[OOC] Yokai Academy, School of Monsters

[EurmalEye]

@arowne97 Ah I see you are a fellow connoisseur of the masterpiece that is Bobobobobo. Excellent job existing. For my part when I played through Hyper Light Drifter it intrigued me with its visual storytelling and beautiful scenery.

@EurmalEye
BoBobo-bobo-bobo amazing series of random stuff lol, loved it when it showed on t.v. and all that.

well it's the simple fact it is manipulating another player's character to say things they don't wish to. Which can cause pure chaos in many, many ways. not to mention it's technically also afflicted by one of the roleplay rules, so just not sure what to call about it, granted we got some decently strong characters who might have ways to simply not be affected. after all we have 1 Magician, 1 doppleganger, a possible witch, and then your character, with a possible vampire maybe on the way.

[EurmalEye]

@olcharlieboi Hmm well in that case I will just drop the character- I might make another one later

[arowne97]

@EurmalEye
Still haven't beaten it honestly. But I was saddened by the cancellation of such an amazing work of art.

My new character!

Name: Mira Nahada
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Race: Kitsune
Race Information: Kitsune are believed to possess great intelligence, long life, and magical powers. Foremost among these is the ability to shapeshifting into human form. A Kitsune's primary weapon is their claws; they can extend claws from their fingertips upon demand. And, if they are feeding or attacking, their eyeballs turn yellow and foxlike while the pupils narrow. All in all, they take on a very similar appearance a werewolf does. The kitsune are often presented as tricksters. Weaknesses: if someone takes hold of their Kitsune Ball, then they can get the kitsune to promise to help them, and kitsune almost never break their promises, when weakened they can turn into a puppy-like state rendering them powerless, Their real names can be used against them. Strengths: Shapeshifting, Enhanced Super Strength, Kitsune can produce/create fire and lightning by rubbing their tails together. Kitsune can also create small balls of fire and even breathe fire, Super Speed, Kitsunes have long talon-like claws that they use to tear at their victims with, and Enhanced Healing. They also have what is called a The Kitsune's Ball, it is a small white ball. It doesn't glow, but it focuses energy and power for kitsune.
Appearance: (full) (Regular) (Human) Same as regular just no ears or tails
Backstory: TBR
Bio: TBR

@KatherinWinter
you have your bio and backstory identical which they shouldn't be. but it doesn't matter since they was optional, accepted.

@ViannaNight
Those technically aren't weaknesses what so ever. Weakness isn't a specific way they can be killed.. it's something that negatively affects them, like a vampire touching water would drain away their power. granted not all creatures have a weakness, but the stronger the creature more likely for weaknesses. I think they had a kitsune appear in the anime once it was kind of insane lol. Only real things I question is the dream manipulation and 'study any normal field of magic'. sense their other things can make them rival vampires and such already.

[KatherinWinter]

@olcharlieboi oppps. Fixed it.

[ViannaNight]

@olcharlieboi

Took those few things out. One of her weakness can be like if her tails got wet she couldn't use her fire until they are dry which can take a couple of hours or something like that? Fix it let me know if that is more of what you are looking for with weaknesses

[olcharlieboi]

@KatherinWinter
You can move her on over to the Char tab.

@ViannaNight
It appears balanced to me now so alright accepted you can move her into the char tab. Bit hard to balance a verity of creatures lol. since no matter how strong something is there is normally a weakness that can be exploited.

[Vulkan]

Intrigued. May i possibly join?

[olcharlieboi]

@Vulkan
really don't need to ask it all depends on your character(s)

[Vulkan]

Hope i didnt screw anything up. Sorry if i did. These guys are intended to be the weak decendants of the Aesir/Giants from Norse Mythology.

Leo Miraki

Name: Leo Miraki
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Race: Loki Trickster Spirit
Race Information: Originating in Denmark where they once tried to portray themselves as demigods, Loki are...assholes. And that's the nicest thing that can be said about them. They are known for being completely sadistic and violent, taking pleasure in using their powers to torment other races, (usually humans) for little more than their own amusement. Luckily for everyone else, they aren't great at hiding their tracks, and have almost been wiped out. Even now, they are widely hated by just about everyone. They worship the trickster god Loki, whom they have obviously named themselves after. Many believe themselves to be his descendant.

Their powers revolve around illusions and mild mind reading. They can only access memories on the surface easily. Trying to get deeper into someone's mind forcefully is extremely painful for both sides and can even cause a stroke in extreme cases, so it is rarely done. It is possible to get deeper into a mind carefully over time, although this can take hours and even days. Using these two powers together, Loki fight using psychological warfare and scaring their opponents into submission.

Their illusions are capable of imitating some senses such as touch and taste, but they are completely incapable of causing physical harm on their own, with all the damage they can cause being in the head. If someone is capable of resisting their illusions, they are actually slightly weaker than the average human. Almost any other monster can take them down with little to no trouble. They are quite quick though, and their eyes are slightly more acute than a humans.

Appearance:
Human Form-



Their real form is humanoid shaped, however, their eyes increase in size, turn a silver colour, and their hair turns fiery red rather than the white that is so common in loki human forms. They grow by about two feet and their skin becomes ice cold to the touch. They believe their true form is blessed, and will never turn into it in front of a non-loki.

Backstory: He says very little about his backstory, although seeing as he is in a monster school, its clear that his parents are out of the picture. A Loki would rather kill their offspring rather than let them be raised by another race. Or if he shows interest in cooperating with other races. Or just if hes not good enough at illusions. Not to mention that if people realised he was a Loki, he would be completely shunned.

Bio: Leo is best described as an oddball. He has a habit of daydreaming constantly, such as in class, or even in the middle of a conversation. He also gets lost extremely easily, even in places that he has been to many times. Due to being a Loki, he stays in his human form almost constantly, and always avoids questions about what race he is. This leads most people to believe he is a magician or something. Despite being a saint compared to most loki, he still has an extremely black sense of humour, and enjoys seeing people he dislikes hurt, as well as being extremely petty at times. Apart from that though, he mostly stays away from everyone else. This has resulted in him getting a reputation for shyness, not helped by the fact he has quite a quiet voice.

@Vulkan
They pretty much seem like mix of Succubi (who are very good at illusions and manipulating the desires of the mind), and a Yuki Oni (Ice maiden) lol. they don't seem super powerful which is good.

@olcharlieboi

Excellent! First part was halfway intentional, as the big L used shapeshifting/illusions to get laid a LOT.

[olcharlieboi]

@Vulkan
until he was tied up by the entrails of his own children.

since I don't see anything really wrong with the character atm, his accepted.

[olcharlieboi]

@ViannaNight @KatherinWinter @arowne97 @EurmalEye

I'll be making an opening post here soon so be ready, probably tomorrow at some point.

[ViannaNight]

Yay! I am excited to start :)

[TheHangedMan]

Name:
Cabal Sabacan

Age:
18

Gender:
Male

Race:
Aswang

Race Information:
A shape-shifting monster from the Philippines, it is often compared to ghouls, vampires, or other werebeasts. The Aswangs are the kings of the Philippines night, being the most feared among all other native monsters. During daylight hours, they masquerade as humans, and are almost indistinguishable from them; in fact, they go so far as to form relationships with some humans, who are exempted from their menu. Aswang feast on the hearts and livers of humans, and can command black magic in order to hide evidence of their involvement. One such magic is the ability to replace their victims with doppelgangers made from plant materials, that will then return to the victim's home, only to become extremely sick and then die, thus removing anything that implicated them.
During the night, they gain supernatural strength, hearing, and speed, and powerful regeneration that makes them unkillable via normal methods; there are only three definitive ways to defeat an Aswang during the night: fight them with a whip made of a stingrays tail, shove garlic inside of them, or keep killing them until they pass out from exhaustion, as their regeneration takes a toll on their stamina. They are also repelled, but not injured, by salt, as they are unable to physically touch the substance.
During daylight, they retain their ability to shape-shift, but keep none of their supehuman ability or immortality, rendering them much like a normal person or animal.

Appearance:
As Aswang basically look human as their default form, due to the need to blend in with humans, Cabal basically assumes a human appearance -- up until he shape-shifts into an animal. His human form is a lithe, light-browned skinned boy standing at about 5'6'' in height, with black hair and eyes.

Name:
Suba

Age:
15

Gender:
Female

Race:
Kataw

Race Information:
Katal are the nobility of the Philippine waters. Though there are other water dwelling monsters, such as the Sirena, Sireno and Siyokoy, it is the Kataw who are acknowledge as their rulers and the Bantay Tubig -- or Water Guardians. They have much the same abilities as their subjects, such as being able to breathe underwater, emit a sonic scream to paralyze foes, but what truly distinguishes them is their astounding ability to manipulate the element of water itself, and even transform it into ice. Unlike their counterparts, they do not have fins and instead have human legs, though they retain gills at the side of their neck and have fins in their arms and hands.
They do not posses any other abilities asides from these, meaning their physical strength is relative to humans of their age and build. While heat is not deadly to Katal, it is an encumbrance to the them as they easily dehydrate.

Appearance:
Her human appearance is that of a light-brown skinned girl, with black long hair and eyes. She stands at 4'10''. Her monster form is much like her human form, only her skin is covered in glittering scales and her arms and hands develop webs and fins, while the gills around her neck are revealed.

Backstory:
A true-blue princess, Suba is not only mermaid nobility -- she's mermaid royalty. As the youngest daughter of the Baybay-Hilaga Clan, she was the pampered baby of the family, well loved and showered with attention. Unfortunately, with her clan caught up in a massive war, her father, Datu Puti, decided that the only way to keep her safe was to send her away, to someplace where she would be safe. Yokai Academy seemed like the best option; it was a place where she could still continue her education, while at the same time keep her safe from the ongoing conflict.

Bio:
Suba can be summed up in two words: Spoiled Sweet. She's been treated to everything she's ever wanted her entire life, and is in fact, quite spoiled, naive, and even shallow, however, she's fine with sharing what she has -- even if she comes of sometimes as insensitive or a braggart -- and is generally a nice and loving person. Not to mention really, really, ignorant about the value of money . . . or material wealth in general. Conversely, she sees that value of other things more clearly than others, such as the value in bonds, family, and love.

@olcharlieboi

I just want to double check and make sure I am understanding. While the characters are at school they must stay in human form? Which means for mine no ears or tails correct?
