Fandom RWBY - Turn To Dust

That feel when you forget one note.....


@Cruor Flumine


As you saw in the previous notice, Armor is not allowed. It gives an unfair advantage to players who are already able to take hits. Also, the semblance is a little... eh, weird. Making him not be able to feel pain plus a rage machine plus being able to see people's auras through walls is a bit, much. It seems like a different definition or just a more concise power. It seems like not feeling pain would be one thing, but adding a rage machine onto that would be a bit much. He can glow due to his aura, but it has to have other negative effects to counteract what it can do, after all, nothing is perfect. The personality doesn't give us much. We would like to see a little more effort into writing, not just one sentence, since we want people who will stick around. The weapon itself is ok, but the size, eeehhh yeah, that doesn't settle well with me. A battle axe as large as a 18 year old man, who is probably full grown, so like what, 5'11" on average, that weapon would be so heavy to carry by itself it would be hard to swing around quickly at all. Not to mention the smaller forms themselves would have to be big enough to mold into that. So yeah, shoot us an OOC message and we will try to get things sorted out

We are largely ok with your character, the semblance, however, makes us a little, confused. Sound absence would not cause visual effects, it would just create a silent area. It would also not portray images of a devil or the persons worst fear onto your character. You could pick to project halucinations in a small area around her, but other than that, it doesn't seem ok as of now. Also it seems with her perceptive abilities a Perception as her strong area might fit her a bit better.
Changed the ability type to perception and modified the semblance.


It was never creating an area of silence, however I've adjusted it so that it is now more specifically hallucination based, with some dust abilities listed for future reference. I don't plan on using dust from the get-go, and instead want these to be unlocked potentials learned about through roleplay. I just didn't want to seem like I was making up the abilities out of nowhere when they become 'discovered'.


At any rate, the changes are made and I hope we're all in agreement with the outcome.

I will ask @Kiyoko Tomoe to also look at this one because I'm not sure about the dust power amplifications itself but it seems better.
 
So if our submission has been updated and meets the requirements, do we just hop in or wait for the like? And once we are able to join, do we have to wait for a post introducing the late arrivals or do we just jump in wherever?

Ah, I'll be getting a late-member post up as soon as current events near end, tagging all the people with newly-accepted sheets to let them know they may begin from where the post starts them at. It'll lead to the main group as the current main events end however, to allow progression to occur as wanted.

Obsius was reloading his cannon once more after the second blast barely did any damage like the first. He was contemplating whether to change the dust type or not. If fire didn't work, perhaps he can weaken it with ice or earth. Though that can end with the same results too. Scratching his head, he was thinking of shooting it from a different angle when several students pass by him. They gave curious looks at him and the dented door, which they pulled open before going in.
Staring at the door handle in disbelief, Obsius facepalm himself. Closing his eye, he put the end of the cannon's barrel against his head and squeezed the handle. Right before it finished charging, he let goes before holstering it. "First redeem myself before I do it." He sighed as he pulled open the door and entered. Perhaps he'll finally find Miyako inside and hope she didn't see all that. Perhaps save him some of his pride if she's the merciful type.

Ashen's left eye twiched when Quiet was checking him out, especially when she began doubling over from silent laughter. Clearly she was enjoying herself like back on the ship, which only annoyed him more. Though he more curious where her 'voice' was coming from. He didn't notice any audio device on her when she was eyeing him. Strange.


"Ashen." He replied as he shook Quiet's hand. "Your sense of humor is quite good, if you're planning becoming a comedian. Too bad it's not really your own voice."
@WiLeo


I never realised you had responded to Quiet =/


I would have noticed it better iffen you would'a tagged me mate, but that's no a big deal, I'll just roll with Quiet being distracted by the challenge =P

~ Semblance ~

It allows the user to use their aura to propel themselves forward quickly. This can be done both on the ground and in the air, but the aerial action is limited. The range which the user is propelled can be controlled to a certain extent.


~ Weapon ~


bf337b7480ff885126778fee1a387a36.png



(Picture is pretty self-explanatory. He's able to launch fire dusts from his palm)






~ Personality ~


He has a playful, energetic and childlike personality, often making jokes about everything and acting rather dramatically about everything. However, he has mood swings, where even the slightest thing can change his mood which then impacts his performance. He is often referred to as 'simple-minded' because of this but is both admired for his impressive skills and morale-boosting demeanor. When he makes a comeback, he clearly shows his pride top 25 (even though it’s not much to be proud about) in his cohort back at his old academy and believes he is strong. His personality is so compatible that he gets along with many people. However, he's rather ignorant to other people's discomfort.






~Backstory ~


Aurum’s past was incredibly mundane. His father was one of the many scientists that help develop and research on dust and technology. His mother, however, retired shortly after he was born. Since his father was always away and busy, his mother had to sacrifice her job as a huntress to care for the newborn. As a child, he often entered his father’s private “lair” and played around with the equipment and dust in his free time. It was by a miracle that he didn’t blow up the house. He often listened to his mother’s stories as her life as a huntress. That was the reason why he wanted to become a hunter, he wanted to enjoy the thrill of fighting evil and making sure humanity doesn’t die. After attending the basic academies of Atlas, Aurum set his sights on Fortress Academy since it was close to his home.


~ Strong Area ~


Balanced



~ Extra/Other ~


Aurum is reckless, jumping into battle without a second thought. However, to make up for this habit, he has the ability to come up with a (not very)“reliable” strategy that could go two ways.

~ Name ~


Fey Luna


~ Age ~


17


~ Gender ~


Female


~ Aura Color ~


Neon green


~ Semblance ~


She can connect to electric devices and she what is on them.


~ Weapon ~


Has a lightning staff that turns into a rifle. The rifle shoots electric bullets.


~ Personality ~


Fey is a free spirt that feels trapped because of her past (or lack there of). She is usually very confident and positive. Sometimes when Fey remembers something or gets super scared or nervous she'll literally freeze and start saying random numbers for no reason.


~Backstory ~


Fey was found and rescued from a strange bunker underneath a were house at the age of 12. The girl can not remember almost anything about her past except for the words hunters and Grimm came up a lot. She quickly found out about the multiple schools and instantly stated practicing. This year after five years of intense training she finally applied to this school.


~ Strong Area ~


Fey would be better at stealth and strategizing but can definitely hold her own in a physical fight.


~ Extra/Other ~


Starts say numbers for reasons said above.

For a short time, only for thirty seconds, he can cloak himself in shadow and become partially invisible. This ability comes with great strain, however, causing pain throughout his whole body with continued use. This pain slows him down, so he only uses it in situations where he knows he won't be fighting.

Taiyo (Sun) and Tsuki (Moon): Two dual wield semi auto shotguns that have a fairly long range for shotguns.


Nisshoku (Eclipse): The combined variant of the two shotguns that forms into a poleaxe style staff. The blades on each shotgun extend into spearheads at each end of the staff.


~ Personality ~


Onyx loves to have fun and make friends. He tends to be laid back during off times, and sometimes during play matches or sparring rounds. His demeanor allows him to easily befriend others and lead his team through respect and the bonds of his friendships. He admires friendship and respect highly, as well as compassion, sincerity, and empathy. He will not tolerate any kind of injustice, whether it be simple bullying or something more sinister such as criminal activity.


~ Backstory ~


Haillng from the kingdom of Vale, Onyx Kuro was an orphaned at a young age due to his parents giving him up and leaving him on the side of the street. He was picked up by a pair of parents that loved him like their own son for years. He was raised along with two older brothers and a younger sister. One of his brothers attended Beacon Academy to be a Huntsman, and the other went straight into the work force after his time at Signal Academy. He was sent to Signal by his parents, even though he didn't want to train to become a Huntsman at first. That all changed after their family received a letter from Professor Ozpin himself. The letter stated that his brother was killed by an out of control Grimm during a training session. This tore him up internally, as he had grown rather attached to his adoptive family. Instead of knocking him down however, this inspired him to take up his brother's place and train to be a Huntsman.


During his last year at Signal, he discovered his Semblance, which he calls "Shadow Sneak," and began training to lessen the strain on his body to use it more often. This training gained him great athletic ability both unarmed and with his twin weapons/staff. He graduated middle of his class at Signal, and applied for Beacon to be able to train as a Huntsman. He continues to train in order to get better with his Semblance and grow stronger as a person.


~ Strong Area ~


His strength lies in combat, but he is also an intelligent indvidual who does fit well in a leadership position.


~ Extra/Other ~


Onyx's martial arts skill is incredible, especially since he has to compensate for the fact his weapons are rather cumbersome when using his dual wield shotguns. As for the staff, he is quite skilled when it comes to that.

Copy cat.

Devon's semblance creates a after image after and attack is performed which copies Devon's exact attack it hopes of hitting a enemy when he is off guard. The after image is produced from Devon's body so if you are a fair distance away from Devon his semblance is ineffective.

~ Weapon ~

Devon uses a quite simplistic but large sword. Although it is quite big in size it is made from a light but strong metal, making it a little easier to swing around.

~ Personality ~

Cold and stubborn are two words to describe Devon in the best way. Devon dislikes Humans and Faunus equally. Devon's cold nature drives people away from him, and generally gets him disliked by most who know him. But he does enjoy the company of a very small group of friends, showing that there is some room for friendship in him. Once Devon decides something he carries it out all the way through, whether that be a promise or a challenge. He also has a scary aura full of Killing intent surrounding him when he's in a fight, and he doesn't hold back a single bit. Devon also doesn't believe in luck. He feels that it he want's something to happen he has to make it happen himself, and if it doesn't work out his way it means he was weak. Devon is also fairly smart and has good perception abilities, catching on to things fairly quickly.

~Backstory ~

When Devon was a kid his parents always taught him to treat everyone as his equals. They told him that both people and Faunus could live a happy life together. His parents were fighting for equality for Faunus, so that they could live the life they wanted to, through non violent ways of course. They wanted to end the discrimination. But one day a group of Humans raided their camp and killed off his parents while he hid away. He went to the White fang to gain shelter but they turned their backs on him, saying that his parents were a bunch of weaklings, trying to gain what thy wanted from the Humans through peaceful ways. Devon was left with no where to go.

Eventually he was able to make it the city of Atlas and gain entry into a Academy. He grew up with a hate for the Humans who killed his family and the Faunus who turned his back on him in his time of need. Eventually he managed to effectively use his Semblance and he began to wield a large blade that he gave no name to. Because of his skills he was able to gain entry to Fortress academy easily.

I must say, I like him quite a bit. I suspect he'll be told a lot to quit smoking around the school by students and teachers alike quite often, alongside another smoker of course, but I have a little NPC who'd get along with him pretty well, both in philosophy and the similarities of their semblance...


Anyway, that's all the details I'm giving until the next test the students have to deal with, but you're accepted aside from a possible name change to fit into a team name, and the fact that we're not at Beacon. We're actually in Atlas, at the academy which has been named Fortress Academy for the simplicity of having something to call the academy :x
