I think it's interesting, but I am waiting on more people.

I'd be interested if we got enough players and perhaps a bit more of a centralized plot. Do you have anything in mind?

Yeah guys, my notifactions are jacked up! Didnt realize there was any interest! But yes there is a plot in play and i have plans to develop it when you guys are ready to play. It centers around a certain treasure that brings fame and fourtune to any who find it! Thus explorations must take place around each main city to add another piece to the puzzle

I'd be a bit more curious myself if I knew what the true 'setting' is, such as what era of technology or what realm of fantasy are we working with? Also, what 'restrictions' to equipment/abilities would each character have in relation to this setting?

I'd also be interested.

Me too. On second thought, I probably shouldn't because I need to get my offline life taken care of. Depends on how fast of a pace it will go.

Post by: Xavier Akafur on January 11, 2016, 03:45:47 AM
Personally, I think that's probably enough interest to merit a thread :p


So what's the setup? Would it be appropriate to play a law man, or are we going to be more of a law-less type of group?
Title: Re: Exploration: Vantamos (ooc and character card board!)
Post by: anonsucks117 on January 11, 2016, 07:28:46 AM
But of course a law man would work. My hopes for the thread are simple. Make it what you want. I as the storyteller will mold it ro what you want. I picture a blank canvas in ways of occupation and story progression! As dor the tech. I picture a mix of steam punk and arcane magic. A staff and a .45 caliber reciporcating piston pistol so to speak. The thread is up and character cards would be welcome if that answers your questions but if you have more ill answer them gladly! And as for progression thread wise i see it as a daily post or an hourly post depending on your time frame. My threads are usually laid back but ill try to help it move as quickly as possible for those who jave the time to invest.

While on that point i would love to have a second mod. I work alot and would love one of you fine people to help with the thread and keep it running if i become too busy. Pm me if interested. And thank you all for showing interest in Vatamos and i hope to have it running as soon as your characters have been selected and approved and my second mod chosen! Thank you all!

Post by: Xavier Akafur on January 11, 2016, 09:00:48 AM
Well I will just post a generic character sheet format that I typically use. Still a WIP


EDIT: Just saw you had a format posted in the main thread, you may want to paste that over here :P



Name: Anthony Cheg
Age: 31
Species: Binturong "Bear Cat"
Gender: Male
Class/Fighting Style: Paladin-Esque
Profession: Former Guard Captain, currently working as a freelance peacekeeper in Dock Port City.


Description: Standing at a stout 5'6", at first the heavily armored binturong does not appear overly threatening by stature alone. He has a heavy stance and a confident gait, though he is often somewhat quiet and friendly when approached. Most of his form is covered by a heavy suit of armor, that fits the man almost like a second skin, clearly tailored to his exact measurements and well-used. Where exposed his fur is a deep midnight black, accented by grey highlights that are most visible in direct light. He has dark amber eyes sparkle with golden embers whenever he is excited, and a fairly circular face typical of his species. His hair is shaved to the same length as his fur, if he has any, giving him a rather plain appearance. The helmet or his armor is almost always kept strapped at his hip, banging loudly if he moves too quickly, and includes a slitted face-guard.


History: Classically trained as a city guardsman for Mountain Gate for most of his teenage years, Anthony climbed through the ranks at a rapid pace even from a relatively young age. He had reached the rank of Captain by the time he was 24, and served many years dutifully keeping the city safe from the myriad of threats that commonly came against it. Known for his tactical mindset and tendency to lead by example, he was much liked by the people and the honest men of his order, but he drew the ire of many of his competitors. He made enemies among the guard by rooting out corruption and making sure that those who abused their station were punished swiftly and without mercy. Anthony was no fool, however, and knew that plots were quickly being made to undo what he had brought about. He was fully prepared to fight for his station and his sense of justice, until one of his informants inside the lower social circles told him that they did not just plan on killing him, the plan was to massacre the entire guard unit under his command. And so, on his 30th birthday he announced his early retirement, much to the surprise and dismay of those closest to him. He left quickly, and without saying many goodbyes, knowing that the longer he lingered in the city the more danger there was that his friends would be put in harms way. He worked as a caravan guard for a time, before settling in Dock Port City. DPC did not have a formal guard, or any real government, but Anthony Cheg was still a man of justice. He set up a private bodyguard practice, and now works on beating the corruption out of arguably the most corrupt city there is, for a reasonable price.

Weapons:
- Gravity Hammer (Not the Halo one)- This astounding invention of some mad wizard or alchemist somehow found its way into the hands of the Captain. It can tune itself to the magical abilities of its user, and resembles a heavy warhammer with a spinning, glowing plate set one either side of the massive, rectangular head of the weapon. The glowing of this plate streaks across the head and shaft of the weapon like veins, the only flaw in the weapon's meticulous construction. It has a different effect for each user, but for Tony it allows him to amplify or decrease the weight of the weapon. The glowing disc and veins turns a dark purple when it grows heavier, or a brilliant bright blue when it has been lightened. It is made largely out of some bronze-colored metal, aside from the head which appears to be  a stone-like material that is similar to white marble.
-A heavy, single-bladed short sword kept sheathed and strapped at his right hip.

Armor: Insignia Plate Armor (minus helmet), polished steel. It is finely crafted, and angled in such a way as to deflect most direct blows from a blade. The elbow-guards have curved blades sweeping backwards from them, which are useful as auxiliary weapons.
Magic-Negating manacles are kept looped through the left side of his belt, the key kept on a thin braided chain around his neck.

Abilities/Skills: Anthony is skilled with a particular school of magic that allows him to manipulate gravity in a localized area, or on a particular object. It is a rare form of magic that stems from his convictions of law and order. While powerful, this magic has many limitations, including the fact that it can only be invoked against those who work against these principals. It can also only be used a small number of times a day, as it is highly taxing on the body. The exception to this is the Gravity Hammer, which works off of the magic of the weapon itself and does not draw any energy from the user aside whatever it takes to swing the weapon.


Aside from this magical ability he is a capable fighter, and has a modicum of skill with most common weapons, though he prefers two-handed melee weapons and greatly favors his hammer. He is a fair shot with a bow as well, having been trained during his time with the Mountain Gate Guard.


Flaws or Weaknesses: Due to the style in which he fights, he has difficulties taking on foes with a long reach. He can't swim without removing his armor. Given that his armor is made of simple steel, it is vulnerable to powerful piercing weapons like heavy crossbows or stilettos. Also often gets himself into trouble because of his sense of morality.

Starting City: DPC

Okay, I still am a bit interested, but I would like to know more on the setting? Is there a wilderness (jungle, forest, desert, ect) that our rag-tag group's supposed to explore/find more information about?
Title: Re: Exploration: Vantamos (ooc and character card board!)
Post by: anonsucks117 on January 11, 2016, 04:54:26 PM
Well duh! Thats the whole point. Go to one of the three different capitols and explore the vastly different wildernesses around them. Do jobs for the capitol inhabitants and get information or gold to buy incredible weapons, that kind of thing, and hey you dont have to if you dont want to. You could start a trading company, or even be a ship captain. Do what you want. Follow the time frame and technology limit and everything will be ok lol
Title: Re: Exploration: Vantamos (ooc and character card board!)
Post by: Vosur Aekira on January 12, 2016, 02:37:51 AM
Okay, that was a bit more information than initially (or previously) given. As I'll be heading to work soon, I will try to come up with something for a character. I almost want to go with an inventor/machinist type more, but I'd have to tweak up a few things.

Starting city, but other than that i see everything i had in my orginal plan. The original player card setup is in the ic thread but i like that one much better tbh
Title: Re: Exploration: Vantamos (ooc and character card board!)
Post by: Vosur Aekira on January 13, 2016, 04:37:11 AM
Now that you made mention of the starting city, what's the actual geography of this place? Where are the cities located and who is most common to what cities?
Title: Re: Exploration: Vantamos (ooc and character card board!)
Post by: anonsucks117 on January 13, 2016, 07:39:31 AM
This is the ic thread. It should answer alot i think lol

Welcome to Vatamos. A land where furries of all kinds live, thrive, explore, and progress. From the moutain highlands of The Fanged King, the valleys and forests of The mystic circle,and the beaches of The wave riders, all is open to explore and enjoy! This is a time of peace in Vatamos with the innivations of steam technology such as automatic rifles, tesla generators, the steam engine and the airship. its easier and safer than ever to explore, travel and seek your fourtune anyway you choose! But be warned. Vatamos is also still to be feared. Pirates lurk the sky and sea. while bandits, raiders, and cults, can be lurking where you least expect them. so travel in a group or go it alone. But you have been warned.

Starting point breakdowns: here is a break down of the lands a player can choose to start in!

1. The Highlands. A harsh moutainious region generally populated by bears, wolves, and foxes. Players who choose to start here will start in Mountain Gate. The fortress city ruled with an iron claw by The Fanged king. A harsh city to be sure but more powerful weapons, better made airships, or harder forged steel you will not find. Weapon shops here are the best and most high acclaimed and jobs here are high paying and difficult.

2.The Valley Forests of the Mystics. A lush dense forest region close to the Highlands. Its a realm deeply cloaked in mystery and magic. Players who start here will start in Circle City. A largely academic town ran by the 4 mystics. Hooded mysterious figures. The city is a more upscale sort and the jobs here are lower paying than most cities and are generally simple. but training, upgrades ,potions and medicines here are more than worth the money.

3.Wave Rider Beaches.
Unlike the other lands Wave Rider Beach is a varitable paradise and a trade power house of ports and airship docks. If you need it. They have it. For much better prices than youll find anywhere. The jobs here are medium paying and there are alot of them. Everything you need is here..just maybe not the quality you want. Players who start here will end up in Dock Port city. The city has no leadership The orginal inhabitants are known as the wave riders and they want no leading role or part in how the city is ran. They are carefree. Non violent and fun loving. Even the nastiest criminal wouldnt dare kill a wave rider. But this means the city pretty much governs itself. Crimes here are usually delt with the offender ir the victim dead in the ocean. And there is a lot of crime.

Notes: Any place in or between cities is able to be travled to.

25

Bio:
Taking to the seas as a nameless thief, Syd joined on a crew only to be thrown overboard months later over sailor's superstitions. Under the guise of deeming her bad luck for the ship, her captain saw fit to throw her overboard simply for being a capable woman on his ship - his men didn't need any more distractions. Although she was left for dead, she somehow survived, washing up on shore at a port. From that point forward, she disguised herself as a man, taking on jobs on ships and sometimes dancing at night.

Equipment:
Two daggers (http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Pirate_Bloodletter_%28skin%29)on her belt and a pistol.

Starting City:
Wave Rider Beaches | Dock Port City

More details to come, but that's what I have so far.

I see no real problems with any of your characters and they are all approved. The ic thread is now open to post. Each make an introductory post setting the pace. And i ask no one make beyond an intro post until everyone has posted one! After that i ask you make a post at least an hour to 30 minutes apart. This is a loose rule and i wont enforce it hardcore unless 2 people just dominate a whole page. Also i would like at least a paragraph or more but again. Not going to hardcore enforce it unless you really push me. Other than that post away! And for those who cant find the thread the url is posted below!

Name: Arias S.Y.N

Age: Uncertain

Species: Synthoid; an amalgamation of synthetic flesh and metal

Gender: Male

Fighting Discipline/Style: Sniper under ideal circumstances; close-range fisticuffs

Prior/Current Profession: (Previously) Historian | (Currently) Scout, adventurer and truth-seeker

Appearance: http://sta.sh/2197ye5p4tg5
 (http://sta.sh/2197ye5p4tg5)
Bio: Although he bears no memories of his true birth place or why he was brought into the world to begin with, S.Y.N (later dubbed 'Arias') knew several important details upon first gaining consciousness: He was not the only amalgamation that walked this earth and he had an intensely burning desire to uncover everything about the planet. For a time he would do exactly this, following the paths obviously laid out before him and exploring from one end of a continent to another. He would attempt to satiate that unquenchable blaze for many years, uncovering the history that colored the variety of people who dotted this strange world.

Yet as time marched ever forward and his single journal turned into many, he finally understood it was not just the workings of this planet that drew him on. It was the strange forces that governed this world and the fabric of reality itself, ever tearing at the seams whenever magic was used. These primal energies were something few understood and even fewer desired to contemplate, running instead to the arms of technology and its advances. Yet the very idea of uncovering the truth about its existence filled him with true purpose.

Thus it was from his exploration and pointed questions that he wound up in Circle City, a place that positively thrummed with magic and gave birth to scholars who seemed to seek the very same thing he did. While he still remains within the confines of this city, he has become restless and ever weary of the people who come and go. Not only do they seem far less interested in making the same advancements as he or even giving credence to the beliefs he has formed, they instead pour far too much effort into perfecting spells and retaining a cloak of mystery via the Four Mystics. A simple fact he finds exceedingly distasteful.

Equipment: A long-range rifle that appears to have been cobbled together from spare parts and by the hands of a madman; journals stored in a variety of unusual places on his body as well as pens. Curiously he does not appear to have any place where he stores ammunition for his rifle or spare parts in case portions of him are damaged.

Starting City: The Valley Forests of the Mystics | Circle City

I do believe that spots are still open, but that is up to Anon to decide. If he says it's okay, then fill out a form similar to the way the rest of us have, then wait for him to okay for it before posting in the IC thread.

If/When you get the okay, remember that you'll be starting in one of the three cities and the idea is to explore this world. The setting is a steampunk-meets-fantasy type realm, so nothing TOO advanced for tech.

Denied: Im sorry but i feel as if the character your wanting to contribute would be too solitary and too..ridiculous. The rp is about exploring the world. Not sitting in a castle while i try to make up things for your character to do. And also i would like to see some originality. I mean your obviously copying the joker. This rp is supposed to drop you into the world head first and let you spread your creative wings! Intereact with other players! Not just make a comic book character and give him a job by himself. So the joker character is denied but an original character with a better profession and a deeper backstory will gladly be accepted. Thank you!

I'll be writing up another post momentarily. I hope it helps you find a way for them to be introduced, if you wish to go on this (apparently) crazy journey with Arias and Mr.Creeper.

Edit: I tried to keep it vague so you could do whatever you wanted, whether it was to try and talk about what is going on or completely ignore them.

For those of you not familiar with my schedule I generally post Sun-Thursday nights. So I'm here, this thread just took off unexpectedly over the weekend. xD

I'm not sure if everyone's caught onto what I'm doing, but I use lightblue to indicate if my character is saying or thinking (italicized) something, but if I end up controlling another character like an NPC, I will use a different color for their dialog. The reason why colored-text for dialog is to indicate WHO is speaking or when a character is being spoken.

What I would recommend to everyone else is to use an easily-visible color on a black or grey background for dialog portions of text. Normal blue text will not be easily visible, so I would refrain from using that. If you are unsure of what colors will work, I'll type out something and see how you all can see the different colors, but the phrase is "Do you see the color of this text?" If you attempt to try something and it ends up white in the preview, the color-name you chose will not work.

Do you see the color of this text? Black
Do you see the color of this text? Red
Do you see the color of this text? Yellow
Do you see the color of this text? Pink
Do you see the color of this text? Green
Do you see the color of this text? Lightgreen
Do you see the color of this text? Orange
Do you see the color of this text? Purple
Do you see the color of this text? Blue
Do you see the color of this text? Lightblue
Do you see the color of this text? Beige (VERY hard to distinguish this from white on a lot of monitors)
Do you see the color of this text? Brown
Do you see the color of this text? Teal
Do you see the color of this text? Navy
Do you see the color of this text? Maroon
Do you see the color of this text? Limegreen
Do you see the color of this text? White (will change ALL text within the brackets to white)
Do you see the color of this text? Magenta

Although the tip is appreciated, I will personally refrain from doing so; regardless of the number of characters I may be playing. I find it preferable to make who is speaking obvious through their word choice and mannerisms. Using colored text is far too distracting and a bit annoying to constantly code in, let alone see pop up frequently (to me).

Alright, but this is something that I would recommend to those who have multiple NPC's or main characters.

Nothing personal, but I'm kinda stuck waiting unless we get something to happen on the trip. Most of my RP has been filler now.

Ah, mostly 12-hour shifts, eh? Well, hopefully you get good pay for it.
