@Crowvette Look in the Hints & Tips hider, muh friend. You can have as few, or as many, things in your "lists" (be it quiriks, equipment or spells) as you'd like. Well, okay, if you go over 10 items then I may have to ask you to dial it back. Bur, yes, you can have many novice-level spells if you want. Because they're low-level spells. It'd be a different story if you wanted to start with like, 5+ Expert Level spells, that might not be so okay - you're all supposed to be relatively young still, after all. And yes, the spells need to more "specifi" and less "versatile" in terms of what they do.
As for a carpenter. Don't worry, if nobody makes one, we can always get one of those stinky NPCs to fill that role. Or you guys could just manage by living in mud huts with straw roofs and no furniture. I don't judge.
Yeah, you'd better run, skank! Putting your hands all over my wooh-meng! I'd scratch your eyes out! D<
But seriously, sad to see you go. I hope things go well in your self-GM'd RP though, and we can all just agree that Ryu's taking an extended nap in her apartment, for now.
@CitrusArms No need to rush. I know that things're busy in all manenr of work at this time of year. Trust me, I work in retail. It's a nightmare this time of year. T-T
I just wanted to know if you had a CS or even an idea and was still wanting to join. And now that we know, we'll wait for you to finish up your sheet. :)
That goes for the rest of you guys who haven't posted yours yet too, of course. Just let us know if you're still interested in joining up.
Great. All of 'em at once, eh? Of course. Why'd I expect anything different.
Actually, we seem to be missing a few... @Crowvette, @CitrusArms, @BunniesOfDoom. You guys still here for this? I know Crow had a CS (seemingly?) ready and done in the Interest Check. I'm not sure if anyone else in the Interest Check is missing though... Should probably go back and double-check.
Anyway, since you all slapped down your sheets at once, I'll wait until we hear back from the lads and lasses who haven't posted theirs yet. If they need time to finish their characters, we'll wait. If they decided not to try and apply, we'll move forward with selection.
@LupusIntus Oh well, look who accidentally didn't read the BIG TEXT at the top of the Character Tab...
*slowly moves towards while holding a canadian-make hockey stick and smiling ominously*
Locationn: Umbra Rose Condos, Bldg #1, Miyuki & Yumeiko's apartment, Miyuki's room -> Bldg #1 Cafeteria Time of Day: Late Afternoon Relevant Cast:@CitrusArms Yumeiko, Everyone in Building #1 Cafeteria. "Hey now~!" Miyuki laughed as the smaller fox blowed on her face. "That tickles, you little vixen. Trying to sedice me, are we? Well, take this!"
With fingers of inhuman dexterity (because she issn't human), Miyuki's fingers slid down to Yumeiko's side and began to mercilessly tickle the other girl in retribution for her attempts at being a sultry minx. That was Miyuki's role, after all!
However, the fun times were soon interupted by a sudden reminder of reality's cruelties.
RrRrrrRRRRrRrrroorrwrrwrgrrrrl~!
It appeared that a certain part of Miyuki was just not having any of this nonsense and would no longer remain ignored. The black-haired lady flopped over to one side on the bed, in an epically drama queen-like fainting move. Worthy of an Oscar, really. With a hand on her forehead and a face that would make anyone kneel down and offer her the world on a silver platter, if only she would smile again, the fox sighed melancholically.
"Alas, this cruel fate of mine... Here I wither, with not but love to fill my stomach~" She sighed again, though this time less exaggeratedly and dramatic, and more just out of annoyance. Then, she sat back up on her keister, scooched on next to Yumeiko, grabbed the other fox by the arm and said, with eyes staring into her fellow fox's.
"No, but really. I need food. Let's go."
With a speed usually not seen in the elder fox, she was on her feet, and Yumeiko was yanked along - whether the golden haired fox liked it or not. Arms locked, tails entwined, taking a whiff of her favorite's shampoo'd hair, and they were off! Out of the room, through the hallway of their apartment and to the door. The door, leading out into the compex. The complex where blooduscking midgets and snarling wolf-amazonesses dwelled. Ye gods! What terrors this brave woman of culture would dare feace in order to find sustenance!
A short walk down the stairs later...
Late to the party, but fashinably so, the two japanese monsters entered the den of eatings. There was a sizable gathering of folks here already - some of who weren't even residents of building 1, althoguh Miyuki had no such knowledge - after all, she hardly knew any of the neighbours. Speaking of neighbours, there was the bug-man from this morning, the one who'd spoken with the cute horse-girl. The dark fox hadn't had a chance to speak with him before he'd retired.
And there... Was the snarling savage who'd beaten her neck-biting assailant. Yup. That sure was her. Looking like she'd done nothing to nobody and chatting away happily as if her paws (hands?) weren't used just hours ago to rip someone a new orifice. Miyuki wrinkled her brow at the sight of the crazy-pants wolf-woman. Hopefully, she'd not notice the pair.
There were some others too... Like a middle-easter-looking man.. Who... Smelled.... AWFUL! What was that!? How was that?! What in the seven hells and nine heavens could possibly cause something, someone, to smell this horrid? This wasn't just bad, this was a stench that transcended all logic and rationale! It was like a tyre-fire had had a baby with a bloated rotten corpse, while bathing in swamp water and eating raw sewage - and that still wasn't an apt or close enough description to whatever pungent aroma this individual was giving off. In a rare moment of utter lack of politeness, and spurred by self-preservation, Miyuki raised her free hand to coveer her mouth and nose as the duo passed by the stinking source of unbearable odors. This was someone she wanted nothing to do with, that's for sure! Not unless he took a bath! A really long, thorough bath. In vineager.
Next up on the list wa-- Oh great...! It was her. The offender. The villain. The one who had dare to blemish the impeccable skin of this delicate and frail maiden, pure as snow and innocent like the lamb. She was sitting at a table, facing... An old man... Had... Had she seen him before? She couldn't reclal. He looked a bit familiar... But then again, all old men looked the same, more or less. They seemed to be engaged in some sort of game... It looked simialr to shogi, though with more elaborate pieces to move. Was it some kind of westernized version of the board game? No, that wasn't important! The important thing was that the neck-biting shrew was here! In iher dining hall! Nonchalantly playing games of all things! The nerve of this wench! How dare she!?
Miyuki growled slightly in a very low tone, while briefly narrowing her eyes at the culprit in question. But 'twas but for a moment. She turned ehr head instead to Yumeiko, who was a far more lovely and pleasant sight to look at anyway.
"So, dearest one. What would you like to eat tonight? I hear the chef here is quite skilled, allegedly~" Some of Miyuki's tails began to wag slightly, possibly intrigued and looking forward to tasting actual cooking that wasn't just, y'know, breakfast.
... However, there seemed to be some kind of ruckus over at the kitchen. A pig-looking fellow was waving his arms, and kitchen wares, around in a dangeorus fashion while seemingly scolding a much larger, brutish, and thick-looking sort of person. The fox wasn't familiar with either of these two either. Hopefully, nothing bad had happened to the kitchen or the food there-within. After all, the line was almost all but gone at this point, so if they couldn't get any food...!
... Heads would roll...
Miyuki fooled around with Yumeiko for a bit in her room. Then realized she was too hungry to ignore it.
The pair left their apartment and went to the Building 1 cafeteria.
Miyuki took stock of the people present, and judged them internally.
She also noticed there was some kind of commotion at the kitchen.
I'm-a post a bit later today. Got permsision form MY WIFE to drag her along to the cafeteria. Incoming foxy ladies to spice up this snooze-fest of a dinner rush.

1. The Nameless Village: The Village is located in a small, grassy vale, with thin trees and sparse bushes around it. The climate is temperate and the area doesn't seem to have any monsters, apart from the rare slime. The buildings are, at this point, mostly falling apart, except for two structures near the center of the hamlet. There's also a well and a weird star-shaped statue at the heart of the town too. The roads are simple dirt patsh that've mostly begun to become overgrown by invading grass once more. The settlement is located about a 30 minute walk from all of the surrounding areas, give or take.
Village NPCs
Daryl Brax: Daryl is a fairly tall and well-built human male, with brown hair and eyes. He dresses simply, and is most often seen wearing a dark apron. He's a friendly and jovial man, and loves his wife very dearly. He's a carpenter of several years worth experience.
Daryl's speech is Beige.
Sherly Brax: Sheryl is the wife of Daryl. She's got vivid red hair and equally red eyes, but like her husband dresses fairly simply. She can be a bit tough on her husband and often scold him for his impulsive or not-very-well-thought-through plans, but she does love him a great deal. She's a seamstress by trade and is quite handy with needle and thread.
Sheryl's speech is Light Pink.
Milni's a fairly young dwarf. She makes a living as a hunter and trapper, along with doing some skinning and leatherworking. She's usually quiet and often seems lost in thought, but a nice enough girl otherwise. She's very skilled with her crossbow and a good tracker, of both beast and man. The horns she wears on her head are from some critter shee hunted - don't worry, they're not attached to her head.
Milni's speech is Gold.
victor Sayber: Victor is an elderly human, with light grey hair and dull blue eyes. Despite his age he still has a seemingly strong and fit physique. He also seems to come from money, as he dresses in fairly fine garments. He used to run a successful business as a merchant back in the day, but has since retired. He's a sharp old coot with a quick wit, not one to let his age get the better of him. While he tries to be a good guardian for his granchild, he can't help but dote and spoil her sometimes. He's an honest and good-natured man otherwise.
Victor's speech is Silver.
Wilma Sayber: Wilma is the grandchild of Victor. She's got brown hair tied into a pair of braids and brown, almond-shaped eyes. She's very short and very young. As a young child, she can loud, selfish and a general nuisance at times - especially since she eems to come from a well-off family. But on the other hand, she gets easily attached to people who're kind to her and isn't shy about showing her affection and fondness for them. She gets very concerned when people she likes get sick or injured. She has absolutely no worthwhile skills what so ever.
Wilma's speech is Aqua.

Monsters:
Note; The monsters listed in the zones below are not the full, complete roster of creatures you can encounter in each area. Rather, these are just the most common things you're likely to run into - in that region - without specifically searching for a certain creature.
Forest Slimes - They're the same as blue and green plain slimes, but a darker, more leafy green. They're also faster, and they're aggressive, leaping at anyone or any living thing that gets too close. Their bodies burn like nettles or mild acid, and they're sticky like sap.
Goblin - A small, ugly, gnarled green or yellow-skinned creature with long, droopy pointed ears and a lanky frame. They're weak and cowardly and only attack if there's more than one of them. They use extremely primitive tools like sticks, bones or rocks as weapons. They don't speak the commmon tongue and cannot be communicated with.
Kobold - A small, humanoid dog or lizard-like monster. Roughly the size of a goblin, which is roughly the size of an average human child around 10 years old. They're likewise cowardly and primitive like goblins, but a bit better organized and pose a slightly greater threat.
Dire Wolf - A really big wolf, so big it can't be considered a regular animal anymore. They're also solitary, unlike regular wolves who live and work as packs. They're very ferocious, strong and have sharp fangs and claws - but luckily they're an uncommon creature.
Myconid - A humanod mushroom being. They look like a giant mushroom with a pair of small, spindly legs and spindly arms. They mostly show up during the night. While they themselves aren't particularly dangerous, the spores they can spray from their cap-like head can cause a number of unpleasant effects, including blindness, poison, temporary paralysis, sleep and confsuion (though only one effect at a time). Myconids vary in size, and can be as small as a newborn human baby or as big as a fully grown adult dwarf.
Horned Rabbit - A large breed of rabbit that has a unicorn-like horn growing from its forehead. Unlike regular rabbits, they're predatory omnivores and quite territorial - and they don't fear humanoids, often charging them either to impale with their horn, or bite with their sharp teeth. Their meat is tasty and their fur is pretty though, so they're sometimes hunted as wild game. Their horns may have some use too.
Forest Spider - A spider that's the size of a fully grown bulldog. Well, their body is, though they look even bigger on account of their legs. They're predatory giant insects who live in the trees and caves. They can spin webs to catch prey in, have tow sharp front legs that end in dagger-like appendages that they use to cut enemies and food apart with, and have nasty mandibles with a lesser venom in them. They usually hang out in dark places.
Armored Boar - A large boar that doesn't look too different from a regular boar, except both the males and females have tusks. They're also covered in a thick layer of segmented skin-plates, sort of like an armadillo, which acts as 'armor', hence their name. They're usually shy, but will get angry if cornered, surprised or if they have young with them. In terms of size, they're slightly larger than a regular boar, but not by much.
Thunderhawk - A blue-colored bird the size of a regular hawk. What makes them special is that they can generate electricity around themselves via magic, and use it to shoot either a single bolt of lightning in a chosen direction, or discharge a static field around them, to zap enemies and prey. They usually stay away from humanoids, but can sometimes attack if they feel threatened or want to steal food from others.
