I will be starting outside Sylywnn. Everything that anyone might need to know will be discussed in my intro post, and his backstory will be gradually revealed IC.If anyone would like to have past experiences with my character, feel free to pm me. He is a monster hunter, wandering from town to town.

I was going to make a monster hunter, I'll settle for bounty hunter. Much better career prospects anyways

Hello, everyone. I will be joining this RP. My character is going to be a shipwrecked former pirate captain. Anyone want to be his rescuer?

It depends on where. Olnesse is a coastal city, so he might be brought to my character to get treated for whatever wounds he has, though she won't be his rescuer.

Also, from what I understood from Aeon, you'll have to be pretty damn convincing to be a shipwrecked former pirate. He did make it fairly clear that the waters are nigh on impossible to cross without getting swallowed whole. This is your first post here, so try to talk it over with Aeon first. Not sure if he'd even allow a shipwrecked dude/pirate (Also, what are pirates good for? No merchant ships to plunder).

My character is a bounty hunter xD

I'm picturing them circling around the island chasing each other, always on opposite sides and going along the coasts, after they both got a bounty for the other.

Lol, turning into a 30s cartoon? XD

Well, character pending approval when I wrap up tonight, but I am planning on playing a Courier/Messenger starting from Aelholt.

Better life expectancy? Probably... My character was a bounty hunter for a while but wanted something more dangerous. Plus, I would imagine that the cities would pay a pretty heafty fee to get rid of a voidling stomping around the coast or in the woods.

Thinking that part of Scooby Doo where they run in and out of doors in a corridor, with a voidling chasing after/being chased by them? You can have fun with the mortal risks, I'm just gonna be making glassware and shit. Nothing radical.

Apparently hunting in this world is a lucrative business. Maybe there is a central guild built towards it?

There can be yes. If you would like one implemented, I will make one. If you would like to "run the business" then you may do so. For the most part I won't be controlling it a whole lot, if I do wind up being the master of it. But It can exist nevertheless.

Thankyou for keeping this hooligans in line :P

I really don't see this happening. I don't see you being able to justify this to the point of acceptance, considering the world I have laid out before you. Yet, I am willing to listen if you can convince me. Also, starting with the line "anyone want to be his rescuer" makes it sound as if you are dependent on other people, and as I've seen so far there is only one other person wanting to "piggyback".

This seems like a generally compelling RP. I only have one simple question. Are anthropomorphic characters accepted? Or is it strictly humans? If it is the former, I will be promptly PMing you with a character sheet, or at least after my shift ends

Yes they are. Not my favorite but I do not let me prejudices hold you back from what you want to do. Do you want an entire new race of creatures (which you can have), or just a unique character? Well unique-ish, I have another half-anthropomorphic already, justified.

Callthecops said
Oh, I was under the impression that they would never be shown. I threw a few minor details in an edit to my post above that should be good for now.

Well, I had two state they would prefer CS's be kept hidden. But I will probably release them. I will however, only offer the most basic of details (incase you need to re-reference material.) Such as appearance, age, name, job, etc. Mostly keeping the powers, weaknesses, special gear, skills, and backround hidden. Not settled on this, but that's where I'm leaning.

The Fated Fallen said
This is exactly what I meant by piggy-back off of other characters. Roleplays that start with everyone apart never go very far in my experience

Listen here sir. If you're going to keep up this woeful negative attitude, you are more than welcome to leave. This is my roleplay, and honestly, I don't care what you've experienced. Coming in here with a negative attitude is not appreciated, so keep your remarks to yourself. You came to me, therefore you either want to roleplay in this style, story, and setting, or you don't. Don't sit here and nay-say my roleplay because of whatever your past experiences are. This is not a "dragon slaying adventure about a rag tag band of friends forced to work together", this is a collection of stories, about people who influence the world, help shape it. Those paths will intertwine, and the amount of time characters spend together is entirely up to their creators. If you want a scallywagging adventure with a misfit group of heroes, this is entirely the wrong place for you.

If you want to stay, drop the negativity and instead, drop me a CS.

I've always interpreted bounty hunters as very individualistic by nature. If there is a guild my character probably won't be a part of it. He may interact with it at times but definitely not a member.

He was talking about Monster Hunting I believe.

If we are to have a Bounty Hunter guild, it could be somewhat of an agency that hands out contracts to its members. I honestly like that idea, it would kind of be "assassin-ish" in its business but it deals with bounties on branded criminals and works openly. I would enjoy having a guild like this, albiet not be the leader...I can't handle such a responsibly, I am but a humble, humble man...

Again I think he may have been talking about Monster Hunting. Otherwise you can expect your normal guilds; thieves, assassins, merchants, a school of wizadry (you're a wizard harry!) and probably the Iron Brigade (fights guild)

Probably a cupcake guild too.

Regular monsters or Voidlings? My character pretty much has a death wish, but other than soldiers defending their city walls, I didn't expect there to be a lot of people pursuing that kind of danger.

Both probably. I mean, 500 years is a long time, it would only make sense for there to be a guild of farmboys people feelings that they can end the land's troubles by monster hunting.

Probably add a bounty board too.

What? Negativity? Naysaying? All I ever suggested was for someone to give my character a purpose, I haven't said I don't want to be part of your roleplay, and I have never tried to usurp you. I simply wanted to start the Roleplay with a connection to at least one other character.

And even before this comment you've made it clear that you didn't want that. So I've moved on to make a monster hunter/bounty hunter and have even helped develop this roleplay by suggesting a hunters guild. If I gave off the impression of being negative or hostile I am sorry, I meant none of it

Where exactly did you get usurp from? The point was I don't want to hear anymore about "in my experience this" and "it's a shame that". If you can handle that then fine. I never "made it clear" that I didn't "want" characters being together. I made it very clear that this is not a dependant roleplay. Maybe you missed the previous post where I said "The amount of times characters spend together is entirely up to their writers". Don't be negative, and don't throw incorrect accusations at me.

I'm trying not to be negative. My last comment was an apology for perhaps acting in a negative way. I already said I am conforming to your rules, I am making a bounty hunter, independent of other characters as per your instructions.

If you found my comment aggressive, all I have to say is that it's hard not to be when someone attacks you and tells you to get off of their forum.

I voiced my opinion. In my experience Roleplays that start with characters apart don't often go on for long. Now it is your opportunity to either take my advice or prove me wrong. At no point did I tell everyone that they shouldn't be here because it sucked, I believe the opposite. There is a lot of energy here, and a good canvas to work on.

I may be negative by nature, but I never mean offense.
The best way to drop the negativity is to have accepted my apology for being negative, so we can all move onto the more fun things like actually roleplaying. We can still do this

Speaking of moving on... I'm one of those assholes who writes half his intro post before his character is even accepted, so I'm certainly excited to begin!
