@KoL Surprised you didn't say Gaz's power was Oped since he could copy anyone's manifestations unless they were weapon based.
Copying a skill and being skilled on it's use are two completely different things. If yo said he could keep said skill for a long period of time, it would be an issue, but the way it's written (and the only one I'll accept w/o scrutiny) he should lose the copied skills by the end of a fight (thus not being very good in learning about it, unless he copies the same person over and over) and not hold more than one power at once. Those are the limits I'm imposing to his power, I should actually mentioned them earlier.
@Spriggs27 Hey, do u have an anime face claim picture to use for your characters? I'm curious to see what they look like. Also, I also sometimes make these cute character tags for each character, but without an image for you characters, I can't make it. lol
@KoL Let's just put it as, he learns it and loses it when he gets another power, but if he sees a different better power he'll take it, like if he fights Crimson and takes her flash step, and fought someone else that had a cooler power ( in his case ) the he'd take it and lose the flash step because he's focusing on the new power. I guess you can say he's like a pokemon, he remembers certain moves but can't keep them all.

I feel like Eiko and Crimson will be good friends

I can allow something as that, as long as he has a nerfed version of the power he copies, like say, around half strength. Otherwise it takes the merit of the original owner of the power, which is no fun.
We can see about that other issue IC, but I have nothing against it.
That wasn't long. My character is in the Character Tab for anyone interested.
Hey I took a quick peek at ur character's powers. I think you mean telekinetic and telepathic abilities. Telekinesis is moving objects with the mind and telepathic is reading minds, controlling minds, etc. LOL Just a friendly FYI.

Oh? I might just leave it though since she can do both.

Wait, what if he uses a "stockpile" Manifestation i.e. Juniper's ability to hold back pain and fatigue. Say he holds something in, then switches power. What happens to that excess energy?

Under my eyes, he would suffer the backlash, on the moment he switches from it, since he effectively decided to not concentrate on holding the damage anymore.
Appearance: Makoto is a tall girl of Japanese descent with a slender and athletic build. Her most prominent features are her unusual golden eyes and thick, waist length black hair. Her pale skin, towering height and ghostly appearance seem to intimidate most people, and her looks have even been compared to the famous Yuki-onna on multiple occasions. For personal reasons, Makoto quotes that she hates the colour of her eyes. Rumours have been going around that Makoto's eyes are so bright she can see through the dark, although that isn't true at all.
Makoto isn't a very colourful person when it comes to clothing. She's mostly seen in a grey leather jacket and combat boots, and a black turtleneck top and leggings. She also wears a special belt to hold her sword by her side and black fingerless gloves to increase the grip she has on her sword. During battle, Makoto will most likely tie her hair up into a single high ponytail.
Personality:
People say appearances can be deceiving – Makoto is one of those people who fit into that category perfectly. Although, not in the 'negative' sense others think of it to be.
Unlike what her ghastly appearance says, Makoto is actually a very talkative person, and enjoys socialising with others. However, some may see her as quite rude and harsh, as she is very honest and true to her own feelings and opinions. Because of this she has very few close friends, though Makoto is usually the one people will we seek for advice. She's also very observant and perceptive, and is a good listener.
Makoto is quite strong minded and hard to knock down, and will always do what she thinks is best. If she thinks its fair, she'll go with it. She hates people forcing others to do things when they don't want to, as she believes people should be able to make decisions for themselves rather than having others decide their futures for them. She strongly disagrees with things such as and related to 'fate', again relating to her opinion how people decide their own futures. This also means she dislikes fortune telling, star signs etc.
Short Bio:
Golden eyes. That was the first thing her mother ever acknowledged about her. Not the fact that she was now truly alive and breathing; she had golden eyes. Once the newborn Makoto had first opened them, her mother was delighted.
Delighted in the wrong way.
She knew her daughter was going to succeed. She knew she was destined for greatness from the very start. That must be a good thing then, right?
Not necessarily.
As Makoto started to grow, her mother loved and cared for her, teaching her many valuable things and filling her with her own ideals, hoping her daughter would become a 'strong woman' like herself. 'Fight for the city and you will be rewarded with praise.' As a young child, Makoto went on accordingly with her mother's teachings, and was beginning to be taught how to wield a sword. Makoto's undying loyalty towards her mother seemed unbreakable, and it looked like she wasn't ever going to leave the woman's side.
However, all things changed when her little sister Michiko was born. Makoto, now six years of age, was delighted to learn of Michiko's birth. But the mother? She was not at all pleased. Instead of the expected golden, Michiko's eyes were a dull brown.
She knew her daughter wasn't going to succeed. She knew she was destined for nothing from the very start. That was a very bad thing.
Very bad.
As she had predicted, Michiko wasn't anything special. She was useless at studies and iaijutsu, and was beaten down countless times for it. Makoto, horrified by this inhumane visage, did her best to protect Michiko. Unlike her little sister, Makoto was always loved and cared for, so why not Michiko as well? They had the same blood rushing through their veins, so why was it Michiko that always got hell and not Orihime? It just wasn't fair in her eyes.
So, as soon as she discovered the real reason behind this discrimination, Makoto became engulfed by rage.
It was when Makoto was around thirteen when she decided to face her mother head on. She thought it was absolutely ridiculous that her little sister was being treated differently because of the colour of her eyes. It even got so extreme that Makoto even threatened to gouge her own eyes out, until her father stepped into the scene to break the two up. Enough was enough, and so, a few weeks later Makoto moved out along with Michiko and her father. There was no way she would tolerate her mother's cruel actions any longer.
Manifestation: Strength of a Thousand – Simply put, Makoto possesses strength far greater than that of the average human. She applies her immense strength to her fighting style, using her sheathed sword to create devastating blows.
Weapons:Golden Trail – A sword that has been passed down the Kanemaru line for many years. Its most striking feature is its golden blade, which, although often mistaken to be forged out of gold, is actually a special metal that gives off a very bright golden light when Zetsu is channelled through it. This light can be used to distract opponents by revealing only a 1/3 of the blade from its sheath and flashing it in the enemy's eyes.
Weirdly enough, those that have used this sword rarely fight with it unsheathed. They instead use the sword sheathed to deal fatal internal damage as well as outward, using the enhanced strength that is usually passed down to make for some frightening blows. According to Makoto's mother, no youkai has ever survived to see the entire blade of this sword.
Equipment: Nothing special, maybe just a shoulder bag to carry money, food and small essentials.
@KoL When you say "humanoid" youkai, how much of the "youkai" part is ok? Tail and horns are ok? The character being taller or shorter than the normal is ok?

I mean general human size and shape, but extra features are no problem. Size should be around that of a kid around their 8 to 10 age range and that of a really tall basketball player, more or less
@TheWindel Thank you! Just tell me if I need to change anything. I was mildly worried about her power being a bit overpowered, but I was kind of imagining it would kinda serve as a wakeup call to her, if that makes sense? Like, she has a lot of power, and she kinda has to learn how to not to run in guns ablazing, lest she hurt someone on her team.
