In the shadow of Beacon. (RWBY roleplay)

Posted for Salvia (like Silvia)... :-P Inferno and I have been working PM, like she said. That, I think is just about ready to get posted. Sorry for the delay guys. I promise I'm not flaking out, I've just been way busier than I guessed. I don't really plan to do anything much IRL today, except some laundry... thank god. I'm sorry for holding you up, Santa, and thank you for your patience.

In the shadow of Beacon. (RWBY roleplay)

((Sorry for the delay)) Salvia spun her spear once as she surveyed the immediate area around her. She'd landed cleanly, which had been a fun time. Now though, she was on her own. While she was fairly sure she could handle most Grimm, trying to make it entirely to the temple by herself could be viewed as a suicide attempt... at least by some people's standards. Not if Godspear had anything to say about it. A formidable weapon in most people's hands, in her masterful hands it was something to be feared. Using it like a walking stick, she jammed the butt end into the ground as she walked, leaving a trail of dots next to her footsteps. "Come out, come out, wherever you are..." Salvia called quietly, to both friend and foe. Nearby the bushes rustled some, and there came a sound that was not made by any throat she'd heard, human or faunus. It was somewhere between a grunt, a belch, and a squeak. It came a few more times before a squat creature with stubby legs, Grimm mask, and rounded tusks that protected it's front end. The back was armored with sharp plates that were almost like spines. Baleful glowing eyes turned toward her, and immediately the thing bellowed a squealing challenge that echoed through the woods. It charged forward, faster than she thought the stubby legs should have been able to rush her. As it neared her the Boarbatusk tucked it's head down, rolling into a ball, splaying out the plates on it's back. It managed to accelerate further, ripping up some of the forest floor, hurtling headlong at her. Salvia tilted her head and readied her spear up high, holding it by the butt in her right hand, the left hand grabbed the middle, tip angled forward and down about forty-five degrees. Her left foot was forward, her right foot back, presenting her left side to the monster as it rushed forward. Gesturing with the tip of the spear, the air seemed to explode upward, rocketing the pigling into the air. Studying it's rise, and then fall... Salvia planted her spear firmly into the ground. The flailing Boarbatusk slammed down on the length of her spear, impaled cleanly through the body, squalling in rage and terrible agony. It had landed on it's side, the blade tearing through it's ribs and exploding out the other side under it's own bodyweight and force of the fall. The girl kicked the spear, spilling it and the hog over on it's back. Removing her weapon after a couple tugs, she jammed the spear into the thing's throat and out the back of it's neck. Guaranteeing the kill, as it were. If the Boarbatusk got back up and attacked from behind, or attacked another student unprepared, it could go very badly. It would be terribly irresponsible of her too. Glancing down, she shuddered. "Aww maaan... I got some of it on my shoe,' she said, flicking her foot, trying to get the black ichor from the creature off her foot. The pigling's form was beginning to dissolve away as she glanced around, seeing if the noise had attracted anything else.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Sielber Vulpez

Name: Seilber Vulpez
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Race: Faunus (Fox)

Weapon: Spin Blades, named Roulette Spokes
Spin Blade form, Bow (ranged, handles join in middle, string is energy, fires Dust based energy packets, regular or modified arrows), can be joined and thrown like a double bladed short spear/javelin. Carry mode: The necks telescope down, and the teardrop shaped heads join the handles, the handles swing out and snap into place, covering the blades, and each one can be slipped away into pockets, pouches, or kept with the blade heads out, but in short handle mode, or can simply be threaded through a belt.

Specialty:
Seilber tends to work from range with the bow form, channeling powerful Dust based attacts, precision shots with arrows when she has them, or even using illusory arrows with her semblance. Inversely, she is just as comfortable at close range, using her blades in rapid succession creating a virtual screen of cutting strikes. Using the handle loops around a finger, she can flail her blades often three or four times in a single swipe of her arm, or they can be spun in front of her to create a screen against projectiles. Combining the blades she can throw it end over end or point on, or create illusions of such. Fighting full out, she becomes a blurred form that dodges and strikes from many angles, elusive, hard to pin down as man or beast strikes at mirages and shadows, keeping her safe from harm as she was, in that moment, somewhere else. She fights using trickery, natural fox-based agility, as well as her ability to leap and jump, dodging side to side, and attacking overhead, while paying attention to her animal keen senses. Seilber makes a wonderful distraction or tenacious terrorizer, or even a slippery assassin, and is capable at almost any range of combat. Another note, combining her attacks with Mirage Replay, she may replay an attack again, maybe several times depending on what was involved, or project successful strikes before following through with a final attack, as even the illusions will do damage. This often looks like double or multiple images following through, landing multiple hits in bursts, multiplying her output. She often will use her illusions as semi-corporeal or corporeal to help her maneuver into sniper perches or superior positions, or as a springboard, giving her a great deal of flexibility.

Semblance:
Mirage Replay - This semblance creates illusion, of the user, or whatever the user touches. Can be used to leave behind an afterimage, or multiple images (such as Mirror Image spell), but can be used with a weapon to disguise which incoming attack is the real one, or can treat each illusion as 'real', but only the true weapon can kill. It allows rapid follow-up shots or strikes as the afterimage/mirage catches up and follows through. Very useful in confusing opponents, and providing a defensive and offensive edge. At high levels of use, aura can be manifested to be solid or semi-solid, but only for short periods. (more detail to follow)

Personality:
((Subject to change during play, as this is just guestimation. She could wind up totally different.)) Can be elusive or evasive. Cautious, careful, wary. Smart, but when finds those that she can trust or are worthy, will attach to them strongly. Can be manipulative, and play tricks from time to time. Tends to use said manipulation to get what she wants. Will often play the nice girl, and when not on her guard, can actually be nice. Is not above using her looks, or anything else at her disposal to get what she wants.Generally she only goes to those kinds of tactics if there is a justifiable reason, in her mind. Sometimes likes to mess with others, especially when she perceives them as less intelligent, or needing to be knocked down a peg. She might be perceived as petty or passive-aggressive, or at least snide or sarcastic. This is done sometimes to be funny, or to hide her true feelings, or at least vent them. Probably a bit of a smart-ass. Foxes can be social and affectionate creatures, but often they aren't good at it, or don't know how at first. As such, Seilber can fall into this pattern. Inquisitive, curious, nosy, which can lead to trouble, and may be likely to push the boundaries of the rules. May become aggressive when an opponent is perceived as weak.

Color: Silver

Emblem:

Appearance: Single tail, not nine. Hair would be silvery white in winter, but changes toward spring and summer to be rusty, brownish, and reddish, like the changing fur of the Arctic foxes her name is drawn from. The following references below should give some idea.

PM'd you, Inferno. I'm sorry for not getting any posts up today. I've been hella busy. I -had- planned on posting when I was at work. I never even went to work today, so busy was I. I'm going to try to catch up before bed. Barring that, I will look at doing so tomorrow, as I -am- going in. I should have most of the day free, unless I get lucky and actually have clients. Even then, I will have time when I get home.

The Heroes of Beacon - The Next Chapter!

I'm sorry I've been quiet for a few days. Real Life has had a bunch of crap for me to do. I've hardly had any time for myself. Where do we currently stand with the RP and such?

Naruto: Jaded Ideals

You already know I'm interested.

In the shadow of Beacon. (RWBY roleplay)

Nah, it's fine. Salvia is actually ahead of him, so he'd have to catch up. I kinda was doing the whole boosting thing that Yang did, except with her Semblance, but I didn't want to get too far ahead. I will probably post before I go to bed, or I will post tomorrow at some point. Also, yay for BB code!

In the shadow of Beacon. (RWBY roleplay)

Sorry? Santa is kind of doing his own thing for the moment, even though I left him a fairly perfect opportunity.
