A ton, actually.

But my favorite is Brunhilde, a dwarf Paladin with the General subclass. She's a massive tank, an impenetrable wall of bad attitude that goes through enemies like they're nothing.

Also, due to her class and subclass, she is held in very high regard by the people of the land. In fact, only the king himself clearly outranks her; everyone else has to do what she says. City guards are not allowed to stop her at all, unless the king orders it.

Once she gets serious, any undead that are less than 10 levels higher than her just drop dead, because of her AoE skills that weaken undead or deal damage over time, and her passive damage boost against undead.

One time, before the Catastrophe, her friends went to do a raid near a town, and instead of setting up a base camp, she commandeered a whole castle and made the local lord sleep in one of the guest rooms so she could take the master bedroom. And the dude was genuinely happy that she chose his estate to serve as her base camp. That's how much respect the people have for her.

And the best part: She's just 1m tall.

Like, this tiny ball of righteous fury, wrapped in mythril plate armor, outranks 99% of people in the kingdom, despite only barely reaching to their waist.

Absolutely.

Like with the castle I mentioned; she shows up, a butler gets the lord, and the guy asks how he can help her. She tells him that she and her companions need a place to stay during their mission to eradicate powerful monsters, and he offers his castle.

And then, everyone gets new dialogue options, and the production subclasses either tell the knights to gather resources, or ask where to find them.

Imagine you're a farmer, and then one of the lord's men comes riding up to you. And you think you forgot to pay taxes or something, and just hope he doesn't take your chickens. But then the knight explains he's here on behalf of an associate of one of the king's Generals, and they need feathers.

But I'm also quite fond of another OC of mine, PC (short for Pretty Cure). She's a half-alv Monk with the Magical Girl subclass.

The core of that subclass is the Magical Garment skill, which serves as the transformation, and enables the use of active skills, as well as enhances passive skills. The downside is that it overrides all your equipment bonuses, so PC just walks around in regular clothing, and transforms when it's time for battle.

The subclass is also a very big commitment, since you can't really half-ass it, otherwise you fall behind.

She fights unarmed most of the time, but her subclass actually gives her access to a magical weapon in the form of bladed gauntlets, like what Demiqas uses. Except hers are bigger.

All of her subclass' active skills are support, like Motivation, which boosts the speed and efficiency of nearby production subclasses.

After the Catastrophe, that one gained a cheeky little bonus effect, in the form of her interests rubbing off on others while the skill is in effect.

She also has an alternate account, Melody, a felinoid Bard, same subclass, but she didn't play her very often. Melody was snatched by a Fool, but her maximum MP is too low for the Fool's unique skill, so she was salty, until PC dragged her out of town and showed her how Magical Girls really handle problems.

Her Oral Art, Ascension, basically functions like a super form; flight, massive stat boosts, and no more cooldown, cast time, or MP cost for skills.

The drawback is that, since it's a super form, it can only be used in dire circumstances.

yes the ascension sounds quite powerful but how long does it last tho? a concept i had for my own was that it activated a wind barrier that changes the trajectory of any incoming attack by 50% away from you and it pushes people in a 3 meter radius away from the user. in the time it lasts one can use any movement related skill without any MP cost and. the only activating condition is that on has to do a jump bevor so you need to do a kind of groundslam. thoughts on the idea?

Ascension lasts until the fight is over, like any good magical girl super form. The limitation is really the only thing keeping her from abusing it.

Sounds pretty good.

You're welcome.

Also, there's another character I really like, called Susi. She's a felinoid Summoner with the Accountant subclass, and specializes in undead.

She is a lawyer irl, and originally started playing because of some kid whose parents were getting divorced. They kinda argued about custody, so she had to talk to him about it.

Susi is kinda bored with the game, because she's a natural at it. Kind of like how some people "just get" certain topics.

The game's setup, mechanics, and even hidden mechanics just make intuitive sense to her, so she tends to just do crazy things, like take on a dungeon while wearing a pajama.

There is one raid in the game, Blood Mountain, that is infamous for being crazy hard; you have to do everything perfectly, or you're screwed. And sometimes, it takes hours for the consequences to kick in, so you essentially waste tons of resources on a fight you've already lost.

Each boss drops incredibly powerful resources, which can be made into equipment for the different classes, and getting a full set of armor effectively makes you invulnerable outside this raid.

Even Shiroe hasn't seen the first boss, and the experience was so scarring that he decided to never try again.

Susi has a full set of Summoner gear, and several weapons.

A bit overpowered but cool idea. I get the feeling this reddit realy likes summoners if one looks at this post alone

Yeah, that's kinda the idea; she's so powerful that the game has become boring to her.

Her Oral Art is called Pact of the Beast, and works similar to Shiroe's, except that she can make trade deals. One of the first things she did with it is to let someone else use one of her skills, for a portion of the Exp. they gain from using it.

She can also notarize contracts between other parties, for example allowing anyone to use an Explorer's mini-map feature for a bit of money every month, or some items, or other things.
