A brand new group is on the making, The Apostles, a Pillar-like group led by none other than our brand new headmaster, Gregoire Girard. A student body that would lead students and enforce the law on this little school of ours. Little is still known about this student body, but who knows? It might just be what the school needs.

A lunch box is seen last Friday, around 12:37:08pm with an encouraging note packed inside. This appalling display that utterly lacked manliness has left many students stunned and outrage, as some decided, after a long while, to speak out against it.
Full Story Here.

Suggestion:As the title states, I believe we should be able to have characters with cat ears. No longer shall we have racism towards cat people! XDStaff say it wouldn't be fair to add cat ears since they could be used in battle. Example:"She heard the almost impossible to hear sound becuz she haz neko earz." Reasons:I don't feel they could actually help in battles, if ANYTHING, it acts as a disadvantage. Since in my fight with Hexell Here I have to say, I made myself lose since Etsuko's ears touched the fire. It can be a weakness, which is respected if a player remains true to their characters strengths and faults. But really, it makes no sense to just "hear better" since cat people have human ears too. It's like an extra useless limb. Just for show. But apparently to have cat ears, it has to be an accessory or a qi. Which I find no point in spending $1000 to add an ability to an item stating:When used, so-and-so has real cat ears! I don't see a point in making it a qi either since there's again, no possible way it could help you in a real fight. You can't punch people with your ears. Example:It's pretty self explanatory, we have cat ears. If anyone decides to use them as an ability they have to make a qi for it or be subject to penalty. |

Actual reasoning being:
552 started out as a normal type of real world. It's been slowly descending into madness ever since then, but we aren't at the level of humans with cat ears just yet.

Oh, I didn't know she had cat ears. Well, as Zoe had said, you can't have em cuz 552 is set on a somewhat real world. But you can however, surgically implant these cat ears on your person. We have one character, namely Teufel, who had welded antlers on top of his head permanently. So if you want, you could say that she stitched those cat ears on her.

Your character cannot have physical abnormalities to this extent without some sort of explanation, be it surgical implant or alteration via Qi.

To Zoe:I beg to differ. As this world is rarely on a REAL scale. Considering we have people shooting fire out of there hands, others jumping off 2-3 story buildings and being fine, monsters involved with fear, which, of course is just fear gas, but that's besides the point. This world, from much research I have done, is nowhere nearr normal. I heard 259 was even crazier too. But in a last resort, I have to bring up Zoe's lightning attacks and such. Even my OWN ability's that have been staff approved make no sense. So if staff here are going for a "realistic" world, then I'm afraid to say cat ears are the least of your worries.

Any and all things that break the limits of reality are the result of high stats, Qi, or genetic experimentation (I.E. FEAR). All people, without these things, are average. Breathing fire? Qi or ability item. Lightning? Qi or ability item. Rakeem is a character who emits a blue aura from his body - Qi and ability items.
Those are the only ways you break the boundaries of reality. So if you want to have cat ears, make them an aesthetic factor of Qi, or some sort of item that your character has.

Well by real world mechanics they simply mean we are human. Super human at best or meta humans if you wanna go there. I think saying 'normal' is causing far too deep of thought. It's normal in the sense of the world that there aren't the fantasy elements of people being angel's, demons, neko's, half demon half human, elves. Metaphorically sure one could think of themselves as such. But aren't physically. The mechanic's as far as 'powers' or 'qis' are just that 'qi's'. They are special gifts in which meta human's would possess. This boils done to introducing races which on a fantasy board or even maybe heavy sci fi it could be possible.. Regarding 259 that's a different story but alas doesn't really effect here. All they're saying is they could be surgically placed or have a qi that sprouts them for a time being for whatever the reasoning may be. It's just that race speaking we're simply human or rather super human but in the end human. |

You could, in theory, do something along the lines of "this character's latent Qi potential has given them cat ears once they discovered the power within themselves" or something.
My character, Valo, has an item known as Empowered Markings, that grant him an ability of buffing his STR and DEX. Even when the ability isn't in use, the markings are always on his body. It could be done similarly for something like cat ears or whatever else someone wants in order to look unique. We allow a ton of freedom when it comes to aesthetic appeal, especially in regards to Qi and abilities. Some people transform into another appearance or even take on the form of a creature when activating their abilities.
So stating something like Qi being the reason for their cat ears isn't a big deal. No reason to say they're a straight up neko though, unless you want them to have that Qi power since birth (in which case start a character with 20 INT and get crackin' on the unlock and all).
