That would result in a larger input from crowds most definitely.

[SOLDIER First]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: .....Logan. That's it.
Gender: Female.
Age: How long has it been? _{Twenty and two when it started...} ..One hundred and seven-ten.
Essence Organ: Humanity... It's not so much an essence organ as just essence. It's always there, even faintly, somewhere around her chest.

Appearance: A fairly tall woman with golden hair, wrapped into a bun, and eyes the color of a clear sky. She wears the armor of a knight and a curious, masked helmet adorned with a red plume.

Personality: She talks little. What words are said are, however, polite and to-the-point. Logan prefers to allow her actions in battle speak for her.

Backstory:

Long ago, there were others she knew. A lover. A child. Their child. They had no worries, no woes, only happiness and companionship.
Then it appeared, behind her right-side shoulder. What they had heard, but never truly knew, of: The Darksign.
Life ended. Her beloved pushed her away, afraid, took their child and left her alone in an empty cottage with nothing but a spluttering candle and a question; Why?
That was her question. It was her question for days. Weeks. Months. Until her body wasted away, until her memories became meaningless and she could no longer mourn a lover she did not remember.
But as the years slowly passed, there was one thing she never forgot... Drangleic. Weeks after the Darksign appeared she visited an old, old woman who told her the story that never left her mind, the fate of the Undead...
After she has forgotten everything, forgotten herself... she will stand before the gates of a land called Drangleic, without really knowing why.....

Abilities:
Defend: Logan raises her shield against attack. Blocks 75% damage from physical attacks and 30% of magic or elemental damage, for one turn. Overrides the Drake Shield's innate ability for that turn.

Dodge: Logan sidesteps, ducks, or simply rolls away from an attack. Negates one attack targeting Logan and allows her to perform Slash Combo immediately after, albiet with a penalty to damage.

Flask of Estus: Logan drinks from a small, enchanted flask full of glowing liquid. Restores a small, fixed amount of health, thrice per Mission.
[Level 2] Restores more health.

Parry: Logan deflects an attack with her shield and then ripostes the enemy, dealing more damage than a regular attack. Only works against moderately-sized enemies, and only against their weapon attacks.
[Level 2] Works against larger enemies.

Slash Combo: Two quick strikes with her Drake Sword, dealing a moderate amount of damage.

Zielon Wallet: $21,500. Takes the form of a leather coinpurse.

Equipment:
Drake Shield: A black shield adorned with twin drakes, raising their wings at a pillar on the spine of the shield. Blocks one attack targeting Logan that occurs before her turn in the initiative order.

Drake Sword: A large sword with a blade of onyx. Used for surprisingly quick strikes and necessary for the Slash Combo ability.

Worn Greatsword: An enormous sword, clearly meant for someone larger than Logan, with a chipped blade. Can be used for a massive overhead strike that does a lot of damage and stuns the target for one turn.

Name: Tanky Mctankerson
Gender: Tank
Age: Tank
Essence Organ: Fist sized sphere directly behind Tankys gun

Appearance:

Tanky is about the size of a large dog and appears green to allies, blue to neutrals, and red to enemies

Personality: Tank

Backstory: Tanky was a tank. Tanky is a tank. Tanky has always been, and always will be, a tank. Tankys purpose is to shoot at things, because Tanky is a tank. When Tanky was contacted and told to fight things, Tanky could not think of anything but to accept. For Tanky is a tank. Tank.

Abilities:
1. Shot(active)[1]: Fires a small spherical white projectile. This projectile creates a damage area* with a diameter of 1 ft.

2. Grenade(active)[1]: Fires a grenade, this has a time limit that starts after it hits an object, and has a damage area with a radius of 1 and 1/2 ft that does much more damage than the shot.

3. Air strike(active)[1]: Fires a flare, this has a time limit similar to the grenade, afterwards 3 projectiles fall from the sky in an area around the flare with a damage area equal to the shot and doing twice the damage

4. Armor(passive)[1]: Tanky takes less damage from attacks

5. Battlefield(passive)[1]: battles involving Tanky will be enclosed in a 9x9 meter square with 2 meter high walls that deflect any attacks hitting them and last until the battle ends, these barriers center around Tanky. Objects can pass through the barrier freely so long as they are not attacks.

Equipment:

Grappling hook: It's a grappling hook, made to be used by a tank, that's about it.

EMP: Disables all electronics within 3 ft of the target area, has three uses.


*Damage areas are different from explosions, in that they are simply an area that causes everything in direct contact with it to be harmed, rather then kinetic energy and heat and such rapidly expanding. Tanky will probably have exploding attacks by the end of this.

@SB: As I mentioned before, I'd rather not have Abilities like Defend be able to totally nullify a certain kind of damage. Resist, yes, but not completely nullify. Same with Dodge, I'd rather it be a bonus to dodging rather than a having a 100% rate. Remember that these are Level 1 Starting abilities, and will have a long time to grow and develop. Am I correct in reading that the Slash Combo happens automatically after a Dodge, or does it just activate the next turn? Also, does the Drake Shield's effect happen every turn? That would be too strong. Accepted.

@Failbird: Unconventional, but I like it after reading it. Air Strike seems objectively better than Grenade, so why use Grenade? I'm assuming Armor means Tank Armor, right? I'm alright with Tanky having Tank armor as long as it also has Tank agility. Battlefield doesn't work, in a lot of cases the fight would be way too big to contain to that small area. EMP appears to be missing a proper radius description, and I'd like to have either some sort of cool-down or a limited amount of uses per Mission. Accepted.

Both of these characters can instantly appear in the On Ship thread when it is up. Like everyone else, I'd like their stuff to be adjusted before going on their first Mission.

[Greatness942]

Not sure I'm done yet, to be honest. I'm still trying to figure out what I should replace my Spellbook with, if I should at all. Maybe a Royal Spear,  but Twi's not a Speary person. Perhaps something to call her friends in as Companions, or can Companions count as Equipment?

[SOLDIER First]

-No problem, I'll change them.
-It does happen the same turn, yeah.
-Would it work better if the effect activated only on turns when she isn't attacking (excluding Dodge)?

The thing with air strike is that you can dodge the projectiles that it calls down, whereas grenade just explodes straight off when the timer ends and does damage to everything within range. Also I could have sworn that I added the radius for EMP, I'll definitely be fixing that. Also I guess I didn't make it clear, but battlefield only deflects attacks, it doesn't stop people from entering and exiting that range. Also damage, Grenade does around three times the damage of an individual air strike projectile, so if even one of them gets dodged then you took significantly less damage. I was contemplating having Tankys armor just be that rather than taking less damage from attacks, Tanky can simply take more damage before dying, and then having its movement be another upgradeable ability.

Now that I'm looking at it, I missed quite a few things on Tankys sheet, I guess that's why I shouldn't do this while tired

@Greatness: Companions are not equipment, and they count in another category since gaining Companions is possible through certain means in this game, such as Elf's characters abilities or spending Tokens. I would be okay with a piece of equipment that could summon a companion, with some sort of limit imposed.

@SB: So the shield activates when she isn't attacking? I wouldn't want to be a nullify as I said, but it reduces physical damage by a certain percentage or gives the enemy a malus to physical attack rolls, that would be fine.

@Failbird: So whenever a battle with Tanky starts, it just spawns in the Battlefield? And attacks from outside the Battlefield can not pierce it? What if something is so large it can't fit inside the battlefield?

[SOLDIER First]

75% resist?

[TCM]

75% resist?

Sure, yeah. Did you also put that it's 50% resist to Magical and Elemental Damage? If that's the case, I'd bump it down to 30%, but you can raise that via leveling up abilities. Also, you get 2 Equipment to start out with.

[Greatness942]

Alright then. Would an object that summons someone permanently, but only goes one use and only summons one person work? Because I have an idea, and I don't know if it's allowed.

Potentially.

I know, but I asked you about having two swords and the shield and you said it was okay. The Drake Sword isn't really an Ability equipment in that sense, because the ability uses the sword, that's not specifically the sword's ability.

I can see where your concern comes in, but I'm more concerned about the size of attacks that you're implying. However, if you really think it will be that much of an issue then I'll try to think of a different ability
