@canaryroseYes! They're phenomenal GMs! I applaud what they've done and it's good to know they have other games up that have lasted longer than the one I'm in. Not that this could compare to their body of work but they're the goal.

@canaryrose It's funny because I've recently enjoyed smaller RPs too (1x1s for that matter). I used to always do group and exclusively those with a much larger player count. But then sometimes you get lost in the shuffle and passed over completely as far as interactions and plotlines go.

I was lucky enough to get into a pretty small scale game months ago that has been great. Really got to know the players well and every post feels less like a chore and more collaborative than I've felt in many RPs before it. The story feels very shared. I'm hoping to provide something similar to everyone here.

I'd almost argue that 5 people, one for each element + no element is a little too on the nose...

@KillamriX88

It's definitely on the nose lol. Before, I had about ten players so there was a very nice mix of multiple elements, but there was also lot of moving pieces. I wanted to focus things a little more for this iteration. But thanks for offering to help! I think that attitude is important for introducing new ideas and keeping things alive and feeling fresh so don't hesitate to offer suggestions. We'll see how things go in the next few days, and after that, the next few months as we get a feel for the story and each other, but I think everyone so far has been stellar.

@Exit On Friday, right? Just making sure it's not actually Saturday and I'm just dumb

@canaryrose

Sorry! Yes!

Just sayin' I wouldn't be offended if a sixth slot opened up.....

@KillamriX88

This is mostly on me. I'm not 100% sure I can handle six players, but if things are going well, there is an option in the plot to open it up to a second group.

This is just to let everyone know that I'm setting a time for the deadline and announcement. Last CSs must be submitted 8am Pacific Friday. Announcement will be 6pm Pacific. I know that means waiting for some (or just the Fire and Non-benders :P ) but it'll give me time to do approvals while at work if anyone else does put in a submission.

Discord invitations will go out at this time. If anyone prefers to avoid Discord, just let me know.

Thank you everyone for your patience and a peak at your amazing writing!

I also updated some information in the library if anyone hasn't noticed yet. It's not much but it's there in case anyone wants to check it out.

There was one other who expressed interest in private so you can expect one more submission before Friday.

@OddApproved That is an incredibly deep way to look at it. And honestly, I really like how you and @canaryrose took to building your characters from two side of the same idea. There was a lot of thought put into the relation of the element to the character and it shows in both sheets.

I like the element your paired with your character. I agree it fits really well.

And I was actually expecting at least one more for air so I'm surprised (again).

I think our Water, Earth and Airbenders explained why they went with their element but maybe the others can chime in and humor my curiosity? Why Fire and why did some of us choose to go without an element?

@Exit I was thinking about it, can I add to my character sheet? I want to add two small things in my extra area. Growing up with participating in mixed martial arts and knowing how to use a synergy gun (specifically a pistol), if that is optional.

@OddApproved

The martial arts is fine. Again, this will stay fairly basic for benders and is really just a difference of being punched versus blocking a punch with the opportunity to counter (and your ability to make it look pretty).

As for the gun, given that Katakuri not only resides in the Upper Ring but is also probably seen in circles of power, I'll allow him knowledge on how to operate a synergy pistol. He of course will still need to get his hands on one if he wants to carry it around in our story. This cannot be done without my approval.
