@Ellion

Romans 12, "I beseech you brethren by the mercies of GM that ye present your bodiessheets, a living sacrifice wholly, Holy acceptable unto GM, which is thy reasonable service."

I bid thee fare-well and @Lunaeria I probably will not be joining later on because I get uncomfortable joining in the middle of a story and can never commit to it.

However, a lot of the ideas I saw on here inspired me to create my own avatar rp, so look for it!

@Lunaeria Should I place my sheet in the CHAR tab then?

@Ellion 'Twas a pleasure competing with you

Oh yeah, all accepted sheets can be placed in the CHAR tab.

@Lunaeria

Thanks, am very honored!

As for the waiting, it's no problem, I enjoyed the meme-stage whilst waiting. I'll be placing my character on the Character's tab now.

So, GM: do you have a date scheduled for us starting?

I'm sorry, I didn't see this earlier. But a DATE? PLANS? COMPETENT GMING?

Um, I'm going to assume that a weekend would be the best for everyone? I plan to have the cast finalized by Friday at the VERY latest so depending upon how long that takes I can open the roleplay either on Friday if we get it finished sooner and on Saturday if that is not the case.

Essentially our opening plan with my post, a post from the Avatar demonstrated some sick bending abilities (similar to Korra's firebending test only EVERYTHING while the instructors watch from comfy seats) after a post from the instructors with some feedback then we'll probably time skip to the next day and the airship where they can get to know each other for a few posting cycles and then BOOM the airship crashes and then after some juicy action and a fight scene. We'll make way with the plot and after the group decides to help there will be a party in the Avatar's honor and FROM THERE...we'll you'll see.

I realize that most of that wasn't an answer to your question but there you go anyway.

@Lunaeria

Ooh I like the agenda we have haha.

Got a question though, would it be fine if the bending masters were to be acquaintances or something close?

Edit: Oh even a short 'character impression' sheet(s) would make the world feel settled too!

Aw yiss, Avatar partay

EDIT: @Inertia I was gonna ask you if there was a chance our characters might have met once before, since they're both travellers

@Inertia Generally speaking the bending masters might know OF each other, but they shouldn't be particularly acquainted. From the looks of the characters so far as well it seems that most of them were traveling or solo agents anyway so it would probably feel more natural if they were to be meeting for the first time. The White Lotus is being especially secretive with this selection of agents because the Avatar is starting to mature nicely (like a fine cheese) and so San is more desperate than ever to get his hands on her.

As for a character impressions sheet; it is coming! There will be a small journal like section for characters to write and update about how they feel about one another - first or third person is fine. I'm just waiting until the cast is final and so people don't need to start worrying about character relations etc only for someone to drop out/not get the role!

@banjoanjo

I was just gonna mention that haha, there's a good chance they crossed path once.

@Lunaeria

Ahh alright, sorry for rushing you!
Just a bit curious because @banjoanjo's character is also a traveller, and there may be a chance that they've met once.

Here's a crazy thought that might be a little fun. It's kind of a waste to have players who wants to participate and then have them wait or not play at all. How about playable enemies?

@Halvtand dude!! I'd be down for evil...I mean enemies

Yes. Yeeeessssss. Kneel before your new avatar! KNEEEEEL!



@WanderBug Seriously though I could easily have seen things going your way on this one. You were truly a commendable and honorable rival.

@Inertia That would be fine. I mean that on the whole they should not be overall familiar with one another. One or two connections would be fine so long as they aren't too intimate but they shouldn't walk into the room being like "HEY GUYS FEELS LIKE ITS ONLY YESTERDAY!!!! 8D!"

@ProPro

Man that movie, remember how supes basically killed Zod. It was off the heezy.

@Lunaeria

Alright got it, thanks for the info haha.

Huh. Been quiet today.

...

*Checks watch*

...

DANCE SLAVES! YOUR AVATAR COMMANDS IT!

By which I mean I am eager to get some discussions going as to potential developments, relationships, so on and so forth.

ALSO!

Has a crush on someone on the team. Good luck finding out who it is.

Calling it right now, she has a crush on Bukotsu. Or Pangu. One of them.

And Fan is up and completed! Sorry for the small novel! Let me know if I should change anything. Took a few liberties.

@Dawnscroll The only thing I would point out is that the masters aren't supposed to already know one another, and Kariya's profile seems to imply she's a relatively recent addition to the White Lotus, so... How would Fan have a 4 year pai sho losing streak with her? :P

@ProPro Personally, I threw that in moreso for a laugh, but according to Kariya profile she's been around the Order long enough to be known as the undisputed master... I like to imagine a year Pai Sho tournament that's played with utter seriousness.

Like, Yugioh levels of seriousness.

@Dawnscroll That's how we'll defeat president San! With a children's card game pai sho challenge!

@Lunaeria

So me and @Inertia were talking and we made up a scenario where our characters could have met a few years prior to the main storyline. It sets up a sort of friendly rivalry/dislike between the two. Tell us if it's ok to use.

Shailesh, lacking the common sense of normal earthbenders because of his constant travelling, wanders through the desert and drinks cactus juice out of thirst or curiosity. What ensues is a hallucination-induced bending frenzy through a local village. Kazuno, who happened to be in the town at that time, tries to stop any further property damage with her own bending. Her general recklessness only makes it worse. The ensuing fight destroys much of the town and they are both forced to perform community service, during which they bicker all the time. When the mandatory service is done, they part on unfriendly terms, eager to put the incident behind them. A few years pass and they have both mostly forgotten about it. Until they're forced to work together again on the same team.

Please tell us what you think!
