SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 25 Author Posted April 25 While Thursday is usually a little better for writing during the day than Wednesdays and Fridays, will see about today. I should be able to reply, but maybe not as frequently.
Warning Posted April 25 Posted April 25 Okay, I saw some new threads spawn up and I wonder... Should I just... Introduce my characters somewhere or is there an agreed pattern for roleplay? 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 25 Author Posted April 25 (edited) Yeah, you could start your own for now. We’ll have to figure out how much we break threads up as characters interact with each other, coming and going. Whether they join existing threads or start new ones. Multiple threads with the same character could be written at the same time but happening at different times in-story (or be ‘alternate versions’ of the character if someone wants to explore one of their characters going in different directions). Would have to keep in mind character development in one influencing another if there were multiple threads of the same version of a character. But will leave that up to players involved. Though if it is an alternate version, should probably somehow note it in the title. Edited April 25 by SataiRolePlayingGuy 1
Warning Posted April 25 Posted April 25 (edited) What I like to do is simply see it like a VN or a game. We have character introductions (If they are alone) and we can refer to them if we branch to other threads. Like a main threads where characters gather. I would post on such thread with a link to my character introduction so readers can see the root of where that character appears from. In short, I do not think that it would be an issue. Now if a character is directly relevant to an introduction, they can always step in there before branching. But yeah. It MIGHT sound confusing but it will make much more sense in action. We can always find out specific ways later but for a start, I think it would be good to spark some starting activity. Edited April 25 by Warning 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 25 Author Posted April 25 As this topic is getting longer, I set up a new one that people could optionally use to get specific stories started up. Including making suggestions for others, that they don’t have to do, but could think about. https://ecchidreams.com/community/topic/8107-story-request-topic/ 1
Chiyako Posted April 25 Posted April 25 @SataiRolePlayingGuy I do need to ask, who exactly is it that Ryan is spanking in that moment? Just to be sure I get it correct. 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 25 Author Posted April 25 Emi, to try to encourage her. Alexandrine was not in his reach, and he still wasn’t quite ready to make a move on her. 1
Warning Posted April 25 Posted April 25 Meanwhile, I'm thinking this alias thing may not be good for Mitsuko because she doesn't really try to be a super hero of sort. I know some magical girls DO have special names but some don't. One of my favorite for instance, Sakura, doesn't really use a code name. Meanwhile, Sailor Moon. XD But yeah. I don't feel like my Alias is that good for her. 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 26 Author Posted April 26 That is a fair point. Many would choose one, a mix of protecting people close to them, and to have a quieter ‘civilian’ life. But some might not care, or crave the attention from people knowing who they are. Ryan might not choose a traditional alias either. Though he will likely choose a girl’s name, which is basically the same thing in his case.
Warning Posted April 26 Posted April 26 I just noticed randomly the reference of Alexandrine and Jumi. Which is pretty much a "Legend of Mana" giveaway. (The former being a jewel). Jumi were the best. 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 27 Author Posted April 27 10 hours ago, Warning said: I just noticed randomly the reference of Alexandrine and Jumi. Which is pretty much a "Legend of Mana" giveaway. (The former being a jewel). Jumi were the best. I have played that, a long time ago, it was an interesting but random coincidence. I think I had found Alexandrine on a random name list way back when I picking her name. Jumi is just a name I like to use in various RPs. She may or may not be made into a proper character at some point.
Warning Posted April 27 Posted April 27 After taking hours to write my post, I think I'm good for a start. Had to sleep a long night before I even speak of it again. Hopefully, it wasn't too bad. 2 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 27 Author Posted April 27 I put up a picture of Jumi, transformed, in the galleries. No profile yet though. I figure her team is based in another region of Japan, how big the regions are, how many teams a given country has, probably varies. The regions are probably older than most countries. And barring islands, some could be in border areas, watching parts of two or three countries. She could be used in a number of small stories with various characters. She could potentially meet Mitsuko or Toshiro. She could run into some lesser enemies, maybe or maybe not a victim of them having some fun with her. 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 27 Author Posted April 27 Got a basic profile up for Jumi, will probably add more to it later. 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 27 Author Posted April 27 I'll see how easy it is to add Jumi to the existing polls soon. But we have someone new who will posting a profile in the near future. Going to wait until that is up and try to add both to them at the same time. 1 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 28 Author Posted April 28 Inviting more people. Anyone I have played with in the past who I think might be interested, and aren’t private only. Will see how many more players we get out of it. 2
Warning Posted April 28 Posted April 28 Maybe we can make this place super active. Things are now in motion that cannot be undone. (Or I wish.) Let's have more people join this magical adventure. 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 28 Author Posted April 28 Yeah, this is one that finally has a potential to have a number of stories going independent of me, first time in one of my clubs. I do have a little bit of an idea of what the one profile is going to look like, but waiting to see the details, and what if any character(s) she might be connected to/get connected to (I offered the option of being part of Jumi’s team, but will see if that happens). One other member might be making a character that may or may not be similar to one I’m playing with in a private RP, but it might take her a few weeks to have time to join in. The others, will see if they play or not. The rest of you can feel free to try to talk anyone into joining that you think might like it. 1 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 28 Author Posted April 28 We got another profile up now, from @ElieCapulet30 (don't worry about reading this whole thread, unless you want to). Now we get to figure her place in the story. What characters she might interact with, and what might happen to her (will try to update the polls a little later tonight). 1
Balthier Posted April 28 Posted April 28 I'm waiting to see what the dynamic between Zorn and Exzelcryth might be after they meet at some point down the line as well.
Warning Posted April 28 Posted April 28 My Mitsuko is set. Now I can't shake the feeling that I need an evil side character and since we have lot of demons, I might settle for an alien or space bound creature. Not sure about my options there but also since non-humans are supposed to be enemies of humanity, I'll have to think this one out. In due time. For now, I'm excited to see where this goes. 1
SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted April 28 Author Posted April 28 I put up a new poll. Since it looks like votes can't be edited, adding something new might not have worked. I remade the previous pairing polls (as one poll) for just Jumi and Elie. I would be up for putting Elie with Jumi, they could get into some short term trouble with demons/monsters. They could have some involvement with Mitsuko too. Any one else can make suggestions. Will wait to commit her to Jumi until we take a little time to see if anyone else wants to do something different. 1
