Bhima [AzamI's NWC Initial]

Persona Name: Bhima

Persona Type: Initial Persona

Persona's Arcana: Devil

Owner: Azami Aihara

Persona Appearance:

Spoiler:

Bhima wears a unique set of armor that serves as a vessel and body for him. The armor is completely comprised of three distinct colors -- red, black, and silver. Spikes standing upright rest upon his helmet and shoulders. He also possesses a large, two-handed sword that's relatively similar in design to the armor itself. Also worth mentioning is his height. Bhima towers over Azami and the average human in general. He's around ten feet tall and his sword alone is greater in height than his own master.

Overall, he can be quite an intimidating figure at first glance. Armed and ready for war, Bhima will seek to ruthlessly destroy anyone and anything that stands within his way.

Persona Background: In a forest one day were two lovers -- a priest and his wife. The two had met with each other in the area and eventually decided to make love to one another there. Pandu, the father of Bhima, had been wandering around the area at the same time and stumbled across the two. Mistaking them for deer, Pandu fired upon them with his bow and killed the two. Before the priest's wife fell fully into death's grasp, she placed a curse upon him and his life. If he were to ever embrace the woman he loved, the king's life would be stolen from his hands within an instant. With this the king Pandu was rendered unable to father even a single child. Thus unable to produce a heir to his throne, the king lost his claim to the throne and his brother inherited the kingdom instead.

Though he and his wife were unable to conceive a child both were stricken with the desire to do so. For a time they suppressed these feelings but, eventually, were unable to ignore the will of their hearts any longer. Attaining power through unknown means, his wife was able to invoke Devas -- Hindu deities -- to grant her a child. Thus was Bhima, born of the invocation of the wind god Vayu, brought into the world, and so was the curse placed upon his father circumvented.

Bhima was quite the glutton from the start. It mattered not how large or filling the meal he ate was; Bhima would eat it nevertheless. Whether it was a single fruit or an entire feast, it belonged to him and his appetite.

Strong and well-trained in the art of war, Bhima became a renowned warrior. He slayed countless asura, including the beast Bakasura, and eventually began a great conquest for his emperor and sibling Yudhishthira. Jarasandha, Panchalas, Dasarnas, Pulinda, etc. Countless cities, rulers, and kingdoms fell to the mighty warrior. The battles he waged brought much new territory to the kingdom and overall proved his worth not only as a warrior, but as a strategist. Alas, these efforts of his had not gone unnoticed. A man named Shakuni convinced Yudhishthira to a game of dice. Whoever lost would have to yield their land and gold to the other. A trick lied up the challenger's sleeve, however. He possessed a dice that obeyed his every will and whim -- an agent not of chance, but of his will. Ignorant of this fact, the emperor accepted this proposition. With each roll he lost more and more. Eventually, his entire kingdom was lost from his grasp. He and his siblings, including Bhima, were driven out from the land and exiled for thirteen years.

Bhima continued to accomplish great feats and slayed many more asura. Finally, after many years spent in fighting and battles, Bhima and the other Pandavas retired from their life as soldiers. They abandoned all material possessions they owned and embarked on one last pilgrimage to the Himalayas. Yet during their travels Bhima came to a sudden stop. Sibling upon sibling of his fell to the ground -- unable to move. Shocked at this sudden turn of events, he tried to call out to those still capable of making the journey as they walked away. However, his voice only reached the ears of his eldest brother.

"Why? Why cannot I continue on?"

The brother looked down upon him with pity and told him he wouldn't be able to finish the journey. Bhima's vice, gluttony, would chain him down for all eternity. Though he would die, he would be unable to find rest and would be damned to his cruel fate. Screaming and crying out for someone to help him, he found that no one answered him.

Left to bear the burden of his plight alone, Bhima has become a slave to his rage. Lashing out at the world and its inhumanity, he seeks to erase everything which lies within his path. Bound to the remaining flesh of the demons he's slain, war is the only thing he knows now.

Passive Boosts:

Quote :

Portrayed as a hermaphrodite devil over two naked and chained figures, the negative aspect of the Devil Arcana represents the urge to do selfish, impulsive, violent things and be slave to ones' own impulse and feelings. Occasionally, it is also portrayed as a symbol of temptation. The positive aspect, however, represents a healthy bond or commitment.

Pros: The Persona of the Devil Arcana are commonly Persona excelling in support skills. Users have a latent 15% boost in buff/debuff skills.

Fusion Attack: This fusion attack acts as a combination attack between your initial Persona, and one of the many other Personas under your control. When using this attack, you will combine two skills together to attack in one post. For Example, if you were to use Zio and Agi, the two would be combined together to inflict both Zio and Agi damage. Since it's two skills at once, you'd add the damage from the Zio and the Agi together to get the total damage dealt. Not only this, but you will need to put the cost together aswell, as you're practically using two skills in one post, more or less.

This can only be used once per three separate battles.

Human Skill Name: Black Butterfly's Flight
Persona Name: Bhima
Tier: Tier 1
Cost: 15 SP
Type of Damage: N/A
Description: Upon activating her human skill, Azami transmogrifies into a swarm of black butterflies. While in this state she travels at a supernaturally high speed in any direction of her choosing. As a result, she can move three times the amount of spaces than would normally be possible within the span of a single turn. While any enemy she comes across will automatically attack first, it will aid Azami in reaching her destination quickly. Furthermore, it'll allow her to move between one and five meters during battle and outside of dungeons.

Interesting Human Skill for sure. At Tier 1, I'd give it a % chance to succed. Think Call of the Shadow, in the sense that it would have a smaller chance to fool shadows stronger than you are. You could give it some range, if it's a decoy skill that you're looking for. Not a long range mind you, given it's tier. Other than that, the Tainted Soul Appearance, although interesting, needs a bit more specification as to what you fool others into thinking. Just note that you'll probably need a Strength on your Character app for this, similarily to how Anti-Shadow Suppression Weapons need Strengths on their apps to perform Super-human feats in Orgia Mode. Other than that, your persona looks fine. Alert me or any other mods once these changes have been made.

Agreed. This is indeed a similar mechanic to Call of Shadow. I'd imagine it'd work akin to an ailment with a chance to suceed. However at T1 it would be rather low. Plus you worded it as AoE. I imagine it would be like 15% chance for each Shadow being targeted as it is.

And yeah. Tainted Soul changes like appearance and personality are fine, but this is something more complex and actually visibly affects the opposing party and gives an ultimatum with the Analysis guise. Your best bet is to indeed have a strength dedicated to that, as normally such boons aren't freebie to these abilities.

Edited.

As for the Tainted Soul appearance and what-not, I'd be fine with giving my character an additional strength for it. Could one of you please move my app from the approved section so I can edit it? Thanks.

As things have been fixed on both fronts, you're now approved. Welcome back to Azores, Azami.

Due to Azami's new position as Nyarlathotep's Wild Card, I've updated her app. Requesting reevaluation.

How long does this skill last? You can make it a higher percentage (20%).

Upped the percentage.

As for how long it lasts, I didn't intend for it to have a specific time limit. If it failed to attract any Shadows it'd simply disappear immediately and if it successfully lured them in it'd last until all Shadows drawn toward it reached the space that it's located in. If need be, however, I can make it so that it expires prematurely after a certain number of posts.

If the Shadows avoid contact with you, then make it last three posts.

Done.

Approved.

Edited once more.

Approved edit.
