@RedmarshmellowGotcha covered.

@Invader LenI only just noticed you copy/pasted my post in the OP. Avanhelsing told us Henri's height a bit ago as well, do y'mind updating him and Talia?

@Discontent

@SunsetRoses I have to admit I am more than a little afraid. Please make sure everyone's organs stay in the right place XD

@Discontent Don't worry, Len is on the case!

@The Errorist

The butler did it, case closed. Time to go back to my smoky crime noir office in Chicago and wait for some dame with legs in all the right places to walk in.

@Invader Len
Obviously the latter.

What a violent and terrifying world you've created! I thought this was a comfy SoL, dagnabbit!

@Discontent

Bwahahahaha, you fool! This is what happens when you trifle with forces beyond your control! You should know better than to question my plot magic! The punishment is death!

Nah but seriously, if anyone has any questions about lore, game mechanics, history, or anything in the RP, just shoot. There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers. Which I give. I'm very good at stupid answers. :D

St. Fortuna's Academy for the Higher Arts

Here's a random thought I had. What would happen if you 'contracted' with more than one person? Like, two Familiars to a single Mage.

Not that I'm suggesting anything, just a bit curious.

@Discontent

Something like that doesn't happen, since the bond only allows for a single Mage and familiar. Not like it hasn't been tried though. The sacramentum would probably either reject the second familiar and do nothing, or it would explode and they all die. Whichever one you think is a more interesting answer! : D

I know when i'm not welcome. Sorry, but I'm dropping.

I've never challenged your authority in any way or means. I never argued about the things you said to change. Every time you asked me to change something I've edited my CS within literally minutes after you sent the message.

I've never even once refused to change anything at all on my cs! Every single critic you had about it I tried to change it ASAP.

@13org

I'm sorry you feel this way. Good luck on your future RPs.

@Invader Len

I'm not nervous, is just that you really lost me! i never said anything to make any of you mad, i don't see why you had the need to say those things...

I can make another character from 0 as easily as i can fix that one. I just like that image and wanted to use it...

I don't even know what i did to be treated this way...

@13org

For starters, you've been arguing with us every time we come up with a criticism or suggestion. If you can't see why we would be frustrated by this, please reread your past messages and put yourself in our shoes.

We're not singling you out or treating you unfairly. We're responding to you the exact same way we have to every other player who has gone against the rules. The only difference is how long this is being drawn out.

If you want to make a new character, please feel free to submit a new CS. And perhaps take a moment to breathe and calm down. Take a short walk, have some tea, play a video game for a little while. You seem very high strung right now, and it can be difficult to think clearly when on the defensive.

With that being said, we feel as though we've been very fair in our criticism of your character, and that the response we've gotten has been out of proportion to the things we've asked to be corrected. If you feel like this criticism is too harsh, then this may not be the RP for you. We do critique characters when we find they have inconsistencies. We critique them when they have histories that conflict with this world. We critique them when they go against the rules. And we've been very lenient in our critiques, I like to think. I know GM's who don't offer solutions, and some who don't give second chances. However, we eventually decide who gets into this RP or not, and if players exhibit confrontational behavior, such as arguing with us, then saying we didn't argue, it's very disconcerting to us.

Please respect our authority as GM's. When we ask you to change something, please don't waste our time arguing over the definition of violence. If you can't make the changes we ask of you, then this isn't the RP for you.

I'll allow you to try again with a new CS, if you wish. Please keep in mind my words above. We're not attacking you or targeting you. I believe we all have better things to do than engage in bullying one player.

@Invader Len

I'm not refusing!! I'm thinking!!

Wait a second, what happened? i NEVER said i was refusing.

I don't even know how you got to that conclusion! I'm just thinking on how ill change it!!!

Take it easy, i haven't done anything at all...

i repeat, I NEVER SAID I WAS REFUSING TO CHANGE, IM JUST THINKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@13org

Just @ us when you’ve made the necessary changes. We will review your CS then. And please calm down.

St. Fortuna's Academy for the Higher Arts

@onenote

That's exactly what I said. I never said something should or shouldn't be.
I was explaining myself. I felt that the way I was depicting things was a little off from what you know or are familiar with. I was just explained why it sounded so weird to you the way i was depicting a military academy.

As I said earlier, I'm trying to adapt my ideas to your RP. Not the other way around. I never said that I thought things should be some way or another. If you take a look at my CS I'm editing every single bit you tell me to do so.

@13org

You still haven't changed the barbed wire accident. I'm gonna put my foot down on this now, and if he does not have it changed in the next edit, then we will reject your CS. We're well within our rights as GMs to do so, and we have stated multiple times that this level of violence and brutality is banned. Change it to an accident or get rid of it entirely. This is the last I will say on the matter. If you can't see how grenade explosions, violent bullying, and razor wire go against our rules, then I'm sorry, but this RP is not for you. Not being fluent in English is not an excuse for refusing to change your CS to something less violent. We've asked many times for it to be changed, we've been nice, understanding, and have offered alternatives. This is your last chance. Change the backstory, or I'm afraid we will not have a place for you in the RP.

St. Fortuna's Academy for the Higher Arts

@Holy Grail *gives you some smelling salts* That was definitely some break-neck editing there, bucko! As for when partners will be decided, we GMs three will begin discussion, and formulate our results in a mystical, hidden google doc. The results will likely be posted tomorrow afternoon.

As for the schedule, shoot us a PM, and we can work something out!

@13orgWe'll look over your CS shortly. While I can understand that may be the case where you live, you must understand that this is a fantasy world, and the genre is slice of life. We do not want things to be too violent or angsty in this genre, and if you look over past reviews, you'll see we've corrected others who make things too violent/dark/edgy. When it comes down to it though, we have the final say on whether you're accepted or not, and we'd very much appreciate if we didn't have to fight you on our decisions. We don't want to turn people out, but we have a standard to uphold, and violence and torture have been struck from other people's CS's as well. That's why I suggested accidents, if you want to keep your character's scars.

It's not a question of being good enough. We're willing to give everyone a chance. We would just like it if you heeded our criticisms.

@Invader Len

I see. but the spots are filled already, aren't they?
I don't know if it would be of any use if i fixed it.

About the blind thing, it was a typo.
It should be "almost making him blind" but i was literally rushing to try and get my character accepted.

@13org

The original 24 spots are taken, however, we are still accepting people. If you fix up your CS quickly, you will be place on the waiting list and paired with any mages on the waiting list. As it just so happens, there is one. It's up to you if you wish to continue though! :)

St. Fortuna's Academy for the Higher Arts

His face got cut deeply, almost cutting his eye, making him blind. Luckily for him, he didn't suffered any debilitating injury.

@13org

Can you explain this for me? Was he blinded? Was he not blinded? Please clarify.

Also, how was this allowed by the school? Assaulting another student and causing these injuries is worse than a student being lazy or disrespectful. Why did the other students hate him for his attitude? Things just don’t add up. Additionally, wouldn’t the other students be hurting themselves too, by tackling him onto a fence?

In addition, onenote does have a point. How had he done so poorly at the military academy and not been expelled yet? His attitudes, laziness, and grades combined would be enough to get him kicked out, regardless of how well he performed physically. I understand you want him to be rebellious, but I don’t see how he’s going to do much better at St. Fortuna’s with his grades and attitude.

I understand you want your character to have scars, however, we are not comfortable with the two scenarios offered. Might I suggest a car or transport accident, an unfortunate tumble while hiking, or an accident with a wild animal instead?

@Holy Grail Congratulations! You’re accepted! You get an athletic ability, Enhanced Healing! You heal from injuries at a supernatural rate, allowing you to get back up to fight more quickly! It still hurts, however, and serious injuries will take more time to recover from! In addition, you can still be killed by serious injuries, if the damage is done faster than your ability can repair. Currently, you heal from minor injuries, like cuts, bruises, and gashes, in a matter of 6 hours. With training and help, however, you can begin healing from more severe injuries more quickly, and speed up your rate of healing! Definitely a good ability for a fighter!
