@Teknonick

If Ellri did disappeaer I'd have a Karak appear earlier than planned ^^

[Teknonick]

Uhh.... what Sep? You do realize I'm new here, and have no idea what you just said. lol

Um. Karak. Karak. Does that sound familiar? IDK.... Hmmmm...... By the way, I STILL haven't been able to talk to anyone yet. I mean, outside of OOC. I'm still trying to write up my character, but I also want to collaborate with someone. Anyway, back to editing my character. (P.S. I have no idea why my app is taking so long. It NEVER takes so long)

@Teknonick

I'd help, but because of the way he works it's really impossible to have a history with him...

[Teknonick]

Hmm. Well, Rose wouldn't do well with actually being related to anyone, as anyone she's related to would probably genderist... which, wouldn't work very well most likely. Well, I think I might want to put the app through inspection now so I can start RPing! Can I have a few people look at my app now and tell me what might need to be fixed, or what could be added (Skills! I was stumped there. She's flipping skill-less!)? If there are no objects and it can be accepted... I'll barf my app up wherever it should be, and get straight to posting! P.S. Has anyone figured out what her relic is yet? ;). No? Not enough hints? Oh, boo you. :P

@Teknonick

Skills are just anything she's good at.

[Teknonick]

@Freeshooter92

That's my problem. I don't think she's good at anything! lol Oh, I probably need to send a PM to a GM with my plans on stuff, don't I?

[Ellri]

Here's a quick review of the CS, [@Technonick]. Name: Looks ok. Which lingual root have you picked for the name? Try to stick to a single root for all of Kalnach. Age: acceptable. Gender: acceptable. Faction: Will be interesting to see interpretation. acceptable. Relic Description: Sorry, but no. Relics bond to a single user, and don’t jump about. they don’t half-select someone. They are also locked to a single size. They can’t change shape/size. The only exception to this rule is for shapeshifters, where the relic might become fairly imperceptible when the evoker is in its non-human form. For GMing reasons, we need to have some idea of its powers, but it does not have to be known IC. The other players here won’t abuse OoC knowledge IC. Especially if you make it clear that its not readily apparent to others IC. Also, relics aren’t actually sentient. They have a sort of will of their own, but they don’t have a sentient mind. They can affect things and people around them subtly (and sometimes, not so subtly), but they can’t speak. Once a relic has “decided” something, it is cast in stone. Nothing will change that decision, especially not human will or whims. We’d suggest giving it some abilities that make sure that she has to rebel a bit against the restrictions of Kalnachi society. Appearance: Appearance is ok, but not the misc items. Clockworks is not something that has been developed yet, let alone evolved to the point where pocket watches can be crafted. Also, dragons don’t exist in this world. As such, dragon symbology is kinda unfitting. Nice to see how the clothes fit fairly well with how clothes were more or less in the middle ages. Flaws: Your flaws can be challenging to play out right, but not impossible if you’re up to it. Skills: Just because Kalnachi women are fairly subjugated, it does not mean they are without skills. If anything, it takes more skill to be anything in such a society as a woman. Also, while there are several gods believed in by the various nations, none of them can currently prove their god(s) are real. Biography: Kalnach and Othea are separate nations. The Kalnachi religion isn’t seen much outside Kalnach, and its priesthood is all homegrown. Othea, which its not as imbalanced as Kalnach is gender-wise, doesn’t have equal rights. Its simply that the Kalnachi women barely have any rights at all. Kalnachi women are just a few, but significant, steps above slaves. They can’t own property, don’t have much of any say in society and their position in society hinges on that of their male relatives or husband. Also, in medieval societies, trades tend often to be inherited. You have not really described what her husband’s trade was, nor anything on why it failed. Nor why her family’s trading failed. We would suggest finding a reason for them to be in Othea, as that is where current events are. Personality: This is acceptable. Relations: The goal of the relations section is primarily to cover how your character relates to other character, not to characters created for your bio. Final Point - Secrets: The purpose behind secrets is things you want the GM(s) to know about your character, that you may or may not want other players to know about. If you want it secret from other players, this can be covered in a PM.

[Teknonick]

I'm outside the house now, but thank you for your criticism! Upon my return I'll start making edits, and sharing within a PM what my plans are. I do have planned for her to join the others, but that will be rped through the first 2-4 posts until she reaches the town. I do plan on RPing in the past (With notes as to how far back) a few months to begin with, staring in late winter. Aftee certain posts there'll be time skips to catch her up to everyone else at around the time of arrival.

[Kangutso]

Sorry that I disappeared for so long guys, been preoccupied with some stuff. I was wondering what has been going on and if I can still join in on this.

[Ellri]

Of course you can,@Kangutso. Fair enough,@Teknonick.

[Fallenreaper]

@Kangutso

I believe it's always accepting new Players, Kangutso.

[Ellri]

indeed. If we should ever close up the RP (which is highly unlikely), we will make sure its clearly marked as closed. Also... If anyone feels up to it, we do have a coGM slot or two open. All we'd ask is that you help out and are willing to be a bit non-budging in decisions. We got another RP we'd also like to relaunch, but simply can't do it without neglecting this one to such degree that it will not work as it should, and that will simply not do.
