In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

APPEARANCE | PICTURE Synthest is the average active male, being slightly under six feet in height and just over 130-140 pounds in weight. He's rather scrawny for a fighting type and tends to associate his fighting with speed rather than strength. Despite, he uses his weapon Virtegon with surprising force. Being active since he was a child, he is rather toned and very limber, so small feats of acrobatics or strength aren't uncommon with him. He has medium-long brunette hair that tends to go wherever the wind takes it, which makes him look paler than he actually is. Under the windblown hair, his eyes seem to glow with energy. They go from a blue-gray to a luminescent ocean blue. He has no idea why they change nor how to control it- just like any other person, the slight color differentiation just happens. His face is rather slim, fitting for his small frame, and his nose is a little too long for his liking.
Syn enjoys cool colors and fluff- specifically fluff on his jackets! He wears all kinds of undershirts, from black to blue to whatever he feels like, but his denim jacket with fur stands out. Fur around the cuffs, the hood, the waist- he digs it pretty hardcore. Other than that, he wears the average apparel for a person in their late teens to early twenties. Jeans, sometimes ripped up from combat or just made that way, and sneakers.
It's only when his weapon is sheathed that he looks even slightly abnormal- his longsword, Virtegon, sheathes itself by transmuting into armor. A full arm set- pauldron, armguard, and gauntlet- is its general shape, all of it being a matte black with silver trim. It is generally extravagant and often looks out of place compared to the rest of his outfit. It's also great for beating someone senseless.
PERSONALITY | Over the years, Synthest has experienced worlds of trouble and has gone through many changes. In the beginning, he was lost and friendless, thrown into new worlds after a traumatic battle between good and evil. He was indecisive and confused, not to mention a little insecure. Carrying the parasite he called Fever, he felt as though humans would frown upon him if they knew the truth. This caused him to hole himself away from the rest of the world, creating a rather somber teen.
Over time, he began to open up, and as he did found himself imprisoned within the Dark XII's schemes. Feeling jaded, he became rather bitter, losing his insecurities but gaining fury. As he escaped he found himself angry at the world and became sarcastic and rather harsh. This state of being existed for quite some time until he met some very special people who showed him a way to live happily with his past.
Today he wisecracks jokes and treats his past as an example to avoid from the future. Wise but not withholding, he is sardonic and clever, never missing a punchline. He seeks people to help and protect and doesn't hestitate to throw himself into a dangerous situation. After a long while he embraced his Fever, and although it eats away at his insides with hunger, he refuses to feed it and tries to push the fury that engulfed him before away.

ABILITIES | ✓ SOUL OF FIRE-BASIC; Synthest's form is infused with fire, making him nigh invincible to it. He has a natural affinity, giving him the ability to use Firaga magics. He can manipulate its form in any way, creating walls, pillars, etc. All other elemental magics are at their ARA levels and casting any form of Blizzard magic will take from Syn's life force. Weaknesses include Water magics- they do extra damage to Syn, extinguishing his flame. With his acquired MAGIC BOOST, Syn is now capable of casting two spells simultaneously, as well as allowing him to cast up to five spells without a cooldown, after which he must wait two posts until he can use magic again.
HELLFYRE; Using Command Bind and Synthesis in conjunction, Syn refines his fire magic into an intensely powerful blue flame, so extreme that even the caster is unable to touch it. This fire is capable of burning through almost any substance, and cause flammable materials to combust almost instantaneously. This allows it to break through any form of physical defense and counteract most magical barriers. Its lethality can only be checked by complete immunity to flame, incredibly powerful magical shielding of the light or dark element or advanced water magic of the highest degree.
Due to its sheer destructive power, it is highly unstable and cannot be maintained for more than two posts without coming apart and proving a potentially mortal danger to any in its vicinity. If its form is not solidly maintained from the very outset of its casting, it will run amok and burn its caster, making it almost impossible to manipulate its shape after it has been summoned. This makes Hellfyre highly unsuitable for a multiple-strike long-ranged attack, due to the inhuman degree of control one must have over each and every projectile in question to make sure it does fall to pieces. Once used, it cannot be cast again until the next page.
IBLIS EDGE; Syn forms a hilt with the metal from his Virtegon and summons a triangular blade of Hellfyre to rise from it. The length of the blade can be stretched to three metres, although it is in proportion with the breadth of the blade. Its length must be preordained upon casting, and its length cannot be changed once it has formed, unless it is dismissed and re-formed once the cooldown period has passed.
Due to the nature of it being made from Hellfyre, it is able to burn through the enemy's defenses and cannot be successfully blocked by anything other than equipment with magical durability of the highest degree. Being struck by this technique causes a burn almost without fail. Since it is in essence virtually weightless, attacks can be made with greater ease and speed, although control over its shape is more difficult to maintain the faster it is swung. This technique can only be used once per page for two posts, and no other techniques using Hellfyre can be used following this technique until the next page.
BELIAS BLAZE; Syn summons a sphere of Hellfyre and launches it at his opponent. Due to its highly volatile nature and its size when thrown, this technique is an extremely dangerous due to the instability of its form. Upon impact, the sphere explodes violently, causing fatal damage to anything within a two-metre radius (the same degree of described damage as Hellfyre) and heavy splash damage to all nearby foes. The explosion also results in a conflagration that spreads over a three-metre radius that cannot be put out except through highly advanced water magic or other powerful enchantments.
Due to the nature of it being made from Hellfyre, it is able to burn through the enemy's defenses and cannot be successfully blocked by anything other than equipment with magical durability of the highest degree. Being struck by this technique causes a burn almost without fail. The sphere is relatively slow in transit due to the concentration Syn requires to keep it from falling apart while moving, and its size is inversely proportional to its speed. This technique can only be used once per page, and no other techniques using Hellfyre can be used following this technique until the next page.
✓ SYNTHESIZE!; Synthest has the ability to forge crystals into weapons, giving his weapon elemental affinities. From shimmering crystals to blazing crystals, he can switch as he sees fit- he cannot equip two Elemental crystals at the same time.
COMMAND BIND; Using synthesis materials, Syn can combine them and draw on their power to create stat-boosting enchantments. These are dependent on his proficiency with the Command Bind as well as the purity of the materials at his disposal. The rarer the component used, the longer the period of effect. Shards last a single post, gems lasting three, while crystals last a single page. However, in order to use successive Binds, the previous Command Bind must be cancelled. Since the materials used in this technique are finite, using Command Bind in quick succession can take a heavy toll on one's inventory. Syn is currently capable of Type A Command Bind, which allows him to activate Fire Boost, Magic Haste, Leaf Bracer, Air Combo Plus, HP Boost, HP Prize Plus and Link Prize Plus.
✓ ZANTETSUKEN-LIGHT; The Dream Sword. With their weapon of choice, a character can lash out cutting attack luminated by light causing severe damage a 3 post stun. If the character is too amateur to learn such technique it will have a heavy drawback on them resulting into full out fatigue. Recovery duration can be discussed with staff so it can fit any character. Only one character can have this ability at all times, and its a limit used once per thread.
Fortunately, and thanks to the help of a certain Kuu, Synthest has learned to control this spell somewhat sufficiently. While he is fatigued by the spell, it has no major drawbacks.
WEAPONS | VIRTEGON; A matte black longsword. Sockets are visible along the lengths of the blade, where different Synthesis crystals can be attached. Moving these crystals to the hilt of the weapon, where a slot is clearly visible, will immediately Synthesize the blade with the crystal's effects. One elemental crystal can be used at a time, which can now be enhanced with one Command Bind at a time. When not in use, Synthest wears the metal on his arm as a gauntlet/pauldron set with his Synthesizing abilities.
Note that he can manipulate the shape and form of his weapon, although it will ALWAYS default back to the longsword. This includes anything from a lance to a chain whip, a shield and sword, etc. Note that the weapon's mass cannot exceed that of its original proportions, so it cannot be turned into anything extreme like a greatsword.

Hi hi, I know this character has been approved already, but reapplying opened the door of Ellie hard-core questioning time to help you develop a stronger story. History and Story : Overall your storyline is vague; I imagine a lot of the details are stored in your head and enough isn’t given to your readers to comprehend. So let’s commence.
The Prelude:
The truth of the matter was that his World knew of the worlds beyond it and had hidden the Heartless from society, to do tests on the people in their government, similar to the ideas of Xehanort and his fellow apprentices. Unfortunately, theirs didn’t work out so well.
That last statement confuses me; I suspect a typo. 1.) You’ll have to come up with a better motivation for the government because thanks to BBS the events revolving around Xehanort wasn’t a whim; it’s far to in-depth to be loosely duplicated. Pretty much with Kingdom Hearts everything hit the fan with Master Xehanort, so the ideas were all builds up of one old fart. 2.) How did the government knew of other worlds? Gummiblocks didn’t exist until a year after BBS. How were they able to withhold the heartless? With Radiant Garden everything hit the shitter the same year it started. 3.) How long have they been going at this? Your sense of time is loose.
Syn: 1.) Why was Syn trained as a soldier in an academy to repel darkness when darkness wasn’t a major issue. What work was he training for military work? I doubt that’s the case since his teacher, Keyon, is an…assassin, whooo pretty much kill for hire, so I doubt there’s much patriotic morale there. 2.) How old was he when he started in this academy? 3.) When did he develop the skills to synthesize? Naming this world earth made it seem pretty normal, so I don’t get where this supernatural skill arose. What the hell does it have to do with the heartless? 4.)I still to this day do not comprehend the heartless presence within him that you dub a disease. When did this happen and how. With Kingdom Heart games being expanded, I advise to think this thoroughly. I’ve known others who attempted this, but his angle was totally different. What’s the purpose of this if you didn’t even elaborate on it? 5.)
Syn looked to his hero, Keyon, who had taught him during his time at the academy to save the place. Unfortunately, his hero wasn’t the Lightest. The dark-hearted assassin turned to the Heartless side, defecting from Synthest, leaving him broken, and disappeared into the skies.
Why did Keyon sided with the heartless? I just find it weird he spent his years teaching in supposedly a good military institute to be…a baddy. Why?
6.) How does he looks 17 but is 25 an unaging? The Fight Against Darkness: 5.)
After years, Synthest traveled with two companions. Their names were Keilah and Lloyd. Together, the three battled the Darkness that threatened their own World, far away from the ones that Sora and co. traveled to.
How many years? You’re telling me that they’ve been having Heartless problems for YEARS and their world hadn’t fallen yet? Unfortunately it doesn’t make sense, because I doubt it would take that long for a heartless to find the heart to their world.
6.)
In this case, a man named Ocean had discovered the Darkness and was using it to slowly destroy their Worlds in order to regain the Light in his Heart that he had lost.
Who is Ocean and how did he discover the Darkness years later after the government discovered it? I do not understand the logic of his motivation. How would destroy a world…help his heart? Why was his light lost to begin with? It sounds more like a personal problem…than one solved by…destroying a world.
7.)
The trio battled him and his minions, having the most difficulty with the one named Keyon, and finally managed to kill the man.
Is this his teacher? You make it seem like a total different person. If it’s his teacher…how did he become in leagues with Ocean?
8.)
Specifically, Ocean wanted Synthest‘s soul, for his Heart had gone cold and he wanted to eat a soul of fire to melt the ice that had taken him. As it turned out, this dark magic was a direct result of Synthest‘s hidden secret**After his death, Synthest bestowed himself with the name Rayne, out of regret for Ocean's demise.**
Poetically and metaphorically speaking…that would make sense. I don’t get how that would make since in reality. Also you never ever mentioned when Syn started to learn fire magic. Also how did Ocean die? Why was Ocean such a major significance for Syn to change his name? He just seemed like another random bad guy with no attachments to the main character.
9.)
See, along the way, Synthest had gained a sickness. In truth, Keyon (who escaped in the end) had bestowed him with it years ago and left him to die, and Synthest had to leave his friends for their own safety.
…So…keyon didn’t die now… If Syn had this issues years ago…why now is he concerned of his friend’s safety. Obviously there weren’t endangered by him…since they lived this long.
10.) And found this place. He came to these worlds four years ago, and has since then saved the worlds, made friends, been captured by the Dark XII (he still has the shackle as proof), and escaped again. He has fallen to his Darkness and followed the road to dawn back into the light, and is now focused on saving the World and finding his friends once more. But the problem is, the Worlds he came from and left are long gone, most likely destroyed by the Darkness. The friends that lived in these Worlds, the ones attacked by the Organization/Dark XII, are also disappearing, and most of the people he knew are now gone. All that remains of his past is the dark shackle on his wrist and the disease that feeds off of his Heart.
This is when Ellie is just going to talk now…
How did he come to the worlds of the Kingdom Heart universe? Did he walked all the way? He left his world…which was in who know what state when he left...to come to the KH universe for he won’t harm his friends, but surround himself with other people…who he can hurt as well.
He wants to go find his friends now…after finding the road to light…when he was already light-affiliated to begin with; despite his odd and vague character development of “I’m light but I can harm you guys…so I’ll leave while I’m still light…and go here…where I’ll untimely fall to darkness…but I’m light again but beware I still have darkness issues like I did at square one that hadn’t threaten anyone.”
Also I would fix your time because it really isn’t treated as 4 yrs later of kh2, but a yr later. So I don’t know how your time line would function. 4 yrs ago would be 2 yr before kh1. Yes the site may have been around for over 4 years, but …live time doesn’t always reflect time in threads…at all. 1 thread is taking a year to complete…and it’s still pending.
…
Abilities:
Soul of Fire- Basic; I do not agree with his usage Firaja; yes he’s been approved with it, but with his history…I don’t even see why I should believe that he have a magical background. There’s no evidence what so ever expect random tidbits spotted here and there.
Let it be known that I would most likely NOT permit him to use firaja, because that’s bloody overboard, and with reading his foundation, I cannot see how this was permitted at all in the first place.
Also if he has a magic bank you should list them all versus being general of “all other elemental magics are HERE”. This is enough to make me question the rest of your following skillset, because they are all relative to this maximum power and unstable history.
It’s very unfortunate to do this, but I do not see a character in here, and I wonder if that’s why you struggle with rping him, because there isn’t a person here. Also I wonder if the reason why is because you have too much going on for him and a bulk of it is not even explained enough for you to fully utilize as a part of his character. He has more bells, whistles, and trials than a solid persona before all of that; the worst part is that his background is world doesn’t help mold that at all.
Looking at his history, it reads like an elaborate story for a game as if it’s Kingdom Hearts somewhere else, so you have a high in creativity to type it out, but you’re missing a lot of things of who this kid was, time to track his progression, and a lot of reasoning to make sense and his world and situation realistic for people to identify and comprehend. So hit me up on msn we can talk this out, and see if we can take this block of marble and find your character in it.
The Lesson For Everyone not everything you make would be perfect even if you're an old timer here at WD. I look at some of my stuff wondering how the hell did this fly. So if anyone see's a post of this caliber with their profile, think of it as me caring enough to thoroughly read through your profile and try to push you. How can anyone improve if flaws aren't pointed out? Yes I do love a good profile where I go: "OMG...it's..it's fine!", and I do spend time questioning myself did I miss something and not doing my job adequately, but there's nothing better than going "Wow...I have a lot of work to do" because it gives you something to aspire to.
Alright... I think I've covered everything? xD Most of the issues were in my history, so I'll start with the basic stuff.
Firaja changed to Firaga, because I agree with you there. To balance the natural affinity, any Blizzard spell will take his lifeforce, double for Blizzara. Note that he has trained with magic for about seven or eight years now, so it's not improbable that he's learned so much.
-History stuff elaborated/changed: 1.) Their intentions were good enough- the idea was to use Darkness to unlock magic, which had been forgotten to the people of that World. It was an experiment gone wrong, and it ended up infecting their soldiers.
2.) Changed to not even mention other worlds. Considering knowledge of the other worlds was pretty much useless, I cut it altogether.
3.) The time that the Academy was active was slightly elaborated on. I didn't put an exact date but I gave the information Synthest knew: They'd been around for a long while, protecting the World.
Syn's History: 1.) Synthest was in training to be a peacekeeper, essentially. The Academy was a neutral organization that acted as a worldly deterrent. Don't do anything stupid or the Academy will be on your tail. While it wouldn't work in our world, the smaller Worlds seem smaller and easier to manage.
2.) The estimated age would be seven or so. Growing up in the Academy is repetitive, what is expected at any type of school, so I didn't think it would be necessary. All hell broke loose when he was around the age of fifteen, roughly, and by the time the World fell to the Heartless he was seventeen or eighteen. At this point he was fully attuned to the Heartless in him and his body stopped aging.
3.) The ability to Synthesize was only acquired after he was infected. While it wasn't a major breakthrough, without the awoken magic he would have been unable to learn how to. Goes in-hand with his Fire-attunement. Since the walls between Worlds were down, it's not impossible for Moogles to find their way there and establish business.
4.) This has been expanded. The Heartless presence was a suit that basically attempted to harness the abilities of the Heartless. Only the more one used the abilities, the higher the chance of being infected by that same Heartless.
5.) I elaborated on that to explain why he turned on the Academy. The next three years were spent creating and managing an organization that would shut down the Academy. Whether it worked or not is unknown as Synthest as he broke all ties with the Academy and killed Heartless on his own.
6.) This was elaborated. The Heartless stopped his body from aging in order to keep the host prime. Age stopped and his immune system was boosted to avoid sickness.
Next Chapter's History: 1.) I didn't phrase that correctly at all in the original history. They actually traveled across multiple Worlds and some of them they could not save. D: But the initial idea was to protect Nero, and they eventually left to chase Ocean and stop him.
2.) Ocean was the Nobody to Syn's Heartless. His thought was similar to that of Xemnas' in Kingdom Hearts II (not including the revelations in 3D): Make Kingdom Hearts to get power.
3.) As for Keyon, there's a wild card. He's the archetypal sage, and his existence and motives aren't clearly visible. He's a baddy at this point by nature, but whatever his true goals are vague. After all, he didn't try taking Kingdom Hearts. But his affiliation with Ocean was purposeful. Like the situation with Roxas looking like Ventus and Vanitas looking like Sora, Ocean had Synthest's face despite being different, and Keyon knew right away there was a connection between them.
4.) The whole issue with Ocean needing Synthest's heart was revamped. I created a better parallel to the Kingdom Hearts universe.
5.) Nah, Keyon's not dead. Hoping to make some kind of plot involving what his motives were. Don't plan on bringing him here though. Straightened up his reason for leaving: Shame for his parasite and a search for answers.
6.) So I think I covered that successfully. Ocean used the ship 'Gestalt', created from the Gummi fragments from broken Worlds, to ferry people between worlds. Since he's your average baddie, he had minions that weren't important or relevant enough to the Kingdom Hearts universe to mention, and he needed a way to traverse them without harming their Hearts. Note that they had a ship before then, he just wasn't going to steal Lloyd/Keilah's ride home.
Now there was a period of time after he left Lloyd and Keilah and before he made it to Traverse Town, which was where he landed first. Timeline-wise, he was a little younger than Ventus in BBS when this all started. Maybe 12/13 during the BBS arc. Five years after BBS he was fully attuned to the parasite and stopped aging. His World was then destroyed. The next year or so were dedicated to Ocean.
The next three years would be spent traveling the outside Worlds until he arrived in Traverse Town. He would arrive at roughly twenty-two and be there during the course of Kingdom Hearts I to the current.
I think that's an accurate summary of the timeline? xD If you have anything else that needs to be changed just lemme know!

Alrighty I've seen where this is going to, and it's pretty similar to story problems my class film had. You can't solve problems or make a story better by adding more to it; it just makes more problems. Imagine if you will, that your profile is a Jenga game, and instead of having a secure foundation, you continued to pile more blocks on top.
I suspect majority of the problem is that you're too in love with an old concept that have too many flaws; you're not looking at this profile with fresh eyes, but as a continuation. As long as you do that, I doubt there would be much success in fixing it. This is like trying to save a whimsical story you made when you're 5 versus recreating.
My concerns: 1.) You have a long complex history that doesn’t help construct your character or display his growth or progression. Instead it looks like a series of unfortunate events just to poorly solve old story issues.
It doesn’t give more to his person, but just drama. He coincidentally has a heartless in his body, who’s ironically is the heartless of the Nobody he’ll go up against later on in life. What does that do for him? Nothing just busy work, fill in, and too much coincidence for…no ulterior reason or meaning. It's slapstick.
Some of your solutions are so wide stretched to save you wide stretched concepts, and other problems weren't solved at all.
EVERYONE is required to explain how someone learned a skillset. Oswald knows how to build a gummiship because he was a mechanic and discovered the blocks when they entered his world. Miliania have basic survival skills and quite lithe and agile, because she grew up in a nomadic tribe and was a street performer in acrobatics. In Syn’s case there isn’t a great display in explaining where he acquired his skills; first it was his symbotic parasitic heartless relation that granted him synthesis, now it’s a random thrown in moogle for convenience. I don’t know how he obtained fire to begin with, but now he “learned” fire…because…he was mad.
I want you to take a week to think this over; you did this revision within a day of my last post. I think you need to marinate the idea of rebooting your character. Strip yourself of its old concepts and start over, while still preserving some aspects such as: Fire magick (where he can learn from SOMEONE), synthesis (what if it's a craft common in his world), darkness issues (it is his own darkness rather than an exterior force). If he seeks out to learn these things, then it says something about his interest and likes (things you never touched on).
Overall the solution is simplifying; as I said before you have TOO much going for this character. Chop of all the fat and restart with the meat, which looks like the fire, synthesis, and darkness. Those are the only consistent things here. You can simplify the history, keep the names of the PEOPLE who are IMPORTANT and those you are willingly to detail.
Still to this day...not all of Keyon is developed or explained to make sense. He cuts down Keisha. Why? He turned on Synthest. Why? He worked for Ocean. Why? How the hell did he find Ocean? Unexplained.
If you're going to have them that involved; you might as well explain their motives. You should be able to since they are your creations. As supporting characters they are valuable in molding your character, but if everything they do is bs or how my mom puts it "half-assed"...it doesn't say much for the story and the writer. >O DO IT MAN AND DO IT GOOD!
So how to help you rethink this. I'll first say the first 1/2 of his history can stay and be workable. I'll cut the later 1/2 of KH spin off with Ocean. I know I can probably rethink of a way to reuse his figure for stronger purposes, but I don't want to give too much material since this is your story and not mine. Seriously I built a backstory for the current world you have now.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Define Syn's world. We are by product of our environment and family. Start there. Hit me up when you're making it to see if its sound and solid. At least that way you'll know if the foundation is strong and promising for Syn.
Where did Syn grew up? What was his family like? What was his childhood like? I know you don't recall yours well, but we are all bound to our childhood; it molds us and how we respond to it dictates our movements. Although you don't recall yours, you can still be choosing things in response to it subconsciously.
WHEN did he entered the Academy? I don't want this explain in your next post but in the history. Why did he entered the Academy? He didn't have to go there of all places, and I'm sure he have a reason why. This can help express who he is and show his ideology.
Let's take it slow and start there. The introduction of darkness still deals with how the world is.
Hey Ells! Thanks for helpin me through this, but I've decided Imma let Syn rest for a while. I kind of feel like I've lost touch with his character and I don't know if I can do him justice. It'll be a breath of fresh air to release him and potentially replace him. I'll go ahead and move him to the archives if that's coo.
