Recruitment Post - VALR
How much do you like transforming weapons, cool powers, and combat-based schools?
If the answer is "a whole bunch" then you probably want to play in VALR, a tabletop campaign based on RWBY.
SYSTEM
VALR will be played in, wait for it... Valor. The Valor roleplaying system is perfect for capturing the anime-esque, high-paced combat of RWBY. It's a little numbers, a lot of character building, and encourages good roleplaying. A pdf will be provided if you don't already have a copy of the book.
OVERVIEW
VALR will run with four players (it's kind of the thing in canon), playing four future hunters and huntresses as they hone their skills and face off against increasing threats from both the monsters that roam the world and from other people.
Start date will be once Chrono Valor finished (some time in 2018), days based on the availability of those involved and my other commitments. (Mondays could replace Chrono Valor directly, but I'm open to other days if the other games I'm in are finished by then.)
RECRUITMENT QUESTIONNAIRE
Because I like these
1. What name/alias do you go by?
2. What's your plurk username?
3. What days/hours are you available? Which do you prefer?
4. Character concept?
5. Anything you want to see in the game?
6. Gimme a picture of a cool weapon.

2. What's your plurk username?
3. What days/hours are you available? Which do you prefer? Currently in flux due to work being stupid, but sunday/monday/tuesday probably!
4. Character concept? A berserker girl. Same one from our last attempt at VALR! A girl from a well-to-do rich family, has berserker fits, ran away and is in hiding under a fake name, trying to control her uncontrollable semblance of the riastrad.
5. Anything you want to see in the game? lesbians

2. What's your plurk username?
3. What days/hours are you available? Which do you prefer? I know from VC my Monday-Thursday available hours can be rough for you depending on your shift, but if NV is over that timeslot would work too? Or Saturday around the same time.
4. Character concept? I'll probably revisit/rework the one I pitched when Sven was planning this, basically a shield-wielding tanky cyborg who seems like a natural-born leader/mom friend but has fucked up survivor's guilt issues about the incident that got her all the neato robot parts.
5. Anything you want to see in the game? People ridiculously loosely based on fairy tales. Also gays.
6. Gimme a picture of a cool weapon.

2. What's your plurk username?
3. What days/hours are you available? Which do you prefer? Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays after 6:30 pm central. Monday is technically the same but you've seen my ability to actually manage that. Saturdays are negotiable.
4. Character concept? The youngest of three sisters and a wealthy family and vaguely spiteful about it. Morbid with a tendency toward gothy poetry, but with the excuse that she can genuinely foresee death and destruction and that has an effect on a girl. She has a great talent in magic, but it tends toward the creepy and violent - premonitions of death, shadowy weapons, storms, maybe even necromancy if that's a thing in this setting that isn't 100% a no-no (and maybe even if it is). Unironically feeds ravens, and likes animals more than people in general. Smart but more concerned with getting attention than studying. Mostly motivated by trying to find a use for her powers that isn't awful. Still working here but you get the idea.
Also no, I'm not trying to rip off Teen Titans here, I'm just going back to the myths that started the archetype that is now the spellcasting mall goth.
Name can be "Anand" if we're looking for the A in VALR.
5. Anything you want to see in the game? Ridiculously stupid setpiece fights you'd expect out of Kingdom Hearts or something (I've never played Kingdom Hearts but that seems like a better tone for RWBY than what I've seen of RWBY). Swarms of monsters, giant moving mountains of bosses, that whole deal.
6. Gimme a picture of a cool weapon.
I googled "a weapon to surpass metal gear" and this was on the first page.

3. What days/hours are you available? Which do you prefer? The days that are easiest for me to navigate are Wednesdays and Fridays. Mondays and Tuesdays are right out and Thursday would depend on VXM being over (for both of us, so at least there's that). Saturday might work too.
4. Character concept? A confident, bright rising star who's getting by mostly on her own wit. Claims to be blessed, and charged with a mission she doesn't completely understand, by someone (details tbd), but there's no proof to back it up - she doesn't have any apparent connections to existing big names.
5. Anything you want to see in the game? Nothing that the above submissions haven't covered.

you got your bloodborne in my trails of cold steel

3. What days/hours are you available? Which do you prefer? Open mostly on weekends; I work 9-6 PST Monday-Thursday, 9-2 PST on Friday.
4. Character concept? Agi/Spr dash fighter, a take on the hot-blooded knight-errant type, specifically stemming from Slavic/Russian mythology. Probably fights with a pneumatically launched chain lance/spear.
5. Anything you want to see in the game? gays

3. What days/hours are you available? Which do you prefer? I am open after 5ish PM PST, Tuesday-Friday (Thursday only after Valorous X-Men concludes), wide open Saturday, and Sunday's fairly busy so dispreferable but evening could work.
4. Character concept? A hyperactive robot girl with an oversized 'combat support platform' inspired by Nicholas Wolfwood's Punisher (the giant cross gun full of smaller guns) from Trigun. I'd be lying if I said the start point wasn't "Nuts and Dolts combined into one person". Exact build TBD, but her being a healer/ranged support with a bit of Challenge Spec in the form of 'HOW MANY DIFFERENT TOOLS ARE IN THAT THING' seems suitable. I picture her having a cosplay hobby, as well.
5. Anything you want to see in the game? I like the idea of staying at the school longer than RWBY did, and having more fun with that conceit.
