[OOC] Living in Aincrad: a SAO RP

[MarshiestMallow]

I agree, either that or just have a longer time to leveling again. Which ever is easiest

[MarshiestMallow]

I'm waiting for someone else to post before I post, but I have an assignment due monday so I might not be on much the next two days

[DELETED7282737]

I dont know anymore
Fever isnt really helping me with making posts sorry guys

[MarshiestMallow]

Aw, I hope you aren't badly ill!

[Little_ninja]

Arg
Sorry double post
It wasn't showing up after the post, so I thought it didn't go through
Appeared like 5 minutes later that I had posted

Edit: Both are the same content wise, but are a little different
Which one do you guys think is a better post?
I will remove the other one depending on what you choose

Is there room for a new character? What I've seen of this so far during my lunch break has me in love already. I'll be sure to read through the rest of the OOC and other "essential" reading and await permission before publishing a character though. I understand if the timing is awkward or you are simply full. I see a lot of character sheets.

[Little_ninja]

There is room
People have dropped out, unfortunately
Have you read the guidebook page?

Always open to new people!

We do have a guide book which provides everything essentially guidebook

Good to hear and I look forward to browsing it's leafy internet goodness later. For now however I must return to the dark side... ugh... telesales. I tend to sneak glances at my subs and pms between calls though.

[DELETED7282737]

Being sick is really tiring im sorry guys but my mind just stops with working when i try to make a post while being ill.

You can puppet me around when you need to

[Little_ninja]

It's okay
It's like that when you are sick
Hope you get better soon

Ok. I'm about to delve into thing properly now and I do actually have some questions already. How far along in the story are things? I am assuming by now characters know they are trapped but what level are they on and such?

Also. I have a general outline for character background ideas (and am looking at other characters to ensure I don't accidentally clone someone) but what kinda character would people like to see in the rp? Are there any roles people feel need filling for example? I generally try to fill gaps to avoid stepping into other peoples limelight whilst excelling in my own.

EDIT: anyone may feel free to answer either question. The more facts and opinions i have the better.

[MarshiestMallow]

Yes, characters know that they are trapped in the game, and its been approx. three weeks, with most of our characters reaching Tolbana, just near the labyrinth that is the boss's area

as for a character...you should be okay with any you make

[Hailfire]

Cool cool. As I say I have a character idea. It is primarily the skills and equipment I want to consider. I may re-watch a couple of episodes just to get a feel for things again.

[MarshiestMallow]

I believe we have a spear, a katana user, a one handed sword user, a raiper user....um. I forget.

[Little_ninja]

Yui is a two-handed sword user as well
Ayame is a scythe user (allowing different weapons, within reason)

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

We actually have two katana users, Fujiwara and Paka.

[Little_ninja]

Um... Caits
Rapiers are not really meant for cutting
Rapiers are designed for stabs/thrusts
And also apparently the Anneal Blade has the same length as your described rapier lol

[Hailfire]

As a member of a pirate re-enactment group I can confirm the above statement related to rapiers... although being slapped by the side of one still stings like a *censored word*.

I am afraid my character is likely to join the majority in being agility/speed based and light armour wearing. It fit with the background I had in mind for him. Having looked through all the CS's however I am a little confused as to how many skills I should have at this point as some people have about four and others have loooaaads of them. I actually tallied up the number of people who'd taken each skill and weapon if anyone is interested (note that any changes not yet recorded in the CS will not be recorded in the results)? I can confirm now that there is a definite bias towards light armour and acrobatics based characters although, again, not sure how many skills are reasonable at this point.

Am now most of the way done with my CS. Literally just the skills left and that I am awaiting replies on.
