Hexaflexagon (Concept)
In geometry, flexagons are flat models, usually constructed by folding strips of paper, that can be flexed or folded in certain ways to reveal faces besides the two that were originally on the back and front.


Hexaflexagon (Person?)
Academic who somehow got conned into working for the Government. Been role-playing both on forums and TTRPGs for close to twenty years at this point. I'm like 99% retired from active RPing on the Guild, but I still like to poke my head onto here once in a while to make sure that I didn't leave the lights on.

Good question. Most likely tomorrow or the day after that, it will give the others a little bit more time but I also gotta finish straightening some things out on my end before we are all ready to go!
I'm alive and the second round of reviews have been completed.

@vietmyke
We already went over most of the details already but it is nice to see the finalized product! Accepted.

@Terminal
I love the detail and attention you put into Kuro. Also accepted.

You both may transfer your sheets over whenever is convenient for you.
@vietmyke
Indeed, it's not like I even mind the dying part. It's just that once I come out of the clone regenerator, I have to clean up all the blood and it's so hard to get blood out of the carpet. So hard.
@Rockette
Ten-four. I'm now home from work so I'll be floating around here for the rest of the night, when I'm not doing other things like cleaning so that the lady-friend does not kill me, feeding the tortoise, et cetera. So just fire your questions away and I'll get around to them when I have a spare moment.
@Littlefinger
Nah it all looks good on my end now. By the power invested in me by me I consider you accepted. You may post your sheet to the CS tab!

@DontCallMeZelda
Alright than everything else looks in order on my end. You are also accepted! You can transfer the sheet over at your leisure.
Alright first round of reviews has been done. So far everything is looking dandy. To reiterate what I said in the interest check, this is not a first come first serve kind of roleplay, we are open as long as you provided me with an interesting character that I feel would add something to the world. So nobody has to feel the need to rush out a Character Sheet, I want to see your best not something you shat out all quick and dirty like. That being said off to the reviews!

@DontCallMeZelda
We already hashed out most of the details through the PMs that you sent me, but I was interested to see where the concept headed. And after examination and review on my part everything seems to be in marching order. That beings side you are missing one part of the Character Sheet. The Physical description. While a picture can be used to supplement the description, I would prefer a written description as well none the less, I feel it helps paint a more lively picture your head and can help you cover some details that a picture wouldn't cover. Doesn't have to be anything major maybe just a paragraph or two describing them and what they usually are wearing in terms of clothing et cetra. If you need reference refer to Lyssa's sheet in the GM tab. (The only reason my NPC sheets will avoid this rule is just because I'm going to be cranking out a lot of them over time and not having to write the description helps ellivate the time crunch needed.) Probably should've stated that somewhere but besides that once that is added everything looks ship shape to me.

@Littlefinger
He's so young and innocent! I can't wait to see his native crushed by the cruel, cruel world. xD Though to be honest with you I really like the character concept so far. It'll be interesting to see how he mixes with some of the more serious members of the Company especially since he is more a welp at this point rather than a wolf. That being said, you also have the same problem as your comparative above, I also need a written description from you as well. It's just a me a thing really but it would make everything just a little bit more perfect.

Oh and a message out to everybody.
Pretty looking character sheets go a long way with me. I don't know I just like being able to see all the information splayed out in front of me all nice like. This means put it in a hider and to avoid putting too many hiders inside of your hiders if you need to like an image like a character image reference to supplement your description or a picture of a weapon or something rather than putting a hider with the image inside of it. If I could ever so kindly suggest that you rather like I did in my CSs instead use the [url=Example URL goes here] Words go in here that you want to be able to click to go to image [/url] method of linking them instead of putting the picture in. Thanks!
@vietmyke

I knew I liked you for a reason Myke. XD
@Lexicon
No problem. And that is a completely reasonable thing to do, you don't have to write done any opions of others just yet. lol

@Rockette
Alrighty then! Welcome aboard the everybody is going to die horribly train super happy fun time train!

Edit:
@DontCallMeZelda
Thanks and don't worry about it, just had to point it out so I don't seem like a hypocrite later. I'll look over the CS in a little bit when I have some actual time to read it over and give it the attention it deserves.
And as reminder to @Terminal @DontCallMeZelda and anyone else.

1/24/16 We are live and now accepting applications! Please post the application to the OOC and not the character sheet tab. Only accepted character sheets can go in that tab. Thank you and have a nice day.
Hexaflexagon


Meaning that while I'm okay if you did not see that and posted your sheet directly to the CS Tab, I do have to stick to my guns. So if you want your sheets to be reviewed please, please, please post them to the OOC.
@Lexicon
Alright some good questions.

Question #1:
Well that's really up to you. In terms of filling the parameters of the sheet you just have to check off the box saying if you are wizard or not. If you would like to go into detail about their powers than I'm all for it. But I tend to try and just keep it simple. They are wizards and can do all the wizardy things that wizards do because wizards. xD You know leave it up to the imagination more fun that way. Or putting them in the skills section works as well. Once again whatever floats your boat.

Question #2:
A timeline of the Companies shenanigans well for sake of simplicity we are going to go by the Imperial Calendar. So the year is 1172 IC. And the zero date is the founding of the Vorstagian Empire.

The Company of Wolves was founded in 2700 BIC as one of the many Dwarven Free Companies (Before Imperial Calendar)
1226 BIC: the Elves cross the Sea of Tears and arrive on the continent.
200 BIC: Humans cross the frozen seas.
125 BIC: The Wars of Human Aggression began
100 BIC: The Wars end as the last of the Elven Kingdoms are razed.
30 BIC: The Northern and Southern Kingdoms begin to shatter and the Age of 100 kings begins.
0 IC: The Vorstag Empire is founded.
Now we skip forward a bit.
1142 IC: King Arience Tyerial Kadover Estionia Lysteria dies in the North ending the Lysteria dynasty and Emperor Katovier eld Kovari ascends to the Imperial throne in the South.
1143 IC: The Wars in the South begin (The Company partakes on whoever pays them more throughout either the defenders or their Vorstagian aggressors.
1152 IC: The Wars in the South end with the Treaty of the Golden Sun, sealing Vorstagian dominance in the region.
1162 IC: The Wars in the North Begin and King Jaython of Arden takes control of the Ironmount and the North. (The Company once again takes up mercenary work fighting for both sides depending on the month)
1167 IC: The Company is hired by Lord Van of Starly. To help defend his small kingdom on the border between North and South.
1172 IC: The kingdom of Starly is conquered by the Vorstagins, The Company is sent to the Imperial capital to speak to the Emperor and rumors of the Wolven Storm arise in the far north.

In terms of what the Company was doing during all of this well they are sellswords, mercenaries who take on contracts for the biggest amount of pay. They have had their hands in many major events as combatants or setting the scene, they have fought for defenders of the peace and warlords out for blood. In short they've done a lot. So I'm not going to post any certain major jobs or mission they have done but they have done everything from hunting monsters, to killing kings. But I'll leave the history itself a blank, something that you can all help fill in as we go along. So major events they've been in? Well that's only limited to your imagination of course to some levels of reasons.
