No he said brown hair. And I'm just having some fun . Its all cool

[Tassatul]

know one knows. . .

Sorry, listening to Queens of the Stone Age as i type ;D Now theres a good band. Uhhh, i cant think of any more Maho stuff. I guess were just waiting for Palla. . .

[Cobra5]

Who came home today, I might add.

[palla]

Yes, I am, indeed, back from Ohio.

Anyways...

...Pix, the blonde with blue hair thing is okay, but I don't think blue would be natural for your character. If her hair color is affected by her magic, then it wouldn't be blue because it is from Earth magic, not Air or Water.

Bug Hunter, Pix's magic would fall under Earth cause it's dealing with plants and things, hence Earth.

What with the changes to the characters (which I have to move around), and the fact that I am semi busy what with just getting home, I will write something and give it to either Dan or Will to post, or if I can I will post it myself. Fear not! It will be cool! ;D

[BugHunter]

No, when i said

I think wide knowledge of plants and control plants growth belongs in Other Talents. And i'd think your spell would be to heal, right?

I meant that wide knowledge of plants sounded like a skill and not a spell. And she didn't list anything in spells, so i thought she should put in Heal since she seems like a healer

And i made a revision to my character. here, I'll repost it just in case you missed it:

Name: Tanyu Onikage (this is the 5th version and is similar to the GTA version)
Alias: “The Blade”
Sex: Male
Age: 20 22
Eye Color: Dark Brown
Hair Color/Style: Black (spikey)
Height: 5’ 10”
Body Build: Slim but strong Muscular, but not beefy
Profession: Bounty Hunter
Specialty: Getting his Bounties Pay
Other Talents: Close Combat, Blades, Marksmanship, and Weapons; able to down a full mug of beer in gulp

Magic: na
Spells: na

Weapons:
- Kitana
- Explosives
- Customized Twin Pistols
- Concealable Wrist blades
- Ankle Knife
- Incapacitation Devices (like the halo or magnetic cuffs; all for safe capture of bounties that are needed alive)
- Experimental Laser Rifle (stolen from a lab; but he didn’t steal it even though he has it now; requires a short recharge time before each shot but contains power cells that will last 300 years)

Other Equipment:
- Black bullet proof trenchcoat (conceales weapons and is quite fashionable in this line of work)
- Body armor
- Leather gloves (the cool kind that Predator has)
- Sunglasses (for the style)
- steel toed boots

Bio: Tanyu is a fairly young bounty hunter who works for the highest bidder. He’s been know to take jobs as a mercenary, a soldier, and even as a body guard but for the most part he’s just another contract killer. But more popularly, his profession calls upon hunting down criminals (at least, thought to be criminals) and bringing them in, dead or alive (depending on the rules for the reward). And even though he may be a rookie by his group’s standards, he can still face off with the best and is still very professional He's a rookie by by his group's standards, he's been in the profession for only 5 years. Before then, he was in light military training as a child. He also has a tendency to not take things seriously and is a bit carefree at times. However, when appropriate he does get serious. And even then, Tanyu still can’t resist a good drink. Unfortunately, he gets a bit goofy when he gets drunk. He also got the name "The Blade" for being known to use and his ability with a kitana sword which he keeps hidden on the inside back of his trenchcoat.

He’s part of a small secret underground organization with other hunters. Its not exactly secret... like, people in high places know its there, but they dont do anything to get rid of them. In fact, they rather like hiring them because they're so good at their work. However, its mostly rare to see more than one working together on jobs. At the present time, Tanyu's organization are mostly taking jobs from the Project Maho organization since they’re currently offering high bounties on people with “talents”. They dont know that Project Maho are doing bad stuff, they just tell them they're criminals with magic powers. But what do they care, they're just bounties to the hunters. So sometimes you can see Tanyu's people working in accordance with agents. The score count for Tanyu is 5 right now, two of them being "talented", but his co-workers (who’ve been at this much longer, and are better) have taken in several more, normal and "talented". During one capture of a magic user, who stole a bunch of experimental items from a Project Maho lab, he decided to keep an experimental laser rifle the guy stole. Curiously enough, no one seems to miss it.

Pros:
- Skills in combat and weapons
- Very professional
- Mostly Carefree

Cons:
- Not as good as his co-workers
- Loves a good drink (gets drunk)
- Works for the highest bidder (could work for the bad guys)
- Still a rookie (by the others' standards)
- Carefree

((I might make stats for other bounty hunters, but if i do, they're probably going to be the same as the ones from Bugs Itch, just general, simple characters. That is if i decide to do so.))

[palla]

No, I got it. I have it saved on my disk, which I have to run upstairs and get. It will be up by the time I log off today, promise. Maybe I'll even have an intro written for the RPG.

[Tassatul]

It has begun!! yay

[BugHunter]

Arent you going to post it on the info thread?

[palla]

I just modified the previous post with your profile in it.

[BugHunter]

Oh ok

Hey Will, that is so cheap, lol. I thought you were just going to base your character on Vash, not copy his look completely . Hey, does he have scars all over his body? Or how bout a mechanical gun arm? Or zig zagging glasses? And why is he threatening to kill someone? A character like Vash, or based on him, wouldn't do that

[Cobra5]

I was debating, originally, weather or not to change his look. I decided to change it, but keep the trench coat cause, well, it's really cool. And well... since I kept the trench coat he bassically looks the same ;D

He dosn't have the robotic gun arm. I thought about it for a while but I thought that it didn't really fit well with the semi-realistic universe. As for the shades... I'm still debating on that.

For those of you who don't know what we are talking about, this is the guy I based my character on:



To see the squiqlly shades, look closly at his glasses in the top picture. The part that goes back to your ear is shaped like a W.

And he's threatening to kill the guy because the guy sitting next to him was a bounty hunter about to try and take him hostage. ;D So he's gonna ask for a few bucks to pay for the drink and then leave him be, which sounds something more like Vash would do. ;D

[palla]

I was reading your post, Will, and I was thinking basically what Bug Hunter said. Your character is a lot like Vash. Why? I mean, he's a cool character, but still.

[Cobra5]

But still... what? I wanted a character like vash... so I did.

I could change him if ya want.

[copyKatt]

theres a difference betwwen baseing a character off someone and then useing a character as your own. basically you are playing as vash in the RPG.

[Dr. Dan]

Come on guys, wills just having fun role playing someone that is super-luckey. Hes just havin a great time...heck roleplaying someone like that even I'd enjoy, let it go...
