[COLOR=Blue]Jon walked through the hallways on his way to his first class while pondering about his new abilities. Suddenly, time seemed to dilate as his hyper-analytical ability emerged. He saw a senior to his left with his hand behind his back. Then translucent images of that person emerged, one of them showing the senior pulling out a straw and shooting a spitball at Jon. At the same time, he noticed a person passing him that smirked as he did so. Several possibilities emerged and the most likely one was to put a "Kick Me" sign on Jon's back. "[I]How lame...[/I]" Jon thought as he reacted. He spun to avoid the sign as well as dodge the spitball. He nonchalantly faced forward and continued to walk towards his class. Then the intercom called out: "ATALANTA HUNTER - TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE IMMEDIATELY." "REIS TERRAS-Principal's office NOW." "ARIA KAZE - COME TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE IMMEDIATELY." "ALEX MOORE - TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE IMMEDIATELY." Then: "JONATHAN TYLYNN - TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE IMMEDIATELY." "What in...might as well see what's going on..." Jon thought to himself as he adjusted his glasses and proceeded towards the Principal's Office.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue]Skipper watched as his niece continued to innocently make the soup. He knew things were getting worse, but like all leaders, he had to project optimism to everyone else. "Kinna, once you let the soup boil, fill up them buckets over there with fresh river water. Be nice to help out Sister Franc and Sistine with some chores," Skipper called out. Kinna laughed as she responded, "That's only because you want to be the first to 'sample' vittles in the Abbey kitchens, Uncle." Skipper expressed a mock look of shock, "Me? Sampling their vittles and all that? Spare me the thought!" They laughed as the day moved along. Then Skipper asked, "Been practicing your slinging?" Kinna frowned a little, "Somewhat, but you know how it is at the Abbey. They generally discourage that sort of thing." Skipper drew out his sling and a pouch of stones, "Best time right now. I'll sling first, you try to hit it." Kinna pulled out her sling and whirled it ready. Skipper spun his sling until he let loose the stone in it. It flew up into the air and Kinna eyed it. Then she let loose a stone and it flew straight up at Skipper's. But it missed by about an armlength. "Aww..." Kinna said. Skipper gestured for her to sling a stone up. She did so and it flew up high. Without hesitation, Skipper whirled his sling around and let fly his stone. It flew up and smacked Kinna's stone in mid-air with a sharp crack. "Don't worry. Just remember to sling the stone towards where your target is going, not where it is at the moment," Skipper explained. "Okay, thanks. Oh, the soup is almost done!" Kinna cried out. The two otters laughed as they continued lounging around in a carefree manner.[/COLOR] OOC: I like your entry, Rhian. No complaints here. ^^

Oh, if you're gonna start an underground thread, I can help since I was bored one night and I compiled ALL the spells used in the three main TV series including their name, incantations for some, and their effects. And maybe you should add Sylphiel to the original signups if you want someone new to take that role. I think it's best if we start off with what all of us Slayers fanatics know, but it may be pretty cool if we continue into our own storyline. ;)

Ack, I forgot about how a season in Redwall is a year age-wise. >_< In general, it IS one season = one year by age. Gah, gonna edit ASAP or Skipper is gonna be old as someone's grandfather. ;0;

;0; I know what I'm getting into...joining a Slayers RP as Zel, run by a Zel fangirl, and with her playing as Lina Inverse, the Bandit-killer, Dragon-spooker, a danger to all that lives, etc. etc. :p

[COLOR=Blue]Name: Zelgadis Graywords Age: 18 (i think) Gender: Male Class: Warrior/Sorceror Magic: Shamanism (Elemental/Spiritual) Magic Weapon: Two-handed sword. Appearance: [URL=http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Gulf/4517/Zelgadis011.jpg]Pic[/URL] Personality: Generally a cold, heartless, and serious person, Zelgadis doesn't care for anyone or anything. He also avoids people, especially large crowds. This may be due to his sensitivity concerning his appearance. He will also stop at nothing to attain his goals and uses other people, whether they are enemies or allies, to do so. Bio: Zelgadis grew up as an aspiring young swordsman, constantly trained himself to be stronger. His grandfather/greatgrandfather(??) offered to make him stronger and Zel was eager to, not knowing the price he would have to pay. He was turned into a chimera, a mix of human, golem, and demon. He did become stronger in both physical and magical capacities...but at the cost of his human form. Years went by after his transmutation while he constantly trained himself even more not only in the way of the sword, but also in various magics such as black, white, and Shamanism, which he excels at. But he also journeyed around to search for a cure to turn him back to human form.[/COLOR] Hope that'll be fine. I'm not sure how Zel will fit into the beginning of this RP, so I kinda left that out of the bio at the moment. ^^;

Ooooo, a Redwall RP! [COLOR=Blue]Name: Skipper Age: 38 Seasons Species: Otter Appearance: Skipper has a powerful tail and is well built for an otter, since most of them are generally wiry and slim. His eyes are bright green, with dark brown fur, and a slight silver lining that runs down from his nose to his torso. He generally wears a snug dark-blue belted tunic, with a stone sling hanging from the belt. Bio: Like all his ancestors of the same namesake, Skipper is the leader of the otters in Mossflower. Unlike several of his predecessors, he was raised as a Dibbun at Redwall Abbey. He grew up there until he reached the age where he could venture out into the rivers and to earn his place among the otters. He trained himself until he swam faster than any other otter in the tribe and was also an expert in the preferred otter weapons, the two-sided otter javelin and the sling. When Kinna was born, Skipper was extremely fond of his niece and decided that she also should grow up in the wonderous Redwall Abbey. Even though she gave the caretakers at Redwall grief as a Dibbun, she was always delighted when her uncle came to visit. Skipper gave her the occasional high speed river swim, by having Kinna hold tightly onto him as he swam swiftly through the currents. However, things didn't remain so calm and peaceful when the the Summer of Disappearing Fruit arrived and the events that happened early during that season. He loved Abbot Jericho throughout his life, as a Dibbun to his current position as Skipper of the Otters, so his death was a blow to him. He was also devastated when fellow comrade and Redwall Champion, Nedles, fell in battle against a large bandit army not more than three creature lengths away from him. Currently, his tribe and their age-old allies, the Guosim shrews, are separately scouting around all of Mossflower to see how bad the season treated the land and the gentlebeasts that live around the area.[/COLOR] Um, I hope this is okay. I'm not sure about the part when Nedles fell in battle, so tell me if I need to modify this. ^^ Oh, and Rhian, I hope this bio doesn't contradict anything you put for Kinna. EDIT: Okay, fixed the age. Now if only everyone else will follow suit. ^^

Sounds interesting. Hope you still got room. ^^ [COLOR=Blue]Name: Jonathan Tylynn Age: 17 Sex: Male Appearance: A tall yet slim caucasian teen, seemingly appears almost frail. He has blue/green eyes and dyed his brown hair into a deep blue color. Personality: A quiet and intelligent person, Jon earns the highest marks in his class. He's generally calm and never gives in to anger and sorrow. He has a habit of analyzing any situation or problem to the point where he has a solution plus several other alternative paths to solve the problem. History: Born a single child, Jon was gifted with a high intelligence from the very start. His parents encouraged him to do well in academics and he delivered. But his parents died in a car accident when he was ten years old and had to live with his uncle. His uncle didn't care about Jon and was gone most of the time, working graveyard shifts at a manufacturing plant. Jon simply drowned himself in science, technology, and mathematics books as well as attend classes, since that's how he deals with problems. By the age of 17, Jon had already blazed through the mathematics and science curriculum. He was constantly picked on by those with less intelligence and more brawn, but he dealt with them easily, having trained himself with several karate and other martial arts texts. But when that fateful day, when the comet passed the Earth, Jon had a severe pain in his head so he tried taking Advil and getting some sleep to alleviate the pain. When he was on his way to school, several bullies came to harass him. One of them threw a punch at him, but right before that bully did so, Jon experienced something unusual. He saw the bully, as well as faint duplicate representations, showing all the possibilities based on the bully's position, stance, and strength. Jon dodged the punch, since he knew exactly where and how it was going to hit and thoroughly knocked him out with a chop to the bully's neck. Realizing he was going to be late to school, Jon ran towards school, which was still a mile away. Then suddenly, Jon felt a surge of energy and before he knew it, he was at the door of his first class. Later, he went to check with a doctor and found out he wasn't alone in the emergence of these powers... Power: Enhanced calculating/analyzing abilities as well as the ability to mentally boost his metabolism and musculature, increasing his speed temporarily 15-20 fold. Power Holder: His glasses.[/COLOR] Hope that'll be sufficient.

Hmm...sounds like an interesting idea. I tried a somewhat original Gundam RPG by creating my own universe in that respect. (see sig) No signups yet after one day. T_T But yeah, I may be interested in joining yours but for one thing... Post you recruitment thread in the Adventure Inn... ;)

[QUOTE=Otaku Princess][color=Green]Well, being financially strapped, I haven't had the pleasure of purchasing the OVA, but I have been watching R.O.D. the TV, and I really like it. Maybe around New Year's I could afford to buy the OVA. [/color][/QUOTE] I'm currently at the reverse situation. (got the OVA, can't get the TV series yet) T_T *looks at dwindling bank account* I heard about R.O.D. about a month and half ago, both the OVA and the TV series. So I finally went to the nearest Suncoast and got the OVA and watched it right when I got home....Whoa. I can't really comment on the OVA since pretty much most of the previous posters already covered the same grounds but the animation, plot and character designs/development was just awesome. Oh, and to answer Otaku Princess, you gotta see the OVA to understand that. But i'll briefly explain without giving away too much (i hope): [spoiler]Ms. Deep was one of the I-Jin, (bad guys in R.O.D.) the cloned and enhanced Mata Hari. She was the one who was friends with Yomiko. In the third episode of the OVA, the boss created second Ms. Deep, who had to fight her 'good' clone. The 'evil' clone lost and had memory loss due to oxygen deprivation. That's why that Ms. Deep has mental problems.[/spoiler]

OOC: Ok, this is my very first RP and I hope it goes well. As you're about to read, I basically created my own Gundam universe, using similar plots from other series. O_O; [CENTER][COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=4][U]Gundam Blade[/U]:[/SIZE][/COLOR] [COLOR=Navy][SIZE=2]Rise of the Judicators[/SIZE][/COLOR][/CENTER] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=SeaGreen] Earth space, Dark side of the Moon, unknown sector... "Okay, come on, Lieutenant...spill the beans. Why are we guarding this egghead facility on this godforsaken dark side of the moon?" a young pilot said over the comm. "*sigh* After I tell you this, you better shut the hell up, Private! I wasn't given full details but this...Project "Judicator" will supposedly give us Mediators the edge against both the CPs and the Double D's. Some new line of mobile suits with equal power to at least 50 frontline military mobile suits," the lieutenant answered. "Holy crap! That'd be some **** once they finish! Any idea when they'll be done?" the young private asked. "Nope, they don't tell me anything 'bout progress. Supposedly has gone on for 'bout 3 years already. Might even have a prototype," the lieutenant responded while eyeballing his viewscreens. "Sweet! Maybe we can- *beep! beep! beep!* Hey! I got a squad of hostile mobile suits on sensors! Coming in at vector 237, at 34 counter-spin!" the private shouted. "Crap. This place was supposed to be secure and out of view from any of the colony nations...sensors are giving specific profiles...Double D Stiletto-class mobile suits, yeah, full squad. Arm all weapons, alert the facility!" the lieutenant said as he armed and maneuvered his Crusader heavy assault mobile suit towards the incoming enemy. "Got it...dammit! Long-range comm's jammed! I'm arming my Spread-shot autocannon and Longinus missiles!" the private said as he joined his commanding officer. The incoming Stilettos transformed out of their Flight Mode and assumed battle formation. Each one was armed with a rapid-fire beam spray rifle and various sub-weapons. Eight of them headed toward the two Crusader suits, while the other four dove in toward the facility with blazing speed. "They're firing on the facility, jeez, here, have some of this!" the private shouted as he pulled his right joystick trigger. Fragmentation shells flew toward the Stilettos but they merely strafed out of the way and returned fire. Green beams traced in towards the private's mobile suit, but he managed to dodged half and block the other half of the barrage with his tempered shield. "Hang on there, private!" the lieutenant shouted as he blocked a few beam shots and then blasted a Stiletto into pieces with a salvo of large Longinus anti-armor missiles. Then he noticed something else entering sensor range. "[I]What the hell is a scavenger ship doing here?[/I]" the lieutanant thought to himself as the fight continued.[/COLOR][/FONT] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- [COLOR=Teal][FONT=Tahoma] Plotline~~~ It is the year ASC (After Settlement of Colonies) 233. It's been over two centuries since the Earth population migrated out to various colonies around Earth, its moon, and Mars. While Mars just became a self-sufficient colony through terraforming efforts, the situation back home has grown increasingly tense, especially with the introduction of the military mobile suit back in ASC 189. Two major colony nations have arisen, a collection of colonies around Earth, and the peace that everyone knew has shattered. The CP (Colonial Protectorate) wants to merely protect itself from encroachment from other colonies and Earth. But they've also made attempts in seizing the resources from the Moon in order to expand their infrastructure. The DD (Doran Dominion) supposedly wants to claim all of the Earth area in order to maintain order and to strengthen humanity in a united front. The Mediators are an organization created by people who live on the last bit of habitable land on Earth and the remnants of the United Nations. They also run resource collection operations on the Moon. They are generally peacekeepers with some access to former 'lost technology' from Earth, but they aren't very effective due to their low numbers. The rest of the people are in neutral colonies, scavengers trying to make a living, or the occasional pirate gang looking for places to raid. In ASC 230, the Mediators decided to commence Project 'Judicator,' a project that uses all the lost technology available to the Mediators to develop incredibly powerful mobile suits. This will allow the Mediators to be able to maintain the peace between the colonies. However in ASC 233...the facility is under attack by Doran Dominion forces. And a scavenger ship inadvertantly flies near the facility...the crew of that ship will affect the fate of Earth and the colonies...for better or worse.[/FONT][/COLOR] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [COLOR=Blue]Ok, this is my first RP, so cut me some slack. >_> I will need five people to sign up to take the roles of the pilots in the scavenger ship. I'll be the head scavenger pilot out of six. Anyone care to guess what sorta mobile suits you'll find in the facility? :p If anyone else wants to be in this RP if the pilot slots are full, you can be part of the scavenger ship crew, or various pilots on any of the three sides in this universe. [B][U]Oh, another important thing. I'll be starting an underground thread once I get at least two signups. The thread will have information about the Mediators, DD, and CP as well as the mobile suits they use. You can modify your bio accordingly after.[/U] [/B] (No point in creating an underground thread if no one signs up, ne?) >_< Signups~~~ Name: Age: 16+ Gender: Appearance: Pic or description. Personality: Bio: (Once the underground thread is up, you can mod your bio to say which mobile suit you generally use before finding the Gundams) Gundam name: (try to come up with original names) ;) Weapons: (List each weapon with a brief description for each; Nothing excessive like nuclear missiles and super beam cannons or whatever. I'll PM you if it does reach that category. Oh, and you can have around 2-6 weapons.) Description: (Oops, forgot this) Role: (A sorta mobile suit bio, like what sort of role the suit takes: General, Melee, Heavy support, Defense, Sniper, Stealth, etc. etc.)[/COLOR] Um, hope people sign up for this RP and that it'll go well. ^^; EDIT: Okay, here's my bio. [COLOR=Blue]Name: Xi-Zhuan Li (his buddies call him Leon) Age: 28 Gender: Male Appearance: Leon is about 5' 11'' and 177 pounds. He has brown asian eyes, pale skin, and black, scraggly hair, but he dyed it also with blue streaks. His muscular arms show that he works out a lot, especially the upper body. Leon generally wears a dark-green combat vest and a T-shirt underneath. He also wears baggy mechanics pants as well as heavy-duty boots with ferro-ceramic plating. Personality: Under non-combat situations, Leon generally acts all nonchalantly and talks softly to people in general. He has a knack for intuitively finding good salvage and willingly shares the credits earned to every one in his group. In combat, he's level-headed but occasionally gets recklessly aggressive in combat with other scavengers or pirates. His luck and his piloting skills is what keeps him alive. Bio: Leon was born under poor parents in a poor neutral colony orbiting the Moon. This colony, MNC - 12, was barely sufficient at the time and everyone living there had utilitarian duties in order to make the colony prosper. However, by the age of 18 when the colony just celebrated the completion of their fully autonomous support system, pirates came in and attacked the colony. The colony didn't have any defenses whatsoever, and thousands died in the first five minutes of the raid. Leon tried to get everyone to safety until he saw both of his parents blown away by an autocannon blast. He quickly got into a Worker-class construction mobile suit that he learned to pilot at age 14 and sluggishly moved towards the nearest pirate suit. Using a power vibro-saw, Leon scored his first mobile suit killed by bisecting the pirate in half. He quickly herded the survivors into armored shelters and then stood his ground against 7 enemy mobile suits. Leon then charged at them, but his saw got blasted away with his suit's right arm, his main thrusters were also shot out, and then another suit shot missiles at the outer wall. The pirates quickly jetted away from the hole but Leon was sucked out since his thrusters were wrecked. The force of the vaccuum knocked Leon around until he blacked out. He woke up later, finding himself in a cot, on a rickedy scavenger ship. The ship's captain, Jeb Arlerain, asked a few questions and then told Leon the bad news. The pirates got away, but only after destroying the colony and killing everyone. After recovering from the shock of the colony's destruction a few days later, Jeb wanted Leon to join his group. Leon agreed, since he had nowhere else to go, nothing else to do. By the age of 25, Leon took over command of Jeb's ship, 'The Fixer-Upper,' after Jeb retired and was respected by all his crew. Then, in the year ASC 233, he chose a random sector on the dark side of the moon, persuading his crew that this location will be the jackpot. Leon has no idea how right....and how wrong he will be.... [B]Gundam Name[/B]: Paladin Gundam [B]Weapons[/B]: Long Plasma Burst Rifle/Energy SwordLance - A long and powerful beam rifle with its muzzle in between two prongs that jut forward. The weapon can assemble the 'prongs' together and energize the weapon into a massive SwordLance weapon. Energy Tower Shield - in its unactivated form, it is a small, armored dome that is attached to the forearm. When activated, projectors extend out to four corners and then energized to manifest the large tower shield. Generally, this is used when the Paladin Gundam uses its SwordLance. 4 Omni-Directional Charged Particle Cannons - These small dome-like weapons are placed at the tips of each wing, in the back of the Gundam. They use micro-gravitational manipulators to shoot out the particle beam a short distance, then bend them to whatever target is designated. The beams cannot be 'bent' after it's been directed at a target. [B]Description[/B]: The Paladin Gundam is generally a white color throughout the entire body, but it is also accented with blue and silver highlights at the joints and the limbs. Its wings are a silver gray color and fairly slim design. They are arranged in the back of the Gundam, coming out from the quintiple thrusters backpack. The head is equipped with sensors, communications, ECM, and two Vulcan chainguns. It also has three 'horns' on its forehead, two pointing up and outward while the third one points straight up. [B]Role[/B]: The first of the Judicator series, the Paladin Gundam is meant as a strong overall close and long ranged mobile suit. Using lost tech synthesizers, Luna-Titanium, NeoSteel and other various metals, the Mediator R&D division armored all of the Gundams with their namesake, the Gundanium superalloy.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue]Sefir sighed as he watched Yutarin fly off and then headed into the abandoned building with Mike where the remaining Mystics were assembled at. "[I]Sef, I don't want to be a bother, but what was with Yutarin...in that...that form?[/I]" Mike asked telepathically. "[I]I have no idea....I hope we'll get an explanation soon though. He's on his way to find Leya...don't worry though, he genuinely cares for her, that much I trust in him,[/I]" Sefir responded. Mike nodded as entered a large room. "I know all of you have had a bad time these past few hours...and I'm relieved that you're all okay," Sefir said as he entered the room. Many Mystics got up and nodded as their tensions were relieved somewhat by the survival of their leader. Some others got up with less enthusiasm. Ivan was off to the corner, meditating. "Not all of us though...we must've lost almost half of the Mystics!" "We out to be planning some sort of payback against the Crimson Shadow and those shifty Dead Moons!" "Don't you care for those who died?!" Sefir simply stood throughout the protests and the outrage until he collapsed onto a nearby crate. He looked wearily at everyone, shaking his head. "I know I probably don't feel the same amount of pain as those who lost brothers, sisters, and friends. But I assumed responsibility for each and every one of you, every Mystic. Every loss we took...it stabbed me deep into my soul. I do care for each and every one of you, including those who died. But planning some sort of payback is not right. Look around you, think of those who wanted to fight back, to increase the conflict. They're dead or grievously wounded. I'm not saying that they did the wrong thing, heck, when I saw Calypso's pierced body, I wanted to destroy anything and everything in my way. But when I thought of all of you, those that made it, your parents, your homes, schools, people I know and work with...I realized that vengeance would come at a high cost," Sefir softly said. Many of the Mystics quieted down and comforted each other. "For now...stay alive and be well. Continue to live on for those who cannot. Not to destroy everything we want to protect," and on that somber note, the Mystics rested, grabbed whatever food and water Sef had stored in the building. Several of them practice using their abilities, vowing to become stronger, not for payback, but for the protection of everyone they loved. "[I]Now I see why you're such a strong leader...and no, no visions yet. Leya's stronger at that sort of thing... [/I]" Ivan said telepathically. "Sef? Let me look at that..." a young Mystic girl said. "Huh?" Sef asked quizzically, as he looked down. He body was sliced up and stabbed by Alex's daggers and Kitzume's sword, as well as Kitzume's wind attacks. He shrugged slightly as he rested face up on the large crate he was on. "Oh...ok 'Doctor' Alice." Alice giggled slightly as she began to heal him. Mike set up a lookout schedule and organized other things he already knew Sefir would've done. Recuperation was the main agenda...for now.[/COLOR] OOC: Where the heck are the people who play Mike and Ivan? O_O; And I have no idea what that whole messup thing between SB and the Captain was about, but I'm assuming that it's resolved now?

[COLOR=Blue]Sefir looked up at the huge dragon, a bit wary of this unexpected development. He knew through telepathy that this dragon was Yutarin, but generally building-sized monsters wasn't something you saw everyday. He turned to look at the unconscious form of Kitzume...but he could not attack an enemy that was down. Sef turned back to Yutarin, climbed on his back and said softly, "Take me to the Mystics now....and help me cover our tracks..."[/COLOR] OOC: Sorry this was shorter than it usually is, but I wasn't sure what to do with these new developments so far. This is so Captain Sparrow can continue his part. ^^

You do realize that the Master Chief and the SPARTAN IIs weren't just enhanced by the suits, but by other biological modifications. Ah well...if I get to blow ******* up in the RP, then I'm in. XD Name: First Lieutanant Sean 'Skyshot' Berkaran Age: 26 Gender: Male Appearance: Royal Blue Personality: A fairly neutral guy, Sean only speaks when there's a reason to. Otherwise, he just shuts up and lets his actions speak for himself. Style: Earth Favored weapon: [URL=http://www.ogresnet.com/halo/pics/w_battlerifle.jpg][COLOR=Purple]Battle Rifle

Aww...ah well. I understand though, I also had times where I was way to busy even to browse in forums. Well, at least make sure you remember all of the people who signed up. ^^

OOC: Scary. O_O I just wish that you didn't make Sefir act like he would mock Kitzume or anyone else for that matter. [COLOR=Teal]Sefir was unsure of what was currently going on. Here, he and Kitzume were fighting until Alex with his useless guns showing up. The Kitzume impaled him and blew him far and away. "Would you like to die now?" Kitzume asked as she rose up into the air. Sefir felt an unusual power beginning to flow in her...something impure, tainted...seeping anger and hatred. Regardless, he calmed down despite the wounds that Kitzume inflicted on him and the strange upsurge of power that Kitzume is experiencing. He threw out the images of death and destruction out of his mind and focused on what truly was important to him. Leya, Ivan, Yutarin, Mike, Destiny, Calypso, Sandy and the other Mystics....people he worked with...colleagues at his job...classmates from past schools...his father...and his mother.... He thought about those he can protect and those who died. He knew it was his duty to make sure every single death that occurred was not in vain. He had to protect the people he loved and the places he knew so well. The wind flowed around him seamlessly as his pure strengths emerged. Sef rose into the air as well, knowing full well that he must stop all who would hurt those he wished to protect. "Crossing the Rubicon...." Sef whispered to himself. He spun his spear and the wind flowed with his movements. Then he turned to face Kitzume as he mind read her briefly. "If you think you flow with the wind....then why does it cry out in pain and sorrow?" he asked. Kitzume faced him and softly said, "I see. You truly deserve to die...." as she took in more and more power to unleash her true destructive might. Sefir merely braced himself and knew with full conviction that he had to win this fight, regardless of the cost.[/COLOR]

If this does stray off the original storyline, then this RP will be quite interesting. ^^ Name: Adelbert Steiner Age: 33 Gender: Male Appearance:[URL=http://www.azursoft.fr/gameup.com/dossiers/ff9/modeladelbert.jpg][COLOR=RoyalBlue]Clunky XD[/COLOR][/URL] Personality: (also bio? o.O ) Steiner is the Captain of Queen Brahn's only male regiment, the Knights of Pluto. He makes sure things are in order, like making sure his men aren't slacking, etc., but he sees his primary duty to protect Princess Garnet. When the Princess ran away with the Tantalus thief band, he recklessly followed her, even smashing into a tower wall in the process. He is loyal to the Princess and is generally stern and strong. Though at first he acts like a harda**, once he gets to know people, he gives them the respect they deserve. Class: Knight. (I like swords :laugh: ) Oh, thanks for the extra bit of info Ohkami. ^^

[COLOR=Blue]Sefir hopped from rooftop to rooftop, augmented by his wind ability. When he got to where the Mystics were, he nearly fell into despair. Yutarin and the Crimson Shadow leader were duking it out until the Crimson had to retreat...but there were two massive elemental creatures battling each other. He also saw that both sides were killing each other. There was one specific person that got his attention who was killing members on both sides indiscriminately. "[I]That Dead Moon girl....[/I]" he thought to himself. But then he noticed Leya in the middle of all this, weeping profusely. He landed next to her and put a hand on her shaking shoulder. He received a brief flash, showing Leya's loss of control, Yutarin dueling with the Crimson Shadow, the massive deluge that nearly engulfed the area...death and destruction around him. "Leya..." Sefir said softly. She continued to sob as he knelt down and held her carefully from behind. "Please...answer me...." Unexpectedly, Leya turned and slashed at him. Sef managed to block most of the blade, but the tip cut his left wrist slightly. She looked at Sefir with eyes that displayed despair, outrage, and sadness. "This...this wouldn't have happened if we were more agressive...if we only had taken them down right after that bastard shot Destiny....if...if..." she broke down sobbing and shouting incoherent words. Sefir got up and swept around with the wind. He broke off all the fights going on between the Mystics and Crimson Shadow by blasting cars and light posts, blocking both sides' attacks. "Mystics, to the fallback spot....now" Sef said sternly. "What? Why?" "These bastards need to die!" "That person killed my sister!" "We should get rid of them, now and forever! "GO....NOW..." Sefir ordered in a tone none of the Mystics heard him use before. They regrouped and retreated. Crimson Shadow members tried to go after them, but Sefir managed to hold them all off with wind bursts and his spear. "[I]Mike...[/I]' Sef said telepathically. "[I]Yeah, boss?[/I]" Mike asked as he loaded a new clip into his Uzi. "[I]Bring Leya safely with you...please...I'm counting on you,[/I]" Sef requested. Mike nodded as he carefully picked Leya up and ran off with the other retreating Mystics. Sefir looked on after them and then turned back towards the enemy. "[I]Ivan...ah, you're near the Mystics. Please protect them...you may encounter Alex or other Crimson Shadow...[/I]" Sefir asked. Ivan gave an equivalent of a psychic 'nod' as Sefir channeled energy to himself. The remaining Crimson Shadow began to get angry again and powered up to take on the lone Mystic. Sefir noticed a young woman glaring at Leya, who was going further and further away, thanks to Mike. He also noticed the Dead Moon girl...Kitzume, looking eager for more death. "He's mine!" Kitzume shouted as she went down and shot out a massive gust of wind. Sefir barely blinked as the gust whirled around him. "You try to dominate the wind...that is why you will never master the wind..." Sefir said drolly. "I don't give a damn about mastering the wind!" Kitzume screamed out as she unleashed a blast of lightning. Sefir used the tip of his spear to absorb the electrical attack. He noticed that the angry girl, who apparently had a bone to pick with Leya, ran off towards the direction the Mystics were heading. Sefir tried to stop her, but he had to whirl his spear to deflect a multitude of bullets and spells. The Crimson Shadow grouped up to try to destroy him and Kitzume. Kitzume laughed as she dodged several bolts of elemental energy and then beheaded a few Crimson Shadow with a slicing gust of wind. She launched another massive gust of wind, intending to blow back more Crimsons to kill them with the impact against various buildings and obstacles. Sefir twitched slightly as the wind curved, only knocking out those Kitzume intended to kill. Kitzume turned toward Sef, infuriated. She drew her sword and charged toward Sefir. Despite his wounds, he unemotionally spun his spear into a defensive stance and concentrated energy even more than he ever had done in his life. CLANG! Sefir's spear tip connected with Kitzume's sword and Sef drew back and swung diagonally at her. She merely sidestepped as she prepared to charge again, this time augmented with her wind and lightning abilities. "Just because you have the power to kill and to dominate, it does not mean you are a powerful person..." Sefir said coldly as he braced himself for attacks coming from Kitzume AND the Crimson Shadow.[/COLOR] OOC: Apparently, everyone ignored the last paragraph in my previous post, saying the Mystics got to the fallback spot. >_< Ah well, hafta make due with what we got.

[quote name='Aqua']I made it easy for you. Your in my last post...you come to stop me and you reveasl your identity cuz I'm out of control ok. Is that easy for you....besides everyone decided to go all out on war...so basically thats whats happening everyone at war.lol[/quote] I was under the impression that the final conflict was gonna build up, maybe even Crimson Shadow and Mystics may unknowingly meet each other at their school/workplace. ....IT'S OUT OF CONTROL! >_>

Okay, time to make more use of this thread. XD SB, great entry and thanks for clarifying the increase in Alex's 'badass-ness.' Though you have to admit that I tried bring that out during the Sefir/Alex fight. ;) Um, Midnight Rush, I point to a quote in my post: [QUOTE=liubei013][COLOR=Blue] Taking advantage of Sefir's storm and Ivan's psychic shockwave, the Mystics managed to get out of the city and to their fallback spot relatively unharmed and undetected.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE] That generally meant ALL of them (and there aren't that many left anyways), maybe except for a few stragglers, not a score (20) of them. O_O; Just letting you know the intentions of that segment.

[COLOR=Blue]Alex smirked as Yutarin and Leya came back to help the rest of the Mystics. "[I]I'll deal with you two later...[/I]" he thought to himself. "Over my dead body, scum," Sefir quietly said. Alex continued to smirk and drew his pistol as he said, "So be it." BLAM! BLAM! The bullets raced towards Sefir's head but he barely twitched as the bullets were deflected by a wind gust. "Heh, I'm outta ammo anyways," Alex muttered as he tossed the pistol aside. He then drew his curved daggers and attempted to get a read on his opponent. But Sefir had shielded himself psychically, meaning that neither of them could really use their psychic abilities in this fight. Alex did the same as his held out his daggers, waving Sefir forward. Sefir whirled his spear and ran toward Alex. Alex grinned as their weapons crossed back and forth, move and counter-move, all in a blur of flashing blades and bodies. Calypso, Mike, Sandy, and a few other Mystics met up with Yutarin and Leya, as well as the other survivors. "Leya!" Calypso shouted as she ran up to her and the two friends hugged each other. The other Mystics talked for a bit, still unsure as to the situation. Then all the psychics heard a voice, "[I]Hey, Mystics, this is Ivan. I'm already at the fallback location. I will send out a psychic shockwave so no Crimson Shadows or Alex will be able to find us as you guys get to the place. But I also need a visual distraction of some sort so they can't follow all of you...[/I]" Yutarin thought for a moment, while looking down at his Arcana sword..."Hey, Leya..." "[I]Wait a second...Sefir is...what are you...Mystics, get ready to move immediately![/I]" Ivan called out urgently. Alex stepped back for a moment once again as well as Sefir. They both breathed heavily, exhausted somewhat by the duel so far. Then Sefir turned and barely heard Ivan's message despite his psychic protection. Alex also heard something from Ivan, but he couldn't hear the content. Suddenly, Sefir blew back Alex with a gust of wind. Alex gritted his teeth as he slid along the pavement and jabbed his daggers into the ground to prevent himself from being pushed back further. Sefir lept to the top of a small building and concentrated. [/COLOR] *FLASH* [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"Mother, does that mean I can control the wind?" an eight-year old Sefir asked. His mother smiled slightly as she shook her head, "No, you cannot truly harness the power of the wind through sheer force. If you sway with the wind, the wind will sway with you..." She gently swept her hands back and forth until a strong cyclone of air surrounded Sefir and her. Sefir was completely awed and amazed by the display.[/COLOR]*FLASH* [COLOR=Blue]"Omyonyku hashibasha wo sowaka..." Sefir began to chant, repeating the phrase over and over. "What the hell are you blabbing about? ARGH!" Alex screamed out as he lept up to the building rooftop and launched thrust after thrust with his daggers. Inexplicably, Sefir dodged his attacks with his eyes closed and still chanting. "Fight back, you Mystic pansy!" an infuriated Alex said as he continued to attack. "sowaka...Kudahei kilili shi sowaka....Feng Lei Iku!" Sefir finished his chant, lifted his arms into the air and stopped dodging Alex's attacks. Alex found the opening and slid in. He reached forward and stabbed Sefir in the lower right rib. But Sefir countered with a jab with the butt of his spear into Alex's jaw. He fell back as Sefir swept him even further with another gust of wind. "[I]...losing blood...I got to get out of here...at least the rest of the Mystics will be safe for a while,[/I]" Sefir thought to himself as he fell over the edge of the roof. Alex got up and rubbed his jaw for a moment, then he ran over to where Sefir fell and looked down at the street. There was no one there. Alex lifted the dagger that drew blood from Sef and examined it. "Whatever, I can draw the rest of his blood and the rest of the Mystics later." Elsewhere, the Mystics felt a tremendous flow of air building up around the entire area. A maelstrom swept through, lifted up dust, debris, car wrecks and anything else that wasn't fixed on the ground. "[I]Now![/I]," Ivan shouted. Calypso, Leya, and Mike got everyone moving quickly. The Crimson Shadow that were approaching the Mystics were blinded by the dust kicked up and some were killed as the wind sliced up their bodies. The psychics of that group tried to track the Mystics, but then a massive psycho shockwave stunned them. Taking advantage of Sefir's storm and Ivan's psychic shockwave, the Mystics managed to get out of the city and to their fallback spot relatively unharmed and undetected.[/COLOR] OOC: Didn't know I typed that long. o_O; Things kinda moved too fast, so I hope this segment will create a brief slowdown period so people will know wth is going on. Heck, even Aqua was getting confused. So don't go spoiling this *cough* SB *cough* :p OOC2: Captain Jack Sparrow is a cool name and I don't recall anyone trying to make fun of it directly or indirectly. :)

[COLOR=Blue]"[I]Things are moving way too fast...[/I]" Sefir thought to himself. Yutarin and Leya were out of his psychic range...he hoped Leya was all right. He turned to the newest Mystic, Ivan and said, "I need you to link up with Mike and Calypso, they're both psychics. Afterwards, you three work together to link up with all the remaining Mystics and get them safely to this location." Sefir sent a mental picture of a newly built, vacant office building to Ivan. "[I]Also, try to stay hidden from the Crimson Shadow. We just lost four Mystics due to one of them...Kitzume...former Dead Moon.[/I]' Ivan didn't show any reaction at all, he merely nodded but had to ask, "What about you?" "*sigh* I will go and break down the checkpoints set up by both the Crimson Shadow and criminal elements that have emerged. I'll open up the streets long enough so that both Mystics and civilians can get out," Sef explained as he assembled his spear. "Alright, but what about Mike and Calypso? Will they know I'm on their side?" Ivan asked. "Yeah, I sent a short message to them just now. And besides, they are both psychics, so they would know, even if I didn't tell them," Sefir said as he smirked. Ivan smiled slightly and then left to carry out Sef's instructions. Sef concentrated and reached out to every Mystic still alive amidst the chaos. "[I]Mystics, I have no idea why things have been moving fast as they have, but I want all of you to remain calm. Dead Moon has broken down and we have one, maybe two members join the Mystics. But some of you already know that two others have joined the Crimson Shadow. That doesn't matter right now. Ivan of the Dead Moon will coordinate with Mike and Calypso to get to our last hiding place. Don't get into any battles with the Crimson Shadow or any other hostiles right now. Just stay alive and don't stoop down to revenge. We'll get through this, have faith in me and in your friends.[/I]" Sefir then empowered the wind unto himself and whooshed out into the city. "Where'd they get all those guns?" a frightened teen asked his brother. "I don't know! But keep your earth shield up while I try to fire bolt them!" the teen's little brother said. The beleaguered Mystics were trying to hold out against the junior Crimson Shadows that were bombarding them with bullets as well as elemental spells. "Yeah! Die you weak bastards!" a female Crimson Shadow shouted as she charged up and launched icicles at the two Mystics. The icicles were still blocked by one of the Mystics' shield of rock, pavement, and dirt. Then bolts of fire shot back at her. She ducked behind an SUV and curses streamed from her and her compatriots. Clink! Clink! Clink! Both sides saw a trio of silver fist-sized spheres bounce into the no-man's land in between the two forces. Then each sphere opened up like petals of a flower...then an incredibly loud screech resonated throughout the block. WHEE-EEEE-EEE-EEE-EEE-EEE!!!! "Arrgghh, what the hell is that?" the girl shrieked. "Big brother, it hurts!" the little brother cried out, clasping his ears. "So many targets, so much ammo to use...hmm...I choose you kiddies!" BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! Round after round shot into the Crimson Shadow position. They couldn't defend themselves due to the overwhelming noise. The Crimson Shadow behind the SUV fell, heads blowing apart due to the mysterious intruder's explosive rounds. The only survivor was trying to hold his guts in, screaming in pain. "Who...who the hell are you?!" the boy cried out. "No worries now...damn freak...BLAM!" the woman capped the boy and then turned toward the two Mystics at the other part of the street. She lifted both of her modified Colt .45 pistols and unloaded a round each...one for each freak. Just as the rounds were about to hit, a powerful gust of wind deflected the shots so they just missed the brothers. The young woman turned toward the source of the wind, seeing a young, blue-haired man wielding a spear. "Don't do that again..." the man, Sefir, said coldly. "I'm Natasha...and I want all of you freaks to die!" she shouted, firing her pistols as she said 'die!' The bullets zipped toward Sefir, but he merely used the wind and his spear to slow down and divert the bullets away. He then swept the grenades into the nearest brick wall, where they shattered and was silenced. Sefir went to the two boys, who were just recovering from the excrutiating sound. "..ow...Sef!" "Sefir!" they both cried out when they saw their leader. Sefir gave them a gracious smile and sent a psychic message to them. "[I]Okay, get out of here. Meet up with Mike, he's only 5 blocks south-southeast from here. Try to avoid any more fights and stay alive.[/I]" They both nodded and ran off into the side-streets as Natasha looked at them curiously. She then smirked, "Ah, you're their leader...this should be interesting." Sefir turned toward the cold-blooded killer and tried to get a mind read out of her...."Interesting indeed...you are wearing a psychic wave supressor." Natasha holstered her pistols and took off her special earphones that blocked the specific frequency her grenades blasted out. She then drew a rapier and beckoned to Sefir. Sefir whirled his spear around and went into a fighting stance, tip low and toward Natasha while holding the other half of the spear high behind him.[/COLOR] OOC: I had to bring Natasha in sometime. Oh, and since Sefir is pulling back and mobilizing the Mystics, they won't act quite so confused and helpless now. >_>

[COLOR=Blue]"[I]What was that? That...that freaky looking dragon wing that sprouted from Yutarin's back? Whatever, here's another damned Crimson Shadow, maybe the one that killed Destiny[/I]," Leya thought to herself. She drew her Dou sword and whirled it against the ground. The ground then shook and columns of earth rose up to attempt to impale the black cloaked newcomer. "[I]Oh man...[/I]" Aaron thought to himself as he easily deflected the earth attack with a sweep of his sword, which launched up a wall of fire in front of him. He then returned to his fighting stance and beckoned towards Yutarin. "Okay, let's fight," Yutarin said as he held up his Arcana sword and charged it with lightning energy. He saw that the unknown Crimson Shadow also charged his own broadsword with lightning. "Ah...fire/lightning elementalist or warlock...this should be interesting." "Dammit, I had him!" Leya yelled. Yutarin merely shook his head. "He wants a one-on-one fight, so be it," Yutarin said quietly as he also positioned himself into a fighting stance. Elsewhere, Ivan was only a block away from Sef's place when he felt a psychic shockwave hit the area. He realized Sef was hit by a mind blast, probably from Alex. He turned around and ran back into Sef's place and saw him lying on the kitchen floor, blood running from his face. Ivan concentrated for a moment..."[I]He was hit hard...but not just from Alex...also indirectly from other powerful presences...Crimson Shadow![/I]" He continued to probe Sef's mind and discovered that Sef's mental restraints were damaged and Ivan dwelled further into his mind. The shock of what he found caused him to lapse out of his probing. "[I]Damn...I doubt anyone, not the Mystics, the Dead Moon, nor the Crimson Shadow have any idea of the scale of this guy's power...he's been holding back this entire time...but why[/I]?" Ivan thought curiously. He carefully dived back into Sef's mind...and what he saw once again the image that gave the initial shock. The vision was Chicago, rendered into ruins and it was all caused by a casual sweep of Sefir's wind ability. [COLOR=SeaGreen]*FLASH* Ivan knew he was receiving an image through his foresight ability and saw the following: A vengeful group of the Mystics fighting the Crimson Shadow...Alex and Kitzume were fighting alongside the Crimson! He saw that the wiccans of both sides were already either dead or unconscious. Both sides tore the city apart as they tried to annihilate each other. Sefir was saying something sternly at the Crimson Shadow leader, who looked blurry in the foresight image. Then Sefir grew angry and held his hands into the air. A maelstrom of wind and debris fell upon everyone and the city, devasting everything. Ivan looked around and saw nothing but ruins and broken bodies everywhere. He saw that one of the Crimson Shadow had an ebony mask on, but it was cracked open and seeped blood. Ivan went to get a closer look when...*FLASH*[/COLOR] Ivan shook his head and pondered at the vision. "[I]That was an unusual foresight...I usually get flashes pertaining to near-future events...nothing like this though...[/I]" He heard Sefir groan and went to help him, more wary then ever before.[/COLOR] OOC: Hope that didn't jump the gun or anything. ^^ EDIT OOC: Just in case there may be some confusion, Ivan merely saw a possible future through Sefir and Sef's unknown power potential. Nothing really happened yet at the present time. If you want me to edit/change or clarify anything in this post, post on the underground thread.

[COLOR=Blue]Ivan and Sefir were setting stuff up in the kitchen when they both felt intense emotions coming from Yutarin and Leya. Ivan was already at the doorway. "I'll go and see if they need help!" "Ok, I'll join you soon," Sefir said as he opened his mind. He sensed Calypso, Mike, Sandy, Leya, and the other Mystics. Only Leya was in some trouble, but Yutarin seemed to be dealing with the Crimson with ease. But when he got to a certain area in town, he ran into a powerful psychic wall. "[I]What the...?! Such powerful presences...the Crimson Shadow are assembling! And two others...Dead Moon[/I]" Sefir saw a flash, a dagger, blood, and a evil grin he remembered seeing when Alex attacked them. Alex turned toward Sefir in the mind probe and said, "[I]Uh, uh, no peeking here...you and your petty Mystics are going down...haaa[/I]!" Suddenly after a flash of light, Sefir got propelled back and collapsed onto the kitchen floor, blood flowing from his mouth, nose, and eyes. He weakly reached out to all the Mystics, "[I]Crimson Shadows are assembling. I have no idea what for but everyone be careful...[/I]" Sefir then surrendered to unconsciousness.[/COLOR]

If possible, hold an anime movie/series marathon. That is, if you can afford to do big things like that. And yeah, bringing manga into the school, especially now more and more libraries are stocking up on manga, both old and new. You could also set up viewing of anime of really various genres. Show different and new things that even those DBZ/Yu-Gi-Oh fanatics might begin to enjoy. Hope these suggestions help. If not...well...um, best of luck.
