[Ormata]

Thats kinda the point, Storm-senpai

I'd say three but with different clothing. As it's a teacher, the first two seem too young to, ya know...be teachers.

Younger teacher then normal, definitely. Somewhere in their early 20s, probably

[Parcia]

Alright, So I have an idea.

Accent: Australian, because Vacuo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLQ__prLzUk
Weapons:

ARES MK2 Arctic Warfare/hunting rifle, basically a Full length Arctic Warfare Magnum in .338, firing a variety of Dust based rounds. Mount a Under-barrel mounted Slanted grip, a x4 Holo sight (an EO-tech style sight) and a green laser module. Custom forged by him self during a stay at Atlas.

REX mk1 big game/personal defense "Hand Cannon" Revolver, Basically the Russian MP412 Rex.

And most likely a long bladed knife.

So, a sniper rifle modded for mid range, making him more a marksmen then a true sniper, and a revolver and knife combo.

Aura: Standard damage resistance and healing. Semblance: Still WIP.

I'll have a full APP with in the next day.

A side effect of having 2 gun nuts as very close friends mean I'm critical about these things.
A. A semi-automatic pistol would probably be better, but thats my opinion
B. Why not use an actual dedicated marksmen rifle, not a modded sniper rifle, if you're gonna be a marksman.
C. .338 is a dedicated sniper rifle cartridge. Just use 7.62 instead

[Parcia]

I totally understand. I was trying to go with a Big game hunter style person with a Mercenary family background, hence Vacuo.

I can do a semi auto pistol, or not a pistol at all, I might just have a balded secondary.

Back to my Big game Idea, Facing things like Beowolves and lesser Grimm, 7.62 would be fine, but things like King Tijitus...and other larger, heavily armored Grimm, I figured a higher powered round like .338 would be more effective, although I do see your reasoning for apprehension as its technically more powerful then 12.7.

I also really, really, really love the look of the AWM and its sister platforms.
So, idea changes:

Either going to go Rifle/Knife or Rifle/Pistol, although im leaning towards the former.

CHARACTER INFORMATION
Name: Tanith Grey
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Race: [ ] Human [X] Faunus
Animal Traits: Vulpine in Nature, Elongated canines,Slit pupils, a pair of smaller then normal ears.
Biography:

*During this interview, Mr. Grey and company are currently engaged in defending a town from a rather cruel group of bandits, who had been laying siege to the small village I am staying in. This is during a lull in the combat. *

So, you want to know my story ehh? Well, seeing as I’m not in a fire fight, I don’t see why not.

Born in Atlas, apparently, to a merchant family before the SDC took over most of the trade there. With the business gone, mum and dad moved me out here when I was a wee lad. We did good here, even had a sister. Then they came around. *He makes a pointing motion towards the lines of the Bandits* Came around, harassed the family, threatened us, mum wouldn’t have any of it and usually was the one who would kick em out, but well…she was one women. They over ran us one night, burned down the barn, dragged us out of bed and were likely gonna finish us off. Then, out of no ware, this massive Tijitu smashes in to their truck, flipping it over.
Then I remember seeing the flash of rifle fire, the silhouette of a large scythe, and feeling what felt like a truck slamming in to my head.

I don’t remember much of that. I know my mum and dad are dead. *Mr. Grey’s gaze seems to drift off. * Though I do know my little sis is out there, some were.
Woke up in the morning in the back of a truck, feared maybe I was still their prisoner, then Mac *Referring to Johan Macmanus, the leader of the Corsairs* calmed me down and told me who I was with. *He points to the double headed Eagle on his armor and Beret cap. * The guard is what they called us, though we preferred the term “Corsairs” a mercenary group who specialized in fighting Bandits and Grimm alike. They took me in, gave me a rifle *He pats the Ares made Rifle as he cleans it * my sword, and taught me how to fight. I was 6 then, just a wee lad, and Mac took me in as his own. It was hard at first, knowing I was all alone in this hell of a world. *He chuckles * but that’s the thing about living in hell, eventually you get over the fire and constant threat of death and just learn to have fun. * I ask as to how being the only Faunus in the unit of soldiers for hire feels and he gives me a blank look* I don’t care that I am what I am, neither does anyone here and that’s because we don’t care what you are, if you pull your own weight and prove yourself to the unit, were like family.

*I ask if he had heard of the White Fang and their activities. * Yea, I’ve heard of them, bunch of gits with their head sup their asses, spouting all that “Faunus supremacy” shite, look mate, I get why you asked, but let it be known I don’t like them, not because they are shite at their operations, but because they fail to see that if mankind stays as divided as it is, it’s likely we’re ain’t going to stand much longer as it is, not if the Grimm have anything to say about it. *As if on que, the order to be ready to defend the small trench we are in is given, and Mr. Grey puts his rifle back together, loads a magazine, and readies it on the bipod. * Now, doc, I don’t mean to brush you off here, but you might want to keep your head down.

Personality:

“….Subject shows rather high level of maturity and levelheadedness for some one of his age, not to say subject does not, on occasion, “relax” and act more like a teen ager, but due to subjects current life situation, these times are rare. Subject does not show any aversion to violence and has even stated he prefers a good fight over ours of pointless delegation. When asked about family, he simply replies with “My unit is my family, they raised me.” Despite this, I do know of situations were subject has “Lost his Temper” and gotten involved in rather brutal confrontations, showing a rather brutal individual in combat, but I see no traces of this person when Subject is not provoked….”

Appearance:

Change the Eyes to Icy Blue and you have him, picture taken during one of the few times he visited a White Fang Rally, still has the mask.

Combat gear:

COMBAT INFORMATION
Weapon #1 :Ares Mk3 Squad Support weapon

Appearance:

Capabilities: RPM: 600-750|Effective Range: 600 Meters|Caliber: 5.62X45mm|Ammo: 60 rounds per mag in "Casket Mags"

Weapon #2 :"Alice"

A 3 foot long custom forged steel Blade, cutting edge on one side, short saw tooth edge on the other. Used with his right hand and drawn from a Machete sheath on his back.
Capabilities:Swish swish, Stab stab, its a F*cking sword Dude, not fighter Jet. -Some arse whole in Power armor.
Semblance:
Hunter's Sight- The user's Eye sight is modified to allow it to see the living aura of beings around them, similar to Heat based Vision.

Shares potential in tracking individual targets to each person's unique aura, provided the Seer also knows the name of the person they are looking for.

Weakness: 1. Because the Hunter's Sight requires the target to have an aura, so things like androids (those with out auras), AK series combat droids, and things like cars and trees will not shows up in this vision mode. Grimm apear devoid of an Aura, making them out to be (vary hungry and always pissed off) Black shapes in his vision.
2. Because of the extra amount of stress and strain the seers optical nerves are put through, prolonged use can and usually will result in temporary blindness and or a head ache from hell.

...What could have ever given you that idea?

After some hard deliberation, searching through the current Chars, and a rather nice dinner at Red Lobster, I came to the conclusion we needed some one a bit more 40k, though there is what is essentially a Vindicire assassin here

Careful with how much references to it you're gonna put in there, since RWBY isn't in the same universe as W40K, and you might be removed for exposing my plans to undertake a glorious Communist revolution on NS.

Nah mate, i get yea. The Gun and its attachments (I plan on getting a Holo Sight, Vertical fore-grip and a laser mod) from "Ares Arms" Some S Arms company in Atlas. There is even a story behind the emblems on His armor.

[North Arkana]

Oh god, another edgy grimdark character. Fiiiiiine.

Accepted if his Semblance makes that satisfying click sound.


1. 2 looks too feminine-ish.

Thats kinda the point, Storm-senpai

I vote 2

[Parcia]

Edited in my Semblance, feel free to critique me.

Personality and BIO, as well as a possible One off RP example likely to be up tonight.

Mind you I don't do one offs all the time.

[North Arkana]

Grimm don't have Aura. Seems like a very anti-human focused semblance.

Mercenary, from Vacuo, the people tend to be more lethal.

And your right, the Grimm Don't have an Aura, they apear as vary angry Black voids in his vision.

The semblance at least sounds like it'd be a hard counter to one of the most powerful parts of Reina's semblance.

Its is? I'll have to read up on it then.

EDIT: Read up on her...this is going to be so much Fun!

She the type of Person Tanith is likely to drop kick though, and Tanith doesn't like to hit women. The Tonfa/Uzi hybrid is...interesting though.

What I have him as of now, is your fairly common hired gun type, who likes to be direct and cutting to the point, the type who don't like to be toyed with and finds it a personal insult to be played with, other then that they might actually get along.

The whole point of her stealth is so she can close in and either punch you with her physical wave manipulation, or unload her guns in single blast mode. The longer she drags out a stealth fight the more pointless it is, so she's direct about it too.

[Parcia]

THis brings me to a question I have been meaning to ask.

Can one with enough mental concentration, or say an ability to block out/re-use pain *cough* Yang *cough* be able to resist this Wave Manipulation?


And if her thing is to get in close with stealth, and Tanith is a hard counter (which was a complete confidence, I swear) then the best way to deal with her is to back in to a corner and keep her at range.

I suppose. I just don't know if a student has that kind of power level or mental fortitude for it. Mental attacks are a bit of an unknown in regards to curriculum, and we haven't seen a case of anyone countering Emerald's hallucinations yet. Another thing to consider is that Emerald's illusions need to be kept within the realm of "realistic", whereas Reina's actually causes temporary changes to what you'd consider "realistic". Like, normal people know it's wrong to kill someone just for irritating you, but her madness aspect of brainwave stuff might make that seem like a perfectly reasonable option. Her semblance is meant to be to mental chaos incarnate to an extent,

As for keeping her at a distance... well it could work. If you don't mind getting peppered endlessly with relatively low powered but high rate of fire dust rounds. Constantly. Either that or she'd just leave.

[Parcia]

Hmm...another question, and I swear this isn't because of that one episode of Futurama, but say some one does not emit the usual brainwaves, say due to mental retardation, or some head trauma suffered in the past, would it remain effective?

I swear I'm not trying to build a direct hard counter, Im just bored as is and am interested in this.


EDIT: Just though of something, what if her target wore reflective sunglasses?

She'd have to adjust for that person's "normal" being different, but that's about it.

Sunglasses aren't a counter.

I ask because your app says eye contact is needed for it to work, but would it work if something was blocking eye contact?
