Ultimate Beacon Academy Scroll Chat Room

Actually, with this new Sophie, I'm going with allegories to a bunch of Slavic and Russian mythological gods and creatures.

If there isn't already a country in the lore like it, Sophie basically comes from a giant Russia + Ukraine rippoff, where it's always snowing and the Grimm are all horribly vicious and giant.

Belle.

Likes to tinker with machines.

Is chased by a guy called Gaston.

Likes to hang around Davros, who is a bit of a Beast.

...That sounds like Lucas's hometown. (o__o')

So is Dorm White Rose merged only story-wise or is it literally merged in-universe (i.e. rearrangements enacted by the Beacon faculty) as well? I think a more practical solution to getting the characters introduced might be the latter; so the characters from Beacon 1 and 2 are meeting each other for the first time.

Solus:At first I didn't think of that at the time of Signing up for B2, I am actually renaming him to that.

I thought of renaming him Anansi too, but than I can't have incredibly stupid ship names with Grim like DoubAls or Alsquared.

I mean we can make the incredibly silly ship name AnAl. But eh...

I dunno.

Also technically there is Alfred the Great.

Davros is no longer around though.

Also question for Grom on the whole year thing, you said it has been retconed so that we were there since the begining?

Solus: Charisse is based off of Charybdis and Scylla, two whirlpool monsters in greek mythology

@Sat: ...Oh great, what are you planning now? (-__-')

Actually wasn't Scylla in the cliffs and snatched up people on passing ships?

I believe Charybdis was only the whirlpool monster.

Sorry... I'm a bit of a Greek and Roman mythology nerd...

I propose that Sophie and Lucas are quite close....

@Solus: Ditto. Also into Norse mythology...

@Sat: Close how?

edited 16th Sep '14 9:58:12 AM by Aquatica1000

Yeah, you're right about that

Still though, that's what she's got as theming

So yeah. I was wrong.

Ah well.

Anyways.

Brother and Sister, of course~

"братишка!"

Wait who's wrong now?

Scylla snatches people up with tentacles, Charybdis drags em down with a whirlpool

@Satty: BROTHERRR

Oh and as a note, as a difference from B2 to UB, Charisse will speak proper "English"

Since we're going more canon, and ol Oum said languages weren't a thing

Bandersnatch

Appearance◊ Except for Grimm-y

A fully grown Bandersnatch is a B-Class threat. Bandersnatch have very large litters that carry out fratricidal tendencies throughout their lives, so most don't grow beyond being a D or C-Class.

The primary ability of these creatures is their speed, all six of their legs accelerating them to incredible velocities. They are primarily ambush predators, waiting low before they blitz attack their victims, attempting a coup de grâce in the first few seconds of an encounter. Usually by ripping out their throat.

If one manages to evade this initial attack or, even better, get the drop on them, their threat level decreases dramatically. Their turning rate is atrocious and their stamina for battle is no better.

No I was saying I was wrong about the whole Remus was the only one I knew of that had a fairytale motif thing thing.

Languages are not a thing?

Damn, I kinda liked the world-building we had, which brings me to a question I guess.

Are we going to use this chance to rope our worldbuilding into cannon, or are we gonna keep what we have?

No.

Sophie is a soft as fuck cyka. Ayers thinks he wasted the day away if he got up at 6.

Fine, be a party pooper then...

I'll just make my own Russia parallel for Sophie.

Well Ayers grew up on a fucking farm. If he isn't up at 4 AM, he's a deadbeat. Besides, she's going easy on her baby boy teammates.

...Childhood friend a good compromise?

The reason why languages aren't a thing is why Weiss is pronounced the anglicized way rather than the german way
