Upgrade Requirements and Requests: Unique Art

This thread is for tracking any growths for Natsu art! If you acquired a slot from her and are ready for a character to growth, you will need to post here—even if you already have the art! This is just to keep track of who grew when! You might have ordered all of your art up front, or you might be posting because you have just reached out to her for the growth art, but everyone will need to post here as well as contact her with growth details if they haven't already!

This thread is for unique Natsu art; if you won templated art and are posting for growth, please use this thread! The form you can fill out to grow a character is in the second post, but before you post please make sure you are familiar with the rules for posting:

Growing a Character:

Most characters are guaranteed three stages of art; you will be warned up front if you receive a character guaranteed only one stage of art! Presently, youma can only receive on stage of art, but all Senshi, Negaverse Agents, Knights, and Mauvians are eligible for three stages of art provided the requirements are all met. Characters can acquire a rare, fourth stage, but this is not guaranteed and does not have the same requirements other stages have. There are some rules to keep in mind while posting for growth—most notably that all your roleplay requirements are finished and that you have waited the appropriate amount of time between posting for growth between each stage. To grow a character, a period of time must have passed and you must hit a minimum number of roleplay requirements. For a roleplay to count for growth, the character you wish to grow must contribute at least 500 words!

The Types of Roleplays

There are three different types of roleplay:

  • Battle - A Battle roleplay is a roleplay that occurs between two different players and features powered characters. Only combat between two powered characters can be counted as a battle, and this usually means that they must be engaged in a physical or magical battle. These battles can either be for opposing faction members, or allies sparring. Once per growth stage, two characters can team up against a youma, however only one disposable youma battle is applicable towards growth. Sometimes the shop or players will run events that use a superpowered youma as a big boss--this is usually exempt from the 'one youma battle per growth stage' because the youma is much stronger than the average disposable. Youma that exist in the shop and are arted characters with their own profile do not count towards the 'one disposable youma' battle--they are more powerful than the average youma and count as a normal battle! To count for growth requirements, a character must have at least 500 words posted in the roleplay.

  • Regular. A Regular roleplay is a roleplay that occurs between two different players. This can be either civilian or powered roleplay, but generally means that a battle did not occur or there was no physical fighting. Each character must have at least 500 words in the roleplay for it to be applicable as a growth requirement.

  • Solo. A Solo is a roleplay written by one person; it will usually only feature their characters, though multiple characters of theirs may appear in one solo, or they may puppet another player's character (with permission). A solo must be 500 words to count for requirements. If multiple characters are being played, each must have 500 words for it to count as a requirement. Solo word requirements are stackable! This means that you don't have to write many different solos, but if you write a single solo featuring only one character that has 1000 words, it would count for two solos. If you are writing a solo featuring two of your characters, each must have at least 500 words to count for a solo. Writing 800 words for one character and 200 for another means that only one of them would get the solo requirement filled.


A roleplay must be finished for it to be applicable for growth; this means you must have an obvious exit or end, either by labeling the RP as finished in the title, the last post, or by having a convincing lead out/final post. Because ORPs can sometimes stay open for a while and never have a concrete close, as long as you post 500 words in an ORP and have a clear exit for your character, these can be used towards requirements, too!


Substituting Requirements

Requirements are ranked in order of importance of growth: Battles, Regulars, and then finally solos. In all cases, you can always swap down. This means, if you have extra battles completed, you can fill your requirement for regulars with them. If you have extra battles or regulars, you can use them to cover three solo requirements. You cannot swap up. Three solos cannot be used to replace Regulars or Battles, and Regulars cannot replace Battles. You must complete the minimum of Battles for each stage.

In addition to substituting Regulars or Solos with Battles, you can also use growth items!

User Image


Growth items are meant to substitute the requirement without you needing to do the roleplay!

Star Candies - can replace one Solo
Luna-Ps - can replace one Regular
Henshin Pens - can replace one Battle

Growth items can be be won from games, contests, or raffles, and can be purchased with Crown Tokens. Please keep a clear record of where you won your Growth Item! Please remember that even though you can save up Growth Items, they should only account for up to 1/3rd of your Growth Requirements. They are meant to help you reach requirements, but your character must still be roleplayed to grow!


The Stages: Sesnshi, Knights, Negaverse Agents

  • To earn first stage (Basic Senshi, Pages, Lieutenants)
    Requirements: There are no requirements to earn first stage! This is simply the stage your civilian will first power up into.

  • To earn second stage (Super Senshi, Squires, Captains)
    Requirements: 8 SOLOS AND 13 RPs (AT LEAST 5 OF THE 13 RPS MUST BE BATTLES) -- (AND/OR ITEM EQUIVALENT) ; AT LEAST ONE MONTH MUST PASS BETWEEN ICLY AWAKENING AT FIRST STAGE AND POSTING FOR SECOND STAGE
    Cooldown: You must have had your character at basic stage for at least one month before they can be posted to grow to second stage! At least one month must have passed between when you first received their powered art and when they ICly awakened, so please keep that in mind when posting!

  • To earn third stage (Eternal Senshi, Knights, Generals)
    Requirements: 12 SOLOS AND 18 RPs (AT LEAST 6 OF THE 18 ROLEPLAYS MUST BE BATTLES) -- (AND/OR ITEM EQUIVALENT)
    Cooldown: You must have had your character at second stage for at least three months before they can be posted to grow to third stage! At least three months must have passed between when you first received the powered art of their second stage and when they ICly grew, so please keep that in mind when posting!


The Stages: Guardian Cats

  • To earn first stage (Mauvian/Cat form only)
    Requirements: There are no requirements at this stage; when you get your Guardian Cat, this is the first form they will have. They will not be able to access other forms until they hit requirements!

  • To earn second stage (Humanoid Mauvian form only)
    Requirements: 12 SOLOS AND 18 RPs (AT LEAST 6 OF THE 18 ROLEPLAYS MUST BE BATTLES) -- (AND/OR ITEM EQUIVALENT)
    Cooldown: You must have had your Guardian Cat's art and had them in play for three months before you can post them for growth to access their humanoid art stage! Though the humanoid Mauvian art is usually done at the same time the cat Mauvain art is done, you must meet these requirements for the cat to unlock the humanoid form.

  • To earn third stage (Senshi Mauvian form only)
    Requirements: This information is a little more specific than other requirements; because of this, there is a whole section dedicated to explaining it over in the Mauvian Information thread!
    Cooldown: Please see the Mauvian Information thread for this!

The Form:

To grow your character, you will need to use the following form! Please make sure to indicate if you are using any growth items or substituting any requirements!

[u][b]FORM[/b][/u]

[b]Character:[/b] Character's name
[b]Using:[/b] Items? Roleplays? Please include a link to all requirements and remember to let us know where you have substituted requirements! Remember, you can only substitute [i]down[/i]; you must do all of your battles, but a battle can replace a regular, and regulars and battles can replace [i]three[/i] solos.
[b]Upgrade to:[/b] What rank/stage are they growing to?



PLEASE REMEMBER:

Natsube's RL is incredibly busy but she wants to make sure that characters waiting on growth aren't held in limbo! Because of this, players who have posted for growth and have not received art from Natsu within three months are eligible for free alt-powered templated art.

Natsu is still willing to do the art you paid for, but this is just to ensure characters ready to move on to the next stage ICly can!

If you have questions or have been waiting on art for an extended period of time, please feel free to PM the shop mule, In the Name of the Mule, and we will be more than happy to work things out!

Any specific requests? Keep her pose something sultry (maybe moar cleavage, lolololol). I would like her collar to be a full cape in the eternal stage, so make it something in between in this stage. Any other uniform changes are up to you, because I know they'll be awesome.

[EDIT] Jan. 30th, 2010: I forgot, can senshi have weapons in the super stage? If so, a spear would be a nice touch.

Character: Tanzanite

Using: Stories

Upgrade to: Captain

Any specific requests? The major thing has already been told to Natsu.

Other random things that you can use or not, just adding them in here to give you more to work with:

-Tanz is tall. I'd love her art to reflect that proportions-wise.

-She usually wears a thin choker or some kind of necklace that covers the scar on her throat left by her fight with Iris. Probably something simple like http://estylissimo.deviantart.com/art/Gothic-Chocker-16-90918315 but without any rose or beads, just a lace choker. Feel free to leave this out if it looks weird.

-I'd love to see her hair down and looking wild. Maybe with some feathers braided in or something (like, greens or blues for interesting color contrast maybe?). I don't know. Do whatever is fun. If drawing her hair down would be too insanely time consuming, I am totally okay with having it up. You can shorten it or literally do whatever.

-Expression would be sort of an evil grin? Brows drawn down, evil smirk. Blah blah blah.

-I really love the simplicity of her current uniform, so it could stay pretty much the same, just maybe with some embellishment and such.

-I LOVE HER HEELS. GOD I LOVE HER ******** HEELS AND THEIR ABILITY TO IMPALE PEOPLE. Feel free to change the shoe to something else or whatever, but I love her heels.
