@Gonzo@Jinxer@Lillium THE GANG IS BACK

So, I just wanted to ask, will people be posting pictures in their posts because that seemed to be something popular in iwaku and I wasn't a fan of it.

@wolverbells

Pictures?

@wolverbells HERESY

It is by no means a requirement. People can if they want but... in complete (snobbish) honesty, I think it's lazy not to use one's own words.

<Snipped quote by Jinxer>

Thank youuu! I'm actually excited for this.
Little questions.

Can our characters die in this RP?
Will ther be a story-guidance by the GM? You know like, "guards come around the corner and take you back to the room" or whatever?
When we do make actions, will we decide how they go out or the GM? Exmple, when I go "Myriam tries to break open a locked door", will I be able to say it works or doesn't or is that up to the GM?
Do we (IC and OOC) know where (country/city) we are?

I'm sorry for the questions. Not wanting to be a bother.

@KahleenCuthald

Yes, they can, if you wish.
I will guide the story at points but I prefer to be a soft-touch GM with an over-arching but flexible plot in mind. I essentially have a vague idea for three parts to the RP (and they are different to the three parts we've done before, for those who were there).
Again, I'm fairly soft-touch. I'll guide where necessary and step in to stop any events going against my nefarious schemes but other than that (especially to begin with) whatever goes as long as it's within the spirt of the RP. Anything outrages and you'll be getting a passive aggressive PM from me!
IC, no we do not. OOC, yes. 'Tis America.

I have a profile in Iwaku, usually its pictures of the character surrounded by really fancy borders and fluff.

[wolverbells]

Yeah like people will make a post, and add a picture in after almost every paragraph depicting their 'reaction'. I'm not a fan of it because it's really distracting for me. Too much going on in one post.

For CS's I think it's great! Buuuuuut IC posts meh.

Name: Theodor Kiefer
Age: 17,
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Appearance:
Standing at 5’4’’, Theo towers over most, if not all, middle schoolers….and that’s about it. The hope of an inevitable growth spurt has long since passed in his mind, nor does his thin (almost girlish) frame give him much hope in broadening out anytime soon. He does try to compensate for his waifish appearance though, hiding inside large dark poofy jackets and baggy jeans.
History: City life never sat well with Theo, though he’d be the first to admit his bias was almost unnaturally strong. After all, it’s hard to hold a high opinion of a place like New York when you spend the first seventeen years of your life hunkered down in portions of its abandoned subway system in one of many underground homeless communities. Dementia had taken his mother’s mind early into her pregnancy, and where his dad was in all of this he could not begin to guess. School was never a significant part of his life, though he did eventually learn to read. Instead most of his days where spent with other homeless kids, hustling tourist for money or exploring the vast underground network of tunnels spanning beneath New York. That all changed when, one day, he slipped down a drainage pipe. For all intents and purpose, the fall should have killed him. He can still remember the cold rush of air as he fell, the hot white sparks that leapt from his skin as he pawed at the coppertube for some purchase. Though mostly he remembers the way his ribs cracked as he smashed to a stop after the 400 foot fall. As he limped back into ‘town’ he was met with immediate suspicion, the worried homeless running him off, not wanting whatever trouble that caused him to survive to befall them. Unsure where to go, Theo limped topside, taking shelter for the night in a bustop, where someone collected his unconscious body.
Power:
Ferromagnetism: Able to produce and control strong magnetic fields withing four feet of his body. Only affects objects containing significan amounts of ferromagnetic materials (iron, nickle, exctera).
Coin Accuracy: Highly accurate using coins as projectiles (propelled by strong magnetic forces). Can manage near perfect accuracy at about 1000 yards in ideal conditions (no wind, high visibility, excreta) This accuracy seems to ONLY apply to coins, however.

[Jinxer]

@wolverbells I'm the same. I prefer people to write as it makes them think more about how to describe it and you can get a better picture of what's actually going on.

Also, I've changed the name. Julius is dead, long live Arthur! (thankfully the Fate/Stay peoples have made a male Saber who's image fits perfectly!)

@Jinxer *Nudge nudge* I sent you a PM if you didn't see it. *Sinks off into the shadows again*

[ProxyInc]

@wolverbells I've seen CS's that had a whole filler image to surround the lovely glowing texts that wasn't complete without added shadows. I'm not even sure how they managed to figure out all that extra stuff but I'm old lol

Its all just a bit too much for me.

[wolverbells]

We're already on page 10 of the ooc

[Jinxer]

@wolverbells Yeah maybe I should, y'know, get on with the IC or something a GM like myself is meant to do.

[Temporary]

@Jinxer This is probably a good idea XD

Christ, page 10...

[Jinxer]

No one kill me but I'm going to cop out and use some of the OOC intro and then post my character's first moments so y'all have a starting point.

Recycling ftw >.<

[Benzaiten]

I'm weirdly nervous for this *hides in shell* ahh why do I feel like my poor character will have no friends and feel lonely lol

[Thundercrash]

@KahleenCuthald If it helps, I can promise that won't be the case :) Provided that Myriam doesn't fuck with Stasya's head more than it already has been :)

[Temporary]

@KahleenCuthald You wont need to fuck with Mayuri's head... She's gullible as it is already XD

[ProxyInc]

I'm pretty excited to see everyone's intro post.

@HecateProxy

Don't worry, Myriam has no idea how to use her power at all. She doesn't even know she has a power lol. We can all be friends!! *pulls into group hug*

[Lillium]

Or we could... you know, get a Skype group like back in the day o.o Personally not a fan of refreshing the page every five seconds. And there's no easy notification system like on Iwaku.

[Jinxer]

@Lillium I am booting it up approximately... now.

Oh, also, the IC is up. Y'know, in case anyone wanted to post.
