[OOC] Overlord - Mors Inimicos Nostros

[Marquise]

Likewise done, @vancexentan . Obviously happy to change things if you have concerns :) .

[vancexentan]

@Marquise I see nothing wrong I'll accept the character.

@Kazemitsu Ring of Freedom seems too low level for what it does, and besides that it seems way to effective. It general turns one of his downsides, berserkers in games tend to be pure damage, in that he is effected by status debuffs.

His history could be buffed up more. There's not much on the character itself just a very brief description of what he's done.

[Kazemitsu]

Yeah I didn't really know what to put the ring as since it's classed as unknown on the overlord wiki. It's only been used once in...the novel or manga by Nabe. I'll see what I can do about the character bio but he's an average player. Not a top one like /touch Me or Momonga :p

[vancexentan]

Momonga's build is actually only top average build. He's just really smart, and a P2W player. According to the wiki Momonga got rekt by min-max players.

[Kazemitsu]

Ah, a cash shop junkie. Well...hopefully character is done now, modified him. I honestly don't really know what else to put in the backstory x.x that's always my hardest part...

[vancexentan]

As I said remove ring of binding, and I'll allow it. Negating all paralyzing, and stun attacks is a bit much especially on a pure damage build. @Kazemitsu

[Kazemitsu]

It only removes snares, paralyzing, and movement impairing effects but alrighty.

[vancexentan]

paralyzing is a general effect. If a striker hitting a pressure point is considered paralysis in the same way a mage casting 'stun enemy' is paralysis. The difference is the striker/monk is using a physical part of the body to do so, and the caster is using magic. Snares, and traps are a generalist rogue thing. And Movement Impairment is general. A person casting a freeze spell on your leg is movement impairment in the same way getting poisoned and being sluggish afterward is.

[Kazemitsu]

But stuns are in fact different from paralyzing effects. Paralyze is your body can't move whereas a stun is...your brain just got jumbled and you're trying to collect yourself. Don't wanna argue about it though, I fixed what ya wanted.

[vancexentan]

Alright then I don't see anything wrong further with the character so I'll accept it.

[vancexentan]

While we're waiting on reflection to finish I've made the first IC post

Astrid - The Witchblade

Yggdrasil Username: xXKillerXxXQueenXx
Name: Astrid Andal
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Character Level: 90
Alignment: True Neutral
Guild/Party Affiliation: Ex-Empire of Order Now operates solo.
Appearance:

Appearance

_____________________________________________________________________***_______________
Job Classes:
- Warrior [15/15]
- WitchBlade [10/10]: A special class that can only be accessed when the player manages to get their hands on a Witchblade. Witchblade job classing is seen as an advanced form of both the Cursed Knight and the Forbidden Arts User. As a result, Witchblading is a rare job class with only about a hundred players to ever achieve the class. Witchblade, like World Champion, is a special class and thus rare for others to achieve.
- Forbidden Arts User [10/10]
- Cursed Knight [9/10]
- Duelist [9/10]
- Barkeep [5/15]
- Cook [6/15]

Fighting Style: The Witchblade class is known for one particular trait. The longer the fight, the harder it becomes to win. Astrid's primary talent is curses, debuffs, and energy sapping. The longer a battle lasts, the more times her blade clashes with the enemy, the more powerful she becomes. This power is of such a degree that she can solo a raid boss, uses life stealing and other such talents to drag her enemy down. Her main focus is thus on offensive, as the more she fights, the easier it becomes to apply her curses and debuffs to the enemy.
Strengths: Incredible Sustain and the ability to weaken ones enemies are trademarks of the Witchblade class. As a result, this covers the often squishy nature of mages, while allowing more combat versatility than traditional melee classes. She is best against fighters who rely on their physical strength, as she saps it till nothing is left.
Weaknesses: Witchblade skills require a great deal of mana. Without enemies to drain mana or constant combat, her skills can be very draining. Long range often works against her, as mid-close range are her preferred ranges.

Items:

Items of use

Health Potion (Lesser/Greater) / Mana Potion (Greater/Lesser) / Boots of Speed

Name of Item: Witchblade
Rank of Item: Divine Class
Appearance: [See Appearance]
Description of Item: The Witchblade is a special weapon. A very rare weapon that was gifted to only 100 players in the entire play of YGGDRASIL. The only way to achieve a Witchblade was to solo the world boss Witch King Ezekiel and be one of the first one hundred to do so. Then they were given the crafting tools needed to make it.
A Witchblade is a cursed blade that steals the life from others. It boosts the stats of the user by 1 for every player/enemy within 55 units. If stats are boosted by 10+ the bonus rises to +5 for every additional NPC or user after that. The blade gets additional damage against any Chaotic Evil or Lawful Good players. As the blade abhors extremes.
Class/Racial Restrictions: The blade can only be wielded by humans.
Downsides of Item: Once equipped, it forces the user to respec as a Witchblade, making using it detrimental to those who do not plan for it in the long run. If the user goes a day without making a kill, the blade decreases the user's stats by -5 for each day they do not kill. Once they make a kill, the blade is satisfied and all stats are returned to normal.

Name of Item: Demon Arm
Rank of Item: Top Class
Appearance: [See Appearance]
Description of Item: Armor made from the body of a demon. Allows any weapon equipped to the arm that it covers to deal extra curse damage. Which applies a debuff that lowers the defense of others. This debuff stacks.

_____________________________________________________________________***_______________
How a normal human would view me: Astrid is often viewed by others as an unearthly beauty. But, there is something very odd about her. Or to be exact, the aura she emits. Particularly perceptive people may notice the aura of the witch, but others... Nothing. Instead, they will be victims to her charm.

Personality: Astrid isn't popular. Because first of all she loves a challenge. More than that she loves being better than other people, in stark contrast to her twin brother. Astrid isn't exactly hedonistic, or mean, or even all that greedy. She just loves competition. Challenges excite her, and new ways to be better than people are almost always going to draw her attention.
She's polite, so that helps. She honestly doesn't care about people, unless they're willing to compete with here. Or they somehow manage to match her. Power is what attracts Astrid, and not some silly thing like physical looks. Though that does help.

Bio/Lore: In real life, Astrid's player is known as Kate. Twin sister to the real life owner of Grey Andal. In truth, she was always the more successful of the two. More motivated, but too competitive for her own good. While she never really got into MMOs, she was very into competitive gaming. After all, the concept alone of being able to prove oneself better? That was a rush. Between her and her brother it was clear why he became lazy. Because he just couldn't compete with Astrid. Better socially, better in sports, and just... Better. The problem? That competitive streak meant she went through friends fast. As a result, she was considered unloyal.

It was only by Ivan's insisting that she joined YGGDRASIL. She loved it. The tactics. The plotting. The fighting and competing. She was involved in the game for quite a while, taking the occasional break to focus on something else. Like college, and sport games. Because she wanted to be better than Grey, she too became a Paladin class, at first. And joined his guild, where despite being better, she was noticeably less popular than her twin. Not that she cared. She learned pretty quickly how to do raids solo.

It was when a new class was announced, that she knew she had to have it. The Witchblade. A brand new class for only the first 100 to solo the newest raid boss. Plotting, planning, and practice led Astrid to power grind to the top, and she was #43 when it came to beating the boss solo. Thus, she became a Witchblade. A class change that wasn't... Popular. Members of the guild believed that by taking on this class she was breaking the tenants of the guild, and thus shouldn't be a member. Astrid agreed whole heartedly, and left with only a winky face emoji.

She spent a lot of time doing other stuff. But yet she always managed to find time to go online and feed her Witchblade. She came online just the one last time to challenge Grey to a duel. To prove her character and stats were better, one last time.

I would say that it would be better off if Ivan, the guy who got Grey into it, got her into the game by insistence. I don't think real life Grey would had the motivation to bug her until she played.

Silence should be a single targeter not an AOE i think.

I'm not sure if the titular witch blade is worthy of being denoted as a divine status weapon but I'll let it pass.

@vancexentan

I gave it a bunch of powers at the start, but I cut them down a bit, since I felt giving it too many powers would be unreasonable. So I might drop it down a rank.

[Lucius Cypher]

My app may take a few days longer due to moving. Mostly on mobile right now.

[vancexentan]

@Lucius Cypher I've been considering closing down applications (at least for the moment) just to let you know Mister Cypher I apologize to say so but I'm going to give it a day, or two before deciding. I think the group is solid as it is but I am also willing to consider my options on the matter.

[Reflection]

@vancexentan I made Silence into a single target spell, but decreased the cooldown just a tad. Since 30 minutes was probably too heavy for a single target spell.

[vancexentan]

Alright that's fair enough unless anyone objects to it I'll accept the character. @Reflection

[Lucius Cypher]

@vancexentan

Understandable, I do have a considerable amount of the CS finished, I’m mostly just ironing out the class and skills due to being a high level character, also due to some complexity to the character itself. I hope I can make the cut.

[vancexentan]

Just to remind everyone NPC's can't talk in Ygdrasil Ainz/Momonga is surprised to see Albedo talking to him initially. It'd just be an npc using a speech bubble, or maybe just a notice on a message board.
