Still here. Just trying to figure out what do to.

Chasers: Boundary of the Crimson Sky (Full for the time being)

Tamashi puffed her cheeks. Another hard shell to crack, to be sure. She wasn't inclined to simply let Geoff turn her away; she'd get in on the SSS mission if it meant fighting him there and then! Or so she dreamed... The youkai was nowhere near the level of most Chasers in terms of combat, and while her ethereal fox-friend could aid her in that regard, he too ultimately would be unlikely to best anyone. A buzzing in her pocket drew her attention away from the brooding Chaser. Reaching into her short's pocket and retrieving her phone, she was elated to see a text message displayed on the home screen.

'This is Jin. Need healing. On way to Dengeki,' it said. Stuffing the phone back in her pocket she looked up to Geoff and grinned. "Oh well then. Your loss! If you need me though..." she fished out a business card with her number on it," Feel free to seek me out. I'm sure you will, sooner or later." She gave a salute before jogging out of the pawn shop. The severity of Jin's injuries didn't seem to drastic given the simplicity of his text message, but just in case, Tamashi always hurried along. She was surprised far too often with Chaser's ability to remain calm despite being near-death.

Down the street, Tamashi caught sight of her Chaser-in-need. Jin, along with another individual she did not know, were walking together towards her. She ran up to them before surveying their wounds. At her level of skill, it didn't require much to simply heal someone regardless of what their injury was, but she always had to make sure she only applied as much energy as was needed. Over-healing rarely resulted in something pretty. Figuring the gashes and cuts on them were the majority of it all, she snapped her fingers and a flash of white light enveloped both of the Chasers briefly. In an instant, their wounds had vanished and their bodies rejuvenated. The sense of tiredness lingered vaguely, however.

She rested her hand on her hips and spoke up, "Simple enough. What happened to get you two beaten up so hard?" Jin thanked her for her 'troubles' before handing a reasonable sum of cash. With how alive they were without her, she didn't even initially expect a reward, though holding the cold hard cash in her hands nevertheless brightened her eyes.

"No trouble at all my friend."

Oh, Kits, do you know how to deal with those things? I'm a total n00b with wikis, this is my very first time ever trying my hands at one.

@KoL

I'm fairly familiar with wiki editing as well. I made my own rp wiki awhile back. When I get some time I'll help with the Crimson wiki.

But a single three-letter notification had drawn Tamashi to the Pawn Shop long before the others had arrived. Glorious as the implications of completing an SSS mission were, she had no intention of actually taking the job herself, much less being the first to do so. Rather, she had become fond years prior of awaiting some brave Chaser to take it themselves before offering her services as a 'survival guarantee'. Not everyone was cautious enough to seek her healing prowess amidst a dangerous mission, but many eventually came crawling back... literally.

Tamashi sat herself in an inconspicuous spot of the Pawn Shop, eyeing those that came and went through the place seeking Chaser missions. Until some juicy conversation cropped up, she would remain there, silent and unobtrusive. Either no one would take the SSS job, or she'd simply carry on with her backup money-maker; roaming the Crimson Sky for the wounded and near-dead.

"Perhaps selecting the Rank A would be more profitable," said a deep voice, telepathically, to Tamashi. Unseen by the rest of the shop's occupants, a rather large and formidable fox-like monster lay down just beside the healer. It's head was rested on its paws, eyes but a thin black line as they were shut. "A measly sum of 50,000 coin compared to 1,000,000 is not worth your time, Tamashi."

"I could easily take the A Rank on my own. The SSS is on my eye for its unseen gains. The danger involved... imagine how many might truly perish without me? I shudder to think, like usual, how many souls I could render indebted to myself. There's a steady flow of money involved there that we may not see on the bounty board," Tamashi replied.

"Suit yourself," the fox mumbled. Tamashi's ears perked up.

"So, you're taking the SSS too? I like the cut of your jib, I'm picking it up too. What's your name?" Tamashi heard someone say, just beside the bounty board. This was her chance. Standing up, she proudly strutted towards Geoff and Hoshiko.

"The most difficult bounty available, hm? Very brave of you to go at it with but two individuals. I don't suppose you had any intention of seeking a third... or more, did you?" Tamashi greeted with a curt bow.

Yoyo.

@Asuras Your CS is almost perfect, I got just a couple things for you to revise and they are centered around her ressurection ability. First, she can't bring back those who were obliterated. Not even the gods can, and so does she. Second, place a time limiter as to how long a target can be dead before she ressurect them. Nothing longer than one day, though, since I don't want people to feel like death is cheap, even when I don't want to kill any PCs, NPCs most surely will die.

I do know that her power has a limitation in the need for a previous contract, but that is really the only reason I'm allowing you to have this ability, because bringing the dead back is not something I personally like. Though, you character is so good that I'm opening this exception in consideration to your effort. I trully hope that you won't abuse that power.

@KoL

I was already well aware the "total obliteration" cannot be circumvented. What I meant by obliteration was that, so long as their soul remained, Tamashi could revive them (if they had a pact).
As for the time limit; Tamashi has to be nearby the dead individual within seconds of them dying to resurrect them. If they have a pact, however, she can revive them any time, as her familiars essentially guard their soul until she can have access to it.

My CS is ready for reviewing! I saw no one did anything support-like, so I thought, "This RP needs a healer, and a damn good one!"

Tamashi 騙死

Death has yet to grace my presence.

---

Age: 24
Gender: Female
Race: Yokai
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 126 lbs
Blood Type: A
Birthday: June 23rd
Alignment: Neutral Good
Affiliation TBD
Aliases/Titles: Death's Nemesis, Mercy Incarnate, Patron of Soldiers

Personality:
Tamashi is haughty; exceptionally so. She is well aware of her exceptional abilities as a healer, and wouldn't ever miss a chance to cement this fact in other's minds. She doesn't speak much of herself, but rather tries to maintain her capable appearance through action. Tamashi is outwardly polite and graceful, known for her respectful demeanor and fine tastes.

With her unmatched abilities comes an aloofness that few can circumvent. Tamashi enjoys living life with little worry, often appearing fearless to all dangers. Indeed, Tamashi is difficult to scare, facing horrors with an unchanging, pleasant expression, to the point of almost seeming ignorant and innocent to any true danger before her.

Having no energy bounds, Tamashi also presents herself as generous and plentiful. It is rare that she forgoes helping someone in need where her powers are concerned, though it is difficult to know if her eagerness to aid them is born of a desire to impress or out of true sympathy. She is, of course, not above forgoing leaving a dead enemy dead.

Background:
Born to a spiritual yokai family in the heart of Japan, a young Tamashi startled her parents initially with a vast reservoir of magic energy, though her ability to properly use spells at the time was negligible. She grew up clinging to the idea that with such energy, she could potentially cheat death countless times. Being an adored priestess, honored by untold droves of people excited her, and so she drove herself to develop her skills as a healer until the very idea of someone dying shamed her. How could such a thing happen in her presence?

Within the Crimson Sky, Tamashi made a name for herself as the emergency medical responder for those willing to pay her some cash from time to time. The sheer number of injuries she's healed for Chasers has amassed Tamashi a considerable sum of wealth, which she spends quite readily.

Powers:
[Endless Mana] - Passive
Tamashi is known for her divine stores of magical energy, seemingly inexhaustible no matter how drastic the spell she casts. She simply does not tire from spellcasting, nor do her spells degrade in potency.

[Pact of Eternal Servitude] - Active
At the target's discretion, Tamashi can essentially "secure" their very soul and mark it for safe keeping. This allows Tamashi to resurrect any person whose soul she has at will, returning them to life even after obliteration of their physical form at her side. While the prospect of forging such a pact doesn't seem outwardly bad, it does mean that Tamashi has absolute jurisdiction over the individual's life, able to kill them in an instant just as easily as she could heal them.

The actual modem of such an expansive network of healing stems from Tamashi's ability to summon a familiar for every pact made. These familiars, appearing as large foxes bearing weapons, serve as wards against death for individuals who have made a pact with Tamashi. Upon "death", the familiars retrieve the fallen person's soul and return to Tamashi for her to revive them fully. The foxes bear weapons to "fight off Death" as they run back to their priestess... or so the legend goes.

Normally invisible to everyone but the served individual, they can make a short appearance to aid them in battle before returning to the ethereal plane to recover their energy.

This pact differs from her normal ability to resurrect the dead in that those without the pact are left vulnerable when away from her presence. Anyone with the pact may live, no matter where they die in relation to Tamashi. As long as she retains a pact with at least one person, Tamashi herself also receives a guardian familiar, whose strength corresponds to the number of pacts she currently has.

[Thaumaturge of Worlds] - Active
It is well-known that Tamashi can heal and individual from mere scraps of flesh to normal in but seconds, but her true exceptional skills lie in the sheer vastness of her arcane spells, able to heal the wounds of entire groups of people with a wave of her hand. The healing extends not only to living things, but to the soul of inanimate things as well. "Injuries" to buildings, armor, weapons, and the very ground, among other things, can be mended through Tamashi's grace.

Equipment:
Tamashi carries a priest's staff with her, solely for casting magicks.

If a spot opens, I'd love to get in on this! :L

Yes, this forum needs a good fixing.I could have backed the URL to the forum's portal and refreshed it there. But sometimes I don't know if that goes through, and some days I'd rather be sure. Or I'm just too annoyed to do that.

If you get to a white page, chances are it went through. I've never posted something, questioned whether it went through, and ended up not seeing it after first submission; hence why I never actually end up multi-posting anything even with the site errors. Really people need to just not resubmit or click refresh on the white-error submission page.

Pretty much this.You can have two nations nearby. But in my opinion it's basically a sin for there to be no consistency. In my opinion, a Japanese-like nation spawning from the same region as an Arab, Mesoamerican, or European state is very off.

Which brings up something I'd like to mention; Waether is a dichotomy of Western European and Japanese motifs, with the former Asanko region being a Japanese-like location. This means that either by precedence of submission or for the sake of consistency the area to the Northeast of modern-Waether is the origin of our setting's "Japanese-expy's". I question all of you whether or not this is okay, if you wish for this to be changed or removed altogether. I don't know if anyone else had planned on utilizing Japanese motifs.
