Role-Playing Tournament 2009 Information


Hope to see all you avid RPers out there :D
 
I know I have been recently absent for quite a wile now but this new tournament has really inspired me to join up once again... I don't know how much longer I will be here for I have other obligations I must attend to in my life, so this might be my last fight... Because of this I will create a new bio from scratch and try to build it to one of my most brilliant characters... I am really looking forward to this...
 
I'm in. Maybe I could win all of the rep.
 
I would still prefer to go over it with a fine-toothed comb :) This is a very strict competition :)
 
Will pm the bio to you later today. Got to go for now.

EDIT: Just noticed that there is quite a lot of time til the date so I will do it sometime later :D

Name – Desconsio (Dis`kun-cio)

Title – Geomancer (Magik user who acquires the power for his/hers power from what they are standing on.) Fire Corps.

Alignment – Based on current service being stood on.

Race – Human

Gender – Male

Age – 20

Appearance – A slightly build young man; there is a blue scar on his right eye. His hair colour is a silver/brown with strips of blue streaming downwards through his hair. His hair style is a common long yet wild with areas that tend to be straight; near the end of his hair it starts curving inwards, but it doesn’t curl all the way. Desconsio has bluish silver eyes with his puble being blood red.
Along Desconsio’s right arm is a golden scar in the shape of a lightning bolt. This scar has a rugged edge to it and in a few areas it is not completely scared in the lightning bolt. The bottom of his feet is rugged and well callused due to never wearing shoes. On the back of his neck is a v shaped scar that looks like it was burnt on; this is a symbol of geomancers.

Attire – He wears a black leather jacket that has a golden eagle embroided into the arms of the jacket with a red string. That is the emblem of the fire corps, a group of Geomancers who were trained to utilized fire element of the ground he stands on. He wears a leather headband that has three stripes on it, that stands for his rank of captain. He wears a black leather belt that has 3 reddish gold rings that hold his 2 axe shields.
Desconsio has a blue cotton shirt that is overall plain due to its lack of any design. The shirt is loosely fitted with a high collar that extends to the top of his neck. He tends to were a pair of baggy yet well fitting jeans that have been redyed countless times. Because of the redying process they have an oily look that is a pale blue in colour.

Personality – Desconsio acts arrogant in all situations. He has a habit of being too serious and this leads to him being an annoyance to pretty much everyone. Around his friends he has a somewhat calm attitude that leads to many misconceptions about how he is without them. When he is not around his friends he tends to anger people through his attitude that he treats everyone. If you are rude to him then he will return the favor and will be rude to you. His anger is really strong and will flare up over the drop of a hat. This leads to many confertations between other people.

First Impression – with how he acts you would think that he is not very smart and is lazy. After you meet him you will see that he is kind and gentle about most areas. As long as you don’t make him angry he will be easy to get along with.

Strength – He is relatively weak, but he can amplify his strength by using his magik.
100/500 and 300/500

Speed – He is very fast because of his magik, but can be neutralized by removing him from the ground. Average speed is around 12mph without using his magik but can reach a max speed of over 50 mph by using his magik. He can avoid some but not all attacks by using wind energy to push himself and the item being used to attack with.

Endurance – Desconsio can not take a punch at all most hits will make him hurt and sometimes cripple him very effectively. His stamina is also based on the use of his magik but over all he has low stamina and endurance to attacks.

Reflexes – Reflexes are superior to the average human, but he can’t enhance them with magik. Reflex wise he can avoid arrows, but anything faster will be unavoidable.

Fighting Style – Ti chi is his favorite fighting style, but he will use Shaolin Kong Fu when needed. As for his tactics he has a very strong since of honour; this leads to him not striking anyone’s back or attacking an unarmed opponent. He refuses to attack either an unarmed man or a woman.

Weapons
Crystal Axe Shields Rak`Kain (rock cain) – This is the shield commonly seen in his right hand. This shield was made from the Arcarien Crystal; this crystal is commonly used to create advanced energy weapons due to its flammable properties. The Rak`kain was originally forged through an ice blade that pierced through the heat of the crystal and designed the shield. After it was forged it has been passed down from generation to generation until the silver fangs, Ice geomancers, were defeated by a band of rouge necromancers. As result the golden eagles were contracted to retrieve the Rak`kain from those necromancer, but after seeing that its element agreed with their own they kept the Rak`kain to enhance their leader’s power. To this day the Rak`kain has been given to the strongest of the Golden Eagles to enable them massive powers. The colour of the crystal is commonly green with areas of red and blue.

Ler`Ming (lar ming) – This shield is covered in mystery due to it being found at Death’s Forge, a gorge that was created in mythology by Death’s scythe. This Gorge also in mythology houses the land of the dead that had sinned beyond redemption, thus the reason it is called Death’s Forge. The material that it was made from is Direndim, The hardest crystal known to man and is commonly called Death’s Diamond, because the only place to find it is after a blooded river exits the Death’s Forge. The edges are curved a little away from the user’s hand and can create a blade there very easily. This crystal is commonly a dark black encrusted in a goldish layer of similar material.

Magik
Ground Burst – This technique is not very powerful but can be very effective in defense or offense. The element of this technique varies depending on the land a geomancer is standing on. With some elements it creates a wall that will be as hard as rock while other times it will be just a wave of the element shooting up. This technique is used by a seal it has 3 forms to it, one is the forward crescent this creates an attackitive usage of it. The second one is a line seal; it creates a temporary break in the battle field that enables the user to stop the fight temporary. The final one is a reverse crescent this makes it a very defensive ability that will act as a shield. After use there is minor damage to the user, but over time it can take its toll.

Element wave – By gathering up energy from the ground a geomancer can launch a wave of any element in any direction he pleases. This technique is commonly related to the amount of energy for that element the ground possesses. Example a feather will enhance a wind variety of this greatly but hinder all other elements. This technique will lead to the deteration of the user’s arms and hands. Most people can only use this technique 3 times a day due to the strain it puts the body through.


Element blade – similar to element wave, but it is condensed into a blade through a seethe. The blades will vary from element, but will all have its own element present in the energy of the weapon. With this technique a simple jump can change the power of it into a massive weapon or a basic blade that does little. The strain on this technique is greater the the wave, but it also packs a bigger punch. Max usage per day is 2, which can cause issues depending on the amount of control the user has.


Solar flare – This is the strongest magik any geomancer can learn, but there is one problem to use it is to commit suicide given that the strain is so strong that it would destroy the body alone. Also the magik super heats the environment’s atmosphere so far that even diamonds would melt. Given the heat from the technique anything within a mile radius will be turned into molten goo. This magik has never been tested due to its destructive capabilities. The magik was created by a geomancer named kilos, after creating it he used it only once and left a creator one mile wide on the top of the Arcarien Mountain, thus energizing all of the crystals there into what they are today. The attack looks like a ring of fire balls that merged into one giant flare that destroys everything in its path.


Fire/Wind chain – Similar to solar flare, but less severe. By using wind element waves several orbs are created in a chain then one fire wave is shot through and ignites all of them in a chain thus making it flow a blaze where ever the user directs the wind waves. This attack has high strain on the user’s body sometimes even having enough strain to destroy the user’s body.

Stat Enhance – By utilizing elements he can increase his stats exponentially in all areas except reflexes. This is achieved by merging the element energy into himself body and gaining the abilities of that element. The effects are as follows: fire - strength, ice/water – strength or speed, earth – endurance, lightning and wind – speed.

History – As a young kid Desconsio was traveling around with his parents never settling down anywhere. Before long he finally managed to get a place where he could settle down, the place had a strict owner. Before long his parents decided to move away to have some comfort; it did not last long because his parents started having problems and before long he ended up with his grandmother who was worse then the previous place he had lived. Before long he ended up in the hands of a Golden Eagle, who sinced something special in him. When he arrived at the training facility for the Golden Eagles, the lord of them was fervent for him not to be trained. After a few hours of arguing about it Kiros, the geomancer who saved Desconsio, agreed to take full responsibility in Desconsio’s actions. Desconsio proved him right by being the defender of their ideals and a very powerful geomancer in due time. He excelled in everything he did and became known as the strongest geomancer in the entire group in the matter of years and now he has been released to travel and discover the secrets of the group. Before he left he was given the Rak`Kain from the lord of the Golden Eagles, and the Ler`Ming from Keris, Kiros’ brother and Desconsio’s friend.

I have very few problems with this bio and only a couple of which I have to address, firstly under no circumstances will you EVER be able to use the attack Solar Flare in RPB, it is far too overpowered. And secondly, your spelling, in the RPB Tournament you WILL be penalized for spelling errors, I must also ask that you paragraph properly and construct your sentences better.

Other than that it's fine. :)

Here you go.
