Current Think I'm gonna finally get to RPing here. Don't know if I'm gonna commit, don't know where to start, and don't know what I'm gonna do, but I'm gonna do it.

I've had Johnny Cash on my mind all day. Can't get "When the Man Comes Around" out of my head. Tempted to let it influence some writing or make it a character's "theme"

I'm a bit scattered brained lately, so if I need to respond to a roleplay response, just remind me, I could've forgotten.

Finally done with the college semester, so I decided to treat myself to a expensive burger and a walk on the beach

Bio

Hello, I am Patches

I roleplay as a hobby, as well as designing OCs to be used in various types of roleplays. No matter the setting, I believe I have one just for the situation.

Ah, the kids are fine. Teaching children has its ups and downs, such as the ability to be a bit childish myself when it comes to lessons. She never knew why she choose such a job. Maybe it was the one job where her motherly nature and her love of knowledge could find a happy medium. Other than that, things are going well for me, a bit too slow for my tastes. This is a nice change of pace,I might add.

Do you have any wine? she asked, a bit hesitant. She loved the taste, it eing one of the few alcoholic beverages she drank. But to drink while the country was under prohibition? It felt so criminal. Was it alright when she was in the presence of criminals? Was it worse...? ~How humorous~ She thought to herself.

Every one of Wingate's outfits looked like they constituted as formal dress. As someone who cared almost too much about her appearance, she did her best to look great everyday. As she made her way through the Grapevine, she made sure to greet those she passed by, a wave here, a hello there, it was best to be polite when you're a guest at someone's place.

Greetings, Miss Barlow. she said, setting her dufflebag aside. It made a quiet clinking noise as it touched the ground, the various tools jumbling against each other. "I must say, that this outfit suits you. You should go for the formal look more often.
@Ember Storm
Gishka? Gregor rubbed his chin, If anything, he's talking about someone from the Gishka Empire. They're a country near Xiao. They still have a emperor ruling them, I've heard. Think the U.M. has a few members from there. Stone Magic is there specialty... That much I know.

@MercuryNH
As she would make her way back, her little pickpocket would go unnoticed... Then, a guard would approach her. A large, beastkin man, rough, rhino like skin covering his exposed arms.

As Mercury would make her way back to the 3 guys, he walked in front of her, cutting off her path. "Excuse me, miss... A moment of your time?" As he stood in front of her, there was a slight sway to his stance, the scent of alcohol on him. Not quite drunk, but slightly inebriated. A slight smile was on his face, as if the charm the woman "Can you, uh... Come with me?"

@hefewy@Ember Storm
"Shit... Our pickpocket is in a bit of trouble." Gregor said, biting his lip, trying to act casual, hoping she wasn't seen. He waited to see things play out, not blowing his cover yet Guys, we need to come up with a plan B here if this gets worse.

As the three would watch, another situation was approaching the three. The owner of the villa, Gustrag, as well as a guard, was steadily approaching the three.




@Nashie
As Johnny got ready, two guards burst in through the room, weapons ready. One of them fired off a burst of stone rune based ammo at him; not waiting to shout things at him or tell him to halt.

@Ember Storm
...And with Astrid to suddenly join him, the guards didn't look all too unprepared. Tough looking gear, dangerous looking rifles fitted with state of the art runes, three in total entered the room. One laying surpressing fire on Johnny, the other two taking aim at Astrid as she entered the room.

Despite all their gear, one of their most distinguishing features was the emblem over their hearts, one that the guards at the party lacked; the symbol of a skull with a crown, the symbol of the Children of Kodo'Yim.

@Blizzardofoz123
Thanks Kordan! Yoshimi said as she made her way over to the remaining guard, ready to take him out. With the cat creatures distracting him, she hit him with a solid punch to the ribs, staggering him and sending him stumbling away, coughing. Grabbing the man, she held him down.

Yoshimi had never seen magic like that before. Was it some form of Mist Rune? No way... It was too free formed. It had to be from an Amalgamate of sorts.

Kordan! She shouted, not wanting to be the only one beating answers out of a man Forget about them, Johnny and the lady have it! Help me out here.
Force of habit i suppose, she said, playing with one of her hair drills. She just can't help herself sometimes. Then it is settled, I will see you there, my dear.




Wingate made her way to the Grapevine, a dufflebag full of various tools useful for this kind of thing; brushes, chisels, and even a crowbar. She felt a bit cautious about going to these kinds of places, she couldn't let her students know she frequently hung out with the White Teeth, but at the same time, she couldn't resist a dig like this.
"A tomb of a hero of sorts will very well unlock a lot of information about Isz's culture and history. If they were buried with their weapons, we could maybe find a Isz Weapon that collectors so love to find." Or for all they knew, it could just be an ordinary tomb. But she had hope, and she couldn't say no to Lucille's adorable face and attitude.

But nevertheless But I will be there sharp, I have a habit of coming a bit early. I will bring my archeological tools and some food for the boys. Whenever she was surrounded by a large group of people, adults or children, her motherly side always had a habit of coming out; packing lunches, bringing snacks, even if it's a group of grown men that she's working for.
Er... @tex
I'm sorry for constantly shooting down your ideas, but you need a brand to cast magic. It's how you indicate who's a Caster and who isn't. You can't cast magic without a brand, even with using runes. Other than that, his personality and backstory is fine, other than his lack of a brand
@tex
Okay okay, let's see
For one it seems a bit too much to give him access too all 6 magic types, especially when it's been established that having too many runes can lead to a risk of amalgamation. You'd have to restrain him to the most basic of abilities with the bow or lower the number of runes it uses. Summoning it out of nowhere is out of the question. My suggestion would be to give him a light brand and have the bow be a product of his powers, but that would lose the runes engraved on it.
The talking cat might have to go. While animals are capable of magic, they'd require a storm rune to allow speech, since with storm comes with the ability to manipulate sound.

@Jensoman
That works. His clothes seem a bit modern day for the early 1900s time period Kokotha is in, but it gives me an idea of what he looks like

@Jensoman@tex
Overall, my main complaint with both of these is, and don't take this the wrong way, but they seem a bit silly for the world? The world of Kokotha isn't dark and serious but it is grounded in reality to an extent.
Not really a criticism per say, more of an observation and to give you a tip to try and not go overboard with the silliness
I'll pm you the discord link in due time

@Jensoman
Not entirely sure that character will work. The body rune and most rune works, but I'm not sure about the village being destroyed or a new country being introduce; you'd have to run the country by me first and what it's culture is like after all. The bottomless bag and magic clothes thing also don't seem doable with the magic of Kokotha
Ah sorry for the wait, I was asleep. Awake now and able to communicate
If you want I can send a invite to the server, right now it's a bit difficult since I'm not at my computer , but I can manage
Hmmm... Well, the teacher job doesn't always cut it when it comes to pay, plus I can't turn down your group's stylish charm. She said as she inspected the photo, putting on a pair of librarian style glasses, recognizing a few more words off the bat. Now is it a tomb, a temple, or a ruin...? From the looks of it, it is the first. The people of Isz always made a new temple and a new tomb for each of their rulers, after all, never putting them in the same location; I suppose they never heard of the phrase "waste not, want not"

Playing with a lock of her hair, hair that she put so much care and attention into, she put down her glasses and gave a short translation, The runes in that photo translate literally to "A tomb belonging to a hero who isn't remembered." A less literal translation would be "A Tomb of Forgetten Hero"
