Personality: Toby is an odd nut in the tree. He thoroughly believes that everything in life has a soul, and goes as far as to address things as though they could hear and respond back. He is a genuinely kind-hearted and caring individual especially when it comes to 'souls' who help him in his daily life. Many could consider this an odd form of worship.
Biography: Toby's parents were far from rich while they were alive. His father served in the army as a Drill Sergeant, his mother was an American who spent her life to fulfill the dream of coming to Japan. The fateful day his mother came to the Asian country, she collided with Mister Hoshino in the airport as he arrived for a transfer closer to his home town. The two became familiar almost instantly and soon a beautiful relationship as well as Toby was born. His mother, still American in origin decided that rather than deprive her new child of his heritage that she would give him an American name to symbolize the union of Japanese and American that had blessed her with such a happy life, her new husband agreed.Life was good for the three until Toby's father died when he was 13, killed in an accident involving live grenade training. His mother died of heart failure not long after, though many said she simply could not get over the loss of her husband. Even with the hardships of living alone he was well taken care of by his uncle who owned a large company in the Americas. He was provided rent money and a monthly stipend to spend on food, and other activities that may spark his interest on the request that he went to the school of his uncles choosing. Regardless of having the money to take care of himself, Toby works part time at a pawn shop nearby his house where he had the oddest encounter with a broken jukebox. Simply talking to it as though it were a person while polishing it managed to fix the supposedly worn out music box. Ever sense Toby has treated every object in the world with the up-most respect believing that if you treat an objects soul with the care and respect it deserves it will in turn provide you with a small miracle.

edit: god my English sucked there had to fix a few things, sleepiness and writing don't mix kids.

I'd view it as immensely annoying to have to constantly say "this post didn't happen", due to making assumptions about the behaviour or attitudes of a group of entities that I haven't defined yet. Making assumptions about unknowns because they lack nominal importance would be a bad habit from my point of view, especially if things aren't named yet because they haven't had chance to be introduced.

I mean its more of an adaptive form of RP just like in D&D. You can't control what everyone is going to do you simply find ways to make it work. I had a post apocalyptic pen and paper style RP on the old guild I did like half a year ago. One of the players came to my place of business because he got an npc caught in the crossfire and she was dying. He rolled terribly on his "Not look like a psychopath roll" and I slammed the door in his face and called the police. Him and the GM went at each other with the police stuff, GM loved it and managed to get the character saved anyhow because the authorities got involved. Turns out she was an important character for the story, and was the reason we left town to go on an adventure.

And don't tell me I'm thinking of something else and thus wrong? Sorry.I've dealt with tabletop RPG's and video games a lot, which might explain some of the discrepancy. Hmm. 1) The GM is a girl2) I thiiiiink that doesn't work so well if you're trying to have an RP with a solid plot, using NPC's we (the players) know nothing about. Not all NPC's are simply wallpaper.

Ok well he/she whatever its fine and yeah Named NPCs usually get handled by the GM that's why I specified unnamed people and usually just actions not stuff that would require a major diceroll in D&D. Just it doesn't work well to have to wait every time I want to say, hit a rat in a horde of them. My Character is a skilled General from another universe, He has killed many things much larger then a rat and such, but at the same time I can't dramatically effect the situation without the GM's permission so I could put down for example

I launch a corrosive ground shattering blast in the tunnels wiping out a swath of vermin as they creep towards the group, however it is to no avail as the beasts quickly stampeed over their dead brethren faster then anyone can react.

this post would be acceptable in the roleplays that I come from because while I am affecting the situation I am not drastically changing the scenario at hand without the GM's Permission.

same with the bartender situation as I am not expressly trying to do something that changes anything and I am not really trying to woo her I know what my actions are going to provoke and want that action to happen. If my action has an unforeseen consequence like her being a character that provides information and she is no longer going to give that information. The GM would post using her as a character and state that.

Where as in the case of the viewer and people who have names and are significant to driving the story are completely off limits until the GM approves of a serious action against or for them.

Huh. I've been trying to remember the last RPG I played that allowed that, and I think the last one I played was seven years ago.

look dude that's awesome seriously but, could we not try to be mean here? I mean even the last RP I played in not even I think a month ago people like townsfolk, bartenders, and generally everyone who doesn't have a name were controlled by peoples posts. Its just way to insane to expect the GM to tell me that the waitress I called over came over and slapped me when I slapped her buttocks. Like I said though wait for the GM, he will say.

Character Crossover Crisis City

every roleplay I have been a part of for the past 7 years has been everyone has free reign over the npcs with the exception of those specifically for his purposes(main enemies, people of note, etc.) but, let the GM decided how it works when he gets back then we will know whats acceptable and whats not.
