I'm interested in making a male character (only because the type of Butt-Monkey I'm planning to turn them into would be funnier as a guy...) but having two assignments at once right now means I shouldn't be focusing on signing up on RPs...

Some people say I'm lazy. It's hard to disagree.- Name: Katou Katann
- Age: 17
- Gender: Male
- Appearance: Tall, handsome, with short black hair and green eyes. He is very fit.
- Magical Girl/Boy Costume and Staff Appearance: Black and white suit with purple markings scattered on it. Purple fingerless gloves and a long flowing purple scarf. Around his wrists and ankles are purple, transparent rings of light. His staff's true form is of a long scepter with a star emblem on the top.
- Personality: Katou seems very cool and charming, but he gets annoyed rather easily and doesn't like stupid things. He is expectant of others to be dependent on him, because it happens quite a lot. He doesn't really care what others thing of him, but he is sufficiently happen with himself, liking to keep fit and socialize. He is very sarcastic, but nice to his fans.
- Brief History: Katou has lived in the city pretty much all his life. Once he became a teenager, he quickly had many fans and admirers in the school because of how charming and handsome he is. His father died when he was very young but he doesn't like to talk about that.
- Transformation Trinket: An emblem of the planet Saturn.
- Abilities: He can create small stars to attack foes with heat and light. He can also transform into a starlike form, where he still looks like himself, but he can fly around very fast and a trail of tiny stars appears behind him as he does.
Hm... I was too late to create a male character. I guess I'll just keep an eye on this thread until something crops up. Needless to say, I think it's quite an interesting idea (even if this sort of genre isn't usually my first choice). Hopefully I'll be quicker on the draw next time.

Locking you up on radar since '09Really...? Huh. Obviously, my counting is off, since I thought you guys only had one opening for it, not two. I guess it's my lucky day.
Well, I think that I'm going to at least try this, although hopefully I won't goof up. Since I'm a fan of MGLN like Gaunt, expect something a little more on the magitek side of things. If I do something you don't like, please tell me!
Feel free to ask me to make him into a dark magical boy if you want, considering the good/evil imbalance I think you have right now. I'm trying to avert the evil russian trope (instead, he'll simply be a Somewhat Frigid Russian
), though. Of course, he could be more of an Anti-Villain than a true one. Regardless, I present to you my sign-up.
- Name: Sergei Gargarin
- Age: 15
- Gender: Male
- Appearance: Of average height, this blue eyed boy is often seen wearing a thin light blue hoodie and jeans. His platinum blond hair is quite short* , adding a vaguely stern look to his features.
- Magical Boy Costume and Staff Appearance: In this form, he wears a pure white robe that has blue bordering and cuffs. Underneath this he wears a waistcoat with a black upper section and a light blue lower section, which is split by a white line. Beneath that he wears a blue t-shirt and black trousers that are complemented with white, angular sections. Finally, he also wears gloves and a pair of boots. His staff, meanwhile, consists of a long, silver metal pole topped at both ends with three prongs arranged in a triangular formation, with two blue lenses in the middle.
- Personality: Sergei tends to try to suppress his emotions, rarely allowing them to rise to the surface unless he's in the company of friends or the feeling in question is particularly powerful. This is due to the fact that he feels that unnecessary expression of his feelings will end up making him look like a fool. Although he is quite faithful to the causes he believes in, he won't hesitate to offer his opinion on a situation, whether or not it is warranted. Nevertheless, when he feels respect or is friendly toward someone, he will drop the facade and let his feelings come to the fore. Strangely enough, he has always enjoyed the cold and winter.
- Brief History: The son of immigrants from Russia, he was brought up by his father with an eye to put him in the military, as he had himself been an army veteran, and was anxious to let his son experience what the military life had to offer. However, the young Sergei was rebellious, and although he has been doing well in school thus far, he has been trying to get around any attempt by his father to steer him toward such a career, and more than once they have had a furious argument. For now, though, things seem to have calmed down as Sergei tries to find his own way in life...
- Transformation Trinket: (Appearance reflective of personality) A blue watch that is cold to the touch, its' hands made out of tiny icicles. In order to activate his powers, he simply needs to pull the stem and rotate it once.
- Abilities: (Mostly have to do with energy blasts, purification, and healing, though they manifest in different and unique ways with different effects) He has command over ice, and can fire blasts of energy from his staff that transform into ice upon contact with a surface (or a person). He can also conjure a sphere of ice to protect himself from attacks, although it won't stand up to repeated attacks focused on a single area. Another ability is to create a large beam that takes a long time to charge and does a lot of damage, although it will cover a large area in ice even if it misses. Finally, he can remain perfectly stable on ice, no matter how slippery it is.
There it is... hopefully it isn't too overpowered or not appropriate for the setting (especially the history; I'm not sure if this is a strange area in our world, or a different world entirely).

Locking you up on radar since '09Oh, I know Nanoha. And whilst it is a good show, I tend to lean more towards Sailor Moon / Magical Project S type things. Also, my favourite magical girl show ever is Puni Puni Poemi. Make of the what you will.
Um... Well, uh, I was a bit worried about Rei, but I guess I can be glad that she was accepted, ahah. I'm kind of working on a non-dark magical girl as well at the moment, but we'll see how that pans out. >.>

And all three G Ms.
Anyway, accepted, Flanker. We've probably got enough players to begin preparing to start it, though I'm holding off so Tachi can finish up his character before really starting. Signups will remain open indefinitely.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."It's good to see you too, buddy.
@Lack of DMGs:
Hm... I wonder why that is? Usually, people would go "Evil is cool!" and act accordingly. Maybe we should "advertise" the fact that you can be a dark magical girl or otherwise highlight it?

Locking you up on radar since '09The limitation placed on DMGs was specifically because we were worried there wouldn't be enough regular MGs. The problem seems to be quite the opposite.
Well, for anyone who clicks on it now:
WE HAVE FIVE DARK MAGICAL GIRL SLOTS OPEN!

"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."Sorry for the hold up...
Name: Nakamura Suzu
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Suzu is pretty short for her age, coming in a little shy of five foot. She has long black hair which she keeps tied back in a ponytail most of the time. She has brown eyes and, due to some shortsightedness, wears a pair of wire-rimmed rectangular glasses. Her skin is somewhat pale.
Magical Girl Costume and Staff Appearance:
- Suzu’s magical girl costume resembles her miko outfit, consisting of a white haori and red hakama. However it also features a fancier version of the shirt of her school uniform which ends just above her waist and is tied with a ribbon around the neck.
- Her staff takes the form of a thin, four foot long, golden rod, with several extremely long paper strips coming from the tip.
Personality: Suzu is very quiet. When she talks, there's a good chance it's to deliver a sarcastic quip or tell someone how stupid what they're doing or thinking of doing is, although she generally won’t say that sort of thing without providing a suggestion of her own. Shoujo or magical girl anime and fighting games or discussions about them are generally safe bets to break her out of her shell, revealing an excitable fangirl who will quickly fall into embarrassed silence if given too long to think about what she’s saying. Despite her bluntness, she genuinely cares about her friends and is willing to go to great lengths to make sure nothing bad happens to them. She generally gets good grades at school, and while by no means unhealthy, isn't exactly what anyone would call athletic.
Brief History: Suzu has led a rather unremarkable life. She was born in one of the older parts of Sakurasaki city, the only child of one of the city’s priests. Since the age of 8, she’s helped out around the shrine when necessary, usually in whatever capacity requires the least interaction with people.
Transformation Trinket: A jade magatama which she wears as a necklace.
Abilities: Suzu specialises in two things, purification and barriers, leaving her healing abilities close to unusable. Her energy blasts are fairly average as far as destructive power goes however something about them has a tendency to leave enemies disoriented. Her barriers, created by an ofuda protect a small area from energy based attacks however they can only hold so much energy and tend to fade after a short period of time. Curiously, while transformed, she doesn’t need her glasses.
Burn up, hurricane of justice!

Yes, but they need to learn how to first.
Edit: Character Bio:
Name: Joshuyo Miki
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Appearance: Miki is of average height for her age. She has small sunflower hairclips on either side of her head, keeping her hair up in two thin pigtails. Her hair is a very light reddish-brown, and she has eyes which seem to be a shade of gold. Her build is fairly thin, average for a girl in her early teens, and her chest is neither particularly large or particularly small. She usually either wears her middle school uniform or casual clothing, which is almost exclusively bright and flashy colors.
Magical Girl/Boy Costume and Staff Appearance:
Personality: Miki is full of energy. She never walks when she can run, and often acts before she thinks. She isn't stupid, but it's rare that she puts a large amount of thought into her actions. In spite of her compulsive attitude, Miki care a great deal for the people she considers to be her friends. She has never been stellar in school, though she passes in most subjects with a decent grade when she puts her mind to it.
Brief History: Miki's history has, for the most part, been fairly average. She was born in Sakurasaki city and has lived there her entire life, enjoying both the hustle and bustle of the city and the calmer areas that hearkened back to a time that had long passed. He past would be exceedingly average if not for the mysterious death of her father. He died when she was very young, and she doesn't remember him enough to miss him. The circumstances of his death remain a mystery to this day.
Transformation Trinket: A small lightening bolt pendant, with a tiny red gem in the top of it.
Abilities: Miki is surprisingly good at healing, and her ranged combat via massive blasts of magic is quite powerful. However, her barriers are weaker then most.
