[OOC] Formaroth: Battle for the Throne

@MacabreFox
I started, but on ipad it takes longer than on my pc, im sorry

[MacabreFox]

@twannyman Progress is progress. Keep it up!

Also, @TheDuncanMorgan Phoenix and I have begun a collab.

[TheDuncanMorgan]

@MacabreFox Very good. Collab's between RPiers are always welcome.

Also I will be adding some more detail on the Elven Imperium soon. Despite it not having a major impact on the RP I think it would be good idea to give people a better idea of what it is like. Also I plan to flesh out the characters in my character sheet in more detail.

@TheDuncanMorgan

Absolutely!

I can't wait to read what you come up with!

In another roleplay that I participate in, one of the things apart of the CS's there that I find essential to character building, which also helps prevent OP character archetypes is the, Weaknesses. I think it would be helpful if those of us with single characters, or even those that rule houses, if they wanted to, to add in a section in the our CS for Weaknesses. I mean, we're all humans. It could include anything from fears/phobias, being hot-headed, prideful, stubborn, magically incompetent (can't wield magic), weak constitution (easily sick), cold-hearted, even sociopathic! Lol, these are all just ideas, but I think it would help make our characters feel more human. What do you think?

@MacabreFox

You're implying being a robot is a weakness.

@PhoenixWhite

Not if you're an actual robot it's not (; but it's a human emotion just the same. Perhaps it's apart of their personality, if you include that as apart of their personality, there's still gonna be a weakness. Maybe they're afraid of the dark, or thunderstorms, spiders, snakes, one-eyed cats, they have a problem speaking to the opposite sex, or are even shy of public speaking. The littlest thing could be their weakness to say it short.

[TheDuncanMorgan]

@MacabreFox I don't see why not. Afterall I really do hate Mary Sue/Marty-Stu's when it comes to stories (I.e a character who is so perfect they end up being annoying). It would make the characters more realistic if they had faults.

[PhoenixWhite]

@MacabreFox

Twas more jest than actual commentary, but I understand what you mean xD

@TheDuncanMorgan

It wouldn't be difficult to add weaknesses/flaws to the sheets, and it's pleasant to see these things quantified out of character, though I do like some of the things I've seen qualified //in// character. Claus Makes me happy as a human being.

[TheDuncanMorgan]

@PhoenixWhite That's why I am all for it. I will remember it when it comes to fleshing out my characters.

Of course! Sometimes I get carried away x)

@TheDuncanMorgan

Even being an alcoholic, or a tobacco smoker would be a weakness. Anywho, I'll think of three weaknesses for Aurelia. If we can think of more than three for our characters, well, the more the merrier!

[TheDuncanMorgan]

Just wondering when everyone can expect to get their next post up?

@TheDuncanMorgan

Just started mine with Phoenix, so maybe by the weekend or sometime early next week. I don't see it taking that long, although it could. There's a lot we planned to write in this collab between our characters.

Also, I'm working on revising Aurelia's CS, and I'll be adding in Weaknesses as well.

[MacabreFox]

@TheDuncanMorgan Hey, I was just wondering if you ever wrote up a Most Talented Mage for us magic users in Formaroth? If not, that's quite alright. I was looking over the Reference Sheet is all. Also, did you get my PM about what I wrote for Akki? I'm working on the legend portion of it now, but I just wanted to double check that you liked what I had written for it.

[TheDuncanMorgan]

@MacabreFox The Talented mages will be up soon (I need to create some more characters first before I finish it).

I have sent you a PM regarding Akki now.

[twannyman]

@TheDuncanMorgan
Im still working on my cs when that is done, ill post asap

[twannyman]

@TheDuncanMorgan
When Will the most powerfull mage list be done? Since i could be in the list and i'm courious about it

[TheDuncanMorgan]

Tier 1 - Surpasses what is generally humanely possible to obtain.
High Magister Ascelina - Head of the Mages Circle

Gabanre Charis - Mercenary (Previously star student of the Mages Circle)

High Magister Alice Budwin - Head researcher of Cawanor

Drevala Blackwell - Daughter of Giles blackwell

Tier 5 - People who have proved their talent and are far more talented than most. However they tend to struggle against higher ranks.

Cinereo Lupus - Story teller

Magister Sagard - Head Battle mage of Nyhem

[twannyman]

@TheDuncanMorgan
Yeah, i am th highest pc right?

[TheDuncanMorgan]

@twannyman I'm afraid that title goes to Fox given that Aurelia has more experience using magic considering she joined that mages circle at a younger age. Though you are only one tier lower and are still one of the most talented mages in Formaroth.
