[Powder Miner]

Spoiler: Pokergirl RP (click to show/hide)

Name: Yua Nakashima
Magical Girl/Boy Name, if you have one: Ace of Clubs

Gender: Female
Sex: Female

Age: 16

Appearance: Yua stands at exactly five feet tall, with relatively light skin, and a rather thin frame. Her hair is charcoal black and falls down to her shoulders, straight and neatly groomed. Her eyes are brown and are quite sharp when one bothers to pay attention, as she takes in her surroundings and thinks. She wears semi-casual clothing, typically, rather than the simple t-shirt and jeans worn by some, wearing slacks or creased skirts instead, typically of dark colors. Her face is usually rather impassive -- a constant poker face.

Magical Appearance: Yua's physical attributes are here unchanged, although the differing attire makes her hair stand out far more. What she wears is quite classy, and a fair bit brighter than her usual attire: she wears a feminine suit of pearl color, with overlapping and numerous lines of gold and black running through the suit, as well as a black collar, golden wrists and a large onyx in the shape of a star over her chest opposite her heart. Her cuffs also have onyx cufflinks, a deep black, in the shape of poker's clubs. The onyx cufflinks and chest decoration shine far more brilliantly than one would expect in the light.

Description: Personality-wise, Yua is an extremely stoic girl. She is extremely skilled with a poker face, and uses it to constant effect -- it is nigh impossible to know what she is thinking or feeling at any time, and on the very rare moments when she is openly emotional, it's a strangled event she still tries to hide. As a consequence of this, Yua is something of a loner, poorly connecting with people and often distrusted by the other students, who her stony stoicism tends to freak out.

Background: Yua has been around gambling and cards her entire life, her father having moved to be something of a professional poker player when Yua was six after he and her mother divorced. They traveled the world has her father played cards and chance for a living, from Macau to Hong Kong to Monte Carlo to Vegas and the occasional time spent back in Japan. Yua learned to ply the cards much as her single father, and she would learn to mask her thoughts -- a skill she took to frighteningly well. It wasn't uncommon in those places less concerned with age to see an eleven-year-old girl at the table, impassive as she almost held her own. But soon after she she turned fifteen, her father hit a losing streak and their financial position decreased quite a bit; they were forced to move back to Japan, to Yumachi, a city with the laxest gambling laws in Japan, allowing casino-like establishments... but only under a certain size. It is here the poker-faced girl has set herself up, more at home in the small, family-run gambling houses than in her school life.

“What kind of person are you?”

"I'm a girl raised around poker tables and casinos all of my life, and it's given me talents. I can play poker with the best, I have developed a sharp mind, I know how to spot a tell or a clue both in a game and out, and I don't give any of my thoughts or feelings away if I don't want to. Sure... I'm not the most talented at giving my feelings away when I do want to... but that would just be a liability in the furst place, right...? Oh, well. I'm also someone with ambition. I want to get places in life, and I will use what I've been taught to do so."

“What reason will you have to make a pact?”

"Well, as empowering as magic may certainly be, that's not what I'm in it for. I see this as the ultimate gamble -- it may be a very serious risk, but sometimes those must be taken for a greater reward, and I am willing to take that gamble for what a wish could get me."

“What will your wish be when you get it?”

"I want a fortune. I want enough money to be sitting in a mansion out there and still have enough to last me for the rest of my life. I don't want to be caught in a losing streak or to be forced to go where misfortune would take me -- I want to have enough money to ride life's highs and lows, and to get to whatever place I want to be. I want to be extremely rich."

Magical Power: Telekinesis.

Magical Element: Paper.

Magical Weapon: Yua has a deck of cards that she uses in battle, often floating them separately and playing lightning-fast hands of poker to hopefully boost her attacks. The cards themselves are extremely difficult to mar or break, and are highly susceptible to both her telekinesis and a particular chance-based piece of magic she uses, and get sharper when force is applied, making them both a weapon and a workable set of playing cards.

Changes: You have none at the start.

Type of action, uses (per scene or per episode, if limited use), Overcharge (if any). Description.

Boost (Raise)
Free Action, 3/Scene, 1 Overcharge
When making a magical challenge, you can take 1 Overcharge on the magical attribute you’re using for the challenge to roll an additional die and add it to your result. This die will give you another die and another point of Overcharge if it rolls a 6 as usual, and if you use it for an attack it gives +2 to the attack’s damage as usual.

Recover (Fold)
2/Episode
While out of combat, a magical girl or boy can use this to regain 1d6+2 Resolve.

Hex (Blinds)
Minor Action
Place a Hex on a target within a range of 0-2. The target takes 1 point of damage at the start of each round until the end of the scene. Damage from Hexes is not considered an attack. You can place multiple Hexes on the same target, but you can only place one Hex in a round. On your turn, you may remove all or part of the Hexes you’ve placed on a target as a free action.

Relationship:

Spoiler: Luck of the Draw: (click to show/hide)

When Luck of the Draw is used, a 3d6 is rolled and the attack is altered according to the following table, with the card hand names simply being representative of what a roll might be fluffwise:
3-7, No Pair: The attack backfires, and Yua takes either the attack's damage roll or a Defense Overcharge point instead, specified when Luck of the Draw is declared. Roughly 16% chance.
8-10, One Pair: The attack is unchanged. No Overcharge is applied. Roughly 34% chance.
11-17, Two Pair: The attack gains 1d6 additional damage and deals the Bleeding condition. No Overcharge is applied. Roughly 49.5% chance.
18: If an 18 is rolled, apply 1 Attack Overcharge and then roll 2d6. If one or neither die is a six, it is simply a two pair. If two are sixes, it is a Royal Flush. If it is a Royal Flush, then the target is slain, with exceptions at the GM's discretion. Also, all hell breaks loose at the GM's discretion and imagination. Roughly .5 percent chance for an 18. Roughly .013 chance for a Royal Flush.

Current Overcharge: 1 Magic, 1 Support
First Advancement: +1 Attack (Magic)

Spoiler: Rin Yoshizaki. (click to show/hide)

Name: Rin Yoshizaki.(For once not in Japanese format)
Magical Girl/Boy Name, if you have one: Yoshizaki Rin .

Gender: Female.
Sex: Female.

Age: 16.

Appearance: Rin has long unkempt black hair and green eyes. Her face is round and her cheeks are quite thin. Her mouth is a bit long yet has thin lips. Her chin is short. Her somewhat long nose is slightly crooked. She has a thin build yet is slightly taller then normal. She often wears black clothing when not forced to use the school uniform and rarely wears dresses.

Magical Appearance: When Rin transforms her outfit changes to that of a dark purple short one peace dress with a thin black belt around the waist holding up two sheaths on each side for the two swords Rin has. Her hair also gains a ever so slight purple hue and becomes much less messy then it normally is.

Description: Rin is a bit distant to say the least she usually doesn't get too upset by death except if its one of the few people she actually cares about, though those people are few and far between. She tends to just stumble through life clinging onto the few things she holds dear to her and tries to help her few friends with whatever they need, though she never seems in a truly joyful mood and most of the time looks sad or upset about something. As she tends to hold disdain against those who dislike her she tends to steel from there desks occasionally, she also tries to use people who are influential from time to time, though it never really works.

Background:When Rin was young she was quite the opposite of how she is now. She use to be energetic, cheerful, careless, and optimistic, that changed when her family and herself got in a horrible train crash that left her father and mother dead and her older brother in a coma, ever since that day she has been how she is now. A part of her tries not to get attached to other people that much for a fear that the same fate her parents suffered could befall upon them and yet she does manage to get attached to a select few, if given a wish she would probably wish to be with the few she cares about in peace without fear of anything bad happening to them separated from the normal world with everything needed to live comfortably for eternity. She occasionally goes to the kendo club and watches the people spar there as it reminds her of her brother, who use to practice kendo in his spare time, and better times.

Magical Power: The Blackest Night: Darkness engulfs Rin and her surroundings plunging everything into blackness like pitch blinding all including Rin herself for a minute before light levels return to normal.

Magical Element: Darkness.

Magical Weapon: Two swords, a tachi and a wakizashi both of which have black blades that emit a dark blue aura when unsheathed, the blades are as cold as ice. The handles have a single rune each, both being the same. Occasionally, when the swords are being used, the runes glow blue for a few seconds before fading.

[piratejoe]

[spümpkin]

well i can see right off the bat you need to hook up your magical attributes with support defense or attack

Im pretty sure i got it right on that side of things...

you need to assign heart, fury, and magic to either attack, support, or defense, which determines which thing you use for which kind of action.

Sheet incoming.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Miyata Kaoru
Magical Boy Name: N/A

Gender: Heterosexual Male
Sex: Male

Age: 16

Appearance: Kaoru stands pretty tall for his age, with long, unkempt black hair (normally tied back, with some streaks of blond) and eyes that are somewhere between blue and grey. He likes to wear comfortable clothing; track pants and a t-shirt will often be seen on his persona. Additionally, he normally carries a He has a bit of a crooked nose, which looks like it has been broken a few too many times.

Magical Appearance: In his magical form, Kaoru appears to wear bands of studded leather around his midsection, with more straps looping around his shoulders. A few bright blue ribbons flow from the back of his collar. The leather bands are colored alternately black and not colored. However, the most distinct thing about his attire is the fact that his wrists bear metal shackles, attached to short lengths of chain. The chain is broken at about a foot away from it's respective shackle. The bands on the metal appear to show writing in some strange language, the individual runes of which seem to emanate power. His movement does not seem to be affected by such things.

Description: Kaoru is what some people would a comedian. He tries to cheer everybody up, and doesn't seem affected when things would usually get other people down. He just smiles weirdly, and tries to get over it. Most people say that his jokes aren't funny, but he doesn't care. He likes people, but, owing to his past and the fact that he now wields strange power, he hasn't really had much of a chance to make friends. Kaoru doesn't seem to particularly care about his grades, and doesn't really seem to have many qualifications for being in the classes he's in anyway, but he works hard enough to stay in them. He is not well known in any of the places he goes to on a frequent basis except as 'that guy who makes bad jokes.'

Background:

Kaoru did not grow up in a very nice family. His father was a (admittedly, very unprofessional) small-time criminal and his mother was a drug-addict. His dad, though criminal he was, turned out to be a sympathizing, kind individual, who somehow was addicted to the idea of shoplifting itself, and aspired one day to have a grand amount of money on his head (something like 20,000 in pounds, he often professed). His mother, rebelling against the stereotype ass she rebelled against anything, was a highly abusive parent, who often threw Kaoru out for no particular reason, only for his father to bring him in again, risking the wrath of Kaoru's mother (who had a real mean steel fist). This issue grew to the point that Karou's father got a divorce (something that Kaoru's mother was curiously opposed to) and attempted to take care of Karou himself. He managed this for a short while, and in service of this goal even managed to keep a job in construction (something he actually liked doing). However, his love for small time crime soon got one over on him, and he was caught trying to shoplift from a nearby electronics store.

Kaoru was presently sent to a foster home, where he spent most of his years before his father came out of prison and took him back. From then on it was mostly a back and forth from Kaoru being sent to a foster home and being brought back when his father came out of prison again. His education is understandably lackluster, but he manages well enough and has a good level of general knowledge and insight.

His many acquaintances at school don't know too much about him other from that he doesn't talk about his mother and that he's not too bad of a guy to hang around.

“What kind of person are you?”
Kaoru likes to think of himself as the kind of person that helps other people with problems and excel. The truth is, he really doesn't have the skill nor the qualifications to do so, but that sure as hell ain't gonna stop him from trying
“What reason will you have to make a pact?”
Kaoru made the pact so he could make others people's lives easier, faster. It was mostly for the benefit of his father, but he did not anticipate the many of the hardships that came with it. Including the fact that the people he wanted to help in the first place now want nothing to do with him.
“What will your wish be when you get it?”
Kaoru wants nothing more than for his father to be free of the addiction. He doesn't really care for his mother, having seen how she was. While this is liable to change, Kaoru always feels like his dad could have lived a far better life without his mother and his love for small-time crime.

Magical Power: Shackling - Kaoru can imprison nearby people/animals/objects, or simply prevent someone from escaping somewhere, typically with shackles, though he can use other things.

Magical Element: Imprisonment (with debuffs and cool stuff like that)

Magical Weapon: Metal-banded Quarterstaff.
