█ █ ╫ A R C H E T Y P E ╫
█NATURAL ABILITIES █Primary Talent ▬ Strength Above All: Julin Kristor, despite his lanky appearance, houses powerful strength inside. Capable of lifting up to 1000 lbs deadlift style. █Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Demon's Endurance: His skin and Muscles have been through so much, when in combat his aura has helped defined them to the point he can physically block a blade in bare clothes with aura and remain standing where he is without being knocked back. (Anyone who has the Strength Primary Talent however can push him back slightly. Strength in the Bonus Talent or below does not knock him back.) █Other Talents ▬ Heavy Armor Specialization: He is not encumbured when he dons on heavy suits of plate armor, that is to say he is not slowed down by the weight of the armor. This does not grant him flexibility. ▬Greatsword Specialization: Whenever he wields a greatsword, he knows how to use it at an exceedingly high prowess, known to stop mid-swing and feint into new attacks. █LEARNT ABILITIES █Strongest Skill ▬ Demonic Stamina: With his entire life spent on swinging a greatsword around and hunting down people along with his time spent in plate armor; Julin's body acclimated to the strain and stress, granting him an increased stamina to keep fighting and moving. █Weakest Skill ▬ Ranged Combat: Julin has no options and no formal training for ranged combat. █Other Skills ▬ Move Cancellation: Julin's greatsword isn't the only one he can stop mid attack. He is capable of stopping any attacks of his on a dime and moving into another attack instead, feinting more believably than those who aren't trained in feinting. Another term for this skill name is Muscle Control. ▬Blade-in-Hand Style: Julin is capable of fighting hand-to-hand combat. Combined with his greatsword specialization talent, makes him adept at fighting with both. Because of this, he has developed his own basic fighting style of mixing attacks with his body limbs and with his greatsword. (i.e. Even if an enemy blocks his greatsword, nothing is stopping him from removing a hand from his sword and punching with it.) With this, he is also able to use his greatsword one-handedly. ▬Mental Fortitude: He is wise enough to think on the fly, being adaptable in combat tactics and never letting his guard down. █LIKES █ ▬ Smithing and Improving(Namely watching others do it as he has no talents in this whatsoever) █ ▬ His Contractors █ ▬ Stale Bread █ ▬ His Greatsword █ ▬ .....Cats █DISLIKES █ ▬ His Targets █ ▬ Spaghetti █ ▬ Shields █ ▬ Boars █ ▬ Killing the One He loves. █PERSONALITY TRAITS █Nature ▬ Julin's personality is moreso undetectable while he is in the armor. However, if he is to remove the armor, he seems very reasonable. But he isn't one to back down from a challenge and as such, will fight foes quickly. He is brash, but very well trained and can stand his own. His cool-headed demeanor helps to hide what he knows is wrong. █Vernacular ▬ Julin speaks mostly in a monotonous tone when he talks business, but his voice is rather soft spoken when he isn't in the line of work. █Positive Traits ▬ When he isn't on the clock, he's kind, gentle, and overall tries to be a sweetheart. He is very hard █Negative Traits ▬ When he is on the work however, he is soulless until the job is done and will mostly be angry with anyone who stands in his way.

█BACKGROUND ▬ Living in Vacuo, Julin was a prodigy child in the making, growing up with immeasureable strength as his parents saw they had something special. He had to live his live with his family as they travelled from place to place to help get him to Shade Academy yet his family learned one thing that Julin knew all his life. Academically, he wasn't strong and would always fail every writing portion and intelligence test given to him from each small up to the big school. Shade never accepted a boy like him despite his incredible athletic career and durability. So his parents tried to promise him everything they could, the life of complancy, as he saw it, made him realize that while he wasn't smart, the world wasn't the black and white society that his parents had tought into him over his growing life. By the time he was 14, him and his mother had to leave after another grimm attack during the industrialization period had destroyed another town of Vacuo and it was then that he was given his Father's greatsword. A weapon he had never seen his father use but only carry around, his father could never draw it from the scabbard and only used it to use the very scabbard. Julin slowly began to realize something as he and his mother were walking with another band of Vacuo's nomadic people and with that grimm realization, he confided in his mother as they were settling down for another night to build a new settlement. He spoke with her privately and told her he would have to leave as the attacks were following him and his family. He wanted to do it for the safety of his mother and because they instilled in him a passionate drive to protect what cannot be protected, he knew he could fight off grimm and run. But what he failed to realize, was that it wasn't him. When he bid his mother farewell to try and become a leading source for the Grimm to follow, it wasn't him at all. He was just a young boy who had to learn what happened to his mother when he was 16. He had met up with another nomadic tribe in search of food and drink and as he was fed, he was told about the tribe leader his mother was following and what had occured. Enraged and at a total loss for words, Julin became empty..... his eyes seeing nothing but his mother's smiling visage as she told him farewell and in a fit of unrestrained anger, he went out into the wastes of the desert, away from the safe oasis. He grabbed ahold of his father's sword and scabbard as he had trained with it for only two years on survival and evading grimm. His rage was too much and as he began to scream in anguish, striking the trees, did he awaken his aura. From the very awakening of his aura, he heard one word and spoke it by accident in repeating for confirmation. The scabbard came loose as he reared it up to swing and cut through a tree, cleaving the blade through as he looked in shock. He had realized what he had done and when the tribesfolk did as well, they spoke to him. They had an ulterior motive for someone with such unrestrained power with a blade they had and spouted nonsense. He would become a weapon that was used and abused by corrupted tribes to gain more territory. While he followed what he believed to be just, it took him killing the third tribe leader that he realized he wasn't in the path his mother put him on. Horrified, he turned on his leader, and when he was 18, he had beheaded the Tribes leader and was now on the run. He was tired of being used as a weapon, but slowly his mind began to adapt to the fact that it was easy.... He was washing himself up when he was discovered by a wandering group of Shade Academy students, who were sent out to investigate the tribe's killing and to find the man known as the Butcher. Confused upon seeing them, they looked upon his body to see the multitudes of impalements he had suffered. Spears had been through his body many times yet avoided vital body parts.
When asked, he spoke truthfully but explained his reasonings to the group, who doubted him for the time being as they arrested him and brought him to the Shade Academy headmaster for direction of what to do. There, Julin looked at the headmaster who asked him, only to receive the same answer. The Headmaster then welcomed Julin to Shade and told him they would remove his charges if he were to help them in grimm slaying. The one time he got to the dream of his parents, he smiled and accepted. Yet his smile wouldn't last long as he was taken in for 2 years before Vacuo was invaded by Grimm. To save every last student they could get, they were shipping them all to Vale via as many airships as possible and when Julin was in the last one him and his crew were sent flying off. He was still new to the school, no where close to graduating due to his intelligence not being that good. He had grown a bit wiser but it all came crashing down when a Lancer attacked their ship. Julin watched as they were spiraling down just outside the outskirts of Vale. The next thing he remembered was.... nothing. He was taken from the ship as the rest of his crew were diagnosed dead on the spot and brought to a nearby medical facility. They knew not what happened to Julin and his team, but those few that managed to flee here, had told what happened to Beacon's headmaster. Julin was in a coma for 10 years, his weapon kept away from him the entire time. When Julin awoke, he awoke in a panic and began to tear himself free, struggling to move at first till his mind reminded him of Aura. He got himself his dirty clothing from his crash as he searched for his sword, finding it in a closet. He had no real recollection as to what had happened, now-a-days he only remembers his name, who he was growing to be by his parents, his butchering of many people, and the sorrow he feels from the unknown. He left the hospital into the strange new world and ran off with whatever he had left only to be stopped by an unknown organization. He was brought in and for 6 years he has been working as a mercenary, doing random tasks asked of him from helping people at random to coldly killing those whom he was told to target. His work had earned him a suit of platemail armor to help disguise his true appearance. Employer's looking to hire him always ask for the Living Armor instead of him by name.
█ █ ╫ I N V E N T O R Y ╫
█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Blood of Yore █ ▬ A powerful sword from Vacuo, forged to only be used by the man who knows the key words and how to channel it via aura. █Melee Form ▬ The only part of this weapon that doesn't collapse, there is a greatsword that only unlocks itself from the scabbard to the wielder who knows the lost Keyword in Aura: 'Yore'. The Blade has two forms, Oakeshott Subtype XVII for exceeding power in thrusting and crushing, and Zweihänder for cutting. It's changes are subtle to the untrained eye, but when the Keywords: Shot and Zwei are spoke, the blade itself shifts from a singular double-edged straight blade(Zwei) into a wide-based narrow tip double edged thrusting greatsword(Shot). The handguard of the blade is curved around to form a crescent hilt with the handle always long enough for two hands. The pommel is fitted to be a crown pommel. In Oakeshott Mode: The Blade's length is 6.5 Ft In Zweihänder Mode: The Blade's Length is 7 Ft. █Ranged Form ▬ Whenever in the Oakeshott Subtype XVII mode, the narrow point can be used to channel dust into a short ranged cutting arrow(Reaches up to 3 meters away from the initial thrust.) 3 thrusts per dust. █Other Form(s) ▬ None █Ammo Type ▬ Dust █ ▬ Other than the 3 meters of range, it is exceedingly unable to proficiently fight at long range. Can only transform via spoken words. Cannot transform twice in one post. It can only use Dust with thrusting attacks in Oakeshott mode. It takes a post to reload any spent dust into the Oakeshott blade's Fuller, however any reloads leaves the weapon unprotected without aura as the Aura is what holds the dust to the blade itself.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ Dagger(Blade length of 8 inches) █ ▬ █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ Scroll █ ▬ Heavy Platemail Armor █ ▬ A Bag of Feathers(Namely to be used to cover it in the blood of killed targets for confirming kills.)
█ █ ╫ S E M B L A N C E ╫
█*NAME ▬ Unyielding Will █*AURA COLOR ▬ Hellish Mix of Red and Black █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Julin can manifest his aura and his will into a focused state of aura, creating a near impenetrable shell that varies depending on the mastery he achieves. As he grows stronger, he can use each of the masteries more effectively and seperately. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Novice: Perfected Parry: Julin can focus is aura into a limb of his without creating a shine and can hold it there for one post. Any attack melee attack that would dare strike him would instead be repelled effortlessly, regardless of strength, and open the enemy up for a counter attack from Julin. He cannot Riposte with his Greatsword however. He can only use this ability once every 8 posts. █*LEVEL 1▬ Intermediate: Castle Walls: Julin can cross his arms together and generate a more body sized shield, standing still. He creates a small barrier before him, capable of lasting up to 2 posts and can block projectiles. The wall itself appears in the same post upon use. He cannot riposte at all in this state. He can use this once every 8 posts. █*LEVEL 2▬ Advanced: Royal Phalanx: Julin's ability of defense becomes stronger, reducing the cool down for his Novice ability by 1. He can now generate a proper barrier around himself and others, reaching up to 5 meters away. The barrier can only last for 3 posts and negates all attacks to and from the barrier. Julin is free to move inside the barrier but if he leaves the set Barrier range, it drops the barrier. He can only use this once every 8 posts. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ Master: Dreadnaught's Guard: At this point, Julin can generate a perfect aura shield around himself while maintaining mobility. His ability becomes more focused and for up to 5 posts at a time, his entire body is coated with his perfect defense of the Novice skill. He is capable of attacking still by controlling which areas are protected. While all of his body is protected, he cannot harm anyone. Once the 5 posts are up, he must wait 10 posts to use it again. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ Novice and Master Abilities cannot Defend against any Projectile/Ranged attack. ▬ When he is using the Intermediate Ability he is unable to move at all. ▬ If Novice is used but no melee attacks are made, he ends up wasting the skill. ▬ This quickly shifts all his aura when activated, so while his skill is active, any unprotected part of his body is considered without aura. ▬ While using the Dreadnaught's Guard state, he has to remove the Guard aura coating his weapon and his limbs to attack. While the weapon is still considered to have aura around it, his limbs can still be struck as if they were not protected by aura. ▬ With the Exception of Advanced, all of Julin's Semblance abilities are only able to be used upon himself. This is because Advanced is a wide barrier rather than body protection.

Hello Dane! I hope you are doing well and shall be your judge today ^^
*Optional edits/Curiosities*
• Please add a dash "▬" before your other Talents/Skills so they are easier to pinpoint. • █ Other Skills ▬ Move Cancellation - This is basically muscle/movement control, correct? • More curious: What's with the Item: bag of Feathers?
*Must Edits/Clarifications*
• █ Other Talents ▬ Heavy Armor Specialization: He is not encumbered when he dons on heavy suits of plate armor and is strangely not limited by their normal restrictions. ○ As this requires being put on and is in parts, I believe it should still take a certain amount of time to don. ○ The wording at this moment implies that he can be flexible in heavy armor which is not doable, so please fix it. • Weakest Skill: This is fine as long as you know you can't say "Julin knows such and such's battlefield maneuver they are going for and can counter it." • █ Other Skills ▬ Blade-in-Hand Style: please clarify as the way it's worded made me think it was two skills in one rather than making reference to your other skills and/or talents. • █ Other Talents ▬ Mental Fortitude: Contradicts your Weakest skill b/c it doesn't matter that he's not intelligent to know combat tactics, therefore it makes weakest skill unexploited. Please fix/change. • Denied: █ Strongest Skill ▬ Reactionary Agility: Even in his full-set of armor and wielding such a heavy weapon, Julin's reaction time is almost on par with a super human from how much he's trained. He is capable of reacting and moving at such a high quality that he has been known to actively dodge and/or block semi-automatic rifle fire. • Background ○ What tribes do you speak of? Who are you connecting to? Please be specific. • Primary Weapon ○ If it is activated by a keyword, there's no point in stating that it can Only be used by Julin as technically if someone were to learn the word it could be used by said activator. Unless it's specifically activated by a bio-key (blood, saliva, etc) that specifies to his family? • Semblance: ○ I shall address this after initial changes have been made.

Capable of lifting up to 1000 lbs deadlift style. █Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Demon's Endurance: His skin and Muscles have been through so much, when in combat his aura has helped defined them to the point he can physically block a blade in bare clothes with aura and remain standing where he is without being knocked back. (Anyone who has the Strength Primary Talent however can push him back slightly. Strength in the Bonus Talent or below does not knock him back.) █Other Talents ▬ Heavy Armor Specialization: He is not encumbured when he dons on heavy suits of plate armor, that is to say he is not slowed down by the weight of the armor. This does not grant him flexibility. ▬Greatsword Specialization: Whenever he wields a greatsword, he knows how to use it at an exceedingly high prowess, known to stop mid-swing and feint into new attacks. █LEARNT ABILITIES █Strongest Skill ▬ Demonic Stamina: With his entire life spent on swinging a greatsword around and hunting down people along with his time spent in plate armor; Julin's body acclimated to the strain and stress, granting him an increased stamina to keep fighting and moving. █Weakest Skill ▬ Ranged Combat: Julin has no options and no formal training for ranged combat. █Other Skills ▬ Move Cancellation: Julin's greatsword isn't the only one he can stop mid attack. He is capable of stopping any attacks of his on a dime and moving into another attack instead, feinting more believably than those who aren't trained in feinting. Another term for this skill name is Muscle Control. ▬Blade-in-Hand Style: Julin is capable of fighting hand-to-hand combat. Combined with his greatsword specialization talent, makes him adept at fighting with both. Because of this, he has developed his own basic fighting style of mixing attacks with his body limbs and with his greatsword. (i.e. Even if an enemy blocks his greatsword, nothing is stopping him from removing a hand from his sword and punching with it.) With this, he is also able to use his greatsword one-handedly. ▬Mental Fortitude: He is wise enough to think on the fly, being adaptable in combat tactics and never letting his guard down. █LIKES █ ▬ Smithing and Improving █ ▬ His Contractors █ ▬ Stale Bread █ ▬ His Greatsword █ ▬ .....Cats █DISLIKES █ ▬ His Targets █ ▬ Spaghetti █ ▬ Shields █ ▬ Boars █ ▬ Killing the One He loves. █PERSONALITY TRAITS █Nature ▬ Julin's personality is moreso undetectable while he is in the armor. However, if he is to remove the armor, he seems very reasonable. But he isn't one to back down from a challenge and as such, will fight foes quickly. He is brash, but very well trained and can stand his own. His cool-headed demeanor helps to hide what he knows is wrong. █Vernacular ▬ Julin speaks mostly in a monotonous tone when he talks business, but his voice is rather soft spoken when he isn't in the line of work. █Positive Traits ▬ When he isn't on the clock, he's kind, gentle, and overall tries to be a sweetheart. He is very hard █Negative Traits ▬ When he is on the work however, he is soulless until the job is done and will mostly be angry with anyone who stands in his way.

█BACKGROUND ▬ Living in Vacuo, Julin was a prodigy child in the making, growing up with immeasureable strength as his parents saw they had something special. He had to live his live with his family as they travelled from place to place to help get him to Shade Academy yet his family learned one thing that Julin knew all his life. Academically, he wasn't strong and would always fail every writing portion and intelligence test given to him from each small up to the big school. Shade never accepted a boy like him despite his incredible athletic career and durability. So his parents tried to promise him everything they could, the life of complancy, as he saw it, made him realize that while he wasn't smart, the world wasn't the black and white society that his parents had tought into him over his growing life. By the time he was 14, him and his mother had to leave after another grimm attack during the industrialization period had destroyed another town of Vacuo and it was then that he was given his Father's greatsword. A weapon he had never seen his father use but only carry around, his father could never draw it from the scabbard and only used it to use the very scabbard. Julin slowly began to realize something as he and his mother were walking with another band of Vacuo's nomadic people and with that grimm realization, he confided in his mother as they were settling down for another night to build a new settlement. He spoke with her privately and told her he would have to leave as the attacks were following him and his family. He wanted to do it for the safety of his mother and because they instilled in him a passionate drive to protect what cannot be protected, he knew he could fight off grimm and run. But what he failed to realize, was that it wasn't him. When he bid his mother farewell to try and become a leading source for the Grimm to follow, it wasn't him at all. He was just a young boy who had to learn what happened to his mother when he was 16. He had met up with another nomadic tribe in search of food and drink and as he was fed, he was told about the tribe leader his mother was following and what had occured. Enraged and at a total loss for words, Julin became empty..... his eyes seeing nothing but his mother's smiling visage as she told him farewell and in a fit of unrestrained anger, he went out into the woods. He grabbed ahold of his father's sword and scabbard as he had trained with it for only two years on survival and evading grimm. His rage was too much and as he began to scream in anguish, striking the trees, did he awaken his aura. From the very awakening of his aura, he heard one word and spoke it by accident in repeating for confirmation. The scabbard came loose as he reared it up to swing and cut through a tree, cleaving the blade through as he looked in shock. He had realized what he had done and when the tribesfolk did as well, they spoke to him. They had an ulterior motive for someone with such unrestrained power with a blade they had and spouted nonsense. He would become a weapon that was used and abused by corrupted tribes to gain more territory. While he followed what he believed to be just, it took him killing the third tribe leader that he realized he wasn't in the path his mother put him on. Horrified, he turned on his leader, and when he was 18, he had beheaded the Tribes leader and was now on the run. He was tired of being used as a weapon, but slowly his mind began to adapt to the fact that it was easy.... He was washing himself up when he was discovered by a wandering group of Shade Academy students, who were sent out to investigate the tribe's killing and to find the man known as the Butcher. Confused upon seeing them, they looked upon his body to see the multitudes of impalements he had suffered. Spears had been through his body many times yet avoided vital body parts.
When asked, he spoke truthfully but explained his reasonings to the group, who doubted him for the time being as they arrested him and brought him to the Shade Academy headmaster for direction of what to do. There, Julin looked at the headmaster who asked him, only to receive the same answer. The Headmaster then welcomed Julin to Shade and told him they would remove his charges if he were to help them in grimm slaying. The one time he got to the dream of his parents, he smiled and accepted. Yet his smile wouldn't last long as he was taken in for 2 years before Vacuo was invaded by Grimm. To save every last student they could get, they were shipping them all to Vale via as many airships as possible and when Julin was in the last one him and his crew were sent flying off. He was still new to the school, no where close to graduating due to his intelligence not being that good. He had grown a bit wiser but it all came crashing down when a Lancer attacked their ship. Julin watched as they were spiraling down just outside the outskirts of Vale. The next thing he remembered was.... nothing. He was taken from the ship as the rest of his crew were diagnosed dead on the spot and brought to a nearby medical facility. They knew not what happened to Julin and his team, but those few that managed to flee here, had told what happened to Beacon's headmaster. Julin was in a coma for 10 years, his weapon kept away from him the entire time. When Julin awoke, he awoke in a panic and began to tear himself free, struggling to move at first till his mind reminded him of Aura. He got himself his dirty clothing from his crash as he searched for his sword, finding it in a closet. He had no real recollection as to what had happened, now-a-days he only remembers his name, who he was growing to be by his parents, his butchering of many people, and the sorrow he feels from the unknown. He left the hospital into the strange new world and ran off with whatever he had left only to be stopped by an unknown organization. He was brought in and for 6 years he has been working as a mercenary, doing random tasks asked of him from helping people at random to coldly killing those whom he was told to target. His work had earned him a suit of platemail armor to help disguise his true appearance. Employer's looking to hire him always ask for the Living Armor instead of him by name.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Blood of Yore █ ▬ A powerful sword from Vacuo, forged to only be used by the man who knows the key words and how to channel it via aura. █Melee Form ▬ The only part of this weapon that doesn't collapse, there is a greatsword that only unlocks itself from the scabbard to the wielder who knows the lost Keyword in Aura: 'Yore'. The Blade has two forms, Oakeshott Subtype XVII for exceeding power in thrusting and crushing, and Zweihänder for cutting. It's changes are subtle to the untrained eye, but when the Keywords: Shot and Zwei are spoke, the blade itself shifts from a singular double-edged straight blade(Zwei) into a wide-based narrow tip double edged thrusting greatsword(Shot). The handguard of the blade is curved around to form a crescent hilt with the handle always long enough for two hands. The pommel is fitted to be a crown pommel. In Oakeshott Mode: The Blade's length is 6.5 Ft In Zweihänder Mode: The Blade's Length is 7 Ft. █Ranged Form ▬ Whenever in the Oakeshott Subtype XVII mode, the narrow point can be used to channel dust into a short ranged cutting arrow(Reaches up to 3 meters away from the initial thrust.) 3 thrusts per dust. █Other Form(s) ▬ None █Ammo Type ▬ Dust █ ▬ Other than the 3 meters of range, it is exceedingly unable to proficiently fight at long range. Can only transform via spoken words. Cannot transform twice in one post. It can only use Dust with thrusting attacks in Oakeshott mode.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ Dagger █ ▬ █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ Scroll █ ▬ Heavy Platemail Armor █ ▬ A Bag of Feathers(Namely to be used to cover it in the blood of killed targets for confirming kills.)

█*NAME ▬ Unyielding Will █*AURA COLOR ▬ Hellish Mix of Red and Black █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Julin can manifest his aura and his will into a focused state of aura, creating a near impenetrable shell that varies depending on the mastery he achieves. As he grows stronger, he can use each of the masteries more effectively and seperately. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Novice: Perfected Parry: Julin can focus is aura into a limb of his without creating a shine and can hold it there for one post. Any attack melee attack that would dare strike him would instead be repelled effortlessly, regardless of strength, and open the enemy up for a counter attack from Julin. He cannot Riposte with his Greatsword however. He can only use this ability once every 8 posts. █*LEVEL 1▬ Intermediate: Castle Walls: Julin can cross his arms together and generate a more body sized shield, standing still. He creates a small barrier before him, capable of lasting up to 2 posts and can block projectiles. He cannot riposte at all in this state. He can use this once every 6 posts. █*LEVEL 2▬ Advanced: Royal Phalanx: Julin's ability of defense becomes stronger, reducing the cool down for his Novice ability by 1. He can now generate a proper barrier around himself and others, reaching up to 5 meters away. The barrier can only last for 3 posts and negates all attacks to and from the barrier. Julin is free to move inside the barrier but if he leaves the set Barrier range, it drops the barrier. He can only use this once every 8 posts. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ Master: Dreadnaught's Guard: At this point, Julin can generate a perfect aura shield around himself while maintaining mobility. His ability becomes more focused and for up to 5 posts at a time, his entire body is coated with his perfect defense of the Novice skill. He is capable of attacking still by controlling which areas are protected. While all of his body is protected, he cannot harm anyone. Once the 5 posts are up, he must wait 15 posts to use it again. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ Novice and Master Abilities cannot Defend against any Projectile/Ranged attack. When he is using the Intermediate Ability he is unable to move at all. If Novice is used but no melee attacks are made, he ends up wasting the skill. This quickly shifts all his aura when activated, so while his skill is active, any unprotected part of his body is considered without aura. While using the Dreadnaught's Guard state, he has to remove the Guard aura coating his weapon and his limbs to attack. While the weapon is still considered to have aura around it, his limbs can still be struck as if they were not protected by aura.

*Optional edits/Curiosities*
• I will say, Vacuo is widely a desert country/Kingdom, and although forests can be made in them, I will state that I don't agree unless you change it to oasis which might fit better. • █ *DRAWBACKS: Please add "▬" to each one listed in Semblance.
*Must Edits/Clarifications*
• Primary Weapon ○ In Zweihänder Mode: Link does not provide information ○ How long does it take to reload dust? (i.e. 1 post when not in combat?) • █ OTHER WEAPONS: How long is the dagger's blade? • Semblance: ○ Level 1: Does this Wall take a post to create or is it created in the same post it's activated? ○ Please keep consistency with numbers or words for post count (I prefer one or the other). ○ Just for clarification's sake, might wanna mention he can only do these effects on himself ○ For each level's cooldown/Resting Post Count maybe something more concise like: █ *LEVEL 0 ▬ 8 Posts █ *LEVEL 1 ▬ 8 Posts █ *LEVEL 2 ▬ 6 Posts █ *LEVEL 3 ▬ 10 Posts
