Phoenix Wing (A Fairy Tail RP-Always Open, Open)

@Zarkun Optimism doesn't mesh well with my 19 year old gay guy thinking he's a 30 year old red wine drinking housewife aesthetic

@Leslie Hall It hasn't happened yet.

It should be all right. I bought enough alcohol to kill an elephant so hopefully even if it is crap I won't remember it tomorrow

This is the last time I plan a party...

I'm getting around to it >_>

Dreamscape | A World Forgotten (1 Spot Open)

@Lunarlors34 Adoni and Kwenda seem like they would have been the two outcasts of their tribe. Maybe there is a pre-existing bond there?

Dreamscape | A World Forgotten (1 Spot Open)

@SillyGoy I can go with that. They wouldn't really hate each other, in fact I'd say Kwenda would have a lot of respect for Yel. Yet there'd be some air of mistrust between them. Neither of them are bad guys, so it's not like they'd be at each others throats. I just wouldn't expect them being chummy with each other anytime soon.

But things can develop! They can either become good friends or grow to hate each others guts!

Darkness and Light

@Cultural Titan Oh no! Please don't think it was you! Goodness xD

I've actually just not been very fond of her since I finished the sheet. I believe I was too eager to write her up. If anything, your comments only reinforced how I felt about her.

I maaaaaay make another character, but at this point I'm not sure. So for the sake of convenience I'm just withdrawing Joan and leaving the spot of Commander of the Kingsguard open to anyone else. At the moment I'm quite busy though irl so we shall see!

I'm honestly not a fan of my first post. I'm glad to see the others are excellent to draw attention from mine though.

I've been very busy these last few days (as well as having received some pretty awful news), but it's all culminating in tomorrow. The planning, the cleaning, the spending... oh god the spending. It promises to be a memorable night. Actually that's a lie, if things go as well as they hope then I shall hopefully awake remembering none of it!

@Lunarlors34 You don't have to worry about that! Write to the best of your ability! There's no wrong way to write your own character.

Also just for the sake of curiosity, what kinds of pre-established relationships would our characters have? For the sake of tension let's try not to make it all sunshine and rainbows.

Darkness and Light

@Cultural Titan I think I'll just remove Joan. I kind of really like Lucinda as a character and I'm worried that having multiple characters will make it hard for me to focus on her.

Lucinda, while not meant for combat, has her own unique tools that make her effective against the Dark Side. Not that she'll be fighting them often, but if she ever had to ward them off or protect herself she'd be quite competent. Although I'm not sure how the others would feel about that.

Her magic doesn't necessarily make her stronger than those of darkness, but it's certainly an effective tool for keeping them at bay should she ever have to. But this all depends if Lucinda gets accepted and people are alright with the concept of Sunlight Sorcery being a powerful means of delaying the advances of the Dark Side. Plus there's also her sword, Eclipse, which is also a very effective weapon against darkness. Although I don't intend for her to use it; a Queen doesn't just wave around a sword to defend herself after all. I was actually hoping of passing it on to someone in character. A right of passage if you will.

I think the reason I made Joan the way she was is because even though I agree to an extent that the dark side should be stronger than the light at the start; I feel like there has to be significant hurdles for them to overcome as well instead of just rolling through towns, creating mayhem and destruction. Even though I'm withdrawing Joan, I feel as though Lucinda's power could act as one of those hurdles.

In a sense, the Queen is really an embodiment of the Light. That wasn't the intention when I made her, but it seems to fit.

Darkness and Light

@Cultural Titan I am willing to rework Joan's abilities and still keep the whole skilled rogue/spy aspect while removing things that aren't exactly necessary.

One thing being her incurable wounds. It was a neat concept at the time but it's somewhat unnecessary and only exists to to make recovering after a fight with her needlessly complicated in the IC. I would still like to keep her resistance to mind magic, but I think she could do without Golden Thanatos' magic cutting powers. In all honesty, Black Thanatos' marks is a more than effective tool for dealing with mages, so she doesn't really need any more.

I'm sure I can think of something to replace the Golden Thanatos' ability. One that fits with her quick fighting style. What I might do is remove the magical marks from her black dagger and put them on her golden dagger. So her golden dagger is the one effective at dealing with mages and her black dagger is a deadly sharp tool that causes lots of bleeding.

I imagine there isn't much of a discrepancy with her talents, since it mostly seems like the issue you're facing is with her weapons abilities.

But those are just ideas. I'm also considering scrapping her all together and trying something new.
