Announcement made on Discord, also made here in case some of you are not active on Discord (for any reasons).

Time for UwU's and cute animals are over, because I'm also stepping in on the administrative side as well.

After some discussions with the GMs, the apparent lack of responses on individual pings, and the recent collabs slowing us down, I want to do a role call on who is still willing to continue. What you all need to do following this post shall be:

1) React to this post to indicate that you're still here.
2) Update us Innocence Lost GMs on either:
- what you are going to write next (at the very least for the next post), and when do you plan to do so
- if you have already posted, indicate that you're waiting on someone
- if you're stuck on ideas, then we can help
- if you're busy, so we can make arrangement
3) What's your update status on the character sheet with the new Character Trait rules implemented (if applicable)

Note that we will also reimplement weekly activity rules that require you to update us on your activity every 2 weeks or so, be it a post or a Discord/RPG post to indicate that you're there.

This will also be posted on the OOC for everyone to reply to in case they're not available on Discord (for whatever reasons). You only need to respond to one of them

You will have up until 10 PM PST, February 15, 2021 to respond to this announcement. If you fail to meet the deadline, you will be considered inactive/dropped and your character will be handled by the GMs instead.

P/S: I know some of you here have already replied to me earlier in the day, and I thank you for being responsive. But for our planning's sake, I hope you'll not mind the inconvenience of replying to this again.

[FalloutJack]

@Conscripts I did before and I'll so again. I can do a small post in reaction to things before the twins, or possibly a bigger one after their post. I also need to revamp my sheet, which will be Soon...

I edited Character Traits for Snow and Windsor!

Miron Zen

Name: Miron Zen

Age: 17



-------------------------

Important items: Tungsten Carbide Band given to him by his mother on his birthday

Weapons: 9mm Laser Pistol for defense if he ever actually needs it.

Spell List:

Axion Warp : Timespace

Using the primary function of timespace, Miron warps a short distance, within eyesight. Almost completely undetectable other than the slight gravitational wave distortions emitted during the process for a fraction of a second. Requires time to orient himself after warp, and other abilities or weapons cannot be active.

Axion Shot : World

Using ambient Exotic matter axions, Miron condenses a small but very dangerous beam. Because of its nature, it does not cauterize a wound like a laser would, but punches holes through people and objects just as effectively. Strong particle barriers prevent the shot, and close range firing of less than half a foot cannot occur without serious repercussions to both him and his target, including but not limited to spontaneous state change.

Axion Burst : World

Using ambient exotic matter axions, Miron chooses a point in space within a half kilometer range, condensing the axions into a radial burst. Not enough to damage ships or large war vehicles, but enough to knock over a person if they're on the edge of it, and knock someone out if they themselves are too close. The same effects can be transferred to him if he is not careful of where he decides to place the burst.

Minor Particle Analysis: World

All other particles that are free floating, IE flowing electrons, non-visible light, etc, are able to be discerned with some time, they cannot be controlled, however they can be tracked to a source.

Axion Blast : World

A short range repulsive blast that seems to be the most basic form of utilization for Miron. By generating an asymmetrical blob of axions, and then directionally releasing it, he creates a heavy blow back force, like being blown away by a hurricane. Usually accompanies him panicking because someone gets to close.

Gravity Barrier : World

By emitting a controlled field of Axions, Miron can stop small projectiles and rocket propelled grenades, causing them to freeze in place and fall to the ground. Ex1tremely taxing and he cannot move during use.

Character Traits: Magitech modification : Because his abilities were so unwieldy at times, he was introduced to primitive MagiTech, in an effort to create something that would assist his abilities. Miron has an accelerated knowledge of magictech workings, and can take little time to discern the function of an item. It works in tandem with particle analysis, to help him also create or disarm weapons and tools. He however cannot tell what materials it is made out of without more time. Therefor don't ask him what something is made of on the spot because he wont know.

-------------------------

Short Bio:

Children

Miron Zen was originally from a distant colony, one that was less developed than most, his mother worked in retail, and his father had died in a construction accident. It was tough for her, especially knowing that Miron was essentially on his own with some random stranger every day. But she continued to work, because she loved him, and that's what mothers do. The problem was her health was deteriorating quickly as well, from constant work and little sleep, it was hard for her to find time to take care of the child. Even over the years he learned very quickly how hard it was, and would jump at the opportunity to help his mother with home stuff. A perfect little family, of course he wasn't very proficient at manual work, but he excelled in intellectual stuff. Once his mothers health had deteriorated to the point where she finally admitted she needed care, insurance handled the rest. But that left him alone for the time being. At the age of six, he was taken, while his mother was receiving treatment for deteriorating health, he was seen as a perfect target, and abducted on the way home from the hospital.

Control

Constantly told he was doing this to help his mother, that they would provide the best treatment for her. And he believed it, or at least part of him did. He thought if he stayed here it wouldn't have to be a burden on her, and that she would live better, but he asked how she was doing, and every time he was given the same response, just phrased different, "She's responding well" or "Doing great!" The same responses over and over that after a year or two he considered it to be standard procedure, just like most things, having lost most of his will to fight back anyway after being told she was being treated. And that wasn't the end. The pain of loosing skin from a misfire, or the failure to produce a correct frequency was painful when learning his abilities. He hated it. He was too dumb to realize he was a weapon now, too childish to understand what was going wrong, but by sheer luck and perseverance he pulled through the basic understandings. It took years of breakdowns, refits, retries, remodulations, and many, MANY, tissue regenerations. Even for some of the adults watching a misfire of an axion beam, or warp, could be too much, yet after a while he shrugged it off, and regained a casual and childlike attitude, and as the accidents decreased with his ability, he seemed to understand his position a bit more.

Test

It had taken years to master, inside a ever changing white complex, that had taken most of his life away, but it was finally time for his real test, as a weapon to fight. Or, as the records show, play with enemy forces, his original job had been to wipe a task force off the map as quick as possible, and that did happen. He had been shown battlefields and been in virtual simulations of fighting, and it was still hard for him to grasp. But the only thing that kept him going was being told that it was protecting his mother, and everyone else he'd have ever met. It turned into a bloody mess, as both sides realized, his abilities didn't seal wounds and merely let them bleed. Aliens he didn't want to kill but had to. A monster using exotic matter and magic to kill was something even Miron realized. It shocked him more than it should have even with the sims and videos. and when his final mission Proxima came around it was his job to perform something in a minor sector, reducing power plants to dust, however he didn't want to kill and tried his best to keep everyone alive, after the first time, he aimed for non lethal spots, used every means at his disposal to knock aliens out instead of kill them, keep them alive. Because either way, if they won, or the aliens won, it would mean he had caused things worthy of his execution, or at least that was his logic. When the treaty rolled around and he was discarded, he made his way home, to find his mother had died some years before, having not been helped like he was told. He asked for days if there was any possibility she was alive and nothing. And with hatred he returned to space.

[Letter Bee]

@Thelxinoe, You can have two more spells, and add expand Magitech Modification to a fill paragraph.

[Thelxinoe]

@Letter Bee I made some additions

[Letter Bee]

@Thelxinoe, I read them, and I'll discuss things with my Co-GMs.

[Landaus Five-One]

I have finally finished the revamp to Conner & Narvia. No longer have any mention of skills, traits are the way of the future. :)

[Letter Bee]

@Thelxinoe, Approved.

[The Man Emperor]

Name: Klein Benedict Harris; The Angel of Death

Age: 19

Physical Description:


Klein is quite tall at 6'2". He has a lanky frame, fair skin, and brown eyes.
-------------------------

Important items:

Laminated picture of his late squad
Omni-Tool
Cane (pretends to have a bad leg)
Glasses (for simple aesthetic)
Light Body Armor
Diary
Necklace with a cross

Weapons:

Avtonat Kalashnikova 89 - A fully automatic assault rifle that fires bolts of plasma. It could be charged with any source of heat; as such, its battery could be replenished by something as simple as a bonfire.

Revolving Blade Swords: A pair of short chainswords with teeth augmented with extreme heat. Effective against armor.

Spell List:

Shadowspawn Conjuration (Underworld/Mind): Klein has the ability to summon up to six monstrous creatures out of the fears of non-magical folk within 20 meters. These can vary from simple feared animals such as spiders and dogs to seemingly incomprehensible monstrosities; whatever it is that these non-magic individuals see in their nightmares. They all seem to have little to no durability, as they are easy to dispatch with conventional weaponry; they are, however, quickly replaced if people stay within range. They never seem to get bigger than seven feet tall, and almost always try to assume a humanoid form.

Umbrakinesis (Underworld): Klein is able to gather shadows in order to darken out his surroundings in a radius of five meters, or create a blind spot around himself that absorbs all light. Non-magical light sources are unable to penetrate darkness created by his umbrakinesis.

Necro-Memorial (Underworld/Mind): Klein is capable of drawing out the memories of a corpse, as long as it has sufficient brain matter left.

Shadowform (Underworld/Change): Klein is able to transform into a living shadow, allowing him to meld into the shadows, be immune against non-magical weaponry, and fly at a speed of 40 km/h. This state lasts for up to 5 seconds at a time.

Memory Manipulation (Mind): Klein is able to manipulate the memory of someone he is in physical contact with, most usually by putting his hand on their forehead for at least six seconds.

Mirage (Mind): A favoured tactic, Klein has the ability to create illusions in a radius of ten feet around himself. He could disguise himself as a tree, or hide other people around him. Mirage can still be countered by thermal vision and High magic sense.

Character Traits:

Telepathic Immunity: Being highly proficient in Mind Magic, Klein's mind is like a fortress. It is extremely difficult for telepaths to read his mind; as such, his secrets are safe. Having spent much of his training being assailed by Mind Magic has very much strengthened the mental barriers he has to the point that attempting to read his mind could cause pain if the telepath insists on breaking in.

-------------------------

Short Bio: Klein Harris comes from a colony etched into the innards of Ceres, one of the largest asteroids in the asteroid belt of the Solar System. He was born into a rather poor mining family in the asteroid colony, the youngest of five children. They lived in the deepest parts of the massive rock that they were born in, and toiled day and night in the mining operations all over the asteroid belt as crewmen or pilots of the mining ships that sailed amongst the sea of rocks, extracting precious metals that only made the Ascendancy rich while they, the poor masses, remained small and weak. They have a terrible existence right unto this day.

Klein, however, was not destined to live in such terrible conditions; at the very least, he wasn't supposed to. He was quite intelligent academically, and when one of the more well off friends of his mother came in for a little visit all the way from Mars, she looked upon how the youngest child of these desperate asteroid miners got the highest grades in his class. At age 15, Klein was slated to be sent to Mars to attend a private school… and hopefully help get his family out of their terrible existence and end the undying cycle of poverty.

These dreams, however, would be shattered when men in masks and black grabbed him off the streets of Cerespont. He awoke strapped to a table, alien dust and other impossible substances being pumped into his body along with hundreds of other kids.

He was now a Star Marine, gifted with terrible powers of darkness and death. The Ascendancy then shoved him and his fellow young warriors into the fray of war against the alien coalition, breaking them for all time. Klein and his newfound allies would commit terrible atrocities and crimes of war; all under the orders of the institution that had no care for their welfare. They were just tools; tools to be used and discarded once they had no more worth.

The throes of battle would continue until the final confrontation in Proxima, where most of the Star Marines were captured. In the hour right before the battle, Klein fled, deserting the army in a desperate and foolhardy attempt to find his way back home.

Instead, what he would find was Crowley, and the vicious Squad 0. Some of them wished to kill him then and there, but Crowley overruled them, stating that his set of magic and skills would be very useful in being a mole. Under the threat of death, Klein Harris would be an unwitting pawn of Crowley, forced to do whatever the sadistic boy wishes in exchange for a safe passage back to the Asteroid Belt…

@The Man Emperor, Accepted, but Jest and Conscripts can override, not that it is likely as your sheet is good...

[Letter Bee]

Glad to see this has lasted for 5 - 6 months, btw!
