I guess I could pull out a different character, but I'm kind of attached to this guy now.  Darn.

[Twinwolf]

Can we please try to keep calm and not get salty while the character is still being made.

[PrivateNomad]

I'm not sure it's a matter of fluff. I think it's more a matter of balance.

Also, when are character sheets due?

When people are finished. My time is flexible.

Okay, so how would you do it?

By not completely negating your weaknesses with minmaxing? Seriously, your new passive pretty much states "i can have 20 spellpoints of spells that arent related to my character, but with better stuff on top of that".
I will be blunt here in saying that you are probably not going to get into the actual game anyways, no matter what the character. From my experiences with you previously I would rather have other people.

[TheBiggerFish]

Well fine then.  If you want to prejudice yourself against me from the start, I won't even bother putting the effort in.  Count me out.

At least probably.

Too late now.

Waitlisted Character, just in case.

Spoiler: Bringing Back the Fire! (click to show/hide)

Name: Dr. Annabelle W. Holbech
Age: 22
Description: I'm lazy, so... Picture! She's hot-headed at times, but when necessary, she will be a leader. Her voice sounds smooth, and mature, with her laugh being slightly higher pitched (in a good, natural way). She deals with stressful and traumatizing events with strength, but falls short in certain social interactions, such as talking to men she likes. Being a scientist, she deals with scientific things eith relative ease.
Backstory: Annabelle came from another dimension known as Albion, only occupied by a single floating city with a steampunk vibe to it. Dr. Holbech managed to perform dimension to dimension travel for the first time. She happened to crash her airship into the Northsdale 5's castle. Ever since then, she's been accustoming herself to the world. As to why or how she got to Camp Cinder, she was in France doing work for the UN, as a representative for Albion, at the time of the chaos started. She quickly fled, and is now helping the fight, holding on to some hope that her friends of Northsdale are still alive.

Yeah that's fine, but you're telling me basic rolls everytime you use it (^:. As in you do the math and I just roll the dice.

You better add more to that description, boy. A picture doesn't tell me what she sounds like, what her weaknesses and strengths are, her personality, etc.
Magnums are 1d6+[1/2 DEX] per magnum, with 1d4 fire damage.

[USEC_OFFICER]

PTW. I'll come up with a cool character concept... eventually.

Any suggestions on what kind of character to make? I'm leaning towards melee-bruiser/tank at the moment, but will gladly take any input that people might have.

Generally, something we currently do not have seems like a good idea. Elf's character seems like a good overall support, and I have a feeling Akroma's character might be a DPS.

That's my plan. Hence why I'm asking.

[Chevaleresse]

...Didn't the universe get blown up in the previous continuity or something? Tentatively reserving a slot, but yeah.

Also, technically this is RotMG5, but uh, we don't talk about 4.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Sorasa Hibiki/SORASA
Description: A half-Japanese boy, aged 16, whose mother was French. His features lean toward his European heritage, with somewhat pale skin and a head of dark brown hair, kept short except for the back, which he keeps in a ponytail. He is of slightly below average height, with a wiry build that's muscular without being bulky. The only thing that appears supernatural about him is his eyes, which are tinted a bright shade of violet; he usually waves this off as some sort of rare, but harmless, genetic condition. He prefers simple, versatile clothes, dressing in a white t-shirt and jeans, usually with a blue jacket if he can find one. Looking at him with the ability to perceive the supernatural would reveal something decidedly more interesting, however; it would appear that he had two souls, and that they shared a powerful magical aura.

Personality-wise, he's fairly easygoing and somewhat lazy, preferring sleep over getting anything productive done much of the time, though he does simultaneously have a certain thirst for novelty in his life. He's loyal to a fault, though, and won't hesitate to help someone in need. He tends to be somewhat naive and toward holding grudges, however, and isn't the best leader of people.
Backstory: Hibiki's life story up until all of this supernatural chaos business was fairly normal. His father was a traveling businessman who met a foreign woman and eventually this resulted in Hibiki, who lived a normal life until all hell broke loose.

The world has a self-defense mechanism, activated only in emergencies that threaten its very existence. It attempts to summon the spirits of heroes, past and future, to protect itself. However, perhaps due to the sudden grave injuries being dealt to it and its population, something went wrong. The spirit that was supposed to be called to protect France, rather than being summoned in its own body and possessing the armaments it was intended to, was shunted into the nearest appropriate container, shedding much of its power in the process. That container was Hibiki.

The boy made it out of the ruination alone thanks to this odd sort of possession, his parents having perished in the chaos, and drug himself to Camp Cinder. The rest of his story, well, it's yet to be told.
Stats: Are you good at this, bad at that? Well-rounded? Allocate 30 points. Average for a human is 3 each, but you guys aren't average farmers.
Health: 32
MP: 10
STR - 6
DEX - 8
AGIL - 6
INT - 5
WILL - 5

Abilities: Clearly there is something supernatural about you; what is it? Enhanced strength or agility? Pyromancy? Be creative. These are similar to spells in a way, and you have spellpoints equal to your INT to spend. One spell point may be put in an ability to be level one, or you could spend two points to have an ability be level 2, or three for level three. Essentially, a point may be used to give an ability a level. If you have 6 INT, you can have 6 lvl-1 abilities, or say 5 lvl-1 abilities and 1 lvl-2 ability. More on this in the stat section. In addition, everyone gets a free passive ability no matter their INT, whether it be a passive AoE effect or a stat boost or a proc'd effect. These abilities can be passive or casted.

Primal Rune: Strength: Draws a glowing arcane symbol on the target or himself. Boosts the target's next roll by WILL/2.
Primal Rune: Fire: Draws a glowing arcane symbol on the target or in midair. Deals 1d6+WILL fire damage, and an additional 1d6 in melee range.
-SORASA: 50% chance to ignite the target, dealing 2 damage per turn for 1dWILL turns.
Sword of Recompense: (Passive, level 1): Hibiki gains Counter stacks per turn, equal to his current DEX. When he reaches 20, he gains an automatic counterattack against the next opponent to hit him with a melee attack. He also starts each combat with one counterattack prepared. Multiple counterattacks can be built up in this manner, given they aren't used up.
-SORASA: Counterattacks are preemptive. DEX is considered 2 points higher for the purposes of gaining counterattacks.
Protection From Arrows (Passive, level 1): Hibiki gains a +3 bonus to dodging ranged attacks.
SORASA (Level 1): The spirit inhabiting Hibiki manifests itself, boosting all of Hibiki's abilities. (Bonus is equal to twice the skill level if there is no specific enhancement mentioned.) This has a GM-mandated cooldown, but currently can be done roughly once a week, and for about ten minutes at a time at most, without beginning to harm Hibiki.
Twinned Soul (Passive): Hibiki rolls twice, instead of once, to defend against all mental or anti-magical effects.

Inventory: His clothing and a backpack containing a change of clothes and a couple day's worth of food and water. A long, whittled stick with a survival knife notched into and tied onto the end for a weapon.

Sheet, or at least the first draft, is done. PMing the other details I wanted to mention to you now.


@USEC: Touhou character who has the power to manipulate boundaries. SHe's just as overpowered as she sounds, to which I quote:

...Among the abilities youkai are known to possess, this is one of the most dangerous, being comparable even to the power of gods... In any case, there is neither any sort of defense against nor weak point in the ability to manipulate boundaries.
