Holyspring [TEACHING] [Started!]

[bury the year]

(If you're confused about the [TEACHING] tag, check the rules thread.)

This is the RP we will be leading you guys in for my section the Highlander School. Therefore, it's not a Basic or an Advanced, but a Teaching-level, where Shadius and I will be giving advice to you throughout the RP. This will mainly focus on realistic urban fantasy with a side-goal of proper Japanese terms and usage. Although teaching RPs are supposed to be lenient, we will remove you if you aren't active. Also, on a personal note, I am writing a fic that goes along with this RP, and my character is the main one. Therefore, please tell me through some means of communication if you do not want your ideas to appear in the novelization. Finally, lesson posts will be posted throughout the RP; these are OOC tutorials to different parts of RPing.

Now, shall we begin?

Tenzen Private Academy. Due to Tokyo's rampant over-development, the academy was build to hand-groom talented young teenage prospects and turn them into society as leaders. Of course, that's the mission statement of many a school, but with Tenzen, it's no exaggeration. Those who leave the school usually do achieve a high echelon in the world, either in business, politics, or the creative arts.

You, an Ordinary Teenager™, was utterly surprised when a single letter was dropped in your mailbox one day. An acceptance letter, specifically, to Tenzen Academy. You're confused, however, because you didn’t apply; much less believe that you'd be accepted. However, you aren't getting in on an average scholarship, because your focus is something that's hidden from the public eye. The Spiritual Department.

You see, the world is bordered by the unnatural creatures of myth and legend. Demons, fae, or whatever you might want to call them, they're there, and not exactly all happy and peaceful with their segregation from the real world. The Tenzen Academy therefore trains certain spiritually-aware teenagers to become exorcists, "supernatural policemen" who keep this world and ours as separate as possible. However, there's a conspiracy brewing on the other side which threatens to tear the divide apart. Do you have the skills needed to stop it?

[spoiler=Rinne {TEACHER} – Tatsuma Aoyagi][b]Name:[/b] Tatsuma Aoyagi (青柳竜馬, [i]Aoyagi Tatsuma[/i])
[b]Age:[/b] 15
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Appearance:[/b] Tatsuma has messy reddish-brown hair that hangs in unorganized spikes over green-blue eyes. He does have some muscle on him from kendo, but not an overt amount, and he stands at average height. Tatsuma has a rather friendly personality, and usually wears simple clothing. This is usually a green T-shirt with white sleeves, a pair of blue jeans, and white running shoes, along with a thin silver necklace.
[b]Personality:[/b] He’s usually quite upbeat and optimistic, so Tatsuma doesn’t let things that are out of his control worry him much. This can lead to him being an airhead at inopportune times, without using much common knowledge. However, he doesn’t have bad intentions behind his mistakes, and he always tries to correct his mess-ups before they grow out of hand. In all, Tatsuma’s a likeable enough kid, if you can put up with his habits.
[b]Backstory Fragments:[/b] He’s currently living with his father, Masayuki, and his older sister, Yukari; his mother divorced when Yukari was 7 and Tatsuma was 1, and he hasn’t seen her since. He has taken kendo since he was 11, and has decent sword-wielding skills. However, he still messes up in spots, treating it more as a formal sport.
[b]Exorcism Weapon:[/b] Kusanagi-Kai (草薙改, [i]Kusanagi Revised[/i]): A supposed replica of Kusanagi, the famously unseen sword from Shinto mythology. The sword is shaped like a chokuto, but has a silvery-white blade with a blue-green hilt and a wave pattern running down the blade. During the forging and folding process, the blade was cooled with a mixture of holy waters and oils specifically for exorcisms, giving it widescale strengths against various otherworldly sources.
[b]Strengths and Weaknesses:[/b] Tatsuma’s rather physically active, and can be depended on in situations that need some strength. He also does have experience with a sword, and can hold his own in battle. However, he isn’t the smartest when it comes to books, and lacks a good deal of common sense. Therefore, he sometimes requires a push in the right direction in order to get going. Also, he can be a bit brash on occasion, jumping into something without considering the consequences.
[b]Novelization?:[/b] n/a

[spoiler=Fenrir - Takashi Komemura]Name: Takashi Komemura (米村孝, [i]Komemura Takashi[/i])
[b]Age:[/b] 15
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Appearance:[/b] He has unkempt dark brown hair, with some chin stubble, and a bang falling near his eye. He also has yellow eyes, and is lightly tanned. His arm muscles are a bit larger than an average teen's. He's usually always wearing his metallic grey hoodie, with his navy jeans. He generally has black loafers on, and usually has a lax face.
[b]Personality:[/b] At first glance, he seems lazy, with a sarcastic nature. He is analyzing, and calm in any situation. Most foes, will be taken back by his lax look, and underestimate him to a degree. He really doesn't like to show off, preferring to keep it less flashy.
[b]Backstory Fragments:[/b] He's had an average life, nothing special. He's had a bad record in middle school, due to his sarcasm often enraging students. When he was 10, he was very outgoing, but as he hit 12 his outgoing personality sort of died down. Currently, his parents have left him in Japan seeing as they trust him enough to be alone. They are apparently on a cruise, seeing the world.
[b]Exorcism Weapon:[/b] A totem pole, it's about as tall as him with a relatively short 'hilt' sticking out of the bottom for easier use. The bottom head is a Kappa, the middle a Kitsune, and the top an Oni. Takashi says he isn't sure, but most likely it's made form Sakura. Which is rare. He uses it like a blunt weapon, literally swinging it at an enemy's head. Also, depending on how he slams it into the ground, he summon a Shikigami. If he plants it with the hilt down, it can act as a center base being able to sense Demons. When a Demon draws near, the Totem starts to shake, and depending on how fast it's shaking, the closer the Demoni.
[b]Strengths and Weaknesses:[/b] He isn't the type to be shaken easily so openings are generally hard to come by, unless he mishandles his weapon. Since his arms are well developed, he is quite strong. Of course, he isn't the fastest. That being said, if anyone ever does manage to get him emotional he will start to make more mistakes. Also, since he doesn't talk much to people, or try to socialize, people don't trust him as often.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Namo™ – Kichirou Watanabe][b]Name:[/b] Kichirou Watanabe (渡辺吉郎, [i]Watanabe Kichirou[/i])
[b]Age:[/b] 14
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Appearance:[/b] Short for his age, maybe 4'11". He has blonde hair, Green eyes and some unusual gloves. He wears what usual teenagers wear, he wears Jeans with a belt making sure they never fall down on him or while he is trying to be "Pantsed", a T-Shirt with a cartoon type skull printed in the middle and hashis shoulder lengths ripped. He has a light skin except in the summer through the fall, he has darker skin(Tan) he is Slim yet weak, he doesnt have arm nor leg strength
[b]Personality:[/b] Doesn't talk much. He has many interests. He is a gamer as well as a certain kind of Athlete. he gets ticked off very easily. He can be very competitively but is still a good sport, but once his opponent ticks him off, there is no mercy! If there is a group project, or if he has to speak for a certain group, even if he doesn't like the people he is working with, he respects them and does the work properly
[b]Backstory Fragments:[/b] While playing with fire, he burned himself, the reason he wears fingerless gloves. He is a child born of American but abandoned. His foster parents named him for their first child, the great son they had first seeing as Kichirou is thier savior and heir to their family line
[b]Exorcism Weapon:[/b] Shakujō, graced in gold, lining with red paint, The "Butt" is made of pure metal and painted black. The rings on the top are more like ovals then circles
[b]Strengths and Weaknesses:[/b] Very good in sports that dont require lots of "Athletics" such as Ping Pong, Baseball. His legs are very weak and he cannot stand for a long period of time
[b]Novelization?:[/b] Sure :3[/spoiler][/spoiler][spoiler=Demons][spoiler=XxShadiusxX {TEACHER} - Kimiko Akune][b]Name:[/b] Kimiko Akune (阿久根君子, [i]Akune Kimiko[/i])

[b]Age:[/b] 16,000

[b]Gender:[/b] Female

[b]Appearance:[/b]

After a certain amount of time has passed Kimiko's appearence will change.

Human Form:

Taking the form of a young nine year old girl who had been born into royality, Kimiko tends to wear a purple silk kimono with a small pink sash and a small water lily in her long black hair. To finish her innocent appearance is a small pair of black sandals that share a similar shade to that of her hair.

Demon Form:

Even with the Demon King Baal as her father, Kimiko tends to go with bat like alterations on her human form in a attempt to keep her cuteness factor. To start things off the clothing the girl seem to disappear leaving a covering of a dark yet soft fur stranding from the foot to the knee, the shoulders to the wrists and finally the top half of the back where the girl's wings stranded out.

[b]Personality:[/b] Again this is something that will change along with the appearence.

To go along with her royal yet innocent human form, Kimiko tries to maintain a young yet energenic persona. However bits of her royal demon nature tend to leak out in the ways of a young princess or a queen's supriority complex. She can be condescending and rude to people, even to those she doesn't really know, which can be somewhat shocking.

[b]Abilities:[/b]

Life Absorbtion - Range: Arm's reach - Ability Type: Offensive
Description: With the generation of a dark purple energy around her hand this abillity allows Kimiko to feed on the soul of a human being. There are also rumors that when the soul is feed on it is slowly corrupted, turning a human into a demon worshiper.

Bat Control - Range: All - Ability Type: Support
Description: Allowing the control and generation of bats Kimiko can used the winged rats in any method that comes to mind.

Energy Manipulation - Range: Mid to Far - Ability Type: Offensive
Description: A fancy term for green energy blasts. Do I need to go into detail here?

[b]Strengths and Weaknesses:[/b] Kimiko has a truly commanding presence, and can order around demons that are twice her size. She also is rather fast, and can easily think on her feet. However, the demoness isn't that strong, and does have a bit of bullish-ness to her.

[b]Attitude Towards Humans:[/b] She hates females but finds certain males attractive. Mostly thinks of them like a queen would the poor. However, there always is the manipulative factor in there, and she thinks of everyone in some way or another as her pawns.

[b]Novelization?:[/b] Yus.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Ingo-San - ???][/spoiler]
[spoiler=shadowferret - Gamigin][b]Name:[/b] Gamigin (ガミギン, [i]Gamigin[/i]
[b]Age:[/b] 14, 654 years old
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Appearance:[/b] Gamigin's appearances can vary depending on how he wants to look, but he has two formes he likes to use often.

HUMAN FORME:
As a human, Gamigin has short blonde hair and vivid blue eyes. His skin is pale, as if he hasn't seen sunlight ever in his life. His human forme resembles that of a 24 year old Irishman, and he has a thin body that doesn't look very muscley. Rather tall, Gamigin's human forme stands at about 5'11". The clothes he wears vary, but usually he's into wearing 80's clothes.

DEMON FORME:
As a Demon, Gamigin resembles a minotaur. Instead of having the normal horns, though, he has antlers like a deer's. His skin is a deep shade of blue, somewhat resembling the colour of ice, and random patches of fur along his arms and legs are a bright red. Otherwise, he stands at 7 feet tall, but still lacks a lot of muscle mass like his human forme.

[b]Personality:[/b] Gamigin is a very mischievous person. Though he is mostly kind to the few that he cares about, he likes to steal a lot and tends to be just a little manipulative. Even to the people he's closest to, he doesn't really show his complete personality to them. This closed-off aspect of his personality could be from living a long life with other demons who aren't exactly trustworthy. With the more intelligent humans, Gamigin is very friendly and enjoys conversing with them, but with the stupider ones he simply toys with them and looks down on them. When associating with demons, however, Gamigin is very cold and calculating, and never talks to all but a few of them. There are one or two he likes to hold conversations with, but to every other demon he simply stays silent and gives them the cold shoulder.
[b]Abilities:[/b] Gamigin comes off as someone friendly while in his human forme, meaning it's easier for other humans to trust him rather quickly. This isn't really a demonic ability, but more a character trait of his. He can also slightly muddle someone's thoughts, making it harder for them to think and concentrate. This ability isn't too strong, really, but can lead to slight, annoying headaches on the victim. Additionally, Gamigin can lower the temperature of an object as well as the air around him, even to the point of freezing into solid ice.
[b]Strengths and Weaknesses:[/b] Gamigin has a high intelligence and pretty good physical endurance, but he lacks any real physical power, and has a weakness to very strong scents.
[b]Attitude Towards Humans:[/b] Towards the intellectual humans, Gamigin is somewhat friendly and likes to converse with them. He loves to see what kinds of things humans can come up with. Towards the stupider ones, though, he couldn't care less about them and will, when bored, toy with their heads.
[b]Novelization?:[/b] As long as I get to read it.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Soul Legacy - Amon][b]Name:[/b] Amon
[b]Age:[/b] By his apperance, he looks to be 35.
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Appearance:[/b]

HUMAN FORM: 6'2 and muscular. His eye's burn dark red and his hair is pitch black. He looks to be 35, so he blends in with the crowds of human that flock through the street every passing hour. He has a scar across his left eye that he gained from once fighting an exorcist.

DEMON FORM: Amon has the body of a wolf and the tail of a serpant. He can stand on his hind legs and stand at 8 foot. He vomits fire out of his mouth for vast damage on any enemys that step his way.

[b]Personality:[/b] Dark and vivid. The same in either the spiritual or human world. He only talks to the demons in the spiritual world, and not in the human world; mearly not to give themselves away. He doesn't really care about his allies or enemys, and is always prepared to spit in there faces if they give him some back talk. His intelligence surpasses others but he seems only to be smart when it is needed. The rest of the time hes just more concentrative on being bulk and destructive. He will shadow others if they think of him too lightly and is ready to 'play the game' if anyone asks for it. To play the part, hes sometimes more light hearted to humans, especially exorcists, to trick them into being his friends. He then kills them at the opertune moment.
[b]Abilities:[/b] Amon can tell things past and future, but the future visions are vivid and come to him unexpectadly, he can not control it. He has the power in his demon form to spit fire from his mouth.
[b]Strengths and Weaknesses:[/b] He is very bulk and very quick. His intelligence makes him confuse humans. But due to his nature, he can be suduced into being under the control of a mage and he also can think too quickly and slip up. He reacts horribly towards holy water, more vile then other demons.
[b]Attitude Towards Humans:[/b] As all other demons he hates them. But if he finds devil worshipers he is willing to take them as his followers and allies, and not just the demons. He fell in love with a human once, but not much is said about that anymore. Because of this, he is now spiteful against Love and Happiness.
[b]Novelization?:[/b] Yes.

(((For now, don't. We're sticking with one character per person for now.)))

 

1) You've used the name Akihiko a lot, I've noticed. That counts as expying, so I recommend you choose another one. How about Akio (秋生) or Akito (秋人)? They both have the character for "fall" in them.

2) Last names of a different ethnicity is usually a Sue-ish trait. Try a different one.

3) The school has a uniform (I'll try to provide a reference,) so the clothes he listed would be casual type. However, you seem to lack details. Add more about his body type, his skin color, the type of jeans, the style of shirt, etc. There's a lot of little details there that you can add.

4) The personality seems rather vague. Playing with fire isn't exactly a recreational activity, so you might wanna go into a bit more detail about that incident. Also, this is anime-realism, so the American descent doesn't need to explain the blond hair. I might suggest removing that. Add a bit more, and that should be good for that section.

5) Now that I think of it, wouldn't an adopted child take on the surname of the parents?

6) A shakujo might fit his personality well. It's a real warrior-monk kinda thing. If you like that, add some unique things and features to spruce it up.

7) It's nice that he has some physical strengths and weaknesses, but add some about his personality. Does he work well with others, or is he more submissive? There are a lot of tihngs you could possibly add here.

BUMP, keeping this thread alive.

[fenrir]

Name: Takashi Komemuura

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Appearance: He has unkempt dark brown hair, with some chin stubble, and a bang falling near his eye. He also has yellow eyes, and is lightly tanned. His arm muscles are a bit larger than an average teen's. He's usually always wearing his metallic grey hoodie, with his navy jeans. He generally has black loafers on, and usually has a lax face.

Personality: At first glance, he seems lazy, with a sarcastic nature. When motivated, he does have a headstrong nature, and prefers to get it over with. He is analyzing, and calm in any situation. Most foes, will be taken back by his lax look, and underestimate him to a degree. He really doesn't like to show off, preferring to keep it less flashy.

Backstory Fragments: He's had an average life, nothing special. He's had a bad record in middle school, due to his sarcasm often enraging students. When he was 10, he was very outgoing, but as he hit 12 his outgoing personality sort of died down.

Exorcism Weapon: A totem pole, it's about as tall as him with a relatively short 'hilt' sticking out of the bottom for easier use. The bottom head is a , the middle a Kitsune, and the top an Oni. Takashi says he isn't sure, but most likely it's made form Sakura. Which is rare.

Strengths and Weaknesses: He isn't the type to be shaken easily so openings are generally hard to come by, unless he mishandles his weapon. That being said, if anyone ever does manage to get him emotional he will start to make more mistakes. Also, since he doesn't talk much to people, or try to socialize, people don't trust him as often.

Hey Rinne! accept these people!

Hey Rinne! accept these people!

 

I do have a life offline' date=' y'know. >.> Which for the last three hours involved fixing my $150 headphones, then giving up and running off to get a free replacement.

 

[spoiler=Javier']

1) Heuun Gorohan is definitely not a Japanese name. I'll PM you some suggestions, because I wanna know what kinda name meanings you wanna work with.

2) 16's too old for a freshman. Hell, I'm turning 16 this year, and I'm a sophomore. Fix that, please.

3) Drop the height just a bit. I don't think that a freshman would be that height.

4) "Mysterious marking" is almost always a sign of a Sue. Remove it, or go into more detail.

5) If he's Japanese, then a "foreign Japanese symbol" isn't exactly foreign. Same as above; remove or detail it.

6) Shyness is a major part of a person's personality, and with the physical description, it doesn't seem to fit. Edit, or explain.

7) Both parents dying is a bit cliche, and we already have a foster child involved.

8) Why would some teenage punks just go and stab him, a seemingly-peaceful and studious boy, in the eye for seemingly no reason? Please explain why.

9) Nunchaku aren't exactly something that could be used for exorcisms; there's really no spiritual equivalent. I'll PM you some ideas. Also, I don't think a father would entrust a five-year-old with a weapon.

10) The sensing thing has got to go; the way that "magic" works in this RP wouldn't allow that. I'll explain later.

11) There's already one character who's weak in the legs. Maybe try something else?

[spoiler=Fenrir]1) I assume "Komemuura" is a typo. xD

2) So he's like Starrk? Interesting, but you might want to reconsider the headstrong-ness; it's a bit at odds.

3) Maybe a bit more on the backstory? Currently we don't know anything about his parents or family situation.

4) The totem pole is interesting, but I don't know how he uses it. Would it be like a kanabo, can it summon shikigami, etc, etc. Just need to know how he uses it.

5) A bit more on physical strengths and weaknesses, please.

 

 

There. I'm almost done with my character, BTW.

[fenrir]

[spoiler=Fenrir]1) I assume "Komemuura" is a typo. xD In a way' date=' I honestly couldn't think of a last name, so I took Komamura, and 'edited' it. xD Any recommendations?[/b']

2) So he's like Starrk? Interesting, but you might want to reconsider the headstrong-ness; it's a bit at odds. I actually based him off both Starkk and Shunsui, hence the Oni's. But ya, I'll just take out the headstrong part.

3) Maybe a bit more on the backstory? Currently we don't know anything about his parents or family situation. Edited.

4) The totem pole is interesting, but I don't know how he uses it. Would it be like a kanabo, can it summon shikigami, etc, etc. Just need to know how he uses it. Well, the Shikigami sounds interesting.

5) A bit more on physical strengths and weaknesses, please. Done

 

 

Name: Takashi Komemuura

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Appearance: He has unkempt dark brown hair, with some chin stubble, and a bang falling near his eye. He also has yellow eyes, and is lightly tanned. His arm muscles are a bit larger than an average teen's. He's usually always wearing his metallic grey hoodie, with his navy jeans. He generally has black loafers on, and usually has a lax face.

Personality: At first glance, he seems lazy, with a sarcastic nature. He is analyzing, and calm in any situation. Most foes, will be taken back by his lax look, and underestimate him to a degree. He really doesn't like to show off, preferring to keep it less flashy.

Backstory Fragments: He's had an average life, nothing special. He's had a bad record in middle school, due to his sarcasm often enraging students. When he was 10, he was very outgoing, but as he hit 12 his outgoing personality sort of died down. Currently, his parents have left him in Japan seeing as they trust him enough to be alone. They are apparently on a cruise, seeing the world.

Exorcism Weapon: A totem pole, it's about as tall as him with a relatively short 'hilt' sticking out of the bottom for easier use. The bottom head is a , the middle a Kitsune, and the top an Oni. Takashi says he isn't sure, but most likely it's made form Sakura. Which is rare. He uses it like a blunt weapon, literally swinging it at an enemy's head. Also, depending on how he slams it into the ground, he summon a Shikigami. If he plants it with the hilt down, it can act as a center base being able to sense Demons. When a Demon draws near, the Totem starts to shake, and depending on how fast it's shaking, the closer the Demoni.

Strengths and Weaknesses: He isn't the type to be shaken easily so openings are generally hard to come by, unless he mishandles his weapon. Since his arms are well developed, he is quite strong. Of course, he isn't the fastest. That being said, if anyone ever does manage to get him emotional he will start to make more mistakes. Also, since he doesn't talk much to people, or try to socialize, people don't trust him as often.

ok well first of all I spotted you online for like 2 hours checking out the RP section -_-

And WTF!? Why would you buy 150$ headphones when you can get 2 dollor ones that are fine? >_>

[bury the year]

I've put up my app and the application for Shadius and his students. If you're with him, use the Demon one.

[shadowferret]

Name: Gamigin

 

Age: 14, 654 years old

 

Gender: Male

 

Appearance: Gamigin's appearances can vary depending on how he wants to look, but he has two formes he likes to use often.

 

HUMAN FORME:

As a human, Gamigin has short blonde hair and vivid blue eyes. His skin is pale, as if he hasn't seen sunlight ever in his life. His human forme resembles that of a 24 year old Irishman, and he has a thin body that doesn't look very muscley. Rather tall, Gamigin's human forme stands at about 5'11". The clothes he wears vary, but usually he's into wearing 80's clothes.

 

DEMON FORME:

As a Demon, Gamigin resembles a minotaur. Instead of having the normal horns, though, he has antlers like a deer's. His skin is a deep shade of blue, somewhat resembling the colour of ice, and random patches of fur along his arms and legs are a bright red. Otherwise, he stands at 7 feet tall, but still lacks a lot of muscle mass like his human forme.

 

Personality: Gamigin is a very mischievous person. Though he is mostly kind to the few that he cares about, he likes to steal a lot and tends to be just a little manipulative. Even to the people he's closest to, he doesn't really show his complete personality to them. This closed-off aspect of his personality could be from living a long life with other demons who aren't exactly trustworthy. With the more intelligent humans, Gamigin is very friendly and enjoys conversing with them, but with the stupider ones he simply toys with them and looks down on them. When associating with demons, however, Gamigin is very cold and calculating, and never talks to all but a few of them. There are one or two he likes to hold conversations with, but to every other demon he simply stays silent and gives them the cold shoulder.

 

Abilities: Gamigin comes off as someone friendly while in his human forme, meaning it's easier for other humans to trust him rather quickly. This isn't really a demonic ability, but more a character trait of his. He can also slightly muddle someone's thoughts, making it harder for them to think and concentrate. This ability isn't too strong, really, but can lead to slight, annoying headaches on the victim. Additionally, Gamigin can lower the temperature of an object as well as the air around him, even to the point of freezing into solid ice.

 

Strengths and Weaknesses: Gamigin has a high intelligence and pretty good physical endurance, but he lacks any real physical power, and has a weakness to very strong scents.

 

Attitude Towards Humans: Towards the intellectual humans, Gamigin is somewhat friendly and likes to converse with them. He loves to see what kinds of things humans can come up with. Towards the stupider ones, though, he couldn't care less about them and will, when bored, toy with their heads.

 

Novelization?: As long as I get to read it.

[Coyote Starrk¤]

Ok I'll do my App.

 

Name: Purson

Age: Unknown

Gender: Male

Appearance: Purson has two forms. He can be whatever he likes but these two are what he mostly uses.

 

HUMAN FORM :

He has blue long hair and blue eyes. He is 5'9 feet tall. When he is in his Human form he looks like his 15. He wear's black shirt and black tight peants. He has some muscals on his human form. But he can't use his powers at full power when he is in his human form.

 

DEMON FORM:

In his demon form he look's like a old man. He has long grey hair and long grey beard. He has a horn on his head. He has huge muscles and he is very strong. He has a red staff too. His legs are cheetas and he can run fast with them. He is 9'9 feet tall.

 

Personality: Usually when he is at his home aka Hell he is calm and such. When somebody of his men mess up he gets very angry and banishes them. When he sees a human he most likely will kill them and then his anger get's out of control.

Abilities: In his Demon form he can shoot fire out of his staff & he can shoot fire from his mouth. He can use telekinises. And in his human form he can only use telekinises for short period.

Strengths and Weaknesses: He is very strong against long ranged attacks. He is very fast and very strong so he can make a good combo out of it. His main weakness is water. And he is scared of dogs.

Attitude Towards Humans: Hate's them. Tries to kill them any way possible.

Novelization?: Yes

[Soul Legacy]

Name: Amon

Age: By his apperance, he looks to be 35.

Gender: Male

Appearance:

 

HUMAN FORM: 6'11 and muscular. His eye's burn dark red and his hair is pitch black. He looks to be 35, so he blends in with the crowds of human that flock through the street every passing hour. He has a scar across his left eye that he gained from once fighting an exorcist. He also has a tatto on his back; the seal of Amon.

 

DEMON FORM: Amon has the body of a wolf and the tail of a serpant. He can stand on his hind legs and stand at 8 foot. He vomits fire out of his mouth for vast damage on any enemys that step his way.

 

Personality: Dark and vivid. The same in either the spiritual or human world. He only talks to the demons in the spiritual world, and not in the human world; mearly not to give themselves away. He doesn't really care about his allies or enemys, and is always prepared to spit in there faces if they give him some back talk. His intelligence surpasses others but he seems only to be smart when it is needed. The rest of the time hes just more concentrative on being bulk and destructive.

Abilities: Can teleport between places. He can also tell things past and future, but the future visions are vivid. He has the power in his demon form to spit fire from his mouth and in his human form can spit acid on a humans face if they provoke him.

Strengths and Weaknesses: He is very bulk and very quick. His intelligence makes him confuse humans. But due to his nature, he can be suduced into being under the control of a mage and he also can think too quickly and slip up. He reacts horribly towards holy water, more vile then other demons.

Attitude Towards Humans: As all other demons he hates them. But if he finds devil worshipers he is willing to take them as his followers and allies, and not just the demons. He fell in love with a human once, but not much is said about that anymore.

Novelization?: Yes.

 

I looked him up. He does have the ability to spit fire from his mouth and he can see past and future, but to be fair I added in that his future visions were only vivid. I basically based it off the real demon and added some little bits of my own in, like the falling in love with the human ect.

[Namo™]

BUMP! Keeping this Teaching thread alive -_-

[Guest]

Ok guys Rinne is going to help with the unique factors of a application while I handle the basics.

 

 

When you fill out the parts of a application you should always use full sentences. Yes I know its very very short but this is the first piece of advice since it does help your writing if you get into a habit of writing good full sentences.
