Well, I did my best

It might not be as fancy looking as the others but I just want to see if you think he's worthy of being accepted...

---

Name: Paedan Vustadael
Age: 36
Allegiance: Church of the White(renounced)
Position: Great Holy Knight(refers to himself as a Knight-Errant now)
Height: 6' 11"
Weight: 219lbs
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Platinum, one could assume he was blind at a quick glance
Gender: Male
Written Appearance: Paedan stands very tall, growth he still likes to attribute to becoming a Holy Knight, but he's not that muscular. The only real mystic thing about his face is his eyes, if one doesn't assume he's blind they can make him seem a bit sagely, otherwise he has short, somewhat messy hair, white skin, and a goatee. When not in his armor he will usually wear a simple grey shirt with long sleeves and trousers, he usually keeps his greaves on and will also wear a travelling cloak if he's somewhere cold.

Personality: Paedan used to want nothing but strength, power, and would do anything to get it, but that was when he was young and meek. Now, despite his intimidating presence, he could actually be considered rather jovial and he does try to be friendly, though he is a bit of an "actions not words" type of person. Even though he achieved the strength he had always wanted he does not overtly try to flaunt it but does welcome challenges that will test it, but if he feels he is being drained of it he becomes enraged and will go bezerk, lashing out to try and stop whatever is weakening him.

Background: Paedan joined young, during a time when the Holy Knights were happy to accept anyone who would follow and fight for them. His reason for joining was simple: Power. He was a meek, small thing when he joined and was almost turned away were it not that he could still die in place of someone important. He was determined, however, and managed to claw his way to through harsh training to prove himself worthy of being made a proper knight and claiming the power he had sought after...and It was everything he hoped, He was powerful, respected, his name would become enough to make men tremble and the sight of him could break the will of even the most resolute of warriors. He was content.

He never had much stock in the gods, never even really believed in a "good" or an "evil", just that the world had to follow the ideals of it's most powerful people, and for now that seemed to be The Holy Knights. While he was in service to them he chose to stay around the kingdom of his origin, Winslet, operating mainly in that region and even becoming somewhat of a friend to the royalty there. Despite his allegiance to the Knights he was bothered when they came and took over the kingdom, without the ability to oppose the Knights at large the best he could do was make sure the royal family was treated well though this had the unfortunate side effect of making the knights suspicious of where his loyalty lies, and rightly so to be honest. When the princess disappeared they assumed he had something to do with it and a few days later a few knights made an attempt on his life, it may have failed but he had slain several Holy Knights and he knew they would not forgive that, not that it mattered, he renounced his allegiance to both them and The White god.

Current Story: Betrayed and exiled, Paedan's intention is to track down the Winslet princess, if only to help her reclaim her kingdom to spite the Holy Knights. Escaping their notice was simple, he may have had a reputation but it was attributed to the face of his helmet so a simple change of armor, or even to walk around out of armor, was all he needed, though he still made sure to get something imposing, though with no idea what the princess was doing all he could do was pose as a wandering adventure-seeker while keeping his ear out for any sign of her.

Weapon: Paedan's Arc does not have a special name and appears to be a simple greatsword, albeit with a wider and longer blade than normal. It has the ability to create shockwaves with it's hits, fairly devastating in a direct hit on an opponent but if used on the ground it can create a tremor in front of him that can knock opponent off their feet. When charged with his blackfire flames will cascade out along with the tremor.

Ability: Blackfire - originally whitefire, these flames normally burst forth from his hands to incinerate opponents, though he could get creative with it's use to catch his opponent of guard it remains a short range attack and won't reach farther than a few feet from him. He can imbue the fire onto his weapon for a time to increase it's damage potential. This power should have waned when he turned away from the Holy Knights but he clung desperately to it and now, even drained of their light as they are, the flames still burn just as hot.

[Holy Soldier]

@ZetsukoHe's still supposed to be with the Church of the White. Him leaving the church is to be RPed out in game. So he is still an enemy until such a situation happens that would cause him to leave.

[Zetsuko]

@Holy Soldier ah, that's what I was confused about before.

I had a few ideas I just had to figure out which one I wanted and was able to build on

[Rin]

Unfortunately I am going to have to rescind my interest. I'm sorry about this, but I hope things go well for everyone else.

@The ghost in black Shakita: *picks Feras up like a puppy* You smoll, Fe. Smoll enough to fit in mah pocket! *Puts Feras in her bag, which somehow defies all logic* :D

@DeathXtheXTree

Feras: *laughs and pokes head up and out of the side of the bag just like a puppy* you know you could have just asked if I wanted in your pouch Shakita, I would have said yes but it's just polite. *pulls herself up a little higher to rest arms on rim or bag*

@floodtalonI cannot guarantee reservations get a slot in this game. These players went through a rigorous selection process. Unless you are 100% certain that you can write up a CS for whichever sin and get it approved, then by all means.

@Holy Soldier

I completely understand and will do my absolute best to create a character worthy of this wonderful idea you've created. I absolutely love The Seven Deadly Sins and have been wanting to join an RP based off of it for a while now.

[GreenGoat]

@Holy Soldier Would you mind terribly should I app another CS, as one of the Holy Knights?

[Holy Soldier]

@GreenGoatThere was already supposed to be 2 HKs applying. General Scales was the second person interested. Did you just really want one or something?

[Holy Soldier]

@floodtalonWell whatever one you want/hoping to fall out lol, go ahead and make a CS for that Sin.

[GreenGoat]

@Holy Soldier Bugger, had it in my head that the twin mages CS were the HK CSes. Simple mistake, carry on.

[Holy Soldier]

@GreenGoatYeah they were extras. Shame that they didn't want to just change the non-elemental spells to something else.

[Rin]

@Holy Soldier...This is the only time I'm going to speak up about this and I'm going to leave the thread after this, but it was less that and more the fact that you were incredibly obtuse about what the entire problem was, had some really bizarre, specific and unintuitive ideas about things that you never mentioned beforehand, the fact that you kept saying things in an incredibly confusing manner leading to neither me nor Vita knowing what the problem even was, and when asked for clarification you were kind of rude. ^^;

I just didn't feel like I was going to enjoy the RP with that kind of treatment, sorry. Anyways, like I said, just going to leave it at that. Hope things work out for everyone else though.

[Holy Soldier]

@RinI actually clarified everything and told you exactly what I didn't want. I can't do anything about people who overthink what the sentences are specifically saying. I keep things pretty simple here. I even told you before you and her even started the project that I do not want "wizards, witches, sorcerers, etc." You saying that she's a Black Mage and then giving her the exact same spells as a wizard, witch, sorcerer, etc. What was the point of me asking you guys to categorize the mage category if we weren't even going to do it?

You might as well call every sorcerer in existence a Black Mage because based on your definition "capable of using offensive magic" that is like every wizard in existence except for those mages specifically categorized for specific jobs. I even suggested going with the Final Fantasy theme because it makes the Black Mage class way more specific than the D&D one. Because even D&D said that the Black Mage class was a broad class. Instead, you guys wanted to argue with me and that is basically all that happened. I gave you guys suggestions and you didn't want to do it. You wanted to just argue. I told you "I do not want non-elemental magic in this game." So...time to pick elemental spells. That's what you should have immediately got out of that. But you want to do what you want to do and it's not going to work for this game.

Since what I was saying wasn't getting through to you guys, I stopped caring and I was like "Bye." Because I can't do anything about people who overthink the basics. There are a few people on this site that do that and when they come along, I turn them around because it's just not going to work. They make their lives harder than it really is and then they bring drama to my games for no reason. Everything is all fine and dandy until people like that come along.

[Flood]

@floodtalonWell whatever one you want/hoping to fall out lol, go ahead and make a CS for that Sin.

@Holy Soldier

Just to be clear, I was supposed to go to the Interest Check to post a CS right? That beginning bit about reserving a role was confusing to me.

[Gowi]

All these “I’m going to reserve a slot for a Sin!” people are going to feel real awkward when the sin they are applying for has posted in the IC and established in-game continuity and thus difficult to retcon. Honestly, I really don’t understand the sentiment of lingering in the background when the actual player playing the slot is right there in the OOC active and participating. I imagine it’s pretty harrowing for the players who have that over their shoulder and I know if I was put in that situation I would not be too thrilled or amicable about it.

Anyway, as per RP updates— I’m still waiting for HowlsOfWinter to reply to my message.
