Actually, no. Please no ponies, gawsh no. I need you guys to submit a few ideas so that the GMs can get started on prepping next PMs. You don't have to answer all of the questions, but the more you give us to work with, the more of a role you'll likely play during plot.
So here's a quick questions sheet:
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
You can post here or PM your answers to me. Either or is fine.
1) Mouko, his sister Aki, or the ideal of 'choice'. He hates choices being taken from others.
2) He doesn't give much thought to personal life (yet), but his greatest accomplishment is completely removing Chimera from Tokyo, and toppling the corruption in Cerberus.
3) His greatest regret is his manipulating of Mouko and Riki when they first met. His greatest fear is becoming another Kurohi.
4) Sub-list go!
a) Shinigami: Arano has really mixed feelings about them. Sayis has his respect, as does Ilsa, but they're really the only ones that have it. Every other shinigami he's met thus far has really only dampened his opinion of them. He finds them arrogant, self-serving and moreover rather useless when the going gets tough.
b) Advent Humans: Being his native race, he has a bias towards them for the fact that they have to fight everyday to stay alive. He does find a lot of problems in AHs, moreover how often the groups they congregate into often do stupid, or foolhardy things.
c) Vizards: Mixed feelings. Since he's met so few of them, Arano really only knows the Vizards for their desertion of Cerberus for a time. Combined with Hisao blindly leading them into Dunan for a reason he didn't believe in, he's not terribly fond of them.
d) Quincy: Arano hates Quincy who feel entitled because of their past, but otherwise thinks they're not that bad.
5) Arano hates puppeteers, likes long walks on the beach, and I have a strong desire to make him a PC-known force in the RP.
Answers for Mouko:
1) Arano and Masato, and she's particularly adamant about protecting those close to her.
2) She's begun to see Arano as more than just a friend, and is currently going through a conundrum of how to bring that across without making it weird. Her greatest accomplishment is being the youngest known Orpheus Operative to reach the rank of Lieutenant.
3) Her greatest regret is not spending more time with Riki before his death. Her greatest fear is being forced back into Chimera captivity.
4) More sub-lists!!
a) Shinigami: Mouko has a lot of second-hand experience with shinigami, but those she's met personally she cares about. Ilsa in particular has become a great friend to her.
b) Advent Humans: Case-by-case. She hates Ciro, loves Arano, is terrified of Hisao, and thinks of Masato like a brother.
c) Vizards: No vested opinion, she's terrified of Hisao though.
d) Quincy: No vested opinion.
1. What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
Latest arc introduced a few important ppl but I think they’ll stay relegated to my NPCs. Hisao’s major shtick has always been acquiring knowledge/being regretless.
2. What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to
accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
Accomplishment would be to somehow reform the Army of Masks to be a force to be reckoned with. As it stands Hisao named himself Imperator of like 5 ppl.
3. What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Greatest fear would be becoming subservient to someone again. Since leaving the Gotei Hisao is pretty resentful about having to answer to someone again. Even Ciro he speaks to as an equal despite being technically under his command.
4. What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
When it comes to Cerb he gets along at least ok with the other directors. He’s pretty ambivalent to most shinigami, exceptions being he still holds Sayis, Lilith, and Haresuno in high regard as well as personally liking Ishin. He has some minor rivalry thingy going on with Masato and Kyu as well as Mitsuhito and Igasho owing Hisao a favor of his choice. O and he wants to kill/maim Alexia for talking above her station.
5. Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
That should cover most of it, if you need more let me know.
1. Loyalty. There’s nothing Zakki values much above it whether it’s professional or personal.
2. Becoming the Director of Cerberus Tokyo is far and away Zakki’s greatest accomplishment given his utter fail when he began as an agent at Cerberus. At some point in his life he’d like to become Chairman of Cerberus. In his personal life he’s just hoping to keep his relationship with Richard going into the future.
3. The greatest regret that Zakki has is the fact that he’s had to harden his personality and his outlook to maintain his role in Cerberus. The greatest fear that the young man has is that he will be abandoned by his friends as he rises up the ranks of the Corporation.
4. As a human who has had a high exposure to shinigami and Vizards, Zakki is intrigued by the interactions of the “unseen world”. His view of Death Gods is a complex one that respects some of the individuals he’s met ( Ilsa, Alexia, Seiko) while being suspicious of the motives of their directing minds (the C46). As for the Vizards there is a sense of confusion about why they are so aggressively pursued by the shinigami and why such a deep antagonism exists.
5. Zakki is crackling with potential power and needs more avenues to use it fully. I would like to see him join his other Directors on a higher plane of combat and conflict. He will be even more agile and powerful by the time summer PMs roll around. It might also be interesting to see how his internal conflicts about Cerberus could play out on a larger stage.
1. People: probably Katsu and Kaoru (half-siblings) as well as Hideki, Tsukasa, and Thirty (friends)... An argument could be made for Zakki as well. Ideal: probably that of trust, though it is something Ewan himself finds hard to dole out because of all the suspicious people he tends to hang about with, and that one DOES include Zakki.
2. Almost single-handedly holding off a massive horde of Hollows that was attacking TNK, saving a group of students from Chimera and surviving having a building fall on him with only a bump on the noggin to show for it. And what he'd really like is for all these weird things and people to leave him in peace... so he's screwed there...
3. Greatest regret would be being unable to save the 79 who were killed in the above attack, that or nearly screwing things up in the following incident with Chimera. Greatest fear: losing the people nearest to him the same way he lost his father.
4. He doesn't know much about the shinigami but doesn't think that highly of them, again because of the aforementioned attack and what he knows the shinigami should be doing. He's never heard of Qunicy or Vizards (I really should rectify that) and is frankly still highly suspicious of all the other Advent Humans and all their weird secrets and plotting.
5. I'd just like him to get to the end in one piece. Actually, getting to the end at all for once would be nice...
1) Other than her parents, Alexia cares deeply for her friend Adelaide. Her ideal: Unity. She wants to see much more cooperation between the divisions and ranks, and dislikes the current state of her 'military'.
2) Her two greatest accomplishments are her survival in the current hunts, and making a friend after being non-social for so long. Her career goals are rather obvious to just about everyone she's met: She seeks the rank of captain. However her reasoning for it changed from her initial start. She wanted the rank as a way of tribute to the man who had given her the zanpakuto she wielded. But now she wants to help change the Seireitei for the better, to see a much more united group.
3) Alexia's greatest fear is the feeling of being useless. During her mission in the jungles of India, she felt as though she hardly contributed anything to the fight compared to the two senior officers she had been deployed with. She hates that she can't do as much as them, but uses it fuel her drive to get better.
4) Alexia tries to meet as many new shinigami as possible. So much so she hasn't spent much time with her own squadmates. She doesn't get why others carry so much hostility towards each other. Division reps, bloody history, and other events lent themselves to creating a sense of disorganization.
Vizards...after her first encounter with the old bag of bones known as Hisao, Alexia looked into Vizards and their history. Whereas she started off regarding Hisao as a coward who ran away, she now pities the members of the doomed race. Exiled and essentially sentenced to a slow death, Alexia believes that the masked beings should be helped.
As for Advents, there are mixed feelings. She's developed a rapport with Zakki, however others (*cough arano cough*) are giving a much more different, more violent feeling.
Quincies: What now?
5) Alexia wants to see more a more 'comrade ' feel among the rank and file of the Seireitei. One wrong line, and suddenly there's a cry of arrogance and disrespect. Basically...
1. The most important person in his life would be his former soon-to-be, Yusumi. The most prevalent ideal in his life as of recent events would be redemption.
2. His greatest accomplishment would be defeating the Sine Qua Non lieutenant, Jidai Kewashii, as well as two Arrancar. His current ambition is to restore and completely reform the Rukongai as a whole.
3. His greatest regret is the irreparable damage he inflicted on the innocents in his home district in the northern 64th district. Though it has ebbed a bit, he also blames himself for Gorou’s hollowfication. His greatest fear is becoming the man that he once was.
4. Other races:
Shinigami: As a rat of the Rukongai, Manzou has a lingering distaste for the disparity of living conditions between Seireitei’s residents and the great majority of the Rukongai’s citizens. As such, he has never considered himself one of them, though, he holds in high regard the notable officers he has met such as Lilith Maikeru, Arashi Ryoujin, and Reijuu Kyuketsu.
Advent Humans: Having only met a select few during the deployment to Dunan, Manzou has no definite stance on the race as a whole. His encounter with Arano, Kazamir, and Kyojin has left him with a bit of indifference, though.
Vizards: As of Gorou’s hollowfication, his sympathy toward the Vizard race is particularly biased, feeling that their “condition” is undeserving of execution or exile.
Quincy: No opinion.
5. With his indifference towards the haughty and self-interested nature of most nobles, Manzou has a definite sense of his hypocrisy, being one of them, though, sees his position as a means to an end and intends to bleed all that he can from it.
Ideal: Tetsuo is fascinated by knowledge, and as such doesn’t adhere to any one ideal anymore.
2.Achievement: Witnessing four generations of the 11th and not dying in the process.
Future: Staying alive ranks pretty high for him, really.
3.Regret: Losing his mother.
Fear: Nothing else to learn would suck a lot.
4. Doesn’t really like all AH factions due to a personal disgust towards humans. Doesn’t care about Vizards since he hasn’t met/talked with/battled any, and the same for Quincy. Since he is a shinigami, I believe his opinion about both Shinigami and Hollow is obvious.
1) What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
People: Her family, Mariko, and Sayis. Ideal: The Gotei, in particular their mission to keep the people of Earth and Soul Society safe from supernatural threats. It frustrates her that they've been failing so badly in this, and she suspects political forces in the C46 of deliberately sabotaging their efforts.
2) What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
Becoming vice-captain of the First Division. As far as career goes, Ilsa is pretty happy where she's at. Maybe she'll take the taishuu... in a hundred years or so. The thought of being a captain kind of scares her.
3) What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Greatest regret: The Prometheus mission. Epic failure of leadership on her part, at least the way she sees it. Greatest fear: Going postal on friends or allies who won't be able to defend themselves as well as Hare did when she lost it with him.
4) What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
Advent humans: Ilsa wants to be friends! As far as she's concerned, they have a right to defend themselves from Hollows and things would go a lot smoother if the Gotei provided them some guidance in doing so. Unfortunately, many humans are suspicious of shinigami (for good reason), and she's seen the darker side of spiritually aware Earth when rescuing Mouko from Chimera. She likes Zakki and Mouko, and has a sort of wary respect going on with Arano.
Vizards: They didn't ask to be vizard-ified. She's been known to look the other way and leave encounters with vizards out of official reports, especially Shukumei and Daichi. If they lose the battle with their inner Hollow and become a threat, though... Ilsa will do what she must to protect innocents.
Quincy: KILL THEM WITH FIRE. They destroy souls. They have destroyed the souls of her subordinates, who didn't even get a chance to defend themselves. Her one encounter with a Quincy ended with her glaive through his chest.
5) Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
It would be nice to have a chance to cut loose with bankai and see her shine. Leadership opportunities would be good as well; Ilsa's last shot at that turned into a debacle of legendary proportions, and there will be a fair bit of fear and "oh my god, what if I fail this time too?". She needs to get back on the horse.
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
Gorou never let go of the morals he learned back in Edo Japan. All of the tenets of Bushido make up his every little action, and while he's well aware that his allies are not Samurai themselves he still values those same qualities. By the same token, when an acquaintance of his demonstrates strength of character he expects that it remain there indefinitely and doesn't react favorably towards moments of weakness.
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
In Gorou's short time in Seireitei the most memorable accomplishment he would have managed was his participation in the destruction of the Arrancar Locura. Though he was present for the engagement in Dunan he had done little other than kill two of the illusions created in Raifuku's maze.
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Gorou's greatest regret lies in having committed seppuku, and the way he'd handled the events leading up to it - which relates to his greatest fear. Ever since enlisting with the Gotei he's been afraid of what he might do if he lost his temper. In Edo it had meant killing a lot of people, including his closest friend. Having become a Vizard, that fear has been increased a thousandfold as he not only has an anger problem of his own, but the constant threat of his inner Vizard's rage becoming powerful enough to take control.
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
Gorou has, in fact, not meant a single Advent Human or Quincy, and has only a passing knowledge of both (he knows but is skeptical of their existence). To him a Vizard and a Shinigami are nearly the same, save for the death sentence on the former's heads.
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
His most important ideal is maintaining the balance of souls, since that's supposed to be the fundamental job of a shinigami. After that would be gaining information, since he hates not knowing things. Thirdly would be teamwork. Udo looks up to those above him, but sometimes wonders if their decision was the right one. His closest friend right now would be Adelaide Pierce.
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
His greatest accomplishment so far is not dying yet lol. He's been hunting down related hollows for quite a while now, and wants to find out who's behind them. His long term goal is to improve the flow of information into the Gotei.
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Udo's greatest regret is not being able to help when his previous captain, Saika Rakushun, went missing. His greatest fear is that he'll lose people close to him.
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
He's had a few encounters with humans, but none of the big players, apart from Zakki Shihara. He has a communication channel with Zakki, but hasn't achieved much with it yet. So, not enough information to form a strong opinion.
When a single Quincy rained destruction on normal humans, empowered humans, hollows and shinigami alike, the first impression was set. As long as Quincies don't cooperate with shinigami, they are a pure threat.
Udo lost a bunch of superiors to a Vizard attack, so he's not a fan of them. However, since he's read about the mask war, he knows that more subtle tactics are needed to deal with them.
Shinigami are his comrades. He's seen the bankai of Makoto and Kyuketsu, and raw power of Tsubaki, so they're three he especially looks up to in combat. Adelaide's a smart girl, so he looks forward to see what tricks she has up her sleeve in combat.
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
His Subspace Communicator has potential to add another aspect to PMs. So far he's given one to Zakki, and he's about to give one to Adelaide.
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life): ...that I'm not dead? Also, I want to blow up the moon.
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
I regret being but one person, when so many asses need kicking. I fear there is not enough time.
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc. It's all meat, bro.
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
Auburn sucks.
:Hypnoparrot:And now, the real answers::Hypnoparrot:
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character? Persons:At the moment, two of the most important people to Tsubaki are Captains Amaterasu and Kyuketsu, people who play a very large role in both the life Tsubaki left behind as Captain of the Eleventh and the life she is attempting to make for herself in the Third Division. Kyuketsu has been a long running on again/off again possible romantic interest for Tsubaki, and while the two have never had "that moment" the amount of underlying tension continues.
However, a great deal of inner conflict is present as well in the fact that if she attempted to ever pursue it the results could significantly damage Kyuketsu's image and standing as the Shinigami who followed her in Captaincy of the Blood Templar/Fearless Duelists.
Captain Amaterasu Nana is important because of her representation as somewhat of a 'clean slate' for Tsubaki. After meeting by chance in Raifuku's maze the former Captain surrendered specifically to Nana after becoming very much impressed with how the woman was carrying herself under duress, even to the extent of having to take command while in the company of two full-fledged Captains herself.
While the relationship between Tsubaki and Nana is still developing, the two seem to form an amicable team and with luck will only grow stronger as time progresses.
Things: At the moment, two of the most important possessions to Tsubaki are her Zanpakutou, and the newly liberated freedom to use it. It could be (hopefully somewhat convincingly) argued that had the woman been at full combat capacity when making a move against the Central Forty-Six their subsequent overturning of her 'offer' and the unabashed backstabbing that followed would not have gone as smoothly as it had.
Ideals:After significant struggling with her own self-identity and establishing just who and what she was to both herself and the new Zanpakutou at her side, Tsubaki can be pretty efficiently summed up in a couple of distinct traits:
-Honesty: After dealing with countless liars and double-talkers in literally every realm present in this RP, Tsubaki has adopted and taken to heart a more simplistic view of interacting with others. If you're being an asshole, she's going to call you an asshole. If she thinks your plan is stupid, she's going to call it stupid to your face. And if you're going to try and stab her in the back, she will spare no details when describing just how much she will make you suffer should you mess it up.
-One's Inner Elephant: While she has been returned to active duty without so much as a formal hearing, trial, slap on the wrist, or even a 'hey welcome back,' Tsubaki has most certainly not forgotten the events that led up to and followed her impromptu exodus to ground. The unabashed lying of the Forty-Six, the attempts on her life both by the minions of the Judges as well as Theron Ascania, and the cold treatment by the amalgamated members of Cerberus, Orpheus, and the Army of Mask have all been mentally weighed and measured innumerable times by the former Captain. However, none of those transgressions carries a higher spot on the woman's Shit List than that of Sayis Inuzuri for the greatest insult of them all.
Apathy.
He stood in those chambers as threat after threat sailed back and forth between both sides, and did nothing. He had previous knowledge of Tsubaki's plan (from the woman herself, no less), and failed to act. When presented with a moment to set himself apart from all those involved and actually rise above all of it as not only the Soutaichou, but a fellow soldier, he walked away.
The 'washing of hands' by Sayis is to date one of the largest grudges Tsubaki carries, and it will not soon be forgiven, and certainly not forgotten.
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
It would most likely have to be a toss-up between establishing and commanding a (arguably) successful Division, making sure that it was in (arguably more) capable hands before being driven into hiding, and quite frankly living through the quite insane amount of shit that has come after the Gotei in the almost 4 years I've been writing her.
As for the personal life? At this point the greatest accomplishment I could note is the possibility of still having one.
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Not being there for her parents, due both to her duties as a Shinigami and the memory tampering of Shiraha. Losing her mother to the sword is something that Tsubaki has still never fully moved past, even if she is reluctant to talk about it.
As for fears? Take your pick. The fear of dying alone, the fear of dying without making a difference, the fear of seeing the people she loves die while she continues to live, etc, etc.
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc. Central Forty-Six: You won't get another chance. Lying about 'due process' and 'letting the system work' only work once. Try it again and there will be fire and blood. Remember that. Shinigami: Tsubaki tolerates you, most of you. If she doesn't, odds are you know. And if not, odds are you will know soon. None of you sought her out in exile, she had to come to you. That level of abandonment isn't easily forgotten. Humans/Advents: Not much opinion of you either way. Some of you (cough)Arano(cough) would accuse her of being arrogant, but it takes to know. To some level most Shinigami (arguably) see humanity as a whole as a unit of measure, grains of rice to be added or culled to preserve the balance between worlds...and some of you make her okay with that. Quincies: Adena, where'd you go? We had such a good time blowing up giant robots, and you never call. You're the one race out there that can match Shinigami toe-to-toe in raw damage output...and given the caliber of enemy we're facing now we need all the help we can get. Hollows: I'm going to gut you, I'm going to make it hurt and I'm going to make it last. Consider me getting even for that lovely little choker-curse a down payment. I have killed you by the hundreds, by the thousands. Now that I'm back to full?
I'm going to kill you by the millions.
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
Tsubaki was a woman to be respected and feared as Captain of the Eleventh. Her title is gone, but there is more cause than ever to be afraid.
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
Most important ideal, to know more than the opponent and utilize that knoweledge in the best way possible.
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
Greatest accmplishment is auctioning off every captain, for charity.
What she wants to accomplish in her career, she wants to create a command post that allows constant tracking of shinigami while on missions and give them information. Like a mission command type thing.
What she wants to accomplish in her personal life, auction off other officers.
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Greatest regret is going to Hueco Mundo. Greatest fear is losing more limbs.
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
She would love to keep tabs on key figures of every race. For the most part, she's neutral towards all of them as a whole.
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
Picca will be constructing devices to hand out to shinigami that want them. They do stuff.
1. The ideal of control and the consequences of unchecked power is core to Ciro’s personality. While he tries to avoid making personal bonds with others, he genuinely concerned about the wellbeing of his sister, Arietta, and Arano.
2. His greatest personal achievements are the revenge he obtained through the killing of Mister Blue and former Cerberus Director, Andrei Arcos. Along with those, his ascension in Cerberus to the rank of Chairman.
3. While he no longer carries guilt, his greatest fear is the succumbing to the insanity in his mind. He fears the day he can no longer suppress his desire for control and recreating his obsession for power.
4. I heard you like subsections
a. Shinigami: Ciro views shinigami with a bitter disdain. Their hit-and-miss reactions to Earth, their repeated attempts on his life, and the human causalities caused by their actions have created hostility.
b. Advent Human: His opinion changes from person to person, though overall he sees himself as the defining force on Earth. He values Arano as his only friend and as his “Shadow”. He views Zakki as the representation of the path he could have taken. His personally feels as if Masato is unfit to lead Orpheus and the two share somewhat of a disdain of one another.
c. Vizard: Ciro feels a sort of kinship with Vizards, both of them being considered rouge elements. He holds a sort of fixation on the madness caused by inner-hollows, comparing it to the insanity caused by his own broken past. He holds a strong relationship with Hisao Adachi, seeing him as his most trusted advisor.
d. Quincy: Ciro has not had the greatest of encounters with Quincy, and sees them as self-absorbed fools. The actions of the QRF
have caused him to hate the group and the animosity has seeped out to apply to all members of the race.
5. Ciro is full on going for an independent Earth, free of unnecessary meddling by spiritual forces, as well as to place himself in a position to be a commanding force in all worlds. Also, Cerberus' specialty is the recovery, research and containment of spiritually aware items and people.
//Why the hell not Lucia Frey:
1. Lucia's greatest ideal, and what she wishes to attain is true freedom, unshackled from the tradition and rules of nobility. All the while she's completly loyal to her own House of Amaterasu-Frey. Other ideals involve creativity and expression.
2. Her greatest accomplishment is saving her shattered family, after the breakup of Metzer-Frey, and finding them a home in House Amaterasu. She hopes to one day build up her own self-confidence and lead the House of Frey as matriarch.
3. Her guilt stems from the break up of Metzer-Frey. She feels as if the break up was brought on by her own weakness and lack of confidence in her skills. This was expounded during Raifuku's attack on the C46, where she chose to leave, using Ishin's order to leave as an excuse for her own lack of confidence. Her current greatest fear is her lack of confidence causing someone close to her to die.
4. I heard you like subsections
a. Shinigami: She is devoutly loyal to the Gotei XIII. She sees Lilith Maikeru, Haresuno Uchiharu, and Amaterasu Nana as her role models. She maintains friendships with Adelaide Pierce, Haresuno Uchiharu, Feng, and Amaterasu Nana. As a part of the Fourth, she seeks to prevent as many causalities as possible.
b. Advent Human: She has only really met Arano, and has declared him to be her rival for beating her at Mario Kart.
c. Vizard: Lucia has not met any vizards, though she does feel a sort of pity towards them.
d. Quincy: Lucia has no opinion on the Quincy, though she fears their ability to upset the balance of souls.
Listing off the other peeps from the 11th seems inconsequential. He values them greatly, Ryoujin in particular (no homo), but Kyuketsu’s relationship with Fuko is on another level entirely. He’s pussywhipped, is what I’m trying to say.
Ideals: Power
Lately, he’s been growing pretty irritated getting outclassed by a lot of people. The frustration and ego that’s been building up for some time is getting to his head, and as such his desire to become even stronger is at an all time high. Hopefully, when this fight with Orixa boils down, the kettle will burst, pushing him to the brink.
2. Accomplishment: He doesn’t consider anything he’s done as a worthwhile achievement, even becoming a captain. In a way, he sees it more as a call of duty rather than an actual thing worth being proud of.
3. Regret: Fuko’s brother (a shinigami) died because of young Kyuketsu’s inadequacy. This was the spark that ignited the fuse, so to say.
Fear: Losing everything, i.e. power.
4. Shinigami: Being a soul reaper himself, he holds their position in high regards. In some cases, he even considers them to be the ‘superior’ race out of all. Heil.
Humans: Overall, he has some level of respect for their determination and willpower. For the most part though, with regular earthlings, he sees them as kind of subsidiary, blissfully ignorant to the truth of the world.
Vizard: ‘Meh’ is the most accurate term to describe his feelings for hybrids. He’s not exactly against the so-called taboo of gaining Hollow powers to become stronger. If anything, Kyuketsu admires the few of them for being so ballsy. If he’s ordered to kill them, however, then it’s free game.
Quincy: On a personal standpoint, they’re on the same field as with humans. He’s duty-bound to go against them though seeing as how they disrupt the balance.
Hollows: Absolute scum, the whole lot of them. He’d exterminate them indiscriminately just for being what they are.
5. To go with the tradition of all sons of bitches from the Eleventh, if there’s something that shouldn’t be fucked with, then it’s only right that Kyuketsu should stick his dick in it. Literally and figuratively.
1. Roland's most important person is his "granddaughter" Maria, who he is desperately searching for. If I had to say an ideal, then it has to be either "enduring" or "order." One is what he has been doing for all the long years, and the other is the ideal that he has done much of that ideal for.
2. Unfortunately, Roland does not view alot of his accomplishments as "great," and that leads into his self view of being expandability. As it stands, he has both the desire to find his granddaughter (first and foremost), but he also wants to take Orpheus back to the powerhouse that it used to be (or he thinks it used to be.)
3. Roland's greatest regret is when he met an old friend who had died and eventually become a shinigami, forgetting all about Roland and the fact that Roland caused his death. His greatest fear is to learn that all of the things he has lived through and done will be for absolutely no reason.
A) Shinigami: Roland understands what they do, and respects them for it, but believes that they are too similar to armchair generals and do not see how trying to "protect the balance" affects everyone else.
B) Advent Humans: Wishes that they knew what he had been through, and knows that they should not go barging into trouble like they are invincible. He appreciates, however, that they are trying, particularly in the case of Light, who is helping him find his Maria and thus has his permanent gratitude.
C) Vizards: He has never actually met one, despite his advanced years. Finds the concept of anything using Hollows as a power source to be laughable at best, and a potential Auschwitz at worst.
D) Quincy: Quincy are honestly some of his favorite people. They have rigid structure, kill hollows, and generally keep their noses in their "own damn business."
5: Roland is a veritable cache of classified Orpheus information and has first hand information on many of the older missions within the Initiative. He also feels like his time is almost up but that he, for once in his life, needs more time in order to finish what he has left to do.
AND SINCE I'M FEELING FROGGY, HAVE SAMMY'S SIDE OF THINGS!
1. Samuel believes in the common man, and a world where no one is oppressed. His favorite person right now is Orion, the people's best hope for freedom.
2.Samuel's greatest accomplishment is the depth of which he has infiltrated the prison society of Soul Society. He wishes to topple the "oppressive regime" of the Gotei 13 and their Nobles.
3. Regret: Not truly believing in the ideals of Orion before the Rebellion was crushed. His greatest fear is that he will become just as evil as the shinigami he has been surrounded with.
4a: Samuel hates shinigami. Just absolutely hates them. They sit cozy in Seireitei while people in Rukongai live in squalor, and they each individually hole insurmountable power, and the saying goes that "absolute power corrupts absolutely."
4b/c: Samuel could not give two shits about Humans and Quincy. He will let the Living World tend to themselves and Spiritual World to themselves.
4d: If these "Vizard" things exist, then he is truly disgusted. A shinigami that decided that it needed the powers of a hollow, as well, is completely appalling.
5: Samuel is a member of UKI and holds untapped potential as a shinigami, as awful as a thought for him that may be.
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
Brooke Ainsley is the most important person to Adelaide. The most important ideal she holds is having justice done over any obstacle. The most important places to Adelaide are her tea shop and the Tenth Division.
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
Although she worries that it no longer is possible, her ultimate personal goal is marrying Brooke. Professionally, she wants to reclaim her place as Lilith's most trusted subordinate. She doesn't aspire to captaincy yet, but I want her to develop that ambition over PMs. She's more of a 'greatness thrust upon them' type, though. As for her greatest accomplishment so far, either learning Kindou or the fight about to happen in Homage.
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Personally; Adelaide's greatest regret is sleeping with Evie and greatest fear is Brooke not forgiving her. Professionally; her greatest regret is the feeling that she's never done anything positive as a Shinigami and her greatest fear is being responsible for the death of someone she cares for.
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
She feels that, generally, Shinigami are essentially good, but a lot of individual shinigami are arrogant and ambitious. She also recognizes the authority of the Central 46 but considers them inconsiderate of Rukongai citizens. Adelaide also hates wiping the memories of Advent Humans. She has respect for both Advents and Vizards. She dislikes the distrust Shinigami have for the other races. She's never had an encounter with Quincies, but disapproves of their tactics. As for events, she carries around extreme survivor's guilt from Dunan and self-loathing from the assault on the 46. She feels inadequate from most major missions.
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
I want Adelaide's Captaincy arc to start either in pre-PMs or post-PMs.
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
Person :: Adelaide, probably?
Thing :: Her hairpins (p.s. I'm srs)
Ideal :: To accomplish things stealthily and creatively
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life?
Greatest accomplishment, uhm... deciding kinda well on some adoption issue. She's happy not having fucked that shit up.
For aspirations, well, for personal, there's finding her old father/teacher figure. As for career, I guess I could say she wants to keep up with others in terms of strength *although of course, ~lol~*
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
She's afraid of being so useless she'd be there like, existing for nothing.
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
Shinigami :: K.
Humans :: K.
Vizards :: K.
Quincy :: What? /doesn't know what quincies are/
Hollows :: /would kill at first sight/
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
She'll be more willing to do intel/recon stuff more than fighting. But of course she'll fight, lawl.
For Anshy::
What/who is the most important person, thing, or ideal to your character?
Person:At this point, her immediate family members are the most important people above all. Though she does not usually stand up to stuff, she'll definitely do it should any of their lives be on line. She believes that they are more than capable to defend themselves, but she feels distressed anyway. Basically, she considers her family to be her backbone. Thing:Her old study notes and books. Well, she treasures books, usually indiscriminate of the topic. Ideal:For her, it is important to put others' welfare above hers. Even when in terrible pain, she will try her best to ensure the safety of those around her. When around patients and allies, she even tries to use the most sensible spells just so she could accomplish her task while not causing inconvenience to anyone around her. Healing and making sure everyone's fine is always top priority.
What is their greatest accomplishment? What else do they hope to accomplish at some point in their life? (both in career and personal life)
She considers her graduation from the Academy as her greatest achievement, having repeated it twice due to physical afflictions. As for aspirations, well, she just wants to be an efficient healer while balancing her family-work life. Other than that, she actually has no career-related aspirations. Yeah, uhm, dreams and goals doesn't really exist in her world. xD
What is your character's greatest regret? Their greatest fear?
Regrets, none. She believes that everything happens for a reason and fate finds its own course, whatever failure she commits. If she does fail, well, she's a bunch of living failure in at least half the physical stuff thrown to her so it doesn't really matter.
As for fear, well, she fears a lot of things. She fears abandonment, solitude and well, pretty much a lot of things. Weak-hearted people tend to fear a lot of things, I'd assume. Can get really panicky about things. But she considers losing her family as her greatest fear. Not being able to do well at what she excels at comes a close second. She's sick so um, illness acting up at mid-battle comes as third greatest fear (although this is unlikely if we're talking of day scenes).
What does your character think about the other races? Talk about individual characters of other races, specific events, etc.
If put on a gigai, she won't be able to tell the difference between a shinigami, an advent human, a vizard, a quincy, and pretty much other humanoid creatures out there. And she probably doesn't care unless she gets assaulted. Either way, if anyone gets hurt, from whatever race it may be, she'll most likely try to ensure their welfare unless commanded otherwise.
Hollows, well, she's afraid of hollows, and that's that. If it's an arrancar that doesn't try to kill her/concealed its reiatsu, well... cover that mask, hole and number and we'll have a problem...
Any other pertinent information that you think might be important to give your character the opportunity to fully contribute to PMs.
No, she does not have chiyudou yet. If we manage to finish the collab before summer PMs start, then she will, but I feel that needs to be clarified anyway. Also, since she's almost a no-fight character, it'd be nice if she had a 'torn between duties' (of fighting/healing) somewhere.
1. One Ideal that Dellius hold dear is to accomplish things quickly, and to the best of his abilities. All while remaining reasonably tidy. He also views cleanliness and behavior very seriously.
2.He has yet to make any substantial achievement aside from attain his release. As for aspirations, he desires to serve and be useful as he was in life.
3. Dellius's greatest regret is when he acts when he acts against his civilized manner in public as well as overly giving in to the primal inclinations of his zanpaktou spirit. His greatest fear is that he will succumb to his carnal urges for bloodlust completely and end up going too far.
4. Dellius hasn't really met any of the other races, save for shinigami, hollows and humans. The race of vizard and quincy have only been read about in books.
