Mostly, its the post-size situation since people can get buried pretty easily during a slew of 1-sentence posts between two people taking up a page. I'd hope for maybe a 1-2 or 2-3 paragraph minimum post size requirement, and while I'm sure that this wouldn't necessarily discourage such behavior, its at least a little bit more to look at. >_<

As for a plot, I may have two propositions

1. Heroic! The kingdom's finest being tasked with unseating a demon overlord whose castle rose from the earth in a neighboring desert, corrupting the land and bringing with it all manner of alien flora and fauna which threatens the security of the kingdom. Being that the task is hardly a solo mission, the allied provinces dispatch their heroes to convene along the way (Skipping the 'meeting the king' and a page or two of expositional faff involved with showing up, bowing, and listening. Look, ya got a royal writ from a member of the king's guard...or someone did and then you were sent. Whichever)

2. Unheroic... The kingdom's finest, being tasked with unseating said demon overlord kinda failed just a little...a few times. The survivors are imprisoned in the depths of the castle's dungeon, a machination of temporal rifts into pocket dimensions and views of other planes of existence all serving to be a maze of sorts. From which there is no design to escape, save for hunting down and defeating the Jailers and using their keys to progress to a higher layer. In their arrogance, the overlord's wild magic opens these tears in dimensions to sections of lands capable of possessing their own variant of magic and magical tools holding the potential to aid the party. (Kinda more like a dungeon crawl with a twist that changes up the setting, periodically, with occasional lulls in activity since a rift could very well open up to an inn or the like)

(Yes, I am implying I could at least CO-GM if need be. (I've been intending on running the second one for a while. >x> ))

Certainly keen for the fantasy setting. I'm not big on free RP but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested. ^^;

The focused eye flicked between Gerard's hands and the sections of the device he described. While etching the spoken details in his mind, Kaite continued to fumble over the thought as he endeavored to place reason behind the man's words and toil on the piano, simultaneously. Once Voss concluded his explanation, Katie once again spoke up, "Alzough I vould be intrigued to hear a less abridged version ouf your armament's finer details, eit vould haf to be at a later date."

There came a slight pause, as Kaite flourished on the keys, both eyes snapping back to the gesture before the other drifted once more to Gerard. "I had szought myself busy, ehn iz difficult to discern your elaborations on notion alone...especially vith such an accent zeht you possess," he concluded with a palpable second of hesitation before offering a sound which held a pace and tone as if it were intended to be a small chuckle, though it came out with a hiss and a blur of notes like trying to laugh through a musical instrument and almost managing to pull it off.
Just then, the roar shook through the establishment, rattling some of the glassware on shelves. Kaite, however, continued playing without missing a beat, though his eyes realigned to look out the window with a tilted head. As nothing immediately happened, he would not have given it another thought until Gerard offered for them to accompany him.

Surprisingly, Kaite simply stood, abandoning the instrument he had been just about to disregard the potential danger for. "Certainly. Iz certainly a curious land vith such sounds describable to be equally so, ah?" Kaite chirped, unperturbed and resolutely pleasant in his same expression as he put the cover back over the keys of the piano and waved his arms at his sides to re-settle the sleeves he had rolled up, seemingly ready to go in an instant.

Kaite's hands moved in fluid, practiced motions mirrored after observing a pianist once upon a time. The process ran instinctively as his mind raced with each face that he could pick out of the crowd, considering interactions with them before dismissing the idea [in favor of enjoying the task at hand]. Beginning another set, Kaite had immediately taken notice of Gerard entering the establishment, an eye lifting a bit higher than the other to watch the man place his order and seat themselves nearby.
As his briefly-known acquaintance began to speak, the construct's eyelids clicked with the impact of the material he was composed of, centering his eyes with the same sound as each finger pressing a key.

"Someone does! At least, I vould suppose so, ah?" Kaite ambiguously chirped in agreement, nodding to Gerard, an eye sticking from the slight glance. While one continued to focus on the keys, the other observed the man's work. Though his expression was locked in pleasant neutrality, there was more behind the stare than the looks others would have given him.
Patrons had come in with armaments of flint or wheellock , though the contraption Gerard operated on was curiously different in how familiar the aura it gave off was. "Iz...relaxant, havink tasks to keep zee hands busy. Order and pace, needink only zee right tools to keep time ehn measure tasks complete. You vould agree, Mister Gerard Voss?" Kaite began, probably being a bit bold in calling him by name though the two had not been so much introduced as the doll had merely overheard them introducing themselves to Kay. The notion of brashness did not seem to even occur as the music steadily droned on. "If I may ask, vaht iz eit you are doink? I may not haf previously been exposed to such a device," Kaite continued with his question, accent thick and vernacular painting a peek into an alien reasoning which concluded with, "Paerdon. I am now very curious of eits function."

Considering having Kaite starte to wanderte.
(I know what I did. No, its not funny.)

Not too sure where, though. <_>

Working on getting to the 'group' part, but its pretty swood, so far.

Edit: Speaking of overwhelming power, what do you guys think about gods/goddesses being written in as actual beings, probably not allowed as PCs but might eventually make an appearance.

@Jojo

I really shouldn't comment.
There wouldn't be much that could be of benefit.

With Kaite lacking a 'soul' it doesn't make much sense that any daeific-intervention of any capacity would have the capacity to impose themselves.

EDIT: Wow I was hilariously drunk last night. Apparently wrote a post with Kaite murdering three people.

Oh, something I should mention. I know not a lot of the characters so far actually use magic other than Arlo but it's something interesting to know regardless.

You can force your body to take in more mana than it can hold, but if you do it in excess you'll disintegrate.

@Jojo

Kaite has limiters and capacitors wholly aware of his abilities.
While he always functions at 100%, that is all he is capable of, with that understanding.

EDIT: Kaite's Cannon feeds off of mana.

Local "Jam Man" Terrorizes Regional Farmers.
"Spoon Sire" and "Toaster" claim to be on the case.

But really, that's super cute. I'm sure Kaite wouldn't have a problem with giving Cider a big ol sh- no... smoosh for saving them from what Kaite perceived as being a bottomless pit.
Given the chance, Kaite would totally teach them Isparian and what animals are fair game...like squirrels and roaches and wasps...

Yeah we got Liches and Death Knights and Vindictive Dragonesses, but the downfall of the first city will be by the hands of a golem without a master just kinda...doin stuff...and bringing slimes in and feeding the shadow sprites.

Kinda making everything worse because they don't know better.

EDIT: Kaite isn't evil, hes just simple with malicious design.
