Yeah it took me a while to come up with my character... I'm kinda used to being rushed around to finish my character and start the rp/story right away. Thanks for the help, btw.ThatSideCharacter said:@Bichelle oh. well if you could, please move your character here, so it can be approved by the owner (just copy and paste then delete the one on the character sign-up tab.)
Also just a quick skim of your character, it needs trait point distributions. Seeing as how your character is a first year she starts off with 10 points. Your traits can either be something beneficial to combat, wisdom or cooking even. Basically every trait you have will be scaled from 1-5, 5 being the strongest. and if your character has a special weapon/item (in your case you seem to just carry regular daggers so it seems fine as it) you scale the points on that weapon/item as well.
And take your time with it. I took about a full day making my own character. There's no rush here

I was going to explain why she was flightless in the story, but I can add a bit in the description, too! Thanks for the tweaks, btw!Duwang said:@Bichelle I don't have any real gripes with your character and your character is pretty much in range of being accepted, though there are a few points that stand out to me.
Like I mentioned to @rooi, the school is home to a great variety of folks. What I really mean is, I didn't let her/him/whatever be the special elf so it wouldn't be fair if I let you do it. Looking back, I'll let the both of you decide how you two want to do it, since I don't really have elves all too fleshed out right now.
Also, why is your character noted as a winged elf in your race? What exactly does that mean? You might want to add some brief description. If she flies, you might want to make that into a trait. If she doesn't fly, you might get some more background room to explain why she's flightless.
@KAmber You may want to re-evaluate what you want for your character. Do you really want your character to be a human? You can have a description for your character's race without making it a power, probably in a little blurb underneath his Race. I don't have an other tab because most people never use it, but you can add one if that's your style.
My biggest gripe is that you listed Mysterious as one of your traits. It's rather vague, meaning it could do absolutely nothing (meaning you'd have wasted 4 points), or you could use it to do absolutely everything (which just wouldn't be fun, because then why would you have the other traits?). I might let you have it though, if you can explain what you intend exactly to use it for. If I were you, I would also separate all my traits so they could be easier to read.
I also feel like your character was a little lazily written compared to that of the other players, which isn't very much a criticism since I intended the RP to be casual and you demonstrate at least the ability to use a spell checker which is really a lot more than a decent number of people can do. I still think you should put a little bit more effort.
On that note, you could probably expand on your physical description. You can, for instance, instead of referring to something, type out exactly how you want it. If you want to add a little picture just to make sure people know what you mean, that's okay too. Also keep in mind that First Year students sleep in rooms with 20+ other students in their House.
You could also expand on your character's personality. For instance, you could describe how exactly your character is insane.
You do have a little typo in your background as well. "Send" should be "spend".
You might want to let me read what you have for the winged elves first before posting it.Bichelle said:Hold up, so do I put the description in and then put my character with the others?
Okie doke, I'll start typing it down now, then.Duwang said:You might want to let me read what you have for the winged elves first before posting it.
Is this better? I can't really give a good description for a Xelor, so you'll probably have to look that up.KAmber said:Name: Albert 'Timey-wimey' Harebourg
Gender: Boy
Age: Nobody can tell.
Race: Xelor(Wakfu TV show)
A Xelor is like a human, but born with ugly scars on their face. They're skilled with all mechanical objects, and build clockwork masks to hide their face. More often than not, when they're annihilated, they gain the power to control machines, and rebuild their body. However, once that power is unlocked, it can be used any number of times.
House: Kanniainen
Year: 2
Physical Appearance: Dresses in a blue or red coat, with a black bow tie. He has the same mechanical face as a Xelor and always has a pocketwatch which he speaks to every now and then. His eyes are green, and turn blue when he is angry or upset. His white gloves are nearly always fiddling with something, and his boots are midnight blue, with blue lace. He normally doesn't wear his top hat, but when he does, it has a blue ribbon and is about a foot tall. When he goes to sleep, seams on his gloves glow blue.
Equipment:
Pocketwatch
Blue and red coats
Rapier
books, lots of books
Bow ties
A top hat
A suitcase filled with gears, hands, and bits of metal
Personality: A bit mad, but normally calm.
Goals: List some things your character wishes to accomplish. (Optional)
Beliefs: List some things your character has strong opinions on. (Optional)
Background: Lord Harebourg sent his son to school last year, seeing his son was a little insane, talking to his pocketwatch all the time. Albert spends most of his time in his room, tinkering.
Notable Traits: His pocketwatch. One trait is arcane knowledge, 4 points. He's good with clockwork, 4 points. He has a great amount of time magic flowing in him, 3 points.
You should work on personality and background. These two points haven't been worked on at all. Also the age thing bugs me. This is a personal opinion but as the character I think you at least would know your own age. The fact that 'no one can tell' is more of a description for your character rather than an actual age.KAmber said:Is this better?

That would actually be pretty interesting! I don't mind what happens to Hana's backstory, I can just say that her wings stopped working because she got into a lot of fights with other people or that she was in some accident that ruined her wings. Doesn't bother me at all. I think it'd be fun!ThatSideCharacter said:@Bichelle and @rooi.
How about having it that the two elven races Drow and Avariel, were once at war, and its only recently that the two races made amends and as a sign of peace, they'd have their two races attend the same school (aka Loftheart)
But tensions would be high between these two races and someone within the school would deliberately try to break relations between the elves in order to entice another war (someone who would benefit from this, like some evil magical arms dealer or something?)
And it'd be up to the students, our ocs, to stop this person/group. Could even be the main antagonist if there's going to be one
I think the parent's death part could be explained with this as well~Bichelle said:That would actually be pretty interesting!

This is Noximilian, a Xelor. Albert has the same mask, and the same hand gesture when he stops time, but nothing else.

Background: Lord Harebourg sent his son to school last year, seeing his son was a little insane, talking to his pocketwatch all the time. Albert spends most of his time in his room, tinkering and writing in a book, presumably a diary. When Albert arrived, he showed a sudden interest in lore, cramming it into his head as much as he could.
Notable Traits: His pocketwatch.
One trait is arcane knowledge, 4 points.
He's good with clockwork, 2 points.
He has a great amount of time magic flowing in him, 2 points.
He is very mysterious, 3 points(this I guess to be reallocated? I think it would be funny if someone suddenly challenged him to something, and I reallocated it to something else? like singing? Maybe he has'nt shown the full extent of his powers.)
