Infinite Stratos Character Creation and Fanfiction Discussion

[HasuMasu]

just putting this guy out there, first time doing this, my fan-made character which i, spending countless hours lying in bed and standing around in the bathroom, much to the dismay of myself and my roommate, decided to make

well, hope it's interesting

Spoiler for my (possibly AU-ish character):

Name: Satoshi (codename), Yuusuke (possible real name)

Gender: Male.

Hair: Black, lengthy, spiky, messy.

Eyes: Initially black, but i'll explain later.

Body: Fair skin (not dead-looking though), his body is...well, think of Ulquoria from bleach in his segunda etapa (without all the demonic stuff ofcourse).

Height: Slightly taller than Ichika.

Age: Presumably around the age of the main characters.

Alignment: Unclear, presumably chaotic good.

Personality: Now this one is a bit touchy since his personality is...far from normal, he acts, almost all the time, without letting a sliver of his true face slip through his mask, probably the only ones who get to see his true nature (and just a small portion of it) will be us, the viewers, his "mask" changes depending on who he's with, where he is, etc. he usually puts on the guise of a nice guy (though he might actually be one...it's possible), regularly teases other characters (though his verbal interaction will be limited to a few people only), and he often pretends to be clumsy and incapable, though this is probably not true since his abilities, when displayed, usually catch people around him off-guard, though he is careful to not make himself seem too capable so as not to "blow his cover", since he is a guy, although he isn't a regular student at the academy, there will be the same reaction to him as you would expect, considering he is a guy, he is nice enough to his "fans" at the academy, but shows no particular romantic interest (outside his obvious teasing), although he sometimes lets a bit of particular concern to a certain character slip through his mask sometimes, he is usually able to dismiss it as more teasing, basically think of his acting as on par (if not surpassing) light yagami or lelouch, he's the "read between the lines within the lines" character that nobody seems to be able to read or understand, and usually confuses a particular girl with "does he really like me or is he just teasing again"?

Abilities: The full extent of his abilities is not expanded upon, as i said, he's careful not to let it slip through, although from what the viewer is able to gather through flashbacks and small glimpses of his abilities, he is presumably very capable, his IS is only ever used, at most, partially, although it is hinted that there is no "complete" version of it.

Background: Again, not revealed in it's entireity but from what the viewer can gather based on flashbacks, and the bits that he makes known to us, his past is presumably grim, think of bruce wayne/tetsuo/wolverine/akira/nagato, yup, it's pretty messed up, from what we know, his parents disappeared, likely killed, at some point he was experimented on (for what we do not know, presumably his "psuedo-newtype" abilities, which might have something to do with being able to pilot IS, anyway, he eventually escaped and traveled, presumably using IS, to an obscure village in Japan, in which he was able to live in an abandoned house for a while, at some point though, mysterious people came to his location and tore up the village looking for him, these were, probably the same people who killed his parents, and experimented on him, realizing this, he fights back a bit and somehow escapes, some time, presumably years later, a mysterious figure appears in, what appears to be some sort of base, and, in true solid snake style, takes down the guards, infiltrates the building, and eventually, makes his way, all the while taking out guards and being sneaky, to what appears to be a room full of tubes with glowing purple liquid, with ofcourse, the inclusion of deformed humans, our mysterious figure takes a look and, sure enough, a deranged looking man in a lab-coat appears and seems to have been waiting for him, he, ofcourse, goes on to explain a few things to our silent mystery man, after which, he, sure enough, takes off his helmet, pulls out a switch, sets off some bombs that he, apparently set before-hand, and silently walks out while our deranged scientist makes his last remarks. Thus concluding what we know about him prior to his involvement in the main story.

thus concludes the, i have to apologize, lengthy introduction to our, quite obviously alternate-universe fan-made character Yuu--...err...Satoshi.

hope it was interesting and...

thanks for sitting through that boring wall of text

[Kyuu]

Just throw both Lerouche and Suzaku (Code Geass) in here to see what happens.

[kramerica]

Probably a Lelouch X Suzaku end

[Terminator98]

lolzors....

Anyways, I need some particular info regarding the IS Cannonverse... does someone have an idea what the Student Council is composed of, and what are the requirements to be in it? I thought that perhaps having a student council would look like FUHNZ (and help me develop some more stuff for my FF, which is getting overhauled again)...

[MeisterBabylon]

All I know is Tatenashi is the president...

[Terminator98]

Was there any mention of other students, or the exact amount of members? I was thinking of having a "fictional" student council that like manages the 1st year students...

[MeisterBabylon]

I don't believe the seitokai yakuinidono have been named, which was why I was at first interested in tossing Karon there... until Imouto hijacked plans and joined the IS Gakuen Keionbun.

[Saint X]

still trying to heave 2-3 episodes worth of missing information and unknown scenes to writing

[Terminator98]

jaja, thanks for the info. I'll be posting my creations soon, once I get to enter these 2 week vacations...

[Saint X]

Here's another something.

Spoiler for End of Known Phases : Part 1 of x : Preparation Part 1:

14:45:23

“Byakushiki and Akatsubaki are going down, I repeat, Byakushiki and Akatsubaki are going down!” the alarmed words of an observer’s helper were the only words that were coming thru the silence was present there at the moment.

The look on Gerard’s face was that of the mix of two lines- “Damn” and “I knew it”.

<A few hours ago>

10:00:01

“Far Sight System, Activate.”

[System Active]

And on prompt of the command, a semi-spherical area with the “chandelier” at its apex was demarcated and filled in with what seemed to be a field of 1s and 0s, like in The Matrix. Moments later, a login screen appeared before Gerard, who promptly entered the password to the system.

[Welcome Gerard]

Immediately, the view went from The Matrix, to back in the room that they were in, plus a few screens appearing near each person within the demarcation- this was the indication that the system was ready and zeroed in.

“Hmmm...” Gerard thought as he moved his hands towards a sphere that materialized before him seconds before. “Let’s see.”

He then moved the sphere a bit, moving the view towards the area of the door, where on the other side, the hotel staff were busy moving carts full of lunch trays into position, demonstrating the capabilities of the system. Basically, the Far Sight System is a special visual system based on IS technology that allows it’s user and/or any observers within the area of projection to see anything within a given area, within a given distance, as if a camera was placed on that location. He had received 2 such units from a small company known as C’rnadyne Technologies, the only known maker of the system- the first one he had installed in his building back at the Academy Complex- which he planned to testing it during the matches- well until a certain German went berserk that is, and the other was this mobile system.

“Good.” Gerard thought as he moved his viewing area around, until his viewing area was inside the “Control Center” that was set up at the inn. “Open Channel.”

Meanwhile, back at the inn, Chiifuyu and her team were still preparing for the upcoming operation, while the students involved were not there, also preparing for it- especially the two pilots that were going to be the primaries for the operation.

“Teacher Orimura, incoming transmission from ‘The Observer’.” One of the teacher-operators called out.

“I’ll take it on a private channel.”

Moments later Chifuyu was on the private channel.

“And what do you want?”

“Well, just waiting for the appointed time.” Gerard chuckled. “And to try and relieve the tension. I can feel it in your voice- the tremors of uneasiness... you’re nervous about this, aren’t you?”

Chifuyu did not say a word.

“I know. That silence is proof of your extreme worry. We can’t help it at this time- circumstances and all. And to be honest, every time you go into ‘silent worry mode’, my whole body hurts like heck- as if ‘that’ happened yesterday.”

Chifuyu remained silent.

“I offer no assurance of anything- even a shoulder is a far off possibility. But then, you knew what were the consequences are and that you prepared for them. When the time comes when failure is a reality, there is a wall you can place your back on and think a bit- and grab a brick or two from it to use as a weapon.”

A simple grunt came across the line.

“Heh. Well anyways, we are still having problems linking the feed to your end- our guys are having a hard time with resolving it so I can only give to you copies of what we see later on.”

“That will be enough.”

“Likewise.”

And with that, the channel was closed and Gerard went back to testing the system out- by moving his field of view towards the entrance of the inn, where he spotted a young twintailed blond, with something slung behind her. He then adjusted the view a bit and quickly recognized the said subject- because of the uniform she wore.

“Looks like one of the C’rnadyne Reps has come to visit. But why at such a time?” Gerard noted. “Nevermind. Time to check on the Secondaries- and test this baby.”

Gerard once again shifted his view, this time hundreds of kilometers away, towards the north. Moments later he managed to find he was looking for- a group of 3 IS units flying low and passing over a town at the moment. He quickly identified the personal units as those from class 1-3, namely El Santa Maria d/el Flamenco or El Flamenco, flown by Juana Mallari, a Spanish Representative, the Adarna, flown by Philippine Representative Maria Estevez and the Metatron, flown by Elena Zobel (for purposes of keeping the name short, I have used the first surname in the combination). He quickly noticed something about the Adarna unit, it was not in the usual IS form, but it looked more like a fighter aircraft than IS at the moment.

“Looks like they finally upgraded the unit to the 3G spec.” Gerard thought as he pulled out the information panels regarding the units. “First it was a bird, now a plane...”

He then focused his attention to the blue-colored Revive-modeled Metatron, which he noted as “being towed” by the Adarna.

“Hmmm... two shields, a drone control and... is that a tractor beam? First time I’ve seen one in actual operation.” He then thought as he moved his view around the duo, trying to see more of the faint green beam that was associated with the unit- so said his cousin. “Then, something is up with the wings.”

He quickly pulled out the panel for the Metatron and shifted towards the fourth “Equipment” tab. He then scrolled down towards the “Subsystems” section and found something that was new to him.

“‘Pulsed Emission Capacitor’ and ‘Jump Drive Carrier’?”

This reading was suddenly interrupted by the appearance of an update message. And while that was happening, we focus to the C’rnadyne Representative that was spotted earlier, or rather to the Control Center which just received a message.

“Teacher Oriumra, reception says that there is someone who needs to see you immediately.” the Teacher-Operator called out. “They say that’s it’s regarding one of the IS of the secondary team.”

“At a time like this? This better be important.”

“We still have 1 hour before the operation.”

“Open the channel.” Chifuyu then commanded, which was then promptly followed, showing the appearance of the representative.

10:30:22

“Identify yourself and give me a good reason to entertain you at this crucial time.” Chifuyu spoke in her usual voice- which also sounded grumpy at times.

“I am Kirika Kristel from C’rnadyne Technologies. I am here according to the guidelines of the IS Treaty regarding the release of new technologies.” The representative began “I initially talked with the Academy Management but they referred me to you- and that the very nature of the system will eventually warrant a meeting with the teachers- particularly you, Ms. Orimura, sooner or later.”

“Explain.” Chifuiyu demanded, giving a signal to the Teacher-Operator to confirm the statements. “What is this system? Before you answer, allow me to let somebody into this discussion.”

Back at the Hotel, Gerard was still waiting for the information to update when one of his operators came into the line.

“Sir, we have Orimura on Channel 4- the Elder.”

“I’ll take it.”

And returning to the inn...

“Now begin.” Chifuyu then spoke.

“Very well then. Ms. Orimura and Mr. Archangel, do you have the complete info file of the IS known as [Metatron], am I correct? If so, please take it out.”

“We have it.”

“And if you recall, the [Metatron] is a heavily modified transition-generation IS that is capable of conforming to any situation by selecting what to equip via it’s [Pentagraph Strategic Subsystem Configuration System]- allowing it a strategic advantage over the situation, but as with strategy, it can only be effective when tactics are in line.” The representative began. “To make things short and concise, we had added another set of subsystems to the 4x5 the [Metatron] uses, bringing the total number of possible combinations from 4845, to...”

“53130.” Gerard replied. “Even the initial number is too much for the girl.”

“Not really. If she had been overwhelmed, she would have been out a long time ago. But enough of that- we only need to focus on one of the subsystems. It’s called the [Jump Drive Carrier]. What it does in a nutshell is that it uses the Quantum Conversion and Transfer System used in transporting modules and equalizers to transport the IS and its user and/or allies across long distances almost instantly.”

“Wait, wait, wait.” Gerard interrupted. “You’re telling me that you can transport an IS and it’s pilot via the Q-CAT System? How about the pilot? does it pose any risk?”

“Mr. Archangel, I am the living proof that this system works. And as I have said, it uses the transport system to basically act in two ways; first is basically letting the IS Jump from A to B by using its [Jump Drive], and second is opening a [Jump Bridge] to allow the IS’s ‘Allies’ to pass thru as if they were equipped with the system itself, before the opening IS closes it by passing thru or by command.”

“This system would not only revolutionize IS combat, but warfare in general- armies moving great distances instantly would be hard to counter.” Gerard commented, outlining the risks.

“The way we developed the subsystem is such that it would not be used for such hard-hitting purposes- like sending armies. That’s why I am here- because a door cannot be opened without its key.” The representative continued, pulling out the thing that was on her back, which looked like a rod of sorts. “Ta-da! I introduce to you the C’rnadyne Beacon Field Generator!”

The look on both Gerard and Chifuyu’s faces were of no amusement, nonetheless they simply went silent and let the representative talk some more.

“This is the ‘key’ element to getting the [Jump Drive] to work. Merely activating the drive would enable a successful movement from point A, but as quantum space is a very wild place, it will not end up at point B where it’s needed 99.9999% of the time. To make things short, this ‘key’ generates the field where the IS and/or it’s allies can land on- much like the equipment beacons the IS have on their hands, feet or anywhere that is an equalizer hardpoint.”

“So basically, that is a ‘marker’. Makes some sort of sense.” Gerard commented.

“Correct, and this part of the system we will keep to ourselves at the moment, for the reasons outlined above- and just in case one of these babies ends up in the wrong hands, he have a ‘special protocol’ installed that will only allow them either a single use or none- especially if they had just stolen it after being activated.”

“Okay enough of the techbabble.” Chifuyu interrupted. “So your point is that we need to rely on you to evacuate our students and teachers if things became worse? Don’t you know that lives may be at stake here?”

“That worried tone is exactly one of the many reasons why we do this. It appears that you may not be well versed in the realities of true combat. Even if I’m as naive as anyone who has not experienced true fighting, the people behind me are not as such. It would be your responsibility if in the slightest chance of a mishap everyone that was in the area became casualties- casualties not by the hands of the target you are seeking to capture, but by the hands of the one who sent them to their needless termination.”

The sudden coldness of the representative’s statement have stopped the conversation cold. Gerard can feel the tension in the air- so much that he opened his mouth a bit to try and take a bite, just to see if he can taste it. A few tense moments later, the representative cleared her throat and issued, what seemed to be an ultimatum.

“You have until 11:30 to decide.”

10:40:22

To be continued

[FlameSparkZ]

Hmm, the thread's activity slowed down quite a bit

Well, I'm trying to finish the story over at Nanoha OC thread, and wrapping up other stuff (like games I've yet to finish)

So I won't be posting much story here, but might comment once in a while

[MeisterBabylon]

I'm busy with Nanoha x Dog Days, but right now as the information is lacking I'm still attempting to rework my Toaru RP I crafted for Spacebattles to turn it into a proper fic. IS fell a little low on the ladder, but now that I have a clear plan I can continue.

Though Saintess might not take too kindly to my hijacking his IS and OC for some plans in future. This is with regards to my theories of IS, so it will be explained. But given the social engineering of Big Brother government in Singapore, having 3 prototype MPIS in the same class, one of them piloted by a White Horse, is no coincidence.


EDIT: The PAP Empire and the Opposition Rebel Alliance can go bash each other to bits this season I don't care.

[Heineko]

...so in this dimension, I have an orange suit of armor? Did the Rafale company hire Tony Stark as fashion designer?!

Whatever. At least the guns are as neat as the revolving stake.

Interesting material created so far. I might even hazard a little play myself. Though I wonder, what Onii-san is cooking with the rest of you creatures from here?

[MeisterBabylon]

Get out of here, STALKER! Thread's on long term hiatus.

Unless you're here to add to the technobabble...

[Saint X]

shhh people are cloaked and waiting

[Malkuth]

Not really sure in which thread to ask, but has anyone seen Ishikei's doujinshi from ComicOne (こんなのですいませんっ!!!) (konna no desu imasen)? How many pages is it?

[Terminator98]

STILL Working and not on hiatus here. Dun worry, you'll probably get something after June (long time I know yes, but I need that time, got lots of stuff annoying me in RL)

[FlameSparkZ]

Hmm...haven't seen that one yet.
Though, I think the title is "konna no de suimasen" meaning "sorry I'm like this" ...but I could be wrong

*walks away while imagining Fuuko chasing after Ichika for the usual reasons*

[Terminator98]

Completed up to chapter 4.
Will wait until I'm around chapter 6 to make sure that I've got LOTS of consistent stuff to show around.

Haven't bothered with the char sheets yet as they're constantly changing.
Main Char is a Trap idea, Brocon idea, and dead lover ideas are still there. Ichika might not be the defense target, or he might be one of the TWO defense targets.

[wavehawk]

Quick question: Can we actually post a fanfic here, or must it be hosted on a different site? Just checking, as I've got ideas for a short IS-related one, but can't commit to hosting it on my website.

Edit: Nevermind, forgot to read the front page. (bang head on wall)

"Orimura Ichika...don't you understand?"

"Haah?"

"Your kindness--that's the most cruel thing a man has ever done to me. To be kind."
