Darkfyre I know, I know... We're all doing what we can, but when people just don't show up for a while... there's not a lot anyone can do, apart from hoping they'll get back really soon. Besides there can be all kinds of reasons for not posting. Believe me, I know all about it. And it's just not fair to demand of someone that they post something. Yes, I agree that a leader should be online regularly, but unforseen things happen... Oh, totally understandable, Darkfyre. But, as I stated very clearly in my chat's forum. "If you are staff, and cannot even post something to your fellow teammates that you will be away for an extended period of time, it is simply a sign of laziness. Only two minutes is needed to post on the forums or email. You don't even have to give a reason. Just let us know you will be away for awhile." Now, just replace all the staff related context with guild and clan related context, and it fits perfectly in this situation. I am really trying not to be rude about this...but every day I hop on this thread, to check if Kuja has posted anything. As I stated before, I work two IRL jobs, ontop of I am a chat moderator of another site, which demands alot of my attention. I feel I am wasting my time coming in here every day to see nothing from him. Though, I also don't want to miss a day, incase he does post something and then everyone is waiting on me. Summary? Just let us know you will be gone for awhile...that way we aren't waiting about on you when we could be focusing our times on something else we could be doing in the meantime. P.S. I am normally not this pissy or impatient. But, as I stated before, this exact thing happened the first time I applied. Kuja went MIA for a long while and I never heard anything about my application. I didn't say anything back then, and nothing was done. I am back now, and stating my piece. Maybe in doing so, I will be able to accomplish more. Nothing can be accomplished with silence.

I understand, Prion, I really do. It's happened to me before.... Grr! Not here, though. Just be patient and do what I do with that thread: look once a week, chat with other people while you wait, and practice roleplaying situations in your head or the clannless area.

Fritz_flame Name razz syke Gender:M Clan biggrin eath(if possible)) Class:Ninja Desired lvl1 Element:Hmm? Personality:..LEAVE ME ALONE!!! History:....none. Appearance:  Other:... I, uh, suggest that you read the "Clan Wars Rules, Spells, and Bios" thread. It would tell you what you need to know about the Elements and show you some examples of bios that people have done. You might want to elaborate much more on your personality, history, and appearance(I don't think we accept pictures, but no one else has tried it before) if you want Kuja to accept you into his clan.

My gosh, Fritz looks almost exactly like I did a while back. I had different hair, though, and I was standing and I had a whip. o_O But yes, elaborate more. Especially on personality and history, because "LEAVE ME ALONE" doesn't say much. If you don't have a history, you just popped out of relatively thin air with no reason, no purpose whatsoever. As an added side effect, is anyone asks about your past.. "Er, well, I don't have one." So just think about that.

I guess its best if i repost my bio:
Name: Chivato Innart Gender: Male Clan: Death Class: Ninja Desired lvl1 Element: Shadow Personality: Chivato is man whom is not much for words unless necessary. he is a very determined character and punishes himself for any mistakes made. once given an objective his main aim is to complete it by any means necessary even if it means self sacrifice. History: Not much is known of him, except the fact that he is the only ninja who was forced to watch his family manipulated and driven to kill each other and the person esponsible for it escaped after leaving him hung unconscious from a tree. He now lives in the shadows and vows to someday avenge the manipulated massacre of the innart shinobi clan. Appearance: Hidden, but mainly dark and(although not shown unless his shirt is taken off) a branded mark of a wolf on his chest Other:

Before I post my own profile, I'd like to know two things. What clans have free spots? And what positions are they looking for? (I'm a all-around kind of guy, but I like close combat since myself, and my characters, always having some good training in martial arts. Though I do like to defend things, people, whatever. Just I'm majorly offensive XD, (I guess as they put it "Offense is the best defense".)

I think Life and Sky are most looking for new members...
A Sky Clan monk is a good unarmed martial artist, and a fencer is good at close combat as well.
For Life there's the swordsman, who could be played as a kind of samurai I guess, and the Paladin, who is a very strong close combat fighter.

Prion Ranted about people not being here. biggrin That's why I stepped down as Clan Leader. As an entering freshmen in college I didn't know if I was going to have enough time to lead a clan like that, so went for a mod position instead. blaugh I'd say check back every other day or so. sweatdrop And you aren't being rude really. It is more courteous to let everyone know when you're in charge of something if you're going to be out for a few days. And on that note, as a general disclaimer, as long as we're not doing something that requires my immediate presence, I'm in and out of here every... other day or so. Less frequently currently because of finals and end of quarter business. And oh yeah, Frink: So in the EG... >.> I love my mod chara. :sob: Which reminds me. I still need to submit my other chara's modified bio... /swt Fritz: We don't accept pictures. You can use a picture in addition to words describing your appearance. But your bio will not be accepted until you use words and read the Rules/Spells/Bios thread. And also seeing as how Death is... teeming... you may want to reconsider a different clan as well, since you essentially have to make a whole new bio. "Leave me alone" can be taken many different ways too... he could be a very angry young person, he could be emo, depressed... all the above, PMSing, or very antisocial, which is why you won't be accepted until you elaborate. ^^ I can pretty much tell you now that Kuja won't accept you until you DO elaborate as well as state your desired element. Clans with small amounts of people have free spots. xd And if you don't find a class that suits your fancy, be creative and make something up (just make sure not to give it the same name as anything else rofl ) and run it by the mods.

Well anyway in that case I just changed a few things and made my profile as best as it can be. I also DID create another Class and I hope the mods find it...useful. I shall apply too the Sky clan. Good thing though my character can go both ways, I WAS like probably tons of people go for the death clan...but I think Sky will probably be just as good.
Name: Deye Strages (Pronounced - Die) Gender: Male Clan: Sky Element: Wind
Class: Silent Assaultman - This class is a advanced version of a monk. Yet with the speed and ability of a assassin. Sometimes there are strong defenses you can't get through even with a great strength, therefore this class would be needed. In a technical term it is pretty much a assassin, however it sneaks around and then flanks the enemy from behind, destroying the defenses at a weaker point and then helping his teammates inside. This class also helps take out snipers of anykind and keeps an eye on the others while they get through. This class can also take on a big group of enemies that have a great offense and weaken them in order for the others to continue.
Weapons: His weapon is a customized pole-arm made of adamantium and is hollow with a bamboo look. It's lengths to approximately 7.7 feet long and both ends are thicker for about one foot. There are four buttons per 1.9 feet. How his weapon works though is much different than any regular pole-arm. Its name is "Ragnarok" for unknown reasons, but the way it works is through the many combinations, buttons, and pieces. The main use of it is actually the pole-arm itself, a very defensive weapon it can also cause much damage. The first part of this great weapon is the thicker ends on the pole-arm. There is a switch upon this part and when turned releases ten hook-like and very sharp pieces of metal on the one end. With such, he can make the hooks open wide or close shut by rolling the center of the pole and can literally rip the skin off a man's arm.
The second feature of the Ragnarok is its ability to disconnect into four separate poles. The hollow part inside the pole is only just an inch big and inside this pole is very sharp wire. Its metal is also made from adamantium and can be used in many ways. The button upon each pole is used to position each pole at a certain length. He can create a technical mace, or a whip. The uses of it are vast, but it is mainly kept within it's pole-arm state.
Personality: Deye is one of those philosophical people, not completely serious and even more sarcastic, he hates a lot of things and is wise beyond his age. Pretty much he says all the right things in the most harsh way he can. Direct, smart, and mean in his own way. He'll tell you what he thinks and why and will not care if you like it or not. And even so, half the time he's actually quiet. He sits there and observes closely, then when he has something to say he'll say it even if he butts in. Cares nothing of what people think about him or himself either, sometimes he even shows he cares in his cruel way. And being nice is the rarest thing you'll ever see him be, just don't joke about it in front of him.
Appearance: Deye is a rather short character for his age. Standing only 5'4 he doesn't look too intimidating. However, even if one is not frightened of his height, they should be careful about his strength. His build is nothing huge either, but his strength lies within himself. His hair is pure black and is quite long; reaching to his center back, his bangs only goes below his chest. His eyes are a light blue also, sometimes from afar someone may think they're white. But the most interesting thing about him is his skin is pure white. Some might even believe he's one of the undead, but it's not at all the case. To continue, he wears quite a bit of clothing. The first layer is the leather suit that zips up from above the stomach and the sides wave out just behind the calfs like wings. The pants are different though yet, being a strong fiber-like substance that is difficult to simply cut and is also stretchy without making a sound for good leg movement. To end this attire he wears two leather gloves and round tipped boots with a strap over the hill of the foot and metal placed inside around the toe, sides, heel, and bottom so the rubber covers it for quiet walking or running. He then carries his weapon in a long pouch on his back attached to the belt in two bags where the pole-arm is seperated.
History: Deye was born within the ice country where it snowed continously. With his mother dying only have two months of his birth his Godfather, one of three commanders within a army and also a blacksmith took him into his life. Yet this Godfather, Wolf people named him, was not the kind to know how to take care of a kid. So he did as best as he could with methods of war and battle. He caught Deye how to play chess when he was only two and had him being able to beat anyone when he was four. This was also the age the boy began his training with a teacher within the academy near the village. The art was a foriegn style not many advised to take, but in the eyes of Wolf he understood very well how productive it was. This art was named "Muay Thai", including another instructor who studied "Ninjitsu". For the next six years they trained the boy to his peek and once he turned ten, pushed him into his first battle.
The war was against a few other villages who were angry at them for having too much power within their military so they rebelled and tried to bring them down. This is also the beginning of Deye's favorite weapon, the pole-arm. At first he used a set of three bamboo sticks, since they would break after hitting at least fifteen men. He even used the bamboo as strands like a claw when it shredded itself and tied it at the point before it could break. This was very effective as he could take the enemies weapons out of there hands and rip them apart heavily. By the time he was fifteen he was already a rank of Captains for one of the fleets they used for flanking. He was quite famous in his village also for being the youngest soldier to ever get such a rank with such skill and made his Godfather quite proud. Since then he's never been beaten at Chess, even helped create strategies within vital battles and has respect of many. But when he was sixteen he had gone into battle with a strong feeling of fear, but continued to do his job as his group and the army tried to take over a castle.
It was then the use of guns came into power and with connections and power, the King of this castle had ordered many and took out almost the entire fleet until they retreated, Wolf being one of the first killed. After that his village disbanded the army and made a militia, angering Deye and he finally going out on his own, leaving the village and disowning whatever respect he had from such people. His lost pushed him into quite the depression and he became a mercenary. He took jobs from other armies, political people, and even some assassinations. His reputation was destroyed above, but underground people began to know and fear his name. It really began when he turned seventeen and began working on another style that included the use of his pole-arm, and for three years pushed himself to the limits in training and finally had mastered it when he was twenty. Since then, he has been able to take on big groups of bandits, gangs, and even soldiers and was a great pawn upon the battlefield. But he was controlled by no one and not one person dared to try and do so.
For the next five years he stayed within the Mercenary business and gained quite the sum of money, beginning to travel more and take different kinds of jobs, any job. High investors hire him for any real need of physical combat. Though lately he's been hiding from most people and hasn't been seen. No one knows his plans and some even fear what he might do next. The fear of his unpredictability shows how far his name has stretched in the underground. Other: None

I think that's the longest bio entry we've had in a while! heart
*readread* ninja
[EDIT]
Let the commenting begin. And comments, I have. domokun
First, the class. A class CAN NOT give you magic tricks. Magic is only learnt from the elements/spells you choose. A class gives you your fighting style, your 'normal' abilities... but it can't give you magic.
Second, equipment. It's a bit uber, especially the armor. So it's impenetrable and resists everything but hardly weighs anything? I don't think so.
Next up, race. Since Dragons don't exist in Clan Wars, you can't be the descendant of one. Simple as that. Also, vampires don't exist in CW either AFAIK, so you can't be raised by one. The whole "immune to pain and whatnot" and increased strenght, speed, everything... it's all far too much, no matter what kind of story you make to back it up.

Well I pretty much just made it off the top of my head...the suit armor I've actually used before. Though I made the Illusionary technique out of his properties of his blood, but no worries I really don't mind. I'll tweak it some ^_^.
Plus I was not sure what excisted so again I just made some stuff up.
