Yes but things like that don't seem very common outside and would make common appearances in the world make our characters stand out that much more which is probably why momonga doesn't use them instead of sebas for say.

Man... I've been writing up an Overlord RP for the last few days and was about to post an interest thread when I saw this. 

Little bit different conceptually than mine but... good luck! Maybe we could collab sometime if I could get mine online and running.

That sounds like even more reason to do it. Avoiding notice and such is much more thrilling then blending in. Would you be down for androids and such anyways?

@HueMan Appreciate the vote of confidence but I don't see much chance in that. Without involving spoilers the world I have built is going to be pretty political built later on. Well not that WE are going to be political more that the puny citizens of the world are and we're going to make it crumble around them because what's the point of an empire if there's no conquering. But that's for later plot points.

@Zelosse At the risk of sounding rude when I don't intend to I'm going to be lay this flat out: I want a straight up DnD style thing here Zelosse. Not steampunk, not semi futuristic. Rule 2 being invoked if need be I just want rogues, magic, necromancy, swords, and heroes. Not guns, robots, and victorian era fights. If I wanted the latter I would have made an Akame Ga Kill roleplay.

OK, how about if I change Lexus Dominiel to be essentially a darkness elemental? Still a construct by 'definition', it is robed in angelic armor during combat, but takes on a mortal guise at other times. I'm going for an "Angels are the perfect instruments through which God's Will is carried out", sort of vibe which is why, as the Angel of Law and Order, I wanted Lexus to be a machine, but I'm willing to forgo that. I still want to be an NPC, come what may. Some say angels are made of light, so I'm skewing it a bit by saying 'absence of light' counts. I'm choosing Darkness because of gravity and its association with consuming light, and because Lexus has the mentality of an 'apocalyptic angel' desiring to sit as judge (law) over an unworthy mankind. Lawful good gone wrong, so to speak. But don't worry, I'll reign in the zealotry to suit Player Character's/the Guild's wants, desires, and commands.

@vancexentan how's this? 

Koschei the Undying
 


Name: Shura Mikhailov
Race: Human
Gender: Female 
Character Level: 76
Alignment: Neutral 
Guild/Party Affiliation: None   

Job Classes:
Warrior (15)
Mercenary (15)
Berserker (10)
Weaponsmith (5)


Fighting Style: Koschei excels in being in the battle, jumping in head first without thinking about anything else besides taking out as many people as possible, while at first Koschei's attacks seem just like swinging left and right to hit everything in front of them, they know more simply that. One of their techniques is half sword, a technique used for them to get around shields and control their sword better by gripping it by the central part of the blade; another technique they know is murder blows, an strange move where she grips the sword by it's blade and bash people with the guard and handle of their blade. 

Strengths: Koschei jumps into a fight with almost reckless abandon without caring about the numbers or what gear they have; her main strength is simply attacking her enemies ruthlessly as many times as she can and using the damage they send back to her to fuel her anger and make her attacks. She's primarily a melee fighter using only a sword to defend and attack, secondly she uses intimidation to scare and at little times kill weaker people with an imposing glare giving into their true berserker. 

Weaknesses: One thing that could actually stop Koschei is a stronger berserker, another berserker would stop Koschei and cause a long battle till one of them won. But Koschei's main weakness is magical attacks, weather they are elemental attacks or simply magical blast or weapons with elemental enchantments or simply magical offensive items. Another weakness would have to be Kiting, where someone such as an archer attacks and keeps retreating before Koschei can get within melee range to them.

Items:

Name of Item: Eye of the Berserker  
Rank of Item: Legendary 
Appearance: A tight, almost too small ring that with a deep onyx jewel on the band
Description of Item: When worn, the ring grants the wearer health back with each consecutive attack
Class/Racial Restrictions: Berserk only
Downsides of Item: Ring only works when the user is injured, and only gives enough health to keep the user from dying not to full health

Name of Item: Moonlight Holy Blade 
Rank of item: Divine
Appearance: In it's normal appearance it's a steel long sword almost bordering on being a claymore, but when held by a holy knight or Paladin it's true power is unlocked making it a great sword with it's entire blade covered in a blue 
Description of item: A Holy weapons made to banish both evil undead and demons when held by the right hands, such as a paladin or Holy knight, when held by a warrior the weapon's strength is cut down by a third of it's original strength and it lacks the blue moonlight glow looking almost like a normal steel sword, when held by evil hands it simply burns their hands rejecting them.  
Class/Racial restrictions: Warriors, Holy knights, Paladins, Templars, Weapon Masters
Downsides of item: True strength is sapped unless a holy knight or paladin and it becomes a sword that's a little dull. 

other items: 
Infinite Backpack
Healing potions
Ring of Sustenance


Name: Rage
Job Class Specialization: Beserker
Effects of Skill: Increases Strength and Attack power 
Side Effects of skill: While active the user's defensive will be lower than usual.
Description of Skill: Releasing a bellowing roar, the Berserker lets out all of their frustrations and bottled up anger in their attacks to hopefully make quick work of their opponent. 

Name: Sweep
Job Class Specialization: Mercenary 
Effects of Skill: Knocks back opponents and can sends weaker opponents flying 
Description of Skill:A long front sweep of the weapon in front of the user to clear space for a retreat or to aid an ally or make room for an ally. 

Name:Earth shaker strike 
Job Class Specialization: Warrior 
Effects of Skill: A heavy attack used to either knock down, immobilize, or simply destroy whatever is in front of them in a single strike, can obliterate enemies that are levels below her. 
Description of Skill: A great blow tears open the ground with a shockwave that batters enemies caught in its path.

@Stern Algorithm I'll cut you a break. Explain how you want to handle going out in public without people either writing you off as a bizarre ghostly apparition in need of exorcism, or  an out of place monster and I'll let you roll with it. Because being completely honest it would be pretty boring for you in this circumstance as you won't be able to properly talk with NPCs, and some player character conversations you will be cut out of due to being an NPC, a group that shouldn't be informed about what the PC's actually are. 

The Imperii NPC's are cut up into three main factions with some very small subs. The Clergy managed by the Grand Patriach, the Army led by the Centurion Claudius, and the Frumentarii led by Severnus the Assassin.

@Spriggs27 Bag of holding shenanigans, I'll trust you not to abuse that, aside I don't see anything wrong with the character as they are currently.

Lexus would spend most of their time exploring in their 'mortal guise', which looks like a human. Only in combat will they reveal their true form, and they will only do so with the intent to kill all witnesses. And I still think being an NPC would be fun since the interplay between humans playing gods and NPC's who actually believe them, and said humans trying to deal with the WTF of being transported into a game and hiding their non-godhood-ness from said NPC's is a great source of hilarity and drama.

@vancexentan I know, just having them constantly yell it when they are near death or feeling like they will lose feels like something I'd make'em do

Also can we create npcs? From what I saw from the wiki after looking around a bit, I noticed that there were people who made npcs.

@Stern AlgorithmAlright I'll let you build a CS skeleton to see if there's anything really questionable about it but in the interest of fair play I'll at least let you try the idea though I still don't think it will work out like you have planned. This roleplay was built with the mind set that Player characters would be the main focus with support NPC's doing their things in the background.

Alright, here's my second stab at submitting this character. Changed some graphics to be less mech-y as well as some descriptions. Also added images for the weapons. @Zelosse has agreed to be Lexus' official creator. Also, Lexus will be part of The Clergy.

CS:
Yggdrasil Username: Lexus Dominiel

Name: Lexus Dominiel

Race: Heteromorphic

Gender: N/A

Character Level: 77

Alignment: Lawful Good

Guild/Party Affiliation: De Ordine Imperii

Appearance:



Lexus Dominiel is an automaton, a magical construct similar to a golem, though in this case, Lexus is a darkness elemental. Lexus' default form is their mortal guise, that of a young, androgynous child with silver hair and violet eyes, but in combat, angelic armor is summoned from a pocket dimension, while the form of the child becomes a dense, shadowy mass that inhabits the armor. In combat form, Lexus has a halo behind their head that is an accretion disc.

Racial Class:
Lv. 15 Angelic Guardian
Lv. 15 Divine Construct

Job Classes:
Lv. 15 Paladin
Lv. 15 Armored Mage

Fighting Style: Crowd Control. Area Control. Bruiser. Tank. Juggernaut. Channeler. Slow and ponderous, Lexus Dominiel does not chase, rather, it relies on its enemies coming to it, or it uses gravity magic to pull opponents within range. Lexus Dominiel operates much better at defending a position, acting as a literal wall, or in helping allies suppress enemies through the use of gravity spells. Lexus Dominiel's forte is thus area control, and anyone who gets close enough must deal with its oppressive, crushing power. Lexus Dominiel is also quite capable at casting high-level spells which require long cast-times, but thanks to its impervious nature, Lexus Dominiel can maintain the channeling uninterrupted. Lexus Dominiel is also no slouch when it comes to melee combat, relying on its massive hammer and tower shield to pummel and repel enemies.

Strengths:Lexus Dominiel is a divine construct, so its physical form is held in place with magic, making it incredibly resistant to physical and magical damage, with a few exceptions. Lexus Dominiel is highly skilled with casting Gravity Magic, and is capable of performing magical rituals. In combat, Lexus Dominiel usually keeps several auras active simultaneously, whether they be supportive or offensive. Lexus Dominiel also weighs a tremendous amount and cannot be moved against its will.

Weaknesses:Lexus Dominiel is slow and its movements are simple. As a construct, Lexus Dominiel is susceptible to lightning damage, which it refers to as the 'Irresistible Judgment of God', to which Lexus Dominiel must succumb. As a practitioner of Gravity Magic, a subset of Dark Magic, Lexus Dominiel is also weak to Light or Holy Magic, which it refers to as the 'Compassion of God', and since Lexus Dominiel sees itself as an aspect of the Wrath of God, and God's Compassion is greater than His Wrath, therefore, Lexus Dominiel must also succumb to Light. It uses these names to explain that its weaknesses have some divine reason, rather than 'game mechanics'.

Items:
Name of Item: Punish the Guilty
Rank of Item:
Appearance:
Description of Item:Lexus Dominiel's warhammer (gavel), indestructible, warps gravity so that it can be swung like a feather and hit like a colliding planet.
Class/Racial Restrictions:
Downsides of Item:

Name of Item: Protect the Innocent
Rank of Item:
Appearance:
Description of Item:Lexus Dominiel's shield, indestructible, has the uncanny ability to draw ranged attacks toward it and away from allies.
Class/Racial Restrictions:
Downsides of Item:

Skills:
Name of Skill: Universal Law
Job Class Specialization:
Effects of Skill:
Side Effects of Skill:
Description of Skill:Lexus Dominiel is represented by the Scale of Justice, constantly measuring weights. It is thus no surprise that it has a special affinity for the Law of Universal Gravitation, and is therefore extremely skilled with Gravity Magic.

Name of Skill: Impartiality
Job Class Specialization:
Effects of Skill:
Side Effects of Skill:
Description of Skill:As the embodiment of Law, Lexus Dominiel is immune to direct psychic/mental attacks and mind-control; its thinking can only be swayed if it accepts your logic and reasoning.

Name of Skill: Arbiter's Vow
Job Class Specialization:
Effects of Skill:
Side Effects of Skill:
Description of Skill:Lexus Dominiel plants its feet firmly and with the force of gravity, becomes the proverbial immovable object.

Name of Skill: Mass Incarceration
Job Class Specialization:
Effects of Skill:
Side Effects of Skill:
Description of Skill:This ability casts an area of effect, doubling the effect of gravity in that area.

Name of Skill: Kneel
Job Class Specialization:
Effects of Skill:
Side Effects of Skill:
Description of Skill:Curses an individual's gravity to slowly increase until they are forced to bow on their hands and knees and their forehead touches the ground.

Name of Skill: Amnesty
Job Class Specialization:
Effects of Skill:
Side Effects of Skill:
Description of Skill:Grants a number of allies (including Lexus Dominiel itself) temporary freedom from the shackles of gravity, allowing flight and immunity from Lexus Dominiel's otherwise indiscriminate area spells.
