Ignite Heart! A Magical Girl RP

Attempt number two! I think this one turned out a lot better, really. Been literally years since I last played the amnesia card though (I think that was about three forums ago too), but yeah. Naturally, I've discussed a lot of this with Vita so hopefully it works out better than the last character I made (at the very least, I think it's less embarrassingly bad) so here we go.

Rei

• Name: Rei Higanbana
• Magical Girl Title: Southern Cross
• Age: 16... Possibly. She's not entirely sure herself.
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: Not much different from her magical girl appearance, really, aside from wearing a cheap, plain sweater and skirt.
• Magical Girl Appearance: Something like this.
• Personality: Whilst she can seem a bit distant at times, Rei isn't really as antisocial as she might first come off as. She's actually a bit shy, and speaks in a soft, quiet voice that betrays her insecurities just a little. Rei is perfectly willing to socialize, however, although she tries to choose her words carefully and thus doesn't always say as much as she wants to. She sometimes seems a little distant, though, most likely due to her inability to remember her past or just why she became a magical girl in the first place. When she is a magical girl, though, she's a bit... Louder, and more violent, and has been known to be especially brutal towards Negari. It's abundantly clear that she utterly despises Negari, although even she isn't sure what causes her to hate them with such intensity.
• Skills: Aside from her ability to fight, Rei doesn't really have many notable skills. She's not exactly dumb but she's not the smartest magical girl out there either, and she only shows average talent for most things she tries. The exception is cooking, something she picked up alarmingly quickly whilst trying to pay back the people who gave her somewhere to stay; she's an excellent cook, and whatever she makes tends to taste absolutely delicious.
• Abilities: Southern Cross is never going to win any awards for being the fastest magical girl around, as she moves with a relatively lumbering pace. Her lack of swiftness is compensated for by the fact that her durability and especially her strength are much higher than that of the average magical girl, to the point that she's probably faster simply jumping from place to place rather than running. Her set of special attacks is as follows:
  • Steel Cyclone: Southern Cross holds out her hammer and spins like a top, sending any enemies unlucky enough to be near her flying off into the distance. After about ten seconds, though, she starts to get a bit dizzy and queazy, losing her balance and leaving her disorientated for a few moments afterwards.
  • Ray Star: Southern Cross charges electrical energy in her hammer before giving it a mighty swing, tossing out a ball of lightning that explodes on contact. It's not very long ranged, however, and the ball will simply dissipate into nothing if it doesn't hit anything after flying for about ten meters.
  • Tectonic Break: Southern Cross raises her hammer to the sky before bringing it crashing down to the ground, causing the earth to quake and and mighty fissure to open up in front of her. This is her most powerful attack at the moment, although the fact that it's so obviously telegraphed and takes a relatively long time to pull off leaves her pretty open whilst using it.
• Weapon(s): Cross Purpose, a collosal hammer that is so heavy most magical girls can barely even budge it. It's a testament to Rei's physical strength that she can swing it about as though it was nothing.
• Brief History: The girl now known as "Rei Higanbana" is a girl without a past. The first thing she can remember is washing up on the shores of Umitori City, bereft of any memories from her life previous to this, the only things even hinting at who she was beforehand being the fact that she was a magical girl and her seemingly overwhelming hatred for the Negari. Even she is not sure how she become a magical girl or why she hates the Negari so much, and the one person who could possibly answer these questions, her fairy, is nowhere to be found. Currently, she lives in a small family-run inn that gave her a free room after she saved their youngest daughter from a Negari attack, and splits her time between fighting as a magical girl and trying to uncover any clues about her past she can find. However, she's constantly plagued by nightmares when she sleeps, terrible dreams of an infinite blackness threatening to devour her, and an unearthly figure she does not recognize but who paralyzes her with fear...
• Fairy: Rei's fairy is mysteriously absent, and most likely missing. Whilst Rei is searching for information as to her whereabouts, this is somewhat hampered by the fact that she can remember neither her name, her appearance or anything else about her.

Master

• Name: Seffora Arcuballista
• Age: 17
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: Whee.
• Personality: Overly confident nearly to the point of arrogance, and a bit of a showboat, Seffora is immensely proud of her magical prowess and not exactly shy about showing it. This can tend to rub some people the wrong way, but she doesn't really let that get to her. She's perpetually cheerful and optimistic, albeit a bit ditzy at times; she has a short attention span and finds it hard to really focus on things outside out of her interests, which are mostly cute girls and lasers. As she herself says, "lasers are a girl's best friend!". Really, she just wants people to see how great she is, and to recognize her for her talents, which is why she practically jumped at the chance to be a part of this endeavour.
• Skills: Besides being a skilled mage, Seffora is also a talented cook and doesn't have as much problems with modern technology as other mages. However, she's also small and not exactly the most physical of people, relying more on her mana reserves than her physical prowess and can easily be overpowered in close-quarters.
• Abilities:
  • Magecraft: Seffora's elemental affinity is Air, and she possesses a moderate amount of high quality magic circuits. Despite being a decently skilled mage, Seffora is not very good at Formalcraft, as she relies far more on her own naturally high mana reserves than any kind of ritual-based magecraft.
  • Notable Spells: Whilst she is rather skilled at several forms of magecraft, due to her high mana reserves Seffora has a tendency to focus mostly on blasts of mana. Her three favourite spells are Twinkle Laser (a small, fast beam of energy that can be fired rapidly), Sparkle Laser (a larger, more powerful beam) and Shining Laser (a far larger and stronger beam than even Sparkle Laser, which quickly drains even Seffora's mana reserves when used). These aren't actually the real names of these spells, but Seffora insists that her names are better.
  • Gandiva Simulacrum: A Mystic Code made in the image of the legendary Arjuna's Gandiva, although naturally nowhere near as powerful. By channeling their mana through it, the user is able to create arrows of light, and although only one can be shot at a time it has exceptionally long range and can pierce several targets at once.
• History: The Arcuballistas are an old family of mages from Britain, who during the days of the British Raj spent a lot of time in India studying the mystical beliefs of the natives. Even back then, many of the more traditional mages found this distasteful, feeling they had been "polluted" by outside influences, but their standing was still high enough that no-one tried to directly confront them about this. Over the years, they moved about the Asian continent, studying different forms of magecraft and consorting with various sources considered heretical by the Mage Association, with some unconfirmed rumours claiming they may have had some connections with the Theosophical Society of Helena Blavatsky for some time. Still, whilst the more conservative sector of the association secretly wished to see their line's demise, during the late 20th century an upsurge of more radical thinkers began to find themselves a voice in the halls of the Clock Tower, none more prominent than the new Lord El-Melloi. Thanks to this, and the magical prowess of their latest scion Seffora, they have found a place for themselves with only a relatively small threat of being executed by the traditionalists. Seffora herself practically embodies their place in the world of mages, as whilst many of the younger radicals are rather fond of her (despite some of her more abrasive tendencies), the older mages aren't exactly keen on her and only really put up with her because of how talented a mage she is. Nevertheless, she was still put forward for this project by one of her older teachers, who assured her that such an important task was best handled by someone with her natural talent... Whilst they secretly hoped that the danger of the mission would lead to her having an unfortunate accident and never being seen again.

Don't worry, we are eternal...

• Name: Nursery Rhyme ("Alice")
• Class: Caster
• Appearance: "Lovely you and lonely me, let us dream together."
• Abilities:
  
  • Strength: E
  • Endurance: E
  • Agility: C
  • Mana: A
  • Luck: B
  • Noble Phantasm: EX
  • Territory Creation: A
  • Self-Modification: A
  • Shapeshift: A+
  • Meanwhile...: A
• Noble Phantasms: Nursery Rhyme: A Tale For Somebody's Sake: A Reality Marble embodying the concept of nursery rhymes, fairy tales and children's fables, a gateway to Caster's inner world; although Caster herself is a product of this Reality Marble, creating an infinite loop where there is no beginning or end, just like the very concepts she embodies. Without fully activating it, she is able to pull concepts from this inner world and use them in the real world, basically turning fantasy into reality; due to a past encounter, however, she is especially fond of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, and so often pulls concepts and characters from the Alice books. This includes card soldiers, griffons, mock turtles, and most dangerous of all the manxome Jabberwock. She also has the ability to call forth the Nameless Forest, but due to how dangerous it is to both friend and foe she is rather reluctant to do so. Invoking the name of the Noble Phantasm will fully activate the Reality Marble, unleashing Caster's inner world and transforming the surrounding area into a facsimile of Wonderland itself, a world built on the nursery rhymes and fairy tales, a dreamlike land where nothing is ever as it first appears. Caster is almost like the queen of this whimsical reality, and as such can instantly summon multiple beings from the stories and poems that she is the embodiment of. However, like all childhood fantasies, the Reality Marble is ephemeral and fleeting, and will eventually collapse and return the world to its usual state.
• Personality: Polite and cheerful, but also childlike in her view of the world. She tends to be rather friendly to others and can be quite the chatterbox sometimes, and seems to find it hard to show malice towards others, even her supposed enemies. As the Heroine of Children, she cares deeply about children and one of the few ways to make her angry is to upset or hurt them; it doesn't need to be physically either, as there are certain other Heroic Spirits she despises due to the stories they wrote as humans. She also can't stand bullies, and isn't afraid to make this fact abundantly clear. Despite having the identity of "Nursery Rhyme", the embodiment of her namesake, she insist on being called "Alice" instead, and occasionally refers to herself as such in the third person. Even though she claims to hate bad ends and love happy endings, she seems perfectly fine with actually fighting; it's possible that her childlike innocence doesn't entirely grasp the concept leading to her seeing it as a game and her battles simply being playing with the others. She is especially fond of tea parties and will often try to set one up when left to her own devices.
• Other: Utterly adorable and precious and is in fact the best Caster ever.

• Name: Frankenstein's Monster
• Class: Berserker
• Appearance: It's alive!
• Abilities:
  • Strength: B
  • Endurance: B
  • Agility: D
  • Mana: D
  • Luck: C
  • Noble Phantasm: C
  • Mad Enhancement: D
  • Galvanism: B
  • Lament of the Falsely Living: D
  • Overload: C
• Noble Phantasms:
  • Bridal Chest: A Maiden's Chastity (Anti-Unit, C)
  • Blasted Tree: The Lightning Tree of Crucifixion (Anti-Army, D~B)
• Personality: A man-made "monster" possessing poor social skills due to being abandoned by her creator. Her speech is somewhat awkward and she finds it somewhat difficult to communicate with others, although this belies the fact that she is actually highly intelligent and an almost inhumanly quick learner. The "monster" doesn't really show much expression and can be rather hard to read, although deep down her two strongest emotions are fear towards her own "monstrous" nature and a deep sense of loneliness due to being the only one of her kind. Her deepest wishes are for companionship, to find someone who understands her and who will save her from the loneliness, and to discover a way to become a true human. This isn't helped by the fact that she's a little bit misanthropic, her poor treatment in the past causing her to distrust humans despite wanting to be one herself. She's extremely mindful of energy conservation, and has a compulsive habit of switching off lights and electronic equipment when no-one else is in the room.

I think I gave up any attempt to be serious here, which resulted in, uh, this. ^^;

Pasanda

• Name: Etsuko Kang
• Magical Girl Title: Magical Girl Pasanda
• Age: 13
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: See below, only minus the flashy magical girl outfit. She generally either wears her school's sailor uniform or just a t-shirt emblazoned with the logo of her family's curryhouse and a skirt.
• Magical Girl Appearance: Curry flavoured justice!
• Personality: A hotblooded defender of justice, seemingly possessed of infinite energy and no indoor voice. She's a good person, really, and has a both a strong sense of justice and little tolerance for intolerance, it's just she has a tendency to overreact to everything. Most notably, however, Etsuko has a bizarre, overwhelming obsession with curry. Curry is her favourite thing in the world, and she finds it hard to not just go off on rambling tangents about curry at the slightest provocation. Due to her doing this in both of her personas, she finds it hard to keep her identity as Magical Girl Pasanda secret... Although she doesn't seem to realize she's supposed to have a secret identity, really.
• Skills: Etsuko is a superb cook, and anything she makes turns out delicious, but... She can only cook curry. She's a master of practically every dish that can be described as "curry", but every time she tries to cook anything else it somehow just turns into curry. Other than that, she's moderately athletic and has below average grades.
• Abilities: Whilst transformed, Etsuko gains a boost to her physical capabilities. Whilst her speed and endurance are average compared to most magical girls, her strength is pretty high tier, allowing her to effortless toss Negari about like ragdolls (as well as heavy objects such as trees, cars and large chunks of debris). Her special attacks mostly involve either her monstrous strength or the manipulation of heat. Currently, her attack list is as follows:
  • Korma Special: Pasanda punches an opponent really hard. So hard that weakened enemies have a tendency to explode for no adequately explored reason, and even if they don't explode they still usually get sent flying.
  • Biryani Buster: Pasanda leaps into the air and launches a powerful diving kick, whilst surrounded by a red hot aura. If it hits, it tends to hurt a lot, often causing opponents to explode for some reason. It's a bit less reliable than the Korma Special, however, as if she misses it tends to hurt her instead as she fall facefirst to the ground.
  • Vindaloo Inferno: Pasanda charges up the power of curry in her spoon for a moment before giving an opponent a good whack with it. Not only does it send them flying, but it also causes their temperature to rapidly increase, and if not stopped soon enough it will cause them to, you guessed it, explode.
• Weapon(s): Magical Girl Pasanda fights with a giant wooden spoon that is longer than she is tall, although she has a tendency to sometimes toss it to the side and just fight with her fists.
• Brief History: Born to a Korean father and a Japanese mother, Etsuko's early childhood was fraught with bullying due to her mixed heritage. Whilst others in her situation would become shut-ins, Etsuko refused to cave in and decided that the best way to fight bigotry was through the stomach. Thus, she ended up spending a lot of her childhood helping out at her parents' curryhouse, maybe a little too much, as whilst she gained the respect of her peers she also grew somewhat obsessed with the restaurant's speciality. She no longer was labelled the half-Korean girl, and was instead labelled the Curry Girl, with a near-encyclopedic knowledge of curries of the world! And according to her, curry helped bring people together and fight hatred, a belief which... Somehow ended up attracting the attention of the fairy Pakora. Enlisted to fight the Negari, the Magical Girl Pasanda soon became infamous for her love of justice only being rivaled by her love of curry.
  • Fairy Name: Pakora
  • Fairy Appearance: "Boo-yah!"
  • Fairy Personality: A fairy who seems far more interested in watching chaos unfurl than actually fighting evil, and who is glad that her partner allows her to witness both at the same time. She has a tendency to egg on others to do crazy, reckless things, with little justification other than "it would be so cool!". Pakora tends to get bored easily, and can be a little antagonistic towards people she doesn't know very well, whilst still being a bit of a jerk towards people she does know. The only person she's nice to is Etsuko, really, and that's mostly because if she gets too annoying Etsuko threatens to withhold curry from her.
• Theme Song: Let's go with... This, I guess.

Going to try and get something done this time around at least, but we'll see how things turn out I guess.

Name aside, how do you feel about the abilities? I know sometimes people are kind of iffy about players using legendary Zoan devil fruits

@jynmi88

Aside from not being sure why it's being classed as legendary (huskies aren't exactly a legendary creature after all, and the abilities seem pretty balanced)... Well actually I just said it there, the abilities seem pretty balanced and fair. Gives a few decent perks, but has a built-in additional weakness to compensate. Seems fine to me.

...Meanwhile, I'm taking way too long to do this because I keep coming up with ideas only to quickly discard them because I'm overthinking things and deciding that they're not really all that interesting. Hum. Oh well, hopefully something will stick eventually. ^^;

@jynmi88That's what the dog Devil Fruit was translated as, though. The Japanese one is just Inu-Inu no Mi, which is literally just "dog-dog fruit". XD So all canine-based Zoans are different models of that one.
