RWBY: The Next Class

@Ineffectivd - Your accepted! Welcome Aboard, I quite like your character and think she will make an interesting addition to Beacon. Please read the rules on page 3 of the sign ups before you post and have fun!


@tklord your good to go as well though both of you need to read the rules on page 3 of the sign ups before you post


@Firelava - Declined for now, I need you to expand on your weapon, like why does it do what it does? If you need any help with that feefree to ask me, or @Riddle78 . We both can help out, so just let us know.
 
Killer Lung i have done some modifications to the weapons list. I figure that the Dust follows the same rules of Magnetism for the crystal gathering Dust for a fireball..
 
Post something along the lines of your character feeling left out of the excitement, having chosen to keep his head down when the earlier shenanigans took place. Then post something about hearing some commotion around a TV and your character going to investigate
 
Ummm IDK I kinda already have a lot of people to keep up with, and two teams are gonna be the main focus though if I had more volunteers for villains I could make a 3rd team
 
awesome the emerald forest time skip is tonight! and @Lucem Tenebris I'd love to have you aboard. I sent you a PM to fill you in on the villain plot


Also @the juggernaut , @TKolord , and @Robin man please read these rules, I've gotten a complaint about some infractions from some members and upon examination I think you might have glossed over them. Please don't take offense when I say I'm trying to help, if you have any questions please let me know.


1. Cussing is fine but keep it to a minimum


2. ALL POSTS MUST BE AT LEAST 1 PARAGRAPH


3. try to play the characters as the children/teens that they are, (so no overplayed out maturity)


4. THE MORE DESCRIPTION THE BETTER


5. Let's keep things pg-13, if things get a little hot just finish off in PM and add a fade to black


6. Please be literate (try to use proper punctuation and don't confuse your present and past participles)7. GOD MODDING is NOT permitted, your character is a teenager so don't make them the world's biggest badass. In all likelyhood all villains will not be taken down by a single character but rather teamworkSo work with others, don' be the big bad sad loner.


8. HAVE FUN


Failure to adere to these rules, gives me the right to kill your charater off in rediculous and/or hilarious fashion


@TKolord I have literally no idea what you posted, I couldn't tell what was happening. You quoted Ozpin but didn't real differentiate from the subsequent quote which denoted your character's dialogue. Then there's the bolded thinking, (usually thinking is denoted with italics in literature), as well as the visuals you refer to as actually having happened. Is your character hallucinating? I have no idea!? So please let me know how I can help and I will, but this is the first warning.


@the juggernaut the only thing I need from you is to provide spacing between paragraphs and differentiate between present and past participles. In most cases using the past tense is appropriate when telling a story (which is kinda what we're doing here, seeing as nothing is presently happening in the real world then it's kinda inappropriate to use present tense) (I can help you with this as well, it's pretty simple once you get it down) (Also if you need any help with a cowboy character, I could be of use there as well. I grew up on a horse ranch, so I'm very familiar on the subject matter)


@Robin man just be consistent with italisizing thought, and don't put thought into quotation unless he is thinking out loud. Also make sure your differentiating between your present and past participles as well.


Please note that I'm not attacking any of you I just need to address some member cncerns as well as some of the concerns of my own. If I didn't I wouldn't be much of a GM now would I? Now if I can help please don't hesitate to let me know. Also please note that Ihave places for you all in teams so don't worry I'm still looking out for you!

Name: Alman Jadesphere


Age: 16


Gender: Male


Weapon Type: Scythe-Pistols


Weapon Appearance: <p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2013_09/image.jpg.9f674ee36a398f867a643e40eef4f215.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="6975" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2013_09/image.jpg.9f674ee36a398f867a643e40eef4f215.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


Rather than the black and red color scheme, the scythe is a balance of black and white. The blades's grip also serves as stocks and protrudes from the bottom.


Pistol Form:<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2013_09/image.jpg.f4192ccdd62e9f751f954727c2640c74.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="6976" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2013_09/image.jpg.f4192ccdd62e9f751f954727c2640c74.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


The curving object behind the blades is not included and replaced by the scythe's blade entirely, much like Ren's Jade Dragons. Like its previous form, the pistols are a coloring of black and white.


Weapon Ability/Details: As a scythe, the weapon is basically the same as any other found in its category, similar to Ruby's Cresent Rose. However, when shifting to the pistols, it becomes very different. The scythe goes through many shifts in its mechanics to bring about the desired form and allowing the rounds to be fired.


The blade part of the scythe is where the weapon splits off after compressing into a smaller size. The pole becomes the stocks that hold the many rounds fired by these pistols. The blades extend beyond the actual gun, allowing for close combat. The blades also serve as guards that protects the hands during battle.


The pistols have different sets of ammunition that are fired after being placed within the stocks. The types of ammunition are as follows.


Speed Rounds: As the name implies, these rounds are extremely fast and are fired automatically. These rounds focus more on speed than impact, allowing for better piercing. However, due to this, they are ineffective against certain Grimm with tougher exteriors.


Power Rounds: These rounds make up for what the Speed Rounds lack. They are larger and heavier than the other ammunition types, focusing more on powerful impacts than anything. These rounds create a large recoil, allowing for bursts of speed and better attacks when used in tandem with the blades. These are able to take on the Grimm that the Speed Rounds are ineffective against and it is their main focus. However, these rounds require a great deal of skill. Miscalculations and errors in footing can easily cause disastrous results for the wielder and those around them.


Dust Shots: The Dust Shots are used as Dust is usually used and allow for proper usage of these abilities. They are put into shells in powdered form, allowing for easy containment. Crystallized Dust can be used as well, but powdered Dust can be used in larger amounts. This requires a great deal of focus to use, as you have to account for the gun as well as the Dust that is being used. The effects might not always be the ones desired.


Aura Bursts: The Aura Bursts uses ones Auara instead of physical ammunition. This is a powerful round, but usually only used when ammunition isn't available. Despite being the strongest round, it isn't very relatable. The extent of its usage depends solely if the wielder can continuously use their Auara. Their usage is quite tiring and takes its toll.


Bio: Alman was born to a pair of Hunters who were quite skillful in their field. When he was born, Alman's mother retired early from hunting the Grimm to raise him. However, his father continued in his line of work. His decision to do so wasn't frowned upon by Alman's mother, but is rather what happened in future that caused a problem. However, this would not occur until years from the day of his birth.


As a child, Alman was quite a cheery boy, always smiling even when there wasn't anything to be particularly happy about. Unlike the many boisterous children who displayed their demeanor with large bursts of energy, Alman did the opposite. He was one of the few quiet children and showed his cheerful disposition with a gentle smile. While he was on the quiet side of things, he was passionate about many things, such as Dust.


Dust was like some magical force in the world that peaked Alman's curiosity. The applications Dust had intrigued him and he took a large interest in it. He would often ask his mother, who was proficient in the use of Dust when she was a Huntress, all about the mystical product that was distributed across the world. She was more than happy to talk to her son about it and would often teach him a thing or two about its possibilities. In the end, she probably taught him too much, as he would spend a great deal of time trying to create new uses for the product and it would often end in an explosion or two. The prospect of infinite possibilities fascinated him and Dust was something that had such a possibility. He did eventually get better at experimenting with it after multiple trial and error, but this is the point of his life where things took a bad turn.


When he was looking at the cyan-colored Dust in the small glass bottle, a ring at their door was heard. After answering, he and his mother were informed that his father had been killed by Grimm while hunting. The news devastated both of them and left them quite distraught. After awhile though, his mother was somewhat back to usual, but Alman was still unable to cope with the fact that his father was gone.


Alman hardly ever talked during the weeks that followed the disastrous news. He didn't smile, nor did her cry during this period of time. Rather than found this, Alman didn't do anything, including showing his feelings outwardly. He had lost the drive to do anything and he had lost the passion he had for learning about Dust. Seeing her son's state, his mother proposed that they move. They held too many bad memories in their home and a change of venue would give a fresh feeling to their lives.


After Alman agreed to move with his mother, the two left Vale and took up residence in a small cabin in the woods. The fresh air and the atmosphere did eventually make Alman feel better and he was back to his old self. For awhile, everything was great and they were recovering from the loss they had suffered. However, tragedy would rear its ugly head once more.


It was unknown to them that Grimm were also residing in the woods and it was quite clear what happened next. They were attacked by the dark beasts and were helpless. His mother tried her best to defeat them and she had prevailed, but at the cost of her own life. To this day, Alman can still remember the smell of blood and the rose-like spots covering the ground.


As Alman sat in the soaking blood, he was completely immobile. He had nobody in his life now, both his parents had fallen to the Grimm. He didn't know what to do and be didn't have a clue what would happen to him. However, he could feel one thing in his cold body. He could feel hatred for the Grimm and he had felt anger for the first time in his life.


As he saw one of the fallen Grimm twitch on the ground, showing signs of life, Alman looked at the beast with narrowed eyes. Taking his mother's fallen weapon, he stood over the creature before plunging the blade into its heart, ending its life. This was a turning point in Alman's life and it marked the beginning of a new him. He vowed to become a Hunter and avenge the death if his parents.


After the events of that night, Alman was able to contact one of his father's old friends who was well-known through the Hunter community. He told the man his goal and he was more than willing to accommodate. He could see the drive in this boy's eyes as agreed to take him under his wing. Despite not having much combat prowess at the moment, he could see determination and that was all he needed. This turned out to be a great decision when looking at what the boy had become.


Alman was enrolled ini Signal and took his studies very seriously. He focused completely on his academics and training, which didn't give him much of a social life. While he still retained that kindness of his, the newfound seriousness overtook that personality and he buried himself in his work. This effort was well rewarded with his results. His father's friend had trained him to become a great combatant, but the boy was nowhere near perfect. He wasn't old enough to learn everything, but he was fantastic with what he was taught.


With his overall perfect grades and combat skill, Alman graduated top of his class at Signal and was prepared to make the journey to Beacon. He looked forward to his time at Beacon more than anything, hoping to become a great Hunter. If he could succeed there, he would definitely become someone who could erase the world's darkness and avenge his parents.


Personality: Alman is a hard worker and will not settle for anything less than giving his best. If he doesn't give it all he's got, he feels that he will never become a great Hunter. While he does give his best at everything, that doesn't mean he's a perfectionist. If he doesn't do well in something, he accepts that and trains harder for when he can. He can make adjustments in combat, so doing so in life is possible.


He possesses an overall calmness, but being placed in certain situations can sometimes leave him baffled over what to do or say. However, he is always calm and serious in battle, regardless of the situation. If you let emotions overtake you, you lose sight of things and he will not allow himself to succumb to that. Although, he can get angry when pushed or certainly things are triggered. His parents being insulted is one of the things that can make him loses his composure.


He takes things seriously, so people who don't can sometimes get under his skin, but not very often. After all, they are at Beacon to learn, not good off. If you can't take things seriously, it is a hazard for not only yourself, but those around you as well.


Alman is quite the upstanding person, abiding by his rules and morals. He has a strong sense of justice and feels bad if he commits a sees he finds that is morally wrong. He will not stand for others doing so either. Along with his seriousness and worth ethic, some people tend to describe him as the perfect student or a teacher's pet. However, he is just doing what he feels is right.


While he is mostly serious, Alman still possesses that cheerful disposition. Although, it might take the breaking of his stiff ways to get him to be more loose. He is generally kind to everyone and tried to be polite, but he will do just the opposite of he feels that it is warranted. If you can get past the serious Alman, you'll be able to enjoy the cheerful him more than usual.

Will he be arriving that very morning? Also, will there be someone informing him of what's going on? I'm watching RWBY dubbed in Chinese as I type this.
 
chinese? Why chinese? It's in English y'know. Anyways yeah just have him appear in the morning for the emerald forest test. And hell basicly be thrown into the test along with everyone else. No prep no explation just good ole fashioned testing. Also I'll be posting the match ups for the first people the characters lock eyes with.
 
Understood, Captain! I could help come up with team names if you need help. The Chinese voice acting sounds better than the English version to me, not that they didn't do a good job, it's just a preference.
 
There's Chinese voice acting? Not official,then. RWBY is made in Texas. And from my research,they only speak English at Rooster Teeth.
 
Yeah, its not official, but Monty is aware of it. He tweeted that he liked it and that he finds Chinese Ruby adorable.
 
Huh, well that's pretty cool actually. Anyways @Lucem Tenebris the aura burst rounds, lets hold off on those for a while. After all Beacon is a school so it would be cool to see Alman learn a technique over the course of the series.


And man, I live in Texas maybe I should apply to Roosterteeth. Make this fandom canon and what not :big grin:
 
Yeah, I'm not gonna have him be all powerful since it's the start. I just put it down because I remembered that Ren did the same with his Jade Dragons.
