The Black Undeath [Medieval + Zombies] (NOW RECRUITING)

Alright I'm gonna see if I can use this as a recruitment thread now. I should probably just make a new one but this was still on the front page... sooo bump.

Metro 2037

I keep forgetting to work on my character. I'll try to get that done quickly, then.

The Black Undeath

@Nerdude Oh, don't feel like you have to check that out. But by boosting technology level I mean potentially featuring something like early renaissance weapons and tech. Also, fair enough.

-

@Kuro Oh cool, I wish I could read it. ;~;

The Black Undeath

@Nerdude Yes, Rhogein - as well as Oroulam and Apolund to an extent - are inspired by / based on medieval Europe. Each one has additional influences, like the northern two regions having a little more Viking influence among other things. But yeah, pretty much. I am, however, boosting the technology level by a bit.

To your second question, I touched on this in the Interest Check but never fully addressed it. Religion in Rhogein is shattered like elsewhere in the world, but new understandings of faith have risen. These new faiths will worship flames, and I think I remember stating they could consult holy fire as a form of divination.

I probably shouldn't have tried to answer this right after waking up, so I'll try to address it better later. It's actually something I forgot to develop with the rest of the RP, despite originally wanting it to play a role. So that's my bad.
But if you wanted anything in particular as far as religion goes, I suppose you'd better tell me now.

@AXIS That's the beauty of it.

The Black Undeath

@Nerdude Alright. Prepare to wish you were dead, then.

-

@Inkarnate Gotcha. Take your time. I'm thinking of posting a recruitment interest check seeing as we lost 3, now 4, from the original Check. Which I'm not really surprised about.

-

@Kuro Oh cool, thanks. Didn't know that was possible. Still messes with my OCD but I'll just have to live with that.

Side note, is your new avi from something? The one wearing... I think either a coat of plates or lamellar armor? Looks cool.

The Black Undeath

After what I just looked up, I'm totally fine with that. As the GM I feel that I can't, in good conscience, accept a character if I don't feel someone is putting as much effort into it as can be expected from anyone else. And that is, unfortunately, exactly the case here. I don't mind someone taking inspiration from an established fandom, or adapting a canonical fandom to fit an RP, but I do mind when someone doesn't take the time to write their own character's biography. That's plagiarism. I can't accept this.

I told you I didn't need a short story for a biography, but you didn't even write any of it yourself. It takes no effort to copy and paste something. I've also stated that I'm willing to help anyone that needs it, or to tell me me if I missed anything once I linked to the OOC in the interest check. Perhaps that was easy to miss but now I'm stating it here. I'm fully willing to cooperate with anyone, because I want to make sure I can accommodate everyone I can. But I cannot accept this on principle alone.

The Black Undeath

That may be the case, but are you going to be playing as her or her clan? Obviously they can be NPCs under your control, but nothing that matters in this new state of the world is really addressed. If her clan has survived, then so be it. But have they even survived at all? Are they doing well, have they suffered losses, have they been wiped out?

If her duty is also to her state then she has two solid reasons to not exist in the western regions where the roleplay is currently focused. As I am left to understand it; you would be alone in a currently unfinished part of the world. I can hurry to establish the eastern regions, but that will take time and you'd still be alone. If you want to be alone, so be it, but in as wide of a world as that would create... that's stacking up to be a lot of work for me to do for one player.

But if your character was in the western regions... why? Why would she leave her homeland?

The Black Undeath

@Inkarnate Yeah, I'm hoping that a few more people I've seen hang on the thread are interested - but it's only semi-sandbox. I do still have plans.

-

@Madison Parker Okay, I like it. It's interesting. I wasn't sure if I wanted to include eastern lands yet, but it's fully reasonable to believe they're in the same state as the west. Struggling to survive.

But that's one of two things I don't think your biography addresses. The other is your character herself. You're from a different land, and I would like to know where Hiromi is in the world now that the undead have come. You could easily just tell me in response to this post where you intended for her to start. But I would also like to know something about her, as all the biography tells us about is her clan. I don't want you to tell me her personality, just something about her life.

Again, I like it. It just doesn't seem like it resonates with the RP just yet. If you have any questions or need any help, just ask - my PMs are always open if you prefer that.

-

@Nerdude For being out of it for as long as you claim, you've done a pretty good job here. I don't really see any issues with the sheet, so I hereby deem thee worthy of acceptance. Barring anyone else's immediate concerns you may post them to the Character Tab.

@QT@Dumb1And1Lazy Both of you guys have been gone for awhile, but if you come back and are still interested the OOC was posted.

@pugbutter If you're still interested, Idk if you're aware the OOC was posted or not.

Figured I really should let y'all know.
