█BACKGROUND ▬ (Text) Zachariah never got to know his mother or father for he was just a baby when he was left on the doorsteps of an orphanage, but with that loss he gained a different kind of family. Zachariah grew as an orphan alongside human and faunus children at a place called Sacred Rose Orphanage, once located in the kingdom of Vale. There in that monastery of a home Zachariah was taught manners, chivalry and a love of books. He dealt with challenges of racism and poverty yet through it all it was because his faunus friend Felicia that Zachariah was able to trudge through bullies and life's bulls**t. What also helped him were the stories of hunters told to him just about every night and his eyes watching soldiers train at the near by army base. While violence was frowned upon at the orphanage Zachariah couldn't contain his want to be a hero and thus trained in secret. Zachariah couldn't keep the secret hidden for long thought since Felicia trailed him and made him promise to train her so that she wouldn't go tell on him. Zachariah knew it was her way of asking to join so he didnt mind, until the other kids later followed and found out as well.
For a time life seemed to be perfect for Zachariah. The orphan was surrounded by those who cared for him, he had a hobby others wanted to do as well and he was even given his long awaited Guilded Rose, which was an Insignia of the church as a ruby stoned rose with gold holding it all together. This rose was given to him and Felicia on their sixteenth birthday as was the special custom of the church, signifying they are learned enough to make it out in the world, but this day soon led by tragedy. Zachariah wasn't sure what happened but the was an explosion within the church and the collapse of the building claimed many lives, some of them on the streets as stones fell from on high. By some miracle Zachariah had survived buried underneath debris but was then taken to the hospital to be told the news that almost no one survived. There was a lot of talk that some racist humans caused the blast since the church was known to house faunus children mostly but Zachariah didn't care about that. With his home lost and his best friend in the world thought to be dead Zachariah disappeared and tried living a quiet life on his own. The young man soon learned the world could be a messed up place and was even quicker to learn how to survive with the skewed rules of a cold world. And yet for that entire year Zachariah couldn't shake the guilt of living such a way. He knew that if Felicia were there she'd be disheartened to see him rob and fight like some common thug.
It was now at the age of seventeen that Zachariah decided to make a change in his life and after a few months travel he's finally arrived at Beacon Academy and sets off to become an honourable man and a hero to help change the world for the better one mission at a time.
█ █ ╫ I N V E N T O R Y ╫
█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Freyja & Freyr █ ▬ Zachariah's handmade swords which have a diffrent gun built in each and they can transform into separate shields or a combined full body shield as well. The swords, with both of them going at about 49 inches in total height, has it's gun mechanism hidden and covered under the guard with the weapon's shield twist toggle located at the top of the hilt for easy and quick access while having a dust chamber guarded within the weapon's handle. █Melee Form ▬ The swords are claymore styled in their design making it somewhat thick but handy at a size of 49 inches in total. █Ranged Form ▬ The swords doesn't transform as apposed to unlock in order to use its gun form, with the center of the sword splitting slightly to reveal the gun barrel. In Freyja a high powered rifle is built within which holds clips of 21 rounds while in Freyr there is a wide combat shotgun which can hold up to 12 shotgun rounds. █Other Form(s) ▬ While the gun is still accessible in sword form Freyja & Freyr must completely transform to enter its shield form. After the sword splits it shifts and uses its inner components to take the shape of a normal shield which offers some room to hide behind. Another optional form of this a full-body shield but this requires both swords be combined into the full-body shield for this to happen. In addition, only when full-body shield is deployed, the round guard of the handle can be opened to allow a peephole and offer a guarded position to shoot from; Though a limited amount of an angle. █Ammo Type ▬ Both weapons use physical ammunition such as a verify of "thirty-aught-six" rifle bullets or a verify of shotgun shells, but each sword may only use the type of ammo corresponding to the proper type of gun in said sword. █Drawbacks ▬ While Freyja & Freyr do have guns built-in it is somewhat iffy on accuracy and is somewhat cumbersome; Not very well suited for close quarters combat. In addition, once the sword is transformed into a shield, or vice versa, there is a lockdown period of one post; Meaning that if shield is shifted into its sword form then it can not change back into a shield the following post.
█*NAME ▬ Paladin's Light █*AURA COLOR ▬ White █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Zachariah's dream of becoming a hero manifest itself in the form of raw energy being shaped into forms of heroic feats. The stronger he becomes the more aura he'll have to use such a gift, and the wiser he becomes the more control he'll have over his imagination of heroic expression. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ In a basic understanding of Aura flow and control Zachariah is able to channel his power onto his weapon and enhance its strike or blanket an armor of aura around his body for two strikes; His sword becoming sharper, bullets punching harder or his shield standing larger. While this is a good technique it'll stick around for A post more than what current level of Semblance being used. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to preform/take in 2 more strikes per level. (Lv 0: 1 Post duration. Lv 1: 2 Post duration. Lv 2: 3 Post duration. Lv 3: 4 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 2 Strikes. Lv 1: 4 Strikes. Lv 2: 6 Strikes. Lv 3: 8 Strikes.) █*LEVEL 1▬ With a better command of his aura Zachariah is able to imagine his power into the form of large magical blades, about the size of a thick Zweihänder, or magical shields, in the shape of a Scutum, which he controls telepathically. The blades and shield are strong but vanish after a single strong attack; Whether it be given or taken. His focus can control these swords or shields for up to 30 feet until he losses contact with them and the weapons or shields disappear. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to summon x2 magical objects per level. (Lv 0: 0 Post duration. Lv 1: 1 Post duration. Lv 2: 2 Post duration. Lv 3: 3 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 0 Summons. Lv 1: 2 Summons. Lv 2: 4 Summons. Lv 3: 8 Summons.) █*LEVEL 2▬ Now able to harden and compress his aura Zachariah envelops his weapon in a brilliant light which shines out violently. When used in sword form the blade shines and shoots out tons of spines (zoology) wildly to stab at whatever they hit. When used in gun form a single shoot orb of light will fire and explode out tons of the spines of light. When used in shield form the shield blinds opponents and is covered in layers upon layers of spines, like dragon scales, which highly enforce its defence while making it dangerous and capable of impaling opponents due to its spines. As Zachariah becomes stronger he will have better aim with this attack and becomes able to empower both weapons for this technique instead of using just one. (Lv 2: 100 Number of total spines. Lv 3: 300 Number of total spines.) (Lv 0: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 1: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 2: 1 Weapon(s). Lv 3: 2 Weapon(s).) █*LEVEL 3 ▬ With a mastery of his unyielding spirit Zachariah raises his weapon high overhead, sword pointed up to the sky, and with a mighty slash a grandiose sword of holy light crashes down upon his enemies and devastates opponents caught up in the glow of this explosive strike. While this technique only has the range of a 60 feet diameter from Zachariah it is a high power which should be carefully watched. (Lv 0: 0 Excalibur. Lv 1: 0 Excalibur. Lv 2: 0 Excalibur. Lv 3: 1 Excalibur. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ For the first level of his aura (Lv 0) Zachariah must make contact with his slash or gunshot in order for the added damage to be dealt while any miss still taking away from his strike count. The max amount of uses for this technique is six times per day with a cooldown of three post between uses. For then next level (Lv 1) Zachariah can only control the summoned objects in a field up to 30 feet from Zachariah's position, but another thing is that the swords can be struck with a strong attack to destroy them before they do damage. The max amount of uses for this technique is four times per day with a cooldown of two posts between uses. Next level (Lv 2) is dangerous not only to the enemy but to Zachariah and his allies as well since the blast of spines fly in random directions; Only later is Zachariah able to get some control. This holds true for the gunshot version of this attack as all the spines disperse randomly and all at once. The max amount of uses for this technique is three times per day with a cooldown of three post between uses. And for the last level (Lv 3) the strike is quite powerful and able to clear a large field of area (an attack that has a 60 feet diameter) but after the attack Zachariah is unable to use any form of his semblance for 4 post afterwards. If Zachariah uses it a second time he'll immediately pass out and be unable to battle.

❖❖❖Assessment❖❖❖ Hello, my name is Youroka Kage, and I'll be judging your profile today! Sorry it took so long, I had started a few days ago, but I lost internet for a day and a half and my ability to get what I had already written.
❖I'm sorry, but we don't allow white text in our profiles, however, I did the testing, and 5 of the
[list]
allows for the spacing to be the way that you want it. You would only have to close it off with 5
[/list]
For an example, open up the spoiler. ❖ Ok, so for your bonus Talent, we do not allow people to have extra aura as it makes it harder for the guild mods to moderate. ❖ Ok, what other types of weapons do you know? ❖ Stake spelled like that, if it's a wooden stake to kill a vampire while eating with potatoes. If Steak and Potatoes are good though. ^.^ ❖ For Nature, we want to know more about your character. It should be at least a paragraph. It explains things like if you are shy, or out going, how you interact with others, ect. ❖
Quote:
(1.) Three Forms- You cannot have more than 3 weapon forms unless your weapon is significantly weaker than a normal weapon. Usually you should have two major fighting forms and a storage form. We do allow exceptions depending on the power level of the weapon though. (2.) 20% Sizeshift - Please don't have your weapon or character size shifting more than 20%. It is just unrealistic. Your cellphone cannot shift into a battleaxe. Sorry.
The reason that I have quoted the rule is because with what is said, your weapons would have a sword form, a gun form, a shield form, a club form and then a dagger form. However, the second one that I quoted would not allow you to have the dagger form. You would have to keep both both swords on your back. I should mention, that any moving part of it would count as a form. ❖ Ok, after talking to our weapons expert, and me doing research on my own, I need to know how big these weapons are. I say this because the average size for a Claymore is 40 cm (55 in) according to the wiki. The other reason is that they are typically two-handed weapons. We will get back to the weapons once this question is answered. ❖Ok, onto the semblance. First thing I need to know is the over all time that you can hold the strikes. We do this in post count times. The number of posts can increase with level. ❖ Ok, so level 1. I need the over all time limit they disappear in as well. However, after consulting with some people, we agree that 4 is way too much for level 1, I suggest starting with 1, and then moving to a total of 4. 100 yards is too much for how far you can control the weapons. ❖ For level 2, I need to know how many spikes the bullets explode into. The reason I need this is because I need to determine if this is able to be dodged. ❖ I can not allow 100 yards for the size of your level 3.

█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ Zachariah never got to know his mother or father for he was just a baby when he was left on the doorsteps of an orphanage, but with that loss he gained a different kind of family. Zachariah grew as an orphan alongside human and faunus children at a place called Sacred Rose Orphanage, once located in the kingdom of Vale. There in that monastery of a home Zachariah was taught manners, chivalry and a love of books. He dealt with challenges of racism and poverty yet through it all it was because his faunus friend Felicia that Zachariah was able to trudge through bullies and life's bulls**t. What also helped him were the stories of hunters told to him just about every night and his eyes watching soldiers train at the near by army base. While violence was frowned upon at the orphanage Zachariah couldn't contain his want to be a hero and thus trained in secret. Zachariah couldn't keep the secret hidden for long thought since Felicia trailed him and made him promise to train her so that she wouldn't go tell on him. Zachariah knew it was her way of asking to join so he didnt mind, until the other kids later followed and found out as well.
For a time life seemed to be perfect for Zachariah. The orphan was surrounded by those who cared for him, he had a hobby others wanted to do as well and he was even given his long awaited Guilded Rose, which was an Insignia of the church as a ruby stoned rose with gold holding it all together. This rose was given to him and Felicia on their sixteenth birthday as was the special custom of the church, signifying they are learned enough to make it out in the world, but this day soon led by tragedy. Zachariah wasn't sure what happened but the was an explosion within the church and the collapse of the building claimed many lives, some of them on the streets as stones fell from on high. By some miracle Zachariah had survived buried underneath debris but was then taken to the hospital to be told the news that almost no one survived. There was a lot of talk that some racist humans caused the blast since the church was known to house faunus children mostly but Zachariah didn't care about that. With his home lost and his best friend in the world thought to be dead Zachariah disappeared and tried living a quiet life on his own. The young man soon learned the world could be a messed up place and was even quicker to learn how to survive with the skewed rules of a cold world. And yet for that entire year Zachariah couldn't shake the guilt of living such a way. He knew that if Felicia were there she'd be disheartened to see him rob and fight like some common thug.
It was now at the age of seventeen that Zachariah decided to make a change in his life and after a few months travel he's finally arrived at Beacon Academy and sets off to become an honourable man and a hero to help change the world for the better one mission at a time.
█ █ ╫ I N V E N T O R Y ╫
█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Freyja & Freyr █ ▬ Zachariah's handmade swords which has a gun built in each one and they can transform into shields as well. Each sword, going at about 47 inches in total height, has it's gun mechanism hidden and covered under the guard with the weapon's shield twist toggle located at the top of the hilt for easy and quick access while having a dust chamber guarded within the weapon's handle. █Melee Form ▬ Both swords are claymore styled in their design but Freyr is dark in color of blue while Freyja is a sleek white in order to tell the difference. █Ranged Form ▬ Freyja & Freyr don't transform as apposed to unlock in order to use their gun forms, with the center of the sword splitting slightly to reveal the gun barrel, but to each sword there's is a diffrent gun. In Freyja a shotgun gun is built in the sword while in Freyer a high powered rifle is built within. █Other Form(s) ▬ While the guns are still accessible in sword form both Freyja & Freyr must completely transform to enter their shield form. After the sword splits it shifts and uses its inner components to take the shape of a large scutum shield which offers just enough room the hide a fully grown man behind. In addition, only once fully deployed, the round guard of the handle can be opened to allow a peephole and offer a guarded position to shoot from; Though a limited amount of an angle. █Ammo Type ▬ Both weapons use physical ammunition but Freyja uses shotgun ammo, such as buckshot and slugs, while Freyr uses a verify of "thirty-aught-six" rifle bullets. █Drawbacks ▬ While each sword does have their gun they are somewhat iffy on accuracy and is somewhat cumbersome; Not very well suited for close quarters combat. In addition, once the sword is transformed into a shield, or vice versa, there is a lockdown period of one post; Meaning that if shield is shifted into its sword form then it can not change back into a shield the following post.
█*NAME ▬ Paladin's Light █*AURA COLOR ▬ White █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Zachariah's dream of becoming a hero manifest itself in the form of raw energy being shaped into forms of heroic feats. The stronger he becomes the more aura he'll have to use such a gift, and the wiser he becomes the more control he'll have over his imagination of heroic expression. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ In a basic understanding of Aura flow and control Zachariah is able to channel his power onto his weapon and enhance its strike or blanket an armor of aura around his body for two strikes; His sword becoming sharper, bullets punching harder or his shield standing larger. While this is a good technique it'll stick around for A post more than what current level of Semblance being used. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to preform/take in 2 more strikes per level. (Lv 0: 1 Post duration. Lv 1: 2 Post duration. Lv 2: 3 Post duration. Lv 3: 4 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 2 Strikes. Lv 1: 4 Strikes. Lv 2: 6 Strikes. Lv 3: 8 Strikes.) █*LEVEL 1▬ With a better command of his aura Zachariah is able to imagine his power into the form of four large magical blades, about the size of a thick Zweihänder, or four magical shields, in the shape of a Scutum, which he controls telepathically. The blades and shield are strong but vanish after a single strong attack; Whether it be given or taken. His focus can control these swords or shields for up to 50 yards until he losses contact with them and the weapons or shields disappear. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to summon x2 magical objects per level. (Lv 0: 0 Post duration. Lv 1: 1 Post duration. Lv 2: 2 Post duration. Lv 3: 3 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 0 Summons. Lv 1: 2 Summons. Lv 2: 4 Summons. Lv 3: 8 Summons.) █*LEVEL 2▬ Now able to harden and compress his aura Zachariah envelops his weapon in a brilliant light which shines out violently. When used in sword form the blade shines and shoots out tons of spines (zoology) wildly to stab at whatever they hit. When used in gun form a single shoot orb of light will fire and explode out tons of the spines of light. When used in shield form the shield blinds opponents and is covered in layers upon layers of spines, like dragon scales, which highly enforce its defence while making it dangerous and capable of impaling opponents due to its spines. As Zachariah becomes stronger he will have better aim with this attack and becomes able to empower both weapons for this technique instead of using just one. (Lv 2: 355 Number of total spines. Lv 3: 710 Number of total spines.) (Lv 0: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 1: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 2: 1 Weapon(s). Lv 3: 2 Weapon(s).) █*LEVEL 3 ▬ With a mastery of his unyielding spirit Zachariah raises both of his weapons high overhead, swords pointed up to the sky, and with a mighty swing a grandiose sword of holy light crashesdown upon his enemies and devastates the battlefield; An ugly scar left upon the earth from the explosive strike. (Lv 0: 0 Excalibur. Lv 1: 0 Excalibur. Lv 2: 0 Excalibur. Lv 3: 1 Excalibur.) █*DRAWBACKS ▬ For the first level of his aura (Lv 0) Zachariah must make contact with his slash or gunshot in order for the added damage to be dealt with any miss still taking away from his strike count. For then next level (Lv 1) Zachariah can only control the summoned objects in a field up to 50 yards from Zachariah's position, but another thing is that the swords can be struck with a strong attack to destroy them before they do damage. Next level (Lv 2) is dangerous not only to the enemy but to Zachariah and his allies as well since the blast of spines fly in random directions; Only later is Zachariah able to get some control. This holds true for the gunshot version of this attack as all the spines disperse randomly and all at once. And for the last level (Lv 3) the strike is quite powerful and able to clear an entire football field but after the attack Zachariah is unable to use any form of his semblance for 4 post afterwards. If Zachariah uses it a second time he'll immediately pass out and be unable to battle.
Thanks for the spacing tip! Im not that good at coding so that helps a lot!
I changed the trait to Extra Strength. Hope this works a little better.
I added a little more detail for the Weapon training trait, and just wanna remind ya he's only a master with his own weapons.
Stake has been changed to Steak. *blushes*
Nature has been changed/updated.
Weapon forms have been fixed. just had to delete the extra stuff I obviously missed, lol.
Added the weapon's total height and weight has been added. And I figure that with his new trait one handed wielding would be okay for Zachariah.
Added a number to the spines for both levels.
As for the last one, could we talk about the attack? I know 100 yards is the length of a football field but if that's too long of a slash smash than how long would you think is appropriate?

❖❖❖Assessment❖❖❖ Hello, my name is Youroka Kage, and I'll be judging your profile today! Sorry it took so long, I had started a few days ago, but I lost internet for a day and a half and my ability to get what I had already written.
❖I'm sorry, but we don't allow white text in our profiles, however, I did the testing, and 5 of the
[list]
allows for the spacing to be the way that you want it. You would only have to close it off with 5
[/list]
For an example, open up the spoiler. ❖ Ok, so for your bonus Talent, we do not allow people to have extra aura as it makes it harder for the guild mods to moderate. ❖ Ok, what other types of weapons do you know? ❖ Stake spelled like that, if it's a wooden stake to kill a vampire while eating with potatoes. If Steak and Potatoes are good though. ^.^ ❖ For Nature, we want to know more about your character. It should be at least a paragraph. It explains things like if you are shy, or out going, how you interact with others, ect. ❖
Quote:
(1.) Three Forms- You cannot have more than 3 weapon forms unless your weapon is significantly weaker than a normal weapon. Usually you should have two major fighting forms and a storage form. We do allow exceptions depending on the power level of the weapon though. (2.) 20% Sizeshift - Please don't have your weapon or character size shifting more than 20%. It is just unrealistic. Your cellphone cannot shift into a battleaxe. Sorry.
The reason that I have quoted the rule is because with what is said, your weapons would have a sword form, a gun form, a shield form, a club form and then a dagger form. However, the second one that I quoted would not allow you to have the dagger form. You would have to keep both both swords on your back. I should mention, that any moving part of it would count as a form. ❖ Ok, after talking to our weapons expert, and me doing research on my own, I need to know how big these weapons are. I say this because the average size for a Claymore is 40 cm (55 in) according to the wiki. The other reason is that they are typically two-handed weapons. We will get back to the weapons once this question is answered. ❖Ok, onto the semblance. First thing I need to know is the over all time that you can hold the strikes. We do this in post count times. The number of posts can increase with level. ❖ Ok, so level 1. I need the over all time limit they disappear in as well. However, after consulting with some people, we agree that 4 is way too much for level 1, I suggest starting with 1, and then moving to a total of 4. 100 yards is too much for how far you can control the weapons. ❖ For level 2, I need to know how many spikes the bullets explode into. The reason I need this is because I need to determine if this is able to be dodged. ❖ I can not allow 100 yards for the size of your level 3.

So one of the reasons we quote the original profile is to keep a record of what it is as you change it. We like to see where a profile starts. We also prefer that you edit the top post first. Once your profile is judged, we will quote the entire profile again. Then that will technically be your profile, so that you have the ability to change it and we can see what has been changed. I'll judge the one that you have quoted, however, from now on, if you could make the changes in the top profile, I would appreciate it.
❖So the talent's section is for things that are ingrained into you. Training in them would go into learnt skills. I will also ask another judge about the legality of that other talent, as that is a lot of weapons. There is also the issue that you might need a separate talent to be able to wield two two-handed swords at the same time, because of how much they weigh. I do know that you changed the extra Aura to extra strength, however, it's less of the weight of the weapons, but rather the momentum that they cause, and their effects wielding the weapons at the same time would have. Another judge and I agree, it is not possible to be able to duel wield those swords, and be good at a multitude of weapons in the same skill/talent.
❖ Ok, so for the weapon, how many rounds do the gun portion of these swords hold before they have to reload?
❖ So for level one, 50 yards is still too much. I would say 30 ft or 10 yards. This can increase with time too, Also, your description of the ability still says 4 blades.
❖ So for level 2, 100 spines would be enough to almost get everyone, I can see increasing it to either 200 or 300 for level 3.
❖ Ok, for level 3, I say 100 yards is too much because a typical battle should happen within max of 30 yards. Also, this ability seems very auto-hitty, and auto-killy. This is mostly because of the fact that I don't see anyway to dodge a blast like this, other than getting out of dodge. I'd be fine with a 50-60 ft diameter max for this, unless you can convince me otherwise or explain to me the weaknesses with the level 3. What I mean by that is the weaker the skill is, the more area you can cover.
Also, if you wish, we do have a discord that you could join that we could talk more about it faster if you want to.

However, the second one that I quoted would not allow you to have the dagger form. You would have to keep both both swords on your back. I should mention, that any moving part of it would count as a form. ❖ Ok, after talking to our weapons expert, and me doing research on my own, I need to know how big these weapons are. I say this because the average size for a Claymore is 40 cm (55 in) according to the wiki. The other reason is that they are typically two-handed weapons. We will get back to the weapons once this question is answered. ❖Ok, onto the semblance. First thing I need to know is the over all time that you can hold the strikes. We do this in post count times. The number of posts can increase with level. ❖ Ok, so level 1. I need the over all time limit they disappear in as well. However, after consulting with some people, we agree that 4 is way too much for level 1, I suggest starting with 1, and then moving to a total of 4. 100 yards is too much for how far you can control the weapons. ❖ For level 2, I need to know how many spikes the bullets explode into. The reason I need this is because I need to determine if this is able to be dodged. ❖ I can not allow 100 yards for the size of your level 3.

█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ (Text) Zachariah never got to know his mother or father for he was just a baby when he was left on the doorsteps of an orphanage, but with that loss he gained a different kind of family. Zachariah grew as an orphan alongside human and faunus children at a place called Sacred Rose Orphanage, once located in the kingdom of Vale. There in that monastery of a home Zachariah was taught manners, chivalry and a love of books. He dealt with challenges of racism and poverty yet through it all it was because his faunus friend Felicia that Zachariah was able to trudge through bullies and life's bulls**t. What also helped him were the stories of hunters told to him just about every night and his eyes watching soldiers train at the near by army base. While violence was frowned upon at the orphanage Zachariah couldn't contain his want to be a hero and thus trained in secret. Zachariah couldn't keep the secret hidden for long thought since Felicia trailed him and made him promise to train her so that she wouldn't go tell on him. Zachariah knew it was her way of asking to join so he didnt mind, until the other kids later followed and found out as well.
For a time life seemed to be perfect for Zachariah. The orphan was surrounded by those who cared for him, he had a hobby others wanted to do as well and he was even given his long awaited Guilded Rose, which was an Insignia of the church as a ruby stoned rose with gold holding it all together. This rose was given to him and Felicia on their sixteenth birthday as was the special custom of the church, signifying they are learned enough to make it out in the world, but this day soon led by tragedy. Zachariah wasn't sure what happened but the was an explosion within the church and the collapse of the building claimed many lives, some of them on the streets as stones fell from on high. By some miracle Zachariah had survived buried underneath debris but was then taken to the hospital to be told the news that almost no one survived. There was a lot of talk that some racist humans caused the blast since the church was known to house faunus children mostly but Zachariah didn't care about that. With his home lost and his best friend in the world thought to be dead Zachariah disappeared and tried living a quiet life on his own. The young man soon learned the world could be a messed up place and was even quicker to learn how to survive with the skewed rules of a cold world. And yet for that entire year Zachariah couldn't shake the guilt of living such a way. He knew that if Felicia were there she'd be disheartened to see him rob and fight like some common thug.
It was now at the age of seventeen that Zachariah decided to make a change in his life and after a few months travel he's finally arrived at Beacon Academy and sets off to become an honourable man and a hero to help change the world for the better one mission at a time.
█ █ ╫ I N V E N T O R Y ╫
█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Freyja & Freyr █ ▬ Zachariah's handmade swords which has a gun built in each one and they can transform into shields as well. Each sword, going at about 44 inches in total height, has it's gun mechanism hidden and covered under the guard with the weapon's shield twist toggle located at the top of the hilt for easy and quick access while having a dust chamber guarded within the weapon's handle. █Melee Form ▬ Both swords are claymore styled in their design but Freyr is dark in color of blue while Freyja is a sleek white in order to tell the difference. █Ranged Form ▬ Freyja & Freyr don't transform as apposed to unlock in order to use their gun forms, with the center of the sword splitting slightly to reveal the gun barrel, but to each sword there's is a diffrent gun. █Other Form(s) ▬ While the guns are still accessible in sword form both Freyja & Freyr must completely transform to enter their shield form. After the sword splits it shifts and uses its inner components to take the shape of a large scutum shield which offers just enough room the hide a fully grown man behind. In addition, only once fully deployed, the round guard of the handle can be opened to allow a peephole and offer a guarded position to shoot from; Though a limited amount of an angle. █Ammo Type ▬ Both weapons use physical ammunition but Freyja uses shotgun ammo, such as buckshot and slugs, while Freyr uses a verify of "thirty-aught-six" rifle bullets. █Drawbacks ▬ While each sword does have their gun they are somewhat iffy on accuracy and is somewhat cumbersome; Not very well suited for close quarters combat. In addition, once the sword is transformed into a shield, or vice versa, there is a lockdown period of one post; Meaning that if shield is shifted into its sword form then it can not change back into a shield the following post.
█*NAME ▬ Paladin's Light █*AURA COLOR ▬ White █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Zachariah's dream of becoming a hero manifest itself in the form of raw energy being shaped into forms of heroic feats. The stronger he becomes the more aura he'll have to use such a gift, and the wiser he becomes the more control he'll have over his imagination of heroic expression. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ In a basic understanding of Aura flow and control Zachariah is able to channel his power onto his weapon and enhance its strike or blanket an armor of aura around his body for two strikes; His sword becoming sharper, bullets punching harder or his shield standing larger. While this is a good technique it'll stick around for A post more than what current level of Semblance being used. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to preform/take in 2 more strikes per level. (Lv 0: 1 Post duration. Lv 1: 2 Post duration. Lv 2: 3 Post duration. Lv 3: 4 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 2 Strikes. Lv 1: 4 Strikes. Lv 2: 6 Strikes. Lv 3: 8 Strikes.) █*LEVEL 1▬ With a better command of his aura Zachariah is able to imagine his power into the form of four large magical blades, about the size of a thick Zweihänder, or four magical shields, in the shape of a Scutum, which he controls telepathically. The blades and shield are strong but vanish after a single strong attack; Whether it be given or taken. His focus can control these swords or shields for up to 50 yards until he losses contact with them and the weapons or shields disappear. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to summon x2 magical objects per level. (Lv 0: 0 Post duration. Lv 1: 1 Post duration. Lv 2: 2 Post duration. Lv 3: 3 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 0 Summons. Lv 1: 2 Summons. Lv 2: 4 Summons. Lv 3: 8 Summons.) █*LEVEL 2▬ Now able to harden and compress his aura Zachariah envelops his weapon in a brilliant light which shines out violently. When used in sword form the blade shines and shoots out tons of spines (zoology) wildly to stab at whatever they hit. When used in gun form a single shoot orb of light will fire and explode out tons of the spines of light. When used in shield form the shield blinds opponents and is covered in layers upon layers of spines, like dragon scales, which highly enforce its defence while making it dangerous and capable of impaling opponents due to its spines. As Zachariah becomes stronger he will have better aim with this attack and becomes able to empower both weapons for this technique instead of using just one. (Lv 2: 355 Number of total spines. Lv 3: 710 Number of total spines.) (Lv 0: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 1: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 2: 1 Weapon(s). Lv 3: 2 Weapon(s).) █*LEVEL 3 ▬ With a mastery of his unyielding spirit Zachariah raises both of his weapons high overhead, swords pointed up to the sky, and with a mighty swing a grandiose sword of holy light crashesdown upon his enemies and devastates the battlefield; An ugly scar left upon the earth from the explosive strike. (Lv 0: 0 Excalibur. Lv 1: 0 Excalibur. Lv 2: 0 Excalibur. Lv 3: 1 Excalibur.) █*DRAWBACKS ▬ For the first level of his aura (Lv 0) Zachariah must make contact with his slash or gunshot in order for the added damage to be dealt with any miss still taking away from his strike count. For then next level (Lv 1) Zachariah can only control the summoned objects in a field up to 50 yards from Zachariah's position, but another thing is that the swords can be struck with a strong attack to destroy them before they do damage. Next level (Lv 2) is dangerous not only to the enemy but to Zachariah and his allies as well since the blast of spines fly in random directions; Only later is Zachariah able to get some control. This holds true for the gunshot version of this attack as all the spines disperse randomly and all at once. And for the last level (Lv 3) the strike is quite powerful and able to clear an entire football field but after the attack Zachariah is unable to use any form of his semblance for 4 post afterwards. If Zachariah uses it a second time he'll immediately pass out and be unable to battle.
Thanks for the spacing tip! Im not that good at coding so that helps a lot!
I changed the trait to Extra Strength. Hope this works a little better.
I added a little more detail for the Weapon training trait, and just wanna remind ya he's only a master with his own weapons.
Stake has been changed to Steak. *blushes*
Nature has been changed/updated.
Weapon forms have been fixed. just had to delete the extra stuff I obviously missed, lol.
Added the weapon's total height and weight has been added. And I figure that with his new trait one handed wielding would be okay for Zachariah.
Added a number to the spines for both levels.
As for the last one, could we talk about the attack? I know 100 yards is the length of a football field but if that's too long of a slash smash than how long would you think is appropriate?
So one of the reasons we quote the original profile is to keep a record of what it is as you change it. We like to see where a profile starts. We also prefer that you edit the top post first. Once your profile is judged, we will quote the entire profile again. Then that will technically be your profile, so that you have the ability to change it and we can see what has been changed. I'll judge the one that you have quoted, however, from now on, if you could make the changes in the top profile, I would appreciate it.
❖So the talent's section is for things that are ingrained into you. Training in them would go into learnt skills. I will also ask another judge about the legality of that other talent, as that is a lot of weapons. There is also the issue that you might need a separate talent to be able to wield two two-handed swords at the same time, because of how much they weigh. I do know that you changed the extra Aura to extra strength, however, it's less of the weight of the weapons, but rather the momentum that they cause, and their effects wielding the weapons at the same time would have. Another judge and I agree, it is not possible to be able to duel wield those swords, and be good at a multitude of weapons in the same skill/talent.
❖ Ok, so for the weapon, how many rounds do the gun portion of these swords hold before they have to reload?
❖ So for level one, 50 yards is still too much. I would say 30 ft or 10 yards. This can increase with time too, Also, your description of the ability still says 4 blades.
❖ So for level 2, 100 spines would be enough to almost get everyone, I can see increasing it to either 200 or 300 for level 3.
❖ Ok, for level 3, I say 100 yards is too much because a typical battle should happen within max of 30 yards. Also, this ability seems very auto-hitty, and auto-killy. This is mostly because of the fact that I don't see anyway to dodge a blast like this, other than getting out of dodge. I'd be fine with a 50-60 ft diameter max for this, unless you can convince me otherwise or explain to me the weaknesses with the level 3. What I mean by that is the weaker the skill is, the more area you can cover.
Also, if you wish, we do have a discord that you could join that we could talk more about it faster if you want to. O-oh, my bad. I'll be editing the top post from here on out.
I get what you're saying with the weapon's skill thing but it's not like he's mastered any weapons aside from his own. Basically like a jack of all trades but a master of none kind of thing, where in a contest of knife throwing there will be others much better than him.
Bullet count added in description.
Range lowered to 30 feet and description fixed.
Spines count lowered.
I was really wanting an anti-tank type of attack for larger scale grim, so with the description provided above you think that might be possible?

❖❖❖Assessment❖❖❖ Hello, my name is Youroka Kage, and I'll be judging your profile today! Sorry it took so long, I had started a few days ago, but I lost internet for a day and a half and my ability to get what I had already written.
❖I'm sorry, but we don't allow white text in our profiles, however, I did the testing, and 5 of the
[list]
allows for the spacing to be the way that you want it. You would only have to close it off with 5
[/list]
For an example, open up the spoiler. ❖ Ok, so for your bonus Talent, we do not allow people to have extra aura as it makes it harder for the guild mods to moderate. ❖ Ok, what other types of weapons do you know? ❖ Stake spelled like that, if it's a wooden stake to kill a vampire while eating with potatoes. If Steak and Potatoes are good though. ^.^ ❖ For Nature, we want to know more about your character. It should be at least a paragraph. It explains things like if you are shy, or out going, how you interact with others, ect. ❖
Quote:
(1.) Three Forms- You cannot have more than 3 weapon forms unless your weapon is significantly weaker than a normal weapon. Usually you should have two major fighting forms and a storage form. We do allow exceptions depending on the power level of the weapon though. (2.) 20% Sizeshift - Please don't have your weapon or character size shifting more than 20%. It is just unrealistic. Your cellphone cannot shift into a battleaxe. Sorry.
The reason that I have quoted the rule is because with what is said, your weapons would have a sword form, a gun form, a shield form, a club form and then a dagger form. However, the second one that I quoted would not allow you to have the dagger form. You would have to keep both both swords on your back.

We will get back to the weapons once this question is answered. ❖Ok, onto the semblance. First thing I need to know is the over all time that you can hold the strikes. We do this in post count times. The number of posts can increase with level. ❖ Ok, so level 1. I need the over all time limit they disappear in as well. However, after consulting with some people, we agree that 4 is way too much for level 1, I suggest starting with 1, and then moving to a total of 4. 100 yards is too much for how far you can control the weapons. ❖ For level 2, I need to know how many spikes the bullets explode into. The reason I need this is because I need to determine if this is able to be dodged. ❖ I can not allow 100 yards for the size of your level 3.

Lv 3: 1 Excalibur.) █*DRAWBACKS ▬ For the first level of his aura (Lv 0) Zachariah must make contact with his slash or gunshot in order for the added damage to be dealt with any miss still taking away from his strike count. For then next level (Lv 1) Zachariah can only control the summoned objects in a field up to 50 yards from Zachariah's position, but another thing is that the swords can be struck with a strong attack to destroy them before they do damage. Next level (Lv 2) is dangerous not only to the enemy but to Zachariah and his allies as well since the blast of spines fly in random directions; Only later is Zachariah able to get some control. This holds true for the gunshot version of this attack as all the spines disperse randomly and all at once. And for the last level (Lv 3) the strike is quite powerful and able to clear an entire football field but after the attack Zachariah is unable to use any form of his semblance for 4 post afterwards. If Zachariah uses it a second time he'll immediately pass out and be unable to battle.
Thanks for the spacing tip! Im not that good at coding so that helps a lot!
I changed the trait to Extra Strength. Hope this works a little better.
I added a little more detail for the Weapon training trait, and just wanna remind ya he's only a master with his own weapons.
Stake has been changed to Steak. *blushes*
Nature has been changed/updated.
Weapon forms have been fixed. just had to delete the extra stuff I obviously missed, lol.
Added the weapon's total height and weight has been added. And I figure that with his new trait one handed wielding would be okay for Zachariah.
Added a number to the spines for both levels.
As for the last one, could we talk about the attack? I know 100 yards is the length of a football field but if that's too long of a slash smash than how long would you think is appropriate?
So one of the reasons we quote the original profile is to keep a record of what it is as you change it. We like to see where a profile starts. We also prefer that you edit the top post first. Once your profile is judged, we will quote the entire profile again. Then that will technically be your profile, so that you have the ability to change it and we can see what has been changed. I'll judge the one that you have quoted, however, from now on, if you could make the changes in the top profile, I would appreciate it.
❖So the talent's section is for things that are ingrained into you. Training in them would go into learnt skills. I will also ask another judge about the legality of that other talent, as that is a lot of weapons. There is also the issue that you might need a separate talent to be able to wield two two-handed swords at the same time, because of how much they weigh. I do know that you changed the extra Aura to extra strength, however, it's less of the weight of the weapons, but rather the momentum that they cause, and their effects wielding the weapons at the same time would have. Another judge and I agree, it is not possible to be able to duel wield those swords, and be good at a multitude of weapons in the same skill/talent.
❖ Ok, so for the weapon, how many rounds do the gun portion of these swords hold before they have to reload?
❖ So for level one, 50 yards is still too much. I would say 30 ft or 10 yards. This can increase with time too, Also, your description of the ability still says 4 blades.
❖ So for level 2, 100 spines would be enough to almost get everyone, I can see increasing it to either 200 or 300 for level 3.
❖ Ok, for level 3, I say 100 yards is too much because a typical battle should happen within max of 30 yards. Also, this ability seems very auto-hitty, and auto-killy. This is mostly because of the fact that I don't see anyway to dodge a blast like this, other than getting out of dodge. I'd be fine with a 50-60 ft diameter max for this, unless you can convince me otherwise or explain to me the weaknesses with the level 3. What I mean by that is the weaker the skill is, the more area you can cover.
Also, if you wish, we do have a discord that you could join that we could talk more about it faster if you want to. O-oh, my bad. I'll be editing the top post from here on out.
I get what you're saying with the weapon's skill thing but it's not like he's mastered any weapons aside from his own. Basically like a jack of all trades but a master of none kind of thing, where in a contest of knife throwing there will be others much better than him.
Bullet count added in description.
Range lowered to 30 feet and description fixed.
Spines count lowered.
I was really wanting an anti-tank type of attack for larger scale grim, so with the description provided above you think that might be possible?
❖I understand that is what you are trying to do with the Talent, however, another judge and I agree that it does too much. You would need to spend two skills for that.
❖Ok, looking at the shield form again, it violates the
Quote:
(2.) 20% Sizeshift - Please don't have your weapon or character size shifting more than 20%. It is just unrealistic. Your cellphone cannot shift into a battleaxe. Sorry.
The reason for this is because the size of a fully grown man is about 5'10"-5'11" Which is about 70-71 inches. Which is almost doubling in size, unless both swords are used for this.
❖ This guild is mostly post count based in terms of power. Level 3, you can most likely take out a tank even with a smaller blast, as it's your post count that is applied to it. Even running your sword on it would still kill a large scale grim at that level.
❖❖❖Assessment❖❖❖ Hello, my name is Youroka Kage, and I'll be judging your profile today! Sorry it took so long, I had started a few days ago, but I lost internet for a day and a half and my ability to get what I had already written.
❖I'm sorry, but we don't allow white text in our profiles, however, I did the testing, and 5 of the
[list]
allows for the spacing to be the way that you want it. You would only have to close it off with 5
[/list]
For an example, open up the spoiler. ❖ Ok, so for your bonus Talent, we do not allow people to have extra aura as it makes it harder for the guild mods to moderate. ❖ Ok, what other types of weapons do you know? ❖ Stake spelled like that, if it's a wooden stake to kill a vampire while eating with potatoes. If Steak and Potatoes are good though. ^.^ ❖ For Nature, we want to know more about your character. It should be at least a paragraph. It explains things like if you are shy, or out going, how you interact with others, ect. ❖ The reason that I have quoted the rule is because with what is said, your weapons would have a sword form, a gun form, a shield form, a club form and then a dagger form. However, the second one that I quoted would not allow you to have the dagger form. You would have to keep both both swords on your back. I should mention, that any moving part of it would count as a form. ❖ Ok, after talking to our weapons expert, and me doing research on my own, I need to know how big these weapons are. I say this because the average size for a Claymore is 40 cm (55 in) according to the wiki. The other reason is that they are typically two-handed weapons. We will get back to the weapons once this question is answered. ❖Ok, onto the semblance. First thing I need to know is the over all time that you can hold the strikes. We do this in post count times. The number of posts can increase with level. ❖ Ok, so level 1. I need the over all time limit they disappear in as well. However, after consulting with some people, we agree that 4 is way too much for level 1, I suggest starting with 1, and then moving to a total of 4. 100 yards is too much for how far you can control the weapons. ❖ For level 2, I need to know how many spikes the bullets explode into. The reason I need this is because I need to determine if this is able to be dodged. ❖ I can not allow 100 yards for the size of your level 3.

█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ (Text) Zachariah never got to know his mother or father for he was just a baby when he was left on the doorsteps of an orphanage, but with that loss he gained a different kind of family. Zachariah grew as an orphan alongside human and faunus children at a place called Sacred Rose Orphanage, once located in the kingdom of Vale. There in that monastery of a home Zachariah was taught manners, chivalry and a love of books. He dealt with challenges of racism and poverty yet through it all it was because his faunus friend Felicia that Zachariah was able to trudge through bullies and life's bulls**t. What also helped him were the stories of hunters told to him just about every night and his eyes watching soldiers train at the near by army base. While violence was frowned upon at the orphanage Zachariah couldn't contain his want to be a hero and thus trained in secret. Zachariah couldn't keep the secret hidden for long thought since Felicia trailed him and made him promise to train her so that she wouldn't go tell on him. Zachariah knew it was her way of asking to join so he didnt mind, until the other kids later followed and found out as well.
For a time life seemed to be perfect for Zachariah. The orphan was surrounded by those who cared for him, he had a hobby others wanted to do as well and he was even given his long awaited Guilded Rose, which was an Insignia of the church as a ruby stoned rose with gold holding it all together. This rose was given to him and Felicia on their sixteenth birthday as was the special custom of the church, signifying they are learned enough to make it out in the world, but this day soon led by tragedy. Zachariah wasn't sure what happened but the was an explosion within the church and the collapse of the building claimed many lives, some of them on the streets as stones fell from on high. By some miracle Zachariah had survived buried underneath debris but was then taken to the hospital to be told the news that almost no one survived. There was a lot of talk that some racist humans caused the blast since the church was known to house faunus children mostly but Zachariah didn't care about that. With his home lost and his best friend in the world thought to be dead Zachariah disappeared and tried living a quiet life on his own. The young man soon learned the world could be a messed up place and was even quicker to learn how to survive with the skewed rules of a cold world. And yet for that entire year Zachariah couldn't shake the guilt of living such a way. He knew that if Felicia were there she'd be disheartened to see him rob and fight like some common thug.
It was now at the age of seventeen that Zachariah decided to make a change in his life and after a few months travel he's finally arrived at Beacon Academy and sets off to become an honourable man and a hero to help change the world for the better one mission at a time.
█ █ ╫ I N V E N T O R Y ╫
█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Freyja & Freyr █ ▬ Zachariah's handmade swords which has a gun built in each one and they can transform into shields as well. Each sword, going at about 44 inches in total height, has it's gun mechanism hidden and covered under the guard with the weapon's shield twist toggle located at the top of the hilt for easy and quick access while having a dust chamber guarded within the weapon's handle. █Melee Form ▬ Both swords are claymore styled in their design but Freyr is dark in color of blue while Freyja is a sleek white in order to tell the difference. █Ranged Form ▬ Freyja & Freyr don't transform as apposed to unlock in order to use their gun forms, with the center of the sword splitting slightly to reveal the gun barrel, but to each sword there's is a diffrent gun. █Other Form(s) ▬ While the guns are still accessible in sword form both Freyja & Freyr must completely transform to enter their shield form. After the sword splits it shifts and uses its inner components to take the shape of a large scutum shield which offers just enough room the hide a fully grown man behind. In addition, only once fully deployed, the round guard of the handle can be opened to allow a peephole and offer a guarded position to shoot from; Though a limited amount of an angle. █Ammo Type ▬ Both weapons use physical ammunition but Freyja uses shotgun ammo, such as buckshot and slugs, while Freyr uses a verify of "thirty-aught-six" rifle bullets. █Drawbacks ▬ While each sword does have their gun they are somewhat iffy on accuracy and is somewhat cumbersome; Not very well suited for close quarters combat. In addition, once the sword is transformed into a shield, or vice versa, there is a lockdown period of one post; Meaning that if shield is shifted into its sword form then it can not change back into a shield the following post.
█*NAME ▬ Paladin's Light █*AURA COLOR ▬ White █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Zachariah's dream of becoming a hero manifest itself in the form of raw energy being shaped into forms of heroic feats. The stronger he becomes the more aura he'll have to use such a gift, and the wiser he becomes the more control he'll have over his imagination of heroic expression. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ In a basic understanding of Aura flow and control Zachariah is able to channel his power onto his weapon and enhance its strike or blanket an armor of aura around his body for two strikes; His sword becoming sharper, bullets punching harder or his shield standing larger. While this is a good technique it'll stick around for A post more than what current level of Semblance being used. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to preform/take in 2 more strikes per level. (Lv 0: 1 Post duration. Lv 1: 2 Post duration. Lv 2: 3 Post duration. Lv 3: 4 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 2 Strikes. Lv 1: 4 Strikes. Lv 2: 6 Strikes. Lv 3: 8 Strikes.) █*LEVEL 1▬ With a better command of his aura Zachariah is able to imagine his power into the form of four large magical blades, about the size of a thick Zweihänder, or four magical shields, in the shape of a Scutum, which he controls telepathically. The blades and shield are strong but vanish after a single strong attack; Whether it be given or taken. His focus can control these swords or shields for up to 50 yards until he losses contact with them and the weapons or shields disappear. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to summon x2 magical objects per level. (Lv 0: 0 Post duration. Lv 1: 1 Post duration. Lv 2: 2 Post duration. Lv 3: 3 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 0 Summons. Lv 1: 2 Summons. Lv 2: 4 Summons. Lv 3: 8 Summons.) █*LEVEL 2▬ Now able to harden and compress his aura Zachariah envelops his weapon in a brilliant light which shines out violently. When used in sword form the blade shines and shoots out tons of spines (zoology) wildly to stab at whatever they hit. When used in gun form a single shoot orb of light will fire and explode out tons of the spines of light. When used in shield form the shield blinds opponents and is covered in layers upon layers of spines, like dragon scales, which highly enforce its defence while making it dangerous and capable of impaling opponents due to its spines. As Zachariah becomes stronger he will have better aim with this attack and becomes able to empower both weapons for this technique instead of using just one. (Lv 2: 355 Number of total spines. Lv 3: 710 Number of total spines.) (Lv 0: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 1: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 2: 1 Weapon(s). Lv 3: 2 Weapon(s).) █*LEVEL 3 ▬ With a mastery of his unyielding spirit Zachariah raises both of his weapons high overhead, swords pointed up to the sky, and with a mighty swing a grandiose sword of holy light crashesdown upon his enemies and devastates the battlefield; An ugly scar left upon the earth from the explosive strike. (Lv 0: 0 Excalibur. Lv 1: 0 Excalibur. Lv 2: 0 Excalibur. Lv 3: 1 Excalibur.) █*DRAWBACKS ▬ For the first level of his aura (Lv 0) Zachariah must make contact with his slash or gunshot in order for the added damage to be dealt with any miss still taking away from his strike count. For then next level (Lv 1) Zachariah can only control the summoned objects in a field up to 50 yards from Zachariah's position, but another thing is that the swords can be struck with a strong attack to destroy them before they do damage. Next level (Lv 2) is dangerous not only to the enemy but to Zachariah and his allies as well since the blast of spines fly in random directions; Only later is Zachariah able to get some control. This holds true for the gunshot version of this attack as all the spines disperse randomly and all at once. And for the last level (Lv 3) the strike is quite powerful and able to clear an entire football field but after the attack Zachariah is unable to use any form of his semblance for 4 post afterwards. If Zachariah uses it a second time he'll immediately pass out and be unable to battle.
Thanks for the spacing tip! Im not that good at coding so that helps a lot!
I changed the trait to Extra Strength. Hope this works a little better.
I added a little more detail for the Weapon training trait, and just wanna remind ya he's only a master with his own weapons.
Stake has been changed to Steak. *blushes*
Nature has been changed/updated.
Weapon forms have been fixed. just had to delete the extra stuff I obviously missed, lol.
Added the weapon's total height and weight has been added. And I figure that with his new trait one handed wielding would be okay for Zachariah.
Added a number to the spines for both levels.
As for the last one, could we talk about the attack? I know 100 yards is the length of a football field but if that's too long of a slash smash than how long would you think is appropriate?
So one of the reasons we quote the original profile is to keep a record of what it is as you change it. We like to see where a profile starts. We also prefer that you edit the top post first. Once your profile is judged, we will quote the entire profile again. Then that will technically be your profile, so that you have the ability to change it and we can see what has been changed.

Quote:
(2.) 20% Sizeshift - Please don't have your weapon or character size shifting more than 20%. It is just unrealistic. Your cellphone cannot shift into a battleaxe. Sorry.
The reason for this is because the size of a fully grown man is about 5'10"-5'11" Which is about 70-71 inches. Which is almost doubling in size, unless both swords are used for this.
❖ This guild is mostly post count based in terms of power. Level 3, you can most likely take out a tank even with a smaller blast, as it's your post count that is applied to it. Even running your sword on it would still kill a large scale grim at that level. Okay, so I changedeverything but... what was the semblance thing ? I forgot. sweatdrop

Zachariah grew as an orphan alongside human and faunus children at a place called Sacred Rose Orphanage, once located in the kingdom of Vale. There in that monastery of a home Zachariah was taught manners, chivalry and a love of books. He dealt with challenges of racism and poverty yet through it all it was because his faunus friend Felicia that Zachariah was able to trudge through bullies and life's bulls**t. What also helped him were the stories of hunters told to him just about every night and his eyes watching soldiers train at the near by army base. While violence was frowned upon at the orphanage Zachariah couldn't contain his want to be a hero and thus trained in secret. Zachariah couldn't keep the secret hidden for long thought since Felicia trailed him and made him promise to train her so that she wouldn't go tell on him. Zachariah knew it was her way of asking to join so he didnt mind, until the other kids later followed and found out as well.
For a time life seemed to be perfect for Zachariah. The orphan was surrounded by those who cared for him, he had a hobby others wanted to do as well and he was even given his long awaited Guilded Rose, which was an Insignia of the church as a ruby stoned rose with gold holding it all together. This rose was given to him and Felicia on their sixteenth birthday as was the special custom of the church, signifying they are learned enough to make it out in the world, but this day soon led by tragedy. Zachariah wasn't sure what happened but the was an explosion within the church and the collapse of the building claimed many lives, some of them on the streets as stones fell from on high. By some miracle Zachariah had survived buried underneath debris but was then taken to the hospital to be told the news that almost no one survived. There was a lot of talk that some racist humans caused the blast since the church was known to house faunus children mostly but Zachariah didn't care about that. With his home lost and his best friend in the world thought to be dead Zachariah disappeared and tried living a quiet life on his own. The young man soon learned the world could be a messed up place and was even quicker to learn how to survive with the skewed rules of a cold world. And yet for that entire year Zachariah couldn't shake the guilt of living such a way. He knew that if Felicia were there she'd be disheartened to see him rob and fight like some common thug.
It was now at the age of seventeen that Zachariah decided to make a change in his life and after a few months travel he's finally arrived at Beacon Academy and sets off to become an honourable man and a hero to help change the world for the better one mission at a time.
█ █ ╫ I N V E N T O R Y ╫
█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Freyja & Freyr █ ▬ Zachariah's handmade swords which has a gun built in each one and they can transform into shields as well. Each sword, going at about 44 inches in total height, has it's gun mechanism hidden and covered under the guard with the weapon's shield twist toggle located at the top of the hilt for easy and quick access while having a dust chamber guarded within the weapon's handle. █Melee Form ▬ Both swords are claymore styled in their design but Freyr is dark in color of blue while Freyja is a sleek white in order to tell the difference. █Ranged Form ▬ Freyja & Freyr don't transform as apposed to unlock in order to use their gun forms, with the center of the sword splitting slightly to reveal the gun barrel, but to each sword there's is a diffrent gun. █Other Form(s) ▬ While the guns are still accessible in sword form both Freyja & Freyr must completely transform to enter their shield form. After the sword splits it shifts and uses its inner components to take the shape of a large scutum shield which offers just enough room the hide a fully grown man behind. In addition, only once fully deployed, the round guard of the handle can be opened to allow a peephole and offer a guarded position to shoot from; Though a limited amount of an angle. █Ammo Type ▬ Both weapons use physical ammunition but Freyja uses shotgun ammo, such as buckshot and slugs, while Freyr uses a verify of "thirty-aught-six" rifle bullets. █Drawbacks ▬ While each sword does have their gun they are somewhat iffy on accuracy and is somewhat cumbersome; Not very well suited for close quarters combat. In addition, once the sword is transformed into a shield, or vice versa, there is a lockdown period of one post; Meaning that if shield is shifted into its sword form then it can not change back into a shield the following post.
█*NAME ▬ Paladin's Light █*AURA COLOR ▬ White █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Zachariah's dream of becoming a hero manifest itself in the form of raw energy being shaped into forms of heroic feats. The stronger he becomes the more aura he'll have to use such a gift, and the wiser he becomes the more control he'll have over his imagination of heroic expression. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ In a basic understanding of Aura flow and control Zachariah is able to channel his power onto his weapon and enhance its strike or blanket an armor of aura around his body for two strikes; His sword becoming sharper, bullets punching harder or his shield standing larger. While this is a good technique it'll stick around for A post more than what current level of Semblance being used. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to preform/take in 2 more strikes per level. (Lv 0: 1 Post duration. Lv 1: 2 Post duration. Lv 2: 3 Post duration. Lv 3: 4 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 2 Strikes. Lv 1: 4 Strikes. Lv 2: 6 Strikes. Lv 3: 8 Strikes.) █*LEVEL 1▬ With a better command of his aura Zachariah is able to imagine his power into the form of four large magical blades, about the size of a thick Zweihänder, or four magical shields, in the shape of a Scutum, which he controls telepathically. The blades and shield are strong but vanish after a single strong attack; Whether it be given or taken. His focus can control these swords or shields for up to 50 yards until he losses contact with them and the weapons or shields disappear. As Zachariah becomes stronger he becomes able to summon x2 magical objects per level. (Lv 0: 0 Post duration. Lv 1: 1 Post duration. Lv 2: 2 Post duration. Lv 3: 3 Post duration.) (Lv 0: 0 Summons. Lv 1: 2 Summons. Lv 2: 4 Summons. Lv 3: 8 Summons.) █*LEVEL 2▬ Now able to harden and compress his aura Zachariah envelops his weapon in a brilliant light which shines out violently. When used in sword form the blade shines and shoots out tons of spines (zoology) wildly to stab at whatever they hit. When used in gun form a single shoot orb of light will fire and explode out tons of the spines of light. When used in shield form the shield blinds opponents and is covered in layers upon layers of spines, like dragon scales, which highly enforce its defence while making it dangerous and capable of impaling opponents due to its spines. As Zachariah becomes stronger he will have better aim with this attack and becomes able to empower both weapons for this technique instead of using just one. (Lv 2: 355 Number of total spines. Lv 3: 710 Number of total spines.) (Lv 0: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 1: 0 Weapon(s). Lv 2: 1 Weapon(s). Lv 3: 2 Weapon(s).) █*LEVEL 3 ▬ With a mastery of his unyielding spirit Zachariah raises both of his weapons high overhead, swords pointed up to the sky, and with a mighty swing a grandiose sword of holy light crashesdown upon his enemies and devastates the battlefield; An ugly scar left upon the earth from the explosive strike. (Lv 0: 0 Excalibur. Lv 1: 0 Excalibur. Lv 2: 0 Excalibur. Lv 3: 1 Excalibur.) █*DRAWBACKS ▬ For the first level of his aura (Lv 0) Zachariah must make contact with his slash or gunshot in order for the added damage to be dealt with any miss still taking away from his strike count. For then next level (Lv 1) Zachariah can only control the summoned objects in a field up to 50 yards from Zachariah's position, but another thing is that the swords can be struck with a strong attack to destroy them before they do damage. Next level (Lv 2) is dangerous not only to the enemy but to Zachariah and his allies as well since the blast of spines fly in random directions; Only later is Zachariah able to get some control. This holds true for the gunshot version of this attack as all the spines disperse randomly and all at once. And for the last level (Lv 3) the strike is quite powerful and able to clear an entire football field but after the attack Zachariah is unable to use any form of his semblance for 4 post afterwards. If Zachariah uses it a second time he'll immediately pass out and be unable to battle.
Thanks for the spacing tip! Im not that good at coding so that helps a lot!
I changed the trait to Extra Strength. Hope this works a little better.
I added a little more detail for the Weapon training trait, and just wanna remind ya he's only a master with his own weapons.
Stake has been changed to Steak. *blushes*
Nature has been changed/updated.
Weapon forms have been fixed. just had to delete the extra stuff I obviously missed, lol.
Added the weapon's total height and weight has been added. And I figure that with his new trait one handed wielding would be okay for Zachariah.
Added a number to the spines for both levels.
As for the last one, could we talk about the attack? I know 100 yards is the length of a football field but if that's too long of a slash smash than how long would you think is appropriate?
So one of the reasons we quote the original profile is to keep a record of what it is as you change it. We like to see where a profile starts. We also prefer that you edit the top post first. Once your profile is judged, we will quote the entire profile again. Then that will technically be your profile, so that you have the ability to change it and we can see what has been changed. I'll judge the one that you have quoted, however, from now on, if you could make the changes in the top profile, I would appreciate it.
❖So the talent's section is for things that are ingrained into you. Training in them would go into learnt skills. I will also ask another judge about the legality of that other talent, as that is a lot of weapons. There is also the issue that you might need a separate talent to be able to wield two two-handed swords at the same time, because of how much they weigh. I do know that you changed the extra Aura to extra strength, however, it's less of the weight of the weapons, but rather the momentum that they cause, and their effects wielding the weapons at the same time would have. Another judge and I agree, it is not possible to be able to duel wield those swords, and be good at a multitude of weapons in the same skill/talent.
❖ Ok, so for the weapon, how many rounds do the gun portion of these swords hold before they have to reload?
❖ So for level one, 50 yards is still too much. I would say 30 ft or 10 yards. This can increase with time too, Also, your description of the ability still says 4 blades.
❖ So for level 2, 100 spines would be enough to almost get everyone, I can see increasing it to either 200 or 300 for level 3.
❖ Ok, for level 3, I say 100 yards is too much because a typical battle should happen within max of 30 yards. Also, this ability seems very auto-hitty, and auto-killy. This is mostly because of the fact that I don't see anyway to dodge a blast like this, other than getting out of dodge. I'd be fine with a 50-60 ft diameter max for this, unless you can convince me otherwise or explain to me the weaknesses with the level 3. What I mean by that is the weaker the skill is, the more area you can cover.
Also, if you wish, we do have a discord that you could join that we could talk more about it faster if you want to. O-oh, my bad. I'll be editing the top post from here on out.
I get what you're saying with the weapon's skill thing but it's not like he's mastered any weapons aside from his own. Basically like a jack of all trades but a master of none kind of thing, where in a contest of knife throwing there will be others much better than him.
Bullet count added in description.
Range lowered to 30 feet and description fixed.
Spines count lowered.
I was really wanting an anti-tank type of attack for larger scale grim, so with the description provided above you think that might be possible?
❖I understand that is what you are trying to do with the Talent, however, another judge and I agree that it does too much. You would need to spend two skills for that.

Quote:
(2.) 20% Sizeshift - Please don't have your weapon or character size shifting more than 20%. It is just unrealistic. Your cellphone cannot shift into a battleaxe. Sorry.
The reason for this is because the size of a fully grown man is about 5'10"-5'11" Which is about 70-71 inches. Which is almost doubling in size, unless both swords are used for this.
❖ This guild is mostly post count based in terms of power. Level 3, you can most likely take out a tank even with a smaller blast, as it's your post count that is applied to it. Even running your sword on it would still kill a large scale grim at that level. Skills/Talents have been changed. I took out weapon's training to add Dual wielding.
Weapon has been changed. I fixed the shield size issue.
Lv3 Sembalance changed to the diameter as you suggested.
gonk I can't believe I forgot about this for this long! I'm so sorry everyone! So just before I edit my official profile up above I thought to share an edited version in the spoiler below. [Lord Hedo as Zechariah de La Vallière]

His troubled past has taught him skills that seem more suitable for a rogue yet he's used them to actually help in times of need.

Haha, no need to be sorry for that! You've seen the earth go around the sun once more, it's totally time to bust out the party poppers and get down~! (speaking of which, happy belated birthday!) 🎊
So I've added the limit of daily uses for each technique in the drawback section of the aura thing but is that more or less what you wanted?

So I've added the limit of daily uses for each technique in the drawback section of the aura thing but is that more or less what you wanted?
Yes, that was what I as asking for, but how many posts before he can use it again? We are almost done.
Also, thank you so much!

I am so sorry for not getting back to you in a timely fashion. I had a birthday this week, so I have been Celebrating, on top of some other stuff. I am so sorry.

De nada! ;D
I edited the Drawbacks section for each technique. Hope it works.

I think that one post between your posts is not enough. I will say this amount can decrease at later levels, however, you will be starting at level 0, and that allows you over 12 posts to use all of it.
