[quote=@Crusader Lord] [@FunnyGuy][@princess] Just a curious passerby wanting to ask some questions and toss around some ideas to get an idea of things here, if that is ok. :D 1) What's the current arc going on in the RP? 2) And...ah...what idea among the below might seem more appealing than the others? Or, er, the most workable? Some of these are probably cheesy or have some trope, but aren't meant to be memes as much as concepts I wanted to ask about to get an idea of things here: a) A pureblood vampire who has been around for a good and long time, but until recently has been trying to keep themselves out of the action for the time being through negotiation or otherwise. Ultimately gets wrapped up with some people somehow (like a love interest or someone from another faction they could accidentally/otherwise befriend and such) and get pulled into things? In essence, a loner who basically comes out of the loner shell going into the RP due to circumstances and becomes an active part (even if as part of a friend group or such they are in). Or basically "former ancient vampire loner who decided to be obtuse and adapt to modern day, wanted to live a simple life but instead ultimately gets pulled back into old feud and such by new people they've befriended or fallen for or the like". b) Something that amounts to "ancient Mesopotamian priestess, some ancient member of a witch bloodline, was kept in a long magical stasis in some old stone coffin or sarcophagus or such...and gets woken up in modern day somehow after the coffin was dug up and taken to the USA by some means". She then proceeds to get caught up in whatever is going on with one side or another. Or essentially "A Witch Out Of Time gets pulled into mess in the modern day" to sum it up even more simply. c) Person turned into or born a vampire in far back ancient times, only for their super overprotective sire/parents to basically die and them be left in the care of a vampiric servant/caretaker. Caretaker and those they have turned in turn over the time period have been keeping the vampire fed over the centuries or two millennia or whatever it would be, before ultimately the latest one moving to the USA and dying in some local conflict. Their charge, who was to be kept isolated as their parents and caretakers were overprotective, basically emerges from a very long time of isolation and being basically kept a prisoner in a stone coffin or such to "keep them out of harm". Thus the old "is rather old but also very very new to things" vampire emerges into the world and goes about on their own with a relatively innocent perspective. d) An individual who was born a witch, and kind of gets found out as one by others, but also has to deal with the fact that their are beginning to see a stream of memories and such over time that are not their own. Magical knowledge they shouldn't have, but on occasion seeps in. Turns out they are the product of their bloodline ancestor's somewhat messed up attempt at reincarnation, using a magic ritual that cost them their life very very long ago to basically reincarnate in every other magically-inclined member of their bloodline going onwards. So now said new witch is having to deal with being a total newbie, being in the middle of the conflict stuff in some manner or another, and then the whole "I want to find a way to not lose my mind and self to this reincarnation spell cause oh hell that would be bad". Doesn't make them super powerful overall or in general, they are new despite an odd stream of the old memories and such beginning to funnel in bit by bit here and there (etc), and it is a struggle they'd have to deal with (not just some 'super boon' with no consequences, they have to fight to retain their self and find a way to keep it in the end). 3) How are you all doing this fine day? I hope well. [s]Forgot my third question so put this one here instead. (TwT)[/s] [/quote] 1. We are currently on the 2nd day within the RP and I can't really say there's an actual arc. This RP is somewhat of a sandbox, so a lot of the story os what you make of it. Most characters are mostly gray and have more selfish motivations like revenge, cash, and power. 2. I personally like options B and D. D more so. 3. Doing pretty good. I hope you're still interested. There is also a link to our discord channel on the first page if you want a better look at the factions, locations, and even some of the NPC. You can also chat up the other RPer to figure out how to create interesting run ins and connections.
