Well, there goes the kast semblance of subtlety, heh. Focused for Speedwagon would mean she is more efficient in her Reinforcement magic. Cute description with the power. Accepted; you can post them to the character tab.

@MadManMoon
I just meant to say the style of framing the points in the sheet was a bit obstructive to the goal of describing them clearly, but that's more of a personal gripe; the information is there, and that's all I require.

Beyond the Looking Glass: A CYOA Magical Girl Roleplay [Completed]

In a world where magma flowed, the skies burned red and temperatures were naturally high enough for the average lifeform to spontaneously combust, existed a cavern filled with creatures full of might and magic. They were dinosaur-like monsters with large, cooking volcanoes on their back, which was constantly brewing magical energy to blast beams of lava to eliminate their invaders. This was the nesting ground for such creatures, and… it was currently frozen solid.

The room was round, several of the gigantic volcano-creatures were sleeping in a ring, and now sleeping for longer than they had intended. In the middle a mirror had been placed, a specially prepared mirror which drained the surrounding area of its magic, and with the creatures cooking magic within them it meant this room was manufacturing magic for the mirror to collect. A little magic factory that had been prepared by the two individuals present. Two girls stood at the entrance of the room, one tall and one short, and behind them rose a similarly gigantic creature, a dragon made of ice.

‘Heh, I totally saved your ass there,’ the shorter one commented.

‘No way, I had that handled,’ the longer one retorted. ‘Also, you should act like you look and not use that word.’

‘As if there’s a kid out there these days that doesn’t say “ass”.’

‘Fine, then avoid using it as a sign of maturity. You’re older than you look, after all.’

‘Acting like a kid is, like, my one privilege in life! Buzz off, old lady!’

‘Hey! You know that- ugh, you know what? I’m not even going to bother.’

‘Yeah! Score one for “Frostbite”! Haha!’

The visually sixteen year old girl admitted defeat for the attitude of the visually nine year old. The taller was Tullia Barese, the shorter was Victoria Tretyakova. Tullia had long grey hair, and wore a white dress that ended in short black frills in a skirt as her magical girl outfit, meanwhile Victoria was a tiny purple witch with rough, purple hair and a nasty little attitude. Tullia had a staff of great power planted to the floor, while Tullia held nothing at all, seemingly unarmed.

Victoria had her arms crossed and looked pleased with herself as Tullia took out her phone and sent her message. They had completed their missions. Tullia did her best to keep focused, but the constant capturing of giant monsters for Asengav’s cause was wearing her thin. The two of them were experts at freezing giant monsters. Victoria distracted them, Tullia froze them. So they continued, being sent to hazardous world after hazardous world, sent to defeat the strongest present adversaries… They couldn’t do this forever. Yet, she knew. They weren’t worth anything to Asengav. They’d eventually be killed, and it’d be of no consequence to the interdimensional horror. She could but admit defeat as she heard the phone signal that they’d received a new message of orders. She looked it up. Her eyes went wide.

‘Uh-oh.’

‘What now? We fired?’ Victoria grinned a bit. Tullia looked at her, her face blank.

‘The… the time is approaching. We’re being sent to Penrose City. We’re being put on defensive duty.’

Victoria’s eyes widened in realization, before she let out a cry of excitement.

‘YYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS! Real world! Actual population! Magical Girls to fight! I’m getting pumped up…!’ Victoria looked happy as could be, bouncing on the spot. Seeing this, Tullia sighed a bit in relief, and texted back her affirmative. The “Bifrost Sculptor” and “Frostbite” would be accepting their new mission. Not that they had a choice, but still.

But, this worried her. Every other step of the two’s journey had been one planned by Asengav, who she knew was an expert at planning. He’d known they could win every other time. However, this time, it was the conclusion of his big plans and he was just sending in all the tools at hand, probably not even caring if he lost a couple. It would likely be their most dangerous mission yet.

She could but hope they were ready for it.

Helga was quietly whistling to herself in the locker room under the Golden Trove apartment complex, looking back at a mirror behind her as she finished tying the apron on her new maid uniform. Ever since the Justine incident, and the small funeral she held for Amber, the former shipmate had made a promise to herself; to live a fun life without regrets, just like Amber had. She thought about giving up on the magical life, and to go back to living as an outcast, but Boteg was there to comfort her with the promise of a nest. She was thrilled to get back to working again; she found a life of servitude something more fulfilling and meaningful than as a wanderer.

When she finished up dressing, she twirled around the mirror, and grinned.
"I wish Amber had got to see me like this...all pretty..." She spoke to herself, just a Su Fang walked in. She jumped, and turned around with a blush on her face. "I mean, I wish she saw how hard I still work, haha!" She excused herself, and laughed a bit. "Anyway, do you need something, Sue?"

Kimble mewled in discomfort when Alicia tried to detach the catgirl, and then made funny cat noises when Alicia shook her leg. "Nyaa! Mistresss!" But then, when Sally came over and scratched Kimble behind her ear, she dropped to the floor, landing on her arms and feet. She looked sad as she saw Alicia leave. "Nhyaah..."
Sally gave a giggle, and continued petting Kimble. "There, there...Alicia can't play with you all day. She must be on an important mission."
Kimble sighed, then turned towards the other. "My name's Kimble!" She greeted with the lift of a curled hand. "I'm a cat! Mistress saved me, so now I'm her pet!"

During the short ride to downtown, Lily was quiet, which was unusual for her; she was the kind of girl to talk a lot, especially when riding with Alex. She bit her lip as she made a jump off a ramp, having never shown concern over more dangerous stunts; and then, for the very first time...She stopped at a red light. She nervously reached for her pocket, where she held the ring he had given her.

"Hey Alex..." She began speaking, one foot on the ground, nervously tapping.
"Do you remember when we first met? It was right outside of Penrose, when I was on my way to Victoria's meeting." She chuckled.
"You were so dorky back then, with your misbehaving clones. It was embarrassing...But I'm glad I picked you up that day." The lights turned to green, and Lily took to full speed, dashing madly through traffic.
"Anyway, we're soon there! Get ready!"

With a great slide that tilted the motorcycle so close to the concrete that Lily could touch it with hr hand, she and Alex turned the corner to a a scene of magical girls fighting each other. Despite the chaos, however, the energetic bow-wielder immediately took aim at the vampire girl using what Lily could only describe as advanced darkness. Like a horse-archer, she circled around while firing off her lightning arrows, causing small flashes of electricity around her. Lily then realised she was about to crash into a building, and jumped off it, landing on a lamp post.
"Stop fighting, you two!" She shouted. "Now what the heck is going on here?"

@MadManMoon
Jonathan Joestar, is that you? Jokes aside, since we already have one character nicknamed "JoJo", I'll have to ask you to refer to the character by another nickname or simply her actual name to avoid confusion. The way the sheet is written is certainly unique and interesting with the SCP Foundation gimmick, but a bit intrusive, and referring to the Patrons by codes is difficult to read; for example, I get PRE24A and PRE24B mixed up, and that's annoying. Patron Types should be listed on Joanna's sheet as well. The descriptions for Limited and Rival Force could be cleaned for better clarification. The character is missing Ebon Mint's base Drawbacks (Debt and Betrayal). Also, like you've mentioned, it still needs the Fighting Style section filled. Will comment on her Ally once that sheet's done.

‘Oh, c’mon. It can’t possibly be THAT terrible!’

‘It’ll be terrible. Believe me. I shouldn’t be here.’

Two tiny girls were walking down the busy streets of Penrose. One was eight, the other twelve. The twelve year old was Josefin Hermansson, a girl with short dirty-blonde hair, colorful skirt, white shirt and a red backpack on her back. She was shining with excitement. The eight year old was Taihei Kumi, who was shorter, with shoulder-length blue hair tied into twin-tails, a white shirt with a blue skirt, and an expression like all hope had been drained out of the world.

‘You’ll do fine! You took over the whole place in your last mission, correct?’ Josefin encouraged.

‘Yeah. My enemies swarmed me at a bad time and I was almost killed. This time, the objective will be much more fragile,’ Taihei said, in a soft and unhopeful tone.

‘Ah, geesh! I’ll teach you to enjoy life yet! Hey, I’ll invite you to see my family next time we have time!’

‘No. You don’t want me anywhere near your family. Terrible things happen to those around me.’

Josefin frowned at her travelling companion. She was aware of Asengav’s influence could have negative consequences, but the effect on Taihei was the worst she had ever seen. If she could ever find a way out of this - Josefin winced at the pain in her head at that thought - she’d save Taihei first.

‘Anyways! We’ll start our journey of making you happy by arriving in time!’ Josefin claimed. However, at this time, Taihei had suddenly stopped, lifted a stone from her pocket to inspect. She stared at it for numerous seconds, before sighing, dropping the stone back into her pocket and then lifting her phone to type something. Josefin looked on with a confused expression.

‘... What are you writing?’

‘That the “Artificer” and the “Pilferer” will be arriving late.’

‘But, uh, we’re perfectly on time.’

‘Remember to act scared.’

‘… Huh?’

Then police sirens appeared heading rapidly in their direction. Josefin was turning to look with an alarmed expression while Taihei just stared blankly ahead. Suddenly the window right next to them cracked open, and two adult men exited the jewelry store with bags over their shoulders.

‘Police!’

‘Damn it, grab hostages! These two will do!’

‘Wah-!’ Josefin’s eyes widened as she was suddenly grabbed and had a gun pointed at her head, and the same with Taihei, who was just looking done with the situation. A van suddenly drove in front of them, door opening to show more crooks, the front pointed away from the direction they were walking.

‘SEE!? WE’VE GOT HOSTAGES!’ The crook holding the currently expressionless Taihei shouted at the police while the two girls were being thrown into the van.

‘Seriously!?’ Josefin exclaimed, looking around, suddenly realizing. ‘No, wait! You’re driving the wrong way!’ She started trying to flail.

‘Quiet down,’ Taihei urged, rolling with it. ‘We’ll find a proper opportunity.’

‘Shut it, you two! One more word and I’ll shoot you somewhere that hurts!’

‘Waaaa… I don’t believe this…’

And with that, the two agents of Asengav were kidnapped by common crooks and thrown into the back of a van and would be driving away from the police in the absolute opposite direction of where they were going. It would be several hours before they got an opportunity to transform and disable their kidnappers, so for now they had to bide their time.

Somewhere, watching the event through a camera, a mysterious girl with multiple cellphones at her desk, facepalmed in irritation.

---

Lily pouted at first, but then her eyes lighted up at the the mention of Bob.
"Aaahh! Fuzzy Bob!" She screamed, and turned to lean over the back of the couch to catch a glimpse of the fluffy bunny. Ever since Alex obtained the pet, she has fawned over and given it a lot of attention, perhaps even at the expense of Alex himself at some points.
"Who's a litle floof? Yes youu are!"
She squeed when the bunny waved his arm, and Lily waved back with a giggle. Then, she puffed her cheeks at Alex' reaction.
"Oh come on, Alex! That was obviously him saying 'Good morning'!" She said, imitating a deep voice, making rabbit ears out of her hands.

While Alex checked up on Bob, Lily turned back to look at the news; she looked concerned when it reported about a jewelry store robbery, followed by the disappearance of two girls who were last seen in the vicinity, concluding with an assumption that the robbers took the girls as hostages.
"A kidnapping! Alex, we have a crime on our hands!" She jumped up and pointed towards the balcony with bravado. She kept the pose for a while, and then looked back.
"Alex, this is when you ans-Whoah!"

Lily caught the tiny metallic object in her hands with a bit of a stumble, and looked at it in wonder.
"Ooh, shiny! Wat is it, some kind of-Kiyah!" She froze, her tongue unable to form words. Her body trembled, and a bright red covered her face.

Oh no, he's done it...AN ENGAGEMENT RING!

Lily looked at Alex, and tried to say something. Instead of words, a strange, high-pitched shriek came out.

We h-haven't even started dating yet, and already he's p-pro-propo-AHH! What should I answer? I don't want to hurt his feelings!

She took a deep breath, about to say something else when the reporter interrupted their regular broadcast with breaking news. Lily used that as an excuse, and turned to look at the TV.

"Reports live on the scene indicate mass hysteria developing on the scene. witnesses report seeing monsters on the scene, while experts claim the the phenomenon is caused by hallucinogenics released by terrorists..."

Lily then took off at a run, and opened the balcony windows.
"Th-There's monsters to defeat, and civilians to rescue! Let's go!" She held her hand out in a dramatic pose.

"Let my spirit gallop across the field of clouds, and strike my foes down with thunderous applause!"

She glowed yellow, and with a crackle of electricity, transformed. Unlike the sequence from before, this time it looked different, with an emphasis on the motorcycle's parts forming from electricity and joining together under her. By the end of it, she posed while sitting on the motorcycle, a little yellow scarf around her neck and waving in the breeze...Until Lily noticed it, and ripped it off. "I don't like scarves, Ixion! Stop trying to make me wear one! Anyway, hop on! We got some baddies to bash!"

Sally cocked her head to the side, and blinked.
"Huh? It's not?" She pondered, her rabbit-ear accessories now drooping down the side of her head. Kimble giggled, and clung to Alicia's leg like an attention-seeking pet. "It's cause Sally's so lucky, right?" Sylvia simply shook her head. "It's always the same with her." She gave a friendly little punch at Penny's shoulder, and smirked. "R&D still needs to wrangle out a few kinks with the flight module before you can use it. But hey, at least you got these new toys to play with. Be sure to write a report on their performance the next time you come back from field work, so we'll know how to improve them," she said with a big smile on her face. "Anyway, you guys can relax for now. I have some reports I need filed, and-"

At that moment, a Beckoner appeared to her, and whispered something in her ear. "Alright, let her in and guide her to the hangar. Might as well get her working right away," she spoke back, not trying to hide the conversation unlike the Patron, who frowned before disappearing in a tiny cloud of glitter. A few minutes later, Summer found her way through the entrance hall, and then a left turn to the hangar, where Sylvia waited for her with a hand on her hip. "Greetings, Summer North. We're glad to have you here. I'm Sylvia Starshine, and I run the place, kind of. You've already met with your Beckoner, right? If not, you can apply for one at the Human Resources office. It's upstairs from here, a left turn, a right, past the Hall of Divine Judgement, then another right, an at the end of the corridor next to the water cooler." Sally greeted Kyle with a wave. "Here, have a sandwich!"

A Beckoner then appeared, unusual in appearance compared to the others; it was a tiny winged brown bear with beady black eyes and a strange, constant smile on it's face. "Oh, not to worry. I have decided to become the chosen's guide, hmm~" the Beckoner spoke, in a stilted, breathy tone. Sylvia simply stared, but shook her head. "Geez. Well, that makes things easier." She gestured to behind her. "From now on, you'll be reporting to the 'Seraph', Alicia Hayden. She'll teach you how we operate. Anyway, I got some important business to take care of. Later." And with that Sylvia walked off, leaving the rest behind. Sally blinked. "Well, nice to meet you, ehe!"

Only one Ally can have an Ally or Twin Soul, and vice versa. That's where I draw the line.

@Izurich
Alright, Valerie's accepted; you can post her character sheet to the Characters tab. She might have usurped Penny's title for the tankiest girl in the RP with her VIT and powers.

@Izurich
Is MHW fun in single-player? Have been thinking of getting it to PS4.

Getting back on-topic, Valerie's a fun vampire girl with her debuffs. Her Immortality may be a bit too strong if she can revive herself endlessly in combat, so that should be slightly toned down. The Oddball also seems very dangerous, but her powers are balanced well against her Weaknesses, so that's fine. Also happy to see someone use the Corruption module.

The transformed appearance image seems to be broken. If you can fix that, it's accepted.

You can have it classified as Light if you're unsure.
