The Family Business 2

@ReapTheMusic: Pretty sure everyone is gathered in some small town around something called the Heroes Monument. Art of Fun or one of the other heroes should know more.

@NanoDragon: Perfect!

@HylianRose and Vulpes: So, I'm going to move are party forward to the point where we make contact with the Kobolds. Do you guys want the meeting to start out with diplomacy
and then move to fighting or start out fighting then move to diplomacy? Or just one or the other? I'm open to anything, including massacres.

The Family Business 2

That's alright Art of Fun. At least you're here now. Hopefully Dessie, and Cinderella Man will follow shortly.

Also, @NanoDragon: You may want to edit your post slightly as I believe all the heroes were invited to the meeting at the monument. At least I'm pretty sure thats what has been established.

@HylianRose: Can't wait for your next post! Looking forward to seeing what Jonnie thinks about Robin's drying spell which may or may not work.

The Family Business 2

@nanodragon626: You are approved! Feel free to meet up with the other heroes at the heroes monument in whatever town they are in. If you need more information don't be afraid to ask.

@HylianRose: Glad to here that's an option, but I think once ReapTheMusic and NanoDragon start that should even things out perfectly.(Counting Elize the Villain NPC that was once Clock's character of course.)

Also, on that note we are full until further notice.

The Family Business 2

And ya, I only left the heroes and villains that had been posting recently. I figure if any of the others that were approved show back up I can re-add them to the list.

The Family Business 2

Soren DarkStorm

Name: Soren DarkStorm

Concept: Surprisingly Friendly Cyromancer

Role: Villain/Dungeon Keeper

Age: 16

Sex and Orientation: Male and likes the ladies. (Thinks he's a ladies man...)

Appearance: Soren

Personality: Soren is in fact pretty friendly for a villain. When he isn't freezing Heros solid he is often seen smiling and laughing. Easy to talk to and more than
willing to work as a team rather than solo. Is intensely interested in tactics and fortress building he is more than happy to spend his days building the ultimate dungeon.
Dislikes being to warm as he was raised in a cold climate. Also, his personality tends flip whenever his mother is insulted turning him into a heartless killer.

Background: After basically being abandoned by his mother who was an infamous Ice Mage he spent his days studying in the large tower his mother and him called home.
After studying he would often go to visit a near by town and play with other kids his age. Being naturally charming he easily made friends. Now that he knows his
mother is dead he has chosen to follow in her footsteps. For even if she was a cold and distant mother she still deeply cared for him and wanted what was best for him.

Skills: Excels at all types of ice based magic, though specifically in Ice construction. Being able to make anything from swords of ice to massive ice walls. What he
can't do is any fire magic and only the most basic of other normal spells.

Equipment: Basic magic robes, A tome of extremely high level ice magic spells, a medium length dagger with a silver blade, a bag he carries over one shoulder that he
uses to carry his things, and a gauntlet for his right hand and fore arm that his mother had made for him.

Parent: Shiveria DarkStorm the IceWind Cyromancer of the North. A cold, cruel and powerful women. Soren's relationship with her was very distant as she spent the majority
of her time on her work as a villain. However she did always send him money and things from dead heros and villages. Due to this Soren Idolized his mother and hopes
to follow in her footsteps as the greatest Cyromancer of all time.

Inheritance: Soren not only got the Shard from his mother, but with her letter and the Shard he also was given an extremely powerful tool his mother had spent her
entire life creating. The Gauntlet she was able to make out of Cold Steel was then infused with ice magic everyday of her life. Now almost twenty years later it looks
to be made entirely of ice. When Soren wears the gauntlet on his right arm his ice magic becomes much stronger and easier to wield allowing him to use very little magic
to make things such as an ice sword or a small storm of ice shards, where as larger spells are simply faster and easier to cast.

Notes: Carries a large bag of hard candies and often hands them out to others. Also, is often found whistling or humming as he works on his ice constructs.

The Family Business

Yes. Honestly, if we need any of the past posts I figure we can just come back here and read them.

OR

We could start over from scratch, but that seems a bit extreme since we didn't get all that far in this thread.

The Family Business 2

For The Heroes

"Hey, kiddo, it's your Mom. I hope you and Dad are doing good. Remember the stories I told you about fighting warlords and evil sorcerers? Well, if you're getting this letter it means I went and fought one of those warlords and evil sorcerers..."

Your mom (or your dad, I suppose) was a hero! They would go to delve into dungeons and fight monsters, they traveled across the sea to stop evil warlords and their armies, and they found amazing treasures. They'd come home and tell you amazing stories about their adventures, and how one day they'd actually save the whole world. But then you got a letter. They died a hero's death, fighting against the baddest of the bad and defeating them. Unfortunately, the World Heart that supposedly kept order in the world in the Golden Age was scattered before it could be put back together. And to make it even worse, somebody else may have them now. And now they want you to find them. But... One kid can't do this alone, right? There were other heroes that used to adventure with your dad/mom, and their kids are saddled with the same job. Even with your dad/mom's gear, and even some of their powers, you're no hero. But damn it if you aren't going to train your hardest. Every hero starts somewhere, right?

And thus your journey begins. You and your new found companions are left to carry on your parent's legacy as a hero. You maybe be the daughter of a wise sorceress or the son of a righteous paladin, and it's your job to find the World Heart and put it back together... Eventually.

For The Villains

"Hey kiddo, it's your Dad. I know we're not exactly on talking terms, and I'm sorry about that whole thing with your girl friend and the raising her from the dead for my zombie army and everything, but I've got something I need you to do..."

Your dad (or your mom, I suppose) wasn't exactly the best parental figure that you could have. He never had much time to bond with you. No going to the market hand-in-hand to get a wooden sword so you can pretend to be an adventurer like the other kids. No stories of knights saving princesses from dragons. No tucking you into bed at night. He was too busy terrorizing the general populace and conquering kingdoms and raising the dead and summoning demons etcetera, etcetera. But then, you got a letter. As it turns out, they're dead now. And so were their archnemesises... Archnemeses? Archnemesi? You dunno (or maybe you do, you smart cookie you), but you've apparently been entrusted with a shard of the World Heart, some magical MacGuffin that you unfortunately have next to no information about, and their powers and belongings. And your mom/dad expects you to keep the damn thing safe. But you gotta wonder... Where are the other shards? As it turns out, there's a couple of other kids who's parents were pals with your mom/dad, and you've got a plan... You'll build a dungeon. All of you, together, as a team. It'll be a base of operations where you'll all keep the World Heart "safe" and yadda yadda yadda. It's what they would have wanted, and even if they weren't there for you all the time, they were your parent, right?

And thus your journey begins. You and your new found partners-in-evil are left to carry on in your parent's footsteps as a villain. You son of a powerful lich necromancer, or the daughter of a demon lord, and you have to keep the World Heart safe and sound out of the reach of greedy adventurers. That's what your parent would want... Right?

So "Family Business" is about a bunch of teen aged kids living in a high fantasy world filled with monsters and the like that have to get into the family business. Except, in this case, the family business is dungeon keeping and heroism. Teen drama and fantasy shenanigans abound. I'm not expecting Family Business to be super serious, but I don't want pure comedy either. Stay fairly serious with your characters and actions, but it's certainly not a gritty, realistic fantasy world.

The roleplay will begin with the heroes will be beginning their careers as adventurers and the villains will be beginning the construction of their dungeon. Obviously we'll be split into two main groups for this RP, so at the top of every post I'd like for people to mark the top of their posts with --[Hero]-- or --[Villain]--.

The Rules:
Pretty much just the basic stuff. Be respectful, no godmodding, no sexy-times in the thread (keep that in PM!), have fun, all that jazz.

The Heroes!
Angelo Ortega, the Charming and Religious Rouge
Elise "Boa" Sternn, the Twisted Military Hero
Sharon "Sherry" Koshke, the Man-Made Disaster Walking-MIA

Catherine Silver-Tree, Evil brat and wicked witch-MIA

CURRENTLY SEEKING HEROES WITH ANY LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE!

Character Sheet

Name: (Your name, chucklehead.)
Concept: (This is kinda just the general idea. Just a phrase, like "Edgy Swordsman" or "Disturbingly Happy Necromancer". Really all you need is an adjective and a noun, but feel free to do whatever. Just no longer than a short sentence.)
Role: (Hero/Adventurer or Villain/Dungeon Keeper?)
Age: (How many times has the Sun gone around the Earth with you there to see it? You should all be in the 14-18 range)
Sex and Orientation: (What you have... Down there. Also, you into boys, girls, or both? Or is it more complicated that?)
Appearance: (What you look like.)
Personality: (How you act, along with any weird mannerisms or other quirks.))
Background: (I'm not looking for a whole biography, but like... A few sentences at least.)
Skills: (What are you good at? What are you bad at? Can you cast spells, or do backflips? Other crazy stuff you do?)
Equipment: (What kind of gear you have, weapons and armor and the like. Any inherited items you should go into greater detail in the Inheritance section.)
Parent: (Who was your parent? Hero or villain? Dashing rogue or mad sorceress? Valiant knight or demon lord? Wise wizard or ancient lich? Also, how was your relationship?)
Inheritance: (What have you inherited from your parent? A magic sword? An eldritch tome? An army of imps? Heat Vision? Sharks with frickin' laser beams on their heads (don't actually put that)?)
Notes: (Anything else about your character?)

Anyway, I know it's not pretty, but at least it works. Also, please bring your old character sheets over from the original family business thread just so they will be here.
Also, if you don't see your name listed among the heroes or villains don't panic! Just post your CS here and tell me your name isn't up there. I'll be sure to update it as this happens. Also, if you have any questions feel free to PM me or just ask me here. I'll try to answer them.

GM=SuperNinjaMagi.(You can call me Ninja.)
CO-GM over heroes=(One you guys. Probably Jangel13 if they still want it.)
CO-GM over villains=(Another one of you guys. Did you still want this Khavali?)

The Family Business

Also, quick side note. I assume I'll just copy Clock's first post and tweak it so once I have the thread up if you guys could move your CS's there that would be awesome.
And I assume we will just continue from where we are at in the RP rather than start over from scratch as that would be annoying, even if we haven't made it very far...

Another note, if you guys don't mind I'll take over Clock's old character Elize and use her as a Villain NPC.

(Sorry for the double post. It reposted the above post so I just added new stuff I want to say to this one...)

EDIT: The Family Business 2
This is our new thread. Couldn't think of what else to call it. The first post is still a work in progress.

The Family Business

Well, after a quick count it seems like I got about five-ish votes to be the new GM and unless I am mistaken that is more than half of our active RPers.
So, without further delay I now pronounce myself GM.
*Party horn noises*
Anyway, if anyone wishes to challenge this feel free to do so. I don't mind doing a re-count or some such.

Also, on that note I'll go ahead and start working on making a new thread for The Family Business and then post a link back here.

And thanks for the votes people. ^.^ b

The Family Business

Thanks for the vote Khavali. And I agree about moving this once we all agree on a GM.
Also, I messaged Clockface already asking him to send me any and all information he haf planned to use in this RP and I have yet to hear from him. :/
Anyway, if I don't hear from him soon or if I get the GM position I'd be more than happy to hear some ideas about what you guys think these shards are and where the story should head.
