You have more to say on your in-depth definitions of Faeries by chance?
We are all ears if you are willing to share more info here, Duhuna_Shy would need to know as well, more ears open the better.

Yes well I hope you people do not mind a wall of text~

Fae Types

Ok first a Fae, or a True Fairy to be exact do not encompass the pixie and sprite archetype of fairy. That is just a note though. Anyways Fairies are not born they are formed randomly, each fairy embodies an element of nature be it physical or metaphysical like for example one Fae could embody the element of cold where the next one could embody the element of ice. And even with this there can be several fairies that embody the same element but generally not in the same 100 miles, GENERALLY is the key word.

To round out that segment Fairies are the embodiment of nature be it physical like earth or metaphysical like heat, and there is typically only one of that type of fairy in 100 miles of the forming location, although this is not always true.

Fae Ranks

Fairies have a ranking system, this system is based on their overall power and learning potential. The higher the rank the more power they contain and the more they can learn before having to forget. Likewise the higher they rank the more their appearance changes mainly how 'aged' they look and their wings.
The fairy ranks and what they effect are the following.

Rank 1) Fairy - Age Appearance: 10 - Respawn Side Effect: Complete deletion of memory
This is the rank all fairies start as, generally they are not very smart, down to the point where they do not know that they can not breath underwater even after attempting for the 100th time. Nor is their magical reserves very large, only able to hold the weakest of illusions for a few minutes at most, and even then an observant person could see right through it. People would count this rank as pests and nothing more, kinda like racoon's without the chance of rabies.

Rank 2) Lesser Fairy - Age Appearance: 10 - Respawn Side Effect: Unable to remember the last 10 minutes before their death
This is rank most fairies in the world reside at. Smart enough to learn something is painful after a few attempts at it and rather creative with pranks although they do not understand that humans aren't as durable or can't respawn like they can. Their skill in illusions vary, from very good to piss poor. But their magical reserves are that akin to a hedge witch [the normal kind, not the pulla kind] or possible lesser normal witches. Pests that humans of the past rather enjoyed hunting to make examples of them, but also not wanting to get caught in their illusions else the human could wind up lost in the woods till death.

Rank 3) Greater Fairy - Age Appearance: 11-12 - Respawn Side Effect: Unable to remember the last 5 minutes before their death
This is the first rank where they can with practice be mistaken for human children, and the first rank that they can hide their normal fairy wings [see the fairy wing item on Gaiaonline for an example]. Their magical reserves are that akin to a weak magical girl although they still specialize in illusions, most fae start to dabble in elemental magic at this rank, Also there is a low chance that they may develop power. This power is unique to them and can be anything underneath the sun, it will also not effect what type of fairy they are. As an example Manah is a Blood Fairy but her power is control over metal. At this rank they can jump to any higher rank with luck, be it good or bad. Their mental state fits to their appearance. Fae's of this rank sometimes go to human schools if they wish to learn further, but generally they do not.

Rank 4) Great Fairy - Age Appearance: 11-13 - Respawn Side Effect: Unable to remember the last 5 minutes before their death, 50% Chance to remember everything
At this stage is when their wings change from the typical fairy appearance to either their elemental appearance or something that fits their power, depending on which one is more powerful at the time. How the wings change vary from Fairy to Fairy though. It could be just a plain change of shape or could completely change their appearance and composition. Likewise their magical reserves are the same as a normal magical girl's, although it is generally set towards a certain set of skills that would be unhelpful in a magical girl life style.


Any questions so far before I get to the last two ranks and how a fairy dies?

Why is this seeming so interesting?

Any questions so far before I get to the last two ranks and how a fairy dies?

Why is this seeming so interesting?
The text is accepted.

I dunno honestly, it is to me and I guess because its just a new branch of magical beings makes it interesting. Just know that this is BASIC info and can be tweaked some to fit pretty much any universe. But enough of that, onto the last of the important info!

Rank 4) Royal Fairy - Age Appearance: 13-14 - Respawn Side Effect: Unable to remember last 3 minutes before death, 75% chance to remember everything
This rank of fairy has even more learning potential and magical potential then the last, typically at this rank they enter the Winter/Summer Court system and are never seen again in the mortal world but this is not always the case. Fairies at this stage if they decide to or have already been learning the process can be completely mistaken for humans, but occasionally slip up and have uncontrolled bursts of magic. In other words, they can act human for the most part but sometimes do something that is completely not human like freezing something in surprise or walking in the air.

Rank 5) Queen Fairy - Age Appearance: 14-16 typically 14 - Respawn Side Effect: Occasionally longer respawn time frames
This is the final rank of True Fairies and is basically limitless in magical potential and learning potential, although learning and actually using their knowlage is two different things. At this stage in their life this rank of fairy usually goes into one of two areas: Living with Humans or Living with Fairies. A Q rank fairy that lives with humans typically live alone and on the edge of cities, often being the 'new girl' in any school with an odd sense of human, really the 'odd girl' that exists in every school. Where the one that lives with fairies are in the Winter/Summer Court system, its as easy to that. Now a note is that unless a fairy goes through every rank in a normal fashion, which can take upwards of 1000 years and instead jump ranks, they run the risk of going insane or worse. The more ranks a fairy jumps the more likely they are to go insane.
It is not easy for a fairy to jump ranks though, and generally can only happen with traumatic events or HEAVY training in their elements. If the cause of their jump is a traumatic instance that involved their element in some distinct fashion it could result in them jumping straight to Queen rank.

Fairy Life and Death
An important note about this stage is fairies are just as durable as humans, although the high ranks [R and Q] are as durable as humans who have been in a few wars and fights. But they are just as easy to kill too. Sadly it is very hard to REALLY kill a fairy. For when a fairy dies they do not leave a body, nor do they bleed if it was a killing blow. Instead they explode in colorful sparks of light, typically red and blue, but sometimes green and other colors if their elemental nature is more dominate. This is called a 'pop' for they have basically popped like a balloon. Roughly 5-10 minutes later they will reform at the nearest 'safe' source of their element. Safe meaning that they will not be in risk of death right as they reform. a Fairy reforming reforms in perfect condition, this includes their virginity, hair length and even smell of their breath. They do not have a choice about their physical state except if they had scars in their last lifespan. That is the only thing they can choose to keep or not.
A Fairy will reform at the closest source of their element within a 10 mile range of their death as long as it is deemed safe by some unknown process [I more just don't want to explain it] so it is possible to plan where they will respawn or trick a fairy to respawn in a specific location. There is a way to kill a fairy permanently though albeit its tricky. You would have to remove every source of that element within 10 miles of its respawn range for the time period of their respawn time, but because of how loose their elements can be this could be nigh impossible. As an example Manah's element is Blood, and blood is in everything even if its a vague sense of blood. Tree's sap is considered blood as a prime example. This makes a fairy effectively impossible to kill

Starwolf

So what's this guild about then? I haven't had time to poke about it much... so I do not know... all I know is I was invited and I accepted the request...invite... whatchacallit....

~Starwolf~

Pleased to see you as well, Starwolf.

You may ask Captain Arcealleux or Duhuna_Shy for more info on the group.
Recruitment and gathering viable candidates has slowed down for now, I'll admit, but that's okay because at the moment we've yet to see promising contractees lately.

Manah Shadowsong

I guess no more questions *nod* ummm....is all of this ok?

Get a profile ready, then prepare 5 Witch Profiles accordingly and we ought to be good, I'd say.

*blink, tilts head* I can understand my profile for my OC...but...5 Witch Profiles? I only had an idea for One Witch, not Five....

Actually its just a bonus, just optional but might not necessarily be a must-do in itself.
Does it make sense that it has potential to start up a contest of sorts? redface

yea it makes sense, although it may take me a bit to make my profiles, more so because the only picture I can find that is close to how Manah would appear in this series is a picture of Alma Wade, and the outfit while good....well honestly its the right color as she would wear but the hair and eyes are the wrong color and all
On top of that its terribly hard to find Tekkit items that have long sleeves that cover the hands while still being considered normal clothing like a jacket or such, all that I find are either like bright green or oversized and the like

Believe it or not, there's a reason why I'd go with a contest for 5 Witch profiles for every 1 Puella Magi, actually.
It'd be a surefire way to kickstart the main plots of the group up and running, and it may actually draw in a crowd of newcomers over to the group.

I'll...try, but don't be expecting the other 4 Witches to be all that impressive, I want to put alot of work into Bloodfae, the Witch of War.

As for what I meant, well its this picture, although keep in mind, the hair is the wrong color, likewise the eyes and the shoes are too blocky, but this IS Manah's general appearance

Manah Example

Fair enough.
I take it as Manah and the results to be bred from her will be the most lethal thing to craft by far at the moment, I see.
