Mhm. The wonders of technology.

[Shadow Daedalus]

@CadenGallic Is this dead? I hope not

[Shadow Daedalus]

@Eklispe@Sho Minazuki@CadenGallic@Polaris North

Is anyone still knocking around for this RP? I really don't want to let it die off yet

[Eklispe]

Boop

[Polaris North]

Heyo.

[Shadow Daedalus]

@Eklispe If you post an IC, maybe we can get @CadenGallic to move us on

[CadenGallic]

@Shadow Daedalus@Polaris North@Eklispe@Sho Minazuki

Alright folks. First, let me apologize for what is pretty much only describable as an overly long hiatus. College work combined with my kitchen being renovated kept me busy for a while and I should've let you guys know. I hope you'll forgive me, because as long as I can GM, I won't be letting this die. So if you're all still with me, i'll move us along.

[Shadow Daedalus]

@CadenGallic I'm still with you (just not right now, it's 1am and I'm supposed to be asleep xD)

[Polaris North]

@CadenGallic

Yep, still here.

[Sho Minazuki]

Still here sorta.

[Eklispe]

'Ere

[Shadow Daedalus]

@CadenGallic That's all of us, so let's keep this ball rolling, eh? :)

[Shadow Daedalus]

@Eklispe Your turn to post :P

[Shadow Daedalus]

@CadenGallic I got bored and modified my old 2nd year CSes into members of Venator's old group, as well as a fresh one based on the girl in his picture. Feel free to approve or deny them at your leisure. I left the Bios blank because they're not Lustre students, so I don't know if I need them.

Vita Kanin

Name: Vita Kanin (derived from Vit Kanin, meaning white rabbit in swedish)
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Species: Rabbit Faunus
Face: Soft features with a young appearance, can sometimes be mistaken for being younger than she is.
Hair: Messy snow white, falling just above her shoulders
Eyes: Burgandy Red, soft in appearance
Skin: Pale
If you haven't realised, she is the rabbit-girl in Venator's picture.

Frame: Petite
Height: 1.57m (5'2")
Weight: 55kg (8St 10lb)

Personality: Vita is a quiet and shy person, often appearing to be meek or otherwise timid. She spends most of her time close to those she is close too and will often hide behind others around people she is unfamiliar with. She doesn't speak much, and when she does it is often short and timid.

This changes around people she is comfortable with, like the others in her group. She is doting and boisterous, often considered the 'little sister' of the group for the way she always puts her 'family' first, even when it's of little importance. She will sometimes act her age, like begging for sweets or looking for approval from her older 'siblings'.

Weapon: Dual 'mare's leg'/ curved short swords
Weapon Name: Rusa and Strejk.
Weapon Functions: Rusa and Strejk are exactly the same when in blade form, as they function as regular swords without any special functions, but they are different when they are transformed into their gun forms. To change from rifle form to sword form, the barrel pivots backwards a little just above the handle, and the blade extends from underneath the barrel. To change back, the same process happens in reverse. While they are both short-barrelled, lever-action rifles (aka Mare's Leg rifles), Rusa is loaded to fire .44 Magnum pistol rounds as opposed to Strejk, which is loaded with 20-gauge shotgun slugs. Rusa is more accurate at medium to long ranges, which is complemented by Strejk at short to medium range. Each weapon can also be loaded with dust rounds.

Armor/ Clothing: Black shirt over a white blazer and bow, with a pleated grey shirt and black thigh-high socks. She also has a red scarf wrapped around her shoulders at all times.
Semblance Name: Golden Pocketwatch
Semblance: This semblance affects her perception of time and the speed at which she reacts. Her physical speed increases to roughly double of what it was, while her perception of time halves. To her, the world appears to move in slow motion, which allows her to perceive and react to threats much faster. Overall, her reaction time is reduced to a quarter of what it was before hand. This, however, means she uses up her energy twice as fast, so her overall stamina is halved as well.

Strengths: Because of her speed and agility, she can practically dance around slower opponents and her semblance further increases this, which means she can quickly overwhelm singular or small groups of enemies alone.
Weaknesses: Physically, she is weaker than most opponents as she relies more on her speed, so if she is trapped or in a position she can't run from, she is almost guaranteed to lose.

Bio: WIP

Hemlock Thorne

Name: Hemlock Thorne
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Species: Deer Faunus
Face: sharp features, Major scar across his left eye and across the right of his mouth. Small antlers sprout from the top of his head.
Hair: Very dark green, usually tied into a rough ponytail stopping just below his collar.
Eyes: Very pale green irises, at a glance might seem blind.
Skin: Pale/slightly discoloured.

Frame: Slim, not particularly muscular.
Height: 5'10
Weight: 65kg

Personality: Quiet and introverted, he doesn't interact much with people he is unfamiliar with but will open up in time. He doesn't seem to get affected by things in public, but those close to him know how much it actually gets to him. He can't speak (he is mute), but instead communicates in sign language or by typing onto his scroll.

Weapon: Compound Bow/Double-ended Polearm
Weapon Name: Black Rose
Weapon Functions: In Bow form, It can fire multiple types of arrows, including Dust arrows, grappling hooks and tracking darts. In pole-arm form, it has no special features. The blades on each end cannot be fully retracted, only reduced in size to the size of large knives, while in pole-arm form they are 10in long and 3in wide. In pole-arm form, the bowstring loosens so the limbs can straighten and collapse before extending to a length of 5ft including the blade on each end.

Armor/ Clothing: Wears a tattered dark green cloak and hood with holes for his antlers over a white shirt, brown waist coat and black trousers with brown boots. In combat, he wears leather armour covering his whole arms, shoulders and legs. He also wears two quivers (one with regular and dust arrows, the other with his trick arrows) under his cloak, on his waist so that he can draw his arrows faster.
Aura: Purple
Semblance Name: Nightshade
Semblance: When active, any weapon that Hemlock uses will be given a lingering poison that has the same damage as the weapon over a few seconds. (If a weapon does 5% aura damage with one attack, the poison would do 1% extra damage for 5 seconds). It also creates unique forms of dust, which behave slightly differently to their normal counterparts. Fire dust arrows behave similar to thermite in that they burn though the area they hit but do not spread like normal fire arrows. Ice dust arrows freeze below the surface of the area they affect, inflicting lasting damage and weakening structures like stone and metal though ice weathering. Earth dust arrows also function like this, paralysing any organic material it hits. Steam Dust arrows create a cloud of noxious and poisonous smoke, which acts like tear gas and can cause nausea and disorientation. All other types of dust, like gravity, wind or water, aren't affected by his semblance. He can also use his semblance to attack directly by slowly melting through a Grimm's flesh and bone or burning away a person's aura. He must be in contact with the target, and the damage will stop about 2-3 seconds after contact is broken.

Strengths: A Hunter among Huntsmen, he is skilled in stealth and solo operations despite his role within a team, but can also work within his team to provide precision support from medium to longer range.
Weaknesses: Although his weapon had a close range transformation, he isn't as strong as other opponents and has a limited stamina so relies more on using his speed to end fights before they drag on. He also doesn't perform well when quickly put under pressure, usually relying on stealth to strike effectively.

Fylla Mahogany

Name: Fylla Mahogany
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Species: Bear Faunus
Face: Fairly soft features.
Hair: Dark brown, slightly wavy, reaches just below her shoulder blades.
Eyes: Dark green
Skin: Mildly tanned

Frame: Slight, but with noticeable muscle
Height: 6'00"
Weight: 60Kg

Personality: A very patient and kind person, she is seen as the mother-figure of the team. She loves to help people and hates seeing others struggling or going through hardships, so she will try to do whatever she can to make it better for the person without being too invasive. She has a very long temper, but when it runs out she is a nightmare to behold. Whilst not outwardly aggressive, she shows no mercy to her enemies, be they person, Grimm or otherwise.

Weapon: Heavy MG/Greatsword
Weapon Name: Hyperion
Weapon Functions: Hyperion is a gigantic single-edged great-sword with a belt-fed .50 Calibre Machine Gun built into the top of the blade. There isn't much change between the two modes apart from the position of the handles. In sword form, both handles are parallel with the blade, allowing for her to swing the weapon with both hands, while in MG mode the firing handle bends at an angle and the carrying handle on top rotates 90 degrees, much like this. It has a slower rate of fire than some other automatic weapons, but makes up for it in heavier damage.

Armor/ Clothing: Dark green halter top, beige skinny jeans and brown ankle boots. Wears a dark brown jacket in the colder months.
Semblance Name: Stone Forest
Semblance: Infuses her body and any object she is touching with her aura, massively increasing its resistance to damage, but vastly decreasing her speed and increasing her and the object's weight. If used in a bullhead, for example, It would be slower and more sluggish, as if carrying a heavy load.

Strengths: Highly skilled with her blade and strong enough to wield it well, she can overpower most people her age, and even some Grimm. She is also very caring, which allows her to bond with people easily.
Weaknesses: Because of the nature of her weapon, she doesn't have a high degree of precision in either form, relying more on overwhelming damage as a whole. Her caring nature can also distract her in battle, should a teammate be seriously wounded her concentration can slip, giving her enemy a chance to strike.

Bio: WIP

Ryuu Chroma

Name: Ryuu Iro Chroma
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Species: Reptile Faunus
Face: Mildly chiselled face, fanged teeth
Hair: Black, wildly styled with natural silver highlights.
Eyes: Dark Grey, glassy, snake-like slit pupil.
Skin: very slight tan

Appearance

Frame: medium-slim
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 67kg

Personality: An honourable person, Ryuu values a code of honour towards others, such as only facing someone in a fair fight etc. He respects those that practice values like mercy and redemption, and is strongly against killing a surrendering enemy. If the enemy will not surrender, he will begrudgingly strike them down. His code of honour, however, comes second to how much he cares for his friends and allies, and he will not hesitate to throw away his honour to save a friend or innocent bystander.

Weapon: Dust-powered/quick-draw Katana
Weapon Name: Kagayaki Ryujin or just 'Ryujin' for short
Weapon Functions: When drawn, It was a vial of Dust inlaid into the back of the blade that it can use imbue the blade with that power. To change the dust within the blade, it is sheathed and a revolver-like mechanism switches the vial with the desired replacement. There is also a separate mechanism that uses Gravity-type dust to propel the blade outwards whilst simultaneously igniting some of the chosen dust to form an arc of energy corresponding to the dust's effect. This can used as a short-range ranged attack but dissipates after travelling 15 meters.

Armor/ Clothing: Wears a long, dark grey robe with a silver lining and a silver dragon design running up the left side and coiling around his left arm, with three belts across the waist. Underneath is a high collar black top and dark grey jeans with black waraji-style sandals. In combat, he wears grey oriental-style armour on his wrists, shoulders and shins.
Semblance Name: Dragon King
Semblance: Expands and hardens his aura to form a pair of blade-like dragon wings, which can be used to fly, attack or defend. He can also push his aura though his limbs (mostly into his sword) to empower his strikes, or to use a breath-like attack by forcing it into his lungs. This semblance requires Dust as a catalyst, in any form, and will take in the properties of that dust. For example, if he were to draw Fire dust from his sword, he would gain Fire breath, but if he were to grab raw Water dust he could use a Water cannon-like attack. While in use, the silver streaks in his hair and eyes glow with the appropriate colour, and dragon-like horns appear to grow from his head.

Strengths: His speed and strength have been specially trained to compliment his preferred fighting style, using quick but devastating slashes. Also, his versatile semblance means he can adapt to a wider range of situations.
Weaknesses: No forms of ranged attack mean he is vulnerable from a distance. He can also be baited into duels by insulting his pride.

[Shadow Daedalus]

@Sho Minazuki Hey, I'm curious about something. How do you do your drawings? What device and software?

[CadenGallic]

@Shadow Daedalus
So just to ask, what would you be planning to do with these OCs? Just bring them in for bigger events or have them in Vault?

[Shadow Daedalus]

@CadenGallic It was more just throwing them out there, in case I wanted to bring them in for something. For example, if the students take a break to visit Vault, Venator might drop by to visit them
