@Sho Minazuki Thank you. Now regarding your earlier comment I think it would be better if the current guild master, Delsin is the giving Vega a chance. While the retiring guild master was against letting Vega in due to his unsavory demeanor, Delsin, who I am characterizing a military strategist would have seen past that for the gifted wizard he is and asset he would be to the guild. Maybe, he and Vega met while Delsin was on his journey to prepare himself to be guild master. I think a mutual respect and loyalty between the two despite contrast in personality would be great dynamic.

I suppose this works out.
Vega has many skills beyond his magic, that includes stealth and stealing. If he calms down and matures he'd be an incredibly skilled agent and informant.
@Vongola_Hasayo even though Penny is still very much a child with no actual skill in magic or combat, she expresses qualitiess that reflect the ideals of Golems Hand.
Her magic as a Muse lends itself more to fitting in Harpy's Wing, but as far as everyone is concerned she doesn't have any magic. Plus Golems Hand is technically closer to where she lives (it's not secluded by a lake) so it'd be easier for her to have hung out there.
@chukklehed I held out due to some others showing interest and was waiting on their char sheets but ample time has passed and I've decided to close applications to those who aren't already part of the group. 1 spot remains for each guild so whoever wants to make a second char can. Down the line if I feel, I'll open more spots but for now the I think the number we have is large enough for a wide variety of chars but small enough to keep everyone close and in the loop.
I'm making a character for Harpy's Wing for Leslie's Halls family thing. Just thought I should throw that out there. Expect a CS within the next hour or two.
@Vongola_Hasayo The swords in the smith section are W.I.P as I look for pictures/Inspiration, but I plan to have around 6-8 swords in total, with only 2 A-rank blades.
"With my Father gone, it's up to me to uphold the honor of our family. . . however shattered it may be."
Basic Info
Name:: Akane Shimizu Nickname/Alias:: N/A Gender:: Female Age and date of birth:: 24, April 21
Guild:: Harpy's Wing
Rank:: A Rank
Personal Information
Personality:: Most people would label Akane as a stone-cold bitch, and they'd be pretty on the mark with that assessment. Akane doesn't believe in being sweet, demure, or even pleasant around most people, making sure that everyone nows where they stand when they approach her. She does show respect to those who have earned it, such as her guildmaster and Phoebe, but to most others she's aloof at best to what they have to say, and down-right hostile to those who have earned her ire, like Umiko and Goldas, just as likely to try and cut them into as she is to greet them with a disgusted glare, especially the former. She isn't one who makes friends, but to those whose presence she tolerates, she is . . . an interesting person to be around, always speaking her mind and never suffering for lying of any sort. If you're bad at something,s he'll tell you that to your face, but will follow it up with tips on how to improve and what needs work. SHe's never mean for the sake of being mean, they'll always be a reason for her behavior.
However, underneath her rough exterior, there is a rather tortured and stressed soul. Akane has always been under the impression that she needs to be the very best that she an be, and that she can never show even a smidgen of weakness, not even when it may be self-destructive to keep up such a facade. This makes it so that she loathes going to doctors or getting any forms of assistance from anyone, as she finds it an insult to her pride and will often do her best to refuse such support. Akane also suffers from a rather extreme case of schizophrenia, which causes her to see things that aren't there and hear voices whispering into her ears. This condition only got worse after the stress of her father's death and the betrayal of her siblings both leaving her all by herself. When mixed with the influence of her Mark of the Twin Dragons, she had to resort to taking medications to suppress the voices and visions to a state where she can still function. The fact that she even has this condition is a secret held by only her, her father, and the clan healer who prescribes the medicine she takes. To everyone else, she tells them that she's just taking some dietary supplements or some other such throw away explanation.
History:: Akane's life has always been a struggle against her own shortcomings and feelings of mediocrity. Her father and mother were both great people, and her father was an especially great fighter, his strength inspiring her to follow in his footsteps, training with him as soon as she was able. However, two things caused her to feel less than worthy of being her father's heir: her condition, which even at a tender young age was something she was ashamed of, and her mark. The mark she wished she had been born with were those of her Father, that of the Sea and Sky dragons, but instead she was born into the world with the rarest, possibly most powerful, and definitely most dangerous marks that had ever existed: The Marks of Chaos and Destruction. The Dragons loop all across her body, the purple and greens of Chaos melding strangely with the black and red of Destruction until they both stoped with mouths open in challenges on her forearms, seeming ready to bite down all attacks that dared to face them. This marks, while offering great destructive power, also had the reputation of driving most of those who wielded them insane, the dark forces at play with in them ripping their mind to shreds until they finally couldn't take it any more and ended their own lives. Thus, this mark has another name within the Shimuza clan: The marks of Death and Despair.
However, even with these obstacles in her way, she forged ahead, her father's encouraging presence helping her along until, along with her new little sister, she seemed to have almost conquered the demons inside of her. However, her mother's death at the hands of her brother put the first chink in her mental defenses. At that moment, when she looked upon her mother's cold form, then turned to look at what they'd gotten in exchange, she felt something cold and unpleasant settle in her stomach, and the voices began to whisper again, pushing her to commit unspeakable deeds upon her mother's infantile killer. But she resisted, and took in her new sibling with love and caring. In those days, she was kinder . . . happier . . . more at peace with herself and the world around her. However, as they years went by, Akane noticed that her father seemed to spend more and more time with his son, leaving her along as she got older and older, even being slightly neglectful in favor of this last child. She knew that she should be understanding of this, cause unlike her, him and her little sister would grow up without a mother . . . but that cold feeling in her stomach, which had never gone away, only became heavier as time past. ANd so the years would go, her resentment for her youngest sibling growing larger and larger behind the smile and loving nature she showed to him.
She didn't want to feel this way, she wanted to love her brother unconditionally, wanted to have their family be together, wanted to feel safe with those around her. But the voices never stopped whispering, the dragons seeming to slowly but surely move across her frame, their coils tightening around her neck as they sought for the right moment to strike. In the end, the final straw that broke her facade was the day, soon after her father's death, when her brother told her that he was going to Golem's Hand. . . that he was leaving, not only with the Shimizu mark and their father's sword, but at a time when they needed to stay together more than ever. Their father was dead and he wanted to leave the family, heading over to their sworn rivals. In this moment, as the anger surged into her veins, so to did the voices and visions. For a second, she could see nothing but darkness, soon followed by a cacophony of screaming voices as her emotions and sickness took hold of her, screaming out all of her feelings, thoughts, and truths out at the boy before her. She told him that she had always hated him, that he had taken her mother, had stolen away her father, and was now trying to run off with everything he had stolen from this family like the cowardly wretch he was. He probably returned words of his own, but she was too enraged to hear them. In that moment, they both drew their blades and clashed with each other, with Akane summoning her dragons for the first time. In the middle of the day, all that could be heard coming from their compound was the sound of explosions, clashing steel, and rage. Soon, her brother was ran off, his face forever scarred with the mark of her blade, and his place in the household revoked from him. As far as Akane was concerned at the moment, her brother had never existed, and that the man known as Umiko was a blight upon the Shimuza name.
After that day, her sister followed in the blight's footsteps, leaving Akane by herself, with her family shattered into pieces too small to even be seen. Ever since, she has been consumed by her guilt, hatred, and despair, though you'd never tell by looking at her. She has completely closed herself from all other people, never forming any close bonds with others and taking on her new persona as an attempt to fend off more pain.
Magic
Magic Name:: Mystic Smith Magic Description:: This magic allows the user to recreate any weapon they may have come across and ability it may have, aslong as they're able to memorize it's structure via saturating the weapon in their magical energy. It can also be used to alter said weapon, though usually such alterations will weaken the blade in some way. For Example, by making a sword that is able to catch on fire to launch said fire, it may loose out a bit in durability,it's own cutting power, or the power of the flames being launched. ALso, any swords that are made in this fashion are able to be telekinetically moved and wielded by the user, as well as summoned at a moment's noticed while manifested if the user has been disarmed in some way. Let it be noted that the weapons are ranked in power from E-S, and that the stronger the weapon, the longer it takes to memorize its structure, and the more costly it is to make, limiting how many of such a weapon can be made, as well as how fast such a weapon can be formed. Also, once a weapon is made, it's as real as the weapon it's based on, and thus can't be dispelled or canceled out once it's been fully manifested. Known Spells::
Regular Sword(E): It's just a regular sword, though it's finely crafted, and has no other special abilities.
Dragon's Breath(B): A great-sword shaped like the head of a dragon, with the center of the blade holding a barrel-esque opening that allows for it's special abilty to activate. There is a flame Lacrima implanted in the hilt, and when activated, it blows out a stream of fire through the barrel, making the great-sword double as a flame thrower, as well as doubling the weapons effective range.
Chain-blade(D): This blade is filled with many special lacrima that allow the intersecting bits to hold steady when the blade is in it's normal form, but on a command, they release their hold in order to let it whip out, making it a very versatile weapon.
(TBD)
Magic Name:Twin Marks of the Dragon: Chaos and Destruction Description:Unlike her siblings, Akane has access to both of her dragons, being able to wield both of them at once if she wanted to, though such an action wouldn't be very advisable. The dragon of destruction increases her strength and magical potency, as well as serving as a form of barrier due to the fact that the magic that forms the dragon is exceptionally focused and dense, enabling it to barrel through most obstacles as well as beating down on foes. Chaos, on the other hand, is more of a fluid and destabilizing force, breaking up enemy attacks and devouring the left over ethernano in order to grow in size and power. The chaos dragon also exerts a form of disorientation on those nearby, altering their perception of their environment so that up seems like down, left seems like right, and chocolate tastes like vanilla, as well as any other number of ways, though Akane has no control over the type of effect the dragon's presence will have once manifested. However, powerful as these dragons are, they have a heavy toll on the user's mind, especially on Akane. The voices and visions get even more intense and harder to ignore or dismiss as things seem to become increasingly real and frightening to her. It can get to the point where she can just breakdown into a gibbering mess, curling up into a ball as she covers her ears, closes her eyes, and tries to ride out the chaos until the dragon's decide to leave her be, because also unlike her siblings, she has no control over her dragons. In fact, it's more like they have all of the control over her.

@Vongola_Hasayowell here's the cs since you said whoever wants to make a second char can.
"I'll show you my true potential." Name:: Alice Eremiah Nickname/Alias:: Black Eremiah Gender:: Female Age and date of birth:: 19, March 15
Guild:: Golem's Hand; Guild mark is Black and is located on her left shoulder.
Rank:: B-Class
Personal Information
Personality:: Alice is a young girl still in her teens that can come across stern in demeanor. This however is not how she really is rather she is very outgoing and cheerful who enjoys simpler things in life such as fights and sleep. She has a weakness for things she finds cute though she tries to hide it. She can be a caring individual but her ways of showing it at times is somewhat blunt and harsh though making her seem more stern that she actually is. She is by no means a genius but knows enough to get by. Alice is one to see how a situation plays out before jumping in if a problem was to occur. Beyond that Alice is pretty powerful in her own right her strength being considered near insane in what she could do but her lack of experience prevents her from using it to its full potential.
History:: Alice lived in a small village that had little to do with the "outside" as far as they were concerned they lived in peace and in return people left them be. This however did not stop people from visiting the village interested in their many tournaments they hosted and so forth. Alice grew up learning how to fight it was something she excelled in more than more academic studies.
Studying in her families magic and practicing her skills was something she did non stop eventually till it became her main focus. Despite this her parents encouraged her to strike out from the customs that the magic set and create her variation in which it would better suit her style. Alice eventually left her village to learn more on what the world offered beyond her village and to refine her magic. This lead to her taking odd jobs from time to time to make ends meet till eventually she felt that she reached the limit of what she could do by herself.
This lead to her joining the mage guild Golem's Hand her personal opinion variation of her magic led to her fitting in more with them than other guilds as her entire magic focused on enhancing her known skill set with a variety of effects. She is still young and as such is naive on a bit of things and her potential hasn't been fully tapped. Though she things that the guild will help her realize her full potential.
Magic
Magic Name:: Eremian Klatsch Description:: Eremian Klatsch is a type of magic that is unique to the Eremiah family. With it she is able to enhance her physical abilites and manipulate them to create a variety of effects. This is often done through enhancement of her physical body and pushing to its max. This paired with her already incredible strength leaves able to do a variety of near super human feats. She is also capable of channeling the magic to make large bombardment style spells though this often leaves her tired so as a result she does not use this aspect much.
Known Spells:
Geistqual: Support style magic in which is enhances the blows of her punches and kicks. It is her staple skill and is also one she can use on others as well. Though the effect is somewhat lessened.
Kanone Break: Using her fist as the medium her punch functions more like a spear and pierce through defenses.
Heaven Piercing Starlight King Blade: Alice's original technique she made at the age of 14. It allows her to cut things with nothing more than her kicks. She can also release a large energy wave at the enemy to attack at a distance.
Sky-severing Knuckle Her variation of a attack she seen done by a shadow mage. Punching the air creates shadow like arms that releases multiple punches from various angles.
Starlight Sever: A straight forward skill in which she creates and launches a large laser like beam in the direction she is facing. This leaves her tired and as such is rarely used.
@Suku Your gonna need to rethink Alice's magic. In Golem this kind of magic is looked down upon since, and this my patented way of explaining this, "the magic is powering the wizard, not the wizard powering the magic."
NOTE: MY REPLIES WILL BE SPARSE THIS WEEKEND AS I AM CURRENTLY ATTENDING A CON.
