Lord Rain- A keeper that resembles a large person wearing an intimidating set of black armor, adorned with a few metal skulls on it. He charges into the fray of combat with two axes that cackle with dancing electricity, both of them far too heavy for any normal human to wield.

That Compendium entry paints a picture in your mind and condenses that entire section of your post into two sentences. If you aren't going to write a better summary then you can use that, but you won't get the perfect description unless you write it yourself.

You are a great person.

well im kindof in a rut here..i have to write my own conflict with the town and yet not be completely bias to my own victory...i mean theres 3 gms as in game masters and none of them are doing the job of a game master save to warn people that they're doing something wrong and yet on the other hand we have to flesh out the world ourselves, every town and stuff..i mean it goes without saying for towns that we would like to invent and such but for the ones existing already...and yes i know how hard it is believe me but youre putting the players in a position that players shouldn't be in, if you wanna do that then you might as well let the player do whatever they want to do..i personally really am not interested in too much detail in a town im about to destroy and reshape anyway, id be satisfied with a bare bone description..

if you want i will design the cities for you, not finding much to do with my keeper anyway

I think the autonomy when it comes to world building is great, but then again I do love writing settings and lore. I would be opposed to any one person designing the towns and cities.

The reasons we do what we have been doing is because 1) the same reasons as Master Jay just said, because building the world is part of this RP and the autonomy means you don't have to wait for the GMs to go to new places, and 2) in such a big world it would be challenging for us to cover every single detail. However, we are happy to help you out where you need it. As you request, I shall set up Opes Fluvium for you and give you a starting point for the conflict.

If that's the case, then would it be okay to create a (ruined) city somewhere? Like a forgotten and/or nearly abandoned city?

It's nice to have fans.

Certainly. Aside from the basic climates and major cities that we defined on the map, everything in the world is a blank slate that you can fill with whatever you want.

Try listening to some music. It works 100% of the time. Music you normally wouldn't listen to tends to work best in my experience.

If the speakers on my radio worked right, I would try that.

Just play Youtube in the background; there are lots of videos that just consist of music. There's a channel called TheWeedSongs that has a bunch of Bob Marly and 2Pac, if you're into that kind of thing.

SInce I finally remembered, here is the image that inspired Viktors transformation.

Naturally, I didn't take it that far, but perhaps someday it will be.

Kangusto, for the sake of me knowing what to be posting, are you going to do the sequence with Baudrii and the supply barge or shall I? I'd much rather you retain more control over your character, but I'd be willing to control him for a time if you want to focus more on your other plans.

Wheee. In a couple of hours I'm leaving for my trip. I won't be able to post for about a week and a half, just FYI, or if you didn't notice. Try not to murder Viktor while I'm gone.
T.K.Bye

Well, I suppose I should start getting Shaige caught up these next few days. Hopefully my sudden surge of posts will make up for Trapezoid's absence.
