@Lugubrious I'm assuming Papyrus decided to stay in Snowdin yes? Been on my mind lately.

@Dark Cloud

Yes.

[Majoraa]

You kinda went awol with him at a moment where both him AND Frisk would've been freed, so he had to stay behind to keep an eye on Snowdin.

[Dark Cloud]

@Majoras End assumed as much, good to know. And apologies for that. If anything I'd be far more comfortable playing another skeleton, tibia honest :P

[Archmage MC]

Still a wip, but best to save it here.

Roland

Name: Roland "The Black Silence"
Game Origin: Library of Ruina
Appearance:

Picture

Personality: Roland is overall a good natured man. He as a casual and relaxed denouement which is shown in his attempt to make friends with those who he has to work with and make connections with them, although this can lead to conflict as well. It can be very difficult to tell if this is genuine or not however, as he tends to mislead or obfuscate what he actually knows or what his goals are if they aren't surface level. Even so, he will at least say half truths and wont lie outright. He hates those that gain enjoyment in making others lives miserable, but unless brought into conflict with those people he will work with them willingly as a professional as its "just the way of the city."; this also includes potentially harming those he once called friend if his employer brings the two into conflict and he has enough incentive to do so. Roland is dismissive of bad or good things happening to him or done by him, using the phrase "That's that and this is this.", tending to stay in the moment.
Background: Roland was once a high grade fixer of The City, hired police from a continent sized city. Those that lived in the city were forced into a cycle of pain and suffering to benefit their cruel overlords, and Roland was no exception. One day he would find himself inside what could only be described as a magical library and forced to work there to gather books for the library. This often involved fighting those who entered the library seeking knowledge turning them into books. Eventually after these adventures, he would find this library to be his home and enjoyed the company of those who resided in it. At least until a bright flash, similar the light of the library itself, whisked him away to the World of Light.

Specialty: Color Fixer (Stealthy Weapons brawler)
Level: 1
Experience: 0/10
Powers:

• Gloves of the Black Silence: Roland's gloves are special and unique making anything he does in combat be completely silent, with only weapon attacks that connect leaving a distorted 'underwater' sound effect for everyone but the person being hit, who will hear it as normal. These gloves act like a pocket space, allowing Roland to store and withdraw items at will including weapons. Weapons drawn in this method are fully loaded and prepared to use if they would have any kind of arming or reload needed as long as he possesses the ammunition needed for them.

Strengths:

• Emotion Level: Roland starts a fight at 0 emotion level, going up to 5. Roland gains emotion level as he fights based on the emotions he feels during the fight. Weaker emotions will suffice at early levels, but will become far less effective as his emotion level raises, requiring stronger and stronger emotions to reach his next level. Each time his emotion level goes up, Roland gets 10% stronger, faster and more powerful. Other abilities are tied to this directly. Roland's emotion level resets to 0 if there is a small rest period between battles.
• Distortion Mask: The mask Roland wears in combat distorts the perception of foes. This makes it more difficult for enemies to notice him and easier for them to forget he is even involved in the battle. Enemies he fights will not remember he was fighting them after a fight.
• Weapon Master: Roland is incredibly proficient with all types of weapons both melee and ranged and can learn how to use new weapons almost instinctively. Roland can deflect small ranged attacks if his currently drawn melee weapon attack is stronger than them.

Weaknesses:
Mental Weakness: Roland is weak to psionic attacks or attacks of the mind, especially ones that stir up negative emotions in him thanks to the conditions of the city where he's from.
Stagger: As Roland takes damage, he loses mental fortitude. When it bottoms out, he is stunned for a moment and takes double damage from all attacks while in this state. When he recovers, his mental fortitude is fully restored. Roland can regain some of this mental fortitude by evading enemy attacks.
Careless: After a traumatic experience in his past, Roland went on a careless rampage, crushing lives and causing problems that made him many enemies while he wasn't wearing his distortion mask. This mental breakdown, when resolved, left Roland fairly careless about the things he says. He will say whats on his mind, often in a sarcastic tone. He will also preform actions he thinks are right for the moment, unless they would be outright foolish or dangerous to himself.
Spirits:

Guest List: Phantom Thief Retort - Medabots
Shadow Queen - Paper Mario TTYD
Wasp King - Bug Fables
Inventory: Durendel (named longsword), Guns, Clubs, Cleavers, Knives.

I'm trying out something new for the Binding of Isaac floors. Everyone in that group can take turns claiming a couple of the rooms on the current floor and take care of them in their own posts in the order they come, referring to the wiki page for details on the enemies. You can handle the rooms yourself, collab with another player in the group, or collab with me if you want. At the start things are definitely on the easier side, but the deeper we go the harder it'll get, and the more non-Isaac enemies we'll run into. Once you make your claims, I can send you info on anything special in those rooms as well as item rewards, as well as the reward in the item room for whoever finds a key. When we reach the miniboss we should definitely work together on that post, though it probably won't be that much longer than a normal room encounter.

My plan is to spend a week on each floor, and at the end of the month we'll fight the boss together. This format is supported by the fact that room doors close just a moment after anyone steps inside until the encounter is cleared, giving only one or two characters a chance to get inside before they do. Sound good?

[Lugubrious]

As additional notes about the Binding of Isaac floors: the rooms represent the enemies found in each room and their approximate amounts in relation to one another, but not their exact amount. So it isn't a single Mulligan in the room to the left; it's a group of Mulligans. Also, we're treating the enemies as scaled to an Isaac that's three feet tall. So Fatties are five feet tall, spiders and flies are as big as birds, and so on.

[Dark Cloud]

I'll have a post up tonight. Ngl the mercenary group idea has it's merits. Benedict might weigh in, anyhow gtg. Cya in 6 to 7 hrs.

[Dark Cloud]

I'll work on something in the morning. Was just a hectic start to this week.

[Dark Cloud]

And there ya are. All done.

[Bugman]

Would Teemo from League of Legends be fine in this? Albeit I'll only really be able to join after the new year

@Bugman

Yeah, that'd totally be doable. I'll hope to see you around here in the future!

[Scarifar]

Oh no, not Teemo!

[Dark Cloud]

I'm miserable from sitting in the cold for 2hrs. Everything hurts, I'll try to get a post out tomorrow night.

I hope you feel better!

[Dark Cloud]

Will post soon, just working on a sheet for later. Benedict is my serious character, I like to balance it with a bit of comic relief.

The Swift Scout

Name: Teemo
Game Origin: League of Legends
Appearance:

Personality:

Teemo rides a thin line between chipper compatriot and unrepentant killer

~ Tristana

There are two sides to Teemo. Outside of missions he is a kind, friendly yordle, his tiny stature hiding the size of his heart. Yet in a mission, he does whatever needs to be done not limiting himself to brutality if the demand for such is there. Outside of war, he always makes sure to give people his best. Calm, curious, and friendly, he has all the traits typical to a yordle. He helps those in need, loves making friends, an almost childish attitude to justice than can be summarized as a love of "fairness", and most peculiarly has a certain naivete that seems almost paradoxical when superimposed on his ruthlessness in battle. He has an appreciation for music, playing his flute whenever the opportunity arises.

Teemo has an aversion to fighting as part of a group however. Speculation on why this is has lead to many theories. Some say that he is afraid (perhaps due to experiencing such) of losing those with him. At others its because he - somewhat arrogantly - believes that the would slow him down, showcasing a more negative part of his personality. Others who know him better suggest that he doesn't want others to see him be the cold killer he becomes in times of violence. The truth is, all of these suggestions have some merit. He would prefer to have all his cherished friends not perish in the dangerous scraps he gets himself into and he would prefer they keep seeing him as the cute furry creature that they see in peacetime.

Time to put on my killing hat.

~ Teemo

Background: A native of Bandle City, Teemo defends the Yordlish homeland at all costs. Swiftly rising to the rank of Captain in the military, he does not use or carry the rank by virtue of command. It is largely simply an acknowledgement of his skill as a soldier. Though undeniably cute, many a would-be aggressor against Bandle City would find themselves victims of his guerilla warfare. Now a Scout of the Mothership, he was on yet another mission to mercilessly slaughter would-be transgressors when he found himself in a new world entirely.

Specialty: Teemo is an expert of guerilla warfare. Hit-and-run tactics, ambushes, traps, you name it, he will use unconventional means to get an upper hand on enemies that are otherwise superior in numbers, strength, or other means.
Level: 1
Experience: 0/10 (The amount of EXP required to level up will increase by 10 each level, but rewards get bigger, too)
Powers:

• GUERRILLA WARFARE - If Teemo stands still and takes no actions for a short duration, he becomes invisible. If he's in bush (or similar concealment), Teemo can enter and maintain his Invisibility while moving. After leaving invisibility, Teemo gains the element of surprise, increasing the speed of his attacks for a brief period.

Strengths: (Things your character's always good at, or always can do; essentially, passive abilities or bonuses. You start with three, but you can add more in place of powers when you level up)

• Stealth - a combination of his size, his training, experience, and yordlish magic has him very hard to spot even when he isn't outright invisible.
• Swiftness - His legs might be small, but Teemo's feet let him easily scurry away at a speed most would find unachievable.
• Manual of Arms - he is an expert with many traditional weapons, but in particular he excels at weaponizing his blowpipe (which double as a flute, whistle, and staff), and the great reserve of mushrooms he carries.

Weaknesses:

• TINY - Teemo's size ensures that he is nowhere near as strong nor as durable as an adult human being.

Spirits:

Guest List: (Put up to three characters you like or want to see, and you'll run into them sooner or later in the RP. There's no restriction on what characters you put in, other than the same ones that apply to PCs)
Inventory:
Blowpipe - this is a weapon, but also an instrument if needed!
Telescope - Finest Yordle craftsmanship!
Helmet - rather thin and worn, it won't protect from much but is also rather light and protects Teemo with its size almost like an umbrella. Also has protective goggles.
Darts - shot from the blowpipe, can be thrown in a pinch.
Backpack - for carrying things.

Hello again! The sheet's not bad at all, but I do have a couple small notes.

The personality section is a very high-level overview. Is there enough to go on there where other people could approximate how he'd act in certain situations? It's not critical to have a huge personality section, but the more you could say about how he behaves, the better. Characters with more/stronger personalities are easier and more compelling to play as, after all.

Since he has an infinite amount of poison darts and blinding darts regulated by mana and cooldown, those should definitely be individual powers, and mushrooms especially since they're pretty much pure magic. I would also recommend fleshing out the Weaknesses section. You say he's tiny, but spend more time in the weakness describing how capable he is than how his size hinders him. I assume Teemo's weaknesses might also include that he's physically weak (in that he doesn't possess much physical strength, instead relying on his kit of tricks) and doesn't have much defense or health.
