Thanks Supah! :) I think you really don't give yourself enough credit. Your CS was good. It really is quite a tough one as Phantom did not comment much for ours yet. Don't know what he is thinking. LOL

I am waiting for LimeyPanda's and ... the combat mage. :)

So I reviewed all of the CS's that have been turned in, and I think I might close down the application after panda and the combat mage have been posted.

To comment on cow and ryver

@Cow: I find the character to be interesting, the only problem is that the whole royalty thing, we have two "royalty that don't want to be leader" type of characters with yours and the elf one, so that makes it difficult for me. Still, overall, a very nice CS and I'm happy that you posted, even if you don't feel confident in yourself, it's awesome :).

@Ryver: This character gives me the feeling of the genie, but at the opposite end of that spectrum. While the djinn is stuck there, she doesn't mind working there and is willing to help. For the hunter though, this character is essentially waiting for a way out of the peace keepers and to fight them back. He's force there, but wants out unlike the djinn, so it's an interesting dynamic.

Overall, everyone has churned out awesome CS's and again, I hate all of you for making my life more difficult.

Oh right LimeyPanda! And yeah, I'm nervous as hell. I don't know what Phantom thinks. I'm like going crazy asdfghjkl;' ideka.
@Phantom Oh yeah. Well I re-read lydyn's CS and she didn't make it clear if she wants to rule over her kingdom or not. But I don't know. I'm confuzzled. Anyways, I'll try to make this work (I think) and edit it. :D
*Oh yea thanks for calling me cow. Everyone calls me cow in my other forums I'm in and now I fell at home lol

May the odds be ever in everyone's favor. We'll need it :P

Alright guys, big announcement.

So, Ryver will be accepted into this RP for a different role. Instead of being a field agent, she will be playing a more "intelligence agent" character. She'll basically be a character involved with interactions and non-combat oriented segments of the RP for the most part. She's being given this automatic spot because I'm having her co-gm this rp with me. We're gonna work together on plot ideas and such.

Don't worry, her getting this spot will not take away from the other spots for everyone else. There are still 4 open positions that everyone can apply for, it's just ryver will be working as my "assistant" of sorts for the RP and have a character to help us build scenarios and such. So, everyone enjoy and look forward to some awesome stories.

Name: Bushi

Age: 406 (Appears much younger than that, looking in the twenties.)

Gender: Male

Race: Bushi’s appearance may be a human one; however, he is actually the Kami of a legendary sword made sentient. The Kami were the spirit gods of Japan, with the ancient Japanese believing that every object had a Kami, or spirit, to appease: in the hopes of gaining fortune and currying favour. Bushi’s sentience was the result of demonic machinations. The result of a demon contract that left Bushi alive, but without his ‘true’ self, namely the sword he was Kami of.

Being a weapon-kami gives Bushi a number of talents. Perhaps the most useful is his inability to die. For so long as one half of the Kami lives, so too shall the other. Without destroying the original sword Bushi was born of, the man cannot die. That isn’t to say he can’t be incapacitated though: a ‘lethal’ blow would have Bushi comatose until his body repairs, re-forges or regenerates itself. He is also made flesh, meaning that he can have bones broken and skin sliced: just like a normal person. Should the sword ever play a part in his life again, and should someone hold the sword’s scabbard in Bushi’s presence: they will gain a control over than man that is like master and slave. Unlike a normal person, Bushi is unaffected by needs of the stomach. He doesn’t need to eat or drink, however he does partake of meals when he can: enjoying the social aspect and the taste.

Job/Skills: Having lived a number of years, Bushi has gained a number of minor talents: cooking, blacksmithing and basic surgery being amongst those small talents. None though, compare to his modus operandi: Metal-mancy. This power allows him to re-form metal at will: changing a rod of iron into a sword at a single touch, or willing a shard of copper into a bullet. The skill is incredibly useful, and, when used imaginatively, incredibly powerful. The skill is not without limitations though; the most obvious being the requirement for a source of actual metal as a catalyst for his powers. Bushi needs an equal amount of metal to make an equally weighted sword. If he tried to make a dagger into a sword, the sword would be weak and flimsy and useless in a fight. Conversely, if he made a sword into a dagger, the dagger would be stronger and sturdier.

Items: None yet. It should be noted that Bushi’s powers directly correlate with whatever weapon he is wielding. A sword in the hand makes him a balanced, keen warrior: whereas an axe will make his a physical juggernaut with lesser speed and finesse. Not only is the type of weapon important, but as is the quality. A no-name dime-a-dozen dagger means his powers are not much more than a trained human. When wielding a sword with a heritage and a name, Bushi’s powers are amplified immensely.

Personality: Bushi is a man bound by honour and held up in the lofty code of bushido that is, nowadays, so outdated. For his convictions, Bushi would risk his life gladly (Although Pseudo-immortality helps, on that front.) If an honest man is what you seek, you will find none more honest, stout hearted or fair than Bushi. Despite this sense of duty-bound honour, Bushi holds professionalism towards any Peacekeeper mission. The council are his Daimyo, and he would not fail any of them: whatever disgrace people might levy against him.

Outside of talk of honour, Bushi is a very brash individual. Always one to speak his mind, loudly more often than not, and quick to offer words of advice and wisdom, Bushi can have an almost intimidating air about him. He holds an intensity and magnitude that often scares off lesser men. Such as his dedication to wearing the patch over his perfectly working left-eye.

Despite his air of intimidating intensity, Bushi is a genuine, affectionate and charismatic figure: especially if he learns your first name. The kami is eager to share stories with the people he likes, just as eagerly as he is to share drink, something he always seems to have on his persons, even when the situation demands otherwise.

Overall, Bushi is a larger-than-life individual who has lived for a long time. His natural charisma, intensity and charm are matched only by his wit, his blunt-ness, and his forgetfulness for people, as well as his fondness of reverie. Bushi is unflinchingly driven towards his goals, none more-so than his quest to recover the blade he was birthed from.

Years in the Peacekeepers: Bushi has been a part of the peacekeepers for six months now. Prior to being part of the peacekeepers, Bushi served as a Ronin-for-hire. He has constantly pursued the sword he was born from, and offers from the elders of the Peacekeepers were enough to sway him.

Why you joined: Bushi quests of self-recovery, as opposed to self-discovery. His sword is the thing that makes him both powerful and vulnerable in equal measures: yet it is not the reason he hunts the blade so readily. Bushi seeks the sword because he, in a way, is the sword. Every killing stroke is a kill he made: every innocent slain or villain vanquished is a notch against his own spirit. He doesn’t have a way to atone for the sins committed by the sword, or to benefit from the good deeds wrought in its use, but he is honour-bound above all else to recover it, lest it: and he, be used by someone with wicked intent.

Bushi first came to the attention of the peacekeepers on a mission. Sadly, at the time, he was playing for the wrong side. A group of goblin drug-runners had hired Bushi as extra muscle, and he performed the task admirably. So admirably in fact, that he managed to knock out several peace keepers on his own with only a lump of iron. It was only when the drug-runners sought to use a hostage that Bushi’s personality overtook his duty. He delivered a righteous thrashing to the goblins and saved the hostage: whilst simultaneously gathering the attention of the peacekeepers. Ever since, Bushi has torn a rather successful path through the Peacekeeper’s ranks: racking up success after success on increasingly important missions until he was offered a job with the ‘A-team’ as it were.

Personal Arc: Bushi’s sword is the crux of any personal arc. The sword holds such a mystical power over the man that its discovery would drive him from near enough any tasks to achieve his four century ambition for the reuniting of spirit and sword. The day he is reunited with his blade is the day he removes his eyepatch: for that is the day he will become whole again.

So yeah ... Selina doesn't exactly want to be ruler, but there are two notes to this - first, she's willing to do anything she can while away to help and second, she was never second in line anyways. Her brother was the heir, which gave her confidence to leave.

And yes... more CSs make me nervous. I've never made it into a competition-type application...

The wait for the decision is killing me too. It's more exciting than anything, actually. Hah! Everyone's CS is fantastic though; I love the diversity we have going here with all the powers, species, etc. And I hope you're enjoying your time with them, Judge Phantom! :P

Alright guys, so here's the final list of those that have been accepted.

Myself as Mia Feral
Rexcalibur as Angel (Angél de Cervántes)
Sonatina as Robin Voshell
SupahCow090 as Cerulean Mystique
LimeyPanda as Bushi

For those who haven't been accepted, just because you haven't made it in this time does not mean you are expelled forever. After I finish up the first major arc involving all of our characters (which if we keep up to schedule should be concluded within 6 months lol) then I will re-open the application period for this RP as we will be expanding and require more new recruits.

Thanks everyone for applying, and don't be shy to stick around and watch the story unfold :)
