Noble Arms is now either four years old, or three years and eleven months. The third thread had lasted for more than one year.

My Roleplay, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, will reach its 4th year in June or July. It's been a long journey.

Despite its massive flaws, my RP, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, is still one of the longest ongoing RPs in RPGuild - It turns 4 years old in July and the current thread itself is more than a year old.

Oh, forgot to tell you all; Ryougu left the site.
@Double@Arty Fox@Rex@ShadowVentus@SMS@Kalzky@Rockin Strings@Ryougu@GoddessOfNature:

Are you okay with me moving this RP to a second thread to attract more players once Panem is done?
@Letter Bee
1) Figured

2) Planned to when you said it would annoy the other players. Im just trying to get as much information as I can. At the moment I dont have anything except them being rash


Thanks anyway.
@Letter Bee
Caring about others, even though she considers them to be below her.

To be honest I dont know, im just going through ideas


1.) Hard to do well.

2.) Just scrap the god-complex?
@Letter Bee@Double@Arty Fox

What you are basically saying is that you are fine with a character which has a god complex as long as they have some kind of redeemable factor?


Yes. But it depends on what said redeemable factor is.
<Snipped quote by Arty Fox>

I'm inclined to agree with this sentiment. An asshole character isn't necessarily bad, so long as they tend to get comeuppance in some form or other characters get opportunities to call them on out on their shit. The only time an arrogant character with a God complex becomes too much of a problem is if they get to be a Karma Houdini and constantly get off scot-free.

Edit: Let's not forget what a snarky little shit my character is, and no one seems to have a problem with his antics.

Edit 2: Oh yeah, charisma is an important factor, too. If they're going to be a jerk they need to be a likable jerk otherwise they come off as completely obnoxious and insufferable. Pretty sure Seth gets away with his crap because he manages to be hilarious while trolling people.


Yes, the bolded part is right.
@Letter Bee
By any chance would a character with a flaw of a god complex be alright?

So they believe they are all powerful and unbeatable when in actual fact they are the exact opposite.


That might annoy the other players.
@Letter Bee

Hello, by any chance is this rp still accepting? If so may I please apply?


Yes to both questions.

Samuru Amakusa

Samuru had carefully and meticulously packed his sunscreen, clothes, drinks and snacks in his backpack. Wearing a starched T-Shirt and jeans, which had a set of bright red swimming trunks underneath them, the young man looked unassuming, was unassuming. He went downstairs to where his mother and father were watching a televised mass on the TV, and sat behind them as they watched the priest officiate over the sacred ceremonies. It doesn't matter if God is Evil, he thought once more. What matters, is that his creed can be salvaged.

His mother was the first to notice his presence, and say: "You ready for your first beach trip without family?" This was responded to with a slight, but prompt nod, which caused the boy's father to smile at his wife and son.

"Samuru," the middle-aged man said as he rose up, brusing off dust from his salaryman's pants, "Before you go, we would like to tell you...we love you for what you are. For what you always were, no matter what you choose to do with it." A roundabout way of saying that they knew. Gratitude filled Samuru's heart as he said:

"Thank you, Father, thank you, Mother. I love you two too." The televised mass finished at that moment, allowing Samuru to get up so that he can finally go depart on his 'beach trip'. As he walked out of the house, he would wave goodbye, goodbye at the smiling faces of his parents. He would remember that when things were darkest, he supposed. For if he continued with his connection to Rui, things will get darker.

Train Terminal, Warukama Town

Samuru would join Rui's group, taking great care to stay away from Ryan Chideta and Sato Hashimoto and Mako Moritomi. He was not certain where things stood between them after Seto, and was...scared to find out. This state of affairs would last for a while, during which he would look at Rui Sinichi and his two...co-leaders? He would blink, looking at the people around him, the people he had disappointed. And he would not be able to speak.

He visualized the Chapel of the Martyr, then The Velvet Room, the two places where he had confronted his Shadow. He now knew that his troubles had not ended, if anything, they had just begun. Which brought up the question; should he stay within Rui's group?

Flee, his mind spoke, These people will never be your friends, acceptance or no acceptance. What do you owe to them when they only rescued you out of obligation, when they are merely a closed circle? They will never let you in. A moment of resistance in Samuru's thoughts, a moment in which he fell back to old habits and denied those were his. That moment passed, to be replaced with acknowledgement. He will not refuse to own up to his failings and his lines of thinking ever again.

He faced his group, for they were his'. They might not like him that much, but he will try his hardest to help them. He just wished he knew how; his first thought was to offer Sato some sunscreen, but the other young man might take that the wrong way.

That and it could also insult Kotori to assume that she didn't bring any lotions. Sigh, it meant that he would have to reply to Ryan, then. Ryan whom he had offended because of his ineptitude and being overly nice in a warzone. Looking up at the Chideta scion, Samuru would say, "Well, I'm doing fine. How are you?"

He then pulled out his handkerchief from his pants pocket and offered it to the obviously tired and sweaty teen. "Here, if you want it." He probably doesn't, the treacherous part of him thought, and Samuru acknowledged that courageously, meaning that he didn't stop doing what he was doing. I stand by my group, even when I failed them before.

@Sho Minazuki@Takaru@floodtalon@Sen
@Grec, On second thought, I was discussing things with a friend, and he told me I'd be happier running a Mages-only (Or if people insist on other splats, with Mages as the prime priority) game elsewhere. So, I'll have to withdraw my offer, then.

Really sorry about this.
