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

[Aix]

IC

 

[hr]With the abolition of nobility and Areas as well as the fall of the 99th Emperor of Britannia, the Holy Britannian Empire became a much kinder and peaceful place to live. Empress Nunnally vi Britannia proved to be a compassionate monarch, unlike the tyrants of the past, but some viewed her good will as an opportunity to break free of Britannia completely. Half a year after the completion of the Zero Requiem, separatists began to act. The former Areas wished to break free completely of Britannian rule and be established as their own nations and be subject to their own rule.When their petitions were denied, they then refused compromises and turned to violent means of protest and outright rebellion. They managed to obtain Knightmare Frames and other weaponry and forcefully took over government structures and held important figures hostage.

----------
A tall, thin, young man in his teenage years, of Oriental descent, walked into the large government building which served as the temporary residence of the Royal Family as the Palace was being rebuilt and would take at least another year. He came up to the front lobby desk and kindly asked the woman working there to allow him to see the Empress. She creased her eyebrows, puzzled. “Sir, one cannot simply ask to--” The teen’s red eyes flickered for a moment and she stopped. “With pleasure, my lord,” she said and she picked up the phone. The teen smiled graciously and returned his orange contact lenses onto his eyes.

Not much later, the young man found himself facing the Empress in person. Beside her was her brother, Prince Schneizel, and on the other side: the savior of the world, Zero himself. The young man regarded them coolly, he was standing in front of some of the most important people in the world. It was a long moment before he spoke. “My name is Jiang Kongming, but that is of little importance,” he said. “I can help you with the crisis you are facing right now. I know why the separatist organizations are acting so and I am here to help this case come to a resolution, but I request the aid of Britannia and... to reform the Black Knights.”

 

[hr][spoiler=Plot]For half a year, the world was at peace. The Zero Requiem was successful in directing people’s minds and hopes towards the future, to a better, more peaceful, world and focus everyone on solving problems such as world hunger and poverty rather than creating more problems with war.
But such happiness could not, would not, last. The peace within Britannia is broken again as the former areas wish to obtain independence and govern themselves. That in itself, perhaps, may not have been a terrible thing or a great problem, but Britannia caught upon more sinister and selfish workings as some wished to obtain power for themselves. They refused to separate but offered compromises instead. Those were completely denied by the separatists. What was even more strange was that some that appeared to be about to accept abruptly disappeared and were replaced by one who was not so eager.
There is a powerful organisation at work with the intent to take over the world as Lelouch had done. Their leader is called K.K. (pronounced K2), an immortal woman, completely and utterly incapable of dying, and also has the ability to grant the Geass to her subordinates.
The Empress, Nunnally vi Britannia, has called the Black Knights together, with new recruits, and they are to work under Zero to bring this threat to light and to justice. It’s time for you to join Lelouch’s legacy and protect the peace which he died to create![/spoiler][hr][spoiler=The Geass]Characters will not have the Geass unless you can create some REALLY GOOD explanation as to why you have it. I will actually not mind everyone having the Geass
----------
What is the Geass? It is a power which manifests in one’s eyes, taking the form of a red eye with a bird-like symbol (see below). At first, it only manifests in one eye and only shows up when the user wants to use it, but later on it shows up in both eyes and becomes permanent, one cannot turn it off.
----------
Many Geass require eye contact to activate, looking through glass or reflecting through a mirror counts, however, looking through a video feed will not. Though, there are some which do not require eye contact such as Mao’s which is always active and Rolo’s which simply affects everyone around him.
----------
The Geass manifests one’s wishes, such as Lelouch’s, which made anyone obey him, reflected his manipulative desire while C.C.’s (before she became immortal) reflected her desire to be loved and made everyone around her fall in love with her. Geass can do pretty much anything.[spoiler=The Code]Little is known about it, but it is what renders one completely immortal (cannot die of age, cannot be killed, limits are unknown) and unable to be affected by the Geass and allows one to grant the Geass. It also gives one a mysterious ability to induce a hallucinatory trance upon contact with a person (either direct or indirect, though not through the ground). Once one has obtained the Geass in both eyes, a person with the Code can grant that person his/her Code, but it will result in him/her dying. I will consider the possibility of a maximum of one immortal player character, but very very likely not as having the Code would be more or less godmodding, though perhaps as the RP progresses someone may obtain the Code (don’t worry, I won’t make my character get it).[/spoiler][/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Technology/Weapons]If you want pictures and/or more details, it would kill you to Google it.[hr][spoiler=Knightmares/Mechs]Okay, Mechs in Code Geass are called Knightmare Frames. The most recent mass-produced Britannian model would be the Seventh Generation Knightmare Frame called Vincent (link has specs). Everyone will get a Knightmare Frame to start, because this is how people in Code Geass generally fight. I suppose it IS possible to fight outside a mech, as Suzaku was able to dodge bullets while running straight at a Knightmare. Custom Models are also possible, they are often much, much more powerful than an ordinary one. Notable examples include Kallen’s Guren and Suzaku’s Lancelot. It shouldn’t be too much of a stretch to have a Custom, but your character has to be someone important or rich enough for the expensive manufacturing and custom designing.[/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Sakuradite Weapons]Sakuradite is a pink mineral with extremely explosive properties and it is what powers Knightmare Frames and other weapons, including the F.L.E.I.J.A. which is a massive controlled bomb which rivals a nuclear bomb. Sakuradite can also be used to shoot lasers and whatnot.[/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Shield and Float System]Shield System is simply a colored Force Field that consumes battery. Large ones have large polygonal patterns.
The Float System is some sort of unexplained anti-Gravity. It appears the same as a shield and simply allows one to defy gravity.[/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Other Weapons]There are machine guns, rockets, explosives. What else do you need? Every weapon we have today (with the exception of nuclear weapons) are in Code Geass. Radioactivity is also a weapon.[/spoiler][hr][spoiler='Shadowhawk Carrier']The Shadowhawk Carrier is a massive stealth ship, shaped like a giant version of a stealth bomber, able to carry up to one hundred and fifty Knightmares and 1000 men. It uses a massive Light Manipulation Field and Sound Containment Field and is invisible to both eyes and radar, except upon very close scrutiny, which then, small amounts of refraction and echoes can be heard.

The Shadowhawk Carrier currently belonging to the Black Knights is well furnished and has a large ballroom area for parties, equipped with an extensive sound system.

[spoiler='Ballroom']Looks like this, except much bigger and has a high, arched ceiling.

Empire of Britannia (blue)

United Federation of Nations (orange)

USLR - United Latin Socialist Republics (red)

Lusophone Alliance (pink) - Consisting of the states of Brasil, Portugal, Cabo Verde, Angola, and São Tomé & Príncipe, as well as the territory of Santa Helena, the only thing the Lusophone Alliance has going for it right now is a common language. Scattered land and constant pressure from Britannia means their forecast is bleak if the great Empire decides to apply a bit more force in getting what they want.

Greater Maghreb (purple)

Middle Eastern Federation (green)

Aryan States (dark grey)

British Gold Coast (light blue) - A British puppet state in every sense of the word, the Gold Coast region is an "experiment" by the Empire to see how states would react to looser government control. So far they've been getting positive results, as the region is responsible for a good portion of Britannia's raw materials.

Independent States (light grey) - Norway, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Ukraine, Senegambia, Mali, Niger, Tchad, Cameroon, Guinea, and Australia. These are all states that for one reason or another didn't ally with another upon separation, instead trying to eke out an existence by themselves. Their quality of living varies greatly - while the Scandinavian countries and Australia are rather well-off, Ukraine is fighting a nasty civil war at the moment, and much of the power in the central African states is only nominal as warlords jockey for control.[/spoiler][hr]I am introducing another element into this RP that wasn’t mentioned in the anime. The Royal Britannian Military Academy.[hr][spoiler=Royal Britannian Military Academy]Just a military college. Learn military tactics. Learn obedience. Learn how to handle a weapon. Learn how to pilot a Knightmare Frame. Most of you will probably opt to be a student of the Academy. This will place you above ordinary soldiers, you will be sort of an elite. Students graduate at the age of 17 typically but there are always prodigies/geniuses.[/spoiler][/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Rules]All YCM Rules apply and you should know them, but I have to write them down anyway.
1. Respect other people. No flaming. Respect me as well.
2. No spamming in either IC or OoC.
3. No OoC stuff in IC, let’s keep IC as “In Character” please.
4. This is PG-13, so keep sexual content and gore to a minimum. I have final say in this.
5. No Godmodding, being all invincible, undefeatable and whatnot. If I say there is a character which can defeat you: They are able to defeat you, no questions asked.
6. No Powerplaying or taking control of other people’s characters without permission. Control of non-important NPCs IS allowed and does not require my permission.
7. No Godmodding. Even if you have some sort of prophetic Geass. If you have a prophetic Geass, I will tell you what you can and cannot see. Because of how tricky prophetic Geass are, it is very unlikely I’d accept a prophetic Geass.
8. No copy-pasting/expying characters from other RPs without modifying them to suit the RP first.
9. Minimum of 4 lines of text on IC posts.[/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Application]You are a person about to join the Black Knights. You could be a typically recruit into the army, or a Royal Britannian Military Academy graduate (see in World). Copy and Paste as Plain Text the following code.

[hr][spoiler=Zero]Zero was originally an identity which Lelouch created. You should probably Google him, he has a rather flamboyant uniform. Zero is a figure of awe as he was the savior of the world, the one who killed the tyrant, Lelouch vi Britannia. The public do not know the current Zero’s identity, his identity is known only by the Black Knights (which was disbanded), and you should not know who he is.

She intends to fulfil her husband's dream and take over the world.[/spoiler][/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Accepted Apps]List of people already accepted into the RP as well as my app.[hr][spoiler=Jiang Kongming/AixDivadis (WIP)]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']Just imagine dis guy turned into a Knightmare Frame.

[/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 2 feet of him. He can only use it for a maximum of ten minutes at a time and a full recharge takes one hour. 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][hr]C.C./TheFinalFan[hr]Dante Azuma/RogueZero[hr]Experiment Y/Ketodama[hr]Arcturus/Thranduil[hr]Maria Relison/encapturer[/spoiler][hr][spoiler=Reserves]- Barian Warlord

- Hina

- Dwarven King[/spoiler][hr]If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment below. I also can't think of a better name, so :P

[bury the year]

“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. Not a good start. (Also, imho I really don’t like this new trend of having one central character with the others orbiting around them. It isn’t conducive to good RP interactions.) At least you have an actual Chinese name – 姜空明 is a bit unusual but works perfectly fine.

 

Geass: Doesn’t bode well for originality if your character has the same powers as the canon main character, particularly when it’s been shown that there are so many other options available. Being able to use it three times a day on a single person breaks the original, and there’s no real way for a demand to not have “lasting effects” on a target, so that drawback’s out. Also, Geass should be limited, knowing that everyone and their dog would want it. There’s also the point that by the end of the series, Lelouch is the only person left with Geass on earth and C.C. the only one with a Code; so if K.K. is to come into existence, C.C. will have to die. Just food for thought

 

Knightmares: Where’s a field for that in the application? Shouldn’t users be able to customize their own?

 

Age Range: What if I don't want to make a student character?

 

This is a good start, but it needs some expansion before being too hasty and putting it up. I can do world-building if you’re interested – I had a post-C:G map that may be of use.

 

[spoiler="EDIT: Here's a map if you're curious. Descriptions are a WIP."]

[Aix]

I'll try to not make him the focal. When I run an RP, I tend focus myself on DMing more, any actions he will take will be to advance the plot. He is already an experienced Geass user who has already achieved a "runaway Geass". Yeah, I really got to work on him and flesh him out better, still working on that, I guess I'm a little impatient, but it's always taken a long time for people to post apps, so I've always fleshed out the characters fully after the RP has been posted. BTW, his name is Jiang (the United States of China royal surname, I dunno what it is in character) 孔明, which was the style name for Zhuge Liang, China's other most famous (and partially fictional) tactician.

 

I think I will link it so to have 1 Code per Thought Elevator, which would ultimately bring us to a total of eight codes (I think). K.K. will be a person who has collected 5 of the Codes, granting her greater power, and she is more than 2000 years old. K.K. also has the ability to see into a person's heart and get a general idea of what Geass they will manifest and thus she went around finding people who will be useful tools, as she herself is unable to use Geass abilities. Other Geass users K.K. found include a person who has the ability to place a "Mark of Possession" upon something, including both humans and objects, and a person who can see into the future (which will be troublesome).

 

Knightmares: That will be included in the Combat Info section.

 

Age Range: The reason I suggested it was: a. because anime characters are typically young and b. it's an excuse for the fact that you weren't in the war against or with Lelouch, but I suppose you could still be older and maybe you just happened to not have played a big role.

[bury the year]

Name: In regards to the name, I'm not terribly familiar with the Three Kingdoms period, so the reference went over my head. (孔 also isn't a character you'd see much in modern given names iirc, but I guess this is anime so that could slide.) In that case, his full name'd be 蒋孔明, although I think being a side branch of the family'd mean he wouldn't carry the Jiang name.

 

Geasses: Yep, there's eight, but one's buried under ice in Antarctica so only the other seven are accessible. If we go by the map I drafted up for the RP, four would fall in Britannian territory (one each in New England, Cuba, Siberia and northern France), two in the United Federation of Nations (Mozambique and Japan), and one being fought over by the Middle Eastern Federation and the Aryan States (northern Iran). You may want to reconsider the number that K.K. controls in that instance.

 

Knightmares: Would probably be easier to just have a separate section of the application to detail stuff in. //wink wink nudge nudge

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Is C.C. available as a character?

[Aix]

Is C.C. available as a character?

Eh? I suppose... maybe... possibly... I don't like it though... you'd have to work out how she fits in and you better play her character well. I personally find having the Code at the very beginning kinda... OPed? Plus she'd just be able to grant everyone Geasses...

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

But didn't she promise Lelouch not to give the Geass to anyone else?
Also, why would she want to give anyone the Geass after Lelouch changed how she feels about the Geass?
I figure she could be hiding out somewhere (maybe Kamine Island) and is forced to re-enter the world stage when the war comes to her.
She could be forced by one of the factions to give them Geass that, unbeknownst to them, will result in their demise in ironic fashions.

I suppose, however, she would not be at the beginning of the RP, she has no motivation to do anything and owes no one anything and she is a loner. I can see her being chased by K.K., maybe even captured, but otherwise, she has no real part to play. Perhaps, you could control her if you really want, but you should probably make a character for yourself to be in the RP and... control her as an addon?

 

EDIT: I suppose she could fall in love with a character somewhere and follow that person but, I dunno otherwise.

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

I was thinking she could be more active because she wishes to uphold the peace Lelouch fought and died to create. She highly respected the plucky lil' genius, and wants the cause he killed himself over to not be destroyed. Also, falling in love seems WAY too cliche, and rather OOC for C.C.

Alright, I guess, she can be your main character.

 

Also: @Rinne: The United Federation became part of Britannia, I know (well who doesn't), though I would naturally assume that they would have gotten their independence, but not the Britannian colonies.

The timeline the map was made for diverged a bit before Zero's death. Besides, a unipolar world isn't terribly interesting for the purposes of an RP. P:

[Aix]

Yeah okay, it'll kept has a unified world. I suppose Nunnally could be respecting her brother's effort in taking over the world and also deciding keeping everyone together was good.

[RogueZero]

Can I join too? XD

 

And what kind of reason should I give to get a geass?

[bury the year]

Derp, so do you want the map edited or not? o_o

 

Also, despite my making resources for your RP free of charge, I'll hold off on deciding to join until I get a feel for what kind of applications you'll be accepting.

Nah, the map is fine. I'll just go with it. I'll accept any sort of app that fits in with what we're doing/someone eligible to be part of the Black Knights and help out in some way and actually take part in the operations.

I'm also considering some people on K.K.'s side, as someone asked me, but I still gotta figure out how that'd fit into the story.

Rogue, you have to have some backstory of with either being an orphan taken in by a Geass research facility or you have to be someone who met an immortal before and made a contract with them for some plausible reason, typically the immortal has some wish he/she wishes to fulfill and they want you to help, or you have to promise to help. You do not have to actually know what the wish is. I'll say there'll be 1 other non-canon immortal so that such geass users are possible.

[RogueZero]

And who is it? XD

 

And I already have a custom Knightmare Frame, only need to think about how to get my Knightmare Frame XD

Enraged by this, Dante left K.K. and pursued Kongming till he reach Britannia. When he met him, he point his gun to Kongming asking him why did he abandon K.K. and how could he kill his own sister, Kongming said that Dante's been give a false information by K.K. so that he and him kill each other, Kongming also said that K.K. is the one who killed Hao. Blinded by rage, he don't want to hear any excuses from Kongming. As he about to shot Kongming, Kongming activated his Geass thus calmed Dante down. Dante then recall his memory with Kongming and Hao, he then start crying and ask to Kongming, if he really killed Hao. Kongming approached Dante and ask how could a brother do such a cruel thing to his sister. He also said that he, Hao, and Dante is just a tool for K.K.'s ambition. Upon realizing this, Dante's swear to avenge Hao's death and to kill K.K. who deceived him.

[spoiler=Geass]

Geass :
Dante Azuma's Geass is the power to suspend the subjective sense of time and is similar to Rolo's. It is known as the "Absolute Time Suspension" which make the time inside his geass range move slower. It is noticeably weaker than Rolo's (Rolo's Geass made the enemy move more slower than Dante's Geass) but it can be used to stop inanimate object but cannot stop physical phenomena. The limitation is that his lungs will stop working if he use his power, limiting his time to use Time Suspension. The range of suspension also determines the amount of strain it puts on him. He usually collapsed if he use it too long. His Geass materialized in his left eyes. [/spoiler]

Well, how bout it?

The way you put it sounds like he randomly drastically changes, especially the first time he changed. Put in that K.K. taught him to become a great assassin, changing him through cruel, drastic, sink or swim situations, but then, Kongming (Kongming is his first name, the Chinese and the Japanese both put surnames first) taught him to love the world.

 

Also, Kongming isn't actually that great of a pilot, better than average, but not that great, I would say he is about the same level as Dante here seems to be. Though, Zero and Kallen ARE probably the world's best Knightmare pilots, Zero's power partially stems from Lelouch's curse and Kallen is simply a pure prodigy who can stand up against anyone.

 

I really don't get how your Geass works and how it is different from Rolo's other than the limitation (which I understand)? Please clarify. Otherwise, think up of a completely different Geass. Maybe one that makes him invisible to perception?

 

Please explain your Knightmare's weaponry in more detail, what it can do, the specs and etc. I couldn't find Thebes Cannon anywhere.

 

Other than the fact that he seems like a carbon copy of Rolo with a Knightmare, he is perfectly fine, though I suppose I shouldn't be talking since Kongming is completely based off of Lelouch.

[RogueZero]

Umm, so basically I need to edit it?

 

and yes, you're right, I made this character based off on Rolo's, and his relationship with Kongming is like Rolo & Leuloch XD

Yes, yes, edit it please. Make him more unique, too. Add your own personal flair!

[RogueZero]

Finished editing

 

And about his Geass, yeah, it's the same as Rolo, but Rolo's geass cannot slow down a projectile/inanimate object, but my character geass can, also, Rolo's Geass made his enemy move more slower than my geass XD

[RogueZero]

Cause I'm bored enough, I add some more info XD

 

Maybe now it looks like a character info more than an app. XD

[The Amazing Avian]

Question, do the Knights of the Round still exist or has that been abolished too?

Question, do the Knights of the Round still exist or has that been abolished too?

They still exist but are looking for members. I will fill in some of the gaps before we start with NPCs, but you are free to make a new Knight. I generally don't like having people play canon characters though, I guess I made a special exception for TFF.

[RogueZero]

So what else do I need to edit?
