Lets take Xandrya’s Blood-Bending power for an example. I would have called it overpowered if she didn’t add the “To a certain extent”. But since you’re in powers united you can do more than just “to a certain extent” but less than “Expert control”.. Do you know what i’m saying?

…and apparently, I get an extra power as well? That’s what it says in the guild description…

:3 I edited my profile, hope you don’t mind.

That would be correct. Game thread starting..

Let the games, begin.

I’m not too late right?

Name: Neximus Xrormar

Age: 24.

Gender: Male.

Race: Demon.

Element: Death.

Power: Shadows Forms a shadow that can use stealth to get close to a target and turn it’s arm into the shape of a shard of metal to kill.
Hellish Ghouls Summons half a dozen Ghouls with claws coated with deadly poison and teeth all like a vampire’s fang.

Guild: Elemental Control.

Alignment: Unaligned.

Starting Weapon: A steel sword and shield.

Description: Short black hair, red eyes and normal(ish) looking face. Sturdily built, 6’1" and 224 lbs. Some stubble on the chin.

Clothing: Black cloak flowing down to ankles, covering up black steel armor covering his feet, legs and chest.

Bio: Neximus was born into a high-class family. He practiced his dark arts in secrets, sometimes killing servants and knights that happened to be in the wrong places at the wrong times. When Neximus turned 18, he was going to be forced to marry or become a knight. He chose neither.

Neximus took some of his favorite objects and left the small castle to live on his own. He used his Ghouls and “Shadows” to survive and stop attacks on himself. He lived in the wilds for many years, killing and taking from corpses to survive. Every once and a while he would let someone live.

No, you’re not too late. Signs will always be accepted! I’ll whisper you how you enter the game.

Alignment: Unaligned.

I don’t believe this is legal. A character has to have an alignment, else it wouldn’t have been included on the sign-up form – although if you want something like “unaligned”, might I suggest True Neutral?

I don’t se how this is any different than True Neutral.

Yeah, you are with the rest of the group. Have fun

Maybe you should start by filling in the sign-up form correctly. That’s always a good place to begin.

LIke changing from time? Its no wonder they condemn me… with all these ‘suggestions’ and such. Problem is… time is the only style that would suit me in this case.

Do you know what your problem is right now, dev? You’re trying to be “unique”, but you’re instead coming off as extremely obnoxious. Time is not an element you have the option of choosing. Therefore, you cannot choose it. This is not a question of what element suits your specific style (and nor is it a perversion of your specific brand of so-called “justice”, before you even think of saying anything along those lines). It’s a question of “fill out the form as it is presented, or don’t bother trying to sign up”. Veeeery simple. So, you have your options: remake your character with a valid element, or make a new character completely that doesn’t violate any rules, or flatout don’t post in this thread or the game thread ever again. Again, simple.

I would never deny a perfectly decent config so as long as it follows the nature of the game. Its not that I want to be unique, just that I dont believe in limiting myself just to the present options as long as they are fair.

Still… I think I can see a reason why he would refuse time. But lets see if we think alike on that matter.
… doubtful knowing the usual responses. (pointing to the plotline about such)

No, I-
…dev, the present options are there specifically for reasons of limitation. If limits didn’t apply, we’d have elements like… well, like “time” flying around in people for no reason.

Name: Ammon Mej Tariq Halecule
Age: 43
Gender: Male
Race: Yulk
Element: Earth
Power: Constructing magical items, unraveling properties of gemstones by charging them with energy
Guild: Elemental Control
Alignment: Neutral Good
Starting Weapon: Mattock and large hammer
Description: Big man with four arms. Strong, physical build. Somewhat scarred. Green eyes. No hair to speak of.
Clothing: Clothing? No no no no no. I flaunt my power. The softest, blackest soil is my clothing. It’s held on my body with the power of a few jet stones, which hold energy to hold it up. Several other colorful gemstones form ‘bling’. I also have some jewelry.
Bio: Ammon was a rich, rich man-
Look, stone, this is yet another Croesus expy. Same powers, same story, except that this one isn’t short and green-haired.

I don’t know what Croesus Expy is. Is that a RP?

An expy is a character which is suspiciously like another from another source.

You’re referencing Darkspell, so am I! I’m also making my third ‘rich Earth mage man’ to date.

Ice clone- can create an extension of itself, essentially a clone made of ice.

Clothing: Wears all white clothing, elegant with the exception of his black duster and black straw hat.

Bio: Can I make this later?

NO YOU CANNOT MAKE IT LATER Yeah :P

Thank you, I just don’t want to make a bio right now because I am reading AC.

May I change my weapons to duel shields? They would work better with the build I have with my character.

Yeah, not right now though. After the house something may appear just for you :P
