I'll get my CS done tomorrow, I've everything done but the backstory.

[OoTrillionoO]

Name: Kaken(Ka-ken)

Age: 31

Birthplace: The Capital

Side: Revolutionary Army

Personality: Kaken has a personality that conflicts with his ideals. He believes in the preservation of life in every form, no matter how small or how large that life should always be cherished and kept sacred above all else. However, he loves to fight. He loves to see the dances that is the beauty of a perfect battle, biased to neither side and perfect through its every being. He loves to see the blood as it sprays into the sky and the people cringe in pain as their defeat becomes eminent. Thus, he seeks to fight but will not put down an opponent. He may brutalize them in such a way they could never see, hear, or move again, but he refuses to take someone's life if the battle has been decided.

Backstory:
Kaken was born into a long line of warriors, loyal to the capital. The family motto was preservation before prosperity, and this showed through his families' teachings. Through success and a general knack for warfare he moved swiftly up the ranks, achieving the rank of Colonel at the age of 26 and acquired his own squad of 8 soldiers. However, he found little enjoyment in his work, and despite his families' teaching that the goal of life was longevity, he began to question. He questioned what it truly meant to preserve. Thus, he came to the conclusion that true preservation was not of oneself, but instead of one's species. Through his time acting on the capital's behalf he'd also found a lack of difficult opponents. His job consisted of extermination of illegal immigrants. He knew full well the strength of the higher ups, but he'd found little combat on the field that could even be considered similar of their own. He wanted a challenge to test the brutal personality he'd developed, simply out of lust for violence.

Pairing these two facts together, he turned his back on his country, his family, and his squad, opting to join the Revolutionary army. Therein he found his Teigu, The Bleeding Marlin. The very presence of the ring appeared to act as though it was judging him, sizing up his worth and deciding his value. Drawn into the ring, seemingly trying to guide him forward he slipped the ring onto his finger. Almost immediately it reacted to him, stopping his blood flow before speeding up it's flow. Blood began to drip from his eyes, covering them completely in red. Kaken did not react in panic though. Instead, he sat down, accepting this judgement. It was something most would consider odd but to Kaken it felt natural. The ring never exuded any type of malice. Ultimately his blood began to flow back into him through his left eye socket, permanently staining his eye black and red, losing all vision in his eye.

To this day he has never regretted any sacrifice he himself has committed and still sticks to his ideals, preservation before prosperity. Thus, he has chosen the path which he believes will preserve not himself, but humanity as a whole. Turning against the capital, all the while having a little fun along the way.

Teigu

Teigu Name: Bloody Dragon Possession: The Bleeding Marlin

Teigu Appearance:

Appearance

Teigu Type: Offensive, Support

Teigu Abilities:

Note: Abilities listed with a * in this list contribute to bloodloss, one of the major weaknesses of this Teigu. Bloody Limbs being an exception with a (*) Meaning in most cases it does not contribute to bloodloss.

(*)Bloody limbs: The skin along his mid and lower back splits open, morphing his blood into any number of tendrils(Usually ranging from 2-6 with higher numbers becoming thinner and thinner) Upon morphing the blood begins to harden almost immediately, the outer area of the tendrils resembling sharpened scales and the inner area having the liquid pulled from the outer layer increases the density of the blood cells. The tendrils can be manipulated freely but specialize in close range combat, due to the fact that over long distances the tendrils become thinner in diameter, decreasing not only ease of control but also rendering them to be far less dense, thus they become susceptible to attacks. (The tendrils are usually able withstand the majority of swords. However, heavier weapons such as large hammers or maces are able to break through the tendrils outer layer, causing the damaged tendril to shatter and the blood within to well... Kinda go everywhere.)(He is also able to retract undamaged Bloody Limbs, reducing almost all blood loss)

*Spear(s) of Malice: The users wrists split open, pushing blood out into the users palm. This can either be used to generate a singular thick, hardened spear. Or it can be used to generate multiple smaller, thin, and brittle spears to splay outwards in dual arcs in front of the user.

True self-control(Triggered): Upon triggering, the user is granted semi-control over their blood within their body, heightening physical reaction times, as well as physical strength greatly. The user can also immediately harden their blood, preventing bloodloss. (They can only harden their blood to the equivalence of a scab and thus this can't be used defensively.)

True self-control(Passive): Outside of battles the user's blood flow is heightened. This allows the user to have semi-increased healing speeds(about 15%), immune system functions, and is generally healthier overall. The user is also able to forcefully remove any blood from within their body, this allows the user to remove anything within their blood stream such as poisons or shrapnel. (The effects of this can also be transferred to others so long as contact is consistently being made with the user)

*Bleeding Exchange: The user is able to transfer their blood with others with no negative side effects. The user can then treat the received blood as their own. If the user gives their blood to another the person receiving blood is granted a minor version of True self control's passive ability as well as increased blood clotting, dependent on the amount of blood transferred.

Trump Card:

*Bloody Game Master: Within this trump card exists two versions of one being. The first being the "King of control" ability. The user smashes the ring, shattering it into their skin and into their blood stream. The user is then granted full control of their blood as well as minor control over other's blood. For the user this allows them to forcefully harden others blood within their range, this can instantly cover open wounds, remove poisons and shrapnel, and boost the blood flow of allies as well as slow down blood flow, and movements of any the user deems within the given area. With full control over themselves, the user's fighting capabilities are also massively heightened, increasing speed and allowing what most would consider awkward movements to be done with ease. This is a one use move, destroying the teigu in the process. Some would prefer dieing, rather than using this move, simply to preserve the teigu. Thus, to many the existence of this ability seems pointless and would never use it.

The second form of The Bloody Game Master is the "Queen of Mayhem" ability. Upon vocal activation of this ability the user's blood flow and blood production is heightened beyond human limits, at first forcing blood through the mouth, eyes, and ears. It then rapidly develops, leaking blood through the users every pore, coating them in blood.
Internally the nerves dissipate and are replaced with hardened blood tendrils, allowing movement through control over blood. This blood is then able to be controlled at a heightened level. The user is unable to see throughout this. However, every ability is able to be performed at 2 times their previous capability and at every angle directing from the user. The "Queen of Mayhem" ability is treated as a self destruction ability and can only be performed once. One may be able to keep someone who has used this ability alive. However, they would most likely be left in a vegetative state.

Strengths:
-Increased blood flow, allowing for heightened bodily functions and processes.
-The diversity of The Bleeding Marlin's ability's allows Kaken to act as a support and offense roll, though Kaken excels in the latter.
-Kaken has had training in knife throwing, allowing him to fully utilize his Spears of Malice ability with ease.
-Kaken has become slightly sensitive to blood movement due to his Teigu. This allows him to feel heightened or lowered blood flow from others.(Basically most of the time he is unable to read others unless their emotions are on a huge spike or if they're serenely calm)

Weaknesses:
-The major weakness of the Bleeding Marlin is the amount of blood loss it causes for the user. (Listed from greatest to least this is the order of how much blood loss each one causes. Bloody Game Master, Bloody limbs(4 limbs), Spears of Malice, Bleeding Exchange. Although these tend to be the average, many factors can change the order of this list.)
-His Teigu lacks defensive value, in all cases a powerful strike can shatter his hardened blood as though it were glass.
-Hot/dry conditions accompanied with dehydration can make his blood become even more brittle, making it even more susceptible.
-Rainy conditions can make it harder to maintain his blood, making it more dense than necessary and increasing the weight behind it.
-The theme of his Teigu is the concept of self-sacrifice, thus he shows weakness in large scale or long lasting fights, due to the fact that he needs to consistently sacrifice himself to use his abilities.

This looks really interesting. Do you need prior knowledge of this anime to participate?

Nope, it was stated previously by Hebigami that canon stuff wasn't going to be used.

As Trilliono said, you don't need any prior knowledge, just a quick read on the Teigus, maybe. Since we haven't heard from the others, and because Harurun will only be doing momentary appearances, I don't see why not, so I'm willing to accept you! If you are still interested, of course.

I'm also wiping up a character bin, so that you can post your characters there. BTW, you are accepted, Trilliono.

Here's the character bin!

Mai

Mai

Name: Mai

Age: 26

Birthplace: Imperial Capital

Side: Imperial Capital

Personality:

Mai appears to be calm and gentle in nature. She likes to maintain a composed and relaxed sense of self and portrays this in the way she'll speak and act in situations. She enjoys having deep conversations, especially about philosophy or topics which provoke deeper thinking. She also carries an appreciation for art in all forms and enjoys beautiful scenery. Mai usually proves herself useful in crisis situations, often remaining calm and putting her mind into solving a problem rather than focusing on the problem itself. That isn't to say she doesn't know fear, Mai can become fearful and even intimidated if she's presented with a situation she isn't sure she can win. This will usually result in her faltering in how she presents herself which will be when she looks for friends and those close to her for guidance. Mai is very observant and appears to have a heightened sense of perception when interacting with people, often able to tell when she's being lied too or if something seems out of the ordinary. People around Mai will notice she favors to observe those around her, including her enemies before she'll directly engage with them.

Backstory:

Mai was born and raised in a noble home, being provided everything and anything she could ever need or require. Money, food and shelter were all at the fingertips or her family and it was because of this that her parents could afford her a decent education as well as private lessons in various art forms such as dance, the violin and even martial arts classes when she reached a certain age. Mai knew she was a privileged child, though until latter in her years she remained ignorant to the world outside of her families wealth and fortune, having no concept of poverty. Despite all she was given Mai was never really happy, especially with the relationship she had with her parents who withheld from nurturing her during her upbringing. Growing up she was forced to take on many responsibilities and undertakings that she didn't want too, though any chance of discussion with her parents about it fell on deaf ears. They had plans for her and as a bearer of the family name they demanded she obey their rules and words without question. Years latter after Mai graduated and became able to apply her skills in the real world, her parents gifted her with a special relic that contained unique properties, hoping it would help her to secure a place or rank within the Imperial Capital. It was quite a gamble, the relic containing the possibility to reject and even kill her. However it seemed the relic was compatible and it was then that Mai's life truly began.

Weapons and Equipment:

None.

Theme Song:





Others:

Mai can sometimes express OCD like behaviors in some of the things she does, such as neatness of a working area or things done in a certain way. These tendencies seem to be minor, however they do appear to bother her when messed with and if done intentionally it could provoke and trigger her temper.

Teigu

Teigu Name: Fists of Death - Yami

Teigu Appearance:

Yami

Teigu Type: Elemental, Offensive

Teigu Abilities:

Strength of Grim
The most basic ability the gauntlets provide is the increase in strength which enables the user to lift almost three times their own body weight. This also enables the user to punch with a higher degree of impact, using it's innate element of dark to reinforce the strength increase. This means impacts from punches are delivered with staggering and devastating amounts of pressure, enough to cause significant trauma and even death when struck by these punches.

Abyss Walking - Passive
The user of the gauntlets gains the ability to jump between shadows and dark areas that fall within the users line of sight, allowing them to phase briefly between reality in order to essentially teleport short distances. If the shadow is removed or light is used to remove the darkness in the area, the user will be unable to return and will be forced to seek other dark areas close by for them to return to.

Nevermore
The user sends forth a flock of crows made of dark to attack the enemy with their talons and beaks. The crows are incredibly weak to light and can be destroyed physically by attacks, the user will also be unable to cast this ability in direct sunlight though artificial light does not seem to affect them. This is the relics only ranged attack.

Reapers Nightmare
This ability can become active when the user directly grabs a person by their arms, legs or neck. The user may gain insight into the victims inner most fears and is able to project an illusion of the fear into the immediate area for a certain amount of time. The user may also use this time to withdraw information from the victim, however the process is consequently longer and leaves the user vulnerable to attack. Additionally too much time spent within the mind of another can have severe mental backlashes which will render the user dazed and possibly confused for a short amount of time.

Sprint of Death - Passive
This ability is only able to be used during the night and allows the user to run and move incredibly fast. It is a limited time ability and can be slowed by light, however this ability is best used either for engaging opponents or fleeing from battle. During the daytime this ability can still activate, but only functions at a third of it's ability power, making the user fast but only as much as the fastest human who is without power.

Trump Card:

Darkness Eternal
The gauntlets absorb all the natural and artificial light from the area, creating complete darkness that only the user can see through. During this time the user gains additional buffs to their other abilities, making them stronger, faster and generally more deadly. In addition to this ability, the user is able to project illusions into the darkness from their own imagination, allowing enemies to experience and see things they wish for them to see. So for example, should the user want to make it appear as though they're standing on a mountain, the darkness will react like a blank canvas and change to project that environment. However If the user opts to cast an environmental illusion such as that, the opponent will be able to see the user for as long as the illusion remains active, unless the illusion directly covers the user through use of a wall or any kind of illusion object. Unlike some of the relics other abilities, this is the only one unaffected by daylight. Also unlike the illusion caused by the relics other ability, these illusions can directly effect the victim through touch, smell and other methods by targeting the victims mind and projecting onto the senses. So for example, if an illusion stabs you it'll feel as though you're being stabbed even though in reality you aren't which as a consequent can severely harm the victim as their body would still suffer the trauma.

Strengths:

- Allot of Strategy application.
- Significantly better in the presence of darkness.
- Can work well in team fights.
- Can deflect blades and projectiles due to the relic being extremely durable.

Weaknesses:

- Strong aversion to light.
- Can cause mental trauma to the user.
- Can cause difficulties in adjusting to light.
- Weak and slow projectiles despite the number of them.
- Taxing on the mind and can cause severe mental exhaustion if the user pushes themselves too hard.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok, this is my attempt. Sorry if the background is vague, I didn't want to step on any bits of canon information I didn't know about. Hopefully this is ok, I tried to balance it as best I could by giving it a glaring weakness. If anything needs changing just let me know ^^

[Hebigami Shiho]

Mostly, I think your CS is okay, just some minor details. Your Teigu, rather than being 'Armor' type, would be more an 'Offensive' type. An 'Armor' type covers the whole body, like Incursio and Grand Chariot (Check wiki for the reference). You can put that it is exceptionally durable, though. Also, could you tell me a little more in the backstory as to how she enrolled into the military and what did she thought of it? Or was she scouted for her being a Teigu user, rather than ever joining the military? The capital usually does like so when they find an exceptionally skilled person. Of course, if you want to reveal that in IC, I'd understand. So, two people have their CS's accepted, Winter's is pending, and we've heard nothing much of ImportantNobody, Phobos and Sketcher. If you two are lurking around there, could you tell me if you're still interested and working on a CS? Otherewise, I might as well open up the spots. After we receive notice of them, I'll proceed on to make an OOC.
