[OOC] In the Name of the Empress

[Lekkuen]

Let's wait a bit and see how we start first

[Cake]

We need more peeps.

[Lekkuen]

Yeah. Someone is working on a sheet, but we do need a couple more.

[Iluvatar]

Okay, how many people actually watched the video in my CS?

[Cake]

I watched the show already

[Iluvatar]

Okay then, I think that constitutes watching the video :D

[Lekkuen]

I have as well.

If anyone knows any one who may be interested, send them a link.

[Lekkuen]

Some more stuff incoming, and then I'll fish around for more people.

[Iluvatar]

I tried to contact a friend, but I don't know if they got it yet. Hopefully, they will soon :D

[Card Captor]

I think this might be a good place to use this character idea I've had for awhile

Full Name: Leona

Alias: The Radiant Dawn

Title: None

Race: Zhuni

Gender: Male

Age: 13

Height: 4'9

Weight: 117 lb

Tail Count (If Xerin):

Home Town and kingdom: Targon...maybe

Occupation: Does odd jobs just to make ends meet

Family: Unknown

Social Status: Not much of one considering he's an orphan who's too busy working to go to some sort of school

Affiliations: None

Appearance:

Personality: Leona is a very sweet and affectionate boy. He would rather spend time with friends or cooking then fighting any day. While his ability to construct chi barriers is far beyond others his age, it has just as much to do with his pacifist nature as it does his chi's natural affinity for barriers. He loves to cook for other people and watch the smile that eating his food puts on their face

Personal Philosophy summed up in 1-2 sentences: Hurting other people is scary

Training:(if any): Received training from the Order of the Sun

Magical proficiency: None

Chi proficiency and Techniques: Being blessed by the sun, Leona's chi is a beautiful gold color. Being highly durable, it's very effective at creating barriers, and it is also resistant to direct attack. When his chi touches someone else's, it becomes pacified. Soothed by the suns warm embrace, it is capable of calming the chi of even the most bloodthirsty person. However this leave Leona unable to use his own chi. While he does posses some offensive skills, he never uses them because of his personality

Weapons/Gear: None

Skills: Cooking

Other abilities: None

Weaknesses: Has little to no offensive skills

Back story: Currently on the run from a group of monks known as the Order of the Sun

Other: Has a love of soft and fuzzy things

[Iluvatar]

The Order of the Sun? That sounds like something related to fire. I wonder what association they will have with the Water Shamans?

*raises questioning eyebrow*

[Lekkuen]

Tell me more about this Order of sun. And being able to instantly pacify people is a bit to much for a boy.

Also put some more factions up

Not people, just their chi. Making it much harder for said chi to be used violently. It doesn't do anything to people who fight without chi

The Order of the Sun is a sect of Monks that worship the sun. They see the sun as something that chases away the evils of night. And like their belief that the light is absolute good, and the night is absolute evil, they have a very black and white view on morality. You're either a good person, or your wicked. There's no in between. I'd add more, but it's tied into Leona's backstory, which I don't want to give just yet

[Iluvatar]

Maybe they're an offshoot of the main Zhu culture, similar to the 'Tribals'? Just to avoid sounding like heretics to the majority.

Just a note to everyone, hopefully something about the Water Shamans will be posted soon. Lekkuen and I are discussing details through PMs.

Well the thing is, even simple physical actions use chi.

So this is an underground cult, or foreign religion?

Maybe I wasn't clear enough (for which I apologies). Pacifying someone's chi just prevents it from being used in a directly violent manor. Using chi to enhance your body so that you can punch down a wall, indirectly violent; the chi is just strengthening your body. Shooting a chi blast, poisoning someone, causing any sort of harm to anyone or thing; directly violent. Also, it requires his chi to come into direct contact with the other persona's chi, which usually means physical contact. This isn't meant to be useful, it's just there to inform his character. Just like the offensive powers he has; I mentioned them in his CS, but he's never going to use them

I didn't want to say this so soon (I was planing for this to be a big reveal of sorts), but it's an underground cult desguised as a foreign religion

[Cake]

How is are characters going to work togehter on anything.

Ones literaly nickanamed for being a the ultimate darkness. Mine may not directly hate ligt but she defintaly folows the pass of shado

[Card Captor]

I suppose figuring that out would be half the fun

[Cake]

I can't wait to see your cult leader, and say heres your higher power...

Her sort of ultimate requires taking off her mask and is a strong illusionary magic mixed with her dark chi.

[Iluvatar]

I think Su (and the Water Shamans) may end up being a foreign species (presumably roughly human in appearance) who worship the possibly deceased Sea god Narverking.
