As much as I love imagination, it simply serves as a tool as it does as a curse. A double-edged sword, in other terms.

On the verge of being pulled back here, possibly.

Off for some while.

Bio

I think I need to redo this properly at some point. Pardon the empty bio for now. Have something else instead.

@VitaVitaAR
Happy with it now? :D
I actually went ahead and made it the 100-year per tail rule. Oh well. :)

Nothing else really changed otherwise, since it didn't seem to be needed.
(Or maybe I shoulda made the "three tail" fact more apparent, rather than sticking it next to the appearance part.. or is that actually more apparent? xD)
Fair enough mate. I only constructed that in a small amount of time but had helluva lot of fun doing so.
<Snipped quote by Ennui>

But she's not over 900! :P


Oh, you mean the 100 years per tail thing? I wouldn't mind really. Or do you want her to be older? Hehe.

And like I said, I can change a lot of things if need be. Plus you can just imagine less tails than what the image has if we go that route.
@Ennui Picture has too many tails. :P


Supposedly it's not actually the tail count that's high, but rather the shading and the way the artist drew that piece which makes it seem like there's more. It's supposed to only have around 7-9. (And I would assume 9.)

If you try to count the visible ends of tails, you actually get quite less than you'd think. I still get 8-9 when counting.
Well here's a very 'rough' draft. Can be subject to a ridiculous amount of change if need be. I did this in a span of an hour or two. A part of me already knows there might be tons of improvements to be made... but I tried. It's pretty much a barebones bio at this point. Also this character is intended to mainly serve as a "side character", so to speak. Or maybe even someone in the Police Department. Though that solely depends on Vita now. Who knows. Also I'm nothing like @Azereiah. I don't spew out novels like it's nothing, unfortunately. x'D

I think this has got to be the most lackluster attempt I've done in my life... dear god.



[Real Name]



[Fake Name]

• Age: 348 [22-29 Human Age, visual estimate]
• Gender: Female
• Race: Kitsune
• Appearance: [{X}] [Three-tailed]

• Personality:
Most would not even get close to Setsura before discerning her personality. As a fox spirit, she used to be very mischievous and could sometimes even be malicious albeit rarely. She mostly seeks to tease other people and have fun with the misfortune of others, but not to the extent of where it might hurt them more than needed.
As an old spirit these days, she has outgrown most of the mischievous habits of her youth. But every now and then she might prank someone or play tricks on them, just for the sake of doing so.
However she is still somewhat hard to read, nor is it any easier just to get to know her. She shrugs off most intrusive or prying questions away by somehow changing either the topic, or replying in a way that is very difficult to decipher/understand. She even uses a fake name to live around different places, rather than using her actual name. While she's not afraid of anyone actually knowing her given name, she'd rather keep it to herself if at all possible.


• Abilities:

Foxfire
- The main and single direct offensive ability that Setsura ever uses. She spends mana to spawn light blue balls of fire, either from the tip of her tails or her mouth, which she can then direct and move in whatever way she pleases. Sometimes she’s even managed to go so far as to cover all her tails in foxfire. Multiple tails covered in blue spirit fire is a lot more dangerous than you’d think when swung mercilessly at their enemy/opponent.
They also tend to burn and hurt a lot more than the average mana-spawned fire. But otherwise they don’t have any particularly deviating properties when compared to each other.


Illusionist
- If the situation calls for it, Setsura can focus all her mana to spawn a very realistic “illusion”. While this can be almost anything, depending on the amount of mana spent, she renders herself immobile and/or very vulnerable when using it. So it is normally best used while in cover or hidden out of plain sight. However, the illusion itself is very real, and so is its power. It should never be underestimated. This can range between a battle-oriented humanoid illusion, which can fight back, or maybe even a room-wide illusion, meant to confuse and disorient the opponent.


• Skills:

Fleet of Foot
- Versed in the act of maneuvering through multitudes of terrain and landscapes, Setsura can almost effortlessly travel through a multitude of landscapes. This doesn’t have as much of an efficient use in combat, but it helps in dire situations as well.

Deceiver
- A sly tongue and years upon years of living have made Setsura quite capable of hiding her true intentions from prying eyes and ears, whether they’re bad or good.

Ancient
- Agility and a quick tongue aren’t all she’s evolved over the years. Even her own magic power has grown large over the tremendous span of time. She is very capable of using said power for a variety of purposes, but tends to frequent a lot of certain ones.

• Equipment: While Setsura doesn’t carry any real equipment on her, she frequently prefers to wear either a kimono, a cheongsam, or otherwise fancy wear for upper class women. Much like the old times.

• Brief Backstory: A fox spirit born in the wilds, Setsura found herself into the human community some years after having wandered solely on instinct, not too soon after her inception. The memories of any kind of family of hers are far behind her, as she seems to either have trouble recalling any memories or is actively staying quiet about it. Now she simply wanders around the Imaginary District, a new place she’s begun to call home after wandering for so long.
@VitaVitaAR See the ridiculously long OOC post I have there? Yeah. I think you might've missed a question or two.
Since, well. I don't think one sentence answers three separate questions in one go.

Also sorry for being ambiguous :'D

@geminironin Then, I'll take you up on that offer, should I make up my mind AT SOME POINT. :'DD
@VitaVitaAR Now I have lost all track. I feel like you're replying to a post that isn't mine :'D
@VitaVitaAR I get a slight feeling I might've asked too much...
Before you make the effort of answering this, tell me if you just didn't understand something I asked, or missed a point. I made this at 4:42 AM, so it might be highly... messy.


Unfortunately due to the time I'm also reading this, I'm a bit less capable of connecting the dots probably but.. it's a bit of a handful to connect every piece of info you have to this. Irregardless, I did read everything that I could.

The only thing that's off, for the moment, is what your world is actually like right now. While the actual original post details are fine, the "bible" info splash just feels like I got hit by an artillery shell with the force of a ten ton truck.

In short; I feel a slight misunderstanding as to what the character would be inhabiting, which also includes the outside world of course. Or rather if you're not including the outside world much in this case perhaps.

Second dealio; Is the race literally just; "Do whatever you want?" As long as it "sounds" believable?

The third.. well. It's more of a problem than a thing I don't know of. It's the ability/skill part of the CS.
I'll just say it bluntly. I have not even the slightest idea of what one can or can't include in this aspect. It's either a hit or miss in my case. Or put in other words; Too weak or too much. (Whether or not that actually matters, I guess.)

P.S. Damn you @geminironin for making a kitsune. ;_;
P.S.S. The one I heard from about this, was of course your beloved Yui-san. @liferusher


I guess if I can be even more painfully ambiguous.. I'd say I'm trying to balance myself on a rope between two mountain edges, and whether or not I stand on top of it or fall determines if I can actually manage to make the effort of joining this or not.
Well, I've gotten a nudge to possibly appear here.
Stupid thing is I am somewhat clueless even after reading the detail of it...

Actually, I think I'll just read that bible thread of info you have.
