[OOC] RWBY - Only the "Finest"

[Raijinslayer]

@LarfleezeI currently have CS to finish, though it'll take sometime due to lack of computer access at the moment.

[Bornlucky]

Whoa, I missed a bit since sleeping :V
So do we need to make a trailer or is it optional? I'm okay with doing it if not~

[pyroman]

@BornluckyTrailer is optional. just gives us a little glimpse into the characters before we get to the the actual RP.

Trailer - Burgundy

She walked alone in the night, her feet making soft indentations in the ground with each step that she took. The air was cold around her, but that could be expected of Atlas.

She stopped in her tracks. She believed she was far enough from the academy and her mentor. Her peers believed she was a prodigy. Heck, even she was starting to believe that there was some truth in that lie. Only her mentor knew the truth. She would be up until the early hours of the day, every day, training, fighting.

It was with her help that she found interesting uses for her semblance. She knew how to communicate with people like her mentor just by manipulating the vibration of the airwaves. She could also call animals, or deter them by vibrating at a certain frequency. Her favorite trick, though underappreciated by most of the staff at the academy was how she could manipulate the waves created by music to increase their intensity and power. Sometimes she played with water and made it into all sorts of shapes. Then there was the ferrofluids.

Her thoughts stopped. It was a common instance for her to forget that she could easily use her semblance without realizing it, especially when absentmindedly thinking about it. The ground beneath her shook, but it wasn't her who had created it.

She picked up her pace and broke into a sprint. She couldn't tell exactly what was now after her, but she knew that it was big.

She was beyond the safety of the academy from her current spot. She knew that Grimm were the the predominant species of Remnant. Humans and Faunus were stuck in little pocket settlements, relying on walls and hunters and huntresses like what she aspired to be. She wanted to be a Specialist, one of the best huntresses in Atlas. Maybe if the other kingdoms had a similar unit, they wouldn't be stuck within the walls of safety for as long as they have been.

A roar shook the trees. Bergen spun on her heel and readied Magesty within her hands. Her left hand on the handle of the sword and her right on the sheathe.

The blade was pulled out from its cover and was raised high above her. the closed end of the sheathe was dug into the ground before her. Her left arm swung down, the crown shaped pommel fitting into the curve. The blade turned, locking in with the sheathe and forming into one long spear.

The pounding of the ground was getting closer and louder. She didn't need her semblance to know how close it was.

The source of the noise was an Ursa Major, racing towards Bergen as fast as it's legs would carry it.

Her hands gripped Magesty in her full form, a smile forming on her face. "Come on Mage." She whispered to herself. Magesty was quickly pulled out of the ground as she dashed at the Ursa, her semblance using her weapon to create a sharp ringing sound.

The Ursa quickly lost its footing, trampling over its own feet and rolling towards Bergen. Once more Magest stabbed the ground, pole vaulting her high into the air to stab the fallen Grimm with the blade of Magesty.

Bergen twisted the sheathe, unlocking it from the sword and returning to her right side. The blade was pulled out soon after, and Bergen jumped off of the Ursa with no problem.

An Ursa, especially a major, was not something that would be brought down easily by her normal slashing style. it's large and hulking body meant that it moved slower, which meant that she had to move at its pace if she wanted to fight normally. However, that would have defeated the purpose of her style in the first place.

The sword was sheathed, her left hand encouraging the ursa to get back up again. As she expected, it did, and attempted to rush her again.

The two collided. The Ursa brought its claws down on Bergen, but her sword slashes cut deep into its paws, counterattacking whenever possible to keep its mobility as low as possible.

When the Ursa began to slow down, Bergen sped up, her slashes becoming more hectic and violent with each swing. Her semblance even rung her sword when it connected with the Grimm to create an additional sting.

When it could move no longer, Bergen leaped at the beast, Magesty tucked away in the scabbard as her left hand delivered a heel palm strike to it's head armor.

The Ursa's facial armor shattered, and along with it, did the rest of it's body. It was quick to dissappate into the world, leaving a huffinf and panting Bergen to herself.

She stood there for what seemed to be a good thirty minutes. Quickly afterwards, her body stood tall and she jumped into the air with joy. She knew that her mentor's saying was but a joke, but Bergen took it seriously.

One Grimm a day keeps the Reaper away.

|In Depth Appearance|
Silme is on the taller side, being around 6ft tall with room to grow, his silver hair cut short in a wild, unkempt style to keep it from getting in the way of his fighting. His eyes are a fierce amber color, closer in appearance to that of his animal lineage, especially when his instincts start to take over. He has a lean muscled figure covered with scars from his numerous criminal escapades, as well as a tattoo on his arm of a snarling wolf. As for his Faunus features, he has an easily noticeable pair of wolf ears on his head, as well as a tail, claws, and sharp canines that he's all to ready to use if needed.

|Likes & Dislikes|
✔ fighting, other Faunus, Scarlet Ravagers, taking humans down a pegor six,
✘ being alone, people in general, Faunus who try and 'fit in'Domesticated fuckwads, Humans, hyper people, being touched, being told what to do, authority, Carver, Carver's weird habits, Hunters

Weapon: The Scarlet Ravagers: He uses a pair of Specialized Customizable Clawed Gauntlets that he can alter for various combat and utility functions, as well as changing into either a pair of Customized SMGs, with rapid- and burst-fire modes, for him to dual wield, or into two double-sided short swords. All variations of weapons can be augmented with Dust cartridges for various effects and attacks.

He can also use them as a means of traversal by firing out the claws as a form of grappling hook attached to a good amount of strong, lightweight metal cable.

Fighting Style: Hit them faster and hit them hard, he is a Striker type fighter, extremely good at offense even against superior numbers. However, his defensive capabilities aren't the greatest, but they aren't the worst either. To help with this style, he's actually augmented his Aura so that it gives more of a physical power boost at the cost of it's defensive capabilities, making him a good deal stronger and a great deal faster than most, but taking hits is something he tries to avoid.

Sembalance: Corrosion, It is a very offensive Sembalance that allows Silme to imbue his attacks with a reddish-silver aura. This Aura is extremely effective at dealing damage, but it's usefulness truly shines when it comes with dealing with heavily armored enemies. With this ability, he can easily weaken most types of armor so and items, making him very effective at damaging and even destroying the weapons of others to lessen their combat effciency.He can even apply his ability against the defensive aura of others, though it isn't as effective, it still allows him to do more damage then normal.

|Personality|
♦ Aggresive ♦ Rebellious ♦ Somewhat Clueless ♦ Short-Temper♦
Silme is a loner by trade, and while he'll deny it vehemently, he really wishes he wasn't. He wants to connect with people, have real friends and family again, but he's afraid that he'll just get left behind again, abandoned by those he loved the most. Outwardly and in public, however, he's very abrasive, blunt, and vulgar, ready to speak his mind and pounce on anyone who tries to stop him(sometimes literally). The surest way to get on his shit list is to tell him what to do, as he hates that more than anything, especially if it's a human.

As far as fighting goes, he'll use evey advantage to win and will fight to the ducking end with all the feral energy of a wild beast. Now a trained killer, he'll have no problem ending his foes of the need arises, though not a second before. He has some sense of honor in that he won't fight a helpless opponent or murder innocents, but other than that, he can head cold and heartless as Carver himself.

|Place of Origin|
Vale
|History|
Silme is the son of two well-respected hunters, who were also terrible parents. While they did love their son, they were always out on the job, protecting others from danger while neglecting the one who needed them most. Then, they simply never came back, having gone MIA in the line of duty. Silme spent a few weeks devesatated by the loss, but that sadness soon turned to anger, distrust, and deep seated hatred against Hunter society as a whole.

Silme has since then gotten involved with some unsavory types, getting himself stuck in the criminal underground and making a name for himself for his impressive fighting skills. When he was in trouble with some gangs looking to put him in his place, Carver showed up to save his hide and forcibly employ him into his service. Silme hates this arrangement, but he can't get out if it since Carber has him by the throat in more ways then one. His time as Carver's protege hasn't been all bad, however, as the former hunter has taught him many thinks in the time they've been together that, when combined with his own natural skill and garnered combat experience, makes him a force to be reckoned with in battle.

|Relations with other characters|

|Extra|
Hates to be mothered or otherwise taken care of

Tail and Ears give away his feelings, especially when he try's to hide them

Wolf blood gives him increased endurance, Stamina, strength, and senses, though the most enhanced are his stamina and senses. He also has a very strong bite, capable of breaking bones if he bites down hard enough.

He has a helmet styled in the fashion of a Beowulf mask that he wears for intimidation purpoaes and to hide his identity while doing criminal activity. The eyes glow silver and red, and his voice becomes heavily distorted, adding to the monstrous appearance

Has a tough time controlling his more animalistic side

@Raijinslayer

I immediately though of a KanColle derived from this xD

[Raijinslayer]

@ForsytheI don't know why you thought that, but that is awesome and now I have the mental image of Mecha-Silme going around wrecking shit.

Also, would you like to collab a trailer where your character is trying to bust Carver and Silme, the former I still have to make a CS for.

[greywolf375]

Question: are we using the color rule for our names, or no?

[Raijinslayer]

@greywolf375I don't quite think it's a necessity in this RP, as I think a few have none color-based names, so I give a tentative no, but keep one on stand bye in case I'm wrong about that. I encourage it though, and don't be afraid to use fictional language if you can't find one you like from real life(Silme is some form of elven for Silver)

[greywolf375]

Yeah, I have one. Hyacintho, which means blue in Latin, as a last name. Might change it though, feels a bit unwieldy in the mouth

[Raijinslayer]

@greywolf375I know Silme's first reaction would be "Fuck that, I'll call you Cin and you'll have to deal with it." But yeah, it's up to you how you want to do that. Can't wait to see the CS.

@Raijinslayer

It is their last name, lol!

[Forsythe]

@Raijinslayer I'm already doing a single trailer (Although that'S not really a problem), But Mikto is still a cadet 2/4 years into the academy, and her task won't be catchign crooks anyway :P But I'll happily do something like meetup before the tournament or soemthing. That goes for anyone.

[Raijinslayer]

@ForsytheCool, I'll keep that in mind.

@greywolf375That makes more sense, though Silme still might call him Cin just because.

[greywolf375]

@greywolf375That makes more sense, though Silme still might call him Cin just because.

@Raijinslayer

I mean, that's fair, lol.

[Forsythe]

Like anyone won'T call Silme 'slime' because of the obvious typo =P

[greywolf375]

I was thinking that, lol!

[Raijinslayer]

@ForsytheHeh, I've done that on a few occasions cause of auto correct.

Jimmy's Trailer: The Ruined City

It's pretty good, I think I did the action pretty smoothly, broke it up with some dialogue so it didn't drag on.

Kind of went with a mix of Ruby and Weiss' trailer with an original flare of my own.

EDIT: Just so you know, his dust was pretty much gone after that last attack. And seriously, and I can't stress this enough, dust is really hard to control, his personality just makes it look easy...
