[OOC] Civilization Roleplay: Rise of Races (The Tribes of Nova Mondial Want You!)

[MangoJuice]

Looks good to me, go ahead and start when you're ready. I'll get the map updated when I get on my PC.

And welcome!

[MangoJuice]

Does this look good to you both?



Also,
@Cuddle Pot

The Character tab is a place for people to put their sign-up sheets (once they are approved, and not before)

Needless to say I already approve, just a heads up to anyone in the future.

[Cuddle Pot]

Looks fine to me. Thanks for letting me in. And sorry about the character tab, I read that bit once I posted.

[Nerevarine]

Looks fine to me :3 thanks

[Meiyuuhi]

Glad to see some new people. All your sign-up sheets look quite good. I will update the OP with the new map and races.

Also, we're not planning any time jumps, it's more of a smooth progression of advancement over time. For now the pace of time should be fairly fast, though, since if we did it a couple months at a time we'd be to medieval on page 1000 or so.

[MangoJuice]

I'll be away from my PC for a few days, but I'll still try to post IC, just don't expect them to be super long since I'll only have my phone.

[Meiyuuhi]

I would really prefer posts that are longer than the two that you guys just posted, at least initially. Fourteen sentences (or roughly two paragraphs) is what I would recommend at a minimum. You don't have to change the ones you have, but just for future reference. Longer posts are always preferable to more frequent ones.

In other news, I plan to post today.

[MangoJuice]

Am I missing something? Their posts look long enough to me. Also, I don't recall there ever being a 14 sentence minimum when we were on the Sporum.

@MangoJuice

It's not an absolute. But there is a tendency of our posts to degrade into:

Statistics and population

-couple lines of text-

Stone tools: 1/8
Cat domestication: 1/6

Civ RPer

I'd just like to ensure a reasonable standard of depth is all. We can't be Precipice of War, with twenty-paragraph long posts.

After all, the Casual label says "a few paragraphs, medium depth".

[MangoJuice]

I would rather it be active with smallish posts than dead with huge posts, but hey, you're the boss.

[Cuddle Pot]

Is it okay if I have two of my group go in a different direction then the rest? I would have separate paragraphs in a post of what they are doing until they meet again. Main reason for this is so i can encounter more species faster.

@Cuddle Pot

That's pretty much what I'm doing. My entire species split up in different directions.

[Joegreenbeen]

Is there still room here? (If I can join, I will only be able to post weekly, at most.)

@Joegreenbeen

Plenty.

[Cuddle Pot]

In case it was unclear I've found @Mihndar and i will post what happened of the two breakaways either tonight or tomorrow.

[Meiyuuhi]

First contact, here we go~

[Joegreenbeen]

Here's a rough cs. I found a little time to post tonight,but I usually will only be able to post on weekends.

And about that weekends thing, I will be away this weekend so I may not be able to reply to anything for a bit.(Please don't take this as I am not invested, I have been waiting to participate in one of these types of "games" for as long as I have been roleplaying.)

Name of Race: Herenthor

Description: The Herenthor are a tunnel dwelling people who have tan, leathery skin and a short demeanor. All have roundish, bald heads and clawed hands for digging. Herenthor walk funny compared to humans, as their legs bend the opposite way, which is surprisingly useful for their digging style, but not for speed . Due to their digging habits, the average Herenthor has toned muscles and their skin is tough so they don’t get by underground debris. Besides their baldness, the gender’s have the same gender identifying characteristics as humans.

Racial Characteristics:
-The Herenthor are short, tan, and bald. They also eat both plants and animals.

-The Herenthor have clawed hands, which tend to be used for digging, though they are long enough to be like knifes. The claws can be broken if they are hit in a way that they aren’t designed to withstand, it is uncertain if they will grow back. A typical adults claws range from six to eight inches.

-The Herenthor tend to easily build muscle mass, and can lift things easily. Their legs also bend “backwards”. Their skin is can also withstand most cuts, withstanding thorns and rocks, but probably not

-The Herenthor are typically slow and have an aversion to light, only active above ground at night.

-Their top digging speed is an average walking pace.

Race Bio: The Herenthor tend to be introverts, usually only having one close confidant. Both genders hold equal roles in the tribe. Each family usually only bares one child, so the Herenthor have a relatively small population. The eldest of the tribe is the one in charge, as they are considered the most wise. The Chief main role in the tribe is to act as jude, but occasionally he will call the tribe together to help a family in need, though these instances are few and far between.

The Herenthor have little untapped potential, as they have a strong thinking capacity. They would make great engineers, but they are so reclusive they tend not to share many ideas and work together. This leaves the tribes advancements stunted, with an occasional hike as a new idea is suddenly introduced.

The main Herenthor tribe lives in the desert, where they can easily build shelter, small huts with tunnels connecting them underground. To find food and water, they make daily exhibitions to the nearby forest. They are beginning to practice farming, but they have not brought it to the point where it is reliable.
Location on Map: On the desert in the middle of the Western side, including a little of the light greenery.

[Meiyuuhi]

Looks pretty good to me. The only thing I would ask is for you to specify where in the desert you mean, up north of the river near the tundra or south below the Rokthan and Arsuron? I presume that you mean in the south since you reference a nearby forest.

@Mihndar

Yeah, in the South.

[Meiyuuhi]

<Snipped quote by Mihndar>

Yeah, in the South.

@Joegreenbeen

Go ahead and feel free to post, then.

@Cuddle Pot
I will be responding to you today or tomorrow.
