Well, time to get started on my character, or I might never get started on it at all. As to the other characters in the role play... The key NPCs are as follows:
His Majesty, the Emperor Kei
The Prime Minister
The Security Council Committee
The Warlocks
Which means, when coming to play with these characters, you should be more careful as to what the said characters may say in response. I'll most likely help take on these roles, which is why I was hesitant to take a role in the actual role play itself.
Nevertheless, in lieu of the little members that we have, I might as well join in for the time being.
(Was originally meant to be my character bio... but...)
Well, I guess I'll just put it directly into the Characters thread, linked in my signature... That, plus the fact that I myself do not have much time to work on it with as much focus as I would like... So, I'm going to leave it to another day when I'm more free.
Probably tomorrow... Or the day after tomorrow... Or the day after that.... Basically, by the end of this week...
Not really. You're free to do that... Though, as a matter of fact.
Warlock > Archmagi. I think I explained that in the Discussion thread under magic. And, also, for the 4 main elements, there are various consequences attached to the usage of those elements. And, the stronger the spells used, the weaker the person tends to be. So, just bear that in mind.

Ah, I think I misunderstood your post, now that I look at it again. It's fine if you want your character to be a Warlock. But, I suppose I wouldn't recommend that, since that would make the story that your character undergoes extremely complicated... On second thought, hey, I'd think that would be quite fun...
My apologies to all those in the rp that are interacting or planning to interact with my character. I will be dissapearing from now until just after the 1st of october. "family holiday" it was unavoidable and i am sorry
No problem! Enjoy your holiday. At this point, anyway, the role play does not really have enough participants for it to start. :\ I'll be waiting for at least one more or so before I really start. So, yeah...
That'll be nice Though, hm... With that, it'll be five characters, including myself. Decent enough, I suppose. I'm not sure if any other role players would stumble by here after some time, so I guess it's up to us three...
Well, I never really tried role playing with only two other players This should be interesting. Let's try it then.
I prefer to play with 2 rpers who control multiple characters
That way, its easier to control the way the story goes without skewing off. I mean, Eureka is fine and all, but as you can see, it takes forever to proceed since people have different ideas and go off wat Oliver wants. So i am so looking forward to it.
In any case, finished Shirou. i also added a very small paragraph to Fei's personality section as well as her fighting style. i thought about it and decided not to go with being a warlock. They seemed very plot orientated so i dont want to make her overly complex.
I may make another character for it to help ease your burden if they are crucial to the story. i can make her Fei's teacher.
Here is the warlock. Whee. this is going to be fun. Would warlocks have a large roll? Or would they be background characters that i can post once in a while?
Name: Huang Renka
Gender: Female
Age: Unknown. Appears early thirties, but estimated to be at least over 65
Race: Human
Job: Fire Warlock
Appearance: One look and any one can tell where Fei get's her extravagancy from. Renka wears similarly, if not more, flamboyant clothing like her apprentice. A good deal of her habits also seemed to have rubbed off as well. Her appearance defies her age, looking rather youthful and ageless, giving her a handsomeness and rather attractive feature.
Renka is pale. Verily so. Almost like a ghost. Her skin has the slightest hue of pink. That may have been attributed to her constantly being in her sprawling house in daytime, hardly ever going out and her generally liking the night. However, her appearance compliments her greatly. She has a rather complacent and relaxed face that appear very knowledgeable, which does not change too much or go into extreme emotional change. She stands at a staggering 180cm tall with a thin, lithe figure and long and slender limbs with buxom chest.
Her hair is also very, very long, Even when hoisted in a very complex manner, it is just barely off the ground, even with her platform princess shoes. Her side burns flow low down to her thighs while the back of her hair is tied in one large ornamental loop with several more smaller, intricate ones inside, before it is looped upwards inside these loops and splayed down like a waterfall. The front is cut in a princess bob fashion, with a straight cut front fringe. Renka's eyes are set in a permanent relaxed state, seemingly musing and is a nice light browny-red colour. Similarly, Renka's lips have a sage-like, all knowing smile to it, decorated with a light pink rogue.
Her taste in clothing is also somewhat gaudy. As standard, she wears a lighter, red inner robe with a more extravagant white one outside. She wears a similar bodice as Fei, except all red, that acts as a fail safe from exposure. However, due to her powers as a Warlock, she has a somewhat legit excuse for her to constantly bare open her robes. The sleeves are incredibly wide as is the base near the leg. The inner red robe is a mix shade of red. A crimson colour acts as its base, while near the hems of the robe, at the sleeves and the edges, she has patterns of wafting smoke and cloud made with differing shades of red. This robe is tied closed with a rather complex set of wraps. The first is a large purple cloth that has triangle patterns near the end. This is wrapped several times around her waist before being tied at the front in several large hanging parts. On top of that, is a thinner red cloth that has golden edge near the end with bells running along the shorter side. This is tied at the front like the purple belt and hangs with four pieces before a golden waist rope is tied over the two cloth and tied in a fancy knot at the front. The Red cloth strips that hang are underneath the purple one, but point downwards while the purple on arches upward and over like a n. Over this, she wears a large, white robe that has similarly wide sleeve ends. The robe is bade white with very light gray wing outlines. Along the sleeves, it is in made to appear to be actually like feathers on a wing. This is not tied by anything but a single thick thread near the middle. Her shoes are similar to the one Fei wears, except her main colour is white with red as secondary. It is much higher than Fei's, throwing her into almost 186-7cm tall.
On her head, her ornament is like red spikes, slaying out in different direction in an arc on her head. It is stuck on the top, in front of the tied hair at the back. The red spikes V backwards in an oblique angle and the further most side ones point slanted downward as if like the rays of a sun. These ones are rather long, almost reaching the width of her shoulders. Along the two antler spikes that are longer than the rest near the op of her ears, she has two long red tassels that reach her waist, which has bells attached in a bunch in four places. One where the tassels hang from the ornament, the next is 1/6 way down, then third is half before the last one is at the end of the tassel near he waist. A similar ornament is wrapped around her neck reaching a bit up her throat before going down to her collar bone and outwards. The front reaches her chest while the sides end shortly after the neck meets the collar.
Another thing that Fei did pick up from Renka was smoking from the Kiseru. While what they smoke isnt narcotic, it produces a similar effect with certain taste, depending on the herb. In addition, the smoke that comes out are of different colour, depending on herb. Renka is able to manipulate these smoke through mysterious means, however, it is just a side trick. Her Kiseru pipe is long, at 75 cm in length, made of metal and being extremely flexible, almost like a jockey whip.
Personality: Renka is as laid back as they come as well as being relatively immature, free spirited and rather whimsical. Sometimes, even a slave driver to Fei. While holding a rather major position, she prefers to enjoy relaxing and the little things in life, rather than stress out and devote solely onto her job. What she does do, she gets done, but one would often find her able to shirk off jobs that arent that important to her competent personal attendant and at times, onto Fei. There are often times she becomes sage-like and serious when the situation calls for it and often, gives Fei and those close by cryptic, but crucial messages to help them. However these moments are far and few. Rarely does she show extreme emotions such as anger or being really ecstatic, though people can tell when she is serious and dangerous.
Fighting Style: Renka is the Warlock of Fire. All combat is based on her powerful fire magic, burning all in her way to a crisp. While her clothes does not look like it allows it, Renka is very skilled in close quarter fighting, especially Ta Chi Quan, Bai Ji Quan and Wing Chun, three very close quarter fighting style which allows strength despite size. Not normally used as she prefer little exertion on her part, Renka nonetheless polishes them everyday. Lastly, her Kiseru pipe can be used as a weapon. Its body is made of an extremely durable and flexible metal while the bowl and the mouth piece is hard. With whip like movements, these hard, weighted parts can hurt a lot.
The downside of being a warlock is that she frequently has a lot of fevers. There is not much she can do about it, but Renka has gotten used to it to not make a fuss about it. She would just be somewhat lazier and sluggish that day and have her attendants and sometimes, Fei fan her and cool her down. It is also why she wears her clothes rather openly.
Weapon: Technically not a weapon, Renka can use her long kiseru as a weapon. It is 75 cm long and made of very flexible metal while the bowl and the mouth piece is hard. With whip like movements, these hard, weighted parts can hurt a lot. While both side hurts, the mouthpiece side can cause slight cuts, but less crushing damage while the bowl side is vice versa. Depending on strength, Renka can use this as a discipline tool when training people or as a deadly weapon on enemies.
History: Renka is an enigma amongst the enigmas. When her age isn't even known, what chances are there of knowing her history? It is known she arrived into the Capitol around 20 years ago and by that time, was already an accomplished magic wielder. She was elected into Warlock position within 3 years and even then, she appeared not much different that she is now. A year into her Warlock position, she met with a 5 year old Yue Fei and through a whim, took her under her wing, teaching her fire magic up until now. Even though Fei was currently an highly recognised Archmagi, she still hangs onto Renka as if she was still 5, being the only person Fei ever obeyed obediently without question.
Well, here's my character. I've already posted the RP thread, and well, also updated the events area in the Information Thread, linked here.
Do take a look and make sure you respond to it. Especially in cases where the events are mandatory. Such events mean your character must show up, or dire consequences may be meted out.
Name: Kai Yin
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Race: Human
Job: Security Council Leader Appearance: Blazing crimson hair, slim body line, as well as green eyes all make this girl rather easy to remember. Yin tends to look rather weak too, because of her body shape as well as height, but anyone who crosses swords with her would easily discover how very wrong they are to have thought that way.
She particularly loves to wear as she does as shown, and almost never has been seen dressed otherwise.
Personality: Yin is a rather nice person, cheerful and open -- only bordering on rude at times. She detests formalities with a passion. She'd rather the person treat her on equal standing, and tends to forget her position.
In battle, she's a nightmare. Although calm and silent, her attacks are fast and furious. They leave the defender little to no chance to defend. She also uses magic seamlessly with her melee strikes, leading on to her so-called 'Runic Arc' technique (that will be further elaborated upon).
Fighting Style: Runic Arc
'Runic' because of her seamless integration of magic and melee. 'Arc' because of her high tendency to use slashing attacks.
Yin favors a rather brutal strategy, striking without giving the opponent any breathing space. If the enemy tries to put some distance, she only turns to magic to pull herself closer -- which only makes all the battles with her close ranged ones.
Weapon: As shown in the image.
This sword was bestowed on Yin by the Emperor himself when she was made the leader in a private event within the Palace in view of all the
Called the 'Blade of Recognition' -- this blade is forged from the hardest metals, and two characters meaning 'Loyalty' are engraved on it.
History: Born to the noble Kai Family, Yin was expected to grow up to be married off to some other noble's son. However, in her growing years, she was inspired by the Guards of the Security Council, leading her to take on rather tomboyish behavior to deter her family from deciding to stop her from her ambition to join the Security Council.
At the age of 16, she secretly picked up swordsmanship by hiring a swordsman in secret to teach her. It was then she discovered her talent with the blade, having bested her teacher, a master swordsman in only about a year after learning to deal with the blade.
She continues on to hire in secret a magic teacher who went on to teach her the magical arts that she later developed and personalized to some extent. She wasn't so much a talent in this area, but because of her ambition to become a White Tiger Guard, she practiced every single day in secret for the next 3 years, until she was particularly proficient.
It was then at the age of 20 that she joined the tournament to take her desired position, and there, she earned the champion's title, as well as the nickname 'Runic Arc' for her fighting style. The Emperor promptly summoned her to be Security Council Leader, and the story begins with her on the first day of her job.
Okay, Huang Renka is completed. Warlock is available for review. Shirou is too. As for Yue Fei, i touched up her personality column. There shouldn't be any power modification so you can just copy and paste her profile once more.
Btw, are warlocks on the security council? Who are in the council? And where do Warlocks live?
Warlocks do not belong to the Security Council. They are of a separate 'council' of their own, if they do have any. Most of them would have a council for the magic practitioners of the same element, but that is not always the case. For instance, the Earth Warlock, heads the Clerics' Guild... And the Water Warlock, is just merely a recognized figure who is known for her powerful ability to control Water magic.
I should have added more detail to this, but yeah. The main point is that, none of the Warlocks are in the Council. As to who are in the Council....
Well. That's considered top secret information. Classified. Only the relevant rank and, rarely, file would know of the key personnel. Unfortunately in your case, Fei would most probably not know any other White Tiger divisions save for my character, Yin -- And perhaps some random NPC you can create to 'populate' the White Tiger Division, but they're mostly arrogant b@5+@/!s that doesn't really socialize much... And just as clueless as most in the Security Council would be about the Security Council.
It might be interesting to add that, just some random thought, hm, there's a rumor going on as follows:
One of the top Security Council members is the Emperor's private assassin, who takes out political enemies for him.
That another of the top Security Council members is a brutal monster who is always out on some expedition in some unknown place outside Byakko.
I'll give you a bit more hints about these people soon enough when the Emperor decides to hold his court.
Settled! Now there's one. By the way, my character, Yin, leader of the Security Council is now really mad that none of the White Tigers are present. It's up to you, but well, the Grunt's coming to get you with his assigned message.
Eh? i thought it was a selected few that went to the meeting, not the entire guards? Ah well, ill wrap up what i had intended to do with Renka and head there in my next post.
Well, fire's gonna be a rather common magical specialty amongst the White Tigers, I can assure you. It's probably the most offensive type of element which should be of some real good use in battles.
