When do you guys want to start the IC? Are you ready tonight?
Nevermind. Have fun guys.
Byee! Sorry you couldn't join us for whatever the reason.
Don't worry about it buddy. If I feel the explanation's not good enough, I will tell them. I haven't been able to thoroughly look through some of the most recent but you don't have to worry about it.
Very well, I'll leave it up to you then. I suppose I'm just being a little bit of a control freak. Lol I tend to get rubbed the wrong way by certain styles of character writing. I don't want to make a scene though, so I'll let it go. ^_^
Yeah don't worry! Potter's a great writer. I know her well and I've seen her use those powers before. I know she limits herself well. Great characters everyone!
My character, Josephine, has the last name of Gray because she is Terry and Xander's sister. These are Penguin's character's. This was the last name we planned to use early on, so it was coincidental that there was another character with it. Many people in the real world have the same last name. Additionally, it's open for interpretation because their capabilities are still being discovered. Granted, they are broad; however, what the power is, is the name given. Their limits are posted. They're not demigods or anything major, yet they are restrictive, of course, in what they can do.
Hmm, I was unaware that your character was actually related. In that case, I have no qualms. As for the explanation, or lack thereof, I must say that while I understand your point about them still discovering their abilities, I still have to suggest that you put a bit more of a specification in your description. Otherwise people may assume, for example, that your necromancy character can talk to, summon, and control just about any kind of undead being or creature, and your molecule manipulation character, for all we know, can pretty much control anything under the sun. Your limitations are not really explaining the full limits. It would be like if I said, "My character has magic" and then put a limiter of "his mind magic doesn't work on humans and his elemental magic isn't too powerful". It leaves a lot of question open, that's all I'm saying. I'm not meaning to criticize here, I simply wish to understand what exactly they are able to do or not do in those fields. I don't need details, but an explanation would go a long way.
Don't worry about it buddy. If I feel the explanation's not good enough, I will tell them. I haven't been able to thoroughly look through some of the most recent but you don't have to worry about it. Speaking of which, @Nuttynad, what do you mean by holes? I'm having trouble understanding.
Okay I think this is enough interest :) @Subject Zero uhmm it depends what are the two powers? http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76876-riverwood-academy/ooc
yep! he has made one.
JSUK I'm female :)
The minimum is a paragraph at least, as stated in beginning post. @Penguin (I just want to add the TheMagical in front of your name so much!), I will be throwing up my CS in a day or so to allow my brain to think of everything I need to do. DO I need to pm you it or just post in the character part?
you can just post it!
Name:Terraline Gray Nickname: Terry Gender: Female Age: 16 Brief Personality: Depending on the situation, Terraline can leave the impression of either the nicest person or the most stubborn person you've ever met. Despite being quite the introvert, she can be caring and kind to those she cares for. Terry has always been on the quiet side. She's not very trusting of others so she chooses to keep her mouth shut until she feels the need to speak up. She is the type to open up the more she gets to know people. It takes time to earn her trust. Those who do get to know her learn fast that she's very stubborn and very sarcastic. She is bull-headed and nothing will change her mind once she's set on something. Her temper can be struck easily despite her kind nature. Terry is not very patient and will do things without thinking sometimes. She's reckless and has to remind herself to stop and think often. Ability: Telekinesis: User can influence/manipulate/move matter with their mind Limits to Ability: Effective only with objects within sight. It also takes a long time for her to master picking up large things like cars and truck into the air. Age admitted into Riverwood: 16 Background: The youngest of three children, Terraline was born into an average household. However her father was not around for a good portion of their lives. Betraying their mother on more than one occasion, she grew to learn that you truly can't trust anyone-- even your own family. Her sister Josephine was never quite right. The girl seemed intent on making everyone's lives miserable. She was simply insane. School was awful because of her and it was a struggle to keep the few friends she had. Meanwhile her brother Xander was a bit more normal. Seemingly kind and thoughtful to everyone, he was very charismatic. He could charm even the most stubborn of people. Terry always thought something had not sat right with his brain either. She turned to music and art for an escape from her loneliness and she had been content with staying up in her room drawing until one day. Other: She has a cat named Luna. Name:Xander Gray Gender: Male Age: 20 Brief Personality: Xander is seemingly very mysterious. He doesn't give much information about himself to anyone yet can easily get people to like him. Charming and charismatic, he's known to be flirty when he wants to be. Xander's a natural born leader and can sway people with words. He may act sweet but his own interest is himself. He's very arrogant and smug in reality. Even with a very high temper, he tends to hide his emotions and put on a cool, collected demeanor. Ability: Teleportation Limits to Ability: Electricity can stop him from teleporting, he can only teleport to places he has seen or been before. Age admitted into Riverwood: 20 Background: Xander has known about mutants for a long time. He knew his parents were mutants. He knew they had attended a secret school he'd go one day when they came to get them. He had used his ability a few times but thanks to the scattered locations, he was very difficult to detect. He's further along than most people are upon arriving at Riverwood. With a hidden agenda, he finally decides to purposely teleport around the house in hopes of the school detecting their location but also with the knowledge that they would not be the only ones to detect them, risking both his sisters and his parents lives.
@Caits @Lord Santa It seems like Cait's character is more thought based while Lord Santa's character has to do with sensing objects. It's a bit close but it seems to me they are not the same thing. Lord Santa maybe elaborate ? @Kirra I think you should play the character you think you'd enjoy the most. Forget what everyone else is doing and do what you will enjoy :)
Is there still room?
Yeah! I tend to just let everyone in before the RPG begins since half the people vanish for some reason. Usually they leave a nice number behind haha.
@Snarlfulblast It's cool. I'm in school too so I'm more active on weekends.
