[OOC] Astrovia: An Anthro Fantasy World

[Lugia]

I'd still kinda like to have the pic, though... wait, let me guess... your character's either a bear, or a mouse, right?

[Azaria Blue]

@Lugia Good guess, a mouse.

[Lugia]

Hm... any specifics as far as appearance goes with your character? I MIGHT be able to find something from somewhere. Not a guarantee, though.

[Azaria Blue]

@Lugia How kind of you. Something that doesn't look TOO animated. You know what I mean, I think. Grey or brown fur would be nice but I'm not picky :)

[Lugia]

option 1

option 2

option 3

Note: I'm not up to date on Disney, but the first one might be Disney... it also might not. I dunno. Also, funny thing, all of them have brown fur. Couldn't find any decent ones with grey fur.

[Shard]

@Lugia

I freaking love option 2.

[Azaria Blue]

@Lugia Dawwww! Thank you so much <3 I was going to play female but these are so cute and yet fierce. Thank you again :D

[Lugia]

So, @shard, do you think you could help me with my picture issue? My character's gonna be a birdman, but... er... most of the bird anthros are pretty obviously female, if you understand what I'm saying. Not only that, but some of the ones that don't add bird breasts, aren't all that well-made, or are based off of a pokemon, which I'd rather not have, contrary to my username.

As for Azaria, no problem... and I can see why you ended up with that kind of issue.

[Azaria Blue]

@Lugia

Maybe?

Sure

Little Better

[Lugia]

Not quite what I'm looking for, but thanks.

Thorvald

Thorvald Greyfeather

Nickname/Alias:
Lightning rod

Race:
Shael, falcon

Gender:
Male

Age:
30

Additional Info
Personality:
Some people have called him naive, childish, and even immature... just as well, as he's usually in a very cheery mood, and is also optimistic, always trying to find the good in every situation. That being said, he's not stupid, and won't trust, say, a monster or a demon just because they said that they're good. He absolutely loves adventure, and just generally being out of the towns and cities of the world. No matter what the challenge on an adventure, Thorvald will face it with... the closest thing to a smile that a birdman can have. While he does love adventure, he actively avoids caves, just due to the low ceiling... of course, if he's traveling with allies who want to go into the cave, he'll go with them, just because he doesn't like the idea of having to ditch allies, even temporary ones. During the few moments where he's in town, it's usually just to sell any useless magical items, or to get rid of any extra weight he's carrying. He's oddly determined when he's facing monsters or other such evil beings, and even tries to scope out weak spots in an enemy's armor, despite him still smiling while doing so.

He enjoys the company of other adventurers, though, he usually doesn't stick around with one group for very long, and while he starts off considering them allies... if he sees them harming other civilized races, stealing, or doing anything involving exploiting others, Thorvald will viciously attack them, and try to have them arrested. He will never kill a member of a civilized race, as he feels that even the most deranged, evil people can be rehabilitated, they can become better people... at least, so he thinks. When he's not adventuring, or taking one of his rare breaks from doing so, he can usually be found in some pub somewhere, chatting someone's ear off about one of his recent adventures, and, much to the disdain of the barkeep, never ordering any drink other than cold, plain water. He is kind enough, however, to give the barkeep money if the water ends up being free, as, in some places, it is. He'll tell them that it's not payment for his drink, but rather, for the conversation.

Appearance:
Unlike what his last name might suggest, Thorvald has mostly white and brown feathers, with only a few grey feathers. He's somewhat short, even for his species, and always wears that same blue outfit for no real reason. However, he doesn't wear the helmet in the picture, nor does he ever wear shoes. His beak and talons are a bright yellow color, and his eyes are blue.

Height:
5'0"

Weight:
80lbs

Fight related
Magic:
Elementalism; lightning.

Class:
Dragoon

Weapons/Items:
An iron spear, a short bow, a quiver with 30 arrows, a bag with 12 javelins, his leather armor, and clothes.

Strengths:
Strong Flier: He has always been much faster and more agile in the sky, and his wings are strong enough to keep him in the air for a long time.

Lightning Resistance: He's been zapped by his own lightning magic that, not only has he gotten the nickname 'lightning rod', but he's become resistant to lightning as a whole.

Spear Thrower: With his training, Thorvald's become really good at throwing his javelins, as well as, on occasion, his actual spear, and can throw these objects pretty far, and pretty quickly.

Weaknesses:
Slow on the ground: He's... kinda slow and sluggish on the ground, and it's notable that he can't even run while on the ground.

Hates the cold: His feathers aren't exactly meant for protection from the cold, and just as well, he hates it. He may even land if the cold air is too unbearable in the sky... he's also weak to ice-based magic as a result.

Stormtrooper Aim: However... he's horrible at using his shortbow, and while it's got more distance than his spear or javelins, he can't aim the thing worth beans. If you gave him a chance, he might even actually miss the broad side of a barn.

Techniques:
Thorvald typically relies on his wings, and ability to fly. His techniques revolve around him throwing his spear, or one of his javelins at the enemy, and then casting a lightning spell on the weapon after it's stuck in the enemy's flesh. He has also been known to swoop down on the enemy and attack more directly... though, even when he does that, he always tries to cast a lightning spell. Rarely, when the enemy doesn't notice his presence, he'll toss his spear directly downwards (if the enemy is directly below him), and fold in his wings to fall with it, just to shove the thing in even further. He will zap the spear after landing on his enemy in this case.

Finally decided on a picture. It's kind of a placeholder, but it works.

@Treshan

Honestly, the only thing I am seeing is a person who is driven to kill and nothing more. It's a character designed around the concept of killing with no actual personality or drive other than the fact that he likes to rip people apart. I am afraid I cannot accept this character. His personality section leaves much to be desired and the only thing I am getting from this character is "He had a hard life, he likes killing."

I am afraid I cannot bring this guy into the RP.

@Lugia

It's really late here so I am afraid I won't be able to help you today, but I am happy to see that you're putting effort into finding what you're looking for.

[Lugia]

So... I'm guessing my character won't work, either? I mean, he's not anything like Threshan's, but I've always been bad at using the 'personality' section, to the point of removing it from my RPs, and just using someone's bio section to figure out what they're like.

[Hans von Lek]

@Shard

Yay, thank you! Posted it in the char tab and suchlike.

Although I had a question relating to curses. How flexible are they? Could I for instance do classic fairy tale shenanigans with them?

[Treshan]

@Shard it's ok, that was my first character. I did not expect a good grade :D

@Lugia

I am afraid you're correct. I'm not really getting much from what I am reading...

Where Threshan's character was driven by nothing but bloodlust, it kind of feels like your character is the same but on the opposite side of the spectrum.

[Shard]

@Hans von Lek

Yes, you could.

[Lugia]

Again, I'm horrible at using the personality section, with the main reason being from a habit of ignoring it in apps due to people misusing it or using it poorly back where I came from. I'm okay with you denying my app, but it will take me a while to fix it, is all I'm saying.

[Shard]

@Lugia

You can take your time. I am happy to see character who doesn't fall into the typical "dark" streak role players so love to go with. I want to accept your character Lugia, mainly because he's a breath of fresh air from the characters I see on a daily basis. It's like so many players have something against making characters with a more light hearted personality.

Okay, look. Because I see great potential with your character, I will actually go ahead and accept him, though I'd appreciate it if you took your time in adding to his sheet when you are able. As long as the character shines in whatever way he can in the RP, I'm happy with him.

So, I go back on my previous decision and decide to actually accept him because it's refreshing to see a character who knows how to smile.

Edit:
Also, I love his picture...
