Kitty

[SIZE=1]Dibs on next after White.

[SIZE=1]I could be an answer? o: Cool. B) [b]#2[/b]: Posts?[/SIZE]

[size=1]Wow, I missed a lot of drama today [technically yesterday]. o___O;; I'm just glad I don't have to change anything about my characters. I'd be too lazy to, anyway. xD If anyone has any questions about the Cheshire Cat, I'd be happy to answer them here or over AIM.[/size]

[size=1]I can't tell you how many times I've started this sign up and been forced to start over. D: Computers are stoopid. And I'm sorry for my monster of a bio. I get carried away. -___-;; [indent][center][b]Name[/b] Jiigokuno Hikaru [Surname, Given Name] [b]Job[/b] Reaver [b]Origin[/b] Neutral [b]Appearance[/b] [url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/PicKitty/RandomPicchus/bloody.jpg]Hikaru[/url] [b]Personality[/b] Hikaru is a very dominating person, proven by the hoards of spirits she can command and control with little to no effort, though she is extremely quiet. Spirits say she has the power to hypnotize others into speaking and acting for her, though she is always seen alone. Having always led generally happy lives before her latest one, ended by her decline in mental stability and unfortunate and premature death at the age of twenty eight, her sudden transformation into such a cruel and essentially insane character is a bit bewildering. [b]Biography[/b] In Hikaru's last life in a mortal shell, she was her parent's second and final child until she turned thirteen and her little brother Itaro was born. She was, at first, worried that the addition to the family would make life for her more stressful, having to help take care of an infant. But she soon became extremely attached to him when he would only calm down in her arms after having mysterious fits at seemingly random times. It was, in fact, that he could see the spirit of their older brother, Shiru, being haunted by a Shade, and would calm down only when her job-less spirit was around him (having always inhabited another mortal shell after release from her previous one). Because of her brother's attachment to her, she spent almost all her time with him when she wasn't in class. By the time Hikaru finished high school, was still seventeen, Shiru was nineteen and Itaro was four. Shiru was only a grade above Hikaru because she started school earlier than he had. After Hikaru graduated from college, Itaro had just finished the third grade. Hikaru returned home for a while before she found a place to stay closer to the city where she had gotten a job. Shiru had left the country to go to the US. The three stayed in touch for several years. However, once Shiru had a wife and his dream job out in the US, the shade spirit haunting him finally drove him to suicide. He was only twenty nine years old when he died. Hikaru took a break from work and stayed with her parents and fourteen year old Itaro for a while. His widow also came from the US to help plan the funeral. Only a year later, Itaro fell ill and died shortly after contracting the disease. Hikaru, having just buried her older brother, was forced to deal with the death of her closest sibling. Her mind simply snapped and she quickly deteriorated in health until she was taken into a mental hospital. After residing there for half a year, she got a hold of a knife and killed herself rather brutally. She discovered, once released from her shell, that she was not to have killed herself that day and had gone against the Reapers' plans. Once a spirit, the memories of past lives returned to her. Sickened and heartbroken by her latest life, which happened to be one of the worst ones her spirit endured, convinced herslef that almost each and everyone ended poorly for those she cared about. She held a grudge towards Heaven for her loved ones never having a guardian, and she hated Hell for the Shades that indirectly killed her family members and even the Reapers for taking the others from her. Deciding that she would be able to get the best revenge on Heaven by destroying it, she made her goal the complete take over and conquest of Hell. She kept her name from her latest life, Hikaru, and changed her last name to mean "of Hell". As a Reaver, she intends to take as many spirits as she can to build up an army that can help her take over Hell and then attack Heaven. [/center][/indent][/size]

[SIZE=1]Gah! I've disappeared. ;-; Since this part wasn't in the TV show, I don't know what's gonna happen, and it makes me all the more curious to find out! >:3 Your OB equivalents of the original digidestined are quite accurate if a bit exaggerated (I can't imagine myself being as nice as Kari for so long >.>). Now whenever I see a post by any of them, I'm gonna have a mental image of the characters from the show. If that happens, I forgive Mike for any drooling that occurs in his presence. xD;[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Couldn't think of my [i]real[/i] first name, huh? ;D No worries. People call me 'Kitty' outside of OB anyway. xD Story is cool so far. I never would have thought to mix OB and Digimon, but it works surprisingly well. o: It'll be fun to compare the OB characters with the ones from the first season (since I watched it religiously, lol), and I gotta love the name 'Otakumon'. It doesn't seem all that amazing, but it rocks my socks. xD Plus I love actually being in an OB fic instead of just reading them, lol. It makes me feel... popular. ;P I expect to see more!

[size=1][indent][color=#830093]The room was dark and cluttered with shadows, dancing around the walls by the light of a single candle resting on the table in the center. A solitary figure casually circled the shelves of books that rested along the walls. [b]"Blasted candle... Gives off hardly enough light,"[/b] the figure mumbled in a low, burly voice. He grabbed a book and brought it towards the light only to reveal that it had a moving mouth on the cover. He paused for a moment before sighing. [b]"I've known you far too long to be startled by that anymore."[/b] [b]"A shame, a shame,"[/b] giggled the grin as it fluttered off the book as two yellow eyes appeared, followed by the rest of his purple and pink striped body. He wagged his bushy tail in the face of his acquaintance before floating up in the air. The shadowed figure approached the candle, but remained with his face in shadow. [b]"So, you've decided to leave Wonderland for good?"[/b] The cat said nothing, and when the figure asked again, he merely began playing with the candle's flame with his paws. [b]"How to you intend to find it?"[/b] The question was ambigious, but both of them understood what he was talking about. However, after being met with silence again, he chuckled. [b]"Or is it that a magician never reveals his tricks?"[/b] [b]"For a magician that uses tricks, that may be so. But a true wizard keeps no secrets and only tells all truths,"[/b] the cat answered, pulling his head off his shoulders and spinning it on his finger like a ball. The figure's grin was visible even in the dim candle light. [b]"Is that so? Well, I believe it's about time now. One of them should be arriving soon, so don't wait until it's too late."[/b] With an odd glint in his eye, the cat's body slowly began to disappear, starting with his tail and ending with only a floating mouth that spoke in an unusually calm, straight-forward way as it slowly fell down towards the table. [b]"The Cheshire Cat is [i]never[/i] late."[/b] And with that, he was gone.[/color] Kairi awoke with a start and sat straight up. She looked around to see she was in her room. Her room was mostly neat, having just been cleaned the other day, and the window above her bed was still shut. Nothing was out of the ordinary, except she was still in her clothes from yesterday, though she convinced herself she had just fallen asleep in them, and her blanket and bedsheets covered only her feet while the rest were strewn out on the floor. She blinked for a moment before thinking to herself that she must have kicked them off while she was asleep. [b]"But... I've never had a problem with moving around in my sleep before,"[/b] she thought quietly to herself. And then she wondered what had awoken her so suddenly, only to be stricken with the similar feeling of bad things to come in the pit of her stomach. She stood up quickly and stared out her window to see figures moving on the beach below. Without another word, she jumped off her bed, ran downstairs, put her shoes on and ran out the door. [b]"Riku, Sora... I won't be left behind again,"[/b] she whispered as she ran towards the beach.[/indent] ---- [b]OOC:[/b] Hope this is alright KW. :3 I didn't know how to introduce Kairi into the fight scene, so I just made her head that way. Feel free to have her participate or watch (either is fine). As for the Cheshire Cat, he won't arrive for a while, and I won't post as him everytime. If you have any questions/thoughts/complaints about him, KW, please PM and I'll explain. :3[/size]

[SIZE=1]I've been looking for a chance to use this OC of mine for quite a while now. xD;; Thank you for coming up with this! I hope you don't mind, but I've already got team mates for her. I'll be playing them as well, but I don't know if I need seperate signs ups for them or not. Tell me if I do. :3 Oh, and all names are surname first, given name last. Sorry it's not all finished yet. --- [b]Name[/b]- Dakishime Ayame "Panda" [b]Age[/b]- 13 [b]Gender[/b]- Female [B]Village[/B]- Sunagakure [Hidden Sand] [B]Rank[/B]- Genin [B]Appearance[/B]- Long black hair, held back in a single braid with white hair ties, with a small white patch in her bangs. Pale/fair skin with gray eyes. Wears a white tank top with black straps and black sleeves/gloves that start below the shoulder and reach over her hands; a white skirt that has a slit around her thigh; panda sneakers (black bottoms, black ears, white eyes w/ black circles and mouths) that reach her ankle with a black stocking on her left leg and a white stocking on her right. Stands 5?6? and weighs around 118 lbs. [B]Abilities[/B]- Panda carries the standard scrolls and senbon (throwing needles), but is more partial to use her bamboo tonfa. She has long been able to control her chakra better than her classmates at the Academy, as well as her team mates as a genin. Because of this, her mother, being a specialist jounin, helped her master her own summoning jutsu at a very young age. Since she was eight, she has been able to summon Peko-Peko, a giant panda almost as big as Gamabunta. She is also a master of Earth-related techniques like [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninjutsu_%28Naruto%29#Doton:_Doroku_Gaeshi_.28Earth_Release:_Earth_Shore_Return.29]Earth Release: Split Earth Turn Around Palm[/url], [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninjutsu_%28Naruto%29#Doton:_Retsudotensho_.28Earth_Release:_Split_Earth_Turn_Around_Palm.29]Earth Release: Earth Shore Return[/url], and [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninjutsu_%28Naruto%29#Yoraishin_.28God_of_Night_Lightning.29]God of Night Lightning[/url]. [B]Bio/Backgrond[/B]- [Edit] [B]Personality[/B]- Panda is constantly smiling, caring, and too nice for her own good at times. She is also extremely perceptive, capable of sensing the true intentions of almost anyone. However, this extremely kind side of her is not present when she is in battle. She remains gracious and honorable, but fights to win and achieve her goal, whatever that may be. She is extremely attached to and protective of Miki, as she was her first real friend and also the one who gave her the now permanent nickname ?Panda? for her hair, and has since worn only black and white clothing. She does have her insecurity, but she feels nothing but glee when around her best friend.

[indent][size=1][color=darkred]Dri sat on a crate, legs folded, thinking quietly to herself about the pros and cons of going off to find out what the 'figure' actually was. Her curiousity was quickly outweighing her knowledge that Lady Key and the others would rather make a plan or avoid the issue all together rather than investigate. Resolving that she would plan on the way there, but go alone, Dri quietly hopped off her seat of the moment and inched towards the door. [b]"Dri, where are you going?"[/b] Elliot, who had been asked as he noticed her trying to slip out the door unnoticed while the others were talking. She growled at him for a moment, fearing that the others would have heard him, before disappearing out the door. Elliot, almost sure that she was about to try something reckless, left after her only to catch her right before she leapt onto the rooftop, weapon in hand. He asked her again, catching her off guard for a moment. Turning around, she let out a sigh of relief as she saw that it was only him. [b]"I'm going to look for this 'mystery threat' thing. I know Key would be against it, being without a plan and whatever, so I wanna go before she finds out,"[/b] Dri smiled, twirling her scythe around her finger. Elliot stared back at her blankly. [b]"I'm not letting you go alone at night. We don't know who or what is the source of all the rumors, but whatever it is, it's probably dangerous."[/b] Dri frowned, knowing it would be hard to persuade him to let her go. She placed her scythe back on her back and casually strolled towards him, grinning wide. [b]"Aww... Elli's being protective. How cute!"[/b] she giggled. [b]"But really, big guy, I'm no damsel in distress here. I can take care of myself, and my powers are stronger at night, too."[/b] By now, her rotation around him and left her behind him. She stood on her toes to reach his neck and whispered loudly. [b]"And as charming as you may be, you aren't any prince."[/b] [b]"You [i]aren't[/i] going alone,"[/b] he said firmly, turning around, grabbing her wrist and holding it up. She paused for a moment, surprised at his unyielding, before recovering and making her infamous innocent face. [b]"But do we have to go with the others? Can it just be us?"[/b] He was silent for a minute before letting go of her. [b]"I hate that face, you know."[/b] [b]"Yeah, yeah. Now c'mon! Before they figure out where we're going,"[/b] Dri laughed, grabbing a hold of his arm and pulling him after her. As the two ran through the alleys, Elliot tried to convince her that this was stupid, but she was too busy humming to pay attention. [center]--- Second District, Elysium ---[/center] [b]"I can't believe you talked me into this. I should've told Lady Key,"[/b] Elliot mumbled. Dri hushed him over her shoulder as she continued climbing along the wall of the large inn. [b]"Surely they've noticed us missing by now and have started to come look for us.[/b] [b]"Why? Are you [i]scared[/i] of the big bad shadow monster?"[/b] Dri teased. Elliot rolled his eyes. [b]"Besides, it's probably just a high-and-mighty idiot that thinks he can freak the players still in Elysium out. And if it is a monster, I'll protect you."[/b] She stiffled a giggle as she reached the edge of another building's roof and used it to launch herself onto the roof of the inn. Elliot followed easily, though his balance was off when he landed and he crashed onto his back with a thud. Dri laughed quietly before helping him up. [b]"You're the only monster I know, and besides. I'm afraid of what Lady Key's going to do to us, rather than some brat with too much time on his hands,"[/b] he replied. Dri was silent, which made him raise an eyebrow. [b]"Dri? What is it?"[/b] She moved her hand over his mouth and pointed towards the moon. As he turned his head slowly, he saw the lone figure standing on top of the lighthouse. Even though it was far away, both of them could feel the shadow's icy stare. [b]"I think that's him,"[/b] Dri whispered. Elliot mumbled something, but it was stiffled by her hand still over his mouth. As her hand slowly returned to her side, the figure crouched for a moment before jumping high in the air and falling back down to earth, but several buildings were in the way of the two Sigma Fi Omega members' line of sight. [b]"Quick, before he gets too far!"[/b] Dri cheered as she ran off, leaving Elliot behind to decide whether or not to follow her. --- [B]OOC[/B]: Alright, I wasn't sure exactly what to do, so I just dragged BKstyle's character along with me, lol. Other Sigma Fi Omega players (Elliot included), feel free to join Dri in pursuit of the shadow/figure. Dunno if she'll catch it or not, but it's the chase that counts. ;D[/color][/size][/indent]

[SIZE=1][b]#9:[/b] I'll go with spoiler tags. :3[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1][Sign Up 1] [B]Name[/B]- Cheshire Cat [B]Age[/B]- ? [B]Side[/B]- ? [B]Story[/B]- Little is known about the Cheshire Cat's past, other than he once accompanied Alice and the other creatures inhabiting Wonderland. Who knows why he left; only he does. Of course, by "left", I mean permanently. There were many times when he could not be found, and was thought to have disappeared for good, only to miraculously reappear, later saying he had simply "been in the same place at a different time." He let it slip [or more likely, intentionally accidentally mentioned] to the White Rabbit that he was off to find a boy he had once encountered, being that it was the time for them to meet again. The other Wonderland inhabitants, once informed of this, believe he is off to find Sora. [B]Personality[/B]- The Cheshire Cat is, without a doubt, quite the confusing mystery. No one other than he himself knows of his motives. He knows all the answers but tells only a few, and only when the right questions are asked. He is sometimes seen as a nuisance, other times a savior. But all the time, he is himself. [B]Weapon[/B]- The Cheshire Cat is, rather than a fighter with conventional weapons, an observer and a guide that uses his spells when the time comes. And of course, like all other things regarding this particularly mysterious cat, only he knows when that is. [B]Magic/Abilities[/B]- The Cheshire Cat's magic abilities are, for the most part, unknown, but it is confirmed that he knows the basic elemental trio [Fire, Blizzard, Thunder]. He also has the ability to teleport and become invisible, as well as dismember parts of his body and rearrange them as he feels like [though that seems like it would be more of a past-time than an actual useful technique or anything]. It is also suspected that he may be able to time travel. [B]Picture[/B]- [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9c/Cheshire-Cat-Disney.jpg[/img] [Sign Up 2] [b]Name[/b]- Kairi [b]Age[/b]- 16 [b]Side[/b]- Light [b]Story[/b]- Having mysteriously arrived at Destiny Islands when she was young, she caused quite a stir in the lives of the inhabitants, especially two boys by the names of Riku and Sora. Her, at the time, platonic love for the two of them led them to develop a rivalry for her attention and affection. When the darkness reached their island home only two years ago, the three childhood friends were seperated. Kairi entrusted her heart with Sora and remembers little of her own adventure through the many worlds. After her heart was returned, she stayed behind when Sora followed Ansem's heartless and defeated it. After the Door to the Light was sealed, and Riku inside of it, she was once again reunited with Sora, though only temporarily. For another year, she waited for her friends, knowing that they would return to the island someday. Sora and Riku arrived together, and the three were together again. Now, the darkness has returned for Riku, but Kairi isn't going to let him go without a fight. [b]Personality[/b]- Kairi is strong-willed, caring, generous, and trusting. Her deep connections with both Sora and Riku, and after all the things they went through, have contributed to her almost over-protective attitude of them at times, and vice versa. As defenseless as she used to be, she is now much more involved with the fighting her childhood friends experience, though she is more of a spell-caster than an actual sword-swinger. She is very serious when it comes to her responsibilities and promises, having never broken one before. [b]Weapon[/b]- Kairi's determination to help protect Riku from the darkness has manifested itself in both the rapid development of her magic, and a keyblade by the name of [i]Intertwining Destiny[/i], which is much like the Oathkeeper, which she gave Sora two years ago. It is snow white with a yellow, paupu-fruit-shaped blade and keychain. The white handle has six spikes that go around it. Also, the snow white part of the keyblade is tangled with a thick blue and a thick green wire wrapping around it and the tips of the blade at the top, and also coming off the top of the handle in 'horns'. [I would provide a picture, but I lack any artistic ability, whatsoever. xD] [b]Magic/Abilities[/b]- [list][*][i]Curaga[/i] While in Traverse Town two years ago, Kairi met Aerith, along with Leon and Yuffie, who taught her Cure. Her magical ability has increased since then, and the spell has developed into Curaga. At this point, it can fully restore the health of anyone. Uses lots of MP. [*][i]Aero[/i] The defensive spell can be cast on either herself or a friendly target. Being at the basic stage, it does not last very long or do any damage to anyone that hits it. It does prevent attacks from reaching the person who the spell is cast on, though. [*][i]Stopra[/i] Stopra can affect multiple intended targets at once, and being at the second stage, has a better range, allowing her to use the spell effectively from a distance. It lasts for a little over a minute, allowing lots of attacks to be dealt to or plenty of distance to be gained from enemies while the spell is in effect.[/list] [b]Picture[/b]- [img]http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/9544/kairikk0.png[/img] --- [b]OOC[/b]: I dunno why I chose the Cheshire Cat, but he seems like the most fun to play since he isn't a character that I have played before [as in Sora, Roxas, etc.]. I hope he doesn't seem too unfair or anything. Of course, feel free to PM about changes and stuff. I'm perfectly capable of changing the entire thing around if necessary, so just let me know. This looks like fun, though, and I hope to get in. [b]EDIT[/b]: Alright, I added my second sign up. ^_^ I'll have to finish it later 'cause I'm not on my own computer and this one likes to restart itself on me. D: Will still add more to the story, too. [b]EDIT2[/b]: I finished! Yay! I gave Kairi defensive spells, basically because I don't see her as a person that's very good at attacking. I gave her a keyblade anyway, but only because she needs something to cast spells with. It can [and most likely will] be used the way keyblades should be, but not very often. Anyway, let me know if anything needs changing.[/size]

[size=1][b]"Yes sir, here is the key to your hotel room,"[/b] the hotel clerk said as she handed Carter a card key, a slight blush on her face. [b]"Thanks. Oh, hey. Do you know any good places to eat around here?"[/b] The clerk thought for a moment before suggesting both the restaurant in the hotel and one a few blocks away that served a wide variety of fish by the name of "Poissons Cuit". Carter raised an eyebrow at the name when she wrote it down for him. [b]"I don't speak French or anything, but doesn't that say "Cooked Poison"?"[/b] She laughed for a moment before reassuring him that food there was excellent and poison-free. When he reached his room on the fifth floor, he dropped his suitcase and backpack on the bed and took a glance out of the window before he heard the buzz of his phone vibrating around in his bag. He pulled it out and read the message, which was from Rei. As he read it, he wondered why he should be worried about Interpol. He wasn't that threatening of a guy. He just wants to have some fun, that's all, he thought to himself. [b]"Speaking of fun, that girl was pretty cute,"[/b] he mumbled to himself. As he unpacked, he told himself to remember to ask that girl out for a drink later. [center]-----[/center] [b]"Rei?"[/b] Carter blurted out, spotting his old acquaintance. The brunette whipped around on her bar stool, surprised to hear his voice. As far as she had known, he was still out of town. [b]"Crash! Did you get--"[/b] she paused when she saw the young girl next to him. When he noticed, he asked her if she would excuse him for a moment and brought Rei to a seperate table. [b]"Did you get the message?"[/b] she whispered, making sure no one would hear her. [b]"Yeah. But who exactly are you inviting to this thing? I mean, I only know one person that might be a target for Interpol bugs other than you. The racing scene is full of ex-cons and shit, but seriously. If you were serious in your message, does that mean you're inviting [i]assassins[/i] to race?"[/b] he asked her sarcastically. [b]"Yup."[/b] [b]"Yeah, I thou-- ... Wait, there are going to be assassins at this race?"[/b] She nodded casually. [b]"You in?"[/b] she asked, raising an eyebrow. He took a second to think about it before sighing and relaxing back into his seat. [b]"Hell yeah. This thing sounds serious, so I'll be bringing my S7 from the garage."[/b] [b]"Sounds fun. See you tomorrow night, then. I think you should go back to your date, though. She looks impatient,"[/b] Rei chuckled, noting the foot taping and constant looks over the shoulder from the young woman. Carter laughed as he got up and gave his friend one last wave before returning to the bar and ordering his date another drink. ---- OOC: Sorry if it was short, Dare. I hope I did it right. PM me if there's anything that needs fixing.[/size]

[SIZE=1]Your explanation of an "SMS" at the end of your post didn't really clarify it for me. I still have no idea what it is, and I don't know if I need to know before I post. So, if you could tell me either through PM or by posting here, I'd appreciate it. ^_^; I bet this means I'm extremely dense, doesn't it? xD[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1][color=#A88D86]Isabella had logged off a while ago when she was called down for dinner, and ended up taking an extra long time because she had to do the clean up afterwards. Now that she was done, she ran back upstairs to resume playing Elements. She was seemingly excited, though nothing that impressive had been going on for her that day.[/color] [indent]--- [b]Log In[/b] Username: Izz Password: ********* ---[/indent] Izz let out a yawn, stretching out her arms in front of her as she usually did as a small 'warm up'. She had already checked her messages and recieved nothing other than an event notice. Though the event sounded interesting, she was more intruiged about her mount. A gryphon would make more quests available to her, being able to get practically anywhere in the world with a mount, and regular traveling a breeze. As the note promised, once she arrived at the Bank of Aduin, one of the winged beasts was waiting for her. Though she wasn't planning on leaving just yet, she mounted the creature and flew around the city. After a few minutes of this, she noticed that the dragon was coming. People that would be wanting to quickly come to Aduin, most likely to take part in the event, would be riding the Element world's version of public transportation. Izz was far too lazy to look for a coin the size of a [i]toenail[/i] by herself, this would be the perfect opportunity to find players to make a team with. Landing only moments before the dragon, as Izz dismounted, she watched casually from a distance as several players jumped off the large beast. She had been playing long enough to distinguish the experienced from the amateur, and all but one were new enough to the game to still be unskilled. The player she picked out, obviously of the Shadow faction, stayed behind while the others scattered, and she assumed he was waiting to meet with someone. [b]"Crap, he probably already has a party,"[/b] she mumbled to herself. [b]"Well... I'll ask him anyway. If he does have one, I'll tag along, whether they like it or not."[/b] She giggled mischievously as she approached, her new mount in tow. [b]"Nice horse."[/b] He turned around to face Izz as she walked up to him, raising an eyebrow at her. [b]"Why didn't you ride it here instead of the dragon?"[/b] [b]"Can you imagine how long traveling all the way from the Necropolis on foot?"[/b] he replied calmly. [b]"But... You wouldn't be on foot. You'd be on a horse."[/b] [b]"..."[/b] [b]"[i]Aaaanyway[/i], as you can tell by Panda standing here--"[/b] [b]"Who's Panda?"[/b] he asked, noting that the two were the only players around. [b]"He is,"[/b] she replied sincerely, pointing at her gryphon. [b]"Y-You named it Panda?"[/b] he stuttered, baffled at the girl's naming of her mount. [b]"Why would you name a mount?"[/b] [b]"Because he looks like a panda? Look, see? He's got black spots around his eyes and he's mostly white. Just like a panda."[/b] She paused, but he said nothing. Remembering what she had first been talking about, she continued. [b]"But as I was saying, I got the event message, just like you, and I want to get a coin. Fake or not, I want one so I can keep Panda. I'm positive I won't be able to find one on my own, either because of my lack of luck or just laziness, so I want to team up with you. If you're already part of a team, I'll join it, too."[/b] [b]"You aren't interested in what else the coins can win you?"[/b] She shook her head and waited for his reply. [b]"Um... Sure, I guess. Oh, I don't think I told you my name. I'm Gabriel. What's your name?"[/b] [b]"Izz!"[/b] she told him, making a proud pose for a moment before breaking into a series of giggles. It surprised Gabriel, as it did many players, that she could possibly be as experienced as she claimed to be. [b]"Isadora?"[/b] [b]"Nooo.. My username is just Izz. My real name is Isabella, though,"[/b] she added absent mindedly. She began rambling about how many people she had run into that had a similar screename, stroking Panda while he laid down next to her. Gabriel looked around, but no one else was in sight. She eventually quieted down, as she normally did whenever she got bored. [b]So who are you waiting for?"[/b] [b]"A player named Isadora, but she goes by Izzy,"[/b] Gabriel explained, currently leaning against his demon horse. [b]"That'd be confusing now that we're going to be in the same party... That's it! I'll call her "Rara"!"[/b] [b]"Where did you get [i]that[/i] name?"[/b] he asked, raising a fairly curious eyebrow. [b]"You know, Isado-[i]ra[/i]? One of my nicknames is "Lala", from Isabella, so I'll call her "Rara","[/b] she explained. Gabriel merely shook his head, wondering to himself whether or not the still-absent Izzy would appreciate or even acknowledge the new nickname. --- OOC: Well, Boo, hope I didn't mess up with Gabriel. And Dare, feel free to accept or reject the nickname when you join the party.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1][B]Real Name:[/B] Bianca Murphey [B]Age:[/B] 17 [B]Delta Name:[/B] Ahndri (casually referred to as 'Dri') [B]Delta Age:[/B] 19 [B]Team Name:[/B] Sigma Fi Omega [B]Class:[/B] Dark Knight [B]Player Rank:[/B] 3 [B]Weapon:[/B] [url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/PicKitty/RandomPicchus/7d09d062.jpg]Scythe[/url] - Dri carries her scythe on her back when not in battle. [B]Personality:[/B] Unlike some of her teammates, Dri is almost the exact opposite of Bianca in several ways, seeing the Delta universe as a place where she can be someone she knows she couldn't be in the real world. Dri is outspoken, hyper and flirtatious, though some may also consider her cocky because of the way she demeans almost every other player. She enjoys flirting with Elliot and her other team members because she gets a kick out of how they react. As much as the other players in Sigma Fi Omega seem to dislike her at times, she sees them all as friends. She also respects Lady Key, who she sees as an older sister figure, being an only child in reality. No matter how immature and somewhat disrespectful she may act, she admires each and every one of her teammates, and after being stuck in Delta with them for so long, she has grown extremely attached to them, though she'd never say it herself. When it comes to fighting, she is unpredictable and extremely serious. She is a very dedicated team player, and will never leave her teammates behind. Her confidence in battle is not ill-founded, having played in the world of Delta for a long time even before the disappearance of Callipso. [B]Abilities/Magic:[/B] [i]Shadow Reaper[/i] - This technique allows Dri's shadow to act on its own, though under her control and constantly attached to her at the feet. Her shadow then uses the shadow of her scythe to attack other shadows, damaging the actual player or object. Even without a weapon, her shadow can hold onto another and slow or stop movement. Her shadow returns to normal once she commands it, becomes exhausted, or the spell is broken by more powerful magic. However, because of Dri's class having low MP, it can only be used in exchange for all of her MP, forcing her to use this magic very rarely.

[SIZE=1]Gavin's made of laxitives, eh? Weeeeeeeeeeird... Anyway, love the story so far. *nodnod* And I agree with Tical. "Jokopokonocchio" has got to be the best name ever.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]I'm just going to guess, though this looks like a really cool idea. Thanks to White for advertising. xP [b]#3[/b]: I'll say the Jukebox.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Dude. [i]Awesome[/i] moose hat. Anyways, I'm sorry you still don't have CS2. D: I haven't done a request set in a really long time, so I'm going to give this one a shot. I'll have the avatar and banner up sometime tomorrow. I hope you'll like 'em. ^__^ [b]EDIT[/b]: Here they are. I did a bunch of different versions, but these are my favorites. They're in black and white like your example, though I did them in color, too, if you'd prefer them that way. If you'd like to see the other sets, let me know.

[SIZE=1][B]Report filed by:[/B] Los Angeles PD ---- [B]Name:[/B] Carter Russell [i]Racing Alias:[/i] Crash [B]Age:[/B] 20 [B]Gender:[/B] Male [b]Appearance:[/b] [url=http://ic1.deviantart.com/fs6/i/2005/065/5/b/Homnoct_10_by_homnoct_stock.jpg]Here[/url] [B]Occupation:[/B] Owner of the successful bar "Formula 21" [while away, taken care of by a close friend/co-owner], Enrolled College Student [attends rarely; manages to keep grades up high enough to not be kicked out] [B]Nationality:[/B] American/Australian [B]not-so-Short Bio:[/B] Born to an American business man and an Australian artist in Los Angeles, CA, Carter was raised to be both richly cultured and educated. However, after an incident involving fireworks and the fifth floor bathroom that led to his expulsion from a private elementary school, he became more of a lazy kid with delinquent friends. Having rich parents, his large home came with an incredible garage full of everything from motorcycles to Grand Prix qualifying cars to expensive mountain bikes. Some of his middle school friends tricked him into letting them into the normally Off-Limits collection, where they proceeded to joyride in his father's 1969 Ferrari 312P (one of his most expensive, and favorites). Surprisingly, the experience made him realize how much he loved cars (when before, he concentrated on models, and now, the actual things). However, he was intensly punished because of his formal grand theft auto charge despite the owner being his father, though all the charges against him were dropped, and he lost his father's trust. Ever since, Carter has been studying, working on and driving all types of cars, though he is attending college for a major in English. Since he turned 16 and could legally drive, he's been doing so, without his parent's knowing, of course, using school club activities as an excuse to stay out of the house longer. At 17, he became one of the youngest to enter the underground racing circuits in LA, and only half a year later, the Japanese and European circuits. Using his own wealth from his prospering bar, and going by the alias of "Crash", a nickname he developed from a habit of blindly walking into things for no reason, he has won numerous races around the world, but especially in Japan. He lives on his own in a small and cheap apartment in downtown LA, using all his money on traveling and his own car garage, one that could rival even his father's. Even though he gains a lot of profit by winning races, his mother is unaware of this, incorrectly seeing him as a college student with low-income, and gives him monthly checks for food and rent, along with some extra money which he saves. His father is, while not positive, suspicious of his son's activities and, ever since the loss of his 1969 Ferrari, has been very detached regarding his son, and would rather send money he feels Crash doesn't deserve rather than deal with him in person. ---- [B]Traffic Offences:[/B] - Grand Theft Auto, charges dropped [1 count] - Excessive Speeding [14 counts] - Drunk Driving [4 counts] - Driving Without a License [8 counts] - Destruction of Private Property [1 count] ---- [B]Preferred Rides:[/B] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_SLR_McLaren]Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren[/url]: Casual driving and minor/low-stakes races - Color: [color=#CBCBCB][b]Silver[/b][/color] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotus_Exige]Lotus Exige[/url]: Casual driving/travel - Color: [b]Black[/b] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saleen_S7]Saleen S7[/url]: Racing Only - Color: [color=#8E0000][b]Red[/b][/color] ---- [B]Known Associations:[/B] [Will Continue to Edit] Fudokawa Kanaye Aurora Armeni (Rei) Harrison Said Katrina J.

[size=1][color=#1e7628]I don't think you did anything wrong Takuya. I haven't posted again because I don't really see an opening for my character. I don't want to just barge in and attach myself to a group, yours, Takuya, or White's, so I'm waiting for an 'opening', I guess. I could just go do my own thing, but where's the fun in that? :P But yeah, that's why I'm not posting for now.[/color][/size]

[COLOR=#1e7628][SIZE=1]Anyone who read my post all the way through knows that my character got a new weapon. For details, check my post in the sign up thread [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showpost.php?p=733743&postcount=13]here[/url].[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#1e7628][SIZE=1][b]"Hmm... It's okay, but I'm looking for something... better."[/b] The player attempting to sell his goods to Izz was growing quite frustrated with her pickiness. Tired of her looking at weapon after weapon and not liking any of them, he returned the latest reject to his inventory and stalked off as he decided to take his business elsewhere, but not before saying something rather rude. [b]"Moody, much?"[/b] she grumbled. Waving a hand passively, his comment quickly fluttered out her other ear, and she started wandering around the marketplace in search of experienced players that might have the weapon she was looking for, though she still wasn't sure what it was yet. As she explored, she heard the loud, startled cries of a group of women as a tall man with black hair drapped his arms around them. Suddenly, he was gone. The women players glanced at each other before wiping off their shoulders and walking away. Izz hadn't heard what the man had said, but she could've guessed anyway, since he had gotten banned for it. She laughed at her own imagination as she continued walking around. [b]"... and yes, that's right, this sword was once used by the now retired, Rosco the Great!"[/b] Many "oohs" and "aahs" floated out from a group of newbies surrounding the salesman. Izz would normally ignore such sales, as they were usually rip-offs, but the name Rosco made her ears perk up. He was an old acquaintance of hers, and the two once adventured together to get the Sword of Clao, though she ended up letting him take it when they parted ways. Pushing her way through the crowd, she finally saw the player who claimed to have one of Rosco's swords. Sure enough, it was undoubtedly the Sword of Clao. [b]"This sword, when equipped, will double almost all--"[/b] [b]"I'll take it!"[/b] Izz shouted happily. This was the weapon she wanted. The eyes of the newbies and the salesmen, too, were glued to her as if she had just confessed to being a cannibal or something ridiculous like that. [b]"Umm... Sure, I guess. But can you afford it? It's rather--"[/b] [b]"How is half a mil'?"[/b] she interrupted again. The newbies, who had been staring at the sword longfully, knew they'd never get it once they heard her offer and began to disperse. The player happily handed over the sword after she placed a large bag of money in front of him and ran off to do who knows what with his new loot. Izz quickly equipped her new weapon and immediately felt the difference. Putting it back in its sheath that now rested on her hip, she returned to wandering the marketplace, now in search of a place to sell her old small sword.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[color=#1e7628][size=1]I think I posted about her as being a water sprite, though it didn't make much of a difference in my last post, which is probably why I never mentioned it. Sorry for any confusion.[/color][/size]

[COLOR=#1e7628][SIZE=1][B]"Aoi! Aoi, have you heard?"[/b] Aym shouted, running towards her friend. [b]"Aym, be quiet! You know you're supposed to refer to me as General,"[/b] she sighed, grabbing her by the arm and pulling her aside. Aym waved a hand passively at Aoi's worry, and instead shoved a slip of paper into her hand. [b]"Nobody cares about that crap, [i]General[/i]. I only have to worry when there are other superiors around. Now read!"[/b] [b]"I've been reassigned? For what?!"[/b] she cried. She had been in charge of Glowing Star's defensive forces for the past month and a half. She enjoyed this much better than being on the offensive because of her dislike of violence. [b]"Apparently, the Crimson Blaze army is advancing on Raven's Eye much faster than any of us thought. Our army there is being led by General Athek, but the higher ups don't think he's doing a good job. So, they want you to get over there and help out with making plans and giving orders. Oh, and bring a quarter of the defensive army along with you, too,"[/b] Aym explained. Aoi raised an eyebrow at her friend. [b]"And how do you know all this?"[/b] [b]"I know everything and anything. You know that,"[/b] she winked. [b]"Now c'mon. We've got to get you packed."[/b] [b]"B-But..."[/b] Aoi attempted to protest, but Aym was much too excited to allow her a word in edgewise. ~ [i]A few hours later...[/i] [b]"General Hada,"[/b] Athek grimaced as he shook her scale-covered hand. [b]"General Athek. Sorry about this. It wasn't my idea,"[/b] she sighed. Aym stood behind her while a young commander stood beside Athek. [b]"I've come here ahead of my small aid division. I've left a few major generals in charge and they should meet up with your army this time two days from today if we start moving early tomorrow and keep a steady pace."[/b] [b]"I figured that,"[/b] he replied in a relaxed tone, though he was clearly not happy with her presence. He was clearly unafraid of her, a trait very scarce in most people Aoi meets for the first time, and much more annoyed than anything that anyone thought he needed her help in commanding what he considered [i]his[/i] army. She glanced back at Aym who gave her a look that instructed her to remain pleasant. [b]"Well, General Athek, I suppose I'll leave you be for now. I will meet with you again tomorrow. Good night,"[/b] she smiled, bowing before turning and walking out of his large tent which served as his office, Aym close behind her. [b]"Well, he's not very nice,"[/b] Aym chuckled. [b]"What am I doing here? He's obviously on top of things, and I'm just annoying him, and--"[/b] Aoi rambled before Aym slapped a hand over her mouth. [b]"Did you see his office? It's a mess. Papers were all over the floor, maps were scattered along his desk, and that other guy had just finished putting things back on the desk that were obviously thrown off in a frustrated tantrum. This guy needs help, he just doesn't want it from a female half-dragon, that's all."[/b] Aoi looked back over her shoulder at the large tent, a frown set firmly on her face. Why would he find her presence a challenge to his command? She didn't want to be here just as much as he didn't want her to be. [b]"Geez... I need a steak,"[/b] she sighed. Aym promptly directed her towards the food tent. Aoi asked her how she knew where it was, but was again answered by her friend's catch phrase and laughing. --- OOC: Sorry it took so long for me to post. Didn't know how to introduce Aoi, but Takuya's last post gave me a bit of inspiration. If there's anything wrong with my post, PM me.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#1e7628][SIZE=1][B]Name:[/B] Isabella Laurens [B]Birthdate:[/B] August 3, 2005 [B]Gender:[/B] Female [B]Username:[/B] Izz [B]Appearance:[/B] [url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/PicKitty/RandomPicchus/characterimage1.jpg]Isabella[/url] (picture and art (c) [url=http://fetalstar.deviantart.com]fetalstar@devART[/url]) In the game, Izz looks just like this, except with the addition of a small sword attached at her hip instead of a bag, she's wearing shorts instead of jeans, goggles instead of glasses that she keeps either on her forehead or loosely around her neck, and she has a large sky tattoo on her right shoulder. [B]Faction:[/B] Wind [B]Class:[/B] Fighter [b]Weapon:[/b] Izz has recently replaced her old small sword with the [url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/PicKitty/RandomPicchus/KSF-1_Perspective_2.jpg]Sword of Clao[/url], a powerful sword once used by an old acquaintance, now retired. Originally found in the Temple of Clao, before the server it resided in was deleted and replaced with larger and more difficult servers during EVI's second upgrade and expansion, the Sword of Clao was actually designed for players of the Light faction, but is compatible with Wind and Water players. When equipped, it can increase the player's stats by nearly double, and enables the player to learn several spells normally reserved for members of the Light faction over time, regardless of class. [B]Known Spells:[/B] Izz, being a Wind Faction fighter instead of wizard, has mostly basic spells that can enhance her abilities or protect her in battle or exploring of the EVIO world.[list] [*][b]Flight[/b]: Just as the name says, this spell enables Izz to fly, not just glide, anywhere she wants. The wind she can control surrounds her legs up to her knees, making it look as if she has a ghostly tail rather than human feet, which also makes it impossible to land without uncasting the spell first. [*][b]Disable[/b]: Using the air surrounding her opponent, she can take away their weapon or temporarily prevent them from moving. She can still move around and attack after restricting movement, making this spell potentially very dangerous. [*][b]Protect[/b]: Basically a shield of air she can quickly conjure up to block anything from small rocks to fireballs being thrown at her. It is virtually unbreakable, and can also redirect the projectiles or attacks back at the attacker. [*][b]Wing Strike[/b]: This spell gathers clouds and makes them look like feathery wings that then attach to her back and allow her to fly around her target before diving and detaching right before becoming solid and using the speed gathered from flying downwards to continue going until hitting the target. Similar to her Flight spell, but used primarily as a weapon rather than a means of travel/escape. [/list] [b]Skill Level:[/b] Isabella (Izz) has been playing EVIO since it first came out, back when virtual reality games were not as massively popular as they are today. She is experienced, though not extremely dedicated, but finds the game pleasurable and finds that as reason enough to play as often as she does. --- OOC: Hope my sign up is okay. This looks really cool, White. I'm amazed there are still spots open. xD EDIT: Added the weapon part. :3 EDIT2: After my post, I updated the weapon section. Yes, I went a little overboard. Sorry. >.< If there's anything wrong with it, go ahead and let me know.[/SIZE][/COLOR]
