Yes, characters must be named colors or related to colors. Projeck didn't really specify that well.

Also, you use dust for magic; even glyph semblances ultimately use dust for their use. You don't just breath fire or shit or turn into cliche d&d sorcerers with it.

btw, too many characters not named after colors.

Agreed. It's even said- in one of the "World of Remnant" episodes, I think?- that people usually name their kids after colors.

Nora and Ren say 'Hi'.

Ren means lotus, Nora is probably related to the greek work for light. It doesn't have to be a color, just named after something related to a color. Name your character apple and you're good.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

....eeeehhh. Melodia's LAST name fits in with 'green', I think I'm safe on that front.

[TheBiggerFish]

No he did not.  Oh well, one color change and a mechanical whatever and then we're good.

[Adragis]

ah well

bootgirl will wait for next thread

[SOLDIER First]

oh noo

Spoiler: Sienna Blaze (click to show/hide)

Name: Sienna Blaze
Age: 18
Sex/Gender: Female
Race: Human

~This girl has rust-colored features, long and spiked red hair, a small red shirt with an orange dragon printed on it. Her eyes are an emerald green and she wears a silver armlet with a topaz embedded within it.~

[History Soon]

Semblance: Aura Detonation - Sienna's aura is volatile, just like her personality. She can use her semblance to interact with her aura to make it detonate in portions, propelling her blows, exploding dust, propelling herself, and damaging and knocking back melee attackers. When Sienna uses dust for explosions, it gains a considerable boost in power.

Weapon: Metallica Conflagrate - This weapon's primary form is that of a giant hammer strapped onto Sienna's back; its folding metal's color scheme features hues much like her clothes, and its head features complex pipes for dust to be channeled through. It can be transformed into a large rocket launcher that fires dust-loaded rockets that explode in a large area, or it can be transformed into a long-range flamethrower that diffuses dust into powder form, then igniting it as it jets out the barrel.

Stats: (To come, when the system comes around.)

I haven't started writing her backstory yet, so if anybody wants to connect backstories (or be family or something), let me know before I start on it tomorrow.

Reserved.

Spoiler: Totally not Chie, donut steel (click to show/hide)

Name: Melodia Viridi
Age: 17
Sex/Gender: Female
Race: Human
Description: She normally wears a green hoodie, with a light shirt underneath, and a short tan skirt with biker shorts underneath. Her hair is short, cut in a bob haircut and the colour of straw. Her eyes are a deep green. Melodia's build is quite light and athletic, with her legs being quite toned from years of using them to compliment her fighting style. Her light shoes have metal soles and tips to allow her to engage in combat with them and compliment her fighting style. She is on the lower end of five foot, being somewhere between 5'2'' and 5'3''.

Her general attitude to life is quite laidback, and her general behaviour conveys enthusiasm and hyperactivity. However, if she finds injustice near her, Melodia will try to resolve the conflict- and if it is not resolved, then so much for the unlucky fool who attempted to cross a trained Huntress who happens to be skilled with kicking people in the face.
History: PM.
Semblance: Vox: Melodia can manipulate sound. She can do anything with it from dampen sounds within a small area around herself, to blocking out someone's voice, but her most powerful offensive application is the ability to turn her shouts into deadly weapons of unrelenting force (you figure it out), being able to use her yells as basically forms of projectiles that pierce barriers that block material projectiles.
Weapon: Viridian Sonata:

• - Aria Form: In this form, Viridian Sonata resembles a green, metal yoyo, with musical notation marks around the rim on each side, with the string toughened with Dust to keep it from being cut or snapped; the weapon acts as a flail to hook around defenses. On the other end of the handle string, a small clamp acts as the hoop for Melodia to slip her fingers into, with a small switch upon it. When clicked, the head of Viridian Sonata immediately sprouts spikes, increasing it's deadliness. There is also a small slot for a Dust cartridge within the head; when activated, the head will inflict different effects on contact (fire Dust burns, lightning Dust shocks). Currently, Melodia has equipped Wind Dust into Viridian Sonata. The string range is equivalent to some of the shorter-ranged ranged weapons.
• - Sonata Form: In this form, the string used to swing Viridian Sonata is surrounded by inflexible metal plates, turning the weapon into an a small mace, costing her range for the benefit of stability. The switch now allows the head to spin around, turning the head into a makeshift rotary saw.

Stats: (To come, when the system comes around.)

Nearly complete.

Spoiler: Probably an expy, I don't know. (click to show/hide)

Name: Reynard Umber.
Age: The high end of 17.
Sex/Gender: I'm offended, Projeck. Male.
Race: Faunus.
Description: Reynard wears a beige coat over white uncerclothes. Leather belts and straps adorn the coat, which also splits into two tails in the back, ending just above Reynard's knees. Long, russet pants, baggy at the thighs, cover his legs. He wears contrastingly black boots and a sandy-colored bandana over his dark hair. Matching dark ears poke out from the top of his head and a fluffy tail protrudes from his waist, turning white at the tip. Though his height is definitely increased by his shoes, he stands almost 6'0".

A quiet sort, Reynard isn't much for conversation. He prefers listening, maybe. Nothing seems to bother him, either; he keeps the same almost-bored expression whether in heated combat or sharing a few quick words after training and looks the same while glad, upset, angry, or anything inbetween.
History: [WIP]
Semblance: Mirage: Reynard can create images of things, from large objects such as tiltjets to people to things as simple as a vase of flowers. Larger objects or sustained mirages take more out of him, however. Mirages aren't solid objects and one can pass through them as easily as air.
Weapon: Arid Sands, an enormous broadsword in its first form. Colored the tan of a desert, it sits almost five feet long, narrower in the middle than near the tip or the hilt. The guard on the Sands seems to curve slightly outward, towards the blade, and the pommel has a strange, intricate design on it. A small button sits on the center of the guard to switch forms. It doesn't seem to use Dust at all.
In its second form, the Sands becomes a blunderbuss, keeping its color. The gun becomes shorter in this form. It has a thinner barrel and a more elegant, curving shape of the stock, with the same design on the stock as the pommel does. Though it could certainly be modified so, the Sands is not able to fire Dust cartridges other than the Sand ones Reynard uses.

Stats: [TBD]

Spoiler: Violet (click to show/hide)

Name: Violet. She doesn't generally use her last name.
Age: 16
Sex/Gender: Female
Race: Human
Description: A girl with bright violet hair and eyes, with thin glasses. She generally wears comfortable clothing in dark colors, most often white t-shirts and black shorts and sneakers, with a white jacket if it's cold out, and gloves at all times. She's 5 feet even, with a thin and light build. She gives off the air of a librarian, despite the obvious youth.
History: PM.
Semblance: Time-stop: Violet carries on her person at all times a small pocket watch. Upon pressing a button on the top, she stops time for a short period, during which only she, and any person or object she is touching, can move. She can only use it a short while before tiring and having to stop, but she can push for more time, with drawbacks.
Weapon: Clotho (as suggested by Elf): When her weapon is in it's primary form, Violet does not appear to have any weapons at all. In reality, she uses several extremely long razor wires attached to her gloves, which she can control through subtle gestures. By using her aura, she can make the wire take the shape of dual knives, or even pistols with the dust bullets already inside; this is because of the tech used to make the weapon, explained in backstory.
Stats: (To come, when the system comes around.)

I'm doing the Lady in the Lake character. Let's do this.

Spoiler: Fontanne Nimue (click to show/hide)

Name: Fontanne Nimue
Age: 17
Sex/Gender: Female
Race: Human
Description: Fontanne stands at the height of 5'9", with a lithe build that is best described as a swimmer's build: lean but muscled. Her skin is white albeit a little dusky from the sunlight. Her eyes are a deep verdant green color, and her hair is a vivid blue, curling down to her shoulders, but often only mildly bothered with.

Fontanne tends to wear clothes if bright blue or bright green: Her casual clothing is a turquoise skirt and similarly aqua short-sleeved shirt with a darker blue pair of leggings, and her combat uniform is a one-piece set of clothing, a deep blue jumpsuit but with the occasional armor plate strewn throughout. No matter what she is wearing, a set of blue and green ribbons interwoven adorn her shoulders. Her aura's, naturally, an ocean blue color.

History: PMed, I guess, like all the cool kids.

Semblance: Submerse: Fontanne's Semblance ensures that A. She can breathe underwater and B. That when submerged in water, her physical strength, speed, and reflexes are greatly increased, making her a complete terror to fight underwater. This also happens to a lesser extent if she is drenched and not underwater, by things like a rainstorm or a bucket of water.

Weapon: Fontanne has two weapons: Her sword, Calabrum, is a particularly ancient two-handed sword, which, aside from being an exceptionally large sword, was long ago built to respond to Aura: When Aura is channeled through the sword, it glows brightly and becomes somewhat sharper, but it is completely unable to interact with dust.

Her second weapon, Vivianne, is a much more mundane weapon created by Fontanne herself to counter her ranged weakness. It is a small rifle that functions underwater at the expense of some accuracy on land.

(I basically sacrificed the third form there to give Calabrum its ability)

Stats: (To come, when the system comes around.)

Spoiler: Sheet! (click to show/hide)

Name:Drake Ilnh (Insert Last Name Here, which I actually, for some reason, liked.)
Age: 16.5
Sex/Gender: Male
Race: Faunus (Lizard)
Description: Drake stands about 6'2", and is somewhat muscular.  However, any details of his appearance are kind of subsumed by the scales.  Drake is covered in about square-inch-wide scales that seem reminiscent of lizards, or if you're a fantasy buff, dragons.  They are a sort of copper color.
His eyes are also lizardlike, and purple for some reason.

He wears normal clothes.

History: There isn't much to say.  He was always a loner, even in the city he grew up in, because of the bit where even for his own kind he's rare and sticks out, and as such he preferred fantasy to reality, taking an unsurprising liking to sorcerers for their various similarities.

Semblance: Dragonshape: Drake takes on some aspects of a dragon of D&D.  There are three ways this could go, depending on how deep he goes into it, arranged least depth to most depth.
1):Dragonbreath-Drake can make an elemental breath attack, as if, you guessed it, he was one of the various dragon bloodlines.  His scales shift color to display what type he's drawing on.  This is more of an instant cast thing as opposed to any other form of his Semblance.
2):Dragonshift-Drake, in addition to Dragonbreath, grows claws and wings.  His scales also become more resistant to attacks.  This requires more concentration to maintain but is not extraordinarily stressful.  He could maintain this for most of a combat if he's not physically taxing himself overmuch.
3):Form of the Dragon:Drake quite literally becomes a dragon.  This is severely taxing, but he is much, much stronger in this form than any other.  He has a much stronger Dragonbreath in this form, has more raw strength, and he can fly much better and use the force of his wings to buffet enemies away.  He can also use a bite attack.
However, dragons are big, so it really doesn't work well indoors, and he can only maintain this for short periods of time, perhaps a minute or two.  He can push himself, but he'll be exhausted afterwards.
Weapon: Sorcerer's Focus(Ranged, but also a staff for whacking people or things with):Drake's mainstay, this is a staff with slots for Dust crystals in.  He can shoot balls of the crystal energies, or lay down a cone of said.
Spellblade(Melee):Drake's other weapon, this is similar to Sorcerer's Focus in that it has slots for Dust crystals but instead imbues the blade with their effects.  It's a one-handed sword.
Dragonclaws(Mixed):This form of Drake's weapon only comes out in Dragonshift or higher, where it channels the power of his Semblance to either launch less AoE ranged attacks or slice and dice people more effectively.

Stats: (To come, when the system comes around.)

Yes, this is unabashedly an expy of D&D's Sorcerer.
Sorcerer is cool. 
Also, if you had scales, wouldn't you fantasize about being a dragon instead of a lizard or snake?

The above listed sheets are what have been so far cleared into the game. I'll work some things out with some people on this list, to get your characters looking dandy. With color names, among other things.

The list is subject to change, and so are your characters. The only reason some of you are not on this list is because I'm contemplating sending some other to PN to balance the experience of RPers that we have.

This is not a final list.

[TheBiggerFish]

@Projeck: Name's been changed.

[PrivateNomad]

Writing my character's history in an hour, one last chance to link history.

[Bluexdog]

Sooooo im on the waitlist

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Sooooo im on the waitlist

No, you're in PN's game.

[Bluexdog]

Did they make the link yet?

[BlitzDungeoneer]

It's not even up yet, actually.
I think, at least.

[Powder Miner]

Fontanne-->Fountain/Spring-->Blue 'cause water was my thought process
I can change it if that's not color enough?

[PrivateNomad]

Fontanne-->Fountain/Spring-->Blue 'cause water was my thought process
I can change it if that's not color enough?

Seems fine to me.

So, I'll make a new thread and we will settle on who's going to be in it once Projeck gives me a complete roster.
So if you haven't done so yet, make your characters.

Spoiler: Ladies and Gentlemen, my character (click to show/hide)

Name: Russell Raleigh
Age: 17
Sex/Gender: Male
Race: Human
Description: Russell is of average height. Not particularly tall, but not exactly short. He's a redhead, and when I say that, I mean his hair is very, very red, and not very tidy, all things considered. It's a bit all-over-the-place, a little bit like what hair looks like after waking up, but also more controlled, somehow. His eyes are brownish. He does have some muscles, though, even if they're not exactly easy to see under the clothes he usually wears.

Clothes-wise, as with all people, it varies, but Russell generally tends towards longcoats or trenchcoats of some description, in part because hiding his weapons is much easier with something like that on. Beyond that, his attire varies quite a bit. One day he might be wearing a hat. On another, he might not. Who knows, right?

History: Russell has... led a pretty normal life, all things considered. No traumatising events, nothing particularly life-changing, besides the bit where his family pushed him to go into hunting, but even then, he probably would've done it all the same. Really, he's fairly well-adjusted, all things considered, beyond a few incidents that led those around him to discover his pragmatic streak in combat.

Semblance: Combat Clairvoyance: Russell can see the future.
Well, not really, not farther than a few seconds, at least. What he can do with this, however, is predict an opponent's attack and react appropriately, sometimes before said opponent even knows they were going to perform such a move. Ambushes and such can also be predicted, but, as with combat, only by a few seconds.
Weapon: Much like several other people, apparently, Russell wields two weapons.
Quicksilver: A pistol with an, admittedly, slightly ridiculously long barrel(for that extra range), this weapon looks like its coated in, well, silver. It is also very much a dust-infused weapon, with any normal bullets shot out of it being coated in a form of poisonous dust. Dust-infused rounds are treated as normal.

Argent Bolt: A collapsible lance which, much like the Quicksilver, seems entirely coated in silver. It can switch between the forms of a full-length lance, with all the reach that implies, and a much shorter, much less useful, but also far more easily concealable, blade-on-a-stick form. The lance itself is quite light, so much so that one can hold it comfortably in one hand, but also fairly durable. It is also infused with lightning dust.

Stats: Who knows?

This took way too long, but hey. It's here now.
