[font=times new roman] I thought I would try to get a Madoka Magica fan character roleplay going! This is a role play set in the universe of Puella Magi Madoka Magica so lets go over some rules!

-Basic rp roles (no gmoding, no mary sues, no powerplaying etc) -Follow Subeta rules -While this is a magical girl rp, if you really want to make a male character then feel free to!

• Please try to be at least semi-lit uou

-To ensure a fun and fair rp, All Puella Magi are around the same power level -If your oc has a special ability (such as homura's time abilities) try to remember that any overexertion will cause your oc to be exhausted and affects their soul gem -Try to keep your character in the age range of 8-18

Name: Age: Appearance : (You can provide a picture or a paragraph. Either is fine!) Weapon: (Try to avoid using the same weapon as someone else) Wish: (wishes will often give the Puella special powers relating to that wish) Final Move: (Thinks Mami's Tiro "Finale") Personality: Additional: (Anything you want goes here!)

In the large town of Yokohama there are two simple rules that the Puella Magi abide by: -Do not hunt a witch in a territory that is not your own. -Do NOT go into a territory that isn't yours. With these two rules, a tense make-shift peace kept the puella magi in order. However, these rules are not know to everyone. A new generation of Puella Magi hunt witches mindlessly and violate he unspoken rules. Soon, duels to the death became common among Puella Magi. Some decided to band together in groups and claim more territory in numbers. Some veterans go out of their way to keep the juniors in their place. 1 year later and the turf wars continue without an end in sight. Will you fight the witches and fellow puella magi alone, or do you still believe in the power of friendship?

CHARACTERS

[spoiler=Kiyoko Arai] Name: Kiyoko Arai Age: 17 Appearance: Puella Magi Form Everyday Weapon: Tarot Cards that can be used almost akin tot throwing knives and can cause certain effects Wish: "I wish I didn't fear the future." Final Move: "Let's see what's in the cards." She shuffles through her cards and deals massive damage depending on the arcana Personality: Kiyoko is a quiet girl that often has a gray rain cloud hovering over her head. She is intimidating and often sounds cold and emotionless. Despite this she is actually a timid girl who is usually unable to fix peoples perceptions about her. When hunting witches she has a one track mind and will not falter and miss a step until the job is completed. She mostly hunts by herself because of the obvious reason that many people are uncomfortable around her as as her being nervous of being distracted while fighting witches. She has been fighting witches since she was 11 years old and has stayed out of the turf battles. She tends to keep to herself and is content with the territory she looks over. Additional: -Because of her wish, while battling she is usually 2 steps ahead of the witch she is fighting and has a 92% chance of knowing the witches next move -She lives alone and sustains her lifestyle by doing tarot card readings and fortune telling. -Her favorite food is salmon onigiri -She has a secret hidden obsession with all things overly cute

(Hmm, this sounds like a lot of fun. I recently watched Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and thought it might be fun for a roleplay. Requesting permission to be some kind of "Puello Magus" or something, a boy mage? Also, how much might our characters know about the actual, more sinister aspect to the Soul Gems and all that?)

Ah yes that's cool you can made a mahou shounen ahaa I suppose you can have your character already know due to experience or if we would like I could make a npc puella magi that will end up corrupted if we wanted?

(Alright, I'll make a character who somehow knows about how Puella Magi become witches, but maybe not as connected to it as say, Homura was.)

Name: Locke Kierke (but often uses "No one" when he means "I". As in, "No one saw that masked figure sneaking around last night. No one plans to stake out the base tonight, to see if no one sees him again." Fortunately, he doesn't speak like this unless in his Puello Magus costume.) Age: 16 Appearance : On a day to day basis, Locke doesn't draw much attention. He has slightly tanned but normally pale skin, is of an average height, 5' 10" or so, and his build is neither muscular, pudgy, nor slim. He has dark brown hair which goes uncut down to his shoulders, and grayish eyes. When he goes into his "powered" form, he dons a pure white suit, which looks like a single piece of clothing even though it has several layers, due to lack of a clear outline. His head is covered by what looks like a motorcycle helmet, also pure white, with a black visor. As a result, he stands out without having any distinguishing features. Weapon: A kusarigama, the chain-and-sickle weapon. When in use, the chain seems to become unattached, nonexistent/extraplanar links holding it together. Wish: Nothing. He drew up a ten-page report before making his deal, explicitly explaining that he wished for his wish to be expended for no gain (while making sure his wish wasn't going to be misinterpreted as a nihilistic ideal wishing for oblivion). His intent was to gain the capability of becoming a Puella Magi (Puello Magus, he calls it), and to evoke an equal amount of despair as hope he gained from his wish: None. Final Move: Antimateria Extermination Personality: Locke can be clever and cunning, in some ways mirroring Kyubey who granted his wish for nothing, but just below a controlled surface lies a rush of surging emotion that made him applicable to make a wish in the first place. Locke was introduced to this world of witch-hunting through his sister, who had become a Puella Magi to save his life. At first, Locke operated on an "out of sight, out of mind" policy regarding his sister's frequent disappearances. But soon, the secrets and obvious lies became too much for him to deal with. But he intervened too late. A powerful witch's familiar caught hold of his mind, and his sister set forth to kill it. But it was too strong, and it killed her instead, becoming a new witch to be killed by a Puella Magi who kept tabs on the area. She had only intervened after it had killed, because otherwise no Grief Seed would come of it. Locke's sadness and fury at the injustice of his sister's wasted life called out to Kyubey, who decided that since emotions were key, an overemotional young boy would make just as good a Puella Magi-er, Puello Magus, as any teen girl. But Locke wasn't so blinded as to let his anger deter his common sense. Having witnessed his sister's death and having parts of the Puella Magi process explained by the girl who killed the witch and Kyubey itself, Locke realized that any wish which granted hope would lead to despair. He found himself at a crossroads. How could he work to keep people safe from witches, if the despair of the wish threatened to turn him into one? And he realized, only a wish which granted no new hope could bring no new despair. So he wished for nothing at all. Kyubey was thrilled (as much as it could be), because a wish for nothing took no energy to grant. Now Locke hunts witches mercilessly, removing them from existence, to protect those who could be lost to them. But he finds equal hatred in his heart for Puella Magi who allow humans to die to fuel their own selfish power. Additional: Locke's wish for nothing granted him a power of nonexistence. His Soul Gem is unusual in that it doesn't exist, and only becomes clouded when he doesn't exist either. He is able to simply vanish out of thin air, removing himself and anything he is holding at the time and moving into oblivion. He is aware of himself and whatever he brings, but it simply is outside the realm of the universe. He's hard pressed to explain it, but it's like being in a room with no door, which holds only himself, his Soul Gem, and anything he has previously brought there. When he fights a witch, his technique is to vanish in order to dodge her attacks, then either stab the witch with his scythe or bind her with the chain, then bring the bound part out of existence. Most of the time this disrupts the witch enough to weaken if not kill it outright, and he can destroy the captured part in his chamber. His final strike, Antimateria Extermination, similarly removes the witch from existence in its entirety, except that he doesn't know where it goes. All he knows is that the Grief Seed turns up in his chamber.

(( I would love to join this, but it will probably take me a little while to get a skeleton drawn up and draw references uvu; I'll edit this post with more sections as I get them done, okay? Sorry, I just got home from a trip...is this still okay to join?

Oh man, um, not to be rude but your character may have some...holes, eheh, void-power-puns not intended. Maybe he should be a bit less powerful? I mean, his final move is an insta-kill, he can just vanish into nothing, or I guess he is nothing because he doesn't have a soul gem/soul?? It's just a bit...too much. Also, even someone as powerful as madoka had to wish for something, even if it was just to become a magical girl... ))

Name: Anko Satomi Age:15 Appearance : Normally and In her Puella outfit. Her soul gem is the broach located on her left breast. Weapon: A large zweihander with a broad, almost rectangular blade reminiscent of an executioner's sword. Despite it's size, she seems to be able to wield it with ease. Also, she can bind enemies with noose-tied ropes, much in the way Mami could with her ribbons. She lacks basically any form of defense. Wish: Anko's best friend, and admittedly love interest, Shun, had been a victim of bullying since the two were young, and in the past school year it had gotten to the point that Shun ended up hanging herself in her bedroom. Crushed and Furious, Anko confined herself to her own room for days after the funeral, eventually slipping out of her apartment one night to go to the park they had played at as children. This is when she met the incubator, who promised her the justice she so craved for her friend. Her wish was for everyone that had ever bullied or hurt Shun to pay for their actions, to understand just how they made her feel. The next day, teachers and students arrived at the school to see altogether 24 bodies hanged in various classroom around the school. The police could determine nothing more than a mass suicide. Final Move: Massimo Ghigliottina Personality: Anko is a sweet, but very stubborn child, stuck deeply in her own views of what is right and what is wrong. She loves the chance being a Magical gives her to save lives, especially considering the huge twisting guilt in her stomach for all the deaths she was responsible for...but she tries not to think about that... She's sure that Shun would be very proud of the work she does, and even if other Puella Magi think she's stupid for wasting some of her time and magic fighting familiars, she is sure that it's the right thing to do. Additional: Anko lives alone with her father on the 9th floor of a high-rise apartment building. Mr. Satomi works a desk job for an electrical company, and it under the impression that his daughter joined the student council of her school to take the place of one of the mysterious suicide victims, and she is very active in that, which is uses as a good amount of her excuses for being out late into the afternoon.

Name: Kanon Etsuko Age: 14 Appearance : (You can provide a picture or a paragraph. Either is fine!) Weapon: (Try to avoid using the same weapon as someone else) Wish: (wishes will often give the Puella special powers relating to that wish) Final Move: (Thinks Mami's Tiro "Finale") Personality: Additional: (Anything you want goes here!)

Name: Joy Shuzumi Age: 18 Appearance : Weapon: Magic Book Wish: (Her grandmother to be healed from breast cancer) Final Move: Holy Cross Supernova Personality: She grew up in a religious family, so her Bible became magical. Joy was very close to her grandmother, and she was crushed when her grandmother developed breast cancer. Her grandmother fought it for six years until she was too weak to fight anymore - she was going to die. Joy couldn't bare to lose her grandmother. She made a bargain for her grandmother to be healed and soon enough she was! That was when Joy became a Magical Girl. She can never tell her family though; if they found out, they would think she abandoned her faith and she would disappoint her grandmother, so she had to keep it a secret. She's shy, but when it comes to others in need, she is there to help them no matter what.

ah sorry i haven't been terriblely active, glad i wa pinged ahaaa for future notice please ping me if you want me to see anything haahaa,,, but yeah thats totally ok! you can do things at your pace uwu when did we want to start the roleplay guys? :o

( pinging you so you can see this)

( I know what you mean, and hopefully I can play it appropriately, but I don't think the void power is that overpowered. For example, the main sort of attack/tactic he'd use would be to wrap the chain around a foe's arm and drag it into oblivion, thus erasing that bit of arm and having the disconnected arm fall off to the side. Although it's flashy and different in mechanics, the end result is basically the same as the classic anime swordsman who cuts the villain's arm off in a clean stroke. As far as the final move goes, yes, it's an insta-kill if he gets it off (and requires some setup with the chain and significant drain of his Soul Gem), but what final move isn't? The huge blast from Mami's Tiro Finale obliterated anything once she used it (hence it being the final move, since she was so confident that it would be the finishing blow), while other anime like say, Gurenn Lagann, have the final move which ends the foe (usually though the use of five concurrent X-shaped explosion) without any fuss. Why save it for the end? Style~

The vanishing thing is just like a flicker effect, which is pretty strong I agree, but as most reactive defensive maneuvers, requires him to activate it judiciously. If I gave him a Wolverine-esque healing factor, he could just take all the hits, instead of having to even try to dodge them. And he does have a Soul Gem, maybe I poorly described it, in that it doesn't exist in our world, but when he stops existing and "exists" in a null space, it's there too. So it still drains energy through use, it's just better protected than it would be if he flaunted it around. He's a bit confused as to how he can walk around and not fall unconscious, but Kyubey and he agreed that technically, his body is not more than X distance from the Soul Gem. Or, more accurately, the Soul Gem does is not further than X distance from his body, because it isn't anywhere to be from.

Does it say you have to wish for anything? Kyubey has the power to grant wishes, but the wish->magical girl transition isn't really spelled out. In any case, he did make a wish; effectively he wished for his wish to be expended without benefit. He just made sure to get the semantics down in an unambiguous sense.)

ah yee man its cool! make as many as you feel you can rp uwu

aaaa omg I hope you guys are accepting people for this still, it looks so fun! if you are still accepting, could i make a second character?)

Name: Yoshikuni Saito Age: 16 Appearance: (I'd like to draw it, if that's okay! That may be a few days, though. If it takes too long, I'll just replace this with a word description.) Weapon: Brass knuckles that can transform into gauntlets. They're very heavy and large in their gauntlet forms, and the surface of the fist is barbed with very tiny spikes that snag on things easily (like skin, for example). Wish: "I wish I wasn't so afraid all the time! I wish I could protect myself without being scared." Final Move: (I hope this is okay) Ultimate Beast: Her final move is more like a final mode; she enters Ultimate Beast mode to finish a fight quickly or to turn the tables on a troublesome fight. In this mode, she loses sight of nearly everything except winning. Comrades mean little to her in this mode, and she will beat down anything in her path. She's unafraid to fight and unafraid to lose, be it comrades or herself. She rarely activates this mode because of that. Her eyes turn red in this mode, and she basically acts like a beast (growling, snarling). Personality: Yoshikuni is quiet, though not quite shy, and she hates being around people. She tries to remove herself from life and emotions in an attempt to not be hurt, but her heart longs for human interaction. Her passive-submissive nature made her a prime target of bullying in school. She was always afraid of hurting others and making them sad (the last thing her Mother told her before she disappeared was, "Make sure you never become the type of person that likes hurting people, okay?"), so she never fought back. Eating dirt and swallowing tears for so long made her bitter, and she came to both resent and envy others. Resentment died down to sadness, and now she just wishes to be apart of the world she was always afraid of. She's actually very emotional and prone to tears, despite how disconnected she seems to be. She hangs onto every word that people say, even more so when directed at her. Her personality doesn't exactly stand out, and she hates it. She's trying to work on being more of an individual. Additional: Her wish granted her strength as well as fearlessness, and even outside her Puella Magi mode she's unusually strong for someone of her age and build. She doesn't know how to control it, so she doesn't like to touch people at all. Last time she tried to smack someone's hand away, she broke their wrist.

To be honest, she has no interest in the war between Puella Magi, but feels obligated to take part.

yee totally! i haven't been able to hear back from some rpers so hopefully this can still happen uwu;;

oAo I hope we still can! I've been dying for a good Madoka rp. Is there a time you wanted to start this by?

hmm i think having at least 3-4 active rpers sounds good!

I'm still here! I'm sorry, things have just been kind of hectic lately u~u if it's okay, maybe I should wait until later after the rp has started to add in my second character, as a newcomer to magical-girling, ehehe. EDIT: pff I always type your username as sploicer

Oooh, shiny. This may be just the time to help me not be so bored at work*! Lemmie draw up a character (you've not started, right? Yeah, looks not)

Might take a little. I can't quite see her in my head, because I wouldn't normally play the kind of character I want to do...but I'll think about her my last ten minutes here and on the bus ride home.

*XD No, I'm not slacking. I work at a call center and they don't care what I do between taking or making calls. On days that aren't Monday, sometimes it's really slow and so boooriiiing =_=

[edit] Ta-daaa! Lemmie know if you think it needs tweaking but I think ChiChi is balanced enough for what I want her to be.

Name: Chihiro (ChiChi) Tanaka Age: 9 Appearance: She is very short, even for a nine-year-old. Short-waisted and small-framed, she's about chin-length of her schoolmates. She has hair that appears black, although in direct light is a deep purple. It's fluffy and shortish, usually kept in two puffy pigtails at the back of her head, behind her ears. Her large, round eyes are a deep green, set a little closer together than most, right above her tiny nose. Everyday wear shifts from her school uniform to little wavy pink skirts and white blouses or her baggy pink sweater if it's cold. Her puella outfit is fairly simplistic and based heavily on her wish: the clothing involves a black-and-gray dress with black-and-gray striped stockings as well as a cape made of black raven feathers, the clasp her dark purple soul gem. She also sprouts a black fox tail and black cat ears. (I apologize for the low quality of the sketch and also for how lazy of a chibi it is but I wanted to get something out quick.) Weapon: Toys of the stuffed variety, especially Nyansan, Kitsusan, and Kaasan, her toy cat, fox, and crow. Think Shiki from The World Ends With You except ChiChi does not use telekinesis to control her animals. Wish: I wish Nyansan, Kitsusan, and Kaasan were all alive so they could play with me, talk to me, and be my friends. Final Move: "Friendship Tricheer" Growing gigantic in size, ChiChi's three stuffed companions surround the target and destroy it in one gigantic, rainbow-filled growl. Personality: ChiChi is very curious and a little ditzy. She is also incredibly timid among strangers and children. Still young, she hasn't quite developed that filter between thinking and speaking and is known to blurt out things like questions that have already answered themselves in asking, or that have obvious answers, questions that aren't quite polite to ask, and other statements that make her look foolish or silly - although, again, she's nine so all in all the effect tends to be more endearing to the understanding. Additional: Understanding, of course, tends not to include non-adults and therefore ChiChi is shy and timid around other children because she's used to being made fun of - for being short, for being "stupid", and for carrying around Nyansan, Kitsusan, and Kaasan. As the butt of so many jokes, ChiChi doesn't usually have many friends. ChiChi is under the guardianship of her older (half) sister. As her sister is barely an adult herself and is a little irresponsible, she has had trouble holding a job in the past and ChiChi was moved around a lot as her sister found a place where she could hold a job. This adds to ChiChi's lack of friends - one, in having not stayed around in one place long enough to really make any, two, in always being the new kid. ChiChi doesn't get to eat candy or other sweets very often and will do almost anything to obtain them if she can. ChiChi sucks at fighting and if her stuffed animals are defeated, so, basically, is she. ChiChi does not fight herself. She has sad little noodle arms that are totally ineffectual and can't use any weapons. Because of this, and her immense timidity, she avoids older Magi the same way she avoids powerful witches because she would like to not die. As per ChiChi's animal names - Nyansan is the cat: nyan is the onomatopoeia for a cat noise in Japan (equivalent to 'meow') and 'san' is basically Mr/Mrs so Nyansan is Mr. Meow; kaa is 'caw' so again, Kaasan is Mr. Caw; kitsu is what the fox says in Japan, so Kitsusan is Mr. Ring ding a ding ding a dingdingdingding. Or whatever.
