"Nope, Jory is one of the guys that fought at Eterna." said Lupus to Adam. He hadn't seen him creep up though it was hard to imagine he so easily could. Lupus was still wearing the detective's trench-coat and fedora from his disguise in Eterna. He must have liked it or something, as he wore it a lot now. He flicked a spent cigarette across the room. "Name's Lupus, I was also there in that battle." he said. He didn't offer his hand to the man, he only pushed his sunglasses back up on the bridge of his nose. "Guess we are the only vets around anymore Jory. I hate having to get to know new people." he said. -
"You know a 1 percent chance is still a chance. Never liked gambling unless I had to though." Sinbad said with a chuckle. "Anyway I guess we best get moving, my feet grow restless, too much sitting, I hate sitting."

I would nuke it into the ground pretty quick. I don't mind if you do it in the OOCs of your RP for funsies, but there is no need for a thread just for that.

For the love of all that is holy please change the colour of the Blue text....I can't read it at all and it is giving me a headache lol.

It definitely felt too quiet. They had reached halfway down the field when that silence broke. A Warhorn sounded, breaking the silence hanging in the air. The army of this Ashnard, was raising an alarm for some reason, Did someone spot the party? However, it didn't seem like it after a few seconds. A small patrol of mixed races ran off down the path the gnoll had taken. They must have seen him flee his post and they were hunting him down. However, the raised activity in the camp wasn't good, it meant the chance of them being seen went up very high. Upon diving into the treeline, Jupiter placed a finger over her mouth, indicating the group to be silent. They would have to wait and hopefully go unnoticed. The camp was too active right now to move from the cover of the trees. Nemesis appeared walking on the ground, the bird "looked" around as it came to a stop. Jupiter patted her on the head smiling, but otherwise didn't make a noise.

Yea no, I don't want to give a person the power of a natural disaster....outright anyway. In the end templars maybe able to use magic, but they are not mages. Mages need room to have magic that just blows Templar Magic out of the water. ((kinda like how Priest Magic is more Powerful than that of Paladins. Their training in Fighting makes them not as adept in magic. This should be the case for Templars, even Water Templars you have stronger magic than the others relatively speaking.))

Personally, I try to get a feel for the character's personality through the way they look., I love Lucia, she is just looks really really freaking awesome. She just looks like somebody who is going to kick you ever living bum and do it in style. She kinda fits a personality I like a lot, which is those strong Female types. I get that impression from her, even if I am wrong, her design speaks it to me at least enough that. I also voted for Ari. I just like Ari's hair cause it looks pretty awesome. ((stupid reason but whatevs.)) the other characters don't appeal to me personally. Vero and Alice feel too generic for me too like them, they kinda have that I could be anyone feeling, and just come off as too much as Blank Slates to me. They look like a generic Protag...and I hate generic protags a lot. I want to play a character when I play a game, and Protags feel too neutral to me, like as if they don't have a personality of their own and are meant to have your own personality implanted onto them, it is one of those things that just peeves me off. ((I am not good with the Non-Binary pronouns.....as I am not used to having to use them sorry ahead of time if I make any slips and refer to Decibel as he etc ahead. Decibel to me, gives me a masculine vibe, as will probably be be explained later on. I will probably try to avoid wording it in a way where I need pronouns so this this ahead of time if it looks odd.)) Decibel has that kind of Noble air about their design to me. Like that, feeling that one is of royalty or something more than just a common folk. This archetype of character I personally don't click with. I tend to be more of a down to earth person, and can't play characters who have that feeling about them or exude it to me. It is something that just annoys me personally. Don't get me wrong Decibels design is awesome, and very strong, probably one of the best in the Reborn cast of protags. However, Decibel doesn't appeal to me due to the feeling I get from xyr's ((not sure if right....somebody feel free to correct me below XD. I know it is something like that...but not sure what lol.)) design. Like this is completely in my own head by the way....Ame might not have had the intent of any of them being like that, I just get vibes from characters that don't say anything or give us an indicator of their true character. Kuro...oh Kuro.....the second character I based on hair.....Kuros hair looks stupid....therefore I don't like him....Stupid reason? Probably....but it is my opinion, It has been SPOKEN!!!
-
Na, nothing that crazy would be able to happen most likely. The Only Huskarls of WInter that could have ever been powerful enough to do that would have been Snow when she was alive maybe. But I am kinda confused about what you are asking me lol.
-
Where did I ever say they got Tornado attacks? like I don't remember doing so.
-
By the way, it actually wouldn't. While yes they would get ranged attacks, they can't use them all the time. ((it isn't like they could throw sonic boom after sonic boom. It takes a lot of energy to do that and it would tire them quickly. A Ranger that uses a bow can pretty much fire arrows until they run out without really any draw backs.)) And they would never be powerful enough to remove all the air from an area, that would like kill them using all that energy no matter how powerful. ((in Fire's case....it would be better to be hit by the attack rather than nullifing in the case of it hitting one person. however they could say sacrifice them self to stop a giant fireball from killing an entire party.))
-
^ why the rep system on this forum annoys me lol. I know somebody read the above post....but then they had nothing to say afterwards. I trying to see if that makes sense, or fits well with the WInd Templars we have come to know. What do you guys think? ((basically...if I have a player base, I am going to ask them about changes to the world. This affects the world they are playing in, so I would love to at least hear what they think of a change I am going to make.))
-
The cutting with air currents can be achieved under the Thunder version of them. I included sonic booms, which, if in small and localized areas could be used to cut. ((think like a whip, they break the sound barrier, but now do it with the air current at the end of a sword. It would be like focusing that lose air into a whip and cracking them with it.)) It would be hard to focus that energy and use it to attack a buttload of times so it would remain balanced. But it would give them more than an ability or 2 that it could do. They could shout sending a dude flying, or even shout to cause there to be vibrations in the air nullifying Music or sound based attacks. The ascended powers of Templars are only able to be used that have surpassed their style, so they should be powerful. ((like your guys Templars might not get to the levels of which you could actually use them.)) I will definitely change the Fire Templars to Lightning, giving them more useable Ranged Attacks, and the ablitiy to coat their blades in soemthing other than Fire. However using it would be entirely different to using fire. ((Fire would be activated by passion whether that be Rage, etc... Lightning on the other hand would be activated by the absense of passion, or the reverse state of Fire. Calming your soul so much that the flames focus to a single point and become something else.)). Like with Earth, they can pull it from anywhere. But they must relaern their craft to apply it to gems. They have to follow the delicate pattern of which gems grow, or risk making something brittle that doesn't work. It is entirely different practice based on the same foundation. Water changing temps is already enough, because they must learn to use water in a liquid state, a gaseous state and a solid state, each having benefits and drawbacks. Wind should ahve something in the same vein. This is one reason I went with Thunder. The Wind they normally use doesn't have many attack function. It is delicate wind. It can increase their speed, propel small objects. ((includes moving an opponents sword enough to block a fatal blow, or moving an allies shield to block one as well.)) it can't be used to outright kill or inflict harm. Thunder, or hard wind, is Wind combined with the force of Sound. As such, they use yelling or someway to manipulate sound into the wind causing it to have different properties then the "delicate wind." "Hard Wind", would be used primarily for attacking, or forcing things to happen, where as "delicate wind" enhances things, or gently guides them to happen. Like one couldn't blast an opponent away with "delicate wind", but they could with "Hard Wind". I hope that makes sense....it does sound vague and like I am bullshitting things lol. TL:DR "Delicate Wind" = Finesse "Hard Wind" a.k.a Thunder = Force
-
Yea, but spoilers, that is kinda what the Horn of the Ages does. ((not exactly, but it would be a little lame if it did something a Wind Templar already could do lol.))
-
So, what if the Wind Templars get the power of Thunder? Like SOnic Booms, and jsut forceful wind. I think that is a very Warrior friendly thing to use. ((since it isn't straight up hucking lightning at dudes, which is more magicky.)) Like War-cries that boom like thunder. ((yes it is dragonborn-esque like skyrim....but uh, going to be frank they didn't come up with the idea.)) And it wouldn't be that over the top anyway....no breathing fire etc.
-
It has been awhile since stumped on something in World Building....gosh Dang it!!!
-
You see my predicament.
-
They can kinda already do that though...XD
-
Other changes I will be thinking about, to make things better. I am thinking of Earth Templars super power ((when they get very powerful)), to have control over gemstones rather than metal. The power over Metal is a bit too op, as you can turn anyone against you's armour and weapons against them ((as almost every kind of armour and weapon has metal somewhere in it's design)). Gemstones are still considered earth but would be more complex and harder to control as they would be forced to grow in their crystalline patterns. Therefore, I find this an interesting substitute. ((it would clearly be more powerful than regular Earth, but would be very hard to find good sources of it without carrying good gems, so it has built in weaknesses like being hard to obtain an amount your could say make a suit of armour with temporarily.)) Now the other Templars Powers I am also not sure about. WHile I like the idea of the Inflamto Cortodduim, it is kinda super similar to Berserker rage, and it kinda infringes on Berserkers a little too much for my taste....they would probably have lightning powers. ((like FIrebenders in Avatar could get.)) however I already gave that to Wind Templars. So If I wanted to give the Flame Templars Lightning I would need something new for Wind guys. I actually don't mind this, I originally wanted Wind Templars to be the more Hybrid, using a combination of Magic and fighting, however they are developing to be more of the Warrior type. This is what I had envisioned with the Fire Templars, however they are more becoming what I thought the Wind Templars would be. I would therefore like to give them the lightning alter on, but I don't know what to give to the Wind Templars. ((Inflamto Cortoddium will be just changed to mean The Fire that burns clean.)) however, what would I give to the Wind Templars for their super awesome thing later down the line? I like the Water Templars already, using their magic and bieng able to control the temperature of it. It makes them able to use steam and ice for other utility. They are very much the overly Mage version of the Templars, and this is awesome for them. Any thoughts? ((oh and i figured Super lol, I like that about Oarloff.))

The Awakened [OOC - Registrations Closed]
Raindrop Valkyrie replied to Flux's topic in Unofficial Official RP Club's General
I kinda feel like Viktor is sorta just been forgotten.....Like I haven't really got to do anything in like weeks now..... -
I should mention, it would be super bloody hard for Sigurd's legend to catch on due to the one about Snow by the way. She even invented the very style of fighting Sigurd uses. ((there is a reason in Sigurd's dream she really didn't get a long with him, he is so much like her it pisses her off lol.)). A Dual Bladed style that combines the fury of a raging tempest, and yet the elegance of a mid-summer breeze, that is the Twin Gale style, taught to all Wind Templars that use 2 weapons. (( I forget my in universe name for them....cause I am probably going to change the name of the order to more reflect the Viking-esque culture of Aurora.)) One name change I have is Huskarls of Winter with the individuals being known as Huskarls. ((a Huskarls being basically a bodyguard/personal guard of a rather important figure in Norse/viking culture. The one they are protecting? Well uh...Lady Aelia. ((sometimes known as the Lady of Winter Winds at least in Aurora, which is usually a land of eternal Winter, so they associate her with Winter even though she doesn't really have much to do with it. Kinda of how to them she is a Warrior God, though she also really isn't. Aelia is an anomaly in the Graterras Gods, as her people ((worshippers)) define her in the World of Graterras, she herself does not. She would be an Athena type god of Warriors though, strategy over rash boldness etc. [cause remember she is also the Goddess of Mind, she created the Mind that all creatures have a place for them to store the knowledge that Seeker gave to them at the beginning of time.])) I did mention that in the Elemental gods ((the 4 that have Templars.)) there is two types right? The Vessel Gods and the Fillers? The Vessel Gods, Aelia and Tectaniteus created the body and the mind, 2 shells to hold things. The Fillers, Pyron and Seeker created the Soul and Knowledge. These things filled the shells of the body and of the mind and animated them, gave them purpose. Oh boy will future events be interesting, you guys don't really even know what is coming, it will be fun once we get there lol.))
-
Yea, Odin was trying to cheer him up and say to him any weapon can be powerful no matter how much others may look down on it, it is the person using the weapon that makes it, not the weapon itself....((well unless the weapon is intelligent....but uh shhh....)). And he could still pick up another weapon later and use it, there just isn't a lot of weapon stores around the Shattered Hills that would carry such a fine weapon. They are a pretty simple down to earth people and most of the weapons around here would be based on farming tools or just tools in general. ((like hammers, war-scythes, and other converted farm weaponry.)) Do remember he is a bard by the way, he can play songs and stuff too. ((Like he can inspire his people to fight, he can use a few minor spells that have interesting effects. I recommend looking at spells in the 2nd Edition Manuals of D and D if you can find it. Heck I might post it here meself if I can find a good pdf of it. But those would give you good ideas of things you can do with Bard magic. [it would probs be around 1-3 at how powerful you guys are Bards have weaker speels than Wizards, but pull from the same pool of spells. They use music or whatever they tend to do as the catalyst to cast magic. [Lymeric Bards, Storytellers, etc....])) And the heros of the Shadowed Isles maybe referred to every now and again in timelines after it, however they will be stories, probably not exactly remembered by name. That is actually one goal of this campaign, to make storeis to use as lore from this time, since as time goes on tales get more and more insane and grow out of control, and I kinda would over if there where just straight up different versions of the tale. By the way I do have an idea for a future arc...however I can't say anything about it due to massive spoilers on the universe that will be revealed much later on in this storyline. Trust me...you guys are going to find out some rather Earth shattering things. ((like if me explaining the betrayal of the Elves to the Umbranari didn't show how taliored the past of this world was and the secrets that only the gods now anymore could be revealed. It is going to get super interesting that is for sure.))

"I think we should just get moving as fast as possible. I don't want to be standing on this longer than I have too." Jupiter said. And who could blame her, she was standing barefoot on Earth that devoured bodies....not one of the more pleasant feelings in the world one could imagine. Helze could hear Blue again. "Don't bother with that just go. Most of them are over here with me still trying to explain this stuff to me...though it is clear they don't really understand it. Other than a small amount of patrols, you should be in the clear." *** Jupiter looked back to the Patrol Gnoll she saw approaching them earlier...when she realized he was know running the opposite direction now. He was booking it for some reason. Maybe he shared the opinion of the Gnoll that got mauled earlier, and saw his chance to escape. Now they had theirs. "Guys Let's go, that Partol headed towards us just ran off, we got a gap and we won't get it back, we need to move now." She headed off towards the treeline. "Aye let's go," said Bjorn to the Old Farts. They started to make off towards the treeline, with Jupiter scanning the horizon for threats.
-
Well...it isn't active yet...so no...not yet....
-
No it is like quite literally just the ground you are standing on. If it was active it would be extending pseudopods out from the ground. ((usually covered in the forms of screaming souls. Like faces and stuff supes creepy.)) to grab you and devour you. When active any flesh it touches also starts to break down and wither, as long as it keeps contact. And you have no idea how far it stretches since it is not distinguishable from the normal ground if unactive. ((it it isn't much easier when it is active due to the way it attacks. and that it isn't a creature so to speak...it just acts like one. Since Tectaniteus is the god of body, Grave Earth is the opposite of Body, or that which destroys it. When active it devours the body of anything touching it, but it cannot devour souls, Minds and knowledge as those domains aren't part of Earth. Since it is contact with regular Earth almost all the time however, it power fades rather quickly causing to fall dormant and lose potency. It can't devour bodies that still have souls, minds or knowledge, and therefore can only eat corpses. However, if it eats enough and regains that ability. Basically, after most of the night, The Grave Earth power dispersed throughout the area. But the Large intake of bodies it ate, is why the one corpse made it gain so much energy, it is just on the cusp of returning to active state.)) The Dark Flame from Chapter 2 that held the Golems together, that destroyed souls or at least burned one's soul. The Earth Barrier Dru, put up saved more people than it killed, I just made it look like that wasn't the case. ((the heros would have survived the blast..they were strong of spirit, the militia, not so much...almost the entire force would have been killed if Dru didn't encase that thing in Earth.)) ((Pyron is the god of Soul by the way if you don't remember, therefore the Dark Flame burns away at souls. ((this may sound weird since it had souls affixed to it to achieve this effect....but uh, since those souls are in the creation of the Dark Fire...they become it, a whirling maelstrom of souls that devours other souls and adds them to it's ranks. By the way, this is the reason the Fire didn't burn the Bone Golem, it has no soul, and therefore is unaffected by it.))
