[OOC] Life in a different world [A Re:Zero setting / Fantasy RP] (Accepting!)

[Heckno12]

@Rune_Alchemist Isn't that only a problem if we die anyway?

[Rune_Alchemist]

The imploding heart? Trying to discuss the Return by Death will lead to it, obviously. But also talking about where they are from exactly will also trigger it. I think, at least. I remember GM-Chan saying that is gonna be a thing.

[Heckno12]

@Rune_Alchemist I thought she did too, but now that I'm looking for it I can't find it.

edit: Found it! I actually had to use the search function.

He said he was from a different place and we will do the same. Say it out loud, write it down or gesture it and your heart will explode XD

lets just say that you can tell people your from a different world but they likely won't believe you. Telling people you can die will kill you

@liferusher

Found it. Looks like we can tell people, but they likely won't believe us. Still gotta keep our mouth shut about the dying though.

Chieko's probably still not gonna blab that to most people though xD

EDIT: GRAAAAAAH.

Stupid ninjas.

[Heckno12]

@Rune_Alchemist Heheh, but it'll be really awkward once a few of our characters have done it. From what I remember we also can't remember who else dies if they have that power. If that's the case I bet each of our characters will probably all think they're the only ones it applies to.

@Heckno12

Yeeeah, that's some...pretty major mind fuckery right there.

Like, do the memories of them dying just get completely erased/replaced with someone else? That...actually could cause a lot of stuff to get messed up.

For example:
Tsuiho or Maria kills each other in a showdown. This has been sort of something that has been building up for the past...week or so ICly. Maria just killed a major assassin that does dirty work for the nobility. She knows that...yet, here she is popping up later like nothing happened? What about that other one from her 'memories' then? Did she spend this entire week chasing the wrong assassin or what?

For Tsuiho if she kills Maria, she knows she just killed the leader of the Iron Bell knights...but Maria is still alive later? Do her memories get replaced by Maria being some random Knight or something?

....am I explaining that right? I hope so xD
Maybe I misread something somewhere though, but eh xD

[Heckno12]

@Rune_Alchemist From what the post earlier said, that seems to about sum it up. I'm probably missing something too though, maybe they'd forget the whole fight? I mean otherwise it'd lead to an interesting partnership if they both knew the other couldn't die. They probably wouldn't just keep on fighting.

@Heckno12

Actually, it'd cause Tsuiho to fight a lot harder and not actually run the moment things go bad. Probably would increase her boldness and recklessness during missions...for some reasons you'll find out later ICly probably~

[Heckno12]

@Rune_Alchemist Even if she knew Maria couldn't die either? I mean, Ryan isn't gonna be like Subaru (in terms of fearing death after like the third time he died), but he probably won't be too excited for it to happen.

@Heckno12

Yep, whether Maria can actually die or not would be irrelevant. She can still kill her and remove her from play in order to complete her job. In fact, Tsuiho would greatly enjoy someone that couldn't die to 'play' with.

but I'm not gonna say any more until something happens ICly and I can reveal something about Tsuiho's personality that isn't completely obvious at the moment. Although, if she figures Maria can't die and she hasn't had her first death yet, its actually going to cause her to become more cautious in her work. She'd probably actually take less work in that case for some time.

@Rune_Alchemist

Well I cannot say that I am not intrigued. I think Maria would also have some sort of change. She would probably become a much harsher individual to the law, probably losing herself to what she believes to be "right", which would be far more zealous and tough. At least, if she constantly draws those short straws.

[Heckno12]

@ADamnFiddle I think that, without a doubt, Ryan will ask Maria if he can join the Iron Bell Knights. It'd probably secure him a place to stay, as well as a way to make good on the promise he made to help others.

[Rune_Alchemist]

@ADamnFiddle
We'll see - it'd be interesting to see how being unable to actually kill someone would play out and change people. At the moment though, they can't remember who died if one of them does in fact, dies. Still not sure how that's supposed to entirely work without getting extremely complicated, though xD

I think it might be better if the ones who can revive after dying remember, but the NPCs and everyone else don't. But eh, just my two cents xD

I'ma be off for bed tonight. Gonna give @6Slyboy6 a chance to reply with Grian before I post with Chieko again.

@Heckno12

And yeeah, Chieko's probably gonna do that too, especially if Maria helps her with her Grian problem xD

[Heckno12]

@Rune_Alchemist@ADamnFiddle I could see that being good for story purposes, especially near the beginning. Like say, if Ryan died while under Maria's protection I'm sure she'd be a bit upset. But then, seeing him and his almighty shopping cart an hour or two later would be a serious "wait a second, what the fuck?" moment.

@Heckno12

Like the mighty phoenix, we shall rise from the ashes and become stronger.

Also I would imagine that Maria would take any sort of help she could get from possible recruits, though there would be at least some sort of physical evaluation she would require considering she wouldn't want to just send you all on your merry ways to death.

[Heckno12]

@ADamnFiddle Well Ryan can handle a bow I guess, that doesn't seem to be the most common of weapons in Lugnica. That being said, it'd be a good way for Maria to show the new recruits her divine blessing (and perhaps teach them exactly what those are). Ryan isn't exactly built to be a swordsman though, he's more of a supporting role in terms of battle. (I do imagine that adding wind magic to an arrow could make it pretty dangerous though)

@Heckno12

I'd imagine that the bow would be seen as a cowardly weapon in certain areas, seeing as most anyone that weren't the English during the medieval era saw bows to be a cowardly weapon such as the Germans and the Franks.

However, I think that at the very least Maria could take you as apprentices. Until you are able to hold your own anyway.

[Heckno12]

@ADamnFiddle Eh, you're probably not wrong. It could still be useful though, especially when it comes to non-humans/demi-humans. For the moment it's kinda the only skill Ryan has.

@Heckno12

Yeah, no doubt useful. Bowmen always have a place on most battlefields for a reason.

But yeah, I don't think we can continue without Grian rn, unless someone else wants to get in on the fun.

@ADamnFiddle

Give him some time. I can send one of my npcs and we still have new boyyyyy that isnt in any interactions yet.
