Name: Arthur Shinryuu


Origin: Dai Londinium is the capital flagship of the United Families of Orteuze , an advanced magitechnological civilization that dwells in flying city-states and divided in several squabbling families of Magi that fiercely compete with each other for supremacy and intermarry with each other in attempts to empower their own bloodlines. Those who do not belong to the Families are considered to be second-class citizens, and are only valued as servants.

Backstory: A member of the powerful Shinryuu family and a student of the Vortigern Magician Academy, Arthur is a handsome, if bored-looking young man, usually dressed in his school uniform and carrying a backpack that contains his books, lunchbox and his arcane crafted broadsword. He is two years older than most of his colleagues due to failing two years in a row, and is known as a mediocre and lazy student, as well as a failure of his high-ranking clan. Tired of the nagging and politicking of his parents, who are starting to believe that he is actually faking his ineptitude, Arthur decides to scurry away from Londinium after a quite rough spat, and decides to instead travel and find a place to take it easy away from his family's reach.

Mortal Qualities

Irregular Magician (+6): To the embarassment of his parents, Arthur has flunked two years in a row at the Londinium academy, with lower than subpar grades on every possible subject, and has performed extremely poorly on several competitions within the school, up to the point he has earned the reputation as the weakest duelist in the academy. Of course, if he actually did try a serious effort, he would in fact upstage several of his teachers, but this is too much of a chore...!

Character Flaw: - Lazy. Arthur believes in avoiding responsibility and getting dragged in his familial troubles by being a permanent underachiever, and therefore tries his best to hide his massive potential on any situation. He also avoids getting in deep relationships with most people, and just wants to 'ride the wave' for the rest of his life.

Divine Item: Draconii Fatum - Bloodline's Broadsword of Draconic Destiny


The most ancient heritage of the Shinryuu clan, stolen by Arthur before he scampered away from Dai Londinium. This sword was forged from the heart, soul, teeth, bones and claws of the family's draconic ancestor, a "Divine Dragon" that hails from a time before mankind ever left their caves. The Draconii Fatum is tied with the clan's blood itself, growing stronger as their ancestry becomes more apparent and it is said that eventually it will attune with one of the most apt members of the Shinryuu to turn him into a Divine Dragon himself. But of course, it's not like some failure like Arthur can do that, can he?

What do you want out of the game?: Having fun. Also it not dying within a month or week.

Name: Arthur Shinryuu
No one bothered Arthur. He had no responsibilities, he could do what he liked. No pressure or challenges. "You're so great!" His classmates and teachers would admit. His own family long having since given him his due. But this wasn't quite right. And then he remembered the mirror. An underclass student bumped into him. "Arthur!" She hissed. "We have to go. Please we're sorry for trying to trap you in here. It was a prank. The denizens of the mirror are going to realize we don't belong here and Eat US!"
The clique shuffled behind her. They didn't have half the ability Arthur had and couldn't break out. But that would be.. effort. One of the mirror students grabbed one of the clique and bit off her arm. The rest shrank away from her as she screamed, the passing mirror folk not even pausing to stop. "Please." another of the clique begged. "We'll do anything."
Arthur was quite safe. His own wards haphazardly done but more than powerful enough to stay here forever. He was also powerful enough to go. It would be easier if he left by himself though. Choices choices.

Will you leave the clique to their fate or take them with you? Arthur is powerful enough and smart enough to do whatever he chooses. It would serve them right if he left them, but did they deserve to be eaten?


Ahh, that's a real lovely decision, Arthur thought to himself, crossing his arms in contemplation. While he honestly didn't gave much notice for the kind of pranks that the other students would pull on him, the possibility of them finding out about him being able to ward himself against spells that these imbeciles couldn't would bring a lot of grief. Yet, there's also the consideration that staying in that World forever, while tempting, would still have a possibility of him being eaten alive. "What a bother, what a bother..." He mutters to himself as a small magic circle appears on his hand. "Yeah, I guess I'll have to do a memory wiper on you guys. Finding the excuse on how she lost her arm isn't my problem though."

With a quick wave of the young magus' arm, eight floating magic circles suddenly materialize around his head, a pattern of intricate runes etched on their hexagrams as they beautifully start to spin. "Maximize Spell. Fifth Tier Magic: Eightfold Light Seeker." He says before the circles burst with light, several small beams of white light piercing the air as they home in the mirror students, piercing their hearts immediately before switching their trajectories in midair and hitting their target's heads, exploding them in a burst of pure energy. "All right then, I guess it's time I get you guys out of here, huh?" Arthur shrugs as he turns to the dumbfounded clique, utterly annoyed by all of this. "Seriously, what a bother..."
