I wouldn't mind some art for LM or DF either. As Krotar said, nothing to over, but if ya had the time I'd appreciate it.

lol, of course, no problem. *salutes* be back soon with your sketches.

[Ender Rydel]

If it helps, for LM I can provide a picture of myself for reference. Seeing as LM's more or less my shameless self-insert character. :P

[zingo47]

already started a sketch, but it would help, yeah.

[lovelyAssistant]

Character Name: Hermit McNofriends Dana Blackwell
Age: 16
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Blood Color: Red, ofcourse. Are there supposed to be other colors? o.o
Appearance: Rather short (5'3"), emphasized by the fact that she usually slouches. Dana has long, straight dark brown hair, rather pale skin, and light brown eyes. She tends to wear fairly plain clothing- baggy t-shirts, blue jeans, and the like, but often in strange color combinations. This has nothing to do with eccentricity and everything to do with colorblindness; Dana doesn't care about her clothes matching, just comfort for long periods of sitting and reading/pestering chums. Dana wears sunglasses whenever she goes outside in daylight, as her eye condition makes her vision deteriorate in bright light.
Personality: Quiet but intense, her focus is usually very directed on whatever she is doing, to the exclusion of almost anything else. Dana is a big reader, and will read basically anything she can get her hands on (though she prefers epic fantasy and books about mythologies/spiritualism over anything else), and has thus amassed a vast knowledge of weird little trivia. Dana doesn't get out much, and doesn't have very good knowledge of social norms outside of what she's read. She can be rather blunt at times, but being such a heavy reader she is generally quick to pick up on subtle changes in people's chat that might indicate they're not being entirely forward with her.
Title: Shaman of Space
Chumhandle: greyscaleRecluse
Fetch Modus: Trivial Pursuit (item is randomly assigned a category when captchalogued; a question from that category must be answered in order to retrieve the item. Wrong answers result in wrong items being forcefully ejected.)
Strife Specibus: staffkind
Dreamer Status: Prospit
Planet: Land of Forest and Frogs
Brief Planet Description: The planet is covered in ancient forests, think Boreal but if they had been allowed to grow for thousands of years unchecked. The ground is thick and spongy with mast, and the trees tower almost impossibly high. There are low places where water collects, and the frogs also gather in these marshy areas.
Consorts: Crows
Character Background: >Be the hermit

You are now DANA BLACKWELL. You are sixteen years old, and would really rather just STAY INSIDE than anything else. You are QUIET but OBSERVANT, and tend to shy away from actual face-to face social interaction because it makes you NERVOUS.

Your INTERESTS include READING BASICALLY ANYTHING, especially things pertaining to MYTHOLOGY and STRANGE RELIGIOUS PRACTICES. You find these fascinating subjects, and have a special place in your heart for ANCIENT FUNERARY PRACTICES. Your ROOM reflects these passions, filled as it is with POSTERS of various artists' representations of mythological figures, and piles of UNRETURNED LIBRARY BOOKS. You know you'll get on that. Sometime. If you can ever force yourself to leave the house for long enough.

Speaking of your room, it's an incredible mess. You tend to strew things everywhere, putting things down wherever it's convenient rather than in any particular order, giving your room a chaotic element that would drive even some slobs up the wall. You seem to know where most of your stuff is, though, and are happy to keep your stuff in a perpetual state of chaos - it helps change things up, keep your life from getting too routine. Right. Also, it's comfortable.

Your UNCLE takes cares of you, though you say this in the loosest sense possible - he works most of the time, leaving you to your own devices. You sometimes have to do the cooking and laundry (not really a problem), or even the grocery shopping (more of a problem), but you don't mind too terribly; it's all necessary. You aren't particularly good at the cooking or cleaning, but you do your best, you guess. Your uncle tends to leave his STAFF COLLECTION just lying around, and you have to admit that you've played around with them a little bit. What can you say; even shut-in girls can have fantasies of being WARRIOR MONKS. But shhh, that's a secret.
Note: Dana's colorblindness isn't just run-of-the-mill red-green colorblindness; it's Dyschromatopsia, an incomplete form of Achromatopsia (i.e., she can't perceive colors, just shades of grey).

[Subrosian]

You're fine LA, don't be freaking out about it or anything.

Take care of your social obligations.

[Ender Rydel]

Here it is. Crappy quality cause I took it with my webcam: http://oi53.tinypic.com/w6y1ky.jpg

:P Yeah...I look pretty shitty. I'm not exactly the most photogenic person in the world. You can omit the mustache...I need to shave. The shaggy beard and silly hat would be a nice touch though,

[zingo47]

Got it. :I
actually just finished the sketch for draconianFury.

@Krotar Go ahead and be the hero. No one else seems to want to. XD
Armed with a SHITTY SKETCH, you trudge FORWARD towards your ULTIMATE DESTINY. The DESTINY to be THE HERO.

Nice. I'll let ya get to it then. :3

ninja'd. See edited above post.

[Ender Rydel]

Looks good. Guess ya missed the little wolf-ears on my hat though. That was sorta one of the reasons I wore it. No big deal though. xD

[zingo47]

Oh, wow, I completely did! XD I guess I just thought that they were things on the shelf?

Question!
Okay, so, now that we're near starting this rp up, there's one critical thing we must do.
Figure out.
Who knows who. *punched for rhyming*

Okay, this is it. Which of the humans/trolls know each other from the start of the story?

and yes, I know that the trolls don't contact them till later.
so, which humans know each other? Which trolls know each other? Or do all the trolls know each other already?

[Subrosian]

Well there's one confirmed contact for the humans and that's arbitersAnimosity and lupineMediator.

I figure the Trolls would probably know each other somehow.

As for the humans, it would make sense for the server/host player combinations to know each other unless we throw in some kind of plot related event where they meet up in a social network for Sburb or something.

[zingo47]

yes, that works, I suppose, but I want another flowchart!
FLOWWCHAARRTTT

[Subrosian]

Another one? Someone else make it this time, I'm trying to work on something else for the moment.

[Ender Rydel]

Not it. :P

[zingo47]

I don't do charts, I do DRAWINGS. Sorry, not it.

However, I am starting a memo to discuss this. Get everyone you can onto it so that we can decide.
BoxedInnRP_Discussion <- memo

[Subrosian]

yes, that works, I suppose, but I want another flowchart!
FLOWWCHAARRTTT

So we decided that we'll base the Human relationships on the people we know. So with that rule in mind, I know everyone except for LS.

So this will be how the server/player link goes.

LM > AA > TA > UH > LS > GR and back to LM.

AA knows LM, TA, UH, and GR (because I know LA) while LM knows LS and UH. So AA can successfully server TA and LM can tell UH that LS needs a server, then I can tell GR that LM needs a server.

Confused yet?



If that clusterfuck makes no sense, maybe I can try to make it make sense.

• LM: Knows AA, UH, and LS. LM tells UH that LS needs a server player. LM is AA's server player.
• AA: Knows LM, TA, UH, and GR. AA tells GR that LM needs a server player and tells TA that UH needs a server player and tells LM to tell LS that GR needs a server player. AA is TA's server player.
• TA: Knows AA. TA is UH's server player.
• UH: Knows LM and AA. UH is LS' server player.
• LS: Knows LM. LS is GR's server player.
• GR: Knows AA. GR is LM's server player.

[zingo47]

Yay for information clusterfuck!
LETS
GET
THIS
BITCH
OFF

GROUND
YEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH *shot so dead*

[Subrosian]

Okay, I want to take a vote to keep the Role Play open or closed. For now I shall start the Role Play and make it closed, but if it gets enough votes to remain open then I shall change it.

So all in favor of keeping it closed, speak up. All in favor of keeping it open, do likewise.

Votes

• Open - Krotar, Meira - 2
• Closed - Subrosian, zingo47 - 2

[zingo47]

I vote for it to be closed.

[Subrosian]

First post has been made.

The RP is go!

EDIT: Not on the phone anymore.

[Krotar]

I vote open. All should have a chance to help make this hapen. :heropose:
