You got a LOT of choices. Over in California there's an invasion by an angel of death, there's some stuff in Taiwan, London, DC, I could go on.




Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

Oh, such a good app from a new person with just the right balance of info in my opinion. I do have to ask one thing tough. How many characters are the currently in the rp that stands at 5ft 7?

@Katrix

No clue. I know there are a few characters that stand well below that height, and most standing over that height (like 5ft to 7ft. Somewhere within in that height range.0

What does it matter anyways?

Name: SereneGrace

Timezone: EST

NPC Character of Choice: Bang Shishigami

Game of Origin: BlazBlue

Power: Being a ninja, Bang seems to share many similar traits in his powers and fighting style. First of all, Bang is a speedy and agile character, and demonstrates an uncanny ability to maneuver through the air as if utilizing invisible platforms. He also bears a decent command of hand-to-hand combat (Taijutsu), and is a master at performing blocks and counters. Bang is also capable of an performing an ability that boosts his speed to even greater heights and allows for even more of his attacks to be linked for longer, more punishing combos. Called "Bang Shishigami Forbidden Art: Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan"(which means Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain) it is one of his strongest and more powerful techniques.

Weapons: Unique to Bang is his assortment of nails, referred to as "Bang-Style Shurikens", and he has a variety of nails for different effects. Some nails will explode, some afflict a poisoned status, some unleash a spray of webs to trap the foe, and still others can rebound off of surfaces, making them more difficult to avoid. The larger 55 inch nail on his back also known as the Phoenix: Rettenjō is a powerful weapon known as the Nox Nyctores.

The Nox Nyctores are a set of ten weapons, and were tempered as a set of close range and melee-type weapons to directly oppose the Black Beast (a beast that once caused great calamity.) An advanced tempering technique was needed to forge them, and a total of ten weapons were planned. One of which was the Phoenix: Rettenjō. The Phoenix: Rettenjō has the powerful ability to break the other Nox Weapons as well as sever the ties with the Boundary, a place where the various timelines intersect. It seems to be where things go after the events have already happened. Though only a few can see the Boundary. Bang may know of this but he cannot see the Boundary nor does he know how to use the Phoenix: Rettenjo's ability to sever it. So to him it's basically a large almost indesctrucible nail.

Weaknesses: Underneath all his abilities, his gruff and heroic demeanor, and his ninja-like abilities Bang is still human through and through albeit tougher due to extensive training when he was younger. Due to his fighting style he prefers to fight using both complex and simple counters and blocks to overwhelm opponents as he does not possess extreme amounts of super-human strength (though he has enough physical strength to wield the Phoenix: Rettenjō with ease.) Relying on his speed and Taijutsu to defeat opponents, and yet sometimes that isn't even enough.

Appearance: He stands at 6ft 3, and is in his mid to late 30's.

Personality: Bang can be quite over-exuberant, and he is prone to speeches and tangents as well as making dramatic entrances. He has a romantic fascination with Litchi, always willing to go charging in headlong if he sees someone making her upset. He is a man with great pride in his home and tolerates no ill words towards it or his master. Though many members of the cast ridicule him and think of him as annoying, he protects those he cares about (such as Carl and Taokaka) with his life, and has a heart of gold. He thinks of himself as the "Hero of Justice", and the one to punish all evil doers.

Bang, however, possesses a lot of standards that display quite a bit of wisdom. He is capable of eventually forgiving Jin despite his murder of Tenjō Amanohokosaka, admitting himself to be an idiot. Likewise, he is not that overly blinded with his infatuation with Litchi that even if she asked nicely, he would not hand over his nail, recognizing her allegiance with NOL.

Another trait that he shared with Litchi is his genuine love for children; he would do everything to protect them, and the sight of them being hurt badly and for no reason are one of the things that would tempt him to consider breaking his 'no-kill' policy, as shown in his rage towards Hazama in his Story Mode when he saw him beat down Carl and Tao for no reason. However, he also has a bad habit of instantly calling some of the children he saw as 'his apprentice'. Carl has begun to take that consideration well and nicely, but Platinum is highly annoyed at this treatment.

Morality: Heroic Good if it isn't obvious by his personality.

Biography:
Spoiler After losing his home in the Ikaruga Civil War and his master Tenjō Amanohokosaka at the hands of Jin Kisaragi, Bang and his followers began living in Kagutsuchi waiting for the right moment to strike back at Jin and the NOL. There, he declares himself a hero of love and justice, and dedicates himself to exterminating evil and overturning injustice wherever he goes. Over time, Tenjō's teaching prevailed over him, and Bang develops a strict 'no-kill' policy, which means he would never stoop so low as to kill his enemies, even Jin, despite how much he hates him. However, he states in his story line that upon meeting Hazama that he must be killed, perhaps meaning that his 'no-kill' policy does not extend to the truly evil.

He has a romantic fascination with Litchi, always willing to go charging in headlong if he sees someone making her upset. He is overzealous in every way, subtlety not usually at the forefront of his mind. However, his fiery spirit and will have earned him the respect of a few characters, most notably Hakumen. His first and foremost duty is to protect the citizens of Ikaruga, which was the reason why he also wants Ragna's bounty: to rebuild the glory of Ikaruga.

n Continuum Shift, he goes on a mission to find his Master's child, although as his story revealed, his true ending in Calamity Trigger did occur and he survived the beating he got from Hakumen rather than dying (his death was a story made up by Taokaka). There is an inactive, unknown Nox Nyctores within his possession. This is earlier stated by Rachel in Calamity Trigger. This Nox Nyctores turns out to be Phoenix: Rettenjō, the Nox Nyctores with the power to sever connections with the Boundary. Trinity informs Bang of this, but vanishes before he could gather further information about it. Trinity also revealed to him that his true enemy was not Jin, but the system within NOL. After an encounter with Hazama, Bang decided to travel to Ikaruga to uncover further mysteries about its destruction and NOL's involvement in it.

In Chronophantasma Bang runs throughout Ikaruga searching for answers about his Nox Nyctores and his master, Tenjō Amanohokosaka. Along the way, however, he noticed that a lot of people had been looking for his Nox Nyctores. He eventually encountered Litchi, who asked to borrow his nail, but even Bang refused, knowing that Litchi had sided with the NOL. After exchanging blows, Litchi told him that Relius Clover may know more about his nail, but warns Bang not to confront Relius. Bang did so anyway.

Relius quickly reveals that his Nox Nyctores, the Phoenix: Rettenjō, is in fact the Kushinada's Lynchpin, a device used to activate the Kushinada Device and bring about a complete mass destruction throughout the world. He also reveals that Tenjō Amanohokosaka knew of this function, but did not use it, resulting in his defeat in the Ikaruga Civil War, although if he used it, the resulting timeline would not have been any better. Bang was shocked at this revelation.

It was not known what happened to Bang after this, but now he is in the real world still seeking to protect and help others the best that he can.

Traumas: The death of his master Tenjō Amanohokosaka, and the destruction of his home town.

Notes: He is also incredibly good friends with Taokaka as he considers her an apprentice of his, and Taokaka does respect and recognize him as a mentor of sorts.

@Jasmine

Okay I like the app Jasmine, I don't see all too much with it at first glance, but luckily there will be two others you need to accept it after me.

So accepted from me. Now let's see what the others think.
