Okay gang, we need a plausible reason for Mith to be in the Kingston residence. Someone call, assassination? We went in with a few ideas but no confirmation. Suggestions for other characters is fine too, I assume. We've been discussing in the chat but not everyone uses the chat, which is why I'm putting this here.

I will come up with something and just go with it by tonight. I should be able to post either late tonight or tomorrow. However, do contact me with any ideas you may have. I have a few I haven't suggested yet.

Finally thought of a post, hope it makes sense x.x

I was hoping to join, any requirements or outlines on the character submission? Im a bit loopy due to lack of sleep but this topic peaked my interest. If the thread is not open atm and I am just blind I apologize.

Nope, we're still open I believe! Any requirements for the character submission is outlined in the character sheet. And we could actually use some direction so maybe a new player is exactly what we need: > Okay gang, we need a plausible reason for Mith to be in the Kingston residence. Someone call, assassination?

So if you want to work your character into this so he has a connection with Mith, that'd be awesome. But you don't have to, of course.

But you don't have to, of course. Well I was thinking of doing a self muted character (lips sew shut) who is a complete loyalist to a specific person to the death, so if that works i can run with that

We also kinda need more Kingstons for balance purposes, if possible.

> We also kinda need more Kingstons for balance purposes, if possible. That also works just fine considering his mouth is closed, unless he stabs someone with a mcdonalds straw in their jugular he has to use prepackaged blood. And the complete servitude works for anything, he can be loyal and follow all Kingston rules but doesnt need to believe in them as much as he does and would follow all the rules set forth by his master (which would be the Kingston rules). if that made any sense.

Writing. I'll try to make friends with the Kingstons.

It seems we've gotten to the point where character making and introductions are over. Now things need to happen. We need rogue vampires killing in the street, or the army busting in on the Blackmoors, or some badass vampire about to claim the magical worldstone. If you want there to be an inter-family war, then we need to fight. We need to get some war going. There needs to be like and old grudge of a life that was taken, some reason to have animosity. If the Kingstons love humans so much, then they need to be pissed about the loss of their human friends to vampires. What are they going to do about that? Aren't there plenty of vampires that don't like righteous human-lovers interfering with their feeding? Wouldn't they attack a place like the Kingston manor? Drum up some story. I want stuff to happen.

How would your character talk and interact if his lips are sewed?

How would your character talk and interact if his lips are sewed? Well i can always just make it a repentance for giving into an urge and feeding as a punishment handed down versus execution, unless execution is a have to. As for communication that just involves more descriptive role-playing with gestures and body language description, that or i can do spoken words when needed as sign language. if its more trouble than its worth ill scrap it. Right now I am just work-shopping a few ideas.

Wraith wants to make trouble!:P

Trouble is life.

So 1 is the not being executed just punished for feeding possible 2 can using descriptive body language and sign language (as spoken word) work? if yes to both I will work on rolling this up after class tonight. If no I will just role up a standard-ish guy that wont have anything like that.

You see, here's a couple of things. First off, in order to execute a sentence, in order to even pass judgement and enforce law, vampires as a society have to have some sort of structure. The fact is, when it comes to immortal being with amazing powers, there's little if any form of government among them. Now, if you have a family or coven or some kind of sect with a ruler and an army or followers... then such a punishment could be carried out and enforced. however, most small groups of vampires, if they consider themselves a structured society, are not going to bother capturing and maiming another vampire. And who's to say their target wouldn't be vengeful? wouldn't one day acquire enough power to exact revenge, or hell, wouldn't just take the damn mouth stitches out? Seriously. Vampires could certainly get themselves killed if they mess with the wrong clan or coven. I know for a fact any organized group is going to be able to kill an individual. It might therefore be best to stick to a group for protection, hence families or covens. The last point is, trying to rp without being able to speak is a frank biatch. I have tried it. What happens is, you get left behind and forgotten about. Take my advice and don't do it. Those who can't read minds will find him especially useless and will avoid rping with your dude.

alight would a bruiser type work? i was wondering if you dislike the idea of sub-dermal armor. basically thinner Kevlar or metallic plates inserted under the skin for armor (taken from 40k universe but no that crazy) he would be ugly as shit to look at and naked (which wouldn't happen anyhow) he would look blocky and odd. Im not looking for some mega rp cheat crap just something different, almost Frankenstein's monster kind of vibe. If that one is a no then ill just roll a normal dude, idea came to me and i thought it'd be interesting.

I'm ok with it. How about the rest of you?

Hey! I didn't know this was back up! Would you guys mind adding me back in? If so, I'll go.

Yeah man, just go ahead and add your character to the character tab. :)
