Character Design:

-Name: Just fill out a name that you like. I'll just allow any names, but Claymores mostly have names with a latin feel in them.

-Gender: Male Claymores are more vulnerable to Awakening. Depends how you want to RP, basically.

-Age: Be realistic, the Organization takes infants and it was basically... just created, so Claymores cannot be over... 30 years old. They must also be older than 10 years old.

-Appearance: Feel free to use pictures of existing Claymores - just use wiki and google / yahoo.

-Region: North, South, West or East. Your choice influences your location in relation to the other Claymores - you can always switch locations, if you desire.

-Fighting Style: The distinctive difference between Offensive and Defensive is that Defensive-type Claymores can regenerate limbs that have been completely destroyed, while Offensive-type need their old limbs to reattach them in order to recover.

-Rank: It may look stupid not to go for the highest rank, since it begins with the best stats, but the RPG is based on an experience / levelling system, and lower ranks grow in strenght faster than higher ranks. Also, higher rank means more difficult assignments, and more and stronger people after your head if you kill a human or Awaken.

-Level: All Claymores begin at Level 1. After getting enough experience you will Level-up, getting 20 points to assign to your stats and increasing your Health by 40.

-Current Exp / Exp Needed: The amount of experience you have towards advancing to the next Level, compared to the experience needed to advance. At character creation, you have 0/100 experience.

-Stats: The stats have separate base starting values for each rank:
>Rank 47-40: 500 Health, 50 Power/Endurance/Speed. 120% exp.
>Rank 39-30: 600 Health, 60 Power/Endurance/Speed. 100% exp.
>Rank 29-20: 700 Health, 70 Power/Endurance/Speed. 90% exp.
>Rank 19-10: 800 Health, 80 Power/Endurance/Speed. 80% exp.

You start out with 20 stat points to assign to your stats in any manner you wish. You can also decrease any of your stats to a minimum of (its starting value - 10) in order to gain extra stat points. If you are a Defensive type Claymore, increase your endurance by 20. If you are an Offensive type, increase your speed and strenght by 10 each.

Note: The experience multiplier refers to the Rank you start in, not your current rank.

-Special Ability: Certain Claymores have abilities that distinguish them from each other - when I say 'special abilities', do not imagine planet-buster beams and flamethrowers. They are related to physical combat, as well as their Yoma energy. At later points during the RPG, you will be able to increase your traits' effectiveness, or acquire new ones. You can make up your own special abilities, as long as they are realistic. Not having a trait means you get an extra 10 points to award to your stats during character creation. Every 5 Levels, you will be able to either increase the effectiveness of (one of) your existing Ability/-ies, or create a new one (following the above rules). See References.

-Partially Awakened Traits: You are allowed to pick/create one of these when/if you Partially Awaken. Same rules apply as to the regular ones when creating them, except they are stronger. See References.

-RPG Status: When just joining the RPG, your Claymore is not being hunted, and hasn't Awakened. Over time, when those statuses change, edit the change into the sheet.

-Biography/Personality: Self-explanatory. What happened to your character prior to becoming a Claymore, and how your character acts.

-Items

-Claymore: Your basic weapon - a massive, broad blade, too heavy for any regular human to use. Every Claymore starts with one of these.

-Full Plate Armor: A steel-clad full-body armor - it can protect you somewhat against conventional weapons wielded by humans, but when fighting Yoma or other Claymores, much less Awakened Beings, it doesn't serve much of a purpose.

-Yoki Suppressant Pill: Suppresses your Yoki and changes your eye color. Each character starts with three. See Yoma Energy for more information.

-Black Card: Every Claymore has a Black Card concealed within the hilt of his/her blade. If he/she feels he/she is close to Awakening, he/she can send that Card to another Claymore, either directly or through the Organization's operatives. The Black Card serves as a message that the Claymore who sent it wishes to die by the hand of the one who received it - it is the receiver's choice whether to heed the request or not.

-Praying Lady Statue: This statue is used to seal your claymore - after all, suppressing your Yoma energy is pointless if you wander around carrying the trademark weapon of the Organization's agents. It is essentially a small, handheld marble sculpture of a lady in a praying stance - but when it breaks, it transforms into your sword. You can request it repaired or replaced after it has been used to the Organization's operatives.

Yoki Affinity Counter: Starts at 0. For each post you use Yoma energy, this increases by 1 for every 10% of your Yoma energy you use (if you are under 50% health, this doubles). While this has no outwardly effects on your Claymore, after you reach 50, you Partially Awaken (see below). Claymores with high Yoki Affinity Counters, especially those that have Partially Awakened, are often perceived as troublemakers, and sent to dangerous missions in hopes that they will be killed before they can fully Awaken.

Regeneration Rate: This starts at 20. Each Level you gain increases your Regeneration Rate by 5. Fast Regeneration Trait adds 20 to your Regeneration Rate. For every 10% of your Yoma energy you are using, your Regeneration Rate increases by 10.

Alright, I know the above aren't exactly up-to-date, except Amero's, Kei's and Arros' characters. But it will be corrected soon.

Now each of you, post up your up-to-date character sheets in this topic. All of you who are in Level 2 can increase their Stats by 20 in total, and get a 40-point Health boost. It'd be good if you could update your sheets each time you advance a Level, so we can track things easier. Once you do that, I'll also update the above list.

[Arros]

Name: Heiruke (Pronounced Hee-Rue-ke)

Gender: Male

Age: 20

Appearance: Regular claymore amour but with very short spire like objects on the shoulders. The amour is black and whenever he is not fighting he sports a thin but large black traveling cloak.

Region: North

Fighting style: Offensive

Rank: 28

Level: 2

Experience (Current Exp, Exp Need): 98/300

Stats:
Health: 615
Power: 130
Endurance: 70
Speed: 110

Special ability: Quick Sword

RPG status: none

Biography: Having lived in a quiet village, the Yomas have always been in a part of their village. Always attack, always killing. Often sacrifices would be made to “please” the Yomas. These rituals became part of daily life. Heiruke was very young, and did not understand why these unthinkable acts were being done. At the age of 15, is own grandfather was selected to be sacrificed.

Try as he might to stop it, he alone stood as he saw the wicked Yoma tearing and chewing up his beloved grandfather in a shower of gore making him retch and become unconscious.

He would later be found within the organization, and after learning a few things, become a Claymore to destroy the Yoma’s once and for all.

Personality:Hateful to all Yomas, and wishing for nothing but their utter destruction. The word “Yoma” alone strikes a feeling of utter fury in him, and his anger over them might just be his own “Awakening” downfall. However, as much as he detests the loathsome creatures, he feels that everything shouldn’t suffer, which is why he will usually try to kill an Yoma right on the spot.

He is usually calm (When not fighting Yomas) and respects those of being stronger or equal to him, even giving a respectful salute. He respects weaker people, but will not salute them.

Items: Claymore, Plate Amour, 3 Yoki Suppressant pills, Black Card and Praying Lady Statue.

Biography: Grey came from a fairly average family, his early childhood was happy, where he grew up as a somewhat clumsy young lad. However, after his father returned from a long trip things int heir happy house became different. His father became irate and violent and killings began to happen in his once happy town. A mercenary, who's name Grey never learned came to the town one night. On that night...Something happened to Grey's happy family. He woke up in the morning after thinking he had a very violent nightmare; however, the limbs and blood from the night before were still in his house. The mercenary extended his hand and Grey followed him into the organization. After becoming infused, he still remained a somewhat clumsy fighter, though his unpredictabilities played to his advantage.

Personality: The yoma blood inside him turn Grey into a slightly standoff-ish person, much different from the happy human boy he once was. Though he is shy, he does not hesitate when presented with a job to do.

Yoki Affinity Counter: 0
Regeneration Rate: 25

Claymore Relations:

Clement (although his name is unknown to Grey):
A tall man with long bushy hair and a stare that arouses an uncommon mix of fear and comfort. This and the glove hand that he extended to help him up are all that Grey remembers of this particular Claymore. He met him on a night before he was a claymore, before he knew of the demons in this world. He was the one that asked Grey his name before he gently pushed him to the organization official.

Una:
A claymore that Grey met by accident when traveling near the border of the western region. While he was not outwardly friendly to her do to the nature of their work, she managed to break through his shyness and make Grey laugh. A feat that someone did not often do. He has met with her only several times, crossing paths only on his way to do work, but he is very fond of her.

Adele:
Grey met her only once, she is the claymore he fought to advance to the 29th rank. However, she yielded and surrendered before their blades even clashed. There was far too much kindness in her heart to be a claymore, Grey is surprised she is still alive.

[Ranny]

Name: Ophelia
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Appearance:
Region: West
Fighting Style: Defensive
Rank: 35
Level: 1
Current Experience: 0
Experience Needed: 100
Stats:
-Health: 600
-Power: 60
-Endurance: 90
-Speed: 70
Special Ability: Her ability is strange and well developed but barely used for battling purposes. She possesses an ability in sensing the proper tremors in someone’s Yoma energy that indicate whether they are lying or telling the truth. Most people suppose she developed it from asking so many questions, and that is mainly how the ability works. She asks a question to either her fellow Claymore’s or a prospective Yoma and can tell from their energy whether they are lying or not. It’s not a very useful ability, but it serves Ophelia’s needs fine enough.
Partially Awakened Traits:
RPG Status:
-Hunted: No
-Awakened: No
Biography: Ophelia doesn’t really have any tragic Yoma story where her family gets gutted and raped while she watches—rather her story is quite simple. Her mother, a very poor (and often rumored prostituting) woman, begged the Organization of the Claymores to take her small child, Ophelia, who at that time was four years old, because she couldn’t take care of her rather inquisitive child and work at the same time. Feeling justified in helping battle the Yoma, Ophelia’s mother left her with an organization that made her into a half-demon. So, essentially, Ophelia’s earliest memories are of her mother leaving her, the rest are of training with the organization.
Personality: Ophelia rarely smiles, but strangely is never disgruntled looking, or sad. She has a constant inquisitive aura about her, and as such has the personality of a seemingly emotionless child. She takes very few things seriously, and as such has not earned a very good rank. Constantly asking questions, Ophelia takes to everyone, regardless of whether they act outwardly annoyed about her presence or not.

--------------------------------------

Name: Adara
Gender: Female
Age: 25
Appearance:
Region: South
Fighting Style: Offensive
Rank: 16
Level: 2
Current Experience: 60
Experience Needed: 300

Stats:
Adara receives 40 Health and 20 Stat Points.
-Health: 840
-Power: 135
-Endurance: 85
-Speed: 90
Special Ability: Strong Sword
Partially Awakened Traits:
RPG Status:
-Hunted: No
-Awakened: No
Biography: Her past is somewhat gruesome and is locked somewhere deep in her human mind. There was a yoma that happened to stumble upon a small village that Adara lived in. At the time Adara was 10 years old and was happily living on the outskirts of the village near the woods, but that day the yoma that came upon their small cottage massacred her family. Her family of 7 was cornered in one room, one of her younger siblings managed to escape the room, the other four were killed trying to fend off the yoma with her father and mother. It came to a point where Adara, her father, and her eldest brother were holding the yoma against the wall. Her father and brother were gasping and spluttering blood as the yoma’s hands went straight through their stomachs. Adara’s father yelled for her to kill the thing while they had it occupied and, to the best of her ability, Adara knifed the crap out of the yoma, finally managing to saw it’s head off after it had passed out on the floor in a pool of it’s own blood, it’s arms still stuck in the rib-cages of her father and brother. There was no Claymore that came to their rescue, so Adara went to the organization of her own free will.
Personality: Basically, Adara is one of the rudest people you’ll meet. She always speaks her mind, and disregards when other people talk. It’s not that she’s arrogant; it’s just that she doesn’t comprehend proper etiquette or getting along well with other people. She is occasionally nice, but mostly her snide comments make her a difficult team mate. Adara is generally very vicious to the Yoma she kills. She doesn’t just cut their head, she cuts the to bits, making sure they’re fully dead—most assume it’s paranoia and it probably is.

[Kei]

Name: Isaakus
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Appearance:
Region: East
Fighting Style: Offensive
Rank: #10
Level: 3
Experience (Current Exp./Exp. Needed): 35/600
Stats:
-Health: 880
-Power: 105
-Endurance: 105
-Speed: 110
Special Ability: Quick Sword (Allows you to wield your sword faster, increasing the speed of your attacks) - In-fighting: Increases your speed when attacking by 20.
RPG Status:
-Hunted: No
-Awakened: No
Biography: Like most other Claymores, Izaakus' parents were killed by a Yoma. However, the Yoma had taken control of his mother's body first, and used that body to eat the father. Being so closely attached to his mother, he hesitated to kill his Yoma-controlled mother, almost being killed in the process. Izaakus closed his eyes for a few brief seconds, but when he opened them, he saw a silver-haired man with an enormous sword standing behind the sliced-in-half Yoma. The man muttered something about being late, even adding in a slight shrug, as if it didn't matter to him. The "savior" explained why he was sent and the Organization, offering Izaakus a chance to "become stronger to protect others, like what you could have done here." Izaakus took the offer, but for an opposite reason: to get revenge on the man that could have saved his family, but didn't care.
Personality: Because of his past, once Izaakus takes on a challenge, he doesn't stop--even if it will cost him his life. He's distant and cold, almost down to the bone, but those that can get past that know he can be approachable.

[Island of 1,000 Condiments]

Character Sheet:

Name: Hannah [Unknown Surname]
Gender: Female.
Age: 19
Appearance:Click Here. (Kudos to Kei.)
Region: North
Fighting Style: Defensive
Rank: 23
Level: 1
Current Experience: 0
Experience Needed: 100
Stats:
-Health: 700
-Power: 45
-Endurance: 90
-Speed: 95
Special Ability: Windcutter
Partially Awakened Traits: None. (Haven’t Awakened.)
RPG Status:
-Hunted: No.
-Awakened: No.
Biography: Known as the “Blossoming Gypsy of the North,” Hannah has only achieved admission into the ranks of Claymore within the last few months. In fact, many viewed Hannah as an experiment which would soon be disposed of when faced on the battlefield. Originally, the young Claymore was infused with the blood of another Claymore – With possibly unknown results. This resulted in the gray-eyed witch’s hair only lightened from the original color. (Double-Pun Title: Blossoming as in rapid growth or the growth of a flower. Flowers are represented as red. Therefore…?) More so, eye color tends to alternate from the original green to silver. It all varies upon the flaring of her emotions. (Therefore, when Hannah is completely calm, her eyes would remain its natural green. When she becomes enraged, depressed, etc, they become gray.) As for the term “Gypsy,” it is noted that Hannah was once the child of a family of nomads. When trade fell, the parents were forced to sell the children to the unknown for food. It’s unknown what became of them, but the two, as well as siblings, are rarely spoken of.
Personality: By description (Or rather definition), Hannah is timid, almost indecisive. Such results in a Defensive Claymore. However, Speed follows closely behind Endurance. With the ability to regenerate, along with rapid-fast movements, one cannot touch Hannah – Therefore eliminating the insecurity that exists within her soul. By hiding within a blur of speed, the young Claymore allows herself freedom from the blood lust of the battlefield. In fact, fighting isn’t her desire. Instead, she merely follows orders. Hannah, unlike many Claymore(s), deeply respects the Organization, almost to the point of fear of disappointment. Possibly a psychological ploy, or maybe the Gypsy Claymore is trapped within the haunting of yesterday – This is unknown.

Name: Zayne [Either spelling is acceptable]
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Appearance: The typical Claymore apperance; his hair is a pale blonde, cut around his neck, and the eyes are the trademark silver, though a slight smile is on his expression more often than most. Beneath his right eye are three cuts, two diagonal lines moving in opposite directions, and one horizontal, the former of which are rather small, the latter extending to his cheek.

Biography: Zane's tale began in the Holy City, when, as a child, his family was killed by a Yoma, posing as one of their neighbours; a demn who was killed almost instantly by a covert Claymore. In awe of the female, and believing some sort of divine purpose due to his upbringing, Zane was inducted into the organisation.
Personality: A normally polite male claymore, Zane comes across as a quiet individual, and is the sort of person who feels awkward in groups of people. He appears to be strict with regards the rules of the organisation, as well as enthusiastic or excited. With regards batte, he can be brave, but extremly straight-forward, and doesn' seem to have uch of a grasp on simple things, such as tactics; despite this bravbado, however, he also has a deep-seated fear of death, which can be a major hindrance in 'life-or'death' situations...

[Lord_Sloth]

==========Personal Information==========
Name: Valko Kraven
Gender: Male
Age: 23

Appearance
Blond Hair and Silver Eyes


Region: North
Fighting Style: Defensive
Rank: #19
Biography: Kraven, unlike most Claymore who's parents were slain by Yoma, was actually the 1 who killed his parents. It was in self defence but the town did not believe the young boy (who was 14 at the time) and attempted to execute him. However, a hungry Yoma in the crowd saw differently and simply massacred the small town. The villagers put up a better fight than the Yoma had anticipated and it suffered greatly but did win. However, the victim, Kraven was left standing and took advantage of the situation. In a frightful rage, he killed the beast viciously. Even tormenting the creature for reasons he did not know.
He was later approached by a claymore who invited him into the organization.
Since he joined, he swiftly learned the trade and became an adept Yoma killer. Since he's become a Claymore, most call him Kraven. Many rumors circulate among the branches as being a cold hearted, beastly creature who enjoys slaying civilians and covering it up by blaming Yoma.

Personality: Kraven is frightened by the malicious attitude he displayed towards the Yoma and is normally secluded and distant from any1. He is always polite and shows smiles. But his smiles are always fake. He never gives a whole-hearted smile and only rarely allows some1 to call him by Valko.
