Combat: You have the ability to enter 9 different stances when engaged in combat
Offensive: All-out attack, Precise Attack, Dirty Fighting
Neutral: Observation, Analysis, Leader
Defensive: Parry, Dodge, Block

Players may enter any of these stances at any point however each person needs to pick on as their signature style for extra benefits (Aka what style did they train as their primary) If you have high Int. you get to pick two as studied.

Do not worry about equipment since you are all being taken away from your respective places.

Special Abilities: Is this tied to your race or person? What is your unique gift? Make something up and let us know.

Personality: Please make this at least a paragraph. Give us to likes and dislikes, how are they generally? Things like that.

History: Go nuts, after all your separated from past now, might give me some ideas but have this be a catalyst for why your character is how they are.

Finally; Personal Growth Goal: Why would your character be willing to fight? I am okay with people who do not wish to handle everything with fists but I need those who are at least willing to get their hands dirty.

Special notes: Anything special you want to add put that here.

Anything you desire me to add or answer questions let me know. I’ll be putting more plot details later I just wanted this up so people could start thinking about what specific stats and styles they want.

We will also be using Zodiac signs, and Chinese Zodiac Animals so please pick those as well once again does not need to match with birth.

Fire — 1 - Aries; 5 - Leo; 9 - Sagittarius - hot, dry, ardent
Earth — 2 - Taurus; 6 - Virgo; 10 - Capricorn - heavy, cold, dry
Air — 3 - Gemini; 7 - Libra; 11 - Aquarius - light, hot, wet
Water — 4 - Cancer; 8 - Scorpio; 12 - Pisces - cold, wet, soft

These do affect elemental affinity.

Had a question asked so I will answer yes your characters are recently deceased from whenever they are coming from.

This place you are going to is Purgatory, the waiting lines of Hades, Vallahalla whatever you wanna call it.

Quick Edit:
While character will have different abilities and things I will mention that most of you will be taking on the title of Shaman. You gaining abilities by fighting alongside an NPC, if you have a specific spirit in mind for personality you desire let me know but more on that after base character creation.

Attribute Description: Jack was an average guy, he went to the gym and work hard to make sure he was decently healthy. He was a bit of a drinker and noticed he had a habit of getting sick which always meant he was feeling down. He never graduated high school and thus went into the military after school seeing as how that was all he felt he could do. He had excellent perception and his guy always led him the right way. People remember him for he was always singing as he charged into battle.

Soul Attributes: Spirit Pressure +0 (low), Soul Flexibility +0 (Low), Persona +4 (High), Natural Ability +4 (High), Trained Focus +2 (Medium), Soul Resonance +2 (Medium)

No Description needed for this since it is a newer concept for your characters.

I'll make sure to have a character up when I finally have the free time to do so!

**Kortaga** · 12-14-2018, 03:57 PM

Something that I did not make clear with poor Isaac is be sure to pick not only a Tarot, and a Chinese Zodiac, but also a traditional Zodiac as well.

As such being Death, Snake, Scorpio
or Magician, Ox, Aries

@Ma1chbox no worries take your time. I lets me set up the combat
