1. It's something we'll consider. Although it isn't necessarily word count as much as what is actually is in it, if that makes any sense. You can type a long essay and have no substance to it. Although generally appearance should be 1-2 paragraphs and personality should be at least 2 paragraphs. History should just be as detailed as possible. I could look at all the profiles and come up with an average, but in general you should strive to make it as colorful as possible.
2, 4, 5. Some of the stuff you bring up can be generalized, so I'm addressing them all here. This site is very new and just came into existence. As such, stuff is still being organized. 2 is something that I'm just going to take care of tonight. 4 and 5 may or may not happen. It depends on what we decide is best for organizational purposes.
3. No one has been confused by it and you don't have to do it in code. You can always just switch to preview mode and type in things in their respective column. It's more simple than you're making it out to be.
7. Passives are just anything that aren't involved in combat.
8. Magic AMP isn't as strong as you think. It only affects magical items, which aren't even the most important things in combat anyway. It doesn't effect Requip or Holder magic, in case you were wondering. Only items in your inventory.
Everything else I see you have a bunch of concerns over the combat, so I'm going to alleviate all of your worries here. First of all, keep in mind that changes can happen at any time if deemed necessary. Likewise, more spells will be added as time goes on. We haven't had one official battle IC yet, so just making changes right now could break something that was already fine. Also in general you're overcomplicating things in your head. This site runs on a free flowing combat system based on goodwill. If someone tries to spam things then it will be dealt with.
I appreciate your concerns, but this site is still under construction, and we are aware of most of the concerns you brought up. I do agree that the limited and banned magic needs to be made clearer, and wording in general needs to be edited. Some organization needs to be done too. But the combat system is a free flowing system that can change at any time. It's undoubtedly going to be bumpy at first, but things will sort itself out.

"Why have you been such a pain in the ass?"
“A lot, believe it or not. Well, “making fun of” isn’t quite accurate. It apparently gives people the creeps. You don’t seem to be bothered by it though.”
It was indeed an abnormality. Although something became very apparent the more Shime interacted with this guy: he had a very strange way of looking at things. She raised an eyebrow at his description of what he was doing.
“If your reputation is warranted, then I can buy your efficiency. But yelling at random strangers and calling them cowards isn’t the same as politely asking them to spar with you. It’s intimidating enough when the homeless yell expletives for no reason, let alone someone with half a skull on their face. How long you haven’t done anything doesn’t matter either if you cause more damage. It’s more than just paying for the actual damage, which you would know if you knew the slightest thing about social economics.”
God, this guy sure was uppity. Shime didn’t like being questioned in general, especially by someone who thought they were too good for the rules to apply to them. She gave him a wide grin that seemed a little too friendly.
“Well, I wouldn’t be a captain if I wasn’t efficient. As for why I’m wandering around the city, I live here, and I prefer wearing my uniform. It’s my favorite attire. I just happened to come across you. Believe or not you’re the only Sabretooth member I’ve talked to. Your guilds existence annoys me, but you guys don’t usually raise any kind of ruckus either. It’s another matter when an entitled mage starts behaving like he owns the city.”
Shime looked over at the couple that Shizu pointed at briefly. They were completely normal, which invalidated his point already. But that didn’t matter anyway. Shime turned, tilting her head and staring at him like she was studying a weird animal.
“Who said anything about arresting you? You haven’t done anything worthy of that. Yet. I am simply warning you before you actually do something to get yourself arrested. You’re on thin ice and could easily take things too far.”
This was the start of the game she had in mind. As he pointed out, she had absolutely nothing on him. Although that could change very quickly. He already seemed to be a little agitated: he was staring up at the sky and avoiding eye contact. She chuckled, folding her hands behind her back and leaning back on her heels slightly.
“We’re the protectors of peace who have to lay down the law. I’m sure it looks arrogant from your perspective, but we only do as we’re dictated. Unlike your trash guild that thinks they’re a special snowflake because of a few notable mages. But if Sabretooth disappeared from the face of the world, it wouldn’t make any difference. The world would keep going as it is. The Rune Knights on the other hand are the pillar that holds our magical system together.”
Shime closed her eyes, giving Shizu a friendly grin. Despite the insult she just threw at his guild, she was acting like she was having a casual conversation with the Sabretooth mage. But beneath the surface there was clear disdain for the other magic user.

"Why have you been such a pain in the ass?"
Shime closed her eyes, giving Shinzu a seemingly friendly smile. "Surely you jest. Height has nothing to do with the qualifications of becoming a rune knight. You're the first person to joke about that though. Most people are distracted by my eyes to care about my height."
Well that and the fact that she usually only interacted with people on a job. Which meant that she was probably pointing a gun at them. Shime opened her eyes as Shinzu approached her. Her smile turned into an outright grin. Although it looked like the expression plastered on a mask. Clearly she wasn't showing how she was really feeling.
"That's funny, I was about to ask you the same thing. I know Sabretooth is classified as independent, but I figured they at least performed missions like any other guild. Yet here you are constantly yelling at people on good days and damaging property when you manage to get into a fight. I don't see where you get the time to actually do something for your guild."
Shime chuckled, her red eyes boring into Shinzu’s. "In a way, yes. It's a well known fact that Crocus is the seat of our power. No one is brazen enough to try anything major here. The most that happens are petty crimes that the lower level knights can handle. Our branch divisions that look after smaller towns have to deal with the most trouble. So the low ranking rune knights get to patrol the safer posts until they can handle more dangerous zones. It's grunt work that I haven't done in a long time."
Shime had intended on just giving the guy a warning. But she really did not like the attitude he was giving her. While it wasn't for the same reasons other people had looked down on her, he was disrespecting her at just about every turn. That being said, she couldn't just arrest him for no reason. She'd have to get creative if she wanted to teach him a lesson.
"Actually, you've broken both written and unwritten rules. Public harassment, property damage, and assault among other things. As for the unwritten rule, that would be your guilds existence. Sabretooth was an official guild, once upon a time. But your master decided that he didn’t want to abide by the rules. They think they’re too important to follow the law like the other guilds.”
Shime stepped closer, so that she was standing a foot away from Shinzu. Her red eyes bore into his own. Her voice suddenly lost all pretense of warmth. She icily addressed the Sabretooth wizard.
“The very fact that you’re in Sabretooth spits in our faces. We have laws for a reason, to keep the world a safe place. The way I see it, if one guild feels like they’re above the law, then other guilds will think that it’s okay to just disregard the rules. Your guild’s status is the epitome of arrogance.”
Shime was going to drive this person into the ground. Not only was he insulting her at every turn, but he was walking around the streets like he owned the city. Not to mention, he carried a brand of magic that Shime utterly despised. Like any of the hard working upper ranks, Shime had done research on magic and notable mages. Shinzu had a magic that threatened her and Dethener. That’s why she was going to drill it into his head today: you couldn't just treat the law as a joke.

"Why have you been such a pain in the ass?"
Crocus, the heart of Fiore. The huge capital city served as a shining beacon to the magical country, and was the heart and soul of the nation. It was also where the Rune Knight’s main headquarters were located. As such, it was the seat of power that governed all the magical guilds in the land.
Shime was patrolling the streets, her metal boots clinking against the paved stone roads of the capital. She had just come back from an assignment the day prior, so she didn’t have too much to do at the moment. They wouldn’t give her another mission so soon. Although she was expecting to get one tomorrow.
People moved out of her way if she got too close to them. Despite her small stature, she supposed she looked a little intimidating. Her pale skin, red eyes, and military outfit made her stand out quite a bit. Not to mention a lot of people knew her by her moniker around here. Not many people wanted to get on the bad side of the Crimson Arsenal.
As she walked past the edge of a park, she heard a voice yell out. She turned her head to see a blue haired individual down the way. Like her he stood out. The strange half mask growing out of him was a dead give away.
“Hey, isn’t that the Sabretooth mage who’s been causing problems lately?”
There had been reports of a mage just strolling about Crocus challenging people to spars. At first it wasn’t given much thought. Fights occasionally happened and as long as they didn’t go out of hand, there wasn’t a need to step in. But as time went on, it became clear that fighting was this guy’s main goal. He was spending more time challenging people than he was going on missions. And that was an issue. Everyone had their own roles to play. And he was a nuisance by partaking in something that was disturbing the peace.
Making up her mind, Shime walked towards the blue-haired individual with purpose. She waited until she was within 10 feet of him. Then she called out to him.
“Don’t you have anything better to do than start fights, Ashtooth?”

SHIME  ![]() OVERVIEW NAME: Shime ALIAS: Crimson Arms Master GENDER: Female AGE:23 SPECIES:Demon/Human hybrid SEXUALITY: Homosexual GUILD: Rune Knight GUILD MARK: N/A CLASS: B APPEARANCE HEIGHT: 5’0 WEIGHT: 100 lbs EYE COLOR: Red HAIR COLOR: Black SKIN COLOR: White BUILD: Lithe ABNORMALITIES: A red horn growing from her head. FACE CLAIM NAME: Oda Nobunaga FACE CLAIM SERIES: Fate Series  Shime is a lithe woman of short stature, only standing at 5 feet. She has long, straight black hair which flows behind her. She has red eyes, which played a part in the nickname of "crimson arms master.". Her skin has a very pale complexity to it, despite the time she spends outside training. She usually wears her Rune Knight uniform, as she takes her work very seriously. She has a katana she keeps strapped to her hips. It’s very rare for one to see her in casual clothing, although there have been instances off duty when she has. She always has her hat on person, even if she isn't wearing it. This is to hide the horn growing out of her head, a result of her demonic heratige. PERSONALITY | POSITIVE TRAITS | NEGATIVE TRAITS | | Ambitious | Pragmatic

To people who meet her in passing, she seems like just an energetic person. She’s almost always making some kind of motion, even if it's unnecessary. A very outgoing individual who cracks the occasional joke. She’s able to enter most conversations seamlessly. To those passersby, this surface is all they see. However Shime is intense would be an understatement. She puts her all into everything she does. Her training, missions, and recruitment into the army. She’s passionate in her beliefs and pushes herself to do her best. She puts those assigned to her unit to that same standard. To this date, no one has been able to meet that standard, resulting in her not having a squad to command. Those who were previously in her squad described the training as “trying to survive against a demon.” She also enjoys fighting to an extreme, and has an itchy trigger finger. She obsesses with her craft, constantly practicing and fine tuning her magical weapons. Her guns are how she deals with most problems that involve disorderly conduct. While they haven’t been used in lethal capacity against low-level offenders, it’s still off putting to some people. HISTORY   Shime was left on the doorstep of the Oak Town orphanage. There was a note that only said “Shime” in the basket next to her, which roughly translated to “Demon eyes”. Since she looked nearly entirely human, they presumed that’s why she was abandoned. So the nuns took her in. Her time there was spent in isolation. The other children were scared of her, and the adults were weary of her. The horn on her head gave her the moniker of demon. Despite her desire to have friends and family, all her efforts to connect with others failed. She grew up in that orphanage alone, surrounded by other children who would play together. One day when she was 9, a couple appeared looking to adopt a girl. The staff did their best to influence them to take Shime. Like so many couples before them, they took one look at her, and fear crossed their faces. White-hot rage filled Shime. She knew what was going to happen. “It’s not fair! What did I do to deserve this?! I don’t want to be alone, I DON’T WANT TO BE ALONE!!!”There was a flash of red light, and the couple slammed into the far wall, the impact creating indents. As they crumpled to the floor, the nuns looked at Shime in horror. She was panting heavily, gritting her teeth and staring at them all with rage. Two guns floated in the air on either side of her. Her magic had manifested. One of the kids came in and saw the bodies of the couple on the floor, and screamed out in horror. That snapped everyone out of the stand off. The guns disappeared, and Shime looked behind her at the younger boy. Her body trembling, she slowly turned back over at the couple on the ground. One of the nun’s was kneeling over them. She looked up at the other one, shaking her head with a tear running down her face. “They’re dead…” The other Nun’s widened in horror, then whirled to face Shime, shouting at her in fury. ”YOU INHUMAN MONSTER!!!" Shime covered her ears and ran out the door before they could react. She ran, ran, and ran. What scared her most wasn’t the dagger the nun had painfully shoved into her just now. Or the looks of horror and terror on their faces. No, it was there was a part of her that had enjoyed that. Right after her attack had hit, she felt elated. They must be right: what else but a monster would feel any level of enjoyment? Shibe wandered the wilderness aimlessly. Starved and dehydrated, she collapsed and blacked out. When she awakened, she was in a cell. All around her were other children. She was in the Skeleton Hand guild, who got their hands on children to sell, or use for their own gain if they had magic potential. Immediately Shime was filled with rage, and summoned her guns and blew open the cell. Guards showed up, attracted by the noise. They were low level and she dispatched them quickly. Suddenly there was an explosion from above that rocked the whole building. Shime rushed upstairs, and saw a battle unfolding. Dethener he Rune Knight was engaging Skeleton Hand. They weren’t a match for his magic. Two dark mages tried to sneak up behind him. Dethener whirled around to engage them, only to watch as red beams of light took them both out. He looked over at Shime for an instant before engaging the guild again. The battle didn’t last much longer after that. Dethener could tell what she was at a glance. He went over to her and explained everything to her. Throughout the interaction, Shime wasn’t scared of the imposing figure. If anything, she was looking at him with awe. His power, his strength fascinated her. And he was like her! She wasn’t alone. Dethener saw the promise in her magic, and took her back with him and the other children. Soon after this, Dethener adopted her. Dethener took her under his wing, teaching her how to control her powers and magic. When she was 20, she joined the Rune Knights. In just one year, she became the youngest captain in the organization. She got on the fast track towards becoming a Knight Commander. Shime had turned her life around drastically, all thanks to a “monster” that many people feared. She swore that she would make him proud of her INVENTORY ITEM NAME: Royal Musket RANK: B (Requip) DESCRIPTION: The Royal Muskets are the signature weapons of Shime’s requip magic. While the length and design of the muskets vary depending on the type of spell she fires from, the one design element that is consistent across all of them is the golden gear. By having it turn, Shime can select the firing mode on her muskets. ITEM NAME: Masume RANK: D DESCRIPTION: A Katana that Shime uses for cerimonial purposes and close range combat. MAGIC NAME: Crimson Armory TYPE: Re-equip. RANK: B DESCRIPTION: Shime can access a pocket dimension where she stores special guns, the majority of which are magical.

DRAWBACKS: Shime has put everything into her guns.While she hasn’t completely negated physical training, she mostly focused on her agility. As such, if someone with her level of offensive magic gets in close, she gets put at a disadvantage. She also has trouble dealing with speed if she doesn’t use particular counter measures. Being half demon also makes her magic 20% less effective against Devil Slayers SPECIALIZATION: No Defensive/Support Spells.[AoE Ranged] SPELLS:Place all spells related to your magic here. Characters get four free spells equal to their class at creation.
