I'm all about surviving the horrors of the world, not letting them control you. I love their beauty as a result of their susceptibility to be overcome.
I think the world sucks, but I'm like 'Yeah, whatever. Go ahead and suck, world, see if I care. I'm going to have fun whether you suck or not.'

Mine is more like...

I think the world will always work against whatever I want. My life will inherently be faced with every obstacle, excuse, and loss that I let happen. As a result, it's my job to destroy every obstacle that life throws my way until it submits to my complete and utter rule. That way, I may just win before I die.

So I guess I'm a bit more aggressive than you, but it's generally the same idea.

...My goal is basically 'set a year to live until, if you reach that year set another one'. Because I have depression issues and am very infrequently(at least nowadays) suicidal, so yeah...

I'm gunning for twenty right now. I wonder if I can do it...

Eh, I bet I can. That's what my meds and psychologists are for, yeah?

Indeed. My goal is to rule the world. That's what keeps me going. :lol:

Agreed, we should keep from getting too far off topic. Thank you for the reminder.

...Is 'bacon' a code word or something? I'm just confused, now.

(No kidding? My class plans world domination... With me as the elected dictator of the world...)

It isn't. I think Icrum was saying something random. I felt like we were getting a little chatty for this thread is all.

(? Tg me about this I don't quite understand what you mean.)

Nope, no hidden meaning. Just bored and posted something random.

Though, I'm back at a computer now, so I'll be posting.

I treat OOC threads as chat threads based around the RP. The problem is that my conversations all go from sand sharks to bumblebee mating habits and not even I know how.

...No, I have never had a conversation that actually went like that. That was a Wikipedia exploration thing. (Speaking of which, did you know that if you go to Wikipedia, any article, and click the first link in the actual article text, and keep doing it, eventually you wind up at Philosophy? I tried it once. I started at 'bumblebee'. It worked.)

Well I guess I will say my short words before calling it a new night
I like the quote that is said on Ash Wednesday "Remember you are dust and from dust you shall return" but what about before I return? What is darkness without light. I can relate to the stubbornness Aiddannia was talking about. The world with all its terrible things and terrible people is just a type of pain to push through and get stronger from it. To quote Frank Underwood "There are two types of pain, the pain that makes you stronger and the type of needless pain." I can't allow myself to let the world make me feel needless pain when there is still good to be had.

Even when I feel cold and melancholic something insignificant to others can change that. Nationstates could be an example
I also say the quote "Don't even worry about it." Often

To think that this has been going for a year now....
God damn, Storm. We did it. We made a RWBY RP that lasted....

I'm actually tearing up now, I feel so proud.

Sure.


1- Ether is actually an owl.

2- Heamet once transcended the realm of mortality and became an elder god shark.

By the way, you've probably noticed it by now, but Heamet is going to be my own main character along Artol and Aria.

I may not be able to post tonight because I came down with the colds. Yeah, Storm's a fragile being in real life. If I am feeling better I may draft up a post tomorrow.

There seems to be no clear idea of which power is his semblance, whether it's superhumanly sharp sight, lycanthropy or faster regeneration and physical strength. A semblance tends to be one power, not many, and those with multiple superpowers tend to be maidens or the silver-eyed warriors. Of course, I assume you got the silver eyes thing after watching RWBY's finale and how OP Ruby was after Pyrrha got BBQ'd. Plus, it would be pretty risky to have a semblance that temporarily disables your Aura completely.


True, but he does have regenerative abilities.

As for certain aspects of his abilities, the "Angelic" abilities are legacy traits (again, back in the older days when I was first creating the character).

The Semblance itself would be the physiologies, and the abilities would be results of those physiologies.

If I thought that I could get away with it, I'd put in the ORIGINAL backstory to explain the "double semblance", but I guess I could try the "some myths really are true" excuse and say Werewolves (if that's acceptable).

The "lack of aura" was sort of a balancing idea I cooked up. Mainly, he'd rely on his speed to dodge attacks rather than be able to tank them.

The extent of the "Silver eyes" would be only to the Werewolf Physiology, labeling him as "Not-Grimm". Of course, if that's still a no-go, I can change it into blue eyes.
