[OOC] Dungeon Keepers

[DR_TRAPEZOID]

I'm really sorry. I've been meaning to post as Ifrit, but I haven't gotten around to it. I'll try to ASAP, but I'm a bit busy ATM

[Kangutso]

Mistakes were made, but the world kept twisting, further and further to its doom.

EDIT: Now I am tempted to go ahead and make my own Keeper, but my pessimistic/nervous side tells me I don't have the the RP skills to do that as well as what I'm already doing with Lugu. So I'll stick with that.

Oh, no rush. I'm currently juggling around, what, five characters if you count Fangir. I doubt I'll ever be in a situation where I can't post as any of those. And Kangutso, I think you'd be fine handling a meager two. :P

[Kangutso]

Well, if I do work up the guts to make a Keeper, I'll go ahead and give you an idea of the kind of things it'll be involved with. Elemental Dragons. Yes, I like dragons.

[IVIasterJay]

But do they weigh more than a duck?

[Kangutso]

Uhm... yes and no?

EDIT: I'm not gonna start immediately with dragons, though.

[Lugubrious]

As long as the dragons are not at all buglike...

On another note, I hate to continue nagging at you for the compendium, Bbeast, but perhaps the fire/water priests and the tribesmen Shaige is dealing with might be added to the NPC section.

[IVIasterJay]

So how many constructs would it be before a keeper could create something truly massive?

[Kangutso]

I'd imagine it to be a minimum of 3-5 before you can make something that big. And I imagine there would have to be a large requirement or such to keep it in check.

[BBeast]

For a giant construct, 3-5+ seems like a reasonable ball-park figure. It depends on how massive and powerful the Construct is as well as how powerful you as a Keeper is (you can't make something more powerful or as powerful as yourself, that would be ridiculous). There is also the logistical consideration of how to care for and house your giant. Most things have to eat, and with giants this is more-so. At the very least you will need a much bigger entrance.

[IVIasterJay]

Okay, just curious. No plans for summoning the leviathan just yet.

[Kangutso]

Question of curiosity: What mythical creatures might already exist in this world?

[Dawnon Aeris]

kangutso you would do well in the keeper aspect im sure, i mean i am definetely the weakest link here im sure youd outdo me easy enough. shouldnt let fear hold you back

[Cyclone]

Unicorns might exist. Maybe nymphs, fairies, and such. Huge things like wyverns, dragons, and gargoyles could exist as well but would be rare sights.

[Lugubrious]

Don't discredit yourself too much, Dawnon. You've already got a clear theme and direction. A little more effort overall and you could be a force to be reckoned with.

[Kangutso]

+1 to the previous post.

[Kangutso]

Sorry for the double. How active is this on average?

[Lugubrious]

Oh, we get maybe two posts a day. The general quality and length of the posts makes up for this somewhat.

[Kangutso]

Hmm, makes sense. Just kind of impatient and contemplating whether or not to make a Keeper. The most difficult part, or one of them, would be the location, there aren't any volcanoes near a major city that doesn't already have a Keeper nearby.

EDIT: Near the city, I mean.

[Lugubrious]

Having a Keeper nearby shouldn't be that difficult of an obstacle to work around. Not everyone is going to go out guns blazing the instant they hear of a new Keeper within a hundred miles. I'll wager even a fifty mile radius would be too much of an effort for most. And of course the new Keeper could be trying to remain unnoticed and invest in some sort of stealth.
