Bonjour! C'est Raevyn~ (Don't worry, I speak English)

Welcome to RPG, Raevyn. I hope you find yourself in many marvellous roleplays!

Also, Pandora Hearts is great.

Fire Emblem: Shards of Chaos

I sincerely hope not. I’ll admit I am feeling a little less excitement towards this but not enough to want to end it or give up on it. I’ve also been decently busy but not enough to warrant such absence. I made that thread during the time you hadn’t replied for a little while and neither had the two other people I was RPing with (one for near a week and the other three days). Having nothing really to do I went in search of a couple of partners. I will mention though that I’m not replying anymore often to them than I am to you. However, I should be. I’m sorry for being so absent and not really doing much. I realize I should have been a lot quicker to the replying. I did read things as they were added. I would very much like to continue this.

I read Beatrice’s (WIP) character sheet. I really like the way she is coming along and I very much like the picture you used. If you would like I can start working on an intro IC post. I would just follow the earlier outlines I wrote and we could have some characters go without a sheet or have their sheet developed whenever the time is fitting. I sincerely hope we can salvage this. Once again I apologize.

I have sent you a message.

Role Play Search [advanced]

Hello. I’m Ainmire. How do you do? After browsing through much of the 1x1 section and seeing threads for a lot of potential partners I’ve come to the conclusion that I am either far too particular or mildly blind. I wouldn’t rule the possibility of both out just yet, either. But basically I could very much use a couple more RPs, 1x1’s preferred. So without further ado I present you with a very pretentious sounding set of rules.

• I write at advanced and I would prefer you do to. I’m not asking you to write perfectly, but the better your posts the more inspiration and motivation I’ll have to reply. Frequent mistakes, on the other hand, cause me to lose interest quite quickly. With regards to the lengths of my posts I have no issue writing around three paragraphs per character per reply. I can often write a good deal more (especially if you’re writing more) but there may also be a time or two when I write less.



• I don’t write sex. It can happen, characters can talk about it, but I’m not going to write it. Otherwise I don’t have much for limits in regard to "graphic" things. Violence is fine. Language is fine. Mature themes. And so on. If you have limits or questions just ask.



• I prefer to play at least two characters within a single RP. I wouldn’t mind upping that a bit either. However, as far as main every-post characters go I’d rather not exceed six. In addition to these I will likely play a variety of NPCs and side characters. Finally, I’m not too keen on sharing NPCs.



• Romance is fine within the story but I’d rather not have it be the story. On that note, for those who care, I do play characters of all genders and orientations with little preference. The main exception to this would be if we’re not doubling and playing a heterosexual relationship—I’d rather play the male. I also don’t mind a RP with non-romantic interactions of various kinds. Basically if it’s to your tastes I don’t mind including it but if it’s not to your taste I don’t mind excluding it.



• If there is anything else of exceptional importance which I have not yet mentioned then feel free to ask me whatever question you might have.

Interests
Disclaimer: I don’t much like playing things set in the modern time and would much prefer the recent past, the 1990s or early 2000s, for example.

Fantasy – Including most of its subgenres (i.e. Modern Fantasy, Low Fantasy). Right now a small group of adventurers in a classic sword-n-sorcery type of world sounds like it could be fun. Something with some action, adventure, and a generally light-hearted vibe sounds quite appealing in general. But if pleasant isn’t doing it for you we can just go with hardened Orc warriors who have lost their entire clan to the hate of humans and are now seeking revenge on by viciously slaughtering everyone. Having Wizards in space also sounds fun. Of course you can always suggest something if none of this appeals.

Historical – European, Victorian England, Gaelic, Viking, Robin Hood, China, Japan (I’m most familiar with Sengoku/Meiji), Ancient Rome, 1920s/1930s America, Actual Medieval, Ancient Egypt (pick a time period), etc. If you have suggestions make them. I’m not against doing my research for something that could be a lot of fun.

Other – (I’m not always the best at placing genres, so this is for everything else/blending) Serial Killers (not of the killer x victim variety), Arthurian Legend, Norse Mythology-based, Greek Myth-based, something gritty and modern (perhaps with gangs?), Tolkien-esque, and Fire Emblem. I do not doubt there are other things which I would be quite interested in doing, so suggest away.

Thank you for your time and have a marvellous day! ^^

Fire Emblem: Shards of Chaos

After an unintentional break of sorts, which I apologize for, I’m ready to get this moving again. So I should be on and replying more for the next few days, perhaps not so much tomorrow as I have tentative plans, but otherwise I should be around more. ^^

I think a few more characters for the Carcino conflict would be nice. I’ll upload some ‘skeleton’ sheets for some of my characters now and the work on fleshing them out—it’ll at least help to give you an idea of what my characters are going to be like. One of them will be Rottek’s daughter. Since we don’t have a troubadour yet I was thinking of making her one of those, but we also need a thief so I could work with that too. I’m very much looking forward to seeing this General of yours, so hopefully it won’t be too long (although I don’t have a place to complain here).

Especially in this story I think having nobody soldiers makes sense. So yes, I think they should travel with some. But I also think we should make up an estimate for how many nobody soldiers there are (to help with battle situations and such).

Fire Emblem: Shards of Chaos

I’m mildly confused. If S. Carcino won’t be openly defying the alliance what exactly will be happening?

Yes I do like the idea of Lance coming upon the already escalated war.

Sounds about right so for a starting post something like—

Lance, Welan, Kendal, and Farsine are travelling to Grado. On the way there they encounter bandits and rescue the cleric Mona.

During a meeting of strategy in which King Eldys and his generals (including your unfinished one) are at an assassin of unknown origins succeeds in killing one of his loyal vassals.

And… Laures is playing peacemaker between N. Carcino and S. Carcino?

Mother Goose: The Retelling

Tempting...

Fire Emblem: Shards of Chaos

Well Carcino (both halves) were already allies with the Golden Alliance and paid mild tribute to some of the countries and rulers. (We did discuss this before). So I think he’d be going to make sure things don’t get out of hand losing them their allies. I was imagining the alliance had always been a bit begrudging between the Carcino’s and the Golden Alliance; however, Rottek (the Lord of N. Carcino) would praise them and basically convince them he only has their best interest in mind (really he’d just want to remain on the more powerful countries good sides should things go sour). Laures would probably try to barter an alliance between the two but the two aren’t getting along, Lord Rottek is being very adamant in having Lord Adrian removed from his position (believing him responsible for S. Carcino’s “faults”). S. Carcino is fed up with N. Carcino (and probably paying up to the Golden Alliance) and the conference ends in failure. War escalates and S. Carcino turns to Jehanna, etc.

It could be that Ismaire wants to help for the throne, but the group could have also just been hired. And then later stumbles along Lance and Co.

Fire Emblem: Shards of Chaos

I see two possibilities. One could be that the victim was originally intended to be the King but the assassin missed/the assassinated intentionally took the hit instead. Or secondly, he was killed simple to remove an important ally from the King’s side.

Ah! I really like that idea. I had already imagined Laures would be stationed somewhere to the more eastern area (presuming the right side of the map is east) of Renais. It’s quite likely that once things begin to get slightly out-of-hand he would travel to Carcino. How things go from there would depend on whether the hostilities are only toward North Carcino or toward the Golden Alliance as well.

I was thinking he joined shortly after Santiago became the Commander ~3-4 years ago. Does that sound fine?

Fire Emblem: Shards of Chaos

[Going off what you said] We start the role play with Lance on his way to Grado, it could be night/late evening and the group could be in rest. Farsine could return to the group after scouting and either report bandits attacking a nearby place or bandits on their way to the town/camp the group is staying at. If we go with the former it could be an infirmary type place and Mona could be there. If we go the latter she’d just be in the town. (Basically a short battle and a way for her to join). Then he could carry on to Grado where I will, in fact, have characters (the king, his two children, and probably some others I make up along the way). And from there we’d basically follow your outline.

Playing them in Carcino could be fun as it could also bring in some Rausten characters too. It’d also help establish the group’s dynamic in game before they join up with Lance. Which reminds me, how long has Felix been with them?

I think minor confusion may have arisen. The King of Renais, King Eldys is definitely going to focus more on the political aspect. I was more wondering about his younger brother, Laures. Although what I think I might do is have him return from his station to the capital. As for the intrigue, I’d like to avoid faltering Frelia and Renais so early on, however, if we were to have one of his prominent advisors/generals assassinated it could cause some turmoil, especially if no-one can figure out where the assassin was sent from. What do you think?
