Some people need to make a hard choice when deciding which two karaoke streams they want to listen to. I have no such weakness: I have two ears for a reason.

The hard part about trying to play some politically savvy mastermind is the assumption that the world operates off real world politics and not your DM’s politics.

Don't put too much stock in prophesies. At best they're full of shit, but more often than not they're one of those self-fullilling kinds. Plan for what happens afterwards instead.

A character isn't deep or compelling just because you let them get hurt a lot, are always depressed, or do morally questionable things.

Bio



If you're here either you're wondering what I'm doing cause I need to post in your RP (In which case, calm yo tits, I'll get around to it), or you want to know who I am. So let's begin.

I'm a college age asian kid who has more heart than he has senses. I'm still working out this whole "adulthood" thing, so until then I just do what I feel I must. As far as personality and traits go, I'm not one for boasting. So if there's anything redeeming about myself you'd have to figure it out in person or by word-of-mouth. Generally however I'm rather perverted, in the best and worst ways. nothing is too much until I've crossed the line, and that just means I've started.

As far as Roleplays I like, I have a thing for fantasy, though I'm also good for some types of sci-fi, supernatural, Modern, and slice-of-life. If it's open and sandbox, I'll probably join it. Never really been a romantic, I often chose to sexualize any notion of romantic encounters I come across. I generally write at Casual quality, though I have no issues with Free-Level Rp/Players and I can hold my own in Advance.

Go for it.
“Nothing worth mentioning. Got a lot of strange people who come here for a drink and to mind their own business and I’m happy to oblige. Anything that’s worth noting ain’t worth talking about, capish?” The bartender said in a somewhat aggressive tone. Seemed like he was getting a bit annoyed by your line of questioning. Shortfang, climbing on Buddy so he could reach you in this crowded area, whispers down to you. “Maybe we give him shinies for Info? We give shinies, we customers yeah?” The bartender himself was busy handing out drinks and wasn’t really paying attention to your group anymore.

Stats alone are both important and not important. That is to say, having 100 in Physical Defense doesn’t mean you’re invincible: it just means that you have the highest level of defense for a character of your level. And I’m sure there are some techniques or attacks that either aim for your weaker defenses like magic defense or ignored your defenses entirely via damage over time effects or just doing percentile damage.

Not to mention if You put so much points into defense you won’t be able to put them into offensive stats, so even if you’re hard to kill you’ll also not be much of a threat. And if you don’t have agility than you’d best have a range option otherwise characters can just kite you to death. And if you don’t use a lot of magic abilities, you don’t really need MP but if you do you will need a lot of MO if you want to consistently use your specials and not just your basic attacks all the time.

Ultimately stats aren’t as important as what skills you have. Any buffer type caster could probably just stack buffs to make them statically the strongest character, but with out the techniques and skills to utilize them they’re just an over buffed mob.
The bartender almost took your drawing, but stopped to give it a glance. “Nah, don’t get many guards over in the docks district. I got my own men to be my muscle if anyone starts trouble.” He continues to serve out drinks with rapid precision. “Is that all? Things are starting to pick up now. If you’re looking for guards or whatever ask one of my criers, they’re the kids passing out my flyers. They see things.”
Ye, with so many ladies around the air will be thick with passive aggressive commentary.

“Ashara, you’re so fluffy I could make a coat from all the hair in the bathroom.”

“It is a ship full of drunken sailors, Sylvia. It’s going to be weird.” Pylia sighed as she followed you into the ship. It was pretty packed, with so many sailors trying to get drinks that many didn’t even sit down, just chugging their grog and bread where they stand. Many tried to touch you but their drunken hands, as well as the intentional interception by Buddy and Pylia, made sure no one harassed the group as you got up to the bartender. The bartender was a tall elven man with very sharp features. “Here for Happy Hour? Order quickly, I’ve other patrons to serve.” He says as he fills up a drink, takes a tab from a customer, and passes the booze down.
The swap has been made! Silke evolved into Ashara!
Ashara wants to learn 'Splash'.


Mamoru uses Harden.
The group leaves the Red Cliff district and heads over to the docks. While there are a lot of boats, not many of them were very decorated. Most had fairly plain looking designs or at best, colorful masts, but nothing that looked like a mermaid. Most of these ships were fishing vessels as well. If there was a boat that had anything to do with mermaids it'll likely be named not depicted. As you were looking around however someone would come to stop you. A small child who handed you a flyer. "Hello lady! It's happy hour at the Throaty Mermaid! Buy a meal and get a complimentary mug of grog!" The child would soon leave to pass out more flyers, but this was a lead for you. The Throaty Mermaid was a floating inn of sorts, basically a large boat that you could rent a room for the night and order a meal. You vaguely remember Shor telling you about it when you were asking for a place to stay. Located at the Waterfront, that basically meant a rather rundown part of the docks similar to the sewer entrance through ironically, the sewer entrance and the waterfront were quite distant from one another.

In any case you would eventually arrive to the Throaty Mermaid. It seemed pretty busy with gruff looking sailor types for the happy hour, buying grub and grog and getting rather belligerent for what was probably somewhere around noon. Most people seemed to ignore you aside from a few drunks who were catcalling you and Pylia. "Ugh. I'd rather go into the sewers than deal with drunken sailors. Where do we need to go from here, Sylvia?" Pylia asked you as she tried not to look at the men trying to call you two over.
Roll me an investigation, perception, or persuasion check for me please.
"Perhaps? He does seem to be well educated, perhaps he knows a thing or two about monsters. If nothing else he knows about magical enchantments, and I'm sure a slaad gem has something to do with those." As Buddy pointed out the sign, everyone else looked at it with great interest. "Dead drop? Shortfang knows those! Sometimes Shortfang get bounties from dead drops. Maybe bad guards have bounties or shiny monies?"

Opening the box, you don't find much. It seemed pretty empty. There was however a note left on the underside of the box. The note simply showed what you'd guess to be a map, though the details were fairly sparse. There was an rather childish drawing of a boat, with what you'd assume to be a fish person on it. The top half of a stick person and the waist down was a fish. There was some sort of dotted line trail that let to what you'd assume to be an alley of some sort where there was another tiny drawing of the lightning sword symbol. There was nothing else on the note. Pylia looked at it and tried to connect the dots. "Well... I guess if we'll investigate this, we'll need to head to the docks and find a boat with a fish person? There's a lot of alleyways on the docks though, and boats as well."
