Current It's actually kind of annoying how easily franchises like Lost Planet can be spun off into PvE TPSs like EDF and HD2.

Thank goodness! For a second there I thought they were about to release a new Star Fox game.

It's hard to get the idea of a Lost Planet AU RP that incorporates elements straight out of Armored Core out of my head.

Why doesn't anyone come around here and IC-bait a Metal Slug RP? Sure they'll probably still bail like the rest, but at least the fans will enjoy that for a moment.

Greetings visitor! I hope you're having a good day! Whether you've seen me around the guild or not, I should admit that it's only been within year-6 of my time on this site that I've bothered to start work on this here "bio". I feel like I should apologize for not making it a higher priority much sooner, but lately I've adopted that "better late than never" mindset when it comes to introductions, and besides, I doubt there was much to tell in my early years anyway. I'm pretty much an amateur writer who got my start as a minor tag-along player in a fandom AU campaign ran by a small, close-nit remnant of a community formerly in association with a notable strategy-gaming youtuber. I'm being vague for brevity's sake. In the end, I value my first exposure to roleplaying as a personal learning experience more than anything, as I'm definitely the kind of person that sequesters themselves in any given community they find themselves in and RPG is certainly no exception.

That pretty much explains what I've been up to for the last several or so years, with only occasional public posts from me, as private 1x1 roleplays are easily where the lion's share of my attention goes to. Details regarding my particular interests and even approach as a prospective partner can be found in the interest check I update very rarely, but if you'd like to have a link to it or want to work with me in a similar capacity, then PMs are the best way to reach me. As for what you can expect in very broad terms, I'll say that I'm a 90s kid who'd grown up on Nintendo and Cartoon Network where, thanks to Toonami, I've developed an appreciation for the Japanese style of animation, a style that commonly influences my own creative endeavors to this day. That is in no way to say that I'm an avid watcher of anime and the like (I have my tastes and while that does sometimes coincide with what's current, it usually doesn't), just that I gravitate toward the ludicrous, extraordinary concepts and settings they commonly facilitate. That style aligns with what excites me creatively. That's the long and short of it. Exceptions do exist of course.

Alright, I'll get right on it.
@LiegeLord
Cecilia breathed a sigh of relief as James looked towards the ground before facing her again. "Of course. That would be great," her answer ending in a giggle as she wondered how many times he'll ask her about going with him on the hike. Her hands lowering, she subconsciously fiddled around with the bracelets on her right wrist. It felt as if she could be doing more for him. But perhaps if she worked towards getting James more friends, then maybe he could be happy for both of them. Her eyes lowered momentarily, but quickly rose to accompany the warm smile she gave him. For now, she was happy just to be with him, looking forward to the days to come.
@LiegeLord
Cecilia was visually taken aback at the revelation of the girl's death. She had no idea. She held her right wrist with her left hand, both over her chest. "I-I didn't know..." she started before shaking her head, not in the mood for any of her own excuses. "I shouldn't have mentioned her," she concluded, looking towards the ground. "You know... you don't need to just take my word for it... what I said..." she looked out and motioned towards their fellow campers. "I'm sure, if you gave some of them a chance, they'll come to see you the way I do."
@LiegeLord
Cecilia was contemplating the bond between James and Neric, when he seemed to ask the three questions out of nowhere. "W-what?" She was startled to hear that what she said earlier was being called into question. Was it really so hard to believe? "Of course I meant it," she stated as calmly as she could, though her words carried a sense of subtle sadness, her face lowering in like manner. "I don't care what others may think of you two. You both deserve to be happy just like everyone else. The girl you saved before knew it, right? Remember her?" Her eyes seemed to almost plead with him to remember the good they'd done.
@LiegeLord
Cecilia maintained her merry expression, remembering how he had mentioned before how he enjoyed swimming. She would have easily teased James about his aversion to heights if not for the fact that she shared that fear. In a way, it felt relieving that, should rock climbing or any such activity come up, she wouldn't be the only one afraid - although it didn't feel right to mention it. Her arms rested behind her back, her fingers twined together as she shifted between looking at James and at the surrounding area. "Do you swim often? I've only done it a few times for school, and only in swimming pools with clear water so I could see the bottom, never in a lake before."
@LiegeLord
Cecilia nodded, understanding, at least in essence, the nature of Jame's relationship with Neric. From context, it somewhat felt like Neric had an objection about either her, James developing friendships with others, or perhaps meeting new people in general. Such concerns seemed prudent given their background. Then again, Neric could just be uneasy about the natural dangers that come with wild areas like woods and such. She kinda hoped that was the case. James's question caught her attention once again. "Hmm? I-I haven't been to many places like this, but I'm kinda thinking of hiking, of course. Maybe rock climbing. Although the more I think about it, the less I think I'd be up for something like that," she said nervously near the end, kind of hoping there wouldn't be something that terrifying involved. "So... what do you think we'll be doing while we're here?"
@LiegeLord
Jame's response helped put Cecilia at ease, and she gave him a relieved smile. Her fears earlier seemed spot on: if she hadn't said something, Jame's would likely have seen her as just another person who's afraid of his gifts. "Sure, I'd like that," she said, brushing a few strands from her forehead. "I've been looking forward to seeing what this camp has to offer." She momentarily looked out into the trees, already building excited expectations of lush scenery.
@LiegeLord
Campers all around her began to rise from their seats and cluster together, converse among themselves and generally steal a few moments until the counselors lead the hike into the woods. Cecilia rose as well, taking advantage of the opportunity to take careful steps through the crowd, her mind racing, making a clear recitation of what she will say difficult. When she saw James, her pace slowed, leading to a full stop around four feet away from him. "H-hey James..." she tentatively greeted. She appeared preoccupied, worried about something. "Um, I just wanted to say I'm well... I'm sorry for leaving all of a sudden earlier. I..." She shook her head passively, her eyes downcast for a second. "It wasn't fair to you." She felt compelled to say more, although there was a lightness in her head and a redness in her cheeks as she did so. "You and Neric are... two of the most amazing people I've ever seen and I didn't think, for a second, that anyone would fail to see that... But for what it's worth, I'm glad you made it here." Cecilia stopped there, only hoping the meaning came through. It may not have been everything she would like to say, but it may do for now.
@Rex
Hello. First off, you're doing very well with the story. Keep it up. Secondly, I was hoping that maybe you could update your mentions at the beginning of your posts. I couldn't help but notice that Spinosaurus is still being mentioned, even though I believe he dropped out of the RP nine days ago (unless he came back and I wasn't aware of it).
Varen

@Noodles
"Well well, what have we here?" Varen raised an eyebrow and smirked as he stepped back into position, bracing for the encounter with the female attacker. His fighting style was better suited for handling armored opponents. However, when necessary (like now for instance), he would opt for a simple strategy: trying to maintain a clear distance and attacking whenever possible. His weapon afforded him more reach and he attempted a reaching thrust at her followed by an immediate diagonal sweep towards her upper torso. She was indeed swift and he realized, just a split second into it, that the second attack was already putting him in great risk. He needed to break off and implement the strategy, so the motion for the sweep transitioned abruptly to a dodge roll to the side, ultimately reducing the sweep's accuracy by about 30% compared to the initial thrust. Her glowing daggers made clear her intention to use a skill on him. Had he been caught by surprise or otherwise less mobile, he would have surely been caught by it. "Hehe, you're pretty cute," he bantered, grinning widely. "What's a girl like you doing with a guild like <<Laughing Coffin>>?"
