That works. Didn't know such a thing as Titanpad existed. Thanks for the tip.
So, the new peeps coming in on the shuttle are @DarkRecon, me, and... who?
And on that note, do you guys want to do a collab for that, or should we just enter with the next 'groupish thingy announcer GM' post?
I'd be able to but not sure how that'll work. I could pop into the RPGuild chat room if we had to do this "live" but there's always a bunch of people in there. Might make things difficult. I have Skype but not sure if that'd be any better or if anyone even has it or even WANTS to use it.
But right now, I do have some time so yeah, I'm up for it anyway.
Well sorry for the holdup but I think I worked stuff out with AtomicNut and Ariamis. I guess all that leaves is the ok to start the next..."chapter" I guess? I figured the mock battle was chapter 1 of this RP.

What purpose does the split personality serve? I am sorry but from what I have seen, that tends to annoy more than actually work.
Ah well. At this point I am going to say, you have an approved character, so you are free to play already. But we do not commit ourselves to expand any plot hooks you may have had with that character.
I also strongly reccomend that you forget about tweaking Mai and start from scratch a new character, if you wish to avoid the duplicity I mentioned. And avoid split personalities and disobedience. That won't end well. Before the first battle, even.
Yeah I've already asked Ariamis about this. Since her personal history and such is pretty much up in the air, figured he could do something to fit it into whatever plots he has in mind since it seems like anything I come up with at this point is...annoying everyone here -______-'

Well, to be honest, an uppity knowitall who's the daughter of an ace and shoves her pilot daughter swag to everyone would be fun to see.
That...could be a good idea but I have trouble RPing as...arrogant or "higher than thou" types. The split personality that I metion. And I thought about a serious type but she holds a grudge against the framework divisions, especially Lorenzo, because she believes that they pushed her mom so hard that the story she heard was that she committed suiside. Eh. I'm sure there's someone like that in the group already but yeah, someone who doesn't take orders from guys like Lorenzo well.
Ugh...it's sounding like I should change Mai into some uptight jerk considering all other types of perona's are already taken. Hard to be original...lovely <_<
Well...if personality is the problem, I could go with a split personality approach. Have Mai be the normal persona but have Seven be the trained killer.

Well, here's the thing after talking with Ariamis...
You can keep the character if you want to as is. (Barring adapting the sheet, I've seen some obsolete fields). Be warned though, there's already a clone child program with stoic loony kids. We'll have to do some juggling and hope it doesn't explode in our faces.
Although I'm willing to haggle to avoid the duplicity as much as possible. We could try making a clone of the same faildoll program, but well, most of them if not all blew up.
...Or streamline it a bit and make her simply a gruff child of an ace pilot. To be honest she could be a good addition with the streamlined bits. (no special program, no special powers).
Hmm...well let's see how it goes. Knowing Ariamis though, he'd probably like to suggest something for Mai.
This is sort of a spoiler but not official so don't worry about this part.
Though I have some idea's myself. For one, the Division Mai was from I had planned. It had a name called "Hell Six". It was supposed to be a boogyman story of sorts. The story was that any cadet's who didn't behave or kept dissrespecting their superiors were sent there as punishment. The scientist there "Caulder" (do a search for "Advance Wars: Days of Ruin" to see a picture of his namesake) was a cruel type but one that made even Lorenzo look like a cute puppy in comparison (if that's even possible -___-'). Caulder believed that human feelings only distracted pilots so he took in cadets that either were offsprings to highly skilled pilots or any he knew that could handle the extreme physical and mental demands of his division. The interesting "twist" I was thinking was that despite all this, there were never any "deaths" in his division though he only took in "six" cadets at any time. Though he had made an exception with Mai (hence her middle name "Seven") because she showed lots of potential and perhaps her special ability like her mother Maria.
My idea was to sort of make him a seperate bad guy since he didn't like the direction the other divisions were going to protect humanity. Perhaps he even didn't like the "cloning" program in this case.
Eh...wow I said alot here -____-'. Well anyways, just shooting ideas with what to do with Mai's past.
Well, there might be a way to place a rival, but it'd be highly unorthodox and would involve a fellow faildoll clone...hmm
...OOOOOR.... how about her being Irina's ACTUAL daughter? or a relative.
Um. Well, this is awkward.
Heh. Even so, creative thinking.
Originally, Mai's mother was simply going to be a random NPC called "Maria "Angel" Twilight". During the early parts of the war, she was one of a handful of pilots that achieved 100% perfect synchro as well as a special power. I could elaborate more but it's a bit of a spoiler that I want to clear with Ariamis first. I did briefly talk to him about it in the other RP but things didn't get that far for me to introduce it into that RP.
