and were placed into separate teams.

Now, Rogart is a budding young soldier, looking for his first taste of combat, albeit a little apprehensively, and is keen to make new friends and forge lasting relationships.


◆ W A R F A R E
Rogart uses a big ol' warhammer, powered by magitek to have two separate and distinct modes. The first is, of course, a warhammer, big, bulky and heavy, able to be held in two hands for strong smash attacks but slow to use. The second is activated when Rogart twists the lower handgrip of the hammer. It extends and the grip releases from the outer housing, pulling forth a shorter, lighter mace, as the hammer head and upper grip flatten and transform into a light, firm shield.
◇ Geb [Earth] [+Shell] [+Protect] [+Lancet] [+Empower]
- Rogart himself is a mountain of human flesh, and so is his main spirit. The Mountain manifests as rocks that grow and cover his entire form, slowing his movement while bulking up his defense along with growing his metaphysical form. Used in conjunction with his shield, it turns Rogart into an almost literal mountain, able to soak up extreme amounts of damage while protecting his allies. This also drains his stamina while he has it active, and as such he uses it sparingly.

◇ Thor [Lightning] [-Imperil]
- Thor is Rogart's main passive offense spirit. Simply being nothing more than a lightning spirit, it inhabits his warhammer and sparks to life whenever he calls upon it. When an enemy is struck with Thor active, the enemy suffers a severe electric shock, and takes more damage from magic attacks as a result. Like the Mountain, Thor can be turned on or off at Rogart's command. However, unlike the Mountain, Thor can be left on without drain to his stamina.

◇ Sting [Holy] [-Terror] [-Pain] [-Imperil] [-Poison]
- Much like the name suggests, Sting is a small holy spirit, akin to a bee or a hornet in size. However, its effects are not to be laughed at. When Sting is summoned and attacks an enemy, they are injected with a toxin that not only causes excrutiating pain with the slightest movement, it debilitates the enemy and causes them to take increased damage from all sources. Rogart often uses this spirit in conjunction with his teammates to supplement their more combat oriented spirits and/or abilities.

◇ Castiel [Holy] [+Frenzy] [+Leech] [+Gleam] [+Imperil] [+Pain]
- Castiel is a force of judgement contained within Rogart, and when he calls for aid in desparate times, he provides. Castiel empowers Rogart's basic attacks with a fury unlike any other, each strike acting like a miniature explosion of sheer kinetic force. Be it from his hammer, mace, shield or even his fists and feet, Rogart's every attack is powered up beyond measure. But in return for this increased strength and power to overwhelm his enemies, he takes increased damage from pretty much all sources. Abandoning all pretense of defense to attack head on does result in that, after all.

Idea: Put magnets or something in Thael's spear so he can retrieve it. Or a grappling device of some kind. Or can I give him enough air spirits to pull the thing back to him? Poor kid's best attack involves throwing away his weapon.

To those of you building secondary characters in the character tab: let me know when you want me to take a look at them! I think it’s only @ZB1996 at this point. But for future reference.

@Vox added a trivia section to Jack. It’s a nifty thing for characters that already know each other and such. Feel free to add one for yourself, but it’s not a requirement.

@Ozerath
Put a grappling device in there, or some kind of chain. Then it's a trick weapon!

@DJAtomika
The Gentle Giant is one of my favorite tropes! Everything looks good, but I think you meant for Imperil on ’Thor’ to apply to the enemy, so put minus (-) there instead.

The guy in the picture, he is the one that played The Mountain in Game of Thrones, is it not? Is he actually 6’9” or is that what you came up with?

Also, let me know what the name of the capital of Cetra is and where you want it to be.

As for Eric...

I’ll add Willowholm the next time I edit the map.
Eric’s weapon is similar to the Threaded Cane in Bloodborne! I love it.
On the spirits, could you change the elemental damage types into the default character sheet color?
On Ruinga; there currently is no ’electricity’ element. Did you mean Lightning?
On Gladio, are you sure that those negative conditons should apply to Eric?

Other than that, everything looks a-ok!

@Prisk I just checked his Wikipedia page and yes, he is exactly six foot nine.

Also I've made all the edits you said. I didn't know what the + and - next to the names meant so I just guessed. XD

Hmm. The capital of Cetra shall be called Atrias. I actually had an idea regarding Cetra's capital so I'll pm it to you in a bit.

Put in a grappling function for Thael's spear.

Next I'm going to work on a Trivia section. I also want to establish to relationships with the rest of the cast, so hit me up if you want your char to be friends with Goldie.

I'm also going to rework his background a bit; the way things are, his goals are conflicting with mine. I want to send him on Eidolon or Reactor, he wants to go with Hammer. Plus, I'm relying on a character that isn't mine, which is not the best idea.

My secondary character is done. I hope it's sufficient. I'm going to have Ezra go for on Doral Recruits mission, while Jaina will go to the Nexus Reactor mission.
