Well, looks like one or two of my RPs are dying off. Mind if I join now?

If all of these characters wind up being active, there are enough for two separate RPs to run simultaneously. Maybe three. At least we've got our bases covered if we have to split up into teams and tackle different objectives at the same time.

So, who's on Team Sneaky? (working title, sounded more LoZ that "Team Tactical Stab Things Quietly In The Middle Of The Night")

I'm gonna say that telekinetic powers isn't a good idea, it should be an item from the games not telekinetic powers, it's too vague... also your appearance is too vague, try looking for a picture. Also diviant art is a great place to look for pics of characters

Sorry man, Cucco is right. Also, I dont know if I like the idea of him being a 'Prince' weither or not I accept that depends on your backstory, if it is really good, I will accept it. I really would also prefer if you picked another name for his real name, too. Sheik is a cannon character.

There is merit to your idea... I will give it some thought.

You should have seen all the people who showed up for the interst check. More than half disappeared though..

Oh you should see this other RP website I used to be on. It was even worse when it came to getting RPs started. The GMs would either force everyone to make these stupidly long and detailed character sheets, I mean they wanted three paragraphs for personality, five for history, six likes and dislikes, it was bad. Or they would make the characters themselves and let other people pick the one they liked most. Then after people spent sometimes a couple hours making their characters and got accepted, it was usually the GM who left and stopped the RP from getting started.

And now you all know why I left it.

Alright, I was just thinking that no princes have been shown in-game while there are plenty of princesses named Zelda. Sheik was just an idea of a boy name that was passed down. And the psychic thing was that it seemed the only tangible thing a Zelda could pass down to her heirs. If you have any suggestions for an item, I would be most grateful.

I honestly don't see the point of Personality and History for a majority of the RPs I'm in. It's just an extraneous section that doesn't give any information that's immediately useful to the DM or other players as a majority of the time both of those sections end up getting changed mid-roleplay to suit the player's whims. Its kind of like Alignment in DnD where you're required to put it on there but unless people enforce it and/or make it a major plot point you can really just ignore it.

I know right? I'd much rather build my character through the RP. Characters have lives of their own and practically write themselves as stories go on. Trying to force out an entire personality beforehand is just so boring and pointless.

@Cyrania

Hey, about the item thing. What about going for good ol' light magic? It's something believable for Zelda to pass down. And magic is okay as long as you don't make it overpowered.

Here's attempt #2, decided to start from scratch again and go a different route, took a bit of a risk with this one so I won't be upset if it gets declined.

*Thinking intesifies*

It doesn't have to be something Zelda would pass down, it could be something else entirly...like...uhh....fishing rod?XD. Anyways, light magic works, illusions and blasts of light and such. If you can think of an item that might be better though.

Beleve it or not, I have had the same thoughts myself, but since this is my first time as a GM I went with the most common method.

Not bad, only thing is the last paragraph in history. It doesnt quite fit well with the story and a few other reasons. He would have no connection to the goddess of time and the part about the tear is to close to altering the story.

Remove the last paragraph of the history and I will aprove. Just expect some bone-headed skull jokes from me. YOHOHOHOHO!

This is unusual, but I would be willing to bet some of you have more expiriance GMing then me, so I may often ask your opinions.

With as many people as we have, should I allow two characters per person or will that be too much?

Unless there's more interest or you think it's absolutely necessary, I would hazard on too many right now. Perhaps after some time has passed?
