The Fourth Dimension: Yet Another Concept Check

Now I want to start a DnD session badly.

@Teknonick

D&D is super awesome, there are great online sites such as Roll20 where you can find obline sessions looking for players, of couse you should at least have an idea of how to play.

@Unraveller

Does having an idea, but not knowing count? :3

The Fourth Dimension: Yet Another Concept Check

Thank you for your dedicated interest! (Please make two characters, pleeeease!)

Your Question

With energy, your'll be able to feel peoples emotions, like normal. But your'll have more control over this. Plus, your'll be able to control 'engery', heat, cold, some third type that can't be described. So, imagine simply throwing fireballs and stuff! Just, not... fireballs, more like energy balls.

4D rant

Energy is in real life, though most people don't believe in it. I'll simply explain it as... when you look at someone, how do you know that they're angry? Other than their facial features. If you had someone stand in front of you, and you couldn't see their specific features, how do you know they're angry? I'm sure that's happened to you before. Or, someone looks happy, but they... feel... angry. Or they're about to be angry. Science has actually explained there are auras, and there's scientific proof that all living beings give off auras (Dang it. I always thought it was cool to not know, and keep it as 'magic'. :( Oh well, at least now I can get scientific help to teach me to see auras better than I already can. xD) In the roleplay, I can't really explain the fourth dimension very well. I'll explain the visual, as I've seen a video representation of it. The fourth dimension is the same as the third in every way, but one (Not in the RP though, it's close, but there's a few more extra magical stuff.) In the first dimension, there are two directions. Back and forth. A straight line. The second dimension get's more complicated, with four directions. Forward, back, left, and right. We humans see two dimensions, and don't even see 3d. It's just we perceive 3d as we can move our three dimensional bodies in our three dimensional world, and get to see other perspectives of objects as we, or they, move around. The third dimension is the one we know of the most, up, down, left, right, forward, and back. We can't see three dimension... you might think we can, but we can't. An easy example of this, is close one eye, hold it shut with your hand, and walk around your house. Things look different, right? Slight differences... looks almost flat, right? We can't see 3d, because we can't see an ENTIRE 3d being at one time! If you hold paper in front of you, you see the front. If you hold it at an angle, you can see multiple sides, AND the front. If you hold it on it's side between your nose, you can see the sides, the front, and the back... not not the other side. And, you're seeing the front and back with multiple eyes, so you wouldn't even see that much with one eye. The fourth dimension get's a little trickier, as you can't describe it. Yes, here we go... it has six directions! Up, down, left, right, forward, back, BLAH, and BLUH. BLAH and BLUH is IMPOSSIBLE for humans to comprehend... we just can't fathom it! Can you? No. It doesn't exist, does it? Not even possible! Well, it's there. We don't know where, or in what form, or how, but it's there. We can only assume fourth dimensional beings would naturally see in 3d... that means seeing our ENTIRE BODY at one time! Seeing our inners, out outers... everything at once! Creepy, eh? Plus, they would be able to perceive the fourth dimension, the BLAH and BLUH directions. Plus, since their bodies would also be made out of materials in these two new directions, they would also be able to move in those directions as well. Let's go back. 1d. See it. A straight line. Left. Right. Nothing else. Now, 2d. A small square on your screen. Stretch it, make it a circle. Now, make 3d... you can make a full sized cube, stretch it, make a rectangle in your mind. Make it an orb (Kinda hard one...), make it all these wonderful shapes! Now, 4d, make a cube. A simple cube. And imagine you can stretch it... but it's still a 4d cube! As you stretch it, parts disappear, parts reappear, and there's always some gap between some of the sides and faces. If we could see 4d, even for a milisecond, we would see it for the rest of our lives. This is why I cannot fully explain it, as it's impossible as 3d beings. A 2d being can't imagine up and down. But, a 3d being can move that object into the 3rd dimension, and it will become fully aware of it for the rest of it's life. It might try to explain it, but it won't be able to to others. A 4th dimensional being might do that to us... but why? It would either A: be cruel. B: be scary. C: ALIEN ABDUCTION! No, I'm kidding on that last one. If aliens are real... they probably wouldn't be fourth dimensional. Now, in my religion, we actually believe in ghosts, and fairies, and magic, and all sorts of stupid crazy stuff like that. We don't believe in this next part, but it's cool to think about. Ghosts, and fairies... what if they're simply fourth dimensional beings? It would makes sense, since they can change their shape and form to LOOK 3d, so we can actually comprehend them. But, where do they go afterwards? Why doesn't absolutely everyone see them all the time? That's simple. Walk in BLAH or BLUH direction... even a FRACTION of it... and they disappear. If you're flat, and you can't see up or down, EVERY other creature in your plane of existence has to be either in front, to the sides, or behind you. If they're up or down, your'll never know they're there for the rest of your life. You might even think they're ghosts! Here's a picture I found that's a 4th dimensional cube. Or, a 3d cube made to LOOK 4d. I'm sorry, ignore this video real quick. I can't find the right one. This one is a bad one, since it simplifies the 4th dimension as time... which is false. A video I found. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MN4KC_zlW4g This here is the real video. This video is amazing, and can get you to understand much better. Just keep in mind the spinning 4d objects are only ever moved in 3d, so they look 3d, and never 4d. They just look extremely funky. But it is as close as we can ever get to seeing 4d. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rG6aIVGquOg

I hope I didn't say too much, so I gave you two options to read. The second didn't really answer your question though....

Code Lyoko: XANA's Return

I can throw you an event after you have your character go outside. Odd and Ulrich actually aren't the types to write a diary. Both Yumi and Jeremy have actually mentioned that they wrote diaries, specifically in the show. Odd, he hates studying, and doing things out of his way. Why would he waste time writing about the past, when he can be doing something in the present!? Ulrich wouldn't either, since he would be busy trying to catch up on his grades so he wouldn't fall behind. Plus, he usually goes and trains himself to let out his emotions. I do have something planned about Kiwi though, but I'm not exactly sure how it would work. I already know Odd's sister would have come to get Kiwi, though I'm not sure whether to have Odd get in trouble for Kiwi being discovered. Maybe since all the rooms were messy, Jim didn't even discover the dog, and Odd's sister saved Kiwi at the last second, and still managed to make sure he didn't get caught. I plan on our character's actions with this, to go to Odd's house, and some interaction with Kiwi. I'm not sure exactly yet, but I think it's going to end up be dog sitting, and Kiwi goes nuts or something. xD As for getting you into it... maybe not yet. After the first return to the past, there's going to be a big thing happening. I'm sure both you and Gamer know what I mean, who comes back, and that should bring interaction. Plus, the other guys show up around the same time, so that's more interaction as well. Oh, and please don't say who's coming back, or who the other guys are. I'd like to keep them a secret to the newbies here. ;).

Gotcha.

The Fourth Dimension: Yet Another Concept Check

So we officially only need two more people now, right? I don't know if you can force people to not leave their computers unless somehow you cast some spell of binding on them or something.

@RawrgnatheBloodfridge

Right! I'll be posting my other character at some point, but I'm not sure it counts since I'd be controlling a ton of NPCs... and they don't count, eh?

Stuff

@Teknonick

I feel like you'd be driving a white van, on either side is a poorly spray-painted, "Free RP" I shudder thinking about it.

@Unraveller

It's actually a golden van. With a window that opens up and has a bunch of DnD board games sitting there, with a factory-made sign saying "Free DnD sessions! Join us, it's free! We're not going to force you!" and two armed men standing on either side of the window with M4A1s. Muhahahaa.... Now I want to start a DnD session badly. I've never played other than that one time I kicked the Mimic... oh, there should be Mimic Buckets. Then I could kick the Mimic Bucket. xD "Another one bites the Tek! Oh! Oh! Oh! Another Mimic bites the Tek!"

Scontro tra Titani | From the Depths RP

Faction Name: Pirates of the Honor History: Pirates of the Honor used to be ruthless pirates, called by the name of Black Death. Michael attacked a strong village one day, who fought back so much, he lost most of his ships. He met with the owners of the village, who ended up being extremely friendly, and decided they wanted to help Michael. They taught Michael to use his army and power for good, especially since they have a common enemy. They joined forces, and have been rebuilding ever since. The combined might of the pirates, with the honor and knowledge of the village make for a tough alliance! Faction Colors: Black, White, Red. Faction Flag: PICTURE TO BE MADE. I'm not sure yet. Ideas? Faction Ships: INCOMPLETE. ENTIRELY INCOMPLETE! NO WHERE NEAR EVEN COMPLETE!

Mass Carrier

INCOMPLETE. The Mass Carrier is a massive pirate ship, without cannons. They have giant magical hands lined up where the cannons would be, and giant boxes near for them to lob. The crates contain High-Flying Biplanes, and smaller (UNMADE) ships. Through a device, crew can gather around a crate, and be zapped to be shrunken and teleported into the crate with the ship. The and then grabs the crate, and throws it out less than a hundred feet, letting it explode and release the ship and crew inside. Ships are pre-packed before battle, and re-packed after returning to the Carrier for a few hours.

Boarding Galleon

INCOMPLETE. The Boarding Galleon is a massive ship, though much smaller when compared to the Carrier. It has thirty guns on either side of the ship, ten above, ten below, and ten on the bottom deck. It also has four swivel cannons at the front of the ship. It's speed isn't the fastest, but it's hulls are thick, and can take a mighty blowing.

Defensive Frigate

INCOMPLETE. The Defensive Frigate is another large ship, though nothing compared to the Carrier and Galleon. It has a deck, and a single floor below it. On top it has six cannons on either side, and below it has six cannons on either side. It has no swivel cannons, though it has (MADE UP NEW CANNON TYPE) which is good for disabling enemy ship's movement, forcing them to be sitting ducks. The Frigate itself is slow, but faster when compared to the Galleon and Carrier. It's goal is to circle slowly, chipping away at enemy defenses, and hold out for as long as possible.

High-Flying Biplane

INCOMPLETE. The High-Flying Biplanes are small, agile, and deadly planes. They have two mounted turrets on either wing, and a double-barrel gun stationed in the back seat for the co-pilot. A single shot at these planes can send them hurling down to the ground, but their speed and agility make them hard to hit. They're easily mass-produced, for lack of any hit points.

How many RPers would you say we need gamer?

Scontro tra Titani | From the Depths RP

Hmm, better interest check than on the MCForums. I'm more interested now. Consider me a member already! I'll throw something up later today. I'm going with an honorable medieval pirate theme. By the way, what kind of land is there? What kind of bases may we have? What are we allowed to start out with, or will you decide that for us?

Code Lyoko: XANA's Return

Hey Sam! Well, these diary's are usually special things. I have about two planned, both with different information specified to move our characters along. If you want to find a diary... you can head outside and notice Yumi's little brother and his friend. If you remember the scene from before, you can reenact all of it yourself. Yumi's little brother's friend was crying and upset, while the brother was trying to convince him otherwise. We could change it up a little bit and have them mention that the friend found her diary, but didn't mention him in it xD

The Fourth Dimension: Yet Another Concept Check

tell them they can't leave.

Teknonick

Well, gee, I hope you aren't planning on holing us hostage!

Who said it hasn't started. *Waves gun in the direction of the truck* Get in already, I don't have all day!
