[OOC] The True Self - Persona

[SwordfishKnight]

I managed to lift one off of my friend. It's an amazing game.

[Pudding]

I can reply, right?
Like there isn't a strange rule im unaware of or something, is there?

Edit: Its just cuz some people conplain when people post too much.
And the characters are kinda just talking, so I'm unsure.

[Zane620]

I personally wouldn't complain.

[Sen]

We're basically waiting for plot to happen, so there's literally no reason to wait for anyone else besides those who you're interacting with. 4/5 plot characters are totally unable to do anything, Sho just needs to post, Zane and I are just doing our things, and I have no idea about anyone else. If anything, I'm glad to have people post a lot.

EDIT: What you and Sword are doing right now is actually kinda important. Both characters are social linking meeting for the first time, and what's going on is pretty entertaining to read. Although Noboru's totally fanservicing it up in here.

[Pudding]

Should we reference it... If we do... How?
Edit: I figured Rui was the only one able to do actual social linking, considering he's the fool.

[Sen]

Having the character with the Fool arcana be the only one to do stuff like that would kinda ruin this a bit, since he's not the wild card and the RP shouldn't favor one over the other based on something like that. If social linking IS a thing, then I think that we should only be able to do it once we get a Persona, since that's when you begin to be able to do the social link with others in P3/4. That's just my opinion, though.

[Cuco]

Speed posting is only bad when it's likely to leave people behind and/or muck with people's sense of progression. Since you guys are posting in a pair far from anything else going on, I don;t see anything wrong with it.

And yes, let's avoid considering anyone as the main character here, even if they have the "main character" tarot.

[Pudding]

Okay, I'll be making a post. I think since nethier of us have awakened to our personas, later on, it'll be like.
"Social link social link social link! You already made progress with [insert arcana] social link social link!"

At Savo's permittance I'd like to put up my application for my Tower Arcana user

Jace Caedeus

Name: Jace Cadeus

Age: 17

Appearance:
http://www.zerochan.net/923683

Arcana:
The Tower

Personality:
Jace is a very calm and very down to earth person who is not prone to angry outbursts. However when pushed to his edge he can be extremely petty, and crude. His overly cautious nature leads him to not to take risks unless he has to. He has an air of authority around him made from his experiences and can when needed be somewhat persuasive and if needed he can hold a certain swagger to him even if it is normally superficial. He is very single minded and is very hard to push from his stance on things making him a very tough enemy in many situations but limits his ability to inspire loyalty from anyone. He is not afraid to boast, at least when it is brought up, about his impressive skill set which he is proud of. He can fight with his bare hands, and he was trained to fight with small swords by his father who's hobby was to fight in Renaissance fairs. He can be downright blood chilling when he is pissed off and some kids from back in his old school even complain about him giving them nightmares after particularly bad face offs. He is not fond of cursing but occasionally does it when something bad happens.

He is neither brave nor cowardly he is calm enough to pick and chose when he wants to fight. He hates people who don't keep their promises and normally finds ways to get even or close to it. He really has no interest in girlfriends finding girls today to be after his money or family connections. However he is no bi or homosexual he simply just distrusts the motives of the other sex. He can be bitter when double crossed and or lied to. He tends to keep his promises and hardly ever goes back on them his word is his code; he lives by it and he dies by it. He tends to chew people out if not in a deadpan sort of way when they do something stupid and tries not to make the same mistake when he gets into that situation. He is a caring to those who are actually close to him, and while not brutal man he is quick to be cold hearted and is quick to make up his mind about something.

With that being said he can be curious about certain things which can have both bad and good consequences however despite this when he feels he is in danger he tends to fall back into his cautious nature. He is also a rather big fan of dogs due to his father's time on the police force.

Equipment/Skills:
Ninjato Sword

Background:
Born in a small back town in the United States he was raised by his father, a police officer, and never knew his mother. He often spent time with his grand parents due to his father's job as a police officer. As a baby he was not one to cry often and was often read to by his father and grand mother as a child. As such he grew to love reading and it would spark his interests in other cultures around the world. As a child he often marveled at the accomplishments of the far east generals of the past such as Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Yukimura Sanada, Tadakatsu Honda as well as many others. However his favorite was definitely the Greek heroes of the past. He was often taken around the city by his grand father who ex posited tales of heroes to the boy filling his idea with idealism.

He grew to be friends with a young girl named Sam and a boy named Ken whom were both neighbors of his grand parents and both were around his age. They didn't have much of a chance to really grow up together however as soon Jace's dad ended up taking him to California after he was promoted. His heartfelt goodbye to his friends and his grand parents was short and left an impact on the boy which would come back to haunt him. The trip to California was long and boring for the young boy and he read up on the tales of various heroes throughout history through books his grand father had given him before he had left. When he finally got there he was often forced into going to work with his father and when he couldn't he would be left in after school programs before his dad came to pick him up. His relationship with his father was rocky at best as they didn't exactly get along well but they both tried. His father even brought him to obstacle courses and showed him how to fight in self defense as he grew older. In fact his father's personal interest of sword fighting eventually ended up with him going to fairs with him and watching his dad fence with other people leading up to him learning how to do it as well in his teen years.

However in school Jace was often picked to be the leader of the groups due in part to no one wanting to be leader which led to fights in his groups due to Jace's only fair ability to organize things unlike his father. He was often geared to be a B+ student and only studied when he had to. He didn't get in fights often and he didn't have many friends and was often found reading the library instead of doing sports however by his dad's own push he ended up as co-captain of his team' baseball club which he disliked heavily. He learned to speak Japanese after finding some old books on the subject and having his dad's half Japanese friend teach him how to do it formally. Life wasn't hard for the boy in fact Jace learned to like his life as painful as it was at times and how awkward he could be with some people but he always stuck to his own beliefs and people labeled him as reliable if somewhat stubborn and he grew to like that. Eventually he started to write letters back and forth to his friends back home and to his grand parents. One day his grand father had a heart attack and nearly died prompting the boy to stay out of school for almost a whole week much to his dad's anger. His life started to take a turn for the worse after that day as his grand parents were soon put in a nursing home prompting him to start worrying if they were getting to old as his dad's work days intensified he was left alone in the house more and more. He even started to work on his baseball team more and more prompting his team to start to call him a try hard.

However the day that forever changed his life was the day his old friends came to visit him. The day was fun and filled with excitement for one and all but the day ended in tragedy as the night ended with young Ken getting in a car accident and Sam suffering severe burns to her arm saving him from a burning truck. Sam got off without much of a hitch however Ken was put in a wheel chair for the rest of his life which prompted Jace to be more and more cautious as his life from then on would be dictated from that point forward to make sure he didn't repeat the mistakes of his friend Ken. Eventually however his dad was put on an investigation team all the way up in Oregon but Jace refused to go and instead his dad's friend Michaeal Azai, the man who taught him Japanese, told him that he would set him up with a school over in his home town in Warakuma which Jace accepted hesitantly. He has only recently just arrived there.

[Savo]

Not trying to be pushy, but I'm moving the plot forward tomorrow... I'm still keeping promises though.

So I hope that Rui heads into the mirror house soon.... Why am I not moving it forward now? Because I'm sleepy, and I need to recharge. I'm also going to edit one of my posts outlinging the three gms.

[Zane620]

You pm savo the mirror world app details man.

[Pudding]

Psst. Savo, ima PM you my Dungeon later! xoxo

[Sho Minazuki]

I'm in the mirror house.

Also yes while Fool, no Wild Card (yet, maybe. I could give up potential for Ultimate for more Personas, but I'm not sure how well that'll sit with everyone).

Everyone can Social Link though, is the plan. Not sure how we'll keep track of it, it can just be simplified with relationships. Like this person and that person are friends, then after some events relationship goes to either close friends or lovers, or even rivalry. But that's my idea.

[Savo]

Oh crap, uhm you wern't supposed to post the dungeon app with your app, just the character app! Also, you can pm me your character sheet, but it won't get added unless you post in ooc.

By the way, dungeon apps are seperate from character apps, your supposed to pm the dungeon app to me... So you might of just spoiled your dungeon and such.

Edit: Sho, you may be a gm, but let me say this -

No Wild Cards will be in the roleplay - period.

Also, I will get on the app tomorrow. Tired.

[vancexentan]

I apologize I'm used to just taking the CS copying it and then putting it on as it is. Not that I am particularly disappointed it was out there but I'll edit it out. I sent you the full CS anyways.

[Sen]

Excited to see what you're going to do with the Tower arcana, especially since I didn't read your app until after you edited out the mirror dungeon part.

God, I love the Tower arcana.

[vancexentan]

I tried to go with a character who idolized heroes but never really was one himself. In such a way he can draw from their experience will still being mentally screwed a little bit enough to make it into the Tower Arcana area. After all the Tower Arcana is the 'heroes who fell from grace' sort of deal and it's hard to make that sort of thing without making my guy overtly dark per say in my opinion.

[Sho Minazuki]

Gotcha.

Also I'm still wondering why no one's taken the chance to use Lu Bu if they're of the Tower Arcana.

[Crimmy]

One does not simply pursue Lu Bu.

[vancexentan]

Because Lu Bu wouldn't fit my guy personally. Lu Bu would belong to a much more angry person maybe a former gang leader of some sort.
