"Teach all the little birds the power of love."

Sekirei: Wings of Fate
GMed by Sephear & Geras

In the year 1999, the mysterious Kamikura island burst to the surface of the ocean. A young researcher decided to explore the island and found an alien spaceship-like construct. Inside were tanks containing life forms: 1 adult, 8 embryos and 99 fertilized eggs. These life forms turned out to be "people" with a genetic code similar to humans. These beings, dubbed "Sekirei", have strange powers beyond anything humans are capable of, but it takes something special to release their true power.

All Sekirei are people that would be considered "beautiful" in one way or another; most are women, some are effeminate men, and very very few (maybe 3 or 4 at the most) are more masculine men. Sekirei can only access the majority of their power(s) through contact with their Ashikabi. Ashikabi are mostly-regular humans whose DNA is compatible with the Sekirei. An Ashikabi and a Sekirei become bonded for life through oral contact (a kiss if that wasn't obvious enough), a process known as being "winged". A Sekirei's power is directly relative to the bond between them and their Ashikabi, as well as how many Sekirei their Ashikabi has.

Every Sekirei has a number, from 1 to 108. Number 1 is the Sekirei who was already an adult when discovered, and is widely accepted as the most powerful, winged or not. 2-9 are the Sekirei discovered as embryos; they are known as "Single Numbers" and are generally as powerful as a regular winged Sekirei before even having an Ashikabi. A Single Number and Ashikabi pair would have a distinct advantage against most others. The Sekirei are part of a scheme called "The Sekirei Plan" that pits them against each other until only one is left and declared the best. There is no telling exactly why.

For the past 18 years most of the Sekirei have been kept in research facilities controlled by the MBI conglomerate, having no acess to the outside world besides TV and whatever MBI tells them. Over this time the Sekirei underwent numerous (surprisingly not abusive) tests and experiments and recently recieved physical augments to be more combat oriented and fit with MBI's designs... some of which were less than clean and innocent. Hiroto Minaka, owner and CEO of MBI, has decided the Sekirei Plan is ready to begin and has released all the Sekirei into Tokyo with one command: Find the humans who will be their Ashikabi.

MBI is an abbreviation for Mid Bio Informatics, a powerful conglomerate founded by Hiroto Minaka, with their headquarters based in Teito Tower and in charge of the Sekirei Plan. With the advanced technology found in the alien ship on Kamikura Island he built up MBI as a pharmaceutical company. Soon after this MBI became an economic, technological and medical network, dominating every field it works in. MBI has enough power and influence to take control of a huge city like Tokyo and to own and keep a company army.

You:

You are one of the Sekirei recently released throughout various parts of Tokyo City to find their Ashikabi, or a regular person who has just unknowingly become involved in the Sekirei Plan. The Sekirei have been cooped up in MBI facilities for years and currently know nothing of the outside world besides what they've seen on TV and that they must try to find their Ashikabi, and that they will have to fight to be the last Sekirei. (The Single Numbers are more knowledgeable of the outside world but have still been kept in MBI facilities for the past year in preparation for the Sekirei Plan.)

The night before MBI releases all of the Sekirei, every Ashikabi has the same dream simultaneously. Each Ashikabi feels as if a hand is gently caressing their cheek and they hear a voice that is soft and sweet but firm and demanding. "Teach all the little birds the power of love... " After awakening the Ashikabi will go on with their lives as normal until the first time they encounter a Sekirei; at which point, whether you bond or not, you find out that you are a part of the Sekirei Plan.

The Sekirei Plan:

Phase One: The Sekirei are sent out to find their Ashikabi, limited fighting is allowed (preferably just with NPCs at this point.) Phase two begins when 90% of the Sekirei have been Winged.

Sekirei SU skeleton:

Name:

Gender (There are male Sekirei, but the female-to-male ratio is about 20 to 1, let's please not see a bunch of male Sekirei SUs trying out be special snowflakes.)

Number: (Any number between 2 and 108. There will be only 2-3 player controlled single numbers. Leave this blank if you want to be one. Single numbers will be chosen based on SU quality as well as other factors.)

Appearance: (1-2 Paragraphs minimum please. All Sekirei must fit with some established definition of beauty. NONE of them are "plain looking" or "normal". Also keep in mind every Sekirei has the Sekirei crest shown at the top of the page on the small of their back. The crest can be any color that shows up well on their skin, and the Sekirei's number is always tattooed right under the crest. Sekirei may also have additional crests elsewhere on their body if they so please.)

Personality: (Once again, 2-3 paragraphs minimum.)

Starting Location: (The city has been divided into four different sections, North, South, East and West. The first people to join will all start in the Northern District until the GMs decide otherwise.)

Destiny: (Put down "alone" if you wish to never have an Ashikabi; be aware that any Sekirei - other than a single number - with no Ashikabi is likely to be very vulnerable. Write down "Destined" if there is an Ashikabi your Sekirei will be reacting to before they meet.. Put down "up to fate" if you will start on your own but are open to an Ashikabi partner. Single numbers cannot be destined to be with a specific Ashikabi unless it's discussed with me ahead of time.)

Abilities: (Just a basic description of what powers your character has and how they fight. No need to start with specific techniques; feel free to add them as they make their first appearances in the RP. Abilities can include things like control over elements, enhanced attributes such as strength or intelligence, or just skills with a specific weapon among other possibilities.)

Norito: (Every Sekirei has an incantation or "norito" they must speak, along with a kiss between them and their Ashikabi that puts them in a heightened state of power. This state largely improves all their usual skills and abilities, as well as allowing them to use their greater techniques. Example: "By the thunderstorm of our pact, our Ashikabi's perils will be destroyed!" Multiple digit Sekirei do not learn their Norito until they are winged, and a Single Number's Norito will change accordingly when they emerge. this may be left blank until you decide on one. )

Greater Techniques: (Your most powerful attacks/techniques, which can only be used after reciting your Norito and kissing your Ashikabi. Single number Sekrei can have one greater technique before they are winged that they can use without an Ashikabi, but they still need their Norito. Add them here as they are learned/used, they are not a requirement to begin with.)

Brief history: (Single numbers/special cases I approve only. Some of the single number Sekirei got to wander the outside world and have experiences of their own before the Sekirei Plan began, but the higher numbers were kept in research facilities and only released after the Sekirei Plan began. If you do wish to be a single number, leave this blank until/if you are approved.)

Ashikabi SU skeleton:

(Note I will be evaluating Ashikabi more harshly than Sekirei as it is more important for a regular person to be believable than a superpowered being cooped up in a lab for over ten years. There will also be limited spots for Ashikabi because the whole system falls apart a bit if there are more Ashikabi than Sekirei, though I haven't decided what that limit is yet.

Name:

Gender:

Age:

Appearance: (1-2 Paragraphs minimum please.)

Personality: (Once again, 2-3 paragraphs minimum.)

Starting Location: (The city has been divided into four different sections, North, South, East and West. The first people to join will all start in the Northern District until the GMs decide otherwise.)

Talents: (What is your character good at and passionate about? Ashikabi can be decent at fighting but that is not their role in the Sekirei Plan, so I don't want to see any "H4Z T0 N1NJ4 5W0RD5 AND PWNS ALL TEH NUBS". Under no circumstances can an Ashikabi fight a Sekirei and do well. Even the weakest Sekirei would annihilate a human in a fight.)

History:

Accepted characters:
Sekirei:

Seiji Taketo
Shiro Itsune
Tatsumi Tatsuya
Aozaki Taeko
Allison Asami Mori
Brady Newman
Pending:

Important NPCs:

Hiroto Minaka: The president of MBI and self-proclaimed Game Master of the Sekirei Plan. Despite his occasional lackadaisical attitude, he is not a man to be trifled with. Make no mistake, Hiroto Minaka is the power that rules over Tokyo.

Sekirei #1 The Witch-Knight Sekirei: The Sekirei whose body was already developed to adulthood when originally discovered by Minaka and his assistant. Most Sekirei and most MBI employees know only of her title, and the fact that her strength is unparalleled even without an Ashikabi, so much so that MBI can't even get her back. The Discipline Squad, the other Single Numbers, and a very few privileged MBI employees know her name, and what she looks like, some may have even met her. Despite her power being impossible to sense, there is no doubt that any Sekirei who met her would almost instinctively know it.

Discipline Squad (The Discipline Squad Sekirei have access to three greater abilities like winged Sekirei would. They are also all immensely powerful, even a single number likely couldn't challenge one of them without a very strong bond with an Ashikabi first.)
#63 Demi Krouse
#64 Kana
#65 Tatsumaki-Hagane (Maki)

Other information:

Rules:

Of course first and foremost all rules of PC and the Roleplay Corner apply beside and ABOVE my own rules.
An Ashikabi can have multiple Sekirei, but a Sekirei cannot have more than one Ashikabi.
Romance is an integral part of this story; the only limit I will put on it is to watch your language and to not get too descriptive of sexual actions/thoughts. If you are particularly averse to reading or writing romance, sadly this isn't the roleplay for you.
A Sekirei knows who is meant to be their Ashikabi by the reaction of deep emotions and desire to be with that person that their body has. This reaction can come about two ways: sometimes a Sekirei's body reacts to an Ashikabi's on its own, even potentially from all the way across the city. Other times there is no particular reaction even upon meeting, but once the Sekirei begins to feel romantic interest in an Ashikabi their body reacts accordingly. The bond is not final until a Sekirei is "Winged" but once their body begins reacting to an Ashikabi the reactions will grow stronger and stronger for that person until they are winged. If a Sekirei fights their body's reactions for too long their power will start to become unstable, eventually they will become poisoned by their own power and die. Sekirei's bodies never react to more than one Ashikabi unless the one they react to dies before they are winged, but they can still be winged by any Ashikabi after they've begun reacting to another one.
Single Numbers don't form bonds as easily as the rest. They have already had time to live outside before the Sekirei plan, so they are much more world-weary and an Ashikabi must prove they are worthy of their love to cause a reaction within them. Though a Single Number CAN react to an Ashikabi without these feelings forming first, it is unheard of.
There is no such thing as a willingly-winged Sekirei who just doesn't like their Ashikabi. They may have problems with them and not get along great, but ultimately a Sekirei always has feelings of affection for their Ashikabi with time. Ashikabi are not necessarily under the same restriction, but it's safe to assume that if someone wings a Sekirei, they want them.
A battle between two Sekirei is almost always a fight to the death unless the winner decides they want to fight again later. A battle is decided when one Sekirei either dies or is deactivated. A Sekirei is deactivated by their opponent placing a hand on their Sekirei Crest (located on the back right beneath the neck) and reciting their Norito.
Sekirei don't just spar for fun or training unless they share an Ashikabi, so think carefully before you start a fight with another PC Sekirei. If you do start a fight, decide with the person you challenge ahead of time how the fight will end, and be prepared for the possible death of your character. As mentioned earlier, not every fight has to end in someone's death, but non-lethal fights between Sekirei do not happen very often.
The Sekirei's fighting style is completely up to the player, but there are a few restrictions on their actual abilities. A Sekirei doesn't just have one ability, but their abilities always share one theme. For instance: control over an element, the strength to crush stone with your bare hands, super fast reflexes, etc.
A Sekirei can be winged against their will, but you never take another person's free will out of the occasion. Besides the fact that no human could overpower a Sekirei, you must be fair to your fellow roleplayers. An Ashikabi can find a way to forcefully wing a Sekirei for story purposes, but both players must agree beforehand.
Remember: Single Number Sekirei are almost always more powerful than the higher numbers. (It is quite possible for 2 digit Sekirei to become more powerful than single numbers but only if their bond with their Ashikabi is stronger.) So try to be reasonable in limiting their power. However, single numbers don't just get to be OP either; once again please try and be fair to your fellow RPers.
This one is more of a side not but I feel the need to warn everyone regardless. While two players are more than welcome to work out a pairing between themselves, that simply isn't as fun as a surprise ;). For that, and a fair number of other reasons, who a player-controlled Sekirei is winged by is almost entirely up to the Sekirei player. An Ashikabi player actually has very little if any say in the matter. Of course IC an Ashikabi could still be the one to initiate the kiss if it's written convincingly, but that would still have to be worked out between players ahead of time.

Sekirei Plan Rules: (Players are allowed to break these rules within reason, just be aware of the possible consequences. Any Sekirei who breaks the Plan's rules might be targeted by the Discipline Squad, a team of single and two-digit Sekirei even more powerful than most winged single numbers (due to augments from MBI) depending on the severity of their infraction.)

1. Sekirei Battles are to be one on one, ganging up on a single victim will not be tolerated. A battle is meant to be directly between two Sekriei, an Ashikabi should not be a target.

2. When a Sekirei ceases functioning it is an unspoken rule for the victor to guard their opponent until MBI picks up the body. This is not an established rule, just a courtesy. But if a Sekirei were to ignore this kindness it would likely anger many other Sekirei, making the perpetrator a target nonetheless.

3. Sekirei can receive financial support from MBI in the form of debit cards suitable for an almost unlimited number of small purchases. The moment a Sekirei breaks one of the other rules the card is voided. And if a Sekirei should stand against MBI for any reason they become ineligible for support and and are considered permanent targets of the Discipline Squad. Ashikabi are not eligible for MBI support to begin with.

Other (Sekirei Plan) rules will be revealed as new Phases begin.

Special Services offered by the GMs: (Please note these are completely optional, any of these things may be done by the player of the character(s) instead. But the GMs very much enjoy assisting in them.

1. Sekirei Titles: GMs will give each Sekirei a custom title tailored to their abilities and personalities.
2. Emergences: GM's also offer to write out the actual scene of a Sekirei being winged (starting immediately after they kiss their Ashikabi the first time) Sephy especially enjoys these. http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=8187767&postcount=44 Please take a look at the first time this was done in the original Wings of Fate if you'd like an example of what you can expect from this service.

Lucifer-san · Mar 30, 2016

"What you know isn't always the truth, that should've been clear from the start.
Name: Layfe

Gender: Male

Number: Lucky Number 7

Appearance: Layfe has a more teenage look to himself with his crimson eyes and clean shaven face. His face does not have much baby fat left leaving it quite angular. Layfe sports short black hair that is kind of messy, which gives him a roguish appeal. Layfe is rather partial to what he wears and doesn't care too much as long as it looks nice. He wears a pair of dark blue jeans, black sneakers, a black t-shirt, a red jacket with long sleeves, overall his appearance fits in mostly with the population and he stands out mainly because of his alluring appearance.

Layfe stands at about 5'10" and looks rather lean instead of being packed with muscles. However, his build belies the muscles he does have leaving him with a build more like that of an Olympic track runner. His complexion is a bit pale, but it only serves to make him more alluring. When in combat he tends to don a long black coat over his normal attire.

Personality: Layfe is a rather intelligent young fellow and uses it his advantage regularly, though he usually doesn't like to take advantage of innocents. He is rather playful and is willing to tease others and seems to have a sort of unnatural confidence about him. He uses tactics to overwhelm foes that he can't straight out beat and is very serious when the situation requires him to be so. Besides his intelligence Layfe is somewhat lazy but rather friendly and usually courteous. He is usually willing to help if asked by people he can sense have no ill will. Despite his general nice demeanor Layfe is much more scheming than one would think.

Willing to do nearly anything it takes to accomplish his goals, Layfe will not particulalry care about the collateral damage of whatever grand scheme he might have. All that is important to him is that the outcome he wants is met, though he is at the very least nice enough to try and minimize any possible damages that might occur from what he is doing. Determined to do whatever he finds to be the right thing, Layfe has an indomitable will.[FONT=&quot]

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Starting Location[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: North District

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Destiny[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: Up to fate

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Abilities[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: Layfe is able to control the senses of people around him via illusions. These illusions are vivid enough that they can make the target misinterpret another person's form, shape, mass, feel, and even smell to be an enemy's. The illusions last as long as he wants, but the bigger and more complicated the illusions are the more draining they are to hold. However, when the illusions are up they are near-inperceptible, though someone with enough power might be able to use pure instinct to get around the illusions. Simple illusions take moments to form, while larger scale illusions would take several seconds to minutes usually.

To supplement this ability, Layfe has an affinity to swordsmanship and carries along with him a tanto. His skill with the blade is great, but he prefers to keep this under wraps until the last possible second and will use his illusions much more frequently. One of his tactics actually revolves around him tricking the target by making them think that he casts his illusions via his sword, which is definitely not true. Enhanced strength and dexterity make him a threat even without his illusions, though his strength is not nearly high enough to do something like, slice a battleship in half.

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Norito[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: "[/FONT][FONT=&quot]By the will of my Ashikabi, I shall show you [/FONT][FONT=&quot]my truth[/FONT][FONT=&quot]."[/FONT][FONT=&quot]

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Greater Techniques[/FONT][FONT=&quot]:

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Secret [/FONT][FONT=&quot]for now[/FONT][FONT=&quot]~[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Brief History:[/FONT][FONT=&quot] When released, Layfe deigned to spend his time examining the battlefield that was to come. Making note of locations that might be important or have potential strategic value, Layfe started making plans. However, all of his time wasn't just spent on such things, he also explored Tokyo and took in the culture and spent some time on learning how to cook. With his cooking skills he was able to score himself a small job working at a ramen joint. He may or may not have also made several small downpayments on a place that he is trying to own.[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot][/FONT][/FONT] [/FONT]

Songbird · Mar 30, 2016

tl;dr tits

Spoiler:

静か: Shizuka^♀ #12
"May my touch of frost bring silence to all who try to harm my Ashikabi."

Appearance

A voluptuous babe by any metric, Shizuka stands 5'6", weighing 116lbs. It's entirely possible that more than 10% of that weight is in her boobs. They're pretty damn big, perkily jutting out ahead of the rest of her body, and she has a habit of crossing her arms underneath and propping them up just a little bit further.

Creamy white skin and a smiling face manage to take some of the focus with the thanks of quite literally glittering night blue eyes, framed by long, waist-length black hair that falls over her chest. Even the individual strands seem to shine, drawing additional attention to her slender arms, motherly hips and tight thighs you could melt between. At her lower back, where her Crest is located, it shows as a faded blue and white.

Her outfit changes wildly by the day, and sometimes by the hour, as Shizuka took a great liking to cosplay. Her clothes usually follow a theme of anime and game characters that she'd seen on TV, or things like french maid and gothic lolita outfits.

Personality

"Don't worry. I'll keep you warm."

An exceptionally caring and devoted Sekirei, it wouldn't be a stretch to call her a tad obsessive, going to great lengths to keep others smiling for her. Although, she isn't above a little teasing if she sees fit. She has an almost unhealthy attachment to cute things, as well. It wouldn't be unusual for her to be carrying a stuffed animal, or even a real one. Childish, perhaps, but she doesn't see the problem.

Shizuka can come off a little egotistical sometimes. She gives credit where it's due, including to herself, and loves to present her work with a flair. She isn't much a fighter, though. If she had a choice, she wouldn't fight anyone. On the other hand, given the chance, she enjoys watching others duke it out, eating a snack in the background.

If she does get angered (and insulting her outfits is a good way to make it happen), Shizuka is passive-aggressive, smiling sweetly while carrying an aura of impending death.

Abilities

A cryokinetic type, Shizuka is freely able to create and control snow and ice as she desires. Opting to avoid a fight when possible, she often uses her powers as a method to disable aggressors with no resistance, rather than attacking or defending outright. However, her sense of style gets the better of her, and she overdelivers on the regular. She doesn't just cage or entomb someone; Shizuka has to make it look good, like blooming rose petals, or rolling someone into a snowman.

While not entirely suited for combat, Shizuka also has enough strength in her body to effortlessly carry an adult on her back, and incredible flexibility and dexterity to move like flowing water even with two considerable weights attached to her torso.

Sneaky Sneaky

When the single-numbered Sekirei were released into the city early, Shizuka snuck out and followed along. During that time, Shizuka discovered that she could feel the presence of her Ashikabi even without having met, and was determined to find them after the Sekirei Plan began in full. While she was required to return to the island soon enough, Shizuka was officially released early once more as a result.

And now a mute.

Spoiler:

Hibiki^♀ #6
"No matter what comes, I will always be here with you, my Ashikabi."

Appearance

Hibiki is a petite young lady, as attractive as expected of a Sekirei, with a comely fashion sense to match. Her skin is a fair white, her build slight and particularly delicate at only 5'3, and a modest figure easily concealed by her outfits. Her more minute features are equally soft with a tiny button nose, slim lips, and large, brilliantly blue eyes marred by flecks of silver. Long, tawny brown hair falls down her head with streaks of golden blonde throughout, reaching long past her hips and tied back in a single ponytail with an equally bright blue bow.

In addition to her crest, which is a solid white, Hibiki's number shows up on her lower back. Often hidden by her hair, it appears as a bold six three inches tall and two wide.

Personality

Hibiki is a very friendly and curious girl who loves to smile, but also very quiet. Not by choice—she lacks a voice, being mute. Her silence has helped her keep her calm almost all of the time, but Hibiki's a bit of a klutz sometimes. She can handle herself rather gracefully until she trips over herself, where she'll get easily embarrassed and try to hide her discontent. Other than that, she loves to cook and bake, enjoying the taste of candies and sweet things, and often adding sweet flavors into even spicy foods she makes. For the few more permanent things she calls her own, Hibiki can be very possessive, even if she doesn't always look it. She can't stand getting her clothes dirty, compulsively keeps track of her things, and greatly cherishes the things she's given.

Ability: Shockwave

While packing comparatively weak physical power within herself, Hibiki's extremely quick and durable, and controls vibrations with terrifying proficiency. She can generate shockwaves of varying size and type strong enough to blow anything away, or soft enough to allow her to levitate. Normally, her offense and defense alike are executed through blunt force—her hands and feet. With it, she creates powerful bursts much like earthquakes and sonic booms. It doesn't need contact to take effect, either, as Hibiki can create mid-range missiles through striking the air.

Hibiki carries a tactical knife around as well, hidden against her thigh or in one of her boots. Not for cutting people directly, but for creating blade-type shockwaves from a distance. Unlike her regular strikes, Hibiki can also leave her blades where they're created in suspension, able to be triggered at any point later.

Early Release

When the single-numbered Sekirei were let off the island, herself included, Hibiki took up residence above a maid café called May Queen Nyan-Nyan, where the waitresses donned cat ears and a matching tail in addition to their maid outfits. There, she started working as a chef. Soon enough, Hibiki decided she could use it as an effective way to search for her Ashikabi—someone who could listen to her silence—and took a waitress position for herself, as well. Despite her inability to speak directly, her sweet food and divine smile made her a fan favorite.

Sonata · Mar 30, 2016

Name: Jazmine

Gender: Grill

Number: 97

Appearance: Jazmine is 6'3" with caramel skin and the typical thick, curly black hair common in people of her apparent racial background. What at times is let loose into an afro that makes her appear at least six inches taller, is often pulled up into a fashionable 'puff hawk' style atop her head. Four tightly wound and bound tufts of hair come together atop her head in the form of a Mohawk, while a single curled lock dangles, bouncing freely against her left cheek. Masculine jawline connects with high cheekbones creating a beautifully full canvas for her features. Freckles are splattered across the petite bridge of the girl's upturned nose, connecting her hazel eyes. Thick, wide lips are covered heavily in black or pink lipstick, near perfectly accentuating the pearls within her mouth. And slightly pointed ears are decorated with a cute auricle style piercing in the left - the shape of a heart - and a more prominent straight bar industrial in her right.

Jazmine has long legs and arms with a short torso. Thick thighs, strong slender calves and a size eleven shoe. Her chest is almost completely flat just barely pushing her top away from her chest, and she believes what was supposed to be there actually ended up moving down to her thighs and butt. The girl wears half-and-half bleached high-waisted denim shorts with a loose-fitting white camisole tucked haphazardly in to them. She wears thigh high black socks with frilly white lace at the top with black high top sneakers. She's been called both man and woman before when she's forgotten to even apply lipstick, falling into that grey androgynous zone until she puts on a dress or a gown to show off the slender and more feminine curve of her body.

Personality: Jazmine loves to paint and imagine the outside world for what it could be. She has long since ceased to watch the news, believing that the people outside can be and will be better than that which is depicted on the television. The girl spends most of her time staring at the stars during the night and painting the city during the day, finding a sense of peace within herself when she finishes a painting - she believes that the view of the sun setting behind the 'hand' of downtown is the most beautiful thing.

When she's not painting or out watching world in general, she finds inspiration in watching movies and listening to music. She oftentimes will quote single lines from movies, shows or songs which she's recently enjoyed if they fit the moment. Other times she'll base her artwork around a line, such as the one that Robin Williams had in Good Will Hunting; 'Real loss is only possible when you love something more than you love yourself'. The quote struck her as odd, never having ever really felt something for another person. It intrigued her, the idea and the emotion caused her a great deal of stress as she painfully attempted to depict the feeling of loss and of love without having either in herself to build off of. By far her favorite movie would be Amélie.

When she paints she prefers to draw static things like the city, a photograph or a statue. Though she has painted the faces of passing people and Sekirei before, she's not found them interesting enough to actually hold her attention. To her, there's more of a thrill in painting something that is always there and should always stay relatively the same routinely and watching as it slowly changes; drawing or painting the faces of random people or things that she'll likely never see again holds little interest for her as she can't compare them in the same way that she can the city, a statue or other static things. Jazmine dislikes directly interacting with others, preferring to take a backseat in their lives and stand by as a simple watcher. She expresses her emotions and feelings towards them and things in their lives through her paintings, whether those be abstract streaks of paint slammed haphazardly across a canvas or something more practical like a depiction of herself or another crying is entirely up to chance.

Jazmine hates when others bring up the topic of her appearance. She couldn't care less about what she looks like and doesn't believe her appearance really deserves the time of day. With the time that she would waste doing her hair up or applying makeup she could have already made a start and possibly even finished several sketches or a smaller painting. However, when she does decide to do something with her hair her imaginative side takes hold and keeps her in front of a mirror for several hours as she ensures that every bit of it is perfect and so firmly held that it won't be coming undone for a considerable amount of time.

Starting Location: North side

Destiny: Let the fates decide

Abilities: Chromakinesis
- camoflauge through changing the pigment of her skin
- absorb and redistribute color through contact with her or her hair. different colors create different effects at a basic level ie red burns, blue makes water, yellow shocks, brown creates physical pathways etc
- can create physical objects using color. their strength relies on how much color she uses to create them and how detailed they are. if she makes a hollow shape it'll function like a hollow object, but if she fills it with something then it will take on the effect and whatever strength is added from the color used
- her color supply is not infinite. everything besides changing the pigment of her skin will use the pigmentation of her skin as power for her color manipulation, unless she has absorbed a color from elsewhere. power runs out when her skin turns completely white. when she's completely white she becomes fragile and her physical capabilities are significantly lessened.
-her basic physical strength is very low, being one of the frailest among fellow Sekirei but still considerably stronger than most men, however objects created with her colors she can lift as if they're weightless, though they will function against others completely different. if she makes a cube that's 10ftx10ftx10ft and then fills it with blue/water she'll handle it like its a piece of paper but it will always actually be the weight of such a size box filled with water. When it is dropped or hits an opponent they will feel the appropriate pressure from that mass.

Norito: "With love as my pallet and our hands as my brush, I shall paint a world of beauty for my Ashikabi and I." Or something like that.

As if you could keep me away, Seffy.

Loving all this attention for my lovely little brainchild~ I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with :D

Fort PokePower · Mar 31, 2016

Just posting Fia's original SU for now. I'll tweak it later, probably tomorrow since I have the day off.

Sekirei SU

Name: Fia "Astria"

Gender: Female

Number:

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Fia has wide, clear eyes the color of a perfectly blue, cloudless sky; their color darkens to a deep ocean blue when she is in deep thought or irritated. Straight, wispy, silvery white hair falls down her back and just reaches nearly to her knees. No matter how much the wind may blow it, or how ruffled it may get, it always seems to fall perfectly back into place with little to no effort on her part.

Her skin is extremely pale with only a slight peachy color to it. She doesn't have much of a bust to speak of, but what she does have suits her build perfectly. She isn't very tall, only being a childish height of about 4'9", but with her graceful movement, mature tone of voice, and style of clothing she is difficult to see as a child. Her body is slim and petite with slight curves. What compliments her more than even her appearance, however, is her captivating voice that bests even the sweetest songs of the birds.

She dislikes colorless, mundane clothing and insists on wearing clothes that are brilliantly colored and made of fine, expensive materials. However, she dislikes anything too flashy and goes instead for a more graceful beauty. She also dislikes wearing anything with long sleeves and will bear the cold for as long as she can before submitting to wearing a sweater of any kind, as she believes it degrades from her beauty. She tries to switch her clothes up daily and dislikes having to reuse clothes. The outfits she wears usually share similarities to each other, these similarities being a slim-fitting, usually sleeveless short dress made of silk; A ribbon or bow of some color that contrasts brightly with her hair, such as blood red or bright pink; tights or stockings over her legs; and delicate dress sandals on her feet. She avoids shoes with high heels, as they hinder her mobility. Even with her particular taste in clothing, she isn't so picky with her accessories, as she wears a pink ribbon around her right wrist and a metallic red band around her left wrist. On the rare occasions that she feels the need to wear makeup, she puts it on lightly and simply uses it to accentuate her already incredible beauty.

Personality: Every movement Fia makes is made with utmost grace, and every words she speaks is spoken with absolute calm. She very rarely raises her voice in anger, even if such emotions roil beneath her skin. She finds it amusing to watch as those intent on angering her grow frustrated with her serene nature. One of the few things that can rile her is if one of her possessions is harmed, whether that possession be an item or a person. This is especially so since she despises sharing with anyone and keeps a close hold on what she considers to be hers. Even so, outwardly she will typically retain a cold calm until she has enacted her vengeance in whatever demeaning way she finds suitable.

Though she may seem to be completely tranquil, she is innately cruel and sadistic. She exercises her savage interests on those she dislikes (or simply doesn't care for) by plunging her way into their deepest thoughts through sly and manipulative ways, then using their greatest fears to pull their strings and knock them down. The greater her hatred of the person, the more torturous she is when ripping them slowly apart. Besides finding pleasure in the emotional pain of others, she also finds it in physical pain. In a fight, if she has the upper hand she'll purposefully draw it out for as long as possible just to see how much she can beat them before they fall and watch as hopelessness fills their eyes. Her teasing isn't always cruel, however; she is constantly teasing and laughing at others faults just to annoy them. She is also incredibly smug and confident in her abilities - however, she knows when she's been bested and what fights should be avoided and will rarely engage in a fight where she is guaranteed to lose.

Fia can be very particular about the things she wants. She'll only eat the finest foods and wear clothing made of the best materials. Anything dull or bland, taste or look wise, she instantly rejects. If she is going to willingly associate with someone, she'll push them to dress better, eat better, and even clean themselves better so that they don't reflect badly on her when they're in her presence. Men beware: she will bewitch them, seduce them, convince them to spend every dime on her, then drop them without letting them lay even a finger on her body.

Strangely enough for someone as conniving and sly as Fia, she takes her promises very seriously, and thus only makes them if she truly intends to keep them. It's not just a matter of her saying that she'll do something - she has to say the phrase "I promise", and then she's locked in and won't go back on her word even if it kills her.

Starting Location: Northern District

Destiny: Up to Fate

Abilities: Like herself, Fia's abilities are very graceful and enticingly beautiful, yet at the same time dangerous. In its most basic form, she can create orbs of blue fire and cause flames of the same color to dance across her skin, to shooting streams of flames from the tips of her fingers. She can further this ability, however, by singing. The pitch and tone of the music manipulates her flames. The higher pitched her voice, the more brightly the flames burn; the lower her voice, the dimmer and calmer they become.

The flames do more than just burn, though. She can manipulate them into different forms as well, plus control who they burn. She uses her imagination and music to manipulate the flames. Calm, soothing songs are better for manipulating the flames into a more peaceful, tranquil state make the flames easier to mold into intricate shapes. More violent, angry songs make for fiercer, more unpredictable flames and frightening creations. One particular song she often uses that has always been imprinted into her mind gives her a pair of flaming wings that allow her to fly.

Her emotions play a part in her ability as well. The calmer she is, the more controlled the flames are. The more frustrated she gets, the wilder and more powerful the flames become. Though it's never happened before, if Fia were to completely snap and lose all composure, her flames would become like a wildfire and be difficult for even her to control properly.

Norito: "The flames of our melody will burn those who dare to defy my Ashikabi to ashes!"

Greater Techniques:
Phoenix Storm- Fia begins with a soft melodic tune that causes a cloud of blue fire to form and swirl in the sky. Suddenly, she raises the pitch sharply and holds it as the fire transforms into a number of fiery birds which crash down towards the target. The longer she continues he melody, the more fiery birds there are. If she breaks off even once during this melody, the fire will dissipate.

Brief history: When Fia was released along with the rest of the Single Numbers, her first course of action was to generate enough income in that short time period to get herself a lavish, upclass place to live. With her alluring voice and looks, it was easy enough for her to quickly become famous throughout Tokyo as Fia "Astria", the mysterious, beautiful young singer who would more often than not perform for rich, private parties with the rare live performance for a larger crowd. Fia accumulated a large amount of money from these performances and was easily able to afford a decent condo to live in, while using the financial support from the MBI for daily necessities such as food and clothing.

Dusty · Mar 31, 2016

Shiro Itsune
// 21 // MALE // NORTHERN DISTRICT //
// ASHIKABI //

Appearance

Shiro is a bit taller than the average Japanese male, standing about 180 cm, and is very physically fit having a past in athletics. He is a bit on the lighter side, rather skinny really. His mother jokingly would say that others must think she never feeds him because of how skinny he is, but Shiro is not the kind to miss a meal. His mother also thinks he has a fairly handsome face (much to his embarrassment whenever she says so), although Shiro doesn't really agree, and has never had much time for a relationship anyway.

Shio's face is almost always smiling, showing his practically perfect white teeth (his mother can be a bit of a Nazi when it comes to somethings). His black hair he likes to keep short and usually spikes it up, finding long hair annoying and getting in his face when he needs to move quickly. Probably the most unusual thing about Shiro is his eyes, being a deep green like the color of moss. No one in his family is really sure where his eyes came from, as no one in the family's past has had green eyes.

When it comes to wearing clothes, Shiro always likes utility over fashion. He likes to wear shorts whenever possible, and sweatpants whenever it's too cold for shorts. For some reason he hates jeans or any other sort of pants, although he has never given anyone a reason why. When it comes to shirts, t shirts or polos are what he usually wears. He was sponsored for a short time by a few athletic companies, and so he ended up with lots of sports clothing, and really likes athletic polos. His idea of fancy or date clothing is a bit under par, usually consisting of exactly what his normal attire is.

Personality

Shiro is a kind of happy go lucky kind of guy, excited by just about everything, and seemingly overjoyed simply to be alive. Despite setbacks in his life, he usually pushes past those setbacks with positivity and pure determination. That determination is probably one thing that really defines him, if he finds a task and he sets his mind to it, there is nothing that will stop him. His determination is often seen as being pig headed, unable to actually adapt and change when things about his situation change.

In terms of friends, Shiro makes friends with people very easily, but has a hard time forming true and strong relationships with other people. Many of his friendships are merely skin deep, and most conversations never get past the day to day chit chat like the weather or how each other's families are doing. The only true friends that Shiro has are those that he has been friends with for years, since childhood really. Those people see a slightly different side of Shiro, more serious than his eternally positive self. In truth, Shiro is insecure, and he tries to use his positivity to mask that and make people like him more.

Those friends who are close to Shiro, those who really know him on a deeper level, he cares about deeply. Not really in any romantic sense, but as close friends he cares about their well being. When it comes to others, Shiro typically wants people to like him, so he doesn't really criticize them for poor decisions. But those that he does care about, he will often point out mistakes they've made or flaws they need to work on. At first this is irritating and hurtful for his close friends until they realize that he is just trying to care and protect them. Not that Shiro's advice is always good, he tends to make assumptions about situations, and give advice purely from his point of view, usually not taking other views into perspective.

Talents

Shiro is a fairly athletic person, and his main talents lay in tennis. While in high school, he played competitively on the school team and excelled. He was hoping to go pro, and had placed well in numerous national tournaments. Several sponsors had even scouted him, however he ended up tearing a ligament in his leg during a match, essentially ending his tennis career. The surgery and recovery went well, but he was not as fast as he once was and now only plays casually, having had to give up all hopes of going pro in the sport.

He did not really excel at most subjects when in school, getting decent grades in subjects like math and science. He does have a passion for history though, loving to study times past, as well as reading older literature. Shiro has an excellent memory when it comes to remembering facts about the past, and has a particular fondness for military history.

History

Shiro grew up in a fairly normal household. The only child of two working parents, he grew up with a certain amount of independence, having had to learn how to do things on his own without his parents to coddle him. His father is an accountant, working for a major bank in Japan, and often goes on business trips to other places in Japan or even overseas. His mother works more to keep busy than anything else, she always said she would probably go insane if she had to stay in the house all day, so she would work at a flower boutique a few blocks down from the house.

When it came to making friends around the neighborhood and at school, Shiro was not very good at it at first. He was a bit of a grumpy child at first, although not for any real reason other than he was just an immature kid. Through most of primary school he had a hard time making friends, and spent most of his time alone. So when his father announced to the family they would be moving to Tokyo, half the country away, Shiro didn't really mind. He didn't have that many friends here, and none he would really mind leaving behind.

The family moved just before Shiro started secondary school, and so he looked at his new school with the possibility of actually having friends, and maybe even being popular. Having the vision in mind of being popular at his new school, Shiro tried to change himself through his attitude. He tried to be more positive, and just being happy in general. Unfortunately many of the students had gone to primary school together, and a lot of cliques were already formed, exclusive groups that didn't want anything to do with some suburban kid. What essentially saved his social life was becoming friends with another outcast, a girl name Rina who also moved from the country. The two became good friends, and soon Shiro stopped caring about trying to be friends with everyone and be popular, happy with his new friend.

He did eventually become popular, mostly due to Rina. Their friend group slowly grew, but a lot of why he became popular was because Rina became quite physically attractive in the later days of secondary school and into high school. Although Shiro never saw her as more than a close friend, a lot of other students, both male and female, suddenly wanted to become friends with Shiro and more importantly Rina. Shiro, mostly oblivious to the others intentions, was fine with this, happy to have more friends. Rina, however, became more secluded and didn't really like the attention.

Shiro essentially hit his stride in secondary school and into high school. He discovered his passion, tennis, in middle school during gym class one day, and immediately fell in love with the sport. By the time he was in high school, he was playing competitively, and was becoming quite good despite the short amount of time he had been playing. Finally having some sort of goal in mind, Shiro focused all of his spare time on the sport, and quickly gained skill, winning or placing highly in regional and even a couple national tournaments. He continued to play through high school, and was even looking to go on to play professionally after high school when he overextended his left leg during a match and tore two of the ligaments in his knee. Although he recovered, the surgery and rehab kept him off the court for a while, and he still is not nearly as fast and agile as he once was. Unfortunately, his career in tennis was over from a competitive standpoint.

Having lost the ability to play the sport he loves, at least competitively, he had to turn his attention elsewhere. He hadn't planned on doing any college beforehand, wanting to focus on athletics instead, but his accident changed that plan. Deciding to focus on the only subject he enjoyed, he went to college focusing on a history degree. He knew that there was little purpose for such a degree in the real world, but he didn't know what else to do at the time. His current idea is to go into teaching history, preferably at a high school or college level, and his father is more than happy to supply the money for Shiro to attend school.

Shiro has never been extremely successful with relationships. He did have a few girls who were rather forward with him in high school, but he never pursued those relationships because he wanted to instead focus on tennis. After his accident he had a brief relationship with his friend Rina, but after about a year the two decided that they were much happier simply being friends. Since then he has remained single, not really finding anyone who really interested him and who he could connect with on a deeper level.

Alright, there we go! I do actually want to make a second character, but I think I am going to wait to see if I want to make a Sekirei or another Ashikabi. I have ideas for both, I just want to see which we need more of and make that.

Groc · Mar 31, 2016

Name: Lyra

Gender: Female

Number: 42

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Lyra is a tall, slender girl standing 6' tall. She has little in the way of curves or body fat, instead having a lean build with firm, wiry muscle. Her skin is a smooth, creamy color, and her hair was originally platinum blonde, but she dyes it seafoam green, and wears it loose so that it reaches her shoulders. Her most striking feature (once you get past the hair) is her amber eyes, which almost seem to glitter like gold when she gets excited.

She prefers flashy exotic clothes, with her favorite colors being white and green. The outfit she's most fond of consists of translucent silk pants, black soft sandals, and a green shawl that wraps around her torso. She accessorizes with black silk bracers, a black belt with trailing green ribbons on the back, and thin golden bracelets around her upper arms. Overall, her outfit is designed to be flashy and draw attention to herself. When she wants to be less overt, she'll throw on a white button-up shirt, but she rarely bothers to actually button it, preferring to leave it open. Her bracers each have a ring that her shawl can clip onto, so it can attach to either arm when not wrapped around her.

Personality: Lyra seems to perpetually have a smile on her face, and likes to make others happy as well. She is always cheerful and excited, and tries to make the best out of any situation, especially when it comes to helping others. Whether it's by baking them some muffins, helping them move a couch, or even just offering a hand to get them back on their feet, Lyra is happy to help. Because everyone's her friend, and she loves to see her friends smile. She's funny, kind, and quite a great person to hang around with, but everyone has their flaws.

As cheerful as she may be, Lyra can be quite a perfectionist. She sets ridiculous standards for herself, even if she doesn't expect anyone else to live up to them. She is also quite an envious person, especially when she sees someone being better than her. Between these and her temper, which is slow to rise but long lasting, she sometimes just snaps.

When she's in a bad mood, Lyra will do anything to get revenge, and have fun causing mischief and mayhem. However, this will be the only thing she'll care about. New problems are easy to ignore, shrug off, or just laugh away. She'll single-mindedly focus on her goal, but she still likes to have a good time, and will cool down eventually, usually pretending that she didn't do anything wrong.

Starting Location: Northern District

Destiny: Up to fate...

Abilities: Lyra's primary ability allows her total control of any silk that touches her skin. This is why most of her clothes are made of silk, and it allows her to use her shawl as an extra limb. Beyond just controlling it, she has limited ability to modify its structure, letting it be soft as clouds or as strong as steel. One of her favorite uses for this power is forming a pair of swords from silk ribbons.

She can control silk, or even let it control her. When wearing silk, she can move it (and by extension, herself) with superhuman speed and reflexes for a very short time. Using her power this way is exhausting, and requires a much higher calorie intake, so she'll often be seen eating or drinking, and tends to crash after long fights.

Beyond her powers, she's also an accomplished swordswoman, and is ambidextrous. She's not very strong or tough, but is a fast runner and has a lot of stamina when not using her superspeed.

Norito: "With the speed of my pact, my Ashikabi is met with silk hiding steel."

Greater Techniques: None known yet.

Brief History: She was kept in a research facility and only released after the Sekirei Plan began.

Ok everybody time for the first round of GM STUPH.

Spoiler:

Let me just say first and foremost

Songbird said:
tl;dr tits

ACCEPTED ACCEPTED ACCEPTED...Not because I only read that part or anything >.> I just like the SU...*coughs*

Ok next is Godzil. Geras and I both like Lyra quite a bit, we each only have one concern, which I will share with you privately. Lyra is Pending! But very likely to be Accepted! Quite soon.

Stardust your SU seems mostly fine, I think I just had a few small things that urked me, but work has drained my brain. I'll take another look at your SU after sleep and let you know, hit me up in case I forget.

Single Numbers: Both excellent SUs. Fort, Fia is fantastic as ever and will be tough competition for anyone else that wants a Single Number. Lucibro, I very much like the new iteration of Layfe, I only have one small nitpick, which I already sent to you. The Single Numbers are both Pending! Because I can't play favorites for legacy, and at least need enough competition so that SOMEBODY is getting denied before I accept any single numbers, but it'll be a tough sell to beat Layfe and Fia.

Alvey: Not much to say since you know, computers are jerks sometimes. I mostly like what I see except for two things, which are both nitpicks more than real complaints.
1. Using the word ethnicity, Sekirei don't really have those.
2. Maybe you could make her taller? So far all the female Sekirei except Shizuka are very short ._. And her shortness won't stand out like you pointed out in the SU with all these other midgets around~

Time for the GM's SU. Yes I'm one of those people with bad enough taste to make a character that's a PC in their own RP and not just a plot device.
There will probably be a maximum number, but if there is it will be somewhere around 5 Ashikabi and 10 Sekirei, probably even bigger than that. If anything there's more of a minimum number, we want at least 3 Ashikabi and 4 or 5 Sekirei before we start. And considering how slow things are going right now i'm sure we'll have room for you, just keep tabs =P I'm always glad to hear of interest in Wings of Fate and I look forward to seeing an SU from you.

Well, here's my main character sheet:

Spoiler:

Grif of Hearts · Apr 2, 2016

Soleil Astraea ^♀ — Sekirei #37

Starting Location: North.
Destiny: Entirely up to fate.
Norito: "By my celestial light may the stars always guide your way, my dearest Ashikabi!"

Appearance

Soleil truly is the quintessential Sekirei. Her appearance is ultimately flawless with soft, gently sunkissed skin completely untouched by blemishes, and a slender, perfectly proportioned hourglass figure that stands just shy of 5'7 feet tall. Her facial features are equally feminine, with large eyes in an undeniably bright shade of gold, long eyelashes, and full rose-coloured lips often curled into a gentle, comforting smile. Her hair is long, thick, and coils into loose spirals, long enough to reach down to her hips, and is in the most vibrant golden blonde. A few locks of her hair are instead a silvery white, mostly along her fringe and the sides of her face, and weave effortlessly into her more prominent curls of her golden locks. Analogous to her angelic look, Soleil favours clothing in whites and golds, often long, flowing summer dresses and frocks. Her crest, located slightly higher than most between her shoulder blades, is in the shape of a stylised star in glistening gold with eight points.

Personality

A pleasant young woman of a gentle heart, Soleil is soft spoken, honest, and affectionate to those she is close to, and often just as tender to those she has just met. An upbringing isolated from the outside world might have left her cold or reserved, hesitant to open herself up to others, but it only gave Soleil an intense curiosity about life outside of the facilities she was raised in, and she sees opportunity and potential in almost anything. A sign of naivety, perhaps, but she does understand the dangers that the world poses to her and her friends. It is in her nature to be protective and nurturing, and her first worry is for the wellbeing of her companions, sometimes to the point of being controlling or possessive. This would be especially true for her Ashikabi who she would most certainly coddle, and anyone who brought harm to them would face her seldom unveiled wrath.

Abilities and Greater Technique

Displaying powers akin to those of a classic angel, Soleil's abilities are all accompanied by golden, warming light and the chime of angelic bells, and are mostly of a protective nature. She possess the ability heal wounds, cure diseases, and neutralise poisons of those held in her embrace, an ability that is greatly enhanced with her ashikabi should they share a kiss, and the ability to manifest pools of glistening golden light to ward away the darkness or blind those who would do harm to her ward.

With the kiss of her Ashikabi though, Soleil's light becomes a beacon of hope and strength, not just warding away darkness but actively cleaving through it. A halo of light manifests around her head, feathery wings emerge from her back, and light pools in her palms, shaping into a glowing sword with which to protect her Ashikabi. By reciting her Norito this can go one step further, forming a radiant bow of light. By drawing back the bowstring she produces a celestial arrow that seeks out the hearts of foes. Those that the arrow does not slay are bound in golden chains, restrained by her powers of light.

Allison Asami Mori ^♀ — Ashikabi

Age: 19.
Starting Location: North.

Appearance

Allison, or Alice as she is more commonly known, is a woman of modest proportions, at least for the most part, with only muted Japanese features due to her European ancestry. She has soft, unblemished alabaster skin, and a small, heart shaped face with thin, pale pink lips and rose-red cheeks. Her eyes are large and silvery grey, a few flecks of steeled green in them, with long, feminine eyelashes to give her face a little more womanly charm than it would otherwise have. A pair of dark grey glasses with thick frames rest on the tip of her nose and help to accentuate her mature, intellectual visage, and the mousy brown hair that falls from her head is straight and cut down to her shoulders; quite unremarkable but frames her face pleasantly. Alice's figure is very much remarkable however, and her small height at 5'4 serves only to exaggerate her curvaceous body and extremely voluptuous chest, very much contrary to her otherwise humble features, which is stressed even further when she folds her arms as she so often does, unintentionally propping them up in the process.

Fond of plain, professional clothing, Alice can usually be found wearing black tights, skirts that come down to her knees, small heels in inoffensive colours and warm, knitted turtleneck sweaters in earthy tones, often cream or white. The padding does very little to hide her figure and if anything only draws more attention to it, although whether Alice is blissfully unaware or actually uses it to her advantage is anyone's guess. Her glasses and her are almost inseparable and she is never seen without them.

Personality

Carrying an air of sophistication and intellect, Alice is very much what one might expect from a woman who owns a book store. She is calm, polite, and extremely well read, with an intellect that could have carried her through university and beyond with flying colours if she had wanted to, but she is a woman with a firm grasp on what she wants from life and opted to take a different path. She is analytical and goal-oriented, which sometimes can be pierced as her being cold or uncaring, or very rarely arrogant, but it is very unintentional and, should she realise, will apologise profusely for it. Alice can be extremely passionate when it comes to something she cares about, previously only experiencing such feelings over her family or her books, but would express equal passion for any who might become her sekirei.

Talents

Although her time owning a book store has certainly aided Alice's bookkeeping, memory, and polite decorum from handling customers, these have been part of her repertoire for years prior. She has an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of western classic literature and a passable comprehension of biology, chemistry, history, and computer sciences. Alice speaks Japanese, her native tongue, and English, the native tongue of her mother, completely fluently, and has enough conversational Mandarin and German to maintain a conversation, and has dedicated some time towards learning Russian and Latin, and although that has been met with mixed results it has not deterred her. She is also rather proficient with a set of knitting needles and she has made just under half of the knitted clothing in her wardrobe herself.

History

Allison has long been convinced that her life would be simple, modest, and while quite pleasant, it would ultimately be nothing special. Born to a Japanese father and an English mother, both historians covering overlapping topics, Alice was raised in a household that put a great deal of emphasis on the value of knowledge and critical thinking. Her mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer shortly after Alice's birth, a disaster to the small but growing family. She thankfully survived although the operation left her infertile, and so the two parents lathered all their attention on their one, precious daughter. She took after her two parents a great deal, showing the same love for history and literature that they did, and even from a young age she showed a remarkable talent for reading and writing, and would spend hours scribbling stories of anything and everything that she could possibly imagine. Through school Alice fit comfortably into her role as the school bookworm, quiet and distance, but ruthlessly intelligent, astute, and surprisingly confident.

Perhaps because she had not been treated properly, or simply because of poor luck, Alice's mother's cancer remerged some time before Alice's tenth birthday, and by the time it was discovered it had spread too far for there to much of a chance to fight through it. She tried, but after a year of struggling she passed away, leaving her husband without a wife and her daughter without a mother. Alice grew up quickly because of this, strong enough to cope with the loss of her mother where her father could not, and she was there to console him through the harder times and was steeled by the experience. Inspired by her mother, the hardest working woman she knew, Alice dedicated herself towards being the best she could possibly be, and promised to bring one of her mother's dreams to life. It had always been a dream of hers to set up a quiet little book store to sell old, dusty, and obscure books from all across the world. Alice, who had loved the idea to her very core herself, promised to make that dream a reality.

Although she left high school with exceptional grades, enough to get into almost any university in the country, Alice left education to work. She had worked part time in between education and spent the next year working full time, all to save money to fund the endeavour. Alice expected it to take years and it would have if her father had not given her the money her mother had saved for the very same purpose, which he had himself been contributing to since she passed away. Together it was enough to purchase a small little place in the quieter parts of Tokyo with a studio apartment above to boot, and while the shop is barely known and she struggles to keep it afloat, Alice is proud to call herself a business owner at such a young age, and her life is devoted to keeping her family's dream afloat. She always keeps a few copies of her mother's various historical journals at the forefront of her little shop in hopes that her work might inspire others in the same way it inspired her.

So hey....Grif. Guess what? ACCEPTORINO!

Geras · Apr 2, 2016

She's back

Name: Athena

Gender: Female

Number: 93

Appearance:
Athena has medium-length, silky blonde hair that goes down to the small of her back, fair, smooth skin, and fierce green eyes. Those bright eyes rest on a heart-shaped face along with a small nose and full lips. But beautiful as she may be her most outstanding feature is her attire. Her obsession with knights and nobility has led her to don a suit of armor as her standard outfit. The armor is a light-grey steel suit of full plate with a gold-colored trim. She also wears a helmet with wings on the side that leaves her face uncovered. Despite all this, she does not stand out all that much on the streets of Tokyo where cosplayers walking around are not too unusual.

The woman herself is 5'8" and weighs 141 lbs. She is actually rather well endowed, but her figure is hidden underneath her armor. As for the armor, despite its appearance it is really quite light, being cosplay armor as opposed to something more authentic and meant for actual protection.

Personality:
Athena can be described as chivalry personified. Enamored with the epic tales of brave men in armor, fighting dragons and saving damsels, she has molded herself to match that image to the best of her ability. Generous and kind yet unyielding in her resolve, she lives as a champion of justice, defending the weak and helpless while mercilessly striking down evil wherever it stands with her righteous blade.

Well, she would if she had a blade. Unfortunately for her, she has no means of offense, having no weapons or combat skills to speak of. This is a source of great distress for her. How is a knight supposed to wage a war against injustice if they can't fight? This also serves as a constant reminder of the fact that she is no true knight, only a girl pretending to be one.

Underneath all the chivalry and righteousness business lies a terrified young woman, unfit to deal with the world around her. Once helpless and insecure, seeing valiant heroes on television and in books inspired her, and she created this image of her ideal self. When she dons that armor she feels like she can take on anything, becoming that ideal. However, if the armor were to be removed, she would revert back to the pitiful girl she was before.

Concerning love, Athena has a very pure image of it. Knightly stories often feature love as a theme, and as much as she'll deny it to others, she secretly wishes for a princess of her own to save and fall in love with. Of course, the damsel in distress doesn't necessarily need to be another woman. Overall, she is uncertain of the details of her own desires when it comes to love as opposed to what is presented to her in these stories.

Starting Location: North District

Destiny: Up to fate

Abilities:
Athena has the ability to create stationary barriers. Other than using them as shields, Athena can make platforms in mid-air as well as prisons for her enemies. With greater focus, Athena can envision shapes in which to conjure her barriers, though more complex shapes require more energy and concentration.

Fen-Fen · Apr 4, 2016

Name: Lotus

Gender: Female

Number: 87

Appearance: Standing at a height of 5' 10", Lotus is a lean woman, weighing in at about 140 pounds and with a subdued hourglass figure that makes her more lithe than someone who is outright curvy. Her otherwise lithe figure is contrasted with her perky and decently well endowed chest, something that has not been really used to her advantage as she is more focused on being her own person rather than being a seductress. Her legs are long and well formed, again making her a prime candidate for being quite attractive. Her radiantly pale skin and crimson hair, tied up into pigtails, accentuate an air of vitality and life that matches her demeanor quite well. Her face, heart shaped with a soft, gentle quality to it, makes her seem a bit younger than she actually is, which is a-OK with Lotus. Then most notable thing about Lotus by far, is her having the physical attributes of a fox, with perky, triangular fox ears jutting out from her and a three bushy, lusciously furry tails that are also the same crimson shade as her hair with white tips.

The attire that Lotus decides to wear is unorthodox for someone possessing her physical attributes and the expectations of wearing her physical attributes with sophistication. Her everyday attire is usually worn out graphic t-shirts depicting favorite characters of hers, either two sizes too big or two sizes too small along with sweatpants when it's cooler or short shorts when it's warmer outside.

Personality: Despite her natural beauty, Lotus purposefully does not use it to her advantage in the things she does on a day-to-day basis. While she knows that she oozes sex appeal and she can very well be attractive and sexy if she felt the motivation and need to be, she dismisses it and pretend like it's not there for the purposes of her day to day life, preferring to have carefree fun and "wild" adventures. Colored by years of being sheltered from the outside world and growing in the technicolor world of cartoons and videogames, she has an eccentric way of viewing the world. Usually upbeat and hyper, she is a very outgoing individual that never hesitates to make a friend, especially over a match of one of her favorite video games. While not the brightest person, being something of a ditz, she is kind-hearted and friendly, wanting only the best for her friends and any potential Akihabi and most importantly, a hell of a good time. As part of being sheltered, cooped up in the lab with no contact with the outside world, she envisions the world as quite the spectacle, letting her imagination run wild with the possibilities, rather than the cannots and will nots.

Contrasting with her clearly mature body, Lotus often can be immature and a bit of a child. Her attention span is a bit erratic, she "sticks it to the man" in petty ways and likes to play or mess around with her friends constantly. She is very playful and loves the opportunity to playfully wrestle with someone or perhaps challenge them to some rounds of Soul Calibur. Perhaps most notable about her personality, pertaining to her playfulness, is her loving to tease. While not unaware of her good looks, it rarely enters the forefront of her mind when she playfully teases, often causing the other party to mistake her intentions as romantic or sexual, all the while she had something else on her mind, such as an innocuous sleepover filled with watching a favorite show of hers and gaming.

Starting Location: North District

Destiny: Up to fate

Abilites: Lotus is able to use the power of lasers to emanate raw power to smite evil and save the day! Able to shoot lasers from out of her eyes or from the tips of her fingers, she can shoot different colored lasers for different purposes, ranging from low energy beams that are like an over glorified laser pointer (mainly for distractions) to high power beams that can deal some serious damage. She can also "shape" the lasers into shapes such as blades and the like.

Norito: "May the light of our love guide us, my Ashikabi!"

Name: Tatsumi Tatsuya

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Tatsumi is an average sized male with a skinny build. He has dyed blond, straight hair. He has a handsome, effeminate face, that glows with a bright smile. His body type, while not muscular, is pretty well cut, and he is pretty good at maintaining a good posture.

Tatsumi likes to wear brightly colored shirts and sweatshirts, occasionally donning suits for recitals. He carries his violin everywhere, as well as a backpack filled with things he needs when he goes out. His favorite color is yellow, which reminds him of the sun and fall.

Personality: Tatsumi is a determined and artistic individual. He possess a drive to surpass himself, and defeat boredom. This has led him to be an excellent entertainer, well known online and as a street performer. Tarsumi lacks a sense of self preservation though, and values his art and sense of adventure over his life. This has led him to a life of poverty and drifting, relying mostly on street performances, donations, odd jobs, and such to make ends meet.

Tatsumi is light hearted, and generous. On the outside, he is stable, carefree, and full of life. In reality, he deals with a dangerous feeling of being inferior, and carries the fact that his father is imprisoned for life for killing his mother. He lacks friends, constantly moving away, and pushing people away that get emotionally close. He often lies, keeping up a front of happiness to keep people from asking questions.

Tatsumi isn't afraid of danger, rather he isn't afraid of death or pain. He fears losing his ability to play music or speak, and he fears his father. He is afraid of looking weak or sad, and he is afraid of losing people close to him (which is anybody or animal he's interacted with). Tatsumi loves dogs and cats, especially strays, and often feeds them and sings to them. If you catch him playing, you'll see both people and animals sitting or standing around, listening to him.

The odd jobs that Tatsumi takes are often labor intensive or involve a lot of lifting. His "manager" (an associate of his who posts his music online) gives him a small bit of money each month, mostly from fans or donations (though Tatsumi isn't really sure how much money his manager takes, he never asks). He also gets money from playing violin on the street, taking the small amounts of money people offer him.

Starting Location: North

Talents: Tatsumi is an excellent musician, excelling at violin, piano and singing. He has a photographic memory, able to remember every detail. Finally, he is excellent at voice work, and can mimic the voices of most males. Tatsumi is an entertainer, and he loves to be part of larger things.

History: Tatsumi started playing the violin at five years old, learning from his mother, a concert violinist. His father was an man who wanted to pursue music as a flutist, but began to suffer from heart and lung problems in his prime. The man took on a job as a store manager, and slowly began to resent life, turning to alcohol to pass free time.

By the age of seven, Tatsumi began to show his talent for music, and by the age of ten, he had begun to stand out among his classmates. His father would abuse him at home, beating him down both physically and emotionally, telling him that he would never be good enough at music, but his mother would always push him forward, encouraging him. Tatsumi took his father's words to heart, gaining an inferiority complex, but he was never discouraged, instead believing that all he had to do was constantly get better.

The abuse took its toll on Tatsumi and his mother. His father only getting worse as the years went on, turning to narcotics in order to remove himself from life. One day, his father came home, high and drunk, more violent than ever. His drug filled rampage caused the him to kill his wife, landing him in jail for both murder and possession of deugs. Tatsumi was twelve at the time, and had only survived because he was at a rehersal. When he came home, police had already closed off the scene and taken his father. He was placed in the care of his mother's sister from then on.

By the time high school started, he had already performed in small concerts and compititions, mastering the violin, and making strides with vocal and piano work. His complex expressed itself as boredom as he was never satisfied with life or his work. When he wasn't practicing, he would explore the city, playing on the streets, and he often skipped class, not caring much about academic life. He often avoided his aunt, often not coming home until his aunt called the police on him. Despite his love for her, and her caring attitude towards him, Tatsumi refused to connect with her, and she had no idea how to raise a child.

Tatsumi barely passed school, but he moved out anyways. With no job, no plans for the future, and no intent to look back, Tatsumi left home in an effort to shake up his world, and sate his boredom. He found a small studio apartment and has been paying for it through odd jobs, street performances and asking for donations. While a hard lifestyle, Tatsumi enjoys it, finding that living day to day is a way to escape his past.

Izumi
NORTHERN DISTRICT // ♀ // Sekirei // #30

Appearance

Izumi stands at a height of 5'9" with a creamy skin complexion. She is generously gifted in the areas of her breasts and hips, causing her figure to have a noticeable hourglass shape to it. Her facial features are sharp, including large, deep, chocolate-brown eyes and a small nose that comes to a very fine point. Her soft as silk hair is as black as midnight. Izumi wears her hair quite long, as it easily reaches down to her thighs. She generally keeps it pulled up into a rather loose ponytail by way of a silk, white ribbon. Her bangs neatly line the side of her face, making sure as not to obstruct the view of her facial features.

In terms of clothing, modesty is not Izumi's priority. She tends to wear clothes that are tight and do little to hide her curves. While she does not go as far as to wear only underwear, Izumi can commonly be seen and hip-hugging, denim pants and various, low-cutting tank tops that easily give view to some impressive cleavage and often show of her trim and toned tummy. Izumi loves to wear jewelry most of all. She often sports several piercings in her ears and is rarely seen without her beloved choker. It is black and leather in make, matching a belt she usually wears around her waist. Izumi even goes as far as to wear various necklaces with her choker. A silver, decorative bangle is always adorning her left arm as well. Oddly enough, her feet are always bare. The only articles to ever adorn them being a pair of silver anklets and a ring her second toe of her left foot.

Personality

Izumi tends to have a rather jovial personality. She loves a good joke and can usually be seen with a smile on her face, which only tends to slip off her face when something truly annoys her (an event that can be quite rare to say the least). She is generally very laid back, preferring to take things one step at a time and not sweat over the details. She seems to adore spending a great deal of time outdoors, and has developed an odd fascination with reading various forms of manga and joke books. That said...

Izumi can be somewhat manipulative at times. When she sees something that truly desires, she is not afraid to go through any means to acquire it. This includes using her beauty and sex appeal to gain the upper hand. Izumi has no problem in making others uncomfortable, at times even going as far as to rub up against someone to use sexual tension as some sort of bargaining chip. To make matters worse, she often acts innocent of the whole thing, as she has no idea that what she's doing can be seen as inappropriate behavior. While this could be seen as downright selfish and deceitful, Izumi truly does care about her Ashikabi and is willing to do anything to keep those she does care about safe.

Ultimately Up To Fate~

Norito

"Through the power of my pact, I will plant the seed to make my Ashikabi strong!"

Ability

Izumi has the ability to manipulate plant life. This is mostly used through control of vines, leaves, seeds, and flowers. With this ability, Izumi can use them for protection, such as forming a barrier of sorts with leaves, and for attacking, like a seed-spitting flower cannon and vines that can operate as a whip of sorts. When the vegetation is brought to life through her ability, they can only stay alive for a brief period of time before they inevitably wilt and die. Also the longer her plant minions stay alive, the more energy Izumi consumes.

Justice is victory.

Name:

Aozaki Taeko

Gender:

Female

Age:

28

Appearance:

Generally she has always been a petite person, which made some people question her dedication towards becoming a policewoman. However, she is, of course, very well trained physically and knowledgeable in self defense. She can hold her own against average men fairly easily. Aozaki-san has rather pale skin and bright brown eyes. Her natural hair color is black, but she has had a habit of dying it platinum blonde for years now. The hair reaches down to her elbows naturally, but when on duty she almost always keeps it up in a bun or braid in order to look strict and not let it get in the way. She would cut it off to make things practically easier, but her sister forbids it.

Her daily attire consists of Tokyo police clothing and assets, but in her freetime she likes to dress comfortably. Loose jeans, big sweatshirts, sneakers; being feminine with high heels and loads of make up was something she left behind in her teenage years. Her sister took care of those things well enough for them both. She wears no jewelry other than a wristwatch given to her by her late father.

Personality:

Taeko is a generally clever woman, sometimes with a bit of a smart-mouth. She takes most things in life seriously and feels bad whenever she is lazying around, despite actually really enjoying lazying around sometimes. She worries easily over the future, as well as the past, but she has taught herself to stop dwelling on memories or plans for too long; basically she is a pretty down to earth person. She believes in no higher power, only in the skills and willpower of humans. Coffee is her drug, and without it in the mornings, her whole day can feel off. A secret interest of hers is reading superhero manga. Even though she knows very well that there are no superpowers in real life, she really loves reading about how justice wins in the end, as is often the theme with superheroes.

She owns a dog, who usually seems to be a very stupid creature, but there are times when Taeko believes that he actually understands her and cares about her for real. His name is, interestingly enough, Neko, as her nephew thought it looked like a cat when she first got him. Neko is a smallish black pug, see. When Taeko is at work, her sister or sometimes nephew usually comes around daily to walk him around lunch time.

Spoiler:

Starting Location:

Northern District

Talents:

Being part of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Taeko knows very well how to handle and fire a pistol gun, and has done so towards live targets on a few occasions. She never hit anybody yet though, and is actually happy for that. She believes that she could definitely kill or harm if necessary, if her target was hurting or threatening someone else and there was no other solution. Justice is victory; as long as she can realize when something is just, and let that happen, the good side will be victorious in the end. She has also received training with rifles, batons and knives.

Like mentioned before, she has a very good physique for being so tiny. She might still not be the strongest person ever, but she has always been a fast runner and used to compete in running as a kid and teenager, winning many local and some national prizes. She kept it up and still tries to go out for a relaxing run almost daily.

She has a secret knack for drawing. When she was a kid, she used to paint and draw comics all the time, but she quit that when she was a teenager. A few years ago, she picked it up again without telling anybody, and has a lot of half finished sketches and comic panels stuffed into books or binders around her apartment. It became slightly bothersome when she started a relationship with a colleague, as he was the type to want to keep track of what she was doing almost all of the time. Somehow, she managed to hide her hobby still, and picked it up again more freely after she finally broke up with him.

Another strange little talent of hers is that she is really good at impersonating other people's voices and making sounds with her mouth. She can manage to sound similar to almost any kind of girl voice, and even some brighter male voices. In high school, she sometimes made her friends laugh by acting like a beat boxer.

History:

Taeko is the daughter of a Japanese woman and a man of American origin. Along with her sister who was seven years older, she had a nice time growing up; until disaster struck. Her father worked for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and she never liked him going to work because he was facing criminals every day. When she was 15, her father went missing on duty. It made her mother clinically depressed, despite trying to keep a bright face for her daughters. Taeko decided to become a cop herself. Maybe she couldn't avenger her father, since she didn't know what had happened. And maybe she would never find out. But she could fight for justice with everything she had got, and do what she could to make the world a better place. Despite being a tiny girl, she managed to get into and graduate the police academy and has been working as a cop for a few years now in Tokyo.

Taeko's sister Kaede grew up to marry a very wealthy business man. Already at the age of 20, she gave birth to a son named Tomoya. "Tom", as Taeko called him, saw his aunt as his hero as he grew up. She started working as a cop just like they told him his grandfather did before he went missing. Now Tomoya is 15 years old and not as naive as he used to be; hormones are starting to get a grip also. He still is very good friends with his aunt and often takes care of Neko for her.

A few years back, Taeko started a relationship with a colleague. A big, strong cop guy named Hantoru. She felt like she needed some security in life. Tomoya never liked Hantoru at all, as he really kept Taeko on a short leash for about a year. Eventually though, Taeko had the courage to break up with him. They still work together occasionally, and sometimes the dude tries to come on to her still, but Taeko stays strong. She knows now that she really doesn't need a macho man in her life. She doesn't quite know what she does need, though.

Alright folks! Time for more GM Stuph! First just let me say I really appreciate the interest in Wings of Fate, and some of the hype we've generated <3 And the IC is being submitted tomorrow so not much more time to wait! And for that very same reason I recommend those who aren't finish, try to get finished soon.

Lyra is accepted! In fact, she already was but I didn't have enough to write about for a post yet ._.

Tatsumi is accepted! There are a few little nitpicks, but they're just that, nitpicks.

Izumi is accepted! No real complaints here that I can think of.

Lotus and Copgirl are pending! On account of not being finished.

NOW, ON TO THE SINGLE NUMBERS.

Fia is accepted! And given her old number of 9 The SU is as great as ever without any need for legacy points

Layfe is also accepted! and assigned the number 7 I already liked the first Layfe, but I like this one much better even, I think he'll do well as a single number.

Hibiki is accepted! As well. Short, sweet, but good and I can think of a lot of potential for her.

Which leads the odd man out. I'm sorry Alvey but Jazmine doesn't strike me as a single number's power level. I like her better as a higher number, but besides that there are also some more things you, I, and Geras need to discuss about her before she's accepted. Jazmine is pending!
