[Zelosse]

@PyroDash888 Iuhno. I eat crayons? lol

[Dark Lady]

@Zelosse Have you taken a glance at my character sheets?

[Zelosse]

@Dark Lady The last time I glanced at them they looked unfinished. No detail with just a single image.

Are they complete?

[Ookawa]

@Zelosse I sent it to you via PM

Question though:
Should I post it here, in the OOC for everybody to yell at me as well?
Edit:

You know what? Frick it, I'm gonna post it here, too now.

Thora Herschel

Thora Herschel

Age:

14

Element:

Water
(Though currently she can only use her element through the contraptions she builds)

Appearance:

Thora Stands at a measly 4'9", though her height does not bother her at all, she likes being small as it allows her more flexibility in her repairs.

Personality:

One thing that is immediately noticeable when encountering Thora is, that she is silent. According to her life's motto, every word you speak, is a breath you could have saved for actually doing something productive. Now that she has lived so long under that motto already, it is hard for her to talk at all. Instead, she will use gestures to communicate or, in the extremest circumstances, she might use a single word or two.
This, of course, makes her seem cold, distant and aloof, which is only partly true.
It might be right, that she is usually quite distant, but she is, to the extend that is possible for somebody who doesn't speak, fairly caring towards people that managed to creep into her heart.
Those people will, then, also get physical attention from her, aka pats on the back or even a hug or two.

Another reason why she can seem distant, is her desire to constantly tinker with something. From fixing tech-stuff to building her own contraptions, which can seem very steampunk-y. In these, she uses her water abilities to pump the water through pipes and valves to generate force or power for whatever the purpose of her machines.
Outside of these contraptions, her elemental abilities are very limited, which, despite her seemingly being content with just her contraptions, annoys her a lot.

Even though she doesn't talk, she can be very vocal about her annoyances, letting out disgruntled noises and having a quite expressive face, though, she more often than not looks miffed, even if she isn't really.

History:

Born in northern Germany to a family of engineers, Thora grew up travelling around the world with her parents and being along a lot of the times. As such, she, from a young age on, had to learn to be self-sufficient. At some point, when she was around eight, she started to tinker on old electronic devices her parents did not need anymore as a distraction and to waste some time. Never did she know before, that it would be so much fun for her and became almost her entire day from that point on.
Although both her parents were rarely around, her father and mother were both proud of her and, in their spare time, taught her a lot of the things she might need to know.
It was during that time, that she started to construct things on her own. At some point, she realized, she could manipulate water to some degree, but a lot more when she used it in the things she built.
Of course, she was rather unaware of the consequences her abilities could bring her, but nobody, not even her parents noticed for a while, as her powers were too weak to notice outside her contraptions.

One day, though, not long after she turned fourteen, her mother, understandably quite shocked, found her fiddling with a metal press she built herself which was physically being powered by her water ability.
Scared of anybody else finding out her powers, they decided, with a heavy heart, to send her to the Academy for training and, especially, safekeeping.

Equipment:

Her trusty box of her favourite tools

There. ^.^

@Crusader Lord@Pseudo Stygian just posted in the longest time (sorry). Also sorry if it was short compared to what I normally post as I’m currently typing on tablet and I’m kinda in the middle of something as well. Hopefully I’m finished by tomorrow so I can post better ^u^

@PyroDash888

I feel like Thora and Ethan would get along very well with their love of tinkering. (That is, if they can ever actually talk to each other.)

@Awesomoman64

Well, I never said that Thora was shy xP
So, no problems on her end. She just doesn't really bother xD

@PyroDash888

Yeah but Ethan is. So it's a case of "afraid to approach" and "doesn't care to approach". True masters of communication we got right here.

@Awesomoman64

For one it is going to be awkward, for the other it isn't at all xD

[Zelosse]

Already sent my thoughts on the cs via pm.

[Feisty-Pants]

Is this still open? I'd love to make a teacher.

[Ookawa]

By the way, guys... if you ever find out who my inspiration for Thora was, you get a cookie. A very nice cookie ^.^

[Zelosse]

@Feisty-Pants No Mercy mains Go right ahead.

@PyroDash888 Some nerd. I'll take my cookie now.

[Ookawa]

@Zelosse

Nope ;P

[Zelosse]

Still waiting for students to designate whether they want player or npc.

On a related note, if any teachers are interested in participating in combat against other teachers please let me know.

[Arya10108909]

@ZelosseGideon would try... But he wouldn't fight fair. Also, I'm not a particularly good fight writer. (Read as: I will be a fall-back person, but don't depend on me.)

[Zelosse]

@Arya10108909 you'll be fiiiiiine

On another note, I should bring Vera down too, probably tomorrow.

PEOPLE!

Our Father Zel demands to know whether you shall fight a PC or an NPC.

If you haven't been so gracious as to answer the question yet, please do so.

Tanks.

[Zelosse]

To those of you who already have, you know who you are, please go about your business until the appointed time.
