Sofia's Regalia Empty Sofia's Regalia

Sat Dec 30, 2017 9:38 am

    Regalia Name: Rona

    Regalia Type: Noble Mythic

    Regalia Travel Form Appearance: During most occasions, Rona takes the form of a rather ornate and expensive looking ring. It seems to be made out of highly prized and sought after materials, namely gold and silver. The tonalities are presented in a way that speaks to both its artistic portrayal and beautiful craftsmanship. In addition, one area of the ring is lined up with a row of multiple small diamonds of the purest kind. And to finish off the piece with a more personalized look, the ring possesses an emblem a letter that can read either M or W depending on it is looked at. Regardless it’s a befitting symbol for Sofia as it indicates both her letter M, for The Melody, and the letter W, for the Wandenreich.

    Weapon Form: When called into its weapon form, the ring glows and disappears before appearing once more in the form of a sword. It’s a one handed sword with a deep and dark ebony handle and a pommel at its distal end that seems to be made out of highly polished and smoothed out diamond. The diamond piece looks as though it could take an accessory like a ribbon or a cord if she so desired. Interlaced at the proximal and distal end of the handle are intricate and ornate golden inlays that add flair and class to an already dazzling weapon. Towards the top of the handle, the golden inlay transitions into what appears to be the design of a winged creature, made in its entirety out of gold. Though the nature of the figure is largely unknown, Sofia understands it as the deity or personification of what Rona represents. From where the head of the figure is placed, a light glow and smoke of a blue colored hue seems to emanate, almost resembling the mist at the end of a waterfall, but much darker as if it belonged to the sea, at a far off and uncharted island.

    And extending out from the hilt, a sizable blade with a prominent belly finishes what’s already an artistically prominent weapon and culminates it into a truly innovative artistic wonder. Though there are patterns along the length of the blade, is the high polished shine and glow of its edge that catches the most attention. Still, one ought to take caution and avoid dismissing the sword’s capabilities based solely in its artistic design and its intrinsic beauty. After all as expected, beyond serving as a blade should, and aside from its own individual and unique abilities, Sofia may freely choose to run any of her own techniques through the weapon.

    Ranged Elements: To follow suit with the versatility of her equipment, the weapon can be fired as an arrow would from one of her bows if she so desires. However, as a built in mechanic of the blade, should the sword be separated from Sofia in any way, she can will for it to dematerialize and materialize back into her hands.

    Abilities:

    Beauty Projection: This ability unfortunately cannot be used by Sofia in Rona’s weapon form. It can only be used when Rona is in her Origin Form. In essence, when Rona is faced up against spiritual creations whose gender are unlike hers, her beauty is projected in a rather unnatural way, causing the creatures to be compelled to not just stop their attacks against her but also to protect her, be it from their master or anyone else. However, the ability possesses a long list of caveats as is to be expected. For starters, as explained, the ability is only accessible by Rona, and only in her Origin Form. Beyond that, female spiritual creatures are not the only one unaffected by the ability. While androgynous or multigendered creatures would still be affected by the fact that their gender is indeed different, creations with no gender to begin with, like robots or machines would be spared from its effects. Under no circumstances can this ability affect the player character. And even more, despite the technique being effective for as long as Rona out in the field in her Origin Form, spiritual creatures under its effects whose tier exceeds that of Sofia will be exempt, and become able to regain composure after just three posts regularly, and five during Vollstanding to account for the excessive surge in spiritual energy. And unfortunately, though the time afflicted may seem lengthy, it truly isn’t, since once the allotted posts have elapsed, said spiritual creature would not be able to be affected again in the same battle.

    Wings of Judgment: During either its Weapon Form or her Origin Form, Rona is able to project and manipulate a plethora of feathers that take on a very peculiar set of attributes. In weapon form, Sofia merely has to point or swing the blade. In her Origin Form, Rona will usually flap her wings to cause its effects although she doesn’t necessarily have to, as simply willing it can suffice. In any case, the motion creates around 500 feathers per time used. Each feather isn’t very big at all, averaging out about three to four inches in length, and about one inch in width. And though momentarily they may appear to be of a gray like hue, contact with the reishi or reiryoku around them causes them to reflect and glow in a way that makes them appear as though they were made of a silvery white light, almost resembling a form of angelic snow.

    The feathers however are manipulated into becoming an odd but highly resistant and powerful spiritual alloy that although certainly resembling a form of metal, cannot be fully categorized as such, as it’s truly something else entirely. However the look and the inherent sharpness of the feathers are very obvious once they’re used. They’re all sharp at the tip and along both of its lengths. And while the feathers may be fired into one singular spot, or made to cover a wide area when fired in an arch, they’re nonetheless able to be controlled by either of them. In essence, either Sofia or Rona can manipulate the multitude of feathers to be used as either a form of offense or defense under a variety of circumstances. And during Origin Form only, Rona may apply that same ability directly onto her wings to use them as large blades. Unfortunately, the technique does come with its own lengthy set of limitations. For the most part, only a total of 1,000 feathers can be controlled while on Weapon Form, and 2,000 when Rona is on her Origin Form. If the ability however is used while Sofia is in her Vollstanding release, then the ceiling amount of feathers controlled is doubled.

    Music Blasts: Either from the blade in Weapon Form or from her mouth in Origin Form, Rona is able to project an extremely loud sound that’s comparable to a form of song that’s simply played way too high. The sonic blasts do not contain any mass and therefore do not possess any density; all they do is pressurize the air and push forth the waves of sound at extremely fast speeds. The ability can only travel up two speeds of Mach 3 in Weapon Form or Mach 5 in Origin Form, though accessing the release of Vollstanding allows for their speed potential to double in response to the massive increase in energy and power output. Despite the musical nature of the ability, the sounds are rather loud and deafening, almost like a Banshee’s screech. In fact, the decibel count it’s so high that it can shatter any glass construct with ease.

    When projected against techniques created by a being whose tier isn’t more than one above hers, then the music projection can actually destabilize the technique and cause it to break down. However, the effect only works for one technique at a time. As such, multiple techniques faced up against her music projection would only amount to one of them being destroyed. And what’s more, with opponents whose tier is more than two above hers, then the difference in power is simply too much, and all the ability can accomplish is moving or altering the direction of one technique. The only circumstance that sees change when she accesses her Vollstanding is the number of affected techniques increasing to two, to account for the massive and additional amounts of energy that allow for such a thing. Those whose tiers are below hers however would incur a form of disorientation from the sounds overloading their hearing, though it would only last for about three posts.

    Gift of the Sirens: In mythology, Sirens almost always resided in islands, by the cliffs, and rather near the water where they usually led victims to their death. At will, Rona is able to control existing bodies of water or create it herself. Either through her mind or through the sword in Weapon Form, Rona is able to either utilize the available moisture in the air or water in her vicinity. If need be however, the ability literally exchanges reishi in the vicinity or reiryoku from Sofia to convert it into water. It’s almost as if Rona was trying to recreate a visualization of her home through any means necessary.

    The water can be controlled to be fired like straight beams, or in the form of bubbles or any aspect Sofia desires. In doing so, she’s also able to manipulate how thick or thin, or long or short the projections of said water techniques are. Following suit with the versatility of water, and Sofia for that matter, the variety of constructs and possibilities with the ability enables her to make use of it in either an offensive or defensive manner. However, there are limits as Sofia can’t simply create an ocean’s worth of water with a single swing. Per post, Sofia is only able to create up to an Olympic pool’s volume of water. And interestingly, so long as the technique is active Sofia is allowed the ability to breathe under water, much like Rona can in her Origin Form.

    Siren’s Song: The magnum opus in Rona’s repertoire, the ability encompasses everything that she is and separates her kind from the rest. When in Weapon Form, cutting the target or even clashing blades against Sofia would trigger its effects. In essence, the target is left in a form of temporary trance or stasis where they are literally drawn to Sofia, or when in Origin Form, to Rona. It’s not so much that Sofia is forcing them to go where she is, but rather that the target craves to be near her and will do whatever it takes in order to accomplish it. As such, they can’t think or do anything other than whatever it’s to be next to her. Whether they have to walk over fire or on spikes, pain wouldn’t faze them as the sole reason for the existence, for the time being is to simply be next to her. Of course any pain inflicted would be felt once the ability wore off. On the flipside, on Origin Form, Rona simply sings to create its effects. The ability is symbolic of the most well-known and notorious ability of the Sirens to lure people with their magical voice and to their doom.

    A technique of such a caliber however it’s not without its own share of lengthy and disadvantageous caveats. For starters, everything is highly dependent on tier. While Rona is able to affect any number of targets (in either Weapon or Spirit Form) so long as their tier is below Sofia’s, those who whose tier matches her own, are only affected for a maximum of two extra posts. And those who tier exceeds hers are only affected for one extra post. But the downfalls don’t stop there. Since the technique leaves the target vulnerable, Sofia can’t truly use it to her advantage in order to hurt them. For instance, if Sofia creates an attack after the ability is active, and it hits them successfully, the target would find they’re freed from the ability regardless of tier or duration. And if that wasn’t enough, any target that has been afflicted by Siren’s Song cannot fall victim to its effects again for the next four posts. And even still, somehow, those whose mastery of Mental Deduction or Focus is of Master would see no effects from the ability, thus rendering her most powerful technique: useless. During her Vollstanding release, any use of the ability or its ongoing cooldown would see its duration cut in half.

    Origin Form Appearance: Rona’s Origin Form is that of a Siren. Standing at just around 6’0” feet tall, the half woman half bird creature seems as elegant as it is powerful and beautiful. Speaking of the latter, though beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Rona tweaks that notion just so. In essence, though she does appear to be fairly good looking, her mythical race has the unique trait of appearing beautiful to anyone, no matter what. The dark color of her feathers is nicely matched by the similar hues of her hair. And with skin as fair as Sofia’s, the golden ornament on her head seems not only reminiscent of the gold accents on Sofia’s main Quincy uniform but also as a way to denote Rona as queen among the Sirens, just like Sofia views herself as queen among her people.

[adm]Only a small issue.

Siren’s Song

I would prefer that this has another limit: where people with Advanced or higher Mental Deduction or Focus to be able to ignore the effects of this.[/adm]

To follow suit with the same set of restrictions on the ability, can I specify that whomever has a higher focus mastery than hers and a higher tier can ignore its effects? Since the last available downfall talks about tier, it makes sense.

After seeing how you responded to Henrex's fix, as well as your general demeanor throughout the process, I've been led to the decision that Siren's Song will be denied as an ability in it's entiriety. The rest of your upgrade has been approved.[/mod]
