    Arcanasealed(Sgrub)(OOC)

    The arcana is the mean by which all is revealed...

    Alternia is a quiet place. It's routine is almost the same: Culling, mauling, burning. Most trolls do this.
    But one day, one of them decided to change things... break the ice. In one of his cullings, he found a game-grub... doing some searching, he finally found out that it was a multiplayer game, meaning he needed a team to play it.
    Not aware of any possible danger, he started rounding a team of random trolls over Trollian... why's that?
    A hunch. And most of all, the fun.
    With that in mind, he willingly made what would be his life's largest gamble.[/CENTER]

    -- doubleGunslinger [DG] began pestering you [YOU] at 7:21 --
    [07:21] DG: HΩwdy there, pardner.

    So yeah, new Sgrub team. This one will have the characters represented by the 21 major arcanas.(Ok, actually there's 22, but The World is too overpowered to be a troll, and it already has a meaning itself.) If you ever played any of the Persona series, you probably have at least a slight grasp of this all. If not, well, I'm going to explain it anyways.

    0.The Fool: Yunato Nagita - NeonProdigy
    The Fool. A free-spirit, a wanderer. But can also be viewed as the beginning. As the number 0, it is nothing in itself, but at the same time has infinite possibilities.
    1. The Magician: Antipo Lemnis - Fusilier
    Action and initiative. The master of manifestation, of his environment. But at the same time, can represent a power not yet matured, immaturity if I may.
    2. The Priestess: Bahari Navale - Stinatron
    Protector of secrets and mystery, contemplation and inner knowledge... while The Magician calls for power, The Priestess is more turned to wisdom.
    3. The Empress.: Elizan Shukra - NeonProdigy
    The great mother, and the life it brings. It is the source from where all things grow. Very likely to be the ____ of Space.
    4. The Emperor: Flynnt Lewest - Buse
    The father, the leader. Protector of his people, and also the decision-maker.
    5. The Hierophant: Ignius Greeph - cinchal
    Formality and knowledge. The teacher, the moral center of his group. Moral principles, traditional values, formality and knowledge. May also stand for religion.
    6. The Lovers: Karuna Gapero - EightBlade
    Choice, consciousness. The conflicting forces of attraction and opposition.
    7. The Chariot: CIRRIN RUNFAR - Blank
    Victory, even if just momentary. Also movement, change, intention and direction. Always moving, never stopping.
    8. Strength: Cucali Pasine - PepperedFox
    Passion, inner courage, but at the same time, self-control. Power with reason, one may say.
    9. The Hermit: Tursun Kairos - MrCreazil
    Mostly recluse, finding wisdom in solitude. The search for answers deep inside one's own heart.
    10. Fortune: Seiska Onnena - jemp
    The wheel of fate. Fortune, cycles, destiny, chances, and the opportunities that come with it... it is all in this card's range.
    11. Justice: Cephus Stenek - PepperedFox
    Justice, equality, and balance. The knowledge of right and wrong.
    12. The Hanged Man: Jules Ampiter - MeiMei
    It represents mostly personal sacrifice, although the individual's inability to take action may come into play.
    13. Death: Siskus Avarro - Palmu
    Spiritual death. The Death in itself is not an end, but a beginning. Out with the old, in with the new... this card does not represent the ending, but just a transformation.
    14. Temperance: Kateia Sophro - Zylvera
    Balancing of opposites, moderation.Opening his eyes to the world allows the individual to grow...
    15. The Devil: Kasmir Djavol - awesomeIncarnate
    The darker side of everyone's nature, the shadow self. It represents temptation.
    16. The Tower: The Machine(Mal) - uncannyUroboros
    Collapse. Everything falls apart, at a great and sudden change. Everything falling apart, mainly beliefs. Purposeful cleansing, even when it means destruction.
    17. The Star: Tiarna Chebit - LandofFantrolls
    Hope, healing, guidance and recovery. The opposite of The Tower: The Star represents hope and joy, bringing a blissful and serene calm.
    18. The Moon: Solena Lumiar - acrylicArsenal
    Not everything is at it seems. Illusions and facades are brought by The Moon, which may strike deception and/or fear onto others as they learn of The Moon's true self.
    19. The Sun: Lunaro Celesi - acrylicArsenal
    A bright future. The life source, illumination and enlightenment, shining upon the others.
    20. Judgement: Elpiza Iudico - uncannyUroboros
    Rite of passage where one must pay the price of his past actions, entering a new level of consciousness. It awaits the heroes on the end of their Journey, as they look back on the path they traveled.
    21. The World *NOT AVAILABLE
    Completion. The beginning and the end, the cycles of life. The individual's full awareness of it's place in the world.

    *Arcanas with a "*" after them are reserved. If not confirmed within one week, they become free of use.

    So yeah. Feel free to sign up.

    ESPERNET!

    Re: Arcanasealed(Sgrub)(OOC)

    Hermit reporting in.
    > Be the Martial Artist


    You are now TURSUN KAIROS.

    HELLO THERE STOP

    General
    You are the aforementioned TURSUN KAIROS. You are SIX SWEEPS OLD, and have been raised as a MARTIAL ARTIST. This is reinforced by your Lusus' tendency to ambush you several times per day. You live in a secluded hive DEEP IN THE MOUNTAINS, which is handy for keeping nuisances away. You are normally rather understated, with a dry sense of humor and a tendency to act unimpressed by just about everything. In rare cases, you will fly into fits of UNSTOPPABLE RAGE, but these rarely last long. You have no problems with CULLING on principle, but would prefer that it be more of a MERITOCRACY. You enjoy JAZZ, despite lacking any musical talent of your own, and are a fan of TROLL CHARLIE PARKER.

    Blood and Lusus
    You are a GREENBLOOD, and appreciate your position at the middle of the hierarchy. It allows you to gather information on trolls from all walks of life. You generally dislike the caste system, and that has gotten you into trouble in the past. Your lusus is a HISSBEAST, who attacks you on a regular basis to keep you on your toes.

    Hive and Body Count
    Your hive is built into the side of a mountain in a secluded location. The living quarters are rather sparse, and the majority of the hive consists of TRAINING YARDS and SECURE ARCHIVES. HIVE RAIDERS are rare, and generally have a short life expectancy. You have little to steal except your ARCHIVES, but you prefer that few trolls know those exist. Raiders cannot be trusted with such information. If they don't find anything, they can limp away alive.

    Friends
    You have very few, practically none until you were invited into this group. You are generally distrustful of most trolls, and even with your friends you keep a close eye on them. You haven't bothered looking for information on your ANCESTOR.

    Weapons
    You only use the FISTKIND strife specibus, although you have a very loose definition of the word "fist." Your martial art is focused on hard strikes using any available body part. Despite your skill, you have been banned for life from the ALTERNIAN MARITAL ARTS ASSOCIATION for giving a highblood SEVERE BRAIN DAMAGE after being asked to throw a match against her.

    FETCH MODUS
    You use the SLAPJACK MODUS, trusting your quick reflexes to hit the correct card as it flies past. Any item you CAPTCHALOGUE is shuffled into the deck.

    View on the Hemospectrum
    You dislike the idea of ranking trolls by blood rather than skill. Normally you keep quiet about this, but if somebody tries to use their privilege to exploit him, that can set off his temper.

    Trollian
    Your chumhandle is pimeTaradox and you PREFER OUTMODED COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES STOP

    Tursun: Abscond
    I THINK I HEARD A HISS O DAMMIT NOT AGAIN STOP

    TL;DR

    Re: Arcanasealed(Sgrub)(OOC)

    Okay, I have my app!


    >Be the Depressed Genius.


    You are now Jules Ampiter, and you are a genius, one could suppose. Your interest in SCIENCE defines you; especially the study of PHYSICS, like MOVEMENT, ENERGY, and MECHANICS. Your insterest led you to learn PROGRAMMING, well enough to make COMPUTER DEMONSTRATIONS for how certain things would work. Because of your CALCULATIONS, you were able to clear OBSTACLE COURSES very easily. In fact, at one time, you had EVERYTHING going for you.

    But then you had the idea to create a PERFECT MACHINE, one that would never run down, with limitless uses, almost like a REAL TROLL, only much more of a good servant.

    What a mistake that was. It was a SUCCESS, but it came at a price. RALLY RATHERS, the name of the perfect machine that you made, that you programmed, that you must live with till your dying day, however that day comes. But for now, you must live with your mistake, the accident that caused you to lose your BLOOD, nay, lose your ability to even PRODUCE BLOOD, and replace it with.... With....


    HIM. old picture is old OTL

    Sure, Rally is very helpful, he has maximized your potential in a fight, being the battle equivalent of A GIANT SWISS ARMY KNIFE WITH FISTS TOO, not to mention as useful in other ways as well. However, since the transplant, since the 'cybernetic enhancement'.... Life has grown to be something that DEPRESSES YOU. Possibly because you have successfully managed to REMOVE YOURSELF FROM THE GENEPOOL, not to mention Rally makes it a little awkward to FILL QUADRANTS, YOU SAD LONELY BASTARD. So, you mostly stay in your hive, which is a SWEET BACHELOR PAD on the top of a SKYSCRAPER. Your lusus likes flying at high altitudes.

    But anyways, this is quite enough about you, isn't it? Let's wrap up. Your trolltag is dejectedMechanic, and -your manner of, like, speaking pretty much, like, illustrates how bored of the world you've become, and, like, also how you're pretty much okay with, like, anything, and stuff-

    In and sgrub session, your title would be the Knight of Hope in the Land of Equations and Theories.

    tl;dr

    Re: Arcanasealed(Sgrub)(OOC)

    >[S] Be the journalist troll.



    You are now CEPHUS STENEK.

    Re@l n!ce t* meet y*u k!d, n*w fuck *ff.

    General:
    Yeah, you're CEPHUS STENEK. That name used to draw crowds from all over before a certain highblood got to your tongue and, therefore, your voice. You're currently 7 SWEEPS OLD and you look fondly back on the days when you could still entrance others with your eloquent speeches. Since your little accident you've decided to take a more CYNICAL approach to things and treat others quite gruffly. You still have a passion for JOURNALISM, and have dedicated the rest of your life to uncovering corruption and general injustice. Your hero is the great TROLL EDWARD R. MURROW and you aspire to be as influential as him.

    Blood and Lusus:
    You don't have mutant blood. The reason why you've switched to anonymity is to make it harder for a certain highblood to find you as well as to make a statement that the truth should not be restricted to a single blood caste. You are actually a TEAL BLUE, which is a decent enough color. Your lusus is a very reliable GIANT MOTH, though he is quite difficult to hide sometimes. He's quite comfortable to sleep against and is one of the few living creatures that you fully trust.

    Hive and Body Count:
    You used to have a nice TREEHIVE on the outskirts of the forest before you were attacked. Then you moved out, into the COMMUNAL HIVESTEMS where it's crowded and stinky and chock full of stories. You snoop around every night for news that you can print on the 'net. As for the body count, you try to keep it to a minimum. No use killing potential sources of information.

    Friends:
    You have a few. A troll's gotta have his connections, you see? But you rarely refer to them as your friends and treat them just as you would treat most other trolls. However, you do give them SAGE ADVICE once in a while to prevent them from being total morons and lend the occasional hand when you feel like it. It's not like they're important to you or anything, okay.

    Weapons:
    You use SHIELDKIND, which doesn't look very impressive upon first glance. But you have practiced with it for sweeps and know all the ways to bash in heads and all that fun stuff. In your opinion, the greatest defense is the greatest offense. Very much true in a literal sense. On the rare occasion you use PENKIND.

    Fetch Modus:
    You use the FILE MODUS. All related items are kept in the corresponding folder. Very organized and neat.

    View on the hemospectrum:
    You don't harbor any ill-will towards it. Nor do you favor it. Your job isn't to decide whether or not the hemospectrum needs to be eradicated. It's to report the facts and let others decide for themselves.

    That said, you still have leering suspicions towards highbloods since you lost your tongue.

    Trollian:
    Your trolltag is peripateticMeddler and y*u t@ke c@re t* pr*tect y*ur n*tes.

    Cephus: Abscond.
    Been try!ng t* f*r ten d@mn m!nutes.

    TL;DR
    IT'S A DOUBLE MOBIUS RAINBOW.
    fanchars and whatnot available on pesterchum. give me a poke if you'd like to talk to them.

    Well... sadly, I have to say that...

    ...Well, he's in. So yeah, three confirmed until now. YES!



    EDIT: Oh. Another one. Well, Cephus Stenek, in too. That makes it 4/20 confirmed.

    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH

    Re: Arcanasealed(Sgrub)(OOC)

    >[s]Be the elusive octopus troll



    You are now CIRRIN RUNFAR.

    Hey. CIRRIN RUNFAR's name is CIRRIN RUNFAR

    General:
    You might not have mentioned it before but your name is CIRRIN RUNFAR. You are 6 SWEEPS old but it won't be long until your next wriggling day. The two things you do best are RUNNING, HIDING, and DISTRACTIONS (hiding and distractions are just flipways of each other). Some may mistake you for a coward but you know better. In fact you love DANGER to a point that borders on SUICIDAL. Nothing compares to the feeling of TERROR you get while escaping from the jaws of death, except perhaps the elation of knowing you survived. You usually get your daily dose of danger by acting as MUSCLEBEAST BAIT for hunters or painters, or by FLARPing. Your FLARP character's class is GUYBRUSHANEER because you think pirates are adventurous and daring and ninjas are boring.

    Blood and Lusus:
    You are a Redblood, the very lowest rung on the hemospectrum. You are happy with it because it is who you are. It has granted you the psychic ability of INVISIFLAGE which makes people simply not notice you like a background detail you've seen a thousand times before. You might as well be invisible to trolls with low psychic resistance but anyone stronger will eventually realise you are there. It's just a matter of time. Your lusus is a LAND OCTOPUS. He is very good at giving hugs with all eight tentacles and tries to instil you with the values of LOVE and FRIENDSHIP and TANGLEBUDDIES which you think aren't very trollish ideals. He also makes ink for you.

    Hive and Body Count:
    You live on the edge of a FOREST by a STREAM. It is not that different from your typical lawnring abode, but it is very run down. This is because it is not your original hive, which you ran away from almost a sweep ago. You have not fully settled in yet and in many ways it feels like a HIDEOUT with lots of furniture made of crates and barrels. There are also a lot of empty horn polish jars lying around from a failed BUSINESS ENTERPRISE. Nontheless you managed to liven up your sleeproom with posters from PIRATE MOVIES. You have not yet killed another troll. You say YET because you believe it is something a troll should end up doing as part of growing up, and you worry whether you'll be ready when the time comes. You are much better at absconding from fights rather than finishing them.

    Friends:
    Since contacting you, you have begun to regard Flynnt Lewest as a good friend. You tend to consider people friends rather quickly, whether they feel the same way or not. You don't meddle in your friends fights though until their life is in serious danger. You feel a troll should stand on their own two feet and you wouldn't want to rob them of their fun. What you look for most in quadrants is a wild troll that will run red miles around Alternia with you, but also understand that ROMANTIC SERENDIPITY can work in strange ways.

    Weapons:
    You main weapon is CATTLEPRODKIND, which can hurt like hell but isn't lethal (unless the target is a wiggler, severely wounded, or has a pre-exisiting heart condition. The maker accepts no responsibly for miss use. Should also not be used for fishing). You also have a second BLADEKIND specibus which you use for FLARPing but the only weapon you have for it is an incredibly shitty CUTLASS.
    Equally important is your wide range of RUSES, DISTRACTIONS, and CLEVER DISGUISES which you use while fighting or fleeing. Your favourite is your OCTOPUS INK which you splash in the face of your enemies.

    Fetch Modus:
    You use the QUICKTIME MODUS because you don't have time to be fiddling with tricky inventory screens when your life is on the line. It's pretty simple; if there's a context for using an item, you activate the modus and the item pops out. It gets complicated when there's more than one item that could be used in a situation, in which case it's supposedly random (though you sometimes think it deliberately chooses the most inappropriate item). You also can't take items out if there is no context in which to use them without EJECTING the whole sylladex.

    View on the hemospectrum:
    You are okay with the hemospectrum and your place in it, because accepting it keeps you alive. In fact, you take a certain amount of pride in surviving as a lowblood with nothing being handed to you easily. You see highbloods more as potential enemies to be avoided rather than betters to grovel to. You are particularly suspicious of those highbloods claiming to ignore the hemospectrum. Just because they can forget the caste system doesn't mean you can. After all, tradition is a powerful thing.

    Trollian:
    Your trolltag is recreantOctopus and CIRRIN RUNFAR refers to CIRRIN RUNFAR in the third person

    CIRRIN RUNFAR: Abscond.

    It's time for CIRRIN RUNFAR to disappear. Later!

    TL;DR
