Updating Illyas

[Jun]

After looking some things over, I've decided it would probably be a good idea to fix Illyas up a bit.

So!

Illyas Aion
Profile: Here

First, I decided to giving the poor archer a sword instead of forcing him to rely on rather difficult-to-use-hidden-elbow-blades or a Wind Sword that takes one post to even create.

So this needs to be put under Twin Espadas in Illyas' profile.


[b]ID[/b]: White Wind

A basic longsword with a blade that is pure white in colour, complimented by a hilt that is...also white. Generally locked away in its sheath, since Illyas isn't much of a sword-fighter.


Next up is...Abilities!

As a certain C-Mod pointed out upon creation, my Crosswind ability was rather...messy.

So! Here's my less-confusing version that is hopefully still in the same spirit.


[Crosswind]

Though an archer at heart, Illyas has learned that a little magic can turn the tides of battle if used well. Rather than training in the various elements and styles, Illyas opted to master a single element: Wind Magic. Originally studied in order to simply made Wind Arrows in an emergency, he has since learned to mold wind into a number of shapes and sizes. It should be noted that arrows made of Wind are noticeably stronger (about 2 times) than a regular arrow.

In an attempt to make a more lasting object (like a sword of wind), one post is required to charge.

In making an Incredibly Strong Arrow (which is about 5 times as strong as a regular arrow, so 2.5 Wind Arrows), one post is also needed to charge. But note! There will be 2 post cooldown rather than one, and only 3 of these Incredibly Strong Arrows may be used per thread.

[i]Strength:[/i] Strong
[i]Uses:[/i] One arrow per post
[i]Charge Time:[/i] Anything other than a Regular Wind Arrow takes 1 post to charge
[i]Cooldown:[/i] Anything other than a Regular Wind Arrow has 1 post cooldown

[Gemini Shot]

Making the most of his wind magic, Illyas charges wind onto an arrow before loading it into his bow. Upon release, the wind can separate from the arrow mid-flight at Illyas' command into a Wind Arrow, which may go on to curve into the same target as the regular arrow or fire off in another direction completely.

[i]Strength[/i]: Weak
[i]Uses[/i]: Once per post
[i]Cooldown:[/i] One post between uses (cannot be used repeatedly)

[Overwork Elegy]

Through years of training, Illyas has gained a mastery of all four archery stances (Even, Open, Closed, Oblique) and is capable of quickly getting into them in almost any situation. Most notable is his ability to go from a full out run and stop in his stance of choice perfectly, letting him fire off an arrow before he even stops and having another arrow ready to fire before the first has even reached its target. In fact, he can even has the rather impressive ability to load and fire two arrows at a time, though his aim is only at about 75% when doing so.

[i]Strength:[/i] Weak
[i]Passive[/i]


I also reworded Gemini Shot and Overwork Elegy.

I'd post the whole profile in code, but I don't actually have it saved and can't pull it from the profile on the site since it's locked, so sorry about that.

So yes, assuming this all flies with staff, this is going straight to Illyas' profile. Thanks to whoever does that.

Aw, it's been a whole week and no one helped.

Seriously though, someone mind moving this into Illyas' profile?

EDIT: Okay, I remembered to put Overwork Elegy in this time.

So MOVE THIS IN!

...please

*scoff* C-Mod indeed. I'll have you know that I am a G-Mod! Ahrm!
