Thinking of a new fel essence and soul possibility but they're still rolling in my head.
@u@
On a side note, got Sherris's history 67% complete and Noa's 23%.

I'm having trouble understanding some of his abilities. If I'm correct, the Raevan's most obvious ability would be that of nullifying magnetic fields by simply being around them or feeding from them (which could feasibly be the same thing like how Riv or Vyn feeds just from absorption). Though I suppose if he absorbs magnetic fields, thus nullifying them, he could then become a magnet himself and have the ability to move objects and such.
So I guess I have no actual qualms for two of his powers, but the bond one is not settling right with me. It doesn't feel like it fits with the actual nature of his essence. You make it sound like his emotions alone are what would attract or repel people. I think he could already do that in the physical sense as he's become a magnet due to the amounts he feeds on. Because people have like iron and such in their blood that he could use to attract to him or repel. But you might want to also consider this one of those powers that grow as the Raevan does. So you could use the emotion thing in combo with it then, but on a much weaker and sporatic scale?
I don't even know if what I'm writing makes sense anymore hon. I'm sorry! But hey, I like your miasma too! If you wanted, you could play around with it and make it one of those curing miasmas instead. You know cause like some miasma has been known to cause illness and death? So one that didn't would be interesting too.

Yea. The bonding one has been bothering me as well.
I figured perhaps instead of emotions the attractions would depend on whether or not he has fed for the day.
And mostly I was just thinking of Jezabroux being drawn towards the Raevan almost like moths to fire. But yea, I'll take that one down and work on it some more.
I was thinking that the Frei would mostly have a nulmagnetic field that only becomes charged if he feeds on a certain polar charge more than he needs to, thus accidentally 'flipping' his natural magnetic field to that charge.
So normally he'd shut down electronic but time to time he might have a paperclip hanging off his cheek or something.
I could do something like that. Aromatic miasma that cures diseases.
Not like cancer but small things... like... nervous disorders. : D
Thanks Ebs!!!

Well I was mostly saying for the miasma to being healing instead of illness inducing as miasmas tend to be sometimes. But either way, I would like to see how much more you can work them both, the nulmag and the miasma. Good luck!

Koco Pelli [Fel Essence] Quote: Nulmagnetic Lodestone
A lodestone is any naturally magnetized piece of mineral magnetite. They are naturally occurring magnets, and attract pieces of iron. Lodestones are magnetized by the strong magnetic fields surround lightning bolts.
This lodestone however, when struck by lightning bolts developed a magnetic field that was able to neutralize the magnetic fields of other lodestones, magnets and metals.
When electrical equipment utilizing magnetic forces are placed within the vicinity of this lodestone, they are unable to function. Magnets also lose their magnetic properties.
It is believed that the Nulmagnetic lodestone is a byproduct of the Black Lightning.
I popped in here like I said I would, my lovely ^^
Above was an area that I got slightly confused on due to wording and grammar
I just needs to be smoothed out a little and it'll move and flow much better =)
Here's how I edited it though you may do with it what you will, in case I got the wrong take or something. ^^Quote: Nulmagnetic Lodestone

Sent Jezabroux in for the first round of LAB 305's 3 Raevan rehoming event.
Next Thursday we will find out if he made it or not.

I'm only confused because for me, even if something is alluring to me, if it reeks I'll stay away from it...calming or otherwise...I wouldn't be around it long enough for the stench to become better :X
Perhaps it can be a non-stinky miasma so it's not -such- a contradiction? Or specifically the contradiction is that this specific miasma is both calming and smells nice?
And I simply love the poison dart frog because it is cute and versatile and I think it would work well with the miasma as well as add a nice color palette.

HEYYYYY BABEH. Glad to see your quest back open. Lemme see if I can offer any b*h!crits for ya. 8D <3
ESSENCE;;
HUR HUR. I LIKE YOUR ESSENCE DESCRIPTION. HUR HUR HUR ;D /shot/ <3
SOUL;;
Ooo. I like the cactus that you seem to have finally settled on (=P). The flower is especially beautiful and those colors will create a good contrast on the colors of the miasma. 8D I like the hint of reds and yellows in the petals.
RAEVAN;;
I like his name! It sounds awesome and it applies to his fel essence and overall self. :]
"This ability can change one's scent into one that is pleasing to any subject, and as such it is also an empathic faculty, although the scent will be released at will in his later stages."
This has some purple prose I think. A lot. Cuz I'm having to think really hard at what you mean. Simplify it downnnn. You have good ideas, we don't need all the extra s**t to know you're smart. We can figure that out by talking to you. :] <3 But seriously - simmer it down to the basis and explain a little better. I don't know if your talking about his scent changing or if he's changing other peoples scent. >x>
With Asklepios giving off emotionally effected scents, I approve. 8D But you may want to narrow down all the paragraphs describing it. We got that he is giving off emotionally-affected smells to attract or dis-spell people to/from him. So there's a lot there that is mostly just repetition.
I love the supersmell ability. ;D He's going to be the LAB's supa tracker. And it could make for some funny interesting times. 8D
I like his personality and how part of it connects to his soul. 8D
I really like and approve of his feeding habits
Asklepios looks feral and hawt. Jus saying. ;D

[The Raeven] RAEVAN DAMNIT!!!1!!!!1!! /dies. Sorry. Pet peeve. Raevan #1 Name : Asklepios
Possibly means "cut up" in Greek. Asklepios (Aesculapius to the Romans) was the god of healing and medicine in Greek mythology. Nice name. I studied History of Medicine so I appreciate the fact he's named after a god of healing/temple of healing.
Fel Essence : Therapeutic Miasma I love this fel essence like woah.. @___@ <33 I think it's really original and I'm glad you're finally using it and making the most of out it.
Soul : Cactus Your soul is pretty good. I think it'll give Kyou something interesting to work with. Plant souls are always welcomed by me and although some will always argue that cactus/venus flytraps are overdone in concepts... They're cool and so far untouched in LAB - so no qualms here. :D
Gender : Male
Abilities :
Aromatherapy/Miasma&Noxious Odor Emission[passive/active]
xxxxxxxxxxAsklepios has the ability to release a mellifluous Wtf does this word even mean? I: I have never heard it in my life and I'm pretty sure that without a dictionary most people wouldn't be able to define it. Because of that I'd suggest you cut it out or change it to a more commonly known word cause right now it looks as though you're trying to hard to make smelling nice sound clever. >>"aroma from the body as a mode of seduction or attraction. This ability can change one's scent into one that is pleasing to any subject, and as such it is also an empathic faculty, although the scent will be released at will in his later stages. Similarly your way of wording here is kinda weird. It's like you're trying too hard to be sophisticated and it ends up sounding either confusing or forced. Simplifying it down so that everyone understands, with ease, what you want to say would seriously help you. You've got an original idea and the beauty of it is that it doesn't need to be complicated to work. That's where you went wrong with your nul-magnetic lodestone. You tried to be complex to be creative when really if you just run with your simple but interesting ideas you'll be much better off. (:
The scent he gives off is different for each person. Jezabroux might smell chamomile while another person might find themselves smelling mint. As he grows the ability will be similar to how perfumes are made. There will be a top note, middle note and base note. The fragrances will become more complicated and the effects of the smells will be compounded to provide a broader healing effect. This paragraph is much better. I didn't have to reread anything to try and decode what you were saying and although it's just a simple twist within his power - it's interesting and provides a whole host of RPing opportunities. c: I take it the 'healing effect' would be like... advanced aromatherapy?
Sporadically, Asklepios's emotions can affect the scent he gives off. If he has been badly frightened then he might give off the smell of a passion flower, a plant commonly used in aromatherapy as a tranquiler not sure... but isn't this meant to be tranquilliser? >>" and hypotensive sedative. On the flip side, when terrified, aggravated or under a similar mood Asklepios secretes something that'll keep individuals away. <-- These two chunks (originally paragrahs) are talking about basically the same thing. The latter one is a little wordy and repeats itself slightly. I would suggest you splice them together and cut it down so that it's simple and effective at describing what happens. --> Asklepios will have the ability to release a foul odor at when he is nervous or feels that he's being threatened. This is will be one that is subconsciously and will only work when experiencing a particularly strong flash of a 'bad' emotion. The odor is released physically, but changes based on which odor the subject will find most offensive. As he gets older, he'll be able to use this as an active skill both offensively and defensively.
Asklepios will be able to exude toxic gases at will, through the skin and by exhalation. This gas or miasma is usually a highly potent version of carbon monoxide or some other poisonous gas. The gas generated could range from nerve gas and laughing gas to highly-concentrated chlorine and mustard gas. However, Asklepios can only use this ability if he has fed on a particularly concentrated source of air earlier and it leaves him feeling sick and tired as well. This skill makes me slightly uneasy since those chemicals are really serious stuff. If he used them on people he could kill or at the very least seriously injure people. I know Riv has poisons and manyof the raevans could hurt people... But I know I am personally against more raevans becoming evil and killing people. ><" Maybe if it's a skill that he can gain later during his frei time or at sigel it would be cool. I kinda like the idea of him going to swim in a chlorinated pool and then accidentally hurting someone.. But this skill would have to be used sparingly to avoid him ending up as the increasingly clichéd good guy gone bad.
Superhuman Smell or Supersmell [passive]
xxxxxxxxxxAsklepios can smell odors with more clarity and range than your average human and Raevan. Even to the point of distinguishing subjects by their scents; he can track subjects and distinguish between simultaneously-occurring smells ; however, he is also involuntarily sensitive to loud or strong smells, aromatic attacks and nasal-based allergens. Sounds pretty good to me. = u =b I can imagine him having to wear a mask in the summer when the pollen count is high 'cause otherwise he'd be a sneezing wreck.
Personality : Contrary to his very... impressive appearance, Asklepios will be shy. The blossoms that come from an Echinopsis genus cacti rarely last for a long time, usually blooming at night and dying by sunrise, these flowers are said to be 'shy' due to the short duration of their lives. Nice - links to souls really makes me happy. C:
In that aspect, Asklepios will be very introverted, quiet and resigned to few words. Easily overwhelmed in any type of social setting, he'll be very succinct in speech and easily flustered when approached by the opposite sex. Frustrated by his inability to communicate with others in the way he desires, he'll often avoid social outings all together to save himself the irritation and frustration in advance. MERRRR. This kinda of avoidance of social settings can pose a big problem when when by some judges. If they're so socially withdraw how the jaffacake are you meant to RP with him? >O>" Being shy is ok... But he can't be a recluse and avoid contact with people.
Because of how challenging it is for him to make friends, he'll be very protective of them. Furthermore, Asklepios is by nature a jealous individual so when his friend(s) talk of another friend he'll be inclined to even less words and his comments will display open hostility towards the subject. Nevertheless, Asklepios would gladly offer a shoulder of comfort to whoever seeks it. I kinda like the jealousy aspect. Reminiscent of a cactus' prickles? 8D I do wish for another paragraph or two on his personality though. I know lots of the personality building comes after you get him... But even so, being able to see the skeleton of a rounded character does severely help you imagine him being played and I would assume it would raise your chances of getting him. ( especially since currently he has a longer pwer section than personality - I would place personality of greater importance than powers.. >>" )
Feeding :
[1]Fel Feeding
xxxxxxxxxxAsklepios would essentially be a walking air filter. A miasma was classified by having a foul smell composed of decaying matter, so for Asklepios to feed all he would have to do is breathe polluted air. The pollution can be both natural and man made. However, Asklepios does better when he feeds on natural pollutants. Good. I like it. <:
[2]Photosynthesis
xxxxxxxxxxAsklepios can convert light energy to chemical energy and store it in the bonds of sugar. However, since he has the soul of a cactus he's prone to sun burns and prefers indirect sunlight. Thus, it is an ineffective method of feeding regularly, it is however a great way for him to 'snack' until he can make the next feeding when he's enduring prolonged periods between fel feedings. Onomnomnom. Sunlight as a backup is good. = u =b
Appearance:
Just a reference of how I imagined his hair and face. Somewhat feminine yet clearly masculine from the sharp nose and chin.
[Drawn Reference 1]
And I actually found a very good drawn image of what his hair would look like. Since I can't draw corn rows or whatever it's called. XD
[Predrawn Hair Corn Row Reference]
Asklepios's hair isn't like that, I just wanted to get a reference for how the corn row thing went. Lulz.
And for clothes, Kyoupi has full reign. 8D
His hair is badass. But unless you get a full custom idk if Kyou will do it like that. (I know Kyou has no intention of doing a full custom any time soon - if ever.) It could be a cool inspiration for her though. You never know? ;D
