@Vicier I'm almost positive Eli is ready for the character page and his intro post. Corrected the drug cabin pact, and focused his Demi-abilities on more of his legacy but he still inherited a core ability from Eris but the description of shorter than the other because it's kinda hard for me to explain how someone could manipulate Discord besides the obvious.


I like it a lot; the powers from his mother are a lot more balanced, and the powers you gave him from his legacy just help to instill that gambling type background that you wanted him to have. Also, I most definitely believe that at least /one/ of the Demeter kids would be the drug thpe, so it's definitely more believable for him to get his supply from there, than from the Artemis cabin.

Welcome to the camp..! Feel free to start/post an introduction for him; and don't be afraid to interact with any of the characters already milling about. I look forward to seeing him in action. As soon as I get home, like all the others, I'll pop his CS into the character page. I've already finished work, and I'm almost there so it shouldn't be too much longer :D

@Vicier SUCCESS!! Also just reviewed the first quest details. Who'd better to be affiliated with potential war of the gods then Eli's mother. I'm now debating on joining the quest (if possible) he may be a target at Camp if he stays. But staying and leaving both holds potential benefits that I'm not yet ready to reveal.

****EDIT

Is it possible to have two NPC's sorry for editing post just don't wanna spam the OOC. But sometimes when character interaction is low I like to fall into my own little world. My NPCs would be at the disposal of anyone in the camp to use for their benefit if applicable

Of course; you're more than welcome to use as many NPC's as you wish- just however, be sure to keep into account what others have mentioned within their posts and such. For example, I wouldn't NPC a character from the Dionysus or Morpheus cabin, as there are only two campers in both of these cabins. Same with the cabins of the big three- because of the restriction, if there is no character within those cabins, assume that they are empty.

Also, yeah; you're the first person to mention the quest... I should probably explain how they work shouldn't I..? x'D

Hey everyone..!

I have some important things to tell you all..! These things will range from plot twists, story arches, quests, special events, games, ect. There will never be a dull moment in the camp; and a big part of thinking it all up, and planning everything out is you guys..! So here goes nothing! Wish me luck, and pray to the Gods everything I write makes sense! x'D





Ideas, Plots, and Story Arches


Got an idea in your mind..? A plot..? Any story arches (both small and long) that can be played out over time..? Come at me people..! If you have an idea that you think is good, if you have a plot that will be fun for everyone involved; if you have a whole story arch in mind that's filled with drama... romance... and all that jazz- then don't hesitate to tell me about it..! I want to hear your ideas..! Honest, and truly, I really wanna hear them..!

This roleplay is not just for me... it's for you guys as well; and I love more than anything to hear your ideas, and to try my best to help make them a reality by incorporating them into the story. All you need to do is talk to me about them- shoot me a PM, mention it in the OOC; either one is completely fine by me, I will always get back to you, even if it might take me a little bit of time to do so. My job as your GM is to make the roleplay as fun as it possibly can be for you all; it's my job- and I have a white board..! Not to mention my trusty document that I save religiously onto my USB that's strictly for roleplaying. I will write it all down, and together with my Co-GM, we'll start working to incorporate it into the fun..!





Quests


I know that we have only just started up the roleplay; but yes, that's right- we have a quest that's already up and will be beginning very shortly. Everyone will have a chance to go out on quests, and have them added to their character's resumes, though I don't think that potential employers take into consideration things like fighting off an ancient cyclops to get a golden fleece... I do have other ideas floating around in my mind, so fret not; if your character doesn't get the chance to be on this particular quest, there will be plenty of other opportunities, and there will also be plenty of things going on in camp at the same time to keep those still there occupied- trust me, aside from the aftermath and picking up the pieces from the affects the quests leave on the camp, there should not be a dull moment. All I ask is that you be patient with me, and if you have an idea for a quest, throw it my way too..! I'm always willing to listen to what you guys want.

As for how the quests will be run, that's just what I'm about to tell you. :D

When a quest is first put together like the one we have up now; both myself and my Co-GM will discuss between the both of us which character is going to become the leader of the quest. For example; this time around, the quest leader is going to be Griffin. Once the leader has been chosen, I will notify that character's writer, and let them know what's going on- the writer will be notified of this in advance of the quest beginning, this allows them a chance to think about what other characters they personally believe will be right to take on the quest, and let me and my Co-GM know who they have chosen. The amount of characters chosen may vary from quest to quest; though aside from the leader, there will more times than none be three others who go with.

The announcement of quests within the roleplay will be made by either Chiron or Mr.D themselves, and on the rare occasion, they may also be made from the other Gods and Goddesses. Do not grow comfortable with what you believe a quest will be; not all quests will involve fetching an item that has been stolen or lost... and not all quests will be from the Greek pantheon either. Once the announcement has been made, either to the council of cabin leaders or to the camp as a whole, the person who has been chosen to lead the quest will be asked to select the campers they want to go with them- aside from me and my Co-GM, this is where everyone finds out who will be going on the quest.

Once all of that has been sorted out and announced; the quest leader will then be sent up to see the Oracle, Rachel Elizabeth Dare, to get the prophecy. From there, the quest has officially begun, and the group will work together to either make it a success... or a failure.





Games


If you wish to have one of the activities (obstacle course, capture the flag, trial of dreams, ect.) started up in the roleplay for a bit of fun for our characters, please feel free to shoot a message to me in the OOC. For the activities to get the okay to be started up, I ask that at least six of the characters (more than one character for each person is allowed in this) to have interest in participating in the game; this way it helps to bring more competition, and fun to writing it all up.

There will be occasions where a game of capture the flag will be automatically initiated; these times will be when the Hunters of Artemis come to stay at the camp, and the game will be held respectfully on the day following their arrival.





Special Events


This was something that I really wanted to implement in my last reboot of the roleplay; however due to certain circumstances, I was never able to do so completely.

Halloween, Christmas, Easter, New Years, Australia Day, and any other holiday that our wonderful demigods hold ties to- our characters will be able to experience it all; and some of them, well, they'll even be helping to run the show. There will be three days over each holiday that we, and our characters will be able to celebrate. So for example: the 30th of October, the 31st of October, and the 1st of November will be dedicated to scaring each other, and awesome Halloween parties- the demigod helping to organize this will be Erin. Whereas the 24th, 25th, and the 26th of December (not to mention the typical lead up to those days) will be dedicated to the wonderful holiday of Christmas- this holiday will be organized by the resident holiday cheer demigod, Roy.

Once the three days is up, things will once more return to normal... or well, as normal as you can really get at Camp Half-Blood, right..? And don't worry; during these times I will be sure to schedule any games, quests, ect. on days leading up to and away from holidays so that we won’t have to worry about any of our characters missing out on any of the fun going on in the camp. I also have an idea involving birth dates, however that is something that will be introduced at a later date.

All quests will be done in the IC thread; and links will be posted to the 'Quests' list in the OOC so that people are able to go back through and read them if they so wish to do so. Each post made for a Quest will be labeled clearly at the top- for example, if my character Aella were to go on the quest for Aphrodite's Dove, the top of her post might look like this:


Aella Lorraine Stedford

Leaning Tower of Pisa ~ Quest ~ Aphrodite's Dove


It clearly shows that she is/ is arriving at the leaning tower of Pisa... that she is on the quest... and then which quest it is that she's actually on at the time. This will help to keep confusion from coming up during the posts; and will give those not involved in the quest a chance to see what's happening to those who are, if they so wish to do so. :3

Intro post up for the child of Eris. Feel free to interact, come hit the doob or something lol. Gonna scribble two NPC characters tomorrow morning. Another male and a female, just debating on which cabin would be easiest to drop them in. I seriously want to do a child of a Gorgon, not Medusa of course. That would be cliche but one of her sisters. If my memory serves me right she had one sister hell bent on mercileas mudering?

@Vicier Thanks for the positive feedback! To be honest, I'm a little surprised that no one else has made a similar character before.

I'm working on an opening post now and will have it up hopefully tomorrow.

Question: Do I HAVE to use a face claim picture? Because honestly, I'm someone who just generally prefers to write and have the characters in my mind. I'd prefer not assosciating them with someone teen model or actor. So, just text description?

For NPC's you don't need to write up any CS's. You can just write them into your post. :3

As for your second character idea; I'll need to talk to my Co-GM about the idea of a child of a gorgon... it isn't something that we've discussed before, and thanks to the powers that would be passed along, it's something that we'll have to think about. Other than that, the other types of characters that we're accepting already are satyr's, cyclopses', and amazons :D

If you wish to write up a description for your character, that's more than acceptable; however, I would prefer there be an actual face-claim picture there for reference, just so others (even while reading the description) can get a visual representation of what it is you're trying to go for. :3

@Vicier I'd prefer the text, and thank you for giving me that option. Question! Because all I have left is backstory...

Riordian writes that Tyche is the hardest of the goddesses to find. And she's the goddess of luck... would it be alright if Bran (my character) won the jackpot for Demigods: a normal childhood. No monsters, no magic, just a loving mother and father and siblings. Mundane and boring, but peaceful. Tyche more or less played the mortal mom role for awhile, so he knows (and loves her) on a more personal level.

At the very least it's different from everyone's 'my godly parent left and this had caused strife and angst!'

Just because she's the Goddess of luck, and with that, they would obviously have luck on their side; I'll allow it.

I'll post in the morning � job hunting today exhausted my mind of all creativity. Will be responding to Erin and Sy, throw some Matthew interaction in there too.

Before Eli lost his memory if it's okay with GhostShadow to request that he and Griffin have had a everlasting rivalry? Never seeing eye to but continuously challenging each other because deep down they both know they better themselves and each other 😊

Also waiting on Octavia's intro, she seems interesting.

***

Didn't notice how quickly the group accumulated on the stone seats. Guess I'll have a little piece for everyone lol

Haha; yeah, the group grew pretty quickly actually, I love it though. Everyone's together in the one area, so it'll make it easier for when the Chiron/Dionysus post goes up to announce the quest.

As far as the rivalry between Eli and Griff; I don't think he'll have a problem with it, but I would just shoot him a PM about it anyway, and I'll message him over Skype about it too just to make sure he checks his messages.

As for Octavia... I was thinking about bringing her in after the quest- but I'm still debating. But you're right, she's going to be a very interesting character... I cant wait to see how everyone at camp will react to her, loll. My next character to be introduced in is Aella, once I get home, I'll get her intro sorted and posted up for you all. :'D
