Yeah, I know a weird amount about tanks after spending about half a day designing my battle mech character. That's information I really don't need.


Right now I have so many tabs open on my browser and a handful of PDFs of Kitsune Lore from various cultures. Meanwhile, on another character, I have several tabs, where I've just started on some Sandman type lore stuff for another potential character.

Were you the one interested in my Kitsune-like trap character?

Damn yo, I had been thinking of making a Kitsune character recently, three sisters in fact. In an effort to get more female characters on my roaster.

What a Coincidence.

Vsauce is my favorite for some interesting science, not counting Game Theory.

Lindybeige is good in addition to Skallagrim and discusses roleplaying a fair amount.

I don't think so. I didn't even know you had one.

Well then, perhaps we can cross paths. The thing about the Multiverse is, it's easy to translate lore in your own unique way. My character is essentially some off-branch of a Human, with a fox spirit. I avoid the 'FURRY' stuff. lol. I'm working on him now, and looking into also doing a few other similar characters afterwards. My goal list is as follows:

Kitsune - Fox
Senri - Cat
Okami - Wolf
Ogumo - Spider
Hebi - Snake

They'll all be pretty unique from one another though. I.E. Okami will focus more on Werewolf lore than wolf spirit stuff.

Though, the animals aren't really the main focus in them. They aren't necessarily even connected to one another in my own overarching lore. I.E. Hadyn (the name of my Kitsune character) is looking for the Red Sage in his storyline. He believes he has something to do with him being the way he is. Meanwhile, the Red Sage really has nothing to do with his storyline, and has his own storyline that deals with a fallen empire and a stone slab. Won't go into too much detail on that. Ha.

Maybe, I was thinking of going into the base root of Kitsune lore, that being spiritual enlightenment. The more enlightened you are, the greater degree of control over chi you have (I.E your bodies electric potential) which thus means you have more tails. More tails of course means more power. Nine tails of course being the height of enlightenment.

That's my plan anyway, just need to find the time to get working on them. :P

Not sure what direction your going to go, but interaction between my Kitsune's and yours would be interesting. (though I was going to make them an all female race. XD)

Oh, on larger topics, at the moment the Multiverse has really one established power. The Angar Rylla of course being one of them. The Dreamers themselves are likely to be major players in some way for story purposes, but so far I don't believe they'd make for a good faction to have for the ARENA.

Which leaves us for at least two other larger powers (the idea being Ao does not want them going to war with each other on a large scale else there would be nothing left), so do people have any idea for interesting themes? I'm trying to avoid obvious evil factions or goody toe shoes ones, as those seem a tad bit unrealistic and hard to relate to. Joining any of these will of course be optional, but will make for nice spice for PC v PC story lines as for reasons to have conflicts. (Heck the whole Overgod thing will even explain away permanent death.)

Hence why my kitsune is a trap, a male one. In my lore the male children would just be human, normally. I would have to alter some stuff but could fit my kitsune into that lore as well.

Haha. Yes, to Hadyn, the tails are an account of enlightenment and of power. However, it also represents his Fox spirit's grip on the physical realm. The two are separate in many ways, but also the same in many ways. My Lore will also Involve 'The Lady'. Possibly deriving from Indian Origins, from what I've read. According to it, she's the mother of all Kitsune. She has 10 tails in some writings, and in other ones she has a thousand. Of course, I don't plan on dismissing Inari in any way.

BTW. That Sandman character I'm working on. The way he looks and acts, is very similar to The Dreamers, but his story and abilities are definitely much different. Matter of fact, it would probably even make him an enemy of them. I just figured I'd point that out.

Which also reminds me that Hadyn's clan of Kitsune technically no longer exist. They were integrated with Human society for a long time, but were eventually discovered and hunted down. Hadyn, obviously having survived, thanks to another character that I'm ALSO working on.

Oh? lol. I don't know when I'll be introducing him into the Arena. I'm working at finishing Hadyn first, then who knows where I'll end up. Character creation is arguably one of my favorite parts of Roleplaying.

Character Creation is my favorite part of roleplaying. That's why I have characters to be done that I haven't finished or even used for RPs.

Yup. Thankfully there's Game and Film theory to do the heavy research for me for allot of the things I'm interested in. I mean I had no idea before that DBZ was using actual theoretical science in their fights. That must throw Skalla's whole world into wack.

I mean, I might not have even learned that their are four fundamental stats of matter not three(never mind that only 1% of the universe is made up of liquid, solid and gas's) as we have been lead to believe in school. Goes to show you the Arena is where you go to really learn SCIENCE!


Not really. DBZ is science fiction, heavy on the fiction. And they admittedly retcon'd the mythic that DBZ is based upon. Some of the science is right, but a majority is so far out that science can be discarded and left as fiction.

Absolutely. I have Taro on the back burner right now. I've found myself in a stuck spot with him. Can't quite figure out where I want to go with him. Meanwhile, Yasu isn't even on the Radar at the moment. I've got Hadyn going good so far, but simultaneously trying to work on a plethora of other characters. I have to really force myself to sit down and just write sometimes, or I'd never get characters finished before I'm off and running on something else. Haha.

Though, the biggest reason that Taro is on the back burner right now, is because I actually plan on using Hadyn in an Multiverse RP outside of the arena first. So, I'm trying to get him done asap. Then I'll probably be trying to finish him as well.

Weirdly I don't really care that much about character creation, I'm somewhat jaded by the amount of character's I've made only to have other people's inactivity render them useless. My characters tend to stand out for actions they've carried out and things they've done in RP, at least to me, as opposed to the story I give them when they're made.

I'm a big fan of characters, I would go to valucre to read some of their sheets, and would read some here if they were well composed.

I don't mind people not using them, or them being used by me, it's enough for me just to make them.

I feel the same, which is why I had a big list of characters for a while on my CS thread that just had brief descriptions and not full fledged Character Sheets. I want to make CSs for them all, but none of them are priority right now. Most, I'm not even sure if I'd ever use at all.
