Current My roleplay is all tabletop these days, and the part of the guild I used to hang out in doesn't exist anymore. To my friends from this site, I will think of you, and maybe I'll see you again someday.

To my friends from chat: I guess I'll see you around, since I'm still not using discord.

I don't actively RP on the site these days, but I might be convinced to come back if there's a cool fantasy or sci-fi group RP that can capture my interest. Catch me on Second Life, Wildstar, or Chat.

My life has gotten really chaotic. I'll be back to RPing when I can.

I need a good generic fantasy RP, but I can't find one.

THE UNCRUSHING OF DREAMS SEEMS TEMPTING NOW, RIGHT? You get your Gnolls, and more people!


I knew that I was removing a race that I wanted to play when I first made the rule. That should, in theory, give you some idea of how final my decision is on it, that I was willing to get rid of something I wanted to use to make it happen.

I thought this time to take the minotaur into another direction, he still will be not stupid(an average human intelligence, which is rather smart for a minotaur), but he won't have any magical abilities at all! Instead I want to play on the natural cunning part, my minotaur will be the practical engineer type.He will not understand all the fancy theories and numbers, but give him a few sticks and he will build you a simple lever, throw a rope in there and he might be able to build a simple catapult.Of course he will still be a tank and a very good fighter(he is a minotaur) :)


Nice. I'm still leaning towards a kinda brawny, barbarian style Centaur girl, so that could be a fun combo. I would have probably done a gnoll, except my rules about "No animal people unless firmly ensconced in myth" killed that for me- it wouldn't be fair if I just broke my own rules.

Hey Primal,I would actually like to start working on my character, I just need to understand what kind of details this CS needs to have,are we playing D&D style, "Pathfinder" style.. Basically what besides name, description and short biography I need to enter into the CS?(maybe you would like to write down a template)


Like I said earlier, I'm making the OOC tonight. I don't have the time to while I'm at work. It's not going to be a D&D style stat-sheet though, so don't worry about numbers.

Hey! Too late for me to join?


Not at all, my hexahedral friend! What kind of character did you have in mind?
Sorry that the OOC isn't up yet, I'm going to try to get it on tonight. Would have done it yesterday, but I was running on three hours of sleep and got home from work at midnight after starting work at 8AM, so I was just dog tired.

Slept like the dead for like 12 hours last night though, so I'll do what I can to get it going tonight.

Hamster bro, since you're the first one to have a solid region defined for your creatures, I think it would be best if we expanded outwards from there. We're not going to start in that city, but as far as defining where our characters are from, it should be described in relation to the map you have there.

WELP, I'm interested. I wanted to a do a human rangery-wizardy type fella, with a golem as his muscles. A brains brawn combo? No? Yes? Maybe? Interesting? I would play the golem as having acquired some level of sentience due to magic or longevity of being alive. Probably animimalistic or child like in nature to keep it as loyal brawn to the other character's wit. Most likely magically bound to prevent deception, or playing off the low intelligence. Main Ranger guy would be capable of fighting his way out of a paper bag, but relies on his pal to do the dirty work and such. So, okay, or no?


Wouldn't really work with the startup I have planned, and I don't want people playing doubles at this point. Possibly later, but no promises. If you want to play a golem-like character, that's fine, and I'd advise looking up the Warforged from the Eberron setting of D&D for an example of a well done and well balanced version of the "living golem" archetype. Not saying that you need to play as a warforged to be a living golem, but look at them for a rough idea of a good power level and such. If you want to be a mage-created golem where the enchantments have, for lack of a better word, fermented over time and given rise to some degree of self awareness, that's fine too.
Seems to me like there's a good chance the humans would be offended that the Dragon's idea of punishment would be turning the dragon into a human- acting like simply being a human is somehow lesser than a dragon and thus punishment.

See, this is a well-designed race that I would accept. It's not just "humanoid version of moles", it's a full in-depth explanation of why they are the way they are, and it does source material from a few real-world analogues.

I'm okay with animalistic species on this level, because I get the whole convergent evolution point, it's valid. A big plus with this though is that it doesn't feel like you set out to make mole anthros- it feels like you set out to make a subterranean species and looked at how real-world creatures adapted to such a habitat.

I feel your pain dead. DREAMS CRUSHED. HOPE RIPPED OUT OF THE SKY AND THROWN IN THE TRASH AND LIT ON FIRE.Primal, I remember you saying something in reference to Vampires/Werewolves. If someone were to make a character that was acceptable, and would work, you would accept it instead of throwing it out because it is a vampire/werewolf. SOooo, can you apply the same to "humanoid versions of ___" races, as long as they aren't just a humanoid version of an animal with traits like the animal?


I'm actually no longer offering that option to people wanting to play vampires / werewolves, so I'm not going to be extending it to humanoid versions of ______ either. Sorry.

No room for discussion? Didn't have plans for him to be much more powerful than the average were-beast.


No interest in were-beasts being in this in general.
