Right! first things first, if your name isn't Angel-Girl or she hasn't told you to come here for whatever reason, feel free to not interrupt our scheming by asking what on Cradle we are going on about... In fact, any questions should be directed here http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/113863 . Ok, with that out of the way, I choose you Angel-Girl! (apps pls :D)
Spiralbound FanFic(ish) Collaboration Thread (Is this obvious enough?)
Correction: Everything SO FAR is on the Skylark. I don't intend to have anything past around chapter 4 up there in space.
Well, I was gonna have pre-Valkyrie AG, but now that I think of it, I just had the best idea ever, I'm gonna need the Valkyrie form. NOTE: Does, "Valk AG" have wings? and how does this work? is a like a switch that she flicks, or did she just one day unlock that memory that she's a kick-butt Angel and then kept going on with life?
Heh heh, whoops, I meant to correct myself on that.
Ho boy, this might be a long explanation.
Well, Valkyries are usually born with the beginnings of wings- if they had fully grown ones in the womb, it would kill the mother. So wings are like the rest of the Valkyrie body; it grows at a gradual rate. Around human puberty age they start taking real shape and color.
For AG...well, she was born with a defect that wouldn't even let the wing joint (connected to the back) grow. She looked like a normal Knight. She wouldn't get the 'wing bumps' until around early twenties. When she found the necklace (hopefully you know what I'm talking about) it cured her defect and resulted in rapid wing growth. They're not like aesthetic wings, if she changed her equip they will still be visible. I used to have it so the necklace would conceal that, but I thought it would be more interesting if it didn't.
And about DISCOVERING all of this- no, she doesn't go on with life in my headcanon, and she has no memory of her real race. She's going to receive visions in the form of dreams (this has already started in my writing) about a Valkyrie named Clarity (who is actually her blood mother) She looks for her for answers, and eventually finds her. The reasons for her transformation are given after finding her, thus discovering her true origin.
Ok... So when we say 'wings', what are we saying here? are you going for the wings to just be an indicator that she's something more than just a Knight, or can she full on fly with them?
Ok, then, that's fine *tosses piece of paper for a 3-pointer into nearest trash bin*. In which case, can I have a list of abilities that AG has that a normal knight wouldn't?
Sure. Here ya go.
Flight
Photokinesis (Manipulation of light)- She isn't very trained in this area. The best she can currently do is shoot light orbs and glow.
Healing(?) (Question mark because I'm not sure about that yet)
Just the basic list, nothing super detailed (because I haven't gotten that far yet with this)
Great, got what I need from that area, now do you mind doing one of the apps you had us do? after that I should have almost all I need
P.S. feel free to add anything you think is important.
Okay, I'll get to you soon, shouldn't take me too long. (Any delay is from dinner cleanup, most likely...)
Right then, I will use this interlude to stop procrastinating XD
Angel-Girl
Gender: Female (of course)
Age: (At this point in the timeline) 16
Appearance: Green Personal Color, Normal Eyes. Somewhat large, snow white angel wings take place on her back (which can also be used to slap pretty hard XD). They are taken by everyone for customly modified Divine Valkyrie wings until she tells them they're real.
Race: 3/4ths Valkyrie, 1/4th Knight
Morality: Good for sure!
Allegiance: Spiral Order
Clothes/Armor: The Valkyrie set. Her helm has a Prismatic Bolted Vee. She has a necklace with a large, transparent cream crystal pendant tucked behind her brestplate.
Weapons: Divine Avenger, Argent Peacemaker and the Grey Owlite Shield. She can use photokinesis, but it's not really varied in what she can do with it.
Personality: Angel-Girl a naive air to her. She's usually very happy and uplifting, but provoke her to a certain point and she'll reveal a very bad temper. She isn't easily angered, fortunately, and tends to be more tolerant of sensitive Knights' triggers (She tries not to get real angry at them). One of her faults, however, is that she tends to take people for granted. She doesn't purposely ignore others' feelings, but they may feel like she's not really trying to show that she cares.
In battle, she becomes a ferocious fighter and isn't afraid to get close up to the enemy- but she doesn't act like the green recruit stereotype! She can shed nervousness during battle aftermath but it's usually forgotten within a short timespan.
History: Uh...I guess since she's a bit of an AU character, you can make it up. And I don't mind you asking me to help you with that!
There's Angel-Girl's! I'll get to the others soon, I'll edit this when Raye's is finished. (I want a shortish time of SK.)
Thanks! Angel will be the only one in this chapter, so I'll start on it immediately! That's all from me today-- Morellomancer signing out!
K Angel, chapter four is up! I mean, you're SORTA in this one *SPOILERS*
YAYS!!!!
EDIT (after reading it):
Is her "sorta appearance" this?
“Now, if you look here—“ Violet tapped him on the shoulder and pointed to another screen. “Erm, Bech, if we’re those energy thingamawhatsits over here, whats that thing?” Bechamel’s eyes bulged “That, dear Violet, is exactly why we left Isora.”
Or did I completely miss something?
Well, I can confirm that you are NOT the Sleeper (which is not spoilers because that is confirmed OOO canon) , and you are in fact the "blinding light" that causes the delay, though as to why in the story will explain later, though in truth I kinda used it to explain why they were late and only realized after that I could use it as foreshadowing for your appearance. XD
Blinding light? I think I DID miss something. XD I'll look again...
EDIT: Oh, heh heh, I wasn't reading carefully enough. Well, anyway, that was a cool chapter!
(Ozlo with a rubber ducky? O_O that puts some not-so-pleasant images in my head...)
I REAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYY wanted it to be a Rubber Snipe, but I made it a rubber ducky because Lore.
Okay, I HAVE to draw that. It will be stupidly PRICELESS to visually see, see with my very own two eyeballs, Captain Ozlo with a rubber ducky. *feels dumb but starts on it anyway*
Hi.
I need another brain to help me with Raye's history. Here's my dilemma:
(Keeping it inconspicuous, I want it to be a...surprise?)
Someone is jealous of Raye and wants something she has. He's not greedy enough to take it forcefully, but I want something to push him over the verge of envy. Whether it be a common "ally", something Raye does, or whatever- I have ZERO ideas. It would mean a lot if you could give me something!
~Angel-Girl, the Valkyrie
I would go the simple way. If you are prepared to go down that path, I'm pretty sure there is an Apocrean hood that mentions the inciting of negative emotions in others. So, maybe make this person pick up an object/meet a persuasive person that makes him more cuckoo than he already is. It could also be something indirect. People do stupid things in anguish, so maybe kill off someone close to him? I could go on, but it's your story ;) NOTE: Feel free to mess around with any of my stuff if you feel like, just no killing anyone of mine off ok? And do note if for whatever reason you use something of mine, there's a law that states I can veto it, though I highly doubt that a highly talented writer such as yourself would to something to annoy me.
Thanks for the ideas! That one about the Apocrean hood sounds interesting...maybe I'll use it in some way.
Wait, are you saying I have your permission to re/write stories about Swift and such? (Asking for clarification because..well, you kind of blew me away in surprise with that last bit. XD)
By which I mean that you can incorporate any of my characters in your writing, as you have done for me.
Ah. Wow, I feel honored for getting permission for that! I'll find some good places to put you in AG's short stories, and I'll also see if there's anywhere you can fit into my main story (Just try not to expect any huge major roles, those are pretty much taken by my OCs).
No stress. I really don't care if you put Swift anywhere, you just need to know that you have the creative option of using my characters :)
Okay. Thanks for the permission though! :D
Other stuff:
HAPPY 5th ANNIVERSARY!!!! *throws confetti all over your head and sticks one of those blowy things in your mouth*
And what better birthday present to get than a hope for the game to live on! *Screams in elation about the news of transfer* (Hyper today. XD)
I would join in the celebration but I was up at 2am last night watching League of Legends so I'm a bit tired -_- though yes I am hyper about this Grey Havens thing.
But when do you think you'll come out with a new chapter? I'm assuming you're editing your current chapters right now, which is totally fine, but a vague update estimate would be nice.
Super sorry that I haven't done anything in ages, I've had life stuff to deal with. I'll try to do another chapter today, though NO PROMISES I have a school related event today -_-
It's alright. And while I remember, I finished Raye's form a couple days ago. Do you care if I post it now or do you want me to wait?
Also, I decided that Ether "dies" in Swift Transferal. .-. Still want him in your story?
Found da thread!
And, also, to anyone reading my story (and Ego's?) DO NOT STALK IF YOU DON'T LIKE SPOILERS. THIS THREAD WILL MOST LIKELY BE SWIMMING WITH THEM.
Before I go make an app though, I have a question.
By the looks of your story, everything is taking place on the Skylark. Angel-Girl didn't have any idea that she was a Valkyrie before she was a Vanguard, so this comes up:
Do you want me to have AG come in as the pre-Valkyrie manifest Knight, or make an AU version with all of her angelic glory?
