Alright, I'm done making up random characters for now. Go ahead and email me whatever you have so far. I'm going to request this thread be closed and open up a new one in FanFiction, where this should have been in the first place. I'm also going to open the Official IC thread so those of you who already have enough character information can begin the roleplay.

Any last words?

Yeah ~-~ It's a very small section and you have to add the modifiers yourself. I put the other two attacks my Tiger gets in the special abilities section.

Well, I'll get this thing downloaded transfer my sheet over and send it to ya.

Well, it's not wanting to install on my computer... I'm going to try it on my parents and then if that doesn't work I'll have to send you everything :/

If nothing else, hit ctrl+p, print the document off as an XML file and send that to me. At least that way you won't have to type everything out again.

--------------------------------

THE WORLD
Name: Reverie
Class: (Flicker Reaper) Cleric
Race: Human
Persona: She tends to avoid communication and prefers whispers rather than general speaking due to her lack of trust in fellow players unless they’re literate or occasionally use emoticons to express their feelings to lighten the mood. She’s not anti-social and is often mistaken for being shy because of her apathy towards a large group. She does, however, help lower players with dungeon runs and quests, even so far as to buff them when she passes-by, and often times emoticons containing the number 3 such as o3o to show she is not so stern as she visually appears. In spare time she travels around THE WORLD for nice locations to sit, even as far to roleplay with herself and the environment to make the game more intuitive to her needs she cannot achieve in the REAL WORLD. She farms for materials which she keeps in storage which she later sells in the player market, always selling them at lower prices than the majority.

It immediately became a of habit to enchant herself with buffs which hover around her body through the orbs generating a red glow and on her back like a wing similar to a Skeith. These buffs are often powerful defense buffs, damage absorbers, or counter measures as a safety against player killers. She has also enchanted her weapon, clearly common. It has also been shown to be visually appealing, even being asked where she or how she designed her attire. She was even accused hacking to make herself be visually appealing as a dark character, but Reverie shrugs it off and says it was based off her interpretation of herself and reflection of the virtual world. Apparently the color tends to change depending which buffs she has similar to one another, but Reverie claims she can change the color anytime as well as the color of her suit. She tends to keep herself in visual appeal to express her as a strong admiration for a mystical yet techy sort of feel. She has neither admitted nor denied if she’s really a Hacker.

Because of her class and great knowledge of THE WORLD, she’s able to travel to most places on her own with less restriction than others. Reverie has indefinitely helped players because of this such as telling them the location of said things. Normally she is not found in town, often to be located sitting inside dungeons or temples sitting in the throne if there is one – if not, she resorts to sitting on staircases. If she decides to sit in a dungeon that she believes she can complete or has already done so, she’ll repeat the process and sit later as self-reward. Even with her defenses, she is subjected and aware to be player killed at any moment. While it demotes her to venture too far from her safe points, doesn’t stop her from racking up the percentages to achieve the next level so she can keep improving.

She bears a wolf mentality having a different thought process unlike others and continuously wraps herself in means of protection despite she will not be physically harmed in the THE WORLD in terms of actual wounds and injuries, but knows there is an underlying because she will be affected. This does not change her able to be talkative and somewhat friendly to not be mistaken for a jerk; Reverie will at times break into a faint laughter for no apparently reason. She tends to be talkative when it comes to posting on the boards, but hates running around the center of town. She also has no interest in being in guilds, and instantly rejects invitations.

Reverie acts hermitlike in terms of questing and grinding unless forced to be grouped. She has strong tendencies to be critical when she’s unable to play to her fullest potential and pegs 70% of the time, being in a party is a waste, but never did she deny the 30% has been fun when she meets the ‘right’ people. She has a very small friend list, and even so doesn’t speak with them frequently unless the player speaks to her. Due to this she has grown alienated towards the social bridge of the THE WORLD, and considers herself as an unlikely person to be friended. Most of the time people buddy her because of her level and vast knowledge of THE WORLD, but Reverie is often detached and believes she can never make a true genuine friend.

Guild: None

REAL WORLD
Name: Patricia Maruyama
Location: California Los Angeles, United States
Age: 17
Appearance:
Spoiler: click to toggle

Bio: Patricia is the youngest fifth family member of her intermediate branch with two elderly parents and two (older) siblings. Because of the age gap, she finds it very difficult to adjust and apply to the old generation teachings. It has ultimately led her to be distant from them, and literally towards her siblings; both her siblings are out of state happily married, the responsibility to take care of the house and those in it. Due to certain complications and difficulties, she hardens her beliefs of ‘working’ to not be washing the dishes or cooking for her parents, but fails being productive in the eyes of her family. She condensed to truly believing she has no working talents, and can’t be bothered to prove them wrong with such a lack of motivation.

She’s very soft and timid and would grieve her by almost anything in regards to family matters. Her sensitivity leads her to become independent and do things on her own. She reverts back to her shy and quiet self whenever she’s with family, and can only step up when she’s either by herself, friends, generally anyone with no attachment. Patricia feels like a failure to the family because of her lack of courage, and despite the lectures from her siblings in means of comfort, still finds it very hard to do anything around them.

Patricia alone is a very strong-willed when it comes to her hobbies which she labels as childish and undesirable, and doesn’t show it to her relatives as she used to back when she was younger. She enjoys activities such as singing and drawing, even posting her works on the internet. Patricia has also joined a website dedicated to videos which is well known for talented armature singers, her name being Kotone (琴音), meaning Harp Sound in Japanese, when presented in choruses. Her nickname on forums is also Kotone, but sometimes with a ★ added after. The origin of her nickname is also her real name before it was finalized and changed. Originally her name was supposed to be Kotone Maruyama. She’s Japanese-American, fluent in both English and Japanese.

Currently Patricia has no game plan for the future other than obtaining her associates like her parents recommend. While she says she understands, she has yet to figure out her own ways in life, leading her to be cooped up in her room. Occasionally she will go for walks around her neighborhood, only when it’s cold and quiet. She thinks people her age and younger are annoying, primarily when she watches movies and kids are talking in the back of the theater. She will not hesitate to get up and tell them to shut up after a certain limit.

Overtime Patricia began closing her heart to a point where she even believes the concept of dating and romantic relationships is a waste; even friendship. Though she denies it, this hasn’t stopped her from keeping ‘some’ of her friends. She has encountered many social-psychological problems to a degree she denies she’s depressed or undergoing issues. It’s definitive she’s suffering, but doesn’t let people go pats her barriers. She has developed to become so cynical, she stopped keeping contact with her friends, and even breaking friendships for means of being alone. She knows what she’s doing isn’t right, but can only find it as her means of escape and to prove her point of how selfish she really is.

She has a cousin named Patrick Navarro up in Seattle whom she (used to) communicates with frequently. When they were kids, they avoided speaking with each other due to their shyness. But when they realized both their interest in dogs, mainly the Border Collie, the two became instantly close and brought the introduction of Milk into the family. From there Patricia became temporarily dependent on Patrick for moral support and fun until he moved. Whenever he visits, she's ecstatic and pleased. But as of late, she hasn't been the same towards him as if holding a grudge that he left her. Patricia kept her feelings silent that she still feels wounded by his departure. Nevertheless she encourages his progression and continues to welcome him.

She’s highly educated and considers obtaining a major in psychology, sociology or child development. She once dreamed to be a counselor so she can help and listen to people’s problems when many around her failed to do so. She’s very compassionate when listening, and refers it’s the only piece she fails to give up. She has yet to find a group where she can really express her interests, and fears her future as she grows older will be a bitter one. She’s very contradicting and is scared of what people think of her; admitting her flaws, and self-hates because of it.
Reason: Patricia joined the THE WORLD when she was browsing the internet for something to play and also recommended by her friends. She was entranced by the media and their advertisement, she was hyped to play and get in the game as soon as possible. She was immediately hooked in the game, even researched beforehand what class she was going to play. Since starting the game, Patricia has been playing morning till night, and whenever she got back from school, the only time she would excuse herself from it was doing homework or eating. She found it as an excuse to stay on the computer for longer periods of time, fluttering to the virtual world, but still retaining her needs and those around her. She doesn’t believe she’s addicted nor obsesses over the game, and considers it playing for fun.

She actually started the game as a female Human-(Wavemaster) Sorcerer named Purecapsule, once in a high-powerful guild called Legendary as one of their Officers. Purecapsule was known to be a very friendly and exuberant character with knowledge of character development when it came to (Wavemasters) Sorcerers, and even helped in countless dungeon runs, whole-heartedly rewarded. She was also popularized to have a very appealing avatar and had a lot of costumes. She had a massive friendlist, and always received emails, which she replied to. Unfortunately with no explanation, Purecapsule stopped logging onto the game and no longer replied to her emails. There were no traces of her whereabouts, not even posting on the message boards in regards to what happened to her.

Patricia actually never left the game, having started anew with her new character, Reverie, where she turned cold turkey and started doing things differently. She has retained some dignity by certain habits, and kept her visual appeal which people suspect she was hacking whereas Purecapsule was not. Whether or not Patricia is committed to hacking or not does not change or pressure her to reveal who she really is, but bears similar characteristics of her previous avatar by being a beauty with long flowing hair. Ironically Reverie was a (Flicker Reaper) Cleric even though she preferred to be by herself. What has changed her so dramatically forced her either in THE WORLD or the REAL WORLD remains unknown.
Living situation: Patricia is in her senior year of High School and is just about to graduate. She does a lot of volunteer work, picking part-time jobs such as taking care of pets and children. She’s middle-class, but most of the time is left alone in the house unaware what’s going on with her parents. Even she were to graduate, going to college seems far off, and feels hopeless in even getting some sort of wage that can keep her sustained if she ever thinks of moving out. She admires the ideal of hard work will be rewarded, but due to complications, believes it’s just feigning ignorance. This doesn’t stop her from still doing part times or volunteer work, getting a bit of money here and there to help her with her own needs so she doesn’t have to ask her parents, who are in their late 60’s. She lives in a two story house in a quiet neighborhood with a (female) Border Collie named Milk.

Approved. Also, I -believe- I have sufficient information to open the official thread, both in ooc, and ic. I'll request this thread closed shortly.

You can't really say the OOC thread is open when the information for actually building the character isn't even up, unless you're just expecting people to go from the sight listed without so much as a skeleton. (if that is the case I hate to say it but it's not likely to do too well.)

Character Profile

THE WORLD
Name: Lezarde
Class: Blade Brandier
Race: Human
Persona: Nice, caring and helpful gentleman. He is selfish in his own way; and added with his determination, he is hard to be put down. Stubborn at times. He is in no rush and tackles things through his own pace. Frustrating to others, but this is how he works. He can spend days on a quest, but will be focused just to finish it. Though he dislikes the word "Grinding", he tends to spend a long time killing monsters or anything in his way to his goal. He doesnt look at it that way because he focuses on other things aka. treasure, money or helping a friend. Merciless to KSing, he had his fair share of it in other games and above all, hated it. He is a gentleman. If he did a KSing himself or accidentally did something wrong, he quickly apologize in such a respectful manner. He believes in equivalent exchange. You do something for him and he shall repay you back in the future or when you need him. Seemed like he was raised well. Treating women with much respect. He has a smooth attitude and sometimes flirt. He doesnt like to see women killed and will throw himself in there to protect them. Its not that he sees them as weak, its just he doesnt want them to "die".

Lezarde is the type to save up his money. If he wants something valuable, he is determined to get it whether it be trading or buying. He buys if necessary or catches his eyes. He is a fanatic with weapons, mainly blades, as well as costumes and accessories. Especially monocles and glasses. He has build up a collection. Through his connections, he had a wavemaster got him a "house" of his own to store his collection.

In his spare time, he would travel around The World and explore. Enjoying the scenery, he can spend his time sitting down and drink sake. Not only that, but he also PK's for fun. He would quickly offer his services to any new players in the game. Hes the type of guy to socialize with party members or traders. Because of this, he is popular and has a long list of friends. In times of serious need, he can assure he will have help.

Appearance: ( No picture available at the moment, going to draw it later) He may look like a mage with his cape, but its just his fashion statement. He wields a katana which is strapped around his left waist. Mostly recognizable through his monocle wearing. Black hair with a neat cut. His bangs slightly covered the left side of his face. Enchanting dark blue eyes.
Guild: Legendary (recently joined)

REAL WORLD
Name: Ragnar Ranvier De' Leon
Location: USA, California
Age: 19
Appearance:
Bio: : Ragnar is a student in college. Hard working and respectful. Hes still the same, you could say, as if he was in the game. If he has work or homework, he "quickly" finishes it to move on to what he wants. Since he is a student, he studies and easily passes his classes. He has a neautral liking to school but appreciates it for his friends. Usually calm in situations and tends to observe things.

In his mind, the day just go by in a repetitive way. Go to school in the morning, play in the night. He has no goals yet for his future but he is thinking about becoming a professor and majoring in History.

Reason: The reason why he played the MMO was because he wanted to escape the reality he had. Hearing it from a friend, he took the curiosity and bought this game. To his surprised it is the type of game he enjoys playing and turned it to a whole new level. He has been playing it for a while now and isnt tired of it at all. Once playing, he is focused on it and wont stop until he is satisfied. He tend to skip meals, even for the whole day. But unlike others, he wont stay up all day and night. He needs to sleep and will stop late at night to rest.

Living situation: When hes not playing, he is at school. He enjoys the subject, History. Would even go as far as considering the History Channel as one of his tv channel favorites. He watches anime and also listens to some japanese music. He understands a little bit of japanese because of it. Living on his own, he can basically do whatever he wants. His family is very wealthy and helps him if he runs low on his resources, as well as scholarships. This explains his personality. Atleast he isnt stuck up, which he is proud not to have. He would call them at times to be checked up on, but other than that he can handle himself. He gets to drive around in a car that was given to him by his parents. Ragnar rarely goes out unless he needs to like shopping for groceries. He still goes visits his friends and relatives but only in special ocassions. He is more focused on playing his games since it consumes most of his day.
