Moonlit Sonata

From Goblins to Gods

@Jangel13

Alright, I'll be as blunt as possible: A cursory look at your posting history and your signature reveals (in about ten seconds) that you app this same character everywhere. As such, you obviously like this character and have an attachment to it as a concept. Consequently, I'll have to ask that, for this RP, you come up with something new.

Also, please do not leave the description tagline in your CS (IE, what's in the "Other" section).

I will also have to say that the Skill is blatantly broken. As I stated above, these abilities should not be broken from the beginning. The ability to speak a language, the affinity to practice a rare magic but still starting off with no experience, and so on are all acceptable. The ability to run faster than "anything else in the world"? Not happening. It shouldn't be an ability that makes you a supreme existence among Goblins; it should be something that gives you the potential to be something special.

There are also mechanical issues from an English standpoint, but I won't be super harsh on those, compared to how I am usually.

When Magical Girl Truants Became Commonplace

...actually, you know what? I'm just not gonna waste more time on this than I have already.

To everyone else present, I want you to know that you shouldn't worry about this happening to you. None of the other apps thus far have warranted the level of response that this one has. You're all wonderful and I hope we can have fun together~

Now then, let's address our newest applicant. My assistants aren't tyrannical enough to do this, so I'll be attending to this personally.

@Markofkri

You know, here's a fun little fact about me. I have my deviant masochistic moments from time-to-time, but that's always something for the short-term. In the long-term, I'm a wholehearted sadist.

So then, let's play, shall we?

Find a towel to bite down on, you lecherous pig~

Er..."normal look" is kind of a bad way of putting things. Try to make it flow better, you know? It's not a big deal, but it just sounds kinda infantile and-

Why do you not put spaces after commas?

Why do you format it like this?

Why do you do this to me?

Did I brutalize you?

What did I do?

Personality: Tom boy big geek for the newest graphics card or pc component loves to photo shop.

...alright. This...this merits some talking down to.

FIRST UP:

THIS IS NOT A PERSONALITY.

THIS IS A LAUNDRY LIST OF TRAITS, AND NOT EVEN A GOOD LAUNDRY LIST. IT IS TWO TRAITS.

TWO.

YOU ARE REDUCING A HUMAN BEING TO TWO TRAITS.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT? THAT'S FINE.

THAT'S NOT A PROBLEM IN ITSELF. HELL, MY CHARACTER IS ONE TRAIT: "LOVE".

THE PROBLEM IS THAT THOSE TRAITS ARE MORE TWO-DIMENSIONAL THAN THE WORDS I AM TYPING RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

ALSO "TOMBOY" IS ONE WORD.

YOU'RE NOT EVEN USING COMPLETE SENTENCES.

Describe how your character thinks, acts, and feels. Don't skimp on this, you pig.

Did you even read this?

That's a legitimate question. Did you?

If so, I don't know how you got to the conclusion that this was okay.

The DESCRIPTION ON WHAT SHOULD GO IN THE PERSONALITY SECTION IS AS LONG AS YOUR ENTIRE PERSONALITY SECTION.

You're not using punctuation. You're not using capitalization. You're not using anything.

I think you're not even trying to employ grammar by this point. I'm reminded of a time when I was five, and saw one of my classmates learning what a period was for the first time. He put a period after every word, ie "The.dog.went.to.the.park."

I honestly think what you have here is worse.

Also:

loves to photo shop

Now, ordinarily, I'd assume this means "shopping for photos". I wasn't aware that was a hobby, but sure, okay, if you have weird hobbies that's cool. It adds some originality, as long as you justify it, explain what they like about it and things like that. The fact that you didn't do any of that just makes it trash, though.

However, seeing as you don't seem to understand English, I'm going to assume you actually meant "photoshop" in one word, as in Adobe Photoshop.

If that is the case, what the actual fuck?

History: I am 14,

...

...

...

Oh.

You're one of those.

You're using.

Fucking.

First.

Person.

I'm not even going to explode about this.

I'm not going to mock it.

I just want you to know I am laughing at you.

Dad is often away on business,

Good for him. At least he's making something of his life.

and mom is in a book club when she is not at work.

Wow, what a fucking nerd.

Mother and I occasionally have dinner together and then a movie after.

I'm going to stop talking about your lack of grasp on the English language. I want to finish this before the Sun finishes fusing hydrogen.

We are a nice family in a modest house.

Is this a game of fucking Mad Libs or something?

I am a only child so I turn to the internet to keep up with current events, trends, and tech.

"She's a tomboy but she spends her life on the computer I promise okay guys back off"

I go to school and get "C"'s

If this is referring to you and not the character, I will honestly be impressed.

I spend too munch time late at night on the school chat forum

Yeah, I spend too munch time on shitty RP sites.

I'm really wasting too munch time on this.

so when its time for school I get there just before the bell. I sleep threw my lunch and day dream during class.

Ah. I hate it when I'm sleeping and then accidentally throw my lunch. That's the worst. You have my condolences.

Magical Power: IO phase induction particle accelitron multi modulating induction field.

...okay, pal, I'mma level with you.

Chuunibyou =/= what the fucking hell

You're just saying things.

"Accelitron" isn't even a word.

You used the word "induction" twice.

Why do you exist?

Standard: I get electric shocks from static all the time!!

Two exclamation marks.

No, no, that's fine.

I said it's fine.

No, I'm not mad.

IT'S FINE. I'M FINE.

When I'm Brushing against someone, the metal in my desk, the hand rails, the water fountain, my chair.

This isn't a sentence.

Why did you use it as a sentence?

Why did you capitalize "Brushing"?

Is it some sort of brand name?

Transformed: I become enveloped with a high out put electric field.

out put

It hurts.

It hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts-

How high of an "out put" does this field have?

How big is the field?

Do you decide these things?

Can you even turn it off?

What the fuck are you doing?

Other: I have a stalker, a boy in school who follows me and sits behind me in class.

You don't get to decide that. I hate it when people give their characters relations to things outside of themselves, or make events that impact the lore or canon of the universe in their biographies, or any of this other trash you're doing. It's heavy-handed, it's contradictory, and it serves no point other than making your character a special snowflake. Stop doing it.

Besides, this trash doesn't even deserve a stalker. Also, no boys allowed.

Oh, you think we're done?

No, no, I'm reviewing your bio as well.

Yes, I am reviewing your profile's bio.

STATUS: Changing the world is easy, living is hard.

I'm living right now. I've been doing it for a while.

I'm not changing the world, though. I'm making fun of a shit character on a roleplaying website.

Your edge isn't even well-sharpened.

Atop the eyeless grey draft horse, bathed in blue flames, the dark figure sat.

TRAAAAAAASH THROWN IIIIIIN A BIIIIIIIIIIN

From the edge of the woods this shade of evil watched. From the inside of the cold steel helm no breath escaped into the air, this figure unmoved by the fear emanating from the village, was still.

THIS GRAAAAAAMMAAAAR IIIIIIIS UNREAAAAAAAAAAL

It could hear the trees and plants nearby dropping their leaves, dying in his presence. A dark tunic covered the fleshless ribs and beneath that was a heart that died before the man did. This evil cared nothing for the suffering this village was under. The evil now at their door step tried hard to remember the last time he cried to the gods unanswered. How many deaths had he watched before it was his turn?

BY GOOOOOD YOU HAAAAAAAVE THE GAAAAAAAAAALL

Evil never sleeps, it is when one walks from the light do they realize just what nightmares lurk in the dark.

I THIIIIINK I'M GOOOOOOONNA KEEEEEELL

"Your light is a lie" he whispered.

Are you real, or are you yourself just a bad OC designed by some malefic deity that wants me to cry?

Some times the most evil act one can commit, is doing nothing while good dies.

I'm pretty sure that in just about every instance, you can be more evil by going around and kicking puppies while good dies.

---

Verdict: Here's the crux of it. If I ignore that you're using first person, ignore the flatness of your character, ignore the terrible writing quality, and ignore the utterly asinine power basis, then there's nothing.

If I ignore this profile's flaws and try to pretend they aren't there, I literally cannot conceptualize that without making your post utterly blank.

Failure is built into the essence of this character.

Denied with the twitch of the right eye, a half-hearted laugh, and the soft sound of crying as the lights dim.

When Magical Girl Truants Became Commonplace

@starfox365
Pervy stacked swimmer girl is still in the review process. I'm waiting for my assistants to get on, in case they have anything to add what I've come up with already. Sorry for the wait~

@Markofkri
PLEASE
MOVE
YOUR
CHARACTER
TO
THE
OOC

YOU ONLY POST IN THE CHAR TAB WHEN IT IS APPROVED.

From Goblins to Gods- A Fantasy Roleplay

And with that, let's get to it. The OOC is up.

I won't say that we're closed just yet. However, I don't want too many players, so any newcomers will probably need to impress me pretty well~

From Goblins to Gods

NOTE: WE ARE FULL. GUILD IS BUGGY AND NOT LETTING ME CHANGE THE STATUS, BUT WE ARE FULL.

Once, you were a human. Maybe you were a salaryman, or a kid on a skateboard, or a third-grade English teacher. Either way, you're dead now, and those memories of your time as a human are lost and forgotten to the swirl of reincarnation.

As quickly as your soul is placed into darkness and stripped clean, it is pulled back out. Light and sounds accelerate, and your eyes crack open for the first time, in a new body.

You're a Goblin.

Born in a small, remote tribe of Goblins in a forest, lacking any knowledge of your geography or of the nature of this world, you are thrust into the world. While only a newborn, the instinct and basic abilities of your kind are ingrained into you. How to communicate, how to hunt, what you must do to survive. This is your life, this is your mind. With time, sufficient experience and growth will open the option for you to evolve from a goblin to a different branch of monster, but this will depend on your own ability.

Just one thing sets this new batch of Goblin juveniles, your clan, apart from the rest. A single facet of their souls, a single "skill" retained from their past life that they do not even know they had. Perhaps an affinity for a rare kind of magic, perhaps a propensity to lead, perhaps the knowledge of a language they don't recall learning. Will this mistake in the cycle of reincarnation lend them the power to break past their limits, or will they simply fall like wild beasts to the onslaught of the world?

Welcome to the game, and do make it entertaining.

The rurus.

Rurus

No metagaming, no godmodding, auto-hitting, no controlling other people's characters, no doing things you shouldn't be able to do. This is all standard stuff.

Yes, you can kill another player's character without permission. That's a part of the freedom you have available to you. However, I as an impartial GM will preside over all such instances. Do not protest my verdicts because you're angry. If you legitimately feel that I am making a mistake, please argue your point rationally, and I will do the same.

No being a bully OOC. You can be a bully IC though. That's totally fine.

If you'll be taking a leave of absence, let me know so everyone doesn't wonder if you died. If you don't do this, tragic things might happen to your character while we're waiting for you to post, which would be really sad.

You are not Yamato Jesus. You are not always right.

And have a spooky character skeleton.

Character Sheet

Name: ...well? No last names though, because Goblin.

Gender: Male, Female, or Genderfluid Transabled Apocalyptic Disaster-kin.

Appearance: You're a green-skinned, four foot tall, ugly piece of work. As such, this section is optional, but if you want to mention some distinguishing factors, feel free. I won't demand a properly full description though. Also, I don't usually say this, but I'd rather you don't put an image, considering everything.

Personality: Describe how your character thinks, acts, and feels. Don't skimp on this, you pig.

Past Life History: This isn't that important, compared to how important it usually is. Considering you won't remember any of this, "growth" that occurred during your past life won't be present, hence why you're a blank slate. If you had a traumatic experience and became afraid of the dark, you won't have that trauma here. If you were born afraid of the dark, though, then you will. As such, the only real reason this section exists is for flavor, and to justify your Skill.

Skill: The rare ability you were born with, as a result of your past life. Ability as in singular; you only get one. If you were an English teacher, maybe you innately know the human language somehow, despite not knowing what a human is. If you were a creepy occultist, maybe you have a rare magic affinity. Just be reasonable, and don't pick anything that makes you broken from the start.

Other: Huh, I wonder what should go here.

The int. check's here, if you wanna check it out.

From Goblins to Gods- A Fantasy Roleplay

Welcome to the party~

I'll probably make the OOC once we get one or two more people.

From Goblins to Gods- A Fantasy Roleplay

Do we have to know much about Re:Monster to participate?

@Hael

You don't need to know a thing. The only reason I bothered mentioning it is so if someone who comes across this thinks "hey, this sounds like re;Monster", they know they're not crazy.

From Goblins to Gods- A Fantasy Roleplay

I'm not promising interest, but I'm not promising not interest...

Also, I'm not promising a lot of activity if I join, because I'm currently planning on starting my own RP for the first time. So that will be taking up lots and lots of my time, I'm sure.

Also also, when you say "monster" do you mean a unique creature that has no relatives, members of the same species, origins, etc.? Or do you mean a member of another species? Do we create our own monsters, or would you prefer we stick with the usual fantasy beasts?

@Hael

Alrighty~

With regards to the other forms of monsters your characters will be able to become, it'll vary. The whole "starting off as low-tier Goblins and then becoming different species" thing is the main idea I took from re;Monster, which is why I said this was partially inspired by it.

Basically, I have a very large list of monsters of varying kinds in my wonderful little mod doc for this. It's extensive enough that I can more or less guarantee that you won't be lacking for options. For each style of how you can play your character, there's a different "evolutionary path", if you will. Let's say you're all about punching things. All you do, all day is punch things. You're the frontline melee monster of your group. In that case, after a while you might evolve into an Ogre-class monster as your first evolution. Or let's say you're all about diplomacy and communication, you spend more time trying to communicate with a human group that showed up last week than with your fellow Goblins, or you try to focus on societal bases. You might evolve into a more humanoid-formed Goblin with better communication and diplomacy skills.

When you've reached the necessary criteria to "evolve", I'll inform you. At that point, you can either accept the evolution, or put it off so you can accept a different one down the road. Also, even after your first evolution, the process can continue. In theory at least, there's no cap on how many evolutions you can undergo. It's a branching path that goes on "forever".

(Of course, my monster list does end at a certain point, but I honestly doubt that'll ever be an issue~)

From there, things can get more in-depth. While most of the "first" evolutions you'll undergo, the ones that change you from a Goblin to X, will be pretty simple in nature, the more you carve out your specific style of playing, the more precise and rare your own species will get. In theory, while you start off as a Goblin, in time it's possible to become something completely different, tailored to the theme of your character. Let's say you take the Ogre route I mentioned above. You do X to evolve into an Ogre; there are plenty of Ogres around, most of them being natural-born, but some of them are monsters who evolved into Ogres, just like you. After a couple of evolutions though, you could go from an Ogre, to, say, something extinct like a Minotaur, where you'll be one of a handful of living examples, if not the only one.

There are also a handful of less obvious routes you can pursue, as well. You can compare them to "secret classes" in RPGs, if you want a conceptual parallel. It's obvious how to become a close combat god, or a strategic mastermind, or an archmage, but it's also possible to have the option to take less obvious evolutions, if you clear the requirements for them. For instance, there's one particularly strange evolutionary path that results in you turning into a Hydra, with more possibilities branching off from there. Some are standard fantasy stuff, some are mythological, some are just plain weird. The rarer a monster you are though, and the greater your abilities, the more attention you'll attract.

It's basically a matter of finding a style that suits you, having your character mold themselves to that style in time, and playing the game how you want it. If you decide you want to basically turn into Typhon, kill all your fellow RPers, and declare war on the world, feel free. If you want to be a diplomatic character who gets tied up in interspecies political and military intrigue, feel free. I'm not going to tell you how to play the game; I'm just the one who builds the world, what happens in that world is up to you. Of course, this also includes the consequences of foolish actions, should any be taken~

Also also also, I like your username, @Moonlit Sonata

Th-Thanks.

Also also also also, yeah, I just said that I like your name for a clever way of mentioning you and, thus, insuring you see this. Yes, I am a terrible manipulator, I know.

Baka-ass bitch.

Magical Girl Delinquents

@Markofkri

Please transfer this to the OOC. We will not be reviewing this until such a time~

From Goblins to Gods- A Fantasy Roleplay

I haven't seen anything like this, seems really unique and I'm interested in partaking in this adventure/roleplay!

When you say we'll "evolve" (used loosely) into other monsters upon growth, will the goblin die and will result in us being reincarnated as the new monster? Or will the Goblin just sort of go to sleep and wake up changed (or something similar to that)?

@ImpLaughs

It'll be the latter, more or less~
