Aether Wings - A Science Fantasy RP.

@Imca: But people who hang out near those things to perhaps study them could be affected after a while, right? Are there any like these on the other moons?

edited 26th May '15 6:04:16 PM by Insano

Yes, yes they could, not all of them will be but they could.

Look sorry for being vague, but there a gateway to do some things, not a hammer that says if your near them X has to happen.

As for them being on the other moons? Yes, I will send more specific details via PM, since they will be kinda important to plot things down the line, and I don't want to spoil it all in the discussion.

I wanna join. So very badly. Screw my life.

Interest.

Hooray, it's here

I'm thinking of doing some sort of creature/robot hybrid (as in, 'a race so weak that they require cybernetic exoskeletons just to survive') with a magitek weapon. But it's really late at night, so I'll just put my interest here the now.

I don't mean to sound demanding, but am I accepted?

Got bottompaged:

Sorry, I thought you were still working on it. >.<

Your good, I will put up an accepted character list a bit later.

Its all up to you Aqua.

Edit: Actually, thanks Taco for leaving Kitsune vague, there kinda what I intended to play, and was gonna bring up some things if they mismatched, but since you don't seem to have any thing. >.<

edited 26th May '15 6:19:36 PM by Imca

Derp, this is what I got on them Taco, since your playing one as well, if there is any thing you really want changed be sure to let me know. :)

Interest. May play the requisite human, since I have a character I want to use from an RP that never got off the ground.

-WIP-

Race being left here.

• Kitsune have a very well documented history amongst the various sentient races. Unlike most races, kitsune were created deliberately by a group of powerful mages as assistants - artificial humans made out of foxes. This was thousands of years ago. By now they have managed to form their own self-sufficient, although moderately small population clusters, and their creators no longer exist. Physically, kitsune have heightened regeneration compared to baseline humans, have a tendency to be conventionally attractive, and after a certain point don't display many physical effects of aging - after all, a good assistant is pleasing on the eyes. It is not entirely upsides, however - they tend to be slightly physically weaker than most races, and any mages have a very hard time concealing their power due to ethereal tails that appear behind them when they cast. The stronger the mage, the more tails.

Alright, I have a general idea for a character, but this might change my mind on what I do. How magical can alchemy be? Like, would it just be poisons and medicines, like an apothecary, or can it go up to stuff like "my potions can go boom"? I don't really wanna assume on this one.

Later is perfectly fine.

Bog-standard human goooo!

• Name: Katherine "Katie" Regis, sir!
• Sex/Gender: Uh...w-what's the d-difference, sir? S-sorry, I'm confused. A-anyway, I'm a woman, sir!
• Race: Full-blooded human, sir!
• Appearance: H-hi, sir! I-I mean, reporting for duty, sir!◊
• Gear: Sir, I've been...umm...what's the word...er...outfitted by my superiors with the best gear they can offer, sir!
  • S-OZ-3012 "Sentinel" Battlesuit: The pride and joy of the military, a state of the art, neural-interfaced suit of battle armor, with a tougher and longer lasting forcefield, strength and stamina enhancers and combat AI. It runs on the wearer's own mana so overuse of the battlesuit may cause severe fatigue and even death. Hence, still a prototype.
  • Heavy Machine Gun
  • Valiant Saber: A sword whose blade is coated with a thin layer of plasma for extra bite.
  • Heavy Shield: In addition to the forcefield, the suit carries an optional solid alloy shield.
• Skills: S-skills, sir? Er...I guess I do have some...
  • Military training: I've been studying and training at the Valiant Military Academy for the last six years, sir! I know both CQC and markmanship, sir!
  • I...um...I'm pretty good at all sorts of manual labor, sir. I cook and sew too...
• Magical Powers: M-magic, sir? My ma was a healer b-but I don't know any spells myself, sir.
• Cybernetic Enhancements: Umm...just the thingy in my head that allows me to interface with the Sentinel, sir.
• Personality: Sentinel AI, online. Designation, A.L.I. Subject, Katherine Regis. ("Ali, why are you online?!") Subject is kindhearted and optimistic, but how shall we say...dense. Overly-literal. Oblivious. ("W-what?!") Subject is easily flustered, and has no common sense. On the positive side, Subject is hard-working, honest, sincere...and obedient. Subject has no leadership abilities, but works great as a subordinate. ("I...hey...I'm not...") Sentinel AI, shutting down.
• Background: Ummm, sir, I was born in a farm and raised by my Ma and Gran. It was a good childhood, even though I never knew my Pa. When I was eighteen, we were on the verge of being kicked out of the farm. That's when we got a letter. A letter from my Pa. Turns out Pa was Colonel Jason Elaran Regis. You know, the guy on them fancy holos a lot? The scary-looking one? Yeah, that's my Pa. Pa said that he'd pay for all our expenses...if I went to the city and studied at Valiant Military Academy. I had to help Ma and Gran, so I went. Trained at Valiant, worked hard. I graduated just last month, sir. Pa sent me here to the guild sir. Said he wanted me to gain some experience. So...here I am, sir
• Class: Tank/Frontliner

Alright, looks like I'm gonna be an alchemist. Gonna be a work in progress, because I absolutely suck with names... And personalities, but I have something in mind for that.

• Name: (I'll fill this out later, when I come up with a name)
• Sex/Gender: Male
• Race: Human
• Appearance: Link◊
• Gear:
  • Alchemy pouch: For carrying his potions, reagents, and brewing equipment
  • Forcefield generator
  • Dartgun: For when he needs to administer poisons or helpful potions at range.
  • Knife: Not intended for combat use
• Skills:
  • Identifying plantlife.
  • Potion/poison making: His specialty. His potions can range from more basic benefits (curing specific poisons) to more complex potions (elemental potions). What he can make will sometimes be left to the mercy of nature, so he can't always make something useful unless it's simple.
• Personality: (Name) isn't always quite there. While he's more than capable of holding a conversation, he has a slight tendency to go off on a tangent while in the middle of one. He's also very curious and fond of experimenting in general (provided all the subjects, if any, are willing to go with it), so he also tends to watch such experiments while they're in progress.
• Background: (Name) is from a (relatively) small town between two larger cities, that provides a convenient rest stop for any travelers. One of the regular travelers that passed through the town was a professional apothecary who consented to teach him the basics of alchemy. Bit by bit, as his teacher came and went, he learned how to prepare and store potions, as well as how to collect ingredients from the land surrounding his hometown. From there, he's mostly self taught, learning more creative ways to apply his new trade. Now, he's decided to try and explore and collect exotic plants for his potions, and the Guild is giving him the perfect opportunity.
• Class: Alchemical support, possible "artillery" and scouting ability.

Your not healing unless that is a substantial part of your character.... Medicine is... not easy, nor is medical magic, and considering you did not even mention it outside of class...

Your good Grim.

too many rps that I want to join all happening at the same time T^T

honestly i was excited when you mentioned this idea, but im not gonna read unless I know I'll be able to post...

honestly whether I can or not remains to be seen. So I guess yeah...

Its fine, no real rush Solus.

Even if you miss the start, I will allow late joining. :)

I just hope the things you have going on get worked out, it is never nice to hear things like that. :c

Actually, I kind of did (in his skills, though I honestly thought a weak healing effect was reasonable for an alchemist), I'll concede that and have him revolve more around the other odd effects of his potions. Would keeping his skill at countering poisons be allowed, though, or is that also out?

Edit: Adjusted my sheet to remove the healing portion.

edited 26th May '15 9:12:49 PM by gameboy3

thanks Imca. Once again I'm just glad the worst has passed.

Yes, countering something your good at is 100% okay.

• Name/Aliases: Daphne 'Daft' Porter
• Sex: female
• Race: human
• Appearance: Lightly tanned skin, 6'3" tall, muscular build with big arms and 6-pack abs with her dark brown eyes paired with her black pixie haircut.
• Gear:
  • Medic armor: a standard issue Red Cross armor designed to be flexible and easy for the wearer to place their equipment on it for a while like a stethoscope, bandages or medicine. It's a metallic white lightly plated armour.
  • The nurse's bag: for a more thorough care of the patient, it includes scalpel, bandages, diagnostics tools ranging from advanced(a iPad-like device that identifies hard to detect things like blood clots) to simple(a stethoscope). It's a cylindrical cloth sling bag on the outside, a metallic box with tools neatly arranged on the inside.
  • The Nightingale's Lamp: this is her tool to pull the magical energy into the magitech engine inside it, convert it into proper healing magic and effectively redirect it to heal the target.
  • Her holdout is simple, a small pistol and a pocket knife, purely for self-defense, though she wouldn't mind the idea of a 'long range spam' with her gun, if the enemies fire back first.
  • Most importantly, her Red Cross armband and flag, to show that she's not intending to do harm unless threatened.
• Skills: Nursing, magical battlefield healing and support and doing the heavy lifting.
• Magical Powers: Battlefield medicine
  • Healing: Not exactly healing, per say, it's more of closing the wound enough to stop it from being fatal and deadened the pain so the soldier may carry on until there's time for a thorough care but it's more of prevention of infection and stabilization than anything else.
  • Supportive power: She can also help her comrades with her supportive power, most notably regulating the blood flow from a distance to increase cardio or empower certain muscle to pack more punches. It must not be used often, as over-usage can be damaging to the patient physically(heart problems, blood clots) and to the user mentally(stress from micromanaging blood flow).
• Personality: Like your typical dudebro who just so happened to be a girl and certainly feels more comfortable hanging around with boys(and tomboys) than the classic girly girls. When it comes to work, however, she will be serious and all of her priorities will be on saving as much lives as possible.
• Background:
  • Daphne was born to a prolific medical family, her mother is a doctor while her father is a top staff nurse at a famous hospital called 'First Mercy Hospital of Athacrin'. Meanwhile, her brother strayed from the path as he trains to become a priest. They're good people but their busy lives mean they can't spend much time with Daphne, not that she minds, she prefers to be alone anyway.
  • Daphne used to be a shrinking violet, lanky nerdy teen who reads books(and still does, in fact she enjoys it more. There's something about reading it post-workout that's so...relaxing) and never really socialise with friends and has always been like this throughout her childhood and she didn't mind it, until she was 17, nearing the end of high school when she realized that she's so...basic, so uninteresting, so forgettable and would never seem to amount to anything other than an English major. Feeling the urge to stand out of all of her classmates, she decided to turn towards body-building with a little help from her previously mostly estranged elder brother.
  • At first, it was a little scary for the young Daph, scared to even show up in the gym, let alone lifting light weights but eventually, she grew to like the gym environment and became well-acquainted with the dudebros and gym rats there. Metaphorically, she curled herself into a cocoon and, by around the last year of high school, out came the muscular butterfly that can do 8 pull-ups and says "Bruh" in the beginning and end of half of her sentences.
  • After she graduated from high school, she went for a nursing course to continue her family tradition, it helps that she does not know what else to do for her career, anyway. Towards the end of the course, however, after finishing internship, she realized that she does not want to be stuck in a hospital doing dirty work for elder people, she wanted to be out to the Ethiedes system, exploring and trekking the moons while doing some real bloody work on her comrades, to obtain the ultimate achievement in explorer history, so after she's done the basic nurse's degree, she study further to specialize in battlefield medicine, applied for the Red Cross Official License to be officially recognised as a freelance non-combatant paramedic and go for the first explorer job that she sees, which is Aether Wing's, incidentally.
• Class: Healer support

hmm... darn it now this is starting to nag on me... I wonder if an android/cyborg/biomechanicalmadethroughperfectlyhumanemeans type being would be okay...

though then again this is fantasy sci-fi so I'm not sure if that would really be viable...

Yes.

Your good.

edited 26th May '15 9:59:57 PM by Imca

oh well then scratch my edit... Hmm...

alright might actually try and sign up.

okay wow this is probably one of the most wordy character sheets I've EVER written up. Yay for fucking A.I.s!

• Name/Aliases: T.H.A.N.E. (Tactical Humanoid Assault Neotech Entity)

• Sex/Gender: This one identifies as male.

• Race: AI Mobile Humanoid Unit. In simple terms, this one is a “robot”. Mechanical beings made of metal and wire instead of flesh and bone. Each one is sustained by a magitech core known as a Riftheart. Their frame is made up of thick fibers covering a metal structural frame, with the fibers making what is not unlike a human muscular systems. The “skin” is made up of reinforced plates. Their Rifthearts are charged with a set amount of mana each day, meant to be enough to sustain an extensive variety of actions to be performed each day. As the day goes on the recycled mana starts to lose its power, at which point the unit will plug itself in and recycle the mana. They range from several different intelligence levels, from workers, to individuals with their own personalities and free will.

• Appearance: The unit known as T.H.A.N.E. is an advanced assault unit, made for individual thought and action. As such this one is one of the more unique units in appearance. This one’s frame is sleakened to allow for more agile combat. Framing this one’s waist is a coat like structure that is made up of independent blades meant to extend outwards to provide control while operating with pseudo-flight procedures. This one is colored in a rather silverish appearance, with mana lines tracing across the surface in aesthetically pleasing decorative circuit patterns. No functional value is given to these features. Current headpiece takes this appearance, though other headpieces could be applied if this unit sees fit for change.

• Gear: This one is armed with a built in mana shield, under surface plate in the torso. This one is made for mobility, and close combat rather than ranged destruction. As such this one is equipped with dual blades that can lock at the pommels to become a bow. Using mana from this one’s own power source, this one can create energy shots to be fired from the bow as pseudo arrows. Blades can also adjusted so that blad runs parallel to the arm. Other armaments include a beam blade whose width and length can be altered by adjusting the power output.

• Skills: This one is capable of many functions. This one can act in effective mobile close combat with effective evasive maneuvers that natural units (organic peoples) cannot. This one is also capable of employing a pseudo flight function that can be used for a time frame of 2 hours collectively. This one is also equipped with a camouflage feature that can last for 30 minutes collectively. Draws from same source as flight. Therefore power consumed for cloaking will not be available for flight, and so is other way around.

• Magical Powers: This one was not programmed with knowledge of magic. Only use for magic is for continued existence and combat through magitech core and weapons.

• Personality: This one was designed among the units who develop their personalities. After activation we individual style units are treated to 3 years of being taught required knowledge. We are then either sent into another’s employ or sent out to fend for ourselves while monitored by our creators. While they observe, they do not directly interfere unless needed, such as the case of an AI going rogue and doing harm to a being that does not warrant harm. As we are sent to live our lives, we develop a personality as we “live.” As this one is only just out of the three year instruction period, this one’s personality is as of yet at it’s basest. Displays of emotion are minimal and near impossible to notice by natural units, making it seem as if this one is emotionless and computerlike.

• Background: An individual created by one Dr. Krios, this one has had a rather uneventful origin by what a hume unit or elf unit would consider. This one was one such unit planned to have an individual life. This one concluded that a life as an adventurer would lead to productive development. This one still stays in touch with “father” unit Dr Krios.

• Class: Assassin/agility fighter
