[OOC] RWBY: Deep Blue

[harinezumikouken]

Made minor changes adding a few more details to Kuhaku's CS, the most major change being balancing of his Semblance ability. Changes are emboldened for easier reading.

- Reduced the number of total glyphs from 10 down to 5
- Reduced the effective range of the glyphs from Kuhaku's position from 300 meters down to 100 meters
- Added a required 'manual' activation of the glyphs, instead of an automatic self-activation

Now, I wait for approval.

[Pyromania99]

I'm just going to post again.

[Scarifar]

It's been 3 days since we started this, I think it's high time the ship lands and we go explore Beacon.

[AliceZaru]

[Pyromania99]

Too cute.

I planned on having Francesca evolve through the story. She doesn't like being a lone wolf. It just happens. :(

This, this exactly. These characters may start as rather antisocial, but that would gradually change as they open up more to their teammates.

Edited again.

Let me know when you're ready again with the final changes as suggested by Kiddo

Harine, totally accepted. Love the semblance

Zombehs, its really nice, I like the weapon the best, the semblance is used to confine these two? Wouldn't it be easier if it was a visible/spectral chain that only the users could touch? This would allow for better utilization and planning in combat for both players.

Everyone who has had their character sheets accepted, please post said character sheets here

thats true, I'll have the ship land in a bit then.

[Saltwater Thief]

Sorry about the delay, work's been a bear. I'll have that CS submitted as soon as I can.

[MonkeyBusiness]

Am I to late to join?

[Henzukaya]

We have a waiting list now, but yeah still open-ish

[MonkeyBusiness]

So kind of like.... Post a character and wait for an opening.

[harinezumikouken]

I'll post my intro once I'm back home and off my phone.

That was the original purpose. Now it's more of meant to disorient and confuse the opponent. You can probably imagine how suddenly losing the ability to move away from an opponent only to gain it back a few seconds later would confuse someone.

I think that the previous use was better, but I still contend that 5 minutes is way too long for it to last. It could have some devastating results if it last 10-60 seconds.

Name: Hiro Fergourn
Age: 16
Gender: M
Race: Faunus (monkey)
Appearance: His hair is completely white (naturally)  and he has it done into a Mohawk of three rows of spikes that are about three inches tall and half an inch in diamiter at the base. His eyes are interestingly a very dark purple-blue-black color, and his skin is a nearly albino white color. On his face he has a sideburns scything down each side, and a goatee which is actually two with a stripe running down the center between the two. He has two piercings on his nose, one on the cartlage in the center and another on the right, each ear has one in the lobe and the right one has one about two thirds of the way up and his left eyebrow has two close to each other on the far left. He has a tattoo of an open wound his left arm just below the shoulder, right below his shoulder blade is a silhouette of two monkey Faunas standing back to back in combat stance, the male has a staff while the female has two Sai, the male's eye is like you would imagine an eye with a sharp slant giving a aggressive appearance, while the female's is four pointed wave like throwing star with a black hole in the center.
Personality: He's pretty dark and moody and has a nasty temper as well as being bipolar. His attitude is from after his sister's death, and finally he's somewhat suicidal in a sense that he'll fight against impossible odds without caring whether he lives or not.
Weapons: named Itami, it's a staff, tonfas, and dual semi auto long barreled pistols. He carries them as tonfas but genuinely fights with it as a staff and converts it to tonfas when he doesn't have space, and he bearly uses them as pistols.
Semblance: Kinetic shockwave, basically if he were to punch something or whack somthing with something still in contact with him he could send a shockwave of pure kinetic energy through andsend the object flying away from him (this can be also done in reverse as a launch device). For his semblance to work he must provide an initiating force which is than magnified by his ability so the more force the bigger the affect.
Strengths: He's streetwise and very good at one on one dueling.
Weaknesses: He's easily angered by topics sensitive to him, he also will intentionally force people away from him in the non physical sense.

[Forsythe]

I can't say I am a fan of breaking newton's 3rd law (That's how i understand " the counter force is also flipped around so it's with his force as opposed to countering it"), even though it's a universe that could maybe get away with it. I mean this is the whole fan and a sail on a single boat thing all over again, and yeah i know it sorta works and mythbusters and blah blah, you know what I mean :P

Bios are supposed NOT to be shown in this particular RP.

[Kiddo]

Okay, new rule: everyone who has "doesn't do teamwork" or some sort of rewording of that, take it out of the weakness section and put it in the personality section. I'm tired of seeing it used as a weakness just because people are too lazy to think up something real. The weakness section is for things that your enemies can use against you to create interesting counterplay, and "doesn't do teamwork" doesn't fit there at all.

[pyre101]

I just said my guy is socially inept. Over time, as he develops as a character, he will learn how to work together. He can try to work together though from the initial start.

Eh, changed it back to this then. Added another weakness.

[pyrak]

Name: Evony Starpath
Nickname: Lightning
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Appearance: She has died electric blue short cut hair that's short enough not to become a grabbing hold device. Her eyes are blue, and when she uses her semblance or is angered they start glowing, and occasionally spark. She is six foot and eight inches with long arms allowing her to be very good at using pole-arm weapons.
Personality: Hardcore badass, she's one of those people who exercise each day to make themselves even more fit than just fit. Aside from the super competitiveness she also is fairly sociable and is a fairly easy talker.
Weapon: Thunder, it's default is a long pole axe which has an double sided axe head, the head's capable of converting into a spearhead allowing her the capability to use it as a stabbing and throwing weapon. The whole thing can collapse down into a crossbow which is very much like a wookiee bowcaster which she uses a combination of dust loaded ammo and her semblance to use it for a devastating ranged weapon at the trade off of very limited ammo (typically a dozen bolts) and slow fire rate.
Semblance: Electrokinesis, she also can generate her own electricity as well, however this causes her to get very hungery very quickly.
Strengths: She's very fit and genuinely has an easy time getting along with other people.
Weaknesses: She's highly competitive as well as being potentially over confident considering just how skilled she is.
