Considering what ACO is capable of, I'm going to give Eleos an Upgrade.

Cloaking device - Super Smash Bros Melee
or
Stealth camouflage - Metal Gear

Thoughts?

EDIT: Ok hyperlinks are working now

Name: Jack Eichem Inozuka

Game of Origin: N/A; From the Apocalyptic Future

Appearance:



Personality: carries honor on his shoulders as if he could die without it, basically meaning he is courteous and brave, but with a sense of arrogance wafting around him.

Weapons: Machete and the .525 calibur magnum Gerard used to own.

Abilities:

Near Teleportation: Can jump really high and leap quite a distance and land almost instantly, resulting in a near teleportation effect. Difference between near teleportation and teleportation is that he can't go through walls or roofs without smashing them.

Inhuman Speeds: can move from one place to another quickly. Like, oh, say, 37 mph without fatigue.

Inhuman Strength: can lift a dump truck if he wanted to. He can also withstand the recoil and muzzle jump of the .525 caliber magnum.

Quick Reflexes: can move quick enough to block any obvious bullet with his machete.

Swordsmanship: Can cut through most anything. Even Mjolnir armor given enough time.

Intellect: In battle, he can think up several complex scenarios and go with the most beneficial one in a matter of mere seconds.

Weakness: Has a strong sense of honor that can make or break him.

Biography: He is a product of Otori's apocalyptic future self's strong desire to carry on his bloodline. He is made of his mother's code and his father's blood. He doesn't have much history at all for he was born 24 years old.

Traumas: none

That's it, I give up on finding Jason's app. I'll remake it.


Name: Jason Brody

Game of Origin: Far Cry 3

Appearance:



Morality: Semi-Chaotic Good

Weapons: Whatever he feels like pulling out of his ass.

Abilities: A skilled athlete, Jason proves himself numerous times throughout the game to be able to perform many physically demanding actions, such as sprinting and swimming for extended periods of time, skydiving, para-sailing, mountain climbing and snowboarding. He has exceptional upper body strength, and is able to climb ledges and hang from ziplines by one arm. Jason is a naturally talented firearms user, as mentioned by the flashback of Grant in Mushrooms in the Deep. As the game develops, his firearm skills develop further, and he also becomes a skilled archer. It is likely that Jason learned these skills from Grant who was an Army Reservist. Although perhaps not an expert, Jason develops some skills with explosives throughout the game, as he is seen using C4 explosives in numerous levels and also learns how to effectively use grenades.

Jason becomes a skilled melee fighter during the course of the game, as shown by his fights and victories over Hoyt, Vaas, and Buck, all of which had seemingly more combat experience than him (Vaas was formerly a Rakyat member and most likely an experienced fighter, and Buck served in the military). His skills as a melee fighter also make him an excellent assassin. Later in the game, he is capable of chaining multiple kills together and being able to perform aerial and ledge kills. Jason also becomes an experienced craftsman, hunter and herbalist, making all of his equipment from animals he hunts himself and being able to create a variety of medicines with differing effects as he gains experience.

Jason was given the Tatau by the Rakyat, a mystical tattoo which represents three totemic animals (Heron, Shark and Spider). The Tatau allows Jason to tap into his "warrior" nature and form a connection of some kind with the jungle of Rook Island. When Jason upgrades his abilities, the Tatau actually grows in size and complexity to reflect the totems that he is drawing upon. This tattoo likely explains how Jason rapidly changes from a terrified, ordinary young man with an adventurous streak to a deadly fighter. The Tatau's exact abilities are listed below, and explain why Jason has the edge over his opponents:

Enhanced Strength: The Tatau gives the user enhanced strength which make them stronger than the average adult. With this, Jason can lift heavy objects and exert himself for longer. As the Tatau grows, so does the increase in his strength.

Enhanced Speed: Jason has enhanced speed, which allows him to move very fast for a greatly increased length of time (hence the Tatau ability gained later in the game.) With this, Jason can possibly match even an olympic athlete.

Enhanced Reflexes: Jason has demonstrated on numerous occasions that his reflexes far outmatch others. Jason is even superior to warriors such as Vaas and Hoyt, even when the former had been involved with the Tatau, and as such has similar abilities to Jason, namely because of the latter's large Tatau.

Enhanced Intelligence, Cunning and Bloodlust: Jason, although not stupid before, gained great knowledge of how to assault enemy bases and general cunning. However, his willingness to fight was also amplified. These abilities do not increase with the length of his Tatau.

Personality: Before the events of Far Cry 3, Jason was originally an ordinary and immature slacker who lacks confidence. Now on the island, Jason develops into a brave, adventurous, smart, confident and dangerous idividual, but also disturbed, violent, and unstable. Jason's sociopathic traits become more obvious as the story progressess, with Jason quick to accepting the violence around him and even quicker to getting involved in killing, eventually admitting to Daisy that he found killing fun and felt like "winning". Despite that, Jason can be rather humorous and immature at times such as being excited when burning the weed field or causing mayhem towards his enemies. Jason is very cultured, using popular and famous references during his adventures such as "leap of faith" and "Use the force!" and also 'Would you kindly activate?' Jason is also very caring, protective and loyal to his family and friends, where his primary motives at the island are to rescue them. There is some evidence of his loyalty, such as swearing revenge to kill those who harm his family and friends (specifically Vaas for kidnapping the group and murdering Grant, Buck for raping and torturing Keith for his own pleasure, and Hoyt for shooting Riley and keeping him prisoner). Ever since Jason barely escaped Vaas's camp, he grew to become a famous hero amongst the island's residents, though he does not seem to care about his status. During his adventures, Jason would lend a hand to the residents.

Biography: Born on December 30th, 1987 in Los Angeles, California; Jason is the middle child of three siblings, Grant and Riley. In his early years, Jason was a skilled athlete and participated in events. At some point in his life, he meets Liza Snow and falls in love with her. After Riley earns his pilot license, Jason and his friends began to celebrate in Thailand. While partying at a nightclub, Jason's relationship with Liza begins to strain, mainly because of his party-focused lifestyle and immature personality. Also, Jason, Keith and Riley have a fight with a group of patrons which causes them to flee. At that time, the friends meet Doug, the nightclub DJ who convinces them to go to an "island where [they] can do anything...". What Jason and his friends do not know is that Doug is actually a spotter for Vaas Montenegro, the insane pirate leader.

As soon as Jason and his friends land on the Rook Islands, their whole lives change, leading to the events of Far Cry 3.

Here's a Concept I'm working on for the "Anyone can obtain a Monado" thing

Monado

A divine tool that can affect the material and immaterial world. This shall be the base for my next concept.

Anyone can obtain their own Monado if these conditions are met:

- Unbreakable Resolve: The person/entity in question must have a resolve that through thick and thin held tight onto that resolve.
- The Power to Make a Change: A Monado is the embodiment of this born from the Resolve and Will to Make a change. Therefore, if Someone does NOT have the ability to make the change they seek, then their Monado will appear.

Abilities of a Monado
A Monado is the key to making the change which someone seeks to make. It grants the user the ability to make that change. i.e. Shulk was to change the future, therefore his Monado granted him the ability to see and change the future (Though his Monado is the True Monado in his world and thus has hidden abilities which go beyond this.)

To keep a Monado in balance, they will have one theme and a set of 3 abilities that tie into this theme.

Constraints of a Monado
- A Monado born from a soul will take on a shape which embodies the theme and person's goal (Most common seems to be a sword, but this is situational. They can be other things...like maybe a shield...)
Thus it's function will be defined by its shape.
Also there is another Constraint:
- If the wielder's resolve falters or is weak, The Monado will harm it's owner. They can still force themselves to use it, but it will slowly kill them. (In Game Example: Dunban forced himself to use the Monado, and it slowly killed him. He lost the ability to use his right arm.)

Other Means to Obtain a Monado
- Replica Monados do exist and can be made. They act similar but lack certain traits (like truly granting the user to realize their resolve.)

Calling a vote for progressing to the next time cycle...



90-180 E: DUSK - Dec. 24
0-90 E: DAY - Dec. 24
90 W-0: DAWN - Dec. 24
180-90 W: NIGHT - Dec. 23

This would be the change.

@Cucoo

Ehh, not quite yet. By my perception of the events and how long they would take, it would be about 2:00-3:00 PM in Japan. They still have plenty of time.

Item: Monado
Spoiler
Game of Origin: Xenoblade Chronicles

Power: Grants the wielder foresight and the ability to change the future through abilities specific abilities.

Weaknesses: Can't Harm People, Apocrypha (Giant generator that disables the Monado)

Appearance:

Spoiler



Characteristics:
Originally posted by wiki

The Monado is a powerful energy blade that can manipulate the ether around it, and with it, change the material and immaterial shape of the world. The use of the Monado depends on the will of its user; most Homs who try to use the sword cannot control it. At the beginning of the game, the Monado cannot harm any Hom from Bionis.

The Monado grants its elected wielder the power of foresight. It is said that foresight is possible because all of the ether in the world is calculable in its changes. This allows the user to see where every ether particle is, was, and will be.

The Monado emits a particular ether wavelength in its ground state that attracts Telethia. Also, the Monado can be counteracted by using opposing particles of the ones the Monado uses.


Notes: The first known Hom wielder of the Monado, Dunban, was able to somewhat control the sword and use it as a weapon against the Mechon at the Battle of Sword Valley. In doing so, he was able to thwart an attack against Colony 9. Due to sheer discipline and strength he could wield the blade, even though he could not fully control it. Dunban unknowingly sacrificed the use of his right arm for victory in the battle against the Mechon.

Notes 2:
Harbors the soul of Zanza.

Banished Library Puzzle



- There will be 7 statues (the number of elemental stones Patchy has) which can only be activated by a constant stream of their particular element
- There will be a furnace which must be regulated (Annie) that will raise platforms and shift the room based on the amount of fire put into it (let's say there's 5 settings)
- The Statues will need to be moved onto switches after Patchy activates them (John)
- There will be walls that separate areas that can only be passed via certain means (John most likely could pass through most of them easily but everyone else would need help from Monado)
- The needed switches are invisible to the naked eye but each one can be sensed by certain means (Kenway, Renamon, and Nera)

[Did I forget someone?]




here's the starting layout



M' is moon
W' is Water

The goal is to get the letters (starting position of the statues) to their switches
...seems simple right?
Nope~ because the platforms aren't all on the same level.


Currently working on the solutions
