No dear, it's not a typo. Instead of having 3 OTHER elements besides his main one like normal mages do (Main= Fire, Sub=1 Earth 2 Wind 3 Water) He'll only have his main and 2 OTHER elements (Main=Fire, Sub= 1 earth and 2 wind)
In other words, he's loosing two ranks of an element (E and D ranks) to gain two ranks of a weapon(B and A) (Mages can only learn up to C rank of a weapon). I think it's a good talent and it should be approved, as soon as he writes two paragraphs of an rp sample, not to mention he's ALSO sacrificing .5 percent of energy since normal mages have 2X the normal amount where he will have only 1.5X the normal amount

RPC Name: Kaelvir Tharan Rank: Trainee Bloodline & Class: Seer Mage (potentially) Talent Description: Though Kaelvir studied among the Archmages of Kusana city, he was also trained by his father to wield a blade. This mix of training has allowed Kael the ability to defend himself on a limited basis without the use of magic. However, because of his study of the blade, Kael could not devote himself to his studies of the arcane as fully as was necessary. (Kaelvir Tharan can learn up to A rank of 1 and only 1 swordstyle) Talent Weakness: He only has access to 2 of the elements aside from his main as opposed to 3, and has 1.5x the normal energy pool as opposed to the regular 2x. How did the character get this talent?:He was trained not only to channel The Source by the school of mages, but was also trained to use a blade by his father in order to protect himself when magic failed. Sample:
“Crane Catches Herring, Swallow Turn-Tail, Cat Crosses the Yard, Falcon's Pursuit... good, good, that will do for today Kael", Kalodred, Kaelvir's father, spoke smiling at his son as he lowered his practice sword. Smiling at his father, Kael grabbed the towel he had thrown aside to wipe the sweat from his brow. As hard as his father's training was, Kael had always found this time with his father to be far more rewarding than the hours of memorization practiced with the mages. Looking toward the gated fence, Kael was pleased to see that several young ladies had come to watch him practice, their excitement clear in the air as Kael's pale eyes passed over them. Turning towards the house Kael ran a hand over his still moist chest, feeling the contours of his well toned torso. The physical benefits were also far more rewarding than the hours spent bent over tomes. "Good, now let's see how you fare against an opponent", Kalodred said, drawing his own practice and attacking in a flash, hoping to catch his son off guard. Smiling, Kael lifted his blade behind his head, catching his father's sword and then spinning quickly to parry it aside, opening his father up for a counter-attack of his own. As Kael's blade came in to rap his father's waist, his father quickly spun out of the way of the attack and blocked his son's sword with his own, a smile spread wide across his face. "You should know better than to try to surprise me by now, Father, or did you happen to forget again?", Kaelvir said, sporting a rueful smile of his own. "I wonder, did you also happen to forget what they're teaching me at the University?", Kael said, his grin becoming suddenly more mischievous. Channeling The Source, Kael molded the flows of energy to wrap themselves around his father's weapon. Then with a thought and the application of the arcane energies he was tapping, Kael pushed his father's weapon out to the side, opening his torso up for attack. Smiling, Kael calmly placed the tip of his practice blade on the center of his father's sternum. "I win."
(Is good? Oh, and the spell he used was Ascendare)

RPC Name: Zaiaku Morimoto Rank: Trainee Bloodline & Class: Anima / Sword Master Talent Description: Master Swordsmenship Specialist Since the time Zaiaku was capable of holding a sword, he was raised by his father who was an expert swordsmen. Because his kind was being hunted as monstrosities, as well as his mysterious past, his "father" worked him daily in rigorous training in the ways of the sword. With brutal exercises that focused on all attributes of being a swordsmen, Zaiaku became a powerful swordsman at a young age, and still getting stronger. Through training, his weapon techniques are stronger +1 in rank. He is capable of learning weapon styles involving blades quicker -2 posts. His reflex, as well as parrying and blocking, has become much better then other sword masters (+1). And the last thing he was taught was how to manipulate his energy to benefit his swordsmenship. Thus, alloqing him more control over his energy and perform unique skills (customs).
Talent Weakness: As a result of the constant training dedicated to the ways of the blade, Zaiaku's attention to his elemental energy is not as great, making it only capable of reaching up to C rank skills. In addition, he struggles with learning his elemental techniques, which he doesn't recieve a learning bonus from either teacher or field and takes an additional +1 to learn them. Also, as being trained only with bladed weaponry, Zaiaku cannot use any weapons that are not bladed, as he has no experience in it. This includes gauntlets, greaves, shields, staffs.
How did the character get this talent?: Since the time Zaiaku was capable of holding a sword, he was raised by his father who was an expert swordsmen. Because his kind was being hunted as monstrosities, as well as his mysterious past, his "father" worked him daily in rigorous training in the ways of the sword. With brutal exercises that focused on all attributes of being a swordsmen, Zaiaku became a powerful swordsman at a young age, and still getting stronger. He was trained in order to survive, as others hated his kind which eventually resulted in only two of his kind to be remaining.
Sample: Zaiaku stood in the middle of the field, being surrounded by a bunch of rouges. His silver hair was put in a style back. Getting onto a stance, a hand resting on the hilt, he waited for the group to make a move. Three of them ran in, blades raised yelling for whatever reason. Zaiaku's sharp golden eyes remained focused, his breathing relaxed. As the three closed in, they surround the lone Anima triangle style and closed for the attack. Waiting for the right moment, once within a close range Zaiaku moved forward, bringing his unsheathed sword upwards to catch the man in front's sword, pushing into his body to force him to back up to avoid the other two blades while moving the man's own sword overhead. Twisting the blade inward, the hilt drove right into the man's nose, breaking it and knocking him down clutching it as the other two ran at him.
The one at the right slashed at his hip, while the one on the left aimed for his left shoulder. A faint smile crossed Zaiaku's lip as he turned slightly to the right, his blade slapping on top of the others and then spun away from the man on the right. His sword riding along the other and from the momentum of the spin, sliced through the man's head cutting it in half while finishing the spin the sword caught the other man's sword. Keeping the other sword from coming down, Zaiaku kicked the man in the gut, making him double over while Zaiaku brought the sword up, bringing the tip of the blade down into his back, the blade breaching his chest. Pulling the sword out, he spun it around in his hand making the point face towards him and thrusted between his arm and hip, the blade impaling the man with the broken nose. Three dead, seven to go
((No need to make a collosal sample when all this does is enhance my sword stuff and such. And to clarify weakness, I can only learn up to C rank earth skills. I recieve no learning bonuses when learning them, and they require one post more when learning them. Also, I cannot use any non blade weapon styles. Meaning the ones above and any more in the future. If you want I can throw in no machinery, though I dont think I can anyways, but yeah.))

RPC Name: Solarus Rank: Trainee Bloodline & Class: Kiranu & Berserker Talent Description: Anything non-living that he can hold completely in one or two hands (IE If he grabs something his hand fits around it entirely) he can grow it into various trees and grow those trees in various manners.
This is going to replace my elemental style, and I'll be coming up with custom techniques for it. Talent Weakness: Loses elemental ability, and can only learn three hand-to-hand style. How did the character get this talent?: Solarus grew up in a dense forest, closer to nature than most Kiranu as a part of his upbringing as a Tiger Kiranu. (Off breed Feline Kiranu). This caused him to lose his forest-destructive element, the power to wield Fire, and was given in return the ability to help spread the forests, that of Recycling. Sample:
Solarus knelt down at the end of the alleyway, glaring at the trash that was floating around him. Since coming here to the civilized world, only Kusana had been close enough to nature for him not to be disgusted everywhere he looked. This place, this Pronta, was filled with stones and mortar, very little of the trees he had grown up with. He growled under his breath and snagged a piece of trash and closed his eyes as he focused intently. A surge of energy rippled through the Kiranu's body, creating a sapling in the palm of his hand. He tore up a piece of the stonework here, and planted the sapling. "Grow well."
[Combat Sample]
Solarus flipped around the attacks of the Knight, trying to get past his shield while attacking him. This wasn't working out for him - the man kept bringing that shield around in the nick of time to block his attacks, and while the metal plate was dented and battered, the Kiranu knew that he wouldn't be able to outlast the Lycan. He saw his chance then - a small stone was laying on the ground near him. The tiger-like man grinned his feral grin, then rolled to the side, one hand scooping up the stone and tightening around it. He slammed his hand against the ground, making the Lycanthrope Knight pause and look at him in confusion. That look was shattered when a thin conifer tree shot up between his legs, slamming into his crotch and sending him flying through the air. The Kiranu dashed after him, scooping up some of the shattered wood chips from the tree, and threw himself under the falling knight. His hands glowed against, then a spiral of wood spun out from his hands, wrapping together to form a shield that was projected away from his body. The Knight fell onto the strangely shaped tree, and had time to notice that it didn't break - it was like rubber, or a spring, as it stretched down, then flung the man back into the air, high into the air. When he fell back down and hit the ground, the impact shattered his bones inside his body. Before he could recover, he felt a fist slam into his breastplate. His eyes widened for a moment when he saw the Kiranu grin widely and place one hand against his chest. "Grow well." A tree erupted on the Werewolf's chest, its roots plunging into his body. [End Sample]

shruikan: This is almost acceptable, but since your a swordmaster technically ALL of your skills are weapon related, aside from your element. So you have to choose exactly which set of skills get the boost, either your class-specific skills, or weapon style skills.
ronnel: Someone's been watching too much Law of Ueki. >.> Accepted.

RPC Name: Julia Lexington Rank: Trainee Bloodline & Class: Human, Gunslinger Talent Description: Due to one of her ancestors down the line of her family, Julia has the allure of a succubus. Her allure is just as effective against Lycans, Vampires, and Draconians, because she also lacks the unique smell Succubi have. (It works on girls as well, with permission.) Talent Weakness: Julia lacks any other traits from the bloodline, and due to her having to groom herself to keep up her looks often, she loses on rank of strength from lack of muscle use. How did the character get this talent?: Her talent is a genetic anomaly from the long diffusion of the succubus blood in her family line. That, and she likes to make sure she looks her best at all times of day. Sample:
Julia gently glided her finger across the top of her wine glass, staring into the crimson liquid inside of it. She was in a bar, just passing the time. There hadn't been anything to do all day besides practice shooting targets, but she was already quite accurate. Besides, she wants to pick up a man tonight. She had only been in there for ten minutes, looking lonely, before a man and stepped up to her. He was drunk, which wouldn't do.
"Hey there girl, how 'bout I buy you a drink?" The man asked, leaning against the bar and giving her a drunk smile.
"No." Julia replied, keeping her eyes in the direction opposite of him.
"Psh, fine, whore." The drunk man turned around and walked off, a frown plastered across his face. At least he wasn't 'smashed,' then he would have pushed the issue. Julia eyed the surrounding crowd, noticing that most of the people were at the tables, chatting with friends. There was barely anyway at the bar, and she liked to prey on lone victims. It was always a hassle to get approval from someone's friends before she could take a guy, or girl. Her emerald hues fell upon a man sitting at the other end of the bar, carefully sipping at his vodka on the rocks, and staring off into the space before him. A smirk curled her lips, and she slid herself off of the stool she sat upon. The bottom of her boots padded softly against the flooring as she walked over to the man, her mind dead set on taking him home to night. Once she had reached his side, she slid onto the stool next to him.
"Hello there handsome, what's your name?" The man turned his head and looked at Julia, setting his vodka against the bar. His eyes traveled from head to toe, and back up, sending just the right signal.
"It's Eldrich, yours?" He replied.
"Julia, what are you doing here tonight, Eldrich? A fine man like you doesn't look like the type to spend his time at a bar."
"Neither are you, but I guess we are both of the odd sort, as there aren't very many women around her carrying guns in plain view." He said, a smirking crossing his lips.
"Of course, but a lady like me knows how to protect herself, and physical scuffles just aren't my thing. A man is less likely to attack me if he see's the steel of my guns, so, how about I 'attack' you, and take you to my house? I'd rather talk further there." Eldrich looked at his drink for a moment, then back at Julia, clearly he was concerned about something, and her best guess was that he was just here to spend some time away from his loved one. She could tell he was engaged by the ring on his right hand, such a perfect catch.
"I don't think so, I'm just going to finish my drink and go back home."
"Come now, don't play hard to get." Julia said, her tongue gliding across her lips. She moved her right and carefully across his shoulder onto his back, bringing herself closer to him. Her hand removed itself from his back and wrapped about his arm, at the time time Julia lightly pressing her breasts against it. "Come back to my place."
Eldrich's eyes shot down to her breasts, the immediate allure of them and her figure being clearly apparent. A light blush settled onto his face, and he reluctantly slid from his seat, following Julia out of the bar in her arm.

RPC Name:Kyo Rank:Trainee (Taking novice test now) Bloodline & Class: Cursed soul, swordmaster. Talent Description: Cursed mode: Cursed mode is a mode his body and mind go into when he is in extreme danger, or extreme emotional distress. The cursed drive itself, is his bodies way of taking control of a situation. The Kuro Kotogara, Forms around his body and condenses into an armor like form. This "armor".. Isn't so much an armor as a weapon. It adds two to his strength, and two to his speed while in this form he can no longer distinguish friend, from foe. A black katana forms out of the kuro kotagara this katana kuro katana, which can only be made when in this form, is as strong as titanium, The armor itself is as strong as titanium. This form lasts Ten posts. This can only be used once a month. Meaning only a possible 12 times a year. Talent Weakness: the weakness to it is, that he can't distinguish friend from foe in this form, and to even enter this form something must have happened to trigger it. whether it be the death of a loved one right before his eyes, or himself being near death. Once he exits the form he has burn like marks all over his body (though these aren't like normal burns, they will heal normally and leave no scars or marks will last about a week or so). And any weapons he carried as he goes into the form are destroyed. How did the character get this talent?: He gained this through his years of battling. His body eventually developed a new form of defense. In which his body would take over. (He would no longer be in the drivers seat xD) And the Kuro kotogara which is as much a part of him as his hands, was the way to do this. But he believes the Heavens, and hell played arole in this. Wanting to make sure he stayed on earth to suffer, wanting him to watch the ones he loves die. And because he loses control and will attack both friend and foe, they hoped he would take out those he loved himself making his life an even worse hell... Sample: Kyo watched as the lycan raped the woman he loved, he was chained down and couldn't break free all of his weapons already destroyed, he heard her screams, he heard the laughter of the lycan. He felts his heart begin to beat rapidly, tears of rage began to flow down his face. He let out a roar of rage, and the kuro began to form around his body in an armor he broke freeof the chains and a katana like blade formed in his hand, he launched forward at insane speed, the lycan matched that speed as he spun around and ended the rape for the moment, but the blade stabbing through the lycans chest. But also into his loves.. When the armor slowly faded away and he saw what he had done his hands trembled as he pushed the lycan off of her and held her in his armstears flowing down his-....(You get the idea...)  Picture of armor and sword... only ya know... black.
