If anybody has thoughts/peer review or general conversation of the character sheet, that'd be helpful if consensus thinks I should touch it up or whatever. If it's fine as is, I'll try shotgunning plot ideas once tabletop night ends.


So now we have a Blackwater prince and princess. Peachy~

Indeed, I have one or two things to say, but they are on the same topic as my last post.
You have stated that your character is currently eighteen years old and that she was at the age of six when her guardian, Edwic Devian, helped her escape the manhunt of the Briars. Unfortunately, Gowi, that would be impossible, judging from the information Brand has provided us.
Eighteen years ago the world was still at war with Malfear.
Twelve years ago, when your character is six years old, the war with Malfear ends.
When Arthur Blackwater marched his armies against Malfear and his brother-in-law made the coup d'etat it was "during the war with Malfear". I can not imagine the king of a country suddenly remembering "Oh, right, it's been ten years already. Maybe it's high time to get out of my swamp and go to war?" at the very end. It is more likely if it happened in the first few years of the war, when Gorgon helped Valeal push away the invaders.
If you insist on your character being eighteen years old ( and having a twenty seven year gap with her eldest brother), she would have to be a baby, yet I still do not see it working out for you. Perhaps you should increase her age slightly, say, make her twenty and make her guardian set off on the road with her while she's a baby or even in her mother's womb, but her mother dies during childbirth (for the sake of drama).
Once more, I see someone who has not done their math well. Correct me if I am wrong, but I do not see a reasonable explanation for Lucien Blackwater's age written within the post. He is currently 26 years of age and, from the contents of the Biography, it is apparent that he was a ranger in Gorgon's army during the war with Malfear and, while the flames of battle had not yet ceased, he trampled his loyalty and bowed down to the dark forces, consequentially becoming a necromancer. How, if I may ask, could that be possible, when he would have been merely 4 years of age at that time? The war with Malfear began 22 years before the story's present and lasted for 10 years, in other words, it ended 12 years before the story's present. If you still plan on having him become the commander of the rangers at the age of 23, it would mean that he would at least have to be 45 years old, assuming he was given the rank prior to the war, according to how you have written the sheet.
Of course, Dove, don't worry =3 I kind of got caught up with Chemistry and Biology the past few days and couldn't post... that and a character sheet... that and a game a friend of mine showed me that I had to play until late at night because I got addicted XD It's a cute game, if I do say so myself. It's for the phone and it's called "School Idol festival". I'm not that good at it, but I will improve! As for the post, I'm thinking about starting it today and potentially finishing it either tonight, when I come home from classes, or tomorrow.

Spark's still thinking on whether or not to join us. I hope they do =<

Guys I'm really sorry that I have to do this, but I'm not gonna beat around the bush. Long story short, life gave me a big fuck you and I'm not gonna be able to do this RP. Between some money issues and health issues, I'm unable to put in the time that an RP like this would need, so I unfortunately I'm gonna have to drop out of the RP. Sorry to everyone here, especially Viet and Brand. Since Brand the GM here I'm fucking up any possible plot lines Brand had set up, and sorry to Viet since we kind of planned on pairing up.Wish I could continue, but I know I wouldn't be able to put out advance level content with my situation. Again, sorry and I hope the RP works out for you guys.


Now this is a surprise. There goes one of the cool ones. I'm sorry to hear that life has forced you to drop your anchor down to earth, Phantom. I sincerely hope that whatever money issues you have get resolved, but most importantly for your health to improve! We only get one chance with this body, so we should do our best to keep it healthy! May you have a speedy recovery! =3 If you ever need someone to whom you can voice out your worries or a place to get back to role-playing, shoot me a PM!

-Glances past shoulder.- Whatcha hidin? Best thing about being medical is that in addition to knowing how to best help put people together, I know also how to take them apart.


And being in a biology class means you know your anatomy and know all them nice weak spots ^ ^ And I don't have much. 9/11, Binladen, Middle east, all the usual jazz.
*sees all the US militants in the forum* o_o *hides conspiracy theories under the carpet*
^ ^" My, what a lovely group we have.

Everyone, I couldn't come around last night, but I will definitely try to conjure up a post within the next two days, perhaps.

@ Headphones. I need to do a collaboration with you between the Archmage and Skye


Will be sending you a PM.
In chemistry class : THE ENTIRE CLASS IS DYING (metaphorically lol)
Hey, everyone. I just recently woke up and it's 9 in the morning [GTM+2]. I'm currently on the phone and won't be able to sit on the computer until later in the evening, some time past 19 o'clock [7 pm], since I have to study for Chemisty and Biology classes and then have those classes XD.

Hey, quick question. I was browsing some of the character sheets, the tower mages mainly, and a thought occurred to me. All of the tower mages (viet, headphones, and saltwater) are all about the same age, so would they know each other? I mean if they're all tower mages, or at least spent some time in the tower, then they probably would've at least interacted once or twice.Of course I could be completely wrong, as I stated before, due to my schedule keeping me in a state where I'm bound to miss a few details on the slightly slow skims I do for each character. Haven't had a chance to sit down and actually read them in depth yet.


As much as I would like it to be so, Skye would likely know none of the characters, unless they were mages he chased away some time in the past. He studied magic in Ferros and has never gone to the Tower, seeing as Ferros has become hostile towards the order.
It also makes Skye's reasoning all the more right and, believe me, you won't like it when he's right XD

Since magicians are smaller in number, am I to assume that there will be a time when there will be a ban on making magician characters? It seems quite reasonable to try to even out the numbers at some point. Also, can we really switch between calling magical users magicians and mages? I agree that the two words are synonyms, but what is more commonly used in the kingdoms or does it vary from country to country?

And another thing, could you tell us what kind of culture all the kingdoms come close to? Ferros is a bit Nordic and Kain is a bit Arabian. What about the rest? Can I try providing some pictures for them?
Loving the conversation so far, guys XD Especially since my class specialty is biology and chemistry.
I don't know about you all, but I think magicians have a gene or a set of genes, which can be classified as magical or simply responsible for their magic, and one of those genes ( or just the gene ) has to be "unlocked", in order for someone to have magical abilities. I favor two possibilities:
1. A child has to have two recessive "magical activator" genes, in order to have magical abilities.
2. A child has to have a despiralised ( aka active ) gene, in order to have magical abilities.
The first option allows genetics to play a good role in this, whilst the latter - genes and a bit of luck maybe.

Both of Skye's parents were magicians, so I'm safe either way =P

By the way, what season will it be when we begin? Autumn?
