Well, as long as he's not impersonating a Rose it'll be fine

Then where will the symbolism of him trying to make himself a rose out of jealousy be? Could you at least try to compromise here?

I wanted the characters played to be strictly Rose members, I'm already compromising by allowing you to create a non Rose member. You can create an impostor if you wish, though the group would just end up killing them. It's a very strict law, which I now realize I don't have in the R overview. Must have left it out when I rewrote it D: Sorry.

Okay. I guess I can just have the guy incessantly complain about it... In a funny way, not an annoying way, of course. Also, I guess, thank you. And do I still get the white rose with this character, or can I still only have one character?

You can make both

Well, I'm glad all of that is finally resolved. I'll post the character sheets shortly.
Name: Karin Utake
Race: Fancy human/fairy (her mother was a fairy, and her father was human)
Age/Gender/Appearance: Female, 16. Quite short. Long Brown hair. Blue-green eyes. I think petite is the appropriate word here.
Color of Rose: White
Personality: Happy-go-lucky. A bit extravagant at times.
Abilities: Rose ability: 'Charge'. She can charge anything she touches (with a few exceptions, such as living creatures and the ground) with energy to temporarily enhance it, or give it a new attribute, such as exploding on impact. 'Charge's effects last only twelve seconds, however, and can be quite draining with overuse.
Other ability: She fights using a pack of playing cards that she can control with her mind. The different numbers and letters represent different attributes to the cards; 2 - 10 all have the same effect, and grow in size after being activated, the higher number representing larger size. The aces can cut through almost anything, but wear out quickly. The Jack summons a relatively weak warrior made of magic that is under her control. The Queen fires an energy beam that has a range of about 100 metres. The King causes whatever it touches to disintegrate or explodes on impact. The Joker creates an illusory clone of her. Each card's effects last for 6 seconds, but can all be improved using her rose power. Also, she can use any pack of cards for this, because her power is what gives them power. She can use more than one card at the same time, but doing so is extremely draining.
History: As a kid, she always loved magic tricks, and her dream was to become some sort of magician, entertaining many people with her card tricks. However, her father denied her from her dream (her mother had died during childbirth) and refused to let her even buy a pack of cards from the market. It wasn't long before she decided to leave at night from her house and go to the market secretly, to buy a pack of cards. When she returned to her house, it was in ruins, and her dad was in the clutches of a monster, half dead. In rage, she attacked the beast, instinctively using the cards she had just bought in a way she hadn't even thought possible until then, killing the monster. But it was too late; her father had been mortally wounded, and the last words he said to her were this: "Don't cry, my dear, everyone must die someday."
That night, she was chosen as the white rose.
Name: Aster Orihara
Race: Fancy Fairy(about 23%/vampire(about 56%)/Dragon(about 21%)
Age/Gender/Appearance: Around thirty, but looks about 18. Male. Tall. Black hair. White eyes. Lithe. Quite good-looking.
Color of Rose: None.
Personality: Narcissistic, but funny and good-natured.
Abilities: Has wings that are normally hidden, and are more leather than feathery. Capable of turning parts of his skin hard and scaly. Sometimes distracted and weakened by his urge to drink blood and/or hunt things. Capable of breathing fire, but it takes a lot of effort and is quite draining. Fights using swords, but capable of growing temporary claws and/or spikes to fight with. Stronger and faster than any mortal human. All of his transformations are painful. Capable of some simple magic. Also capable of turning almost fully into a Dragon, but it's a very painful and tiring process. Has excellent sight, smell and vision. Gets tired relatively easy and has to eat a lot of food and sleep a lot of the time. Sunlight is painful to him, and removes a lot of his natural enhancements such as strength and smell, and immobilized completely in strong sunlight. Because of his Dragon and vampire blood, he can gain strength by drinking the blood of, and/or eating monsters, but he finds the taste disgusting, and wouldn't do it unless absolutely necessary.
History: because he was so different to everyone, he was labelled as a freak, got given up by his parents at birth and was an outcast of society for most of his life. As such, he ended up obsessed about the legends of the roses, and devoted his life to trying to become one. To his dismay, this desire was not granted. However, he decided to devote the rest of his life to fighting evil anyway, travelling the world to find and kill the monsters that plague it.
Updates:
Update 1: Aster Dragon: When Aster becomes injured, he can cave in to his draconian blood and eat the meat of a monster, turning fully into a Dragon and losing control. Aster Dragon is pretty much only interested in one thing; food. However, if someone attacks him he will fight back. Currently, the only known way to reverse the transformation is to let Aster Dragon eat his fill and fall asleep.
Update 2: Aster's flashback: a long time ago, Aster went to Rosewood Academy, where he was tormented and bullied, being treated and labelled as, amongst others, a freak, a crybaby, and a loner. After three years of this, he cracked, and the first of his draconian powers came to the fore, causing him to breathe fire and kill the boy who bullied him. In shock and guilt, he ran away and never turned back.
Update 3: Aster Fairy: If Aster is threatened whilst unconscious or sleeping, his Fairy instincts will take the fore, causing him to sprout luminescent wings and gain a bright aura. Aster Fairy is also capable of unleashing accurate rapid-fire beams of energy.

In the spoiler below is another picture of her; please pretend that those 'things' in her hair are in the above photo as well.
Name: Bianca F.
Race: Fancy Human/Mage
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Color Of Rose: Orange
Personality: Not exactly stone-hearted, but strong-willed and a bit concealing of certain emotions.
Abilities: Bianca has the ability of, well, magic, however she needs to exchange an item in order to receive the ability/set off the reaction (Think something along the lines of Full-Metal Alchemist). Before, items had to be, or at least be close, to equal exchanges, but thanks to her acceptance as a rose, any item (no matter its size) can be exchanged for any power. Bianca carries a brown satchel filled with various tradable items, and along with these items she also carries an assortment of vials infused with different potions.
History: I was going to leave this as 'To Be Revealed', but if it needs to be done, just let me know.

History doesn't have to be told, though that would mean you're probably fairly new to the Roses, if no one knows anything about you yet. Also, don't forget that while you have the Roses power, you're fairly powerful, which may effect the exchange rate of items to magic

I edited her abilities a bit to accommodate towards her rose... Also, I can't think of a good bio for her, which was why I was going to leave it blank until I thought of a good one (if that's ok?). xP

Like I said, she would just have to be fairly new to the group for no one to know anything
But it's accepted

Ah! So sorry @TheJipan Totally read and meant to reply to your toons. They are good
Don't forget though, until the Roses power wanes, the non-Rose will be considerably weaker than the others. Also, how do you plan to have the non-Rose join the group? Or how would you like them to join?

I was thinking something along the lines of Aster coincidently finding the same monster as one or more of the roses, and things happening that way. Also, Aster is only stronger than mortal humans. He is weaker than any rose, and not even as strong as some non-humans. Also, thank you.
