  • Name: Negi Springfield
  • Gender: Male
  • Personality: Negi is cheerful and a bit of a pushover on the surface, usually going on with the flow of shenanigans with the minimum of token resistance. An English gentleman of the highest degree, he is constantly polite and mild to any he meets. At least until people push certain buttons. However, deep within his psyche lies a darker side that constantly berates himself for anything less than perfect as well as a rather strong sense of camaraderie that often times segue into overprotectiveness that is also surprisingly overly violent. For a young boy his age, Negi is rather pessimistic and has rather low self-esteem despite his many accomplishments, something that regularly gets him into trouble.
  • Abilities: Negi Springfield boasts a strong mastery of both the Wind and Lightning schools of magic along with an above average Mana resevoir that makes him a powerful mage in his own right, capable of having natural disasters in the shape of localized storms attack people with gale force winds, small tornadoes, forks of lightning, and elemental arrows along with defensive barriers and bodily reinforcement for himself. Along with these natural gifts due to bloodline, Negi is a certified child genius- having graduated from a magical university when 9 and becoming an English teacher at a Japanese campus with full teaching certificates at age ten. Well educated, erudite, and keen of mind, his way of thinking is on a higher level than the majority of most people and as such he can instantly comprehend difficult subjects or develop ingenious magical theories much faster than regular people as well as having a learning curve that is almost inhuman such as the time he crammed the basics of Chinese kung fu into himself in a scant few weeks.

    Finally, Negi holds in reserve a forbidden spell called Magia Erebea, which is a magic that allows him to absorb and temporarily fuse with enemy offensive magic to empower himself. The side effect is that it feeds off the soul and darkness of the user, which often times helps amp up his darker urges. And it made him quasi-immortal and too at one point. He uses the lightning variant of Magia Erebea the most and the one he is most attuned to, turning himself into something akin to a "spirit" to make himself literally strike as fast as lightning, though other elements can be used as well such as darkness for additional toughness or fire for sheer offensive ability.
  • Equipment: Negi carries around his iconic wooden staff that he uses to fly about on and cast spells, though nowadays he has a ring which he uses as a focusing agent. Also on him are his Pactio card holder, one perverted fairy ermine, a cool looking cloak, his battle clothes, multiple pairs of glasses, a bottle of magical pills that can temporarily age him ten years older, and a cloaking spell that disguises his telltale glowing Magia Erebea tattoos.
  • Brief Backstory: A bright young man with a rather dark past that had been nominated to become an English teacher at an all girl private campus. After various amounts of wacky hijinks, young Negi embarked on a quest to find out abou his origins while having merciless fights with various super powered anomalies along the way while causing his students to fall in love with him. As of the current point in time, he's set into motion a plan that would save a special grafted on alternate reality of Mars from complete obliteration by calling for a construction of a magitech space elevator.

Some people had stuff to do over Halloween, me included, eheh. Costume party and all for my end.

Sorry for the extra delay but I'll get my post up tomorrow.
Yeah, we're just regrouping there for now. I'll post stuff tomorrow and then we'll be off saving princesses. Maybe. :V
I think two. XD
@Shoryu Not much. Bug wave has stopped and people are going on to prepare to check out neighboring areas for Mahora and are getting called by gang bosses in Roanapur for job commissions.

And yeah, I'm alright with the Stand gaining as long as it's gained over time and it makes sense. That's my stance on most non-canonical upgrades for other people as well. And people that don't want upgrades don't need to get them too as well.
Thank you very much for being a good sport about this, Lucian. In the future if you want clarification for certain things that you want, just give me a PM about stuff and we'll work it out, okay?
I'm okay with a collab post myself so long as it's not too padded out, the players are in character, and it doesn't exclude people from interacting with a GM post by having too much time go by. And also once in a while since other people would feel left out if it's constant and I think it's easier on the flow of narrative if people didn't constantly have to bounce around perspectives in a single post. Generally I'd prefer it if the scenes were isolated to the two characters in question if it's going on since it'd be awkward to get in on it with anyone else around. My sub-GMs can tell their own opinions on this if I've missed anything.

Also um, yeah. Omniscience is a thing that I'm not okay with. If you want to interact with someone, then just having focusing on one area is better than knowing everything going on at once. Also once again saying that if you haven't put a really significantly powerful skill/ability/item in the character sheet and you use it in the game, that's grounds for me to take out the nerf bat.
@Invisible ManHere's what to expect from Chris, man.

@Trevor1001 No need to apologize. As always, real life will always come first so don't be feel guilty if you haven't posted all that much. As long as you pop in the OOC every now and then to say you're still interested, I'm okay with that.
It's fine since I know where Forneus came from. In the future though, I would really like people to list all abilities that their characters can use from the get-go, to save time, okay?

Also off the top of my head, potential future challenges that will certainly be happening would be Space Opera Day and Superhero Day. The former would be C4 but in SPAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCE and aliens and chrome. The latter will empower people temporarily with great powers and stuff as well multiply the numbers of magical girls, tokusatsu, sentai, and Western superheroes in their capes and outer undies up the wazoo along with all their adversarial villains brought into the mix as well as random inhabitants being given powers.
Mahora Campus- Ranma's Bento Tree




Ranma gaped for a moment as everyone that was combat capable ripped into the bugs with gusto ranging from the empowered martial arts that he was used to before ranging between what looked like power armor powered by singing, guns, spears of energy, and various other special abilities that he could hear erupting in the other parts of the campus. By the time he was urged int combat, quite a few of the invading insects seemed to have been dead already by his rather capable combatants. It did feel rather nice to see that the people here were good at fighting and thus the pigtailed boy was filled with a brief sense of showsmanship, especially after Jax's urging and Hibiki's aerial combat.

"Hehe, right. Might as well help sweep up then." Smirking, the boy hopped off the ground with the ease of someone who was used to going against gravity before his body blurred into motion. One leg snapped towards a giant locust, aimed in a way that let his smash its head askew by attacking the more vulnerable neck joint. The momentum was used to spin himself away like a dervish into the next enemy where he reached out and tore off the wings as he passed by, much more willing to pull this maneuver after he faced a certain phoenix king back home. The flightless thing fell down, hastened by a stomp kick that smashed it into the pavement that killed the thing while allowing the teen to somersault gaudily over a giant hornet, leading it to embed its stinger into flying centipede which then wrapped around its attacker and bit at it, the two falling down in mutually assured destruction through poison. "Why are you hurting yourself?" He couldn't help quipping to the suckers even though he knew that the things weren't intelligent enough to understand him, his habits too deeply ingrained to really not use.

It was during his pinballing through the swarm that Ranma just happened to have a view of a neighboring area, which looked more like medieval fantasy land with castles and knights on horseback racing across grassy plains to combat the giant pests alongside footsoldiers and catapults, the sound of steel on carapace ringing in the distance. Frowning thoughtfully as he descended back down to earth before clutching a beetle's leg with his ankles and pulling off what Damian Wayne did even as his ride wove through the air uneasily due to the extra weight that it couldn't get at, the upside down martial artist decided to bellow out his thoughts to everyone else since the battle seemed to be winding down.

"Hey, after we finish up here, we should see if we can help out the neighbors. Chao's place seems to be rather safe and we might be able to save people that aren't quite as well off as us." Done with voicing his thoughts, Ranma then used his ridiculous trained body's core strength and center of gravity to backflip and fling something that weighed a lot more than him to eat the pavement before jumping atop the thing to jam a sharpened piece of candy cane he picked up during the confusion into its eye to end it while it was stunned. Looking about, he nodded as he saw the battle winding down as only a handful of things were buzzing about that could easily be cleared by the people here. That was good since it meant everyone here was uninjured and that they could go help out potential victims that much faster. A martial artist had a duty to help those that needed it after all, and for all his bravado and willingness to be underhanded sometimes, the boy had a clear sense of morality.




Seedy Cesspit of Crime and Human Filth, Roanapur




Over in Roanapur, things also seemed to be winding down. Despite the place having a lot more giant arthropods to contend with than over in Mahora, it also had a much bigger population, the majority of which knew how to use brands of firearms that would be illegal even in the state of Texas. Shells, slugs, rockets, napalm, and various other deadly pieces of projectiles thinned the swarm while the more super empowered newcomers took care of the rest. That wasn't to say it was an easy victory though, considering how much blood had been spilled, mostly those who didn't have access to the more heavy weapons or those who didn't belong into the bigger gangs.

As it was, the den was now bubbling with bloodlust and excitement, the place painted brown and red with the life fluids of both humans and insects. Soon though, an announcement was made throughout the seedy place. Those that were capable would be hired for certain jobs by certain organizations, namely exploration and extermination. Assets had to be protected and if possible, alliances be made with these freaks that seemed to have popped out from comic books and the tellies. Those that had stood out would soon find (heavily armed) messengers from various crime syndicates seeking them out, asking to meet the gangs for future relations. It was completely up to people to either accept or pick another option.
