Tarantian Age: Age of Giants (Cenozoic Era)

Brace for feedback

I'd like to have a more realistic, historically accurate RP story which would require the participants to have some fairly good knowledge and education about the time period.

I can tell you from personal experience, assigning homework is a deterrent, and the ones that show interest- and I'm sure they will, this is kind of a cool idea- well, don't be surprised if most/all of them just don't do it.

primitive sign language, which isn't very fun or realistic to be honest.

hand gestures to try and aid communicating an idea is still vastly more realistic than anything presented in 10,000 B.C., my guy. I'm not saying pick a lane; mixing realistic and fantastic elements is fine, but this initial presentation doesn't provide enough definition to what is or isn't allowed.

This is a cool idea, but for myself? I'd definitely wait for a proper interest check, with more clearly defined setting/boundaries for character stuff.

Edit:

I generally just let the players govern themselves and see where it goes.

Again, my own experience, on both sides of a GM screen, this is a really bad idea. I'm sure it's possible that this play style can work, I just haven't seen evidence to suggest it can work here, on this site.

Digimon: Let's Kick It Up! (Closed)

It was lunch period when the fog rose. Rick was hanging out on the roof of one the school buildings, at the time. "Huh... That's kind of weird-"

He was cut off by the sound of the door swinging open, it was pushed so hard that it made a 'clang' when it hit the wall! "Well well well, what have we here?" It was bullies; Kazuki, and his minions Manta, Ren, and Toru. "Thought you could hide up here, huh?" Kazuki sneered, "but it looks like you've got nowhere to run!"

Rick took a step back, "H-hey, come on, guys! Can't you just lay off for one lousy day?"

Kazuki got a gleam in his eye, "Oh, suddenly you're a tough guy, think you can tell me what to do?" He began slowly walking toward Rick, with the other three following close behind. One of them rolled up the cuffs on his uniform, another cracked his knuckles (with a big grin on his face), and the last tried to make a show of cracking his neck without using his hands (but he couldn't quite get it, so no cracking sound).

There intended victim tried to maintain the distance, but soon felt the ledge behind him! He looked over his shoulder, and saw only fog. He couldn't keep his voice from shaking, "C-come on, what'd I ever do to you guys?"

one of the minions mocked him, "'what'd I ever do to you guy-ha-hies!'" He even gestured as though he were rubbing tears from his eyes.

"You see, this is your problem, right here, Rick. You've got no guts at all! Maybe if you had more of a spine, you wouldn't need our help to toughen up-"

Just at that moment, Kazuki's phone screen lit up, so bright that the light shone even from in his pocket, and started beeping a tune. "-Wha..? That's not my ringtone!" It started vibrating, and heating up judging by the sudden smoking! "Oh jeez, what's going o-hah-on!?" The minions were dumbstruck, staring slack-jawed as their leader fumbled the cell phone out of his pocket, and tossed it away from himself.

That's when the screen exploded.

A spray of pixels quickly formed into a small green creature, draped in an animal fur, a big stick in one hand, and vaguely egg shaped object in the other. At the same time, a streak of light shot toward Rick, who flinched, only to find a device in his hands. "Uh..." He exchanged to same, confused look with his would-be attackers as the little green man looked up, locking eyes with Rick.

In an instant, it was leaping through the air at him, hollering and hooting like a primate!

That did it; Rick turned, and in one smooth motion, stepped up and launched himself from the ledge! He didn't even think about how high up he was, just as long as he went far enough-

The other building soon came into view, and he caught himself on a lower window ledge! Thank goodness these buildings were built with the same floor plan! If I'm lucky, one of these windows will be open! Two more jumps between the buildings, and he was close enough to safely drop straight to the ground. once there, he was stooped over, panting, when he heard Kazuki calling from the roof, "Hey, Rick? Are you dead? You owe me a phone, if you're not dead!"

Rick stood up straight, and wobbled; probably dizzy and off balance from the most extreme escape he's ever pulled- when someone spoke directly into his ear, in a growly voice-

"Hey pal, What'd ya jump for? Ya late for somethin'?"

Character Sheet

Human CS:

Name: Rick
Age: 13
Gender: Boy/Man
Appearance:

Personality: Rick isn't antisocial, but a loner by choice. He enjoys hiking, and urban exploration, activities where he can test himself and prove that he's capable, even if only to himself. He's often quiet at first, but speaks up more as he get's comfortable with a person.
Skills:
Stamina: Hiking isn't a leisurely stroll through a park; it often goes long distances over variably rough terrain; don't try it if you can't push yourself and make piece with some discomfort...
Parkour:If someone's chasing you, it helps if obstacles don't slow you down like they would your pursuer.
Digi-Egg: Guts (unable to find an image, even though the wikimon says it exists...)
Bio: Rick comes off as a very humble boy. The humility was just an act, however- really, he just didn't want to draw attention to himself. It makes certain peers target him, more.
His self tought "parkour" was a product of a persistent bully situation. He's never told anyone, but there's a "gang" that likes to chase him, and they've taken every chance they could find since he was 9. This is also why he first got into hiking with a school club; "the wilderness" was a place where he knew that his bullies wouldn't find him.
As mentioned, he hasn't told anyone about this- he didn't want to worry his mother(a nurse), and doesn't want his father(a firefighter) to think him a coward. He doesn't want anyone to pity him, and he fears it'll get worse if he tells his teachers. So, he keeps others at arms length,
Other:

@mattmanganonis my character ok, now? Also, should I change his appearance? Because Rick and Aoi at present look really similar

Newly edited! A bit more to the bio, and some details changed such removing the details that assumed Goblimon was already in the picture.
