ListenToLife Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yep, doesn't seem like a B*tch at all. Seems like a nice person. And my character might end up getting along well with her since she's musically inclined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Red Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 she is, as long as she has a good day that is yay for somewhat inappropriate teacher/student friendships, it's quite perfect if she gets along very well with a student (especially a male one) though as it opens up for more vicious rumours about her to spread throughout the school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ListenToLife Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Probably not a full fledged friendship at the beginning, but perhaps a somewhat minor favouritism. Perhaps lasting conversations that teachers dont usually have with students. And it'd be especially perfect for rumours if it's the student no-one wants to know.

Master Red Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Of course not Friendships always develop over time, but if it's noticeable that she spends more time with a certain student (especially a male one) it's likely that rumours will develop. Also edited her powers to include enhanced charisma (also automatic and incontrollable) as well as including some of her favourite bands/artists (and musical skills) in the other info section though please bare with me as I add her favourite songs of that artist in a hyperlink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Red Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 oh, I see haha. I was thinking in the lines of major handicap such as being mute or have an illness.

ListenToLife Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Same thing really. And it'll probably affect her more than Adrian's illness affects him at the present moment. Psychologically, at any rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Red Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah, I just don't consider her handicapped now as she doesn't [i]really[/i] have her powers now. They are really weak so it takes a long time before it actually kills the poor sods off. She's dealing with depression now so I can't even begin to think of what she'll be like when she finds out what [i]wonderful[/i] power she's been 'blessed' with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is very fond of animals and animals enjoy being around him due to his friendly personality. If something gets on his nerves, he will start to act angrier than usual. He is also very sociable, but only when he is around friends. When he is around people he doesn't know, he acts nervous and shy. He is level-headed and smart. He will try to find a logical reason for something before jumping to the illogical. [b]Biography:[/b] Ashe lived a normal childhood. He discovered his powers at a young age. Instead of shunning him, his town accepted him for who he was. He could barely maintain a flame ,so he decided to go on a journey to train and develop his powers. He first started training his pyrokinesis, which he thought was the easiest to train. During his training, Ashe nearly started a forest fire while trying to make a large, but a someone like him stopped the fire from spreading. He said he would help Ashe awaken and develop his powers. This man taught Ashe alchemy and he became very proficient at it. When he asked Ashe what was his right hand's power, it nearly killed them both. Soon enough, Ashe's training with the man was complete. Ashe went to train some more and live in seclusion as a rogue. He eventually became a teacher at the school for people like him. [b]Fears: [/b](Xenophobia) Fear of the unknown or unfamiliar [b]Appearance:[/b] [spoiler=][img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--l3S-5JKIYw/Tga4Udpz6HI/AAAAAAAABQY/3bAO9adQFfg/s640/crying+anime+boy+2.jpg[/img][/spoiler] Ashe black hair and piercing red eyes. His eyes usually don't show emotion, even when his face does. He wears a black trench coat, a black shirt, and jeans. He has a pair of goggles hanging around his neck. He wears a sliver skull earrings and a black and silver fingerless glove that stretches up his forearm on his right hand. [u][b][u]Combat Information[/u][/b][/u] [b]Appearance:[/b] Ashe has several scars and burn marks from his training. He has a large scar stretching the top of his neck to his right thigh from the first time he used his right hand's power. His scar glows whenever he uses his right hand's power. His red eyes glows when he uses his blue flames. When he is in an intense battle, his body emanates heat and his right hand glows like a sun about to go supernova. [b]Weapon:[/b] Ashe has a broad sword that he carries on his back that is attached by a small chain. His blade acts as an amplifier for his powers. He also has two yo-yos that are made of a durable metal that he uses for mid-range attacks. Ashe wears a glove to limit his right hand's power. He also carries several knives, daggers, and shurikans. He is a master at hand-to-hand combat. [b]Abilities/Technique(s):[/b] Ashe is very proficient in his flame and alchemy powers. He has yet to completely master his right hand's power. Pyrokinesis: He is able to manipulate and control fire at will. He can create large fireballs and columns of flame with ease. He has an unusual of snapping his fingers when he launches his fire. One of his more powerful techniques is creating several large pillars of flame that surround the area and have the intent to cage the opponent in an inferno and destroy them. He can wrap himself in a cloak of flames for extra defensive and offensive capabilities. Ashe has three types of flames: orange, blue, and black. Orange is his is basic flame. Blue is his second most powerful flame and is more explosive. Black is his most powerful and most destructive flame. He rarely uses his black flames because they are very dangerous. Right hand's power: This power is very powerful, but he can't control it very well. He can view people's dreams and manipulate them to a small extend. Ashe can only use two powers without tiring. One of them is creating a skateboard that can fly for short and long distance travel. The second is that he can create black lightning that surrounds his hands. When he delivers a punch, he can send the lightning through his opponents body, causing severe internal damage.

Master Red Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 :L that's odd. Copypasta, hopefully it works when it's reposted :S [size=3][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#484848][Spoiler=Personal Information][/color] [color=#484848][b]Character Name:[/b] Gabrielle Belvedere[/color] [b][color=#484848]Gender:[/color][/b][color=#484848] Female[/color] [b][color=#484848]Age:[/color][/b][color=#484848]29[/color] [color=#484848][Spoiler=Personality] [/color] The main thing to note about Gabrielle is that she has her good days and she has her bad days, something students and staff have become accustomed to. A 'bad day' would mean that she's more reserved and silent, being slightly vacant as well as being more emotional. These days she can lash out at people over the smallest things (but she always apologises afterwards, or the following day), and silly little things such as breaking the tip of her pencil while writing can cause her to start bawling her eyes out. People tend to be wary of her on these days as to not set her off, especially the students as they don't want to risk detention. On her good days Gabrielle is a very cheerful individual, smiling and being pleasant to everyone (even if they don't really deserve it). Most of it is a facade of course, but she has found that faking happiness can sometimes trick her into thinking that she really is happy with her life. She enjoys teaching, even though some students can be horrible to her, and takes a lot of pride in her work. Even on her bad days she seems to get a little bit happier in the classroom, possibly as she's teaching music which is a passion of hers, but she also claims that nothing makes her happier than the look in a student's eyes as they figure something out that they didn't understand before, or manage to play a whole piece on an instrument without messing up. Many students like her, even though she can be snappy on a bad day, as she doesn't tend to give out detention and that she really takes her time and shows patience with struggling students. Many students barely see her as a teacher (which some say isn't a good thing) as she's 'kind of cool'. She has an eclectic music taste, meaning she often knows the favourite bands of her pupils as well as following a lot of the reality TV-shows and TV series, so she understands and sometimes even gets involved in class room chatter (sometimes a bit too involved). However, the fact that she looks quite young could possibly have a part in the fact that the students relate more to her as well. Her love for reality TV is something that she considers a guilty pleasure, as she really is 'too old' to be watching such 'junk', which she often jokes about.[/font][/size] [size=3][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][/Spoiler] [color=#484848][Spoiler=Biography] Gabrielle seems to be the unluckiest woman ever when it comes to love as anybody she has ever been in a long term relationship with has died tragically from heart failure, stroke or other natural causes, always after having been together for about two or three years. While continuously losing the people she loves has scarred her, she also had to deal with nasty rumours of her killing her lovers off for money or other gains, and after the third (and final) man involved with her died the police even got involved, making it all the more traumatic for her. Of course she got let off as there was no proof of involvement in any of the deaths, but the rumours are still there. The whispers in the teacher's lounge and corridors at school, the sudden silence of neighbours when she walks by and students writing 'the black widow' after her name on papers that are handed in. Due to the many traumatic events concerning people she has loved, Gabrielle has completely given up on love and intimacy has gone from being something beautiful to being something she is absolutely terrified of as intimacy is something that she has now started to connect to death. She is a very damaged woman and has been seeing a psychiatrist and taking medication for several years to cope with her increasing depression (and more recently her fear of intimacy). Her depression along with the deaths of her lovers is something that has driven most of her friends away from her gradually. But she still has some friends that have stood by her as well as some people at work that at least are friendly to her and don't judge her for the rumours that surround her. While suicide was something that Gabrielle contemplated on several times, she couldn't go through with it. Even though she wasn't very happy with her life she still wanted to live and she still holds on to the hope that she'll one day find a way to be truly happy again, whether that happiness is together with someone or not.[/color][/font][/size] [size=3][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#484848][/Spoiler][/color] [b][color=#484848]Fears: [/color][/b][color=#484848]Intimacy (or rather her own powers), Spiders[/color] [Spoiler="Appearance"] While Gabrielle is nearly thirty years old she doesn't look a day over twenty, something that causes much distraught to other women around her and adds to the whispering and remarks made about her. Many of the older teachers also have an issue with her not maintaining a 'proper' attitude and appearance, coming to work in casual clothes as well as having her hair dyed in a pale rainbow shade. Vicious rumours say that the only reason to why she gets away with dressing the way she does is because she's pretty and the headmaster has an eye for her, but Gabrielle just finds these ridiculous. The reason to why she gets away with dressing the way she does is because it doesn't state anywhere in their contracts that they are obliged to buttoned shirts, jackets and trousers. She feels the most comfortable wearing a t-shirt (often band/artist merch), a skirt or a pair of comfy jeans with a pair of flats, and she has stated several times that she 'won't be some kind of office monkey'. Due to her young looks and personal style she was often mistaken as a student when she first started working at Somnium High, which still happens on occasion with new staff or substitutes. Gabrielle just laughs this off though and finds it both flattering and entertaining. Though she does find it annoying that she still gets ID'd whenever she goes out or buys alcohol, even getting accused of having a fake ID every now and then because she simply 'can't be 29 years old!'. Her good looks are a minor issue for Gabrielle however, not only for causing other women some jealousy, as it leads to her often being pursued by men. Which doesn't go very well with her developed fear of intimacy. To top it off she also becomes the teacher crush and fantasy of many students, and while this is something she's not usually bothered by (as it is very common and everybody has fantasies) there have been 'incidents' of students stalking her, once even ending up with a boy getting expelled. [Spoiler=Image, Height and Weight] [img]http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh47/jensklots/sadanimegirlwithbrownhair2.jpg[/img] [b]- height:[/b] 5'7" / 170cm.[/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][b]- weight:[/b] 138lbs / 63kg. [/Spoiler] [/Spoiler][/font][/size] [size=3][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][/Spoiler] [color=#484848][Spoiler=Combat Information][/color] [b][color=#484848]Abilities/Technique(s): Succubus[/color][/b] [color=#484848]Gabrielle's power, or curse rather, is the 'kiss of death' meaning that anybody she locks lips with will rapidly lose their life force. And as if it wasn't enough that kissing someone on the lips will gradually kill them, a kiss on the cheek or another part of the body will burn the 'victim' badly, causing blisters and burns on whatever part of their body her lips have touched. These powers are automatic and incontrollable, meaning that she will cause harm to anybody she kisses whether she intends to or not.[/color][/font][/size] [size=3][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#484848]While her power is horrible it does come with a few perks. Kissing someone will, as stated earlier, increase her own energy and heal her but she won't grow younger from it. However, thanks to her power her body will never age and she will never gain or lose weight. She is still susceptible to diseases and injuries though and no amount of kisses will ever be able to restore a lost limb or organ. Simply put, she will never die from old age, but diseases and bodily harm both effect her and kill her.[/color] The final part of Gabrielle's power is enhanced charisma. Her body naturally exudes a scentless pheromone which makes people, and particularly men, more likely to agree with her or do her favours. It's comparable to a very mild form of hypnotic suggestion as anyone affected by the pheromones still maintains self-control but will still have an urge to help her out and 'make her happy'. [/Spoiler] [color=#484848][Spoiler=Other Information] Gabrielle carries a stun gun and a rape whistle at all times, either in one of her bags or 'on her' (rape whistle on a strap around her neck and stun gun on her belt. She decided to purchase these items after the whole 'stalking incident' that occurred a couple of years ago and she is very particular about always having these with her. She can play the piano/keyboard very well and she has basic knowledge how to play a plethora of other instruments thanks to her schooling as a music teacher. Her singing voice isn't heavenly but she can still sing well. While her taste in music is very eclectic, her favourite bands and artists include: [url="http://youtu.be/1G4isv_Fylg"]Coldplay[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/JTG3RJLe3GQ"]Eli Lieb[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/MEkS_mQ0GlI"]Kerli[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/pb9e3RAU_Lg"]Maria Mena[/url],[url="http://youtu.be/OqPVz101nd0"] Muse[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/1c8yYhFZZz4"]Natalia Kills[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/HrihnDl2JQ4"]Owl City[/url] and [url="http://youtu.be/-pxRXP3w-sQ"]Regina Spektor[/url] [/Spoiler][/color][/font][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason to why she gets away with dressing the way she does is because it doesn't state anywhere in their contracts that they are obliged to buttoned shirts, jackets and trousers. She feels the most comfortable wearing a t-shirt (often band/artist merch), a skirt or a pair of comfy jeans with a pair of flats, and she has stated several times that she 'won't be some kind of office monkey'. Due to her young looks and personal style she was often mistaken as a student when she first started working at Somnium High, which still happens on occasion with new staff or substitutes. Gabrielle just laughs this off though and finds it both flattering and entertaining. Though she does find it annoying that she still gets ID'd whenever she goes out or buys alcohol, even getting accused of having a fake ID every now and then because she simply 'can't be 29 years old!'. Her good looks are a minor issue for Gabrielle however, not only for causing other women some jealousy, as it leads to her often being pursued by men. Which doesn't go very well with her developed fear of intimacy. To top it off she also becomes the teacher crush and fantasy of many students, and while this is something she's not usually bothered by (as it is very common and everybody has fantasies) there have been 'incidents' of students stalking her, once even ending up with a boy getting expelled.

[/Spoiler] [/Spoiler] [/Spoiler] [color=#484848][Spoiler=Combat Information][/color] [b][color=#484848]Abilities/Technique(s): Succubus[/color][/b] [color=#484848]Gabrielle's power, or curse rather, is the 'kiss of death' meaning that anybody she locks lips with will rapidly lose their life force. And as if it wasn't enough that kissing someone on the lips will gradually kill them, a kiss on the cheek or another part of the body will burn the 'victim' badly, causing blisters and burns on whatever part of their body her lips have touched. These powers are automatic and incontrollable, meaning that she will cause harm to anybody she kisses whether she intends to or not.[/color][/font][/size] [size=3][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][font=times new roman,times,serif][color=#484848]While her power is horrible it does come with a few perks. Kissing someone will, as stated earlier, increase her own energy and heal her but she won't grow younger from it. However, thanks to her power her body will never age and she will never gain or lose weight. She is still susceptible to diseases and injuries though and no amount of kisses will ever be able to restore a lost limb or organ. Simply put, she will never die from old age, but diseases and bodily harm both effect her and kill her.[/color] The final part of Gabrielle's power is enhanced charisma. Her body naturally exudes a scentless pheromone which makes people, and particularly men, more likely to agree with her or do her favours. It's comparable to a very mild form of hypnotic suggestion as anyone affected by the pheromones still maintains self-control but will still have an urge to help her out and 'make her happy'. [/Spoiler][/font][/size] [color=#484848][size=4][font=times new roman,times,serif][Spoiler=Other Information] Gabrielle carries a stun gun and a rape whistle at all times, either in one of her bags or 'on her' (rape whistle on a strap around her neck and stun gun on her belt. She decided to purchase these items after the whole 'stalking incident' that occurred a couple of years ago and she is very particular about always having these with her. She can play the piano/keyboard very well and she has basic knowledge how to play a plethora of other instruments thanks to her schooling as a music teacher. Her singing voice isn't heavenly but she can still sing well. While her taste in music is very eclectic, her favourite bands and artists include: [url="http://youtu.be/1G4isv_Fylg"]Coldplay[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/JTG3RJLe3GQ"]Eli Lieb[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/MEkS_mQ0GlI"]Kerli[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/pb9e3RAU_Lg"]Maria Mena[/url],[url="http://youtu.be/OqPVz101nd0"] Muse[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/1c8yYhFZZz4"]Natalia Kills[/url], [url="http://youtu.be/HrihnDl2JQ4"]Owl City[/url] and [url="http://youtu.be/-pxRXP3w-sQ"]Regina Spektor[/url][/font][/size] [/Spoiler][/color][/font][/size] [/quote] accepted Weird I still can't see it, but when I quote it everything appears.

Master Red Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 that's really weird, I can open all of the spoilers and all the info is there :L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piercer of the Heavens Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Well I checked the spoilers on my phone and they work fine there too. I think it's just my laptop that is acting weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Red Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Ah well good, so the edits I made to her powers were a-ok then? Was a bit worried that she might get too many powers or something (though I figured I'd give her another little perk given she is going to hate her life when she 'awakens') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piercer of the Heavens Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah they're ok. Looks like everything is going smoothly right now, so I may start the RP tomorrow. Then again nothing goes as planned for me. Also I might as well say this now. This RP takes place a little after half-way into the school year. So your characters don't need to be strangers. Just needed to say this so you guys can see if the characters want to be friends already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bad Pennar Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 My character is a somewhat Musically-inclined character, but she's scared of being touched by others, rather than having any real handicap Since Nancy prefers to be alone, She'll have no friends. She's sorta hard to make friends with in the first place anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
