"You gotta Jump Jump!"

Hah! I now have an idea for a new character! And there will be Persona 3 references! And his powers are reliant on certain special weapons and incorperate blood magic. However, there is no manipulation like the others... he is restricted to channeling his power through 'techniques' or 'arts' that are related to each of the weapons. Essentially, he is going to have 4 sets of weapons. The primary set of weapons is a single longsword, a special one at that. The secondary set of weapons is going to be a spear. The tertiary set of weapons is going to be two handguns (note... does not fire bullets, connected to the techniques by the way). And the final set weapon is an Evoker. Which is the Persona 3 reference. My character will be able to summon a Persona through the use of the Evoker, and that is the only purpose that the Evoker can be used for and I quote from the Megami Tensai wiki: "A Persona is a manifestation of a person's personality in the Persona series, referred to as a "mask" for an individual to use to face hardship. A Persona is similar to a Shadow. Shadows are malevolent manifestations of one's inner thoughts, while a Persona is a manifestation of the same feelings but tamed and trained. If an individual takes up a resolution in his or her heart, the Persona will undergo a metamorphosis into a stronger form. While the summoning sequences of a Persona differs from one installment to the next, a tradition that later adaptions follow is that blue-ish fogs are always released when a Persona is invoked."

An evoker is: "The Evoker is a gun-esque item that appeared in Persona 3. It functions as a summoning medium for members of SEES to invoke and control their Personae. Evokers are created and manufactured by the Kirijo Group. Apparently using Evokers can be traumatizing and tiring, as SEES members apparently get tired or hold fears upon their first summoning. The game states that they are not actual guns.

While human members use gun-esque evokers to summon their Personae, there are several unique cases, such as Koromaru. Being a dog, he utilizes a collar-shaped evoker to summon his Persona. Moreover, Aegis, being an Anti-Shadow weapon has a built in Evoker. Takaya Sakaki, an artificial Persona-user, is able to summon his Persona without the use of an Evoker. "

And the manner of summoning: "To summon their respective Personae, users would press the evoker to their head and pull the trigger, giving out a pale, blue-ish fog that covers them while giving out the shape of their Personae. The concept of Evoker was originally designed to be Tarot Cards as a summoning medium to invoke the Personae, similar to the summoning sequence in the Persona 2 (The concept was later continued in Persona 4), but it was later changed to a gun. Interestingly, in the Japanese version, Evokers are a genuine gun modified to become a summoning device instead of a gun replica.

When the Persona user holds the Evoker against their head, emulating the bullet shot brings themselves a sense of terror, a strong realization of 'Death'. Thus, they reach a state of empty-mindedness which allows them to summon their Persona. "

This is my idea for my next character... no manipulation, just the weapons he can summon, his Persona and his Blood Magic and his techniques. I plan for a few techniques to seem like elemental techniques but aren't treated as elemental attacks due to the Blood Magic aspect, preventing them from being manipulated by others. For example... one of my ideas for an elemental technique is for the duel gun set of weapons.


"Blood Lightning, Kamui (the character's name), after summoning his duel gun weapon set, channels the arcane energies within his blood into his weapon, and allows blood to seep into the crystals that are a main part of the weapon. Then Kamui will fire the weapon, invoking the power of his unique arcane blood, and in the process, release a blast of a red lightning bolt. This is the 'Blood Lightning', and has no elemental attribute or nature to it, so it is unable to be manipulated by anyone except for those who are born with the power of Blood Magic. Due to its non-elemental existence, it does not even have an Energy nature, prevent those with energy-orientated powers from controlling it. However upon impact, it will cause large amounts of burns and weaken the victim, while also poisoning them with toxins. These toxins are extremely weak and come from Kamui's blood (since the human blood carries the toxins to the kidneys and liver through the blood stream), and they will gradually weaken in terms of the potency of their powers and their physical endurance, due to Kamui's arcane blood."

PostPosted: Fri Jul 09, 2010 5:39 pm


No well yea but this one just wouldn't work. Persona don't exist in this world so unless he comes up with a good and i mean a damn good explanation as to why I should let them exist. I know how persona work I have played the games I understand it and I know it wouldn't work well with the set up of this world.

sorry guys, i got in a lot of trouble today because of my tendancy to stay on until 3 ish. the thing is, that adam has all of susan's power right now...so if he were to need to "fight for control" it would be 2 on one essentially. i originally created susan as a response for memic.

also, this came up in chat before, but you'd have a hard time moving susan. dark does not effect her, and light instantly kills her. she cannot perceive the effects of dark in such a way that no amount of using it would have effects on her that she can perceive. perceptible to her. though you could lift the ground below her with it, or shield her from people who can perceive it/be effected by it.

if adam tries to control something, it loses any fuel the persons spirit once gave it. so yeah...much weaker. i only chose this ability because i needed something to get adam completely unstuck from koriinu's ice. it seemed easier to use the strength of 2 people to force her spirit out, then to break an unbreakable object.

also it would be hard for susan to accidently grant a power. susan can only grant powers with a task. the act of touching won't do it. you have to have contact, agree to perform the task, and on some level accept susan's help (though she doesn't have to be open with your character about what her "help" is)....though a practiced mind can reject it if it's the first time even under those conditions. i cannot see memic accepting the terms of her power...and i think she would have enough life experience to know better.


when i made susan i assumed the lack of control over other players, and the unlikeliness of players reacting as planned would help balance her powers since she gets less out of it. i had also thought the curse factor would balance out the powers she gives. if you, malix, do not feel this is the case then i feel it'd be better to end susan than having unfair powers floating around.

adam also HAS to win his next real fight. the terms are vague enough that koriinu discontinuing without a given surrender from either party doesn't count for or against. but if he actually loses a fight in a manner that is obviously a loss, your powers go until you can win against the opponent who beat you. though it will be fun to see memic unable to successfully use powers that effect things outside her body.

Hmm...
||thinks thinks and thinks some more||
Okay... maybe this conceptual idea makes barely any sense, but what if the 'Personae' are effectively the side of the Persona-user that exists in a parallel reality/dimension/universe. Essentially the polar opposite of the user's personality. Those who have a spiritual affinity (aka being a Persona User) can summon their Persona to their side to assist them using a device that forces them to have extreme amounts of willpower to 'pull the trigger', and it unlocks an hidden innate psionic ability to call forth the Persona. The process warps the form of the alternate into the form it appears in our world due to the dimensional barriers, however they return to normal when they are unsummoned. The entire process is a test of faith, willpower and the like in order to summon it. Of course, since this character is going to be reliant on techniques and not manipulation (well... <.< Essentially all characters who have powers in this guild have manipulation/creation powers), I am going to have to work with you on each technique to make them non-overpowered regardless if I get the Persona or not, because even the Persona is going to be reliant on its own techniques. Plus, I plan for a system just for that character that restricts what kind of techniques can be used, how often, cool downs, etc. Thing of like MP or something like that. <.<

Example... a base MP amount would be like... 15. Certain techniques would use 1 MP, other techniques could use 5, etc. There might be ranks to classify the techniques even further and the ranks also put additional restrictions on the usage of them. (Considering it is Blood Magic after all... emphasis on the Blood)

Ok Crystalline I am again going to say no. I could explain why each part of that would not work but I would rather not right now. So I will explain briefly why this would not work. You are taking a battle concept from a video game and trying to insert it into this world where it has no premise.

Now that I have said that I will also ask this. How many characters do you have right now? 3 If I am correct and that also happens to be the character limit for members. So you can't have a 4th character (though technically you already do because of Hikaru/Masato). Crew and up can have more than 3 though that is only one more character. The only way to get another "character slot" is by winning a tournament or a contest of sorts. (there are things like this planned)

Ok now I am finished. *bows*

Id love to have a fourth character. Then I could bring in a member of the fire elemental family and show you just how opposite ice and fire truly are.

Ice: RULES AT DEFENSE, Not as good offense.
Fire: RULES AT OFFENSE, Not as good defense
