Conrad seems like a very interesting character. I also see he's part of the Vanguard! I'll have my character recognizing him appropriately!

I figured it would make more sense to join an existing group than to invent one- so that left Guardians or Vanguard. I didn't think he would be too useful 'guarding' anything, with those abilities.... so vanguard it was :D

Thanks for the compliment, it took a while to make him.

It's seems we only need Mad Scarlet to post now. I'll wait for him/her to post a bit more.

Yeah, this is a huge post. Very huge. Maybe I tried to cram too much content into it, but I hate filler posts, so... yeah.

I edited my post to have Varkasan recognize Conrad as well =)

Awww... Alicia ignored Vark. Oh well, I'll just write that in once I get my next post up. It may take a bit of time though. And yes, Laue. Congratulations on the long post XD. The action is starting just as quickly as last time. Though I do appreciate that different things happen, and Mages are in a dilemma as well, instead of everything being fine and dandy for them =P

Yeah, my main goal was fixing pacing issues and not leaving the mages bored. I also figured it was quite silly unleash Mimel that early - she is supposed to just below (barely) Azure in terms of power, and his second-in-command. Either way, I am going to try to showcase more of Azure's lieutenants this time, as he has quite a few.

That was...impressive, Laue. I'm glad the mages will be a little more active this time around. I'll do my best to get something out today, but I'll be heading out of town for the fourth, so I'm sorry if I'm late on that.

A wild idea appears: stat system.

Supplementing the emphasis on character power growth, every character would get a set of stats which would be constantly updated by me in the CS thread. Each character would start at 1 in all ratings. After "major ordeals", I already intended the characters to get a bit stronger in any way they see fit. This would also allow to have a baseline comparison in battle sequences, where each player could have an base idea in the strength differences.

For example, strenght at value of 1 is considered average, and at value of 10 the character could easily destroy an entire castle with his bare hands.

What's your opinion on this?

Well... I've never RP'ed with a stat system before, so I guess I could try it out. I'll be fine with it as long as raw stats wont be able to completely overwhelm tactics and strategy every time XD. I'd also like it if possible options for tackling different situations wont be limited because of a low stat in a certain skill. It would kind of limit imagination.

Fair point. I would not dare to limit imagination, it's just more like "well, that guy is clearly far faster than me" kind of deal.

Go phone post!

As far as a stats system goes, I'd be fine with it as long as we could have a bit more variance with starting stats as well. I wouldn't expect Shara to be of equal strength to any soldier, even later in the RP. At this point, she has a lot of magical ability but no finesse, and is inexperienced, and that is where I mainly see her growing. It really depends on how it's implemented whether it would work well or not.

I have never used a stat system before in an RP, so you would have to hold my hand a bit. Otherwise, I would be fine with it. I agree with the others though with the variance ability. I mean, Conrad going out for a jog isn't the same as Conrad running for his life.

After further considerations and your opinions, I will not implement this for now.

Sorry about how long it took, I am a fast typist but slow with the actual writing. Had to find a few hours to sit down and think it over before I could get something out there. if I got something wrong about what you guys were doing, feel free to shoot a message to me about it.

@brokndremes That is one of the longest phone posts I have seen o.O fingers falling off yet?

It was written over several hours, so thankfully my fingers are still attached. I used to write all my posts on my phone, and it's not so bad once you get the hang of it. Very difficult to judge length and cohesiveness though, which is frustrating.
