Spirit of the Beast (Modern Fantasy RP)

Any advance on the plot of the RP? Also how are Krakens more common than Hydras? To my knowledge there is generally only one Kraken in different Mythologies whilst some have multiple Hydras. Just interested which Mythology has common Krakens. But with the partial morphing ability I can already envision a Kraken spirit, possibly I can only morph when I'm in water and I get tentacles etc. Just sounds more epic to me being the big bad Kraken. Having said that whilst I think Hydra would be harder it could work. It depends on the storyline I suppose.

I meant that Krakens are more commonly know than hydras, therefore more commonly used in RPs. As I said, you may use the Kraken if you wish, I won't stop you.

Thanks for clarifying! I asked about Cryptids mainly because a Kelpie is also known as a Water Horse and the Loch Ness Monster is, among other things, considered by some to be a modern day water horse.

True, but the species are different, as Kelpie are normally depicted as looking very similar to a horse. Also, Kelpie are oftentimes considered evil or mischievous, or both. Sometimes they are nice, but more often they aren't.

my understanding of Golems is that they are commonly animated clay, shaped roughly like a man (basically an old, magically powered, robot). Anyway, I'm interested, maybe as a Kelpie. Edit: Would you allow Cryptids? Or strictly a creature with a mythology behind it?

No, I'm going to have to say no to Cryptids. When I say mythological I don't necessarily mean only those creatures that appear in mythology. I was thinking along the lines of creatures from mythology AND fantasy lore. I'll amend my original statement to make that more clear.

i am interested. I like the idea and the potential on our characters, like the foremention summoning, maybe morphing, and magic.I am a big fan of the chimera.

I must point out that I never actually said anything about summoning. If you look at my original post, I mentioned that the "spirit" appeared as a creature shaped aura around the one who possesses it. Magic is possible, within the bounds of the creature's abilities, and partial morphing as well. You will not, however, be turning completely into those creatures. When I say partial morphing, I mean that you may acquire certain physical attributes of the creatures. For example, someone who has a gryphon aura may be able to morph wings and claws.

When I say humanoid, I largely mean sentient humanoid, humanoids with human like intelligence. Therefore, golems would be fine.

WeepingLiberty said
What about a gargoyle spirit? Does that count? Definitely interested.

Yes, gargoyle spirits are fine. I've decided not to do humanoids, because it makes more sense to have the spirits be beasts rather than sentient races. Otherwise the spirit might have it's own personality and everything.

Interested.Edit: By the by I'm probably looking to be something like a Hydra or possibly a Kraken. Something Greek-Myth orientated.

Both of those would be acceptable, though personally I would like to see a Hydra more than a Kraken, as Krakens are a bit more common. I'm not going to preclude you from doing it however, it's just a suggestion.

Okay, this in an idea that I have been wanting to post, but haven't been sure whether it would be too many roleplays for me or not. I've decided to go ahead and do it. Basically, the plot is that there are a whole bunch of unique individuals in a certain city who basically possess the spirit of a mythological or fantastical creature. That's creature, not being. That means that any humanoid races are not accepted. For example, no one could have an elf spirit or a lizard man spirit or anything. Instead, they'd have like, maybe a mimic, or a gryphon, or a troll or something like that. This spirit would manifest as an aura, giving them powers similar to the beast. Only those who possess these spirits can see the spirits of each other. (Possibility of creating a way for normal humans to see them through the use of some sort of technological device). Everyone who has one of these beast spirits doesn't necessarily know it right away. Each spirit manifests itself in a different way. So, one person might manifest right after they are born, while another may undergo a traumatic event that triggers it, or a third person might be trigger it after a certain life change, such as having a baby or something. That part is largely up to the player, as long as I approve it.

I am encouraging people to be creative with their selections, no need to stick to the same old creatures that everyone uses. For example, while phoenixes are really neat, they are also a fairly common choice. Furthermore, there are no undead spirits, as you can't have a spirit of something that is dead. If I get enough interest in this, I'll detail a list of creatures that are not accepted. If it isn't on the list and it's a fantasy creature, you'll probably (not definitely, but probably) be allowed to do it. The plot of the story is something I'll work out if I get some interest. So then, any takers? ^_^

Ah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. ^_^ Thanks for your help.

Hmmm, all right. Though, I'm a bit confused as to how the mods would do it. Would it be that the GM would send in a request to delete those posts, and they would read them and decide whether to do it? Because, in the scenerios I've experienced, oftentimes the person who posted the post that caused the disruption is either not willing to change it, or is simply not informed quickly enough and the other roleplayers react to the disrupting scenario, causing the RP to spiral into a whole bunch of conflict and confusion. That is what the GM would want to avoid. Then the only way to fix it after that would be to message each person who'd posted after the disrupting post and inform them that the original post had been changed (assuming the original poster was willing to change it) and hope that they don't all complain about losing their posts and ideas that they put time into.

The Bandit King

Kurokuma was mildly intrigued by the young noble, and more than a little bit suprised at his proposal to rescue these other nobles in order to further their cause. He listened to Sable's plan and the additional input of the noble, who had sat down nearby. His interest and curiousity were roused even further at the tactical mind of the noble, who apparently had given this quite a bit of thought. He turned to Sable when the noble was finished and said, "Well then, it seems as our young noble has decided to join us permanently, since he is so eager to help us build our reputation. Go and inform the men that they should prepare to move out. Oh, and fetch Lucas, and Grace if you can find her. I'd like to discuss my plan for this ambush, or rescue, or whatever it is."

His attention then turned back to the noble and he strode up to him, his piercing gaze boring into him. "I'll speak plainly, since you have already offered me that courtesy yourself. I don't like diplomats. I find that they are devious and selfish and worthless as men. However, you have piqued my interest with your willingness to provide information. In return, I won't have you killed, neither will you be regarded as a prisoner. However, I shall be keeping a close eye on you, so I wouldn't try to pull anything shifty. If I so much as suspect that you've led us into a trap, I'll have Sable go to work on you." A large grin spread over his face. "Sable is quite talented in extracting information. But I'm sure it won't come to that. Now, why don't you come with me and we'll see about coming up with a battle plan for this little job you've suggested. Not that I believe you'll have much to say in the way of suggestions, but your knowledge of the towns might prove useful. Besides, as I already said, I'm not letting you out of my sight. " He turned around again, striding into his cave once more, not even checking to see if the noble would follow. He knew he would.
