Other stuff:

*I have been writing stuff for 7+ years.

There is no reserving. If two people submit for sight, and we love both of them, we will just open up the next round of people.
Don't feel rushed or pressured, just submit your cs independent of other people's.

Len Yafuk



(Art is 100% property of Mohzart on deviantart)

Appearance: Len is a tall man, standing at 6'2", and is broad-shouldered and well-tempered. He has a steely, even gaze, and a permanantly furrowed brow- likely the side-effect of constantly trying to remember something. His arms are very burly, as are his legs. Overall, he's built like a tank, and looks like he's taken plenty of blows, but put out even more. His even blue eyes, slightly bent nose, medium-length black hairs, and his bushy black beard are the most prominent features on his otherwise forgettable face. On his skin though, normally covered by many layers of loose clothing and likely more than one jacket, masses of pale, long scars trace across his body. Perhaps he's hiding something, maybe he isn't. It's not likely he'd remember anyway.

Age: 27

Sensation: Instinct

Warbrand: “The Pinch”; Once Len wills it to, the warbrand becomes rippling sheets of metal that fold into two very large multipurpose pincers that can withstand an unimaginable beating. On top of that, the warbrand possesses the uncanny ability to take on the properties of naturally occurring matter and organisms. The pincers also have a basic form of shapeshifting built in, allowing them to alter their length, density, sharpness, etc. to an extent. The weapon is simple, but truly versatile and strong in the hands of an experienced fighter.

Saving Grace: Back when Len was a child, he dreamed of becoming the king of a country he dubbed “Utopia” - the perfect place to live. As he grew up, his childish dreams became fantasies, and his fantasies evaporated into distant memories. This old hope is represented as a crude, tattered flag of a non-existent country on the left side of his chest. Thought faded and ruined, the flag still pulses dully with its old colors.

Personality: Sorry, you will see it in the roleplay! ;o

History: Six years ago, to the day, Len started losing memories. Like pennies down a well, they just disappeared. First, the insignificant memories, things he'd never need to remember or look back on fondly. His life slowly slipped away, without him even noticing. He eventually realized what was happening, but never thought it would go to the extent it did. He thought it was normal to not remember what happened on his 18th birthday, to not remember his grandfather's name, to not be able to think up the face of his mother. After all, there was plenty on his mind he had to remember, anyway. Soon, though, even important memories started draining away. His birthday, his parent’s names, where he grew up, the passcode to his phone.

But there was a way to restore the memories: action and conflict would bring in a torrent of the things. These episodes of recollection are a drug for Len. Whenever he gets in a fight, when his adrenaline is pumping, his muscles flaring, a huge portion of his memories come back, flooding his brain with euphoria and a lust for lost information. As soon as the fight is over, they slowly fade away again, like the tide on a beach.

When his warbrand appeared, he fully accepted the path of war, knowing exactly what it would mean. It would be a cure. Maybe, constant battle, constant assault, anything.. maybe it could stop the mental hemorrhaging. He embraced his fate, and he knew there was no running from it. There was no mistaking the fact he could feel battle in his bones, calling him, waiting for his passion and fury. He could feel it. He knew, without feeling, without learning, how to fight for his life. Len knew the only thing he could do was embrace his instincts and surrender himself to the path of War.

Strangely enough, this has actually been asked quite frequently in the past. Sensations are briefly (and inadequately) touched on in the character sheets section.

The sensation your character represents is less of a "Seven Deadly Sins" vibe and more of a "this is what first inspired me to fight" vibe. It's something that your character feels deep within themselves, a part of who they are and a part of their history, something they call back on and remember when they feel the urge to fight.

Sorry, that too was confusing and inadequate.

Let me say it this way:

Your character, when he/she was young, tasted their own blood when their guts were spilled by some bad robber dude.
Strangely enough, they remember this.

They live the rest of their life up until warbrand. This sensation is ingrained as a part of them. (It's not necessarily a trauma thing, but it's the easiest to be interesting/establish/explain). They think about it. They dwell on it.

When War calls upon them to take up their warbrand, they accept, very likely fully knowing what these Warriors have been doing in the city. The sensation becomes a part of their reason to fight, or a part of their internal conflict, or a part of who they are as a person post-"War". It is up to you how this sensation manifests in your character, but I would highly recommend reflecting it in at least one, or maybe more, ways.

Anyway, hope that helped~!
If you need more examples, I can analyze my own character and spot out where I reflect him having Instinct.

Hey guys! Thanks for supporting this roleplay. Anyway, because I love you guys, here's a link to the out of character chat:

roleplayerguild.com/topics/166940-war…

The character sign up information is also there, under the "Characters" tab. Please fill out the cs with the information provided and go ahead and post it in the character sign up thread.There is additional information from the GM in the OOC you need to read before filling out the character sheet.

edit: If you have other questions, I have answered (currently one) of those in the OOC.
tl;dr check the ooc for fun answers, ask if unsure

Anyway, when you are accepted or denied, we'll tell you publicly.

If you write an exceptionally overpowered character, I will get together with the GM and write an essay analyzing the character and berating you for writing the character (we've done it before in past rp's). Personally, I think that's hilarious. However, it's only actually happened twice in several years.

Sorry for the mean tone ;~;

Have fun! <3

I'm still interested! Glad you moved this into casual ;o.
I'm definitely interested!

Mark me down for a spot, if you would, good sir!
What a well constructed opening piece!
I hope to see more from this maestro.

Welcome to the guild!
@Irredeemable
Hah, you wish I was that small!
You know it, bub. I have an entire two subscribers on my dank youtube channel, kitted out with the dankest of crab edits.

Honestly, I can only wonder why I'm not rolling in the youtube revenue with classics such as "VERY fast crabe scubbdling at increbdidly hihg speeds" and... that's it.

Still, I should have 14 billion subs, minimum.

Watch out!

Hey guys, Scarce Crabs here, and it's nice to meet you!

I'm very excited to re-join the guild, I've been here for a very long time (a hecking long time indeed), and I'm really interested in getting down to do some writing with you all!

Anyway, I hope you have a great day!
PM me if you want to say something spooky or plot a communist revolution, you know, the usual.
Meme master in training?

What belt are you?

Also, welcome to the guild!
