Name: Madeline Dorsey Nickname: Mads Age: 19 Birthday: April 5 Sign: Aries Gemstone: Diamond Blood Type: B - Fav. Food: Those little patriotic rocket popsicles Hated Food: Peas School: None - Civ working for a theatre company. Hobbies: Sewing - Mads is a costume designer for the theatre company she works for. Thus, she spends a lot of time with her sewing machine and various fabrics. When she has time she also modifies her own clothes, as she really enjoys the feeling of wearing something she helped make. She learned her craft from her mom and wishes they had more time to work together again. Games - Mostly Mads is into handheld games. Things she can take with her and lose herself in on the bus to work or curl up under a heavy quilt at night and play for hours. Her favorite types of games are puzzles and simulator-type games with repetitive actions, because they're soothing. Virtues: Hard-working - No matter what you think of Mads, it is undeniable that she is a hardworking individual. She puts her all into her job and gladly works extra hours to get things done. She'll go above and beyond to make sure everything she does is the best quality it can possibly be, every time. Genuine - She strives to be sincere and honest in everything she does. She doesn't ever want someone to think that she was holding something back, or just putting on a face for them. Growing up openly gay meant that she encountered people who appeared to be friends, but were malicious behind her back. Mads never wants to do this to someone, she wants her thoughts and feelings to be upfront and clear. Flaws: Easily-stressed - Because she puts a lot of pressure on herself to always do the best she can do, Mads stresses out easily. When she feels like she's not succeeding in a task or taking it as far as it can go, she starts to stress about how to can improve or what she's doing wrong. This stress makes her into a bit of a chaotic tornado, and when she gets to this stage in her work it's best to step back and let her work it out herself. Loner - It was mostly Mads and her mom growing up, with no other family to speak of, so she's used to being alone. She greatly values her privacy and quiet time, and that can make it difficult for her to let people into her life and keep them there. She's particularly bad at keeping in contact with people, especially if the other person isn't making much of an effort either. In order for someone to truly become a part of her life they have to make an active effort to remind her that they're there and they want her attention. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION Eyes: Brown Hair: Caramel-colored, side-shave Face: Thin face. Tanned skin. Clothes: Something like this? Feel free to turn the black bow into something else or leave it out completely. Also if the teal doesn't look nice with her hair color feel free to change it to yellows or pinks.

Senshi: Sailor Rasalas, Senshi of Lions Challenge: Don't mess with the lioness. Fuku Colour: Main Color: Deep red Secondary Color: Black Fuku: WIPAttacks: These are your senshi's abilities, which will be used in battle. These abilities correspond to your senshi's element. Think of it as a "summary" of what your senshi can do in one word. Sailor Scout Attack: Rasalas Mighty Roar Rasalas calls out her attack and the image of a golden lion projects from her tiara. The lion roars loudly and stuns her target for a short period. Effect: Stuns target, makes it harder for them to move and attack. It's quite like being dizzy - you can still move, but it's harder to do so and more difficult to coordinate. Duration: 25 seconds, up to 2 times per battle Range: Target must be within 7 feet, only affects a single target Weakness: Greatly reduced duration for anyone of a higher level than her. Can be avoided with good enough sound blocking. Super Sailor Scout Attack: Rasalas Ferocious Roar Rasalas calls out her attack and the image of a golden lion projects from her tiara. The lion roars loudly and stuns her target for a short period. Effect: Stuns target, makes it harder for them to move and attack. Duration: 35 seconds, up to 3 times per battle Range: Target must be within 10 feet, only affects a single target Weakness: Greatly reduced duration for anyone of a higher level than her. Can be avoided with good enough sound blocking. Eternal Sailor Attack: Rasalas Gleaming Claws Rasalas calls out her attack and summons a golden ethereal lion that lunges at her opponents with its claws and gives the sensation of being scratched. Effect: Physical damage consistent with claws - NONLETHAL damage only. Duration: 30 seconds , up to 2 times per battle Range: Must be able to make physical contact with target. Weakness: Can be blocked/avoided by dodging.

Hey DHS! Mads's civ stuff looks great, so just some quick crits on her powered! I think the durations for her Basic and Super attacks are a bit long, and 25 and 35 seconds might be more fair for something that makes it more difficult to move/attack? Also, how much more difficult is it to do so? For her Eternal, I'm kind of concerned that she's basically summoning a weapon, which isn't allowed for Senshi? There are characters that have a weapon-y flavor, but it's usually as a medium for the actual magic (for instance, Penthe's casting gesture involves summoning an ethereal sword.) I think if the summoned claws were temporary somehow that would be fine -- as part of a casting gesture -- but a weapon she summons for herself to attack with is unfortunately not okay!

Regulus is the most similar to Rasalas's attack, but they all create some sort of weapon-like attack. most of them aren't even eternal attacks. Regulus, Sirius, Hercules, Serpentarius, Aeris

Regulus is the most similar to Rasalas's attack, but they all create some sort of weapon-like attack. most of them aren't even eternal attacks. Regulus, Sirius, Hercules, Serpentarius, AerisI understand you had another moderator look it over; however, all of those attacks were approved several years ago, and except for Regulus, they all appear to do what I described -- summon something for flavor as part of re attack, but do not create a weapon. Were Rasalas summoning ethereal lions to attack her foes, that would be acceptable, but for a large number of reasons I actually would not stamp Regulus's attacks today, which are the closest comparison, I'm sorry! Rules in the past were often looser, and have been tightened or clarified over time. To be more specific, the problem is not that it's an offense-oriented attack! Those are perfectly fine and acceptable. The problem is that she is giving herself a weapon to attack with that is directly, physically on her person. Serpentarius summons a snake to bite people, Hercules creates a gem and throws it, Sirius binds people, and Aeris creates spikes. As it stands, I cannot approve Rasalas creating a weapon that she, personally, uses to attack people. Were it done through another medium - ethereal lions, the sensation of claws and bites, what have you - that would be fine, however!
