Okay but like seriously though, let's not tell Nintendo about this... About what, you ask? Exactly!

Some games make you feel like a hero, and others make you feel like you're playing a tree in the school play.

Alright fine. I could have images for my projects hosted on-site, but you gotta promise me you won't go snooping in there. There might be spoilers, y'know?

Greetings visitor! I hope you're having a good day! Whether you've seen me around the guild or not, I should admit that it's only been within year-6 of my time on this site that I've bothered to start work on this here "bio". I feel like I should apologize for not making it a higher priority much sooner, but lately I've adopted that "better late than never" mindset when it comes to introductions, and besides, I doubt there was much to tell in my early years anyway. I'm pretty much an amateur writer who got my start as a minor tag-along player in a fandom AU campaign ran by a small, close-nit remnant of a community formerly in association with a notable strategy-gaming youtuber. I'm being vague for brevity's sake. In the end, I value my first exposure to roleplaying as a personal learning experience more than anything, as I'm definitely the kind of person that sequesters themselves in any given community they find themselves in and RPG is certainly no exception.

That pretty much explains what I've been up to for the last several or so years, with only occasional public posts from me, as private 1x1 roleplays are easily where the lion's share of my attention goes to. Details regarding my particular interests and even approach as a prospective partner can be found in the interest check I update very rarely, but if you'd like to have a link to it or want to work with me in a similar capacity, then PMs are the best way to reach me. As for what you can expect in very broad terms, I'll say that I'm a 90s kid who'd grown up on Nintendo and Cartoon Network where, thanks to Toonami, I've developed an appreciation for the Japanese style of animation, a style that commonly influences my own creative endeavors to this day. That is in no way to say that I'm an avid watcher of anime and the like (I have my tastes and while that does sometimes coincide with what's current, it usually doesn't), just that I gravitate toward the ludicrous, extraordinary concepts and settings they commonly facilitate. That style aligns with what excites me creatively. That's the long and short of it. Exceptions do exist of course.

I doubt I have all that much to add at this point, but if we're still waiting by tomorrow, I guess I'll post something then.
@KatherinWinter
James and Cecilia have made it to shore. No one else yet I believe.
@Noodles
Thanks. Sorry for the wait by the way.
@Noodles
Hmm... Yeah kinda. I would think that it would do slightly more damage over time than poison, but for not nearly as long.
Varen
@Noodles
Varen growled angrily as he looked back after hearing Athel and Isamu abandon Willow and try and join in the fight, their prisoner going free. At this point, as far as he was concerned, those two, provided they were still alive by the end of this, better have hoped he wasn't or at the very least "all killed out". Had he known that this would have happened, he would have lopped off Akemi's legs and demanded the others drag her back to the tower. Now he had provoked some idiots to get themselves killed... so mixed feelings, all things considered.

Still, he didn't have time to think about what he simply couldn't change now as Ares sent a silencing blast his way, the spearman diving out of the way, quickly getting back on his feet to find that Athel had been hit, soon clashing with Willow who showed up to harass her under her skill of Dark Sight. Isamu advanced to provide assistance, but was then intercepted by a <<Laughing Coffin>> Lieutenant, leaving Varen spoiled for choice as to whom he should assist first, provided said Lieutenant didn't also bring his team along, in which case the red head knew exactly what he needed to do.

Guess it's now or never... Varen thought, calmly unequipping his weapon and opening a window to navigate through his gear, a particular set in mind. In a matter of a few seconds his armor shifted into a new set, his spear following suit and switching into a bladed spear with a fluffy, brightly colored charm on it. His new armor was more elaborately designed than his Medium Hunter Armor. It was by a considerable margin, the strongest gear he had and he was eager to put them to use. If left unhindered, he would brandish his new spear and head for Akemi and the Warchief, reasoning above all else that if she should fall and the leader left unhindered, then no one is getting back alive no matter what happens with the others. His reach was slightly shorter than before, but Varen would try and work in tandem with Akemi, seizing an opportunity to unleash a series of rapid strikes totaling four across Ares' left side as Akemi was meeting his sword on the leader's right.
Hey again. I was wondering about Veran perhaps unveiling a new armor/weapon set for my post. I have them under Equip Set 2 and under it I've proposed a new skill. I like them, but if you think that now isn't the time for something like this then I'll understand and rewrite the post. I'm sorry for being so presumptuous. Just wanted to let you know.

Equipment
Flame Daybreak Spear: A deceptively simple weapon suited for either one or two handed use and, although yet to be fully upgraded, is capable of igniting its blade for added fiery damage. It is most effectively used with quick, successive slicing attacks in mind.

Sunset Emissary Armor: Advanced armor of exceptional protective potential and dark elemental resistance. There is a 15% chance per hit received of imparting the Darkness status effect that decreases the attacker's accuracy, making successful hits less likely.

Skill
Day Breaker: A special spear art granted by the Flame Daybreak Spear entailing a wide flaming attack that can either cause the status effect of fire or carries the chance to significantly damage the target's armor and weaponry, decreasing said equipment's effectiveness or even breaking them apart after enough successful hits by this skill.
Alright, I'll have Viranti show Sert out and be done with it. I recommend everyone move on. No one need rewrite their posts or even acknowledge the incident in the future, but we're moving on with the plot. As far as I'm concerned, the matter is resolved.
Mangrale

The post is pretty much ready and I believe that is all there is to it. I am sorry if it is not to your taste. But like I said, you needn't acknowledge any of it in your post. It's over. The recourse of ignoring Sert completely was proposed to Darkmoon Angel a few times, but they seemed insistent on dealing with the issue. So I did. Please understand.

My post could be summed up as: [And then Viranti got mad. Also, you may or may not see Sert again.]

Viranti

As fierce as Viranti sounded, he didn't have any experience fighting mechanical beings like Sert before, so when the machine threw a punch in his direction, there was no draw, no glint of intention in the eyes (nor eyes of any discernible kind for that matter), just force as its fist swiftly slammed into the young dragon's barely risen, crossed forearms. Viranti was thrust back into the wall in recoil, Sert immediately pinning him with a bulky forearm against his chest, and its other appendage clenching one of his arms. The red dragon's free hand gripped the robot's forearm in vain as he struggled to free himself. After a second and nothing to show for it, Viranti knew he couldn't keep this up and had to make the next few moments count. "Okay, scrap pile... You want to play?..." he derided in a more guttural voice through a cocky smile, a bright orange glow emanating from his throat as he took a deep breathe. The second after, flames erupted from his mouth, flowing over the robot's front body plate and dramatically heating the metal thereof. "Let's play for real!" Sert flinched backward and loosened his grip, allowing Viranti to free himself and twist the machine's primary offending limb behind its back. Now at the advantage, the former hunter wasted no time in vigorously kicking the automaton in the back and against the same wall, the blunt and savage percussion reverberating throughout the building. Sert turned immediately, his arm quickly arcing sideways to meet his attacker, but finding no purchase as the dragon had jumped back and then surged forward with all his strength, his fist driving into Sert's front plating weakened minutely by the fire breathe, leaving a fair dent in its hull. The force of the hit, blew out nearby candles and from the sound, you'd thing Sert was hit with a war hammer. To the dragon's exhausted alarm the robot rose, but then appeared to "deactivate", dropping with a loud thud to its knees and remaining completely motionless afterwards. Viranti looked at his opponent, then across the church with a sense if ecstatic triumph. But at seeing only the shocked and dismayed faces of church members and maybe even a few of the would be heroes, his jubilant expression gradually fell until he just felt out of place, seeing nothing left to do but carry the exceedingly heavy automatic instigator on his back and out of the building, where the town guards waited to take it away for the time being. After his business was done, Viranti quietly resumed waiting as per usual against a section of wall near where the altercation had taken place.
@Darkmoon Angel@Lucius Cypher
As you guys wish. :)
@Darkmoon Angel
Sorry, I didn't think you'd be back so soon and Lucius Cypher just posted indicating he would move on. Can I please take care of it like I said?


Okay. I thought I'd offer, anyway. I'll drop the subject and move on for good. XP
