Name: Aurora Imogen St. Grey

Nickname: Imagi

Age: 14

Birthday: May 31

Sign: Gemini

Gemstone: Pearl

Blood Type: AB

Fav. Food: Any rice candy, such as mochi

Hated Food: Picky eater, but especially dislikes sour things

School: Crystal Academy, on academic scholarship

Hobbies:

Bio-alchemy - Imagi has taken a liking to plants and herbs. She knows the properties of herbs and can recognize various scents. She grows her own herbs for use in herbal remedies and is always ready to share some of her concoctions, whether they work or not. Imagi has a great sense of smell and taste and will often pick up the scent of a plant while foraging or keep a few tea leaves or mint on her for making snacks.

Fact Finder - Imagi enjoys learning new things. She can often be found doing research in the library. She will try and learn everything she can about one subject. Sometimes her interests bounce from one thing to another. She often re-reads books she finds interesting. Imagi often spouts facts she finds.

A Suprise in Every Capsule - Imagi loves gashapon machines. She got used to collecting the capsules while at the arcade since she has too poor of eye-sight to play the video games. She organizes the trinkets she wins in her room and keeps almost everything, but she will give some to friends on occasion as good luck charms. Imagi also collects cards. She especially likes the kind with the magic monsters in the pocket-sized balls. She treasures her special holo-foil cards and offering her one is a sure way to get on her good side. Imagi can often be found placing cards in their special clear protectors, battling against herself or just admiring them.

Virtues:

Forever in My Memory - Imagi has an eidetic memory. She remembers most things she hears or sees. She does not have perfect recall and things can be hazy, however. This mostly just results in random knowledge being recalled and added to a conversation when it's not needed, but at times this can be a great asset, especially when you just can't remember that one thing you just have to know. Imagi is very detail-oriented and her unique memory allows her to be resourceful.

Heart of the Matter - Imagi is level-headed. She thinks things through before acting and has a calm mind. She is not emotional which allows her to be objective when others can't. She is extremely observant. Imagi sees the bigger picture and will forgo her own plans to see another's through.

Blind Insight - Imagi is rather wise. She may be near-sighted physically, but the girl is insightful when it comes to difficult situations that amass in life. She is very introspective and uses that insight to help others in need of sound advice. Imagi may not always have the social skills, but she does have wisdom that belies her often awkward persona.

Flaws:

Expressions Not Included - Imagi is notoriously hard to read. She has never taken much note of other people's expressions and can fail to notice when someone is emotional. She also doesn't show much emotion herself. But if you can get even the smallest smile or smirk from her, you know she is very happy.

In Another World - Imagi can get lost in thought. She often interrupts people or loses people in a conversation if it takes too long. She doesn't mean to, but she can drift off into her own imagination on a whim. She often does not make eye contact and this can make others think she is rude or disinterested.

Just Like Animals - Imagi doesn't understand social cues. She behaves oddly and moves awkwardly, sometimes perching on an object and just staring. This gets in the way of Imagi making friends as she can seem odd to others. Sometimes this trait makes her seem younger than she is.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

Eyes: Blue like sister's, clouded and wears glasses for seeing close objects

Hair: Dark grey, long and loose with a loop on either side with two star clips on either side

Face: Pale and expressionless

Clothes: School uniform, but can usually also be found with a light grey v-neck sweater

Attacks: Related to mochi

Sailor Scout Attack: Rice Powder, Dust!
Defensive/Ranged/Magic. The caster spreads out her hands and rice powder fills the air covering her body in a circle.

Super Sailor Scout Attack: Mochigome Powder, Veil!
Defensive/Ranged/Magic. The caster spreads out her hands and multi-colored rice powder fills the air in front of an area she designates. The dust can slightly disorient a target and block vision. The disorientation will stay with the target if it moves out of the area of effect. It can now cover two targets. It has a 15-foot radius. It lasts for 30 seconds. Can be used two times, but never on the same target more than once, per battle.

Eternal Sailor Attack: Mochi Pounding, Pulse!
Support/Ranged/Magic. The caster stomps on the ground and a strong pulse emanates from a circle around her and the hollow sound of a wooden bowl pounding mochi can be heard in a steady rhythm. The circle has a 10-foot radius and can hold other people besides herself. The pulse pushes any person, object or attack away from the center of the circle. Can be used once per battle.

Hey, Meighei! Second verse, same as the first. smile

As a general note, you may want to scale back her vision problems, as completely or nearly-blind characters are typically inadvisable.

Hobbies

Bio-Alchemy - I would love to know more about what Imagi does with herbs and plants. Does she grow her own, or does she visit specialty shops? What does she do with them? Does she cook, make extracts, soaps, etc? How long has she been interested in this?

Solitaire - Solitaire is a specific card game. I think you might want to call this something more appropriately descriptive like "Collectible Card Games". Also, just say Pokemon. wink Does Imagi just collect cards, or does she also like to play the associated game? Does she collect the characters she thinks look pretty, or the strongest cards, or does she want to have the complete set?

A Surprise in Every Capsule - How long has she been collecting? What does she do with her winnings? Does she keep them? If yes, how does she display them?

Virtues

Forever in my Memory - What does Imagi's eidetic memory enable her to do? Does she impress people by remembering minute details about their lives? Is she particularly thoughtful in her gift-giving? Does she never, ever miss a birthday? Basically, how does this trait impact her every-day life and become something that affects her interactions with others?

Luck favors the blind - Having good luck is not a virtue, but Imagi's ability to have others do things for her is intriguing. You might want to consider changing this to something that Imagi is more active in doing, like being considerate towards others and good at asking for things politely and skilled at sincere thank-yous and apologies? Polite, maybe?

You Didn't Know you Needed to Know That - What form does Imagi's resourcefulness take? Does she go out of her way to be prepared for all situations, always carry around a first aid kit, study survival techniques, etc, or is it more of a passive thing where she has just picked up knowledge over time?

Flaws

Expressions Not Included - Please consider the following article about blindness and facial expressions and reconsider this trait. smile Imagi could still be a fairly reserved person, but a lack of expression based on blindness is scientifically inaccurate.

In Another World - How long does it take for Imagi to get bored with a conversation? Does she interrupt them because she wants to change the subject, or because she wants to get straight to the point, or because her thoughts have gone elsewhere?

Just Like Animals - How does this impact Imagi's interactions with others? Does she find it difficult to pick up on subtext and body language? Does she have issues with personal space and understanding when she is making people uncomfortable? In general, considering both how the trait makes the character act and how this impacts their life helps make for a well-rounded write-up. smile

Senshi Stuff

Sailor Scout Attack So it absorbs attacks. Cool. What would happen if a Negaverser's weapon were to go through it? Would it be restored eventually?

Super Sailor Scout Attack How long is the target teleported to the other dimension for? What is this other dimension like?

Eternal Sailor Attack I don't understand what this has to do with her sphere. sad The effects of this attack read more like a knight's summons than like a senshi attack. You may want to go back to the drawing board on this one.

Anyway, like with your other profile, you've got some great basics here! But I do think that you would benefit a lot from some fleshing out and also from rethinking some problem areas. smile

hello meighei,

i wanted to drop off some information i learned from a quest that also addressed dimensionality. this was an excerpt of the PM sent to me regarding dimensionality. hopefully you'll be able to use this info to your advantage!

Quote:
Unfortunately, we feel it is overpowered for [character] to literally be capable of accessing an alternate dimension of any kind with his magic - magic of that type is generally considered to be an illusion of some kind or another, rather than literal. Accessing other dimensions is an incredibly powerful ability and while a few characters in our shop have been able to do it, they have been meta level characters.


so you may want to clarify that the magic within this character's sphere is illusory!

good luck on your quest!

Should I change her sphere to something like teleportation? Asking for some advice on this as I don't know exactly how powerful these characters should be.

Hry sweetie, not an official crit, just tossing my advice. You can take or leave it as you like - unlike official crits, where if Staff says something, you'll need to clarify, address, or alter it. XD

Hobbies: Hobbies look to have a good start! You might want to flesh these out a little more - where and why she likes her hobbies, when/where she partakes in them, how it affects her life. The current information is an excellent start and totally interesting though!

Virtues and flaws:

Still good starts! I'm loving her traits - they just need more fleshing out. How do they affect her daily life? Why are they positive or negative? Generally your virtues paint up the positives, and acknowledging minor setbacks of them are alright, while negatives are painted opposite, such as how her behavious might make others feel and how it affects her interpersonal relationships.

Vision: This one is super important. You'll want to note her eye color first and formost, so artists know the colour to cloud over. As far as vision, she can wear contacts of glasses that correct it without needing 20/20 (normal/perfect) eyesight. Perhaps without her contacts or glasses her eyes are weak, so she may wear them and have 20/50 vision. She can't drive, but she can recognize movement and what's occurring around her enough without seeing details like individual leave. I'd cap the poor vision as 20/70 if I'm honest. Any worse is a giant safety hazard and speaking from life experience, 20/7-0 would be a big dnough problem without making her prone to being killed.

At time of typing, I'm corrected to that, so I do advise that being the 'max bad end' if your powering her up for her safety and to help her enter play. You might also want to consider glasses or contacts, to help - when she powers, eye accessories at prescription can certainly be in her fuku - for example Sailor Alrescha wears glasses, and in her powered form as a senshi, they become a visor so she can see. Visually impaired characters can play, but you needs remember the limits of their ability and mind their safety!

Magic:

Powered side magic!

Right now it's a little bit overpowered, and a little unclear/not possible in shop canon.

There's ways to fix it! Teleporting via a door is possible, and then you can have her cause someone to hallucinate about being in another dimension - for 30 seconds at basic, 50 at Suoer, give or take. Her eternal could also follow the trend. Another type of dimension to consider is the 3 Dimensions - the 3 we live in that allow for a 3D world. Maybe people might be forced to only move or see front or back or hallucinate they are? Dimensions is a SUPER tricky sphere, and if you want attack ideas or help I always, ALWAYS suggest PMing the staff for help~!

I hope I was helpful - good luck! c:

my understanding of the locked spheres list is it's to be taken literally, rather than in the spirit of the listed power - so while dimensions relates to space, it may be acceptable as it's not literally space.

teleportation might also be good! if you'd like to brainstorm ideas, i would be happy to assist over pm or aim.

I am working on the attacks and sphere so that they do not use another dimension as their source.

You asked in the thread if your senshi's fuku was too dark, and I think (in general) so long as the predominant color is white for the bodice, and the darker colors do not overpower the core aspects and theme of the standard uniform, than it's fine. You have a very mild grey and pink and a dark green, which reminds me of pluto! I think it's fine.

That said, I do think that perhaps you ought to chose a different sphere. Dimensions, as well as Summons, the partnered quest you have, are both aspects of play in the shop and game mechanics. It becomes difficult to give them a premise as a playable sphere when they embody meta level elements and mechanics. (Dimensions in AUs, in actual worlds, settings etc, Summons in how youma, weapons, and knight summons work), Unfortunately, that would be the same line that I don't think teleportation would really be a workable quest. Teleportation and such mechanics are very centrally a negaverse and knight-centric ability, so i am hesitant in how much of her powers or what kind would be permissible.

That being said, something more possible might be Reflection rather than Dimension. Reflections can become distorted, they can alter the way we see things, and such. An alternative for Summons might be Companions- as then its more about something that exists in a bond rather than creating one or calling to an existing bond. They're simple alternatives that would be I think, much less complex and possibly much less difficult to 'work around' in the setting while giving you what seems to be your thematic goals!

I also looked at your other senshi's fiuku and really do love the design. They've very old school in terms of being in line with the original show, yet also are very unique. A+

I have a few ideas for this girl's sphere since dimensions won't do.

Now for her sister and her sphere of summoning I thought would work, but it may not pass certing after all if it, like dimensions, is already in the meta.

I didn't realize how much there is to avoid with these powers.

I am glad to know this newbling has at least done something right around here.

It's not a matter of doing right or wrong. NotM is REALLY complex in a lot of ways, a great deal of info is easy to miss or overlook. Spheres can be difficult often times, due to power overlaps, its just a matter of finding one that suits, is fairly non conflicting with things in play, and making it fit.

Hola, sweetie! Sorry you're getting so many crits. I'm not an official crit person, so you can take my advice or not!

100 feet, even for an eternal attack, is too wide of a radius. Way too wide. I have a feeling the fact that the only thing that can break this spell is up to the caster is going to have to be altered a bit, too.

Attacks that are up to the spell caster to break is usually reserved for royals and NPCs!
