Sephy Audition

[leonidas]

NOTE: this is not how I really rp, and I do not intend to godmod. It's just me telling a story really and showing you how my Sephiroth will act. This is just an audition and does not effect ANY person or area involved, just me writing stuff out, because Sephiroth by himself in a thread would be boring.

The cold, dark night could be felt all throughout Gaia. The planet itself had no problem, but it was the fiend Sephiroth manipulating the weather into something from fables. Snow fall quickly followed after night fall. The people of Edge, either inside trying desperately to either stay warm inside or huddle together outside near any rogue fires that had been created to ride out the night. Poverty, it was the ever lingering issue for the mortals of Edge, even after his abrupt defeat by the forces of his former comrade Zack Fair and Cloud, the city only improved the lives of those that already had something, and neglected those who were left with nothing. Cloud…. How I miss toying with you… Sephiroth gave off a evil laugh as he emerged from the life stream just south of Edge.

Sephiroth extended his arm forward, opening his hand, just as quickly as he did his Masamune appeared, forming from hilt to tip, he grasped it quickly. Looking upon the distant city of Edge all he could do was grin, for he knew of the chaos he was going to unleash upon the hopeless city. Sephiroth started to pace forward, almost in a synchronized pace, then he abruptly stopped. Walking... Such a mortal task... I am a mortal, NO I AM A GOD!! Sephiroth sliced at the thin air, the sound of his Masamune cutting the air particles bounced against the nearby rocks and created an echo. A sickly smile overcame Sephiroth’s face; the wrinkles on the edge of his mouth become ever so present. A God does not partake in such petty tasks like walking! “hmph” as he said this a single black wing extended from his back. The wing itself was awe inspiring, feathers and down flew off of the wing and quickly disappeared when the hit the floor. Sephiroth grasped the Masamune and it quickly vanished and in one powerful motion he was lifted off of the land and took to the skies, his destination Edge.

The pure adrenaline of flying was enough to overtake Sephiroth again, thinking back to past, SOLDIER, and his allies, surely he would have to find Genesis, they would be able to use Mother’s power and finally sail the cosmos with Gaia as the Lunar Vessel. They were both children of Jenova, though their creation was different they were very much the same, and so they were destined to become one. His thought process, however sane at the moment was cut short when he started seeing the figures of homeless people on the streets of Edge, and so, it was finally time... ”Cloud….” He hastily descended from the skies and straight into an alley. It took him a while to lure some kids near the alley, but once he did the rest was simple. These kids had geostigma, and therefore were at the mercy of his will, and so it was officially a cat and mouse game… ”Find me… Your Hero… Cloud Strife…

The kids went without a hint of hesitation; Sephiroth willed them to do so. The kids quickly scurried to 7th Heaven, making their presence quickly known. “Tifa! Please help! Our mother was attacked by some thugs with materia! Please, she’s going to die!”, Tifa was dumbfounded, hesitating for a second she asked one of the children to lead her to the thugs, and so one child did. The other walked over to Cloud’s room and stood just in the doorway. Cloud looked at the boy and was shocked to see a green coloring in his eyes and quickly yelled out “Tifa!”. He scurried into an empty bar, and then ran back to the boy, “Take me to where you took her!”. The boy complied with the request and led him to the opening of a dark alley, where Tifa and the girl were waiting. “So where are they?” Tifa asked impatiently, “I left my bar unlocked!”. “Tifa!” Cloud yelled, as Masamune was lunged through the small girl, it stopped right in front of Tifa. ”Hello Cloud, how is my favorite clone?” Sephiroth spoke as he walked forward; carrying the deceased girl on his Masamune and pushing Tifa back at sword tip at the same time. ”Is this what you cherish most Cloud? This mortal? You chose her over MOTHER?!?”

Cloud pulled his buster sword out, and Sephiroth quickly swatted the dead body off of his Masamune, slashing the other boy in half. His sword was now set on Cloud. ”Like I said Cloud, I will NEVER be a memory!” He chuckled a bit as he flung the blood off of his Masamune. “Argh!” Cloud yelled whilst running and slashing at Sephiroth, all the One Winged Angel did was dodged to the right and slash at Cloud whilst he became engulfed in the darkness of the alley. In doing so he cut the nearby building in half, sending rubble flying towards Tifa. “Tifa run! I’ll handle this!” Cloud said as Sephiroth smirked once more, ”Now will you? Without poor Zack to aid you? “ he gave another loud laugh as he lunged towards Cloud slashing left and right, cutting arm and leg, it was a replay of their previous battle, although this time Sephiroth was not letting off. He continued until cloud started dodging, then finally flew to the air.

He raised his right hand and the life stream seemed to flow from the earth directly to him. "Do you see clone! This is what happens when the planet recognizes a GOD!!. fin.

Okay, I'm going to tell you just about the same thing as I said last night, I hope that this time some changes will be made. I'm not going out of my way to try and be a bad guy here, just trying to abide by the site's rules and the style of the character.

• We don't allow godmodding here, we've had people change auditions because of it, even if it's just a sample. We want to see how YOU role play, and even above you said this isn't how you really role play.
  
• Sephiroth is a complex character, from what I've read and talked about with other staff members, your portrayal of Sephiroth seems to be a bit too crazy. We know he's off his rocker a bit, but even in his personality description on the Final Fantasy Wiki, it says that he's still composed and what not. He'd maintain that elegance about him, just have a more murderous and vengeful side. I'd take a look at that and try to alter his personality to be more canon. Be sure to do your homework, everything can be found on finalfantasy.wikia.com
  

I'd really like this to be looked over and revised, just because Sephiroth is such a complex canon to play and we here on Eternal Darkness like to stick to the characters being as canon as possible, there is a bit of room for some changes, but not much, especially with characters like this. Please just read through the wiki and do some editing. I'm sure it'll be great and just shoot me a personal message or find me on yahoo and I'll take a look once things are changed.

Thanks so much!
