You simply don't get it. It's like you have a brick skull. I explained Zande's fancies, and that's just how he is unless you want us to change character personalities.

And I explained how he'd have joined, which included multiple acts of heroism. With no explanation short of "not good enough", you tell me to get the hell out.

You wonder why I'm rude when I have to deal with that? But I don't expect you to understand how making an actual, enjoyable character works anymore. If you don't accept foreigners into the Knights, then put it in the rules and save some other poor bloke three days. I wash my hands of this. Go on and keep telling me and everyone how I never adressed the problems astutely, and keep a blind eye to how little you helped to resolve said problem other than just telling me to redo it again and again.
@VitaVitaAR

You did nothing but tell me to redo the same thing over and over and complain more each time. Nothing I could have done short of rewriting the character would have pleased your puny sensibilities.
@VitaVitaAR

I'm so glad that you feel you're reasonable.

So if you don't agree with a character's personality, or if they come from too far away, pointlessly interrogate and belittle the one who plays said character for three days then when they finally express frustration at the misleading, circular questions, tell them to gtfo.

Go lick a cow. I wouldn't touch this with a thirty meter stick.
@Raineh Daze

Go back and read my last few posts so you know what's actually going on and won't force me to continually repeat myself. I've already been at that point and fixed it.

@Tarquin

Ooh, you're right! I should have him join some order in fantasy Africa and play by my fucking self.

@VitaVitaAR

You, the same as the above. If winning a tournament, helping orphans, and saving a monk won't get him in, even after he lies about his past, then nothing will. How about fifteen monks? You accepted a 200 year old girl with a sword bigger than she is, but you get hung up on a foreigner? Sweet Christ.

@Themerlinhawk

I've explained every single little issue, from how he arrived to why he arrived to how he proved himself knightly enough to join, and now I have everyone asking me to say the same junk again and again. This running around in circles business is one of my peeves. I know Zande's motivations are unusual, but that's characterization for you. What else am I supposed to do, change his back story so he's white and grew up in fantasy Europe as a squire? While we're at it, I'll rename him Sir Coms Ishun and give him a fifty pound zweihander. Aye, aye, aye.
@Doc Doctor: That still doesn't really explain how he managed to get from the other side of the world to what's basically fantasy Europe.


Then ask me what you want to know. I'm starting to get annoyed. You didn't put other people through this bullshit interrogation about their origins, even the ones with vaguer pasts than Zande. He goes where he wishes, on a whim, out of boredom. Wanted a breath of fresh air. That's just how he is.

If you don't like different character types, then just say so and spare me this garbage.

@VitaVitaAR

By boat and horse, I've already said. How else, magic?

@knighthawk

I do believe I'm familiar enough with my own character to decide how "flippant" he is. His motivations are for me and me alone to decide, and should have no bearing on the application. As for the coconut...



I rest my case. As for the weaknesses, I don't recall a weakness section of the application being required. It's not like he's superhuman, be creative.

Are we finally done?
@The Kid Lantern

Here's my "evil genius". Think ruthless genre savvy Batman. He's low tech, but is the sort of baddie that knows just how to get what he wants. You know the kind I'm talkin' about.

I think the problem was that no first IC post had been made.
@VitaVitaAR

And henceforth upon the coming of Zande, our noble savage woneth ye olde tournament of champions and used the prize money to benefit ye olde local orphanage. Two days later he saved a friar falling from a foundry by wayeth of catching him with both arms.
HENCEFORTH did Zande then seeketh audience with the Rose Knights and made clear his aspirations, at the sameth time neatly inventing a believably heroic past for himself, in such a way that he was accepted.
You didn't mention that in the backstory section. ^^; I guess I'm just wondering how he go from the tropics to Thaln and how he heard about the Iron Rose Knights.


By boat/horse, and by word of mouth, unless nobody knows who the knights are, in which case he saw the job in the newspaper.

You didn't ask anyone else how their character heard of the knights, and I checked the other apps; none have that detail. Am I a special snowflake?
