Yu-Gi-Oh Tower of Babel Started/Accepting/OOC/PG-16

[Love of Ghibli]

Seems like I messed up just now, fixed my app such that the power listing is outside the bio spoiler. I think that's everything.

Sooo no other customs then?

[encapturer]

Sooo no other customs then?

 

Added the rest of the customs, except for the custom cards that will come when Neraine reaches the next level.

 

Now it should be ready =p.

 

EDIT: Unless you want them now, but I haven't really decided how Neo Granzon and Degeneration Cannon will work o.o

[Love of Ghibli]

One way is by being a writer for hire or a freelancer writer that writes guest articles in magazines, websites, or newspaper for some honor.

Anyway, my entry (the deck would be PM'd to you, due to several reasons)
[spoiler=App]
Character:
Username: Usami Renko
Name: Lucia Faelic
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Appearance: She’s quite tall, standing around 188 cm. Her hair is short and completely black; sometimes people even said that her hair looked like it’s actually a void in space due to how dark it is. Her pupil is also completely black, not dark brown, but deep black.

Most of the time, she wears a purple tunic and a long, frilly dark blue skirt. She also often wears a black bulletproof vest over her tunic.

Personality:People who just introduced to her might find her to be a creepy and unpleasant person, due to a lot of reasons. But as soon as they actually talk to her, Lucia is quite the nice person, and overall, a very pleasant person. She is quite interested in interacting with others, and conversations with her can last for hours. She’s also liked by everyone due to her dedication to her job, and her commitment to fulfill her consumer’s order well.

Behind all of it though, Lucia is hiding an insatiable lust to torture human being. She usually suppressed it by unleashing her desire to one of her dolls, and it worked quite well for now. She’s really afraid about the possibility of this side of her to be known to the public, and she’s afraid that her good image in the society will be tarnished and broken, especially since she had put a great effort to create the image.

Residence: Baseline
Occupation: Doll maker. Often held puppet shows in places.
Biography:
She was the descendant of a family of doll makers, so her talent is flowing in her blood. They originated from somewhere in Europe, and migrated to New York 2 centuries ago.

Or that’s the info that she fed others with. Her true origin was a mystery, even to herself. She just seemed to appear mysteriously in the Baseline one day. At first, she struggled hard to make a living, trying one job after another, even some jobs that she thought to be gross at first. But that’s still not quite enough to afford her a room somewhere, so she decided to live near the dumps.
There, she found a knack for dolls, and repaired some that was tossed there, and made it better. She also often played with her dolls, and created her own stories to be enacted by the dolls. After a while, someone noticed her (in accident), and asked her to move into his place, so he could get some use of Lucia’s talents. Lucia almost immediately took the offer.

Lucia’s dolls and the shows proved to be successful, and both her and the man’s finance was greatly improved due to the success. But one day, after holding a show, Lucia went home only to find her partner was killed in a gruesome way. At this time, both her power and her Avatar appeared.

Utilizing both to the maximum extent, she hunted down the ones that’s responsible for the murder, and faced with the full gang.
The next morning, police found around twenty or so mutilated human bodies in the alley and a barely surviving man that apparently had lost his mind, continuously blabbering nonsense. No traces of Lucia’s involvement could be made, and that’s implying the idea that Lucia could be the mass murderer could come across the police’s mind.

Several days after the massacre, she received a pile of cards from the quite popular game of Duel Monsters from an unknown person. At first, she didn’t pay any attention to it, but in the end, she decided to learn some about the game, and played it with the gift deck. The fact that the deck contains a card exactly similar to her Avatar was quite unsettling, though.

Powers and Abilities: Her ability is best described as “projection”. She can use it to project something like something from her imagination, images, or something similar to that into a 3-D holographic model. The “holograms” are not tangible, and cannot affect anything physically. After the holograms are projected, Lucia can control them and speak through them like a puppet. At its peak, Lucia can project things in someone else’s mind. She can project the subject’s deepest nightmares, or forcefully projects an information from someone this way.

Deck: Massacre Phantom
Deck Description: Sadistic choices (do this and you’re doomed, not do anything and you’re still doomed), and lockdown.
Custom Cards: PM

Avatar

Avatar: Massacre Phantom, the Hero of Failures
[spoiler=image] [/spoiler]
Avatar Personality: Fatalistic and ignorant. It embodies the concept of failures in itself, but if it’s pursuing a task/mission/goal, it will not stop no matter what happened, until either it’s successful, or it’s doomed with a total failure.

Avatar Abilities: It has the ability to create several illusory copies of objects. All of them have the same properties as Lucia’s projections.
[/spoiler]

Everything seems fine (cards are reviewed in PM) but the power to put images inside another person seems to be pushing it though. If that were gone ( or rewritten) all would be well.

[Maeriberii Haan]

Ah, that makes sense. I'll remove that part.

[Love of Ghibli]

Added the rest of the customs, except for the custom cards that will come when Neraine reaches the next level.

Now it should be ready =p.

EDIT: Unless you want them now, but I haven't really decided how Neo Granzon and Degeneration Cannon will work o.o

Everything seems fine to me then. accepted

The app page will be updated on Thurs. As I wait for to see if the Babylonians who are on the other side of the fence respond to inquiries.

FYI I am heavily thinking about starting after all of the holidays that way there won't be inactivity for those weeks and school will likely start up again so people who want to drop out don't even have to worry about this as an extra commitment.

[Super Chaos Sonic]

Alright Balias, finished my app on Pg. 3 ^^

Alright Balias, finished my app on Pg. 3 ^^

Did you intend for your characters dad to be a Babylonian?

[Super Chaos Sonic]

Did you intend for your characters dad to be a Babylonian?

 

For Babylonian? Um...not exactly...

 

Why?

[Love of Ghibli]

For Babylonian? Um...not exactly...

Why?

You said the characters dad's Avatar was Neos Wiseman which makes the Dad a Babylonian. If he made it to Midgard the highest he could get is a level 6. I don't have a problem with the secret Babylonian, it's just that the story would have to be re-written that Hiro had absolutely no idea about his fathers true life. We can make it a substory if you want. It fits within Knaomme's history.

Well then....I suppose that may just work! ^^

That's fine so you may have to put more of a mysterious father story in the bio

Alright...I fix right away!!!!

[Origin 뮤]

Character: 

Username: Vigilante

 

Name: Kristoff(Kris) Arendale

Age: Somewhere around 17 or 18, but nothing is known for sure

Gender: Male

[spoiler=Appearance]

Kris looks a bit older than this, having a bit of stubble as well as a bit more muscle mass. That being said, he is by no means 'muscly', but rather a lean, lithe figure. He is of below average height, standing at about 5'6". He's put together his little 'suit of armor' from scraps that he finds laying around the Baseline. Most of the time, he wears a black leather jacket with an image of Red Eyes B. Dragon on the back, as well.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Personality]

Kris is a goodnatured kid. He isn't particularly mean or rude and tries not to make too many enemies. Kris has a strong sense of family, and by family I mean commitment to his gang. Never knowing a true home, the streets and his fellow gang members are the only thing he can call home. If anyone messes with his family, Kris goes off on them, acting out of a sense of duty and not so much rage. 

 

One would expect Kris to resent being impoverished and have a deep seated hate for the wealthy, but that isn't the case. He has accepted his lot in life and is more than happy with it. He doesn't have any hard feelings for the higher ups or those that were born into a good life. In addition, Kris has no seated feelings regarding race, gender, or sexuality. 

[/spoiler]

 

Residence: Baseline

Occupation: [acronym='With the Tower of Babel always a point of interest for the public, Kris makes some money showing(and protecting) daring tourists. He will even show them the interior of the tower, but refuses to take them into Midgard.']Tour Guide[/acronym]

[spoiler=Biography]

Kris is just a kid that is trying to make it in a hard world. He grew up on the streets. He has the vaguest memories of a family life, but aside from those fleeting glimpses of his past, he has only known the Baseline. He isn't 100% sure how he got there, but he assumed that his parents either died or abandoned him. Either way, he figured it wasn't worth looking for them. So instead he learned how to survive on his own. Now of course, a child at the age of no more than 5 or 6 wouldn't last very long on the streets alone, and luckily Kris wasn't alone. Found by a member of a local gang, known as the Crimson Fireballs, Kris was taken in and cared for.

 

Now the Crimson Fireballs weren't a rich or high up gang and survived on the scraps left by everyone else, but they did have a reputation...but not the reputation that was normally associated with gangs along the Baseline. Instead of vying for power or fighting to reach Babylon, the Crimson Fireballs were known to be a family. They watched out for each other and left everyone else alone, so long as no one in their family was messed with. It is from this dynamic that Kris has such an intense loyalty towards his family. 

 

At the age of 15, Kris's dueling abilities really started to improve. Of course, growing up in the Baseline, he had seen the powers and Avatars of his friends and family manifest, but he had never been lucky enough to know such power. His only hope was to hone his dueling skills, by practicing with his fellow Fireballs, and to let nature do the rest. Finally, during a particularly intense battle, one of Kris's monsters turned to him and spoke. 

 

Now awakened with his powers and protected by his Avatar, Kris tries to help provide for his gang by offering tours around the Baseline and even into the tower. Of course, he is ever vigilant in case of stray monsters or rival gang members appearing.

[/spoiler]

 

[spoiler=Powers and Abilities]

Kris is able to create constructs out of light. Now the strength of these constructs are of course dependent on several factors including,but not limited to, Kris's physical stamina, his mental fortitude, his current emotions, and the number constructs he currently has. In addition to being able to craft constructs out of light, he is also able to shoot low powered beams of light from his hands. This could simply mean his hands becoming built in flash lights OR portable lasers.

[/spoiler]

Deck: Lightsworns
Deck Description: Kris's deck relies heavily on getting Lightsworns in his graveyard to either bring out his ace card of Judgement Dragon or one of his Lightray cards.
Custom Cards: None at the moment

Avatar: Jain, Lightsworn Paladin

Baseline: Lvl: 4

[spoiler=Avatar Personality]

Jain is a fearless warrior, charging into battles with only the idea of victory on his mind. He has no regard for his own being, and will only ever retreat from a battle on command from Kris, or in order to save another. Jain, while reckless, is incredibly caring for the well being of others. While mostly the silent type, Jain does occasionally offer bits of wisdom and advice when needed. In addition, he is a great listener and is able to convey a wide range of emotions simply by the look on his face. Jain and Kris have a good relationship and neither is very far from the other. They enjoy each other's company and have a feeling of trust that can only be obtained when you have fought back to back with someone. 

 

During battle, Jain tends to make use of his excellent sword skills to combat opponents. With the added defensive structure of his shield, Jain is usually able to out maneuver almost any opponent by switching between an offensive and defensive playstyle. In times of desperate need, Jain will make use of his light-attribute abilities, but tries to refrain from revealing his ace card too soon.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Avatar Abilities]

Jain is able to create bursts of light energy from his sword. This can range from a stabbing beam or a slashing arc, depending on how Jain wields it. The power of these bursts of energy rely on Jain's own physical stamina, emotions, etc. and thus have a great range of intensity. In addition to being able to shoot bursts of energy, Jain is able to create defensive constructs, like walls or shields, much like Kris is able to. These constructs are usually channeled through his shield, but he can also summon them with just his hands. Note, that he is only able to create defensive structures, while Kris can make just about anything.

Avatar: Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter
Baseline: Lvl: 2
[spoiler=Avatar Personality]
Ryko is quite the vicious little guy. While he does obey Kris, it is usually grudgingly, and not without some kind of snarky remark or complaint. Ryko hates to be still and always wants to be doing something. Living up to his name, Ryko spends most of his time hunting, taking down low leveled monsters or small animals. He doesn't seem to notice that he is fairly small and will not shrink away from a bigger opponent. Even thought Ryko is small, he is a tough little guy and will give just about anyone a good fight.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Avatar Abilities]
Ryko is able to temporarily create copies of himself out of light, a variation of Kris's ability to create constructs. These copies do not have mass to them, but they do make sound, have a scent, and are indistinguishable from Ryko. In addition to being able to make doppelgangers, Ryko is able to instantly teleport to his master's side by transforming into a ray of light and traveling to Kris's location in a blink of an eye.

Ryko is quite the scrapper and is able to inflict some massive damage with his teeth and claws. Making use of his enhanced speed and superior agility, Ryko can outpace almost any enemy.

Alright...I fix right away!!!!

 

Its complete now ^^

[Origin 뮤]

Accepted

 

Great! I'll get to work on a second character :D

[Tashima Awaiiko]

Is there still a spot open for a Bablyonian Character?

[Maeriberii Haan]

Edited the application by a bit. Avatar's description will be reworked.

[Love of Ghibli]

Okay so apps have been updated to the front page if you have any questions feel free to ask. 

I only have 1 more Babylonian app for myself to add and as you can see all my customs cards have there own threads so if you feel like commenting on them feel free to do  so. 

Note this does not mean there is only 1 Babylonian slot left (in fact I actually want more lol) its just that I'm only really working with three characters here (trying not to bite off more than I can chew).

More characters are always welcome. I will repeat I intend to start AFTER the holidays just so I can get some planned inactivity out the way and as a fair warning the story will move pretty fast at first but will get slower so you can build some interaction with other characters. So finally look over all other characters see if you have any concerns about ANYTHING. Ask now lol

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

App should be OK now, I hope. I filled out all the fields I need to.

 

...

 

App is on post #66 if you need to check it.

So, that means early January? That's kind of a long way from now. Too long, if I may say.

So, that means early January? That's kind of a long way from now. Too long, if I may say.

And how would you think we go about the holidays then?

[Maeriberii Haan]

I say we start before/just as the holiday season starts, since it can give some headstart into the story just as holiday strikes, and also the fact that not all people will be inactive during holiday season. Seeing this becoming a dead place until January is kind of sad, and there's a possibility that it might affect the player's interest in the RP.

[Love of Ghibli]

Okay then I will wait till the other two theoretical Babylonians (not counting mine) are submitted and then I will start. Hopefully you rae right and the stagnation will not kill this before it has started.

[encapturer]

I suppose the question is who will be around to participate? I know I may not be able to post starting this friday until monday, though if the RP has already started I can collaborate with someone to control Neraine since I will still have my phone.
