Fantasy and Swith's OP Creation Guide. Credit to its respective owners. Links: IC CO-OPs: Shyluz Empire of Donner land The Basics "Welcome, dear student or colleague, to an academy unlike most. An academy where the firing trajectory of a round is simple maths. Where the effects of white phosphorus are the norm in biology and chemistry classes. Where horsepower and kilowatts are stressed to the maximum in physical education. Weapon maintenance is a must, as is flight training and combat exercises. Why did I make a school like this? It is a well known fact that superhumans walk this Earth, gifted individuals with abilities surpassing normal human ability. And then there are those who inherit personalities or abilities from inanimate long gone. Enough of that for now. I, Robert Hark, am your headmaster and tutor. Welcome to RAW." Alright, without further ado, let's get this description started! Once more, welcome to Robert's Academy of Weaponry, founded and lead by none other than Professor Robert Hark, former soldier of the national armed forces and physical educations teacher at Edwin's. What we just heard from the man is exactly true, but what does he mean by those who 'inherit personalities or abilities'? Quite simply, this is a school for those who have the souls of weapons lost. Whether it be due to the weapon's destruction, or being thrown away due to being unaccepted by its target buyer, nobody knows. But for certain, they're back, and in human form! That's where RAW comes in. RAW was designed to shape children like this to hone their abilities for purposes including, but not limited to, military and governmental. Sometimes we also get to fight aliens and stuff, but it doesn't really matter who it's for! The important thing is that these kids can control themselves. I mean really, who would want to stitch up an 88mm diameter hole in their chest just because they pissed off someone? Unreal man. Anyways, that's enough from me, Stuart Bellarus, who, as you might've guessed, inherited the soul of an M5 Stuart that got wrecked in the Ardennes... *Shivers* King Tigers are really spooky... Hope to see you soon! a.) OP & Co-OPs appointed are God, for all intents and purposes. b.) Don't metagame or Godmod. c.) Have fun, and be original! d.) NS Rules e.) No one-liners and/or bad grammar. f.) Don't use my NPC's. Ever. g.) Be polite to towards each other. Students and teachers are only allowed to be as old as the 1890's. Sorry ya 'ol geezers! Guns What's there to say? These are the things that do the shooting. Or in this case, the people. Guns are practically anything that infantry operate to kill, whether it be the smallest of pistols, to the large anti-aircraft artillery guns that defended the skies of Germany. Students that fall under the gun category are further divided depending on how many it takes to operate it, that being: Small-Arm, Team, and Squad. Afterwards they are graded depending on their respective calibers and placed into their specialty classes. That's pretty much it. Ground Vehicles Now this gets more interesting. Not only are ground vehicles graded by their firepower, but things like mobility and armor are now taken into account. Students of this type are basically any military vehicle to have ever rolled the earth, with the ability to summon armor and guns that they used to have and be able to operate them. They're divided by their respective roles: Utility or Armored Fighting Vehicles. Afterwards they're graded depending on what type of vehicle they are, like tanks, armored cars, or trucks for their specialty classes. Aircraft Did you see that explosion over there just now? That missile came from several hundred kilometers in the sky from our resident Frenchie, who used to be a Rafale that was lost in action. Similar to ground vehicles, aircraft students can summon armor and their weapons. But included in their arsenal is flight equipment, allowing them to soar the skies with propellers or jet engines, which build around their legs so that they can operate their armaments with ease. They're divided directly into what sort of engine they use to fly before graded depending on their designation, like fighters or bombers. Warship Usually the rarest type of Inheritance (and for good reason), these students are an extreme minority in RAW, and are only reincarnated destroyers or gunboats. This is due to the basic fact that they're extremely important national assets, and any chance of them being captured could be a threat to a certain nation's navy. As such, only the relatively "irrelevant" destroyed ships at sea are ever sent to RAW. But hell, they make a pretty good swim team. Now I bet you're wondering, why aren't missiles here? Because we don't meet them very much due to obvious reasons. I used to know this one guy, Indian from a tomahawk clan, cool dude. Was a shame.

Biography: Stuart was born in Indiana to a small military family. His father was a combat engineer, which can be seen by Stuart's interest in machines and the sort. He began to see his inheritance from an M5 Stuart when he cried while watching a war documentary on the King Tigers of World War II. Since then, he began studying about the vehicle, and found out that he could summon a 37mm cannon when angered or armor when he felt in danger. When he joined RAW, he was seen to be a rather popular student, and was voted to become the leader of Human Relations in the student council.

[Zrhajan]

what sort of era can vehicles be from. The sample app mentions an M5, a WWII-era vehicle, but the OP also mentions the Rafale, which is a bit more recent. can it just be vehicles and weapons from any sort of era of history?
Also, are prototype vehicles acceptable?

[Sonitusia]

I forgot to mention (and I will add soon).

Your limit is the 1890's to present times. We'll then grade your weapon on certain factors later on.

And if was built, a prototype is a-okay.

CHARACTER INFORMATION
Name: Alexander Schmitz
Weapon: Messerschmitt P.1101
Appearance:
silver-eyed, brown hair, pale skin, wears a short grey coat, black polo shirt, black cargo pants, black shoes, about 1,75m tall, slim
Gender: male
Sex: male
Age: 16
Personality:disciplined in official settings, but when amongst friends, which is itself a rare occasion, he is rather more relaxed. Other than puns, he usually doesn't make overly many jokes. When discussing politics, he is generally somewhat left-of-center and passionate about his beliefs. Despite being a loner, he is quite protective of his friends, and when faced with a challenge will try at all costs to succeed.
Biography:Born in Karlsruhe to a mid-sized family of physicists and amateur model builders, Alexander displayed a significantly greater amount of interest in the models, particularly those of prototypical aircraft. While this was initially written off as a mere interest in how unusual these designs were, his interest eventually solidified into a clear case of identifying with the Messerschmitt P.1101 (for reasons involving a near-deadly fall off a cliff), and for this reason he enrolled in RAW, hoping that his flying and fighting abilities will improve during his time there.

Choice of aircraft looks fine. It was built but never saw use it seems.

My only quips with this App is that the personality is lack luster, everyone is more comfortable around friends, go more into detail. Does he have a sense of humor or not because he's german? Details like that. Also it would be interesting if you went more into detail about the cliff for backstory and such perhaps when the IC goes up.

But I'll allow Sonitusia to accept or deny.

[Videssos]

I want to make a prototype UAV (probably the Taranis) trap that somehow has boobs (a bit like Namine Ritsu in that respect).

If it's something that new, then I'm not entirely sure how someone would inherit the UAV's "soul" without being a baby, though.

Not many issues, looks like someone who'd be a teacher's pet. Accepted!

To answer you and Shy, this story takes place about 6 years after EHEG, and by then that'd probably be enough time to inherit the soul of a prototype.

I will probably change the personality a bit, but I'd prefer to reveal more details regarding the fall at appropriate times in the IC. Also, as a German, I'd like to note that the Prussians are the only ones without humor.

Sounds good, I think your character could have a cool backstory, better than any of mine atleast.

And as a person of Black Dutch descent, I can probably agree on that.

... No shipz?

probably same reasoning as with the last RP,of this type I saw, ships operate only on water, and qt least for the most part we're likely going to be stuck on land.

Well, here's an idea I had, anyway.

CHARACTER INFORMATION
Name: Lynn Ashmore Winstanley
Weapon: Taranis UAV
Appearance:

Gender: Male (trap)
Sex: Male
Age: 6 (complicated)
Personality: Quiet, bit of a mix of kuudere and dandere. Personality varies depending on protocols (being more artificial than human in both mind and body, by this point) in place at the time, though since he has self-awareness, there are reoccurring elements that have become an integral part of him over time, and glitches have been known to occur at points. Not particularly socially adept, since he's actually quite young, and he has spent most of his time just carrying out orders and undergoing experimentation in some secret places. Usually has a bit of a posh accent, due to spending too much time near important people in the British government and military, though due to one of the main testing sites as a UAV being all the way over in the Woomera Test Range in Australia, he sometimes slips into a manner of speaking used over there. Moar to come.
Biography: Born to a fairly well off family in London, Lynn's inheritance manifested at a remarkably early age. British authorities were on the look out for potential reincarnations of destroyed secret weapons and experimental technology, be it theirs or others, both seeking the potential to be had by them, as well as ensuring that military secrets didn't fall into the wrong hands. It wasn't long before MI5 and GCHQ managed to track down a certain family and a rather odd infant. Especially when that infant caused an explosion in nursery. Lynn vanished shortly thereafter, and was taken by the secret services in cooperation with a secretive scientific department attached to the armed forces.

Undergoing testing and experimentation, it soon became apparent that the quiet child possessed the "soul" of a prototype UAV designed by BAE Systems, named after the Celtic god of thunder, Taranis, and described by the MOD as the most advanced aircraft ever built by Britain, costing around £185 million for the first prototype alone. Understandably, the loss of one of these prototypes in late 2015 was something that made some people rather irate, and an opportunity to recover at least something from that failure was a further incentive in keeping Lynn in their possession, as well as avoiding delicate information on advanced military tech from falling out of their hands. The research team on the Taranis was called upon to help with him, whilst technicians, and experts in cybernetics and biotechnology were called upon in secrecy.

He underwent something of a transformation, and as research continued on what was seen as an even more innovative form of weaponry, a "humanoid UAV" he became far more artificial than human. Now something akin to an android, his capabilities and synchronization with his past incarnation became further developed, even as his body itself seemed to change as his soul was further awakened. Having originally been designed to utilise a variety of weapon systems, it was equipped with two internal weapons bays, though the exact weaponry hadn't been finalised. He was thus implanted with some of the weaponry they'd been planning to use, and due to the maliable nature of the UAV, somehow ended up with boobs. Don't ask why or how, though it may have something to do with those weapons bays. So, despite being a six year old, he doesn't look it.

Being trained to some extent by a secret part of the MOD, he was sent to the Academy of Weaponry for a number of reasons, from keeping an eye on things on behalf of the MOD, to the predicted increase in efficiency from honing his abilities there, and the experience he could gain. So it was, that a student more robot than human, ended up enrolling in the academy. Of course, those who sent him can take control of him via satellite link at any point they wish, which they might do to enact their own plans.
