Is this limited to two characters per parent? I'd love to join as a son of Apollo or Athena.

@smarty0114

Yes it is, sorry. :( You may choose one of the other slots, though. We have the Son of Aphrodite free. There's also Posidon's son, but @Wade Wilson is currently making one for that role(she needs to hurry her ass up, though. :P). However, if you want to make a female character, we have the daughters of the following free: Hecate, Hephestaeus, and more recently, Zeus.

The link to the cast is here. You may also find the Character Skelly in the Chars Tab.

For that brief moment of silence, Jaakuna saw the worry and anxiety on the faces of those that were sitting down and eating their meals. Jaakuna saw that his presence shook them to their core. He saw that they were gripping those closest to them as if Jaakuna himself posed some kind of danger to them. Truth was, he kind of did. Even though he could fight—and rather well, but he preferred not to unless it came down to it. So, the fear of enhanced vocal intimidation would have to do.

It was going so well. At least, until some idiot decided to open their mouth, declaring that they were the one that Jaakuna was looking for.

“Oh, so you’re in charge, huh.” Jaakuna stepped forward, walking closer to the female.

Gauging her body head to toe, the blonde had to admit that she was easy on the eyes. Her olive-colored complexion gave her an exotic look. If it didn’t, her long, black hair and hazel-colored eyes demanded Jaakuna’s attention. Further down to the torso, Jaakuna caught a glimpse of her curves that were perfectly complemented by her midriff. Even though she was a bit on the short side, Jaakuna couldn’t take his eyes off of her. It was almost as if he was mesmerized by her beauty.

But all good things had to come to an end, right?

Jaakuna shook his head, getting his hormones in check.

“Alright, listen up, hotcakes.” JAakuna said to her, giving her a cocky smirk, “I come representing the--” Jaakuna hesitated, feeling a strong amount of disgust that found its home on his tongue. It refused him to say their name,”—The Triple Triad and they want their money.” Jaakuna said clearly, but he still felt the tinge of revulsion in his mouth.

God, Jaakuna hated being like this. If it wasn’t for fucking Zang. If he would have just left Jaakuna alone, if he would’ve left Gan and Muku alone, he wouldn’t have to be forced to play the gangster act on, who he had to assume were good people. Hell, they were in a soup kitchen for god’s sake. How could they be bad?

As he was somewhat stranded in his own hatred for what he was doing, Jaakuna was starting to show it slightly on his face. He didn’t know it, but surely the desirable female in front of him would see it. That is, to say if she could spot those little hints of facial expressions.

When I’m done here, I’m going to kill Zang—or maim him. Whatever doesn’t get me hung or worse.

@Obscurus @Altered Tundra

I'm really struggling to follow with all these posts to read and digest. There's just way too many things going on or have gone on and its too far in.

On second thought, I don't think I can do this while still retaining a good quality. If only I had been here from the beginning. Nevertheless, I thank you for your guidance and kindess. My deepest apologies.

@Symphoni

I'm sad to see you go. If, at any time in the future, you do decide to re-apply, you're always welcome to do so. :) Sorry it didn't work out, though. :(

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

<Snipped quote by FantasyChic>

I don't mean to sound defensive, but this goes both ways sometimes. Active players inspire an active GM; an active GM inspires active players. It's a symbiosis between the two that is often overlooked, in my opinion. People often assume that the Game Master/Leader/Teacher should do everything, but the players/followers/students have an equally important task in that endeavor.

I know that I can get discouraged if my players don't say anything, don't talk to each other, or just sits there waiting for me to keep everyone entertained. So, what you are describing could be a reaction to that. Now, I don't know the context, and maybe it's just the GM, but what I've mentioned here is fully possible.

@Prisk

Oh this is so true. I gm a game and I often find myself with half of my motivation sapped cause only myself and 1-3 others post semi-regularly. The rest of the 5+ other players are either just too busy with their lives outside of the guild or just simply aren't intersted in posting, which, as you said, Prisk, is a two-way street when it comes to GMs and how often they post(or rather, what they do in their posts). Like, sure GMs have a responsibility to keep things moving along and progressing the story..that is, to say, if it's a plot-driven RP. If it's a character-driven story, then it's the other way around. The players have the responsibility to keep the story going through character interactions and relationships. If not, then the game is surely to die not long after it started and/or after it entered a rapid decrease in posting frequency.

I love it! Idk how I feel about the eyes being the only thing with the blue blur/tint though. Would it be hard to remove that?
A++ on the fonts, though!

@Silent Observer

The idea behind the eyes was half-based on how you wanted ethereal blue, and half-based on the idea of her eyes being the only thing he focuses on and how he's pledging his love with her via the window to her soul.

Dance With The Angels - A GFX Shop by Altered Tundra

Type of Request: Sig
Stock:boop
Size:Because the image isn't super HD, i think it would be best to not change the size that much.
Text: I will make a pact with you: I will do it if you will do it, always and forever. Take down the walls.
Other: I would like for there to be elements of an ethereal blue color tinting the image (as that is the color of my character's eyes, so the sepia kinda throws it off). Going for a sad, yet romantic feel, if that makes sense. And I would like for the last line 'take down the walls' to stand out in some way for impact. Maybe italics? Either way, you're other works look great, I'm sure I'll love it! :D

@Silent Observer

Well, it's not my best, but I must say I am actually proud of how it turned out; hopefully you think the same.
