Potential interest in Black Tortoise as a Magical Boy, if that's not too inconvenient. Also 262144?

Go for it. If you're having a hard time coming up with a name, you can use 北川 冬矢 Kitagawa Touya

I have very very vague ideas for what I might do for spells and a slightly better idea of what I'm doing character-wise. ^^;

Remember, you can also make non-attack spells, like buffs and such. They can be be based on your animal, they can also be conceptual, like turtle can raise defense, fire can raise attack, etc.

I think for starting spells I'd do some kind of water blast and maybe a turtle themed shield?

Yeah, just make a CS

Name: Azuma Haruko
Age: 16
Appearance: "Aquariums are so soothing to watch, I love seeing all the different fish!"
Personality: Haruko is a very friendly, bright, and sociable girl. She is not one to act irritable or standoffish, and instead she is liable to immediately start trying to talk to new people. She enjoys meeting new people and finding new, nice places to play around. Haruko is also quite energetic, and while she's not incapable of being relaxed she enjoys moving around and being on the go. At least if it's not school or something. Haruko is very much not a fan of homework. But if it's a game, or something with her friends, she loves being up and energetic. Haruko cares a great deal for her friends and would do absolutely anything for them, as well. She is nearly always on the lookout for new people to befriend regardless of if it is logical or sensical to attempt to do so, as well.
Background: There's really not much to say. Haruko has had a pretty normal life, though she's spent a lot of it, ever since she was a little girl, befriending others in any way possible.
Abilities:
Spell 1 Name: Sunflower Shield
A large, round barrier that forms in front of Haruko's hand, closely resembling the "face" of a sunflower, minus the petals. While it can be used as a standard defense, it can also be used to ram opponents. This is how Haruko prefers to use it.
Spell 2 Name: Daisy Chain
A series of chains made out of daisies, rather obviously. They can sprout from the ground and bind enemies to keep them from moving, so they can be more freely attacked. They're not too strong, though, and can be broken out of.

OK, two down, two to go. I too, love aquariums

Any room for supporting characters?

^ I'll think on it.

Sorry, but I guess I don't have any workable ideas for this, so I'll have to withdraw.

Um.. Hi :) I'd like to join in on the fun, if you'd let me...

Sure, we might have people leaving.

I'm really, really sorry it's been taking so long, but I've almost finished my character but I was wondering if you were still intending to run this. I'm just a little worried that the delay I've been causing might have made you lose enthusiasm for this idea (I hope it didn't though, but I'd understand if it did).

Hopefully she'll be up if not tonight then tomorrow.

Did not lose enthusiasm. I'm still here.

OK, so Rin is still with us, and our Black Tortoise has dropped. That being the case:

@Lost Cause- because you asked first, I want to ask you if are you interested in being just a supporting character, or do you want to take the last vacant magical girl/boy position?

@ReaptheMusic- sorry, I'm going to ask Lost Cause first, since they were here first. If Lost Cause doesn't want to take the Black Tortoise position, then you get it.

I hope this is fair.

Oh good. I was just really worried but um yeah. Anyways, here we go, hope it's okay. ^^; Unfortunately I haven't been able to get the sketch fixed up (which was one of many reasons this took so long); hopefully it's still okay as is though.

• Name: Akiko Weston
• Age: 15
• Appearance: Crappy sketch for now, but... She has ginger hair and green eyes, and is a rather short.

• Personality: At first glance, Akiko comes off as loudmouthed, egotistical and positively overflowing with self-confidence... And to be honest, that sums her up rather well. Simultaneously, her best and worst trait is her ego. Whilst it makes her rather outgoing and willing to take risks, it also makes her come off as kind of arrogant initially, as she's far too quick to praise herself. In the event that she doesn't succeed in something she's attempted, she'll either dismiss it as something below her anyway or simply say that she failed on purpose so as to not make everyone else look bad.

She's not all ego, though; she does in fact care for those around her, even if this is partially because... Well, if anything happened to them, who would be left to bask in her radiant glory? It can just be a little difficult to see beside her ego, as the stars are to the sun. She is nowhere near as perfect as she believes herself to be, though... Her grades are mostly average, she's something of an impulse buyer, and her sense of direction is truly abyssmal; Akiko easily gets lost even if she has a map, clear directions and is supposed to be walking in a straight line.

• Background: Born into a rich family, Akiko has always seen herself as being above all others due to her wealth and status. However, this coupled with her arrogant persona has left her somewhat isolated from others her age; she has very few real friends, although this doesn't really bother her. She sees all of humanity as her friends, after all, treating even complete strangers with a somewhat obtrusive level of familiarity. Unknown to Akiko, though, her family's fortunes are not as high as they once were, and whilst she still believes herself to be rich the truth is that her family is actually slowly nearing bankruptcy...

• Abilities:
•• Beast King Howl: With a mighty roar, Akiko unleashes a sonic attack that, whilst doing no real damage, causes all enemies who hear it to flinch in terror. Some weaker willed enemies might even run off in a panic. However, the stronger willed the target is, the less effect this will have on them; truly strong willed opponents won't even be affected by it at all.
•• Byakkoshinken: Utilising the White Tiger's affinity for metal, Akiko creates a single sword (specifically a shamshir, with a stylized tiger's head for a pommel) for herself to use. Other than being a surprisingly well-crafted and sturdy weapon, the sword has no other special properties for the time being. Akiko is currently only able to have one sword summoned at a time, although this number may increase at some point in the future.

Um...sorry, my leaving message was part of a bigger thing that got posted by accident to here, and I didn't notice it until now in this thread because of mid-term exam stuff and didn't plan on leaving. I...actually just finished my signup. Sorry and I'll understand if you no longer want me here.

Name: Kitagawa Touya

Age: 14

Appearance: in western dress to attend a family business meeting.

Personality: Touya is polite, standoffish and reserved for the most part, but gets surprisingly fired up in battle, especially against strong opponents. Once he really gets to know people he warms up considerably, but until then will just be polite if cold. He practices and trains himself relentlessly in order to be a better fighter and martial artist generally and wants to be the very best he can even at risk of his own health, and more than likely sees fighting monsters as just another way he can prove his strength to himself and others, rather than wanting to be any sort of hero. Being raised to be a perfect gentleman and representative of his clan and being mostly home-schooled, he speaks in a very odd, faux-archaic manner most of the time.

Background: Touya was born into a very respected and well-known zaibatsu that also has a long history of martial arts, and has been groomed from day one to be their heir. As such he's been mostly isolated from other people, home-schooled in between attending business meetings to learn his family's trade and endless hours of practicing their traditional martial arts styles. Other than that he mostly read books on various different subjects and was forced to study calligraphy, tea ceremony, business tactics and many other 'gentlemanly pursuits' As well in order to be 'the perfect representative of his family' living a rich but incredibly disciplined life.

Abilities:

Spell 1: Tortoise Destruction Wave!
Despite its' name, actually just forms a small, high speed wave of water and a tortoise shell of ice under Touya's feet, allowing him to surf on a miniature wave at high speeds for fast maneuvering. The wave can knock back enemies in it's wake occasionally, but can't deal damage.

Spell 2: Ice Shell Impact
A stylized tortoise shell that forms on his wrist, while it can be used as a weak shield or to increase the impact of his strikes, its real use and power is as an ice-firing hand cannon using the tortoise's retractable head as the barrel of a gun. Touya detests using it's real ability as it goes against his nature as a martial artist.

OK, so Rin and Dblade26, characters accepted.

Lost Cause and ReaptheMusic, feel free to submit supporting characters. If you two want to be magical girls/boys, do not fret, you may become in the future as the RP progresses. Just let me know if you would like to.

I am also officially closing applications, we'll start the RP when Lost Cause and ReaptheMusic have submitted characters.

EDIT: I just now realized the easter egg behind the name, "Turtle Destruction Wave".

Well, at least you worked it out.

It's probably better that you don't wait for me before starting; I'm quite notorious for being incredibly slow to get sheets out.
