Jul. 5th, 2012 01:59 amSo Dilandau's power in the Port is to possess bodies, here's the lowdown on how it works exactly.
- It requires eye contact.
- Dilandau will not be able to see/read your characters memories and mind.
- Possession will last from a few minutes to three hours at max when he's practiced at it.
- Your character will not remember anything of the time they were possessed, it will be a gap in their memory.
- After Dilandau has possessed your character he will then be able to track them wherever they are afterwards. Please consider this when granting permission for the possession, your character will not be able to hide from Dilandau anymore.
When possessing others Dilandau's body will be left wherever it falls so he will use this power as a last resort only, or when he's sure his body will be safe.
So! Answer me these questions three :D
1) Can Dilandau possess your character?
2) Can he injure them while possessing them --
3) and can he kill their body while possessing them?
Naturally things like Dilandau making network posts and such as your character will be worked out on a case by case basis. If you have any other ideas/concerns please let me know in the comments!

Canon Source: Vision of Escaflowne
Canon Format: Anime
Character's Name: Dilandau AlbatouCelena Schezar
Character's Age: 15
Conditional: If your character is 13 years of age or under, please clarify how they will be played. n/a
What form will your character's NV take? When not in use it appears as a simple metal ball, the metal turns liquid when the nv is turned on to form the screen and buttons, akin to the liquid metal that creates his guymelef's weaponry.
Abilities
Character's Canon Abilities: Guymelef pilot - The name given to mecha in the series, these are the primary military weapons used by the nations on Gaea. The Alseides units used by Zaibach armed forces have numerous technological advantages, including liquid metal that can be shaped into swords or whips, flight and invisibility cloaks. Dilandau's personal guymelef is also equipped with a flame thrower which he uses to deadly effect.
Swordsman - Dilandau is adept with a sword as his close combat weapon of choice. Additionally it can be argued he is handy with a knife as he is seen throwing one into the side of a glass bottle without shattering the bottle itself.
Hand to hand - As a part of his basic military training.
Conditional: If your character has no superhuman canon abilities, what dormant ability will you give them?Does turning into a girl sometimes count? Possession - Dilandau will be able to temporarily leave his body and take control of others. It will be for short periods of no more than a few minutes at first until he becomes practiced at it, whereupon he'll be able to do so for up to three hours. The victim will remember nothing of their time under his control. As a downside of this Dilandau will have to leave his own body vulnerable, it also requires eye contact with the victim to work and while possessing their body he will not be able to see into their mind. This will never be done without explicit mun permission.
Minor tracking - Ties to the possession, once he has possessed a person he'll have an ability to instinctively find them wherever they are.
Weapons: A sword.
History/Personality/Plans/etc.
Character History: Wiki
Point in Canon: Episode 5
Conditional: Brief summary of previous RP history: n/a
Character Personality: Spoiler! Dilandau is actually two people, his other personality may appear through the course of gameplay so I'll be writing about both of them.
Dilandau is a man of many moods, he can be short-tempered and vicious, or giggly and childlike. He can accurately be described as a sociopath, possessing an obsessive thirst for violence and pain and exhibiting little in the way of restraint or conscience unless held in check by a higher power with next to no compassion for the feelings of others.
Unstable at the best of times his mind has slowly been deteriorating further after his face was scarred, Dilandau is exceedingly vain about his appearance and later takes to compulsively stroking the scar and forms an obsession with the one who inflicted it. The initial cause for his insanity is in the manner of his creation at the hands of Zaibach scientists, Dilandau has no family or home he is aware of and his only purpose in existence is to serve the Zaibach empire. To all outward appearanc he seems unphased by this, loyal to a fault and interested only in sating his thirst for battle.
The closest thing he has to family is his Dragonslayers who are treated with value and yet abuse. Dilandau holds his people to high standards and doesn't tolerate failure, handing out punishment personally. Though he is often physically and verbally abusive to them he commands great loyalty and it is stated by his troops that they hold great affection for their leader, defending him even beyond death. This emotional dependency on other people to support him is seen throughout the series and after the death of the Dragonslayers is passed to his childhood caretaker Jajuka who is very much aware of how fragile Dilandau's psyche is. He grieves for his Dragonslayers after they die and when he loses Jajuka it is what finally coerces Dilandau to turn back into Celena permanently.
It is clear that after the loss of his support structure Dilandau has a phobia of being alone, an echo of his former life as Celena who was often left alone while waiting to be experimented on. When she was taken to be changed into Dilandau her caretaker Jajuka had to be forcibly parted from her and the last words she can be heard screaming are "Don't leave me alone!". From these factors it's clear some presence of Celena exists within Dilandau's personality and when he starts to fall apart it becomes stronger.
In addition to his love of violence and bloodshed Dilandau also exhibits a love for fire, to the point of pyromania, in almost every battle he'll burn the target to the ground if he can. In fact Dilandau can be incredibly stubborn when it comes to battle, often taking fights to a personal level and pursuing a target relentlessly until explicitly ordered to fall back or halted by another factor, usually his guymelef being damaged beyond the capability to follow his target. He seems to have no concern towards the lives of civilians, he burns Fanelia to the ground and sets the capital city of Asturia alight despite the possible casualties of the uninvolved people who lived there.
Celena Schezar is in many respects still a young girl mentally, the age she was when the Zaibach scientists warped her into Dilandau. Appearing when Dilandau's mind could no longer take the strain of his current existence Celena found her way back to her brothers home thanks to a pillar of light which transported him/her and Dilandau's guymelef nearby. She seemed to be mute, not speaking nor offering explanation to her brother Alan about where she had been. By all accounts Celena was a cheerful and kind young girl before she was kidnapped and at the end of the series when Celena's personality seems to gain full control of her body and fate -- possibly merging with Dilandau's -- she is against the violence and fighting going on around her.
Conditional: Personality development in previous game: n/a
Character Plans: BURN ALL THE THINGS. He'll be looking to get the hell out of this place, avoid getting shoved into the sanitorium and very much seek to grab power for himself, something he may do through the companies. At least at first.
Appearance/PB: Icons!
Writing Samples
First Person Sample This place makes me sick... all of it.
A nesy of rats, scurrying and squeaking about how poor and opressed they are. Tch! Boohoo, the nasty Newcomers are coming in and ruining our lives! One of them threw a rock at me, at me! She was lucky she ran fast.
I could show them what real oppression is! [He thunders this out before quieting back down.] Show them just how much worse it could be...
[He draws a finger down the line of the scar on his cheek, over and over again.]
Maybe that's what they need, a little motivation to be nicer to us. [The giggle that escapes him is high pitched and malevolent.]
It would certainly liven things up around here, don't you all agree~? Sometimes you just have to burn the infection away so the wound can heal.
Third Person Sample
"Insect!" Dilandau snarled, almost howled as his armoured fist grabbed the Greeter by the neck. "Don't you lie to me!" he squeezed the mans neck tight, ignoring the fingers scrabbling at his arm and the unintelligible pleas.
With a heave he threw the man away, hand twitching towards the hilt of his sword. Bits of paper scattered everywhere, some kind of leaflet the man had tried to hand to him, tch, like he'd believe that tripe. Another world?
But then... that girl, that girl she'd come from the Mystic Moon... if that were possible then--
"I couldn't have, I couldn't..." he needed to go back, needed to, he had a war to fight, a dragon to catch. Dilandau felt his eye starting to twitch and scar on his cheek begin to throb. His hand rose and started to stroke over it, soothing repetitive motions, down, down until it began to sting. The Greeter had long fled by the time he got his thoughts back on track.
He'd just have to find someone with the answers, the real answers. Yes, that was what he'd do... then Dilandau would make them fix this.
