would be interesting if a spy faked their death, perhaps their house is getting close to something that could expose the plot so to distract them they fake their death like you said, as a means to get the house distracted, due to grief and stuff, to maybe take on a different appearance and get rid of the evidence they have found so far?????
or maybe a spy causes the death of a housemate as well?? since they would be working against them

Slitherer/Golden Deer Character - done, I think. Julius Farley (Akakios) | 17 | Male | Golden Deer | Dancer (Has access to the Trickster class) | No Crest | Julius has short pale pink hair and lavender eyes. He's about average height and of lean build. Akakios is slightly taller, has short and messy white hair and purple eyes with black sclerae. | Julius is a mostly kind and cheerful boy who tends to speak his mind. Because of that he can be pretty blunt at times and might come across as disrespectful. He's insecure about his status, especially around nobles, but hides it beneath a mask of confidence and sometimes he can be pretty cocky. More than anything he wants to be recognized as someone special or just worthy of respect but deep down he knows he's just an ordinary commoner. He'll try to befriend as many people as he can. Akakios on the other hand doesn't care at all about bonds and friendship. Instead he tries to sow distrust and loves nothing more than when people turn on each other. The mere thought of people from the Empire, Alliance and Kingdom wanting to live in relative peace is just laughable to him. He tries his best to play the role of the one he replaces but sometimes his real personality shines through. He looks down on the "surface-dwellers" and, like most Agarthans, sees them as inferior and worthless. Despite that he is capable of caring about others and he is quite friendly to other Agarthans. | Julius is mostly interested in learning anything that's considered either difficult or unusual. He also has a great interest in exploring and adventuring. Akakios is curious about the life the surface dwellers lead, even if he would never admit it. He's also interested in figuring out what makes people trust or betray each other. | Julius likes to try out new things in hopes of finding something he's particulary good at. He also likes to compete with others. Akakios likes to train. He also enjoys making up rumors. Both Julius and Akakios enjoy dancing. | Julius hates being ignored and he doesn't like people who have no appreciation for art. He's not a fan of strict rules, especially when they make no sense to him, and he doesn't like sweet food. Akakios despises the surface-dwellers and the Church of Seiros. He also doesn't take kindly to "outsiders", especially those who bear a crest. He hates bitter food. | Akakios is the son of the Agarthans Demophon and Euanthe. The parents of Julius are Jonas Farley and Nadja Farley. He has two younger siblings, the twins Levin and Cora. | Akakios has spent most of his life underground and was raised to despise the surface-dwellers and especially those who call themself the "children of the Goddess". The only times he's been to the surface were for the sole purpose of gathering information on those who would attend the Officers Academy. Now he was given the task of posing as one of the students and keeping an eye on the church's activities, the outsiders and the beastkin. Julius grew up in a town in the Leicester Alliance. While he would usually help his father, a cooper, with his work he actually has little interest in barrel making and discovered his passion for dancing pretty early on. As kids he and his siblings were known for being rambunctious and for persuading almost every other kid they met into playing with them. | Akakios' strengths are in Reason, Sword and Axe. His weaknesses are in Faith, Riding and Lance. He pretends to be bad at Reason and tries to hide his weakness in Faith. | Pineclaw | Personal Skill United We Fall - Allies and foes within a range of 1~2 suffer a penalty to stats that would usually be boosted by supports. Severity based on affected unit's support level. -----
Both are great options. Kinda hard to decide on just one. If we're doing the 'faking their death'-thing I guess I could offer Julius/Akakios for that unless either of you wants to use their character for it. And if we're doing the latter, I don't know yet. Does anyone want to kill off one of their characters?

I only have four characters, so I guess taking out one of mine wouldn't be good lakdjfak;sjdf If we did the faking their death route, it could make for some fun drama and betrayal later on :0

Time stuff: now that day 1 is officially coming to a close (ish), I want to say that I was planning for us to rp the first few days and then start skipping. Obviously we can't rp every single day because classes would get samey and whatnot. I guess we can just play it by ear and decide what days we want to follow through on as they happen. Slightly related, I'm thinking of changing the weekly special to the daily special so that the students don't have to stomach an entire week of Saghert and Cream :')
Also, super far down the line, we should totally write paired endings for our characters. That'd be real cute.

i tend to find my self torturing my happy/sunshine/cinnamon roll personality characters, and since that is neason, i guess he will be my torture oc for this rp
and angst can add a lot to a story, can give obstacles for the character to over come, and provides character development

I'm going to need to note down all our plot stuff! Look, when we're like 9 months into this thing and everyone is super close, the angst is truly going to be at it's peak. I feel sorry for everyone. No angst will match an entire week of Saghert and Cream though. In fact, I may add the list of dishes to the front page for conveniences sake.

It could make the reveal that the one they met again at the academy was just some evil douchebag in disguise more fun.
And yes to the time stuff, Sussuru! Especially the weekly/daily specials. Not even Agnar and Nora could stand an entire week of Saghert and Cream and Jasmine and maybe Vincent would probably have a mental breakdown.

Haha, thanks. Only did that because there seems to be a greek theme when it comes to Agarthan names. When I saw that name and its meaning I just knew I had to give it to a baddie because of the irony!

I think I'm done with my new character. He only has his own set of strengths and weaknesses because faking all of someone else's would probably be too difficult for him to pull off. Same goes for his personal skill, he only has his own.
Speaking of his skill, I might need some help with its description.
United We Fall - Reverses support bonus of opponents and nearby units (negative "bonus" for those units, lowers their stats. The stronger their bond the worse the "bonus")
I need something better than "reverse" to get the point across but I'm drawing a blank here.

Post by Sussuru on Apr 3, 2021 7:51:19 GMT -5
That makes sense. I'll be doing the same.
I understand it. 'Penalty' instead of 'bonus' might make it clearer?

Not sure if I'm completely done with her. Let me know if you think she fits better with one of the spies or the other. Otherwise I guess I'll pick? Adora von Sangrey (Keres) | 18 | Female | Black Eagles | Noble (Access to Thief) | No Crest | Adora is a slender girl with long wine-red hair tied up in a low-hanging flower braid ponytail. She has a heart-shaped face and a beauty mark beneath her right eye. Her eyes are a murky hazel. The uniform she wears has had no modifications apart from a bright red sash tied around her wrist. Keres, meanwhile, has inky hair and pale grey eyes with black sclerae. She retains a streak of Adora’s red hair within her own and possesses no beauty mark. | Adora is a passionate and kindly girl, something of a sisterly presence amongst the students of the newest class of Garreg Mach. She is protective of her comrades and is more than willing to make sacrifices for them when need be. Despite these more positive traits, she can be quite arrogant and prideful, often placing great confidence in her skills and appearance. She is also a bit of flirt at times, liking to tease her peers when she gets the chance. Her sharp tongue can make her difficult to talk to and she may not take well to being bossed around, but she is a capable ally in a fight. Some of these traits happen to overlap with Keres’ personality, however, she is typically much more apathetic than Adora is as well as being calmer, a practical thinker. The spy behind the mask has a broken moral compass and is selfish, wishing to keep her friends safe, but not sparing much of a thought for others. She holds disdain for the surface-dwellers just like her fellows and she has a sadistic streak that can make itself known inside the thick of battle. Keres has an unfortunate penchant for getting lost within the role she plays, the lines between her and her Adora persona blurring with increasing intensity. So far she has been able to hide it well enough, but it is difficult for her to distinguish which is which sometimes, leading her to be too sympathetic towards the enemy or adversely, show too much of her true character. | Interests: acting, fashion, archery, poison-making, espionage. | Likes: blood-shed, bittersweet foods, lying, the theatre. | Dislikes: strict rules, naivety, insects, harm befalling her comrades, faith. | Adora is the daughter of Alexander and Lillian von Sangrey, minor nobles within the empire. She is an aspiring actress, having appeared in a few fairly successful stage productions since her debut at the age of 15. Keres is an orphan and adoptive older sister to her fellow spy, Aeschylus. Her relationship with her brother is complicated in that she cares about him and protects him from the ire of others, but finds herself secretly resenting the side of him that isn't Agarthan. Keres has been impersonating Adora for two years as she was originally meant to infiltrate the academy earlier, but the operation was called off. She has spent the time keeping her ear to the ground and building connections to further secure the worm in the apple that is the church. The Agarthans have used her as an assassin in the past. | Her strength is in bow. She has a hidden talent in sword and a weakness in faith. | Sussuru | Sanguine Stage | Her critical chance rises per enemy she kills with a bow. Stacks up to five times.

I think either option would work and I still wouldn't mind our characters being adoptive siblings. Keep in mind though that Ember's character is only half-Agarthan so depending on Keres' view on that it could make for an interesting dynamic between them.

Ah ha. That is true. Has Akakios been impersonating Julius since he was a child? Just wondering if Keres should have been impersonating Adora for longer.
