Age of the Colossus

The adventure of an unlikely group warriors who band together for varying reasons to see the demise of titan-esque monsters. But, is everything really as straight-forward as it seems or is there much more than meets the eye?

Indeed all the races are open, and a Dryad would likely fit the ragtag assortment we already have. Though, you do need to be aware that since you will be the only other female member you will pretty much be forced into cooperating with my characters sensory experiments. They can have whatever attitude they want about the thing but she'll be pretty insistent and make liberal use of leather straps and chains.

As for your class, I tend to base it on three sets of base skills when talking about Druids.
The first is that of a shapeshifter, taking the forms of animals you are familiar with and, with enough talent and practice, developing some sort of mixture. I don't expect or want to see too drastic of a size change since I'll assume things like mass still follow the laws of physics in this world, but keep it somewhat tame and I'll accept it.

The second is the connection with nature. You have the ability to call upon every beast and speck of life of the wilds to grant you aid and guidance, but whether they come through depends solely on them for you have no true control over their actions and can only negotiate. This of course applies to all beings that would be classified as a beast or plant only, certain creatures may have advanced past the point of being considered part of the wild.

The final talent a druid could have would be the mastery over elemental forces. Now a Druid who is also a Nymph of the Willow probably won't be too keen on shooting lightning from her hands or setting the world ablaze, but some sort of earth and water manipulation would likely fit.

I've gone through and taken a look at the wealth of information provided by Crook and Life, thank you by the way, and will get started on her in a few hours. I have a pretty good idea of how I want her to be so it shouldn't take too long once I get the ball a rollin'. If I can't finish tonight I will submit whatever work I have done and start finishing it up tomorrow. Even if that's the case I should still have quite a bit done anways.

I got bribed into this with the promise of strippers, money, drugs, booze and lots of chocolate icecream.

Anyway I hope my character does not go too far onto the scale, I am looking forward to joining the crew if you would have me and I am finding it surprisingly difficult to choose a voice for my character, then again... one cant go wrong with Jennifer Hale

While me and Soc wait for a time when the two of us are both paying attention, I suggest going back to and toning down your 26 year old to some point before being an unstoppable brick and maybe copying the sheet over into Word so the grammatical and spelling mistakes can be corrected.

I am assuming that was headed to me.

Made some spell checks, added lots of ´, shows me that the grammar check of Opera is not as dandy as I believed, modified the fate read ability, as well as explained its links to the Ki and emotion as well as modified the Stone Shape abilities to only extend to her arms and legs which adds vulnerability to ranged fire and made a note to show that her combat style is heavily focused against humanoids and might not fare so well against beasts or constructs which have either weird biology or none at all

Glad that you are giving critique rather than just shutting doors at the face

or... if that was directed to someone else (Ashley being 24 and not 26) well I made the changes anyway

Also, Ashley has the possibility of joining the crew through Abbot Song, a shared past or previous encounter could be easily brewed between the two

Indeed I was referring to you regardless of my mistake with that age. Your character still has pretty high numbers, sporting a 10 even; that is probably taking it a bit too far unless you're going for the long-lost prodigy that will save the world route. If that is the case then you won't be accepted, and if that isn't the case you still need to edit her down.

This is of course only relevant if we have decided to expand upon the limits already set or not, I offer no guarantees that I won't tell you to go away.

Seduced by Fly-guy and his accursed roleplays and invites.

Well, I apologize for upsetting the gender balance once more. My character's recruitment is less direct, but I'll let Fly-guy look it over I make any more statements. For all I know he'll stamp a big red "REJECTED" sticker on my face.

You have actually balanced out the genders and Wilhelmina now has someone not covered in tree parts to experiment on

Made some changes but it seems that you have reached your limit of a 6 man crew, a shame indeed well I take it that if I don't hear back from you the verdict is quite simple eh?

Seems like I might have some trouble grasping the exact meaning before the numerical values but I hope to hear (or rather read) back from you

@Flyguy: I'm sure Flower-san grows tired of dealing with me as well.

@Life: Is that so? I need to go relearn my addition. Anyways, if you see anything wrong with it, please don't hesitate to call me out on it. Most of the parts not related to skill or appearance are blustered through because I wasn't sure how exactly to put things so that it would comfortably fit with whatever plans you and Fly may have.

Yes, Shiva, I'm so tired of you, you silly amoeba-being.

/sarcasm

Seriously, though. Not at all. No reason to dislike writing with people who do it well, is there? (^_^)

I apologize Romanek but you are correct in your assumptions. As for the number systems, having anything be a ten is equating your abilities to that of a wholly superior being that a mortal would be hard-pressed to match.

As for the sheet Shiva, the original plan was for the majority of the group to spontaneously come together to fight a colossus that two or three of them have been hired to fight. We could have you be a late addition since that's what you're bio already implies but that requires something more specific than a temple with Asiatic names for a description.

Other than that I'm not very strict in the layouts for this roleplay, though you may need to bring the intelligence down a point, but that's more of an issue for Oran's 200 year old bard than for me; maybe he's just not as smart as he thinks he is. Either way I get to stay comfortable with the fact that I get to lord over you all with my perfectly justifiable nine.

I was hoping that you could fill in the blanks. The temple does not have to explicitly be asiatic in nature, it is just what her parents wanted to name her. I tried to be pretty general because I didn't want to interfere with the main storyline too much. However, if it's too much I can alter it so I can come in earlier- its not too hard.

@Everybody: Yay for us! Worship the Venerable Crook and his almighty powers!

@Crook: Of course Willow already HAS a 10! Well in laziness that is, and you shall soon find out why.

@Shank: So that means Willow won't be the only puppet, and it seems she is less favored because of plant-related phenomena. *Going for a hug...but thinks twice and settles for a manly handshake. Overcompensation of course*

@Life: Oh... I almost forgot about you...erm...Hello!

@Kuro: *Super Glomp* Yay! Kuro! *Double Glomp* I get to bother you even more now! *Twiddles Kuro's thumbs for some odd purpose*

*Continues twiddling Kuro's thumbs* You failed in your attempt to stop me Kuro! You forgot about my almighty twiddling powers! *Looking at Crook* Oh yes...but it is so innocent to twiddle thumbs, even if they aren't yours. Can I not have some leniency with that rule? I won't tell anyone about your involvement in my conpsiracy unravelling!
