Yeah, that's a big enough upgrade that it'll take up both of what you were getting. The other veterans that are left will get two abilities from this piece, while newcomers all get three abilities. EDIT: Last thing on the bosses topic. If you're running a world and someone comes and yanks the rug out from under you with a one-shot kill to a boss, you are free to do a workaround in a similar manner to what I did here. I am not exaggerating when I say outright annihilating bosses will not be tolerated.

Another "so random" guy. Why they appeal to people I will never understand. Anyways, can we try _not_ to do "workarounds" like that? Maybe just say, "oh hey, there's actually a bunch of Volvagias, like a whole nest of them, that's why they didn't seem to be taking any permanent damage"? Not, you know, "The dragon sneezes out its own brain in violation of all laws of anatomy and goes back to ignoring anything you throw at it"? I mean I know it's a majestic dragon, oneshotting bosses is never cool (Jerkchicken you shit) and all but c'mon we just had a whole conversation about uncreative noselling.

You know, I'll do that, actually. That sounds more fun than a single Volvagia. It'll also give me material to respond to Deadpool, so give me a moment to edit. Maybe I should have waited until I ate something. I dunno, this whole deal of oneshotting a boss just struck a seriously raw nerve with me due to a previous character we had to deal with (the guy that almost broke the entire roleplay as I mentioned before). Also, I had Jerkchicken forced out after apparently imagining one-shotting Volvagia and having brains splatter all over the place, but what you suggested sounds a bit better which is why I'm still editing.

Oh I'm sorry I thought you guys were gone long enough to not care about the game as is common here. And as such the game is dead unless someone else takes over which would mean -A: If taken over we'd move on to doing something in a different world rather than faffing about with two fights; one being the easiest boss in terms of challenge and the other being the last boss which regardless of finality given everyone's ludicrous strength would be a challenge to not splatter into a red greasy streak save for some arbitrary bullshit. -B: Game is dead so it don't matter and it ends with a goofy death of said boss

I hope you realize that, by adding this little "if you have immortal in your powerlist, you can be revived", you've basically made it so that _every_ person will just spend one of their upgrade points on immortality. I think we should restrict immortality to those who are only willing to sacrifice all their points, or had it initially.

True immortality is, as I said, reserved to Kalama and the lord of the Void. Cirno is fine because she's following a piece of lore and is obviously not a combat character, and Deadpool's given limits that don't exist in canon. And as I noted with Deadpool, all upgrades go towards that immortality curse even with those limitations placed on him, and even then he's not immune to death, he just doesn't stay dead when he does die.

It's a policy we've had since the beginning of the RP and it hasn't changed just because we've rebooted. And my inactivity was mainly due to work and preparing for school, things that most people fully understand. Had I found time to get on, that announcement would have happened sooner. If this is gonna be your attitude I'm not sure I want you here, but we'll see what the others say. You really haven't painted a good picture of yourself so far. EDIT: Jon, I'm really not wanting any more madness characters. If the others are fine with it, okay, but my vote is for no here.

Hell to the no on the madness character. As far as Jerkchicken's presence, I'm gonna have to agree with Kalama. The attitude is very anti-fun, which is what the Guild is for.

Please god no more lolsorandoms they're always so cringeworthy and have these awful attempts at "humor" that do nothing but fill me with hatred and contempt for whoever plays them.

I'm afraid Halindra's denied, then. More than half of us don't want any more madness, so... yeah. Plus, you have Deadpool, isn't that enough insanity without an incarnate of madness being put in the mixture?

>hmmm... okay guess i'll bring back good ol' maxwell What Maxwell? Scribblenauts Maxwell? Don't Starve Maxwell? Maxwell Lord? Also, the following little rant isn't directed at you specifically, so don't take it as such. It's more of a general thing I've been holding back on, not just in this RP but in general and this is good an opportunity to throw it out there as any. So here we go, no offense meant to anyone in particular but you're free to feel offended if you like. ------ More characters again? Can people just not play only one anymore? Do people really need more characters to make longer posts instead of just setting a scene or getting the character's mentality across? I fucking suck and I just wrote 3 paragraphs, neat, easily readable, equal length ones, about a guy jumping off a building and crashing into the ground below because I set the scene somewhat, narrated what is happening around my guy and how he perceives it, worked in the character's mentality and personality into it. It's not that hard, I'm not even touching on things like smell, the temperature of being so near a pool of goddamn lava and the like. The worst part is when people insist on having multiple characters and don't even write more because of it. It's just a few lines for each, making all of the characters and their general situations nebulous as fuck, barely acknowledging what is happening around them and how they react to it all. Sometimes they're outright reduced to hive-mind levels of coordination without all the fun of an actual hivemind, and then the extra "character" just becomes an excuse to have more "actions" within the roleplay. At worst, they'll fucking forget to address one of their own character's reactions entirely, wholly justifying my claim that they're completely superfluous. Rather than try to fill out posts by throwing in a bunch of short lines about different people, would it not be best to actually get a handle on narrating what goes around an individual protagonist first? Yes, yes I am a bit salty about this, comes with holding back and not saying it in short, less agitated bursts before.

i would, and will apologize for my absence, and cite college, and other RL things as reason for it..but i'm getting the feeling that i might not be welcome here anymore. if that is so..wish you all good luck. if not..well, i doubt my presence is one anyone here wants or cares to have. so yeah..if ya'll want, looking at the ic to just Kill everything in sight, feel free to just slaughter my cast. i'm too depressed to do rp at all at this time. and too tired to care what people online think of me. so i suppose, in short, don't wait for me. i'm taking hiatus from this entire community.

what happened to >For me, this was my first, my greatest experience, and my greatest inspiration in the rp communities. We have created such wonderful things here. But if we let that wonder end, than we fail as creators, as writers. For this is our great work, our magnum opus, and we, are the authors. We, the avatars. We, the characters Bit edited but you know what I mean. I still think that spiel is thinking too highly and being overly attached to something that just doesn't warrant it to such a level, but stick to your cards at least, you know? Is this about my character killing your one guy and then me bitching about playing multiple characters? 'cause anyone's free to play whatever they please, I'm just also free to express my general dislike over how it's done and point out that it could be best to get the hang of focusing on a single perspective first.
