Gender: Female
Height: 5’2"
Weight: 103LBs
Element: Mercury/Water
Level: 16
Class: Ice Summoner (?)
Alignment: Neutral
Personality:
Lucia is a rather frigid woman. Growing up in a strict household with parents who continuously maintained a professional attitude even toward their daughter, she developed an icy indifference in regards to things as frivolous as emotions. She doesn't speak often – choosing to be a silent observer as oppose to placing herself amidst a situation, but when she is required to address someone, her words tend to have a sharp quality to them, and she comes off as arrogant. However, she is not so shallow that she believes she is better than those around her; she has just developed the habit of disconnecting herself from people due to her upbringing. She’s a no nonsense kind of woman who takes her responsibilities seriously.

This will be updated regularly during the next few days since it is definitely not at all ready to be accepted. XD;
However, I appreciate any input anyone has to offer in regards to just about anything written up there. (:

I like what I see so far.
The custom psynergy appears especially creative as well as the balance of stat spread is unique and fair. Snow Globe's descriptive wording is a little confusing, however we don't really delve that deep into the battle, and I get the gist of the attack's effect and that's all that really matters.
One thing to consider: how is someone who's 97 years old only lvl 16?

Kied: Them Lemurians...Them Lemurians...
With this joke comment over, I like that you were willing to explode with the creativity ( I especially like the trade-offs you mention.) that I (who is still incredibly awesome and handsome and is currently fighting a lion with one hand while reading a newspaper with the other while I'm getting a hair cut.) suggested you should do, though I still think you need more psynergy considering your level and the current amount that you have...
...and on a side note, looking at all the other characters, I just realized that MY WEAPON IS TERRIBLE compared to everyone else's...that's what I get for storylines... owo;
The only thing I see is your current class as Ice Summoner. I dunno why but that name seems awefully lofty for the current amount of djinn you have, but that's just my own opinion, take it as you will. ;D

Ah, I'm so happy to hear that. <3
Thank you so much; I was trying to be as original as possible without mimicking other psynergy (canon or otherwise), so I did my best to think of concepts that have not been used yet. At the moment, I'm not really sure in what range of numbers her stats should be, and this may seem a bit silly, but what is the significance of Luck in the Golden Sun game? I've never thought too much on it, so I really have no clue. orz And as for Snow Globe, I know exactly what you are talking about; I am having a hard time trying to convey that the target receives 40% of damage from its own attack because it is trapped within the dome of ice. Someone suggested I use the word 'deflect', but that really isn't the case since the attack really wouldn't reach the individual/party. ^^
Ahaha, I only made her so low because I didn't want to cross the line of having an over-leveled character by the RP standards. With permission, may I please raise her level to perhaps the mid-twenties? (or really, whatever level is acceptable would be fine) I was also interested in giving her a second (Venus) djinn so that I might be able to incorperate the earth element into Chrysalis. But of course, I don't want to step over any boundary, so no big deal if I can't. ^^
Thank you so much for your critique. ^^

Ah, Leumerian would explain the level/age disparity as well as it does for Piers razz Nah, if this is the case, then 16's perfect. We're still in the early stages of the RP so lower level PCs are more balanced and have more room to grow down the road.
As for snow globe, I wasn't sure but if it does indeed reflect a certain amount of damage from enemies' own attacks back on themselves, then that's what I was thinking of originally. That does make sense in the context of the rest of the attack's effects in any event.
I look forward to seeing more! ^.^

We've been letting other people get away with two djinn, either they had a very good reason, their profile was aweshum and required it for that final aweshum, or they were a villain we needed to have a slight edge over the protagonists...so we'll wait for the profile to be done before we figure that out I guess. I'd also say raising her level up to Eighteen or as high as twenty wouldn't be too bad, though I'd stick with Eighteen just so you have more room to grow psynergy skill-wise.
I dunno why, but I just imagined the following snow globe scenario:
Rayl used Terra Strike!
Lucia used Snow Globe!

Sir, yes Sir!
/salutes
I planned on making more psynergy, but I didn't want to take it too far before getting the okay to continue.
But I am glad you are pleased with my little progress.
Oooh, should I give her a lower weapon?
I can, if you need me to.
Also, what is your policy on characters having tablets similar to those in TLA?
Ah, her class.
I can definitely change that.
To what? I'm currently not sure, but with some massive brainstorming, I'm sure something can be developed. ^^ Kiedera Ah, Leumerian would explain the level/age disparity as well as it does for Piers razz Nah, if this is the case, then 16's perfect.

I have no qualms with level sixteen. biggrin
Regardless, if I can find a better way to word it so that it doesn't confuse people, I will certainly do so. I want to make things as convenient as possible.
Hopefully I can get things figured out in the next few days so I can join the RP. ^^
I do have a question in regards to what might benefit the RP more.
Currently she is neutral, but is their a particular side you'd prefer to see her lean toward? I don't think she's really an evil character, but if she needs to interact with the villains in the RP to help progress the plot, I'd have no problem with that. ^^
Admittedly, I was rather disappointed that I joined too late for the interaction with Sen; while I was reading through the thread I kept hoping that the conflict hadn't been temporarily resolved yet. XD

Yes I am a (incredibly awesome and handsome shark fighting) ninja, I know.
oh no need to lower your weapon, I was just making an observation, it's all perfectly logical on your end. as for class name those are just my thoughts. But again: take them as you will. ;P
EDIT: Oops, I did it again!

That gives me motivation to work faster on her profile, though I still need to come up with a very good reason why she'd be interested/involved with the whole Elemental Stars/lighthouses thing.
Hm, maybe I'll go up to level 17 just because; it seems like a good compromise. XD
Ahahaha, poor Rayl.
EDIT // You are very fast at posting; I can hardly keep up with you. XD

Well STOP before you post so we can get on the same track xD: Level: I'd say seventeen is a good enough compromise. Djinn: We'll wait till it's all done. Reasons: Seeing as you are most likely Lemurian ( if you're not, you should be so that profile makes sense.), you could be at the library at the time of th- spojczsdvnrkgl -dies-. Sorry, but I don't know what really going on in the other threads so that should explain everything on this. Weapon: Don't worry, it's fine. Mine is just low due to story reasons. Class Name: It's up to you to come up with something else, doesn't really matter really, it's fine as is, just my thoughts. Psynergy: MOOOOAR!

"Ice summoner" is fine IMO. She specializes in Ice style mercury psynergy. Summoning ice = Making ice appear. Not like she's making Ice golems or anything (yet).
Being in the Library's a good start, though you'd still need to give a reason why she's there, not that that would be too difficult. The key and possibly most difficult thing to determine is the overarching goal. Driven individuals like Drake and Ryugi have clear, almost simple goals. Others, like Rayl and Maewen don't strictly have an ultimate goal they're working towards, they are more or less currently reacting to the situation, however, outside of the current scenario, as far as I understand, both are merely living in Imil, no world domination to prevent just aiming to get by day to day, and they're young enough for that to be acceptable. Closest Maewen gets is her training to become a healer, that's her 'goal.'
A character's motivations are very important when RPing. Especially in an RP with as grand a scale as this one: We've only just seen the tip of the iceberg so far. 3nodding

NO Kied, we've only seen the tip of the tip of the top of the tip of the iceberg. As for your point, Rayl has even less of a motivation, considering he's just getting by. The only motivation he really had his gone now that Maewen is safe(???), or as close to it as she will be for the next few minutes. But yes I'm not sure what Lucia's motivation could be, that's up to you. ;P

Especially in an RP with as grand a scale as this one: We've only just seen the tip of the iceberg so far. 3nodding Yes, and this is where I'm struggling the most in her profile. When roleplaying, I prefer to have a character that has some relevance to the plot, though not at all as a main character or anything like that; I just don't want to be playing a character that feels more like a place holder than a legit member of the cast. However, determining her specific motivation in the grand scheme of things is proving to be difficult; given her personality and relatively normal past, I don't know if she'd have much of an interest in the lighthouses or the Elemental Stars except for maybe fleeting opinions on current events involving them. In this case, I was wondering if it might be benefitial for her to be placed in a situation that forces her to develop more personal thoughts and feelings regarding the scenario as a whole. I also came into this with the concept that she is a neutral party based under the circumstances that I really didn't know where to have her fall in the alignment, but as I read more and familiarize myself with the story, I can't really see her doing much interacting with the heros since it's not really in her nature to stand up and say "Stop. No. This is wrong." and then proceed to brandish a shiny sword of justice at the bad guys. On a similar note: she's not really evil and interested in world domination, but it seems like maybe having her be associated with the villains could force her into a position of subjugation in which she would not be able to shrug her shoulders and go about her usual life. By no means would she be the classic damsel in distress stereotype (not that I've seen any characters like that in this RP) that stares out the tower window in hopes of being rescued; she's more of a realist and would do what is necessary to survive, and if that means cooperating with the enemy, then she'd do it with little to no protesting.
Ah wow, that is super lengthy; sorry about that. I guess my mind started working and my fingers followed its example. In any case, I hope I'm not being troublesome by expressing my thoughts like this; the last thing I want you all to think is that I'm a pain. ^^

Rayl: -had his hopes up at the damsel in distress part, but was soon left down and thus not able to do any knightly awesomeness- :< Anywho, first off I say you should post up the biography for us to look at then, thus we would be able to give you more insight into what your character could be going through to get her into the plot. So until then I can't really offer any insight myself. As for Stats I usually put random numbers that fit along the lines of what I said about them (EX. Rayl has a high attack so he started off with a higher number compared to PP, which I described as a weak point.). Also Luck in the games usually gave bonuses to other stats, so it's not really something we focus on/care about, so I'd just put average...also considering her typical skills I'd say that instead of moderate PP she should have moderately High ( or high.) PP, to fit her role and help keep her from being just about average ( besides the defense.) Also towards Kied: Ice Golems...I like where this is going. Also: Psynergy: MOOOOAR!

Fffff, Gaia is such a whore.
I wasn't able to post for the last two days.
The stupid site would just freeze up when I tried to get remotely close to the forums. >.<
Anyway, I've been working on her bio; I think I will have three parts to it: each depicting an event in her life, and they will be written more in a narrative style. I hope that's okay? I've been considering adding three more psynergy to her list, so I should have those up later on tonight once I work out the mechanics of them. I think with these last three she should be set with her psynergy, but I can add/subtract if you need me to. I'll try to choose some reasonable numbers for her stats, so when they are up there, do let me know if I need to change them. (:
