[OOC] Crystalline | Mage Mafia RP

[TwilightDragon]

I'll probably get my Charlie's up today. I already have an idea for each of them.

[Zombehs]

More males you say? Suppose I could throw one up for Gryphes, pity the lieutenant spot is already taken though.

[TwilightDragon]

You're interested? We do need more males. XD

I'm planning on making a male for Gryphes and a female for Alicornia. Speaking of which we also need Alicornia members.

[Zombehs]

Thinking about it.

[TwilightDragon]

[Flamelord]

Username: Flamelord
Name: Aikuro Senji
Age: 35
Gender: Male
Crystal Color: Ivory Green
Allegiance: House Alicornia
Rank: N/A
Skills: Negotiations, diplomacy, pickpocketing, melee and ranged combat, Aikuro tends towards those skills more devoted towards maintaining an organization, rather than fighting. He's also good at gambling and card games.
Abilities: Aikuro is proficient in the art of illusion magic, though it isn't particularly strong. As a result, his spellcasting is based on himself and smaller scale illusions. Other than that, he is something of a jack of all trades, with a bit of healing magic to his name.
Weapons: Tends to use a Wakizashi and a Katana, though he will use firearms when needed.
Appearance:

Appearance

Personality: Aikuro is a relatively calm and demure fellow, who prefers to avoid fighting if he can help it, in favor of more diplomatic solutions and relying on his wits to give him an edge. His calm facade hides a cunning interior, and he can be very inquisitive and philosophical when need be. He prefers to think of himself as the carrot to the stick of the house, and is all suave and tact. At least in his mind.

Still, he is very loyal to the family, and if it looks like he betrayed them, it's probably because he has some long term end in mind, rather than an actual faltering on his part.
History: Aikuro was like many in the House Alicornia, born into it or simply joining by association as part of how it operated. It was them who raised him, who trained him, and he contributed to it as best he could. His magic made him even more able to do that, though he soon found that he wasn't suited for the rigors of heavy combat. There were more suited to that anyway.

He did his part when he became old enough though, becoming a part of the House apparatus, one of the people that went in to try and deal with things before they sent in the big guns. It didn't always work, but he did his best in that regard. And that is what he has done, no one incredibly exceptional, but still good enough for the job he has to do.
Other: Um, this is hard. Postmeridie, I guess?

[OwO]

One hell of a 3 year old.

[TwilightDragon]

Is that Kiritsugu?

>D

Accepted of course.

[Guilty Spark]

@TwilightDragon Alicornia's boss is still available, right?

[OwO]

I made a second character.

Jomei

---

"I'm borrowing this."

---

Username:
SilverDawn

Name:
Ishihara Jomei

Age:
21

Gender:
Male

Crystal Color:
A clear turquoise

Allegiance:
House Alicornia

Rank:
N/A

Skills:
Fleeing, observing people, speaking, great memory, and "borrowing things".

Abilities:
Jomei's main magic is object possession. He can take control of a limited amount of inanimate objects and control them. If the target is a small object, he can control it via psychokinesis. If the object is large (5 pounds to 40 pounds), he can move it short distances with a quick burst of psychokinesis.

If the object has a vague human shape (mannequins, dolls) then Jomei can control it as if it was his own body (he won't be able to move his own body) and he will see through the object's eyes. Jomei needs to touch the object possess it this way. He will also need some time to adjust to it.

When an object is possessed, it will glow a dim turquoise.

Jomei's secondary magic is a passive ability, so to speak. Jomei can see exactly one second into the future. Through this, Jomei can essentially change the future (but actions that take one second). While this ability is useful, it takes a lot of concentration for him to pull off, so he rarely uses it.

Weapons:
Jomei carries around 8 small double-ended throwing knives with him at almost all times.

He also carries a large pack of googly eyes with him. For ceremonial purposes, of course.

Appearance:
Jomei stands at 5'4" (~160cm) tall, and he weighs around 115 pounds (~52 kg).

Personality:
Jomei is quick-witted man who acts as a messenger and scout for House Alicornia. He's impulsive and has a minor case of kleptomania. He tends to stay away from combat and instead chooses to observe. He is a great conversationalist and can bluff his way past most situations. He has a deep hatred for House Gryphen.

For some reason, he hates Masatake.

He likes being called Ishihara if they're not friends with him.

History:
Jomei was the son of the previous boss of House Alicornia. As a child growing up, he was considered to have the strongest magic. His psychokinesis was extremely weak, but he could see all of the events of the next three days. This made him an extremely useful asset to House Alicornia, as they could easily see if any conflict they were in would end in loss.

His powers became weakened significantly when he was given some time off. He didn't use his powers, so he had no idea that it was coming. While walking through his home, he saw something out of a window. It was a small shiny toy. Jomei wanted it. He snuck out of his home and went to grab it. As soon as he touched it, he felt a burlap sack forcefully put on his head. He tried to scream, but a rod of metal hit him in the head.

When Jomei woke up, he was in an extremely guarded hospital. His head and body were covered in bandages. The doctor said that it would be a miracle if he survived past the next week.

Jomei lived, but at a cost. He could no longer use his foresight. Distraught at his only talent being gone, he began to train daily. He sharpened his magic to the point where he could control it with a large amount of finesse. He trained his foresight as much as he could, but it would never reach its former glory. Through the course of 12 years, he managed to achieve the ability to see one second into the future when he concentrated.

With nothing else to do, Jomei joined House Alicornia again as a scout and messenger.

Other:
The backstory is just a placeholder until the boss comes out, then I will change it to whatever so it fits in.
Placeholder theme

[TwilightDragon]

Accepted. Though I don't like psychic powers, they're controlled enough to make it work. And Alicornia boss is taken, Gryphes is not, I think.

[Guilty Spark]

And Alicornia boss is taken, Gryphes is not, I think.

@TwilightDragon

I thought it was the other way around? VariousNW claimed Gryphes on the last page.

[TwilightDragon]

All high powered positions are taken. @iSuspect took the Alicornia boss, but if they don't show up soon, it'll be open.

[Guilty Spark]

@TwilightDragon Oh, I missed that. Alright then, I'll keep making the character in the meantime in case they don't show.

[OldManWong]

I'm still working on mine, just interrupted a few times is all...

[Guilty Spark]

@TwilightDragon How old are Gryphes and Alicornia, because it looks like some people (myself included) assumed this civil war in Sorrilith was old news, but there's not really hard evidence of that.

Also, finished my potential-boss sheet. Now to wait and see if iSuspect arrives.

[TwilightDragon]

The civil war happened eight years ago. ^^ Can't wait to see it.

[VarionusNW]

I'll try to get my character up tomorrow. The most difficult part so far is choosing a name...

[TwilightDragon]

Nah, it's choosing the appearance. XD

[Guilty Spark]

@TwilightDragon Well we have some characters who were born into Gryphes, that wouldn't be possible if the civil war was only eight years ago, right?

@VarionusNW http://www.behindthename.com/random/ clicking on the name after you've generated one will also give you its meaning.
