@Dawnscroll They're "placeholders". The status of the RP says Full and I told the same thing to someone who inquired on the first page of the OOC. I'm sorry for the lost effort, man, but we're full. I can let you know if an opening ever comes about, but yeah.

[Bright_Ops]

For those interested, Magus's second sign is in Twili... and reads "If you can read this sign, we should talk."

[RBYDark]

@Baklava Personally don't mind the idea of that being the distinction. Sure makes more sense than "so the two players have differing tastes in aesthetics..." and also explains why @DearTrickster's Jillian has summoning magic while Ekra doesn't - two subspecies.

[Bright_Ops]

@RBYDark@DearTrickster

Wonder what a Zora or Goron Skullkid would look like...

[RBYDark]

......seaweed-theme and rock-like respectively?

[Baklava]

@RBYDark Alright then, cool. So that's settled.

@Bright_Ops Lol. I dunno about Gorons, but the Zora surely turn into Squidkids instead of Skullkids.

[DearTrickster]

Working on Jillian's intro post :).

[Chanda]

My post is ready to go whenever. I plan to be at the opposite end of the rotation from FM whenever possible in order to be more conducive to plot relevant updates. Boring logistics, I know, but it's what makes Chanda such a legend.

[Baklava]

@DearTrickster OMG I love Brandi Carlile. Fshaw.

[DearTrickster]

@DearTrickster OMG I love Brandi Carlile. Fshaw.

@Baklava

Yeah I love her too! Her voice and writinggg. <3 Love.

[Baklava]

@The 42nd Gecko Hey Gecko-- are you workin' on a sheet?

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Baklava I am indeed. I'm nearly done with my second character (background is only thing left), after which getting Veitaru up and running should be a formatting and tweaking job quickly done.

I'm off work tomorrow, so it should be easy to get done.

[RBYDark]

I'll work on redoing Ekra's old intro later today? 9+ hour shift, but it's when I have the most time.

[Bright_Ops]

I'll let at least one more person post before I post again.

[Dervish]

I'll let at least one more person post before I post again.

@Bright_Ops

Probably would be best for all intros to get out of the way and the plot moved forward by Baklava before we get into the social aspects.

[Baklava]

@Bright_Ops@Dervish Honestly, I don't mind if there's a bit of chit chat going on before everyone is gathered. Even if it gets heated, Lethe has her way of demanding attention when the time comes.

In the meantime, bonus points if anyone knows which game Kamo and Linda are from without googling it. ;)

I'll have Felicia arrive in my next post. I just thought it would be funnier if she walked in on the squad after most of them were assembled.

[Dervish]

@Baklava Hokay dookie! Sounds like a plan.

"Gruncle" Jaege Lange

"Gruncle" Jaege Lange

.::𝔸𝕘𝕖::.

57

.::ℝ𝕒𝕔𝕖::.

Hylian

.::𝔾𝕖𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕣::.

Male

.::𝔸𝕡𝕡𝕖𝕒𝕣𝕒𝕟𝕔𝕖::.

Jaege is 7'4" and built like a great white topped mountain. He is a wild haired man whose white mane shows his age, even if the rest of his physique does not. While he often wears a plain straw hat and white tunic to block the sun, he is definitely not afraid to take off his shirt. His face, though one might not notice it under the beard, wears the proud scars of many smiles and in very strong laugh lines.

.::𝕋𝕙𝕖𝕞𝕖 𝕊𝕠𝕟𝕘::.

Main Theme

.::ℙ𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕠𝕟𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕪::.

In seven words: Gregarious, Fearless, Forgiving, Responsible, Loves a Challenge

Gregarious: "Put away that frown." Jaege is an outgoing man who loves to smile and loves to laugh, and wishes these things for all around him.

Fearless: "Haha, good one!" Jaege is not one to be intimidated, or daunted by any challenge.

Forgiving: "Admitting you are wrong is hard, so never make it harder! He is a man who forgives and asks for forgiveness easily. He is not one to let the sins of the father hang upon the child.

Responsible: "No reason to fear failure, only fear you let it be last thing you do." Jaege may not sweat the small details, but when the stakes are raised, he'll not budge.

Loves a Challenge: "Any labor can be made a game, if you set your heart to it." Always one to give it his best, Jaege is always down for a physical challenge. He not always so good at games of wit, but he will give it his best shot.

.::𝔹𝕒𝕔𝕜𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕪::.

Jaege was born the first son of a woodworker, by a few minutes. While both sons were taught the trade by Papa Lange, Jaege had his mind more focused on other matters, more interested in hauling the wood to the shop than the shopping itself. Physical, rambunctious, and larger than even his own large family, Jaege was quickly king of the hill in any contest of strength and wrestling, even over kids a few years older than him. And he was a jerk about it sometimes, but over time, learned the error of his ways.

His brother taking up the family trade, Jaege put his muscles to work, doing pretty much any hard labor around Kakariko but mining, being too large to fit in the mine, though he often worked with moving the rocks once they were out of the mine. Jaege was ultimately an unambitious man completely happy to work hard, make friends, and help others.

His younger sister got him involved in the orphanage in Kakariko, where playing with the children and helping out with the tasks there became his family. Jaege never sought out romance, and it never came for him, so he was never married. To the children, he was Uncle Jaege, and as time and the generations turned, he became Great Uncle Jaege, or Gruncle Jaege, friend to many.

Recently, one of those friends, Ilam, a Shiekah who had married one of the girls who grew up in the orphanage, entrusted him with looking after Veitaru, their adopted Gerudo child. Jaege is not one to turn down such a request from a friend. However, Ilam has not returned, and Veitaru has told Jaege of strange dreams she has been having. The request to venture to the graveyard does not seem too much trouble, and so Jaege has accompanied her to keep her out of any trouble she might turn up.

.::𝕊𝕜𝕚𝕝𝕝𝕤/𝕋𝕒𝕝𝕖𝕟𝕥𝕤::.

• Big, Strong, Tough (PS) (9)
  
  • "I am the strongest in Hylia! Save for Papa Lange, of course." Jaege is a HUGE man, with ample strength and muscle mass. Powerful and enduring, Jaege's claim might be quite reasonable if not for the existence of Gorons and Monsters.
• Wrestling (FS) (8)
  
  • "Those who need iron boots to wrestle Gorons not trying hard enough!" Whether it is the children at the orphanage, or the Gorons from the mountain, Jaege does not refuse a challenge. Jaege has great strength, but that is not all he has, he has a keen sense for balance, and knocking others off theirs. Hard knocks and butting heads do not distract him from keeping an eye on whose weight is where.
• Pure Soul (MS) (8)
  
  • "The heart is the strongest muscle!" Jaege is not a man who can be frightened. He is not a man you can tempt with money or power. If your spell can be broken by will, courage, and resistance to temptation, it will find no purchase on Jaege.
• Lifting (PS) (7)
  
  • "Brother, I most certainly do Lift!" Having spent a lifetime hauling, lifting, and doing various hard labor, Jaege knows how to wear a load for carrying, to spot where to shove to shift a boulder, and general good mechanical practical sense. The young ones always wear themselves out, relying on their youth and strength, but Jaege is a wise man who uses the age of wisdom along with strength that hasn't left him yet to achieve anything!
• Throwing (PS) (7)
  
  • "If you can still see what you threw, you did not throw it hard enough!" Jaege likes the old sport of "get a giant log, and heave it as far as you can, or a boulder, or generally anything heavy." And he's quite good at it. He's also pretty good with a skipped rock, having shown many a child how. However, this is more of a practical type throwing than a fighting type throwing, as he throws for orientation and distance, not accuracy and leading a target.
• Camping (SS) (5)
  
  • "Camp in a bad tent, wake up in bad shape." Long ago, Jaege was drafted into the forces of the Hylian Army with another land petty border squabble. He never did remember much of the fighty bits of training, because those lessons never got reinforced with actually fighting, but the other skills, like keeping your tent dry, lighting a fire, and other logistical trials of the common soldier were definitely practiced. Jaege still camps from time to time with the kids.
• Woodworking (PS) (4)
  
  • "A little patience and some scraps to wrap them together, and even the most battered sticks will hold." Though he never decided to take up the same profession as his brother Brunhold, Jaege helped out many times, and they've collaborated together. Though his brother is definitely the expert compared to Jaege, Jaege certainly isn't helpless at the task.

.::𝔾𝕠𝕒𝕝𝕤::.

Jaege wishes to make well on his promise to keep Veitaru safe, and find his good friend he made the promise to safe and sound. Jaege would not mind saving the world while he's at it, many of his favorite people live there!

.::𝕀𝕟𝕧𝕖𝕟𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕪::.

• 1 Empty Bottle
• Leather Flask
• Small Metal Flask of alcohol
• Harness for Carrying, Pulling, and Lifting
• Three foot length of light chain
• Plenty of straps

[Baklava]

@The 42nd Gecko Oh, man. He's a glorious specimen of legend. I'm so glad you've given me a reason to post this video:



He's accepted. Braum support is best support. And I'm always going to envision him with that voice. XD
