This is the kind of structure I had in mind.

BoltBeam No, actually I think it's best we stick to third person. With point of view character I just mean which character you're looking at right now.

KennethPhoenix18 I like your template. Maybe just place the atmosphere at the beginning of the post instead of the end? I feel that information is best to be provided at the beginning so that we can better visualize what's happening as we read.

 

[BoltBeam]

Ahh, gotcha. Sounds good to me!

This is just one of my many. I have had some on the sides, some at the top. All just on how I felt like doing it.

I normally do the bottom as it references the character at the end of post.

 

[Redfork2000]

Got it.

I think it's best to have it at the top as it provides information that helps visualize the scene better as it is being read instead of after it was read.

Okay easy enough. One more question. Do you want the beginning to end in case characters move and/or states change as example.

Location: Farm - > Diner
With: X Person
Mood: Happy - > Annoyed

Is that something you care about? My apologies if I am going overboard on anything, I should add.

 

[CaptainMarvelous]

Oh yeah, that's a good point. Especially since it's likely that characters will be moving/changing moods.

But I like this way of organizing, it will make it easy to check in on other characters even if we're not interacting with them.

Don't worry, it's a valid question. You definitely make a very good point there. It's something I didn't see being applied, but I think it's a very good idea, as it would help show the change of state. It's only natural that over the course of the interactions their mood will change, and they will be in different places as time goes on, so I think this works very well. Thanks for the suggestion. I think we should do it.

 

[lilbean]

I like the idea! And I’ll get stared on my miner character right away

 

[lilbean]

James Warren is in the CS, I’m really excited about his character

 

[JeloJellyJam]

I'm still not done with my character info. Well, the backstory to be exact...

 

[lilbean]

I think we only have 3 more characters to go

 

[Redfork2000]

Sorry for not being around these past few days. Life gets crazy at times. Yesterday was my birthday, and to make things short, lots of stuff happened. But now I'm finally back.

 

[lilbean]

Welcome back!

 

[Redfork2000]

Thanks. We'll be ready to start soon, I'm just waiting for the last character sheets to be posted.

 

[CaptainMarvelous]

Yay! Can't wait to get started!

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Name: Lucile kristal

-Age: 24

-Physical Description: A pretty enough woman with brown, wild hair and big green eyes. She's rather thin and has freckles here and there. She wears big thick glasses and a bunch of beaded bracelets she always wears

-Personality: pretty out there. Some would call her mad, the right people just think she's interesting. She is a little all over the place but she has one of the biggest hearts around.

-Backstory: she grew up in emerald valley and left to go to school. Things didn't much work out for her and all her novels ended up total flops. So, she came back home to her sick parents who died shortly after. She took a job as the librarian and has been there ever since.

-Relatives: she used to live with her mom and dad, but they are no longer alive, as previously stated

-Likes: books! Duh. She likes Chinese takeout and sappy love stories, the notebook is her favorite movie.

-Dislikes: she hates horror movies and most rock music, along with basically anything that plays on the pop or country stations nowadays. She hates ignorant people who don't know when to quit and will probably start yelling if you don't know when enough is enough
The

Is this the librarian or something?

 

[Redfork2000]

Yes, she is.

 

[BellePotter_Stormcloud]

It's not a party without anxiety

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

And lack of experience of what a party really is!

 

[BellePotter_Stormcloud]

Very true. All I have to go off of is the movie 10 things I hate about you and them getting into a fight- and then all the guys just started screaming fight- and I'm terrible at explaining things, I'll leave now. *sinks into the abyss*

 

[lilbean]

We only have one more character sheet to go I think!

 

[BoltBeam]

Heck knows when that'll be up, but apart from that one CS we're now waiting on, we're good to go.

 

[lilbean]

They only have the backstory left

 

[Redfork2000]

I suppose I could get working on the IC thread then. Then the person who still has to make their character sheet can join once they've finished their character sheet.

 

[CaptainMarvelous]

Yeah that might be a good idea, so people can start working on their first posts.
