Revelation

[size=1][color=#CD6619]The crowd before him began to stagger backwards, their faux postures may have attempted to strike a courageous pose but their eyes said otherwise. Rolling his shoulders back, the men in front of him tried their hardest to stay unafraid; Tadakatsu folded his arms together and straightened his posture and looked down at the group of men. With a rumbling voice, he spoke, [B]?Apologize to the princess or suffer my wrath.?[/B] They looked to each other but said nothing. Tadakatsu sighed and spoke again, this time he turned and took an egg roll in hand and bit into it, [B]?Gentlemen, I will not repeat myself again and at this moment, I am not in the mood for foolishness.?[/B] He could hear the gulps coming from one of them yet neither of the men moved an inch, only cowered before Tadakatsu. [B]?Like h-hell we?re going to apo-apologize to that bitch.?[/B] Such words weren?t meant to be heard by Tadakatsu at any moment, today was no excuse. He unfolded his arms and reached over with his grizzly arm and grabbed the man by the throat, looking him straight in the eye. People retreated into their corners while the group of men jumped backwards. Toku-hime sat with her legs crossed, eating one of the egg rolls that Tadakatsu had. Inside, she was smiling and laughing at the unfortunate demise of the men before Tadakatsu, outside she kept a demure demeanor and watched intently. The bartender could do nothing and was acting as if nothing was happening, however he, too, was watching with such force. [B]?Within two to three minutes, my good man, you will be dead. I will allow you to live [i]if[/i] you do just as I asked before. What?ll it be??[/B] Suffering from lack of air, the man struggled to unclench the monstrous arm that held him. At this moment his friends came to their senses and one of them had snuck behind Tadakatsu with a chair. He raised it above his head and broke it to splinters against his back, but suddenly became amazed when the general turned unfazed and threw his friend on top of him. [B]?Bartender, here is compensation for the damage that will be done here. I apologize for what I?m about to do.?[/B] Tadakatsu threw a packet of money on top of the counter beside the Princess. He then focused his gaze on the people around him. They suddenly appeared with weapons- bo staffs and katanas- and were ready to kill The Invincible. He held one hand on Tonbogiri and awaited them to attack; a man wielding a dark blue lacquered with a [URL=http://www.bugei.com/images_products/508_big.jpg][color=#CD6619]double-leaf tsuba[/color][/URL] lunged towards Tadakatsu but the general grabbed the man?s arm and twisted it to thrust the katana into the man?s stomach. Upon seeing the bloodshed that spilt on the floor, all of the men- excluding the man who was still holding his neck- shouted and jumped onto Tadakatsu, trying to cut him and make the giant fall. Effortlessly, Tadakatsu stood there, throwing the men off of him, dodging each strike they took, and none had touched him yet. People looked out from their hiding places to find that the rumors and legends were true of Tokugawa?s spear-wielding general. He was truly untouchable and it amazed them all, however it had not amazed the men before him. They were still attempting to take him down but it ended when each had fallen from Tonbogiri?s swipes. The Princess looked on and scoffed silently, Tadakatsu had barely moved his arms and sweat had not even burdened his face. [B]?Foolish men,?[/B] was all he said as he escorted Toku-hime from the bloodied bar.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]I've got to say, this is pretty good. When I first saw this, I was expecting some sort of "Sin City" parody or something, but instead I get killing and more killing, with a bit of drugs. Ah, the gifts that life gives are great ^_^. Anyways, I'm really impressed and it just pulled me in. Although, I was looking for more interaction between Mort and Black before they got to the ?I'll-kill-you-before-you-kill-me? scene. Albeit, the description of Mort getting pummeled was quite interesting. It makes me wonder about all of those people that enjoy sadism- maybe Mort was one of them.[/size][/color]

[B]Nationality:[/B] Korean [B]Short Bio:[/B] Katrina?s life revolved around cars- much like the rest of her family- even before she was born. She was born in Seattle, Washington and lived with her mother while her father worked in Daejeon, South Korea. She moved quite often due to her father?s work- which she knew nothing about, because of this she?s lived in 24 states, Australia, Switzerland, and various other places. Due to her moving so often and her father?s work, it was difficult for Katrina to make friends, as well as grasp her education. However, she knew her way around everything like the way she knew her way around a car better than a chef knew his way around a kitchen. Before Katrina had even attained a license, she was already in the police records as a ?danger to society?. Unbeknownst to the police, her father worked as a personal friend of the Korean mafia located all over the world; because of this, she was never indicted of any of the traffic and non-traffic offenses and most of the charges were dropped, excluding Excessive Speeding and Reckless Driving. At the moment, Katrina resides in Monaco and finds herself amongst, possibly, the many great racers of the world. ----- [B]Traffic Offenses:[/B][/center] [list] [*]Excessive Speeding [*]Reckless Driving [*]Destruction of Public Property [*]Trespassing on Private Property [*]Grand Theft Auto [*]Minor In Possession [*]Driving Under Influence [*]Assault of a police officer [*]Disorderly Conduct [/list] [center]----- [B]Preferred Rides:[/B] Although Katrina has a love for cars, she likes to have three vehicles: the [URL=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aston_Martin_V12_Vanquish][U]Aston Martin Vanquish[/U][/URL] is used for show and leisure, and occasional races, while her jet black [URL=http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/9296/mazdarx86sh.jpg][U]Mazda RX-8[/U][/URL] is used specifically for racing.

[color=#CD6619]Hey there, [B]Momiji Love[/B] and I'm glad to see that you wrote your stories; however, I see one or two problems, maybe not that many. But, first of all, it seems that your stories have no [B]RATING[/B], which is the [B][u]FIRST[/u][/B] thing that is at the top of anyone's list when submitting a story, poem, etc. at the [B]OB Anthology[/B] area. Second of all- not a problem but more of a suggestion- it would probably help people if you wrote your titles on the [B]TITLE[/B] area, that way I or Lady Asphyxia doesn't have to close your thread for no reason. I suppose this goes along with the first because with a title, you are able to place a rating. Anyways, if you want to recreate your threads, you're more than welcome to. Please remember the rating ^_^. THREAD CLOSED.[/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]Atop the intricately built tower of glass and steel was the King of Sengoku, Tokugawa Ieyasu and alongside him were his two generals- Honda Tadakatsu and Hattori Hanzo. Honda Tadakatsu sat on his right hand side, wielding his spear, Tonbogiri, while Hattori Hanzo sat on his left hand side; the two were powerful and feared, just as Tokugawa was. However, trouble brewed within Sengoku, filling the three with unease, especially Tadakatsu. Pacing around the inner-court of Tokugawa?s palace, Tadakatsu couldn?t believe the audacity of the rebels who challenged his lord. Hanzo, on the other hand, sat nonchalantly with one leg dangling and the other in a slight crossed position, he wasn?t particularly in thought of the chaos that brewed below like his companion. Sighing, he looked to the Shadow Assassin and felt defeated by his own thoughts, reluctantly he sat beside Hanzo. [B]?Tadakatsu, you worry too much. It?s not like Tokugawa?s going to fall dead by a feeble attempt, he is, after all, the Half-Blood King.?[/B] This eased Tadakatsu?s mind very little, but still eased him. [B]?Look on the bright side: districts are swarming with rumors, rebels are gathering- this could be the moment we?ve been waiting for, my good man. We haven?t had a good fight since?? ?what feels like 200 years.?[/B] Tadakatsu had ended Hanzo?s sentence with such melancholy. In his mind it wasn?t the thought of war but the thought that half-bloods and full-bloods were charging together but for different reasons. [B]?I need a drink. Tell Tokugawa I?ll be out.?[/B] With a slight wave of the hand, Hanzo bid his friend goodbye and relaxed on the lounge chair. Tadakatsu was a man who didn?t let his thoughts get to him but lately, he had been bombarded by such thoughts that he couldn?t help but think them. He walked around looking dazed and simply out of place; people avoided his steps in fear of his coarse action, while others attempted to take a gander at him. He cared nothing of it and ended up at a lovely pub, more of an elegant club/ restaurant in a more appropriate way. Tadakatsu seated himself at the counter and ordered sake, as well as egg rolls, which happened to be his favorite snacks. People behind him and around the small pub began to talk in quiet whispers, occasionally staring at him and ogling him for he was a general of the Tokugawa Ieyasu, the King of Sengoku. It wasn?t until more murmurs occurred when another man sat beside Tadakatsu.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]Oh goodness, I never realized how many people had flown the coop. I remember so many of these people. I?ve never really known some of them but I have seen them around OtakuBoards; it?s a shame they?re not here anymore. [B]Name-[/B] [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?find=lastposter&t=6229]Nataniamon[/URL]; [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?u=2575]Geist[/URL] [B]Last Seen[/B] Nataniamon- Last Activity: 06-05-2006; Last Post: 09-26-2004 Geist- Last Activity: 10-17-2005; Last Post: 10-16-2005 [B]Why?[/B] Nataniamon- She was an awesome person and one of the first I?ve ever RPed with when I first came to the OtakuBoards. We had fun in the RP [i][URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=9212&highlight=Dryphon+Tamers]Dryphon Tamers[/URL][/i] and I am sure that I can say on behalf of everyone, we?ve grown out of that style of writing. But, in another word, she helped me get along in OB, as did Kevin. Those two are probably the first OB friends I made. Geist- I wonder where he went off to?but he and I created an RP together about vampires. I can say with safety that he was a big vampire fan or something of that sort. We talked online for a few but never really got to know each other, probably a pretty cool guys if I say so myself. It?d be pretty neat to see if he?s ready for some dark and twisted. Heh.[/size][/color]

[quote name='Onix][COLOR=SlateGray][SIZE=1']Every time I see a shiny new banner or what not, I have to stop and read. Heck, I even read the sixteen line Poems of Doom half the time, because I just have that much free time.[/quote][/color][/size] [size=1][color=#CD6619]As do I, Trev, as do I. It?s not that they?re just there, it?s because I have all the time to read them and that?s what makes it even better. I even read the bazillion-colors-filled-with-smilies signatures too because, like I said, I have all the time to read it. Reading signatures are great because they just say a little something about the person and sometimes people can find things within that signature that relates to them. I think that signatures are a lot like the style of people?s writings; they?re never the same but you can find a similarity within the lines. I mean, it?s not like their signatures are their fingerprints- they could be if people wanted them to be (I should do that XP)- but it?s an artistic expression to everyone. The banners in my signature, on the other hand, are made by other people which I give my thanks too because they take time out of their busy lives or not-so-busy- however they see it- and create a work for me. At the moment, my signature seems a bit cluttered, which means I need to take out some stuff- but that?s beside the point. I, personally, am just automatically pointed at a signature with or without the person telling me to look at it. It?s sort of? unconscious habit.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]As Theodore and Kaiser were still laughing and joking, Kaiser?s eye wandered towards the post filled with signs such as [B]Gorfenlopp?s Warning[/B]. He stopped in mid-laugh and walked towards the post, dragging Theodore with him. The post was filled with warnings and whatnot, but as it soon became apparent, none had interested Kaiser. Sighing, Theodore put a hand on his friend?s shoulder and said, [B]?You?re too picky, you know? C?mon, I?ll take you somewhere fun? like the Sky Dome!?[/B] Kaiser looked to his friend with a raised brow but thought nothing of it and considered the amount of items they could find. Nodding, Theodore created something of a portal with his Shadow Faction powers and the two stepped in; but, as the two were swept through Theodore?s portal had stopped them short, a bit too short, of getting to the Sky Dome and left them stranded in the middle of the desert. Looking around, Kaiser had realized they were miles away from the Sky Dome and Theodore?s Shadow Teleportation had been off, once again. He turned to his friend and began yelling obscenities, initially ending his rant with, [B]?I ought to have your head on a silver platter, you twit. Just when I thought things were going well, you completely screw it up!?[/B] Theodore recounted what he had done and couldn?t place what went wrong but walked towards Kaiser until the ground beneath began to shake and grow. He looked down and realized he was being pulled in and could not use his magic to save himself, nor could Kaiser who turned abruptly and found his friend being eaten by the sandy earth. Just as he stepped onto the growing ground, his foot had misplaced its hold and he, along with his friend, fell through the ground. Sounds of grunt and groans echoed through the large earthen underground. Theodore was first to stand and look at the closing of the cataclysmic hole; he shook his head and once again, looked around, realizing that Kaiser was nowhere to be found. He rushed off around the area only to find that he was hanging upside down with a piece of root wrapped around his ankle. Chuckling, Theodore managed to cut Kaiser down from his imprisonment and the two sighed knowing they would need to find a way out. [center]+ + + + +[/center] Walking through the many pathways and evading treacherous dangers, Kaiser and Theodore dreaded the thought of another misled path or another poisoned arrow darting past them. In fact, the two merely wanted to leave the godforsaken they had come to become acquainted with. Soon enough, the two had come to a pathway with what seemed like an exit and rushed off towards it but as they went off, Kaiser had tripped on a jagged rock and his head had nearly missed the axe only a few inches away. Standing up, Kaiser checked his hair and found nothing missing but as he turned, an inscription was etched into the wall beside where the axe had fallen. Reading it aloud, it said: [i][center]Welcome to the labyrinth of utmost strife Where most people?s dreams are to arise to life However, you must do something before you can get through To get through this maze you must have at least two teams of two.[/i][/center] [B]?Great. Where are we supposed to find two teams of two in this place??[/B] Kaiser shrugged and walked on into what seemed to be an opening down towards the other side but soon realized his mistake as the sounds of rearranging mechanisms resounded in his and Theodore?s ears. With another sigh, he and his friend walked down only to find another group but was sure to prepare himself in case of battle.[/size][/color]

[center] [B]Name-[/B] Cristofer Armen [B]Codename-[/B] Pyrrhus, meaning flame-colored; red.

[B]Age-[/B] 23 [B]Origin-[/B] Greece [B]Weapons-[/B] Carried in his right hand is a golden-red broadsword that began to lose its faux silver glint and in his left is a gauntlet of the same color.

[B]Appearance-[/B] [URL=http://www.kinoweb.de/film2000/Gladiator/pix/gla.jpg]Cristofer[/URL] is a broad-shouldered man with unruly dark brown hair and an unshaven chin. He appears tough and brusque, wielding his broadsword and gauntlet. He bears a scar on his right shoulder but hides it from on-looking eyes. [B]Personality-[/B] Cristofer is a quiet man who keeps to himself but when push comes to shove, he is one who stands tall and does not fall. None have ever faced him in the Underground and none have ever approached him for it is said that those who do lose more than just a limb. He appears brute and defiant with cold eyes piercing your soul and a stone heart that couldn?t be broken; Cristofer?s calloused appearance made him a mysterious man who?s actions could not be predicted, let alone watched. However, he is also a man of dexterity and intelligence, wise beyond words with series of homage written in Ancient times spread out like mats memorized in his mind. Cristofer is as enigmatic as the words he speak, covered in anomalies. Nonetheless, he is but a man waiting to ?Learn to Fly.?

[size=1][color=#CD6619]Well, I'm not sure if this is a solution to your problems but it's just a little thought. Nothing big but, after I read what Neverland was about, I was struck with this want to watch Peter Pan again; needless to say, I did. Mind you, this is the Disney cartoon version of Peter Pan. Anyways, I was watching this and in the movie there were 6 Lost Boys: Slightly (fox costume- who I signed up as), Cubby (bear costume), Nibs (rabbit costume), Tootles (skunk costume) and the Twins (raccoon costumes). I got the names off of [URL=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Pan_(1953_film)]this site[/URL]. [Wikipedia sure can come in handy sometimes.] And then there's [B]The Indian Chief[/B]- Tiger Lily's father, the [B]Indian tribe[/B], and the [B]Mermaids[/B]. [Although, they only played a small part; they listened to Pan's stories.] But going on, I'm thinking if either Blase or Dhampir aren't chosen, one of them can sign up as one of Lost Punks- ones from the movie that is. Albeit, I'm not sure how many people you're looking for. Just a suggestion ^_^.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]Sitting in the lush burgundy leather rolling chair, Mystique could see all that was going on in the estate Magneto took as his own for the Brotherhood. She was even able to see the doors opening to a young mutant girl who wore an ostentatious outfit, capturing a few eyes as she walked in. Mystique watched her carefully, taking in every step, every hand gesture, she took in everything the girl did. There was something about the girl that caught her eye, even before she had entered the doors. With a simple smirk, Mystique went on to watch the girl interact with the other mutants, it then went on to surveying the entirety of the Brotherhood that stood in her peripheral vision. They seemed powerful, yet immature in their own right, but she knew that she could shape them to become great instruments for Magento?s plan. Mystique went on to think about the possibilities of exercises and drills, thinking of ways to simply torture yet nurture the children around her. Leaning back in the chair and put her feet on the table in front of her, allowing her mind to become consumed by the daydreams she seemed to constantly have since coming to Genosha; as she went on, a silent yet noticeable poof was heard from within the room. [B]?Hello, Thalia darling.? ?Hello, mother.?[/B] Thalia replied. There was an odd silence between the two, then. Mystique put her feet down and looked at her daughter with concern. Thalia threw a meek smile to not upset her mother, but its façade went quickly just as it had came. [B]?Nothing?s wrong, mother. It?s? boring around Genosha. We haven?t done anything since I joined. Aren?t you bored? Don?t you want to do something??[/B] The restlessness in her daughter?s voice made Mystique remember the days when she was young. She chuckled and nodded, but reminded Thalia, [B]?Magneto has big plans for the Brotherhood. If you want, I can set up a little training for you and others..?[/B] She leaned back in her chair again and continued, [B]?that?s only if you and the others want to.?[/B] In an instant, Thalia disappeared leaving behind a dust of smoke, before long Mystique could hear the excited voices of the other Brotherhood mutants. Once again, Mystique smirked that coy smile and said to no one in particular, [B]?Children??[/B][/size][/color]

[center] [B]Name-[/B] Honda Tadakatsu [B]Nickname-[/B] The Invincible [B]Gender-[/B] Male [B]Age-[/B] 34 [B]Half/Full-[/B] Half-Blood [B]Appearance-[/B] Slightly shorter than his master, Tadakatsu is a monster of a man beside himself. He was known for his bright and flashy clothing in and out of battle but he was reputed for his antler-helmet that he wore in battle and during ceremonies, festivals, and the like. He was never one for typical outwear and so, would always be seen colorful clothing wherever he went. One couldn?t say that he was the handsomest but they couldn?t say that he was the ugliest; Tadakatsu never won people over with his appearance but with his unyielding personality and military prowess. Yet, when people looked at him they found a general with a clean-cut topknot, trimmed beard, and strangely showered body. He, unlike most men, was the cleanest man anyone could have met- if they had the chance. In honor of Tadakatsu, an artist from the mountains of Askusa had painted a portrait of him. [URL=http://homepage.ntlworld.com/neil_james.bruce/Honda-copy.jpg]Click Here[/URL]. [B]Weapon of Choice-[/B] Tadakatsu wields the mighty Tonbogiri, one of three legendary spears created by the swordsmith Masamune. Respectively, it is called ?Dragonfly Cutter? for its amazing precision and never-dulling blade. Myth has it that the Tonbogiri?s name was given to it when a dragonfly landed on its blade and cut it in two quicker than anyone had seen. He also holds with him a simple katana given to him by Tokugawa as a reward for the many battles he?s been in alongside him. Though simple, the katana serves Tadakatsu greatly in battle, just as the Tonbogiri does. [B]Fighting Style-[/B] Sōjutsu is the art of fighting with a yari and because the Tonbogiri is a type of yari- Japanese spear- Tadakatsu uses the style of Sōjutsu used for mounted and dismounted combat. He uses all styles of Sōjutsu, but is seen using an adapted version of Hozoin-ryu. An ancient poem says: ?It can be a spear to thrust. It can be a pole-sword to cleave. It can be a sickle to slash. In any case, it never fails to miss the target.? Taking the poem and combining it with his fighting, Tadakatsu has yet to be wounded. [B]Personality-[/B] Tadakatsu is one of Tokugawa Ieyasu?s finest generals, if not [i]the[/i] finest. He is a terror in battle, a calamitous warrior who is brave, loyal, and filled with perseverance regardless of the disadvantages his army or he might have. He disregards all odds and tramples the weak before him, destroying those who are defiant. Tadakatsu is a man who lives life to the fullest but also stops to smells the roses, he is also a man who stops at nothing to gain what he knows is rightfully his.[/center]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]That's right, watch out Erika's supergirl, hear her roar! XD But to the more serious case, like Zeke said, I like how you separated the different events with times, it helped me to track characters better. It also gave a sense of suspense and mystery. I'm in awe at this chapter, it had a bit of suspense, I mean when Erika stopped talking and someone else spoke, I was freaking out "What happened?! Is she dead?" And then the third party, oh my that was a thriller. Overall, great chapter. I knew it was going to be good ^_^.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]How sweet, I have my own little fanclub, XP. My goodness, I remember when I first posted on this- it was a long list. Now then, let?s go on to real business ^_^. Of course, I?d love to meet [B]Athena[/B]. I?m not even sure how long I?ve known her for but she was probably one of the first people I was able to talk to via OB and since then we?ve been OB sisters. I mean, sure she seems like a crazy gal online but crazy?s my kind of thing so I think we?d hit it off quickly and maybe I can teach her how to cook Asian cuisine. Then there?s [B]Vicky[/B]. Bless this girl?s soul for even talking to me because I?ve never met anyone who had so much in common with me; I consider her like a little sister to me. I?m just at a loss of words to say about her because she is just that awesome. The funny thing about time differences is that when it?s night for her, it?s the afternoon for me and either way, we?re both tired but too consumed by whatever to go to sleep. And if she wants to thank me for speaking to her at night, I?d love to thank her for bringing out the SIS in me. Let?s see... oh! [B]RiflesAtRecess[/B], I have to meet him, I mean he was the first person I [i]ever[/i] RPed with, alongside Nataniamon, in Dryphon Tamers [wow I can?t believe I actually remembered the name]. Sure, at the time we were both going by different names but now, after he got in touch with me, we?ve had awesome conversations about whatever and he?s introduced me to some really cool bands. I?d like to meet him so that we can sit and talk about whatever comes to mind. [B]Onix[/B] and [B]Ezekiel[/B] are two people I?d love to meet, no doubt. I love their writing style, their incredible RPing skills, and they?re probably the cutest couple I know. But to be specific, it?d be nice to meet Trevor because he lives about, probably, 3 hours from me and because he seems like a mellow guy to hang out and I?d love to meet Jamie because I just want to see what England?s like [just kidding], it?s because she can teach me a thing or two about art and maybe [quote name='Epsilon][COLOR=SlateGray][SIZE=1][b]Revelation[/b] - Our conversations are generally short. But very fun, I enjoy talking to her and RPGing with her. Revelation is a great writer. Another person I look up to, she seems to have a great balance of logic and fun.[/SIZE'][/COLOR][/quote] Aw, I?m touched that she?d say that, even if I actually don?t have a balanced diet of logic and fun; maybe I do. I can?t be sure but even so, meeting [B]Epsilon[/B] would be great because, like she said, even if our conversations are generally short, they?re short and if we met in real life, I think we?d have talks that went on through the night. And? oh goodness, I can?t forget about my OB brother [B]Kwai[/B] [although, I think he fell off of the face of Otakuboards], but nonetheless, he?s probably one of the most important people I?d love to meet. Not only is he my OB brother, but he?s also a friend of mine who has a crazy way of getting to you but he?s the type of person you just love to hate. I feel as though I?m missing people and I probably am ^_^;;.[/size][/color]

[center] [B]Name-[/B] Slightly [A.K.A. Thomas Yoshino Koromaki-Andrews before Neverland] [B]Gender-[/B] Male [B]Age-[/B] 16 years [B]Sexuality-[/B] Not Applicable- sexuality has no meaning to him whatsoever considering he spends his time gallanting around Neverland with whoever he may find. [B]Appearance-[/B] [URL=http://img374.imageshack.us/img374/2914/reita2yf.jpg][color=white][U]Slightly[/U][/color][/URL]: Neverland was a place of magic and mystery, but it was also a place of change; in essence, it changed the children. Slightly- once known as Thomas- was one of the many children who changed; his once vivid red hair became an unruly, dirty brown, flawless pale ivory skin tanned to a scarred golden brown, and glinting green eyes turned a calloused jade; his semi-clean clothes became tattered and old, thus making him look grungier than before. Like most of the Punks, Slightly ventured away from the tree-house, but unlike the rest of them, he also kept near it. Being one of the older Punks, if not the oldest, he took to the outdoors quickly and busied himself with watching the younger Punks and working, not wanting to become bombarded with thoughts; but, it was because of this that he kept a fair build and intimidated those younger or weaker-looking than him- excluding Pete. Slightly was never attached to proper grooming or clothing for that matter, but since nudity was not an option for him, he wears his ripped jeans, dirty white sneakers, and black skin-tight shirt, occasionally does he wear the black short-sleeved dress shirt. He also had his finger gloves that had metal plates atop the knuckles that he wore often, as well as the silver gothic cross given to him by someone whose name he couldn?t remember. Although, the strangest article he?s worn, as of yet, was the fox skin he had, it?s unbeknownst to anyone why he wears it. [B]Personality-[/B] Just as his name would suggest, Slightly is [i]slightly[/i] in everything and anything that one could imagine. He?s slightly daring, slightly loud, slightly quiet, just ever-so-slightly, which makes him that much more lovable- if that?s what floats anyone?s boat. At first sight, Slightly seems like the typical emo-kid with a bad attitude, but at second glance, he can be upfront, in-your-face, arrogant, and rebellious; a ticking time bomb waiting to explode with a smile that?s so deviant, one could never turn away from it. In essence, Slightly?s the type of boy that everyone loves to hate; except? that is only half of who he is. The other half of Slightly is soft-spoken, gentle, and warm with a sense of vulnerability and innocence exuding from him. This is the half that stays inside his room, when he?s alone or with those he truly trusts- which is only a small handful- and this half has a way with words that grabs people in and lets them listen to the sadness in his voice. It?s this half that pours out the pain and guilt, the extremities from the past he escaped. It only appears once every blue moon but when it does, those that are with him, empathize his enwrapping emotions. [B]Biography-[/B] [i]FIXING Bio[/i] [B]Vices-[/B] Externally, Slightly shows no signs of weaknesses, he acts as if he is resistant to all vices; however, like all humans, Slightly has vices. He has a love for sadism, masochism, alcohol, violence, and above all- sex, albeit these vices are one of the smaller. The main vice that only a few of the trusted know about is one that rarely shows. Slightly?s main kryptonite is the voice of an angel- those who sing with such illustrious voices, his knees get weak. He forgets his troubles, his problems, and everything else whenever he hears the voice that rings out across the breeze and reaches his ears. [B]Useful Items-[/B] With a love for blades, Slightly keeps with him a dagger and with a love for fighting, he wears his finger gloves. He also has a metal baseball bat for protection, even though it?s highly unlikely he would need it. [B]Notes-[/B] As one of the older Punks, Slightly acts as an older brother, especially to Pete. He feels it is his responsibility to see that they are safe and free from Hook?s hands and he feels it is his duty that he protect them no matter the costs.[/center] [size=1][color=#FF7F24]Oh pooh, I don't like my Biography. I'll probably be changing that soon enough. Oh and I changed my picture... as well as almost everything else in my sign-up. XP[/size][/color]

[color=#FF6103]I think that this thread is perfect for the [B]Anime Lounge[/B], since it is the place for threads such as this one ^_^. - Revelation.[/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]Looking up at the castle walls, Kaiser saw a series of blue spheres created but looked away disinterested what or who was bothering the Game Master- also known as GM. He looked around the city and was equally disinterested at the bustle of the market. With a sigh, he went on walking through the bustling area and came upon a familiar face, Theodore. This face was part of the Shadow Faction and was known to be a bit of a dodgy character, yet his intentions had always made Kaiser laugh a bit; the two were real-life friends as well, occasionally getting together and creating a bit of chaos in EVIO. Yet, it was rare to see Theodore, considering both led very different lives. Coming up to the Shadow Wizard, Kaiser passed by with a cold shoulder- literally- causing Theodore to become chilled and search for the person who had attempted at freezing him in the brightest of days in Aduin. His search was slightly less frantic than the new members yet it ended in him grasping Kaiser?s shoulder, which resulted in a cold hand. With a smile, Kaiser turned and greeted his friend. [B]?Nice to see you again, Theo. I didn?t recognize you for a second; have you gotten a bit darker last time we met or is it just me??[/B] Kaiser still smiled that coy smile, enraging Theodore. [B]?It?s Theodore and no, I haven?t gotten darker. But you could?ve turned me blue, if that matters at all.? ?What ever do you mean?[/B] Thus the game began. Theodore despised the innocent plays conducted by Kaiser, albeit he, himself, was one to do the same; he just hated it when it was used on him. [B]?I don?t know what I could?ve done to make you blue; are you sad? Did I hurt you? I don?t think I did.?[/B] Kaiser?s hand began to turn Theodore?s head this way and that, making sure there wasn?t a single scratch on him. His friend swatted the hand that held his face, only making Kaiser laugh. [B]?You should be careful, then. You never know who you might run into? especially in Aduin. Anyways, how goes everything on your side??[/B] Theodore grumbled as Kaiser put an arm around neck, dragging him to wherever Kaiser pleased. In the end, Theodore chuckled alongside Kaiser, making use of their leisurely time watching new members pick fights and whatnot. The two had always had fun watching in others? demise from their own fun and games; however, Theodore had a personal favorite for misleading, while Kaiser enjoyed the art called ?cat-and-mouse?- in which he played Cat and the others the mouse.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619][B]Name-[/B] Wilhelm Schweitzer [B]Birthdate-[/B] April 28, 1998 [23] [B]Gender-[/B] Male [B]Username-[/B] Kaiser [B]Appearance-[/B] [URL=http://img115.imageshack.us/img115/560/kaiser9ak.jpg]Franz Schweitzer[/URL] © [URL=http://egosun.deviantart.com/gallery/][B]egosun@DeviantArt[/B][/url] That is his out-of-game appearance, he wears jeans and short sleeved shirts, occasionally wearing a jacket. His in-game appearance consists of a dark blue [URL=http://www.bitablue.com/images/RZ290002N.jpg]tangzhuang jacket[/URL] and pants. [B]Faction-[/B] Water [B]Class-[/B] Wizard [b]Weapon-[/b] As a Wizard of the Water Faction, Kaiser prefers to rely on magic. In his belief, anyone can use a weapon, but it takes skill and refinement to use magic. Albeit, Kaiser uses a [URL=http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/1038/dragonflute6vj.jpg]Dragon Flute[/URL] as a medium and a weapon. [B]Known Spells-[/B] Though his knowledge of spells is exasperatingly large, he prefers to use a few as they are his favorites and most used in the game. [B][i]Healing Water:[/B][/I] In battle, Kaiser is able to wrap water around the wound and allow the water?s healing effect to take action. Out of battle, his hands are engulfed by water and all he has to do is place his hands on the wound. [B][I]Tempest Song:[/B][/I] It is known as Leviathan?s summoning song and is the most difficult to learn; however, it is, by far, Kaiser?s favorite spell. Leviathan has the power to heal his companion and Kaiser, shoot a large pulse of water from his mouth, as well as constrict the enemies with his tail; his ultimate power has yet to be discovered. But, when calling this dragon, Kaiser uses a large amount of energy and therefore only uses this spell as a last resort. [B][I]Arctic Knives:[/B][/I] A simple spell that allows Kaiser to throw icy knives of water at the enemy and pierce them. If it doesn?t pierce them, the frigidity of the knives that hit them will begin to freeze their bodies. [b]Skill Level-[/b] As far as skills go, Franz has played the game since it first came out. Being the game-frenzy fanatic, he owns nearly all of the Elements games, including the new Elements VI Online, but has yet to find Elements III. His current level is in the high levels.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=#CD6619]Now, wait just one cotton-pickin' minute here, there's too many questions I'm stuck with, like: Why did Sakura call Change by her real name and not by her codename? Who's Bon Bon- could he/she/it be someone who Change and Sakura met? And, and, and...well, I'm out of questions but still... Anyways, JJ, you've outdone yourself. I found this chapter a bit more mellow than the other ones, but it was still a good one...even if other people didn't think so XP. I wonder if the next chapter will have suspense. Now that I think about it, I wonder if this entire story has been about suspense, blood-lust, killing, gore, and sibling rivalry to the extreme? Oh how it hurts my head x_X. But, nonetheless, wundebar! Can't wait for the next arc and possibly new characters![/size][/color]
