Holy Crap that is a long CS xD

Anyway, I've went through your explanations on her character and so-far there are no problems. Accepted. Oh, and on her information network, exactly what do you need?

It kills me to think about how I might have to add another 2000 words, lol. I suppose it'd be summarized in two extra sections: "Troublemaker at Aledine" and "Current Affairs".

Anyway... Was thinking a bit about Aoife's weaknesses again. Another point of contention are some of Aoife's regrets. She feels that she is partially responsible for her family's current situation, and there have been points where her magic went out of control for the worse. One example would be how she learned the ability to incorrectly heal/overheal/overnourish an opponent, it was entirely an accident that she's still a bit sore about.

It's also notable that Aoife's strengths are necessarily high in combat situations. Instead, it is best to think that she can only apply herself and use her full potential when there are negative or subversive elements to apply her mind to. That is, Aoife's strength in all matters is best applied to and at its peak when a situation involves violence or crimes.

Funny now, considering that I had once considered mentioning that she might also work on the side as a private investigator for couples or something silly like that. That'd absolutely bore her out her mind.

Woo! Like a breath of fresh air.

Anyway, her information network would require knowledge similar to that of both the teacher and the headmaster's wards. It would represent things that other students and teachers have seen or heard around themselves. Of course, being a network of relayed information, it would have inaccuracies and discrepancies. Basically, a very advanced form of gossip and rumors corner. Like if Aoife were to ask Student A about Student F's hobbies and habits, she would get some data that has been observed.

That said, despite being accepted, I really need to take a nap. I only had three hours of sleep last night LOL.

Ah, so something like a spy ring, only less illegal? Her information network is based on regular peoples daily observations or something like that?

That was an enjoyable read and I agree with what Excidius said about putting in to perspective about the strengths of the Masgistrava. It also made me realize that Adam is an even bigger concern for some of the teachers considering he took 5 years to gain and upperclassmen's skills in every aspect of magic they could teach. He probably look likes a magical time bomb with the way he flaunts with his limits. I also liked reading about her analytically mind considering the similarities to the quality of his magical senses.

Correct, it's much like a spy ring. As it's structured similarly to a police detective's list of contacts and confidential informants, it's still pretty shady, but entirely legal. Yes and no, it's based on daily observations, though specific information can be requested and investigated by certain members, if Aoife herself is unable to.

Another way to think of Aoife is to compare her to an information broker, so some people might tell her secrets, while others might pay her to divulge secrets. Though she has a pretty strong moral compass, so there's a high chance she'd keep her lips sealed for some major secrets.

RIght. To teachers, Aoife is quite the favorable student in that she shows reverence to the elementary basics that she was taught from the beginning. For Aoife, there's a clear beginning to all of her spells, and even her most earth-shattering spellcraft would seem very "clean". She isn't some terrifying prodigal genius that can create and cast massive spells without precedent, that's dangerous, she's instead a highly elite upperclassman that can easily cast and understand powerful spells with as few dangers and as little energy consumption as possible. That said, her aspirations to be a magical crimes inspector aside, Aoife's skills symbolize what "normal" Magestrava can be if they work and try hard enough.

Now, I said it before, but my posting pace is a little slower than some. I'll do my best to churn out at least one post a day, though. Hopefully two if time and situation permits.

Good morning, in my free at the moment. Just realized Impy claimed both the 300th and 400th post.

...The CS of 35K characters will grow? *Takes off magnifying glasses*


I'll be able to write up a post today, since the report I had to write due Wednesday has been move to the next day.

I'm still debating what to do with Billie. Because I see flaws everywhere I look. She doesn't know she is a Monk. She thinks she just fails as a magician and is soon to be kicked out. I don't know whether or not to make her a first year or a second year. As even attempting some of spells she can't do would physically hurt her so badly. Her only hint are the clothes given to her by her grandmother. I guess that could prompt her to try and learn more about Monks. Merrr...

-walks around feeling like a derp-

OH! And an update. xD
My character for the Tabletop I was talking about got fucked up last night. Standing atop a mountain of guns, bullets, and bodies, she and her friend Todd fend off a horde of Splicers(Bioshock Campaign b/c wynaut.). My character literally can't run out of guns or ammo yet she manages to, which says a lot. And then, Todd tackles her and attempts to transport the both of them, making the both of them batshit crazy. Todd goes Cartoon Physics and my character is just... off. So yeah. BUT NOW. I get to introduce my Mechanic. :D

Anyway... >.>

-goes to derp around else where-

Make her a first year, Rose. Now that you've given me some ammo on her, expect your character to be put through hell xD

Lovedaia is pretty simple compared to all of your guys. I'm disappointed in myself.

@ Apok, Yes, but even a simple character can be hard to play, a challenge. :P

@ Hanged, Alright. Then scratch what Billie said previously about being a second year. This is her first year here. And... I expected hell for her, to be honest. I don't like having strong characters. I like starting out weak and building.

I have the hardest time roleplaying simpler characters and making smaller sheets. It's like the Russians once said, "Good is the enemy of Good Enough." My sheets are too complicated and the characters over-engineered, my writing process is marred by slowness due to that nature; so I actually envy people who can work with simple characters and still effectively post with good details and entertaining roleplay.

Point is, you should be proud of yourself! You can do a lot with less.

Morning all, seems I slept later then I normally do but I'm here now.

EDIT: the expanded accepted character sheet area has an incorrect hider and I can't find Oggie anywhere

Shifter_Master said the expanded accepted character sheet area has an incorrect hider and I can't find Oggie anywhere

More like, all of the hiders in my sheet appear to have broke. I'll make another pastebin thing when I get home, since I forgot an item from the final version anyway.

Odd, I'm able to see the contents of the hiders of your CS on the previous page, though Hanged forgot to put in the syntax for the Accepted Chars Cont. He would need to copy it over directly from the post/pastebin, instead of quoting it.

Ah, I had meant that the hiders in my post completely disappeared, as if the [hider][/hider] tags were erased. The main appearance image, and certain sections (Outsorcery Details, etc) are supposed to be hidden, yet are not.

Anyway, raw for my post

Sorryyyyyyy! I'll be posting tomorrow. Adjusting to my new schedule is a little tougher than expected. (Wake up at 4h30 am, school from 7 am to 6h30 pm, commute to get home at 8...)

Forgive meeee :(

Question for Hanged, I have loose plans for when Alexander feels either extremely mad or threatened, I plan for him as Sakra to basically just instinctively shot-gun out Sakra out the person who is the source of his frustration. Basically, what should I should except it to do? I am guessing it either will do nothing, or have a mind crush like effect.

Woops. I forgot about editing those . . . anyway, the script of this website annoyse me xD

Hm. First, ALexander would collapse because of uncontrolled release and shock, then, the target would most likely collapse with him along with some minor memory wipe.

Ok, that sounds prefect.

Hey Hanged, you mentioned in passing that worship is tied to the land rather than something like organized religion. What would be an acceptable exclamation substitute for "jeez" and the like? Tentatively, I just use "gods", or more humorously, "Lords of Lismos..."

Also, what is the currency of Lismos? As in, what is it called, and what are the values of it for common items (apples, baubles, etc.)?
