[agentmanatee]

[Framing A Moose]

@Azure Sea@agentmanatee

Alrighty then, I'm just going to step in as Moosey the Great Peacemaker and explain why Agent's semblance might be viewed as a bit OP. The idea of being able to become freakishly strong and able to shrug off most hits is a bit much. However, as the Great Peacemaker, I am not taking sides. I think that Agent's semblance would be okay if it was something she could only do for, like a few minutes every day. But that's just me.

[agentmanatee]

@Framing A Moose Well I always meant for it to be a super temporary thing like Yangs semblance, sorry if that didn't come across... Assuming thats the problem... I still don't know 100%

[Framing A Moose]

@Azure Sea
Shouldn't we sort out relationships and teams and stuff?

[Azure Sea]

@Framing A Moose that's exactly my issue with the semblance lol also as for the relationships and teams yeah we should as it is my char is separated from everyone during the fighting and is now almost literally jumping at shadows lol the only one that might have issues is the 18 and 20 year old due to them being in separate year then the rest of us who are first years XD

His right arm has a tattoo of a King Taijitu staring from his shoulder and wrapping around his arm with the mouth open about to devour his hand.

Black jeans, black and white Nike sneakers, and around his neck is a necklace with his emblem on it.

Emblem:

Theme:

Kingdom of Origin: Vale (Moon Blood village outside of Vale)

Personality:
Seth is a kindhearted individual who wants to see people happy and keep others safe. He strives to make everyone around him feel as peaceful as possible. However, his true personality is masked by his fake personality he actually shows everyone. To anyone around him Seth comes off as rude, a jerk, and someone who people don’t like to be around. He does this because he fears that his Semblance will activate and he’d attack those around him. He pushes people away because he fears he’ll hurt someone around him. So he created a nasty personality to keep people safe from himself.

History:
Seth was raised by the Moon Bloods: a clan of wolf Faunus that lives in a small village outside the city of Vale. Dagger, the leader of the Moon Bloods and a few other clan members found Seth on the path to the village after they had finished hunting for food and herbs. Seth was only three months old and sleeping inside a cardboard box. Dagger had considered leaving Seth to the elements until Serenity offered to take care of him. Dagger knew that she had recently lost her son and husband to a pack of Grimm and agreed. Even though Serenity took care of Seth like he was her own son, Seth seemed to find his way into Dagger’s hut and fall asleep on the sheep skin rug in front of the fire pit. Even though Dagger originally saw Seth as another mouth to feed and an outsider, Dagger seemed to imprint on him and he took Seth under his wing.

Dagger acted as Seth’s father and taught him the ways of the Moon Bloods. When Seth turned 12, Dagger introduced him to the Moon Bloods way of fighting called Wolf Combat: a cross between mixed martial arts and parkour. The fighting style tapped into their animal instincts to detect danger from affair and neutralize it. However, because this form of combat was crafted to be used by wolf Faunus, Seth had a hard time learning it. It took him 5 years to finally get to a high enough level to be considered a hunter in the pack. However, even though he was a candidate to be part of the hunting pack, he still needed to go through initiation. Seth could feel the butterflies in his stomach as he stood outside the forest with some of the hunting pack. The initiation called for the candidates to travel into the woods with the hunting pack and slay their first Grimm.

Seth traveled through the woods with the pack in search of Grimm. He knew the larger the Grimm the more probability he would be accepted into the pack. However, he also knew: the bigger the Grimm, the less likely he’d make it out alive. Dagger had given Seth the very same weapons he had used when he went through initiation. Two yoyo chainsaws called Wolf Bite Yoyos. Seth and the rest of the pack stopped when they heard a twig snap, then creaking; finally he turned when he heard a massive thud. Standing where the tree had fallen was a pack of Ursas. The hunting pack readied their weapons and howled as they rushed the Grimm. Seth followed suit and attacked the first Ursa he could find by flung his yoyos at the creature. The chainsaw blades moved to the outer radius of the yoyos and began to spin just before they connected with the flesh of the Ursa. The creature roared and swiped at the strings, but Seth pulled back the yoyos before the Ursa’s claws could strike. The chainsaw blades retracted back into the yoyo so Seth could catch them.

The monster roared and rushed at Seth, but the Ursa’s path was blocked when another of its kin fell in front of it with its head cut off. Seth looked to this left and smiled when he saw Dagger holding the dead Ursa’s head. Seeing him able to take down one of the creatures gave Seth a bit more confidence. He waited for the Ursa to get close and when it swiped at Seth he dodged and attacked the Grimm bear with a furry of kicks and punches. The Ursa suddenly back handed Seth into a tree and all Seth remembered was the hit and then darkness. When Seth came to, he found he was lying in a bed in the medical hut back at the village. His left arm was wrapped in bandages and the rest of his body had bandages here and there with his ribs fully wrapped. He sat up and felt a sharp pain rush through his ribs. He sat in bed for a few seconds to let the pain subside before he was able to stand up.

When he walked outside, he saw the hunting pack had skinned three of the Ursas and was starting on the final one. However, when they saw Seth they seemed to go on the defensive which caused Seth to step back. He didn’t understand why they were looking at him like he was a Grimm. Dagger had walked out of his hut and quickly calmed down the hunting pack before asking Seth to meet him in the medical hut. When he followed Dagger back into the hut, Dagger explained why the hunting pack was scared of Seth.

According to Dagger when the Ursa knocked Seth out, it activated his Semblance. Which caused Seth to become a wild animal and attack the Ursa, but no matter how many strikes the Ursa took. The creature wouldn’t go down. However, Dagger said that there was a sickly green aura around Seth that acted like armor and when the Ursa hit the aura. Cuts formed on Seth’s body, but it seemed Seth didn’t feel the pain being caused to his body. Also, it seemed with each cut, Seth grew more and more insane. Dagger could tell Seth couldn’t bring down the Grimm alone so Dagger and a few others in the hunting pack helped to take the creature down. However, when the creature was finally taken down. Seth suddenly attacked Dagger and the rest of the pack like he thought they too were Grimm.

Dagger and the rest of the pact were caught off guard by his attack and before they could subdue him, Seth had injured two of the hunting pack members. Dagger said that once the aura around Seth broke. He stopped attacking them and fell unconscious. When Dagger finished, Seth’s hands were shacking. He’d never think of attacking anyone in the village. He saw them as his family, but why would he attack them without reason? Dagger told Seth he had an inner primal rage that seemed to come out when his Semblance was activated. The problem was that Seth couldn’t control when his Semblance could be turned on or off. The thought that it might turn on while he is a sleep scared him to the bone. Dagger handed Seth a flyer for an academy that trained hunters and huntresses. Dagger told Seth that this academy would help with both his inner primal rage and the control of his Semblance.

Two Wolf Bite Yoyos

Version 1: Normal Yoyos (Without Chainsaw blades around the outside) (Dust compatible)
Version 2: Chainsaw yoyos (Blades are on the outside of yoyos) (Not dust compatible)
Version 3: N/A

Semblance:
No pain no Gain: Seth’s Semblance turns off the pain receptors in both his mind and his nerves so he can fight longer and hard without feeling pain. His Semblance allows his Aura to coat him like armor so he can take more hits and dish more out. Once the aura armor is broken, his Semblance is terminated until he is able to regain enough stamina to reuse it. However, his Semblance is a double edged sword because once activated it triggers something in his mental state that causes him to go mad and attack anything and everything around him. His Semblance taps into his animal instincts and along with his madness he becomes a feral beast and losses all his humanity.

@Azure Sea
Actually, first years are supposed to be 17 and 18.

[agentmanatee]

@Azure Sea So with a 'can only hold it up for a few minutes a day' It'll be fine?

[Azure Sea]

@Azure Sea So with a 'can only hold it up for a few minutes a day' It'll be fine?

@agentmanatee

just put up a time limit and due to the stress it puts on his body to use he can only use it for only that time limit without injuring himself in the form of torn muscles

[Azure Sea]

@Rex*blinks* wow that's and interesting char but wouldn't the mad berserker/enhancement along with the turning off of his pain receptors also meant that once he stops using his semblance he feels everything at once? i'm alil worried you char is a masochist ^^' as a Semblance is the reflection of your soul

[agentmanatee]

<Snipped quote by agentmanatee>

@Azure Sea

Perfect! Will edit once I get home

EDIT: Why u using he and his and him? Febe is a girl...

[Framing A Moose]

@Azure Sea
Hey, so did the 16 year olds get bumped up a year?

[Azure Sea]

@agentmanateesorry force of habbit
@Framing A Moose *tilts head* you mean my char who's got fake ID and papers stating she's 17 instead of 16 or the lightning dust using girl?

[Framing A Moose]

@Azure Sea
The girl with the dust.

Also, are we just going to figure out the teams amongst ourselves?

[RumikoOhara]

@Azure Sea@Framing A Moose

Okay I was going to save it for later but it has come up so I'll say that to Xander's people she is only 16 because her people don't celebrate birthdays on the very day they were born but on the New Year which is still 8 months away but she would be thought of as 17 for three months now

[Framing A Moose]

@RumikoOhara
Well, that still brings up a bit of a problem. If her people celebrate every birthday on New Year's Day, then she would actually be younger than her official birthday would say. So if she celebrates her birthday on New Year's Day, but she was actually born a few months before that, then she's one year old, even though she hasn't been alive for one year. So the way you have it has your character as officially 16 but actually only 15 and a few months. You understand what I'm getting at?
