Just to be sure, is Reiko ok as well, or do I have to edit anything on her CS?

@Skyswimsky

She is okay the way it is I just want to give you some input in terms of background/fluff/lore to keep it coherent and make sure you understand it. Since getting some stuff together took me shorter than I thought, meaning I still have some time before having to go, I can also just do it right now.

You said she has a tad of vampire-blood left inside her to activate the family relic/seed. Now, she (and every other CS that passes down seeds as I have quickly scanned over) and her clan/family can believe that as much as they want but the truth is, it's not like that. What the Seed does, as I said multiply times, is simply serve as a very powerful mana-efficient catalyst to cast a magical spell, True Magic.

The Seeds itself are not unique from each other in any way, the shapes they take depend on the individual. Their feelings, their believes, their mood and so on at the moment they take it in. It's tailored to everybody individually.

Now, because of this, it could very well be that 'Because Reiko/her family thinks this particular Seed is THEIR family relic it bestows THIS power upon them.' that the Yggdrasil Seed is unique for her. Meaning if she had two Seeds in front of her - with one being the family relic - the other gives her completely different powers because of the sole reason of what she believes in. Does that sit well with you?

While I am at it. I said the power of a Seed is activated by eating it. Of course, that does imply to get said Seed the Einherjar would need to die, yeah go figure. Then again Seed's aren't THAT rare that a well-established family wouldn't have multiple of them, though there has never been a succesful report of an Einherjar wielding two Seeds.

@Skyswimsky

It's ok by me. I'll get you a less light version of her background later, or possible tomorrow, other than that, I don't have any problem with anything else you said.

@TheWindel Your character is accepted, you can move her over.

@LokiLeo789 Badministrator <3 My favourite one is the Zed one, all the edge! If only he would still do stuff :C
Okay, I gotta ask, just to make sure. English not being my first language, is he literally a mute or is it just a figure of speech? I always look forward seeing how such characters express themselves!

Now, personality, mute or not, and history look good to me. It becomes apparent enough you put enough thought into that that anything I could even come up would just be nitpicking.

For his runemagic, there are two things I have to clear up:
1. Is there some sort of cooldown or something when he changes from one form to another? I mean, could he easily go monkey into blind-spot into bear into a fatal strike, rinse-and-repeat? I'm not saying not having a "period of waiting time switching between forms" would be broken or anything, I just want to clear it up. Also, while I am at it, just to make sure, can he channel multiple stances at once?
2. I think we're both clear on this, but I still gotta bring it up. His Turtle Power is by no means makes him outright invincible for a limited number of hits against anything.

There are no problems with his seed either.

---

I get to the other two, and KoL, in a bit, shops close at 8 PM where I live so I gotta go now or else I'll be too hungry to do anything this evening ^~^

Badministor my man! Especially the Kha'zix one. I really do hope he comes back.

Think I accidentally added that part in there. He was originally supposed to be a sound based mage, and I thought it would be ironic, but I scrapped it. He's not mute. Sorry about the confusion, that was me.

As for his 'Ways', yes they do have cool downs, I should have added it, but I didn't think about it till now. I'd like to say thats its abit of both. He can instantly switch between forms, but can get over worked very quickly by doing so, since it boosts his physical capabilities greatly. But, if her paces himself, and allows for downtime between each form, he will experience little fatigue. Its kinda like being a sprinter and a cross country runner.

And no, Turle does not make him invincible for those few moments, a powerful enough attack can break through it.

@KoL You're accepted.

@LokiLeo789 Alright, you're good to go. Accepted.

@Barioth We already talked about sound-wave based attack via PM but I just want to mention it again, as a certain someone gave me some smack, the reason I declined a "powerful attack at the speed of sound" is not because of the speed it travels but rather because of the wide area it covers, making it high impossible to dodge, not to mention defend against it.

Now, him being a "coward" but then going to such great lengths to make "something" out of himself despite all the hatred he got(instead of just giving up) sounds a bit contradictionary to me but that might just be me nitpicking. So no problems there.

His Seed is good too. It's a powerful defense tool, maybe too powerful in the future, but we fix it when we get there. Overall the character is solid enough and accepted.

@WanderingSpirit
When I skimmed over your sheet earlier I had to grin like an idiot. You don't happen to be an application developer too? Your magic is literally the kind of magic I had planned on an NPC BUT the reason I haven't put anything in that regards yet(Not that I would have mentioned much about their powers until reveal anyways) is to not get in the way of any players.

Anyways, to move on. Does he actually own a dog?! The Skolkovo family can think of themselves as the greatest of all magi-science families there is, a lot of (great) clans think of themselves like that, but that doesn't mean they are - not that it's that easy to measure anyways. And while they might have smaller clans under their hand you might not realize the magnitude of how much some magician bloodlines hate science-magic people, it wouldn't be wrong to say that the greatness of the Soklovo family is hindered a lot through shady problems, you catch my drift? As long as you're aware of that we're solid.

Now, onto his Runecraft, it's very ambitious and just describes his overall style without any examples outside of the notes which other Runecraft could do too. It's okay the way it is, though, as far as I understand he is basically using his 'programming knowledge' to have an easier time creating runes up? It's not really THAT much different from what others also do considering the 'basics' of a Rune, to an extent. I'm willing to give it an okay the way it is but keep in mind I keep a close eye on what you do ICly.

Now, for his Yggdrasil Seed, while in theory it's completely okay and I have no problem with it I do wanna talk with my unofficial co. GM before that. The thing is, as harmless as such "sight" may seem, it gives out A LOT of information and have the possibility to make my shitty and predictable twists even more worse and predictable! But I don't wanna deny you the sight just because of that. Still, I get back to you once I had words with my lazy co. GM.

@Lunaeria
swd3e2 is one of my favourite artists! For her personality, calling her strange, does indeed sum it up well. Nothing wrong with history either. Magic is good to go too. Her Yggdrasil Seed is very chuuni true to the roots of what I envisioned, which I really like. The ability itself is fine and stuff can always easily be balanced with mana consumption/feeling exhausted. Oh and the joy I shall have in breaking her, making the Seed useless anyways! She is accepted.

Overall I am quite happy with how things are turning out right now. I get the feeling we're all decent enough roleplayers that there won't be any/too much bitchfighting going on when I have to swing around the GM-Hammer of nerfing stuff in terms of power! Hence me leeway I'm giving some people, just in case anyone is wondering.

Closing the RP now, as far as I am aware in regards to people who haven't said a word yet but are working on a character are @Fish Of Oblivion, @ERode and @The ghost in black. Checking over my Interest Check I wonder what happened to @tatszico?

I'm interested. I love a well-written world, with an interesting plot. Also,
TROPES!
MORE TROPES!
TROPES!

Anywho, I'll work on a CS, and come with any questions I have.

@Skyswimsky
Yeah, I understand I'll be careful with the offensive technique in the future. I really don't intend to use it that much, but if you ever want me to change it, that's cool by me.

I also reworded part of the history. I intended the setting thing out on his own more as him escaping his old life and running away. There's more there but that was what it was supposed to be. He is also aware of his own cowardice to some extent and wants to change it but really lacks the sort of self-discipline to face things head on.

The seed thing is fine with me, If I ever get too crazy with it, put me in my place :)

I have a few questions regarding Ragnarok and the setting:

1. At the start of the RP are we already a part of the competition or do we still have to join?
2. How does one join Ragnarok officially?
3. Is the competition a free-for-all or are there actually scheduled matches?

1. You will already be part of it.
2. You either get an invitation send(Like a lot of big houses do) or you go to some registration-kind-of-place that is managed by The Voice of Change and some henchmen, this time in New Sealand.
3. It's a free-for-all. More specifics on that once the RP starts/intro post thou.

@Skyswimsky
When can we expect this to begin?

<Snipped quote by Crimson Raven>

---feels immensely stupid---

I guess I got ahead of myself there. Sorry.

Eh-hem lets try this again.

Is there room for one more?

@LokiLeo789 I'm looking for something like Friday/the weekend. Maybe earlier if people are swift and I have the time for it. I'm not going to wait too long on strugglers if that's what you're afraid of.
@WanderingSpiritYour eyes have to wait until tomorrow. I didn't get to speak with my GM as I was busy myself(tuesday is my busy day)
@Crimson RavenI wasn't being sarcastic... you can still put up a sheet if you want to.

Personality: Warm and vivacious, Naoko Bushiro is a twenty-year old woman who likes to care for flowers and thinks that water is just as delicious as pop if you work hard before drinking it. Though she sometimes gets moody if things get too difficult, she’s a reliable individual who always manages to grin and bear it before she stumbles and crumbles. After all, she’s young, she’s got a job, and there’s no way in hell she’s going to let something like a battle to the death between mages stop her from fulfilling her dream of travelling all around the world. For Naoko, it isn’t a battle to grant her wish. It’s a battle to stay alive until she can give up.

Brief History: The Bushiro family didn’t really want to get involved to begin with. Ragnarok was too heavy of a weight to put on a clan of mages as insignificant as themselves, after all. But, regardless of whether or not the family wanted to, the talent that Naoko had as a magician couldn’t be ignored. As a precocious child, she had mastered the basics by the time she was seven years old, and when she was ten, her skills caught the eyes of a more influential clan within Japan. They were having difficulty finding a suitable heir, and once the existence of an insignificant family with a significant daughter was made known, Naoko found herself engaged to their son by the age of 13.

That sorta sucked. As a matter of fact, she really didn’t like that. She didn’t like that so much that, while puberty was still making her do stupid things, a particularly melodramatic Naoko made the painfully retarded decision of finding a foggy old Einherjar, asking him for his Seed, and then eating that thing at his deathbed. Death or freedom, that’s what Naoko thought.

Turned out she just got lucky, and didn’t just die horrifically. Also turned out that she became superhuman. And, as a result, she could just tell all of them to fuck off, because Naoko could live her own life now, being the physically overpowering, near-immortal existence she was. She graduated from high school with flying colors, got an internship at some foreign place, and soon, Naoko was on the highway to a successful, international life.

Then she got drunk one night and found out the next morning that she signed a magical contract to fight for a certain family during Ragnarok, which just so happened to be occurring in the town she lived in.

And it also turned out that the company she got an internship from didn’t actually exist.

Fuck.

Magic: For Naoko, the basics are the best…and are also the only ones she really learned, because after becoming an Einherjar, she sorta didn’t care any more about magical training. After all, she didn’t die even if a truck hit her, and she could run faster than Usain Bolt, so really, there was no REAL point in learning super fancy spells. For that reason, this silver-haired girl just wears a ring, with dozens of simple spells inscribed on the inside. That silver ring is her spellbook, containing magic arrows, barriers, physical enhancement, and her personal favorite, FIRE BOLTUUU.

Yggdrasil Seed: Naoko’s Yggdrasil Seed manifested itself in a literally unbreakable cane that can be used both for whacking baddies in the head and for looking fashionable in the bloody British place that is New Sealand. Simple is best, after all.

Magical Girl Moonlit Sonata makes her dashing debut~!

Weeb shit aside, are apps still open, or am I not enough of a cool kid?

@ERode Accepted. As always, 'unbreakable' only exists until it breaks :3c.

@WanderingSpirit Not being under ALL OF THE TIME-PRESSURE, I gave your Seed a read over and I still have some questions/have to make some corrections: Can your dude see Qnd? Cuz you didn't say anything about that. Also, having fleshed out some more stuff yesterday because reasons I gotta correct you on some things. The cycle between Mana and Ether is like a representation between life and death, all of the eternal rebirthing and stuff! So Ether also represents death in a sense.

@Moonlit Sonata I did close it but since I know who you are you can still apply, knowing I don't have to deal with too much shit... hopefully.

Lovely.

@WanderingSpirit Yeeh, I decided you can roll with your eyes! You just get some PMs with lotsa extra information that you can incorporate in your posts as you see fit~. Vim making stuff gloomy isn't even too far from the truth considering that, despite official sources stating Vim is just trash, experimenting with Vim kinda corrupts the world. And thinking about it now I probably did get influenced by Madoka back then(I mean this RP is a re-boot from 2 years ago with changes according to the experience I collected over that time)... though the term Vim is stolen from a nice game!

And thinking about it more, I initially thought he'd see all the stuff in form of colored glow depending on the concentration/intensity of the resource or whatever, but I am led to believe that is not the case. Care to elaborate a bit more?

@Skyswimsky
Ehh... I lump everything into something like black and white, which Mana and Qnd is the bright white stuff, with Qnd glowing brighter like a white color while Mana would be like a blue glow. I'd make sense of it as ether being the dull in the shine of mana that is rekindled to its full virtue and Vim is the dying light of Qnd that is a flame being snuffed out.

Ehhh... it's like the 21st century, I'll take colored magical vision if you don't mind me having it. Also, Tales of Mej'Eyal is a fun and I have it on my desktop strangely but haven't touched it in a while. I might just get back onto it whenever I have the time to do so.
