Shengstuck: How many threads can one rp possibly NEED (OOC)

[Tamaratan]

OKAY GUYS, LETS MAKE THIS HAPPEN.

I'll be notifying everyone once the new IC post is up-- from now on, you will be required to post at least once a month! Acceptions can be made for certain circumstances, but "i don't wanna" is not acceptable. Pre-medium, you will probably be replaced. Post-medium, I will be killing your character. <u>

(also everything after this point is kinda lifted from BS's post sorry,,,, )

Your name is Murisa Fuscus and you are ix sweeps old. You are a lowly redblood, living on the edges of society and as such you have become a SURVIVOR. You RUMAGE around dumps for food and supplies just to keep living, as your hive was TRASHED by some DAMNED BLUEBLOODS. The bastards turned it into a gutted and burned out husk, barely habitable. You think they can all go die. Not that you’d ever say that to their face. It’d go against your strong SURVIVAL INSTINCT. Anyway, you rebuild your Hive in the mazes that make up the Alternian SEWERS. It’s nasty, but safe, though you don’t spend much time in it.

Because of your SURVIVAL INSTINCT, you tend to avoid HIGHBLOODS and FIGHTS, but you can still handle yourself in a combat situation. You do like to group with other LOWBLOODS and scurry along with them in SWARMS whenever you can, partially for companionship and partially for safety. However, because of your nature to occasionally pick up and move on to a new city district, you never make a lot of close friends in the SWARMS. You do keep up with several friends on Trollian though. Because of how often you move around, you rarely have good supplies or anything you can’t easily carry.

You are a rather CHARISMATIC troll. You are frequently the de facto leader of the SWARMS you hang out with, setting up all the daily plans and the occasional RAIDS for supplies. Not anything big of course, that could threaten your SURVIVAL, but because of your CUNNING, many of your RAIDS can seem dangerous to your underlings. They always get away with it anyway, except for a few close scraps. You also have a minor psychic power. You can detect the presence of anyone within 30 feet of you, though you cannot tell anything about them. But all the cunning and natural skill you possess is put to waste, as you have no plans for the future or any foresight.

Your LUSUS is a large WEASELBEAST. He has a rather wily personality, and you don’t quite trust him, but he has protected you many times. You use the MAZE fetch modus. You must complete a small maze to retrieve the item you want. You have DAGGERKIND as your strife specibus, which you use for stealth attacks, preferring not to fight head on. Your troll tag is knavishVermin and you speak veryquicklyallthetimeALLOFIT.

You are now ANVITA ESPRIT, and as said before, you like to be STRONG. Unfortunately, you're a NOODLY-ARMED WIMP without the aid of your PSIONIC POWERS. Since you were young, you've been using them to increase your physical ability. Because of this, you haven't increased in your physical ability at all, but you've become quite adept at your abilities.

Your lack of physical strength, however, doesn't mean you're a slacker. You're incredibly HARD-WORKING, due to you often being attacked and forced to do labor-intensive training whatevers by your GIANT BOVINE HOOFBEAST lusus. You are also DETERMINED to the point of being INCREDIBLY STUBBORN. Despite all of this, however, you are actually a PRETTY CHILL GIRL. Even if you do look REALLY MEAN.

On the hemospectrum, your blood is AMONG THE LOWEST. But this doesn't really affect the way you act toward those who are higher than you on the spectrum. You treat them like ANY OTHER TROLL. You're not disrespectful, no. You just DON'T CARE ABOUT THE SPECTRUM.

Your strife specibus is 2HSWORDKIND, because..well because wielding huge-ass swords is PRETTY DAMN COOL. Unfortunately, because of this, you're not the fastest when it comes to combat.

Your trolltag is adherentAegis and you ṫypε in α vεry subṫlε mαnnεr.

Your name is Baihuu Felida. As a SEA DWELLER, your moirail says you have some kind of status over nearly every other troll, and you guess she might be right. You aren't much of an expert on these things. Since you live on a ship and your LUSUS is completely WATERBOUND and feeds itself, you've pretty much had free reign to do whatever you want. As a result, your childhood has been spent staying up till well past sunrise playing MORALLY DUBIOUS VIDEO GAMES. Ones which encouraged the player to help other trolls. There was even a mini-game in which you had to catch OIL in a BUCKET! As a result you are... more than a little strange. Your grasp of many 'social morays' is kinda loose and you have some pretty weird views on normal things like culling. Weird shit like 'KILLING IS PROBABLY NOT A GOOD IDEA'. You aren't stupid though. Being able to solve puzzles for trolls much older than you has not left you stupid, just MAL-ADJUSTED. You are a perfectly reasonable guy most of the time, although you tend to worry too much about what others think and the possibility of your FRIENDS getting hurt. Did you mention you had friends? You tend to make them pretty easily. Gotta spread the disease, man. In an attempt to copy your favourite video game characters, you have an interest in EXPLORING; you like to investigate ancient temples and evade the EVIL TRAPS that are set there. As a result, you're a bit of an ACROBAT. Your SHIP-HIVE is littered with SOUVENIRS of your little trips. Since you're often out in the BLAZING ALTERNIAN SUN, you wear WHITE CLOTHES to reduce the heat and SUNGLASSES. You've tried to dye your hair BLUE, since a HERO HAS TO HAVE BLUE HAIR, but the sea water always washes it out. Lousy cheap dye. The only thing you have which is really top quality is your STATE OF THE ART HUSKTOP. Seriously, that thing so powerful, its quite funny. Your troll tag is adventuringFreedom and (uuai)ou have a prett(uuai) strong a(sea)(sea)ent, uuhi(sea)h makes it (seaue)uite hard to understand uuhat (uuai)ou sa(uuai). You will eventually become the SCOURGE OF WRATH in the LAND OF SLEET AND FALLING LEAVES. You will interpret this as it being your duty to ensure your team doesn't dissolve into in fighting. You will be quite wrong.

Ok, you're now a troll named Mavkha Arngrim and you have 6 sweeps old. You're a girl who tends to be EMPATHIC, also, you enjoy being PLAYFUL, often the of the FRIENDLY kind. Despite the fact of being a green blood you try to mantain your MANNERS with most people except those you can't withstand. You're not in FASHION, but you like to wear a hoodie with sort of "ears" to cover your big horns when you wear it.

Now, in your many INTERESTS but not too many, you like investigaing shenanigans about ALIEN CULTURES and their ARTIFACTS, but you aren't smart enough to know their secrets. So you settle for lurking into their ownings and discoveries. Also, you have an odd interest in BOTANY so you mantain a little garden inside of your hive.

You use the bowKind strife specibus, though you aren't that skillful and sometimes you fail when shooting your arrows. You want to be perhaps, a respected ARCHERAEDICATOR or a famous HUNTRISCERAPTOR.

You go by the trolltag dharmikaLepus and you

Far out.
Your name is Luisan Hiraji, you are peacefully minded about your environment, and are particularly zen a lot of the time, which is to say, nearly 100% of the time.
Candles, Incense, Nice shiny statues, anything really decorative and meaninful gets your ganter of interest. You're firey and proud, and your honor is clouded by your overtones of deviating perception. Though you iterate instructions clearly if it helps get your point across.

Beneath your enlightened shell, you are known to be arrogant and agressive; thankfully, you never seem to switch off your calm mode for some reason, but no one is complaining. That blue blood smeared across your face is a token you keep to let people know you're a brutal fighter for any cause, despite how you let off.

Your Lusus, Aralong, is this gigantic lizardy thing that is very long, and wraps around your hive in the mountains quite often. It does all the defending for you while you sit content in your rooms. You never do use your Torchkind specibus often.

Your trolltag is blueeyedBane and Lonnnng hummmms are a slight nature.

nope~we're~not~doing~this>

>Wait why?

because~it's~a~shitty~way~to~introduce~characters~ and~you~know~it>



Your name is Amazah Lazuno and you are totally not the Empress.

That’s right; you’re totally NOT the Empress. No siree, why would you be the Empress? That’s crazy.

…

Nah, you’re totally the EMPRESS. Or well, the Empress to be. Not that you really care, I mean, you’re just in a position that means you eventually rule over the entire empire; but who cares about that? Not you. Oh no, you get your kicks in other ways. First of all, you like messing with people. It’s pretty straightforward, right? You just do something or say something that someone else either VEHEMENTLY opposes or is just IGNORANT about. Then they throw a TANTRUM and you laugh. It’s an excellent way to kill time and make friends! Well, okay, you’re not sure on the last part.

While you are the EMPRESS, you do not make this obvious. You don’t wear your blood on your sleeve (literally and metaphorically), and you often fake your actual blood color anyways. It’s not because you’re scared of reactions, no, nor the fact that people would be more inclined to kill you. It’s quite simple, masquerading as a mid-blood (green specifically) gives you an excellent vantage point to piss off everyone!

Think about it, you can piss off lowbloods by saying they’re dirt and you’re not; and you can piss off highbloods by existing! Although sometimes you like to mix it up, and pretend you’re a rustblood or a blueblood. It just so happens that green is your favorite.

Besides pissing people off, you have other interests. INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: murder, blackmail, arson, torture, and giving people oatmeal raisin cookies instead of chocolate chip. Yeah, for an empress-to-be you don’t really care much about your empire or subjects. Jokes aside, you enjoy a good game of chess or go. You routinely enjoy pulling off GAMBITS of many varieties, although often times they’re really just GRUB’S PLAY.

If it wasn’t OBVIOUS ENOUGH, you’ve got little FRIENDS. This is partially because of your JERKISH NATURE, and partially because of your inability to cope with such people in your life. That’s right; outside of being an obnoxious jerk, you have HORRID SOCIAL SKILLS. None of your quadrants are filled and probably never will be; probably because you are terrible at COMMUNICATING your feelings. This doesn’t really sit well with you, but you’ve come to accept it. You of course uphold the hemospectrum and what not, mainly because without it, a lot of your fun would have no context.

Your strife specibus is KNIFEKIND (specifically butterfly knives) and you also have 2x3DENTKIND; as befitting of an empress-to-be, although you’re pretty bad at using it. Occasionally you use CHAINKIND, as a way of giving your knives a bit more BITE. Your fetch modi is BLATANT LIAR, and requires you to think of another name for an object sincerely, while making it painfully obvious you’re lying.

Your hive is… Well, it’s in the ocean. It’s a really tall shell spire, which the tip of barely reaches the surface. Your lusus enjoys coiling around your hive and napping. Really that’s all she ever does! Coil and nap, and occasionally devour anything that strays too close. She is known as K’KASSOG’ATH THE ALL REACHING, or something… You’re not exactly sure, and you don’t really care either.

You think you got it right.

You are GUSEPT LAVRID. You have a variety of interests, including VIDEO GAMES, ENGINEERING, and the occasional FLARP SESSION, but you would never admit that last one to your friends. You have a little trouble sleeping, so you often stay up for multiple days in a row, making you TIRED and LOSE FOCUS. Your lusus is a friendly HOOFBEAST whom you often travel with on her back when she is feeling charitable and adventurous, which is quite often. You aren't particularly fond of the lower castes, but still find them bearable.
Your trolltag is nocturnalYoungster and you often need to pause to keep your head c7ear...zzz...

You succeed.

Or rather, you would have, if you weren't this douchebag. Who is this douchebag? This douchebag is you, NITHOS ANCONA. And you are 6 sweeps old, not that it matters much.

You're the triple Alternian fuck up, as you like to call yourself. But never mind that. You have a VARIETY of INTERESTS, all of them generally based around your fuck ups.

For one thing, you train near endlessly in the fine art of SWORDSMANSHIP, using your RAPIER. You, however, are NOTORIOUSLY BAD with it. The only thing you've ever managed to hurt is YOURSELF. Although you'd rather not talk about THAT INCIDENT. You store it in your BLADEKIND strife specibi, safely away from yourself.

Which is unfortunate, since your LUSUS is a notoriously vicious CLUCKBEAST. Renowned for their AGGRESSION and penchant for SPONTANEOUS RAMPAGES. Yours, in particular, always causes you PROBLEMS. He demands you keep everything NEAT and TIDY and is generally just FUSSY about everything. Not only that! His BRIGHT RED COM-Wait wait! You never said that, okay?

It's not like you're some kind of MUTANT or something! Yeah, that'd be ridiculous! I mean, how stupid would you even have to be to be a-Oh, fuck it! Yes, you're a mutant. Your blood is as bright and red as the Alternian sun at sundown. You hide it behind gray, although all it really does is prohibit your SECRET INFATUATION with the TOTALLY STUPID art of FASHION.

You see, your lusus has a BRIGHT RED COMB on his head, proudly displaying the secret for all of Alternia to see. It's because of this and his aforementioned aggressiveness that you live where you do, in a secluded ALTERNIAN SAVANNAH.

You used to hate it, but it allowed you to pursue your other INTERESTS, BIRD KEEPING and FARMING. You FARM out of need, since a nice bag of BIRDSEED is the only way to calm your LUSUS down. And, besides, your BIRDS need to eat, too. You have DIFFERENT REASONS for keeping them, though....

You can't talk. At all. You've never been able to. You know HOW to talk, you just can't actually do it. Thus you've become RELIANT on your HUSKTOP for communication, but that doesn't always cut it. That's why you raise your BIRDS, you train them to speak for you. Although they are extremely ANNOYING to clean up after. You also have a TOTALLY MANLY love of SAPPY, OVERDONE LOVE STORIES. And SITCOMS, you love your sitcoms.

You need them to operate your modus, SHOUT MODUS, which requires you to shout the name of the item you want to retrieve. And, unfortunately, it doesn't respond to any of your many DIGITAL VOICE programs.

All of these handicaps have had a weird effect on you, though. You're almost always OVEREAGER to prove that you're the best at something, and eagerly strut your stuff. Even when you don't have much stuff to strut. This often gets you into TROUBLE, because you will accept and try almost ANY dare just to prove how AWESOME you are.

Your trolltag is fowlOrnithologist And you type likke this, you cluckking asshole.

Your name is SIRIUS KURAGO, and you aspire to one day be part of the SHOGAKURAZ, a group of BOUNTY HUNTERS who apprehend criminals and those who seek to destroy ALTERNIAN SOCIETY. This often conflicts with the views of seadwellers, which has led you to have a certain PREJUDICE against them. The fact that your OWN BLOOD COLOR is of an indigo shade and only a few shades of from being a SEADWELLER YOURSELF only makes matters worse. It has also caused a certain amount of SELF-DOUBT and the fear that you will completely lose your COOL due to your high blood color, which is why you are grateful for your MOIRAIL. However, you still maintain a HAIR-TRIGGER TEMPER, and could go off on anyone at any moment. You use your shades to hide your emotions and keep your cool.

You are about 6 SWEEPS OLD, but it could be a slight bit off, considering you don't really count, especially since you value ACTUAL SKILLZ before age. This also keeps you from having an ENORMOUS EGO about being the best Bounty Hunter In-Training for your age, as you would rather strive to be the best out of ALL OF THEM. Though you have a near-spotless record for capturing CRIMINALS, you also have a record for not culling a single ONE OF THEM, which is somewhat looked down upon, especially because of your rather HIGH blood color.

Your interests include DANCING TO SOME ILL BEATZ, along with TAGGING, in which you spray graffiti art over others' HIVES, and occasionally along the COAST as a big FUCK YOU to seadwellers. By human standards, you would probably be considered a CLOSET PERVERT, though you take it much more literally, as you have a CLOSET in which you store buckets and several MAGAZINES which are just too OBSCENE to name here. No one must ever find out. You don't find it particularly bad and think the others are just WIGGLERS for thinking so badly of it, but still, it wouldn't be so good for your reputation.

You shy away from FLARP or TABLETOP GAMING for the most part, not because you find them uninteresting, but they would usually involve either CULLING or GETTING CULLED, neither of which are particularly appealing to you. You do SOME online multiplayer gaming, going on RAIDS when you are particularly bored.

Your lusus is a LOYAL PAWBEAST, and you would be MORTIFIED if you ever lost him in some TRAGIC manner. He usually comes with you when BOUNTY HUNTING as well.

Your trolltag is unbeatableSamurai and you zpeak in a careful, calm manner, and try to avoid getting TOO FUCKING EMOTIONAL.

Your are now MAIALE INGENA. You are 6 sweeps old, more specifically 6 AND A 3RD. Somehow, you feel like you've had to repeat this to people a lot.

Though you do not fancy yourself a particularly INTERESTING troll, you still have a variety of INTERESTS. Your first and foremost is your OBSESSION with COLLECTING. You have DOZENS of collections in your hive- from mundane things such as plants or flags to... slightly more EXOTIC items. Most of the items were LOOTED from OLD ABANDONED HIVES, or even NEW ABANDONED HIVES. Though you feel bad for the UNFORTUNATE previous owners, it's such a WASTE to leave all of that stuff SITTING AROUND! Or worse, THROWN OUT. You absolutely HATE it when perfectly good things get thrown out. Mostly because you are not willing to actually TOUCH anything that's been in the garbage. It'd be far too DIRTY! Yes, you are also a little bit of a NEAT FREAK, though you swear you're not that bad. You just like things to be clean, really! Anyways, your collections pretty much completely fill your HIVE to the brim. If anything, they certainly help you navigate your MAZE-LIKE hive much easier.

Anyways! Another thing you are interested in is COOKING. It's so much fun! Especially because you have a very interesting approach to it. Any by that, you mean that you usually try and make FANCY DISHES without actually knowing the RECIPES. Sometimes you actually make something DECENT, but they're usually just COMPLETELY TERRIBLE. Thankfully, your TUSKBEAST lusus is not very picky! She is such an awesome lusus, even if she has a habit of TRASHING THINGS when she gets angry.

As for other things? You hope to someday been a good PEACEMAKER, because you currently REALLY SUCK AT IT. You also hope to someday get rid of your accursed LISHP, brought on by your TERRIBLE UNDERBITE. You're honestly quite embarrassed by it, and thus try and make it as UNNOTICEABLE as possible, though this is kind of like trying to hide the fact that the SEA is WET.

Your trolltag is credulousCiacco, and you teend to squeeal a beet beecausee you cant heelp eet. Your strife specibus is set to forkKind, which would be useful if you had a CULLING FORK- but no, all you have is a KITCHEN FORK. Still, it's better than nothing.

[Flamerider64]

Once a month, okay, I can do that.
I'll log on to Pesterchum as much as possible, so you can reach Luisan for RPing anytime.

EDIT: okay, make that as often as I can remember.

( seriously though I am posting today! i will not sleep until there is a post onliiine <A> )

[Charred_gp]

In the interest of keeping this rp alive, I think we might want to just open up the slots. Neither of the reservations are in, and don't seem like they ever will be.

[awesomeIncarnate]

That's probably a good idea. Maybe that one app that's still reserved we can bug into doing their profile, but since Nathan's dropped his reservation, opening the slot. (Ram,was it...?)

I think he was supposed to be the Snake. VG is the Ram.
