This is an RP im setting up, please leave comments, suggestions, or sign up below.
The world of Fursania is in danger, for it is being attacked by darkness, the darkness is pure evil and able to corrupt living beings and turn them into evil minions. The beings of the human/fursona world donnt know about the darkness, now when some people learn about the darkness they must fight it or let the world be taken over.
(Cliche I know but I think I could add some twists to make it un cliche)Now for the character sheets.

Age:12
Story:Alex was once a normal kid but at the age of eight he got into a fight with an evil wolf pack. He wouldve lost the fight and died but he happened to try to hit a wolf with two strange blue rocks. The rocks unleashed magical power that fried the wolves with fire magic. Afterwards he went home but was cast out because of his newfound magic abilities he embedded the rocks into a pair of gloves and whenever he wears the gloves he can use magical power. He studied magic and learned some new spells but to his young age he is unable to be very powerful.

Name: Jackal Cahill
Species: Egyptian Mau
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Story: Orphaned at an early age, Eric grew up on the streets of one of the larger towns of Fursania. He worked for shopkeepers to earn payment for food, and got into more than one scrap with other street kids and gangs. He even fought an insane jackal once... which gain him his nickname, Jackal. Now, at 16 years old, Eric still helps around town, but has been accepted a bit more by the community. But if there's trouble, he will do his best to be right in the thick of it, helping to cease the chaos.
Appearance: Mix This... (http://www.photomazza.com/IMG/jpg_Mau_Egiziano_c_Giuseppe_Mazza.jpg)
With this... (http://goldensun.nintendo.com/mobile/img/characters/character-matthew.png)
And add this... (http://cdn100.iofferphoto.com/img/item/163/803/043/qJhckfjjY4vPf7z.jpg)
And you get Jackal.

Name: Rachel Mianis
Species: Tiger/human mix
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Story: Rachel has been a thief on the streets since she was little, learning how to survive from the people in bars around the town. She doesn't tell much of her life to others, even the closest friends.
Appearance: Mostly human, with large ears and a fluffy tail. She has long fur over most of her body.
Fighting Style: Quiet, assassin-esque, with two knives. She's likely to steal an opponent's weapons in battle though and use them against the enemy. Unpredictable in her execution.
Even if the original person is gone, I'll start this. It looks promising.
-
Name :Elizabeth Shadowhawlk
Age:18
Gender:Female
species: persian cat
Story: Elizabeth was raised in a rich town. she was well accustomed to the lavishness and luxury that money could buy. she has always hated and mocked the "lower classes" but little did she know that Karma had it in for her.a few days after turning 17 her family was brutally murdered and she was the only one that survived. for a few months she furiously tried to protect the house and all the worldly possession's within its wall that she held so deer. though with in a few months she had to be forcefully removed from the property...she had become what she had most mocked and despised. she managed to collect a group of usefull street people and reigns supreme over a small group. anything she wants they do without hesitation nor question. once she sets her sights on something you'll be hard pressed to deter her.
appearance: slender and considered a beauty she is 5'8'' with dazzling white fur. the fur has tinges of silver undertone. one eye is a lavish dark green while the other is a light ice blue. she takes pride in her appearance and doesn't look like she lives in the streets. Be wary though,,, Looks can be deceiving... though she looks innocent and helpless.. she would not hesitate to kill you when your back is turned, or if you have something she wants.
fighting style: she is very sly and cunning, a wonderful natural borne assassin. if you let your guard down she wont hesitate to kill you... unless she sees something she likes.

-
you'll be fine. go ahead and post. she wont mind.
-
Wait... we started?
O_O
-
haha yes we did.. .-..- lol
-
And I've decided... to stalk Aldrea. X3
-
-pounces on and pins growling- no one stalks aldrea .. -laughs- no one but me that is. XD now lets stay on gameplay talk ;)
-
Let me rephrase that... Jackal's following Aldrea.
-
...Same here...
-
Not for long....
-
gha! time zones suck, while i'm passed out for the night you lot are all up and posting XD
-
im so sorry about that,
-
don't be XD if i'm not really woried i'd have properly complained rather than just sugested a way to possibly fix the problem, and it's not like i got left behind, i hadn't even woken up ^-^
-
Sorry Serp. Where do you live anyway? I assume Europe?
-
sydney australia XD
-
Wow! :D Do you go to the beach often?
(I'm in PA, USA.)
-
that is epic! i live 10 miles away from aldrea ^_^ :3
-
Is this roleplay still open for members? If so, how many characters are allowed (unless it's strictly for your main fursona)?
-
It's open, but you have to post regularly.
Two to three total, including your fursona.
-
I'm all for you joining, Sammi. We're always happy to have more RPers....
-
It's open, but you have to post regularly.
Two to three total, including your fursona.
Okay, thank you! Expect forms soon... -ish. It may be a while; fellow roleplayer friends that I know have razzed me about taking too long to develop my characters, haha.
-
It's cool, take your time.
-
remember please keep one line chatter to a minimum, if you want, rp a little of it out in chat then have one of you post it as a joint operation instead of
so and so : blah blah
the having this post
other person: blah.
please do this
Main person: talking person1
talking person 2
talkking person1
or something to that effect it will cut down on the small lined chatter.. please, if that is not available to be done..... PLEASE PLEASE be a Little more descriptive..... again to cut back on the one lined posts. love you all just try to keep that in mind no ones perfect but lets try to keep this running smoothly. ;) maws.
(and i myself am NOT exempt from this rule I'm learning to do this as well. I'm getting better though )
-
Cif, White-Heart, I shouldn't have to say this. IF YOU'RE IN A SCENE, THERE BETTER BE A REASON. Guys, I don't mind you there. I don't mind if you show up. BUT MAKE IT PLAUSIBLE. If you happen on the scene, have a reason for going there. And "Sixth sense" doesn't count. For anyone.
You also have to LENGTHEN YOUR POSTS. Kaya said she already warned you about this Cif, and I don't know about you White-Heart. Kaya is second in command, and if she emails you, there's a problem. Listen to her. Roleplays need to be fun, engaging, and not tedious to read through. One and two sentence posts don't fly, and detract from it as a whole. Lengthen your posts.
White-Heart, this is your first warning. Two left before you're booted.
Cif, this is your second warning. One left before you're booted.
HEED THE WARNINGS YOU GET. THEY COME BACK TO BITE.
-
Aww.... that sucks....
Hmm... maybe I should look and wait before I post...
-
....sorry....I'll be more careful....
-
It's okay WH. I just don't want this to keep happening. Try to go back and lengthen your posts. You aren't adding enough to them to tell me what you're doing. Are you hiding? In the open? In the building? Watching through the window? Standing? Crouching? Comfortable? Uncomfortable? Are you nervous? Confident? Wary? Downright scared? You both need to include these details, and then some. Reading through a roleplay should be akin to reading a book. You want to know the characters, the setting, the story. You can't do that if there's nothing to go on. It'd be like a comic with only light grey stick figures and speech bubbles. There's nothing to pull you in. Add to your posts guys. It helps everyone.
-
cif.. the club apearing isnt pratical. its like saying that i pulled a seven foot sowrd out of a miny skirt and it was 'magically' conciled. you cant keep trying to stop all the conflict. a GOOD STORY NEEDS CONFLICT. without it the story will fall flat and begin to become cumbersome and will DIE. so please, dont end fights that quickly. it is a serious roleplay killer. -_-
-
Um... what club?
Well... I see your point. If you want I could change my post so that the fight continues.
-
You pulled a club out of your sleeve Cif. You changed it already, but You're still grating my nerves in this scene. You've made it so no one can touch you. Cif, you either need to include that you're wearing something EARLY, or ignore the urge to put it in period. You're becoming a Boring Invincible Hero, the definition of godmodding. That Mithril shirt? It makes you virtually invincible. This isn't hard. Don't drop things on the players like this. Let us know before you say you have something (The breastplate) so it doesn't come off as "ZOMG Haha, I had my invincible (Enter name of object) all along! You didn't notice? Haha, NOOBS." That is often what it comes off as.
At this point, I have no idea where you are, What happened, or where I am in relation, so I'm unable to post.
Serpington, This goes for your sword too. If you have something that you can't sheath in your sleeve (4-6") or smaller (4" or less), it needs a description before hand. Otherwise, it tends to come off as the reast of the players being completely blind to their surroundings.
This won't count on strikes. It will if I have to reiterate this. It applies to everyone, so if I do it as well, point it out.
-
sorry, it didn't occure to me to mention whats in the bag i carrys all the time, well all thats in it is that blade and four smaller ones no larger than a foot long each. the only other weapon i carry is the small dagger that i've already mentioned.
-
thanks guys. it helps. a lot.
-
Thanks Serpington. It really does help others adjust and sets a good example. It's really just foreshadowing, and Chevok's Gun, to help ready others.
As a note, Rachel doesn't carry any weapons except a two inch knife in her bag. Mostly just for distraction injuries.
-
Cif, I'm not going to change the post, simply because it's of very little consequence. You have said it was a knife, so unless you change all of them to sword, I'm not going to change the terminology. The pants-ing was purely to have a laugh.
As a note, where would you get a sword in 1800's England as a rouge? Gyrus prefers a knife because he likes to leave people alive to "Play" with them. A sword would really only be accessible from a museum. Pirates had a sword from thievery, but it was mainly from merchant ships. If it were your father's, was it something he stole? Earned?
This is a bit minor, especially since the setting changed. I just want to know.
-
Again, since Jackal didn't really know his father, he's not sure how his dad got the sword.
And I did change them all to sword. The shamshir is a type of sword.
Plus, it's an RP, so there doesn't really have to be a reason for everything to a certain point. Swords are among that point, ESPECIALLY in 1800 London, England, Furzania.
Plus, you would have totally lost your storyline if you took that knife. Gyrus wouldn't have anything of importance to Jackal, because the thing returns to its owner. (I put that knife in every RP I'm in... mostly. It's unloseable.)
Finally, I've been saying Furzania because you have to obey the first post. Even if you restarted it yourself, you can't make a major change like that. Just saying.
Oh, and to clear up the mithril shirt thing, I was going to mention it before hand, but things happened and I just had to put it in all of a sudden.
But seriously... the pantsing thing was WAY too far, and it was NOT funny. I would have preferred something like drawing a mustache on Jackal's face. The pantsing thing wasn't funny, it was crude and just out of character context. Plus, you can't really pants a guy who's lying on the floor.
-
Is there a good 'group' for me to join, because I'm rather interested in this RP.
I'm assuming that the author of the OCC has yet to show up since the rp was started, but only because I've skimmed through the serious rp pages and only seen one post in his OCC.
I digress...
I would like to throw my own character in, who resembles this... (Without the artificial left forearm.)
(http://images.wikia.com/berserk/images/a/a6/Gattsfull.jpg)
-
its fine with me and aldrea has the final say. and cif, serpitne and danny (one of aldreas characters) are on the 'good' side. right now gryus is a fill in, tabitha and Elizabeth are the only 'evil' ones.
-
You're welcome to join. :) Do you have a fair idea of what happened so far?
As for Cif, I'm not going to argue on this. However, I will say this. Cifero, you do NOT know Gyrus, do not presume to. If it were out of character context, I WOULD KNOW. Saying you know him better than I would deems me a fool, and I will not be a happy camper if you confirm that.
As well, that is a weak, stupid excuse. If you had had the shirt at the beginning, you should have MENTIONED it in the narrative. It doesn't matter what's going on if it's critical to a scene. ARMOR IS CRITICAL.
"Plus, it's an RP, so there doesn't really have to be a reason for everything to a certain point." It's a serious roleplay. No, not every little thing should have a point, but serious roleplays should read like books: Pointless crap bogs down the narrative like a truck tied to a rabbit. It also nulifies your argument against the pants-ing. It's a pointless, silly act I figured would add a bit of humor to an otherwise rather dark story. It didn't, I'm not changing it. Not to mention, I've gotten my pants off on the floor, so it is BEYOND possible. End of discussion.
-
and cif. aldrea is the boss of this rp. please dont ruin it fvor your self and end up getting booted from yet ANOTHER of our roleplays....
-
Which you will be if you continue to act as you have. This is your last warning.
-
You're welcome to join. :) Do you have a fair idea of what happened so far?
Lets see...
Cif lost his father's sword, and was promptly humilated because Gyrus is a jester as well as a 'superior' fighter.
Some form of punishment is occurring to danny(?) while cif is recovering from the battle, and serp brought cif into a green house so he wouldn't be left on the streets while he was recovering.
How far off am I?
-
danny has know idea who tabitha and i are.. i my self am not too sure wat aldrea has in mind XD
other than that u r prity much correct
-
Very well, though I do have something to say about pulling down the pants of cif's character: Your character was knocked unconscious because not only were you fighting someone who was probably an important character to the STORY, but you were also taking him lightly by letting him have the first strike and you were wielding a weapon, which is not part of your character's fighting style.
In summation, Gyrus thought you were a joke, and he didn't kill you because he didn't think you were a real threat. Prove him wrong the next time you meet, by using the style that is on your character sheet, rather than trying to play swordsman
Name: Jacob 'Jak' Lazerus
Species: Dragon (Black scales)
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Story: Max was once a researcher and historian of magic, writing down notes on new forms of magic, as well as the history through scrying and divination spells. Some time during his research, he heard a voice in his study that came from nobody and no single direction. This voice helped him with his research on magic, but it came at a price that he would only later realize he was paying.
He couldn't remember the passage of time from then to now, but he knows he stopped his research and was now trying to find some entity named "Darkness".
Appearance: Armor is included.
(http://images.wikia.com/berserk/images/a/a6/Gattsfull.jpg)
Weapon: His ironically named broadsword "Dragon Slayer"
(http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2010/337/1/5/berserk___dragonslayer_1_by_ootman-d345g1x.jpg)
Fighting Style: Fang of Terror, a supernatural and ancient style that uses full-strength swings that gain momentum when colliding against their opponent's defenses or flesh. Missed swings 'reset' the momentum and cause fatigue to the attacker. It can work with hand-to-hand, but is meant for two-handed weapons.

Well, frankly, we don't know if Gyrus is superior or not... but he IS an honorless jerk who cheated in a fight.

You know, on second thought, keep the pansing it had the right effect of totally pissing me off.
One question though, Aldrea... why did you decide to take off your pants while lying on the floor?
-

Thank you Crono. I couldn't have said it better myself. :)
Your profile looks good. Are you on Tabitha, Gyrus, and Elizabeth's side of the fight?
Post Merge: May 09, 2012, 09:22:00 PM
Well, frankly, we don't know if Gyrus is superior or not... but he IS an honorless jerk who cheated in a fight.
No such thing as cheating when you openly give a character first throw. Nor is there any form of cheating in a street match.
You know, on second thought, keep the pansing it had the right effect of totally pissing me off.
Good. You're starting to get the idea of how I feel when you decide you know more about something (Like a character) than someone who actually created said thing. Or when you start outright ordering people to do something, like taking the pantsing out.
One question though, Aldrea... why did you decide to take off your pants while lying on the floor?
It's easier when I'm trying to read in the coolest area of the room, or getting in and out of a sleeping bag.
-
Yeah... Jackal's pretty chivalrous, so he usually gives his enemy the first strike, but even after he made his own strike, in his view Gyrus still cheated and is a giant bastard for stealing the only thing he had of his father's.
-
Yea, I'll be with the 'evil' team.
Though I wonder how he will be introduced...
-
Perhaps Tabitha is headed your way for a "Favor"? To be honest, I'm still getting her story plotted out, so it's open to changes. XD
At Cif:
Oh, he is a bastard in all ways. I'm not gonna sugar coat that. And I think he likes messing with you. New favorite toy in a way. Course, it helps motivation. :)
-
I was thinking that Max was in the carriage, just being very silent or asleep.
Though your suggestion is even more amusing X3

*Hugs Aldrea*
Sorry for talking back. Stubborness runs in my family, and sometimes my fuse is quite short.
And you're right... perfect motivation... almost a foil.
-
*Hugs back.* It's alright. I know the short fuse thing. I've gotten to the point of screaming at times. Just takes time. :)
-
You're right... thanks for understanding.
-
Uh, I think we may have a faint problem. Serpington's character is also named Max. Do you want to have the name still?
-
Wait, I thought my character's name was Jackal.
-
Uh, I think we may have a faint problem. Serpington's character is also named Max. Do you want to have the name still?
He is now Jacob, or Jak :P
-
Alright. :) Thanks.
-
O_O
Aw, derp... thought that question was for me...
-
I was just about to bring that up XD
-
Cif, I hate to keep addressing you, but something's turned up in the roleplay we need to straighten out.
For about three to five of your posts in a row, as well as others, you've contradicted yourself about the amount of training, practice, and overall skill you have with that sword. Very little makes sense in the current senario and with the background of your character. I need an explanation for all of it.
"Jackal shook his head. "No thank you, I'm not that hungry." He gently drew his knees up to his chest and rested his head on them. "Well, to tell you the truth, I don't really know how to use that sword well anyway. I just carry it around because... well, because it's something my dad touched... something he used." He looked up at Max. "Usually, I just use my dagger or the rapier that I got as a parting gift from the Spanish sword-master I trained under." He grinned. "He was one heck of a teacher... and a very chivalrous man. He helped me perfect my fighting style.""
"I don't really know how to use that sword anyway." Later on, as I'll bring up, you say you DO know how to use it, and don't bother to explain. That's not the most pressing issue though, not here. This is: "Usually, I just use my dagger or the rapier that I got as a parting gift from the Spanish sword-master I trained under." You said in your bio you are a street rat. Sword training, which is what a rapier is, takes time (Many, Many YEARS), money, patience, strength, and to have a master, connections.
A) You are sixteen. Sword training for knights, people training under a master, took from age seven to their early thirties. You would not be done with training. It would not be a parting gift if you aren't done.
B) You are a street rat. Money should be an issue for FOOD. A sword master is not top priority, and should VERY low on the list. You would have to either live with them, have a job AND live with them, or have a job, family, AND live with them. As you never said anything of living with them, I assume you didn't. You don't have a job anymore. Family's not an option. Master swordsmen, minus Obi-Wan, don't work for free for many many MANY years.
C) Patience is not something I can say much of. But again, it takes patience to have a job. You have mentions having a job, I admit, but it's implied in the past.
D) This goes back to food. You need a proper diet to be strong enough to weild a sword. You need a proper diet to fight period, at least convincingly. You are, again, a street rat. Most of the characters are. That means a proper diet doesn't always exist. Physical strength relies on a properly fed and trained.
E) I'll be lenient on the connections thing. It's not nearly as pressing as those issues. Did your mother or father know someone? If you can properly answer this, most of the other things fall into place. It would beg the question why you'd leave though.
Cif, please. Do a bit of research before you drop this on us. As for contradicting...
"Well, to tell you the truth, I don't really know how to use that sword well anyway."
You acted rather, OOC, capable before.
"Usually, I just use my dagger or the rapier that I got as a parting gift from the Spanish sword-master I trained under." He grinned. "He was one heck of a teacher... and a very chivalrous man. He helped me perfect my fighting style."
Oh? The problems with the teacher are listed above. And if you usually use these, why have they been COMPLETELY absent in bio and roleplay till it was convenient? I told you before. If you don't have it, don't add it without proper introduction. Danny doesn't have a gun, I wouldn't have her grab one from her bag with no explanation of where she got it and how she knows to use it.
"Oh, I never said I couldn't use it,"
Yes you did. You said you "can't actually use it anyway". I shouldn't have to tell you this.
"I'm actually rather good with it."
Look above. THOSE ARE YOUR WORDS. Two posts and you've managed to contradict yourself completely. Plus, a RAPIER master would not be able to teach you a SWORD. They are two fighting styles as different as bread and apple.
"I'm best with this though... rapier's second, the sword is the third."
Wanna back that us with text from your bio, the roleplay before you dropped it on us, or the OOC?
"As for the rapier, I can get nearly the same feel in battle with it as when I use my knife."
THIS IS THE VERY NEXT POST. CUT IT OUT AND CHOOSE. You can't be the best in everything Cif. It's called Godmodding, and while it hasn't been used AGAINST others, it's irritating and reads of you trying to eternally best everyone. Not only that, but it implies that, because we never knew of this before, LIKE THE MITHRIL SHIRT, you magically conjured it. It's called chevok's gun Cif. It's a way of keeping from Deus ex machina-ing things into a story and roleplay. Settle on one thing, deal with the consequences of your character's actions and the actions of others on you, and it will make you a better roleplayer in the end.
I really am tired of having to ask you to explain or tell me about things. I am. It's tiring for both parties and my nerves have already been destroyed by the cheese grater of sixteen hours in a car and having to do this so often. I'm not asking you to do everything different, I'm asking you not to continue doing things that I've warned you about, in this roleplay and others. A character must struggle to grow and learn. By giving your character everything it needs, not just to survive, but THRIVE AND OUTDO, Jackal has no need to learn or exercize any previous skills needed for living in a world where not everything is perfect. It doesn't fit the character you wrote in your bio.
As a note, your fighting style is hand to hand combat. You've yet to even attempt that. As Crono said a while back, use the technique you assigned. Don't make it a figure head to show that you're better than people think.
-
Okay, I'll erase all the rapier stuff and the swordsman stuff...
Um... that was a bit hurtful... :(
-
You don't have to erase it all. I'm asking that you try to tell us about having them before hand as well as try to fix it.
I don't mean to be hurtful. My nerves (And patience) have gone straight to hell in the past few days. Sorry. Very little sleep, homework, sixteen hours in a goddamn bus... Sorry.
-
I understand. *hugs Aldrea* Don't worry, I fixed it so that there's no rapier involved... although frankly, I must mention that the dagger is about the same length as a machete...
-
that reminds me, i'll tell you more anout max's magic before i put it into any posts
-
Alright. That'll be rather nice. That way it doesn't sneak up on anyone. :)
-
Still accepting?
-
If you post continuously, yes.
-
if you post at least twice weekly.. or was it three aldrea...?
-
Preferably three at least. That way it continues at a decent speed. :) (Thankees Kaya.)
-
Oh my god...
You like, totally misread my char sheet.
-
Oh? How so? This is your sheet.
Name: Jackal Cahill
Species: Egyptian Mau
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Story: Orphaned at an early age, Eric grew up on the streets of one of the larger towns of Fursania. He worked for shopkeepers to earn payment for food, and got into more than one scrap with other street kids and gangs. He even fought an insane jackal once... which gain him his nickname, Jackal. Now, at 16 years old, Eric still helps around town, but has been accepted a bit more by the community. But if there's trouble, he will do his best to be right in the thick of it, helping to cease the chaos.
Appearance: Mix This...
With this...
And add this...
And you get Jackal.
Fighting Style: Khonsu's Moon Scarab Technique (Specialized energy and hand-to-hand fighting style)
This is your profile, minus the pictures. I did a bit of research on your "Technique" too. What game is that from?
You've yet to do anything with the energy segment, and it still begs the question of Who taught you. If it's a technique, you need a teacher. Cif, you said you lived on the streets most of your life. With everything you've said, you sound like you're from a wealthy family with access to anything you need and want to fight, not a street rat struggling to get money for food.
I know I set this in Fursania's London, but many of the things you've introduced have caused problems only after the first post, usually by introducing elements that don't make sense. I just want some good explanations. You don't have to take things out, just help make sense of them or fix them. Just tell me where in the world your character is from, how you were trained, and Who/where your parents were in society. You can message me in PM if you want some of it to be secret, but just answer these questions for me.
-
i no miss read. :) :P
-
Alright, I thought about. I'm believe this is going to be a great Rp to join.
Name: Tucker
Species: Beagle
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Appearance: Slim built, wears a white T-shirt, under a green jacket and brown cargo shorts. A black chain design tattoo, wraps around his neck. Carries a Bow and arrows.
History: Tucker stood out from his sibling as a nobody. He didn't care of what others think or did. He never had to express his feelings to others. Will he learn? After Tucker and his siblings went their own ways, Tucker found a crystal lying on the ground that seemed to give off energy. As soon as he touched the crystal he immediately fused with it. He passed out as they became one. When he awoken, a burning sensation on his neck area where the tattoo appeared.
Fighting style: perfers long ranged tactics (will go to hand to hand if needs to), little magic.
-
Have you read the roleplay posts enough to understand it? We're in 1800's London by the way.
-
We're in Furzania London 1800s, danny. It's acceptable. It was with mine, why not with his?
-
cif do NOT CONTRADICT HER! she IS the GAME MASTER! what she says GOES. if she wants the clothing to fit the time period I WILL HAPPEN. stop contradicting what people in charge of roleplays have to say. you do not know EVERYTHING nor do i claim to. it gets annoying as heck when people that have no idea what is going on ( speaking of how this rp is being run) say something that negiates what SOMEONE WHO DOES. cif. you do NOT control this RP therefore YOU DO NOT get to say what is approved/Acctable, nor deniable. that is up to the GAME MASTER who happens to be aldrea. -face paws-
-
Cif, you're booted. End of discussion.
Kaya gets your character. No buts.
-
Kay, are you going to get Jackal killed, because I did want to fight at least one of the 'good' characters :3
-
naw hes not going to die by my paws. but he can by urs if ay want. :3
-
That's harsh...
Yes I read, but I can't post until I know what they wear since I'm not able to see pictures on this phone, or till you modify it (if you want, but nothing silly please.) Is Bow and arrows okay for his weapon?
-
That's harsh...
You should read all the warnings he got :/
Well, then I guess I could 'retire' Guyrus.... but it's just not the same!
-
I actually have another character in mind that will need a proper death scene... ;)
-
Am I accepted or not?
-
I can send you some pictures of the dressing style, and while I'm not fond of the Bow and arrow, I'll let it pass. Once we get that sorted out, you'll be ready to go. :)
-
All I made was one minor comment. Nothing boot-worthy.
Cifero... read through the many arguments between you, Aldrea, and Kaya... I think this is her way of saying she doesn't feel like arguing with you anymore.
-
Alright. But one last thing...
And that thing is to figure out who gets my character.
-
Alright. But one last thing...
I give full control of my character to Joao.
Cifero, Aldrea gave it to Kaya...
If you have a problem with this, PM Aldrea, don't ADD to the arguments that almost 70% of this OOC is made of.
-
She actually can't.
-
Cifero - Accept the boot from the RP. Aldrea is allowed to do it, and no amount of complaining or arguing is going to make the situation better.
Aldrea and everyone else - Please respect Cifero's character in the RP. I don't care how many arguments any of you have gotten into in the past, there's no reason to do something that can be seen as offensive to Cifero.
Stop arguing, please.
-
Thanks, Zeph. *hugs Zeph*
-
Well, now I feel like a ****...
Kaya, Aldrea, care to not lead the orphan boy to his demise?
Cifero, if it is alright with you, I vote serpington to 'take control', since I rarely if ever, seen you two argue in OOC.
-
I agree, actually...
-
Sorry Zeph. Will do.
Cif, you may choose the person, but please don't bring in someone else. KoD had that problem. Let's not repeat.
(Thank you Chrono. *Hugs.* You have no idea how much that helped. :)
-
i wont. -face paws.- i was actually thinking of havin him along dfor a while and do some heroic deeds. ^_^ i feel like playing nice for a change. i dont meen to sound rude of offencive. -wanders off to find her meds.....- ok i have diffuciltu doin more than one character at a time... good thing u deligated Joa.
-
Yeah. I think he'd be a great choice.
-
I'll do my best with your character Cif.
Also I will remove the bow and replace it with magic techniques. You can Pm me the pictures so I may edit my form ASAP.
-
There aren't many pictures running around, however I can give you an idea through description and what pictures I did find.
Well to do: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Passer-payez-Boilly-ca1803.jpg (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Passer-payez-Boilly-ca1803.jpg) (I don't know how to put the pictures in the actual post...)
Well to do men and children usually wore high necked shirts, high waisted pants that stopped at the knee, high socks, and low shoes. They also usually wore top hats.
Poorer boys usually wore trousers and loose shirts. Again, There are few pictures for boys than girls.
-
Alright, I thought about. I'm believe this is going to be a great Rp to join.
Name: Tucker
Species: Beagle
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Appearance: Slim built, Tucker wears a white high collar shirt, under a green short jacket, and also wears light brown trousers and cap. A black chain design tattoo, wraps around his neck although he tries to hide it under his collar.
History: Tucker stood out from his sibling as a nobody. He didn't care of what others think or did. He never had to express his feelings to others. Will he learn? After Tucker and his siblings went their own ways, Tucker found a crystal lying on the ground that seemed to give off energy. As soon as he touched the crystal he immediately fused with it. He passed out as they became one. When he awoken, a burning sensation on his neck area where the tattoo appeared.
Fighting style: perfers long ranged tactics (will go to hand to hand if needs to), magic.
(Jackal can use close range sneaky magic , If I can change it please till he recovers that sword.)
-
Looks good.
It'd be preferable to have him learn it, but sure. It wouldn't make much sense to have him not use it when it would have helped.
-
Yeah... my fault there, sorry.
Perhaps, for Joao's sake, we could say that it totally slipped Jackal's mind in all the previous excitement or something?
-
Like with chanted spells? It'd probably take a fair amount of time to chant a spell as opposed to a sword.
-
Um... it was a knife he lost.
-
Cif, please don't go into this again. You asked me to change it before because you said it was a sword. Now your saying it's a knife. In the roleplay, you said both. Just please pick one.
-
Well... okay, knife. The one that belonged to his father. He still has his own knife and the sword, but he prefers using his father's knife in combat and is a bit saddened by its loss. He can still fight like before, but because of the loss, he can't fight as well because of the drop in his morale.
-
Thank you. That helps a lot.
-
*sighs* well can't say this is a generic story, after al the hero's are a lizard swordsman with nothing on the line either way, a poor kid who mainly wants his fathers blade back and possibly a stranger no one really knows if loao joins the good side.......sounds like team i wouldn't want to be counting on to save me and i'm one of them XD
-
Well this is how I see the story:
Jackal actually likes Rachel, but he never talk to her directly. So he puts on the tough guy personality since a street rat like himself, has to adapted this in order to survive. After learning Rachel getting kidnapped, and losing his father's weapon. Jackal must find a way to save her, but Jackal doesn't think he could do it alone. Jackal lies to the lizard sword man to convince him to join his journey to retrieve his father's knife, when in reality he trying to save the one he loves, Rachel, but his tough attitude makes him hold in the truth. And the cursed magician Joao, will also help along the way.
(Sorry if I just spoiled it. And FYI the story doesn't have to keep following this direct route.)
-
still, when you weigh up the competition......we do seem at least a little outgunned
-
((pst..... Elizabeth might not stay on the ''other side'' haha i always like to have the character that flips from one side to another. XD X3 -giggles- ))
-
I actually like that idea. ^_^ One thing to note. Do they know eachother from before or just from afar? Rachel and Jackel met before in the RP, but it wasn't for any length of time.
-
XD anything could happen in this Rp.
Let's reveal that secret in the Rp Aldrea.
-

:o
Wow. You should try writing books, that's pretty good. You know, I suppose you should go with that, I like it.
And to Aldrea... You're welcome.
-
Stop flattering me its embarrassing. 0///0
Nah I just want to Rp all day with you guys. It just boring writing a story yourself.
-
indeed it is.:) lul more fun with others.
-
^So true.
-
I'll try to make him less stubborn like you asked.
You wanted Jackal tough with a gentle side... hmm I'll try my hardest to perform a personality that matches, even though I never tried it before.
-
joao did you want me to wait for you to do any editing or am i right to post?
-
Go right ahead.
-

Alright. I might still give you a few pointers, though. I'm like that. ;)
-
um.....has the rp stopped or is somthing happening?
-
I don't know. I posted last, so I guess I killed Chrono, Kaya, and I's part.
-
no no you are fine. my character is just passed out in her room... :3
-
i'm waiting for joao
-
im going to be gone till next tuesday.. sorry i have to get up at 6 am and wont get home till 10 or so in the evening untill tuesday. not very much time to get online..
-
question, has anyone seen joao since June 01?
-
I sent him a message, but no, I haven't. He's gone AWOL. *Groan.* THIS is why I don't like new RPers taking up established characters. Said RPers have a bad rep with me for disappearing. Serpington, you can take up the characters if you want. He gets two more days before I work with Cif on another RPer. Just please no one else disappear. It's irritating.
-
i'll wait a little longer before getting them all to the doctors, but if i don't hear anything from him or no arangements are made i'll just leave them there, there's no way i'd be able to comfartably use two other players characters with my own.
-
ok, so looks like i'm on my own >_<
-
trying to find a replacement.. hopefully it will work out. ^_^
-
I hope I may join?
I'll fill in a ref. sheet asap.
-
how often are you on the forums?
-
On a regular basis, mostly every day. Always checking the replies and such :)
I'll warn people in general when I go on a holiday where I won't have internet for example.
-
that is great. i'll talk with aldrea and see if there is any room avaiable. :)
-
Neat ^^ I hope to hear from you as soon as possible :3
-
You're welcome to join if you stay active. :)
-
Ok, thank you :)
I'll join after I have had my exams, after 4th of July (I know, ironic) I'll be able to keep it up ^^
-
Ok, then, Zelt, I guess you can have my character for the time being, since Joao is MIA.
-
Mind if i join?
Name: Heretic
Species: Fox
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Story: Heretic was named Lexxi Cult, when at a very young ageshe was indocrinated into a group of hunters; beings that hunt the things that go bump in the night. Her adaptability for the arcane arts and for the crossbow causes her to be one of the top of her group. Now she looks for her own group of hunters to fight the darkness.
Appearance: Tall, cloaked black fox with underarmor. Long flowing white hair, sharp claws, and scars that form sigils of power all over her body, only noticable when you push her fur to one side.
Fighting Style: Manipulation of other's fighting styles (magic), long range sniping (crossbow)
-
Describe "Manipulation of other's fighting styles", just so there is no confusion at to what your character can and can't do while fighting.
-
Like redirection magic, counterspells, and illusions.
Post Merge: July 11, 2012, 03:20:08 AM
If i could summon arcane minions (like small size imp constructs made out of bone)
-
It looks good so far. You use manipulation? That could work. :) It's preferable you couldn't summon things though. Too many ways to undermine an opponent in too many ways. What side would you be on?
(Note: I'm not always active. Zelt can start posting.)
-
Fighting the darkness, but she toys with powers beyond her control, so she could easily be converted, but still, starting out as against the darkness.
-
Sorry guys, it's been hectic here the last couple of days. It's been very busy here lately, but I will mention when I'm able to RP and such.
Once again, apologies.
-
That's alright. :)
Good news: I'm letting Cif join back up under close watch. He'll be taking up Jackel again, so that end is secured. :)
Alyx, you're free to start posting. Remember to follow the rules though, and ask for help if you need it.
-
