[Korkoa]

 

 

 

Name: Blue

Variation: Chain Lightning

Level: 2

Gender: Female

Gear: A breakdown staff, the ends of which double as boomerangs when removed and unfolded.

Appearance: Nearly identical to a standard Rahkshi shell, apart from every armor plate, skeleton part, and joint being made from a silver protodermis. Her three spines are straight and sharp, like sword blades, though the middle spine seems to be loose, wobbling from side to side. Her eyes as well, instead of the standard red, glow a bright blue, where she derives her name from.

Personality: Silver makes a great attempt to fit in with other Rahks. She tries to be friendly, strong enough to hold her own, and tough enough to take abuse. She has a very strong moral compass, and her version of justice is what she strives for in everything.

Bio: Pulled from the Kraata pits early, Silver found her Makuta father to be a bit absentminded, at best. Though he recognized her intelligence and potential, he very rarely accomidated her. The suit he had provided was all made of the same material, though bright and shining it provided little variety. He built her staff and spines, though never fixed the broken middle spine for her, and the staff is flimsy at best. She has made do, however, by mainly using the staff ends as her weapons. While she appreciated being recognized, she eventually grew resentful of her absent 'father' as she thinks of him. She began to act out, taking what she felt she needed when he forgot about her requests for it, and even sabatoging projects she felt took too much of his time. Eventually he grew tired of this, and sent her off to the school Tridax had founded.

 

Sounds like a stupid question, but whats a breakdown staff? Just a staff she can snap in half to use as the boomerangs? Or did you just mean the way the Rahkshi can apparently make the hafts of their staffs vanish leaving just the blades at the end?

 

Sort of a combination of the two? She removes the ends yes, but the 'staff' bit doesn't vanish. She either drops it or stores it, retrieving it later.

[Dallior]

Well, seeing as Taltrun COMPLETELY ignored Karzfire standing above him, if they never edit it, we can just say that they're hallucinogenic!

[Some Random Phrase]

Name:Optis

Variation:Chameleon

Level:2

Gender: M

Gear: Optis's forearms have had two compartments installed. Each holds a tactical/fighting knife with a sheath. A compartment installed in his waist holds a sharpener, notebook, and a pencil. 

Appearance: Optis has painted himself a subtle shade of inky black that can be easily recolored by his abilities. Other then that, he is thin and wiry.

Personality: Optis is inquisitive and curious, with an almost editic memory. He has the capability to take mental notes and remember things verbatim for several days. He has gotten to the habit of talking to himself, and frequently argues with himself about the best course of action. He doesn't have multiple personalities, or anything, though. That would be cliche.

Bio: Optis's Makuta's firm opinion was that knowledge is power. He therefore dedicated most of his life to the pursuit of knowledge, compiling vast libraries of history, science, and more. When Optis was created, his Makuta decided to train him in basic mathematics(Which meant through algebra and a bit of geometry) and gave him a very basic beginning to history and such. Optis took his lessons to heart, and after spending countless days in his creator's library, reading, he decided he wanted to do his own research. So his Makuta outfitted him and sent him to CR. 

[Sassy Dalmation]

Chameleon is a new trend now... And it all started with Mortsia... Interesting.

[Kovika: Visorak Lord]

Yet I still haven't set any trends.

So that ties it up to:

Locus - 87 Trends set

WoS - 1 Trend set

Kovika - 0 Trends set

Status:

[Nato G]

87? Really?

[Kovika: Visorak Lord]

Probably over estimating it. I'd guess 23 in all seriousness.

[Nato G]

Still seems like a lot....

[Naota Takizawa]

I thought chameleon wasn't a trend and just one of the 42 powers that some people would want to choose. 

[Nato G]

 

IC: Cordak morphed into a Frostelus and scurries away from Taltrun before morphing back into a rahkshi.

 

OOC: Someone tell me if a form is to much for a level 2 rahkshi 

 

As people have suggested several times now, it's a good idea to consult the BS01 Kraata Variations page. 

 

At his current level, Cordak can't actually shapeshift into anything.

[Wyrd Bid Ful Araed]

 

...not really. Still overly elaborate, and kind of makes me think "surely the nearest person for them to impale is Sepulchral himself?"

Would it work if I got rid of one or two redundancies and clarified that the blades aren't homing projectiles?

 

Yeah that would be better, something a little less sci-fi. Sounds weird in a RPG about slugs made of solidified negativity running around in power armour with magic powers, I know, but I'd prefer a weapon that didn't look like it had come from the more extravagant end of the Star Wars EU

Works for me. Blue is approved

Approved

[Dark_Stranger]

Gear:[/b] Sepulchral’s primary weapon is Brutalizer, a huge Morningstar stolen from Bitil’s armory before his departure for the academy; its head is made up of six separate blades held in place with a system of sturdy mechanical latches. A hidden catch near the head ejects the blades at high velocity when pressed; after travelling up to fifty yards, they will be pulled back to their housing and form the head again.

Fixed.

Also made a personal memo to rein in my weakness for extravagantly awesome weapons, at least while RPing.

[Nato G]

 

Please fix it before we have to resort to more drastic methods that are sure to get your attention.

 

When you say more drastic methods, you're talking about me, aren't you?

[Klanadack]

Not quite that drastic.

[Kovika: Visorak Lord]

Nato, you should know that drastic measures usually include you having a long talk with someone...

Or Dane just showing them how many hashtags he can use to replace a censored word.

[Nato G]

Nato, you should know that drastic measures usually include you having a long talk with someone...

 

People have tried talking, and it has failed. 

 

Drastic measures in this case means something else entirely....

[Nato G]

Locus: 5(mutes, pointless sacrifice, blinded Rahks, absurd mutations, hardcore fighters)

• I don't think muteness is really a trend.
• Neither of the sacrifices my characters have made were pointless. 
• Click was the first to make a blind rahk, not me. And two characters does not a trend make.
• I don't have any absurd mutations - that's you. 
• That one also isn't really a trend. That's just common sense.

EDIT: Nato! Y U miss an L?

 

These are... pretty vague. I hardly think any one person could be attributed to paving the way for everyone else to have anger issues, for example.

 

But there is one that you got completely wrong. Click was the first to create a blind Rahkshi, with Hoto, and Locus followed him with Era.

 

EDIT: Ah, ninja'd. Oh well.

The Ninja King strikes again! 

 

I am nothing if not consistent. 

[Kovika: Visorak Lord]

One day I'm going to usurp you. It is going to be glorious, filled with bad puns and rambling.

[Not Quite Dead]

I prefer to set untrends. Things so trendy that no one copies them.

IC: Shark / Gym

 

Shark nodded respectfully, taking note of which head had spoken. "Very well." He turned away from the two-headed Rahk, to survey the rest of the Gym once more.

 

Over there, that was the same golden idiot who had been talking with Fang outside about Matoran. And that was the same crazy oracle - Rain's sister, apparently - who had been standing with them. They must be investigating, in their own pitiful way.

 

Shark commanded the Gym to summon up a triangle of dummies, and then began to smash through them like a finned, sword-wielding bowling ball through an array of pathetic pins.

 

OOC: Shark open to interaction... if you dare.

OOC: Interacting with Shark.

IC (As Fader): *When acting as a spy, it's not only important to become familiar with the location and the routines, but it's also important to assess the threats and learn how to watch out for them.* the rahkshi of chameleon thought to himself as he entered the gym. He was mostly invisible, but if he stood directly under the lights, his form would show up. *Out of all the rahkshi here, the two headed one and the one with the shark fin are literally the biggest in the room.* The navy blue and black rahkshi took out his kanoka launcher and loaded a teleportation disk. The disk shot forward with the power of a Ta-Metru Kanoka as it hurtled towards Shark's head. *When it hits, I'll be teleported and I can deal some major damage to the easiest weak point to hit.*

You may have made the biggest mistake in all of Corpus history attacking Shark for no reason... Edited June 3, 2015 by Wielder-of-Shadow

[Nato G]

R.I.P.

[Naota Takizawa]

Was there anyone who made the biggest mistake prior to Fader attacking Shark?

[Nato G]

Scribbler. 

[Timageness]

1. Ghidora, I noticed that the whole "everybody has a sister" trend was also missing from that list, and while I believe Click technically started it with Hoto, the bulk of the profiles didn't start showing up until after Alpha arrived. Another trend I think should soon be a thing is the Student Register Reincarnation idea (getting a character of the same variation approved immediately after a previous one dies), though the only Rahkshi I know of that falls into that category at the moment is Rail.

2. Rail and Venom are my toughest characters so far, and even I wouldn't have them attack Shark unprovoked. Nice knowing you, Fader.

3. Scribbler, a.k.a. Shadow, made the mistake of, well, scribbling all over Rain's armor. Needless to say, she got her revenge on Visorak, and he didn't survive to tell the tale.

The self entitled brat inside me says I deserve a level up if I defeat shark. 

Edited June 3, 2015 by Liuth

[Nato G]

I deserve a level up if I defeat shark.

 

People who go around claiming they deserve things are usually the ones who get nothing. 

[Not Quite Dead]

I deserve a level up if I defeat shark. I also want to see Shadow's death, anyone got a link to it?

 

Shark proceeded to almost kill Fang, Caoutchouc, then Fang again and then Caoutchouc again.

 

Kat was in there too.

 

Don't mess with Shark, it's a bad idea.

[Rahkshi Lalonde]

from what i've heard of Shark, that "if" is a pretty mighty "if", good luck with the practically-to-fully-dying thing. :u

[Naota Takizawa]

All I can do is wait for Sergei to respond. I'm probably going to have to scrap Fader as quickly as I created him. 

[Nato G]

Shark will do the scrapping, not you. 

[Kovika: Visorak Lord]

Who wants to make a list of everyone on Shark's kill list?

[Nato G]

I'm pretty sure Shark wants to kill everyone. 

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

Yeah, the list already exists - check the first page of the Student Register.

[Nato G]

Wait.... does that mean all of the players/characters who aren't active anymore were killed by Shark? 

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

No, just that he wants to kill them.

 

I thought this kill list was his list of people to kill? If it's people killed then no, the first page isn't a good list.

[Naota Takizawa]

Well, let's go see Fader get torn apart by Shark.
