Taejin

The only cleaver-type weapons I can think of are the Giantsgall Cleavers (or alternatively, the Direwolf Cleavers). Hell, if you're feeling ambitious, Titan's NIN gear works, too. EDIT: Goes to show how bad I am at this.

I. Basic Info [*]Characters:Taejin Gensei [*] Primary character:That's a tough one... [*] Linkshells:None, as of yet [*] Primary RP linkshell:** II. RP Style [*]Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy):Light, for now. Me being new to RP entirely, I'd like to start slow to at least get a feel for it. Before you're a soldier, you gotta do basic training like every other recruit, right? [*] Views on RP combat and injuries:As a technical pacifist (IC and OOC), I tend to shy away from serious conflict with others unless it's funny. Friendly duels and sparring are okay though. [*] Views on IC romance:I am a socially inept potato (... not a lala-pun), so you'll forgive me for not extending my boundless optimism to this particular subject. But really, I tend to view ANY relationship, real or not, in a more serious light. So unless I REALLY jive with a particular lady, I don't see this happening. [*] Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc):Bring it. That's the beauty of clan systems... extended families! [*] Views on lore:A shortcut or addendum here or there is fine, but as a story buff and lore fiend in... well, every game ever, I would rather not break canon. As canon as we get, anyway. [*] Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc):I'll wait till I get a separate keyboard for my PS4, but as abysmal a typist as I am now, I'm still uncomfortable switching between the FC and party chat. Lemme get some practice first. III. Other Info [*]Country:United States [*] Timezone:Eastern [*] Contact info:...Here? I'll, uh, work on this one.

STAHP, the interest, ees so weird, so FOREIGN. I can't handle it. ...But seriously, it sounds like fun times are to be had whether I get serious with this or not. Thank you for the encouragement/offer of assistance. When next I emerge from my basement in the Goblet, this'll be my 1st stop.

Rather late, but this seems fun. Taejin named his turrets (Gerra and Marduk Tulen and Veden for the Rook and Bishop, respectively) and genuinely finds it odd that others don't. 15 years of solitude'll do that to a guy. ...Yeah, he's out there. He tunnel-visions HARD when when working on something. Pretty much the only real way to get his attention would be to pull his tool out of his hand, after which he'll just look at you and say "Hi". Tends to spin his wrench in his left hand when deep in thought. Tied to the 1st point, he is seriously considering installing mammet cores into Gerra and Marduk Tulen and Veden... so others may join them in conversation. Due to his personal aether being heavily lightning-aspected, his hair tends to flare up slightly when agitated due to the static generated. On the more serious side, he has an intense phobia of dragons due to nearly being killed by the Father of Dragons himself at Silvertear. (The journey through Dravania in HW was not pleasant, to say the least) EDIT: Some quirks changed/removed for re-work, if anyone notices or cares. I'm trying.

Ha! Really does sound like me. At most Ill say "hi" and then lurk in the background of a party until I magically reverse a horrific turn of events. Thanks for the offer. Also, someone already wants me to transfer to Balmung. So, maybe someday we WILL meet in game... (Do I really seem that interesting? Its weird.)

After about 3 hours of staring at my screen, I finally decided to say "Screw it, nothing to lose yet." I'll be honest, I'm completely new to the RP scene, not because it was weird to me (mostly), but because I've always been incredibly timid. I can barely ask my FC for a run through *insert dungeon here*, and I'm the LEADER. Never mind walking into Hawker's Alley and stumbling into a not-so-legitimate business deal I may or may not be accepting of. Figured I'd start here, at least to test the waters. Taejin himself is technically Doman, not by blood (possibly) but through adoption. He is veeery quiet, VEEERY patient, humble (to the point of self-deprecation) and due to the overwhelmingly skewed female-to-male ratio in the Gensei clan, courteous yet easily flustered around the fairer sex. He WILL NOT use magic in nearly any form due to an incident from his past (another time), though his personal aether signature is heavily lightning-aspected. He currently works openly as an engineer (MCH, ARM, GSM, BSM), but recently his past has come back to haunt him... in more ways than one. ...This got really long, I'm sorry. Guess I'm more into this than I thought. THOUGH, as you might have noticed to your left, my server is Famfrit. I can muster all the courage I would ever need, I've NEVER seen an RP'er here. So, for now at least, I'm restricting myself to here. In any case, a pleasure to meet you all. /bow
