A short post, but I really needed to get something done.

I hope it's alright, at least.

Keeping up with forgetting the mention in post.

@Rin@Raineh Daze@KoL@PKMNB0Y@VitaVitaAR

My post will probably be up tomorrow. Depends how long it takes me to do Eva's section.

No worries on my part. I'll likely move Nanoha after Eva, anyway.

Dropping out of this game because I am finding it hard to write for Cagliostro, sorry.

Apologies for the lateness here as well. These finals weeks only get more draining as the semesters go.

If I don't post later tonight, I'll be sure to post sometime this next week.

I got a post as Nanoha.

Please, skip Tohka for this round of posts, I'm really not being sure what to do with her at the moment.

Oho! I know who I'd want to be here... Donnel from fire emblem awakening, having been reclassed as hero about 5 times. He shall be unstoppable!

It would be my utmost pleasure to join. Care to let me join your little activity?

please please i'm desperate this is going to be fun

Would be nice to get some more people into this :)

@PKMNB0Y

My character sheets are mostly complete, and I'll most likely be done with them by tomorrow. You can find them in the CHAR tab.

i'm so excited to join hehehehehe

@cool beaner

Shouldn't you have waited before posting your character sheets on the Characters Tab?

EDIT:

I see that you are new around here. So, let me explain it: It's kind of an implicit rule to not post anything on the Characters Tab or the IC Tab until you are officially a member of an RP or the GM states that you can.

I don't know if @PKMNB0Y will have a problem with it or not, but most other GMs would have issues with it. That's something for you to look forward in the future.

@PKMNB0Y So many ideas.

I know you said no original characters but how about custom like in Skyrim?

My other 2 ideas are Yoshitsune Minamoto from the Genji games and Ryuk.

Hrm... Okay, let's see what's on the table.

@Rabidporcupine: I'm fairly certain that a lot of people in this RP say 'fuck off' to stat caps anyways and would probably sweep aside Priam's horde on Lunatic+ without a second thought, but details. Scale of power is vastly different jumping from a FE game to something like this, after all.

@cool beaner: Well, I kiiinda have a problem with it, but since you're new and you have an idea on what to do now, I'll let it slide for now.

The characters, on the other hand, are a different story.

First: Rohan. Oh, Rohan. As much as I love the guy and how much of a troll he can be, Heaven's Door is just too damn powerful to be used within an RP, and nerfing Heaven's Door in any way detracts from the character... In a sense. Have to decline.

As for Dimple... Okay, putting aside how he isn't exactly the type of character to be particularly... I dunno, fun to "play" without the right people and powers, I guess? Uh...
Mind control and hypnosis is a) already a niche that has been filled out (a little) by Misaki, whose own ability has been nerfed and delineated to the point where I can't be super indiscriminate about the whole mind control thing. Removing player agency without going through the proper channels is EXTREME no-no.

Next...
@Rockin Strings: No, custom characters fall under the umbrella of "custom" (and they usually become unbeatable forces of nature anyways so... No.)
No Ryuk. That's not a question up for debate. No Ryuk.
Yoshitsune... I don't think I've ever seen anything about the series in question, so I need a way to frame power and abilities before all else.

's about it.

@PKMNB0Y Yeah, no, I was beginning to have second thoughts myself. It was mostly because of Donnels apparently supernatural dodging ability, Sol, and the fact that he's all around super likable.

Now I'm thinking the Hero of Kvatch, super awesome, pretty much no ability in the speech skill. It'll be great.

That's a blank slate character who doesn't qualify for this RP. ^^;

@PKMNB0Y So I can't be an orc dovahkiin? I wouldn't have Ryuk doing anything, just talking. As for Yoshitsune, Youtube Genji Dawn of the Samurai.

@PKMNB0Y

I mean, I ended up posting in the CHAR tab as a sheer accident. I'll come up with a more balanced character to use soon enough.

@Rockin Strings: Statement stands. No, no, and if you're too lazy to even give me a basic overview of the character's abilities why should I be active enough to have to seek it for myself, especially when you'd be writing the form anyways?
I may sound like a jerk right now, and I probably am, but I expect at least some modicum of effort from people aside from "just youtube it" being shoved in my face, since I'm literally only maaaybe seeing gameplay without any concrete information other than maybe "slashy slashy". It's the effort that counts, man, and I'm seeing none of it here.
Besides, didn't it just get reiterated that we're accepting no 'blank-slate' characters? Like, less than three posts ago reiterated? Do I have to put a clause in the OP saying that YES, IT DOES INDEED INCLUDE MAIN CHARACTERS FROM THE ELDER SCROLLS?
Actually, while I'm at it, I should make clear why Ryuk cannot, should not, and WILL not be accepted. Him being in here means the existence of the Death Note, which, bloody hell, is an INSTANT KILL BOOK. Like, something like that in an RP is a goddamn MACGUFFIN, not some toy to be whipped out willy-nilly. You give that to a character, LITERALLY ANY CHARACTER, and they become a priority threat to be removed INSTANTLY. You leave the Death Note up, you are giving a person the literally WRITE ANY CHARACTER/RPER THEY DO NOT LIKE OUT OF EXISTENCE. No, I don't care if Ryuk is only talking, if he arrives, it's the entire package deal, which means there is LITERALLY NO FUN ALLOWED UNTIL IT IS GONE. And it that's gone, Ryuk's gone. Moot point.
And no, I am not going to be using something as busted as 'the power to instantly remove any person from existence' as a plot device anyways, nor would I want to. It's cheap, it's tacky, it's a boring, half-assed way of pushing people to remove a threat which, for all intents and purposes, is a walking existential crisis waiting to happen.
(Besides, it's only interesting as a plot device in Death Note because L and Light exist; Death Note was a psychological thriller, not a goddamn 'Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe' thing.)
-deep breath-
Geez, if anything ticks me off, it's people telling me I should do the work they should be putting up instead. Guess that bled over. Anyways. Next.
(And yes, I am irate right now.)

@cool beaner: Yeah, I know, I saw the stuff above. I was giving you a pass because you're new to the site. =w=;;
In any case, yeah. Figure out something that can either be brought into line with the other characters (we're surprisingly high-power overall, but there's still a limit) or nerfed into power. Underpowered can also be brought up to power over the course of the RP, but you'd have to be willing to slowly build to that point.

"Would only talk" is only remotely interesting if the character in question is, in fact, possessed of anything interesting to say. Ryuk is not. Ryuk set up the entirety of Death Note because he was bored and mostly just sat and watched. And even if he said soemthing someone might want to respond to, the entire concept of DN shinigami is that you cannot interact with them in basically any way.

In other words, he's no better than just tossing OOC posts IC and hoping someone wants to do something with them.
