Bio

A writer, artist, animator, worldbuilder. In short, jack of all trades, master of some.

For the most part, I've retired from roleplaying. For quite a long time, what kept me tied to RPG was the Spam community—but even that I have distanced myself from. Now, my focus is on the writing contests.

I consistently try to write reviews for RPGC, and I consistently enter the Twelve Labours.

First labour; world of Archipelago, Jack.
Challenge: an unwelcome death.
For next entry: characterization.

Second labour; world of Uberpowered, Émile.
Challenge: an unfortunate fortune.
For next entry: pacing.

Third labour; world of Cinderlore, Caerys.
Challenge: an unforgiving ambition.
For next entry: proofreading.

Fourth labour; world of Supers, Joshua.
Challenge: an uncompromising betrayal.
For next entry: development.

Fifth labour; world of Mutamorphis, Olrich.
Challenge: an unrepressed motive.
For next entry: development, dammit.

Sixth labour; world of Mythos, Melas.
Challenge: an untenable alliance.
For next entry: dénouement.

Seventh labour; world of Hatemongers, Talahn.
Challenge: an unbearable sacrifice.
For next entry: cast utilization.

Challenge: an unwinnable challenge.
For next entry: plot cohesion.

Ninth labour; world of Nardja, Albiorn.
Challenge: an unknowing accomplice.
For next entry: narrative set-up.

Tenth labour; world of Magestones, Ariana.
Challenge: an unwilling inspiration.
For next entry: narrative set-up, dammit.

Don't most wiki's let you revert back to an earlier version? Allowing easy fixes of any potential vandalism.


Easy when there are just a few, but if we get wiki-raided, it would take a while to fix things. And some raiders frequent the same coasts. Either way, this is a decision you guys should discuss, not me. I'm just a helpful observer. ;]

You said his name and he showed up!What kind of black magic is this.

#Holmishire.

On a side note, you guys could make a new account, and share the pass with a few people for the purposes of allowing multiple people to work on the wiki using a single account.


Well, I personally only have experience with Wikia; that's my forte, if you will. When we created the Blorbs wiki, there were originally a couple trolls who came by to mess up a couple things, but from what I gathered, they all originated from Spam. (Important note: Blorbs is a Spam-centric game.) I was in another wiki for a roleplay a while back, though I wasn't managing that one, and I never noticed anyone coming in and breaking things. Because few people are searching for Renalta, I expect few non-Renalta players would ever come across the wiki, so there would be little need for protection. Though the risk, of course, would always hang over our heads.

Alternatively, Wikispaces I know has systems allowing "private" wikis. (Still free, of course.) We could either make the wiki user-edit only or even user-view only, so there would be no interference from outside individuals, and we could easily manage the creation process. The only big downfall to Wikispaces is that I am not at all familiar with how it works, so it would probably take longer for me to set up shop.

Also, as for my appearance, I check up on LoR every day. I may not be a player right now, but that doesn't stop me from loving it. :] I actually discuss a lot of the events in LoR with other players I'm more familiar with—you might have been around once or twice. I just don't post here unless I have something legitimately useful OoC to offer, in order to respect you guys' right to a place all about the players.
Name: Kaya Lefèvre.
Age: Twenty-seven years old.
Race: Half-asian, half-caucasian.
Sex: Female.
Appearance: Hair is loose, falling shortly above the shoulders, covering ears, leaving forehead bare. Eyes light sandy-brown, outer corners tilted upwards, dark naturally-long (not nearly as long as with extenders) eyelashes. Distinct cheek-bones, partially sunken cheeks. Small, dainty nose. Smooth overall facial structure with somewhat pointy chin. Overall egg-formed head, though more streamlined.

Lithe, a little on the tall side. Pale skin, slight asiatic tint, contrasts notably with black hair. Thin neck, tendons easily visible. Little fat, but also not exceptionally muscular. Thin arms, strong thighs and calves. Bust of middling-to-lower spectrum of size. Thin waist, strong stomach.

Homeland: BC, Canada. Small town from northern coastal region.
History:
Kaya was raised by two immigrants from China, her mother and uncle, who had come to Canada with her father so that she'd have a chance at a better life. (Mixed race individuals are poorly accepted in many countries around the world.) She was told her father had died long ago from an unknown disease, and since then, her uncle had taken his place, acting as a surrogate father.

They were not particularly well-off, but neither were they poor, and Kaya was given the chance to succeed at a respectable school during her teens. Though she didn't make many friends for one reason or another, she made it through high school having made her mark with her physical prowess, surpassing all other students in gym. She even built up a reputation as a good fighter, and many of her colleagues would line up to have a chance to spar with her. She easily defeated them by dodging and knocking them over, but without harming them, making it a popular activity in the neighbourhood.

When she graduated, instead of opting to go to university, she instead went straight into the workforce as a dishwasher, enjoying the simple labour. After a couple years, realising she would never be able to properly sustain herself this way, she joined the RCMP. She served well, though not advancing due to a lack of the correct leadership traits, and made enough money to help out her mother and uncle, so that they could look towards retirement in an out-of-the-way house closer to nature.

She continued to serve with the RCMP, being posted to different parts of BC, until she received the fatal message. With a gut feeling driving her, she put her affairs in order and requested discharge from the RCMP until further notice. They reluctantly agreed, and she made her way to Rune and Things.

Parent: God or Goddess. If God, her mother's her mother. If female, her uncle's her father.

Personal Section

Romance: I'm open to it.
Play style: I like action and dialogue. Missions with straightforward goals—as in you always know what you're doing is working towards that goal, or at least you know why you're doing what you're doing—but complex methods of achieving that goal.
Signature: Kill me slowly, please. Holmishire.
I wouldn't mind helping out. I do have some experience with wiki magic, and I'd be willing to work on templates for now and slowly build up information later.

The only reason the Blorbs wiki is so largely incomplete is because most of the wikiing was done in hindsight. I find it harder to get the motivation to compile a ton of stuff at once than a few things here and there.

Of course, I am still relatively pressed for time—I haven't even finished those character summaries yet—so if it was just me working on it, updates would be very sporadic.

Even better would be to build a sort of safety hut that new players spawn in and old ones can hang out at.


I'm pretty sure they wash up on the shore in groups, not spawn. So while a fort would be useful, they'd have to make it into it from the water. And they wouldn't be completely suckered, because I think Elendra expressed an intent of sending new players in batches, after maybe three or five players die, I dunno.
