Is DJ backflipping? Gods be damned. >.>

Was hoping to be active today but RL events will force me to post tomorrow. Here's hoping DJ saw and made use of the huge opening melon made for him.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

Alright, tomorrow I'll throw something up. Easier to do on a computer than a phone.

Haha. Yes, to Hadyn, the tails are an account of enlightenment and of power. However, it also represents his Fox spirit's grip on the physical realm. The two are separate in many ways, but also the same in many ways. My Lore will also Involve 'The Lady'. Possibly deriving from Indian Origins, from what I've read. According to it, she's the mother of all Kitsune. She has 10 tails in some writings, and in other ones she has a thousand. Of course, I don't plan on dismissing Inari in any way.

BTW. That Sandman character I'm working on. The way he looks and acts, is very similar to The Dreamers, but his story and abilities are definitely much different. Matter of fact, it would probably even make him an enemy of them. I just figured I'd point that out.

@Impaqt

Ya I saw the sandman....looks similar to me Sand Wraith before Guildfall. >.>

@ImportantNobody

I don't think so. I didn't even know you had one.

<Snipped quote by GreivousKhan>

Well then, perhaps we can cross paths. The thing about the Multiverse is, it's easy to translate lore in your own unique way. My character is essentially some off-branch of a Human, with a fox spirit. I avoid the 'FURRY' stuff. lol. I'm working on him now, and looking into also doing a few other similar characters afterwards. My goal list is as follows:

Kitsune - Fox
Senri - Cat
Okami - Wolf
Ogumo - Spider
Hebi - Snake

They'll all be pretty unique from one another though. I.E. Okami will focus more on Werewolf lore than wolf spirit stuff.

@Impaqt

Maybe, I was thinking of going into the base root of Kitsune lore, that being spiritual enlightenment. The more enlightened you are, the greater degree of control over chi you have (I.E your bodies electric potential) which thus means you have more tails. More tails of course means more power. Nine tails of course being the height of enlightenment.

That's my plan anyway, just need to find the time to get working on them. :P

Not sure what direction your going to go, but interaction between my Kitsune's and yours would be interesting. (though I was going to make them an all female race. XD)

Oh, on larger topics, at the moment the Multiverse has really one established power. The Angar Rylla of course being one of them. The Dreamers themselves are likely to be major players in some way for story purposes, but so far I don't believe they'd make for a good faction to have for the ARENA.

Which leaves us for at least two other larger powers (the idea being Ao does not want them going to war with each other on a large scale else there would be nothing left), so do people have any idea for interesting themes? I'm trying to avoid obvious evil factions or goody toe shoes ones, as those seem a tad bit unrealistic and hard to relate to. Joining any of these will of course be optional, but will make for nice spice for PC v PC story lines as for reasons to have conflicts. (Heck the whole Overgod thing will even explain away permanent death.)

Right now I have so many tabs open on my browser and a handful of PDFs of Kitsune Lore from various cultures. Meanwhile, on another character, I have several tabs, where I've just started on some Sandman type lore stuff for another potential character.

@Impaqt

Damn yo, I had been thinking of making a Kitsune character recently, three sisters in fact. In an effort to get more female characters on my roaster.

What a Coincidence.

<Snipped quote by MelonHead>

Haha!!! RIGHT! I know what you mean. Heck, I've probably learned more from Researching for roleplays than I even did when I was in school. Granted, most of it is non-essential information, but you never know when someone might want to know this random stuff, right!?

@Impaqt

<Snipped quote by Impaqt>

Yeah, I know a weird amount about tanks after spending about half a day designing my battle mech character. That's information I really don't need.

@MelonHead

Yup. Thankfully there's Game and Film theory to do the heavy research for me for allot of the things I'm interested in. I mean I had no idea before that DBZ was using actual theoretical science in their fights. That must throw Skalla's whole world into wack.

I mean, I might not have even learned that their are four fundamental stats of matter not three(never mind that only 1% of the universe is made up of liquid, solid and gas's) as we have been lead to believe in school. Goes to show you the Arena is where you go to really learn SCIENCE!

Shes p hot tho

@Darcs

@GreivousKhan Something missing from your backstory- Immortalis stuff. You didn't cover the circumstances she was in and such when she developed her abilities.

@Monochromatic Rainbow

I made some edits to go into more background detail.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

I assume I'm next then?

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

Use imagination when lacking description on part of arena maker or in this case the GM. Player too. I pictured a black sky more or less,

Also 5'11 is tall, these lot must not live in America where 5'10 is the new short. Make sense though.

Arena Chat Thread

Hey, just coming in to tell everyone I'm still around. New Arenas are mostly done but I have to take a break since judging for the Third Labour starts tomorrow, but you can expect all six to be ready and up by the 5th of August at the latest.

Here's a spoiler of their names and a hint at the nature in the meantime.

-Recursive Gameboard: Hope you've been practicing your Metagame.
-Geodesic Valley: Straightforward, in a roundabout way.
-Onslaught Station: A Prisoner's Dilemma run through a meatgrinder.
-Clockwork Fairground: A race to the finish - but it's not about who comes first.
-Timeshare Lodge: Where schedule conflicts become invariably fatal.
-The Rhino's Den: Never bargain with a Demon unless you have to.

@Terminal

Cool stuff. :3
