[OOC] War Notes

[KoL]

That reminds me. Are we missing any specializations so to speak or lacking in some department?

@Bushman501

I think that ranged attack power is probably the thing that this group lacks the most after a few drops, but I still say that we are kind of balanced at the time. So, you can do whatever is it that you feel like doing.

[KoL]

@Skepic

You are free to post now. Consider that your character arrived along with the Princess' escort.

@Crimmy

I didn't do the time skip yet on this last post, so you are free to do whatever is it that you were thinking before. I'll move us to the evening at the village maybe this weekend.

[Bushman501]

@TheWindel Like a medical person, tactician, support, etc.

@KoL

Ah, ranged. My favorite. Sniping sounds fun.

um, guys?

[Mercurial]

@DracoLunaris We're an Empire, and we all know Empires are always evil. This was an inevitable conclusion.

*Drops some notes on the floor by 'accident'* "Oops! Where did that came from?"

[Leotamer]

Have you seen our characters?

[Lonewolf685]

@KoL

So the cadets are sent off to relax with all expenses covered, and the garrison stays and works double time...

Yeah, that Sergeant is sooooooo ambushing Esther for some revenge. Or Gradon if he gets sucker punched again. If someone is drunk and angry enough, they'd make him a woman :3

Hehe, now I'm having flashbacks to the Borgia's TV series where Cesare was captured and taken over a dinner table. Good series...

[Skepic]

@KoL
Gotcha! Will post soon!

"I mean, what do skulls make you think of? Death... cannibals... beheading... pirates..."

"Pirates are fun!"

"I didn't say we weren't fun, but fun or not pirates are still the baddies."

[DracoLunaris]

on this day I received a grim reminder

because I honestly forgot it was an empire

[KoL]

By the way, since I have yet to update NPC CSs and the lore post, here's a complete look at the Princess' appearance:

[TheWendil]

@KoL

Boo.

[TheFake]

Hi, This interests me. Thought I'd let you know before I just drop a CS in.

[DracoLunaris]

@KoL

I take part of my initial comment back as the frilly dress, love hearts, huge bow and oboe themed weapon make her look way less intimidating.
I still like her, she is just less dread empress now.
Its kind of neat how the to aesthetics are neatly separated at the waist. up is evil overlord, down is pretty princess.

@DracoLunaris

KoL not being an Edgelord? Those words are blasphemy.

[Crimmy]

Damn, Tzi does need to put his shirt on for this one.

[Leotamer]

Natus goes off and actually does some research, and then the princess arrives right afterwards. Also, a lot of our characters are nobility, so wouldn't some of our characters have been in social events with the king and queen?

[Bushman501]

Alright, here it is. Let me know if I need to change some things/more clarification etc.

Regina Cormier

Regina Cormier

Name: Lady Regina Cormier
Age: 16
Appearance: Regina stands at about 5'4. Aside from her military uniform, she often wears a set of high quality clothes.
Bio/Summary: Regina is the daughter of Lord Peter Cormier, a famous commoner-turned-noble who has saved the life of an important person in the Empire. Having been granted a title of nobility, all that Peter has wanted to do was retire and set his kids up. However, political pressure from those who held disdain toward the former commoner forced him to show he was not part of the riff-raff anymore. Thus, both a militia under Lord Cormier and sending his daughter to Cadenza Military Academy were necessary, much to his annoyance.

Despite her father's attitude, Regina liked the idea of going somewhere new. A new opportunity to see the world was all it took to strike her fancy instead of staying back home with Lord Cormier. However, when she arrived at the academy her father's influence on her was apparent. She spoke differently than most of the nobles despite her mother, Selena Cormier, being one and teaching Regina the finer touches of nobility. This ultimately causes her to stand out to both commoners and nobles, as her mannerisms and style of dress stem from both influences, though her father's is more apparent. Even so Regina is usually nice to everyone but does not overdo it.
Vessel: Irregular's Life-While the vessel is in a dormant state, the vessel is a bracelet. When activated, the vessel turns into the form of a large sniper rifle, capable of firing at long distances with a total of 3 shots consecutively before needing a recharge, which requires at least one and a half minutes if not more of time. While not suitable for close quarters or short range by any means, it is effective at a distance.
Abilities:
Irregular Ambush-If an enemy does not know that Regina is there until the shot is fired, an explosion occurs upon impact of the bullet as well as increased penetrative power and stopping power.
Mark-Allows Regina to mark a target, tracking them with her own eyes even if they are hidden from view,
knowing exactly where they are until they are either out of the area, not a threat, Regina chooses another target, or Regina's vessel returns to a dormant state.
Equipment: Short-sword, Lord Cormier's survival hatchet, book, entrenching tool (when out in the field)
Trivia/Other: Regina is fairly rich, but does not like to show as such. Regina is also extremely knowledgeable about traps and laying them thanks to Lord Cormier's insistence. She has a soft spot for nature and furry animals.

@Leotamer

And for the peasantfolk fishermen like Tzi, is he actually allowed to be near royalty at all?

[KoL]

@KoL

Boo.

@DracoLunaris

Don't encourage @TheWindel...

@TheWindel

Do you see why? This is the reason why we can't have nice things.

Damn, Tzi does need to put his shirt on for this one.

@Crimmy

Fortune favors the bold. The question is: Is he feeling today?

Natus goes off and actually does some research, and then the princess arrives right afterwards. Also, a lot of our characters are nobility, so wouldn't some of our characters have been in social events with the king and queen?

@Leotamer

By the way, I'll say what he could find on my next post. This previous one was too packed already to drop even more stuff there. Also, as my post states, the Princess was trained by the Captain as well, which implies that she (obviously) is/used t be a cadet at Cadenza until at least very recently (she's about the same age as all the other PCs as her looks indicate).

Your characters should have at least seen her during the daily life/other events at the Academy and out of it. Also, it's the Emperor, not King.

I'll give a better rundown of the Empire's hierarchy later, when I update the Lore post. Just know in advance that the Empress has passed away some years ago and the bulk of the politics is actually run by the Prime Minister.

<Snipped quote by Leotamer>

@Crimmy

Cadets at Cadenza are either nobility or nobles to be (by the virtue of being trained for positions of command at the Imperial army). Knighthood is an easy entry into nobility for anyone who shows the aptitude to be a Vessel Bearer. Obviously, someone not of blue blood will have hardships on their way up the social ladder. At the very least, as far as Cadets go, everyone is considered an equal (in theory, at least).
