Shakugan no Shana -Fragments of Crimson- [On Hiatus]

Coming up with titles that aren't massive cringe-fests is surprisingly difficult. Probably should've chosen a better base, but eh, I've written this much now. Might as well follow through.

Shakugan no Shana -Fragments of Crimson- [On Hiatus]

Time to make a character and stuff.

Shakugan no Shana - Fragments of Crimson

I'd be interested in this, too. Always had a soft spot for Shakugan.

Four Crystals Academy - Final Fantasy Interest Check

OOC will be up within 24 hours.

Four Crystals Academy - Final Fantasy Interest Check

The setting is inspired more by the first six games, and would contain the usual FF staples. As for races, humans and moogles are definitely in, but I'm still undecided on allowing every race to feature in a Fantasy game. There'd probably be an odd clash to let in Elves, Bangaa and Burmecians in, but we can leave that to a group vote.

Four Crystals Academy - Final Fantasy Interest Check

Righty-ho, so here's some idea of what to expect.

• Job classes... kind of. You might officially be a Blue Mage or a Thief, but no one said you had to conform strictly to their usual depictions. Maybe you're a Blue Mage that's too weak to learn any worthwhile abilities? Perhaps your method of thievery involves informing your target of the intended time of robbery. Or your Black Mage is a subtle Black Mage expy.
• Assignments. And not just the boring written stuff. Students who feel up to the task can take part in hunting various monsters for rewards. Nothing like field experience to fuel your studies! And to the owner of Carrot the Malboro, keep the damn thing on a leash, the rewards are starting to diminish with the amount of students that thing breathed on.
• Wacky Hijinks and stuff. Expect highly-mismatched parties, overblown drama about the struggles of learning how to sword things, and deep, rich backstory on those four crystals that I'm sure will come into play eventually. Perhaps. Probably not.
• Though if people want something resembling a grander plot, we can certainly work on that. For now, let's focus on establishing ourselves and all that fun stuff.

OOC should be up soonish. Any questions/suggestions?

Four Crystals Academy - Final Fantasy Interest Check

Happy to see the interest so far. I'll put up a few more details tomorrow.

Four Crystals Academy - Final Fantasy Interest Check

Biggs was here, Wedge is a loser.

So, an idea I had for a Final Fantasy-style RP, set in an overly-massive academy. Said academy being the best place to learn how to become a white mage, monk, thief, pretty much every job class Final Fantasy's known for. It's not exactly going to be plot-heavy, and focus more on character interaction and silliness. We can work more on certain details in the OOC, but for now, think less 'White Mage knows Cure', and more... 'White Mage knows Cure, but is much better at pounding flans with a massive hammer'.

I'm looking to make this pretty free-form, and a mix of slice-of-life, action and comedy. The setting would be more akin to I-VI. So less gunblades, and more... normal swords that occasionally inflict elemental damage, I suppose. I can provide more details as necessary, if one has any questions.

So, uh... yeah. Final Fantasy.

An Ideal World - Bleach

Yay, thank you for your responses Roxas! Any other questions you want to pose? It's nice to add them to the thread for additional discussion! :)

@yoshua171

I suppose... what kind of limits would be imposed on abilities? I would assume anything that takes direct control from someone is rightfully off-limits, but anything else? My main Bleach idea involves mimicking others' abilities and such.

An Ideal World - Bleach

I'm certainly still interested in a Bleach RP. Might as well throw my two pence in.

Q: Would people like to be able to create unique histories and their own lore (royal families, factions, races) at some point in the RP?

Royal families, sure. Races, not so much - Bleach already has six trillion different things that haven't been utilised much, so there's plenty of things to play as.

Q: Would people like to have the chance to lead their own Arcs later in the RP?

It's certainly nice to have the option.

Q: As Bleach is a verse centered around conflict between factions and inviduals, it stands to reason that an RP based on it will also be as such. The question is, what races do people prefer to be playable? Shinigami, Arrancar, Quincy, Spiritually Aware Humans, etc etc.

While I don't have a problem with any particular race, the sheer number of potential races can make organising things incredibly difficult. I suppose if there was a large playerbase, we could get away with it, otherwise it might be best to limit things a little.

Q: Would people prefer the story's villain faction to be playable, or ought they be controlled by the GMs entirely--or is a middle ground best?

I wouldn't mind either way, really.

Q: Should there be a limit to how many characters a player can make?

Depending on how things go, one per faction could be a good choice, if only for variety.

Q: ????
