Tobias Rieper

Location: Grimbold's Cabin
Interacting With:N/A

---

Finally, Grimbold spoke up, telling them of the task he had for them. They were to keep someone inside their house next Saturday, either physically or mentally. And something about a call, perhaps Grimbold would check on them that evening. Tobias frowned as he wondered how he would keep his target inside his house. His power was predicative in nature, unlike most of the group, who had something that was more active in nature. His target didn't really help matters either, it was his landlord of all people. Tobias doubted his animal form, the raccoon could do much with the task Grimbold assigned him.

Tobias was sure he'd have to do something physical to keep his landlord inside. Hopefully it wouldn't have to come to something drastic, but he had a week to figure it out. In the meantime, he should probably change into his animal. "I always hated this part..." The transformation wasn't painful, but it felt strange. Yes, Tobias had changed before, but it never became normal to him. The whole losing all your clothes thing was very inconvenient, but he supposed even magic had it's limits.

Now a raccoon, Tobias slowly backed out of what was his shirt. He'd learned from his first few attempts that moving forward just usually led to his head getting stuck on his shirt, and Tobias would be running around with it stuck until he transformed back. Not like it obscured his vision, but it would ruin his t-shirt and people's attention would be drawn to him. Tobias then began his way to the shrine, not wishing to waste anymore time.

Hunting the Most Dangerous Game (Private RWBY RP)

Cobalt

Name:
Cobalt Pennant

Age:
18

Color:
Blue

Race:
Human

Weapon:

A mix between a battle-axe and shotgun.

Semblance:
Multiplication: Can make up to three copies that only last long enough to mimic a single attack.

Personality:
Being born into a prestigious family in Atlas has not helped much with his social interactions with Faunus. He comes off as elitist and racist, and cannot stand the non-humans. In his eyes, the four kingdoms should have slaughtered all of the beasts when they decided to rebel. After all, if the weak crumble underfoot, then it is only natural that humans enslaved and oppressed the Faunus. As such, Cobalt will go out of his way to be cruel towards Faunus. On the other hand, he treats other humans kindly and will hardly bear any ill will toward a human, except if they try and defend Faunus "filth". Basically he believes in social Darwinism.

Backstory:
Cobalt was born into a military family, his father being a colonel in the Atlas army. His father was especially bitter about losses of the estate after the Faunus War, as they owned many indentured Faunus and were forced to set them all free. Cobalt's father had dreams about returning the humans back to their rightful place as the master, and the Faunus the slave. From the day he was born, his father instilled his values into the boy, and trained Cobalt in order to fight and replace in the hopes that the White Fang would spark another war.

Sadly, the war never came. The Pennants lost influence as the years passed, as their Anti-Faunus views started to become archaic and seen as a hindrance. It was hardly a surprise when the Atlas government decided to strip his father of his rank and possessions for his Anti-Faunus views, as they were becoming more and more tolerant of the Faunus. His father committed suicide, unable to take the dishonor.

This only made Cobalt more bitter towards Faunus. If only the war had wiped out the savages. Finding himself suddenly without a home, he swore vengeance. Cobalt decided to enroll into Beacon Academy, to become the most elite of hunters and prove that humans were the superior race.

Of course, due to his previous training, it was plainly obvious he would be the leader of the team.

Other:
Cobalt abuses his leadership power just to make life a bit more difficult for the faunus members of his team.

Cursed Critters - Tallshade Tales

Tobias Rieper

Location: Grimbold's Cabin
Interacting With:Sloane

Sloane decided to pick on him of course. It was to be expected after all, seeing as she hated his guts and he hated hers. "Yeah sure, but there's a thing called human decency. Not that you're decent at all anyway, so I wouldn't expect you to understand." Yes, he had probably already seen most of the group naked already, but by no means did that mean Tobias wanted to see the naked all the time. It wasn't like he was some teenage boy high on hormones, desperate for any glance of the female body. "I honestly could care less if you want to be a rebel and walk around naked."

Tobias wished that would be the end of the conversation, but seeing how Angel and Skylar were joining the conversation, he doubted it. Sloane wasn't the type to just let these things go. It was another reason why Tobias swore one of these days he'd lose his temper and start beating the living shit out of her. Granted, had he met the girl 3-4 years back, Tobias probably would have just swung at her during their first encounter.

Yes, Tobias's constant backtalk wasn't helping much with the situation, but he had to release the anger somehow, seeing how flipping the table over and then losing his shit wasn't much of an option.

Tobias Rieper

Location: Grimbold's Cabin
Interacting With: Daniel, Nina

The sweet smell of baked pastries filled the cabin, and although Tobias had already ate it was hard to resist. After all, the cafe usually sold these cakes in small pieces, and they cost enough to to buy a meal or two elsewhere. The Castle Street Café tried to justify it through one hundred percent fresh ingredients or something, but it was probably just fancy vocab so hipsters would recommend buying an overpriced snack to their friends and family. "Thanks Daniel. Real nice of ya."

Though it seemed Daniel was averting his gaze from something. Tobias looked in the direction Daniel was avoiding, and it was naked Nina. "Oh come on...." Did she really have to use her powers now? It was hardly necessary to transform in front of everyone, this was just wanton usage.. She literally just had to walk a few more steps and there would be an empty room where she could change. Granted, seeing how almost everyone was gawking at her naked body, it might have been a grab for attention.

Hell, Terry was staring for quite some time. Tobias didn't want to jump to conclusions, as it might have been just pure shock, but it certainly seemed that she was staring out of lust. Yeah, Tobias was a guy, he couldn't say there was no impure thoughts, but even he and Daniel restrained themselves better than Terry had.

"You know, even though I'm sure a lot of us enjoyed the show, you might wanna change instead of being butt naked in front of the group." Tobias raised his voice a bit louder than usual just in case she couldn't hear in the room over.

Quick question: how do you get GIFs to work? Is it the same as adding an image because my GIF just seems to be a still image.

@CharmingDevil

Yes. Although some links don't work sometimes, so that may be the issue.
