White Masquerade
QuirkyAngel's Red Oni
I know most of this is coming from left field through misinterpretation or something personal outside the RP, because I actually look this stuff up. I didn't respond to the comment about the clothesline because it's simply wrong. It has nothing to do with whether the user of it is moving or not; just that the arm is held straight and nothing more. It can be done moving or not. I know my post wasn't read properly because even whether the Sensei was moving or not, the response was open-ended enough to fit both scenarios. She could have ran into it, or been ran into by it after her way was blocked.
Second, about wanting the character to be feared, respected, or idolized is non-sense. It's a character of the warrior archetype with 5 Force. How else is that supposed to be showed? In all my RPs, the characters I control are usually the ones who die, get hurt, or beat first. Read through the work if you're skeptical. Now, this is a dice role-play. In no way, shape, or form, can I control the numbers I roll. Just like it said in a post during the story: my character has some dumb luck. Am I sorry I've constantly had good rolls? Yes, I am. Do I hate it? Yes, I do. I am not used to my character ever being on top. Am I going to ignore the lucky results? No. Ixacise has gotten me to like this game and want to strive my very best to learn it right by doing everything well.
Cause of that, it irks me when I lose a result simply because I didn't read the book right. Or didn't label something right. Or forgot to put a plus sign. Yeah. I'm kind of a newbie. They do that. I love this so much I want to lose because I didn't right or my dice sucked; not because of something trivial from the list that I mentioned before. So at the beginning when I had to re-roll because of a missing label, I was peeved. I don't apologize it.
Third, my character's personality is all over the place, because real people are all over the place. Plus, she's 12. The virtues here are Force, Righteousness, and Honor. Nowhere do I see quiet, unassuming, submissive, or agreeable. Those are just the usual traits added onto the Forceful, righteous, and honor-bound archetypes in most media. I'm sorry if the added surface traits don't match up to what's common, but I consciously make sure those three virtues are followed.
Is Kazimah a bully? Not really. Just loud, proud, confident and forceful. A coward? To someone that doesn't know her, yeah it would look that way. Inside, it's the complete opposite. Would meeting the cat at the pond to fight over her name be honorable? Forceful? Yes. Righteous? No. The silly little flashback was put in there to point out exactly that. When her boot was torn, did she want to hit back? HELL YEAH. Would that be forceful? Yes. Righteous? No. Honorable? No. Would it even be believable with those virtues? If you think about it, HELL NO.
Throwing the ball hard at Kenta. Forceful? Yes. Righteous? No. Honorable? No. Now, under normal circumstances, that would stay no, but this is a competition. So is the blow justified? Yes. Not giving your all in a type of battle is like the very definition of dis-honor. Which bring me to my last point.
The cat has been dis-honorable. Not in just the match, but the whole day. I don't know Ichigo's exact scores, but I give the acts a benefit of the doubt, because I know they're at least on the side of being malicious. So that doesn't even matter. The competition is where it all comes to a head. The cat's acts are not only dis-honorable, but un-righteous. Kazimah is not a push-over, tolerant, submissive, compliant, or a masochist. Why would she stay around something she absolutely abhors? She hates Ichigo, and with her being chivalrous while the other is extra-malicious, that's how it should be. Going after a teammate in a match? She scolded the cat for it the first time. Then a second time? She is livid. Though unless Ichigo hurts somebody innocent, Kazimah will never lay a finger on her no matter what she says. Or anyone for that matter.
Things just happened to come to a head right when the other team decided to do some wicked stuff. I was planning to have Kazimah go the second I read Ichigo's post. There's nothing owed to somebody being so malicious. The only one Kazimah felt sorry for is Takahashi and the other team. Being honorable, she was going to wait by the front gate for Taka to go home, and take him to lunch. She would've vented her frustrations, apologized, cried, and eventually gotten closer to Takahashi. I was preparing for some great character development for both of us.
Now with the lore, I'm new. So I don't even know. You're right; I have nothing. There's zero for me to say there.
I don't know about you guys, but all the talk about Kazimah really detracted from the RP. I was sick of it myself. I really wanted to get to know their story and more of the other team.
Finished. Sorry it was so long. I just figured it wouldn't be understood if I glazed over things. I really hated wasting everyone's time doing this, but hopefully things are clear. I like you all, and LOVE the game, but the tension is just a little much. Just ahead of time, I'll most likely be exiting the Role-play after this match, so heads up =/. Again! Sorry for the wait. I'll be rolling in a bit.
