My current plan is that if we continue to be ignored by Thursday (that's about two days) I will send out feelers for potential replacements (I have a person or two in mind). I will also then send another less friendly PM to capp because being ignored would anger me (I'd still be polite[ish], doncha worry). Friday night will be the absolute deadline for capp to rejoin us and after that Maggie's spot will be officially open for new people to take.

Hopefully none of that will be necessary though. :D

Oh god! I'm sorry! I hardly pay attention to my PMs and I lost the thread in the masses of the internet. This is the first time I've seen it on the first page in a while. I would have posted sooner if I was on when it was updated. Super super sorry. I don't think I'll be able to post anymore anyways... college has started and I can only dedicate my time to a couple of RPs.

I... see...

Well, one, there's a subscribe button for a reason. That would probably help you in the future.

Two, I'm afraid I find that notion kind of offensive since when I went to your page to send you a PM, I saw that one of your recent posts was a response to an interest check. Joining a new RP and abandoning mine because of a lack of time? Well it's your choice I suppose, though I find it disappointing.

If you're certain, then I guess I'm glad this happened so early on, though feel free to change your mind if you want before you're officially replaced.

Well, good news. We found a replacement. We'll be sending out messages to some people who may be interested and have our fourth teammate by this weekend to replace Maggie. If all else fails, I have someone who is definitely interested, but we're making this fair by having each submit a character sheet. We'll keep you guys updated.

And...he went to bed so I don't know how he wants to proceed with posts, but I'm assuming we're to wait. Sorry for the delays, but we're gonna get it back up and running as quickly as possible.

Should I still get that last post I'm allowed to do or should I wait?

Mm...since Killa's not here to say it one way or the other, I'll say go for it. Nevin and Aurelia are alone so it won't effect the movement of things for Abel and the newcomer. I probably won't respond until we sort out this fourth teammate, though. Which should be tomorrow, in all honesty. Killa and I both have a candidate in mind, it's just a matter of comparing who fits the team dynamic better.

Update: Our new player has unofficially been selected, since the person I had in mind is too busy. I just need to approve Ryu's person's CS and we'll get this thing back on track.

To avoid stagnation, we might move things forward a bit in the meantime, but hopefully we'll get it wrapped up quickly.

If we move forward, does that mean Abel will automatically know this new person and be partnered with him/her? If you want to do a slight timeskip, maybe wait until after this new recruit has posted.

Nah, my basic plan is the new person will be one of the until now unknown other students taking the test with them. I will suggest that they make a larger introductory post, and then they'll run into Abel shortly after.

Unless people have better ideas of course.

Okay, I guess I'll post to keep things going a little bit. our new player is almost ready, she's just finishing up her Semblence and picking a name. We should have something tonight, if not tomorrow."

Hello all. She is almost finished with her character. We had been talking about the name she wanted and she offered some valid points that, after further research, actually could make a lot of sense. She had narrowed her name down to three, but none of them started with an M. So, our choices are that she can either keep her choices and we'll figure out a new team name or she'll have to change her name and we'll keep ANMA. Though, she raised a point with her explanation. The starting letter of the team name seems to be exclusively the leader. RWBY - Ruby. JNPR - Jaune. CRDL - Cardin. CRME - Cinder.

Anyway, the name we came up with for a potential team name was Team NAGA. After thinking about it, I think the name could be fitting for our team. Serpents represent a lot of things, including guardianship (I know Nevin is going to be protective of his team, I may be assuming that the others will be the same way but I figured it'd be fitting whenever we get to the plot, guardians over Beacon), cunning and deception (the way I see the team functioning, along with my character's Semblence, is a lot of cunning and strategy since everyone will be connected to each other), and rebirth (our characters seem to typically have baggage that weighs down on a group setting, such as Aurelia's nervousness, so it can be thought of as a symbolic rebirth of our characters as they grow to work together as a team).

Of course, since it is our team, I wanna leave it up to you guys. So what do you think? Good idea or am I thinking too far into this? xD

Since I know Ryu spoke to you about your CS, I discussed it with him. I just need to be clear about how your semblance works, so I want to hear it from you.

Unless I'm reading it wrong, it SOUNDS like she can make physical duplicates of anything she sees, including other, living beings (like people). That last part I wouldn't be able to accept. If she made illusory copies, that I could let you get away with. Personally, the entire semblance makes me nervous, so if you could give me a more detailed rundown on how it's supposed to work, then I'll take another look and see if I'll need to ask you to tweak anything. There is evidence in RWBY, as I'm sure you know, that supports making duplicates capable of physically interacting with the world, but I want to make sure you don't go too far with it.

Anyway, I'm sure we can work it out, whatever the case may be. I'll be on later tomorrow (technically today I guess) to figure it all out with you.

Creating actual people was definitely not what I had in mind. The idea was that they clones would appear the same, but not be able to really inflict actual damage. Ryu described it like shadow clones from Naruto, but I haven't seen that. I was thinking something like Morel's "Deep Purple" ability from Hunter x Hunter. I don't know if you're familiar with it. But basically when hit, they would dissipate and vanish. They can't deal damage to people, and would be merely used for distraction.

If able to make clones of people, she would probably do so very sparingly. The ability is supposed to work with her weapon more than anything else. The RWBY abilities all seem to work together with their weapons and fighting styles anyway. Dealing actual damage would have been limited to inanimate objects like the chakram.

I also told him that I intended for the ability to come with consequences where size, density, and number of clones would require different amounts of aura and focus. If she were to control the puppets, it would require her attention to be alerted to them. Essentially her manipulating them would make it more difficult for her to fight in battle, possibly to the point that she wouldn't be able to physically defend herself against an assault without getting rid of the clones.
