You know that feeling when you feel like you should be doing something, recognize that you're not doing anything, but then proceed to continue to do nothing? That's me. Everyday.
On the subject of relationships, I think Yuu and @Rune_Alchemist's Aegis could be the sneakiest duo ever... if Number Four took the time to learn sign language, Yuu's quirks, and was able to get around the "Red Wall of China", Ai.
Edit: I just reread all of the character sheets, and we have a LOT of standoffish characters. Seems legit, given their situation and probable superiority complex (no matter how small) over regular humans. Hopefully we dont fight each other too much.
"Hmph."
"..." *pointed look*
"...Really? Do I have to?"
*stares intently*
*sigh* "...I hope we all become... "friendly"..." *nearly gags*
Nicknames: Little Red and Silent Blue; The Gemini Sisters
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Appearance: Both Ai and Yuu stand at the dainty height of 4'11", weighing roughly around 95 lbs.
Ai was gifted with dark, emerald eyes, and shoulder-length auburn hair, a perpetual scowl is engraved into her childlike features that cause "Little Red" to seem younger than age identifies her as. She dons a red cloak and cowl tied together with an orange ribbon over a white shirt and beige breeches, hiding a surprisingly muscular body that has been trained and modified to the peak of physical fitness.
Yuu possesses platinum-blonde hair that was cut off before it touches her shoulders, framing her smooth, gentle features and dulled, blue eyes as a black bow hangs loftily from her bright colored locks. Her perpetual, light smile warms all who are graced with her presence. A blue mantle with hood is worn ontop of a white dress that cuts right below her knees.
Their numbers are located on the outside of their left thighs in coal black ink as Roman numerals. Predictably, they are not very pivy to showing it off.
Number: 1
Rank: B
Personality: Ai, while not terribly ill-mannered, emulates a misanthropist in how she deals with other people. She keeps her distance, even from her fellow half-brothers and half-sisters, only replying with curt sentences that explain absolutely nothing in-depth. However, she always listens to whatever is said, and juggles it within her mind before giving an answer. The only person she speaks with constantly is her "true sister", and is terribly protective of her, to the point where she gets physical with whomever dares to cause her "sister" discomfort. For whomever can deal with her pelutant attitude, they will be rewarded with a true friend, someone who can open up and share everything about them and expect the same in return. Break that trust, and her habits will spiral into a worse than before, shutting out everyone except the person who has been with her throughout her life.
Yuu, on the other hand, cannot speak at all. Or, if the ability of speech is available to her, she refuses to. Instead, she conveys her feelings through actions, such as butterfly-hands when she's intrigued, waves when discomforted, and hands clasped together when happy. She can even use sign language, usually when something needs to be explained when no one else is around. Not many understand her language of hands, mostly because of her "true sister" getting in the way, but those who do are usually surprised at how snarky she could be if spoken to. Despite all of her speaking deficiencies, Ai can somehow understand what Yuu tries to convey without fail, sometimes without Yuu having to do a single thing, creating some interesting one-sided conversations. Not much phases her compared to others, and keeps a calm, collective state even in the face of dire circumstances. When her "sister" isn't keeping everyone away, Yuu can be a silent friend who can keep company with anyone, even the worst kind of people.
The situation of Mina is a silently unspoken subject between the two, having been separated from her for more than 11 years of their lives. Strangely, she is one of the few things that give Yuu pause, and Ai a reason to speak talkatively, mostly in praise and positives.
Both sisters, no matter what the circumstances, have sworn to protect anyone they can, going out of their way to save civilians and their half-siblings even when it may put them in danger. The only reason Ai agreed to such a thing was Yuu's threat of intentionally stepping into danger without reason if she would not. While they do follow orders to the letter, if it involves breaking their vow, they are willing to fake losing communication in order to carry out their promise.
Yuu • Groups of people • Her fellow AGs • The Happiness of others • Water • Nature • Watching others train • The concept of a normal, human life
Dislikes: Ai • Seeing Yuu hurt • Oath-breakers • Liars, cheats, and the like • Insistent people (sometimes) • Gods and Fiends • Death without reason
Yuu • Unhappiness • Watching others fight and die • The scent of war (smoke, death, etc.) • Fighting with no cause • Fighting without care for others • Bland food • Sticks-in-the-mud (She's trying to get her "sister" to stop being like this. Its not going anywhere.)
Enhancements: *Mina was created to be the ultimate duelist, one who could fight a God one on one and come ontop. Ai and Yuu emulate her to the best of their abilities, fighting single, priority targets while other AG destroy the waves of enemies supporting the targets. • Vision - Ai and Yuu can see farther than the average human, with a whooping full mile of clear sight before bluring. Ai has a magnified sense of detail, giving her an easy time for pointing out weak spots and areas of attention. Yuu's eyes are sensitive to movement and action, even the faintest shimmer of the light is caught by her steady vision.
• Movement - Both of the Gemini Sisters can cover ground quickly, moving up to speeds of 50 mph when not under the effects of adrenaline and even faster under stress. Ai uses quick movements that allow access to all flanks of a target, while Yuu employs elongated movements to keep within Ai's blind spot and block anything that comes their way.
• Strength - The strength to fight a God on equal footing... is not what these two have individually. Rather they use what enhanced strength they DO have to compensate. Denser muscle fibers and skeletal structure along with general enhancements throughout her whole body allow Ai to use enough strength to crush steel alloy with only arm and hand strength, and throw a Fiend with full body movement. Strong but flexible joints and ligaments, coupled with a sturdy body in general gift Yuu with the ability to block at any angle, take hits, and still stand without much wear on her body.
• Reflexes - Both Ai and Yuu can act on a dime, reacting within 1/20th of a second to any threat upon their persons. Whether their bodies are fast enough to handle it, however, has yet to be seen against an enemy faster than the fastest Godslayer.
Weapon(s): • See: Abilities - Heaven's Armory
Abilities: • Convergence - Ai and Yuu, believe it or not, are one and the same. Two halves of the same whole, Mina, that have only a fifth of the original's power, and even less of her potential. They are forbidden from reuniting as Mina until they are ordered to, ontop of the regular limiters, as merely the power released from her awakening created a small crater eleven years previous. While as individuals, their collective rank is B. Mina's current rank, however, has not been disclosed to anyone. This invisible bond between the two has forced them into having connective abilities that can be both boons and banes.
°Spirit Link - The two "sisters" have an intrinsic "link" that ties them together having strange affects such as shaking, nausea, and other withdrawal symptoms when they are separated by more than fifty feet. If one is knocked out, the other will follow moments later, and the same is assumed for death. However, they each have the precognizant ability to understand what the other is thinking, as well as what they may be doing, allowing them to work in perfect tandem without fail.
• Specialized Training - As both parts of the whole named Mina, each sister takes a certain role of the original's power. Ai wields her sword, the offensive portion of combat, while Yuu completes it with her shield, the defensive. Ai has mastered multiple types of close range weaponry, easily changing her style of combat with each weapon. Yuu can efficiently position her shields to take as little damage as possible while still defending her objective entirely, diverting blows as easily as breathing. Their entire lives were trained upon this principle, and both of them can easily cover the other if they fall.
• Heaven's Armory - The Gemini Sisters can create constructs of pure, yellow light, weapons of battle that suit their needs and enemies. Despite the usually ethereal nature of light, these weapons are as physical as any weapon, and as strong as steel alloy. Enough to equalize the playing field against a normal Fiend. Each weapon created has a set size, and cannot be modified from its original make (Ai's broadsword is five feet long, while her javelin in four foot three, etc). The weapons are created and dismissed within moments, and should a weapon be broken for whatever reason, it can be mended in seconds so long as there is illumination.
°Heaven's Armory: Blade - Broadswords, Zweihanders, Nodachi, etc. °Heaven's Armory: Shield - Bucklers, Towers, Kites, etc. °Heaven's Armory: Point - Spears, Javelins, Halberds, etc.
• The Two Flashes of Heaven - This ability is limited to Ai only. By vibrating the molecules within her weapons and the air around her, Ai can use two different attacks that have destructive results. Using more than three a day, however, puts a massive strain on her person, and subsequently her "sister". Used only when nothing else damages her foes.
°The First Flash of Heaven: Laser Light Show - After a short delay, Ai's next attack splits into dozens of rays made of the same substance of her weapon, essentially emulating high-speed strikes as they strike in multiple directions onto the target. These strikes are no stronger than her regular blows, and only hit the same side Ai swings at. °The Second Flash of Heaven: Dove's Song - Her weapon emits a bright blue glow, and then swung to create a wave of pure plasma, vaporizing anything within ten feet of her strike. This sent distance is usually dodgeable by faster opponents if the target isn't held in place.
Heaven's Raid - This ability is limited to Yuu only. When the situation calls of it, Yuu can create a blindingly bright wave of physical light that both blinds and knocks back anything it comes into contact with. This ability can be used to propel Yuu across long distances if aimed at the ground beneath her feet, and can even carry a passenger should she employ her Tower Shield. Can be used much more frequently than the Flashes of Heaven, but becomes straining after multiple usages.
@Sarcelle Renard Hurray! You're doing fine, at least you haven't abandoned this RP :D
I always loved the concept of a tandem duo, especially with a sword and shield. I never had the chance of implementing one before, but now I can and still have some fun doing it :D
Yeah, their ability seems a bit too perfect for development. When I created them, I was racking my head for ways as to progress them through the RP, but I wasn't actually sure what to do in that respect. Lowering the durability of their Armory seems good, so I'll go with that :D In all honesty, I was just going to nerf their Convergence when they first use it (all that power, but no practice. 11 years is a long time to be apart), But this seems like a good nerd before then.
Mina is supposed to be this crazy strong duelist of the highest order, created to single handedly defeat a God on her own without interferance. When Ai and Yuu are able to Converge and become one, thdir progression will inevitably sky rocket, so relearning all of Mina's abilities after nearly a dozen years of misuse seems like a great way to keep them level with the other AG.
@DeathXtheXTree Definitely :D This looks like it's going to go wild when we get rolling. Hopefully we can get through without abandoning this idea. (I've had horrible memories of RPs being abandoned with no apparent reason. I'd hate for it to happen here)
@Rune_Alchemist I noticed we have two number sevens (Raiden and Ven) in the roster. Was this intentional, or a miscalculation?
I wasn't sure if Number One was available or not, so I made my CS on the presumption that is did. If not, then I can change it to eleven if you'd like.

The light, constant sound of tempered breathing filled Amma's ears, accompanying the soft crunch of leaves and branches underfoot as she raced across the treeline. She knew, if she focused, that the stamping of heavy paws copying her rhythm aways behind belonged to Canti. A small smile graced her features, comforted by the presence of the powerful predator. If anything went wrong, there wasn't much more threatening than a full-grown manticore within this side of Ceas. Hopefully, she could enlist the aid of the skyeels that traversed the riverbed and clouds above before she encountered the metal golems. Their lightning magic was swifter than her spear, and all the more deadly.
Strangely, there was another sound that slowly entered her senses. A rumbling, unfamiliar sound that reminded her of steel impacting stone. And it was getting louder, as if it was- The Stormborn's eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets as she understood her train of thought, throwing herself to the side just as a giant, grey beast of metal seemed to have suddenly appeared in her path, speeding by the area she had been moments earlier. Wiping sweat from her forehead after witnessing her close shave with death, another point of importance struck her mind as a terrible screeching followed by a loud "thud" sounded out in the woods seconds later.
She had a tail. A tail that had just been attacked by the strange, metal beast if her ears had not deceived her.
Frantically, she pulled herself up from the ground, breaking into a sprint the moment she regained her bearings towards the source of the twin noises. As she drew closer, voices became faintly audible, becoming clearer with each step she took. Taking advantage of the conversation, Amma stalked into the surrounding foliage, blending into the background seamlessly as her eyes landed upon four of the metal golems she was notified by, the metal beast from before... and the barely heaving body of her former ally.
She hadn't known Canti very well, having only met the manticore a few months ago as she settled within the wilderness of Norton. They crossed paths multiple times in the past, but had only made brief conversation. She deeply regretted not learning more about the beast before he died. Blight, she couldn't even give him a proper sendoff with the golems taking watch over his corpse. Some "Friend to All Creatures" she was, the sarcastic thought screwed into her brain.
With nothing else she could possibly do, Amma witnessed the arrival of another of the strange golems, overhearing each conversation clearly from her hiding place within the brushes. Their surprisingly accurate imitations of the human form and language unnerved the hermit, especially the mentions of "Teams", "mercenaries", and even conventional swearing. It was as if these golems were actually sentient, capable of thinking of other things besides simple commands and ideas.
Hopefully they would leave soon, and took their metal creature with them so she could transfer Canti's body where it belonged. And later, when what needed to be done was finished, she could find the golems again to interrogate why they had come.
This time, she would bring her Spear as well. Blood for blood, after all.
