    Well... fack. Makes my earlier post about no Saiyans look stupid, why don't you?
    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

    Well, I made an Android but uphold the naming scheme, because I didn't want her to name to be a number. So I decided to create my own naming scheme of them all being named after colors and their creator being named Rainbow.

    Of course, I could go with the 17 and 18's birth names scheme (being named after gemstones), but with the pictures I chose for them I'd probably just be making Steven Universe characters (only androids instead of gemstones with hard light construct bodies).

    Do shinjin even have naming schemes? No, seriously; I don't know. (Wiki was of no real help, but that's a wiki for you.)

    They don't have a consistent one where it comes to their real names (They're mostly referred to by their jobs.), but Kaioshins at least have a trend; most of them are named after important figures in mythology (Ea and Anat are gods for random examples), while Gowasu and Zamasu share a theme of being named after verbs that mean "to exist",

    Humans transform too, even.

    From living to dead.

    Do Demons even have those ?

    Like making her not look flat as a piece of paper.
    Maybe she's from the Paper Mario verse :3

    She turns into a Monkey.

    On the Full Moon. Like a Werewolf.

    Cuz it's a period joke.
    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    Inhabitants of the Demon Realm like Dabura yes. (Though they seem to have their naming scheme organized in factions rather than species.)

    Ogres/Onis, not so much because none of them are ever named in canon. The only two named in filler that I'm aware of (Goz and Mez) are named Cow-Head and Horse-Head respectively.

    Hm, well Ishtar is specifically from the Demon Realm. I should probably clarify that she's not an Ogre Oni, so much so as she is a Demon (Oni).

    I totally didn't follow the proper naming scheme, however. Though ... it's "Ishtar".

    Onis don't come from the Demon Realm though.

    Like, is there a particular reason you want to come from there?

    See, and this is where my somewhat crappy understanding of Dragonball rears it's ugly head.

    Ultimately I suppose it doesn't matter in the long term for her character. With the racial traits she has, and has been approved for however, might possibly make more sense ?

    I admit I'm a bit tired so I might be misreading your sheet, but inhabitants of the Demon Realm don't really have ties to nature. Their magic tends to revolve around mind control, time and darkness.

    (And puns about sauce, if Démigra is involved.)

    That reminds me, how much Dragon Ball knowledge do you have to have to actually participate in this RPG?

    Probably none? I can't imagine that Cleric will quiz us.

    I'm just a bit of a stickler for canon, which I think everyone already knows.

    There's canons. Also a PM that hopefully explains it a bit better !

    I mean, my knowledge of Dragonball is primarily "abridged". So you should be good if Cleric is letting me camp out here, still.

    Give me a bit of time to catch up on some sleep and I’ll respond to any PM’s and the like, plus respond to people's Characters, in the morning.
