Bio

Current GM of World of Light. When it comes to writing, there's nothing I love more than imagination, engagement, and commitment. I'm always open to talk, suggestion, criticism, and collaboration. While I try to be as obliging, helpful, and courteous as possible, I have very little sympathy for ghosts, and anyone who'd like to string me along. Straightforwardness is all I ask for.

Looking for more personal details? I'm just some dude from the American south; software development is my job but games, writing, and trying to help others enjoy life are my passions. Been RPing for over a decade, starting waaaay back with humble beginnings on the Spore forum, so I know a thing or two, though I won't pretend to be an expert. If you're down for some fun, let's make something spectacular together.

I would be happy if literally anyone used the images I made in their sheets, or if more people wanted me to do images for them.

This made me laugh XD

I'm actually here pretty much once or twice a day, i just get logged off and don't log back in unless posting. Sorry if I made you think I was losing interest as well, I feel quite the opposite actually. While were still in the slowish setup phase, I just makes me more and more eager to see how some of the character/story arcs start to rise and unfold.


Cool.
Regrettably I will not be joining you. Good luck to you all.
Sorry to hear that.
Holy cow I had not realized that there was such drama going on. Reading over the previous posts gives me a pretty good indication how downhill this argument has gotten. Debate I can respect, but even before the culmination this has become entirely unsatisfactory. This isn't the first time you've clashed, and I didn't comment on it then, but this resentment has gone on too far. Prince, you could try a lot harder to be less abrasive, and shadow, you could do with being more flexible.

If the two of you fail to work out a resolution without being civil, and that goes for both of you, I'm eliminating music class altogether, one of you is losing your GM status, and the other is going to find yourself playing a lot less than the music teacher.
Much obliged, Jangel.

We will have a short dedication time to sixth hour, shadow. While people are doing that over the course of the next day or two, the two of us ought to complete our collab.

My apologies, Kaithas. I'm just happy to see you've persevered through your troubles and returned.
Anyone else want a portrait?

Alright, Haden's current theme found and verified! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2F_fg4QrBvI (Not just the song, but this specific cover.)


Noice.


That said, I can't guarantee interest. I expect one or two of the RPs that I'm in (including skullgirls) to die imminently, so I might be able to free up some space.

Your rules sound downright nice compared to my rules.

Hey, you might consider getting a banner.
Abel Fulgurate


Any residual pain from the encounter with the Grimm paled in comparison to Abel's new horror. As he stood in front of the fountain, the Ampere held limply in his left hand, he stared with white eyes at the wretched thing on his chest. “My...my fancy blue coat...” he breathed, miserable and disconsolate as one who grieves after death. With all the joy sucked out of him and pooling around his shoes, the guardian had nothing left to due but squelch off to sixth period, leaving behind him a soggy, mournful trail of puddles. In more or less severe states of unhappiness departed the other Survival students, headed toward their own final hour classes. Though Abel knew that Language lay on his horizon, he couldn't image that he'd find the words to describe the sorrow that soaked through his waterlogged coat and into his bones.

Professor Vorosky, meanwhile, remained behind. With a callous cheerfulness he explained that there were likely a few students who missed the anomaly, and that he'd have to remain here for a time to see who else came through. His true feelings lay indiscernible beneath his mask; he could have just as easily been irritated at his students' collective failure as concerned with their well-being. He sounded pleasant enough, certainly, but something about the Survival teacher emanated a certain wildness, as though the time spent among woods and beasts physically dwelt in his psyche.

The bells marking the beginning of sixth period tolled.

Computer Science


The computer science laboratory was dark, which Ni knew wasn't healthy for the eyes, but there was no better working condition for computers. The light-up keyboards and vibrant displays pierced the shadows, creating points of activity and potential that sucked up students' focuses like water into a sponge. Of course, Ni could not deny that a fragment of him kept the lights low so that he could steal catnaps once in a while, but on the special first day of school when he met his new students he fostered high hopes that none of them would put him to sleep.

“Hi there,” he said when everyone had gathered. He stole a quick glance at the checklist glowing now on his scroll; it appeared that a couple students hadn't arrived yet. The professor rolled his gleaming pink eyes. Would there be no-shows on the first day? “Computer science 101, then. I'm Ni Rensa Ryou, you can call me Ni. Some of the other teachers say I'm a shut-in,” he grumbled, raised his hands dramatically as if about to deny it. “...it's true. I deal with machines better than people, and not Chatworth's weapons of mass destruction. I'm not just boasting when I say I've got computers down, and before the end of the semester you're going to have them down too. Then the real fun can begin.”

Ni sauntered over to his desk and slouched at the computer. At the press of a button, every station in the class powered on. “I'm not gonna lecture ya all that often. You're here, you know what a space bar is, how to uninstall a program, and write a method. Log in using your last name and team name, you'll be prompted to make a password, and find your Student Assignments folder. Find the first slideshow and get on it. And if I catch any of you watching animated web series online, even good ones, I will silence your CPU faster than you can say, 'Oh, that's my uncle'.”

The assignment in question was a short in-workspace code-writing activity, in which the student was called upon to create two object classes capable of interaction with one another, one representative of the student him- or herself, and another representative of a Grimm of their choosing. When run, the program would need to choose a random action from the Grimm out of three different options the student creates, send it as a parameter to the student class, and display a random string out of three options saying how the student responded. It was open-ended and allowed for some creativity along with its technicality, which Ni felt was a good opener.
Uh, sure, Prince. I'll initiate with Ni, and then that will be all sixth periods started, and everyone who wants to post for sixth hour may do so.

I know how posting works forgive me if it isn't my best but it was a rush job, this is not my only focus I wanted to get a post in before I was warned pm to make a post or be left behind. Forgive me if I seem frustrated


I didn't actually say that, and I apologize if I gave off that impression. Take as much time as you need to get your post shipshape.

Hi there, @Awesomoman64. I see you watching.
