[OOC] [RWBY] Rescuing Remnant

[Shadowcatcher]

Also, my friend, Inertia, might be making a character for Team RMPT, but I don't know. He's being a fuccboi.

@Dirty Dan

oh i forgot to mention, let him know that P is available in that team for now and he should reserve it before someone else does.

[Phantomlink959]

Considering it's a dorm-based college-level school, I think it's safe to assume they have student parking available.

[Dirty Dan]

Lol alright.

Also, he reserved it in the Interest Check.

[GingerBoi123]

Hiya! I'm the guy that reserved T in HRNT. Just thought I'd introduce myself here. Hi!

[Inertia]

Reserving 'P' here too, then

[Shadowcatcher]

Reserving 'P' here too, then

@Inertia

nice to have ya! i think that makes all the spots filled, assuming those who reserved spots plan to finish characters.

To IC or not to IC. that is the real question...

[Phantomlink959]

I should probably figure out who Kanika is going to partner with, huh?

[Dirty Dan]

I'll see once we have all of the characters.

Also, maybe the IC should go up once every character is in?

[Phantomlink959]

Aye, that would be best.
I believe Shadow said Honey would likely be partnered with Fox's character, right? which would leave me with.... Turner, who hasn't been finalized yet.

[The Fox Without]

Yeah I'd rather wait a couple of days and have a school based RP that manages to get past the first day for once, instead of dying before we're DONE WITH THE FUCKING INITIATIONS...I forgot where I was going with this...

[Phantomlink959]

Don't worry, I'll make sure everyone survives initiation over in my RP.
might require a deus ex machina, but I'll make sure it happens.
This one is going to be less combat oriented, yeah?

[The Fox Without]

I meant the RPs themselves died, I have a horrible track record of that happening, tired of spending time making these characters only to barely get to explore them -_-

@The Fox Without

i feel your pain. *pats his back* i really do.

This one is going to be less combat oriented, yeah?

@Phantomlink959

yeah, i find that combat seems to slow things down as we wait for others to post. my idea is having this more school based so we can focus on character development rather than trying to be badass all the time.

does that make sense?

[Shadowcatcher]

Reserving 'P' here too, then

@Inertia

feel free to post a WIP here if you need to.

[Phantomlink959]

Yup! Kanika is sufficiently badass without being shown as a brutal killing machine, so character interaction will probably be more interesting with her than combat.

Pax Ianthe

Name: Pax Ianthe
Team/occupation: RMPT
Species: Human
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Handedness: Right handed
Aura/Effects: Azure blue
Symbol: This
Physical traits: N/A
Misc traits: Has Heterochromia iridum, purple and white eye.
Nickname(s): N/A

Appearance

Height: 5'9
Weight: 151 lbs
Eyes: Byzantium purple and Ivory White
Face: Relatively pale
Hair: Purple with light black streaks.
Physique: Averagely toned.
Combat/Casual Outfit: An inner, kevlar-sewn purple shirt, with a few scratch designs under a black hooded jacket with black and purple patterned sneakers. He also wears a pair of jeans.

Characteristics

Personality: At first impression, people view him as a sharp tongued and generally rude. He is also relatively lazy, compared to some of his teammates and generally tries to avoid training when he can. He also likes to tease and quip at the expense of his friends, making him seem rude to people who doesn't know him. While he is lazy, he does tried to avoid training he gives it his all to improve whenever possible. In his spare time he generally tends to just sit around and read books that he can lay his hands on. Underneath his teasing and sharp tongued nature, he is kind, he tries to help people out when he can.

In battle, he is cold and calculating rather than rash and abrasive, he tends to plan his next moves and has contingencies when something uncalculated happens. Though Pax would generally just try to avoid fighting all together as he sees it as cumbersome and energy siphoning, though he will fight his all whenever the situation calls for it.

Background: Pax was born in the center of Vale, to a middle-classed family, and generally had a decent life. He was always a sharp-eyed young fellow, despite being rather lazy and rude, and thus his parents knew that he had a future in the Hunting business. This was further enhanced by the few times he and his father went out to hunt in the surrounding forest, mostly for sport. He usually complained about it, but went anyways, and showed that he was a good shot with a regular civilian rifle. Due to this, and his parents wanting him to be motivated about something, he was sent to Signal on the first chance they got, and there, he trained as necessary to become a decent enough Huntsmen. He didn't really know why, Maybe the pay would be good, and shooting a Grimm in the head would probably be fun at times. Regardless, he continued in Signal, creating his weaponry, while coming up in some of the top leaderboards at the academy. He was sent to Beacon after his graduation, to officially become a Huntsmen. His parents were proud, all things considered, and gave him all of their support, despite seeming distant at certain times. It was only because they were naturally busy workers, and Pax never really was offended. They were the ones who set his future in place, and due to this, he decided to just go with it. Who knows, maybe it would be fulfilling in the end?

Combat info

Position/Class: Sniper/Ranged
Landing strategy: Soon™

Weapon: Pax's weapon is called Promessa, and it's a long-ranged, highly-calibrated sniper rifle/rail-gun. It's a mixture of the two, due to the fact that it has a sniper's scope, yet, when the trigger is pulled, it sends out a long, thin, compact rail of dark purple/violet energy, that moves at a speed faster than that of a regular bullet. It has immense piercing power. As he holds down the trigger, the rail continues to be sent out in a high-frequency humming sound, and it can easily be sent out in bursts by tapping the trigger. By applying force to the butt of Promessa, it can fold up into a sort of purple energy blade, made up of the same dark purple energy the rifle uses as ammunition. The energy is basically his Aura condensed into clips/magazines, which he has multiple of. When the magazines runs out of the energy, he has to replace them. In Promessa's rifle form, the magazines are ejected/inserted from the bottom. In it's blade form, the energy magazine is actually the blade's grip. Replacing the magazine is done by simply grabbing Promessa by the blade, ejecting the spent magazine, and then securing the fresh magazine in it's place.

Semblance: He can hone in on key areas, and enter a sort of 'bullet-time', where adrenaline rushes to his brain and he perceives things at a slightly slower timeframe than others. This allows him to attack multiple targets at once with Promessa, in it's rifle form. It also augments his speed and reflexes.

Fighting style: While he is a long ranged combatant, he has trained himself in close combat quarters, should the situation call for it. His combat style is focused on speed and light steps and using the enemy's momentum against them. He trains Aikido, Taekwondo and some forms of Krav Maga on a daily basis. For his weapons secondary form, he has trained in Iado and Kendo.

Trivia

Relationships: Two parents who fully support him, Mile Ianthe and Kaith Ianthe.
Knows Ranulf via stopping him from killing a man who was groping a younger female.

Notes: Ianthe is the name of a purple flower. Has profeciency in cooking since he had to cook all his meals himself.

Done, and I hope that's fine.
Edit: Fix'd emblem.

[Phantomlink959]

Must. resist. urge to deconstruct weapon....
Seriously, I'm a bit psychotically obsessive when it comes to weapon design, and I see more ways than I can count to improve that thing without actually upgrading it.

[Shadowcatcher]

Must. resist. urge to deconstruct weapon....

@Phantomlink959

dont you dare. *glares*

@Inertia

Turner Miyahata

Name: Turner Miyahata

Team: HRNT

Species: Human

Age: 17

Sex: Male

Handedness: Right

Aura/Effects: Turner's Aura is a deep turquoise, and lightning crackles and surges around him. It's only active in combat, and not that visible either, although small cracks and zig-zags of blue energy can be seen sparking around him.

Symbol:

Physical traits: All traits pretty much seen in the image. Hes not hiding anything under his clothes.

Nickname(s): None

2) Appearance:

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 165 lbs



(serves as both casual and combat outfit)

3) Characteristics:

Personality: Turner is actually calm and chill. A happy guy on the inside but he usually shows a straight face, with a smirk or a small chuckle here and there to indicate his emotions. He likes listening more than talking and always open to help others. He doesnt let on much about himself though, making him a little mysterious in that regards and sometimes isolates himself from conversations. But when it comes to fighting, he becomes determined and even more colder than what he is outside of combat, gaining an incredible focus. However, he has a selfless nature meaning he would and does take blows for other people, despite the risk. You can count on him for anything, from fighting with you, or keeping your secrets.

Background: Turner has actually had a pretty much normal life, no loss, no bloodshed. It was kind of a surprise to his parents when he finally decided what he wanted to with his life, and that was to become a hunter. He studied everything, techniques, famous hunters, recorded knowledge of Grimm, anything that could prepare him. When Turner found out he was going to Beacon, he was ecstatic, and promptly gathered his belongings, said goodbye to his family and left without a single thought. Nothing would stop him from being a hunter, he was going to make sure of that.

4) Combat info:

Position/Class: Assassin/duelist.

Landing strategy: He will turn his weapon into their axe mode and try to latch onto something.

Weapon:

Kaminari Inazuma

Kaminari Inazuma is a multi-form blade weapon consisting of four melee transformations. The blades fold in and out from each other and the handles are connected to each other by a thin metal wire, resembling string almost. When Kaminari Inazuma is in its axe form, they can then convert into machine pistols that fire at a high rate. The metal string can extend and shorten too, making it great for creating momentum-based attacks too.

Semblance: "Piercing Light"- Turner channels the electricity he gets from his aura and converts this stored energy into one massive beam attack. However, he will be so tired after using it, he would simply black out and faint. He has only ever attempted this once and he knows it is to be used in a last ditch effort.

Fighting style: Turner focuses on counter-attacks, and uses acrobatic skills to out manoeuvre the enemy, before closing in again to strike. He can attack in quick flurries, however his actual blocking is lacking a bit. He trains forms with all of his weapons and can be seen using the metal rope to it's full advantage. His gun-play usually consists of gunning his enemies down rather than carefully placing shots but it works more for his kind of style.

5) Trivia:

Relationships: None to note.

Notes: His weapon name translates from Japanese to "Thunder Lightning".

@GingerBoi123 you forgot the fighting style bit
