No problem. Glad I could help.

Anyone who's interested I would be glad to hear your input. ^^

Here's my character



Name: Elizabeth Terrington
Age: 24
Race: Nightwalker (werewolf)
Nationality : English
Magic: Shapechange
Weapon: Claws and teeth >F

Looks: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/15721016/
She spends most of her time in her human form (at least out of fights) although, she is still a feral looking woman. She is tall and strongly built, her skin pale, her hair grey and her eyes an almost hazel green. Scars are visible on her skin, but they only give her a more ‘distinct’ aura about her, an almost animal magnetism that is considered sexy, almost – at least to males. Women tend to just get annoyed when she’s around :P

She likes to wear a sleeveless white shirt with black tie, neat short leggings with a leather belt around her waist. On her feet she chooses to wear sandals – easy to slip off…

In her were-form her grey hair carries on and grows all over, her head elongating into a distinct canine shape, long, pointy teeth in strong jaws. Her muscles grow bigger, even her size increases, a tail appearing as well as vicious claws on her hands and feet.

Personality:
She is a very forward and confident creature, her animalism almost crossing over into her personality. She knows she is a predator and that the mere humans are her prey and oh boy, she loves to play. The thrill of the chase is everything, no?

She is young, however, the youngest of her family in fact – and this shows a lot in the way she acts. She is inexperienced in the true workings of the world, and sometimes is too quick to act and can become very hot-headed. Becoming impatient easily, Elizabeth can get herself into all sorts of situations, but she also seems to have a strange lucky streak now and again – although this is NOTHING to rely on and most of the time, she learns her lesson the hard way. She takes this all in her stride, bounces back (more ways than one ^_~) and carries on.

Bio:
Her family has had a long history of werewolves in it, not everyone being born with ‘The Curse’, but enough to remain as family knowledge over hundreds of years. It seems to be carried by the females and mostly men are the ones to actually fall victim, but there have been many number of Elizabeth’s female ancestors who have contracted lycanthropy.

Her more immediate family practically glorify their family’s secrete heritage, although when Elizabeth’s parents found out their daughter was the one the curse was passed to, they wanted to hide her away from the modern world – fearing people may mistake her for a Gear and seek to hunt her down and kill her. Over the years, young Elizabeth became very, VERY bored with hiding herself away and became impatient – like a caged animal. She wanted to travel, see the world, revel in her lupine state and enjoy life, but her parents stopped her. She understood the reasoning for her parents decision, but Elizabeth knew in her heart she didn’t NEED their protection. Although, she certainly wanted to prove to her parents, to prove to the world! Reaching her early twenties now, her parents could do little to stop their daughter from venturing out alone into the world, and Elizabeth was certainly ignoring their pleas now. Off she went on her ambitious travels.

A wolf among sheep.

Main Goal:
Beyond wanting to ‘be free’, she has no set goals – too young an indecisive me thinks.

let me take a swing at this...

Name: Eldebrand Marquis
Age: 24
race: human
nationality: Country A
magic: Chronomancy/black tech
weapons: pistols

looks: A tall and well muscled man, his hair is dark black and unkempt. His eyes are a common brown, his skin is very tanned. He wears stylish clothing of an expensive nature for the most part, nice suits and dress shirts. He has an affection for wide brimmed hats. When outfitted for combat, he wears a tactical
ballistic vest and cargo pants of rough canvas. All in black, very to the point with no frills or identifying marks. On his wrist he wears an old coin with two holes in it through which a black string is run.

personality: preoccupied. He always seems to have his mind in another time or place. Wether he's sitting in a restaurant or dodging assassins, he never seems to be fully paying attention. He's a dreamer, and a bit of an optimist.

He always tries to see the brighter side of things. He tries to give people and gears the benefit of the doubt. He never bought in to all the anti gear propaganda, and realizes that all sentient life should be able to coexist.

Bio: He doesn't know his real family very well, he was orphaned at the age of 7 and left in the care of various people until he was fourteen. During that time he spent his days reading old literature and practicing martial arts. He found he needed various outlets for his energy otherwise he'd go stir crazy.

When he was old enough to get a job, he walked out of the orphanage and didn't look back. After a few years of odd jobs and destitution he found himself stowed away on an airship, he didn't know exactly why he'd done it, just that it seemed like an interesting thing to do. While on board he met an old man doing coin tricks in a lounge. He was fascinated by the illusion, so much so he risked exposure by talking to him.

The man was surprisingly obliging, and the two talked for hours about coin tricks and history, old books and stories of the road.

Then the old man did another trick, he flipped the coin into the air, and there it stayed, the halogen lamps glinting off it in an eerie glow. It was just stuck in mid air, Eldebrand waved his hand around it, checking for strings, he tried to pluck it from the air, it wouldn't budge, he was astonished.

The old man winked and said, "I'm in the market for a valet my young friend, and I'm sure your in the market for an excuse to be onboard"

That was the beginning of Eldebrands tutelage in chronomancy, the air shipped docked in the floating city and Eldebrand moved in with the old wizard in a comfortable apartment. He learned many things about sorcery and technology, joining the local police force when he turned 18.

He was a quick learner, and soon had gathered all he could from the old man, who's name was Seth Frederickson. He was comfortable, but growing bored.

On his 20th birthday, just an arbitrary date he came up with really, January 31st, he Waved goodbye to his mentor and the floating city, he needed to find his own purpose.

He took with him the tools of his trades, a set of semi automatic pistols and an old coin.

main goal: To enlighten the world. He doesn't know how, but he want's to bring acceptance and brotherhood to men and gears, as well as an appreciation of technology.


note: I just saw the note you made about no chronomancy magic, I must ask if I can still go ahead with this character, keep in mind that his abilities won't be drastic enough to travel through time for years or anything, at most he might be able to freeze in time a small area (a city block or so) and there are always ways to keep him in check.

I am not a god modder, I just like the imagery of a coin stopped in mid air, as well as some of the cool effects that could be done in a combat situation.

if its not cool, then I'll change it, and sorry for the rather thrown together appearance of my character sheet, I'm in a bit of a rush at the moment.

Kewly-o!

Name: Kima Ashgart
Age: 21
Race: Human
Nationality: Greek
Magic: Water, Chronomancy (explained on bio)
Weapon: Pair of four-bladed scythes (kinda like Axl´s, only they´ve got 4 blades [two up, two down] and move slower)
Looks: Take Axl, remove his cap, paint his hair white, then splash his clothes with paint. And shrink him a few inches.
Personality: Quite talkative, he doesn´t minds doing anything that, in his mind, is considered fun. Of course, he thinks nearly EVERYTHING that doesn´t hurts HIM is fun...
Bio: Kima was born in Greece, in the year 2160. He heard about the Gear Wars, but didn´t actively work with them, since his parents had fled to an unknown location (to the government; to him, it was simply called Lair). During one of his journeys through the Lair, he met a strange spirit that took over his body for a while. Once he finally regained control (after a really bizarre ritual that involved a rubber chicken, grease, and wine), he found out that the spirit had left some power on him; namely the ability to control time. However, he could only do that to himself; either speeding himself up or slowing HIS perception of time. After some time, he noticed a strange book that emanated mystical energies; this book, it seemed, allowed him to generate a small water shield.

In the first two tournaments, he got interested in Axl, specially as the man seemed to be from another time, and that he was looking for That Man, who, apparently, could move in time as well. He decided to join the following tournament after deciding that That Man would probably appear.

Another effect the spirit left, even though Kima has no idea about it, is that he doesn´t think anything is dangerous, sans proof. To him, beating someone up is just as fun as hearing a good joke.
Main Goal: Meet Axl, get rich, and see That Man (if he meets Axl; I´d say it´s just more likely for him to meet the guy that way.)

Sorry for lack of postage. First thing's first. Funka and Kima, I specifically said no chronomancy in my earlier posts. It's too powerful so I was going to reserve it for boss NPCs. I'm not rejecting you RPing, you just have to alter your character stats. (which is a shame because they are really good backstories). Also Funka, if you use blacktech then it's kind of assumed that you don't use magic (since they seem to be at odds in the storyline).

I'll be posting my stats tomorrow morning.

Nice character pic Yunni ^^

it seems to me that in order to have any chance of survival my character would need access to some magic, and I don't think thge ideas of black tech and Magic are mutually exclusive, its just that black tech is frowned upon by the majority of the world, which relies on magic. My character is trying to promote understanding of higher level technology, but this doesn't mean he seeks to thwart the usage of magic.

I'll switch my magic to Ki then, and the only reason I choose that is because it seems to be most tied with direct physical ability. My guy isn't going to be the type to throw fireballs around (obviously he dosen't need to!) But he will need to be one badass mofo is he doesn't want to get dead, which he doesn't!

So he's a gunfighter martial artist, ever seen a zen archer? Think about it that way, except with bullets!

the bio should hold up to this change, just replace "chronomancy" with "magic" and it'll make sense.

is this ok?

Gineko: Yes you may still have May's hammer, but try to make your bio, looks, etc. unique.
Funka: Alright. Ki is your magic. And since it's relative to your character's personality, you can use blacktech and ki magic.
