[OOC] A Tale of Thieves - Part One; Running and Hiding

[PhoenixWhite]

@Mega Birb You can act whenever you wish, the 'dossier' as I initially put it is purely extra/superficial and is just my vision for some of the things I see on your sheet.

I apologize for the absence today, but sundays are days I set aside for D&D and schoolwork, so for future reference...

But yes, Birb, I'll get the extra tidbits to you ASAP, but you are in no way confined to limbo until I get it to you.

[Mega Birb]

@PhoenixWhite Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding. I'll have something up for tomorrow.

[Mega Birb]

Bam, I did something.

[PhoenixWhite]

Awesome
Birb did my job for me
I no longer have to think of a sly manner of dragging him along, huzzah

I mean, cool, you took initiative. I thoroughly enjoy that xD

--Edit--
Something that's peculiar about me, that I feel I should note for you guys in case I take things too slow and you want me to expedite some things, is that I adore world building and narrative description- and because of this, I'll gladly give more detail if you ever ask for it [Unless a lack of detail suits the situation better], and if you ever simply want to walk around the Circuit or Polis I'll gladly just describe the world around you and try to bring it to life.

You can be as freeform as you want when it comes to doing things, I'll never force you onto a railroad unless you guys ask me to. If you want to just wander around and go hang out at bars and take things slower, I'll make it as fun and real of a process as I can with my semi-random world building.

If you want to go 'fuck it, Polis and Circuit suck' and go somewhere else in the world, though, you'd have to give me a bit of forward planning time, as I've essentially only really built Polis/Circuit.

I just want you guys to know, very firmly, that you can be as freeform and sandbox as you feel the need to be.

[Mega Birb]

@PhoenixWhite Yeah, I try to take the work load off others where I can.

Also, Elder Scrolls reference in the Elvenkin bit. Like Orckin, just with elves. If that's a little broken I can redact the post.

[PhoenixWhite]

Huh. I like the idea, and although it did blindside me a bit I'll typically not shut down a player's idea unless it directly contradicts the character.

This sort of thing is difficult for me to weigh in on at the moment, but in general, just as a sort of societal placement sort of thing, elves and orcs and dwarves and goblins and anything else of that nature would, more or less, be treated as an oppressed mutated minority.

I like the idea, as I said, and I'd say it's actually at least semi-valid for this sort of Circuit situation.

[Mega Birb]

So are we gonna wait for someone else to post or..?

[PhoenixWhite]

In these beginning parts of the roleplay until we get to the 'first job' [Which would be this task the Big Man is setting up], it will be a curious buildup process for the characters to be established and all have their own angles and reasons for being there. @Mega Birb

I post/reply whenever I have a chance, so I am trying to keep things rather speedy when possible, but I'm someone who deeply enjoys these introductions and whatnot.

[Aurrorian]

Giving other players the go ahead to post before of me, so we're all working at about the same pace.

[Sypherkhode822]

Phoenix, this is absolutely nothing personal, and I'm doing this for your own good, but:

I'm regretfully dropping from this game.

I was really enjoying it, but since I haven't been able to keep up on my end, I think it's best if I was downsizing on my RP actions.

While I was looking forward to see how it progressed, I'm a little swamped with schooling, so I'm losing a lot of freetime which I would have devoted to RPing.

And since I'm holding up everyone else, that's no good.

I hope that if my schedule (improbably) clears up, I'll be able to see if I can return to Polis.

In the meantime, best of luck to everyone, and look out for those undercover cops.

[PhoenixWhite]

Ah, tis fine Sypher. I'm glad you got word to us about it. I'll shunt John into Limbo for you if you want to come back later.

As for everyone else- I'll expedite the process of getting you together. I'm not fond of stagnation, and I'm getting the vague internet vibe that you guys want to be put together sooner rather than later, so I'll speed things up a bit when I get to a-posting.

[Mega Birb]

Is it always this quite?

[PhoenixWhite]

I have noticed a distinct and consistent quietness in the OOC yes, although I am typically lurking/always checking back rather frequently myself- at least, OOCly. ICly I respond whenever I can.

[Mega Birb]

Stagnancy is real

[Aurrorian]

I'm waiting...unless we're just going to zoom ahead of the others.

[Mega Birb]

@Aurrorian I guess they could catch up. Intros need to be done, anyway.

[Mega Birb]

Come on, guys. I really want this group to work, it's an amazing concept that could honestly go far.

[PhoenixWhite]

I would hate to scrap it//mark it as dead as well, but unless we get a bit of a revival going on I'll have to do so some point soon.

If everyone's lost interest or has moved on, do say so at least.

If people do find their way back here, post/chat here OOCly/make yourselves known so I don't consider this a ghost town by the end of the week.

[Aurrorian]

*waves hand frantically while clutching throat* Smell of death...can't-breathe...bleh.

[PhoenixWhite]

Quick! Bring the air fresheners! The colognes! The perfumes!
In all seriousness I'll not have any hard feelings for people disappearing, every failure serves as a lesson in improvement.
