[OOC] Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

[Lugubrious]

So uhmm, where should I pop myself?

@GingerBoi123

Into a collab with HereComesTheSnow

[GingerBoi123]

@LugubriousThanks, and again sorry for my absence

>Reads Sarina's semblance.

RIP Kiran, even your giant sword may not pull you through this one.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Yo that stuff is kinda sketch though

[Lady Seraphina]

I counted like five distinct abilities all lumped under the header of: STAR POWER!

[Sho Minazuki]

I don't think the actual buffs are major though. It is fairly overloaded considering it can also half-half, but I think the strength is the extremity of the abilities.

Well, in any case I'm waiting whether Lug will match Varius with someone else or something.

@Sho Minazuki

Well she's got an offensive and defensive attack drone which can also aid her allies, increase strength, defense, perception, endurance, and agility output for five minutes, immobilize and stun an opponent for three minutes.

Then the other star can provide a passive light source, blind her enemies, create the effect of desire upon herself making her wanted by people for a day and is useful against human, Faunus and Grimm opponent (still not sure about that one, seems rather iffy), and pacify enemies draining them of there will to fight for three minutes.

Plus she can do any combination there of if she summons both stars at once and all of this without any major side effects past a recharge period. For Mars it will "effect her negatively" without any real description on exactly what that means.

Well, in any case I'm waiting whether Lug will match Varius with someone else or something.

@Sho Minazuki

Is Varius one of the senior combat matches? If so he could go up against my Avendell.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Nothing back from Pann yet.

Star Power for the win! Though TBH I have had been unsatisfied with the semblance I created for Sarina. I got the general idea of it to be Star-Themed but reading it as its creator, It needs to be reworked. I rushed it when HOB was just starting so I could get into RP and hoped to rework later on to be better polished. When I think about now, her semblance was supposed to reflective of her background.

When I originally created Sarina, I based Beacon on a high school level (in RWBY, I thought the schools were comparable to RL high schools) and I wanted to RP as a senior so I made her 18 and as a top ranking student. Later on the general consensus I believe was that the academies were more like universities so with that I also had to go off with the fact she was a prodigal child which also entirely changed the background of the original Sarina in mind retconning the the few background info (which I have to find) I put out such as before the inclusion of Vega into the RP. Those few could be considered non-canonical.

With the retconning of the original Sarina I had in mind, also retconned her semblance and I just do not think her semblance is reflective of her anymore which is why I want to rework it.

@Lugubrious, would you be fine if I reworked my semblance?

[Lady Seraphina]

@shadowkiller912 I still don't understand why it was easier to retcon the entire backstory you'd created for her thus far than it was to change her age from 18 to 20.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Already waiting for fistbumps between Jorie and Sterling tbqh

@Prince of Seraphs

I felt that if I were to change the age, it would also mess up the backstory itself since events in her backstory were to happen at specific ages... Thinking about, I could have changed her age and that was it :/ but her old backstory I found lackluster and too convoluted to explain. That is why I went into a blank slate.

[Lugubrious]

PM me what you think Sarina's semblance ought to be. Try not to change it too drastically, just rework it.

With Pannette still absent, let's go for Prince's Avendell v Sho's Varius and my Rika v Forsythe's Impara.

[NaraK]

@floodtalon Can I post something that makes Sangue interact with your character? :o

[Forsythe]

Cobalt has a bloody, gory death wish >_>

[harinezumikouken]

Cobalt has a bloody, gory death wish >_>

@Forsythe

Mmmm...

[Onarax]

I know I've said this a few times, but I will have a Napoli post up in Grimm Studies tonight.

[HereComesTheSnow]

nah he's got this

[Lugubrious]

So's anyone gonna do the next contest? If not, I'll think of something wacky, a writing challenge most likely.

[Onarax]

Right I've been meaning to get it up.

This week's just been really busy for me, the Show I'm in opens this Thursday.
