The Blue Moon Tavern: A High Fantasy RP

[c3p-0h]

You could at least settle it in the PMs tho.

@c3p-0h

You're right, sorry. I should have thought of that.

[La Inquisidora]

And no, the rest of your post wasn't for everyone it was for the GM.

@Guilty Spark

Uh . . . Did this dude really just say that the part about only the GM answering the question was for the GM? So, I told the GM not to answer the questions I directed to them? Forget about respecting a fellow fan. Fan or not, they don't deserve my respect when they don't even read my posts.

[Guilty Spark]

Ugh, this is all my fault... :/

@ScarlettWaters16

Don't worry, it's not. Even if La Inquisidora and myself didn't start this at some point, the issue would have likely simmered beneath the surface of our interactions.

[Sessamaru]

@Sessamaru, I have a couple of questions. No one but the GM/creator of the RP should answer. Note that I am a tentatively-interested-but-might-be-very-interested-depending-on-these-answers party. 1) Since I have a fantasy world IP, I'm wondering if you would mind me dipping in some of my own stuff like lore. I'm big on world building, and I tend to carry this knack of mine to RPs I get involved in. 2) Do we get a picture of the tavern? 3) How do you feel about more than one character? I have a few I want to try out. They'd all be so wonderful for this RP. I can't choose just one! 4) Are you taking up one of the would-be players' offer to make maps? 5) Would you mind standing-by for more questions as they come to me?

@La Inquisidora

1) You may, but this would have to be between you and I via PM. 2) Yes. But it may take me a bit to get it up. 3) I'm only allowing ONE CHARACTER per person. I dislike the idea of having people having more than one in this kind of RP due to the catastrophic events that would cause this RP to undergo entropy. 4) I might... this may end up being something done through PM, as well as with a discussion involving lore. However, this will be up to you, if you're still interested in assisting me. 5) Of course! I do not mind answering questions. Also! Everyone who is thinking @Guilty Spark is trying to take over-- S/he is not. I have asked for his/her assistance with questions during my times of absence and in the midst of my own work on the RP. I did not expect this much attention in the beginning, but s/he was so helpful with giving minor advice and having a firm grasp of my intentions that I decided the help would be appreciated. So! If I'm not here to answer questions, whether I'm at work, asleep, or working on the RP, Guilty Spark will do so in my stead. Thank you for your cooperation.

@Sessamaru

1) I'll send some shortly. Be on the lookout for a PM. 2) Okay. I await it! 3) So you're saying multiple characters per person would cause the RP to descend into a state of disorder. I had an idea for a sort of non-player character. See, I actually read the original post in full because it helps to actually pay attention, and I noticed you saying to an interested party that the tavern is a like a hub, and serves as a restore point and CNN (news network). Since more than one player character is an no-go, I was wondering if you would be okay with a NPC that's a news person, since the tavern is about, you know, news. I'll be interested no matter what so let that be known. 4) I can offer lore, sure, but I'm not the one who offered the map. Mr Forscythe did. I believe that is their name. They have a picture of a coffee cup as an avatar. 5) Good!

@La Inquisidora

1) Alrighty, then ^^ 2) Good :D 3) Well, the news and such is something I already have a good grasp of. I have NPCs for it, as well as a couple of nifty toys I've been dying to play with. 4) Ah, alright. I'll discuss it with them. Thank you. (Sorry, I haven't had the time to go back to check; just got off work, so I'm a bit exhausted) 5) :P

I think I'd rather deal with Sessamaru and casual-level judgement, rather than advanced-level judgement where everything is taken as literally, denotatively as possible. When I think of a the relationship between dog and man, I don't think, "Oh well the dog wants food, water, and shelter and the man wants something to keep guard and help hunt," I think the more connotative meaning- "Man's best friend." The same relationship goes between giant and horse- giants are great big men, making a regular man look like a dwarf, and horses are more suited to their size than dogs- because most dogs would be smaller their their arms. Go look at your doorway- yes, the one in the room you're sitting in. Imagine a person tall enough to bump their chin into the bottom of the doorframe. Now imagine them only being able to enter by ducking their head and moving sideways because of muscle mass. Now, imagine them so heavy that the floors creaks painfully every time they step. When they get on the bed of your pickup, it doesn't drop slightly- it drops to nearly halfway, and the man's feet are large enough to have a big toe fit into your big cup you're drinking from. The man's biggest finger is the width of three spacebar keys, the smallest, two and a half. His scythe has a shaft that's wider than your forearm, and a blade longer than a longsword- and he wields it as you would a somewhat heavy nerf gun. Now imagine that man getting on a horse. Do you really think that horse would be wide enough to keep him on? And then, would the horse be strong enough to be able to walk with him there? Really, their footsteps would be up to two or three times farther than yours- every step you take, fast as you are, they gain because they have longer strides. Fierce and proud, not caring if their bulk gets them laughed at or feared. They'll fight amongst themselves and then they'll turn on outsiders, and drive them from their lands as a single unified force, then turn and fight once more. But since that is needing to have everything explained so thoroughly, so much like an advanced roleplay, I am going to pull it all back, and make a new character, in which I will explain everything to begin with as if it were an advanced roleplay. I find the kind of criticism- harsh, skeptical, or otherwise- that automatically assumes something and then continues on as if that were my entire meaning rather aggravating, especially having been banned from two websites because people wouldn't stop doing it to me, and I could do naught but slowly get angrier and angrier, to the point where it is my fault. So before your hackles raise and you start hissing in defense, I will remove Declan Horseman, since the concept I am trying to work with requires such complete and thorough detail, and go with something more cliche, because at least with cliche, one is more likely to understand what you're going with! I DO get this ruffled with this kind of thing. I just want to roleplay, and I think my app was pretty good. I didn't think that it would need a direct pointer saying that he is far too heavy to ride and that he may raise them as another may raise their purebreed dogs or breed certain types of dogs for different things. After all, the land of men brought great wealth from having a great stock of horses- beautiful, purebred, intelligent horses are quite looked-after by wealthier individuals, and mixed breeds could be used for different sport. In addition, armies might need lots of warhorses, and people will always need horses to pull a plow or cart. I didn't think it'd be so not-obvious that I'd need to actually say it- but there it is! Everything you need to know in a great wall of text! I thought this was to be casual, but nay. Agh! And if you are offended, this is my stress- I've been sick and my teachers at school are being stupid with their homework and crap taht I've missed. That, and personal/family issues

[WilsonTurner]

Nevermind making a new character sheet, there is looking to be too many people joining this roleplay and I dislike roleplaying where there are many others that I am not familiar with.

@WilsonTurner

It is casual, I was just being a real tool. I jumped to conclusions about what you meant and got defensive, so I'm sorry. Please don't leave this on my accord, it was a misunderstanding that I created and doesn't reflect on Sessamaru's intentions or their RP. I'm not the GM, and Declan Horseman was perfectly fine.

@WilsonTurner

Whoa, whoa! I get that you're stressed and everything, but don't take this personally. Guilty Spark was just trying to help to make sure everything runs smoothly while I was busy with life. You're right, this is casual (and honestly, I was contemplating about making this an Advanced RP), but I think somewhere along the line, something got misconstrued. Send me a PM and I'll help you out with your character and everything, as well as help alleviate the level of stress that you have. I do apologize that things got so out of hand.

@WilsonTurner

@WilsonTurner Send me the CS you wanted to use earlier. And don't worry about the "too many" people part; this was intentional. It is healthy to be shown newer things as it helps expand your mind and introduces you to new ideas and new people.

Hey @Sessamaru have many apps you have right now?

@Pie Flavor

Hrm?

[Pie Flavor]

>o< Rephrase!~ How many people are interested... As in character sheets/applications, cause im not sure how many are actually joining and those who are not. Also whats the limit on the players in this roleplay?

@Pie Flavor

Ah... I don't really have a limit and I'm unsure of how many are currently in it. I was going to do a head count when I eventually get the RP up. But if you're interested, feel free to post.

If I remember correctly, we're short on male characters. Though you don't HAVE to, I think that's the only thing I would ask for. But, it's up to you if you want to be a male or female ^^

[Gentlemanvaultboy]

Name: Drubbins Race: Ogre Gender: Male Age: 56 Occupation: As close to a professional henchmen as anyone is ever likely to get. Personality/Interests Drubbins is what would politely be called "simple." This is actually quite intelligent for an ogre as he's figured out that not krumpin' every last living thing he sees to eat there flesh and tender marrow is the best way to get ahead in the world. He's generally got no will of his own, willing to follow the orders of whomever he deems to be "Da Boss" (normally whomever is currently feeding him) no matter what those orders may be. He figures this is the best way to live because he, bein' not so smart n'all, will always make wrong decisions. This blind faith makes him steadfast, loyal, and very very gullible when it comes to his boss and anyone the boss puts in charge of him. When he's not doing something for the boss he enjoys the typical ogre activities of eatin' and drinkin', and the not so typical ogre activity of thinkin'. He's actually quite the philosopher for an ogre, and sits thinkin' and listenin' to the smart people talk in the hopes of one day becoming smart himself. Details [i]Body build: Thick. Arms and legs like tree trunks, with arms so long they drag along the ground. Fat with muscle. Hair: None. Hair color: None. He has no hair, that's trolls. Skin color: Mottled grey Eye/Iris color: Red Height/Weight: 8ft tall/Heavy Notable Features: Pronounced underbite, sharp jagged teeth visible covering his upper lip. Long, sharp, black nails on his fingers and toes. Body is covered in badly healed scars and he has a hatched head embedded in his skull. Clothing Description A large ragged kilt held on by a leather strap that goes over his shoulder. Equipment Black iron wristbands on both arms. Weapon(s) Generally the heaviest thing around he can pick up. Powers Weirdly lucky. Abilities Super strength, Super endurance, thick leathery hide that can shrug off most normal human blows. Talents Just throwing things. He's gotten really really good at throwing things over the years, he's got excellent aim. Magic None History
