Quiet Thinker, I didn't catch your post earlier but welcome to the RP! It'll be nice to have you. What kind of character are you aiming for? We can group-think an appearance that fits, after all pictures are not required. And I partially updated the threat, but still waiting on some of the players who haven't posted. No rush, just a reminder.

Thanks man!

Well, I've got everything else typed up, but if I can just do a description then that'd be cool. The main features of him are a steel helmet that covers his whole head that he wears, along with a pair of steel gloves that are moderately sizable. I just don't know what else he would wear, other than just a basic hooded jacket, trousers and boots..

If thats all I need for a description though, then I may as well just post it now.

[Lookie]

Threats have been made? This is worrying. That said, wee, update~

Friggin' puppy is destroying everything 'cause I'm unable to take him for more than a twenty minute walk today. Worst part? He's not too big on toys right now. All he wants to do is rip my favorite blanket apart.

[MrDidact]

Quit Thinker, He can get better clothes later :P Go ahead and post away.

I meant to type thread haha but that still fits. Anyway, I'm off for the day, I'll update again as soon as I'm able and there's enough posts.

MrDidact, you didn't answer my question

America is not scary if you're tough. We have a lot of mystery things like big foot, Champ, the Jersey Devil and werewolves in the state of Wisconsin. We are loud but we are very independent and fervently believe in liberty

[MrDidact]

Yog, Yeah I just realized that.

Well I would say we already have a cowboy type so another one seems superfluous. There are literally dozens of heroic (or semi-heroic) archetypes to draw inspiration from.

America is not a place that can be described as having one mindset, but then again this is any country. The only thing that is consistent is that Americans have a wide array of beliefs and that we like a ridiculous range of food.

I am not tough. I am made of pudding. I would be squished in a second.

Can't wait to read your CS, QuietThinker!

So are you saying that it would be a bad idea? It's not unheard of to have characters with a similar archetype. Also Jonah Hex is not a cowboy, he's a bounty hunter

The food cost and selection here as well as RT 44 drink sizes & free refills is one thing I do like a lot here. I'm a skinny bastard too so I don't get judged when I order whole sections of the menu for myself xD I do miss Milo and other things though. Plus almost every soft drink here has enough caffeine content that it actually rivals Australian energy drinks, which isn't necessarily a good thing all the time.

Working of a post now, but I'm a little wiped out at the moment. Just spent 2 hours trying to round up bulls and cows into a trailer to take to sale. The cows were the biggest pain in the ass, go figure. Plus I got a gauged earring caught and pulled out, so that sucks too. Goodbye gauged ears. Oh well, I'll live.

EDIT: Post's up. For stuff like making items intangible and whether he's successful in certain actions I've been rolling die to see if they work or not. It's my way of trying to ensure I don't end up godmodding or something, plus I figured if Bishop is as difficult as he's been made out to be it wouldn't make sense to write this as being cake walk for Rift Hound. After all, it's not like he actually has any experience using his abilities in combat. Everything so far has been reactionary or trying to make the best out of a situation where he's clearly out of his depth.

while America has produced some extremely twisted psychopaths like Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dalmer, and the zodiac killer, on the whole I think the average American is a good person and our country is one of the most diverse in the world. America has pretty much every culture in the world, in fact I would say Americans might in fact be one of the most cultured people in the world.

Unusable character ideas: A super hero who can literally punch you into next week. Like you're fighting against them and then they punch and suddenly you're in the supermarket with a trolley of groceries. What has happened? What did you need to buy? what did you not need to buy? Confusion and questions ensue D:

I want that as a graphic novel, and it would be freaking hilarious.

The only problem with America is their insistence on capitalism. Socialism is far better, and if we adhered to that, we'd have a cure for cancer like 4 years ago. The big drug companies found a cure already but wont sell it due to treatments just being so good, hence all those cure for cancer drives where good natured indie companies have to put their work into researching a cure.

Btu thats just one of the many problems and flaws with a semi capitalist society.

Assuming Socialism is what Teddy was, Teddy is one of my fav presidents.

Also I do live in America, before you ask :P.

That sounds like a pretty big conspiracy theory to me. :P
Also capitalism is inherently faster at producing new things than socialism. I.e. cures.

Right, that is Mr Joe Black's character sheet (hopefully) finished.

And on a side not I'm waiting for the Biddz to post before I do, but if he doesn't get one up in the next 12 hours or so I'll go ahead without him.

I don't think I'll be able to write anything today. Stupid TWD making me cry my eyes out like a little baby, giving me a headache and tiring me out.

I'll still try. Just ya know, this might be a day where I need to skip on writing.

[An Outsider]

What is TWD?
