Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Yuuko Asou - 12-05-2015
Character name: Yuuko Asou
Aliases: The Valis Warrior, The Fantasm Soldier
Character source: Valis Video Game Series (specifically after the end of Valis 3 on the Sega Master System)
Character history: Although Yuuko has the appearance of a normal human girl (despite her naturally blue hair), she was not originality born on Earth in her universe. She was born in a world called Dream World. First daughter of Queen Valia, Yuuko was destined to become the Valis Warrior and save Dream World from disaster. Trouble was already brewing as forces from the Demon World threatened the safety of Dream World. In order to protect her child, Queen Valia secretly sent Yuuko to Earth so that she might grow up in relative peace until she was old enough to take the mantle. Yuuko grew up in Tokyo completely unaware of her true heritage. She considered her adoptive parents her true parents and thought she was just like any other girl. While she was quiet and a bit of a daydreamer, she was kind to others whenever possible. She made a few friends in school, one of which was her best friend, Reiko. Her normal life came crashing down around her at age 16. Rogles, a demon lord who had risen to power, discovered Yuuko's location and sent a swarm of demons to Earth for the purpose of killing her. Queen Valia barely had time to send Yuuko her keepsake weapon, the Valis Sword. With the magical blade in hand, Yuuko fought off her attackers. Queen Valia teleported Yuuko to Dream World and told Yuuko to fight the demonic army using her holy blade. Yuuko had initially refused to help but Queen Valia gave her little choice in the matter if she wanted to return to Earth. Meanwhile, Rogles decided to put another piece in play. He recruited and brainwashed Reiko into serving as his champion. When Yuuko learned that Reiko had been dragged into this mess, she tried to save her best friend. The Valis Warrior tried her best to go for non-lethal blows but one unlucky sword swing gave Reiko a fatal wound. Reiko died in Yuuko's arms as she asked if they were still friends. With renewed determination, Yuuko forced her way through Rogles' army and killed him. Yuuko returned to Earth and tried to live out a double life as the Valis Warrior.
After Rogles fell, Demon Lord Megas rose to power. He consolidated the army and hunted down any Rogles loyalists. Although he had plans to invade Earth, his first priority was Queen Valia. He struck Dream World hard and killed Queen Valia just before Yuuko returned. In Queen Valia's will, Yuuko learned the truth about her heritage as well as the fact that she had a younger sister named Valna. After ensuring the safety of her sister, Yuuko focused on stopping the new demon lord. Once more, Yuuko faced down the monstrous beings of the Demon World and slew Megas. Although Yuuko was the eldest daughter and rightful heir of Queen Valia, she had no desire to rule and gave Valna the throne. Yuuko returned to Earth once again and tried to live out her life.
Demon Lord Glames rose to power so after. After suffering two defeats to the Valis Warrior, the demon lord sought out the legendary blade, Leethus. Leethus was considered to be Valis' counterpart. A sword of darkness to counteract a sword of light. With this weapon in hand, he believed that he could succeed where the previous lords failed. Furthermore, he had little time to delay. The reason the Demon World forces kept invading Dream World and Earth was because the planet was in its death throngs. In less than a year, the Demon World would be incapable of supporting life. Glames felt the only recourse was to invade other worlds and resettle. Just like Megas, he focused on Dream World first in order to avoid the gaze of the Valis Warrior. Unfortunately, a demoness named Cham defected and snuck away to Earth. Cham's goal was to steal the Valis Sword so she could use it against Glames but her plan failed. After catching Cham and rescuing her from Glames' forces, Yuuko decided to team up with the Demoness to stop Glames. They headed to Dream World and saved Valna from Glames' minions. The trio then sought out the sage Nizetti who was capable of unlocking the Valis Sword's true potential. However, if he performed this service, Yuuko's double life would be over. She would no longer be able to hide on Earth. Yuuko felt that the people of Dream World needed the full might of the Valis Warrior and made her choice. Yuuko, Cham and Valna headed for the Demon World, defeated Glames' generals and confronted the demon lord himself. Valis and Leethus were both legendary blades thought to have shaped worlds in the past. Only their respective wielders had any chance of facing each other. Yuuko and Glames fought a grueling battle until finally the demon lord was defeated. With his dying breath, he gave Yuuko the Leethus sword and proclaimed that Yuuko would decide the fate of his people. Yuuko thought that the best way to avoid further conflict was to allow the survivors of the Demon World to migrate to Dream World and integrate. Valna would rule over the unified factions while Cham would act as her adviser and general. Yuuko's mind shifted to the two legendary blades. She was worried that both swords would be abused if they remained on Dream World, thus she used Valis' full power to leave Dream World.
Yuuko wanted to travel beyond her world to find a place where no one would ever be able to use the twin swords. She used their combined power to sustain her body as she flew through the vastness of space. Alone with her thoughts, she came to terms with her personal mission. Valis and Leethus were capable of destroying armies and even if she held them until the day she died, there was no guarantee that the next generation wouldn't start another war with them. Yuuko assumed that this was a one way trip and even contemplated flying into the nearest Black Hole. She did not tell her allies about her morbid mission for fear they might try to stop her. She left them with a smile. Suddenly, the stars winked out of her view and her magic armor powered by the Valis Sword reverted back to its basic form. The void had taken her and given her immortality. In a strange way, she found what she was looking for, but not in the way she expected or wanted at all.
Physical Description: (originals only)
Stats:
ATK: 3
DEF: 4
SPD: 1
TEC: 2
Starting Proficiencies: Physical Strength proficiency (1000 OM), Ranged Proficiency (1000 OM), Area Shield Proficiency (400 OM)
Starting Powers: Basic Super Jumping (300 OM) - One of the few abilities Yuuko can perform without the aid of Valis or Leethus, Yuuko's athletic nature combined with her unusual lineage allow her to jump higher than a normal human. While her vertical jump is much better than her horizontal long jump, she rarely utilizes this feat unless threatened or desperate.
Master Acrobat (400 OM) - After being hit by more attacks than she would care to even remember, Yuuko learned the importance of dodging. She is adapt at using the momentum of her foe's attack to roll away from dangerous situations.
Starting Moves: Valis Sword (requires Physical Strength) – 300 OM
Often referred to as the Sword of Light in her dimension, Valis is a narrow longsword roughly 4 feet long with a quarter foot wide blade. Designed for speed and accuracy rather than power, the blade is almost weightless in the hands of a master. Normally, Valis has a sentient spirit residing inside it, but this presence has been oddly silent since arriving in the Omniverse.
Leethus Sword (requires Physical Strength) – 300 OM
The dark blade Leethus is a 5 foot long broadsword with a foot wide blade. While the weight of the blade makes it slow to wield effectively, the power behind each swing is greater than standard weapons. Just like Valis, this spirit holds a sentient spirit as well. However, it never truly bonded with Yuuko and wouldn't have spoken to her even if it still had the ability.
Holy Slash (requires Physical Strength, Ranged Proficiency) – 300 OM
This move can only be used while Yuuko is currently wielding Valis in her primary (right) hand. The Valis sword glows with a pale blue light as Yuuko makes a single slashing attack in front of her. Regardless of whether she is standing in front of something or merely slashing at empty air, a wave of light about half a foot wide and three feet long is released from her blade. The wave shoots forward in a straight line until it connects with a solid object or reaches a distance of 15 feet. If the wave hits an object, it will slice through it as if Yuko had swung the Valis Sword directly upon that spot before dissipating. Anything behind the object will not be damaged. If the wave hits a sentient creature (artificial creatures with their own minds count and simply wearing mundane armor will not stop the attack without another form of shielding), the wave leaves no lasting marks on the body but the pain of being slashed by Valis is still felt. Anyone behind the damaged person is not affected by the wave. The wave dissipates harmlessly if it has not struck anything beyond 15 feet.
Divine Shield (requires Area Shield Proficiency) – Tier 1 Super Move – 600 OM
This move can only be used while Yuuko is currently wielding Valis in her primary (right) hand. Yuuko uses the power of Valis to create an ethereal form fitting shield around her body. While her shield does not last long, it is capable of blocking a single powerful Tier 1 attack.
I confirm that I have read and agreed to the Rules of Conduct.
yes
Where did you find us?
I was doing a web search for roleplay forums and I stumbled upon this site.
[spoiler]Just for more details, my ultimate goal is to have Yuuko dual-wield both Valis and Leethus with alternate forms to match. This is why some of my powers state that Yuuko must have Valis in her primary hand. First I will build up Valis' power suite fully, then go on to Leethus. In the game series, Yuuko only got this sword after beating the final boss and never had an opportunity to use it at all so I think I can build on that. Finally, she will have powers that she can only use when dual-wielding. There might be a power or two that can be used between all forms but I want to keep that to a minimum for balance sake.
Edit: Since I would need to make the purchase for flight anyway it seems a little redundant to have a move that is worse than basic flight. I can just upgrade super jumping and fluff it that Valis is doing the flying part. Maybe I can even turn this super power into a special attack eventually. For now, I am dropping it completely. To fix my sheet, I'll be buying Area Shield Proficiency. Seems I have a lot of proficiencies to focus on if I want to make her really work. Still, that's part of the fun of seeing a character grow.
Added more detail to the Holy Slash ability.[/spoiler]
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Proto Man - 12-05-2015
Only concern is that Super Move, since you can't use Moves to access Powers you don't have. You'd need to purchase Flight to use that.
The rest of the application is great, so I'll let you try and rework the super or you can keep it on the backburner until a little further down the road. Let me (or any Angel) know, and we'll either work with you on the move or get you approved with the rest of your application.
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Yuuko Asou - 12-05-2015
I editted my post and removed the power. I figure I can use the points to lay ground work for other powers and focus on flight further in the future. Besides, Yuuko was ground bound in her first game and didn't even get to fly till the second and third one. In a way, this is fitting since she is starting from the beginning again.

Approved or not Bump?
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Yuuko Asou - 12-12-2015
I'd rather not step on any toes so I won't post anywhere else until I get official word.
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Albert Wesker - 12-12-2015
Just to step in and cover something to further the trip down approval road here, to make a full-body shield you'll need Area Shield Proficiency. As things stand you don't have enough OM to grab that with everything else, so you'll need to either wait on the Super Defense there for the moment, or remove another item for now.
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Yuuko Asou - 12-12-2015
Ah, sorry about that. Since I plan to keep Divine shield, it's an easy fix. Replacing Homing Proficiency with Area Shield Proficiency. I'll be taking the former later on for another power which I don't have the OM to actually get now anyway. I've made the changes now.

what happens when Holy Slash makes Contact with A person or physical Object?
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Yuuko Asou - 12-13-2015
I added more detail regarding that. If there is anything else, please let me know.
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Minato Namikaze - 12-13-2015
Okay, so just for my clarification, When the wave hits someone, it slams into them, and makes them feel as though they are being slashed by a sword, but no physical lacerations appear?
Re: Joining - Yuuko Asou aka The Valis Warrior - Yuuko Asou - 12-13-2015
Correct. Behold the "logic" behind magical girl attacks. They can blow people up and still somehow not cause a fatality...well, at least 90% of the time.
