[OOC] Castaway - OC Edition

[BogeyDope]

@AbandonedIntel What about this guy: @AppreciateSolar

FYI dude, the whole "hardly ever speaks" bit sounds cool, but it's really hard to pull off and still have good character interaction. Trust me, I've tried.

@Thundercrash

Crap, I didn't notice until you brought him up. Thanks for that, BTW.

And yeah I don't think a silent character would work. I'm gonna give him another look before I give him approval.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

Part of why I had to make Mark Theron sociable but awkward and dislikable enough that people only deal with him because they need to.

[Thundercrash]

I have a character in another RP who doesn't talk herself, but instead uses a combination of sign language and a text-to-speech app on her phone.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

Clever, @Thundercrash. The "truly silent protagonist" I could never get behind, just as I do not play "boastful fools" or get along with them.

[Thundercrash]

@The Harbinger of Ferocity I always feel like "boastful fools" in stories are just asking to be called out.

It also occurs to me that I might have sounded like one.

[BogeyDope]

The RP's gonna start tomorrow. I'll mention you all once the RP has started! :D

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

You, @Thundercrash? No, not at all from my experience with you thus far, as limited as that is. I meant it as a general statement for characters and people, the former being a more common offense here in that there are some characters who boast just how great they are.

Most of my best are absolutely and impossibly flawed that whatever strengths they have might not be worth the curse of everything else. For this roleplay though? I settled on something less extreme than that and much more focused on the humanity at hand.

[BogeyDope]

ATTENTION! The RP has begun! All aircraft! You are cleared to en-gage!

@Billsomething @Xandrya @The Harbinger of Ferocity @Thundercrash

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

Expect a post from myself late this evening, given I will be spending the entire day travelling. This works well enough as it is too, Mark might be a bit disoriented for a time, but I do hope I do not find myself too far behind.

[Thundercrash]

@The Harbinger of Ferocity@AbandonedIntel@Billsomething@Xandrya I'm going to wait until after everyone else posts, because mine is going to cause a metric shit-ton of drama for everyone. Not an imperial shit-ton, those things are just complicated and mess up all the conversions. You have to be specific about these things.

Also note, people CANNOT see Adrienne yet. Part of my post will when everyone does.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

As I imagined this oddity would create even more issue than there was before. I think we all expected that much.

[Thundercrash]

@The Harbinger of Ferocity Well, we wouldn't want this story to be boring, would we?

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

I believe crashing a plane is quite a start. I can only imagine topping that requiring some true and unusual material, which we do have - no offense intended. After all, the time after the crash is the story at hand.

[Thundercrash]

*grins evilly* heh-heh-heh.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

@Billsomething, join us if you will.

[BogeyDope]

@The Harbinger of Ferocity @Thundercrash @Xandrya If someone's holding up the RP don't hesitate to skip them and act as if they are still knocked out, and still in the plane unconscious. Go ahead and post, Thunder.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

As I had hoped, @AbandonedIntel and I will do so where appropriate.

[AdobeFlash]

Are we still accepting? Because I would like to join

[BogeyDope]

@AdobeFlash Yeah we are, the IC post can have you wake up after the plane crash. Go ahead and post your character here in the OOC and I'll approve it if it's good. :)
