So, can I have him as the graveyard keeper, I can't create my character so I'll put it in as soon as I can

[T Risket]

Making decent progress on the new kid in town, I have a question for @MissCapnCrunch though: does the new person have to take over the farm? I'm fine with that if that's the case. Just wondering because I took a peek at the map (love that we're using the map from HM64 btw) and it says that one of the farms is the new person's.

@Simple Unicycle

I can say that was the original idea along with some other things, but we didn't want to box anyone in character wise when it came to the specifics so we just didn't go into detail. I would go ahead and PM captain your own ideas/talk about her ideas if you want.

I am struggling on the theme song. I want to do a Broadway song but gotta find one.

”I’ll be honest, I kind of do. My father told me about them when I got this place a few years back and I’ve been going on my mother’s advice to the temple once every year, in the Summer to pay my respects and offer up a offering. They guide everything in the village, from food to how many customers I get so it’ll be wise not to anger them.”

It’s been an interesting turn of events for Javier.

Originally from the village, Javier was born in the same inn he runs today, his father owned the inn from his grandfather who passed away roughly 2 years before Javier was ever born. The oldest out of 3 kids that the Mendez clan would have, from the onset of life Javier had a interest in running the Inn.

His mother was a up and rising lawyer, but early on in life he saw her a lot. She would fly out to the airport and take a car ride into the village to meet father and son, for months at a time. But as she became increasingly influential in the law world, her time to spend with her village family became less. She did however prefer that her kids experience the village rather then the city.

As years went by, Javier, his father and his siblings ran the inn. At times it was tough, but they’d managed to pull through. Javier left the village once he turned 18 and went to the city on his father and mother’s advice to pursue a degree in business. City life at first was a culture shock for young Javier but as time went on he acquired some tastes. From cigars, to booze to even reading fine literature and the classics. These like he attributes to his time at university. To this day he still maintains connections with a few friends and city goers.

Once completing university, Javier’s father sought to expand his empire. So he asked Javier if he wanted to stay in the city or the village. At that time, Javier felt like the city was the way to go. Yet at the same time he missed the peace of the village. He missed just being able to do his own thing and be bothered occasionally. So, he packed his bags, and choosing to pick peace over the bustle and the big city life he moved back. His father signed the paperwork and later founded a motel for wealthy businessmen in the city. It’s popular mainly due to it’s excellent room service.

Javier’s siblings later moved to the city to better pursue their goals, they come back from time to visit Javier but other then that he’s on his own for the most part. Enjoying life in the village.

@T Risket

Actually, after having mulled over it for a bit, I like the idea of the new person taking over the farm over my original idea (portray him as a drifter who lives off of odd jobs, see: Cliff from 64 and Back to Nature/(More) Friends of Mineral Town), so I'll just stick with that.

[T Risket]

@Simple Unicycle Can't wait to see what you do with the character. Like I said though, don't feel pressured into a set in stone role. We really don't want that!

[Howilng Zinogre]

So i tried on my tablet and phone and when i try to use the character creator tool it just keeps telling me th plugin isnt supported.

@Howilng Zinogre

I am really sorry to hear that man-I hate to say I will have to wait for Capn to get on though, not sure myself what to do. :( Super sorry man!

[T Risket]

Well guys, I hate to say it but I have to go to this company party thing for a few hours. I will probably be back on later tonight though and I also totally expect Captain back on at some point as well, though I am just saying that based on her usual activity.

Cant wait to read whatever activity happens!

[Howilng Zinogre]

its alright hope something gives soon though, gonna keep trying

[Sewer Rat]

Yes the cap is back

[T Risket]

@Howilng Zinogre

If it really comes down to it you can give me a description of what you are goin for (kinda keepin in mind what you have seen so far avatar wise) and I will make a couple avatars up and you could pick the best matching one? Just an idea.

I gotta go though, later people!

@Indieman

Hi there! I see you post your character in the bin- I would like for everyone to post their character in the OOC first! I posted mine, and the co-gm posted his in the bin because they have already been accepted. This is fine and you're definitely not in trouble by any means- it was my fault for not reiterating this. We will look at your character and let you know if you're accepted :)

@Typhon

Hmm, that would be an interesting role! I'm okay with it. :) If you want to choose one of the available homes on the list- feel free.

@Simple Unicycle

Farm area yes, however- if you don't want to be a farmer there is no need for it. Hence why I allowed the buildings on the property to be labeled on your own. You have a lot of freedom and creativity :) Feel free to use it! IF you want to make a deal with the user who wanted to make a vinyard- I wouldn't mind if you give her your land and then take one of the available homes instead. Your choice.

[MissCapnCrunch]

I'm sorry you guys, I was making dinner and a little overwhelmed with posts- sorry if I missed your question comments in my last reply, just trying to read through everything!

[MissCapnCrunch]

@Howilng Zinogre

If needed, I can create your character based on what you'd like. I know it's not ideal but I'm willing to work with you until it's perfect.

[Sewer Rat]

Just one last things, I choose 6 for the graveyard, has a family home but mostly lives in the inn

[MissCapnCrunch]

@Typhon

That is perfectly fine with me :)

@MissCapnCrunch

I like the sound of that idea. @baraquiel, would you want the farm land for the vineyard?
