Code Geass: Black Knights [OoC/PG-13/Barely Started/Accepting]

[Thranduil]

Character Name: Arcturus
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Appearance: Arcturus has a broad build a d a well muscled/toned body, although you would never tell thanks to the brown sheet he always wears. No one knows what he looks like, wether he is bald or has a full head of hair thanks to his cloak. All you can see is his mouth, and that is only on occasion. He has a jagged slash across his upper and lower lip going down towards his left side.
Personality: Arturus appears to have no personality. Thanks to his sheet that he wears, and his monotone voice, you can never tell what he is feeling. In spite of this he is in fact quite clever and can quickly respond to a quote or remark that insults him with one that is ten times more jarring and has a bigger psychological impact on the person.
Biography: Arcturus just came to be. From what he was told by the people who razed him he simply appeared one day. As he grew he discovered that he could do things, it started when he was eight years old. He was being picked on by a few kids, he had always been taught that violence never solves problems but he just wanted to hurt them so badly. He told the kids who were attacking them to stop. To his suprize they did, they stopped talking, eating, sleeping, they just stopped moving. It was as though he had killed them inside their minds. The kids ended up dying of dehydration three days later. When every one found out that he caused what happened to the kids everyone, including his adopted parents shunned him. In shunning him, it gave Arcturus a perfect reason to finally leave. Taking nothing with him except an old worn brown sheet he fled never to be heard from again. While living in the wilderness he learned stealth and became an expert marksman. In his wanderings he inadvertently stumbled into one of the heavily populated cities ruled by the Brittanian Empire, where, being mistaken for a homeless vagrant, he was immediately conscripted into the army. Although he was conscripted and is now a member of the army, he never removed his old worn brown sheet, and any attempt to do so has lead to some broken bones in the assaulter.
Combat Ability: Although Arcturus has some skill with hand to hand combat, and can pilot a Knightmare well enough, he feels most at home behind a good bow, of which he wields with his Knightmare, always maintaining a solid distance until he is ready for the finishing blow.
Knightmare: He has a generic Knightmare, with a couple of small modifications to allow for a bow that fires energy shots.
Geass: "The Blind Mind" A geass that manipulates the perception of a persons body to their mind. The ability can do one of two things, depending on the subconscious of the person being effected. It can either send the person to a state of total bliss leaving them helpless to anything that might occur. Or it can create an imagined threat that will cause them true physical harm untill they die. How Arcturus got this ability is not known, he was told that he was born with it. (Can be possible if person has strong enough will.)
Miscellaneous: Arcturus will only eat rabbit. If he does not get rabbit he will simply not eat. The longest he has gone without foot was a whole month.

[/spoiler]I would personally like details of his background and where he got his Geass, if you want it to be a plot point later on PM the details instead of posting it in here. Your personality section is also too short, I understand that he is a rather flat, emotionless character, but there are bound to be something he would enjoy or do, you should have details of his morality and scruples, his typical day-to-day behavior as well as how he responds to dangerous situations.

 

His Geass needs some sort of limits. All Geass have limits, perhaps it also sends him into a daze but with great enough emotion or willpower, one can break out of it.

 

EDIT: Your character is awfully similar to Ketodama's character and his app is of better quality and his character's usefulness and part in the RP outclasses yours. I suppose it could work to continue with this app, but perhaps you could consider a different kind of character?

 

[spoiler=Hide]

 

So what else do I need to edit?

[/spoiler]

@RogueZero: It's fine now, nothing I can think of at the moment. Accepted.

So what else do I need to edit?

EDIT: I added a new character that was close to Kongming that Dante would have somewhat become familiar with and you could possibly mention her in your app?

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Character Name: X.Y. (Short for Experiment Y)

 

Age: 19

 

Gender: Male

 

[spoiler=Appearance:]  X.Y. certainly appears human enough.  He stands somewhat tall for his age, and is of an athletic build akin to what one would see on a runner or martial artist.  His skin is what could be described as unhealthily pale, clearly from a lack of exposure to sunlight.  He has a face which could be described as sharp.  A rather narrow chin and gaunt cheeks combined with somewhat high cheek bones give him that appearance.  He has no hair anywhere on his body, with the exceptions being his eyebrows and the top of his head.  What hair he has, eyebrows included, is a shiny dark silver in coloration and that upon his head hangs down his back.  At least it would if he didn't keep it held into a tight braid essentially at all times.  Most startling are his eyes, which lack pupils and sclera from a visible perspective.  Instead, they are both solid orbs of bright orange.   As far as clothing is concerned, he more or less always wears a tight-fitting flight suit of crimson and gold accompanied by a meta band to which are connected a set of around ear headphones.  The metal band normally sits over his eyes as a sort of visor.[/spoiler]

 

Personality:  X.Y. almost seems inhuman in the way he goes about doing things.  Everything he does is done either because he thinks it is logical for him to do so, or because he has been ordered to do so.  It's almost as if he has no will of his own, or if he does he has no idea what to do with it.  X.Y. has little familiarity with human emotions, being treated more like an object than a person for his whole life, and as such tends to make comments which can be quite brutal to others.  His voice rarely changes from its dull, emotionless tone and thus he comes across as being, well, mechanical.  In combat he is completely unfeeling, but all the same shows every foe he meets the same mercy.  If one loses to him, their death is always quick.

 

[spoiler=Biography:]  When K.K. first began creating followers with goals similar to her own with Geass there were some...complications when they discovered they were being manipulated.  To help prevent further difficulties in dealing with these, and inspired by the Britannian success with the Geass canceller, she commissioned a group of scientists to reproduce the effect but within a living human being.  Through studying the genetic changes that occurred when a person was granted Geass, the scientists thought to work out how to produce the desired effect.  They failed twenty four times, with the resulting creations not living past a month or so.  However, the twenty-fifth experiment produced a viable creation who lived past the month.  The baby boy, with remarkably solid orange eyes, grew as normal and for the first five years of his life was subjected to testing which was meant to determine whether or not they had succeeded in producing what they had been trying to.  They discovered that not only had they given the child the ability to cancel Geass, but also immunity to it himself.  However, before he could be properly trained by K.K.'s organization, the facility he was being held in was stormed and captured by Britannian forces.  He, and all data concerning him, were given to the scientists working on behalf of the Britannian government.  This young boy's life didn't much change, except for the fact that people were constantly trying to give him what they called a "real name" despite the fact that he would only answer to Experiment Y, X.Y., or simply Y.  Eventually, the military was made aware of the boy and at the time of his ninth birthday he was taken in to be trained as a soldier.  He excelled in every single regard, and graduated at the top of his class.  Given the nature of his power, he was then given over to the special forces who trained him further.  His skill in combat, as well as his particularly high scores in Knightmare piloting, had notice taken by the department of research and development who, with some urging from high command, began producing a custom Knightmare frame to be utilized by a pilot who proved to become more skilled each and every time he practiced. By the time he was 19, and this Jiang Kongming fellow set about trying to reform the Black Knights, he was ready to do his part and given control of the Azrael to ensure his ability to do so.[/spoiler]

 

Combat Info:

From the perspective of personal combat, X.Y. has been trained in several different martial arts including Krav Maga and more traditional styles like Karate.  Along with the unarmed training, he was also trained extensively with weaponry and is quite lethal with everything from a combat knife to an RPG.

 

In a Knightmare, X.Y. has a unique gift when it comes to piloting.  With skill unlike anyone seen before, he seems able to push a machine right up to its limits if the situation demands it.  For example, once during a training exercise against an enemy in a superior model of Knightmare he drove his own machine to the point that it tore itself apart in an attempt to defeat his foe.

 

[Spoiler=Knightmare:]

 

Name: Azrael

 

Specialization: Mid to Close-Range combat

 

[Spoiler=Appearance:]  The Azrael is similar in construction to other Knightmare frames and at the same time much different.  Where other Knightmares might have their exterior armor produced in some shape far different from more traditional forms of armor the Azrael appears to be wearing something worn by a holy warrior out of fantasy.  Firstly, its head appears to have been styled after a combination of hood and helmet as the face is almost featureless save for the glowing rectangular slits which make up its eyes.  The Knightmare’s face bears a crimson cross upon it which is split down the middle by a single line of gold, and otherwise from this it is black.  The rest of the head is rounded off towards the back with a single ridge down the center of it.  The shoulders are, honestly, quite large with each shaped something like half of a delta that has been rounded off.  On the lower inward corners of these shoulders, on both front and back, small emblems are attached which depict a scale in gold against a crimson background.  As with the mask, the primary color of these shoulders is black save the intricate gold trim around the side and the embossed royal seal of Britannia done entirely in gold.  The chest of the Knightmare frame is primarily black as well, though it bears a silver cross, which itself is set against a long pentagon of gold, over where the breast bone would be on a human.  Surrounding this are four red objects which appear to be gems cut into perfect hemispheres and surrounded with a ring of gold.  Down from these, and in fact seemingly held in place by them, are four silver objects styled to look like purity seals surrounded with crimson and gold trim.  The arms appear to be clad in black plate mail, with the hands formed as gauntlets bearing golden plates against their backs and a crimson band around the forearms which itself bears more of the intricate golden decoration so common in this Knightmare’s decoration.  Its legs are formed to give the appearance of brightly polished steel plates from the waist down to the knees, these plates having been engraved with more intricate patterns but bearing none of the flashier decorations of the rest of the frame.  The feet, though, are another story.  From the knee down the leg is covered in a single brilliantly shining golden plate which at the knee and ankle bears another crimson gem cut this time into a rectangular pyramid elongated at the upper and lower points with the feet bearing the same golden coloration.  It should also be noted that from the waist of this Knightmare a sort of skirt has been formed by the addition of several plates of silver and crimson hanging down from the waist to nearly ankle level.  These plates are only a few centimeters in width, and as such there are many of them pressed right up against one another.  Upon its back, the Azrael bears a flight system which, when activated, grants it the appearance of having six golden wings.  It should be noted that the occurrence of the names of certain metals in this description are used only to describe the color rather than the actual metals.[/spoiler]

 

Non-combat systems:

Light Weight Composites:  The Azrael's armor is composed of a remarkably strong, light-weight material proven to be incredibly resistant to impact.  As such, the Knightmare remains light without the traditional sacrifice to protection.

Enhanced Drive Mechanism:  The Azrael was designed to maneuver with greater speed and power than previous models of Knightmare.  This enhancing allows for it to, on foot, match speeds which had previously been attainable only by Knightmares deploying the wheels within their feet for rapid ground-based travel.  Additionally, this also means that melee strikes from the Azrael are significantly more powerful than those of other models of Knightmare.

Flight Pack: The Azrael’s flight system is a step up from the traditional energy wing technology as was utilized during the Zero Requiem.  Through a great deal of experimentation, a system more efficient at utilizing energy was produced.  This system allows for flight almost indefinitely, and at the cost of some air time can safely propel the Azrael up to Mach 2.5.

Geass Cancellation Field: Given the nature of the Azrael’s pilot, the team responsible for producing it felt they would expand upon the technology of the Geass Canceller.  The Geass Cancellation Field extends five meters around the Azrael and prevents the effects of Geass not only on the Knightmare itself but upon everything within the field.

Fail Safes:  The Azrael is equipped with fail safe systems throughout its frame, meant to protect it in the case of an electromagnetic pulse.  If such a pulse is detected within range harmful to the Knightmare, it automatically shuts down until the pulse is considered to have passed.  Once the danger is over, the Azrael begins an automatic reboot which takes anywhere from 60 to 90 seconds to complete.

Full Sensor Kit:  The Azrael is equipped with a full set of long and short range sensors allowing the pilot to maintain battlefield awareness.

 

Combat Systems:

Self Defense Field:  The Azrael is equipped with a passively active kinetic barrier which overlays its armor.  This barrier protects against sharp impacts(I.E. bullets, explosions, melee blows, etc.) of most kinds.  This, in addition to the armor plating of the Knightmare Frame, grants it the ability to withstand blows that would cripple or destroy other frames with little damage as a result.  This field can be overloaded with repeated impacts, but will recharge within a few seconds.

Plasma Spinners:  Within both of the Azrael's forearms are small projectors capable of popping out of the outer sides.  These projectors produce tight beams of plasma a meter and a half long, before spinning them about with sufficient speed that they appear only as a whirling circle of light.  These can be used offensively, or as an additional line of defense to further lessen the impact of strikes.

God Breaker:  While the Azrael is capable of wielding any number of weapons designed to be handled by Knightmares, there is one weapon which it specifically is equipped with.  God Breaker is a Glaive which, counting the blade, is as long as the Azrael is tall.  The blade is dangerous enough by itself, but is made even more deadly by an energy field which envelopes it granting the ability to parry energy blades without receiving damage.  What truly makes God Breaker a lethal weapon is the fact that it is powered by a self-contained Sakuradite reactor and as such the power fields surrounding the blade is of monstrous power and sparks violently with electricity.  Almost every energy and power weapon which God Breaker was tested against failed catastrophically after taking a single blow from this mighty weapon.  Needless to say, the armor of a Knightmare frame would be little challenge for such a blade to cut through.  The weapon was given its name after its creator, an engineer by the name of Doctor Blackmoore, claimed "This is a weapon of such power that even the gods will be broken beneath it."[/spoiler]

 

Miscellaneous: Theme music

So...is my app accepted?

Yeah, Keto, you're in.

I can understand that he needs more on his personality. It was my intention to make a character who, unlike most of my other rp characters, had little information about him since I wanted his existence, and motives, to be a complete mystery. It was my intention to reveal small details about his life and history as the rp progressed. If you want I will improve his emotional state, however that was also supposed to evolve over the RP. Also, involving my Geass, it was intended that he be able to use it only once on a person. Being that he can't control what it does to the intended targe. An added side effect is that the more he uses it the more likely it will be that he will be destroyed by his power, the intention is that he would die by the power of his own mind at some point, if not during this RP then during some point in his future.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Time for me to be this guy again.  How many people do you want to be in this before we start?

[Thranduil]

Per your request I will redo the App and improve on his geass abilities and his emotions.

Character Name: Arcturus

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Appearance: Arcturus has a broad build and a well muscled/toned body, although you would never tell thanks to the brown sheet he always wears. No one knows what he looks like, whether he is bald or has a full head of hair thanks to his cloak. All you can see is his mouth, and that is only on occasion. He has a jagged slash across his upper and lower lip going down towards his left side. Once, when he was young, he was told that he had gold colored eyes and white hair but he never bothered to check in a mirror to verify that. Although it is hard to tell, his skin is a deep bronze color from continued exposure to the sunlight.

Personality: Arturus appears to have no personality. Thanks to his sheet that he wears, and his monotone voice, you can never tell what he is feeling. In spite of this he is in fact quite clever and quick to respond to a quote or remark that insults him with one that has a psychological impact on the person. He rarely smiles, he has smiled on two occasions, the first was when he was only a little boy and he had gotten a perfect score on something called an SAT. The second time is while he was in the forest, he was hunting and saw a family of foxes playing. On occasion he does enjoy a good book, however you would never tell.

Biography: Arcturus just came to be. From what he was told by the people who raised him he simply appeared from the forest one day. As he grew he discovered that he could do things, it started when he was eight years old. He was being picked on by a few kids, he had always been taught that violence never solves problems but he just wanted to hurt them so badly. He told the kids who were attacking them to stop. To his surprise they did, they stopped talking, eating, sleeping, they just stopped moving. It was as though he had killed them inside their minds. The kids ended up dying of dehydration three days later. When every one found out that he caused what happened to the kids everyone, including his adopted parents shunned him. In shunning him, it gave Arcturus a perfect reason to finally leave. Taking nothing with him except an old worn brown sheet he fled never to be heard from again. While living in the wilderness he learned stealth and became an expert marksman. In his wanderings he inadvertently stumbled into one of the heavily populated cities ruled by the Brittanian Empire, where, being mistaken for a homeless vagrant, he was immediately conscripted into the army. Although he was conscripted and is now a member of the army, he never removed his old worn brown sheet, and any attempt to do so has lead to some broken bones in the assaulter. Only once has he ever had relations of any kind, it was when he was still a young recruit in the Brittanian army. A young woman in the military had caught a glimpse of his eyes and found him irresistible ever since. She never left him alone for more than five minutes. One day he gave into her demands and had sex with her, he enjoyed it but she didn't last, while in a moment of passion he lost control of his Geass and the woman killed herself. Ever since then he has worked even harder to not make eye contact with anyone.

Combat Ability: Although Arcturus has some skill with hand to hand combat, and can pilot a Knightmare well enough, he feels most at home behind a good bow, of which he wields with his Knightmare, always maintaining a solid distance until he is ready for the finishing blow.

Knightmare:

Name: Silvam Venator

Specialization: Long ranged assassinations

Appearance: Looks just like a generic Knightmare

Non-Combat Systems: Believing that men weren't meant to fly Arcturus removed the ability to fly, basically removed the anti gravity module. But in it's place made improvements to ground maneuverability, making it fast enough to keep up with flying Knightmares and agile enough to dodge most anything that is not moving faster than the speed of sound. He also modified the weight displacement of the Knightmare allowing for over buoyancy, essentially able to walk on water.

Combat Systems: Arcturus never liked the block like defense system on the Knightmares, so instead he ditched the common defense system and inverted the light abilities making it possible for his Knightmare to completely vanish from sight. He dubbed it the Light Manipulation Shield, the down side is that this requires seven times more energy and can only be maintained for a maximum of five minutes. The last improvement he made was by ditching the clunky over sized gun that all Knightmares have and replaced it with a bow of his design. The bow is hidden inside of the right arm of the Knightmare and can be deployed with a flick of his wrist. The weapon is called the Orion bow and fires three different types of bolts. The first type, and most powerful, fires bolts of pure electricity, but this is drawn from the power source of the Knightmare making him only able to fire a maximum of ten shots before the battery dies, and it is unusable if he is using the Light Manipulation Shield. The second one uses the regular energy usually reserved for the guns. The third is the least powerful but his favorite to use. The Orion bow is stored in the Knightmare's right forearm, the third ammunition is stored in the Knightmare's left forearm. To the onlooker it would appear to be nothing more than simple arrows, however they are a fusion of super light aluminum with carbon. This fusion makes the arrows super light and incredibly strong. Arcturus knows that the Hexagon shields were designed to defend against powerful physical attacks, however his arrows, although fast, are not fast enough for the Hexagon shields to register as a threat and the arrow's go right through the defense systems. As a back up, in case an arm, gets removed from the equation, he carries a short sword that is attached to the back of his Knightmare.

Geass: "The Blind Man" A Geass that manipulates the perception of a persons body to their mind. The ability can do one of two things, depending on the subconscious of the person being effected. It can either send the person to a state of total bliss leaving them helpless to anything that might occur. Or it can create an imagined threat that will cause them true physical harm until they die. The use of the Geass is dangerous to Arcturus though, if he is not absolutely sure about his use of the Geass on the target it can back lash and send him into a temporary paramnesia. How Arcturus got this ability is not known, he was told that he was born with it. (Can be possible if person has strong enough will.)

Miscellaneous: Arcturus must have rabbit with every meal. If he does not get rabbit he will simply not eat. The longest he has gone without foot was a whole month.

Thranduril, just to clarify something.  Razed means something entirely different than Raised.  Razed means to have been destroyed, as in a building.  Raised is what you were looking for I think.

[RogueZero]

So now we have :

 

- The one who can calm people down

 

- The one who can suspend time

 

- The one who can cancel the other Geass

 

- The one who can affect the mind perception

 

Wow, we're really formidable XD

To the onlooker it would appear to be nothing more than simple arrows, however they are a fusion of super light aluminum with carbon. This fusion makes the arrows super light and incredibly strong. Arcturus knows that the Hexagon shields were designed to defend against powerful physical attacks, however his arrows, although fast, are not fast enough for the Hexagon shields to register as a threat and the arrow's go right through the defense systems. As a back up, in case an arm, gets removed from the equation, he carries a short sword that is attached to the back of his Knightmare.

Geass: "The Blind Man" A Geass that manipulates the perception of a persons body to their mind. The ability can do one of two things, depending on the subconscious of the person being effected. It can either send the person to a state of total bliss leaving them helpless to anything that might occur. Or it can create an imagined threat that will cause them true physical harm until they die. The use of the Geass is dangerous to Arcturus though, if he is not absolutely sure about his use of the Geass on the target it can back lash and send him into a temporary paramnesia. How Arcturus got this ability is not known, he was told that he was born with it. (Can be possible if person has strong enough will.)

Miscellaneous: Arcturus must have rabbit with every meal. If he does not get rabbit he will simply not eat. The longest he has gone without foot was a whole month.

[/spoiler]

The Geass really isn't important to your character. It's not explained either how he got it. I will accept your app if you remove the Geass (and of course, you have to change the Bio). It will be possible to acquire a Geass later on.

 

Is C.C. available as a character?

 

Hey, TFF, you still have to submit an app for your Knightmare and tell me how you acquired it.

 

“Main Character:” Bland copy of Lelouch with no discernable motivations, a cliched personality (which also doesn’t meet the section requirements wink wink nudge nudge) and a Geass that somehow manages to be more OPed than the first one and equally unfit for RPing.

 

 

[spoiler=Jiang Kongming/AixDivadis]Really isn't Code Geass without a Lelouch-esque character, ya know. Sorry for being similar to Lelouch. He was just so bad ass.

[hr]Character Name: Jiang Kongming (蒋孔明)
Age: 19
Gender: Male
[hr]Appearance: Jiang Kongming is a tall teenage boy with thin orange eyes, which in reality are red, but he covers them with Geass-blocking contact lenses (his original eye color was orange). He is Chinese and carries an air of elegance about him, everything about him is thin and elegant, from his frame to his silky hair. His hair is raven black and worn like Lelouch’s, rather long with long bangs. Despite being thin, Kongming is quite toned from relatively regular work outs.
He wears a long smooth black tuxedo top unbuttoned with very angular and pointed shoulders and a tight navy blue shirt underneath untucked and meant to make people feel at ease with his lack of complete formal wear. On the shirt is the symbol of the Black Knights, in silver, a Geass Symbol with a Sword struck through the middle. He wears thin black track pants and featureless black shoes.
[hr]Personality: Jiang Kongming is the type that people look up to, he strives very hard to keep his image of a kind, loving and benevolent leader figure and has done well enough to earn respect even amongst the other kingly Geass users under K.K. Because he has kept up this image for so long, it no longer requires any effort of him. But, keeping an image has often lead to him frequently lying to another to cover things up, deeming it to be for their good, as he understands the stress and responsibility of his subordinates and that a healthy mental state will lead to better performance. However, this had become an instinct in him now, and when asked about anything from someone under him, he almost automatically tells them what he believes they would want to hear.

Kongming is very proud, he truly believes that he would be the best leader and suited to rule the world. He is stubborn and refuses to admit mistakes, even to himself, and this is a great mistake. Refusal for anything, even relatively simple things, he takes as a personal insult and keeps score of grudges, this includes friendly grudges, and in this way, he may seem immature.

Like Lelouch, Kongming does not hesitate to let people die "for the greater good", if anything got in the way of his plan, it is to be immediately removed and things will proceed as normal. Of course, being in a much easier situation than Lelouch was, he has less need to resort to drastic methods that will yield great casualties. The closer to his goal he is, the more drastic and insanely excited he seems.

His current motivation is to avenge his twin sister, Hao.

[hr]Biography: Jiang Kongming is actually the cousin of Empress Tianzi of the United States of China. During the reign of the High Eunuchs, the young and naive Kongming and his twin sister, Hao, opposed them, seeing that they were the true political force in China and he wished to see them gone. The Eunuchs managed to frame him which gave them an excuse to execute him. However, the Emperor was lenient and Kongming got off with exile.
Wandering through the Areas (colonies) of Britannia, the Jiang Twins were struck by the extreme poverty and discrimination. Eventually, they met K.K., she had been seeking the world for suitable people to form a contract with and bestow the Geass upon. Thinking her a charming woman, Kongming accepted her contract as she had phrased it as “uniting the world”, though Hao was not so sure, she, after seeing the power of the Geass, accepted it.
For a long time, they worked together, doing underground deals and finding more suitable people. Many unspeakable things were done, but they helped for the sake of justice and bringing proper peace into the world.
It was Hao who first observed the K.K. was doing things out of her own selfishness, K.K. had too much to hide and her cruel sadism was not completely concealed. She was going to mention it to Kongming, but decided to gather more concrete evidence, for during this time, the twins had grown apart due to K.K. sending them on separate missions. It was by no means an accident, K.K. had meant for such a thing to happen, for she feared the bond between the two and especially Hao's great scrupulousness.

After being discovered by K.K. for eavesdropping, Hao was secretly taken care of and it was only three months later which Kongming found out. He was overtaken by emotion, but fortunately, K.K. was not directly within reach at the time and he did not attack her. Falling prone to the ground in shock, he managed to cool down and planned his revenge, he would escape to Britannia and take K.K. down. He, too, was discovered, K.K. saw that he had packed some stuff and figured out his intentions. Seeing the cat was out of the bag, K.K. explained herself, and revealed her intentions and though she underestimated Kongming who, earlier, had to rig the building with bombs and with the explosion as a distraction, Kongming managed to escape.

He met up with Dante Azuma and proceeded directly to the Britannian Headquarters to meet Empress Nunnally.

[hr]Combat Ability

Jiang Kongming is a rather good Knightmare Pilot, though by no means excellent, he is easily outclassed by experts such as Zero and Kallen.

Knightmare: Kongming has a custom Knightmare called Guanyu. It stands taller than most Knightmare at 22 feet and has a sleek, smooth and streamlined design with few hard edges. It is painted mainly green, with red and gold. It's main Factsphere is on its forehead, looking like a strange decorative jewel on the Knightmare's green "hat", and two more Factspheres are located on the Knightmare's shoulder guards, which take the shape of gold dragons, facing the sides.[spoiler='Knightmare Design Inspiration'][/spoiler]Knightmare Specialty: The Knightmare's most unique function is its rotating torso which allows the Knightmare to spin at extreme speed while extending its glaive. It's Landspinners are also special in that they are spheres rather than wheels, allowing for even faster and erratic rotation.

Knightmare Weaponry:

- Four Slash Harkens which shoot from the Knightmare's arm braces or knee joints and an additional which shoots from the Knightmare's face.

- Dragon Cannon, a miniature Hadron Cannon which can shoot from either shoulder pad dragon.

- Maser Vibration Glaive, a polearm version of the Maser Vibration Sword, but combined with the Radiant Wave power for further power.

Knightmare Equipment:

- A strange float system that is shaped like a gold circle on the Knightmare's back, it's like a cross between the Float System and Air Glide System.

- Back Thruster, when the Guanyu goes into a runner's stance, it can activate a jetpack on it's back which gives it extreme speed to charge.

Geass: Jiang Kongming’s Geass makes a person calm down and feel safe. It makes the person regard you with admiration, awe and loyalty that stems from the bottom of their heart. It makes a person want to help you and earn your approval. It is called "The King's Charisma and only affects those who have looked him in the eye and remain within 20 feet of him. He can only use it for a maximum of ten minutes at a time and a full recharge takes one hour, once it is no longer in effect, he cannot use it and any effect it had wears off. It does not have any physical effects on Kongming himself.
[hr]Miscellaneous: Kongming has no qualms against indulging in food and drink. He hosted many parties while he was with K.K. to improve morale.[/spoiler]

Rinne? Dis be better, right? :3

[Tourmaline]

Hey, I'm going to tell you now that I might be signing up for this in the near future, but not right this moment, if you don't mind. I still have to read everything and I'm busy now.

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Hey, TFF, you still have to submit an app for your Knightmare and tell me how you acquired it.

Clearly, you have never heard of the legendary Akatsuki Command Model C.C. Custom.

IT'S SO PAHNK!!!

[RogueZero]

Clearly, you have never heard of the legendary Akatsuki Command Model C.C. Custom.

IT'S SO PAHNK!!!

 

Unfortunately, I had already heard about it XD

 

#get kicked by C.C.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Aix, I'd like to ask again what requirements you are waiting to be met before the RP begins.  Also, I'd like to ask any and everyone's opinion concerning the Azrael and whether or not there are concerns about its level of power.

 

On an additional note, I really like Thranduil's Knightmare.  The Silvam Venator honestly seems to be pretty damned cool, particularly the way its arrows function and the system allowing for it to walk on water.  A system I am dubbing, "Jesus Feet."

[Aix]

Hm... I'll just start it after Thranduil removes his Geass, because it really has no big relevance to his character. Barian and Hina both said they will join later on.

[bury the year]

Hmm. I'm still a bit personally iffy about the other characters, but I think I can put my anal retentiveness aside for once. Does anyone care for a mission-control type character?

[encapturer]

Character Name: Maria Relison
Age: 18
Gender: Female
[spoiler=Appearance:][/spoiler]
Maria stands at a decent height, being about 5'9" tall. Looking at her face, one would immediately notice her green eyes, and how they always make her look... detached from the world. She keeps her straight, blonde hair well groomed, usually letting it fall down a bit past her shoulders, tying in up in a braid or ponytail when need be. She doesn't pay that much attention to her wardrobe, however, as she is usually seen wearing a uniform or other formal attire. Some would call it a shame - she does have a nice body after all, or so they say. In fact, if it wasn't for the uniforms, she would look like a delicate young woman not fit for the military. The only accessory she is always seen wearing is a pearl bracelet on her left wrist, given to her by her mother when young.
Personality: Maria constantly feels the urge to improve herself.  Of course, this is a problem as well, as when things don't go as planned, she is very hard on herself.  Living in solitude has caused her to treat other people as just objects, mere characters in a play.  It doesn't show, since she is nice on the surface, but lacks empaty with others, which can cause... problems.  If one were to befriend her, however, one would find a kind and steadfast ally, as one would be treated as a 'person' and not a 'thing'.  One would have to get used to her odd mannerisms stemming from her personality.  As such, she seems to be a loner at first, but she does have a few friends.  Her other defining factor is her love of Knightmares; she collected toys as a child and tends to obsess over new tech.  Doesn't really have a knack at actual R&D, but some good ideas can be found in that creative mind of hers.
Biography: Maria comes from a well-off Brittanian family, though there have been troubles.  Her father used to be rather influential, but with the dissolution of the nobility at large, he has lost a large amount of political power.  Maria herself signed onto the Royal Britannian Military Academy at her father's suggestion.  She knows he expects her to become a great pilot for prestige, but Maria is just happy to be able to pilot the things.  Reality hit, and she found herself not doing as well as expected.  Still, she managed to graduate.

The biggest problem she has right now is her father.  Rumors have been going around that he has been doing sneaky things to regain influence.  Those rumors have spread to herself; "Don't trust that Relison girl," she often overhears.  Still, she has a few good friends, especially among engineers and technicians, many of which really don't care about the political climate of the world as much as Maria's peers.  This has given her the chance to test out new experimental technologies, though only a few of them are actually useful.
Combat Info: She is a crack shot with a firearm.  In a brawl, she can defend herself well, but cannot usually harm foes directly.  In a knightmare, she is a force to be reckoned with... on the ground.  Her aerial performance is middling at best, but she has gotten good at fighting an airborne opponent while mostly grounded.
Knightmare: Vincent - Maria Custom.

At first glance, Maria's Vincent looks much like any other modern Vincent, even equipped with an Air Glide System.  However, Maria's Air Glide System is equipped with some experimental tech.  By retracting the 'wings' into the base of the unit, the Vincent loses the ability to fly, but gains some other abilities instead.

 - Dermal Armor:  An extra layer of armor attached to the knightmare.  It is held together by electromagnetic forces generated within the Air Glide System.  The frame can even fly with Dermal Armor active, but at lower speeds.  If pieces of the armor is broken off, the knightmare can repair it by magnetically pulling nearby debris to patch it up.  This takes some time, and it uses so much power that the knightmare cannot fly or use the following two abilites.
 
 - Resonance Shield: The effectiveness of the Dermal Armor's protection can be enhanced by high speed vibrations.  Many attacks can be nullified, or the damage minimized, but eventually, even the best materials will fall apart.  Since the normal Vincent Armor cannot be used for the Resonance Shield, one would need to regenerate the Dermal Armor if this happens.  If one knows where the attack is coming from, only part of the Dermal Armor can be activated with the shield, increasing the Armor's longetivity.  The knightmare cannot be flying, regenerating, or using the following ability if it is to use Resonance Shield.
 
 - Acceleration Drive: Enables unprecedented speed and agility on the ground.  Combined with landspinners, allows the pilot to instantly change it velocity vector and heading. The knightmare needs to be touching something; as it needs to exert force on something to trigger the ability.  While landspinners are the best piece of equipment to use this ability with, any part of the knighmare can trigger the Acceleration Drive; it just won't be as effective.  The knightmare cannot fly, regerate Dermal Armor, or use its Resonance Shield while this is active.
Miscellaneous:
 
I'm planning to join with this character.  Appearance has always been the tough one for me, but I should have it done sometime today.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Hmm. I'm still a bit personally iffy about the other characters, but I think I can put my anal retentiveness aside for once. Does anyone care for a mission-control type character?

 

Personally, Rinne, I would enjoy just RPing with you.  Also the "mission control-type character" isn't something I've seen done before so I would be interested to see it implemented.

[Thranduil]

Alright so I will edit his Geass to none and alter his bio.

 

 

Character Name: Arcturus (Lupus)

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Appearance: Standing at around 5' 11" Arcturus has a broad build and a well muscled/toned body, although you would never tell thanks to the wolf pelts he always wears. No one knows what he looks like, whether he is bald or has a full head of hair thanks to his cloak. All you can see is his mouth. He has a jagged slash across his upper and lower lip going down towards his left side. Through the eye holes of the wolf pelt you can slightly make out gold colored eyes but it is not easy to spot. His skin is a deep bronze color from continued exposure to the sunlight.

Personality: Arcturus appears to have no personality. Thanks to his cloak that he wears, and his monotone voice, you can never tell what he is feeling. In spite of this he is in fact quite clever and quick to respond to a quote or remark that insults him with one that has a psychological impact on the person. He rarely smiles, he has smiled on two occasions, the first was when he was only a little boy and he had gotten a perfect score on something called an SAT. The second time is while he was in the forest, he was hunting and saw a family of foxes playing. On occasion he does enjoy a good book, however you would never tell. 

Biography: Arcturus just came to be. From what he was told by the people who raised him he simply appeared from the forest one day. At the age of five he was adopted by a kindhearted family. He was raised with two brothers and a sister. While he enjoyed the time he spent with his adopted family something was always nagging at the back of his mind. On his tenth birthday he ask if they could all go out to the forest and explore the wildlife. The family agreed and packed up for a one week trip to an ancient forest in the heart of Ireland. While the family were having a picnic on the borders of the Dún na Rí Forest Arcturus thought that he heard something in the forest and went exploring. He never came back out of the forest. He was not sure if people searched for him extensively or not but he did not care he was in a place of peace that he had never found before. Through out his life in the forest he became an expert marksman and gained an amazing talent for stealth. He remembered hearing when he was young that the wolf population was reintroduced to help with a growing problem of deer populations. As a tool for survival he killed six wolves and turned their pelts into a full body cloak, where the head of one acted as a hood. When he was around eighteen he stumbled out of the forests and into Dublin. Being mistaken for a homeless vagrant  who, as the authorities had put it,had stolen someones clothes, he was immediately drafted into the army. While in the military attempts were made to force him into the proper regimental clothing, however all attempts made at this failed miserably, usually ending in broken bones for the poor fool who tried to make him take off his wolf pelt cloak. Eventually everyone just started calling him Lupus because of the cloak, but it never bothered him. During his time in the Academy he had relations with one person, a woman by the name of Junia. He enjoyed the perks of the relationship, however on a routine training exercise Junia's Knightmare malfunctioned and exploded killing her and injuring three other Academy students.

Combat Ability: Although Arcturus has some skill with hand to hand combat, and can pilot a Knightmare well enough, he feels most at home behind a good bow, of which he wields with his Knightmare, always maintaining a solid distance until he is ready for the finishing blow.

Knightmare:

Name: Silvam Venator (Forest Hunter in Latin)

Specialization: Long ranged assassinations

Appearance: Looks just like a generic Eighth Generation Knightmare

Non-Combat Systems: Believing that men weren't meant to fly Arcturus removed the ability to fly, basically removed the anti gravity module. But in it's place made improvements to ground maneuverability, making it fast enough to keep up with flying Knightmares and agile enough to dodge most anything that is not moving faster than the speed of sound (under water which is faster than air). He also modified the weight displacement of the Knightmare allowing for over buoyancy, essentially able to walk on water.

Combat Systems: Arcturus never liked the block like defense system on the Knightmares, so instead he ditched the common defense system and inverted the light abilities making it possible for his Knightmare to completely vanish from sight. He dubbed it the Light Manipulation Shield, the down side is that this requires seven times more energy and can only be maintained for a maximum of five minutes. The last improvement he made was by ditching the clunky over sized gun that all Knightmares have and replaced it with a bow of his design. The bow is hidden inside of the right arm of the Knightmare and can be deployed with a flick of his wrist. The weapon is called the Orion bow and fires three different types of bolts. The first type, and most powerful, fires bolts of pure electricity, but this is drawn from the power source of the Knightmare making him only able to fire a maximum of ten shots before the battery dies, and it is unusable if he is using the Light Manipulation Shield. The second one uses the regular energy usually reserved for the guns. The third is the least powerful but his favorite to use. The Orion bow is stored in the Knightmare's right forearm, the third ammunition is stored in the Knightmare's left forearm. To the onlooker it would appear to be nothing more than simple arrows, however they are a fusion of super light aluminum with carbon. This fusion makes the arrows super light and incredibly strong. Arcturus knows that the Hexagon shields were designed to defend against powerful physical attacks, however his arrows, although fast, are not fast enough for the Hexagon shields to register as a threat and the arrow's go right through the defense systems. As a back up, in case an arm, gets removed from the equation, he carries a short sword that is attached to the back of his Knightmare.

Geass: None....(might get one later, depends on what the RP Leader says)

Miscellaneous: Arcturus must have rabbit with every meal. If he does not get rabbit he will simply not eat. The longest he has gone without foot was a whole month.

Personally, Rinne, I would enjoy just RPing with you.  Also the "mission control-type character" isn't something I've seen done before so I would be interested to see it implemented.

Rinne is no longer joining, unfortunately.

 

Thranduil, you are in. 

 

encapturer, alright, you'll be in once I approve the Appearance.

 

IC will be up tonight or tomorrow morning, I'll try for tonight.

[Dwarven King]

DK here! I'll try to get an app in tonight! And I won't have geass!!!

Updated here.
