[OOC] Tales Of Shizuyama (Far-Eastern Monster Girl RP)

@FrogRFlowR

Yeah, what that guy with the cool orange co-GM ribbon said!

@PaulHaynek

That is a cool orange ribbon.

Like previously said, the first post will come soon! Players still working on their characters can make their entrances later.

Let me also remind all the players that you can make a second character if you want. :)

Okay, as I mentioned to the co-gm, my problem with Wyndressa is a couple of things:

• Her powers feel a bit underdeveloped. I'm especially having a difficult time differentiating her vampiric blood magic and her demonic magic. This is odd, considering that I have references that do. But, I think the problem is that I'm basing this completely off the Bloodhunter from D&D, which kinda merges these things together.
• Her backstory feels unvague and unfocused. I realize this is something of a flaw in my character development: I often try to avoid the typical "family's dead, seeking revenge" tragedy that most people write. But, then I have a difficult time making a character's motivation seem interesting.
• Oh, and I forgot her weapons and equipment.

@WanderingDragon

Make any changes you think you need to be comfortable with your character. The last thing you want is playing a character you don't wanna play.

As some advice, sometimes it's better to simply rehaul and rework the stuff rather than bang heads trying to make it work. That's just my two cents, of course. At the end of the day, it's your character.

@PaulHaynek

Well, a few minutes after making that post, I had an idea. Wyn's powers should be opposite, yet complimentary: Her vampiric half manipulating the physical, while her demonic half manipulates the magical. I might also give her a companion. Considering that romance isn't the exact point. If Wyn had a companion that were already a romantic partner, I could explore the romantic aspects of her character, without shoehorning it into the plot. If there's room for Wyn and [companion] to include another lady in their love nest, the option could be open.

@Restalaan I can already imagine the shenaniganry we'll wreak, Scar will enterprise Sam's ability to make snowballs! And the Snow cone market WILL CRASH MUHAHAHAHA!

[WanderingDragon]

Okay, so Wyndressa's profile has been fixed up. I do feel like I ought to touch up her equipment a bit more. But, that may no be necessary.

[GoodestGrief]

I'm definitely still interested, will probably be able to update my CS within a day or so! I apologize, I've been on a bit of a drunken bender the past couple days but I got work this weekend and that tends to focus me a bit lmao.

[Dark Cloud]

@PaulHaynek So do we have an exact ETA on when the IC will be up?

[PaulHaynek]

@Dark Cloud

We'll start once I'm done reviewing the new CSs.

So maybe several hours from now.

[PaulHaynek]

So we've began!

To the players still working on their CSs, don't fret. There's still time before the taskforce leaves for Shizuyama.

[FrogRFlowR]

I have been searching for images that jogs my imagination for a character. Might have found something. Now will go through CS's to get a general idea of what we got and what we're searching for and come up with something. x_x

[WanderingDragon]

Okay, I think Wyn is ready to roll.

[Dark Cloud]

Short but sweet.

EDIT: Sam may be better at controlling his libido but he is definitely a perv. Even if a bit oblivious of the fact.

@Dark Cloud
Feel free to peek at Lunatea's behind as much as he wants :D

@Hammerman

I have a feeling she will probably take a scholarly interest in Sam, once she has a moment of course. I can see her probably following him around writing notes like: day 2: the subject in question IS in fact male! Although I have yet to see if this monster 'boy' has the normal parts of the male specimen I will see soon! IN THE NAME OF SCIENCE

jk lol

EDIT: Although Sam's a wee bit, hm what's the word...He is not all that observant so he might seem dumb to her.

[PaulHaynek]

@WanderingDragon

Indeed she is. You can go ahead and make your intro post now.

[FrogRFlowR]

From what I gather, not all Monster Girls are changed from Humans, right? I saw some that are and some that aren't, and the Wiki is massive and I had a hard time separating the smut from the lore. Lol.

[PaulHaynek]

@FrogRFlowR

That is correct. Some monster girls come from objects like the Karakasa-Obake, some are concentrations of mana gaining sentience like Dark Matters while some come from Elementals like Sylphs and Ignises.

[FrogRFlowR]

Oh yeaaaah but they cannot be born right? Cause its only women?

I read some people write about clans and families, I am/was under the impression it was monster girls families. So if I want to play something more like a devil, succubus or any other half animals monster girls, they either were humans before or formed from mana?
