Current Events
Updated: 20/07/2020

**ALERT!** After a rather eventful evening at Maksim's Party, three teenagers seems to have gone missing. The doors of Vault Olympia have been breached due to a to this day unknown assailant, who sabotaged the doors locking systems, allowing demons to make entry. Thanks to the excellent defensive capabilities of the Vault's Security drones, the Attack was put to an end, and the invading monsters fled to the outside. Right now, the Doors of Vault Olympia are currently open, allowing any survivors of the fall to seek shelter within the Vault's safe halls. What Vault Security officials think of this development remains unclear as the Chief of Police and Security of Olympia refused to leave a comment. This is Rianara, of Olympia news, signing out.

The site is entering a new era as our team of mods works tirelessly on updating old and obsolete information threads and links. Over the Summer, we aim to make many changes to the forum, including writing a comprehensive beginners' guide to help new players accommodate to the combat and other rp systems in place here.

Be sure to constantly check the update thread for any changes to the boards. You can find it ->Here<-

Kenneth Shaw
It's the people that saved me when I needed it most... Now it's my turn to repay the favor.


The Biography


Birth Name:Kenneth Shaw
Aliases:Ken. "Kenny"
Gender:Male
Age:19
Birth Day:04/09
Arcana:Strength
Place of Residence:Vista Square
Academy Semester:?
Class:Zero

Sorority:N/A

Part/Full Time Job:various Odd Jobs

Appearance:Kenneth comes off as a excitably young man who 's eyes just give off a glimmer of ambition in them. His skin is caucasian with a slight tan, his height is 5'11 and his weight is about 130 LBS. Ken's hair is also black with slight spikes and short.The boy wears a Straw Hat that is reminiscent of his old home town back in Kansas, wearing in tandem a sleeveless red vest with a pair of blue short trousers. He does not always wear the same outfit and will alternate depending on the situation, though this is often his "defacto" outfit which he wears to move around Endymion or in casual quarters.

Base Outfit:

However when he dons on a Cadet Uniform, Kenneths outfit changes instead to a large black trenchcoat like cloak donned over his body, with a black pair of smooth dress pants underneath and a neatly tucked in red dress shirt to finish it off.

Cadet Uniform Ken:

Personality:Kenneth is a rather amicable person who has faith in those around him. He can be rather outgoing, or found engaged in rather sociable activities as well. Being a very extroverted and outgoing individual, Ken desires to befriend most of those who he meets and tries to see the "good" in people, however this does not mean Kenneth is not aware of the "bad" people are capable of. The forgotten is not hard to talk too, and finds a way to somehow just talks about anything, his activities or the things he do may be perceived as bizarre by others as well for how "abnormal" he can get sometimes.

When it comes to doing things, Kenny is usually a hard headed individual, he never gives up not out of determination, but rather sheer stubbornness to accomplish whatever he is doing. Sometimes even declining help purely to save face or some semblance of his own pride. When the chips are down and Ken knows he's outmatched though, he has no problem accepting that sometimes the boy just might need a hand when he's in a pinch.

Deep down however, Ken possesses quite a few fears. The incident that made him become a forgotten to begin with left him with partial PTSD that sometimes can trigger in incredibly violent or explosive situations. By explosives I mean literally explosive situations, he dreads violence and wishes to put an end to most of the "bad" in Endymion, as some form of repayment to the people of the city themselves. He feels this inclination because when he suffered a life threatening injury that threatened to deform him for life was caused due to a bombing, a gofundme was created and many rallied simply to pay for his treatment.

When it comes to friends, Kenneth never backs down from helping them. Although he may trust easily, and may actually find himself going out of his way ALOT more than he actually should for people, when you manage to befriend Kenneth he just won't abandon you, and will be your "rock " when you may actually need it most to begin with. It is an honest flaw of Kenneth's that he may have a hard time seeing through deception, and may be inclined to believe people even when he should not. Sometimes he can be gullible even when there is an obvious lie in front of him as well.

However when you speak to Ken and just hear his jovial self. It's like someone else is speaking to you on the inside, despite how stupid he may come off as, or how strange the boy may seem. It's like a special kind of charisma just radiates from him onto yourself. Underneath his goofy exterior, when the going gets tough. Ken knows to get serious, but manages to retain a light hearted sense of humor and dialogue despite whatever may be going on around him.


 
The Potential
   


Strengths: (Anything your character is skilled in, such as Martial Arts/ Drawing/ etc? You are allowed a maximum of five strengths and a minimum of three.)


Strength Name:A Boy and His Demon
Description:Kenneth is a unique Individual, in that his Demon was directly merged with his body to help with his treatment as a experiment. His Demon  is incorporated into his chest,legs arms and pretty much most of his body. However for all intents and purposes, only his hands and forearms serve as the actual "soulbound" weapon and are treated like a "soulbound". The rest of his body can be damaged just like a regular human being can.

Strength Name:It's a Special Kind of Talking...You just can't teach to Anybody...
Description:When Kenneth talks to you. There's something about him that just stands out to you, you feel inclined to believe him. Maybe trust him a little more than you actually should. You find him a little goofy, and maybe a little young and dumb...But frankly?You just can't help but give him a chance.[Charisma starts at rank 2]

Strength Name:The Shadow Just Knows How To Hit...!
Description:Kenneths Shadow just knows how to hit the enemy properly with a hard physical attack and seems better affinity wise to physical oriented attacks. As a result, Kenneth has a 20% chance to miss with Multi Hit Physical skills instead of 30% like others would suffer.

Strength Name:Reflexes
Description:In preperation to become a Cadet, and from Kenneth's own personal life experiences, the young lads got his own set of personal trained reflexes. He finds it easier to react than others.

Strength Name:Follow Me!
Description:Kenneth at heart is a leader, even if he lacks the actual experience to show for it, by nature he tends to attempt to take charge of situations or rally everyone together. This functions as a leadership strength for dungeons.

Weakness Name:Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Description:Kenneth is far more vulnerable to mentally freaking out compared to others whenever he encounters largely explosive situtaions or large scale harm of any kind. As a result, he is also 15% MORE Vulnerable to mental ailments.

Weakness Name:Not meant to shoot.
Description:Kenneths shadow is poor when it comes to actually using magical based skills, adding an extra 10% chance to miss whenever he uses his gun

Weakness Name:Not Intellectually Inclined

The Background
   


The Boy Meant To Die [Done] Tumblr_ml0aplnQYR1rs94vwo1_r1_500

History:Kenneth's story starts all the way in the beginning, back in Kansas Nevada. He grew up as a pretty simple and light hearted young guy. Went to school just like the other kids did, and everything else. You could say that Kenneth had a pretty normal life indeed, however that was never meant to last.

It all started right before the Eternal Divide. Little Kenny just went to his middle school in the bright of day, In fact his parents christ really thought he was gonna be okay. However life had other plans for little kenny, as he was just in the middle of class. A bomb went off right in the middle of his school. The kid was caught in the sudden burst and flames that engulfed his school. Wasn't anything too large but it was definitely a noticeable kaboom. Little Kenny that day got pretty lucky, because his classmates sure didn't. The kid suffered some serious third to fourth degree burns, it was highly likely that in his future, Kenneth would be deformed and likely unable to physically function.

A Go-FundMe was put up by some sympathetic people to fund not only Kenneths treatment but the treatment of many of the other children who managed to survive the bombing of their middle school. Alas, even with people funding his treatment, the expenses were quite complicated. Though one day, Kenneth's family was approached with an "experimental" option by a visiting scientist that would allow Kenneth to come back to his regular life good as new.

Without any hesitation they all said yes, though...The family didn't get what they were in for now. Young Kenneth was taken to a separate "research" facility to have this new, "experimental" treatment be placed upon him. Due to his fourth degree burns the guy was lacking a large amount of his Muscle and skin tissue. When presented with this..."Experimental" treatment however, the boy was nearly taken aghast and afraid. Just what on earth had he signed up for?

"The Introducing:

As Ken was wheeled in to receive his treatment however. He would be paired up with what was apparently a strange human looking man, that looked oddly rather homeless. The two two were linked together in what appeared to be some form of an attempted "experiment" to make the two combine together and possibly "fix" Ken as well. A few glowing lights, and some miracles later. The two formed what appeared to be a demonic "pact".

Following some rehabilitation procedures and tests, Ken was now back to his regular self, albeit now he had literally a demon inside of him. His hands and arms never were the same, when the Eternal Divide occured however. Ken was forced to abandon his family and friends to flee alongside the researchers who helped him get better in the first place, a thought that still haunts him to this day. Arriving in Endymion, after spending some time in the city. Ken decided to put what he possessed to good use, applying to join the cadets to help keep the peace.
