In hindsight Eve's biggest weakness is freedom and no sense of direction. If given the chance to do her own thing she gets overwhelmed because she has been told what to do, ever since she was born. It's almost OCD. Or anxiety. Like if she isn't told what to do she flips.


It's kind of sad really. She doesn't understand affection or anything of that sort. She just wants to help. Perhaps to the point of annoying

She needs a habit. Video games, TV, playing electric guitar...maybe meth...

Well there are two ways to spar that might get her blood pumping kek kek. xD

 

[Lord Zanicus]

@Zuka @Lord Zanicus
Just in case you've been wondering, here's the logic behind Korvaiis' (and my) decisions of late:


Zarytto only learned of and acquired the Zenkai by Korvaiis' grace, and would never have known of its existence otherwise. He has either forgotten that fact or chose to ignore it and shown no gratitude for having it unlocked in the first place as if he always should have had it because he just deserves it as a member of the superior race. Bullshit.


He has also forgotten or ignored the fact that without Korvaiis and the group he wouldn't be where he is now. He'd have died in the vastness of space. He's now alive and mountains above his previous state of a triple digit power level, and has no right to complain about recent events. None whatsoever.


These facts are getting under Korvaiis' skin and making him act hostile to Zarytto.


Zarytto's profile says: "Despite of his aggressive front, Zarytto tends to favour a more strategic and tactical approach to matters at hand."


He has demonstrated no tactical or strategic thinking whatsoever concerning the matters at hand. Just arrogance, hot headedness, and the inability to cope with what's going on if it seems beyond his control. In other words, he's been giving up. I'm capitalizing on this for dramatic effect and tension.


His profile also says: "Zarytto seems intelligent and have a strong will to hold and control himself from a situation where he wouldn't benefit from, even when mocked or challenged."


Again, he has failed to stay true to himself in this respect against Korvaiis. I am also capitalizing on this for even further dramatic effect and tension. He lost nearly all control against Eve and Korvaiis both, and it has cost him dearly.


And finally his profile says: "If its a fight where he knew he couldn't even scratch the other, then he would wait until he is stronger and stand a chance at hurting the other party."


... Fail.


So all of these failings are driving what I have been having Korvaiis do and say to Zarytto during this time. If Zarytto is actually a strategic and intelligent Saiyan despite his hot headedness as the profile says, then having him come back is a simple matter of him figuring out by morning that his attitude is what's led to this. His Zenkai being locked: his fault. Being banished from the group which gave him the power to ascend to the heights he desired in order to help him conquer and rule his own planet and prove he's always been right in his philosophies: his fault. Getting his tail kicked in every battle because he underestimated his enemies and thought too much of his own growing powers: his fault.


If he is a tactical, strategic, and intelligent Saiyan, then having the night to really think hard about what he's said and done will prove to him that he has in fact been in the wrong this whole time whether he wants to openly admit it to anyone else or not. Thus far he's acted like an ignorant fool without any knowledge or skill in the ways of tactical or strategic thinking. He's displayed very little intelligence to speak of either, and that's what has led to his current situation.


If he wants his Zenkai back, he needs to start acting like the Saiyan his profile says he is. A tactical, strategic, and intelligent Saiyan who's brain is hidden only by his temper. But when given the chance to calm down, his intelligence should shine through. If he has the night to think over recent events and realize that his Zenkai being taken was the result of his own weakness, his desire to grow stronger and to rule his own planet after conquering every world in the cosmos should make his course clear: suck it up this one time and apologize to everyone for his words and actions, and accept Korvaiis' punishment until he sees fit to return the Zenkai to him.

Yes, so true! He have yet to show that side of him! And he've not heard the Commander's term for getting his zenkai unlocked again for him to consider staying..


But it doesn't matter, it's just my character's exit.. Did mention I'm pulling myself out from the RP, didn't I? And that I'll be spectating!


I've enjoyed myself but life beckons my attention! Have fun guys! And feel free to drop me a message any time!

If you say so. I have given Zarytto one last chance to remain in the RP within my post (which goes up in a few minutes) if you feel so inclined before opting to leave for good. If you really want to bow out for good, then don't worry about it because I gave you that out as well. But if you think Zarytto would accept the challenge Korvaiis has given him, then by all means stick around.


I hope you'll consider staying, as I want to see Zarytto continue on. But if you read the post and still don't think Zarytto would make an appearance then that's fine.


I'll leave it to you to decide, but please do read the post before officially bowing out.

Very well, I shall do so.

My thought is that if Zarytto accepts the challenge Korvaiis will throw the fight towards the end, though not letting anyone know of it, allowing Zarytto to demand his Zenkai back and then letting him then do as he pleases. Whether that's continuing to leave as you had intended or whether it's demanding his place back in the group is up to you.


The reason for Korvaiis throwing the fight is because he knows there's more to Zarytto than his recent behavior would imply, and he wants to prove it by helping Zarytto satisfy his pride by defeating Korvaiis. Normally this would be impossible. Even at 50% of his power Korvaiis could win against Zarytto thanks to his experience and prodigious combat skills. But this time he wants more than to show that he can win a fight.


So it's up to you LZ.

 

[Kyero]

@Zuka Your post directly conflicts with what my post already provided. Korvaiis didn't wait after telling her what to do. He went straight to sending his message to Zarytto. I have to ask that you edit the post so she thought about doing and saying these things, but did not do them.

I know I was just thinking that.


Then again you didn't give me a chance to respond as my character would have done so

I was counting on Eve reacting in a more confused than aggressive manner, not knowing whether to appreciate the concern of the others or focus more on what Korvaiis was telling her about how to apologize. Perhaps stopping just inside as the Commander begins sending his message to Zarytto to listen and at least finding some comfort in the challenging knowing that if Zarytto accepts he'll be coming back, even if only for a short time.

 

[Kyero]

Also the other reason I was hoping to see something different is that if Eve waits and does as told, while standing just inside the ship as the Commander contacts Zarytto she should realize that something is up.


Why would the Commander contact, let alone challenge, someone whom he deems a worthless coward? What is the logic in that? Telling her he's worthless and a coward and to forget about him if the Commander himself hasn't done so? This is what I was counting on. Eve being told what to do and doing it, even if begrudgingly, and then realizing that the Commander is once again doing what he does best: pulling strings in a way that only he understands.

@general ostruppen


There are no Saiyans at the current planet that our group is on save for those under the command of Koraviis. If you want him to run into a Saiyan, it will have to be either the Commander himself (as he's the only one standing outside the ship at the moment), or one of the others who are all currently inside the ship which include Nei, Kendra, Urod, Era, Sil, Eve, Karas, Dicchio, or Raze.


That's a complete list of the Saiyans current on the planet in a position to encounter Kentan, though it's likely that Koraviis will be the first he makes contact with since he's right there outside their vessel. Kentan isn't getting inside without seeing the Commander standing there waiting for Zarytto to either accept or deny his challenge.


If you decide to interact with any of them, namely the Commander himself, you'll have to state your character's initial interaction and dialogue and wait for a reply from the owner of said character.


Good luck.

Will do I'll change it

 

[general ostruppen]

K I responded to your character first

 

[Zooks]

@Kyero @Lord Zanicus


If Zarytto does return I'll be sure to have Eve sense his power and run outside.


I was gunna edit my post but too late now. I'll just leave eve with a distaste of the commander in her mouth.


Gotta have some tension yeah?

 

[general ostruppen]

TENSION FOR THE TENSION GODS!!

 

[Kyero]

Heh. Tension is one of my favorite elements of role-playing. Sadly, this view is not shared by a lot of role-players I meet.


I think the worst case was around 3 years ago on another site where I made an RP just like this one focused on combative characters and a violent world of exploration. I let everyone know that the RP would be dramatic, violent, and heartbreaking, but despite that everyone said they were cool with it.


Then, a few weeks in, one of the players comes to me and says basically the following (paraphrased because I don't remember the exact words):


"This RP is far too brutal. The subject matter doesn't support this kind of violence. Sure violence is part of some of the character's lives, but not all of them. Either you tone down the level of brutality or I am leaving the RP. I cannot condone or be a part of an RP that's this outlandishly violent. That and the way certain characters are reacting is just not cool. I hate it that almost everyone's characters are ganging up on mine because they're the one who seems sympathetic to what just happened!"


Basically in an RP focusing on a group of Black Ops operatives, this one person's character decided to be the sympathizer of the enemy while everyone else was not. There was a large IC disagreement, and I got that message from them.


Nice right?


Lol.

But isn't tension what helps create dramatic and great resolving endings as long as the players do it right. Otherwise yeah you give them what they get.

[/QUOTE]
That was my thought.


The RP was focused on a group of Black Ops operatives in a very violent world taking on the worst of the worst. Violence and brutality were the focal point, but this individual said I went too far even though I clearly did not. But I think what pissed them off was that their character was ganged up on and I did nothing to stop it. But IC it was the only realistic action. Let the ganging up take place. The argument was one sided. They had a job to do and the enemy gave them no reason to hold back or sympathize.


Oh well. It's ancient history. Just one example of the strange disagreements about drama and tension I've encountered.

 

[general ostruppen]

Pretty sure anybody would take advantage, good thing I played pathfinder with a brutal mod xD

@Kyero


Also everyone has a thing to do and Eve is just kinda, there, making tension. Would you mind if had her learn how to pilot? Like the huge vessel or even the smaller ones? I figured Karas could point her in the direction how to manual fly and she can learn from there
