Name: Adam Galahad Age: 17 Gender: Male Type: Meister Partnered: Yes (to Sophia Lane) Image: Spoiler: click to toggle Clothing and Description: Adam is 5'11 and 165 pounds with an even muscle build. He has dark brown hair and deep purple eyes. His eyes are round and set evenly apart. His facial structure is very sharp looking. He is built very lightly as in he has a lot of lean muscle. His hair is medium length, and rather shaggy-looking. What he wears from day to day varies, but he seems to favor t-shirts and jeans when he's just relaxing or going to school. He also will wear an open buttoned down shirt that has the sleeves rolled up with a matching colored t-shirt underneath. He likes to wear darker colors for the most part. He'll wear crew cut socks and usually white sneakers most of the time. When outside he wears an old blue jacket with a hood. He is always wearing a necklace on a thin silver chain of a bird-like figure. It's sort of his trade mark. He wears a silver digital watch on his left arm. For formal occasions he will wear a suit and tie. He will tend to wear his black suit with a dark colored button downed shirt underneath. He doesn't like wearing ties so he will not unless forced to. The top button of his more formal shirts is always unbuttoned. He would wear matching dress shoes with his suit. What he wears when he expects a fight or is going on a mission is much different than his regular attire. Over his regular clothing, he wears a light armor that covers his chest, stomach and shoulders. Over this, he wears a large dark colored trench coat that falls to his ankles. He wears one thick gauntlet that covers his entire hand and most of his forearm on his right hand but not on the left so that it doesn't inhibit the movement of his weapon arm. His armor consists of steel plates that move along his torso. The entire armor wraps around his back. His shoulders are guarded with similarly made pauldrons, but are hidden under his coat. Adam keeps his armor well polished so it is rather shiny though scratched in many areas. His armor is capable of withstanding light or glancing blows. Strong piercing blows or high impact, blunt blows do no bode well for his armor. His gauntlet is much thicker than his body armor. It is composed of a large, thick, steel cylinder measured to his arm'ss size and shape. Towards the hand it breaks up into smaller plates so that Adam can move his fingers. The gauntlet can withstand very strong direct blows as long as Adam has the strength to block them. Adam carries a regular sword on his back in a scabbard. The strap holding the scabbard goes over his left shoulder and comes down to the right side of his waist across his chest. It is made of leather. His sword's scabbard is metal with a dark trim along its edges. His sword is old and worn. It is chipped, scratched, and completely beyond repair. Even with this, it is sturdy and can still cut...sort of. History: Adam was born in a secluded place in North America to his family seventeen years ago. Here he lived the normal carefree life of a child, playing with his friends, going into school, getting into trouble and stuff like that. His father was once a sword wielding meister and Adam looked up to him and wanted to be like him in every way. His father began showing him how to fight when he was six years old due to his interest in becoming a meister. He enjoyed sparring with his father though it did sometimes cause him to get injured. To him it was like playing catch with a base-ball. Adam was happy and content with his life until one day he came home from school to find his mother dead in the living room. He gasped at the sight of his dead mother and wept at her side for a while until he started wondering where his father was. He looked out the window into the yard and saw three men and his father on his knees with a gun to his head. He was chained up by one of the men and it seemed as if the chain was that man's arm. One of the men saw him through the window and ran after him, then dragged him outside. Adam did not know who these people where, but he assumed that they were old enemies of his father. One of the three men cocked the gun and replaced it behind Adam's father's head. Adam shouted for them not to hurt his daddy. His father pleaded for the three men to let him go. They didn't, but instead grabbed one of the practice swords Adam and his father had used to train that was leaning on the side of the house and gave it to Adam. One of the men introduced himself merely as Gareth. He said that if he could land one hit on him with the sword he was holding, he would let him and his father go. Adam readied his blade and charred at Gareth with a yell. He took a swipe at Gareth but he side stepped it. Adam continued slashing, but he kept missing Gareth. The two other men laughed at him as he fought. Gareth finally got bored. He knocked Adam's sword from his hand, picked him up by the throat and threw him to the ground. The two men forced him to look at his father as Gareth readied his gun once again. Tears came into Adam's eyes. His father said that it was okay and that it wasn't his fault. Gareth then shot him on the spot. It was over in an instant. The blood of Adam's father now resided on his body. The eight year old boy saw his father murdered that day. Gareth consumed his father's soul and then came close to Adam and held the gun to his face. He was about to fire when he stopped and said that Adam wasn't worth the effort. The men holding Adam pushed him to the ground and left with Gareth. Adam sat out in the blood stained yard with one thought in his mind, "I wasn't strong enough." Adam walked inside his home with tears still in his eyes. He had no one left to care for him. No one left to love. He looked by the telephone and saw the number of his father's old weapon partner, Julia. He called her on the phone and asked her to come in the midst of his crying. A few hours later she arrived and saw the gruesome mess left by the murderers. She took pity on Adam and said that she would take care of him. Before they left the house, Adam turned to the corpses of his dead parents. He quietly swore to himself that he would become stronger so that he never had to feel the pain of loss ever again. Julia adopted Adam as her son and took care of him for many years. She had become a friend and mentor to Adam and supervised his training. Over this time, he had become much stronger and he was exhibiting special powers that resembled that of a meister. His new mother had decided that it would be good for him to go to Shibusen, a special academy for people like himself. Adam still entertained the thought of becoming a meister like his father so it excited him to hear that he was going. Julia brought him to Death City and enrolled him in the academy. Adam said his farewells and began his new life within the walls of Shibusen. Personality: Adam is a very calm and easy going young man for the most part. He is friendly, kind, and can never turn a blind eye to a person in need. This has the tendency to get him in a lot of trouble because he gets involved in a lot of things that don't involve him. He is overly trusting and can be easily deceived by anyone in anything once, however once he finds out about that deception, he will lose all trust in that person and it is always difficult to regain that trust. Even with his more cool headed approach to situations, if his friends or innocent lives are in danger, he will fight viciously. He is very protective and values the lives of others over his own. He does not fear the death of himself, but instead he fears the loss of his friends and the pain that comes with it. He would sooner sacrifice himself then feel the pain that comes with the loss of a friend or family member. This is his reason to become stronger. Adam is not very studious. He does not put all his effort into his studies at the academy; in fact, he is quite lazy when it comes to book work. He prefers much more to practice his fighting in a sparring match with someone. Adam enjoys sleep and will sometimes fall asleep in class or oversleep and be late for certain appointments. His goals tend to lean more toward perfecting his swordsmanship and his melee combat abilities. Not many things will make Adam angry, but the things that are able to make him angry push him much farther than anger. It seems to be more of an utter hatred. He hates all injustice and those who prey on those weaker than themselves. He despises murder as well as the consumption of innocent souls with a deep passion. He hates people who threaten the lives of those he cares about. He is one who believes very much in the ideal of justice. He does not like when people's basic human rights are violated and if he sees injustice, he will usually intervene. Adam has not surpassed is fear and is unable to control it at times. His fear will usually turn into anger. He fears the loss of his friends and family above all else. It utterly terrifies him. He fears not being strong enough to protect them. He does try to use that fear to his advantage though. With it he is able to strengthen himself in intense situations and to motivate himself to become stronger than he is. Adam's likes include playing sports and weapon training. He enjoys listening to instrumental jazz or rock in his spare time. If he is stuck in the house he will either play his tenor saxophone or his guitar. He is not a big fan of reading, so you will rarely see him pick up a book unless it’s something that really interests him. It would probably have to be something about weapons, combat or strategy for him to take even a small interest. Abilities: Technique Name: Soul Imbue Effects/Description: This ability allows Adam to chanel the energy coming from his soul through his body into weapons and items. This will make his items more powerful and more effective. For example, if he used his imbue on his sword, it would be able to slice through harder materials more easily. If he used imbue on his gauntlet, he would be able to withstand more attacks or deliver a powerful punch with that arm. Adam may only use Imbue a few times per thread due to the high drain of energy. Technique Name: Resolve Effects/Description: Adam's physical abilities will increase greatly when this is effect. For example, he will become faster, stronger, his sight will improve, ect. This ability at it's current state will double his power. The way this works is that when he takes alot of damage in the battle, resolve will activate. His mental state changes to a completely mission oriented thought that sends his soul into overdrive giving him the ability to fight longer and harder. It provides the ability to deal more damgeing attacks at a faster pace. The drawback is that it only lasts so long. Resolve only lasts for about two minutes. He cannot sustain this power indefinitely and when it deactivates Adam will suffer from extreme exaustion, making it difficult for him to move for three or four posts. Combat Style: Adam adapts quickly to new challenges in a fight and tends to rely on speed over strength. Instead of getting one good, heavy hit on an enemy, he'd prefer five quick, well placed strokes of his blade. His strategy mainly starts with him launching an attack with his power, soul imbue, then chargeing in to the enemy. In view of larger strategy, he tends to like to break up enemy forces into smaller more manageable groups. Strengths:
Weaknesses:
RP Sample: Adam sighed and unlocked the door to his new home. It was a decent sized apartment on the second floor of the building. He laid a pale blue suitcase on the floor along with his back-pack and his saxophone case. He took an empty scabbard and put it on his desk that had been moved to the building before he had arrived. At the far end of the apartment was a small balcony with a black rail guarding the edge. He walked out on to the balcony and leaned out on the rail. From the balcony he had a wonderful view of Death City. In the distance he could see the great spires of the DWMA, his future school. Adam walked back into his room from the balcony and started going down the steps to the car he had been driven in. He took out a large suitcase and his guitar case out of the car's trunk. He fastened the strap of the guitar case over his back then took out his music stand and closed the trunk. He waved to the driver to let him know that he was done and watched him drive off before returning to his room. He came up the stairs and laid down the rest of his belongings. Adam shut the door behind him and sat on the couch just to try to take in all that was going on. "Tomorrow I become a pupil in the Death Weapon Meister Academy." he thought. "I begin training to become a meister...like my father." He noticed that there was a small container on the coffee table in front of him. He picked up the container and opened it to find a necklace of a powerful bird and a note within. The note said, "This necklace used to be your father's good luck charm in his meister days. Wear it in honor of his memory and may it bring some luck to you - Julia." Adam looked down at the silver necklace and put it around his neck. He sat back in his chair with a renewed sense of pride. He looked over to the desk where he had laid the empty scabbard and paused for a moment. "Its about time for me to find myself a weapon partner." he said.

Yoiii~~ I'm impressed you got your character ready so quickly~ ^^ Let's see how much we can improve this profile between the two of us :3 Description: You've done a nice job here, and you've added some good details Could you tell me a little more about his mission attire thought? I'd love to know what his light armour & gauntlet looks like, and what it might be able to defend ^^If he tends to take “normal” weapons with him, could you also list these? (eg: If he walks about with a normal sword, instead of a Demon Weapon like Soul or Tsubaki) History: Quite nice You did a good job of explaining how he became who he is.Abilities: I like what you've written here :3 However, could you choose just two of these techniques to start your character with? Generally speaking Soul Eater characters seem to be less ability-dependant than some other anime, so we encourage starting characters to only have a few :3 Strengths/Weaknesses: At the moment it seems that he is all strengths and no weaknesses :3 Could you perhaps add in a weakness that might make it harder for him to win a battle? It could make Rping a bit more fun for you, and it will give your character something to improve, which seems to be a big part of his character ^__^ |

Allright thanks. I edited it. I think I got the description and I deleted some abilities. Strengths and weaknesses I changed, but I'm not sure if I did it right. |

Thanks for the edits ^__^ Abilities: I like his two abilities, but I'm curious to learn a bit more about them. Could you go into a little more detail so I can really understand them? :3 I'd love to know a bit more about how much he improves when he is hurt, and there is any drawbacks (eg: He falls unconscious a few posts later from blood loss, or some such). I'd also like to more about his imbuing! I should also mention that the ability section is a comprehensive list of abilities- so if he has soul perception or anything you might have forgotten, make sure you write it in now ^__^ Strengths/Weaknesses: These can be really hard to write I know @_@ You've made a good stab at it, but I thought I might be able to help you a bit. Perhaps you could add a combat weakness, rather than a personality weakness? At the moment you have the following:
But once we remove some of the rare situation-only weaknesses & a double up he has...
This would be great, but unfortunately these weakness actually makes him a lot stronger in battle @_@ You also mention he is a great analyst and hangs back in battle, but he is reckless? I'd love to more about this! Good luck~! You've done a really nice profile, but I think we can make it a really great profile between us! ^__^ |

For the abilities I eleaborated on imbue and resolve. What I did not understand was when you said the abilities thing was a comprehensive list. I wanted to add soul perception, but you said I could only have two techniques. Or is it just a list of what he might have later? Now I see what you mean. I wrote that he sacrifices strength for speed. I don't know if that's acceptable. I just didn't want to write "He's weak." For combat style I definitely see what you mean. Those two conflicted too much and i change it up. |

Thanks for the edits :3 One thing that might help you out a little is to re-read the Rules & Guidelines. There's something in there you might like! Weaknesses: Could you please remove
As everyone is weak to these? :3 He is better armoured than most people, so this would probably be even less of a weakness for him (especially considering his super speed). Weaknesses can be hard to write for, but they are specifically Adam's flaws- eg: Adam in particular is not very strong. Overall though, it is no great drama if he has no large flaws- it just means that his abilities cannot be as powerful (to balance things out ^_^) Abilities: As you guessed, Soul Perception counts as one of his two abilities You should also split Soul Imbue into "Soul Imbue" and "Soul Imbue Shot"- and once again this would count towards your two abilities ^^;; Sorry to be a stickler with this, but I really try to make sure characters only have 1 or 2 starting abilities. Once you start completing threads you can start gaining more abilities, and becoming as powerful as you like! |

*face desk* Looks like I missed that one. I added it. For weaknesses I removed what you said to. I wrote that he was not particularly strong and I added another one. Do you think this one makes sense? For abillities I removed the ranged attack from imbue. Thanks for helping me out with this. I'm sorry that its taking me so long to get it right. |

Thanks for your edits :3 It has been fun to help you polish up the profile~ It is nice to see profiles shine more and more each time. Everything is looking pretty good to me- I like your new weakness in particular- so there are just 3 things I'd like for you to do before I accept this
Other than these small things, I think you've done a really good job of making an interesting and unique character ^^ |

Thanks.I just noticed this @_@ Could you remove it? "his soul attacks will become more powerful, ect." just for fairness and so he can't turn his sword into something stronger than Excalibur :3 Other than that- looks good~ If you're not too frustrated by my modding it'd be nice to put in just a very very rough idea about how much he improves :3 eg: if it twice as strong, or 20 times stronger. Naturally, if it turns out to be way too big an increase I'll ask to tone it down a tad ^^ Can't have him lifting up sky-scrapers after all! |
