Avvy 5 Discussion - This Hurts Me More Than It Does You

[Flarecobra]

Ok, time for our shady character to step out of the shadows, so to speak.

Name: ShadowFlare
Age: appears to be 23
Race: Presumed to be human
History: Unknown.
Class: Assassin
Weapons: Daggers, arm-blades, darts.
Skills:

Shadow hide: Allows her to hide completely in shadow. Can only be forced out by spell-nullification skills. Cannot be detected by magical or visual means, but can be discovered by touch.

Shadow Wall: Forms a wall of solid shadow.

Shadow Flare: A strong explosion of dark energy.

Dark Nova: Gathers up as much shadows that she can gather, then launches them at her target, detonating upon impact. Uses up 3 souls.

Shadow Blade: Razor-sharp shadows shoot out at her target.

Darksoul- Seals away magic and skills for a period of time. The time is reduiced if one is highly powerful or resistant to dark magic. Uses up a soul.

Soul Steal- Attempts to steal a single target's soul. Due to the complexity of this skill, it has a low chance of success unless target is weakened.

Summon Shadow Minion- Brings forth a Shadow monster to fight by her side.

Summon Undead- Brings forth an undead monster. Stronger undead take longer to summon. Uses up a stored soul.

Absorb Soul- Absorbs souls in her possession. Can use some skills known by the soul afterward. Uses up a stored soul.

Expel Soul- Releases soul from her body and into whatever she's using to hold souls.

Spells:

Bio 1-3: A cloud of poison engulfs an enemy.
Demi 1-3: A sphere of intense gravity engulfs a target.
Blind: A cloud of darkness covers a target.
Leech: Absorbs life energy to heal herself.
Drain: Absorbs Magic energy to refresh herself.



Now, she won't be very powerful in this RP, as she relies on stored souls for her most powerful skills, and she had left behind her cashe of souls in her realm.

[POS Industries]

Yeah, that seems about passable.

EDIT: What the fuck is this?



That cuts me right to the core, man!

[PyrosNine]

MINE EYES! THE PAIN of FEELING! Damn you Gaia! Damn you for striking us here, where we thought were were safe from you! Time to set my adblocker to DangerLevel Tangerine....

Anywho, since Pyros is out of the game and shall likely be spouting insanities for the rest of this Arpy, Alt Pyros needs a thingy.

Name: Alternate Pyros, also could be called Pyros del SoL. TAIYOOOHHHHH!
Age: Despite normally being an atrocious age, like an Elf, this time he's actually 25.
Race: Winged Fire Elemental. Even he's unsure if he has a race.
History: Raised to be a paragon of virtue, then forced by cruel fate to enter a world full of wickedness and those who disliked him for his wings, Pyros went on a great journey, becoming a masterful swordsman and even taking Ifrit's place as the lord of fire, becoming the embodiment of Fire upon the earth, similar to a deity of our world. Has many misadventures, and was called as a replacement last Avatar RP, where he was shot and presumably killed by GM-Modding, also known as "Your character tripped and fell down the hill, and bashed his head on a pointy rock. He is dead. Game OVER!"

Irked at his loss, Pyros would train for years and seek a rematch, however his fairly inefficient method of traversing dimensions would lead him to the dimensional bubble, where a duplicate of his target was found.
Class: Flying Sword Mage.
Weapons: Any sword is well used in his hands, especially his namesake, the Pyrosian Masamune.
Skills:

Lord of the Flame (But not dance): In his own dimension, Pyros could tell a blaze to die down with but a word, however in other dimensions this is not as true. Currently, his control of fire depends on how much will he exerts.

Flight: He has wings. Duh.

Sharper than any sword: Truth be told, the Pyrosian Masamune is fairly dull for a blade, reflective of Pyros's own dislike of harming others. However, the blade is sharpened by Pyros's energy flowing through it, making it only as sharp as Pyros's resolve. This lends the sword incredible cutting power, capable of cutting through nearly everything, limited only by Pyros' thinking and possibly the will of the person he's trying to cut. (of course, being beaten to death by a blunt sword is also fairly painful)

For instance, Pyros traveled here by hacking apart the boundaries of his dimension, cutting a tear through which he could travel. It is not the most efficient method possible, as it is mostly hacking into a dimension, sensing if his target is there, then hacking through to the next world.

OMG He's Hawt!: Pyros, while unaware of it himself, is incredibly attractive to the female gender, and on some levels, the male as well. His divine beauty sometimes undercuts his more serious moments, and also causes him discomfort at times.

An Orderly Pyros: Theoretically weaker than Pyros, as he is an arbiter of order on his dimension, one of 8 who hold the elements together. In otherwords, he won't be destroying us all with a Turquoise railcar of the damned piloted by Lemur-suited Oompa Loompahs and Lollipop guild members.
(Points if you can remember where the Turquoise railcar comes from)

Also, since the plushie Celsius is a new face:

Name: Celsius/Galcius
Age: 4 hours.
Race: Emo-plushie
History: Designed to be the ultimate Anti-Pyros, Celsius is at her very core an opposite of Pyros, almost to the point of exuding anti-matter.
Class: Thermomage.
Skills: Can generate temperatures close to absolute zero. Due to plushie body's energy limits, cannot sustain such temperatures for long.

I go splat sometimes. =D It's humorous.

[MariusTwilight]

So I'm assuming that I should enter a character I wish to use for this, though I need to find him first. I'll edit him in when I find it..

Here he is! I knew I left him somewhere.

NAME: Marius

APPEARANCE: Human Child of 12 years of age, 3 foot 4 inches. 43 pounds. Skinny build, silver hair, and blue-tinted gray eyes. Always dressed in loose shirt and pants, sometimes sporting a tattered purple cloak that is far too big for him.

Weapons: Prefers not to fight, but does carry one of Nenyel's Shards.

Defences: Airia.

Airia is a shard of Nenyel, and has a shadow-based element, and high defence capabilities. But like Marius, she is also hindered due to age. She is still young in mindset, and has grown good friends with her companion. She has started to tune more to both Marius and the Shadow Plane, and is subsequently able to sustain herself with either direct contact to that specific outer plane, or by being directly in contact with the young child.
While she can be used in an offensive manner, she dislikes unneeded violence, and will only take on the shape of a weapon if there is no other way, and Marius' life is in true danger. Beyond those two conditions, she is constantly kept as a ring worn on varrying fingers, and occasionally as a necklace. While as a ring, Airia reacts to physically threats by growing over Marius' body and acting as living armor, making it incredibly hard to hurt him phyisically. Yet she is unable to bolster his mind as she is too young to get to that point. While in the company of the young Shadow Adept, she has learned a few of his abilities.
Due to her shadow nature, and the constant presence of her companion, Airia has the appearence of a clear crystal clouded with smoke. This also influenced her personality, taking on the mindset of not wanting to be seen except by those who she trusts, and protecting her life companion. The number she trusts are few, and only one person beyond Marius has seen her take a form beyond simple rings or a necklace.
Airia in generally silent to others, and prefers to talk to Marius through her only current mental ability. When she does talk to others, she doesn't speak above a whisper and has a light lisp, which accents her age.

ABILITIES: Marius is a Shadow Adept, but is hindered by his young age. Due to this he is capable of a number of tricks involving shadow, even being able to move it into the air itself. While using any of his shadow abilities, Marius' shadow deforms by either shrinking, growing, or covering his own body, effectively removing it from the surrounding environment.

Shadow Movement: Marius has the ability to simply fall into a shadow that is not his own, and "fall" out of a shadow in the general area. Since he is still learning, he can't move too far in one jump, and can only use this abilitiy a certain number of times in a day.

Shadow Mimic: By combining with his shadow, Marius can attach himself to any one person, and act as their shadow for a limited ammount of time. During this period, he mimics their movements, and is by all non-magical detection a shadow. Since he is young, he cannot mimic his target's movement perfectly, so he may occasionally act differently then his target. He also is present in situations where a shadow shouldn't exist.

String and Marbles: Two shadow spells of his own make, they create shadow in physical form to either trip their opponent by a thin strand of string, or by a number of small, smooth marbles. After initial contact the items fade away.

Mastery of the Shadow: Marius' abilities with shadow are more evolved then those who have general use of shadows. This is due to his limitation, and his sole focus on shadow magic. As such, he is capable of maniuplting shadows in places where no shadows should normally exist, such as in very bright areas or in complete darkness. This is done be accessing the Plane of Shadow itself and using the shadows there. He can also manipulate shadow so that it can take physical form, though not for very long periods of time. Maiuplation of shadows is also possible, but he must be in direct contact with them. Like his other shadow abilities, though, Marius is unable to hold sway over shadows for an extended period of time, though he constantly tries to overcome this shortcoming.
Subsequently, due to his mastery of shadow, Marius may be able to use his abilities in bright lights, but they are severly weakened. The time limit for most of his abilities is shortened, and the child himself shys away from them. This is partly because of his abilities, and partly because of his early childhood.

Additional: Marius is currently in the care of Nikose Tyris, and is almost always seen in his company when not at home. He also generally carries one of several books with him, some of which dictate obscure magic, such as shadow or truespeak, but most are non-magical which he reads to relieve bordem.

Items: Marius tends to carry a number of items on his person, but rarely ever uses them. The most used items, beyond his Shard, he uses are a set of standard lockpicks. He also carries a small hammer, a mirror, a small sack of glass marbles, one of several books, a silver steak, a chess board (but no pieces), several yards of strong string, two smokebombs, a flint and steel, and a whistle.

and ask POS if you can join, but if you're submitting who I think you are I don't see how he could have a problem with that.

[POS Industries]

At the moment, there's really nowhere to bring you in, Marius. However, very soon there will be a time when you might be able to enter. Keep in touch.

[MariusTwilight]

Ah, I wasn't aware that I needed to clear it up first, sorry. And I will.

[Melfice]

Pyros?
The song at the end of your post is weird.

That is all.

[Flarecobra]

Just for any clarification, ShadowFlare was talking about 2006 Raiden.
