[OOC] Ignite Heart! A Magical Girl RP

[Write]

My apologies for taking so long to post, I'm working on it right now. I don't think you need to reboot but I'm the freshest member so don't let me take too much sway in your opinion.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Consistency trumps quantity.

[ACHTUNG]

I'm not one for a reboot since we literally have spent less than 24 hours ingame. You could however re-advertise for more people.
If you do still decide to reboot, I'd still get in it with the same lass.

[VitaVitaAR]

Hmm, I was considering rebooting both to get more people and to hopefully reinvigorate some of the players, but if everyone doesn't think it's necessary... hm.

[TheHangedMan]

@VitaVitaAR My character sheet from 3 months ago still hasn't been reviewed and I'm still waiting, if it's any help :D

[VitaVitaAR]

@TheHangedMan: Oh shoot I think I forgot about it. ^^;

I'll try and get that done soon sorry.

[TheHangedMan]

Name:
Kaneko Yuri

Magical Girl Title:
Golden Flower

Age:
16

Gender:
"Is this even a question?"

Appearance:
Tall for her age, with shoulder length brown hair that she often ties into a ponytail. She has almond shaped eyes with somewhat thick eyebrows, and a constant smirk/grin on her face, depending on present company. Somewhat muscular and stocky, though with noticeably ample bust and blessed figure. She has two noticeable scars - one across the side of her neck, and one stretching from her collarbone down to her chest, though the latter isn't visible with clothes on.

Usually wears a tank-top and jacket with short-shorts, though sometimes she switches to jeans and sweaters on particularly chilly days. Has a habit of not wearing a bra, due to finding the damn things too annoying to deal with, unless someone close to her insists.

Magical Girl Appearance:
Her magical girl appearance is a simple, short red kimono with a large golden lily on the back, and golden flame trims on the sleeve and back. The kimono is open at the front and tied around the waist, and the sleeve of the right arm looks as though it was torn off. Her chest is wrapped in golden sarashi. She has gold-colored thigh-highs, and is wearing red single-stilted geta.

Personality:
FOR Yuri, strength is everything. Of course, her definition of strength is somewhat nebulous, so when asked what is strength for her one is likely to receive a different answer every time, but nevertheless, her pursuit of strength is what defines her. She respects an abundance of it, and disdains a lack of it - and does so openly and without hesitation. Some would say she's an honest girl, while others would call her arrogant; it doesn't matter to Yuri, as the truth has always been far simpler:

She lives the way she wants to, with little regard for others opinions or beliefs.

HER motivations aside, she's someone who enjoys a challenge, and her favorite method of enjoying herself is none other than battle. Whether it be against Negari or other magical girls, the thrill she gets from pitched, high-stakes combat is perhaps unmatched among all other magical girls. In fact, among her peers, she's infamous for her reputation as an unrepentant combat junkie. Of course, this attitude extends to actions outside of combat, and in every aspect of her life, Yuri will undoubtedly give it her all if it means overcoming what she deems a challenge. In that sense, for Yuri, it's all or nothing. If something fails to garner her interest, then it may as well not exist for her; if does, however, then she's prepared to go above and beyond the norm.

SOMEWHAT predictably, she's often at odds with other magical girls, as unlike the majority of them, her sense of right and wrong is somewhat skewed - though not nonexistent. Blatant acts of injustice and evil will hardly get a pass from her, but beyond irredeemable crimes, she will tend to ignore them in favor of her own pursuits.

IN terms of relationships, Yuri is hardly what one would call a good friend, but neither is she someone that one would regret having at their side. It is simply that meeting the requirements for her to consider someone her friend sets the bar high enough, sustaining those requirements would be considerably more difficult to those unprepared. To those that she does consider friends though, she is ready to assist no matter what the trouble is, even if her assistance might not always be the most comfortable thing to have.

All-in-all, the Golden Flower is the flower that blooms freely, unhindered by weather or war.

Skills:

• Even in her human guise, Yuri is a beast in a melee, so much so that those that have had the misfortune to feel her skill first-hand wonder if she's doing drugs. She's not formally trained in martial arts, but her instinct combined with a lifetime of picking fights have led her to develop her own fighting style.
• She's also an above average cook - out of necessity more than anything. Following a self-imposed diet is easier when you're the one doing the cooking, and if one has to cook, they may as well make it taste good.
• She's also smarter than many give her credit for. More street smart than book smart, but she's no slouch in either department.

Abilities:
- As Golden Flower she's acquired physical abilities that eclipse that of the normal enhancements of magical girls, giving her strength and endurance far above the regular magical girl, such that she is usually able to bulldoze her way through regular Negari.

- Asides from her physical capabilities, she can wreathe a golden flame across her body that fans of hers have given the moniker "Golden Empress Aura". In simple terms, it completely nullifies any attempts to bind or move her. She cannot be pushed, pulled, tied or constricted, etc; however, it does not work as a physical barrier for damage of any kind, so in some cases it may actually work to her detriment - attacks that her body might have instinctively dodged, or otherwise mitigated slightly, will instead take the full brunt of it. So while she may not be pushed by an incoming flying car, she sure as heck is going to feel it.

Weapon(s):
Her only weapon, which is a single gigantic, pile-bunker-esque gauntlet that can be used to briefly enhance a single punch to reach levels above her already insane strength before being discarded for twenty-four hours, or otherwise as just a really big metal fist to hit things with. More often than not just used as a trump card and rarely taken out for regular use. She's given it the name "Mountain Breaker".

Brief History:
THE daughter of a construction worker and a school teacher, it is unknown just where exactly her rather tyrannical mentality came from. If one asked her, and if she felt like answering, then she would say that she could trace it back to the day she was kidnapped.

IT was an incident her parents never knew about, a crime that resolved before it could even become a crime. The details of what happened are known only to her, and she's never openly discussed what transpired, but whatever happened changed her way of viewing life.

SINCE then, she'd developed a habit of starting fights. When she lost for the first time, she developed a secondary habit of winning fights. Eventually, her infamy spread, to the point where even most delinquents avoided her out of fear; those that didn't, quickly fell in line with the rest.

SHE met Frudie when the latter was being chased by a Negari. The poor fairy contracted the first person she met who had the potential. It could have been anyone, really. This time, it just so happened to be Yuri, who was on her way from a back-alley brawl.

WHAT happened next, according to the fairy, was the most one-sided and anti-climactic beat-down of the century.

IT's been three years since then, and she's only been making a bigger name for herself in the process, though not the kind of name that Frudie approved of, much to the little fairy's dismay.

Fairy Name:
Frudie (Froo-dee-eh)

Fairy Appearance:
A constantly depressed looking fairy, with long blue hair, lavender-colored eyes, who is usually dressed in a long white and elegant gown and elbow length white gloves, and a short blue cape.

Fairy Personality:
Before meeting Yuri, she was bumbling and somewhat overenthusiastic fairy, especially in terms of finding a partner to contract; she had a rather low sense of self-esteem as well, not being one of the more 'talented' fairies, nor was she exceptionally attractive. After contracting with Yuri, however, due her constantly having to deal with her contractors . . . 'independent' attitude has sapped her of energy and instilled within her a habit of lamenting her ill-fortune. Still, she is loyal to Yuri and despite what she says outwardly, is in fact more than satisfied with and very proud of her partner.

@VitaVitaAR lemme save you the trouble of going through ever page looking for it :)

[ACHTUNG]

Damn... It was that far back?

[TheHangedMan]

Damn... It was that far back?

@ACHTUNG

Yep. I was just waiting and when no reply came the RP got buried and I forgot about it completely :P Then I assumed it was either dead or full, so I didn't check for updates.

[ACHTUNG]

I could distinctly remember giving Vita a poke about it as well...

Also in any case Vita, If you get around to examinin HangedMan's character you'd do well to update the first post of the character listings...

@VitaVitaAR

[VitaVitaAR]

@TheHangedMan: Hmm... I'm a little concerned by the sheer amount of power you state she has over other magical girls, in terms of all her baseline buffs. Quintuple's quite a bit difference.

[TheHangedMan]

@VitaVitaAR I could change it to quadruple? I'm not sure how strong the base magical girl is, so I used my imagination. I'm not really big on numbers and all; quintuple is just to get the point across that even if she has no esoteric abilities, Yuri is really, really good at breaking things.

[VitaVitaAR]

@TheHangedMan: To be fair it's not exactly a hard and fast baseline. Some magical girls are naturally stronger or faster in their base buffs.

@VitaVitaAR

Yeah, so I guess quintuple doesn't really mean anything. Like I said, I just wanted to get a point across. Anyway, changed it to:

"As Golden Flower she's acquired physical abilities that eclipse that of the normal enhancement of magical girls, giving her strength, endurance, speed and an over-all physical capability, that makes her, in most straightforward engagements, unmatched."

[VitaVitaAR]

@TheHangedMan: It's no necessarily any fault of your own and more past experiences, but outshining everyone in every category makes me a little wary. ^^;

Would you mind picking one or two to focus on that she really outdoes everyone?

@VitaVitaAR

Would power and durability suffice? She'd only be a bit faster than average, but nothing spectacular. I'm putting a lot of focus on her physical aspects as she really has no other abilities.

[VitaVitaAR]

That works.

In any case if people don't think there needs to be a reboot I'll try and get a post done in the next day or so, maybe earlier.

[TheHangedMan]

@VitaVitaAR Thanks a bunch! I'll add her to the CS tab now?

[ACHTUNG]

If you need to get some people... Do a bump post on it's interest check and/or advertise somewhere...

[Eventua]

Tempted to apply as a magical girl who acts like a jerk to normals in order to summon Nagari, which she can capture/control using string of some sort and then contain within special boxes. Has fans who are largely anonymous since most people see her as kind of an asshole.

She's technically creating Nagari she can understand - by being the cause of their existence - and thus can use them as weapons against other Nagari, but she kind of enjoys it for its own sake, too. Especially when they start to rebel - that's when the real fun begins, after all.

NOTE: Not generally a jerk to other MGs.
