Don't you get any ideas...

B-But...why not? >)

Wind Wild said
Hahaha you're right Rtron. >} Make sure to keep her safe. So, random question to all: Tell us something about your inspiration - be it a short story of what inspired a certain scene or character, or what inspires you in general. :)

To write/rp, it's pretty much what Lucius said in a way. Somethings I view, and you ask those who know me well, can range from demented childish delight to outright creative. The latter is usually rarer. Depending on the object, the inspiration comes from many different sources. Characters, tend to be themes or exploration of something which we consider unusal. It sometimes can develope character's personalities to a point I can't see them being anything else yet makes it possible to adapt to playing in a variety of rps as long as that key taboo is present. Like Racheli for example, she is one of my favorite characters I play.

While I play her, the main inspiration is the theme Nature vs Nurture. A fact some scentists believe being a killer is a select gene which can be inherited while others argue its how you're raised that determined if you react in a key way. Rach was my character who explored that and the 'What if' it was more a choice to give into nature? She was bitchy, independent loner and one those your character will hate usually, but it's not without a reason. In her mind, being that way kept everyone away and most importantly, kept them safe from the threat they wouldn't see: herself. She had to live with that love of violence, pain and suffering all the time, strongest when she was causing it. Sometimes thoughts, frightening and what we consider disturbing, would pop into her head from time to time. However, despite the reader knowing why she pulled away, the characters themselves wouldn't understand it. What makes a monster when a character has all traits we deem enough to declare one as? Is it the choice to become one or something much deeper?

...And now I'm getting carried away. XD Just one last, little bit:

Scenes are usually taken from movies yet can be taken from the idea of what other player can add to it, how the characters react to the unexpected, do they work well together or end up fighting badly together due to personality clashes (AKA breaking that norm that almost everyone can fight well together in movies no matter what) and the art of telling a story shared by the desire to create it from not one mind, but two. To change the outcome.

Hum. What an amazing question. I could write endless, BORING rhetoric about what inspires me, what does not inspires me, what inspires me on Tuesdays, and all that jazzy handwaving. But!!

BUT!!

Maybe it'd be better... if I sing it to you.

^__________^

Oh, and maybe it'd even better if I hire a pro to sing it for me! :O (because I have a horrible, gravely voice: your eardrummers will thank you)

Video Link

Watch out. There's a possible language barrier. There are words at the bottom so you can follow along. But yes, this repetitive video sums up the reason why I roleplay and write.

Lucius said ddendum: Where is everyone at? I want to make sure that Damon and Noel are within the area so I don't have them just bumming around themselves.

I think that a few are in one city, with the academy.

The rest are scattered.

Lucien- Somewhere outside the city.

Mary/Lazarus- Finch's Loft. Nowhere near the city.

Solus/Mairyell- Currently leaving Proagia.

Szayeis- Deader than the Gatekeepers >_> <_< .

Luciana-Currently dead.

I think that's it for those not in the city.

Fallen said B-But...why not? >)

Your ideas involve pain and death. Lucien has enough of that coming without your meddling. XD

[yoshua171]

Solus/Mairyell: Outside of Loom, exiting the Vault. They are located on Jiggerbark mountain.

Lol @ the Szayeis bit xD

[Rtron]

I was close. :P

[Mikael]

Between the ruins of Loom and Jiggerbark Mtn are the ruins of a town called Thorpe. Just a mile from Loom. At the base of the mountain is Jiggerbark forest.

Hope this helps.

[Rtron]

Mikael said Thorpe.

Where Luciana got eaten by Hodge!

[Mikael]

And just prior to THAT, she also got French kissed by his tentacle-tongue against her will. After which she was promptly vomited into with stomach acid, like cream cheese filling a habonero pepper.

I miss those times.

-smirks-

*tries not to remember*

Hey, Rtron, Fallen, REALLY sorry for the delay but my responses in the collabs are up. ^^;

Cypher, if you tone down and edit Damon ' sconsuming abilities hhe's accepted and will be added to the chara list in the first post.

Remember, Mikael even made a few innuendos...Hazumi very nearly met a worse fate.

Fucking he'll, Rtron, I told you I'm trying NOT to remember! XD

[Rtron]

*Innocently blinks eyes* What? I was only musing aloud to myself. ;)

[Wind Wild]

...
*stares at Rtron ' s signature picture suspicious that it might be a memento of those times*

[Lucius Cypher]

Hey. nothing wrong with a bit of appendage loving. It's a natural part of the circle of life.

Oh, Papa Nurgle? No, he was around long before Hodge came. If anything, being the God of disease and death, He's Worse.

[Themerlinhawk]

As soon as the dust from my first week back to work and school settles I'll post Lazarus' next post but our location will probably change to the Academy soon because that is the change Lazarus has in mind. Clearly living with an eccentric genius in Ireland is not helping Mary's disposition

[Wind Wild]

Lol fair enough. XD

The Academy's location is in the city of (G)Loom which is in a fictional country somewhere in Western Europe. Loom's borders reach an ocean on the east side.

Emmet/Jaun/Zi- At Emmet's appartment in Kenan (Where it looks like Zi is going to rip into the demon's ass... XD Loves how he pisses her off.)
Olivia- Currently in the same city and in deep trouble. (Rtron sent a little... surprise)

Oh come on, you love them admit it! He'lll get over it. :P

Also, Yoshua, warn me next time there's a post with Falair. Mainly cause I got an image of Angel dressed up in a blood Alice in Wonderland dress and smiling while she asked him if he could teach her how to do that. >,< It just freaking popped out of nowhere while I was reading it.

It's alright, I'll answer it tomorrow.

Which likely, Olivia, if Wind answers my inquiry about the school, might be relocating to shortly. >)

Also, Hi Mika. I brought Emmet into this chapter so if you want to pick up with what we had in mind with Emmet just shoot me a pm!

[Wind Wild]

Slightly altered the Academy into post - final few paragraphs after Hazumi starts dancing.

Fallen, sorry I didn't give an answer to your suggestion. Yeah, I think we should extend the Academy to accept other kinds of talents too, just so we can make it a main focal point in this season and use it to connect characters. :)
