"Very well." Grace said to Four as she took the patch. She also became worried about Winter. "Winter, can you here me?" she asked.

Okay, first the Bright Shield Rune is a largely defensive and healing Rune. Being an aspect of the Rune of Beginning, one of the 27 True Runes, it is a powerful one at that.
The Spells I have reveled so far:
Lv1: Great Blessing: This is a group heal that can also restore negative status effect as well. It's for more small to medium injuries. It won't regrow arms or anything, but will mend cuts and bruises.
Lv2:Shining Light: This is a group attack spell. It can hit multiple targets and pierce them with holy light. Think hard light constructs, if you like. It's also how I reason his defensive Shield.
I have not yet used the level 3 or 4 spells. At least not properly. Forgiver Sign, which I used to heal Four is the level Four Spell, but I only used part of it's effect. It honestly should have fully restored her, too, but @Drak asked if it would be all right to leave some minor things on Four, so I did.
The Thunder Rune is a powerful offensive Rune. It's actually the upgraded version of the Lightning Rune. This means the the level 2 spell of the Lighting Rune is the Thunder Runes Level 1 Spell and it also has a potent unique level 4 spell. Generally, this is a single Target Rune, but some liberties can be made. It's intended to give Riou some flexibility in his attacks.
Lv1: Thunder Runner: This attack runs on the ground hitting anything it it's way.
Lv3: Thor Shot: This Spell surrounds a target witha pair of triangle symbols that then form a star and then strikes them with a powerful Lightning bolt.
I haven't used the Level 2 or 4 Spells on this Rune. Really, it's just more powerful and impressive Lightning Spells.
Twin Fang is Riou's weapon. It is a pair of tonfa. Riou is actually a capable physical fighter, though it hasn't been able to be established with some of our opponents.
You might notice that Riou has two spell Runes and one supporting his weapon. I haven't revealed what effect that one has yet. And he has no Rune on his head, though he could, I didn't use one there for the sake of balance.

The Black Sword Rune is a completely offensive and devastating Rune. All of it's spells are meant to destroy and crush his opponent. It's the complete opposite of Riou's. It too, is a True Rune, but I won't go into that any deeper at the moment, for the sake of spoilers.
The revealed Spells (plus a bonus).
Lv1: Flash Jusgement: This Spell attacks a single target. I'm translating this as him sending out a single sword of black magical energy.
Lv2: Twinkling Blade: Haven't used it yet, but it is similar to Riou's Shining Light, expect there is no defense concept and it creates black magical energy.
Lv3: Piercing One: Actually regret using this one, since it was treated like it didn't happen, but whatever. This spell pierces a target with three swords made of pure black energy and then explodes. A devastating Spell to be sure.
Yeah, the level 4 spell will make you wet your pants...
He uses a staff for combat. He isn't as strong in physical combat as Riou, but he is still capable and is slightly stronger in his magic.
You may have gathered that he has three magic Runes, but no Rune to support his weapon, unlik Riou. I won't reveal the other Runes, yet, but I will say this. They are intended to address Jowy's weak points. One has defensive intentions, for example.
Also, note that I only ever intend to use one spell a turn. The only notable exception I might make would be Riou's defensive shield followed by another attack spell. Also, I intend to use those MP totals for a whole day. For the most part, that won't be a concern, but you can rest assured that I won't be spamming level 4 or even level 3 spells on anyone.
Okay, that should do.

Okay, that should do.
Gerry woke up and found he was hugging Asha. He felt a bit disappointed, but still hugged her closer.
OoC: Back. Sorry about the badly-timed exit. Anyone want any last words, or should she just be off quietly?
@Salty That was a very interesting read. Though I have to ask what are the MP totals? Unless those Name MP lists are the number of times that a Rune spell of that level can be done in a day. Also when you say day do you mean an in RP day or a RP session's day?
[sub][sub][sub]On a side note, reading the explanation has reminded me how much I have wanted to discuss the dimensional balancing of combat in this RP but haven't raised the point so as not to upset anyone...[/sub][/sub][/sub]

Lambda turned to Tophat, giving him a wave. "Goodbye Tophat. Thanks for helping Alicia out."
OoC: @Drak Lambda and the group are already outside. And what was in the breifcase? I'm guessing a fuckload of cash.
"[sub]Hi...[/sub]" Gerry said to Asha as he gave her a small smile.
Grace gave a final wave to Lambda.

Riou sees Rose pick up her guitar. Looks like she's gonna play some of her music for us. I guess I can wait to talk to Winter. I'd like to enjoy this performance, first.
Jowy looks over to see what Rose is doing, but doesn't move otherwise.
Athena goes to sit down, since she has said what she wanted to say.
OoC: @Nile You pretty much hit the Nail on the head. In Suikoden, Mp is done by level rather than total pool like in basically every other RPG. You basically have a level one mana pool, a level two, and level three, and a level four. If Riou uses Thunder Runner, he is down to 8 and can only use Thunder runner or Great Blessing 8 more times. You can run out of level two mana and still be able to cast level one, three and four spells. See how that works? And I mean a day real time. We seem to accept that things are more or less real time in the thread.

Reimu, seeing as how Lambda went her ways, gave her one last goodbye wave before going back into the depths of Paris to see if there was any more clinging youkai that needed to be sent.
Gwen let Winter rest and the sisters went into the ethereal plane.
Gordon went back into the ship to have a late lunch.
OOC: I'm off to have a bike ride to get rid of this headache I have.

@Gear: Whoops. Thought everyone was still inside. And yeah, the briefcase has a few hundred thousand dollars in cash. I was just gonna wait until you had Lambda open it, but you already guessed.
Rose realized that she had overlooked Lambda and slapped herself. Then she figured it was time to get down to business. She started to play and sing a song for Lambda as her way of saying goodbye.
"Oh! I just remembered! I have something I want to show you!" Asha said excitedly as she got out of bed and started searching around for her sketchbook.

OoC: @ALL: Sorry about that, been doing other things...
I finally open my eyes seeing Riou, Grace and most of everybody else around me.
"Oops..." I manage to groan out.

Now Gerry was disappointed by the fact that Asha had left the bed, but he was still interested to see what she wanted to show him.
Grace listened to Asha's song quietly.

Sounds like that game is challenging if there is a limit per day. Yes the concept is easy to understand. It's a bit like how you can only be a werewolf or get a blessing once per day in Skyrim. I kinda dunno what the agreement is on the passage of time in the RP. Sometimes people say that it has become night. Other times it sounds like people are falling asleep in the morning/at noon.Saltyk said:
So @Gear how exactly is Lambda leaving and any clue where to? Cause most of the city transport is dead...
