[OOC] Mirrored Fate

[Pyro V]

And done.

[Ampharos]

I really want Atalee to meet Jitters. I can only imagine how their conversation would go.

[Jerkchicken]

Cleaving vs Smiting?

[TaroAndSelia]

I can't even imagine. Let's hurry up and get there.

[Bubsy 2]

Hey Taro, you still want to have the Tyrell v. Leon fight we were planning in the old RP?

[Solita]

So uh... who else are we waiting for before we can move on past the initial round of posting? I know there still hasn't been a Jythrel post... or one for Zico, either. Or Sin, but he hasn't even said a peep in the OOC for almost two weeks or something.

[tatszico]

I'm currently working on my post. I have exams coming up, so I've been studying, along with packing everything in my room/house in order to move. My room's a mess right now lol. If you guys want, go ahead and continue with the advancement. My post with Zico is able to adapt to any situation that Mizuho wants to throw at him. I just need until tomorrow night, hopefully.

[Lilacs]

Okay, I'm going to give anyone who hasn't posted until Thursday, 2/4 7:30 AM, Central Time. Cuz I'm busy tomorrow with auditions and pep band, so I don't think I'll be able to start writing.

I'll start writing my next post on Thursday, during downtime at school.

If you don't post, you're kicked out of the RP I kid, of course >>

Without the Mystics it's missing that epic-ness.

[Jerkchicken]

Hey momotaros, tell me about the mystic artes and how they worked in version 1

Why do you care so much about mystic artes that may or may not be returning ._.

Jerkchicken said Hey momotaros, tell me about the mystic artes and how they worked in version 1

A Mystic Arte is unique to each character. We didn't actually get far enough to use them, but it's your one chance to overpower a skill. Uses are incredibly limited and your level restricts its power, but it was going to be a super-move to trump simple artes or survive a desperate situation.

Mizuho said Why do you care so much about mystic artes that may or may not be returning ._.

Because I'm already planning for a situation in which Tyrell uses "The Thief Lord" entirely on emotion. I want my chance to look cool, you know?

What is it a crime to be curious about how things worked in the first version of this game? Is it something I should be privy to?

Also what taro said, If there's something already in place to look cool I'm going to be interested

That's a good point. Maybe when/if they come back.

Lemme know if there's anything wrong



Name: Azelius Dural

Age: 20

Appearance: Long reddish brown hair, eyes of almost the same color, a lean muscular build, and above average height. He wears a simple gray tunic and light brown boots. Azelius is also always seen wearing his gauntlet on his left hand.

Style/Levels: Weaponry: Level 5 | Fisticuffs: Level 4 | Combat Magic: Level 3

Current Abilities: Weaponry Level 1 (Resonance Gauntlet)

Armor Breaker

Azelius simply touches someone with his gauntlet and as its name implies, breaks apart whatever armor the enemy has on. Exposed flesh will obviously fare no better. This works not by pure brute force, but by resonating with the material's inner structure, which results in its destruction. In a way, the material falls on its own "willingly" instead of being overcome by superior power. However, sufficiently durable materials can resist this process for a period of time, at least enough for a combat situation.

Resonance Blasts

Azelius fires bluish purple blasts of energy at his foes, which causes the same resonance effect described above. However, this is not as efficient as directly touching them.

Resonance Field

Azelius surrounds himself with a dome of the same energy he can fire. This forcefield is intended to break down any weapon that comes his way, but like with the Resonance Blasts, the process isn't as efficient as direct contact.

Weapons: His Resonance Gauntlet

Personality: Azelius is generally brash, blunt, and outspoken. He is confident in his abilities, perhaps overly so, which can be seen by others as arrogance. He's also not the type of person to work with others if he can help it and prefers to do things by himself without being bogged down (in his point of view) by other people. Azelius doesn't like to be associated with a pack of any kind. His most defining trait is his thrill-seeker attitude in regards to battle. Azelius refuses to wear any sort of protective gear and instead relies on his gauntlet and his quickness. In his mind, fights aren't exciting if the enemy can't end you in a single blow.

History: Born in a small village somewhere in Farecia, Azelius once dreamed of being a knight at the age of eight. He usually practiced with mock weapons his father, a renowned weaponsmith, made for him to foster his interest. Azelius also challenged other boys to fights constantly, and most of them couldn't even land a single hit on him. He eventually became known for his quick feet in the village and while his parents weren't quite fond of their son's habit of picking fights, they couldn't deny his talent.

When he came of age, Azelius signed up for the Farecian military. While his aptitude for pure combat is high, Azelius is unable to work with others and unwilling to follow orders. He eventually gets kicked out and returns to his village. Azelius tells his parents he couldn't quite make the cut. He was disappointed in himself, though his parents thought no less of him, despite the rejection.

Days later, news was heard of a group of monsters heading for the village. Farecian troops were going to be sent to deal with them, but they would be too late in their arrival. Azelius took matters into his own hands and darted towards his father's forge, taking his masterpiece, the Resonance Gauntlet. Everyone tried to stop him, but Azelius was far too determined to back down. He arrived at the outskirts of his village and fought the beasts. His formidable speed and agility ensured that not one of them touched him while he in turn destroyed them in a few blows, thanks to his gauntlet. It was there that Azelius realized the thrill that comes with putting himself in great danger and discovered the excitement of a battle where any hit can mean death. He never wanted to be a knight for the honor or prestige, no, he merely wanted the adrenaline rush from life or death situations. Azelius returned to his village as a hero and his father acknowledged him as the owner of the gauntlet. Two days later, he tells everyone he knows that he'd be leaving the village to fight more monsters, taking the gauntlet with him. His father offered to make some armor for him, but Azelius refused, saying he'll be fine as is.

From that point on, he journeyed throughout various parts of the kingdom and even outside it, taking various odd jobs, most of them related to extermination of monsters or killing off gangs of criminals. Azelius wandered from battlefield to battlefield, seeking thrill after thrill, and lived life as close to the edge as possible. He of course gained monetary compensation for his deeds, but those were merely means to keep himself in the game.

Why are you on this journey?

He's in it for the thrill he gets from fighting.

Miscellaneous: Azelius sometimes spits on the ground whenever he hears something he dislikes.
