When are you going to add the ability to scroll down on our sigs.

@Rare

The question I have about signature image discussions, large signature images, and the ability to scroll down is 'Why do you need such a large area for a signatures in the first place?' A signature section is really meant for a few short links, a quote or saying and possibly a signature image. Having an area that scrolls down for 10 or 20 lines really does push beyond the boundaries of what a conventional signature section should contain and if you need that much information there are better ways to display that content. First thing I would use is the Bio section as that seems to be an appropriate area for listing such info. I dunno, it just seems silly having mini forms within a webpage with individual scrollable sections for people who wish to announce everything to the world when it's not needed.

Character Help

I had a similar character for an RP ages ago. (Radiation poisoning and needed blood transfusions in order to live) This character would basically knock out the person and steal their blood like a vamp, but through the use of an IV needle. This left the option for if I wanted to kill the character in question or just let them live whereas your trait seems to rely on death. Another option is that over time you can add disadvantages like blood poisoning or many other medical conditions that may weaken your character. Let's say that they take the liver of someone dying of cancer. That liver may replenish mana but it could also create a very sick individual. It's similar to what @oakman mentioned about the sight of blood, but you can play that as Joker like card to make your character physically weak. And yeah, ditch the shock collar. It just raises questions like, "Why has he got a shock collar?", "Why not get it removed?", "What happens when the batteries run dry?" or "Is a little pain worse than dying?". You've got an awesome skill that on it's own you can play with quite well as it's able to mix health, power, and mana into one bundle that has to be managed. Generally the weaker you can make your character the more you can develop their personality and nature.

Supernatural: Age of The Hunt

Name: Jeremy Bolt Appearance: Most of the time his clothing usually consists of a corporal hat, polo shirt, loose fit jeans and a set of skate shoes. He has a large Celtic Cross tattoo on his back as well as a set of tattoos on both of his knuckles (the word "Lamb" being on his right hand, and "Goat" being on his left) Skills: - Agility: Due to his young body but longer than normal lifespan Jeremy has had the time to keep extremely fit. In the past he has been able to chase down some of the faster demons and can run for an extended period of time if needed. - Fast shooter: Carrying around large weapons was extremely difficult within Australia due to their heavy gun laws. Because of this he decided to carry around something a lot smaller that could be concealed and naturally learnt how to draw them quickly in order to take the first shot during a fight. - Mechanically minded: For many years Jeremy worked as a mechanic and learnt many of the little trick in how to repair and maintain various forms of machines. He also picked up on some of the unorthodox skills like hot-wiring a car and rigging explosives. - Explosives: Part of being mechanically minded allowed him to understand the many different types of explosives that are available as well as assembling some small ones. Equipment: - A dual set of Beretta 92s containing silver rounds and blessed with holy water - A silver butterfly knife that he straps to his ankle - A few ingredients for some simple explosives - 1969 Honda CL350 K1 Scrambler How you became a hunter: After experiencing the murder of his witch girlfriend and breaking free of her spell he eventually moved over to the US for both a fresh start in a new country and to continue his hunting. Gender: Male Age: Jeremy looks young for his age (Mid 20s) but that's also because he cannot remember what year he was actually born in. He does however remember the Sydney Harbour Bridge being built in 1923 so it's estimated that he's at least 100 years old. Personality: Jeremy is an Australian. He has an bit of an attitude to suit his look and is often called cheeky, reckless, or just simply a smart arse but he is also loyal and will stand by those that help him. He does however view his life as lucky as he has been given a chance to try and set things right. Bio: Most people that enter into a relationship say that it feels like being under the spell of love. Jeremy however experienced that in a literal sense of that statement rather than the metaphorical version. It turned out that his last girlfriend was a witch and she had a real obsession with him, to the point where she created a love potion mixed with a longevity spell and secretly gave it to him one evening during a dinner. After being poisoned he immediately fell in love with the girl and to her knowledge they were to live happily ever after, forever. This never happened though because many, many years later some hunters managed to track the witch and kill her. Without the potion and magic poisoning Jeremy he began to regain his true thought pattern and was disgusted by what she had done to him. By spending time with his new hunter allies he learnt about the many creatures and beings throughout the world and decided to try and do his part in setting things right. Other Information: 100 years of chain smoking is a rather difficult habit to break...

Games you wished existed/Video Game Ideas

Pretty much anything set in the Warhammer: 40,000 universe other than what we have now. The Dawn of War series has been out for a while, and I honestly haven't played Space Hulk, and Space Marine is aging. Other than that, a lot of the recent releases with 40K have been pretty...meh. Warhammer 40K is a great universe for pretty much any genre: strategy, action, RPG, hell, even a more adventure-oriented game (ala Telltale Games) could get pulled off. It's a versatile universe for gaming. Think the concept I'd like to see be done with it would pretty much be Dragon Age: Warhammer 40K. That'd make me cry tears of joy. That, or a Total War: Warhammer 40K.

@OneEyedChurro

Check out Angry Joe's vid on Eternal Crusade: [Link] It's only Pre-Alpha, but damn it looks promising if they can pull it off! 500vs500 Planetside style of gameplay in 3rd person.

Kohl is accepted.

I forgot where I was since I been waiting too long for specific replies, we have 6 characters but only 7 posts in IC... That and I saw a small one paragraph reply that put me a bit off, followed 7 days later by a huge reply then We seem to be too few or more like it basically just you and Mora

@Aura Lodestone

I understand your view, we do have another character though through Kohl so hopefully it'll start to pick up a bit as his character is a Children of Umbra follower. I know in my post I tried to incorporate at least 2 of the other players into a bit of it so they have something to do. With this being the advanced section, I understand that it says 2 paragraphs minimum but it makes it hard as I don't want to carry a story, but rather see what ideas you can bring forth.

PM sent just to ask a few questions

I need to stop biting my nails. Throw some advice at me

Get some tin snips and cut off your fingers. That'll stop it for sure. ;)

Supernatural (Having seen the show is not required)

Got a question, can we have any powers at all? Similar to how I believe Sam had some powers (not that I can remember them but I'm not talking about Superman or Spiderman like powers)

@NuttsnBolts

Well I more this to be a human rp although I did say before if you can write it well as a cs you could maybe be a skinwalker or other monster from the show who decided to be a hunter rather than evil.

@Razqua

That's cool. Just wondering how far you would like us to push before you believe it gets OP. :)

Free, Casual, and Advanced Roleplays... and Medium

Free, Casual, Advanced is at least in my view similar to difficulty settings (ie: Easy-Medium-Hard) and one's ability to enter into said difficulty. This isn't a way to demoralise people and say, "you're not skilled enough for Advanced", no, this is more to guide people on the expectations and ease of entering to their chosen roleplay. I just think you're getting mixed up on what level you would like to enter and you're not seeing what it is that you're looking for when you're checking out the threads. A casual Roleplay is generally a minimum of two paragraphs and some people will want to post more. I know that I personally like to add in several paragraphs in my posts so I will only ever look in the Casual and Advanced sections for Roleplays. :)

Supernatural (Having seen the show is not required)

Been several years since I've seen the Supernatural series (Blame the stupid time slots for the show airings) but I always enjoy that style of genre/theme. Things that are dark with people struggling against odds... and a bit of magic. It's also why I like watching Grimm or even the movie Hansel and Gretel witch hunters. ;) So yes, I'm interested and if the storyline is decent you'll have me hooked. :) Got a question, can we have any powers at all? Similar to how I believe Sam had some powers (not that I can remember them but I'm not talking about Superman or Spiderman like powers)
