(OOCC) Kokia: Pending Conflicts
Darkstar64:
I do have four other questions about this RP.
1) I know that god-modding is an issue in RP'ing, but would there be a chance of two characters passing by, but not really acknowledging each other? For example, maybe Ayara and Scythe pass each other, but the two don't really talk, maybe just a quick exchange.
-Hello, there.
-Lowly human.
2) When fighting, I assume you have to say what type of attack you're using, Eg:
I swung my sword. = NO
I attacked with a backhand slice, then went in for a forward thrust. = YES
3) In my character skeleton, I said Scythe was learning Eyowin. If that's the case, I imagine he would sometimes mess up what he was trying to say.
Eg:
-Common *Eyowin
*It's nice to see you again.
(As opposed to it's nice to meet you.)
4) I was hoping for my character to have a theme song. I know what you're thinking, that's a little selfish, making it look like the RP is all about me. I don't blame you for that, but the way I see it, music just adds that much more to the situation. Setting the mood, putting you in the character's shoes, almost creating the scene for you. It'd be nice to add music to a lot of events that go on in the RP, and I can usually pick out just the right music for any kind of event, so I'm not going to put 'asdfmovie song' in for a fight. And there won't be any techno either, considering the 'period of time'. If you don't want me to, just let me know.
Sorry about asking so many questions, I just want to make sure I'll be doing this the way you intended.

4: I am not sure how you would have a "theme song" for your character, you may have to elaborate on that (like an audio file? or lyrics?)
3: yes you could do that, if your specifying your speaking in Eyowin you can do the broken speech bit, that would add an interesting flavor to the R.P
2: You are absolutely right. in fact, fights in general MUST be planned before hand, especially if its between two R.P'ers, I do not like the "Ego battles" that happen sometimes, they are not interesting to read, but a choreographed fight will be interesting to prospective players
1: G-modding will NOT be tolerated of course, I will have your character randomly gobbled up by a dragon or something if you do it to much, as far as ignoring other players there is some leeway. For instance if you both are walking down the street and don't know each-other then no you don't need to see each other...but if one is locked in a life or death struggle and half the block is on fire with people screaming for their lives...and your window shopping, THEN I have a problem
Darkstar64:
1) Well, I understand that part. It would be like if there wasn't anything going on, the two just pass each other, then they wouldn't necessarily talk.
4) Well, what I mean by that is I would somehow give a link to a song (through youtube or other websites with music, or possibly a download if requested), and when reading the post, you would listen to it. Trust me, listening to the right music when reading REALLY adds to the feeling of the text.
5) I also forgot to ask what the map of the area we're in looks like. I have a general idea of what it looks like, but I'm still a little confused.

I haven't posted an official map yet, once Im happy with how everything is laid out then I'll make it
the general layout though is the humans run the center and north of the continent, elves and the Faerie run the east with Gods presiding over the land and Orcs, dark elves and goblins run the west with dragons presiding over them. Also the main Kingdom of humans is known as Arcadia (generic sure, but it works) and inside there is several guilds and the Arcadian magic institute as well as the Castle itself
Politics run like this
East: Dynasties Run by the high elves (I have a whole heirarchy based on actual dynasties)
Central: Kingdom, Feudal law (I'll elaborate later)
West: Many small tribes, some will help and some will scalp you, pretty much Anarchy
there is a lot more, but I want to make sure I can properly explain it all

Okay, now I see how it works. Thanks for answering my questions!
