- Name: Zaki Saoyev
- Age: 12
- Appearance: A rather tan looking youth, a bit tall and wiry for a kid. He has slightly short, black hair that is spiked up. He has very sincere blue eyes. He usually wears a sleeveless training gi outfit, gray pants, boots, and a sash around his forehead. He has a small, star shaped scar at the middle of his right shoulder.
- Personality: He is driven to become the best Aura Knight the world has ever seen, is appropriately Hot-Blooded, thinks he is The Hero, and is very Genre Savvy despite acting like an Idiot Hero. Its actually all Obfuscating Stupidity since he thinks all heroes are Idiot Hero types. Inside, he is a very analytical and studious kid who can look at a power and surmise how it works. If he acts on this knowledge, then his fights tend to go easier. Zaki is honest, eager, and is likes to make friends with people. He is determined to avenge his father on a man named Wilhelm Eisen and the Black Spider, a group of eight rogue Aura Knights who seem to be supporting Wilhelm. His Berserk Button is someone hurting a friend of his or an innocent.
- Aura Color: His aura is a strong gold color, he has a lot of Aura Power and it usually shows.
- Aura Powers: He is a very odd type, in that his Aura has a lot of restrictions. He cannot use it for anything beyond augmenting his fists, his speed, or launching Ki Attacks. As an upside, the more determined to defeat you he is, the stronger he becomes. He can condense his aura into his body to get general power ups the more he puts in. There is a Dangerous Forbidden Technique associated with this style.
- Any weapons with properties?: Nothing here
- Rankings: (Think of these as grades. They go from 1 to 10, 10 being the best, 1 being the worst. As you are just starting out, you probably won't have much to show...yet. There are...)
- Physical Atk: 6.75, physical attacks are one of his strong points. Despite being a wiry little thing, he hits hard.
- Special Atk: 4.15, he can use Ki Blasts. That is it.
- Defense: 3, he is a kid. If he gets hit, he is taking a lot of damage...
- Stamina: 7.95, but he can still fight even if he's horrifically mangled.
- Speed: 5, he is quite fast due to his slight frame.
- Backstory: He grew up with his father and mother, learning how to be an Aura Knight from his father in a firm but still kind style, as his father Jaki was heavily influenced by Nestor, the mightiest of the Supernova. Zaki never really knew his mother, because she was out for the majority of the time. He does not remember much about Wilhelm, except that he showed up one day, killed Zaki's father and then ran off. Nobody has ever seen Wilhelm since, except members of the Black Spider. Zaki is also pursuing someone he saw that day, Nagi Kashizen. Nagi seems to have an idea about Wilhelm, but is a Manipulative Bastard who is trying something, and seems to be up to some mischief. So, Zaki has decided to go to school and eventually keep on pursuing Nagi and Black Spider, since they are definitely connected.
- Other:
- More Info! There are demons, and they are mostly Blood Knight Punch-Clock Villain types. Yeah, they like a good fight, but they will only do something they are asked to do in a contract. Otherwise, they tend toward just leaving people alone. They mainly reside in the Mordor I detailed above, and that would usually be in necropolis type areas. They sometimes live in the Bao Mountains.
- The School System: Unlike schools today, fighting amongst students is encouraged. You can even gain points from winning a good fight and add them to a test score. Students are discouraged from picking on weaker students. There is a strict honor code of respecting the older students, something Zaki seems not to be too keen on doing.
- Further Elaboration on the Situation in Maescire: Its pretty bad, as I said above, but here are the specifics:
- The Humans: Have to deal with the occasional Rogue Chimera eating them or worse. There is a lot of dislike between the Races due to the human policies of the last "President".
- The Beast Folk: Targetted for eating by Chimera who want to merge with their unique bodily structures. This country is also one of the only ones which has Beast Folk, and due to there being a lot of them, there is friction with the Humans due to living quarters.
- The Chimeras: They want live meat, but usually only get the mentally ill or dead bodies, which, to the higher level Chimera, are repulsive and not appealing. They are treated as intelligent monsters and kept in ghettos sealed away. A Chimera is treated as a criminal if it leaves the ghetto. There is an unofficial "Empire" of them to the north and they want to reunite with the Chimera in the city and give them equal rights.
Not all of the powers involve the use of Ki Attacks. Like, a certain character can use his Aura to launch tops from his gauntlets. He is one of the strongest and most vicious enemies you will fight.
Go nuts. In this one, the wackiest sounding powers can be the most useful to have.

I'm interested. Lemme come up with a character.
Call me a devil... it just means I'll have to use my hellish powers to get you to listen! F:36 S:0/20Alright, got it.
- Name: Katsuro Minori
- Age: 13
- Appearance: Slightly above-average height, average length messy brown hair, blue eyes, pale skin. Somewhat skinny for his height, to the point where his bones are almost visible in some places. He usually wears an ordinary t-shirt and loose pants that are easy to move around in, with ordinary black shoes. In summary, rather unremarkable-looking.
- Personality: Somewhat of a foil to Zaki, but too similar to be The Lancer, he's driven less To Be a Master and more to stop and prevent cruelty. Like Zaki, he is Genre Savvy and analytical, but unlike Zaki, he doesn't hide it, whether because he's unqualified to pose as Dumb Muscle or because he just doesn't care. A bit quiet, but doesn't shy away from making friends. He can't be bothered to train physically in most cases, but his talent with Aura makes up for that. He shares Zaki's Berserk Button of hurting a friend or innocent, as well as dishonorable acts such as continuing to assault a defeated opponent.
- Aura Color: Red
- Aura Powers: Katsuro has remarkable control over his Aura, able to harness it for a variety of uses. Only his own limits prevent it from becoming a full-fledged Green Lantern Ring.
- Rankings:
- Physical Atk: 3, he's not a very heavy hitter.
- Special Atk: 8, he has remarkable control over his Aura, however.
- Defense: 5, he knows how to steel himself to take hits. His opponents may even hurt themselves slightly if they hit where there's little between bone and skin.
- Stamina: 4, he doesn't react particularly well to injury however. His Defense is the only thing preventing him from being a full-fledged Squishy Wizard.
- Speed: 6, he can be pretty darn quick. However, he's more of a sprinter than a distance runner.
- Backstory: A boy more inclined toward reading and other mental activities than physical exertion, Katsuro would have none of the Training from Hell that his parents tried to put him through. Of course, he got put through the Hell part anyway, and learned how to steel himself in order to minimize the pain and injury. However, when his parents found out how good he was with Aura, they decided that focusing on that was the best way to train him, which Katsuro was much more compliant with. Disgusted with people picking on weaker students and assaulting already defeated opponents at school, he decided to do something about it. Although he quickly found that his lack of training left him physically weaker than other students, he also found that his talent for manipulating Aura made up for it. He usually only picks fights with people who offend his beliefs, but he won't back down if someone challenges him.
Wow, that came out longer than I expected.

Call me a devil... it just means I'll have to use my hellish powers to get you to listen! F:36 S:0/20- Name: Gaius Severus
- Age: 18
- Appearance: Gaius is tall, dark haired, and quite handsome. He has nice, pale and smooth skin. He, in fact, looks quite Bishōnen. However, his eyes tell a different story. His pale white eyes give off a very unsettling feeling, especially when combined with the bags underneath them. He generally wears a pure white cloak with a large XII written on black on the back. Underneath he wears a plain black tunic.
- Personality: Gaius is very determined and never gives up. Ever. He has a strong sense of good and evil, and sees evil everywhere. He always tries to act with chivalry and honor. He fights for the weak, and stands up to the the strong. He believes that there is evil in everyone's hearts. He is very loud. He isn't very smart, however, he isn't stupid either. He is brash and tends to charge into things. He enjoys fighting a little too much.
- Aura Color: White
- Aura Powers: With his aura, Gaius can sense attacks a little before they happen. In addition, He can shoot balls of energy from his palms, the energy balls only affect people he considers enemies. With his Aura, he can drain the aura's of people he considers his allies to increase his own power.
- Any weapons with properties?: A spatha which can only hurt those who Gaius considers his enemies.
- Rankings:
- Physical Atk: 6. He is a hard hitter, both physically
- Special Atk: 6. and spiritually,
- Defense: 3. but he is more of a Glass Cannon,
- Stamina: 3. who doesn't last long in a fight,
- Speed: 8. so he dodges attacks rather than taking them head on.
- Back Story: Gaius grew up the son of a rich man, and, from birth, his parents drummed into his skull a strict moral code, especially emphasizing the Black and White nature of it. Shawn had a relatively happy childhood life, until his father was murdered by demons. With the death of his father, he became determined to rid the world of evil, and began to see evil everywhere. This was further exasperated when he found out that it was his father's best friend who summoned the demons. He went to school to learn how to be strong so he can fight all the evil in the world.
- Other: Nothing I can think of.
Yeah, a bit like Hunter X Hunter in that powers usually have limits and ways they can be used based around said limits.
- Name: Maa Jeen(pronounced Yeen)
- Age: 10
- Appearance: Short and chubby, Maa has rosy pink skin and light red hair. He wears a black vest and white pants, and a large belt with an 'M' on it, as well as black boots.
- Personality: Maa is very childish, and often prefers candy to combat. When he actually gets fights, he fights with little skill, preferring to mock and laugh at opponents. Unless he angry, in which case he just wales on you while screaming.
- Aura Color: Dark Purple
- Aura Powers: Can turn inanimate objects into candy, and control candy, and can turn his own body into candy.
- Any weapons with properties?: None.
- Rankings:
- Physical Atk: 7 - Being able to turn your fists and feet into jawbreakers sort of does that.
- Special Atk: 7 - Being pelted by giant magical lollipops is surprisingly painful
- Defense: 7 - Kind of hard to hurt someone who can turn themselves into taffy.
- Stamina: 3 - He's out of shape.
- Speed: 2 - He has short legs, and again, is out of shape.
- Back Story: A boy so obsessed with candy, his parents used it to reward him for studying and practicing. Upon unlocking his abilities he left home, as he no longer needed his parents to give him candy. He makes a living by selling candy to children in whatever town or village he's in.
- Other: None.

What is so amusing about this? Why do you take lives? How can you forget?The first major villains right here.
- Name: Antonius Terra
- Age: 18
- Appearance: A tall and Bishōnen looking young man with long blond hair tied back into a ponytail, dark blue eyes, and wearing a tight black sleeveless shirt, black pants and steel toed boots. He always has a Psychotic Smirk on his face, which only becomes more intense if you freak him out.
- Personality: A Fatalist, Antonius is a rather dark sort of villain, he refers to himself as "The Most Wicked Villain in the School." He believes he is a first class villain, though, so he does have standards. He will never, ever lie to you. Of course, this tends to go into brutal honesty. He seems to act like a character in a play, using stage terms to refer to himself and his gang, called NAME Organization. As he says, NAME means Nothing Accomplished in Middle Evening, a standard response from them to avoid suspicion on just what they are doing at that time. He has a tendency to randomly laugh evilly during a fight. He has a very, ah, active imagination, letting him make very good use of his Aura Power.
- Aura Color: Black
- Aura Powers: Antonius has the very versatile Imagine World Aura Power, which lets him envision something and then immediately create it. However, its only effective if Antonius thinks it is.
- Any weapons with properties?: He uses a sword made of silver, which he likes manipulating and turning into any number of things.
- Rankings:
- Physical Atk: 3, he has little in the way of physical attacks
- Special Atk: 9, avoid his attacks if you can. This early game Big Bad does not mess around.
- Defense: 4.55, nothing big, but his power can make getting in there difficult.
- Stamina: 4, he cannot take that many direct attacks if he cannot repair himself with Imagine World.
- Speed: 4, he prefers to just sit there and let whatever he's got up his sleeve take care of the trouble. He could move faster if he wanted.
- Back Story: He grew up with more stern parents who disliked his extensive imagination, and tried to drill his whimsical and general nice demeanor out of him. The end result was hideously messy, as he discovered his powers can be used for all sorts of attacks. Nowadays, he is one of the top students, having been taken in by his Evil Mentor, the Vice Principal of the School. Ever since then, he has relied on Nagi, who is now an information broker, to tell him where to go and what to do for his ultimate plan.
- Other: Mention his parents IF YOU DARE.
- Name: Petrucio Biagini
- Age: 45
- Appearance: A rather weathered older man with quite shaggy white hair, sunken cheeks, and a perpetual dark look in his eyes. He usually wears his monastic outfit of the Church of the Silver Cross. He has a lot of miniature crucifixes on his person. He is stronger than he looks.
- Personality: Petrucio is a very brash and harsh individual who thinks that the glory of the Church comes first, and that the school should be helping out more in dealing with the Chimera Problem in the north. His little brother, made by an affair by his mother and a younger man, was turned into a Chimera. At first, he had no problems with this younger brother, but the transformation to a Chimera made Petrucio think his brother was "A mistake in the eyes of God." He is truly chilling in his devotion to his church, and the pursuit of power. He's been using his protege, Antonius, to engineer a scheme to force the school to enter the Church's service...
- Aura Color: White
- Aura Powers: He uses his crucifixes to attack, either turning one of them into a claymore and fighting with that, or throwing them around for various attacks, including Punishment, Execution, or Weight of Sin, which simply drops big ones on you.
- Any weapons with properties?: A rapier which can make someone look at their worst sin if he hits that person with it.
- Rankings: Biagini does not have an official rank in any of these, but this is just to help you guys get an idea for how tough he is.
- Physical Atk: 6.22, surprisingly strong
- Special Atk: 7.50, he is not as strong as Antonius, but still a threat.
- Defense: 6.50, quite a durable old man
- Stamina: 3, but once he gets knocked down for good, he is down.
- Speed: 4, not too exceptional
- Back Story: Petrucio started out as a very faithful young man living in a family divided between the rich father and the near royal mother. He wound up going away to be a priest on his mother's advice. This was not so much advice as it was clearing the way for her planned new son. Petrucio was not very sour about this, and when the new son came in and dissolved the marriage for good, Petrucio did not blame the kid for it. However, when the child was turned into a Chimera and sent away to a ghetto to the North, Petrucio declared his own little brother a "sin against the world." Now a Bishop, he maneuvered himself using politics into the Vice Principality. Not many people know who he is, except for the Principal...who has his own little game at work.
- Other: not much else.
Name: Za'ale Tati
Age: 14
Appearance: Stocky, well built, but off-puttingly so in comparison with his middling height. It makes him look humorously wide. His his reddish brown hair manages to form a stark contrast with his dark skin. His eyes are brown, but with small streaks of gold. Prefers dusters, with a simple t-shirt underneath.
Personality: Often carries himself with a staunch, stuffy dignified air that'll blow away quickly...to reveal a bit of a psycho. A personable, chummy psycho, but anything unexpected or particularly horrifying will be your own fault for not spotting it earlier. He'll do what he needs to to get the job done, and it's just too darn bad if it falls into some people's notion of 'evil'. Overall, it's justified considering his upbringing.
Weapons: A bastard sword under his duster, with a medium sized shield at his back. Casually slung over his shoulder is a zwiehander. It's around 6 feet long from pommel to point, with a long enough grip that it can double as a polearm if need be. At a fourth of the blade's length lies two spikes that allow for proper parrying.
Aura Color: Grey.
Aura powers: The power of his aura is...subtle. It gives him an enhanced focus and clarity that improves his swordplay significantly, and lessens the subconscious barriers inhibiting full exertion of his muscles. These aspects work together to provide a frightening melee combatant.
Attributes:Physical Atk: 9, he is a masterful swordsman, and thats before you consider his powers.
- Special Pwr: 2, it improves his physical and mental atributes, but it's piss-all for long range.
- Defense: 6, Hardy, but making his fights short take priorty.
- Stamina: 7, any warrior worth his salt needs to last good while.
- Speed: 7, closing the gap inbetween himself and other aura users is essential.
Backstory: A native of the Beltamore Republic, he was selected personally by Roas Cestiga in a program to have someone loyal to the Republic's interests to become an Aura Knight. This would give the city an unprecedented prosperity, or unprecedented peace at the very least. From the very first moment that Za'ale showed the potential for aura use, he was put into government training. Though the rather unspectacular nature of Za'ale's powers had initially been seen as a setback, his tenacity had quickly dashed away the politician's fears. After years of this rigourous, hellish training, he was ready. Physically at least.

I kick arse for the Lord!

I have always loved Shonen manga, ever since I was a boy.
So, now I have decided to make a little Shonen type RP, but with elements of Deconstruction.
It will not be as dark or vicious as my other RP ideas, nor will it be all grim and serious. I have decided to make this one to recuperate and get back into a groove so that I can participate in other RP's on here.
The story is a take on To Be a Master, in that the world is pretty similar to the one we live in. There are five continents in this story.
World Building Starts here:
As it stands, kids as young as twelve can, if they are good enough, wipe out a horde of 100 monsters, and that's if they've been put through the proper Training from Hell. Yes, Training from Hell is standard operating procedure. Parents who don't put their kids through harsh training are frowned upon as "coddling" and "raising a weakling."
There is a strong amount of Social Darwinism going on, something the Ten Supernovas, the ten strongest Aura Knights, do not really like. Yet they cannot really intervene on a large scale. They are simply too busy with all the monsters and out of control Chimeras. It is very rare to see a Supernova, and they are all mostly middle aged or older, and have a tendency for their aura to be so overwhelmingly powerful you'll piss yourself in fear if you provoke one.
You will be starting off here, as an Aura Squire in Endelia, basically studying and fighting all the time in a massive school to reach Aura Knight. You can only become a Knight if you are "Worthy", and this is achieved in many ways. Sometimes, you can serve in a Corps and achieve this through fighting, or by making it all the way through school, or other ways. You have a million and one ways to make it to the future.
