[OOC] In Search of Gaea: A Seafaring Fantasy Adventure

[DruSM157]

Theme songs? Pshaw. My opening post has multiple song changes! Muahahaha!

[DruSM157]

If you want a taste of the music that I've been listening to whilst preparing this RP:

MUZAK

[May96]

Some really nice picks there. Personally, I've been listening to a bunch of Xenoblade music while writing stuff up.

@May96

Nice! Xenoblade 2 was actually a big inspiration for the world. Salvagers and Divers are quite similar after all!

DON'T FORGET ME

[Fading Memory]

I made a convenient little list, then when I return you guys start a new page. Why do I even try :P

[mickilennial]

I'll try to finish up the CS (among other things) either tomorrow or after a nap.

I was getting some major Xenoblade 2 vibes from this, so I'm glad to see that it wasn't just me! Always a good thing to hear that something's inspired by the Xenoblade series. However, if there aren't soldiers that are yelling 'don't forget me', then there might be a bit of a problem. Jus' sayin', because those are always highlights.

Anyways, for my character sheet, I'm planning to make a few changes in eight to twelve hours or so. In particular I'll probably be revamping her Aether Abilities - and maybe adding a few more tabs that should flesh her out a little more, motivation wise and all. I'll be putting any changes in bold text on my form, just in case some of it's been read already, too. Won't be able to get these changes in immediately because school and all that, but I'll have them in... soon!

[DruSM157]

Awesome everyone! Don't stress, it's only Wednesday, so there's still time til the Friday deadline. Plus, it's more time to make more POVs for this opening post, give more detail of the island and of other locations that appear in the opening, and do more stupid stuff that my friends love.

Like flashbacks. >:)

@DruSM157Good to hear. Suppose it would be an unfair advantage to ask but is there anything else I or everyone else could think about adding to the CS's?

@GingerBoi123

Nah, anyone that has a question about their character, ideas they are thinking of but want to check with me before pulling the trigger, or simply asking for advice are welcome. I like to think of myself as a fairly affable guy and i'll give an honest assessment over stuff.

For Rin: I suggest looking at the other cast members, use Fading Memory's excellent links to everyone's sheets here:

Solia - McMolly

Hector Henderson - Zapdos

Marea (Wayfarer) - May96

Michi Watanabe - MonkeyBusiness

Eliza Rebargo - AGenericUser

Terhikki Vepsalainen - Fading Memory

Evander - SunsetWanderer

M.S. Watercrest - Inkarnate

Rin Tsukuri - Gingerboi123

I just wanted to make a convinient list since I got lazy and stopped wanting to flip pages.

@Fading Memory

As well as look at my Marlowe CS (which is still itself a little unfinished). Look at how Rin will measure up, how he will work with, and possible problems, friendships and relationships that could arise from working with any of the other characters. Let that be your guide. Don't be afraid to make a character that will butt heads with someone, or will argue with someone. Drama is what makes stories great!

[GingerBoi123]

@DruSM157Yeah man, I see what you mean. I kind of wanted Rin to be the young, excitable, positive one. Overwhelmingly positive in fact xD probably bordering annoying for some of the more serious/maturer crew.

[DruSM157]

I took some of my own advice and added to my own character profile. Feel free to judge it as you see fit, and give me a taste of my own medicine.

edit: even added a dang theme to be cool like you cool kids

[AGenericUser]

Pushed out a few edits to my form, which are in bold. Most notably is that I changed her from being a Water element user to the Electric element user I was hoping to make her. Her water abilities admittedly weren't doing it much for me.

Unfortunately I didn't add a theme, so I am just one half as cool as you guys. Maybe. Feel free to pretend I did, though! That's what I'm doing, pretending I did it. Maybe I'll get to adding one sometime.

Nice! It’s good to see a variety of different abilities being brought in. My only question: if her sword is wooden, how does it conduct electricity in her sword attack?

@DruSM157

... Oh. Oh.

My bad there! I changed the shield to metal for that ability, but when I was doing that, I think I must've neglected to change the sword, as well. Quite the blunder, I'll admit...

I'll change it in a bit, but one part of me's entertaining the possibility of her not being able to use her electrical abilities until she gets a metallic weapon. That could be a potentially interesting thing... maybe, not sure on that yet.

But yeah, that was an error on my part. My bad, and sorry about that.

@AGenericUser

I think it would make an interesting early dynamic!

[mickilennial]

Cut some time to write after lunch. Will keep you in the know, I guess.

[GingerBoi123]

Oh man, judgement day tomorrow
