DionI haven't created a character yet, but I have discussed with the other GMs about your character. Since you want a concrete answer, I shall give you several on why pretty much ALL the gms said no. Not just some. I'll start with the most glaring issue. Your power is OP.ANYONE with blood will already lose.. since he can just pretty much drain,mind control, and flippin make weapons from their own blood. I fail to see how this really is balanced at all. There's really only one character, the machine that would be able to really do anything against him. I also do not see how you would limit this power at all, since it's concept makes it utterly broken for anyone who has blood. Now, you might say, look at his weaknesses. We've looked at them, and they really do not justify allowing "blood sorcery". First of all, a mage with light or dark magic would simply get destroyed by "blood sorcery." Sunlight is almost irrelevant as it does not affect him that much. And it doesn't help that the only side effect from overuse is going berserk. Secondly, that "weakness" also means that in any major battle, he'd attack allies and enemy alike, since there would be immense bloodshed. Your lore is also flawed. If they were born of some legendary dragon who pretty much pissed off everyone, I don't see why he would be allowed in a school that is about protecting others, since he also has that world domination gig going on. Your lore has no indication that vampires would really be a friendly group either, leading to issues of coexistence. His goals will not be achieved by going to this Academy, which again, is about peace between both worlds as well. Even if he was discreet about his goals, there's still that. These reasons are mainly why no gm has allowed your CS. It's not a matter of taste, it's a matter of a broken power and the lore you have established has broken the lore of AoTTA. As for your other CS, I have not seen it, so I cannot make any judgement on that one.Well, take it from the perspective of a school. The whole point of the academy's existence is to train fine Gatekeepers, with the fate of both worlds in their hands. Why would they want unlawful individuals in a team to kill monsters, as they would be a liability. I'm not the CS acceptor, but I'm offering advice. As for start day, will be tomorrow most likely.I appreciate it, but it doesn't help much. First was a Lawful Evil character that was utterly denied for reasons still yet explained to me. The other so far is being rejected because it upsets the "taste" of some GMs.

I’ve worked min wage jobs and I’ve done the bare minimum and have still gotten the measly ten cent raises yearly and good references from them. There really is no point, bare minimum gets you by.

Elijah Antol
Early to Mid Afternoon, somewhere along the border of Nijiara and New Torrea
“You sure that thing is on it’s leash?”
“Yes, yes. Just make sure you do as you were told to do.” The magus controlling the spider replied, giving the merc an exasperated look. It was obvious that the ensemble of hired muscle was not up to his liking.
“Just as long as we’re paid. It’s a good thing your master, Donat, pays well. That bloody spider gives me the creeps. Sasha here holds the same sentiment.” The merc’s dire wolf emitted a short howl before continuing to smell what it could apart from the smoke and ashes.
“Jeez Arni. You’ve got a bigass wolf that can literally tear people apart and you’re complaining about a little spider? I ain’t scared of it one bit. All it’s been doing is spewing flames. That’s probably what it does for a living. Burn down forests and shit, ya know? Hardly givin a fuck!” Elijah laughed as Arni frowned at him. He was one of those serious types that never knew how to lighten up, and was a general downer. Elijah turned to the other merc, desperate to avoid Arni's gaze. “So what do you think of it Leandra? Knowing your god, he’d probably be angry a sister like yourself is collaborating with something straight outta hell.”
“All of his creations are equal in his eyes. The All-Knowing One must have his reasons for creating even something as foul as the Arachnoblaster.” It seemed odd that someone from the church had accompanied them. But, it was as much as a mystery as the job they had all accepted.
The job was supposed to be top secret. Hence only three escorts along with the mage who was controlling the titan of a spider. Alas, they were three very good mercenaries.
Arni, despite his lack of a personality, had more than enough hunting and tracking skills to make up for it. Need a scout, hunter, or someone flashy to put the fear in your enemy? Arni’s your man. His dire wolf can track you miles away, and Arni had a penchant for adorning combat claws to rip your shit.
Need a personal bodyguard for a day? Need something unexpected? Bloody enemy not perishing from a good bullet to the face? Leandra got your back. Holy magicks and pure faith, that’s right, PURE FAITH turned into holy retribution for your foes. Watch as light magicks smite your foes. Healing package included with every purchase!
And then there was Elijah, Guns are his name, fastest gunslinger of New Torrea… At least as far as he knew. Every person he'd dueled had a slower draw. Not to mention bad aim. But if you needed someone disposed of fast, Elijah was the one you call over to get shit done.
Sure the job was shady for Elijah. “Burn these forests down, but also look for these two women in the woods! By the way, they just happen to be Knight Commander Hazael's Sisters! Kidnap em for me!” How shadier could you get? But the pay made him decide to accept. Elijah really didn't have a choice anyway, but he’d like to think he had one. Donat made sure he accepted, along with the other mercs. So here he was. Miserable from the neverending fire of the Arachnoblaster, with two other strangers, protecting a spider and looking for two women for reasons unknown….

Skills:
- Adept Sharpshooter: Years of repetition means Elijah has a near perfect aim, one would be hard-pressed to find another gun user with Elijah's accuracy.
- Gunslinger: Elijah is able to simply draw his revolver in less than a second, being able to fire off cylinders of death at a moments notice. However, he is still at a disadvantage if a swordsman is in his face at point blank range, as he'd probably get cut down before he can fire any rounds.
- Fast Reflexes: He can react pretty fast to several situations, but this leads to many snap judgements that don't always favor him in the long run.
Been pretty busy as of late but I'm getting some free time so back to rpingWoah dude. I thought you disappeared off the face of the earth. Wassup?Dude I thought the same thing about you. Nothing much! Haven't really found any RP lately...They all seem to die before they begin. What about you?
Is there still room? I see this has quite a few people but I love big RPs.Woah dude. I thought you disappeared off the face of the earth. Wassup?

Should I post my CS here for approval or in the OOC?
Question, how far along are guns developed? Are we talking about flintlocks? Or revolvers, or something further down the line? You mentioned they were scarce but no mention of how advanced they have become.

Name:
Joseph Adams
Age:
15
Gender:
Male
Personality:
Kind at heart, Joseph usually attempts to keep the atmosphere light, but can go too far with his sarcasm that it may seem almost bullying at times. In tense situations however, he tends to shut down almost completely.
Bio:
Despite being born into a lower class, mostly neglectful family, Joseph doesn't seem to show any sign of this. He keeps his private life separate from his public life, perhaps as a coping mechanism. He also isn't a saint, having gotten into trouble once or a twice, but he tends to avoid such trouble with authority as his neglectful family suddenly notices him when messages home are sent. His social life is fine, not popular but he has a decent amount of friends.
Items:
Flashlight, Lighter, Pen, A bag of Trail Mix.
Greatest Fear(s):
Sharp objects. He tends to get a bit anxious around them.
Other:
