That sounds great! Once you've decided on your specific legend then feel free to post the Bio to the thread so I can review it and accept or change as necessary. There are a few others I'm also expecting to join in the second arc.I'd be interested, will work on the character sheets and hopefully be accepted for the second arc, was thinking Legendkin as the type @kyuukestu
I would need more within the Myth section. I'm vaguely aware of her being in the Ulster Cycle, but the Myth section needs to have an actual summary of her Myths and Stories so that we know where the gist of her powers are coming from.Pre Oscillation

I hope this is good @kyuukestu
First off, it's a good bio through and through, I quite like the character...though you may have stolen Eevium's angel plan lel.I was advised to post a bio by @kyuukestu even though they are not being accepted at this time.
Name: Marcus Dipluma
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Physical Features: Marcus is an imposing figure, standing at 6'3" and weighing about 200 pounds. His light brown skin is drawn taught over his muscled physique, and his perpetually-sleepy-looking brown eyes compliment the shade nicely. Marcus keeps his somewhat-nappy hair almost shaved on the sides and short on the top, close to a box cut in style.
Appearance: Marcus' outfits can change day to day, but two things remain consistent: his gold chain with a St. Mary pendant, and his two silver rings on his right ring and pinky fingers.
Personality: Marcus is incredibly calm, with a reassuring quality akin to descriptions of Jay Gatsby from the classic novel bearing his name. It takes a lot to get him going about anything, and some mistake his lack of reaction for a lack of passion. Marcus is nothing if not passionate however, but he prefers to keep his passion to himself. He is incredibly self-motivated, something necessary for an endurance sport like rowing. As one of the best rowers on the school team, Marcus has some leadership experience but prefers to let others take charge.I'll happily make any changes.Name: Marcus Dipluma
Kinship: Legendkin
Myth/Legend: Archangel Raphael
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Physical Features: Marcus gained two inches of height and 25 pounds of muscle after the Oscillation, not to mention a pair of brilliant white wings with a 12 foot wingspan. His eyes have gone from brown and sleepy to gold and alert, and people around him swear that they can see a circular golden glow around his head.
Appearance: With his wings now in the way, Marcus has to cut slits into the backs of any clothes that he wears. He still wears the same jewelry.
Personality: Marcus stepped up after the Oscillation, putting his reassuring vibes to use by becoming the leader that he never felt the need to be pre-Oscillation.
Mythos: In Christianity, the Archangel Rapheal is one of the three most powerful Angels in Heaven. While Gabriel may be thought of as the Messenger and Michael as the Warrior, Raphael is the Healer. His sphere of influence encompasses medicine, healing, and those who practice either. He is revered as a protector of sailors, and one of the Devil's chief enemies.
- (Active) Marcus' touch can instantly put others at ease.
- (Passive) Marcus is, essentially, immune to any ability that would alter his state of mind (Demoralization, memory clouding, etc.)
- (Passive) Marcus' senses are incredibly enhanced, to the point that he can hear the blood flowing and feel the vibrations from the heartbeat of a person standing across the room.
- Marcus' touch can heal any wound, at the cost of his own energy. The greater the wound, the longer it takes to heal and the more energy is drained from Marcus. Marcus' own wounds heal without draining his energy.
- Marcus' touch burns any undead in the same way that holy water may.
- (Active) Marcus can call on the sunlight during the day and form it into beams of energy. These beams of energy are like a highly concentrated magnifying glass, and are incredibly hot to the touch.
- (Passive) Marcus' strength is enhanced to super-human levels when in direct sunlight.
- Marcus is able to fly using his wings. The wings are incredibly strong, strong enough to lift his body off the ground, and durable enough to be used as offensive weapons.

Alrighty, I looked it over. It's good to go, though you should be careful about the usage of that third rune.@kyuukestu Edited, added some more of her major appearance, and the three runes she learns upon Oscillation.
Fixed it. It's been a while since I've made an OC with a stat sheet so I wasn't completely sure how to balance it out.First off, it's a good bio through and through, I quite like the character...though you may have stolen Eevium's angel plan lel.
I do still have a few changes though.
If it happens whenever he touches someone then this should be a passive skill rather than an active skill.
Straight immunity wouldn't be allowed, though high resistance is completely fine.
This also appears to be a passive ability since it would happen without specifically activating a skill.
Three extremely high stats is a bit much and the two Lows you have wouldn't really balance them. You would need to lower Agility or Endurance to High or Very High.
Limitless healing of himself is a bit much as well. All healing would need to cost energy or he'd functionally be nigh-immortal.
I would need to know where you're getting the abilities from, so you're better off going with a myth who has at least a few stories.Question. If I wanted to do something like, say, a Greek goddess, specifically Iris (the personification of the rainbow), but there aren't many stories about said goddess, could I sort of.. make up her abilities, I guess?
I was actually gonna do something similar, that's why I had her take a stop in the bathroom xDI was gonna have Adrian look in the mirror at his vampiric self and see his 'monster form' on the other side, but then I remembered it might not work because Vampires don't have reflections.
I think everyoneSo who’s actually involved in the first arc?
I was told I'd be brought in for the second arc.So who’s actually involved in the first arc?
Touch of Insanity (Active): In a certain myth, Athena gave birth to Ericthonius, a half-man and half-serpent. She put the infant in a chest and gave it to others to watch over, forbidding them to open it. If they did, she drove them insane as punishment.
The Aegis and Zeus' thunderbolt would be considered legendary items rather than skills. So it wouldn't manifest as electrical manipulation. Sorry, but I'll have to veto this skill. However, bear in mind that there are mythological items around, though they won't be easy to find.Electricity Manipulation (Active): In the source that I found, Zeus was said to have trusted Athena to wield both his aegis (shield) and his thunderbolt.

Everyone except for Patriot and Cmeriwether is in the first arc. I plan to have the others introduce their Ocs in the second arc, but for now, I want to keep the number of Ocs a good deal below 10.I think everyone
Yea, that'd just about do it. Accepted!okey! I'll make those edits. I'm not very good at interpretation so I'm trying my best lol.
edit: Done, does that look better? (i just copy and pasted everything you said so it's probably fine haha)
Today, it's a very recent thing. So it's more something that only a couple of students have heard about and started spreading. Teachers aren't in-the-know.How long ago did Zola first start spreading rumours?
I would low agility a bit, but other than that looking good!Name: Alexander (Alex) Leffen
Gender: M
Age: 16
Physical Features:
Alex is 5'11 and comes in at around 70 kg. He has distinctly piercing light blue eyes and a pale complexion, and has a fairly standard build, though slightly on the thinner side. His hair is light brown and fairly long, reaching down to just under his eyes.
Appearance: Alex tends to dress casually, choosing comfort and freedom of movement over appearance. He normally wears a plain t-shirt and tracksuit trousers, as well as a hoodie if he deems it necessary. A similar lack of care is put into his hair, giving it a tousled and fairly unkempt appearance.
Personality: Alex tends to keep a fairly relaxed attitude to most things. He strongly dislikes authority and being told what to do, though he generally doesn't have a problem as long as he's given a reason to do something. As a result he treats school as more of an optional choice, only going to his classes half the time and spending most of his free time roaming town. He enjoys moving around and keeps fairly active, though this is normally in the form of climbing onto rooftops, trees and the like, occasionally getting him into trouble with the law for trespassing.
Alex is slow to anger in terms of provocation, though his fuse is much shorter in cases of injustice or when dealing with bullies and the like. He has a competitive streak as well, but tries to restrain himselfName: Alex Leffen
Kinship: Mythikin
Myth/Legend: Phoenix
Gender: M
Age: 15
Physical Features: (Changed by the Oscillation)
Alex's previously blue eyes have become a bright fiery orange, and two wings of the same bright orange have sprouted from his back. These span around two meters in diameter and are fully flexible, being able to wrap around Alex's body and hide under clothing if necessary (though this would result in a fair bit of discomfort). His body temperature has risen significant, though not noticeable to Alex, both his skin and feathers give off heat comparable to a radiator. Despite this his metabolism has stayed unchanged, suggesting a more magical origin.
Appearance: None, although the back of his shirt is now pretty ripped up thanks to the new wings
Personality: Though still retaining a thick skin, Alex has become a lot more competitive. Most of his other personality traits have been amplified to different degrees, being far more protective of his friends and enjoying the adrenaline and excitement that before were simply parts of his regular endeavours.
Mythos:
In Ancient Greek folklore, a phoenix is a long-lived bird that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. Some legends say it dies in a show of flames and combustion, others that it simply dies and decomposes before being born again. Most accounts say that it lived for 500 years before rebirth. Herodotus, Lucan, Pliny the Elder, Pope Clement I, Lactantius, Ovid, and Isidore of Seville are among those who have contributed to the retelling and transmission of the phoenix motif. The phoenix symbolizes renewal in general, as well as entities and concepts such as the Sun, time, the Roman Empire, Christ, and Mary.
Skill Sheet:
Cluster skill: From the Ashes
Passive skill: RebirthPassive skill: Fire aura
Any form of wounds can be healed upon introducing the full body of the phoenix to an open flame, including full revival. The speed of this process depends on the heat of the fire, a basic campfire being able to fully revive the body within about three hours The However, missing body parts such as an arm or a leg cannot be regrown, although can be reattached if laid next to the original body.
Active skill: Fireblast
Summon a ball of fire between the tips of your wings and throw it forwards.
The power and amount of energy is determined by the ambient temperature of the surrounding area, with room temperature acting as a baseline

Looks good, accepted.Name: Taika Agaue.
Gender: Male.
Age: 16.
Physical Features: Taika stands at 5’9 and weighed around 184 Ibs, nothing too impressive for his age. He has dusty brown hair along with deep brown eyes, he doesn’t have many defined muscles and is overall pretty average and normal looking.
Appearance: He tends to wear a dark blue hooded tracksuit along with red trainers. His left ear is pierced with a golden stud and he often wears quite a bit more jewellery in order to make up for his average appearance.
Personality: He has a huge inferiority complex as he feels he doesn’t stand out in anyway at all. He is quite shy sans generally doesn’t engage in conversation unless someone approaches him and starts talking to him. However he some times tries to over compensate by wearing flashy jewellery a lot of the time. He sees school as a waste of his time especially since no one bothers with him.
Name: Taika Agaue.
Kinship: Mythkin.
Myth/Legend: Fenrir.
Gender: Male.
Age: 16.
Physical Features: Taika no longer stands at the average size of 5’9, but now at a very tall: 7’3 and he weighs at around 234 Ibs. He also now has dark blue as his hair colour along with crimson red eyes. Sharp fangs now fill out his entire mouth and he has a very short blue tail. His hair has become a lot more scruffy and wild along with him gaining slight sideburns going near the top of his cheeks. His arms and legs have elongated a little which makes him seem even bigger now. His muscles have became more define and he now has a quite muscular build. He is now the opposite of boring and average and would now stand out in most crowds.
Personality: His personality had changed quite a bit along with his appearance. Taika is no longer a shy and quiet kid but now he is a lot more confident and even maybe a little cocky and arrogant now. He doesn’t have to over compensate now as he doesn’t have to make up for anything now. He finds it a lot easier talking to people now. However he may have had too much of a confidence boost.
Mythos:
Fenrir, also called Fenrisúlfr, monstrous wolf of Norse Mythology. He was the son of the demoniac god Loki and a giantess, Angerboda. Fearing Fenir’s strength and knowing that only evil could be expected of him, the gods bound him with a magical chain made of the sound of a cat’s footsteps, the beard of a woman, the breath of a fish, and other occult elements. When the chain was placed upon him, Fenrir bit off the hand of the god Tyr. He wasn’t gagged with a sword and was destined to lie bound to the rock until the Ragnarök (Doomsday), when he will break his bonds and fall upon the gods. According to one version of the myth, Fenrir will devour the sun and in the Ragnarök he will fight against the chief god Odin and swallow him. Odin’s som Vidar will avenge his father, stabbing the wolf to the heart according to one account and tearing his jaws asunder according to another. Fenrir figures prominently in Norwegian and Icelandic poetry of the 10th and 11th centuries, and the poets speak apprehensively of the day when he will break loose.Devourer of the Sun (Cluster)

Yeah, I'll see what I can think of. Was having trouble getting ideas going today and the myth wasn't giving me much to work with, but as long as you're happy with me improvising I can pad out the ability sheet a bit moreI would low agility a bit, but other than that looking good!
Though I notice a lack of...abilities in general. Are you just going for general tossing fireballs and the rebirth through fire motif? It's a pretty powerful skill in the right circumstances, though beware things that can extinguish your flame as you'll not be nearly as resilient against them.
I take it his high resilience is some kind of fire-form? I'd like a few more of those things laid out in the skill sheet xD
