This RP is rated M due to an excessive amount of Gore, allowance of cursing, and 'touchy' themes. (Racism between either of the two primary species for example)

Legends. Stories scattered through time. Mankind has grown quite fond of recounting the exploits of heroes and villains, forgetting so easily that we are remnants, byproducts, of a forgotten past.

Man, born from dust, was strong, wise, and resourceful, but he was born into an unforgiving world. An inevitable darkness - creatures of destruction; the creatures of Grimm - set their sights on man and all of his creations. These forces clashed, and it seemed the darkness was intent on returning man's brief existence to the void.

However, even the smallest spark of hope is enough to ignite change, and in time, man's passion, resourcefulness, and ingenuity led them to the tools that would help even the odds. This power was appropriately named Dust.

Nature's wrath in hand, man lit their way through the darkness, and in the shadow's absence came strength, civilization, and most importantly, life.
But even the most brilliant lights eventually flicker and die, and when they are gone... darkness will return.
So you may prepare your guardians, build your monuments to a so-called 'free world', but take heed... there will be no victory in strength.

But perhaps victory is in the simpler things that you've long forgotten. Things that require a smaller, more honest soul.

Disclaimer: This is a parody RP set in the world of RWBY (http://rwby.wikia.com/wiki/RWBY_Wiki) created by a Mr. Monty Oum (http://rwby.wikia.com/wiki/Monty_Oum). Due to the show being in it's first season and soon to start it's second at the time of the creation of this thread the RP is a product of change.

Basic Plot: You are a new student at Beacon academy. Where you will train to fight creatures of Grimm (http://rwby.wikia.com/wiki/Grimm), and other threats to Humanity (http://rwby.wikia.com/wiki/Human) (and Faunus (http://rwby.wikia.com/wiki/Faunus))

Name: Graxis Blackflame
Gender: M
Are you Faunus? Not that he knows of.
Appearance:
Spoiler: http://www.mrwallpaper.com/wallpapers/fantasy-warrior.jpg
On the rare occasions he reveals any part of himself Graxis's skin is covered in scars and old burn marks.

Personality: Quiet when he's resting. Aggressive when he's not. Graxis never liked the idea of teamwork, especially when it evolves someone having his back. Although he's only truly bothersome about it when it doesn't hurt their chances of survival. He doesn't trust a great deal of people, and refuses to hide his intense hatred of pure Dust users. Despite his bull-headed traits that deem him a brute. He's a sucker for a good book, and is very rather fond of animals, never losing his temper with either. Also despite not enjoying the prospect of teamwork, he's quick to put himself in harms way for his team or others.

Likes: Books, Fighting, alone time, animals.

Dislikes: Dust, having a team, bullying (Not his own) being talked too, being touched, being with people, disappointing Mr. Brill.
Semblance type: Pressure; Graxis is able to increase, and only increase the force of pressure surrounding him. This ranges from bullets, to swords, and air, to water. The affects fade over time.

Weapon: Frostbane- A decorated war cleaver that doubles as a flamethrower. Fairly heavy in weight, causing Graxis to be sluggish in a large brawl.

Background: Graxis comes from a rather abusive family. Which explains the scars and his usual mood rather greatly. He was found by his surrogate father at the age of fourteen and placed in Signal, where he trained to become something better then a common thug. While Graxis wasn't particularly keen on breaking his thuggish habits, there was a way his actions were kept in check. The man bribed him with books. It didn't matter what they were about, heroes, monsters. Talking animals, or romance, Graxis loved reading them. Eventually calming down his inner rage under Mr. Brill's guidance.

Despite his improving attitude, Graxis was still aggressive to everyone. Quelled only for hours at a time by a couple hundred pages eventually his distrust for others came out full force. From training to merely walking down the hallway, no one cared for his attitude, and he never cared for them. Eventually this led to the creation of Frostbane. A wrathful blade as unwanted as it's bearer. He was accepted into Beacon this year and while he hoped to succeed, he's been having trouble adjusting to the idea of a team.
Theme song: Savior (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oB6tgbyVGc)
Extra: He will never take off his mask willingly.

Are you Faunus? : umm no
Personality: Generally aloof and good natured. Rafe hates being too serious in any setting that doesn't require it and will spend most of his time in a pub if he has his way.
Likes: Beer, meat, and a good tale.
Dislikes: Overly serious types, spoiled moods and pointless posturing.
Semblance type: perception, Rafe has trained himself to be aware of everything around him. Though he is by no means Omnipresent he is accutley aware to anything approaching or directly threatening him.
Weapon: Dustblade, a sword especially shaped for duels housing a rotating cylinder holding dust crystals to enchant the blade.
Background: One of the few Hunters to venture into the heart of the Grimms territory and return alive. Rafe spends most of his time in the company of other veterans and making lighthearted jokes about the younger generation and their youthful enthusiasm.
His class was one of the best Beacon produced, Rafe and his team were formidable and well balanced by all appearances however in truth he was surprised they ever pulled together. after becoming a Hunter Rafe kept traveling only returning to a hold to rest or resupply while reporting and spreading exaggerated tales over a few pints. Though he prefers to keep traveling and exploring he received a personal letter from Ozpin requesting him to teach the next group of Hunters and Huntresses at Beacon. Never having been rooted to one spot for so long Rafe considered declining but felt he did owe a small amount of loyalty to Ozpin and so He returned to Beacon to help instruct the students in combat against the Grimm.

Gender: Female

Appearance:
http://ip1.anime-pictures.net/jvwall_images/127/1275ccd84bd3b70bb01c20cd677366ea_bp.jpg

http://ip1.anime-pictures.net/jvwall_images/94e/94efff448782a4dd60274fc4e976e443_bp.jpg


5'7" in height and usually wearing her sweats, which are basically a set of white & blue windbreaker jacket and pants with a pair of sneakers. Though whenever she relaxing, Kathryn would wear plain blue jeans and a yellow or white t-shirt. Sometimes a black hoodie in case it cold and she need to get warm.

Are you Faunus?: Nope

Personality: Kathyrn has a mix personality, that is basically somewhat joyful child-like or immature behavior. Sometime even lazy, which Corinna can strongly agree. Though she can also be quite stubborn about things, especially when it comes to wearing any fancy clothing. She is also very strict when it came to training and never being able to hold back, fortunately she spar without fully using Lyn Spir. And now that she became Beacon's newest teacher, Kathyrn is going to be quite strict with her teaching. At lest she in a good enough mood to have a relaxing time instead of hard training courses.

Likes: Music, Practicing/training, watching television, and eating tasty snacks (which are burn off by training).

Dislikes: Wearing ANYTHING formal, fancy stuck-up people, bullying, and liars.

Semblance type: Kathryn is gifted with extraordinary strength, adding her training to be as agile as possible. Makes her a formidable opponent to anyone, along with making her be unhindered by Lyn Spir's weight.

Weapon: Lyn Spir (lee-an speer)
http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120823183649/superrobotwars/images/7/79/Zankantou_MK.III.png
http://img3.ak.crunchyroll.com/i/spire1/05192008/8/8/7/0/8870a51ba3dea0_full.jpg

Lyn Spir, "Lightning Spire" in Norwegian. Is a rather large sword, about as big as her...plus the hilt. Its functions triggered through pressure switch built into the pommel, when press up toward the hilt. Lyn Spir is capable of either sending blasts of electrical energy or create a stable beam to increase it reach.

Both functions are powered by yellow Dust that are kept in two canisters within the guard, the blade opens by two halves to reveal it cannon kept inside the hilt that extend afterwards. That then generate electricity for Kathryn's "Thunder Blast", which she proudly named. Along with her "Lightning Blade" that is formed by Lyn Spir expanding the blade instead, allowing electrical energy to shoot out as it forms a sparking yellow blade.

Backgrounds: Kathryn's life started out like everyone else, if you're a daughter of an Huntsman that is. Kathryn is the youngest in her family, what left of it at least as her mother died giving birth to her. Leaving her father, Arthur, to take care of his two daughters. Kathryn and her older sister Corinna, though it was mostly Corinna who took care of them and Arthur's sister. Who come over to watch the two whenever he goes out for Huntsman business, despite how his sister feels about it. Arthur's girls didn't mind it as they find it amazing of what he does. Kathryn especially as she once declare that she'll be best Huntress, which appear to be possible as she attended at Signal Academy with Corinna. Though she didn't do well with the educational stuff without Corinna's help, but was best combatant in the school. Especially when she discovered her Semblance of being extremely strong.

When the day came for the two sister of graduating, they were approach by a huntsman a hour from the ceremony. Who told them of their father's unfortunate fate. Telling them that their father was found dead with a Death Stalker, which was also found dead as well. It was discovered that Arthur died from being stung by it and thus was poisoned by the Grimm, only to finish the Grimm before finally succumbing to the poison. After being told of this, things changed for the two. Kathryn became determine to fulfill her promise in becoming a Huntress, while Corinna strongly refuse. Deciding to work on becoming one of Signal Academy's teachers instead, after being convince by one of her favorite teachers.

After burying their father in Beacon Academy's graveyard, Kathryn stayed behind as she made her farewells with Corinna. Then took on the initiation, finishing with killing a Death Stalker. Preventing it from killing someone, who soon became her teammate. After completing the initiation. Kathryn became the leader of team KSDR (CruSaDeR), which strangely consisted of mostly boys beside her. Two of them having no problem being led by her, except for one who ended up be put to his place after beating him in hand to hand combat...with one hand tied behind her back. Since then, Kathryn did her best to be a good leader. While ignoring any of Samuel and Derek's sad pick-up lines, stating she not one for relationship. Mainly because she once had a boyfriend who broke her heart during her years back at Signal Academy, though she got some payback by breaking his nose. which was fortunate for him as she been working on self-control with her Semblance.

The four of them did their best to work together, watching each other backs and so forth. Some point in time they grew close, enough to make Kathryn see the three boys as brothers. Even giving them nicknames to tease them, such as Smarty-Pants for Raphael.

Long after graduating from Beacon Academy, Kathyrn and her friends went out to stop a Beowolves attack on a small town. Where she discovered a young Faunus boy being chased by one of them, and after saving him, she found out that his family were gone. Killed by some of the Grimms, feeling sorry for the boy, who she soon learn his name was Lowell. Took him to her sister, Corinna, remembering how depress Corinna was after finding out her child was a still born. Along with the divorce with her husband, who had a restraining order on Kathryn after breaking his arm before the divorce was final. Corinna was both a mix of gratitude and sadness, mainly for the boy's lost. Since the adoption was final with Kathryn as his guardian, even helping out with things as she take him along while Corinna was teaching at Signal Academy. And now she heading to Beacon Academy with her "nephew" and soon-to-be student, along with everyone else. After agreeing to Ozbin's offer of having her teach there for combat/strategic.

Extra: Kathryn make monthly visits to Arthur Rosada's grave, hers and Corinna's father. Replacing his grave's flower with fresh new ones, hand pick by Corinna.

Name: Jace Treemor
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: http://static.desktopnexus.com/thumbnails/610679-bigthumbnail.jpg#anime%20male%20warrior%20450x281
Imagine him with a blue jacket as well. The eye patch is there also.
Are you Faunus? : No
Personality: Jace is extremely sociable, but prefers his own space at times. He will try and make friends when he can, and those he does make he is very loyal to them. Even those who are mean he tries to give them a second chance. It is very hard to make Jace mad, and when you do you know you have messed up.

When he is by himself he is either reading or training. Jace considers himself a professional procrastinator and almost never studies.

Likes: Weapons, Grimm creatures, books, history, friends, sparring/fighting, music
Dislikes: School as a whole, bullies, racists (towards Faunus)
Semblance: Jace is able to use his Semblance to enter a bullet-time like state. This take much out of him, but in this state he is able greatly increase his reflexes.

Weapon: Boombox - Boombox is a warhammer with blue and purple lines on the sides of it. It is about five feet in height and weighs about 30 pounds. In this form Boombox cannot do much besides, well, be a hammer!

In Boomboxes second form it become a cannon-like weapon. It uses purple and blue Dust as ammo for its shots. When Boombox fires, it creates sound waves that have an earthquake-like effect. There are two dials on either side of it. One increases or weakens the sound waves and the other spreads or concentrates the sound waves.

Background: Jace was the son of a weapons maker that made specialized weapons for heroes. He was considered one of the best makers in the city and made them for a cheap price. IT didn't take long before Jace also found an interest in weapon making as well. His father told him that if he learned how to fight, and if he made his own design, he would help him make his weapon.

After five years of training and making his weapon, he finally had it. Due to its specialization, he named it Boombox. It took a while before he learned how to control it, even taking the eyesight of his left eye, but eventually he got the hang of it. Jace's father recommended him to go to Beacon Academy to train to become a hero. How could anyone refuse?

Well, hopefully this one doesn't fall apart. And here's my CS.

Name: Wei Raynkin

Age: 17

Gender: female

Appearance:
Her hair is set in a short pixie cut, with blonde hair and black highlights at the tips. She has storm gray with pale skin, showing slight hints at a tan. From the top to bottom, Wei wears a gray cowboy hat, with a pair of aviator sunglasses as well. He shirt is a leather vest, colored gray, with a black shirt underneath it. She wears cargo pants the fade to gray as you go up, so it starts out gray at her hips and goes to black at her ankles, which is covered by her boots, a black leather. On her hips are two holsters for Mercy and Redemption, and pouches on her belt for lots of ammo.

Are you Faunus? : no

Personality: a balance between 'never speaks always stoic' and 'party girl'. She'll talk if someone starts a conversation, or is something important needs to be said, but other than that, she doesn't speak much. She'll work with a team though.

Likes: Weapons, hunting Grimm, cleaning her weapons, music

Dislikes: clubs, dancing, bright lights

Semblance: Perception. Increased adrenaline flow allows for a time dilation effect, letting Wei hit targets easier, or detect threats and react quickly. prolonged use is dangerous, as it drains both Aura and what the body makes normally, so it is used in quick bursts. Wei has dubbed it 'Dead-Eye' due to how accurate it makes her shots when in use.

Weapon: The Collapsible Sword Revolvers(CSRs) are what the name says. The grip doubles as the handle, and leans back a bit more when in Sword mode. The blade is hollow, and folds downward, til it surrounds the barrel, allowing for heavy caliber ammo to be used. The hilt collapses in to show the revolver portion, and to form the hammer as well. Wei has two, one black, one white. The black one is Redemption, the White one Mercy

Background: Trained to be a weapon-smith, Wei Raynkin had only ever gotten one set of weapons created, the CSRs, before her town was attacked by Grimm. Being only 14 at the time, Wei fought as best she could, which wasn't all that great, having never really used a sword or revolver before hand.

Her friends and family dead, the village was discovered by a pair of passing Hunters who rescued Wei, getting her all the way to Atlas before leaving her there in an orphanage. Wei didn't didn't stay long, just there long enough to steal some Lien from the people running the home and then left. She taught herself how to use her weapons, and made a name for herself as a mercenary. When she was old enough to apply for Beacon, she sent in an application, her Merc work under the section of 'previous combat education'.

Theme song: Redemption Blues - Miracle of Sound

Extra: is plagued by nightmares from the night she lost her town was attacked by Grimm from time to time. She wakes up screaming and unable to sleep the rest of the night. Effects her attitude the following day.

However after he turned five Iejir was taken out of the orphanage to the Kothar compound. One of their scouts had witnessed one of his fights and had been impressed with his instinctual fighting ability.
It was there that Iejir learned about sword pay and fighting the Grimm, since the Kothar were an unofficial group however, Iejir was forced to enroll at Beacon to become a legally recognized hunter.

Shifted Auras to read as Semblance

Drakkon
02-21-2014, 08:46 PM
.... I'm gonna say right now that we should probably have more detail in Aura XD.

Also gonna add I will not accept generic terms such as "Defensive" and "Offensive" for Aura...

IejirKothar
02-21-2014, 08:47 PM
I was a bit confused on that seeing as the link only had those types of terms.

so we're just going with what we did last time and having the SEMBLENCE there.

Thelonewanderer
02-21-2014, 08:53 PM
So, was mine ok for Aura for do i need to add more?

Drakkon
02-21-2014, 08:53 PM
To be honest I see Semblance and Aura as sort of the same thing given that it's both that innate personal power. Semblance is the specific way of putting it.

I'd have explained that if my space bar hadn't started acting up actually -.-

IejirKothar
02-21-2014, 08:54 PM
damn you space bar

wait, stayed long enough to get some Lien? Either there's some inuendo or someone didn't proofread XD

02-21-2014, 09:00 PM
uuuuh shit was that me or....

Lien is money presumably. And yes, it's probably an inuendo.

EDIT: Speaking of. Iejir, I should have fixed the Aura/Semblance thing.

02-21-2014, 09:01 PM
So I am editing my CS right now, and I should probably ask right now. I know you don't just want the generic Offense and Defense, so do you want us to explain what they do in detail or...

02-21-2014, 09:06 PM
damn it. Not meant as an inuendo. did not proofread. going to edit that.

IejirKothar
02-21-2014, 09:07 PM
For claritys sake what I read on Aura was that it served each differnt listed aspect in some form or fashion.
The Semblance was unique to the individual or to their training.

Drakkon
02-21-2014, 09:08 PM
I changed it to Semblance which is more.......-starts pounding the fucking keyboard!-

It's more specific Semblance. So read up on that and explain what your character can do. wtf spacebar.

Drakkon
02-21-2014, 09:46 PM
I'm going to take a shower, I'll add the acceptants when I get back.

Iejir for your teacher man.. It's sort of bothering me that Beacon got it's awesome reputation in the ten years his bio implies apart from that I like him. As for Iejir the orphan I like him XD.

Llama, I see a bit of a contradiction between boombox and your Semblance. Usually a weapon uses Dust or Semblance for a mystic effect.. a character in RWBY creates a similar effect (shockwaves) when he attacks.. but it's believed to be because of his aura/semblance rather then dust. So going off that I'd say your Semblance should match the weapon before I accept you.
..... I'm also wondering how effective an earth quake caused by a sword actually is. Dial or no, that seems to be more a warhammer trait.

Lone, I like Wei I see little problem with her.

Bionicllama
02-21-2014, 09:53 PM
Sorry, should have been more specific. The shock waves only come out when it is in its cannon form. The dial also only has any affect when it is in its cannon form. Though, I do like the sound of a warhammer!

heeerrreee Lowell!

Name: Lowell Wolfgang

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Appearance:
Lowell wears silver color plates over his white long-sleeve shirt, along with a few more strapped onto his right forearm and thighs over his blue-ish grey jeans. Lowell wears a gauntlet on his left hand, which he use the plated cylinder (2 and half inch thick, despite being hollow inside) over his forearm as a improvise sheild and to store his chains (Gleipnir) which allow him to fire it with a special launching mechanism fitted into it. He also wear lightly plated black boots with three small spikes on the toe, which give off the appearance of claws(or nails). The metal is light and strong, allowing Lowell to be quick and agile while still getting protection.
http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/278/6/f/mascot___balfonn_by_mimirin-d5guhlc.jpg

Are you Faunus?: Yes

Personality: Lowell is a bit of the quiet type, rarely speaks at lest spoken too. Rarely smile even. However, he'll always shout out warnings and such during fights. Since he doesn't want anyone getting hurt, at lest they're the bad guys. Who he wouldn't care if they get hurt. Although, if ever the chance he has someone he could considered a friend(s), he'll most likely be comfortable enough to be social. Despite those, Lowell will be protective of others, doing his best to help someone in need as he'll never stand such hostility being done too another. However, during combat he'll sometime be rather "cold" too Grimms he may encounter. This might be due too what had happen to him in the past. Lowell would quickly end them the best he could in the most brutal way possible, though that slowly changed as he slowly cease killing them like that. Especially when he fighting along with others and have to work with them.

Likes: Doing maintence on his gear, whittling small blocks of wood, and playing chess.

Dislikes: Grimms, people being put into harms way, and unkind acts toward Faunus.

Semblance type: Channeling, a form of ability that allow someone to form semi-solid objects out of energy or other possible methods through the help of Dust. While also allow a person to channle their Aura into their limbs, mainly arms and legs, making the muscle much stronger for a brief moment as it be a great strain too their muscle of that limb. This process would make a person be stronger or faster through either their arms or legs, though would not make them "harden" so a knife could still pierce into the person's arm. Lowell uses this ability to generate bolts for Fenrir's amunition, as well as generating a surge of energy along its blade. Giving it a extra "kick" to his strikes, such as making the blade be engulf with fire or become cover in frost and producing white vapors(or whatever) from the conflicting temperture

Weapon(s): Lowell wields a set of equipment, two of them are Fenrir and Gleipnir, which are a custom-made sword and a specially forge chain. Along with a gauntlet that he use as a shield-like vambrace and to carry Gleipnir within itself. Each three items all depict from the Norse mythology of Fenrir, that Corinna tends to tell him during the early years after losing his home.


A blade curving to form three points, one being the tip as it gleam from the full moon's light shinning onto it. The sword makes metallic clicks as the blade open, shooting out as it rolls with the faint sounds of gears and wheels turning. Before locking in place as it give the shape of a crossbow, resting onto a armored hand. It wielder angle it, aiming his weapon as it began to emit a cyan-color glow. That soon become flying from the crossbow's maw, cutting through the air as it soars downward. Leaving a dissipating dusty cyan tail, almost appearing to be leaving behind snowflakes as it descend. Only to stop as it struck a unfortunate Beowolf, causing it to howl in pain as its burst into a icy blooming flower. Along with a soft shower of snowflakes, mildly covering the grassy ground with a thin layer of snow. Sparkling from the moonlight shinning onto it, along with the icy flower that took the Beowolf place.

A special-made sword he created while attending at Signal, that can be considered as The DESC (Dust-Empowered Sword Crossbow). Fenrir is capable of spliting apart it blade and position them into being the crossbow's split limb, while the base/foregrip open up to give the appearance of a foregrip. That holds a cylinder-shaped cartridge, which can hold three different types of Dust in three separate chambers. That Lowell can changed through a trigger placed on the foregrip. He usually uses red, cyan, and yellow color Dust primarily. During it transformation, the hilt open up to form the stock with a special grip allowing Lowell too use his semblence of Channeling, along with it being a form of trigger for firing.

Thus creating magically form bolts for Fenrir while in its crossbow mode, each bolt display a faint glow of chosen color of Dust. That give off the elemental attribute of that color, which is ice, fire, and lightning (from what i've read on rwby's wiki). Lowell can also still be able to rotate the cylinder without being in the second mode, which is done by pressing down on a trigger at the guard. Allowing him to choose which Dust to use and then began generating in the same form of energy into the blade and that gives off a similar effect when he stabbed or slashed someone. Although, Lowell only does that when fighting a Grimm as it would cause serious harm to a person. This process also allow Lowell to preform sword-based attacks, since the energy will discharged once the blade had struck someone/something(like the ground or floor).


A special forge chain, that stretch out too at least 10 meters long. Like the myth, the chain was made to be very strong and durable. Thus making it nearly impossible to break them, without having the strength that best a Ursa's. It also give off a silver-like color, while appearing a little thin than a average linked chains. Which made it hard to believe it really that strong, but Fenrir thought the 'real' Gleipnir wasn't strong too, now he regretting it for letting the gods to use it on him.

Lowell keep it stored inside the cylinder-shaped vambrace of his gauntlet, which he named Hand of Tyr. Inside it is an special spool, that automatically unwound whenever he triggered it too fired the metal ball. About 2 and half inch diameter. Beside being incredibly strong and almost unbreakable, it doesn't have any other specialty. Besides being useful for combating a Grimm or someone else.

A gauntlet with a cylinder-shape vambrace, which double as a carrier for Gleipnir within it spool. The vambrace is layered with triangular plates that start from a rhombus-shape top plate, each pointing toward his hand and his elbow. Each plate is mildly decorated with a fancy Norse theme design. Underneath the hand part of the gauntlet, is a hole that Gleipnir goes in and out from. A shiny silver color ball is the part that visible till it is launched and the chain it attached too become seeable. The hand portion, which is a armored black leather glove, has similar color plates fitted onto the top part of the glove. That would give anyone a nice bruise if struck by that hand from Lowell.


Bio: Lowell was living a normal life, at least for a Faunus, as him and his family kept themselves isolated from a nearby small town. Though the townspeople aren't that discriminating toward them, which is likely due too how friendly they are too them and maybe how far off they are from town. However, on Lowell's 12th Birthday. Things went down hill for both Lowell's family and the townsfolk as a large pack of Beowolf came rushing out of the forest. Attacking Lowell home first as it was closer too the forest, after they had dealt with the house. The pack attacked the town and nearly destroyed it before a few Huntsmen and a Huntress manage to arrive in time to stop them. The Huntress that was with the group also saved Lowell from one of them as he had been chased from his home by one of the Beowolves, then left him too the hands of her sister Corinna Rosada as she been wanting a child to take care of. She also happen to be one of Signal's teachers, and had also helped Lowell fit in during his years in Signal Academy. Especially when he became somewhat of a mute, likely due to what he had seen during the Beowolves attack.

Since then he been a loner, never getting close too the kids. Especially when their parents would get angry with them for doing so, thus they kept their distant from Lowell. Which made him grew close to Corinna, who he will always call Miss Rosada, as she wasn't his real mother and she in turn accepted that fact. Though he didn't have a choice with Corinna's sister, Kathryn, who made sure Lowell address her as his aunt. When things gotten settled for the two, Lowell began attending at Signal. Wanting closure and the chance to prevent what he had to go through from happening too others. During his time attending at Signal Academy, Lowell had a hard time fitting in due to his heritage of being a Faunus. Especially when most of the students were quite discriminating toward him, along with a few of the teachers. Except for his "foster parent" Corinna Rosada, who had took the time too give extra training and education. Even a few of the more equally-minded teachers help out as well for him. Lowell even got more comfortable and started being social, at least enough that he'll sometime speak a few words and answer questions.

Some point during his training courses, Lowell discovered his ability or Semblance. Discovering that he could channel his aura, from what he was told, into either his limbs for a brief moment or create a form of semi-solid energy through the help of Dust. Like his bolts for Fenrir's Crossbow mode or generate a small surge of energy to make his strikes more powerful. This ability was worked on during the remaining years of being in the Academy, along with private sessions with his aunt Kathryn. Which were quite brutal as she never hold back, at least enough to not use her sword full potential. Granted it might've destroy Corinna's house if she had, then she'll be facing her sister's wrath. So now Lowell boarded the Air Ship that'll take him and every other potential students too Beacon Academy.

Extra: Fenrir can also be use like a double-blade axe while in its crossbow mode, this is usually when he doesn't have time to shift it back too its sword mode. Same goes with his chain if ever disarmed, since you can't disarm him of it without literally disarming him.

Race: Faunus
Appearance:
http://th00.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2013/226/a/e/bunnygirl_jariya_by_shidabeeda-d6i2s0e.png

http://i1179.photobucket.com/albums/x384/gothic-hugz/Anime/timecannoterase.jpg

Semblance: Dust manipulation - The ability to manipulate the power of dust without having to use glyphs. While it is easier to use Glyphs, manipulating dust directly has a more powerful effect.

Personality:
She still suffers from PTSD over losing her team mates. She's afraid to get close to anyone now, fearing she'd lose them as well. Before all this happened she was your happy and bubbly student at Beacon, living without a care. Now she wanders just a shell of her former self, her interactions with others usually a facade.

Weapon of choice: A large staff, a defensive weapon, that can transform into one of two guns. It can become a mini gun or a rocket launcher. She prefers to keep it in staff form to manipulate Dust most effectively. If she has to use a gun she'll use the mini gun because it doesn't use use as much dust as the rocket launcher. The rocket launcher is rarely used because each shot uses up a lot of dust in her weapon.

Bio:
Gwen has had a hard life. Being a faunus has left her discriminated against. She was a member of the White Fang when it was a peaceful protest movement, but when the leader switched leaders and became violent she decided to leave the group. Soon she decided that she'd follow the path of a huntress to rise above the discrimination of her people and prove they are not to be stepped upon like trash.

Her first year at beacon ended prematurely. She had the luck to get a group who's initials spelled out MIRG, Mirage. However when you turned it backwards you got GRIM, and people associated their group with the monsters they faced because of Gwen being a faunus. Midway through her first year her team fell upon tragedy in a field exercise against the Grimm. Gwen was the only survivor and even then she had to be hospitalized for the rest of the year. Not just because of her physical injuries, but the mental ones as well. She had watched her teammates get butchered by the Grimm one by one and it affected her hard. It was questionable if she would recover till one day, she got up out of bed on her own. She grabbed a heirloom from each of her former teammates and put them on before saying she was returning to school.

There's Gwen's sheet. if there is anything that needs to be patched up about it it'll have to wait till tomorrow afternoon as I can't be arsed to do it right now.

Here, I finished my CS c:

Name: Teale Laluru
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Likes: Cute things, food
Dislikes: Work, people with bad personalities
Appearance: [x] (http://ae-rie.deviantart.com/art/Wang-Xiuying-415627898?q=gallery%3Aae-rie%2F9886598&qo=7)

Personality: Teale is, for the most part, cheerful and lively, and her constant energy and enthusiasm is often mistaken as naivety. Despite being a young adult, Teale has a habit of playfully whining or complaining when something unfavorable happens, much like a child. However, then the situation calls for it, Teale proves to be very reliable and mature with adept leadership ability. Since she prefers not to take life and miscellaneous matters very seriously, she herself is rarely serious either, unless necessary.

Background: Teale was born into a relatively normal family, the second child of a Huntsman and regular school teacher. Having lost an older brother at the age of seven, her desperate parents because overly protective of her and seldom allowed her out of the house. Her mother homeschooled her, and her parents got her anything she wanted from outside of home. Teale was pretty much a prisoner confined in her own home by her own parents. She had attempted to escape, but she never got any farther than her front porch. After a few attempts, Teale gave up and didn’t find escaping to be worth the brutal punishments she received afterwards for doing so.

A few years passed, and her parents agreed that she should learn how to fight for her own safety. She was ten years old when her father began training her in fighting, self defense, and taught her about aura, semblance and Dust. Slowly and gradually, she was allowed outside but only with her father. She first began training in the backyard, and began venturing to places with wider areas once she was learning how to use dust and long-range weapons. Hunting for Grimm was something she rarely had the chance to do, but always looked forward to it whenever her father planned it. Teale displayed skills towards speed and stealth early in her training and became an excellent Huntswoman in a short few years. However, she knew she couldn’t be confined to her home any longer. She had greater aspirations and wanted to attend Beacon Academy to hone her skills some more and become one of the best. Leaving behind a letter, Teale escaped her prison. At first, her parents were outraged, but eventually began to accept that Teale was growing up, and couldn’t be kept under a shell for so long.

Semblance type: Teale’s unique semblance is extreme speed. She is able to move so quickly it seems as if she teleported from one place to another in a mere second.
Weapon: Teale’s weapon is a large sword/pistol hybrid. It’s main function is a large sword, with a height greater than Teale herself, that can split into dual swords that may be attached at the hilt to form a double ended spear sort of thing, or linked together by a string on the hilts. The weapon can fire both energy blasts and bullets, but it must be in gun form to be able to shoot bullets. In gun form, the size of the blades reduce and the hilt lengthens into barrels.

Though whenever she relaxing, Kathryn would wear plain blue jeans and a yellow or white t-shirt. Sometimes a black hoodie in case it cold and she need to get warm.

Are you Faunus?: Nope, but my nephew is.

Personality: Kathyrn has a mix personality, that is basically somewhat joyful child-like or immature behavior. Sometime even lazy, which Corinna can strongly agree. Though she can also be quite stubborn about things, especially when it comes to wearing any fancy clothing. She is also very strict when it came to training and never being able to hold back, fortunately she spar without fully using Lyn Spir. And now that she became Beacon's newest teacher, Kathyrn is going to be quite strict with her teaching. At lest she in a good enough mood to have a relaxing time instead of hard training courses.

Likes: Music, Practicing/training, watching television, and eating tasty snacks (which are burn off by training).

Dislikes: Wearing ANYTHING formal, fancy stuck-up people, bullying, and liars.

Semblance type: Kathryn is gifted with extraordinary strength, adding her training to be as agile as possible. Makes her a formidable opponent to anyone, along with making her be unhindered by Lyn Spir's weight.

Weapon: Lyn Spir (lee-an speer)

Lyn Spir, "Lightning Spire" in Norwegian. Is a rather large sword, about as big as her...plus the hilt. Its functions triggered through pressure switch built into the pommel, when press up toward the hilt. Lyn Spir is capable of either sending blasts of electrical energy or create a stable beam to increase it reach.

Both functions are powered by yellow Dust that are kept in two canisters within the guard, the blade opens by two halves to reveal it cannon kept inside the hilt that extend afterwards. That then generate electricity for Kathryn's "Thunder Blast", which she proudly named. Along with her "Lightning Blade" that is formed by Lyn Spir expeanding the blade instead, allowing electrical energy to shoot out as it forms a sparking yellow blade.

Backgrounds: Kathryn's life started out like everyone else, if you're a daughter of an Huntsman that is. Kathryn is the youngest in her family, what left of it at least as her mother died giving birth to her. Leaving her father, Arthur, to take care of his two daughters. Kathryn and her older sister Corinna, though it was mostly Corinna who took care of them and Arthur's sister. Who come over to watch the two whenever he goes out for Huntsman business, despite how his sister feels about it. Arthur's girls didn't mind it as they find it amazing of what he does. Kathryn especially as she once declare that she'll be best Huntress, which appear to be possible as she attended at Signal Academy with Corinna. Though she didn't do well with the educational stuff without Corinna's help, but was best combatant in the school. Especially when she discovered her Semblance of being extremely strong.

When the day came for the two sister of graduating, they were approuch by a huntsman a hour from the ceremony. Who told them of their father's unforunate fate. Telling them that their father was found dead with a Death Stalker, which was also found dead as well. It was discovered that Arthur died from being stung by it and thus was poisoned by the Grimm, only to finish the Grimm before finally succumbing to the poison. After being told of this, things changed for the two. Kathryn became determine to fulfill her promise in becoming a Huntress, while Corinna strongly refuse. Deciding to work on becoming one of Signal Academy's teachers instead, after being convince by one of her favorite teachers.

After burying their father in Beacon Academy's graveyard, Kathryn stayed behind as she made her farewells with Corinna. Then took on the initiation, finishing with killing a Death Stalker. Proventing it from killing someone, who soon became her teammate. After completing the initiation. Kathryn became the leader of team KSDR (CruSaDeR), which strangely consisted of mostly boys beside her. Two of them having no problem being led by her, except for one who ended up be put to his place after beating him in hand to hand combat...with one hand tied behind her back. Since then, Kathryn did her best to be a good leader. While ignoring any of Samuel and Derek's sad pick-up lines, stating she not one for relationship. Mainly because she once had a boyfriend who broke her heart during her years back at Signal Academy, though she got some payback by breaking his nose. which was fortunate for him as she been working on self-control with her Semblance.

The four of them did their best to work together, watching each other backs and so forth. Somepoint in time they grew close, enough to make Kathryn see the three boys as brothers. Even giving them nicknames to tease them, such as Smarty-Pants for Raphael.

Long after graduating from Beacon Academy, Kathyrn and her friends went out to stop a Beowolves attack on a small town. Where she discovered a young Faunus boy being chased by one of them, and after aving him, she found out that his family were gone. Killed by some of the Grimms, feeling sorry for the boy, who she soon learn his name was Lowell. Took him to her sister, Corinna, remembering how depress Corinna was after finding out her child was a still born. Along with the divorce with her husband, who had a restraining order on Kathryn after breaking his arm before the divorce was final. Corinna was both a mix of gratitude and sadness, mainly for the boy's lost. Since the adobtion was final with Kathryn as his guardian, even helping out with things as she take him along while Corinna was teaching at Signal Academy. And now she heading to Beacon Academy with her "nephew" and soon-to-be student, along with everyone else. After agreeing to Ozbin's offer of having her teach there for combat/strategic.

Extra: Kathryn make monthly visits to Arthur Rosada's grave, hers and Corinna's father. Replacing his grave's flower with fresh new ones, hand pick by Corinna.

Wow, this OOC moves fast ^_^

@Drakkon; It'll probably be a lot heavier than the average sword in the singular sword form, but the dual wield should be about the same weight as two claymores (about 5-6 lbs each) ?

Drakkon
02-22-2014, 10:47 PM
@Rina Good.. fucking.. timing..

@Chief pic1 is broken. But I like her so far. (Also.. she's one of the image results I got looking up Claymores..)

Speaking of.. @Echo Hrrm.. I can see why your character would be at Beacon. Graxis has trouble with his massive blade which is 14lb either way in a fight.. as for duel wielding...

Iejir you're up.

02-23-2014, 12:09 AM
about five to six pounds each eh, you do realize teh average weight of a two handed claymore is about eight pounds?

Echo
02-23-2014, 12:15 AM
@Drakkon; I guess Teale needs to train her strength so that her sword doesn't impact her speed-oriented semblance ^_^ Is dual wielding okay or...?

@Iejir; Ah sorry; I don't know too much about swords, I just gave it a quick wiki search and it gave me that.

I can change the weapon all together if that's the better option. I had another weapon in mind anyway that probably comes with less problems.

IejirKothar
02-23-2014, 12:25 AM
swords arent the issue is the weight, averalge longswords were about 1 to 2.5 pounds making it very versatile. but you wouldn't be runnign around with TWO weapons near ten lbs in weight .

- - - Updated - - -

you also need to acount for the size of those weapons, Sure eight pounds doesn't sound like alot if its centralized but that weight is being dispursed over the length of the weapon making it alot harder to hold.

TheExiledChampion
02-23-2014, 01:42 AM
@Drakkon you sure drakkon? it showed up for me, maybe i'll re-search for it. also, what you mean about searching for Claymore?

@Echo just curious, are the blades made of energy? if so why not make them lighter with the fact it'll just be the hilts, which would likely be lighter without the actual blade. though i'm sure Kathryn will most like assist in strength training the two, it just won't start out easy (evil)

Edit: fix the pic

@Iejir: That sounds fine. It would be more like she see him, thinks on it, and then recognizes him.

Echo
02-23-2014, 05:12 AM
@chief: Good idea! I thought of that idea I'm pretty sure but forgot until now. If it's okay with the GM I suppose they can be made of a special light-weight material found in the world of RWBY. Because of it's lighter weight I'd say that it doesn't match up to the power of a regular sword, but Teale's semblance is speed anyway.

IejirKothar
02-23-2014, 05:19 AM
like you said Lightweight= decreased durability. its not that the material needs to be lighter but you should consider that they aren't claymore class weapons.

- - - Updated - - -

from your images I'd say they look more alont the lines of long swords or broad swords.

Drakkon
02-23-2014, 02:57 PM
---------------------------------------------------------------------

*ahem* So.. most weapons in RWBY are heavy regardless due to the mechanisms. Usually what happens is that characters are either strong enough to wield the rare beefy ones. (Winchester and Blackflame) or they use the recoil from the ranged aspects of their weapons to actually swing the weapon. (If you pay attention during the show. Ruby shoots her rifle while in scythe form multiple times during combat or simply getting over gap A. B. C. and D. (Or on the roof.) ) Most of the time the weapons are small and light and designed more for being tactical or to enhance the use of dust.

I'd say since the sword is built awkwardly you'd HAVE to use the recoil trick to even fight with it.

IejirKothar
02-23-2014, 07:43 PM
I really don't think even the larger weapons were heavier than their solid counterparts. Larger polearms are inherently going to feel heavier than they are because of the weight dispersal, and remember Ruby is still a child with a VERY large weapon. I think typically a scythe was as big if not a little shorter than an average person maybe a meter long or so.

TheExiledChampion
02-23-2014, 08:50 PM

We're going to start with the arrival to Beacon given how we still need to discuss teams and such.

Graxis has a firm belief that a strong reliance on dust is impractical.

02-27-2014, 03:15 AM
what are you smoking and do you have anymore?

Drakkon
02-27-2014, 03:23 AM
.... no. The greek myth explaining echos if that Echo the nymph was annoying.. Hera I presume. Echoing what she was saying if you will. So Hera in her usual wrath said "From this day forth, you have words of your own. You may only say words spoken too you." After that she found a handsome man Narcissus. He loved no one but himself.. and this proved literal when he thought his own reflection was a fair maiden. He spoke words of love and poetry to his reflection and Echo in her lovesick way of only being able to repeat anothers words returned them to him.
Poor Echo only fueled Narcissus belief that his reflection was a beautiful woman. He died there.. staring at himself. Echo became so distraught she ran into a cave and began to cry. Repeating the words of many men and boys who went exploring.

EDIT: Hrrm.. the difference between Iejir (character) and Jace grows.. XD. While Jace seems to be more the hero type Iejir (c) seems to want more glory in fighting GRIMM.

@iejirkothar just to double check before i post, did we agree on the two being teammate or just good friends. ain't like they can't be friends outside their teams.

@heson yay, something to work with. couldn't think of anything on how he should react, kathryn was a mix of several things...detention being the kindest thing she could do, better then physically harming him XD

@Snow you're better off using your first slot for a teacher or some other faction as those would be a more solid spot then a student currently. I've been procrastinating in adding the 8th student and second teacher to the list. But they ARE there. I'm giving echo until either the start of page 11 of the IC or monday night... my time to post. Until then at least a Teacher character will allow you to play.

Snotgirl

maybe be the teacher for weapons maintenance?

Drakkon
02-28-2014, 03:37 PM
Considering how weapon designing is implied to be a common thing (Ruby designed her scythe and was surprised Jaune inherited his.) I would assume that anything involving weapons is inherit from humanities days fighting GRIMM not to suppress the bastards, but to live and to survive.

EDIT: I think Graxis' version of warming up is FAR from what Jace expects.

EDIT: Vfear we currently have a character who never quite posted and I'm giving them some time to post. NORMALLY. This means yes. We have room. But as it stands someone prior to you has asked the same question so they'll likely get the 8th student spot.

If you want to can play as a non-student faction. Police.. White Fang.. Staff.. or simply run unaffiliated in town as I'll try to keep classes to a minimum since we don't know much of the world.

For the sake of immersion and just good fun, you students players can post or send me a bit of signal or (insert otehr school) transcript statements, Excells in this or that, counceling profiles or record notes that would hav ebeen passed on to Rafe and Kat.

IejirKothar
03-02-2014, 04:27 AM

hahaha! i know it would yet she doesn't... i don't think she's quite bright enough to cheat. She's an extremely good guesser because she's been doing this routine for forever!

Sleep in class --> absorb information while not trying to --> get high grades by picking the best answer!

Beacon Recuiter: Now, miss Raynkin, you sent in a basic application, however, under previous education, you put mercenary work. Now, we have no problem with a mercenary want to be a hunter. However, we need to know what kind of jobs you took to gauge your skill level.

Wei Raynkin: (With small smile) Well, I've been called a couple of names, titles really. Gunslinger one, and the name I put down for picking up jobs after a protection detail was 'Sudden Death'. guess it came from striking down 12 beowolves in 12 shots from two revolvers. but thas my guess.

Beacon Recruiter: (Face is showing clear shock) Your Sudden Death, one of the best mercenaries out there? why become a hunter? and why now?

Wei Raynkin: would you have let in a 14 year old girl with next to no experience killing grimm, or the 17 year world known mercenary? give them that answer, and you answer your own question.

Beacon Recruiter: Very well, Miss Raynkin. We will send you a message on weither or not you have been accpeted into Beacon shortly. This concludes the interview.

Wei gets up, nods her head, and walked out.

Beacon Recruiter: The Dust damn Sudden Death, applying for Beacon. Hell, Ozpin would be a fool not to let her in.


Hope you guys like it.

Name:
Senior Inspector Sivan Duarte.

Age:
Twenty-Seven (27).

Gender:
Male.

Appearance:

http://www.gq.com/style/blogs/the-gq-eye/Chris-Hemsworth-Gucci-3-pc-Suit.jpg
Sivan is a White American-esque male stands at 5 feet and 10 and a half inches with a rather above average however not muscular build. He sprouts a somewhat dark brown head of hair which is often slicked back with due credit to hair products which results in a 'glow' of sorts. He often wears a very light stubble; so light that, at a glance, he may be mistaken for having a clean shave. He has mid-shade blue eyes if not a vaguely darker blue.

Commonly, Sivan wears a vaguely lighter grey three-piece pinstripe suit without a tie and with the top two buttons of the dress shirt undone. The sleeves of the dress shirt are often rolled up and worn as such under the coat; this makes the sleeve look more consistent and allows for air to get to the arms when the jacket is removed. His left ear lobe is pierced twice, one next to the other; he wears a pair of low-profile square dark sapphire and sterling silver studs.

Are you Faunus?:
No.

Personality:
Sivan is an educated, logical and straight-forward man without being necessarily blunt. He is very work-focused and inherently spends most of his time awake working, whether it be in the office. Sivan tends to have an adept memory, charisma and is task efficient. He's socially competent and tends to have patience as far as both situations and people go. If he is required to choose between a social life and his work, chances are he will choose work as he values it more. He has a positive opinion towards Hunters, Huntresses, Beacon Academy and Signal Academy, a neutral opinion on dust and a negative opinion on the Grimm and the White Fang. He values justice, peace and teamwork.

Likes:
Hunters, Huntresses, Beacon Academy, Signal Academy, justice, peace and teamwork.

Dislikes:
White Fang, Grimm, arrogance, ignorance, 'lone wolves' and bossy individuals.

Semblance type:
Sivan's Semblance takes place in the form of polarity. He uses this to manipulate the direction his grappling hooks and dust-charged rounds travel alongside hands-free reloading.

Weapon:

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4vxzQ8pgbHY/UeS7cei20wI/AAAAAAAAAaU/_tF5ivzhKyo/s1600/Gun+2.jpg
Sivan carries two visibly front-heavy high caliber Revolvers. Along the barrel, four points glow a vibrant red in the case that laser targeting is on, which is projected from just below the barrel. At all times, there are two points that glow red along the cylinder of the revolver which show the remaining ammo to the wielder and if the next shot is overcharged; the longest bar shows the remaining ammo by how much of the bar is filled and the smallest bar glows once the next shot is completely overcharged, which requires a 'charging period' to complete. The weapons are capable of carrying six high-caliber rounds each. The alternative form of the weapon is a grappling hook-esque gun. The vibrant red along the barrel assembly comes from stored dust. The weapon is front-heavy in order to reduce recoil at the exchange of more skill being required to wield the weapon.

When the weapon is prompted to transform, the main barrel assembly and the cylinder come up and back to link with the handle assembly. The 'grip' of sorts below the main barrel assembly and the hand guard protruding from the finger guard both move up to be 90 degrees apart with the direction aimed being the mid-way 45 degree point, split into two and form a four-hook grappling hook. The cord comes from both vacant space in the barrel assembly and the handle assembly; when both parts link, vacant cord in both halves link to prepare a short to medium range length of cord. The grappling hook is launched through energy gained pneumatically; the weapon is required to suck in air and, therefore, a one and a half second delay exists after the trigger is pulled.

An overcharged round takes three to ten seconds to overcharge; the longer the overcharging process goes on, the more powerful the shot. Shots can be overcharged either through Aura or through dust stored in the weapon; the lights along the barrel of the weapon measure how much dust is left. An aura-charged shot has armor-piercings qualities, has an increased maximum range and travels faster. A dust-charged shot travels slower at the exchange of heavy explosive damage. Due to the power of overcharged shots only the overcharged weapon can be fired when firing an overcharged shot.

The fighting style affiliated with the weapons revolves around agility and keeping the enemy at a range. The same weapons and fighting style have been employed by him since Signal Academy, resulting in adept skill across many years of training.

Background:
Sivan was born to a middle class family in a normal, peaceful neighborhood as the middle of three; one older sister and one younger brother. His mother was a housewife and his father was a patrol officer with the Vale Police Department. Naturally, Sivan admired his father for his work in the police force however admired hunters and huntresses far more. From three and a half years old to sixteen and three quarters years old, his dream was to go to Beacon and become a hunter. From an appropriate age, his parents enrolled him into Signal Academy to begin his training.

Sivan's weapons were inspired by the stereotypical police revolver. With heavy assistance and advice from both his father, helpful members of the police force who knew his father and were experienced in the strengths and weaknesses of a firearm and his tutors, Sivan - aged 13 and a half - crafted a single revolver designed to maximize the effectiveness of a firearm. Not long before his 15th birthday, he retrofitted his single revolver with a wide array of improvements and crafted a second revolver made identical to the retrofitted original. At this point, he begun expanding his skills into dual-wielding.

Throughout Sivan's time at Signal, his teachers and peers described him as a 'dedicated' and 'high-achieving' student. He worked understandably rather hard to attempt to get into Beacon Academy; he was at a natural disadvantage with his weapons, however, as the unique design meant self-teaching on the most part without as much tutorship as could be had. At 16 and a half years of age Sivan, with assistance from teachers he was closer with, made an application for Beacon Academy.

With his headmasters approval, assessments were conducted on Sivan's ability both in theory and in practice. Although he scored above standard, he failed to outperform the majority and was rejected entry to Beacon. Understandably, after a lifetime of training and preparation, Sivan was devastated. He took a gap year to himself, unsure what to do with himself, before - not long after his 18th birthday - signing up for the Vale Police Department, following in the footsteps of his father. For the duration of his induction training, Sivan was not permitted to take in his personal weapons from Signal; regardless of this, he scored high over the course of his induction as result of his intense study in preparation for Beacon. He graduated from the induction training the Student of Merit of the course and entered the Police Department esteemed.

Over the next 9 years, Sivan climbed his way up the rank structure within the Vale Police Department. He spent 3 years in patrol before requesting permission to use his own weapons within the Police Department not long after becoming a patrol leader. After he was examined for combat effectiveness with the weapons and passed with flying colors as result of his consistent training in his spare time - enough so he was forwarded to the Special Weapons and Tactics team for the next 4 years; a psuedo-hunter faction within the police force, most likely the next best thing to being a hunter for Sivan. After obtaining a large amount of experience across various fields of police work, Sivan was offered a position in the Investigation department which he accepted. He spent one and a half years as an Inspector before recently being promoted to Senior Inspector.

After 2 years of being in the Vale Police Department SWAT team, Sivan applied to Signal to be a member of the adult school council. Considering his recently gained history and previous high grades in the school, they accepted his offer. He occasionally returns to the school to assist teachers, offer advice to firearm-based students and have an input during staff meetings.

Theme song:

Theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDxDT56fseU)

Battle Theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dKBZ-JHJPA)

Extra:
I don't recall seeing any challenges in the rules.

Sivan is affiliated with the Vale Police Department as a Senior Inspector. Whilst he remains a Detective much like other detectives, a Senior Inspector is permitted to wear clothing alternative to the standard uniform provided he carries identification whilst on-duty; furthermore, he often takes a more active role in investigations, co-ordinates detectives in the field, acts as a link in the chain of command for the Chief Inspector and may be assigned more serious investigations and other police activities.
Do forgive me for making up a bit of lore there but I personally feel, where none is present, a hopefully reasonable explanation is justifiable.

GMs intervention; Iejir, Wanderer, and Bionic. Please refrain from posting for a bit. As currently the ratio between player posts has been given a rather LARGE gap. I know y'all are into this conversation but the ratio has been bugging me.

Also Echo has fallen out of that week period and now the 8th student place is once again open.

Name:
Julia Urquhart.

Age:
Seventeen (17).

Gender:
Female.

Appearance:

http://avvesione.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/idolmaster-17-makoto-girly-tomboy-smile-happy-awesome.jpg
Julia stands at 5 feet and 7 inches with a good however not excellent posture and an incredibly well toned however not 'muscular' build in sense of raw size. Her features look similar to that of a White American appearance with influences from the Armadillo, including oval-shaped ears, an armored tail and armor plating running along the back and sides of her torso; her ears are often hidden away under her hair, however, only coming out when she's concentrating on hearing. She seemingly takes care of her appearance as her skin is generally clear and her hair groomed. Her hair is natural black and her eyes are a somewhat matching brown.

If you were to ask the average bystander, they would describe her looks as 'tomboy'.

In a rather unique gesture from most hunters and huntresses, Julia wears an exoskeleton armor suit that covers select parts of her body. Under normal circumstances, this would be out of the question, however with her plated back and sides she is able to support the weight of the exoskeleton. The concept of the exoskeleton is to improve on her already existing armor and add thoroughly to her strength where others can not and it does just that.
The exoskeleton centers around the torso. It runs from the collar area, allowing vague room for a tie to be shown, out to where the arms start and down to the waist.


http://megabitzshop.com/bilder/produkte/gross/Warhammer-40k-Bitz-Space-Marine-Tactical-Squad-2013-Torso-K-MK-VIII-Sergeant-Front.jpg

http://www.bitzbox.co.uk/images/space_marine_tactical_2013_torso_back_large.jpg

The torso provides arguably the most armor for Julia. This is to both protect the vital organs and to shield the core modules of the exoskeleton which is located over the back, where she is strongest. The back contains the central HUB of sorts for the hydraulics system; without this HUB, the suit is rendered useless and needs to be removed to guarantee efficiency. A tactful foe with incredibly high penetration attacks would make a note of disabling this point. The back has four ejection ports and two intake ports. the intake ports are the larger two circles on the upper back; they intake water when need be. Two of the ejection ports are located on the back of the shoulders and the other two are located on the lower back between the back and side sections of the exoskeleton; both ports eject either steam or water, depending on the state of the previous liquid, on an incline. When water turns into steam or Julia decides to manually eject, the suit is temporarily disabled until she replaces the water, effectively stopping her with it.

The exoskeleton extends to all four appendages. The thighs, calves and feetare covered on the legs and upper arms, forearms and left hand covered on the arms; only her elbows have elbow guards, however. On the left gauntlet is a dual-firearm; for more information, please refer to the 'Weapons' section.


http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x4/Verrigan/GKRightArm.jpg

Although the suit does weigh Julia down thoroughly, the hydraulics allow her to move at a jogging speed at the best when on ground. The suit is entirely mechanical and can therefore be taken underwater for her to exploit her semblance. The suit has it's vulnerabilities other than the critical point which is it's back. Between the body to the upper arms, the body to the thighs and the thighs to the calves are exposed hydraulics which can be targeted with above average armor penetrating strikes to sever the connections or create a leak in the hydraulics. Such an action would render the appendage inoperable. In the case an appendage is disabled, Julia is required to ever severe the exoskeleton for the appendage or remove the suit entirely. In the case the hydraulics HUB is disabled, Julia is outright required to remove the suit entirely. When getting out of the suit, all she can take is her primary weapon.

Are you Faunus?:
Yes. She has traits of an Armadillo.

Personality:
Don't get rid of that bystander just yet. What do they think of her personality too? 'Tomboy' once again makes the cut. She is only in very few senses girly, much like majority of men are in very few senses girly. She enjoys getting her knees muddy and dirt under her nails, wears 'boys' clothes and can be incredibly stubborn; her peer groups are typically composed of majority men and she fits in just like one. Regardless of this, she is straight, although many understandably assume she swings the other way.

On a negative note, she is known to punch her friends in the arm and punch her rivals square in the nose; alongside her tomboy'ish nature comes a fiery temperament which can, provided the context permit, lead her into fights more often than not, often with her as the aggressor. This mainly comes from her protective tendencies which is certainly an asset to her friends.

She enjoys guitar, video games, men's clothes, being in a band and 'hanging out' with her friends. She dislikes 'girly girls', 'upper class stuck-ups', make up and dresses. Oh dear Christ don't even try to get her in a dress, that's suicide. And put lipstick near her too? That's a paddlin'.

Likes:
Guitar, video games, men's clothes, being in/with a band and socializing.

Dislikes:
'Girly girls', 'upper class stuck-ups', make up and dresses.

Semblance type:
Julia's semblance takes the form of manipulating water. She can manipulate moisture with some water in it however how well she can manipulate it directly equates to how much of it is water; for example, if a moisture is 67 percent water, she can manipulate it up to 67 percent of her total efficiency with pure water. She can draw water from the air need be although in understandably small amounts. In a sense, it's similar to Yang Xiao Long's semblance, however with a different element.

Julia namely uses her semblance to find water for her exoskeleton's hydraulics. She can flush the water in her hydraulics and replace it with ease. Other uses including incredibly swift navigation through water regardless of her armor, underwater breathing and drinking water hands-free. She's not skilled enough in her semblance yet to create ice from water; to be fair, she has only vaguely begun research into the skill as she has all she needs out of her semblance for now.

Weapon:
Similar to Adam Taurus, Julia uses two different weapons; they do not merge together, however.

As far as combat goes, Julia is a tank and heavily blade-melee focused. To compliment this, her primary weapon is a high-frequency o-katana which transforms into a high-frequency spear-naginata pneumatically upon user request. As per majority of pneumatic equipment, it requires about one and a half seconds to suck in air before the transformation begins. The weapon transforms after a small button on the side of the handle is pressed. To transform from a sword to a spear-naginata, the multiple extra layers of the hilt move forward - pushing the hand guard along with them - until there is a single layer extending the length of a pole-arm. This does not overlap the blade at all. As this process goes on, the blade folds and renders multiple times to form the shape, thickness and broadness of the spearhead. To return to the sword, the handle folds and the blade unfolds. In a nutshell, one half folds and the other half unfolds.

A large red switch designed to be pressed by the V of the hand controls the high-frequency mode. A high frequency weapon is a blade reinforced by a powerful alternating current and resonates at extremely high frequencies. The resulting oscillation weakens the molecular bonds of anything it cuts, thoroughly increasing it's efficiency as result; it doesn't, however, make it able to cut through anything. Strong armor of any variation will be able to resist several upon several strikes from the blade however the structural integrity of the armor will lower each time hit. The oscillation is powered by dust crystals; in turn, the blade glows the color of the dust crystal powering it when high frequency mode is enabled.

http://www.thevikingstore.co.uk/ekmps/shops/thevikingstore1/images/spear-naginata-[2]-982-p.jpg

The weapon is stored in sword mode in a sheath attached to a mechanical arm which attaches to Julia's back. The arm allows the sheath to be moved around, although it namely moves from her back to be carried to her side to be drawn. The sheath is fitted with a firing system that utilizes explosive small-arms ammunition to draw the weapon at explosive, pun thoroughly intended, speeds when need be. The hand-guard of the weapon is designed to take the impact. The sheath also contains a unique grindstone specifically made to help resonate the blade as it is drawn.

The secondary weapon, located upon the left gauntlet, is a dual-'bolter', as slanged by Julia. The weapon fires belt-fed 40mm explosive rounds one barrel at a time from both barrels in a rapid-fire sequence; the belt leads to an ammunition pack integrated into the back of her torso armor. The controls for the weapon is located inside the gauntlet. Traditionally, this wouldn't be safely operable by a human however her suit weighs her down enough to allow her to fire.

Background:

Julia was born to a middle class family as the youngest of two to a Faunus single mother. Not long after Julia's mother fell pregnant with her second child, her father left for reasons unbeknownst to the family. As shocking as it was, it wasn't a big deal for the family. Without a father, Julia's older brother - 6 years older than her and a Faunus as-well - became the 'man of the house'. Having a father actively going through puberty and high school had an impact on her growth psychologically; she was unintentionally raised to be a tomboy.

Julia originally intended to follow in her older brother's footsteps in attending a 'normal school' and getting a 'normal job'; he dreamed of fitting in, regardless of being a Faunus. Attempting to be normal only gave racists a reason to discriminate against him. An impromptu gang of racists, after one of them contracted HIV, got the bright idea of hanging around the cinema and injecting Faunus that passed by with HIV blood. They made a reaping for two days before being arrested. Julia's older brother was one of the fistful successfully targeted. Inevitably, this was incredibly hard news for the family. At first they simply despised humans and yearned for time away from them but grew to hate them and target them. Julia's older brother fell into the White Fang. Julia yearned to do the same; to give her an edge, she enrolled into Signal Academy to get more than enough training she needs.

Julia used her strong desire for vengeance against humans as a key motivator for her studies in Signal. Understandably, she achieved rather high in her classes and even attracted the attention of two of her teachers. The teachers, one Faunus and one human, saw great fit in her rather unique Faunus adaption as an armadillo. Organizing her primary weapon wasn't difficult at all between the three of them; what took them some time was the 'special project' that they schemed. It's not a hentai flick, ease up there, cowboy. Since she had the back of an armadillo, she was able to handle a far larger equipment load where others could not; she was also able to manipulate water as her semblance, which was perfect for hydraulics. They drew up, planned and constructed an armored exoskeleton designed specifically for her. Of course, the first two prototypes failed, however the third was a complete success. At the time of the completion of the third prototype, Julia was 14.

The next two years and 8 months before the Beacon Academy entrance exams consisted of a rigorous training scheme devised by the three. Understandably, by the time the Beacon Academy entrance examinations came around, Julia scored in the top three.

Julia was reluctant to apply for Beacon at first. She elected to go to it for the additional training. Once she graduates, provided she survives, she intends to abandon her duties as a huntress and join the White Fang.

I like V's detailed character sheet alot of info to sift through.
I originally had a concern with the level of tech involved in an exo suit but then again, there was a fully functional sentient android in the cannon so I think we can allow that.

As far as comparing Yangs semblance, It's show she generates flames, but I'm not entirely sure if she manipulates them. It seemed to me a manifestation of her anger or rage instead of a conscious act.

hrrrm... blocking and redirecting bullets might be a bit much. I feel like she'd end up as an enemy to Weiss if I was going to put her in this RP... I like the exoskeleton idea. Easy flaw to spot too.. blunt weapons would do better against it then slashing at it with a sword as it would with a normal suit of armor. While the metal is undoubtedly flexible the punishment limit is still much easier to attain with a few heavy hits from anyone with such a weapon.

My question though is.. did you add Duarte to the sheet because he's your other character and you're obligated too, or because of something else?

(This is my 'asking and assessing' the sheet phase. Do not take it as permission.)

EDIT: Iejir you're unoffically my second-opinion guy for these sheets XD.
