Current Remember, nobody actually enjoys roleplaying if there isn't at least five shameful fetishes uncovered by the 2nd page.

Somebody stole my mood ring. I don't know how to feel about it.

Let's be honest, it's far more satisfying and challenging to actually imagine what a character looks like than paste a hundred gifs of a celebrity and call it good.

So, a team of players who are good at playing as a team in a team-based game are individually bad players. Seems kind of silly when you put it like that, no?

My goal these days is to have an RP that can actually finish, or the very least, last a few years. I see way too many die on page one to take chances

Serena can down Ryncol I'll have you know!

She'll immediately pass out.

But she can!


I think if she tried to drink that, she'd be shitting blood for a week.
I'm super fuckin tempted to post T_T I'm crying inside XD

THE FRUSTRATION! ARGH!!! *shakes fist in the air*


I have to say, @Dervish, I am enjoying Rykarn's bored/exasperated tough guy routine way too much ^_^


Thanks! He's young for a krogan, but he's basically the Danny Glover "I'm too old for this shit" kinda guy at the moment haha.

<Snipped quote by Rithy>

This. Rykarn is, as of now, the shit.


Aww shucks.
With this in mind, Sagax is gonna take a page from Connor Kenway's book and run around and loot the fallen Kamal for a chance at finding the key skin their pelts to sell at a store later.


Fix'd. ;D
And just like that, the world went stupid again.

An asari who had been hiding somewhere made her presence known with a torrent of mockery geared towards the local population. The forced friendly disposition, the indecipherable slang, and the bombastic presentation were enough to lend an air of surrealism to the already tense situation. Other than being loud and obnoxious, at least she wasn't adding to the tension in the-

"-GET GETH DOWN GET DOWN!!!"

Fuck.

The asari pushed through to get towards the geth, which introduced itself as Phalanx and thus was asserting itself as more than an uncomfortable part of the decorum, and before long, a gun was in her hand and opening fire on the synthetic. The krogan clenched his teeth and sprang into action, not out of love for preserving the geth's integrity, but to avoid drawing in every police office in a two block radius.

Rykarn charged, bowling into the asari in a hugging charge and forcing her to the platform, grabbing hold of her weapon carrying wrist. "Enough! Were you in a coma the past year?" He snarled, inches from her face. A hand shot out, pointing towards the geth. "That is not an enemy. It was invited here, just like the rest of us. Keep your weapon to yourself, because the next time that happens, I'm not going to be gentle." he said, pushing himself away from the asari, his sidearm now in hand. "If this place isn't swarming with police in the next ten minutes, consider yourself lucky. Did you forget we're in downtown London?"

Interestingly, Rykarn noticed that Ellis had put himself in the way of the asari's gunfire to protect Phalanx. It was unexpected; ex-Cerberus but putting his life in danger to save a geth, of all things. Maybe he actually had genuine intention to reform. "You hurt?" he asked the human.
I'm just going to do a quickie post to stop the gun fire.

Then we can carry on.

I will apologize in advance if Rykarn's actions would have had a retaliatory response, @Rithy, I'm not going to injure Vella, just mildly restrain her weapon until she calms down.

Lemme know if that's an issue!
@Rithy We're still supposed to be characters Spectres selected for a mission. Hot headed and impulsive stuff like setting off explosions and shooting guns in a busy city is starting to strain that premise.

I get the humour aspect, but yeah. Let's not make the GMs' lives hell trying to justify things.
It sounds like people want krogan intervention.

I was going to wait a few more posts before my turn, but yeah, if nothing else is done, I am going to have krogan stop asari from being a dum dum.

But seriously, starting things off with an explosion and shooting at other characters is getting silly. The GMs haven't even had a chance to reply.
@MiddleEarthRoze To clarify, she doesn't need to bave smithing skills, someone who does just needed to be in attendance to craft something that'll work on the lock.
@DervishThat is all very good advice. I've been solo writing for too long! I like stories with multiple perspectives from multiple different characters, so I tend to stray over in some ways. I'll keep an eye out for that. Killer Krogan, by the way.


Thanks! Glad you enjoy him. I always wonder how people take my characters out of the gate. Hell, I wonder what people think of them months or years later. >_>

I'm actually an awful solo writer. I have the hardest time trying to plan out a story and characters and all the plot points and so on so forth. I probably should actually try sometime.

<Snipped quote by POOHEAD189>

I mean I killed the Council on my most recent Paragon run. Assholes...

I have also reached a point where expanded histories are a pain to write. I might have to give a shorthand "What's happened since Saren?" version if it's gonna be good.


I pretty much summed up the events of Mass Effect and the post war period in just a few short paragraphs, nothing too in depth. Everyone knows what happened in the series, all you really have to do is make note of what your character was doing at that point. It's the developmental years and major life events are the stuff that really matters for being focused on.
