I'll help. How about pyro/hydro/aero/terrakinesis, weather manipulation, that one power where you shout really loud, hypernatural coordination/reflexes, a weapon summon, either full or partial body possession, darkness generation, teleportation between shadows, the ability to swap two objects of similar size, or super-detailed echolocation?
Oh gawd that list of Miracles is gettin' long. Thanks for the suggestions from death[sup]2[/sup], Dr. M2, and Arcanist. It's a little trickier than I thought trying to maintain a theological motif when making these. I think I gave up on that on half of them, to be honest.
Also, lovely to see the ranks are growing larger. >:3
Continue givin' feedback so I can continue tweakin'.
I added a new version of Practical Precognition, which took the spot of the old one (which was itself renamed Death Marker); Sleeping Whisper, which could be a useful way to advance the plot as well as give a character a unique role in their faction; Voice of the Hierarch; Mariamene's Cross; and Form (Creature), which may be a bit finicky.
Physical Appearance: A large and imposing figure, he has been Napoleon's little secret for a while and it shows. He has a crazed and wild look in his eyes that is filled with destruction and malice. His eyes are a bleak and depressing auburn with a dead and soulless gaze inside them. Sicard wears loose and baggy rags and doesn't bother much with appearance. He has a severe disregard for human life and it is shown by the specks of blood still on his clothes. The fact that this man even functions is a miracle within itself, but he somehow does.
Faction: France
Primary Weapon: Two ornate Katars, both mounted on his wrists and designed to both block bullets, and deal quick damage.
Primary Firearm: Two Dragons, which are Blunderbusses in handgun form. He is adept at loading them quickly and prefers to use them in dire situations against seraphim.
Bio: Lord Sicard, as he has been called, nobody knows his real name, is a Seraphim captured by Napoleon years and years back, destined to be executed for a wild rampage he brought against a town, he has been now shaped into a perfect weapon for Napoleon. Nicknamed Napoleon's personal guard dog, this beast of a man is typically held out of battle, due to his insatiable blood lust once he gets out, and tendency to rip anyone, including French, to pieces. His loyalty is questionable, but his effectiveness undeniable. Napoleon has been utilizing him in key battles to destroy artillery lines, route forces and especially to kill Seraphim.
Sicard is a berserker in battle, he has no regard for his own safety or that of others and only makes use of his knowledge of empathy to drive fear into the enemy. His plans are simple, investigate the enemy, see if they can be charged, if they can, then do it. If not, then find a way to charge them. He has lost countless soldiers as a field commander, but those who gain his respect, few as they are, can attest to his bravery in battle. Nobody really knows how he got his unique weapons, but it's likely a decision made up top to complement Sicard's fighting style.
On Sicard's fighting style, when out of his true form, he moves in with reckless abbadon, hacking off limbs like a hurricane into battle, shrugging off muskets and artillery fire like it was nothing. However, should any form of serious harm come to him, Sicard's secret weapon is his wolf form, capable of healing him quickly, the form isn't simply a werewolf, but a miasma of flesh that is both Sicard, and wolf at the same time, capable of stretching out in weird and unpredictable manners. He is known to fight in a very odd fashion when brought out, but any shred of humanity found in him prior to entering this form, is forever lost for an hour, which is why he has been trained to recognize situations when it is required, and only then use it. It's his ace in the hole and not to be taken lightly, as after the battle, it wreaks havoc on his body and requires a full days rest to recover.
Miracles and Powers: Powers and Animal form. He specializes in the wolf, mixing his regeneration and wolf form to be nearly invincible in battle, at the expense of long range capabilities and utility.
Primary Weapon:John carries an 1742 British infantry sword which he earned from a good friend who was a British General
Primary Firearm:James carries a flintlock pistol that hangs from his belt with one bullet in the chamber and a small bag of more bullets.
Physical Appearance:blue eyes, 5'o clock shadow bread, few scars, short black hair and he's 5,11 feet tall and well build
minus the gun and the backpack, the scarf is more tattered and torn
.
Miracles and Powers:John has been able to use Somatic Ballistics and Practical Precognition back when he was a boy since then he's grown and has become a master of these Miracles and skillful Combat.
Bio: In progress
Personality: A disciplined, ruthless, and aggressive person, John despises any other cowardly or disobedient man. He also has a habit of shooting/stabbing said cravens/dissenters immediately and on his own judgement.
I don't mean to step on Malbourne's toes here but there is quite a bit wrong with that sheet. For starters, GB wasn't involved in the slightest during Napoleon's Russian campaign, meaning that in this RP your character would have nothing to fight for and would probably be on a different landmass. Moving on to his Primary Weapon, that just isn't possible. Japan was under a foreign policy called Sakoku [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sakoku] (literally "chained country", meaning no one could go in or out under the penalty of death) until about four decades after the Napoleonic Wars ended, five depending on who's counting. Therefore he could not have been involved in a Japanese military campaign, let alone receive a sword in said war. Your firearm is odd, too; why are there two bullets in the chamber? Flintlock pistols with two firing barrels weren't a thing and two bullets in the same chamber is a recipe for only disaster. Next, I don't see why you didn't post the image under "Physical Appearance", you're describing a "Mr. Saber" who isn't mentioned anywhere else in your sheet, and the image 404'ed on me. Your M&P section makes little sense, as he's been able to use Miracles since he was a boy, but the OP states that people become Seraphs after committing a Righteous Deed. This could be explained away in your bio, but that hasn't been posted yet.
Glad to see Napoleon's got a Seraph of his own now.
Lookin' good, though there is one significant thing I need to emphasize: a Seraph cannot, unless specifically stated by their Miracle (which has not yet been done), use gunpowder-propelled projectiles to harm another Seraph. The bullet itself is not in physical contact with the Seraph, the rifle is (so you can hit a Seraph with the butt of the rifle, for all the good that'll do). This is why, if a Seraph wants to attack another, they use melee weapons or throwing weapons, but bullets (with the exception of Somatic Ballistics) may only piss them off.
May wanna tidy up the post a bit. Set pictures to wrap or whatnot. Just little editing finagles like that. Now:
I guess you did some editing after D[sup]2[/sup]'s suggestions. I can see the sword as being some sort of keepsake from an old friend of a friend or something, but until the bio's up there's only so much interpretation I can do. As for the Miracles, if you choose both Somatic Ballistics and Practical Precognition, then you're walled from using any Powers. I think the original writing of the Weapon Proficiency was ambiguous on that point so I'll edit it a bit to fit. I can give you more feedback when you update again!
Consider my toes bruised, good sir! Seriously, though, I need to stay on my toes since I'm responsible for this RP and its players; step on them if you need to.

Miracles and Powers:John has been able to use Somatic Ballistics and Practical Precognition back when he was a boy since then he's grown and has become a master of these Miracles and skillful Combat.
Bio:John was born in a wooded area with his mother and father, at nineteen John saved a man who had encountered a massive black bear who wandered into the local woods. The encounter left his ear disfigured and ended his father's life, the man who was a priest blessed him giving his miracles he learned he could fire bullets without using a musket, and that he could see the movements of the tiniest objects and predict their path. after that He buried his father by himself near their home, It wasn't long until his mother passed away from grief and he was left to live alone.
John lived his life quite well. He found a girl he loved and married her. A few months later she was pregnant and by the end of the next decade the pair had three children - two girls and one boy. He lived a happy life in the countryside and only rarely had to encounter violent wildlife or poachers that he dispatched with ease.
Six months passed, and in that fateful day John was away on his regular daily hunt. With the local armies passing through the countryside, they all had to fill their bellies and satisfy their needs. Since the local lord had left for a call to arms from his brother, the village under his protection was already ripe for the picking for the advancing armies. To this day John does not know who exactly decimated his village and killed his family, but all he was left with was the shadow of his former self.
John found himself a wanderer with no aim, On his path he saved many from marauders and deserters who used the weapons given to them to rob the poor and take what they want with force. His actions not gone unnoticed as he was approached by two men of the rebel group Libero Adstringo and was asked if he could help them with Napoleon hm he'd heard of Napoleon and his wanting conquest of the world John gladly and this is where he met our friend, the British General and after fighting together for two years he give John his sword from safe keeping.
Personality: A disciplined, ruthless, and aggressive person, John despises any other cowardly or disobedient man. He also has a habit of shooting/stabbing said cravens/dissenters immediately and on his own judgement.

I believe the biography soundly squelches most of the problems that were initially brought up. I was kinda hoping to know how that sword came to be in his possession though. Maybe that'll unravel later on. :<
And again, keep in mind that you may only have Skillful Combat if you drop Somatic Ballistics or Precognition. Anyhow, nicely done. I hope you do your character proud!
Righty-ho. I think it's time to start a group for this little adventure! Expect some invites in the near future. If you wanna drop out, now's the time!
