Name:Necro

Gender: Male

Personality: A shadowy loner, but is generally a good team player is nessesary. He is somewhat very sarcastic and the such like, and hates noobs, but he is really a good Knight at heart. Likes BN, Fiends, and generally almost anything most of the average playerbase hates. More intelligent is matters of science as he used to be a scientist before the Skylark crashed.

Appearance/Armor: Wears Solid Cobalt Armor and Spiral Demo helm, wears magic hood and wolver coat as costume. Colors green and green. Wears his weapons in various sheaths all over his body. Khorovod+Jalovec in special double-sheath on his back, shockburst brandish and sealed swords in a belt sheaths, Twisted snarble barb is just stuck into his belt, lightning capacitor and super blast bomb are in a criss-cross bandolier on his chest, and his Crystal Shards is in a belt bandolier. Keeps extra armor in pack on back (hey, that rhymes! Extra armor includes several Cobalt helms and armors.)

Weapons: Jalovec, Khorovod, Shockburst Brandish, Sealed Sword, Twisted SNarble Barb, Crystal Shards, Lightning capacitor, super blast bomb.

History/Background: Just a regular Knight with a dark and sarcastic attitude. Used to be a scientist on the SKylark, but that all changed when the SKylark crashed.

Relations: None. No friends/love interests/people who he enjoys their company.

Pets/Sidekicks: Breeds a small amount of greavers, as he has a profound interest in them. currently has about 20. Always takes 2-3 of them on missions.

Expendability: No. Although it would be okay for him to get severly injured, taken prisoner, the works.

Feel free to change his stuf around a bit, if you accept him and feel like it. It's your story/comic, after all.

• Name: Kyrie
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: More or less this.
• Weaponry: Peacemaker, Supernova
• Characteristics: A veteran of the Spiral Order, Kyrie serves among her fellow knights as a Field Medic. Although typically short spoken and reserved, she is always ready to risk her welfare for that of others. Her extensive surgical and mechanical expertise and lethal precision with firearms make her a valuable companion and potent adversay.
• Companion: A snow-white Snipe named Archimedes. He has a disturbing affinity to filthy places.
• Expendability/Twist: Although notably experienced, the Field of Medicine often forces Kyrie into harrowing life or death situations which threaten both herself and her allies. Determination, skill, and luck have sustained her through numerous battles...but everyone bites the dust eventually.
  Kyrie usually keeps quiet about her history, supposedly because there isn't much to tell, and her service record mostly supports this claim. Still, everyone has their secrets...

EDIT: Name updated per request.

Moderately open character profile. Some liberties are naturally acceptable.

Couple others drifting in my head. May post here later.

Iron(Close Enough) http://i529.photobucket.com/albums/dd333/Sonic402183/GrumpyEyesExample.png

Weapons:

-Combuster, with an Irontech Bomb Hacked into the Core to Power it Up.
-Irontech Bomb that has the Same Effects as a Nitronome.

History/Background

He lives with a Group of Outcast Gremlins inside the Clockworks, in a Town called Lumiville, due to the Amount of Luminite that Grows around the Village, being the Town's Protector & Blacksmith, Repairing the Gremlin's Wrenches & Pickaxes.

He is one of the 4 Mysterious Knights to Escape Various Experiments Conducted by the Spiral Order's Scientists to become the "Perfect Soldiers."
Due to the Experiments, he is now Resistant to the Statuses he Normally would be from his Mad Bomber Suit, allowing Greater Survival. He is now considered an Android.

Relations:

Tal-Best Friend; Looks after him like a Little Brother.
Grimm-Not sure...
Zero-Best Friend/ Rival; Kinda like Zolo from "One Piece."
Myra-Protects her at all times; She loves him, but he doesn't Return the Affection, because he doesn't Notice.
Rikku-Friend/ Rival; Doesn't like her Hatred toward every Monster in the Clockworks.
Friends(On SK) Jokes around them; Uses Sarcastic Remarks to make fun of them.
Everyone Else-Defiant.

'Twist': None. I would like him to stay the Way he is.

Pets/ Sidekicks: His First Friend/"Pet" is a Mecha Knight he made named "Mechas." Mechas' Appearance looks that of a Mecha Knight Kit, but with a Dark Red Re-Color, T2 Mecha Knight Visor, Firebreak Shield, & Fireburst Brandish. He Wanders around Aimlessly in Lumiville, helping the Gremlins with Work & Chores.

Expendability: At the Worst, make him Seriously Injured(Like Getting Stabbed Through the Chest, much like the one in your Comic) & Taken away to get Medical Attention. No Death.
(How would I play Spiral Knights if Iron was Dead?)

EDIT: They won't Die, because they never Venture in. They just Wave Iron a Good Trip down & Stay up.

At the Least, make him into a Cameo(Ya know, like a person walking & Talking in the Background) but if you can, make a few scenes with him talking to a Couple of the Knights.

[Sorry for the Long Post.]

Edited my last post. Any other issues?

(I'm excited!)

So I have more than a few ideas for characters... whats our limit to how many guys we can offer you?

Alright then. Maybe I'll post a few. This one's a bit more light-hearted/silly character if you can fit one in. I've put the information that I'd prefer kept together (with regards to your Creative Leeway section) in bold font (< strong >).

Name: Riefs

Gender: Male

Appearance/Armor: Red Personal Color, Blazebreak Armor, Blazebreak Helm, Swiftstrike Buckler

Personality: Generally agreeable and nice person. Seemingly fearless and actually enthusiastic to take one for the team. Actually quite intelligent with a talent for tactics but he completely disregards it along with any common sense; probably won't find it until he's an old geezer with nothing better to do. Has a heart for those who are teased and bullied. Tries to treat everyone equally but actually has more respect for the creatures of the Clockworks than his fellow knights due to how he's treated himself. Kind of independent.

Battle Style: Fire equipment (obviously), leaning towards swordsman, charges and rushes foolishly into packs of enemies, rarely shields, very fierce and fast, willing to take damage if he can take down enemies with him.

Weapons: Blazebrand, Fiery Pepperbox, Flamberge

History/Background: Follows an ancient tradition of a small family of knights in which the retired would pass down their equipment to their heirs, equipment which happened to be those that Riefs has inherited. He lost a lot of equipment to gambling including a Drake Scale Helm, a Magma Driver, and a variety of other fire-style equipment though he has now quit gambling because he's horrible at it and lost so much. He now reluctantly wears a Blazebreak Helm to follow the creed but is constantly mistaken for a female knight. Explaining that he's male only lead to teasing, bullying, and fights which have resulted in him spending the majority of his time stewing in corners by himself working out, reading "Do-it-yourself" books, playing online fantasy games, reading novels, and earning enough Crowns to get a Drake Scale set believing it will help distinguish himself as male. Is currently only interested in proving who he is and helping those who are oppressed similarly; he doesn't really care about anything else. Prefers environments where he can be himself.

'Twist' Degree: I'd prefer that Riefs be relatively unchanged from the above. Character development and progression are perfectly fine though.

Relations: Helped start a club for Clockworks creatures and knights alike who are sick of being judged and bullied. You may place him wherever you like though.

Pets/Sidekicks: None yet?

Expendability: Your choice though a fair amount of lifetime would be appreciated.

Name: Jed

Gender: Male

Weapons: Senteza, Biohazard, Polaris, Argent Peacemaker

Appearance : http://s1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh488/ManicSunrise/?action=view&curr... (Sorry for the bad scenery. This was really rushed)

Edit: http://i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh488/ManicSunrise/Jed2.png (another picture)

Bio: An ex-Member of the Levelers, which were an elite group of knights exploring the deepest depths of clockworks, Jed left after a disastrous mission in which he was the only one to survive, as he could keep his distance. He never rushes in to battle without a plan, and is constantly planning, even when he sees a single monster. He also happiest in the middle of the battle, and lives for the moment. He is also a crackshot sniper, using his sentence to snipe.

Personality: Pretty cynical and sarcastic. He also doesn't sugarcoat stuff, and will flat out tell you if he thinks it was terrible. He gets really happy when in the middle of a battle. Note that this usually starts happening whenever he's exploring. Otherwise, he acts very detached. He is usually very stark and down-to-earth, and treats honor in the same way. In his own words: "Faith and honor might help a bit, but when it really boils down to it, the only thing that matters is who's gripping the other person's head."

Relations: Is good friends with the knights Sun, a field researcher that studies monsters in the wild, and hale, a friendly genius who runs most of the frontier (A vast, unexplored area). He has also treveled with Soro, a cynical engineer who now works with Hale, and occasionally Tag, a swordsman who got Jed back into exploring, yet an enigma to all. He has also gone on a quest with Kana and Kantint.
'Twist' Degree: Can you keep his personality, as well as his senteza?
Pets/Sidekicks: Not many, though Tag was once one of his sidekicks.
Expendability:You can have him die, just as long as his death means something. Please, don't make it something like "Then a rock fell from the sky, and killed him."

Role: Probably some sort of planner, the one that tries to decided what hi team should be doing a the time.

@Happyapathy

if u have played the game, u will know that the Almirians are a race of knights or else the they won't make the ALMIRAIN CRUSADER SET for players 2 wear.
and if the part about magic is my MAGIC HOOD and CLOAK, those are helms and armor in the game..................

Name: Originally Dias, nowadays Ailment

Gender: Male

Personality: A heavy pessimist. Prefers to stay quiet and get the job done without speaking if possible. Very dark voice and a somewhat dark demeanor. Has few friends, and keeps to himself quite often, only presenting himself when he deems it important. He primarily practices swordsmanship as a means of entertainment, but also occupies his time with meditation, as well as frequent expeditions into the clockworks. Deals well with pressure, and remains calm almost the entire time. Very hard to catch him off guard. While he doesn't talk much, he is very wise and thoughtful.

Armor/Appearance: Wears his own version of Vog Cub Cap and Armor (of which I can provide should you deem this character acceptable in the Fanfic). He is slightly taller than the normal knight. Even when in a situation of a battle, he prefers to not undergo the battle-stance, as that makes him predictable.

Weapons: Always carries his signature sword Nightmare's Edge (which again, I can provide the texture), which sheaths at his side when he does not use it. Also hides a Volcanic Pepperbox for when he needs it (I have a re-texture of this that makes it slightly more realistic).

Histroy/Background: One of the best swordsman of the Spiral Order, Dias was known for being very supportive of the Order in his own ways. While he does not interact with them much, he does agree with their motives. When the Skylark crashed, he decided to look in the depths of Cradle for what, or who may be responsible for what caused the crash. After several months, he eventually found the source of the crash, but ended up mortally wounded due to being unprepared for what lied against him. However, he did not die, but instead endured several months of madness and confusion in the clockworks. When he finally did return, he came back carrying things he never had before, a garb that was much more twisted than the usual Vog Cub garbs, as well as a sword that no one recognized. He also came back and responded to a new name, seemingly forgetting his old one. His new name was Ailment. While he says he is sane and his motives remain with the order, some speculate that he still retains whatever happened to him in the clockworks. To this day, he plans on going back down there in order to find that source once again.

Relations: In good standings with many strong and skilled knights, however he keeps to himself quite a lot, thus people don't necessarily trust him. He does have a rival though, to which he has not seen since the crash of the Skylark. Many never question his actual swordsmanship, but people do question weather he is still with the order or not.

'Twist' Degree: I am pretty loose in terms of keeping him in place. This is your Fanfic after all Happyapathy, and you can do what you want with it. Just don't turn him on his head, and I am good. :)

Pets/Support: No pets, he relies upon himself pretty much. He can work with others, but he prefers to do tasks on his own. In other words, I do not have any plans to have anyone else tag along this character besides characters created by other people.

Expendability: While I would prefer for him to not die instantly, I at the same time would not be surprised if he died at the end or before so. Again, this is your Fanfic, you do what you want with him. Do what you think will suit the story best, you know your own story better than I do, so I really have no say in how long he will survive. If anything, he should only die to things he has never seen before (so, anything that is "out of the ordinary" clockworks structure).

Some pictures to help you get an idea as to what my character could look like:
Hand Drawn Version
Animated GIF I made some time ago...

I hope you consider him to be in your Fanfic, would mean quite a bit to me if he made it.

Name: Kantint

Gender: Male

Personality: Somewhat cold-hearted. Really smart and wise. He would usually use "is not" insted of "isn't." He will usually not help unless he is absolutly needed, otherwise he will watch were he can't be seen. He often may appear and disappear suddenly. He does not like to talk about his past. When someone needs it, He becomes compationete and gives advice. He refuses to let his friends die. Is usually calm at all times.

Appearance/Armor: He wears a Mercurial demo set, and has a slightly altered, more powerful version of an Ironmight plate shield.

Weapons: He has an incredibly large varety of bombs, but usually uses a Big Angry Bomb, an Electron Vortex, and the gun Valiance.

History/Background: When he was young, almost every one he knew was killed by people he does not remember. He was then taken in by the Spiral Order and became a scientist for them. To this day, he carries a poket watch given to him by his best friend who was killed, and is very protective about it.

Relations: Works as a scientist for the Spiral Order.

'Twist' Degree: I'd perfer to keep mostly the same- but you are the one making the comic.

Pets/Sidekicks: When he works, a silver Mecha knight with no weapons or sheilds and malifuntions less assists him.

Expendability: I don't want him to die eairly. If he does die, I'd like to be late in the comic and I'll mail my perfered reason for death.

Other: He is great at fighting. More importantly though, he is FREAKISHLY stealthy.

Name: Frostrex

Gender: Male

Personality: Usually cheerful, that said, he will probably make jokes while on an expedition, and try to cheer up his team. He won't take sides, and will try to resolve confilct peacefully. He will trust anyone who says they're his friend, so he is a little naive. He is a formidable fighter, but gets distracted easily.

Appearance/Armor: Clad in full Solid Cobalt armour, with the visor down, his dark blue eyes are only just visible. He carries a canteen, a side blade and has attached a comm. unit to his helmet.

Weapons: Being a newly released Spiral Knight, he weilds a shiny new Scended Calibur and straps an Avenger to his back. His shield is a shiny new Green Ward.He has a holstered Silversix, given to him by his grandfather.

History/Background: Being a fresh set of swords, Frostrex decided to go for the job as a communications technician, sending messages back and forth. He likes to play a supporting role in a squad. His family were fighters, and were not pleased when he chose this line of work.

Relations: None really. Being the newbie doesn't really get you friends...

Expendability: Frostrex can die if need be, or if the team really needs assistance, then BAM!, comm. guy is dead. But I wouldn't mind him going into a coma...

Eh...just asking, can the equipment be, like, salvaged parts of monsters(e.g. zombie head, jelly spire, etc)?
Because I made a scavenger-type character and I wanted to enter it in this fancomic.

Name: Rex

Gender:Male

Personality: kinda laid back, tries to stay out of arguments, and generally be a good friend. Will always lend a hand to friends, tho may joke around about how they needed it. Besides all that he has a short temper, and won't let something go if he knows (or thinks anyway) he is right. He tends to perform his best while under pressure.

Appearance/Armor: (this may take a minute...)
Helm: Dragon Scale helm with glow eyes (idk what u think of these with the whole "magic" thing so if you don't want them it's fine) heavy mecha wings, volcanic scarf, and heavy spike mohawk.
Armor: Snarbolax Coat with fancy parry blade, ghostly aura (same as glow eyes) and volcanic dragon wings (same as glow eyes)
Kinda like this: http://spiral.onyxbits.de/node/319
personal color: Red
Shield: Swiftstrike or Barborous Thorn Shield.

Weapons: Fang of Vog and Sentenza (I'd like to assume this will be full shadow damage rather then split ; )

History/Background: When the Skylark first crashed Rex was too shaken to be of any use to the Order. His brother on the other hand started delving as soon as they let him. Rex was confused how someone could go into something so dangerous so quickly after the crash. However, while wandering Haven one day he bumped into the Leader of Alpha Squad, Euclid. The confidence he showed in his ability and his team's ability inspired Rex. He wanted to be just like Euclid, and inspire confidence in his friends, his family, and his team. Euclid's disappearance and his brothers injury shook him at first, but it quickly turned to rage, and then boiled down into a drive like no other. He would do anything in his power to find Euclid, and the Alpha  Squad, and avenge his brother by continuing his work.

Relations: has a brother that was seriously injured in the clockworks and is now confined to the hospital. Met the leader of Alpha Squad, who inspired him to become a knight.

'Twist' Degree: your story, your call

Pets/Sidekicks: has a pet Vog cub (if that's not okay it can just be an ash tail :p). Whether he comes into the clockworks or is just a potential random conversation piece is your call.

Expendability: just like "twist": your story, your call.

If I missed anything just let me know :D

Can we at least have other hints about if or characters make it in? Also can we know if we make it as a minor or major characters?

You know Nekomi? May my character have a history with her?

@Happy:

My suggested character both comes as a non-leader type and comes hand in hand with another character; good for filling half a squad while leaving room for a leader and other, too. Just pointin' that out, in case you took anythin' I said as implications that they're to be leaders, if it helps you filter out some "leader types" :)

About the roles, I guess it's still your story and your call, but I suppose it would be nice to be a main or supporting character :P

Name: Dober

Gender: Dude

Tentative type: Supporting or minor

Personality: group clown, good guy, realist who practices safety first but dislikes superstition

Appearance/Armor: Demo suit, groundbreaker helm (not that important; can be left to your design)

Weapons: Surgebreaker shield, autogun, irontech destroyer

History/Background:
Dober is a field engineer and that means he has had a first hand look at just how incompetent and outright stupid his predecessors were when they built the world he lives in.
While he isn't exactly a "shield is half full" kind of guy, the man knows his craft and can Mcgyver up a busted mechaknight with 2 mist energy, a handful of bronze bolts and 5 feet of duct tape.
And while he's not exactly a full blown pessimist, he does like to complain that the new generation of engineers are lazy, have poor work ethics and prefer throw crystal energy at a problem to make it go away rather than fixing the root of the problem in having the right equipment for the right job.
Some could argue that he's shown a bit of paranoid behavior but to those who've seen him at work, it only makes him the first knight who made it to the escape pod when the Skylark went down with enough time to spare to message "I told you so" to the ship-wide interphone.
Being tossed around squads as needs for repairs and maintenance arise, he is easy to get along with but has the most affinity for machinery, often naming the mechaknights and turrets he repairs.

Relations:
Nerd cred abounds!
His superiors know him as a reliable repairman; the rest of the corps refer to him as the creature from the math-lagoon.

'Twist' Degree:
Dober is somewhat of a recluse who talks to his computer and sometimes lets slip his 150 ton "secret project".
Great freedoms can be taken as to what he really does in his dark room with his supercomputer and that broadband connection.

Pets/Sidekicks:
While he doesn't have a pet per say, he often repairs and gets attached to derelict mechanical constructs he runs into, sequentially naming them "dobs junior".

Expandability:
While there is a lot of poetic comedy in the tinfoilhat-wearer of the group dying, there's no reason why he can't make it to the end to deliver a cheesy line about everything being the fault of poor clockworks designs; however, if he has to die, I'd like to think that he will probably have managed to do so with hilarious irony.

Name: Emerald
Gender: Female

Personality: Fun-loving, friendly little would-never-hurt-a-fly-Blue.
That's when people are around.
She's a killer with a lust to destroy the spiral order. She hates in with every molecule in her body. Of course, no one knows. She loves nature (Especially al the mewkats and wolvers.)
Appearance/armor: Seraphic set. Pink Flower accessory on helm.
Weapons: Leviathan blade.
History/backround: Used to be a computer whiz, and a master of stealth. Not really any more. She was injured on the field and the spiral order couldn't care less. Thats what she thought. She was able to heal though some of her brain (Or whatever spiral knights use to think) was damaged. She can barely operate any kind of technology.. But, because of this she learned something pretty awesome. She could be so skilful with her moves, sometimes she mesmerized her foe with all the different moves. She ditched her skolver set that everyone knew she weared and put on the seraphic, so no one would recognize her. She's still in Haven figuring out how to take out the order.

Relations: She used to have some, but everyone presumes her dead. The only one to know of her existence is someone in the spiral order.

Pets/sidekicks: A baby wolver. Rarely seen though. She keeps it somewhere in her armor where no one can hurt or see it. Referes to him as "Blue".

Expandability: I dont want my character to die. Although being horribly injured would be ok.

Also, she loves helping people (Being medic) and she doest like being the leader of the group. But she does like being important and having a high position.

Also, I think It'd be cool if she had a love interest? Its ur story though.
