Dibs on making a Blade Wolf BuCue custom

We can only hope.
<Snipped quote by FerriteFox>

think Suku is referring to the 'in battle' part of the class, not the actual build.


Oh Rou will definitely be very confused and not used to only controlling a single Gunpla.
Rou quickly put his Brave Knight back into it's case carefully and headed to the room that he was told to. He sat down at an empty desk and lowered the bill of his cap, his shy personality taking over. Rou felt he had taken enough steps today to become a friendlier person, if anyone was interested in talking they'd have to come to him. He took out his rather elaborate set of tools and nervously picked at the underside of his fingernails with a file.
@Lunar Templarexactly. And i'm sure you got plenty of time to decide. I already have an idea of what Alex will build in this class. Plus part of the idea of the straight assembly class is to also improve pilot skills when piloting something that doesn't have enhancements. It would make pilots more on par depending on the suit they use.


@Pilot231funny thing you should mention that. I wonder how ball guy will handle the straight build? Sakuya perhaps might have some trouble all things considered but she did start off with a standard seravee so probably be ok. also yah my fist model I ever made was of the gundam mk2


Rou is perfectly adept at building normally. His idea with DAI-BALL-OH! was to change the meta of Gunpla battle and to entice people to be more creative with what they had. He'll probably be extremely grumpy about having to use a straight build though, since he's kind of an elitist.
I'm all about that Arcane damage in Bloodborne.

If only I could beat it.

I'm pretty sure Deathscythe has a beam scythe at some point.
Rou nodded as Sakuya explained her Gunpla to him. "Awesome! The Seravee is my favorite out of Tiera's Gundams, even though I'm more of an Allelujah person..." He said as he mimicked the side swiped hair of the bipolar pilot. "Today however, I'm using my custom Brave Knight..." He said as he pulled the gleaming Gunpla out of its case. "Maybe sometime during our stay we can reenact some scenes from the anime."
Name: Rou Gernot/Ball Guy
Age: 17
Gender: M

Appearance:
Normal: Rou wears a large black Kamen Rider baseball cap that shades his green eyes and makes his black shaggy hair fan out to shoulder length. He often forgets to shave. He wears a short sleeved button up shirt that is usually left open to show whatever Toku/Anime shirt he has chosen to wear for the day. His light blue jeans are a little stained and torn, but still decent.

Ball Guy: Rou's alter ego is modeled after his Toku heroes. Ball Guy's outfit consists of a stark white spandex suit and a plastic helmet that sports a red hexagon and a green opaque visor. On top of the helmet is a small pair of mini turret "antennas".

Nationality: American

Backstory: All his life Rou has loved Tokusatsu heroes and giant robots, especially combiners. He began collecting Super Sentai robots, gunpla and merchandise when he was 8 and his collection is still growing. He can quote Riders, sing theme songs, and name any mobile suit. However, his biggest problem is that he can rarely discuss his hobbies due to his timidness. This was onset by his first gunpla battle at the local hobby shop. Rou built a simple GM to test the waters of the new game. He was stomped and ridiculed for his inexperience, and quickly left the shop and never returned. He longed for companions to help him. Better yet, a team. Despite his trepidation, he attempted to find friends at a different hobby shop. He laid low, but no one really stood out to him. Rou began to only fight matches in private, fearing what the audience would say about his skills.

Struggling to overcome his fear of confrontation and people, Rou discovered that he wasn't too timid if the opponent didn't know who he was. He began planning a cosplay suit to hide his identity, but could not seem to fathom what mobile suit to base it from. Rou surveyed his shelf. He wanted something simple. Zaku? Nah, cliche. BCUE? Too animalistic. His eyes finally rested on something he constantly over looked. The quaint little cannon fodder known as the Ball. It was perfect. Rou's skills were good enough that he could hold his own with such a puny gunpla, ad it fit his hero theme quite nicely. He finished his suit in a week and went to the shop. People stared, but no one knew who he actually was, and it made Rou feel so much more comfortable. "Ball Guy" was what they called him. He didn't win many matches, but he was well known and rather liked, even if he was just acting like a "gaudy super hero". Rou decided that a simple upgrade would not suffice. He needed something extra. Then it dawned on his. What about...extra balls? IF that was the case then he would need a Flash system, and that's something that an ordinary Ball wouldn't be able to handle. Rou brainstormed. Balls were what made him so renowned in his town, he couldn't just stop using one. He crafted for weeks and weeks until he found a solution. The transforming ball! he could still use the Flash system as a Gundam, but still look like a ball. Weeks later, his prototype was complete. In a private match he quickly lost ground, but once he transformed his Ball, his opponent dropped like a rock. Now he just needed to know how to use his backup Balls. Constantly controlling them would be tedious and require immense effort. As he wracked his brain, the Super Sentai show running in the back ground showed a scene of them calling their mecha together. It was miraculous, and it fit Rou's personality perfectly. He was going to make a Ball Sentai. He began winning his local matches, preferring to keep his Ball Squad's ability a secret. It was for only those eyes he thought deserving. Learning of his fame, he was invited to Neilsen Labs to participate, signing up under the guise "Ball Guy", to keep his identity a secret for just a little longer. The suit had become a crutch, but its ability to keep him calm in social situations was invaluable.

Other information: Rou changes into costume before every match, or constantly wears it if expecting challenges.

Main Gunpla: Round Sentai: Ball Squad!/DAI-BALL-OH!


Scale: 1/144

Based from: Balls

Equipment and Weapons: Fireworks hidden in the tubes of each Ball arm. (Gotta be flashy right?). When combined into a single unit, all attributes are increased due to combined power output and source.

Brigadier Ball (Red Stripe): The Ball Rou Controls and uses to command his squad. It is capable of transforming into a Gundam-esque mobile suit to combine with the rest of the balls to form DAI-BALL-OH!. Chest can fire an extremely powerful beam when connected to the other Balls as power sources.

Blade Ball (Blue Stripe): Right arm of DAI-BALL-OH!. Equipped with four beam beam sabers to be wielded. Unfoldable hand.

Blaster Ball (Green Stripe): Left arm of DAI-BALL-OH!. Equipped with twin beam rifles. A hand folds out from underneath when attached.

Bomb Ball (Yellow Stripe) Legs of DAI-BALL-OH!. Equipped with four tri missile pods, two on each side. Added support on bottom to be used as feet.

Booster Ball (Pink Stripe): Unfolds to become the backpack and cape for DAI-BALL-OH!, very fast but otherwise useless in combat.

Other Gunpla:

Name: Brave Knight
Based From: GNX- Brave
Appearance: Silvery gray. Same basic format, but with some more regal additions like a thin cape and a knights visor on the face that hides the green mono eye and a green feather plume. The upper arms and legs have been beefed up. The Astray Tactical Arms serve as the backpack and as a weapon.

Armaments:
GN Lance (Thinner and longer)
Beam Rapier
Tactical Arms (Arm blades (3 pairs) and Bow mode)
Wrist vulcans
Feet daggers (Al-la Blue Frame)
Beam Shield
Royal Mode (Half strength Trans Am but double the duration)
Flight mode
If not foe the stark differences between them I'd have already made a Banshee/Buster/Harute kitbash.
Rou grabbed his backpack and hastily threw in his Ball Guy outfit before Alex could see. He packed in his Brave in one case and his Balls in another. All his tools were in order as he shouldered his bag. Rou left the room and headed for the breakfast hall. He wasn't going to eat anything. If not for the academy schedule he wouldn't even be awake until it was time for a late lunch. Day Two of his quest to become a more social butterfly dawned on him, and he scanned the room for anyone he could make an acquaintance to. Immediately his eye for the strange spotted him a girl sporting a style very similar to Tiera from Gundam 00. Go big or go home. Rou sat down in front of her, setting his bag next to his foot. He exhaled and prepared himself by clearing his throat. "Um. Hi. I don't think I saw you at the opening ceremony or in the battle room yesterday." Rou paused, catching himself and nervously adjusting his hat. "I'm Rou...by the way. Is that your Gunpla?" He said motioning towards the case.
