[OOC] Fate/Stagnant Apotheosis

[vFear]

After a mistake of spectacular proportions, I've managed to lose a mostly completed character sheet. I'll try to get it rewritten later today after work.

Here we go~ I'm particularly unsure about the stats, the mystic code and magic so direction with that would be particularly appreciated if there's any for me, @Unoedipal.
Happy to edit anything~

Name: 盧秋月 (Lú Qiūyuè).

Title: 请问少室山 (Qǐngwèn shǎo shìshān) - Will of Shaoshi Mountain.

Gender: ♀ Female.

Age: 27 (Twenty-seven).

Personality: To the world, Qiūyuè the perfect Shaolin Monk: she's quiet, pragmatic, values meditation and prayer, holds the values of Chan Buddhism dear, disciplined, and incredibly driven and committed. She takes her office as the "Will of Shaoshi Mountain" incredibly seriously and puts it before herself in all things.
Secretly, Qiūyuè has a desire to be dependent and taken care of. For as long as she can remember she's been trained to grant the wish of the elder monks at the Shaolin Monastery and be capable of acting independently in said pursuit but she's yearns to be taken care of and for somebody to take responsibility for her as opposed to bearing responsibility for a prestigious monastery. She sees the Holy Grail War as her ultimate test and her reward for passing, if she does, as being able to settle down and rely on someone.

Biography: Qiūyuè was born as the first of three children and the fourth generation child of the Lú family, a family of hereditary Shaolin Monks holding significant influences with the Shaolin Monastery. After a rapid series of natural and man-made disasters that left the monastery in shambles at the time of the first generation, the head of the family at the time announced that they would take up the burden restoring the monastery to its former prosperity through the Holy Grail War and such became the primary purpose of every family head since. As the first-born child, Qiūyuè became the heir apparent to the title 'head of the family'.

As is the established tradition in the family, Qiūyuè began relentlessly training as soon as possible while searching for the signs of a resurrection of the Fuyuki Holy Grail Wars. She assumed full command of the family at 18 years of age where her father abdicted the position to her and passed on the family crest, and went on to take up her duties whilst continuing her preparation. Despite one of her duties being to birth children in case the Holy Grail War isn't to return for another generation, she stubbornly views the Holy Grail War as her ultimate test and outright rejects the idea of raising children until she's either done or turns 40.

When the announcement came that the Holy Grail Wars had returned, Qiūyuè took the catalyst held by the family for such an event and immediately departed for Fuyuki despite lacking a command seal with the intention of securing herself one through action and presence. Luckily enough, she happened to get one.

Family History: The Lú family is a small lineage of magus within the Shaolin Monastery. The family is three generations long, with Qiūyuè being the forth generation; this holds significance due to the number 4's association to death in Chinese culture, and the elder monks are concerned that this is an omen of a bad outcome.

The family, to the well researched, is also known to favor heals and buffs as opposed to offensive magic in combat, whether it be on themselves in a direct role or on others in a supporting role.

Origin: Purpose.

Elemental Affinity: Wind.

Number of Magic Circuits: D.

Quality of Magic Circuits: B.

Od: B.

Magecraft: Healing: The ability to heal a living organism by increasing the rate of natural regeneration. The spell is capable of addressing a wide variety of injuries and conditions at a figurative 1:1:1 cost of progress to time to mana; for example, a simple wound could be easily addressed rather quickly whereas a mortal injury would require a series of prolonged sessions plus traditional recovery aids, such as rest and food, to recover from. Minor wounds and he healed at moderate range but more serious injuries require near-direct contact. This spell is featured in the families magic crest.

Resistance Defense: The ability to 'plate' surface areas, animate or inanimate, with defensive 'covers' capable of eliminating or reducing the impacts of attacks. In reality, the plates are focused sections of air pressing outwards to create wind resistance sufficient of simulating the effects of armor. The spell uses a figurative 1:1 ratio of protected surface area to mana on the caster and 0.25:1 of protected surface area on others and requires a four-count chant to cast. The spell is often used as armor and to enhance the ability of weapons, such as allowing a wooden quarterstaff to block attacks from much more menacing weapons. This spell is featured in the families magic crest.

Air Synchronization: A spell that enhances the ability of the target by having the air move around and against them in a visible and significant manner as to increase their speed and agility, in particular aerial agility. An effective magus can use this to 'glide' as long as they can support. The spell is toggled and consumes mana relative to how long it's enabled. This spell is featured in the families magic crest.

Resistance Offense: An offensive attack using dense sections of air violently surging in one direction to inflict blunt trauma. Resistance Offense is Qiūyuè's personal adaption of Resistance Defense. The spell can be cast from any solid surface within moderate range and consumes the same amount of mana regardless. Uses for this spell include enhancing the power of an attack from either the caster or another combatants weapon and casting it from walls, roofs and floors to use the terrain to fight an enemy. The spell requires a two-count chant to be successfully casted.

Equipment: [Quarterstaff (Amplifier Mystic Code)] - A fairly plain stained quarterstaff, rarely concealed due to its large size. In reality, the quarterstaff is an amplifier mystic code for Resistance Defense, as to enable it to more effectively be able to block or parry much more menacing weapons, and acts as her badge of office as the "Will of Shaoshi Mountain".
[Shaolin Monastery Prayer Beads] - A set of stained wooden prayer beads with various accents, such as lengths of hanging yarn, beads and polished stones. Used solely for meditation and prayer.
[Red Woolen Blanket] - A nondescript red woolen blanket. It sees a variety of uses such as warmth, comfortable meditation and a makeshift backpack.

Skills: Discipline, unarmed combat, quarterstaff combat, gardening, meditation, prayer, traditional Chinise cooking and being able to sleep in the lotus position.

@vFear

Why does a Chinese family care so much about a backwater irrelevant ritual held in Japan that nobody cares about or even keeps records about?

The family views mana as chi

Qi is od, not mana. As a point of clarification, mana is the greater source, the prana in the environment, whereas od is the lesser source, the prana of living beings.

Healing

On what principle does this work? IE, increased natural rate of regeneration, something similar to the Dead Apostle's Curse of Restoration, etc.

Resistance Defense

Since this is a sustained magecraft analogous to making a Mystic Code, it'll take time to make instead of being an instant cast, just as a heads-up.

Air Synchronization

This will be much less efficient than using a broom where air movement is concerned, as a heads up.

The spell uses half the normal mana when cast on others.

Remove this. It'll actually be harder because the Resistance effect is a thing.

Three variations of this spell exist: a three-word chant that does a lesser amount of damage, a sentence-long chant that does significant damage and a two-sentence long chant that does more damage again.

Three-Count spells in this are treated as C rank, One-Count and Two-Count as D rank.

amplifier mystic code

For what specifically?

Giorgio Armadi

Name/Title: Giorgio Armadi, “King Nothing”

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Personality

Giorgio is someone who always valued strength. The strength to protect oneself, and the things one might consider important it above all other qualms within life. Usually introverted, Giorno regularly maintains a facade of confident boldness, backed up by his intelligence and his natural charisma, to make him look like a flawless person by his peers. Often single minded in focus, Giogrio tends towards the pursuit and mastery of single-aspects rather than the desire for complete understanding of an entire medium, he would rather perfect himself in a “genre” of sorts.

Giorgio also seems to have an extreme interest in western arts, though his affections largely lie with America. He greatly enjoys American music from the latter half of the 20th century, though his favorite genre is progressive rock. Don't try to tell him it was mostly British.

Appearance

Biography

Giorgio 's life was relatively simple, save for the whole "magus" thing. In his earlier years Giorgio was the sort of child that was fascinated by magic. Gradually though, just as exposure to a stimulus time and time again makes one desensitized to it, so too did Giorgio begin to simply see magecraft as just another facet of his life. With such an element as magic itself becoming steadily mundane, Giorgio 's enthusiasm to much of the world closed off in turn, only intensifying the need for him to act in a way contrary to his actual ideology.

His interest did progress though, as did his social life which consisted of a small ring of friends and a broader circle of casual acquaintances, with whom the boy had some decent times. Upon his becoming 15 though, he was able to become something...more.

He found out he was really fucking good at reinforcement. Like, really good. So he started doing things with that. Even if magic had grown mundane, it was so much more intriguing than the human norm, and it was all the easier a means for him to achieve the ends he considered moral. So he kept reinforcing things and stuff. Cause you can't stop, can't stop the rock. He heard of some backwater ritual in some backwater city and thought it could be fun to kill a week or two on vacation from school during spring break.

Family History (if applicable): Some irrelevant family without much history. Giorgio is the only real relevant Magus.

Origin: Reinforcement

Elemental Affinity: Reinforcement

Number of Magic Circuits: C

Quality of Magic Circuits: D

Od: C

Magecraft

Reinforcement (Prodigy): The Magecraft with the purpose of pushing a basis to the utmost. Only it's not really difficult for him. It is the same as adding something to an object that is already complete; in case of failure the target will receive it as a poison. This doesn't happen to Giorgio because Giorgio is good at this. Success requires a good grasp of the inner structure to fill openings with Prana. Giorgio has this grasp.

It isn't an exaggeration to say that he is worthy of a Sealing Designation for his ability in Reinforcement; however, his circuits are abnormal and thus are largely limited to Reinforcement, just as an individual could theoretically be limited to "swords".

Equipment: Equal to 7,500 US of A dollars in a prepaid visa.
20 really fucking good sticks.

Skills:
Can do his taxes without hiring a tax accountant and obtain the highest amount of taxes back.
Drive a Car
Drive a motorcycle
Cook Food without burning down the house (Sometimes)
Can use a sword to the proficiency of "double-plus good" with a SINGLE HAND
Can use a fist to the proficiency of "double-plus good"

@ADamnFiddle
Make the last round of edits I said to do in PMs.

[ADamnFiddle]

@Unoedipal

Sweet.

Also hello others.

[kusanagifire]

Hai there. Thats a nice master you have there.

[ADamnFiddle]

@kusanagifire

T-thanks m8ty. Same to you m8.

[Black Alice]

Would anyone like to pair up with my little girl?

[vFear]

@Unoedipal
I've made a bunch of edits if you have the time to flick over them and check if all's in order. Thanks for checking it over tho fam, fate lore continues to elude me no matter what I do.
I'm in particular a little unsure about healing. I've put in regeneration rate as I think it fits best but I'm not too sure.

[Unoedipal]

@vFear
Alrighty, you're good to go. Go ahead and move it to the Characters tab.

[kusanagifire]

@Black Alice Id take you up on that, but Vlad is already taken. ^^;

[Scrapula]

@Turboshitter's feisty Glamazon would act as a great foil for Hector. Is it fine if I partner with you?

[Turboshitter]

Sorry, I actually just partnered up with Fiddle ^^'

[Moonman]

@vFear
I'd figure Lú Qiūyuè and Baldwin would make a decent pair. After all, who wouldn't want to summon a 16-year-old leprous cripple, eh?

[Scrapula]

Dang, this is why it's always best to do things out in public.

@Flamelord, would you like to partner with Hector? They're kindred spirits in criminality!

[Hantu Kongkek]

On Lu: I'm assuming she was born and raised in China. Did the family stay in China? Or did they move somewhere else to have the other kids? The Chinese one child policy was enacted in 1980- 5 years before your character was born. I'm not the GM though. I just got curious.
