In Memorial of the Fallen: a RWBY RP [Closed, New OOC Link]

[The Alexanderians]

Quick question, will this be taking place at beacon with us as students (or at least some of us) or is this outside beacon?

In Beacon.

This pleases us

[Stormwrath]

Work in Progress. I decided that Adelaide is to be a teacher at the academy, and that her brother is attending as a huntsman in training.

CHARACTER INFORMATION
Name: Leif Spruce
Age: 18
Sex: Male
Race: [x] Human [ ] Faunus
Biography: Leif is the son of a certain cook in the western part of Vale; this was how he got his cooking skills. One time while doing a night shift with his father, a robber broke into the restaurant, and his father was held up. Spotting the robber from the back room, and not knowing what to do, he went and threw his cooking knife at the guy, which struck the robber's left leg; just enough time for police to arrive.

A teacher at Signal Academy who was a close friend of his father's, heard about the incident, and offered to let Leif be trained to become a huntsman, but he has still a lot to learn at Beacon, since he was trained for close combat. The team has an advantage with Leif in terms of survival, as he has been trained to cook or prepare almost anything that can be edible.
Appearance: Somewhat like this.

COMBAT INFORMATION
Weapon: Nascosto
Appearance: A pair of gauntlets with retractable blades.
Capabilities: The gauntlets are used for close combat, and can be supplemented with blades that are installed below the wrist. These blades can pop out to impale Grimm (although Leif never uses it on human or faunus opponents). Additionally, the blades can be detached for him to use as daggers.

Semblance: Mimicry. Leif can imitate other people's semblances, although the result is drastically weaker compared to the original.

RP Activity: Mostly Active

Jackson has a rebellious attitude, and has got into trouble at Signal several times.

Appearance:

[b]COMBAT INFORMATION
Weapon: Apertor
Appearance: Resembles a bat.
Capabilities: The bat is used in close combat. It has a rifle form where it can fire in semi-auto, full auto, single shot, or burst with regular or Dust cartridges. It also has a third form, that of a sword.

Semblance: No name for it yet, but it allows Jackson to turn invisible for five minutes at a time. It has a cooldown time of four hours, so he prefers to use it in certain situations.

Bio (The longer the better):Living in one of the villages near Vale, Safir had to learn how to fight from an early age, quickly developing skills that would, if he lived within the kingdoms, only have been gained through time in one of the combat academies and mastering control over his semblance rather quickly. However, his village was eventually attacked by a horde of Grimm and was entirely destroyed. when a team of Hunters then went to find out what had happened to said village, they found him, hiding amidst the rubble, and seeing that he was old enough to go to one of the aforementioned combat academies, sent him to signal, where he quickly showed mastery of his weapon. following this, he was advanced somewhat and was then accepted to beacon.

Weapon: Lebensnehmer
Appearance: Bardiche/Double-barreled Assault Rifle

note: when in Assault Rifle form, the blade of the Bardiche acts as a form of bayonet.
Capabilities:weapon can be converted from Bardiche to Rifle, but a barrel is still available for use when in bardiche form

CHARACTER INFORMATION
Name: Veridian Emer
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Race: [ ] Human [X] Faunus
Animal Traits (Omit if human): Boar Tusks
Biography: Born in Vale, Veridian never truly worried about the Grimm, thinking that the conflict between Faunus and Human was drastically more significant. However, he decided to join the Hunters, simply as a way to show that Fauni were as capable, if not more so, than humans. however, this worldview was shattered after he met a fellow student of his, a survivor of an Grimm attack (Safir). following this, he realised how important the role he was stepping into was, and started to take it significantly more seriously.
Appearance: Green eyes, Brown hair, approximately 1.6 meters tall, light complexion. He wears a green trench coat with a lot of pockets, gray cargo pants, glasses and a blue t-shirt.

COMBAT INFORMATION
Weapon: Todesbringer
Appearance:Mode 1: Double-barreled Pump-Action Combat Shotgun (e.g. Remington 700)
Mode 2: a pair of daggers
Capabilities: Several different cartridges can be loaded, including a grappling hook. as with any other RWBY weapon, recoil is great enough that it can lift him into the air. In dagger form, the recoil can be used to increase striking speed.

Semblance: Density Control: If in contact with a non-living object, he can increase or decrease the density thereof, to the degree that the object can be solidified or vaporised. However, it takes significant amounts of concentration, and drains him of energy.

Age:17
Sex:Male
Race: [ X] Human [ ] Faunus
Animal Traits (Omit if human):none
Biography: Born into a relatively unknown criminal family, Amaril was expected to carry on the legacy, which he did, controlling the group with an iron fist and making sure that anybody who spoke out would be punished. He also extended the zone of control of his group, taking over several other such criminal groups until his was one of the largest and powerful. He was then approached by a certain Roman Torchwick, who forcibly took control of the gang, and made it clear that Amaril would be killed on sight by any of his former allies. with nowhere left to go, he went to Beacon, and was accepted, despite having no formal combat training.
Appearance:Dirty Blonde hair, brown eyes, approx 1,80m, relatively muscular. Yellow cloak, brown pants, golden-brown shirt.

Appearance:
Mode 1: double-bladed Battleaxe

CHARACTER INFORMATION
Name:Terre Debrun
Age:17
Sex:Male
Race: [ ] Human [X] Faunus
Animal Traits (Omit if human):Wolf ears/fangs
Biography:Born to a relatively wealthy, landowning family (akin to nobility IRL), Terre never truly suffered discrimination due to his being a faunus, but rather was respected and shown as an example of tolerance to basically everyone, showing that tolerance between faunii and humans could be achieved. However, this was before members of an obscure anti-faunus group decided to target him and his family for assassination, simply due to this. His parents blamed him for that, any and all tolerance flying straight out the window. this naturally led to extreme arguments, and eventually, to Terre running away from his home, in an attempt to find some place that was not entirely full of hypocrisy and lies. thinking that this would be the case in Beacon, he thusly applied, with formal self-defense training allowing him entrance, along with his rather prestigious name.
Appearance:brown hair, Yellow, wolfish eyes, approx 1.76 meters tall, lean muscular build. wears grey cape, dark brown shirt, beige trousers

COMBAT INFORMATION
Weapon:Longclaw
Appearance: Pair of retractable claws built into gauntlets
Capabilities:claw blades can be fired via special mechanism, and can potentially have a rope attached to them, giving him grapple hook capabilities.

Semblance:Wolfen eye: vastly improved eyesight, able to view in infrared, detect the smallest amount of motion, etc. however, it requires concentration.

Team VAST awaiting approval.

[Serah]

Well, here goes mine.

Name: Theriam Lareylis
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Race: Human
(For Faunus) Animal Traits:
Appearance (Can be Picture):

Bio (The longer the better): Theriam grew up in a fairly normal family with a year younger brother, his mother was a surgeon and his dad was a blacksmith, he quickly learned first aid support, as his mother wanted him to be a surgeon, and because of his dad's passion for forging he quickly learned how to melt metals and even forge some weapons. they lived fairly normally for most of his childhood.

Around his seventeenth birthday, he got dust blown into his right eye giving his eye the coloration he has now (it is purely appearance wise though), Around a year later when one of his uncles died, he was gifted an ancient sword, which had belonged to one of his ancestors, he took it as a keepsake and trained to use it to the best of abilities, as he was being educated at Signal, he quickly completely synchronized with his weapon and discovered the other modes of the weapon, the one he masters the most is the short-sword, Breaking point.

Weapon: Miriel: It's a fairly rounded weapon, it has three modes.
The first, Breaking point, is a short-sword and has a shield to make up for the lack of range.
The second, Rust, is a spear that has very high range because of the chain embedded in the five main parts, in it's chained form, it's about Theriam's height, in the unchained form, it can go up to ten foot.
And the third, Tetra, is a handgun that shoots .44 bullets, it is fairly versatile, as Theriam's semblance can infuse his bullets.

Appearance: Brown hair and left eye, red right eye, three days beard beige vest with multiple pouches and light brown cloth around the neck, brown T-shirt, 5"9, slightly muscular, black pants, white shoes, red mark on his back in the form of a lily.

Other: He often provokes the enemy by throwing things at them until they get angry.
He's fairly stern on the feelings, he doesn't show much.

Semblance: Rust, He can make things rust, it can only be synthetic and on weapons, because of the energy needed to operate it, he strives to use his semblance to the fullest. His semblance is rather useful in incapacitating foes, It's main flaw is that the semblance can't be infused in Theriam's bullets, making it impossible to give support from afar, it can only be used in hand to hand combat.


Did you read the rules?: Of course.

RP Example (Link or One Shot. Put One Shots in spoilers): I don't really have one, is it okay?

Nerf the semblance a bit and your good.

[Serah]

Just edited it.

[Kalbana]

You guys made another RWBY RP!

NOBODY TOLD ME!!!!!!!!



Going to go ahead and make another team KLAW. I liked that name

[Kalbana]

W.I.P.

TEAM KLAW:

Name: Keralia Ravenheart
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Race: Human
(For Faunus) Animal Traits: N/A
Appearance (Can be Picture):

Bio (The longer the better): Keralia was born in a small village outside of the kingdom to a loving family. She lived there quite peacefully, the village somehow not ever having trouble. It was heaven, with lush-filled meadows and Grimm-free forest. While she was always smaller than everyone, she was never given any trouble for it, and lived happily. The valley was perfect, and it seemed like it would never end.

Then, the Grimm attacked. Sweeping through the village, they slaughtered everyone in their path, polluting the once pure atmosphere of the valley. The Grimm spared no one, not even her parents. Keralia was hiding, and saw her parents get torn apart right in front of her. She saw what killed them, a Beowolf with a pitch-black hide, stained with blood. She saw it, and her vision turned red...

Later, when hunters and huntresses arrived after hearing of the invasion, they were surprised to see all the Grimm gone. In their place, was a young girl, stained from head to toe in blood, laying in the middle of a street, with mutilated Grimm corpses all around her. Quickly drawing conclusions, they took this girl into custody. She seemed to have no memory of killing anything, but at night, she had nightmares of it. In them, she rampaged through the town, tearing apart Grimm with her bare hands. She was eventually placed into Signal, forging her wings while attending, but was very shy at first. Her mental and emotional state were very fragile after the event, causing her to retreat into a shell. Signal tore her out of the shell, with Keralia making several friends there. Her mental state, however, was still fragile. Diagnosed with severe PTSD by the doctors, she was susceptible to violent mood swings, voices in her head, and other symptoms of a mental illness. This didn't stop her from trying her best at school. She has activated her semblance very rarely, but understands what it is. Whenever the topic of her semblance is brought up, she always finds some way to dismiss it, preferring not to talk about what happened during it's first activation She was recently accepted into Beacon, after achieving flying colors in the entrance exam.

Weapon: Wings of Rage
Appearance:

Capabilities: The Wings of Rage gives Keralia the ability to fly, along with being able to launch missiles. The wings also have twin gatling guns. When not deployed, it takes the form of a backpack on her back. She cannot fire the missiles or gatling guns without deploying the wings
Other: Ignore the person using the wings in the picture. Just put Keralia in her place

Semblance: Madness Enhancement: Madness Enhancement allows Keralia to get stronger at the cost of sanity. She goes into an insane state, getting far stronger and faster, but is completely mad, sadistic, and attacks semi-indiscriminately. The semblance is not voluntarily triggered, instead getting triggered whenever she is in a period of great emotional distress. It is hard to get her out of the state, only by knocking her unconscious can she get out of it. She does not remember very well what she does in this state.


RP Activity: Pretty active, but depends on RL situations

Name: Alexis Dune
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Race: Faunus
(For Faunus) Animal Traits: Wolf Tails and Ears
Appearance (Can be Picture): here
Bio (The longer the better): Alexis was born into the Vacuo royal family. However, when she left the womb, tails and ears were showing. The king immediately came to the conclusion she was illegitimate. Her mother was executed, but a sympathetic maid smuggled Alexis out. She grew up on the desert streets of Vacuo, where she learned how to fight. Once she was 16, she was able to stowaway on an airship to Vale, where she was accepted far more.

Weapon: Sandstorm
Appearance: here
Capabilities: Sandstorm is a pair of katars with twin-linked guns attached to the sides. While it looks solid, it is actually a construct of experimentally modified dust particles she can control with her semblance.
Other: If this sounds improbable, just look at Cinder's weapons

Semblance: Will of the Desert: Can manipulate sand effortlessly. To a far lesser degree, she can also manipulate dust. I.E. she can blast people with sand, but only move dust around
