Well, I wanted it to do a lot more but I figured that this was already too much as it is so... umm... nerf away sweatdrop .
RPC Name: Nai
Rank: Novice
Talent Description: Through a strange and somewhat chaotic combination of void and energy, Nai can defragment any energy-related skills by accessing them with her potential for energy control and then splitting their energy "program" with her potential for void control. The result is a mass of chaos that can't really be used for much.
Before moving onto the specifics of the main branch of the talent, there are two minor branches of Nai's special ability.
Energy- Nai is able to passively feel the energies and auras around her. With enough training (I'll make a passive skill for this and, trust me, it's not going to be easy training), Nai is even able to fight without her eyes if need be. However, this ability is nowhere near as far-reaching as a seer's (can only reach up to a single thread) and can only differentiate between and identify individuals without revealing any other information.
Void- Neither Nai's future nor past can be seen by seers and she is able to completely suppress her energy, causing her own self to be unseeable to seers as well. While hiding her energy with void, Nai must not be attacking or fighting in any way. In short, it can only be used as a maneuver to sneak past an energy sensor. The only condition when it can be used in battle is if Nai is trying to get away from the seer and she remains at least two meters away from the energy sensor (distance doesn't matter when she's not in combat). This ability to hide energy can be used to hide specific portion's of Nai's energy, such as just the energy of sin, instead of hiding all of her energy. Nai's void attribute also makes her immune to the advancements of succubi/incubi.
Back to Nai's complicated main ability. By integrating her own energy into the energy of another person's, Nai can wreak havoc to it and throw the energy of an energy-related skill (any skill that sends out a burst of energy, not only arcanist skills, and including elemental magic, necromancer skills, and bard skills) into a mass of useless chaos. To do this, though, she must first analyze the energy of whatever she is targeting to understand how it needs to be broken up. In order to fulfill this requirement, Nai must either see the skill she wishes to disable at least three times or analyze the skill (if it's a long-lasting skill like a seal or a barrier) for at least three posts. After understanding the energy make-up of whatever she wants to dismantle, she then needs to use half the energy used initially for the skill she is targeting to disable it (this amount changes in certain circumstances). Nai can also do the same thing with void-related and chaos-related skills.
There are a number of other possible skills for this talent, but they must be learned and will be applied for in the custom skills thread.
Talent Weakness: Nai cannot have the regular elements, a result that makes sense if the chaos that results from her combination of void and energy is seen as her own, personal element. In addition, she must be in charge of her body while using her talent. She can use it with her sin (if she ever gets it) but Sloth must not be the main conscious. When dealing with mages, necromancers, bards, and/or clerics, Nai must use 3/4 of her energy instead of 1/2 to disable their class-specific skills (note: class-specific skills refer to necromancer skills for necromancers, energy skills for arcanists, music skills for bards, etc.).
An additional perk is that, because of the volatile mixture of energy and void, Nai's time will eventually stop and she'll stop aging. When? It is currently unknown….
How did the character get this talent?: Nai has always had an unknown past, made even more mysterious by the fact that her first memories involve the blood and death of the constant slave battles she was forced to participate in. However, there is something special about her, present by the fact that she managed to survive the world she came from long enough to gain her freedom. This talent is also, understandably, connected to her unknown Quicksilver bloodline and will be her first hint of it: a mixture of void and energy that creates a chaotic element that is enough to slow down time. How she got either her talent or the bloodline, the girl doesn't know.
Sample: Nai crept quietly and slowly behind the unwitting seer, following her to wherever she decided to go to. She had surrounded herself with void and so was undetectable through energy and the seer had little else to go by to detect the girl. However, it didn't take long for Nai to realize that she was being followed as well by an unfamiliar energy signature. She couldn't tell anything from it, but it was definitely there. However, she showed no signs of recognition and simply continued to follow the seer as she had done before while also keeping an eye on the new energy signature.
Suddenly but not surprisingly, the energy signal in the bush attack Nai, to which the girl immediately responded with a quiet energy bullet right into her attacker's head. However, sound or no sound, the seer immediately sensed Nai's energy behind her as the girl used the skill. The fact that she hadn't sensed it before simply put Nai's target even more on defense and she immediately sent out numerous Halcons. Nai dodged as many as she could while disabling whatever she couldn't dodge. She had seen another arcanist use the skill before so the girl knew the "program" for the skill.
However, Nai had definitely never seen the large blast of energy that suddenly came to her from the side from what seemed to be a floating mirror of sorts. Apparently, the mirror was a custom weapon, explaining why the girl had been unable to identify the attack and, as she defended and dodged against the blows, she observed each attack from the mirror whenever she could. The task wasn't easy. With the seer still firing numerous halcons and with the moving mirror shooting out blasts whenever Nai least expected it, she became wounded quickly.
Finally, though, Nai learned the trick to the mirror blast and, rushing towards the mirror as it fired at her, stopped the energy blasting from it and smashed the reflective glass with her tonfa. The annoying weapon gone, the girl then looked around for the seer she had been in charge of tracking, only to find her target gone. Nai did nothing but look for a few more minutes before settling down to quickly deal with the numerous wounds on her body. She didn't worry too much about losing the seer, it would be a while before the injured arcanist would be able to leave Nai's energy-sensing range.

RPC Name: Vlad Tepes
Rank: Trainee
Talent Description:
From Vlad's history, it was said he took his last breath by drinking the blood of his comrads in the crusade wars. Thus, he was reborned a vampire from the deal with death he made. Being a vampire for so long, as well as claiming many souls and the nature of his turn, became stronger then the average vampire. All of his vampiric abilities and skills are stronger by one rank. Capable of learning the skills of vampires quicker by one rank.
Talent Weakness:
Unfortunately, from mainly focusing on his vampiric skills and styles of his class and such, he is shown to be able to use energy, but not able to perform any elemental skills.
How did the character get this talent?:
Instead of being turned by another vampire, he drank the blood of his fallen comrad in the crusade wars. With his last breath, he swore to come back at all costs to avoid death. His cries heard, he awoken as a true vampire.
Sample:
Vlad sighed as he looked at the new vampire before him. He was causing so much trouble, and more so for Vlad since he had to clean it up. "Fledglings....always think they are big s**t" He muttered with a slight smile on his face as the vampire rushed in, throwing a fist at his head. The vampire was about the same rank as him, same class. However, fledglings annoyed him for one main reason, they believe they are at the top of the world and take more then what they should. Vlad countered by throwing his fst into the oncoming attack, the fists colliding. A sharp crunch was heard as the new vampire's arm shattered, and Vlad moved his other hand to his neck, pulling him forward and thrusted his knee deep into the vampire's gut, causing him to double over in pain as Vlad's hands found his neck, and a loud snap was heard. Dropping the body, Vlad looked down at it and stomped on the head, his foot smashing into it like a pumpkin. "Tch, so messy. But the blood looks so beautiful in " He said with a crude grin as he kicked his foot out of the head, and continued walking till he was out of sight.
((pretty much, he cannot use any elements at all, and in return his vampire ability/skills are better by one rank. As for how he gained them, he turned into a vampire through other means rather then being turned, like dracula. So stronger vamp skills, zero element skills))

RPC Name: Zane Hajime
Rank: Adept
Talent Description: Zane can copy and use skills from another person without having to transform into them and look like them. Zane can retain his normal apearance and still perform other skills.
Talent Weakness: Without transforming, Zane has to use double the amount of energy to perform an energy base skill rather than the normal 1.5
How did the character get this talent?: Always being lazy and trying to make things as easy as possible, Zane doesn't need to take the appearance of someone to perform their skills and mimic them.
Sample: As Zane and July shook hands with each other, Zane grinned as he managed to take on the skills that she contained. Zane and July were both Tricksters, and July was just an ordinary human, but she did have the Earth Element while Zane had the water element. As July began explaining to him how the skills of a shapeshifter work, Zane shook his head at one portion of her explanation. According to July, Zane needed to look like her in order to fully mimic her and her skills. Always wanting to cut out that extra step, Zane slammed his palm unto the ground, levitating a shield of rock in front of him as he just copied July's element. Grinning, and panting at the same time, Zane had just used double the energy to perform the skill.

RPC Name: Jasper Cintere Rank: Novice [Going through Adept test] Talent Description: Zettai Makken! [Nightmare Fist]: In order to use Zettai Maken, you have to control all of the chi in your body and focus it into one point. When one uses it, it causes a fearful effect that scares enemies and forces them to surrender. However, in order to succeed, the user must focus a lot and believe that they will definitely win. Even the least doubt ruins the technique and fails. Thus, a successful Zettai Maken guarantees victory and winning without even fighting is a great strategy. The user may literally create any illusion to trick the enemy. Talent Weakness: Since Jasper has focused all of his power onto the freaky mind powers of Zettai Makken, he has chosen not to learn any fighting styles. How did the character get this talent?: When he signed up to be a Paladin, he saw a Arcanist who had been covered in a blue aura. The mage shot his palm forward and sent out a an image of a Lycan eating his wife. A few days later Jasper appraoched the mans door and asked to learn the secrets of Zettai Makken. Sample: Jasper stood there facing that gaunt looking man. He knew he was not strong enough to kill this man, not even close. But the man looked like a fighter; not just your ordinary fight. He is a Berzerker Draconian. Jasper then remembered Zettai Makken, if only he could gather enough energy to use it but he knew once the man saw the aura, he would charge at him. So Jasper decided to try and trick the man. Jasper grabbed 4 knives from his belt and threw them at the man, then a wind tunnel began to form around the two and the knives and the man would be seen being pushed forward. Jasper took the chance to hurry up and to it. He took a deep breath and a blue aura surrounded him, he began to make the aura form into a ball. He shot the ball forward and it transformed into the man Fenrir in his full transformation. The man seemed as if he were petrified. Jasper walked through the illusion and took out his sword and stabbed the man through the heart.

RPC Name: Rein Rois
Rank: Trainee
Talent Description: Allows Rein to cognatively perform any and all siren songs that she knows through humming--mouth closed, obviously. (This means, absent-mindedly humming a tune isn't a siren song and doesn't require energy.)
Talent Weakness: Each song will require double the energy to actually work, otherwise it is just another tune she is humming.
How did the character get this talent?: From years of of keeping silent and a few run-ins with people who knew what she was and wanted to hurt her. She developed this over the course of a few years as a way to aid herself should she be gagged and unable to sing her songs verbally.
Sample: Rein awoke in a dark, damp room, immediately becoming aware that she was bound and gagged. She also felt that her wings had been soaked in water and, in addition, were covered in a wet cloth to keep them from drying out. Her vision finally focusing, she saw quite a few people in the room of varous races. Seeing their clothing and the tools they kept around, she was disposed to think that they were hunters. Her eyes must have shown panic as the people laughed and grinned at her. Of course, she looked like a scared little teenager and in all truthfulness, she was terrified, but she had a trick up her sleeve she doubt they would have ever seen--or heard--from another of her kind. Though she was gagged, Rein began to hum a song, a sweet tune to be sure. No one was alarmed at first...until a few noticing the others drift off to sleep. But it was too late. The quiet hum was lulling them all to sleep. Then they were out. She used feather armor now to harden her wings and she grew them out as big as possible, ripping her restraints and freeing her. She ungagged herself and stepped lightly over the sleeping bodies and out of the hideout.

sine: so let me get this straight. You can perform siren songs through humming, but these songs will cost you double energy?
