[Nirur Torir]

Welcome to the world of Mystica. Every century, divine beasts are set to guard the people from the annihilatory evils of The Shadow. A master summoner may gate a single one of the appointed divine beasts to the realm as the culmination of years or decades of effort.

Unfortunately for Mystica, this is The Century Of The Cat.

Please describe yourselves if you are interested in leaving your home plane for Mystica.

Name:
Skills: (Pick 1 primary and 2 secondary skills, abilities, or traits. These start fairly powerful, such as reviving a dead mortal under battlefield conditions, and may grow stronger over time. With enough effort, you may gain weaker skills later.)
Description: (Physical and mental. You will be a [particularly sturdy] flesh-and-blood feline, but may have special attributes, like wings made of fire. These will serve limited purpose unless you spend a skill point on one. Please remain mostly feline.
Mentally, consider that you're a fairly powerful spirit cat from another dimension.)
Sacrifice used to summon you: (Not technically needed, but .. you're a cat.)

You're being summoned. The summoners have some idea of who they're getting, and I'll be choosing sheets accordingly. Expect 4-5 people to get in. Try to get sheets up within 48 hours.

[Dustan Hache]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Funnyface (blame the human who summoned him. His real name is Abram)

Skills: righteous fury(primary): channels his strength into a much larger, more dangerous aura form capable of taking grievous amounts of harm before dissipating. This ability can be used twice per a day, and leaves his body vulnerable as he focuses on controlling his aura.
Paralyzing glare(secondary): causes the muscles of anyone he makes eye contact with to freeze up. The effect ends after breaking eye contact by any means, but when you can't blink because your muscles are locked..
Healing and grooming(secondary): licks the wounds of the target, healing them with minimal scarring and clensing poisons from them. It still feels like being rubbed with sandpaper.

Description: a rather pudgy white cat with gray patches of fur. His nose is a mix of gray and pink, his eyes are blue-gray.
They are somewhat lazy, but value law and religion highly. They prefer to protect others from harm rather than fight on the frontlines.

Sacrifice used to summon you: a large fish of some sort. Probably one of the rarer kinds as well.

[~Neri]

Spoiler: Honk: (click to show/hide)

Name: Honk.

Skills:
Carnival: Honk can.. Uplift a target mortal to their true potential while slaving the target to their will. A homicidal, regenerating, fear consuming, teleporting Clown. The more Clowns in one area, the larger the Carnival gets. The larger the Carnival gets, the more Clown Paraphenilia and Carnival related structures begin falling out of the aether into reality. The more Clown Paraphenillia and Carnival Related Structures in a local area, the stronger, quicker to heal, and more violent the Clowns get. If they wanted an army, they're getting an army. Just.. Not the kind they wanted.

Blink: Honk can.. Step out of space. And promptly step right back in at a different target location within the vicinity.

Shadowstep: Honk can.. Slip into the shadows. And then slip right back out of the shadows elsewhere. Said shadows include directly behind a person if they have a shadow.

Description: A small, purple cat. They seem forever amused with pretty much anything. Unless it's totally quiet or still. Then they appear very. Very bored. The honking starts when Honk gets bored.

Sacrifice used to summon you: A horn. It might have been an elephant horn. Or it might not have been.

[Nirur Torir]

Dustan Hache: Paralyzing glare is good, but I'm not really sure your other skills are strong enough.

Kevak: Blink and Shadowstep are pretty similar. You're obviously powerful enough that blink isn't a silly little "randomly teleport within 30 meters."
After creative re-interpretation, I shall assume the horn used to summon Honk is a horn that "[hasn't] been." An excellent choice, no doubt requiring a fascinating quest to acquire.

you said to quote unquote "guard the people." You never said how many people there were, how good they were at fighting, or what exact hardships they were likely to face.

[~Neri]

Blink is more of a close range teleport. Shadowstep is more of a longrange fast travel option.

[NRDL]

Spoiler: Knix (click to show/hide)

Name: Knix

Skills:
Primary: Roar - a feline vocalisation powerful enough to send a human sized target flying a fair distance.

Secondary: Tough fur - More like a honey badger's coat than a cat's, Knix's chainlink like mess of hair does allow for some protection.

Secondary: Intimidate - Bonus to diplomacy, the rough kind.

Description: Physically, a very robust tomcat, with splotches of red and orange on a black coat.  In his dimension, the only thing Knix cared about was pride, in being the strongest, toughest and most vicious.  He's actually quite jovial to people who get along with him, but his hair trigger temper does put a damper on a lot of his nicer qualities.

Sacrifice used to summon you: A bullfrog.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Marquis

Skills:
Primary: Red wave - Marquis release a wave of red energy that harms all nearby enemies and ignore allies.

Secondary: Sharp Claws - Marquis claws are covered with a few centimeters long red energy sharp enough to cut most metals. 

Secondary: Edge Shield - Invisible force that blocks attacks that are directed to behind Marquis, this barrier doesn't protect Marquis himself or blocks attacks that come from behind him.

Description: Marquis looks like a normal black cat except from the red eyes.

Marquis is obsessed with protection and fear, as is your enemies are scared of you they will let your people safe, for that reason if he has a victory assured he will proceed to fight in the most brutal way possible but if his victory is in doubt he will fight in the most efficient way he can think.
He is also very rude and dislikes spending time with others unless necessary.

Sacrifice used to summon you: A map of Mystica.

[Person]

I'm interested in this. I might be in too many games though, and I'm not exactly great on the rp front. (Funny how the first truly proper attempt at rp I'll be doing on these forums is as a cat. Truly we live in interesting times.) Anyway this is probably too strong, but one of the listed abilities you have as an example is "Resurrect the dead", so I've gone a bit overboard rather than being conservative.

Edit: Good to hear it isn't too strong. Have made a couple small changes in personality section, mostly grammar fixes really. In a way, that section was inspired by the personality pages of dwarves we like so much. Thought I'd add that in case it helps anyone with their own.

You know, I wasn't sure what sort of character I was making and when I wasn't looking it all quickly evolved into a sort of paladin like character as I adding more things. At least that sort of fits the setting? Also not entirely sure whether he'll be able to use powers at night time, given the element I've picked. It'd probably be stronger during the day (if only mildly) but I can only assume we have internal power as well.

Spoiler: Archimedes (click to show/hide)

Name: Archimedes

Skills:

Primary: Solar Flare - Archimedes builds up a charge of light energy, and fires a ray of plasma at his foe(s). The energy takes a certain amount of time to build, making immediate offense difficult. However, the charge can be released early for lesser affect. A sufficiently large charge can also be released much like a super nova all around Archimedes for massive damage. However, doing so consumes a large amount of energy, and as such is generally a last resort.

Secondary: Shielding Aura - Archimedes condenses a barrier of light around the target(s), protecting them from physical or magical harm somewhat. The aura also burns enemies that touch it, and keeps their surroundings perfectly lit.

Secondary: Detect Evil - When others mean harm to him or his allies, Archimedes can tell. This form of detection isn't perfect, and it works best against creatures highly aligned with darkness or evil. Direct harm is the most obvious trigger, but duplicitous activities can trigger it as well. It acts as a low level "danger sense" in some respects for this reason.

Description: For a cat, Archimedes is relatively lightweight, being more reliant on speed than raw strength. He has a relatively bland tan coat with brown markings on his feet.  Archimedes constantly radiates a small (generally insignificant) amount of light, particularly through his eyes, which glow golden. This light increases during combat and other stressful situations, though still generally minor.

His family was highly traditional, and they instilled the idea that it is an honor to do one's duty into him. He is generally calm and collected in manner, and begrudgingly follows orders. Yes, even the stupid ones. Archimedes likes his rest, and is most alert during the day, especially at noon time. He is mostly introverted, and because of this prefers the company of similar individuals.

Sacrifice used to summon you: A highly valuable and antiquated sundial. Small, but still highly precise.

[HugeNerdAndProudOfIt]

Name: tick

Skills: Travel back in time 1 minute every day, slow down time in my immediate area for 1 minute every hour, react unnaturally fast.

Description: a small kitten with Golden fur. He is very focused, but what his focus is may change every hour or so, he always tells the truth,and fears the misuse of time manipulation powers.

Sacrifice used to summon you: a golden pocket watch.

[Nirur Torir]

Anyway this is probably too strong

No, that's about right.

[star2wars3]

Are there still spots available?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Catana

Abilities: Dual Wielding Katana
Skating (especially ice skating)
Summoning Katanas anywhere within a 1km radius within line of sight.
Description: Catana is a buff looking cat that stands on its hind legs like a human and wears cool shades (purely decorational). Not only one of the coolest cats around but also a total badass.

Mentally Catana is distrustful of everything and acts tough to cope.


Sacrifice: The burnt offering of 100 dire rats, cool shades, and 2 Katanas.

[Person]

First post seems to indicate it not being first come first served. They'll be picking 4 to 5. So yes, there are potentially spots if they like a newer sheet better than someone else's.

Also just a quick question, can we speak the language of the people we're guarding? Is it a telepathy sort of deal? Are we all weird sailor moon-esque cats in a way that literally open and close our mouths to speak despite probably not having the right vocal cords? Are we running on basically just body language and communicating within the cat species? (I'm getting way too existential here.)

[FallacyofUrist]

Spoiler: That Bloody Cat (click to show/hide)

Name: That Bloody Cat
Skills:
Primary: Murderization: That Bloody Cat specializes in brutal, bloody, slaying of foes. Evisceration, decapitation, dismemberment, mauling... despite being a housecat, That Bloody Cat has the physical capabilities to fight... in a nasty way. As seen above. Size is no obstacle(That Bloody Cat's small size isn't stopping it, and neither is the large size of its foes).
Secondary: Intimidation: Anybody who sees what That Bloody Cat is capable of is going to be vulnerable: a simple hiss from That Bloody Cat will send them running.
Secondary: Transcendance: That Bloody Cat's ultimate technique, releasing the full power of its body, tripling its physical capabilities for one minute. Can only be used once per day, unfortunately.

Description: A rather ordinary looking housecat. With murder on its mind.

Sacrifice: A bit of catnip... with human blood on it.

((HAHAHAH MURDER ALL THE THINGS HAHA- catnip?))
