@Nyahahameha Also, if you need help with Nickle's backstory, I think all the GM's would be happy to help you hash that out in a group PM. I know I would.

@tobiax Oh gosh, that'd be great. :) I already PMed EnterTheHero with my initial thoughts on that plus the GM only stuff. Can I, like...add participants to that convo?
Couldn't figure out how to do it if it's even possible, so I started a new PM with the three of you specificall for the backstory.

@Nyahahameha Unless the other GM's have something to point out, I'd say you're accepted.

We're still accepting players by the way! Max is Twelve!

Sorry for the lack of a response to the PM. Still interested, just taking a bit to figure out my char's backstory.
GM
@FlappyTheSpybot Okay. I'd have appreciated you getting to us sooner, but I appreciate it now.
I have two characters that I am trying to find the time to finish. If this rp is still going that is.

@KiwiTime Yup, just waiting to build a suitable playerbase. Giving people time to get characters in.

Name: Aqua Marina
Age: 17
Sex: Female
Phenotype: Human
Nationality: Mistral
Weapon: Babylonian Showstopper - A weapon made by sticking bits and pieces of what was previously an Atlasian prototype into a family heirloom, this weapon is composed by two main parts: the Heavenly Bridge and the Curtain Call.
The Heavenly Bridge is a six and a half foot tall naginata that posesses two curved blades side-by-side on its hilt, each of them sixteen inches long and facing the same direction, which can be turned around by twisting a section of the shaft so that they both face away from each other. A special compartment exists at the bottom of the shaft where one can load cartridges of Lightning Dust to electrically charge the blades. There is also a holster near the bottom for Aqua's sidearm, and a concealed slot to fit this weapon in.
The Curtain Call is a large three-chambered revolver designed to fire high-caliber rifle cartridges with one hand. Whilst it's capable of outranging other pistols with ease, Aqua's use of this weapon is scarce, prefering to fire it point-blank on blind spots if the chance arises.
By fitting the Curtain Call into the Heavenly Bridge's concealed slot, one can perform a series of inputs to turn the two weapons into the Babylonian Showstopper, a high-caliber rifle that boasts an amazing firepower for mid-range combat by using the mechanism within the twin blades, now located one on each side of the barrel, to accelerate the projectiles at incredible speeds. However, the Babylonian Showstopper also sports a dangerous recoil, high Lightning Dust expenses and somewhat long reloading times. And, to top it all off, prolonged usage of what is essentially a make-shift railgun without maintenance in between can lead to the main body of the weapon, conformed almost in its entirety by the Heaveny Bridge, to be damaged beyond repair.
Semblance: Step - Aqua can step on the air if she wishes to.
Aura Color: Aquamarine.
but in Aqua's color scheme of cyan and black
Personality: With a perpetual frown and a silently burning gaze, it's quite easy to see that Aqua is an aloof, standoffish and vitrolic individual who is apparently incapable of speaking to her peers in a civil language. A meritocrat at heart, she'll gun down any perceived failures on others and point out any mistakes she sees without mincing her words. Failure, either from her teammates or herself, tends to upset her greatly, and she strives to correct any and all errors in her ways. It may be difficult to see at first, but Aqua has a strong belief that the end justifies the means, which made her into a known pragmatist. Aqua will press onto every advantage she is presented with and will use every trick in the book in order to achieve her objective, even if at times it's not precisely correct to do so.
Background: Aqua hails from a small, outlying town that served as a respite spot within the Mistral Trade Route, being located in a convenient spot for traders to restock before continuing on their way. Because of this, the settlement thrived greatly from this cultural exchange and the locals lived happily within the city.
She was born in the numerous family of the town's mayor, a retired Huntsman who, wielding the Heavenly Bridge, had served as this town's protector for a good portion of his life and who was revered and respected by everyone. This man, Celestine, had thirteen children, of which Aqua and her older twin brother were the eldest. He was a very important part of Aqua's life, and she remembers him very fondly.
However, when he passed away three years ago, something terrible happened in the city that made Aqua leave in disgrace. For reasons she's not open to discuss, she has traveled from Mistral to Vacuo, spending a good portion of these years working and training under a group of mercenaries that took her in as their apprentice, gaining the necessary experience to be able to enter Shade. And now, in the present day, she presented herself to its gates. Ready to become a huntress and show the world just what she's made of.

Likes: Dancing, Athletics, Coffee, Hairdressing, Snarking
Dislikes: Standing idle, Wasting time, Tea, Excuses, Mornings
Favors:
- Agility: Aqua is, first and foremost, a very nimble fighter. This is because of a natural proficiency in acrobatics, an impecable foot work and tons of practice with her Semblance.
- Versatility: Because of her own perfectionism, Aqua made sure that she's capable to fit into any role that her team needs her to be at the moment, and as such she is fairly good in a wide variety of situations.
- Quick Thinking: Aqua can be said to be someone who thinks on her feet: she's quick to react in an appropiate way to the situation before her. Combined with her sharp reflexes, it's hard to catch her off guard when she's attentive.
- Creative: In an attempt to remain unpredictable and always have the upper hand in conflicts, Aqua sometimes comes up with rather wild schemes or maneuvers that, surprisingly, work out well.
Disfavors:
- Unbearable: Aqua is, to put it simply, very hard to work with. Her silent and at times vocal disdain to others is everpresent both in daily life and in missions. It's not uncommon for her words to spark a fight between people and, whilst she sometimes holds her tongue amongst strangers, a holier-than-thou attitude can be perceived from her at almost all times.
- Unspecialized: Whilst she is certainly quite good at a wide variety of situations, it's important to remark that Aqua is no prodigy in any way. Her performance is just slightly above average the norm so, even if she doesn't enjoy this fight, in a direct contest of skills she is more likely to lose than she lets out.
- Long-Term Planning: Being someone who prefers to come up with solutions on the spot for situations, Aqua is understandably not the best when it comes to preparations. She is the kind of person to repeat "I'll figure it out" when pressed for details.
- Unpredictable: Whilst this can be a good attribute in the corect situations, her uncooperative demeanor tends to make this more of a detriment than anything. She can forego orders and go on about her own way if she believes her plan to be better, something that happens more often than not.

Name: Stehlen Seele
Age: 17
Sex: Female
Phenotype: Human
Appearance:
Nationality: Atlesian
Weapon: Stehlen's 'weapons' are her mechanical arms. The right arm, Friedensstifter, is the larger and more powerful of the two. It contains an internal piston that can be extended and retracted rapidly for extra striking power. The shell of the arm is made of a strong, heavy type of steel that is naturally black in color. The left arm, Herzstopper, is smaller and contains a dust launcher in the middle of the palm. Although it is a general purpose dust launcher, Stehlen regularly utilizes earth dust for extra stopping power. The shell of Herzstopper is made from aluminum, and isn't made to withstand large amounts of damage.
Semblance: Technokinesis - Stehlen's Semblance allows her to control and manipulate most mechanical or technological things she is aware of.
Aura Color: Silver
Emblem:
Personality: Stehlen is a laidback girl with a pessimistic outlook on life. If she could, she'd spend every day lazing around and tinkering with whatever caught her attention. Whatever does catch her attention, however, is usually subjected to constant scrutiny as she single mindedly attempts to figure out what makes it tick. When interacting with others, Stehlen prefers to take a distant and quiet approach, only really speaking up in the event that she has something to say, whether it's a helpful comment or a snarky jab. Beyond that, Stehlen attempts to be polite, but she tends to be rather blunt when she speaks.
Background: Stehlen is the daughter of two prominent engineers working for the Atlas military. She grew up in a household full of gears, blueprints, tools, and the sounds of machines being ruthlessly disassembled after they failed to meet whatever purpose they were designed for. Because of this, Stehlen quickly became quite the engineering prodigy. She went to prestigious academies, won several competitions, and even managed to assist her parents on some of their projects. She was on track to become one of the greatest engineers in her generation until an accident occurred in her parents lab one day, killing the both of them and costing Stehlen both of her arms as well as her right eye. After that, she dropped out of her engineering school to begin training to become a Huntress, utilizing her newly awakened Aura and Semblance to craft herself a new, more powerful pair of arms.
Likes: Tinkering, being lazy, sweet foods, urban areas.
Dislikes: Loud Noises, strict people, having to be the voice of reason, nature.
Favors:
Adaptation - Stehlen is able to handle most things that come at her on the fly, altering her plans and actions to fit whatever's happening at the time.
Machines - Through a combination of her Semblance and her training, Stehlen is capable of dealing with any technical problems she may face.
Keeping it Together - Stehlen is a naturally calm person, and this comes into effect in battle. Stehlen is able to maintain her focus in the middle of battle with ease.
Disfavors:
The Aim of a Limping Camel - Stehlen is... less than proficient at ranged combat. Most of the time, she'll miss whatever target she's aiming at horribly.
Robot arms means Robot Weaknesses - Stehlen's arms are fully mechanical, and although this makes them stronger is some ways, this also makes them weaker in others. If Stehlen's arms were to be disabled through some means, such as a short circuit, she would be next to defenseless.
Depth Perception - Due to the fact that Stehlen is missing her right eye, she is quite vulnerable to attacks coming from that side of her body. She's been working to limit this weakness, but it is still a glaring problem.

@Senseless So... we've looked through your app and, while the presentation seems OK so far, there are specific fields that I personally feel you should flesh out a little more. I understand you tobiax are discussing the specifics of Stehlen's Semblance, which is good, but some more information on the personality and the biography would be appreciated as well, even if they're just another couple of lines apiece.
Feel free to PM all three of us if you feel you need a hand. We're here to help, after all.
