Plot-You are a student training your magical abilities at a school.

Please bare with the horrible title and plot(And this too if your joining). This is a battleclub(on account of me being unable to make a plot that goes along with a game to save my life) and as such will mainly involve fighting. But will also involve a story mode too most likely.

Name- duh...
Age- duh...
Gender- Male or Female

Magic Specialty-
Balanced- All magic types are the same.
Quick- Thought/Gesture magic is strengthened, and occassionally may get cast for free. Other spell types are weaker slightly.
Speech- All spoken magic is increased, yet others are less effective.
M. Item- All channelling spells are stronger, and magic items regain 1CP per fight. All other spells however are weaker.
Ritual- All magic done with a song, or dance are improved. Other spells are weaker. Ritual type spells may be altered some when casting to change the effects some, although it weakens other effects of the ability when used.
Drive- Drive magic is stronger, and gains overdrive faster. Other spells are less effective, yet not as much as more specialized classes.
Runic- Magic done with either paint or pen(drawing and writing...) are stronger. Other spells are weaker. Runic Specialists may try to make runes, which allow them to cast a spell at will.

Stats
Out of 800- HP/MP
Out of 500- Attack, Defense, Intelligence, Resistance, Speed.(I hope I don't need to explain these...)

Ways to Cast Magic
Thought/Gesture- Extremely fast casting. Most are either very weak, or somewhat strong, but have a demanding MP cost.
Spoken- A basic spell, fairly quick compared to most.
Chant- An improved spoken spell. Lasts several turns for low MP costs if the chant remains unbroken.Spell can either start on first turn, or second. The more the time required to cast, the stronger it is.
Channelling- A spell cast through an item. Mostly used by more physical based fighters as it still allows them to use their strength. Power of spell depends on the item the spell is channelled through. Most channeling spells are just attacks. Items have 25% channeling damage, magic ones have 50% unless specified.
Song/Dance- Most similar to a chant, in that it can last several turns. The effects are mostly weak, yet usually effect several people at once. Songs require an instrument to be most effective, and dances may fail if too slow.
Drawing/Writing- A very slow to cast spell, yet once it is originally made, it can be recast or continue constantly as long as drawing/writing remains intact. Requires something to make it with, and something for it to be made of/placed on.
Drive- A spell based on the pure emotion, uses a gauge that builds based on damage taken. Effect boosts by the power of the gauge. Once it reaches 100% the best version of the spell is reached, and may be cast for free. (If using Drive moves, list its effect, AND its effect at 100% if it changes)

Umm... Two things
1) You start with the type of magic based on your specialty. In your case you start with- 500gp, any 2 spells, and 3 thought/gesture spells.
2)Your supposed to have spells. As of right now your character lacks any abilities at all.

Other than that your character is okay.

Okay... I have all of your characters... But...
Andre- I'm not sure what type of character you want. You Put your magic specialty as Quick, yet later on you seem to switch to Drive... Also, you should have 4 or 5 moves based on your Magic Specialty, depending on what one you take. Also... when you make your spells, please specify The way the spell is to be cast.

PT- You went 50gp over. I'm guessing you'll want to keep either the buckler or Small Mirror, so get rid of one and your good.

Change these things and I'll update you into the stat topic.
