[OOC] When Magical Girl Truants Became Commonplace

[Moonlit Sonata]

Shamelessly copy/pasted from the Int. Check. If you think it shouldn't be shameless, then you should realize that I'm not a masochistic dog like you~!

---

Welcome, one and all, to the best Magical Girl proof of concept ever! And anyone who says otherwise is a piece of trash who doesn't even deserve to be stepped on by one of our girls~

In this wonderful little world of the roleplay's, magic is no special thing. Nope. Not at all. Rather, it's as common as can be. Upon reaching the age of ten, almost every cute little girl out there acquires a special snowflake magical ability of their very own~! There's just one little catch.

They suck.

What? You want to throw fireballs or something? Ha, good one, champ. Maybe your hands are just really warm all the time. Maybe.

No, this isn't one of those "worst superpower" things like "can be invisible, but only when nobody's watching" or something. They're full-fledged powers, they're just ridiculously mundane.

So, where do I get off calling this a magical girl roleplay? Simple. Out of all the little girls in the world, a fraction of a fraction of them have the ability to transform into the sparkly costumes you see in your Japanese annie-may. Those ones, in their transformed state, not only gain stock magical girl stuff like super-strength and flight, but they also have their mundane excuse for a power amped up to an absurd level.

Ms. Hot Hands from our earlier discussion can now shoot fireballs and her hands are hotter than the greatest of mixtapes. Yay for her. Or let's say a girl's normal power is something like being able to sing okayishly; if she transforms...well, if you can't think of a way to turn that into an obscenely strong power, then this probably isn't for you.

It's also worth noting that, when a girl acquires her driver's license (almost always at the age of 16), her powers automatically vanish. As such, no character can be made outside of the age range of 10-15.

What happens if someone never gets their driver's license, you ask?

Trade secret~

Your characters, each a transformable magical girl (unless you want to make someone who can't transform for your masochistic fantasies, or because you think you're smart enough to beat transformed magical girls with a weak character), are middle or high-school delinquents, depending on their age.

Your enemy is the most experienced magical girl in the city: the high school's Student Council President.

Challenge her authority, challenge your fellow delinquents for supremacy, hell, challenge the leaders of the government if you're so inclined. Just have fun~

If you have any questions, just ask! That said, let's lay down a few ground rules, shall we?

Rurus

No metagaming, no godmodding, auto-hitting, no controlling other people's characters, no doing things you shouldn't be able to do. This is all standard stuff.

No being a bully OOC. You can be a bully IC though. That's totally fine.

If you'll be taking a leave of absence, let me know so everyone doesn't wonder if you died. If you don't do this, tragic things might happen to your character while we're waiting for you to post, which would be really sad.

You are not Yamato Jesus. You are not always right.

And here, have a handy-dandy character sheet~!

Character Sheet

Name: ...well?

Age: 10-15.

Gender: Female.

Appearance: Yes, pictures are fine. Yes, you can put the picture at the top of your app. Yes, if you have a transformable magical girl, you need something for their transformed state.

Personality: Describe how your character thinks, acts, and feels. Don't skimp on this, you pig.

History: Tell us all about your traumatic history with two dead parents, an abusive orphanage, and one friend who betrayed you and scarred you forever. Or since you're a little girl, say something normal.

Magical Power: Name of the power. The more chuunibyou the better.

Standard: The untransformed, useless piece of shit power you have.

Transformed: The absurd, abusive power you have when transformed. Only for magical girls who can transform, duh.

Other: If you need to ask what should go here, you're banned.

Oh right, you should know this, but post characters in the OOC. When I've approved them, you can put them in the Character tab.

[Moonlit Sonata]

Here's our darling little seito kaichou to start~!

Student Council President

"Good morning, everyone. It's wonderful to see all of you here today."



"...now then, please return to class."

Name: Emi Hishikawa

Age: 15

Gender: Female.

Personality: The sort of existence who was "born" rather than "made," Emi can be said to have gone through her life without changing in the slightest, as she was already born as a completed being. Emi is the perfect image of a student council president, above the populace but perfectly able to govern them. Her compassion for others is boundless, and she will go out of her way to make sure the student body is happy. At the same time, she is straightforward and harsh in her enforcement of rules. As a completed being, she considers her ethical standards to be the objectively correct ones, and so, while she aims to make the student body happy, it is less so done in terms of "what would make the students happy" and moreso in terms of "what would make Emi happy were she in their place". Rather than understanding others, she dismisses their viewpoints as wrong and posits herself as the absolute standard by which to measure all things. An uptight, overconfident ojou-sama without peer. Any existence that calls itself a delinquent is a flawed existence as per her worldview.

History: Born and raised in a standard ojou-sama-esque manner, silver spoon in the mouth and whatnot. Throughout her life, Emi has always been revered as an idol of sorts, an unreachable peak of humanity. First-rate in all manners and worshipped by the student body, calling her the most exemplary human being in the school district would not be an exaggeration in any sense. At the moment, she is a first-year high school student, and has inexplicably come to serve as the Student Council President despite merely being in her first year. Her approval rating is sky-high, and under her leadership, the school has become a generally more orderly and peaceful place. Truancy has been stamped out, and test scores are at an all-time high. Sasuga Emi-sama.

Magical Power: Air of Command

Standard: The ability to give very charismatic speeches.

Transformed: ???

Other: Is the purest maiden of the roleplay.

[Fish of Oblivion]

And she's done.

EDIT: History and other pointless bullshit added, good to go now!

[Aphelion]

I'm going to be working on mine soon :]

[Natsu]

Totally writing up a sheet for this. And holy shit that's a big max character count.

[Natsu]

Can I get some more lore for this world? What's the tech level? Any special Cultrual things? I'm assuming this takes place in the eqivilance of Japan, but if not, where?

[Moonlit Sonata]

Remember when you were in middle school? It's like that, but Japan. Except that the tech level isn't the tech level when you were in middle school. It's better. Unless you're in middle school right now, in which case the tech level is exactly the same as when you were in middle school.

[Natsu]

That was beautiful.

[Natsu]

Sorry to double post, but how in the name of Kyubey do you guys get those pictures? Is there a generator, or are you super good at Googling?

[Moonlit Sonata]

@Natsu

What do you mean?

Pictures like those

[Moonlit Sonata]

Are you referring to the images themselves, or the transparent background?

If the former, the pictured individuals are related-ish. The former is Saber from Fate/Stay Night, the latter is the Emperor formal wear for the Saber from Fate/Extra CCC.

If the latter, it's just Google.

Pictures like those

@Natsu

Sonata's just being a turbonerd and borrowing Saber. If you want to find some pictures for your girl, this is a fairly good resource for pics. It's where I got Kiyoko's pictures from, anyway.

@Fish of Oblivion

It's because it's ironic, dammit. I already explained this. Mou...

[Natsu]

Oh, so they're actually of a character from something. I was curious how you found two pictures that looked similar, and were of magical girl style. Sorry for being unclear

EDIT:
Thank you Fish, i'll be using that then.

[Magnato]

I will proof read this tomorrow morning, but here is my CS

Hider

Name: Enuru Ginru

Age: 13.

Gender: Female.

Appearance:



And the normal version of her is just less magical and with shorter hair.

Personality: In Weaboo speak: Eneru is a genki girl that tried really hard to be dandere and ended up as a kuudere. In human words, she is an energetic and eager girl, often being the one who comes up with plans in her group, yet her idea of cool is the one of a Ayanami-type character, one that stays quiet and shows little emotion. She tries to be indifferent and quiet but always end up speaking when something annoyingly dumb is going on, resulting in cynical remarks, and her efforts to hide smiles often result in an odd face and a half smile, resulting in something most would see as a smug grim or an indelicate giggle.

History: When she was 6 a truck ran over her family (including distant uncles), her best friend, her dog and her pokemon cartridge. Eneru's parents were engineers on a famous electronics company and her older brother was a gundam aficionado, these influences made the girl like science, electronics and robots since her earlier days. When she was a bit older she notice the science kid was always the one bullied in tv shows, at first this made her scared of schools but having watched gunbuster she decided to ask her parents to get her trained (At first she asked for a giant robot but was convinced to give up.)

She never took the classes very seriously, but in this age of lazy as hell kids she stood out as a brute, soon finding herself surrounded by other delinquent girls. When she got into middle school she tried to join the computer club, but it had been gone for years and nobody else wanted to join, disappointed she joined the only other club with computers in it: The newspaper club. At first it was a bore but soon she found out her true passion, hacking, it all started with a simple email invasion to help an article and before she could see she was wiretapping phones, placing cameras on bathrooms and receiving invitations to join the NSA when she was less of a loli. She has been only doing it for the newspaper but sometimes her delinquent friends suggests that she should start blackmailing students, maybe even teachers for an extra money.

Magical Power: EXEC_WITH.METHOD=MAGICA-PROTOCOL

Standard: She can mimic computer sounds with her mouth and, with a bit of effort, speak like a cheap vocaloid knockoff

Transformed: A half mecha girl transformation, sadly no lasers, but her punches get really hard and she can even do a rocket punch (though its a bit problematic since she loses her hand until she finds it and sometimes it goes really freaking far). She also is able to scan the area with her antennas, most of the info is completely useless since it is shown in math way too complex for a 13-years old to understand and most of the measures are in archaic US math instead of the international metric system... but the radar is neat.

Other: If you take off the last three letter of her name it becomes Energy spoken in eleven

@Natsu This time I didn't use a custom but when I do I usually use either a dollmaker from Rinmaru or Kisekae, the later is better but is also NSFW and a bit harder to work with.

[Natsu]

Oh gosh darn it.
I Was so close to making a hacker character.
R.I.P dreams.

[Natsu]

Hey, here's my Character. It's probably still rough around the edges, so please, feel free to give me construcive critism on how to fix it. In addition, it lacks pictures yet, but once accepted, I will track down a set of pictures for her.

My character

Normal:



Transformed:



Name: Akira (Aki) Okura

Age: 14

Gender: Female.

Personality: You told me to make a delinquent. Time to do just that.
Aki is a brash, rebellious, who has "Issues with authority" As teachers and parents would tell her, but she personally prefers to say that she doesn't take shit from anybody. She is naturally distrustful of people, more so of people who have any form of command over her. This is because she sees that power ultimately corrupts if a person has power for a long enough period of time. She is also very vengeful, and impulsive, so if you cross her, be prepared to get your comeuppance in a timely manner. She has a strong sense of right and wrong, and, after learning she can transform, has become a self proclaimed arbiter and enforcer of justice. If she decides that you are to be trusted, and can be her friend, she will have endless amounts of loyalty for you, to the point where she will do anything to protect you, or avenge you if you feel that somebody has trespassed against you. Her basic moral standards stem from the idea that you should only be restricted on doing what can directly cause physical or emotional harm to other people. Lying, cheating, and directly harming anybody are the major things that she has issues with. Beyond that, a person can do most anything, be it act impolite, swear, or act like a slob, she'll accept a person for whoever they are, as long as they do no harm.

History: Aki comes from a very strict home, one which has rules for how to act, speak, and that set a tight schedule and curfew for her. Her parents are afluent, but not from hard work, but from the luck of being from a long linage of very rich people. Neither of them have ever worked a day in their life, and want that to be the same for their daughter. However, they have been turned cruel, unforgiving, and cold from their lifestyle. Though they preech proper behaviour, they fail to practice it. Since she was a very little girl, whenever Avi made a mistake, she instantly reprimanded. At first it was a gentle reminder that she wasn't acting proper, but as she was young, she couldn't help but wonder why she was supposed to act they way her parents wanted her to. When she asked, she recieved the typical, "I told you so." and that never worked for Avi. She needed a reason not to do something, so she would continue on acting how she wanted. This was seen to be callous of her, for her to so openly defy her parents wishes, so then they started to punish her for not listening to her. Grounding her for weeks for simple mistakes, like not saying please and thank you, or even locking her in her room for a night if she did something overtly bad. She hated the situation she was in, so she found a way out. She resolved to control herself completely around her parents, but to act out when she was no longer their watchful eye at school, or when alone with friends. This relationship with her parents was when she first realized that power will currupt all who have it, as it had with her parents.

Things took a major turn for the better for her when she turned 10 and unlocked her power. She found that she could cause music to be played from apparently nothing. Her life could now literally have a soundtrack of her own creation. As far as her parents know, she only uses it to play classical pieces, primarily to entertain house guests at dinner parties their family semi-regularly host, but in reality, she uses it to listen to any variety of rock, j-pop, and American pop when her parents aren't around.

In school, she doesn't have many friends, buts that's a consequence of her unwillingness to give anybody second chances, or budge her personal standards for how she expects they should act. If a person lies, betrays, or wrongs her even once, it is borderline impossible for that person to convince her to like them. One person that she particularly hates is Emi Hishikawa, in part due to her particularly powerful role as the Head of Student Council, but also because she see's her a close match to what Aki herself could have become if she hadn't found a way to subvert the expectations of her parents. She see's the standards Emi has as completely subjective to herself, as they are based upon what Emi personally believes to be proper, instead of being upon something actually objective.

Magical Power: Musical Melodies

Standard: Evoking any peice of music to play from nothing.

Transformed: She can control music and sound to a great degree. She can make music so loud it can burst ear drums, make shockwaves, or just alter pitch to make very high pitched noises to annoy the crap out of anybody that happen to be pissing her off

Other: She's actually hid the fact that she can transform from her parents, in part because she fears they would use it to bolster their status even more. In addition, she works very hard to keep up a good girl facade in front of her parents, to the point where she's a completely different person. When she's with her parents, she's polite, curtious, and obedient. Her parents have no idea how different she is when they aren't around.

[Fish of Oblivion]

Alright, posting on behalf of myself, Sonata and Tatsua:

@Natsu
Akira is fine, go track down some character pictures and she's more or less good to go in the Character Tab.

@Magnato
Enuru is mostly alright, but her transformed power seems a bit on the weak/pointless side given a lot of what's useful there would be available to all Transformed Magical Girls. I'd suggest tweaking it and refining it, exactly how I'll leave up to you.

[Magnato]

@Fish of Oblivion Alright, was so focused on not being OP that I went to the other side I guess.

Eneru Mark II

Her transformed power turns her into a half-mecha girl, giving her a steel body equipped with engines on her feet and hands and a pair of antennas that can work as a scanner of the area and access electronic devices as well. She is not equipped with rockets or lasers but the mix of electronic targeting, jet propulsion and a metal fist gives her a good standing in melee combat. She can discharge her energy on a conductor like metal or water, but it will make her slower and may even end her transformation if she can't find a way to recharge.
