Yuri Sawatari

Yuri Sawatari

Appearance

Female | “Lisa” | 14

Appearance:

Yuri is an obviously young girl with a very innocent and childlike demeanor. She is short for her age, standing at a mere 4'11.5" and possesses a soft, verdant gaze to match her emerald hair color. She is almost always radiating a rather cheerful aura, causing her to be the type that often attracts others. Because of her love for fantasy novels, she often likes to dress in attire that might fit into such a world, not being afraid to even don a cape of some kind around her shoulders.

Background:

Yuri's life has been rather simple and straight-forward...with the exception of one incident when she was young. Yuri had a near-death experience when she was 4, when she was nearly run over by a car. Luckily, a nearby pedestrian managed to pull her away, causing her to only get barely nicked by the car, but still enough to render her unconscious. She was hospitalized for a few days and released with no noticeable, out of the ordinary symptoms. Ever since, her parents became more protective and even began to spoil her. They never did anything about her childish nature, preferring that she stay so innocent, so long as she remains good-natured. She doesn't even remember the accident to this day.

As she grew, she quickly began to grow attached to the idea of different worlds. She often envisioned herself in all kinds of worlds with different rules of reality. Playing pretend was always her favorite activity. As a result, she quickly found herself drawn to fantasy stories. Magic and monsters...the idea fascinated her to no end. So naturally, when she discovered a virtual reality game like "Digimon World," on a trip to the arcade by her mother, she jumped right into the seat to give it a try. She was hooked in immediately, growing extremely fond of her digital friend.

Personality:

If one word could summarize Yuri's personality, it would be "childlike." She almost seems to have not matured as she grew, due to her parent's pampering and desire to maintain her innocence. She is rather sheltered and innocent, greatly enjoying living in her own fantasy worlds. She exudes a great amount of cheer and she tends to brighten up the mood in a dark situation. This bright, optimistic attitude has resulted in her becoming rather popular, though she is sometimes considered a bit on the annoying side. She loves the attention of others and she enjoys trying to make friends with as many people as possible.

Veemon

Appearance

Male | "Vivi" | Free | Light

Personality:

Veemon is, first and foremost, extremely protective of his partner Yuri. Prior to meeting Yuri, he was a stoic, warrior type of Digimon who fought for the sake of honor and valor. However, one day, she saved his life from an attack, something he had never seen a human do for a Digimon before. That event touched his heart and he has since softened himself, smiling and enjoying himself far more than he used to. He befriended Yuri fully, and now often takes it upon himself to play the role of her babysitter as well as Digimon partner. This can be seen when he often entertains her fantasies, often playing with her unless they had somewhere to go or somewhere to be. He has devoted himself entirely to protecting her from all harm, and she is all that matters to him. Despite is caring nature for his partner, he always tries to scold her and stop with the nickname she gave him, claiming that it sounds "embarrassing." Naturally, this has gone more or less ignored by his partner.

Hideaki Saitou

Hideaki Saitou

Appearance

Male | “Hide” | 18

Appearance:

Picking Hideaki out of a crowd would be a very difficult process. Standing at 5'7" and keeping his jet-black hair neat and tidy, makes him look very much like your average high school student. He tries to keep himself as professional in appearance as possible, even so far as to have fallen into a habit of adjusting the tie he likes wearing whenever he's in the public eye. He maintains is professional appearance with his pure white collared shirt and black tie. He exudes confidence and radiates seriousness.

Background:

Hide was born in the United States, but raised in Japan. His parents were successful lawyers in the States and soon moved to Japan in order to become successful in another country's legal system as well when Hide was still a toddler. His father is a defense attorney and his mother a prosecutor. They both agree that they want Hideaki to also become a proficient attorney when he gets old enough, so they spared no expense to give him the greatest education they could. They home-schooled him, gave him the best private instructors that their money could buy.... When his high school-level days approached, he was practically buried by his books. Both those that he needed to study with and the ones he read in his personal time. However, his parents did often disagree on which side of the courtroom they wanted him to pursue. It was nothing major that they fought over, and the times they did fight about it, it was only in small bickers at a time. More often than not, it would become played off as a joke. But eventually, Hide decided that he needed to start getting some fresh air to clear his head and get some fresh thoughts flowing.

It is during times like these that he often found himself wandering the town by himself, exploring and eventually making his way through various schools around the city, driven by his curiosity about how other children received their education. He would also occasionally stop by the Arcade, testing out various games as a way to relieve stress from his studies. He never really made outside friends, though he would occasionally converse with some. But he was okay with this. He was content living the way he was. Loneliness never struck him so long as his parents continued to set time aside for him and play his favorite games with them...usually puzzle or strategy games like Chess. In fact, Chess quickly became his specialty. He played and studied the game so much that he was able to beat his father and any computer AI-controlled opponents in any program he ever installed on his personal computer on any difficulty level. He became a phenomenal tactician, learning how to read at least a couple of steps ahead. His parents harbored this talent of his and helped him grow it, as it would become very useful in courtroom arguments.

Hide continued to live peacefully in this manner, continuing his usual routine until he soon realized that his High School-level days were nearly behind him. It would not be long before he was sent off to a private college, where he would then transfer into a prestigious law school. He just hoped that he would be able to handle such a change in his lifestyle....

Personality:

Hide is a rather mild-mannered, polite young man. He was always raised to maintain professionalism as much as he possibly can, no matter what the circumstances. As such, he always tries to keep a level head, no matter how dire the situation might be. Of course, if things don't go as planned, he tends to start losing his cool and goes into a slightly panicked state. When he starts letting his panic get the better of him, he can often start making simple mistakes or jumping to conclusions while making judgments.

Friends or foes, intimidation or encouragement; he commonly tries to ignore all outside influences when it comes to making decisions. He always tries to follow his own opinion through as much as he can, to the point where he can be somewhat stubborn about it (partly due to his own pride in his own reasoning skills). But he is not completely opposed to other ideas as well. After all, his parents had always tried to teach him to be flexible; it comes in handy for various aspects of life. All of this also sometimes causes others to view him as somewhat apathetic or standoffish at times. Although in truth, he is merely trying to find the best solution to find the best possible outcome for the most people. Sometimes, though, he will show a compassionate side and take pity on somebody who has something particularly rough; especially friends.

His skills as a tactician often lead him to think before acting, and sometimes results in him being somewhat indecisive. Finding the correct path is often a difficult process for him, but once he sets his mind on it, he will be determined to see it through if it's within the realm of possibility

Agumon

Appearance

Male | Vaccine | Fire

Personality:

A very brave, if not stubborn, rash and hot-headed Digimon who spends many of his days looking for any Digimon he can do battle with and get stronger. Ever since he was hatched, he watched many powerful Digimon fighting, which always excited him. One day, however, he ended up getting caught in the middle of a particularly heated battle. But what happened then shocked him. An attack had come flying in his direction, off-target. He was sure to get destroyed by the blast...but the Digimon that had been the initial target took the hit for him, hindering his chances to win the battle. And yet, that Digimon did manage to win in the end. Ever since, he decided to follow that Pegasusmon's way of life. He pledged to one day be the strongest Digimon that ever existed...and he would use that power to protect those who couldn't protect themselves from dangerous or destructive Digimon. He will stand up for what he thinks is right, no matter what that might mean.

Hey guys! Just wanted to pop in and apologize for disappearing on you like that. I don't know if there's still room or not, but I'll stay away from this either way, as I've really done nothing but drag it down. I lost my computer for a while and then things got real in reality, so I had to take a break. The combination of things stopped me from giving you a proper notification when it happened and I just forgot to when I finally got my computer back.

So again, extremely sorry for the disappearance and I hope you guys have a great RP! =3

The Dragon and the Tiger (One Piece RP)

Heh. Yeah, he's fighting one of the Marine Commanders now, and he did call the Captain to come take a look after recognizing the ability that the Marines have very recently gotten the call to be on the look out for. The Captain is going to bring his second Commander with him, not wanting to take any chances on letting this target (and probably his ticket for a promotion to Commodore) get away. =3

The Dragon and the Tiger (One Piece RP)

"...Well, I suppose it was worth a try," Ryu replied simply as he watched the swordsman begin to dismiss himself already. But then he couldn't help but allow a small smile to appear on his face as well. "And if we do become enemies, I suppose it's a good thing I found out what you're capable of now rather than later." However, when the man asked him about the reason he had gotten involved, that forced him to raise an inquisitive brow. How did he know about that? The reason he had jumped into the battle in the first place was to prevent that gun from even being brought into the fight. It was drawn in the back and discreetly at that. And only for a brief moment before he interrupted. But he kept that information to himself for now. No need to let Mitsuki in on his suspicions if they might end up as enemies in the future.

Next came a warning from the man about the Marines. "...I'll try to keep that in mind," he replied simply. But now that he knew what was probably going on on this island he wasn't sure he could just sail away in good conscience. He didn't need to be told that the Marines weren't all that they were cracked up to be. No, he had seen first hand what those with power would do in the Marines to get what they wanted. He knew all too well. And he didn't want anything like that to ever happen to anybody else if he could help it. "Well, maybe I'll see you around," he murmured, continuing on his way toward the inside of the island.

Unfortunately for Ryu, his small hope of finishing his business on this island prior to meeting this abuse of power was destined to be shattered. It was less than an hour later when he suddenly came across a rather unfortunate scene. Upon witnessing a small crowd starting to gather around in the village square, his curiosity got the better of him. He approached the crowd and looked through them, eventually spotting exactly what was going on in there. An older man was on the ground while a man clearly in a Marine outfit was looking down at him. The Marine wielded an interesting sword, different in design from what the Marines usually brought with them with a blade longer than usual.

"This is a nifty sword you made, old man," the Marine replied, pointing the blade down at the older man. "The Marines heartily accept your donation to our cause."

"S-sir, I would be more than happy to give you a sword, b-but please, not that one. I-I'm holding that one for-"

"I don't care who it's being held for. You couldn't make your quota for us this year, so you don't exactly have a choice in the matter, do you?" the tall Marine inquired.

"B-but please, I-I'll make you another-!"

"Heh. As if we have time to just sit around and wait around for weeks on end. We're too busy chasing away wannabe pirates to protect your little village. I think this sword makes for a perfect symbol of gratitude, don't you?"

Meanwhile, the crowd around them was murmuring restlessly, clearly wanting to intervene somehow. But not one of them seemed to want to get in trouble with the Marines. There seemed to be no telling what would happen to them or their families!

"Of course," the Marine added. "If you've still got protests...I'd love to test the blade's usefulness out." He then pushed the blade closer to the old man. A moment later, however, the sword, and the man wielding it, would suddenly find themselves well away from the old man. Ryu had pushed his way through the crowd, jumped into he air and spun himself around to gain momentum. With that momentum, he had utilized his partial transformation ability to turn his foot into a dragon claw and slammed a kick as powerfully as he could into the Marine's chest, sending him flying and causing the crowd on the opposite side to disperse in order to avoid the Marine projectile.

The Marine grunted as he was slammed into a nearby wall, dropping to one knee, with the sword getting stabbed slightly into the ground to keep himself upright. He turned his gaze upright and glared at the man who had just interfered and wiped the blood off of the corner of his mouth. He rose back to his feet, not taking his gaze off of the now normal-looking man. "Boy...you just made the greatest mistake of your life." he muttered.

"You'll let this man go and leave the sword if you know what's good for you," Ryu demanded, deciding to try to bluff his way through this.

"Heh...a kid like you, trying to intimidate me? That makes for a pretty good laugh. Why would I be scared of you?"

"Tch..." Ryu muttered. His bluff had been called. And now, he supposed he didn't have much of a choice. He didn't want to keep a fight going, so he needed to scare this guy into backing down. Besides, would somebody this low in rank be privy to the information about his dragon fruit? He had his doubts. He raised an arm and then triggered his partial transformation again, turning his arm into a dragon claw, earning him exclamations of shock from the crowd behind him, including the old man. Even the Marine stared at him in shock, eyes wide. "Because I can tear you to shreds if I wanted to." he said simply.

After a few moments of stunned silence, all heads turned to look at the Marine officer, who was simply staring at the claw. But then, a slight smirk crept onto his face. "...I see," he murmured. He then reached into the pocket of the coat he was wearing and pulled out...a miniature Snail Phone? He raised it to his face and suddenly spoke into it. "...Seems like the Red Dragon has turned up. You might want to come to the square and see it for yourself, sir."

Ryu gave the man a look of confusion. He hadn't properly heard what the man had said into the phone, so he didn't realize what had just happened.

"Well," the Marine added, raising his sword and flourishing it with flicks of his wrist. "You want to play with a Marine Commander, eh son?" he asked. "Then let's see you try to 'rip me to shreds' as you so eloquently put it."

The Dragon and the Tiger (One Piece RP)

Change of plans. I'll have to finish the post tomorrow. But it will be done then~ =3

Yeah, on top of being a little bit on the busy side. But I'll definitely have it done soon. =3

One Piece: New Age

Satoru shook his head at first in response to Asus' question. After all, the bullets were much too small for him to use for his coating ability, and he had no intention of using a pistol to shoot anybody. But as he reached out with his arm and caught the pistol out of the air, he began to reconsider when he realized what other uses pistols could have. If he was using a pistol, he wouldn't have to reveal his ability to do non-combat related tasks. After all, pistols had quite a lot of punch to them. He might find a use for it somewhere.

"Not really sure what I'll use them for," he commented off-handedly to his fellow Devil's Fruit user. "But I may as well have them if I've got the gun." He quickly slipped the gun away behind his back and watched Asus expectantly for the bullets.

When Lenwood called for a retreat, his eyes widened slightly in surprise as he watched the captain run cleanly in the opposite direction. But then he let out a small sigh. This was the guy who was going to be his captain? Of course, he wasn't surprised when the guy came back through the trees...but he had probably just ruined what he was hoping to do. As soon as he'd gotten what he needed from Asus, he had planned to slip into the brush and flank the enemy marines and possibly immobilize the smaller one. After all, if either of them were going to go off on their own to get reinforcements, it would be that one. And that would completely isolate the captain so that he'd be rather easy to take down through teamwork.

But now that Lenwood had pulled his little stunt, he had caused the captain to instruct the smaller one to run away. On top of that, he might have even alerted them to the possibility of potential attacks from the brush.

Well, one thing at a time for now, he supposed. He had to roll with the dice that were cast. He continued waiting for Asus to pass him the bullets while he began thinking about what to do next. He had to rework his entire strategy again now.

One Piece: New Age

Btw friends, we're going to have a show-like series of 1-on-1's for the boss fights at the end of arcs. So y'all best be prepared to kick serious ass on your own.

@tex

Haha. yeah, I figured this would come up eventually. Satoru better get to finding some real coating material soon if he can~ xP

One Piece: New Age

Heheh. Cool~ Then I suppose it shouldn't be a problem. xD

My other idea was having him use Zypha's scythe blade, but I wasn't sure if the dull part of the blade was fat enough to allow him to press his whole palm against it or not. Secondly, he can't take the scythe with him, so he can't coat and remove the coat on demand. He'd have to work with the single coating. xD
