Now, now, Tob, if I don't have to alter V-mon's personality for Magnamon, then it should probably be fine if Gankoomon is consistent with past digivolutions. They're new Knights, aren't they?And I'll go tweak colors.

I see that- but there's a difference between referring back to what you've already put, and that being a personality that is a broad base such as V-mon/Magnamon, and not letting me know what's up with the personality. Understand? Not trying to dig at xander- see below.

Oh okay. I just wanted to make sure LordKnightmon wasn't overpowered, but if that's the case, I'll change it.

Defensive orientation and weaker physical strength is enough.

I was just trying to translate the attacks, that was the best I could do... I wanted to keep them all in the light theme, and those were the best ideas I could come up with. I'm sorry if I'm a bit bad, I'm just super streassed about school. I'm trying to do my best, I really hope we can reach an understanding.

Okay, xander. Let's get on the same page. You can slow down on RP related things if school is an issue. I get it. Now, the important thing is thinking of how you want to play your characters in an interesting way. Do that first, and leave everything else about the CS as secondary for now. Once you've thought of that, do your best to put it into words in the personality section. I don't mean to make this stressful- it's supposed to be fun. But there's the matter of quality. Like... I don't want there to be one player- and this is anyone, not just you- who the other players feel doesn't offer anything, and the only way I can check that is by evaluating your ideas, which I can only do by looking for the underlying potential in the personality section. Is that understood?

EDIT: I'd like to remind everyone that there's a link to the OOC on the first post of this thread right at the top.

I suppose I understand, and this isn't stressing me out much it's just comeing to the end of the term with only two As. I'm sure that I can get going in the to, but its hard for me to try and say something about personality without much backstory or blatantly saying what he would do in a situation.

Vincent will play as the awkward and sometimes belligerent role. In game he will prove time and time again that he has a hard time understanding people because of his background but also that he has a good heart and that many times he'll prove himself. As a reference think of a more well rounded izzi from the first season.

The Digimon is an outgoing and frankly reckless character. In game he'll take an active role in most things he's present for, and he'll often mess it up. He's just as nice as his tamer, but he has a just as roundabout way if showing it. He'slike an 80's sitcom older brother, sometimes a bit mean but he proves himself to only be looking out for everyone.

Dynamicly they're actualy fairly simulerz but neither would ever admit it. They're equaly awkward and stumbling through social interaction, but in opisit ways. And they both are probly some of the nicest people whem you get past thair egos.

Okay, then make that apparent in your CS. Take your time if you have to, but make it so that we can tell how things would go by reading the personality, more than being told specifically, ya' know? It's called "Show, don't tell", but more accurately, "describe, don't state". Unless it's for dramatic effect it seems.
But yeah, like RBY said, look at other people's CS's, and see how they did it so you can see what methods you can take for yourself. All CS's are compiled on the first page of the OOC. Here you go. Right there.

Mind if I stake a claim of interest and request to be the operator of an eventual Jesmon? :3

Sure. Although you don't _have_ to use canon Knights, or even canon Digimon, (fanmades/recolors/variants are cool with me.) but if you want, you can. I'd like to see your CS/know how you'd play Jesumon before you use it though. Mainly because Bandai itself wrote it/him sorta like a Mary-Sue with not-the-best lore connections, in my opinion. Also, there's a lot of dragons already, so anyone who wants a beast/bird/plant/machine as a Knight is welcome. I might make sure there's an Ice/Beast Knight myself. Well, Sleipmon is an Ice Beast, but well, lupine I guess.

allright, I hope I'm still in the running. I wrote up the cs, [here](http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/74687/posts/ooc#post-2315360) but it took me a bit to fix it because of the shut down of the system and the new systems new workings.

Your progress is good. There are still some... conveyance issues, mainly sometimes confused spelling. It still stands that Lobomon is a Champion, and I'd prefer if at least one of Gankoomon's canon techniques is kept. Your personality sections are fine now. Perhaps replace Lobomon with, say, WereGarurumon, or MachGaogamon, as other wolf like Ultimates? Even IceLeomon/Panjyamon could fit the bill, since he has a sword.

All right, although I could use your help with makeing resoable tranlatioms of the moves. As for that, MabRy I could instead have two champion levels that skip to mega level. Or something...

> Oi, too many dragons? I can look for something else~~<3 > > And he's kinda Mary Sue bc he's also Jesus If you don't have a problem with using another Digimon, I'd appreciate it. Or you could simply explain how you'll interpret things. No, it's a Mary-Sue because A) it somehow magically is better at life than the other knights B) It's _supposedly_ the "new leader", despite Omegamon still being a thing and Alphamon having the Empty Seat from day one, C) being able to copy its "mentor"'s specter thing not once, but thrice, and randomly having access to nine swords because of it, D) being able to randomly defy physics with no drawback. E) Having a relatively (to Japanese audiences) exotic name/origin, without reflecting it in any way. (I mean if it were well researched, it'd be closer to Seraphimon before it was a Dragon. More fitting would be a lion, or a sheep. Even an aquatic would fit better than a tailsworddragon. Also making a knight out of a famous pacifist is sort of absurd. It'd be like a Ghandimon being a thing, and a Knight.) > All right, although I could use your help with makeing resoable tranlatioms of the moves. As for that, MabRy I could instead have two champion levels that skip to mega level. Or something... That's a non-issue. It's too easy to copy/paste if you don't remember, and looking at it enough times will help you remember. No, that doesn't make sense... you need an Ultimate before you can Mega, and it's not like Lobomon's power is that great. V-Dramon could make sense, because it's about that strong, but not Lobomon. And while I comprehend that not everyone's spelling can be perfect- I mess up a whole bunch of times- you have to double check dude. Or at least install a spell-checker on your browser so you can notice when it's unintelligible. I can't act like all this would be worth it when by the time it's time to post in the IC, I have to read your posts three times to get what you're trying to say before I can tell what happened. Simple accidental key messups, I get, I do that too, but some of them are pretty bad. Sorry dude.

To help, [one wiki](http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Gankoomon) seems to suggest ideas for how the moves work without being overly powerful. Regarding stages, why don't you swap Lycanmon and Wolfmon? Make Lycanmon the higher stage?

@RBY- those are basically the same descriptions that Wikimon gives, save for Tekken Seisai, but that literally translates to "Striking with Fists", so it's not that hard to imagine. The only one that may be an issue is Chabudai Gaeshi, as there's no real automatic restriction on how large the area is, unless it's implied that it's scaled to what is a proper chabudai table to Gankoomon. In which case, it's reasonable, if not underwhelming, seeing as they seem to be four person sit-on-the-floor tables.

22xander, I have a suggestion: you could put Lobomon/Wolfmon back as the Champion form, then make KendoGarurumon the ultimate and Beowulfmon the Mega I. Just an idea, but it could work. (Though someone may have already suggested this and, if that's the case, I'm sorry XP)

Hmm, I'll think about it. But maybe lycanmon will be his form for a while until repureifieing himself into wolfmon. In that case I'd have two champions and I'd just have to add one after that and before Beowolfmon. As for my spelling, I'm sorry... I'm doing a lot of this on my phone, so that's why. I won't do that with ic posts if that becomes to much of a problem, ok? :) I'll figure it out...

It would have been helpful to let us know you were using the phone. At this point, you've had a LOT of suggestions. Pick one.
