Username: Emm

Have you read the rules?
Yes

Character Name: Spike Clauber

Character Source: OC

Starting Location: Nos'talgia

Character Behavior:
Spike is what many would refer to as a "Wild Child", opting to be the one getting into trouble should there be trouble afoot. Now that isn't to say he's villainous by any stretch of the imagination; he's more so a misfit who can't seem to find his place in society. That being said, Spike is relatively harmless - honestly quite sweet, and finds his boisterous personality as a cherry on top of his "awesomeness" as is.

Physical Description:

Character History:

Spike hasn't been a particularly special member of Imagen Nation society throughout his life. Despite that, he always had a dream of exploring the world and seeing it all has to offer. Once he became 27, having saved up enough to live the rest of his days in comfort; he set off on a journey to do just that.-- Starting with Nos'talgia in it's entirety.

What starting Affinity does your character have? Lucky

Abilities/Skills:

ABILITY ONE:
CLAU SWIPE (RANK 2)
RANGE: CLOSE | DURATION: INSTANT
EFFECTS: DAMAGE - 100 Essence [Per Rank Of Effect]
TOTAL ESSENCE: 200 (100 x 2 )
DESCRIPTION: Spike’s fingernails become as hard and sharp as daggers as he swipes his hands in a slash like motion.

ABILITY TWO: SPICY BLAST (RANK 3)
RANGE: 5FT | DURATION: INSTANT
EFFECTS: DAMAGE (+100) Essence [Per Rank Of Effect]
MODIFIERS: REMOVABLE ( -50 )
TOTAL ESSENCE: 150 [ ( 100 x 3 ) - ( 50 x 3 ) ]
DESCRIPTION: This ability can only be used in the context that Spike has Spicy Food on his person, if it were removed from his hand before he could take a bite? This ability would be useless. That being said, when Spike consumes any kind of Spicy Food (Spike having only as much food as he orders on "Ubore Eating", picks up from around him, or has on his person prior [up to 5 per scene/conflict ] ), his eyes and mouth burn a bright red with heat as a blast of flame spews from his mouth.

ABILITY THREE: UBORE EATING (RANK 2)
RANGE: CLOSE | DURATION: 10 SECONDS
EFFECTS: VARIABLE CREATION (+200)
MODIFIERS: REMOVABLE ( -50 ) | ACTIVATION ( -50 ) | CONCENTRATION ( -50 )
TOTAL ESSENCE: 100 { ( 200 x 2 ) - ( 50 x 2 ) - ( 50 x 2 ) - ( 50 x 2 ) }
DESCRIPTION: By using the surprisingly reliable phone app “Ubore Eating”, Spike is able to order food to be delivered to his immediate location in 10 seconds or less through various cartoony methods. In order to do so, he must remain concentrated ( all 10 seconds it takes to order) on the app at all times. If he's distracted or if the phone is removed from him? This ability would be ineffective.

ABILITY FOUR: MY-PHONE ( RANK 1 )
EFFECTS: COMMUNICATION ( +100 )
MODIFIERS: REMOVABLE ( -50 )
DESCRIPTION: A standard smartphone. Can be struck from Spike's grip and or stolen.
TOTAL ESSENCE: 50 [ ( 100 x 1 ) - ( 50 x 1 ) ]

ABILITY FIVE: LIZ THE LIZARD (RANK 1)
RANGE: CLOSE | DURATION: INSTANT
EFFECTS: SUMMONING (+300 )
MODIFIERS: REMOVABLE ( -50 )
TOTAL ESSENCE: 250 [ ( 300 x 1 ) - ( 50 x 1 ) ]
DESCRIPTION: Spike’s 4’5 (6’5 with tail) lizard friend Liz is summoned from Spike’s sunglasses he keeps on his person at all times.

(LIZ ) ABILITY ONE: BELLY BASH (RANK 5)
RANGE: CLOSE | DURATION: INSTANT
EFFECTS: DAMAGE - 100 Essence [Per Rank Of Effect]
TOTAL ESSENCE: 500 (100 x Rank(5) )

Hi there, welcome to Multerra! Let me just take a quick look at your Abilities, here...

For "Spicy Blast" -- You will need to describe your modifiers in your description! How is this Damage Effect removable? Does Spike carry spicy food on him at all times, and how much? In addition, how is this ability Finite? To qualify for Finite, it must take a narratively significant amount of time for him to "reload/recharge" this ability.

Also, since you have written the range of this ability as only being 5 ft, it does not require the Ranged modifier. The Ranged modifier is only for Effects that operate outside of your character's immediate area-- beyond 10 ft.

For "Ubore Eating" -- Please mention all of your modifiers in your description, such as the Concentration and Removable modifiers! It could be something as simple as "Spike must focus his complete attention on his phone while ordering food, and if his phone is taken away from him, he won't be able to activate this ability."

In addition, if you want your character to use this phone for other purposes, you should consider purchasing it as a Communication ability. A good example of a Phone ability would be:

Phone
Communication Rank 1: Smartphone (100E)
-- Removable (-50)
Total Cost: 50E

A regular smartphone. Can be struck from [Character Name's] grip and stolen.

For "Liz the Lizard" -- The Summoning Effect on this ability would only need to be Rank 1, since Liz is only a single Summon.

As an aside and just because I'm curious, why did you format your abilities the way you did? It seems to resemble the older ability format that a few members used.

Hello hello! Thank you for taking the time to check out my application, I very much appreciate it!

I believe I've made the changes requested to my application but if there are any I missed please do let me know. Also, In regards to my formatting, I just found it to be a sleeker design in my head so I went with it; funny that it resembles an older style, that's kind of cool!

Alrighty, looks good to me! You're approved!

When you have a moment, you can post your character information in the Character Profiles section of the forum. After that point, you're free to start writing on your starting world/location-- no additional steps required!

Welcome and happy writing!

PS - I will need to change your username on the forum to match your character's name. Would you prefer Spike or Spike Clauber?
