otter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) Samurai are epic.I feel we need to have some Sohllikan be more similar to Chinese/Japanese Dragons than European now.Just to make some Dragon Daimyo.

Oblitus Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 About the Sohllikan. Are they element based? Or just fire and ice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Mainly just fire and ice, though they have latent psionics abilities, which can manifest in a number of ways. Of course, I can imagine you could liken elements to preferences in climate and what not.Those dragons that prefer flying, would be like Le-Matoran in the air.Those that would like being around volcanoes and what not, Ta-Matoran like dragons.And so on, and so on. profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 If I were to make a dragon it would be a scheming, conniving worm, smaller and weaker but much faster and one of, if not the most intelligent of the species. A master of his psionic abilities, and, naturally, a traitor just waiting for a chance to do that. The type of person you don't invite to a party.Frankly, I don't want to murder Grochi's character with his own species in a power bid, so I'm gonna go with destroying the wills of every single living being on the planet and enslaving them.

Well, I guess it depends on what your saving throw vs. having a smaller, faster dragon land on your back when you were grounded and go for your throat when you were already distracted, and making use of illusionary attacks and the environment to further keep you disoriented and a greater level of psionic power striking back to slow reflexes.But this mindless banter will end soon enough when you're all mind slaves.-Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blessed Blade Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 The anime swords are usually known as "Buster swords/blades". Probably based off of the Japanese Zanbato, an anti-cavalry sword that was taller then the person wielding it.Sword geeking over, I will have a profile up soon. Samurai anyone?Well, it was a similar idea; in terms of stylized design, but is likely not nearly as exaggerated.

otter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Hey Blade, I was just looking at Arkara, and I noticed you implied a broadsword is a weapon used in two hands.You sicken me.-Toa Levacius Zehvor I just noticed this, and had to comment if it hasn't already been done:A broadsword is a two-edged weapon, with a basket hilt in most cases. It is used as a one-handed weapon, in many cases with a buckler in the off hand, though not necessarily. It was called a broadsword in the pure sense that the blade was broader than that of a rapier, a weapon the developed around the same time as it.At least, from my memory that's why. Still, it is not a two-handed weapon, that is a modern misconception. I hate it when people think with modern misconceiptions, coming up with things like this. profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blessed Blade Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 That seems just like what Lev said. =PBut I admit my mistake; it's what you get for having an image of what you're trying to say in your mind, and trying to find the correct word for it, at 10 at night, while multitasking and hurrying to get other stuff up at the same time. =PI'll fix it up when I edit the post to include the other profiles.

Blessed Blade Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 Took me a few moments to realize what was going on.

otter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Of course, greatsword is newer as well. You would be infinitely more correct by saying Longsword.That denotes, generally in the Medievel or Rennaisance sense, a weapon made for use with two hands-or a Hand-and-a-half sword, which is one or two handed, as the name implies.You could always just go with Two-handed sword, which has been in use for years.EDIT: épée bâtarde.

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 "Friend" sword? So that's how it censors. :PWhenever play D&D, I always end up with one of those. The best name to use, Grochi, would be 'hand and a half sword', in reference to the fact that the blade was designed for use either in one hand or with both, as the situation deemed necessary.-Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 That's what I described just earlier.Though you could always say Great Sword, which referred to such weapons as the Claymore, Zweihander, and other such large, two-handed swords.You know, just say claidheamh mòr.

Voltex Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) Username: ibrowCharacter Name: “Endelig”Gender: MaleSpecies: Agori (Lost Gravity Tribe)Faction: NeutralEquipment: A lightweight but strong wooden staff, a sword, and a small dagger.Bio: Endelig is a member of the long-lost Gravity Tribe that once prospered on Spherus-Magna, and is possibly one of the oldest Agori still alive, clocking in at more than 300, 000 years of age. However, at the same time when the mysterious dream plague took hold of the Iron Tribe, Endelig could only watch as his own tribe fell victim to a mysterious force that caused their armor to slowly crumple into itself, crushing the Agori inside. Endelig led a group of seven other Agori from the Gravity Tribe on an expedition for a cure- it took several months, and when the remaining five Agori arrived back home, everyone else was gone. Endelig and the other four separated to go their separate ways, and Endelig himself has been living with the City in the Sky for some time, surviving on the streets. He has been looking to join either the Machines or the Faithful for a long time, in the hopes that he might make it down to the surface to explore the ruins that lay below and finally find an answer to what caused his tribe’s near extinction. Endelig’s true name is known by nobody, and it’s a question whether Endelig remembers himself. He took upon the name when he and his fellow Agori parted ways, as a way of naming himself a final surviving member of the Gravity Tribe.Appearance: Imagine THIS character, except he is an Agori with black and purple armor. He wears a helmet instead of the mask present, though it is shaped in a very similar manner. His dagger, sword and staff are hidden underneath an all black travelling cloak that includes a hood, which is often up and shrouding Endelig’s face in shadows.
