so.... lets see how well that goes for you hmmm? remember everything is +12 here from your will.
huh.... just about the perfect outcome! lucky!
EDIT: With this 3 of them back right the heck off, and 1 of them attacks you fairly early on.... and does so with a weapon. God Damn.... he is getting his ass canned from beacon.
Further edit: almost forgot, the first roll crit gave you an extra +5 to the next rolls and a -10 to the final roll (for the how they retaliate.)

[X] Semblance AND verbal lashing!

sorry vote was closed yesterday. Verbal lashing alone won plus I did the rolls.
In any case, I am having a bunch of trouble with finding the proper words for the verbal lashing atm so I am taking a break and focusing on Yang and Ruby's character sheets for now.

OK Yang's character sheet is done and up! ( you still don't know her skills, abilities or semblance IC so thats not in there.) And Ruby's character sheet is half complete and I have posted that as well. (she will be same as Yang with skills and stuff, though you will know her semblance.)
Intro part 5: In which Sky Lark gets the verbal beatdown of his life before getting his butt handed to him

EXTREMELY Angered by the sheer audacity these pathetic weaklings display before one of your greatness, you take a short moment to decide how best to put them in their places.
Laughing evilly for a moment to give yourself a moment to think of the words you will use to utterly crush their spirits you then begin your tirade.
"Superior species? You? *chuckles* I am a DRAGON you pathetic monkey! We are the most powerful and greatest species on the face of this world! You are merely an ape without a tail that learned to speak!" You laugh loudly going right up into the grey haired fools face. "It is you who is not worthy of my presence! pathetic weaklings like yourself that are too cowardly to come up to me alone, and far too frightened by the very idea of conversing with a girl under normal circumstances you need to rely on your pathetic racism to even approach them! Well I have news for you, you limp Di**ed idiot! Your inability to converse with a woman normally, and reliance on calling in your whole group to try and get the FAR superior male to back off shows how tiny your pe**er is! Do you lack a pair or something?
"You!..." He tries to respond
"Oh I am sorry..." You state interrupting him with a false sense of apology on your face. "I didn't mean to bring up your poor history. I mean, I know it hurts that your own mother cut it off when you were a child after seeing how pathetic you were going to become and then killed herself out of the shame of having borne such a worthless joke of a person! However you must accept the fact that she is gone along with what makes you a male and has been for a long time now. These pathetic attempts to display dominance will never bring back your masculinity! You needing backup and resorting to words you can hear from any uneducated idiot off the streets merely proves she was right to do so! It's a darn good thing your father left right after you were born! He must have seen what you would become from the start. Your mother was just too blinded by her mothering instincts to see what a truly pathetic runt you were until they wore off a bit! Not completely of course or she would have ended you as well so as to spare the world from your rampant ignorant comments and actions."
"I!....." He again tried to respond face beginning to turn very red as the other guys are backing off one by one but he is not noticing.
"You what? Did me reminding you of truth finally get you to realize you need to go cry in the corner like the tears in your eyes are showing?" You laugh pointing at his face while gesturing all throughout the room to get people to look at the fool. "I mean look at this fool! He can't even handle a few harsh truths spoken to his face! Well I guess I can understand, going through your life without a father figure or even a proper parent has left you without a source of discipline. Don't worry, I can fulfill that role for you! First lesson! Don't interrupt your father when he is talking to two gorgeous woman! Or anyone for that matter! Your unimportant comments and the sheer garbage that spews out of your mouth endlessly is insulting to them! In fact! don't bother talking to anyone as anyone with a modicum of intelligence would laugh in your face at how pathetic and worthless you truly are with all your racist BS! Now, go to your corner to cry and leave 'daddy' to his business!" You state immediately turning away from the idiot and walking back over to Yang and Ruby as you take in the entire room with a quick glance noting in pure satisfaction that they all have their mouths wide open in shock at what you said or are giving their own smug grins of satisfaction. Even Yang and Ruby look shocked and impressed.
Sadly however 'twas not to be, the idiot decides to immediately pull out an iron bar that unfolds into a great axe and charges you with it knocking you forward and forcing you into a quick roll and turnaround while jumping back onto your feet.
"Oh? You want more discipline? Thats fine, 'daddy' can give you one hell of a spanking before I send you over to your corner to cry in without dinner." You say holding up a hand and giving a 'come at me' gesture not even bothering to draw a weapon.
With a scream of rage the fool charges you head on and not even that fast. Once he was in optimal range you unleash a full 4 second burst of your Dragon fire. His aura by the time the smoke clears is clearly under heavy strain and he is exhausted with that alone swiftly collapsing to the floor with everyone once again shocked with how swiftly you dealt with the idiot.
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!" You hear Glynda Goodwitch scream out as she opens the doors to the ballroom obviously giving once last check on the future students for the night only to find this happening.
"Ah, my apologies Ms Goodwitch, I was merely showing the racist piece of garbage who dared to attack me from behind his place in the world. I know subjecting him to a full 4 seconds of my Inner fire may have a been a bit cruel, but he was asking for it." You offer to her bowing your head in apology as she strode over to you.
realizing you might be in trouble both Yang and Ruby quickly begin to try and speak up in your defense but just end up talking over each other a bit.
Upon hearing and seeing exactly who was the cause of this she immediately facepalms giving out a groan. "Of course you were behind this Mr. Vanta. *sigh* Well given no one seems to want to speak in this fools defense and you obviously have a pair of ardent defenders I will leave you here for now while I take young Lark over to the infirmary before reviewing the cameras to see if this is true. If it is then he will be immediately dismissed from Beacon for attacking a fellow student with the intent to cause severe harm."
"Understood Ms Goodwitch, and I apologize on behalf of the idiot. Goodnight!" You say waving goodbye as Glynda walks away levitating the poor unconscious fools body with her semblance.
After turning back to Yang and Ruby you apologize with a short bow. "I am sorry about all that, idiotic racists like him who are incapable of forming their own opinions on subjects and then are audacious enough to not only forcibly share their contagious stupidity with others around them but are dumb enough to state it in my face truly get on my nerves."
"Ah, its ok we understand." "Ya! bullies like him give good people a bad name!" They state unoffended by your tirade.
"Good to know, I guess we should head to bed then. Goodnight Yang, Ruby!"
"Goodnight Lux!" "Ya, night dude."
You head back over to your sleeping bag as they get into their for the night but as you do so you realize with how early you normally wake up for training you will have a bit of time before initiation the next morning. How should you spend it?
What do you do in the next morning before initiation?
[] Training {actually you should avoid spending energy before the initiation, you might need it in there.}
[] Talking to the cat girl
[] Try andtorment TALK! to the Schnee
[] Talk to the orange haired girl and her friend
[] Talk to the red haired lady in the armor you see leaving to eat for breakfast
[] Talk to Juane

Intro part 6: Meeting Pyrrha
- Location

You head back over to your sleeping bag as they get into their for the night but as you do so you realize with how early you normally wake up for training you will have a bit of time before initiation the next morning.
Waking up finally after a good nights sleep despite the unfamiliar location being surrounded by strangers 'as if such a thing could bother me' Lux thought as he got out of bed slowly stretching his limbs and looking at his surroundings before heading to the change room to get dressed and shower. 'Now what to do to while I wait for the initiation to begin?'
The first thing Lux sees as he exists the changing room is this one annoyingly loud orange haired girl going on and on at her black and pink haired girlfriend.... boyfriend? just friend? Your not sure, but what is certain is that they are very stoic handling their friends hyperactivity with minimalist answers and continuing to get ready for the day even as they help their friend get ready too. You decide not to butt in there as they look like they have a fairly solid routine going on.
Then you see the Schnee who is just getting out of bed to get to the changing room to get dressed for the day. 'Ha, lazy spoiled rich girls at their finest. I am already dressed and was up for almost 2 hours now.' Lux thinks as he continues to watch how long the Schnee takes to merely get out of bed. Then she sees Lux and giving him a glare, quickly grabs her clothes and rushes to the changing room to get dressed. Turning away from her after she leaves you realize you really don't care how she feels and decide to move on from her for the day.
Then you see the Cat-girl once again as she gets up stretching out her back much like a cat would as she got up for the day. You think about chatting her up for a bit, but ultimately decide against it. She seemed rather shy and insular after all, likely not the most fun person to talk to for now.
Continuing on looking around the room for something to do you spy Juane still sleeping in his disgusting pajamas... 'Yep, nope! not even going to go near him while he is wearing those!' Lux thinks before realizing there was nothing else interesting to do in the ballroom. 'Screw it! I'll just go train for a bit then! I hoped to conserve energy for the initiation but I am not going to waste time fiddling my thumbs this whole time! I will just train my aura magic, that way I can focus on dustcasting for the initiation.'
Finally arriving at the training rooms after a bit of looking, you spot one of them in use. It was being used by that red haired girl you saw in the ballroom but didn't pay much attention too... hmmm looking at her again.... do you now her? she does look familiar, especially with her fighting style. Though if you did know her you would remember her, your memory is without flaw after all. So maybe you know of her? Wait thats it! She is that one tournament winner from Mystral! P-something or other. You did not watch her fights too often because she was far more skilled than her opponents were, but you did learn a couple things from watching her. Perhaps you should go and greet her instead? Yes, that seems like a good idea.
Walking over to the training room with pure confidence that you always hold, you open the door and walk in as you arrive, as it seems she is just finishing up. Looking up and surprised as you walk in, P-something initiates the conversation. "Oh hello, did you need something?" Obviously still a bit off balance from your entrance.
"Yes actually, you see, here I was thinking I was the first to wake up in the ballroom only to find one of my fellow future classmates has an even stricter schedule than I do." You begin to speak, holding up your hand to shake at the end. "The name is Lux, Lux Vanta and it is good to meet someone else who takes their training seriously around here. I mean everyone else was just waking up and going through their routines as I left when I was already up a while ago and finished my own. Normally I would have trained first of course, but I decided to save my energy for initiation today. Better to be at your best and all that."
"Ah yes, I would have done the same, but I was feeling a bit nervous and decided to calm myself going through my routines," P-something smiled shaking your hand. "My name is Pyrrha Nikos, though I am sure you already knew that." She finishes with a slight grimace that went away as quickly as it came.
"Hmmm? no, I knew it was P-something, but I only ever watched one of your matches to learn what I could from you, during one of my more visual training sessions. Our styles are very incompatible with your reliance on your semblance, at least I am fairly certain its your semblance, to nudge your opponents blows and your own ever so slightly to ensure near misses and hits. I did learn a bit on how to better move my body for dodging mind you, but not much else." You reply denying her statement with a shrug. "Besides, I don't really care about fame earned in an arena with rules and the like. No offense, but that kind fighting is next to worthless in our line of work. So while I am sure you will be beating many opponents in combat class, including me every now and again I am sure, I doubt you will be able to kill the Grimm as effectively as I do already."
"Oh? you know my semblance just from watching a single match?" She states raising a single eyebrow while smiling just slightly more joyfully than before. " And what makes you so sure that you would be able to beat me at all? Or kill more Grimm than me for that matter. By the way, do you mind if we walk and talk I need to get changed and showered."
"Of course." You state opening the door again and holding it for her as you both exited the training room heading for the changing rooms nearby. "And no I do not know your semblance just how you use it and that it seems to only really effect weapons in some way. Which is why I know I would pose more of a challenge to you than most given my ability with my blade is honestly the least threatening thing in my arsenal. I mean, I am one of the few dustcasters and aura mage in the world even if I am just a beginner still. Plus my natural draconic ability to breathe fire, and finally my semblance is pretty scary to deal with. As for the Grimm, well as one of the few survivors of Mountain Glen, and having had to fight my way out of there, plus basically fighting against them or training for most of my time since, I am fairly sure I have more experience at combating Grimm than you do as a primarily human combatant Pyrrha."
"Wait, you're a survivor of Mountain Glenn!" Pyrrha exclaimed a look of complete shock on her face as she heard this. "And a dustcaster, aura mage at that... I will admit that is beyond impressive. Though I am surprised someone as young as you was able to survive the fall of Mountain Glenn. Even in Mystral that tragedy was decently well known, and you must have been 10 at the most when it happened."
"Yes, but thanks to my aura already being unlocked before then, using my semblance instinctively then plus my wings, I was barely able to escape. Even then I would have died if not for finding the corpse of a Hunter who had fallen to them, and taking his weapon. I still use it to this day, you could say that even when he had fallen, that huntsman was still able to at least save my life thanks to his sacrifice. The fall of Mountain Glenn is why I became a hunstsman, to ensure that such a thing never happens again."
(Motivation revealed! As a survivor of Mountain Glenn Lux is determined to prevent anything like it from ever happening again. To this end, he is more likely to risk his own life in situations where innocent lives or his friends lives are at stake. Cannot willingly run away when this happens no matter what.)
"I see.." Pyrrha states with a sad smile. "At least you survived, and it has given you the motivation to prevent others from suffering the way you have. In any case, I need to shower now and get ready for initiation. You should get going too, there is not much time left. I will see you there!"
"Agreed, hopefully we can talk further later." You smile lightly before walking off to the locker rooms where your equipment is kept as Pyrrha closed the door of the room and went to shower.
Hmm, it is still a bit early. You could go ahead your classmates and talk to Ozpin and Glynda for a bit. Or you could wait in the locker room after you were ready and talk to the students as they arrived, see what happens and all that. Or finally you could grab a bit of extra dust from your room to be extra prepared for initiation.
[] Talk to Ozpin and Glynda (current relations with them revealed, possible extra knowledge on what is in the forest atm.)
[] Wait in locker room to talk to other students and just observe everyone. (will be a 2nd vote for who you decide to talk to)
[] Get extra dust and other things to be better prepared for initiation. (+10 to all rolls for the initiation, will have enough dust to really see some fireworks)
AN: I am posting this while I bloody while can. Sorry everyone fore the delay I have been forced to rewrite half the goddamn update 4 times now (and the whole thing once much earlier when I was writing while pissed off) But the 4 times I have had to rewrite it in the last 24 hours is because my internet and power keep conking out on me leaving me only brief windows of time to write and save my progress! I will finish this update once everything has calmed down a bit. And sorry once again, only providing this because I don't want you guys waiting anymore.
Waking up finally after a good nights sleep despite the unfamiliar location being surrounded by strangers 'as if such a thing could bother me' Lux thought as he got out of bed slowly stretching his limbs and looking at his surroundings before heading to the change room to get dressed and shower.

"I see.." Pyrrha states with a sad smile. "At least you survived, and it has given you the motivation to prevent others from suffering the way you have. In any case, I need to shower now and get ready for initiation. You should get going too, there is not much time left. I will see you there!"

Or finally you could grab a bit of extra dust from your room to be extra prepared for initiation.
[] Talk to Ozpin and Glynda (current relations with them revealed, possible extra knowledge on what is in the forest atm.)
[] Wait in locker room to talk to other students and just observe everyone. (will be a 2nd vote for who you decide to talk to)
[] Get extra dust and other things to be better prepared for initiation. (+10 to all rolls for the initiation, will have enough dust to really see some fireworks)
AN: I am posting this while I bloody while can. Sorry everyone fore the delay I have been forced to rewrite half the goddamn update 4 times now (and the whole thing once much earlier when I was writing while pissed off) But the 4 times I have had to rewrite it in the last 24 hours is because my internet and power keep conking out on me leaving me only brief windows of time to write and save my progress! I will finish this update once everything has calmed down a bit. And sorry once again, only providing this because I don't want you guys waiting anymore.

looks pretty good, my only question is if Lux would actually know who Pyrrha is considering him has lived as a hermit for most his life

vaguely, mostly from the few months he spent with Ozpin after Amber was captured. He had access to TV then and spent a bit watching some of the shows he liked (mostly fights) and the like to see if he could learn anything from them to add to his own style. Pyrrha was one of the few who he did learn from, though not much.
Also internet is back up properly! should have the update fixed tonight. Failing that tomorrow morning first thing.

IT IS FINALLY DONE! sorry everyone, but mom knocked a darn perfume bottle we use to freshen up the bathroom into the toilet, so have been a bit busy dealing with that today. a bit later than I said, but voting may now commence and the chapter is complete.
