EL, thanks for your concern. I'm touched that you care so much about my contest, XDThe post is enough to make me laugh as I type this post... Wow... your insert is too good......... /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> ......... /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> ............... /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> .................... /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Okay, okay, enough laughing. ...... Okay, if I can insert more smilies, then I will, but unfortunately, I cannot. But you can see my laughter.Cham... Now I REALLY wonder if you did this just to make my story laughable... I really should start not trusting that people know moderation, lol.To be totally honest, I don't care if it is a holy sword or whatnot. I mean... seriously, tarots and Pervious are strong enough to kill heirloom. But... man, I need to ask Cham to do a bit of touch-up...Cham must be hating EL for this, lol. Okay, EL, you should consider placing less tighter max on emotes so I can SHOW how much I'm laughing right now. I really enjoyed your hate letter. I really did. Although... it is aimed at me, right? Gah, my writing skill really needs improvements...XDEDIT: Okay, that is being favorited. I am so keeping this for future gloomy days

Anyway, I'll stop derailing fanfiction threads now and proceed to have nothing to do with this subforum as previously was the case. <_

Lol, at any rate, Character Contest is made because I do not have names for original characters. Everything is relatively subjected to changes... I think I should put that on disclai

(why have i been posting so much today? I think i am going to go back into my shell.)(EL) No you don't. There's only room for one lurker on this board, and that's the Eternal Lurker.

First your question: I don't mind multiple characters.Then here is what I have to say: my sympathy for people only go up to one character per person.In other words... If you make two characters, unless I like both, one lesser character will most likely be not accepted. In that sense, I will outright say nay to any second character that I see has half effort.So in other words... You are welcome to be creative, but don't spam crap in my contest and expect me to use them.But I appriciate your h

QUOTE (EternalLurker @ Jul 24 2010, 08:56 PM) quotecOh god I read some of the rest of Chamomile's post, though I couldn't stomach it long enough to get to his dagger.my reaction that I typed to a friend on AIMQuoteEndQuoteEEndOW. Lol XDHonestly, Typhus Malachai is a name I've stuck with for a long time, and I don't see why I can't fantasize about him using the Kusanagi no Tsurugi.(EL) Malachai is a real name. Characters named Malachai are not inherently ridiculous. Japanese characters named Malachai are inherently ridiculous.A swordfighter wielding the Kusanagi no Tsurugi is not inherently ridiculous. A famous kendo grandmaster wielding the Kusanagi no Tsurugi as what is apparently a family heirloom without himself or any of his ancestors drawing any attention is ridiculous.Emphasis on the Kusanagi no Tsurugi somehow being a family heirloom is already inherently ridiculous for the reason stated above. His father leaving when "Typhus Malachai" was two years old and yet Typhus somehow still getting his hands on the sword with no explanation whatsoever is triply ridiculous.Still, no hard feelings. I appreciate the fact that you can sit back, nod your head and say, "Yep, this kid is chemically imbalance. Let's humor him."(EL) What you appreciate is the fact that yours was the only post I bothered reading in the first place, which illustrates my opinion of your general comprehension of the English language and acceptable writing abilities from a purely stylistic standpoint. It's only the content, not the style, that drives me to skull-denting facepalming as I illustrated above.

(EL) ....Rofl. Decided to start reading Mokona's cuz of this post. BIRTH "DEFECTS" THAT MAKE ME INCREDIBLY POWERFUL. OH, NO, I'M CURSED WITH AWESOME. That goes beyond facepalm-territory and back into the land of lung-aching laughter.So.... help? Make it realistic and logical for your sake and my sake... please???And EL... Okay, you will edit this so I'll say it anyways. It is REALLY creepy that you come and go and insert things into the post... I suppose that's why your name is "Eternal Lurker..." but still...Speaking of, EL, what is your favorite unit in Starcraft? I am guessing Lurker.(EL) Thought I'd already noted that I don't play StarCraft at all. I generally don't like RTSs.Edit: Ah! There you go again!!! EL, often time I feel like I'm talking to myself when you do this...(EL) It makes people check old posts that they thought they'd read, or even wrote. I enjoy being a jerk.

2) I was just trying to have some odd reason for crossing timelines. Out of the billions, there has to be one in which Geocentrism is correct right? Anyways, I'm just justifying nothing. It doesn't mat
blah701
To be honest, I don't want to create billion paradox Earth. I want more of "stable" timelines to be shown i my works, one of which I think I'll rely heavily on the actual Ge.Ne.Sis. game.And Mokona... does there HAVE to be a reason why a person becomes a social outcast? Anything can make it possible.But... hmm.... maybe he has a weird birthmark? Has a birth defect? Or maybe he was born alone in the world? Any of those reasons can create social isolation. Yes, seriously. Just being born alone, with nobody taking care of him could turn him into a feral child and thus unlikable by society in many worlds... although being feral might not be the good reason, since feral children are studied by psychologists. Maybe furious feral child that didn't like humans? Hmmm... if you don't like any of the ideas I just ranted out, I'll think of more.EL, you made me stay up three hours more just so I can read things in that TV idiom things... Persons of Mass Destruction? Deus Angst Machina? Wangst? Blessed with Suck? I'm Having Soul Pains? Mind Rape? Clothing Damage? There is No Kill Like Overkill? Godzilla Threshold? No One Could Survive That? Snicket Warning? Okay, all valid, but who in the world names these crap?(EL) Amusing people. Anyway, yes, TV Tropes has a much-exaggerated Wikipedia effect: link trees will devour your soul. And, yeah, Blessed with Suck can sometimes be cool, but Cursed with Awesome is always terrible except as an intentional parody of emo-ness.

I understand that since there are little people going on this forum at one time, I don't think there will be any more luck with characters...

just wanted to make this clear about Adrien's powers. His/her hands glow 24/7, but (s)he can make them glow brighter. (Infinitely, if (s)he strains it. But then (s)he'll be blind.) And 'thought corruption' is just a cool name for one-way telepathy. Adrien can project his/her thoughts. Because of this, I find that (s)he would be a good battle strategist (if (s)he actually fought in a group, which I think would be his/her biggest probl

hanks. That should help a bit. Currently was working on your profile until I was bored.... I think I'll take this slow... no need to rush, since no one reads the series... I'm actually planning on posting this on fictionpress... or since this is sort of fanfic, should it be in fanfic? Dunno... I think it is original enough to be part of fictionpress, but I'll see if there is Ge.Ne.Sis. section in the fanfic

I took liberties and designed their tarots. I hope you don't mind.quoteoQUOTE quotecFull Name: AlexanderNickname or Preferred name: ExanAge: 16Birthplace: Southern California, USAPhysical Appearance: Average height, with a slim, athletic build. Fair skin, blond hair that's been crudely cropped short, and ice blue eyes.Faction: AdventurersTarot: The Knight of Swords - He's cocky, sarcastic, and oppositional. He looks sort of like a centaur, but only metal can be seen, except for a piece of cloth that covers the face of his helmet. His weapons are a lance and an arming sword.Biography: You want a back story? So would Exan. He was born and raised in a Southern Californian city with his family, and there's no tragedy or drama to speak of. He gets decent grades, and he's good at basketball and a few other sports. He's ended up in a few fights trying to defend his friends' reputations from others, which is probably the most interesting thing about his life. That, and his older sister using him as a lab rat for hairstyling; his current hair is the result of a recent escapade(she's training to be a hairdresser).Personality: He has a hard time adjusting to new environments, so waking up in a parallel timeline is just about the most stressful thing he could go through. He's a bit shy, but he's friendly and loyal. His loyalty has even caused him trouble, as the more loyal he is to someone, the more likely it is he will compulsively defend someone, even when it's inappropriate.Weapon: Aspis and dory - Greek shield and spear, 1.5m wide and 2m long, respectively. The shield is pretty damn heavy, so only stronger characters can lift it. The spear has a sharp butt in case the main tip is unusable.Fighting Style: He's tougher than he looks, but he's also slower than he looks. He best at fighting defensively, focusing on performing counterattacks. He does not know magic, but when/if he does, it will be primarily defensive in nature (but not healing).Love Preferences?: He's a shy guy. For what it's worth, he has a thing for black hair, but otherwise isn't sure what he likes. His loyalty to his friends might give him extra distress than normal in a love triangle, if you think that would be fun.QuoteEndQuoteEEndAnd another!quoteoQUOTE quotecFull Name: OdetteAge: 15Birthplace: FrancePhysical Appearance: Shoulder-length auburn hair with a side parting and olive green eyes. Normal height, with a light-build.Faction: AdventurersTarots: The Two of Coins - A curious one, the silent and stoic Two looks sort of like a white egg two-meter tall egg, with a large, red, whiteless eye on it. The area around the eye can peel open to reveal the inside: a mess of hoses, pumps, tanks, and a series of forward facing pipes. These pipes can spew out extremely deadly flames. When closed, the Two is effectively invincible, but is slow moving and harmless. When open, the Two can move at a decent speed and can cause great destruction, but its insides are very fragile.Biography: Just like Exan, Odette doesn't have a dramatic back story. She is the only child of a family from the upper-middle class who could afford to have her spend her education in private schools. She excels in language and mathematics, and is decent or better in other subjects. Although she's friendly, because she grew up as an only child, she prefers to have a small circle of friends.Personality: Chipper and bright. Although she can be enthusiastic when she sets out to do something, she is also quick to get tired and is subject to complaining fits. When she isn't distracted by her own grumbling, she shows intelligence and insight. She's friendly to everyone, but she only gets close to those she has known for a while (even if they find themselves walking through an alternate timeline together for a week /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />).Weapon: Shoulder cannon (What can I say? Girls with guns are cool.) - 8cm bore diameter, 1.2m long, with a blocky stock. It has no magazine, as the ammunition is magical. Odette can fire as long as she has the magical energy to do so. Despite its size, it's relatively light, although it will only accept Odette's energy, so it won't fire when anyone else uses it.Fighting Style: Odette prefers to stand in the back, acting as artillery support. That said, she is capable of handling herself, being a decent runner and a quick shot. She can use red magic through her weapon.Love Preferences?: So long as her ability to complain isn't lessened to make it easier to pair her, I'm cool with anything.QuoteEndQuoteEEndOne more, for good measure.quoteoQUOTE quotecFull Name: UsamaAge: 19Birthplace: EgyptPhysical Appearance: Dark skin, dark eyes, and short dark brown hair that's been brushed back. He's a little tall, with long limbs.Faction: Adventurers (He could also be a Previous)Tarots: The Ten of Wands - The melancholy Ten of Wands moves slowly with a body that, while not necessarily in pain, is always burdened. He has the appearance of a hunched man, draped in heavy chains, which block from view most of his body even his face. He supports his movements with a long steel staff held in rusted claw-like hands. He wields yellow magic.Biography: Born into a lower-middle class family, Usama studied hard so he could support a move to the city, like his older brother had already done. However, just the year before he would leave to go to a university, his father fell terribly ill, and Usama had to remain at home to head the family business. To suppress his frustration and quench his desire to experience new things, he started studying on his own, reading books of all fields whenever he had the chance. A year after he began this practice, he began slipping into alternate timelines. Another year has passed since then, and he has been regularly jumping over to alternate timelines, trying to understand what is happening.Personality: He generally seems cold and distant, but that's only because he views the whole parallel timeline thing to be serious matter, not an opportunity to play around. This serious attitude leads to inflexibility and an inability to loosen up. He can be argumentative, as he wants everything to be run efficiently. He prefers full-flavored cigarettes.Weapon: Khopesh - Egyptian axe-sword, .6 meters long. Khopeshes are difficult to describe, so here's a link to an image. It's light, and because of its unique design, it's good for both slashing and chopping.Fighting Style: Usama is light on his feet, preferring to outsmart or outmaneuver opponents rather than overpower them. He can also use some offensive yellow magic.Love Preferences?: I don't mind if you try to pair him up with somebody, so long as you keep in mind that he's not easily impressed by...well, anything.QuoteEndQuoteEEndPS- As for deaths, you can kill 'em off if you w
