The Storm Cycle: Reclamation

Seems cool. Would a dhampir in style of Castlevania be an acceptable knight?

@Dark Cloud Consider this: widen your perspective. It is not the body that needs to be made perfect as clockwork, but the world. Every part of the world is a gear, striving toward perfection, but cannot see the greater whole. The Architect sees. He sees that even his entire universe is a gear in a greater machine, and he cannot perfect the design without knowing all of the components.

@Kassarock So more Musashi than Meti. Interested to see how she shakes out, but she should fit in fine.

@Villamvihar I think it would be fine if your character accidentally apotheosized themself through some celestial confluence or arcane mishap, and is unhappy about the turn of events. The only problem is having another agent responsible for it.

REACH HEAVEN THROUGH VIOLENCE

CS template is done, bit I'm working on the example character before it goes up.

@Villamvihar I think you understood the assignment, but the necessary "some asshole" to do the yanking presents issues, as no such person could exist.

@Randomness Not a fan of this idea for two distinct reasons: introduces the idea of other dimensions in a way unrelated to the character's ascension, and the character didn't earn this incredible power, just had it thrust upon them, unrelated to their own agency.

@DracoLunaris I think the idea works. I would possibly even push it a little further. She could easily be some sort of nascent avatar or messianic figure for goblinkind or even greenskins as a whole.

@Dark Cloud Could always wait for the CS, I plan to work on it later today.

REACH HEAVEN THROUGH VIOLENCE

@KillamriX88 Okay, that's more specific, and I can answer more specifically.

I pretty much tried to demarcate my standards for magic with the ranking of the Arts. Think of it like, if you are a dedicated Sorcerer, Red Arts are what I expect you to be capable of, White Arts are the limits of what you're capable of, and Black Arts are beyond what you're capable of.

@KillamriX88 I feel like I would rather definite a positive than a negative, and let you feel for a character from there.

Your Inheritor is basically someone at the end of one journey, and at the beginning of a new one. Their journey has surely changed them, perhaps not for the better. They've reached the end that their means have been striving toward, and this has pushed them into the next plane of existence. Here, despite all of their power, they will essentially be starting from the bottom again. The journey begins anew.

Think about where they come from, and what they had to do to become who they are. Think about why their will drives them beyond the limits of their world. Think about what they sacrificed to come this far.

Characters I want: doom-driven heroes, prophesied saviors, enlightened masters, tortured madmen, hot-blooded fighters, black-hearted schemers, silver-tongued liars, god-kings, demon lords, conquerors, revolutionaries. Your character stands where the World becomes the Fool again.

Hope this helps.

@Moonlit Ghost What's missing from your concept is an arc, basically. These are meant to be characters that achieved their status and power through a journey of some form or another. The story is meant to begin with them hitting the apex of their power, thrusting them into this new tier of existence. "Perfect slime from the beginning of time" isn't a compelling character to me, at least as far as what you've shown/told me so far.
