[OOC] Legend of Zelda: A New Story

[GodOfWar]

Post #101!!

[Zmerr]

I'm going to be largely unavailable today and possibly tomorrow too, but I plan to get at least one post in before the end of the weekend. Also, I'm trying to figure out exactly how I'm going to respond to Skull Kid.

[GreenGoat]

Still writing. Stumbled on a block yesterday, and hopefully i can jump over that now.

[Apollosarcher]

@GreenGoat It's fine I'm not expecting everyone to post in a day. I prefer to have a slower RP, as I am currently GMing three.

[Lady Seraphina]

Anyone want to run into the glowing fairy dancing in town square?

@Apollosarcher

Wow. Three?

[Apollosarcher]

@Zmerr As for being out that's fine I get that life gets in the way so no worries, we probably won't really far into it and looking at how things are going it seems like people wouldn't mind a couple days absence.

[JDizzle383]

Finally got a miserable, down on his luck, angry at the world Shadow Link post up!

[Lady Seraphina]

"The only way this could get worse is if I run into someone who recognizes me, or can sense shadow magic!"

@JDizzle383

Unfortunately you got someone who can do both, Shadow Link, you are soooooooooo F*cked right now.

[JDizzle383]

So... quick important question:

Is there a posting order or do I just react to Navi here asap?

[Lady Seraphina]

It's likely best that we don't have three hundred Navi/Shadow Link posts going back and forth but if you want to post another one now there shouldn't be a problem.

[Apollosarcher]

Yeah if it's to be a long drawn out conversation then I would love it if you guys moved it to PM and just posted it here under a hider or something. Or collab post it.

[JDizzle383]

alright. and I guess I should also explain why Shadow Link is Neutral as well? I mean, as much as I like the idea of him trying to kill Link to become human, that isn't how I want to portray him here.

I was more likely going with this:

Created by the Goddesses to help the Hero of time, Shadow was rebellious. Being pulled from the Dark Mirror of the Wind Sorcerror Vaati, he was considered a monster, and decided to "Play the part" back then, filling pots with magic to replenish their contents, even going so far as to make some of the puzzles easier for the true Link in subtle ways. He never truly wanted to kill Link. Just make him a stronger Hero and help him out a bit.

But at the point he enters this RP, he is fed up with serving a purpose predestined by the Goddesses, is mad at them, and all of Hyrule for casting him the "Shadow" in the Legends. He does want to help, but does not want to be constantly labeled a threat as in legends of old. He is essentially just not sure who to turn to since his powers are dark in nature and no one trusts him. add to that his Dark Mirror origins and it is pretty much impossible that Zelda would believe him.

Also... when your voice has a sinister echo it's hard for people to believe all that.

[Lady Seraphina]

Barely more than a teenager, yet she's the one running everything? Her father deathly ill out of nowhere, her elder brother shunned, her mother nowhere to be found?

@Lugubrious

Hey I know you've been copying you're first couple of posts from the old RP so I was wondering is all of that still accurate? In the old RP Zelda's brother was a half-sheikah bastard child of the queen and was taught by Impa in the Sheikah ways. Zelda's father was ill because Ganondorf had one of his minions poison the king. In this RP I don't think Zelda has a brother (unless anyone wants to take up that role) and Ganondorf hasn't arrived in Castle Town to put any sort of plan into action yet.

@Prince of Seraphs

Duly noted.

[GreenGoat]

Hatching up a viable plan before posting.

[Apollosarcher]

@GreenGoat Alight Link is on his way to the castle.

[Apollosarcher]

Also I have opened us back up for new people.

[Abillioncats]

Someone should totally play as Impa, she's a pretty cool character. (Hint hint to anybody wanting to join. =) )

[Lady Seraphina]

Hey Cats and Apollo, given that you're Zelda and Link you too should have a good chat about whatever it is Cats has planned then with relating to my most recent post a guard should come in saying something to the effect of "Pardon your royal highnesses but there is a young girl at the gate demanding an audience with the Princess. She seems unable to enter the castle and will not be removed. She claims to be fairy girl." Or something like that. Then you know Link and Zelda go down to see what's going on and Navi nearly has a heart attack finding out that there is a new Link in town.
