Rise of the White Fang [Kakashi/DxD]

[Sophos]

Fuck it, this is happening.

First things first? I apologize for all of my other quests. Consider them dead. My motivation, as a whole, took a big hit when I had a bout of depression, and I can't seem to regain any enthusiasm for them. This quest, however? I swear to any and all gods that may or may not exist (And if they don't, then i swear on the unfathomable void that awaits the universe) that Quest shall not die. It might take me awhile to update, sometimes, but it won't die.

Second of all, I haven't actually read the LN's, just watched the Anime and read a lot of fanfics. I know the setting and quite a few characters, but quite honestly, not many fanfics get past the Three Factions Summit Arc. This quest starts in bit more than a year before canon, so I'm going to use the time from here to there to read up.

Lastly, updates'll come when they come but I'll try for at least once a week, if not every three days or so, but I usually can't keep that kind of pace up for long.
____________________________________________________________________________________________

You are Hatake Kakashi, 15 years old. Throughout your life you've been called many things. Prodigy. Genius. Cold. Intimidating. Unsocial. Lazy. Pervert.

In all honesty, you don't give you a shit. You'd always had a hard time caring, finding others your age insufferable, and even the same with quite a few adults. The only person you really respected was your father. Who was now about 9 years dead. Yeah, if you had to choose a moment where everything had changed, that was probably it. And you didn't just mean the general uncaring attitude you now sported, either. After your dad died, you started...noticing things. Weird things.

The humanoid shapes flying over head at night, some with wings like a bird, others with wings like a demonic bat. The odd little creature here and there, that sometimes roamed the night, playing mischievous tricks. Some people seemed to give off an odd aura that others didn't seem to notice. Others who walked in odd flowing robes, covered in strange symbols, unnoticed by those around them.

Of course, none of that was so prominent or obvious to you as your newfound ability. The one you had awoken that day.
Bah, that didn't really matter. What mattered was the fact you had been accepted into your new school, one that you had chosen to try and get into for it's high standards. Maybe people there wouldn't be so idiotic. They had to have passed the tests too, right?

Well, you thought, opening up your new volume of Icha Icha as you walked along, At least Kuoh Academy will probably have some decent eye candy.

  White Fang
  The Blade That Eclipses The Sun​
  Spoiler: White Fang V1

  A small, immaterial blade, formed by drawing light from surrounding areas. As in, all light, leaving something of a shadowy void from where that light came from. The Darkness is magical in nature and only the user of White Fang can see through it. Anyone else inside of the shadowy void or outside of it, can only see the blade of light. The Light Blade made from White Fang has the same properties as the Light Weapons used by Angels and Fallen, and is extra effective against Devils and Unholy Creatures. In the same vein, however, if the user is skilled enough, they can take the Light Spells or Weapons made by even Angels and Fallen and use it to empower their own blade.

Misc. (I.e, Info/Journal Section)
Plot: The Murder of Sakumo Hatake - Find out who killed your father. (Progress 0/100)

Plot: Red Dragon Emperor - Figure out what the odd vibe Hyoudou Issei gives off is. (Progress 0/100)

Plot: Magic and Sorcery at Kuoh Academy - Someone or Something knows magic at your new school. Find out who or what. (Progress 0/100)

I'll be listing people and creatures you meet here, as well as small bits of lore. Oh yeah, and I'll be playing with powerlevels a bit, because I know some enemies in canon are kind of pathetic.

Spoiler: Mechanics

Mechanics: We'll be working on D100s. The majority of rolls will be based on Stats. For ever point in a stat beyond 1, you get +5 to a relevant roll.

Skills are much the same, except they're based on a scale of 1-15 and get a +5 for every 3 points in that skill, on top of a relevant Stat Bonus.

In Stats, if you go over the 5 point limit, then the 6th point does not give you another +5. Instead it gives a reroll in case of a failure.

As an example, you come across a skill check for Int, so you'd Roll 1d100+20. If it fails, then you'd be able to reroll because have 6O in Int.

For a skill roll, the same applies, but also add your Skill Modifier. So, for a Magic Roll, which is Int based, you'd roll 1d100+25, reroll 1 failure.

Generally that seems to fit the sort of "Fragile Speedster" archetype Kakashi has going for him in general (especially in early Naruto), if these are WoD style stats - especially if we take Raikiri, which would presumably not scale off strength, considering its main schtick is the piercing power it has.

We don't really need swordsmanship if we're using a lightning fist as our weapon of choice, but we still want at least one combat skill. Stealth fits a guy who's not particularly sociable, like Kakashi, Perception is just generally awesome, and so's Investigation.

Kakashi, the intellectual charmer. A human who is just so smart and charismatic he could walk into an enemy compound and come out with all their secrets and half of them with broken hearts from him leaving. Really it's setup for that, perception, magic, lore, and investigation all go really well with the high int and cha stats setting him up for the human that could charm or trick anyone. That and magic should scale off either int or cha in large part for when combat or a bit of supernatural aid is needed.

You screwed up your stats, you get 11 points to spend to boost things above 1 but you spent 13. You'll need to sacrifice at least two points to make the build viable.

 

[Sophos]

So, question on mechanics for you guys.

Would you rather go for using most d100s, or having to get a certain amount of successes on Xd10?

 

[Xilph]

Using d100s are generally easier and less complex for you to manage as the probabilities are very simple, Xd10 with successes are much more complex from a probability standpoint but can be interesting as well. They scale better to very high values as well, personally I vote for d100s though, the simplicity trumps I believe as the basic model of 1d100+X with a result depending on that is very easy to understand and explain, Xd10 with at least Y rolls over N is much more confusing and you're more likely to do something too hard or too easy without some number crunching.

So yeah, d100s for my vote. I wouldn't mind too much though.

[Sophos]

Added who exactly you're descended from for Human and fallen angel, too, since they were there for Hanyo and God-blooded.

You didn't think Human was going to be normal did you?

 

[kinglugia]

Emrys? As in Mryddin Emrys? THAT Merlin? Oh my, interesting, indeed.

 

[Xilph]

Yeah I can recognise that name, although interestingly apparently in DxD uses the other common name for Merlin with Merlin Ambrosius as opposed to the Welsh name of Myrddin Emrys. Just a minor note that shouldn't matter but technically could if they were trying to pull one over us.

I'm sticking to my lazy human plan though, all that strength, dexterity and stamina is much more exercise and effort so unneeded. The prodigy of the mind and the tongue perfectly meshes with with the magic and the heritage of humanity, a human that could challenge even the devils themselves with their silver tongue and masterful wit given some experience. For any who can navigate the careful social traps and manipulation to actually challenge them can discover that they can hold their own perfectly fine with some fearsome magics beyond the scope of near any human ever known. We would be the beguiler and the manipulator, the diplomat and the wizard, the scholar and the leader, we would be the best. That and having max cha and int would be hella useful given demon summoning thing that's going on, much easier if we can charm everyone as combat is much more effort for much less reward in nearly every case.

Anyone else feel like explaining why they chose the way they did? I'm interested.

So, details: White Fang is a small, immaterial blade, formed by drawing light from surrounding areas. As in, all light, leaving something of a shadowy void from where that light came from. The Darkness is magical in nature and only the user of White Fang can see through it. Anyone else inside of the shadowy void or outside of it, can only see the blade of light. The Light Blade made from White Fang has the same properties as the Light Weapons used by Angels and Fallen, and is extra effective against Devils and Unholy Creatures. In the same vein, however, if the user is skilled enough, they can take the Light Spells or Weapons made by even Angels and Fallen and use it to empower their own blade.

God-Blooded of Kuebiko: You are a descendant of the minor kami, Kuebiko, a god of Wisdom, Knowledge and Agriculture. The divine blood in your veins, while not the equal of a Demi-god, does give you a minor resistance to dark and shadow based attacks. From kuebiko himself, you gain another +O to Int, minor skill with Lore and and affinity to Plants. The +O, being supernatural in nature, breaks the normals limits of a human giving you Int: 6.

As for skills, will someone please roll me 4d50, no modifiers?

We already have a Plant Affinity in our character sheet so I choose wood and earth that synergies with our plants. Choose healing so we will always be able to heal ourselves. Fire, I just choose fire because I remember that huge fireball madara used and I want kakashi to try that. Rune magic so we can seal beings if we skilled enough.

I'm trying to stick with the fact that we're a Kakashi expy, hence my lightning, shadow and illusion choice. The rest I don't care about.
