[OOC] Uno Mundus -Uncovering the World Secret-

[WiliamZero]

I and Jelly curently discussing about the current UM and its flow. And we note the UM is kinda disappointed. Compared to before the total erase on December last year. So, we decided to remake the entire RP while reparing some concept that might not working her.

The Main Question is here now, Do you guys agree with this desicison or not
If not, we will continue this RP like nothing ever happened

But, if you guys agree ... the development of new RP (remake) is now on the way. Currently discussing it with Jelly

[Amalvi]

I think it's not a bad idea

the problem I found with this rp was the purpose of it. Every time I was thinking in my head "What will my character do next?" I had the problem that I have no idea what the objective was and therefor to whom interact with to reach said objective.

[WiliamZero]

Alright ... I still in middle of creating the remade ... also decided to throw in/away some unused concept

[Amalvi]

It's all right

This way we might be able to get more people into it,700 OOC posts seem intimidating to newcomers

[Masaki Haruna]

Also, we need supports, two people like me and Wilz arent enough to lay concepts and stories out.
@Amalvi, I want to make you as part of the story crew, aka a sic as a story builder like what wilz and I do, THE LIKES OF Grey, I want him too!

Of course! I'll be much glad to help and contribute to developing this world.

[Masaki Haruna]

@Wilz, we'll bring Amalvi in the pad.
The flaw of this rp is that we didn't plan much at all lol.

Factors on having a good RP:
Cooperation, we have that!
Pre-planned stories/characters' development, we lack this quite a bit.

Proper story arc, yep pre-planning is major here, can't afford to drag on an arc. Normally in real life time, we can finish an arc in a week, sometimes a month. A story arc (a contraction of "over-arching storyline") is a sequence of series installments. Arcs are not necessarily consecutive episodes. The story may reach a point where, although the arc is not completely resolved, it ceases to be of immediate concern to the characters, thus allowing the writers to intersperse (or insert) non-arc episodes.

More info: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StoryArc

Established relationships so that most of us don't go blank.
Established roles, a special role assigned by GM or SiC.
Power level maintenance. Original UNO Mundus RP's power levels capped at City Level, this is prior to airing it at here.

Power Scaling in depth:
Factors to consider are:
DC, destruction capabilities/capacity of a character's power.
AoE, area of effect, how ones power effectiveness affects an area, this conjuncts with DC.
Speed, normally everyone is peak human, progression makes us above it, sonic speed, superhuman etc.
Reaction time, the factor that is congruent with our speed, either supersonic reaction/hyper sonic reaction.
Endurance, how much can a character tank?.
Stamina, how far can a character go?

These factors are judged by GM, it is to ensure that power levels are maintained and non of us will go op as heck.

Also.... We need to practice panel timing, when to appear and when not to appear because this gives plus points to make a flashback and foreshadowings. In addition, if one is a villain, not all the time he or she appears, same goes to special role types. This applies to everyone.

Lastly, we need love! LOVE MAKES US STRONG!
The new stuff I'm adding is, four character limit, one or two characters are the expected.

Alrighty.

[Masaki Haruna]

Grey-sama! Juvia promotes you to SiC!

[Grey]

....Huh. That's the second time I've gotten promoted to SIC this week.

Also I'm gonna revise some worldbuilding stuffs I put up, if that's cool.

EDIT: Also Will, you should make different Ability Sheets for ESP/Ruspere/Magic/Other. Makes it more concise.

What about l-lewd?

Amalvi and Grey....
Discussions of the three continents, how do we build up the countries,towns,cities?

[Grey]

I'll see about checking it out after I get done with classes.

[Amalvi]

Creating a world is not an easy task, I'm talking in a physical level of said world only. Many people go for a simplified version of a land or single continent that is laid in an island or peninsula way. But here we are making a whole world, even star wars is more simple because it resorts to make themed planets and thus doesn't need to make geographical explanations. But Uno Mundus is going to be huge, and thus we need to reduce he work we need to put in detailing by reducing to what is planned to be covered in he rp

Where is the action going to take place? I suppose the academia city and the island it is in for the most part. We should concentrate our efforts in creating a convenient set up of it instead of creating new content that is unlikely to get used unless necessary

Sorry for the grammar, I'm on my phone

[Grey]

I think we're working on the existing, themed bits, not new continents. Though if we're stuck in AC, I don't see why making cities is useful outside of character backgrounds.

EDIT: I'm online.

[WiliamZero]

Well, Since the arc basically cover mostly at Island Nation ... We will focus on that one. When the story expending, We will add it later

[Amalvi]

This is some thinking I've made

Okay, so island nation (now known as Caelifer) is going to be the center of the roleplay, for now, I recommend changing the name of Sevii island for something that isn't taken out of pokemon, but oh well

What is the size of the city? I'm going ahead and suppose that weather of UM is bullshit, because a continent that close to the ecuador would be a permanent summer, and we rather have a moderate weather to work with of humid subtropical or mediterranean. When I imagined Academia city the closest in a real world counterpart that comes to my mind is Santa Cruz, California but I'm going ahead and suppose that the Academia itself inside the city is as big as as another city, with half million students ranging from elementary all the way to university studies. It might seem massive, but we have said that Academia city is the number one when it comes to studies. Entrance is not completely restricted, a potential student gains bonuses for entrance based mostly in a passing exam and the entrance grade required is lowered depending on factors such as the residency, allowance, integration, if it has studied previously on the academy, etc.

So about the academia, you mentioned the library, of course, but what are the most important buildings? I suppose a main hall, a building for elementary students, two or three buildings for high school students, and a bunch of faculties for things such as law, engineering, liberal arts, mathematics, magic, medicine,sciences, etc. All of them with a main building surrounded by enormous pavilions that specify the study (criminal law, weapon development, history, physics, pharmacy, etc.). Not to mention the possible student and staff residences and shops and restaurants.

[Masaki Haruna]

I got the interest check.

Please no bully

Also, I noted that you have left out information about several races and the continents in the interest check while you introduced werewolves and vampires which were kinda absent in the previous one. But well, is only the interest check

Also, what is a SiC?

[Masaki Haruna]

I'm back and I agree, we need to change.
I'm not bullying you.

Plus, you sound kawaii when you said that.
That being said, I never thought of the California part until now, so I'm going with that, I wonder what will Grey and Wilz think and say but you really are strait to the point. :D
