Naruto Rebirth: Kakureyami OOC

[GasMaskie]

@White Masquerade


Cleared Camelot last night, it's really difficult compared to America. Some of the highlights of the Chapter include: a dying Arash using STELLA!, Tristan getting killed by Cursed-Arm Hassan's Zabaniya, King Hassan using some sort of Presence Concealment to essentially warp around in heavy plate without being noticed, and Mashu unlocking Lord Camelot at the very climax in the fight against Lancer Artoria. Sanzo sacrifices herself to get your group into Camelot, and it's revealed earlier that Bedivere's Switch Arm Airgetlám is actually Excalibur and it's slowly killing him.


Apparently, Solomon wasn't behind this Singularity. It was Bedivere, keeping Excalibur instead of throwing it into the lake that kickstarted this whole thing. Ozzy also goes Demon Pillar like Cu Chulainn Alter, but after he's defeated in that form he fights you alongside Nitocris. After that, he gives you his Grail and supports you in your final fight against the Round Table. Ozzy gets some of the best scenes in the Chapter in that he pilots his Pyramid against Camelot and crashes it into the kingdom. Lancelot, after beating him (His Grail Wish was to become a True Saint, he thus becomes a Ruler in his boss fight), joins your party. He ends up dueling Sir Agravain in Camelot but actually loses.

Sir Agravain, NPC only and the most obviously Evil design ever.​

If you ever wanted to know why Dove faced so much sh*t, the above is for you too. It's really nothing I had against her. She simply went against the flow of things to preserve her own pride. If you want to know what would have happened had she barked for Orisas, after that temporary disgrace, Dove would have had the whole Shirotaiyo behind her and they would have been her most loyal supporters for peace. Orisas and Dove would be very good friends =). The best ( )

Lucem... xD . Why do you do this? Lmao. Did you hate that ship or something? And give me some juicy details. Did Kouki see potential in any ship??? (:3)

All black does not mean evil (>A>). And shame on you. Thank goodness they cleared poor Solomon's name. I wish there was some kind of guide to see this, cause I can't quite wrap my head around all of it =/

Still maintain that in that specific scene Orisas acted more like a child than anyone else, especially given Dove's actions immediately prior in how she moved to secure the town's safety.


And I know Dove moved against it all, she pretty much found the swiftest stream flowing south and went "Hmm, methinks I'll go north in this stream" xD


I actually kept seeing Dove, after Yugakure, going back to the Kakureyami or going solo trying to kill everyone a few different times but silly things kept springing up, like Shinsei's butting heads with her and the like. But, as I'd secretly tucked away, Dove was kind of doomed from the start it's just that nobody knew it yet. All my joking about everyone hating her was more of me getting an honest giggle out of how expertly she was fitting into roles I was hoping she'd fit into as she became angrier and more and more violent. It was when I was 99% certain there was no hope to save Dove and keep her on the straight and narrow that I opted to introduce Rei as well, her being the 1% to help, but even that went down wrong because Rei was never befriended by any of the major figure heads like I'd hope she'd be, which put Dove's only other person she'd side with away from where I needed her to manoeuvre her back into talks with the ninja.


I mean, there was hope all the way back in Yugakure, but that was that. Once she'd gotten a taste for blood it was game over for her actually wanting peace. That should have been noted on the Kiri beach.


And then Shinsei.


Yea, we all knew it, and I like to think I played up the 'optimistic' approach to how well their ship would turn out enough to make everyone not realise I knew it was going to be in trouble later.


Now Rei's got the mantle of peacekeeper, and I figure she's going to do a lot better at it than most anyone else. Can't wait til the finale, cos once it's done I'm going to put together their fight for before the afterstory and finally reveal what that scroll does xD

Actually it's a google picture, cos none of my shitheads are well tempered enough to get a normal picture taken of them.


And regarding Dove, well, you guys had chances to save her. You wanted her to bark like a dog instead.


I gave Dove a sad backstory and an obviously misunderstood position, I think the next, smallest clue would have been a floating neon streetsign saying 'Please help, I am borderline crazy and need a friend' xD

 

[Pequeno Burraidh]

A good overarching theme for Dove for the whole of the RP.

Oh no, Solomon is still the main villain of Grand Order. Agravain might have been his agent. Asode from the black armor he also has that evil hyper-detailed Zouken face.


King Hassan is pretty cool, he's the first and original Hassan i-Sabbah so all the other Hassans look up to him. Definitely going to roll for him, especially if he's a Saber. Although they're religious zealots, they protect the weak and Camelot really did then justice. Also important to note that Cursed Arm Hassan's interlude featured him as a Batman-esque superhero in Rome so having the Hassans doing good isn't a new concept.

 

[QuirkyAngel]

@QuirkyAngel[/URL]
Quirkstar, I love it. These are the questions and analysis that would have helped all the characters so much if they only figured them out or bothered to ask. Having initiative and awareness of the world was the absolute key to doing well in this role-play. With it nearly being over, I can now say that's where most OCs struggled to deal. That was the secret factor.


Gah! Lol. I wish characters paused for a moment, looked around and really understood what was going on instead of just running amok like a bull in a china shop. This RP was cool for me at least, because in my opinion, it did a lot to parallel the aspects of real life. Sometimes someone will ask you to do nasty things in exchange for their loyalty as with Orisas & Dove. Sometimes You don't get who you want and have to live with it for whatever reason as in the case of Daradei and Chiaki. Sometimes you might have to give up a little piece of what you want, to continue being with the one you genuinely like as in the case of Shirokko and Akago. To me, that aspect of the world is what made the RP so damn amazing when I think about. Unlike a lot of others, it made it real. I really, really, like that.


So that brings me to what you've brought up. You are half right. However, you missed the state of the world. If you look closely at the overview, in every main land, the civilians far outnumber the ninja. In this RP, the ninja have been virtually wiped out. The Hidden Village are no longer the traditional "Hidden Village". They are safe havens civilians go to for protection. They are the new capitals of each land. So in this setting, the people actually do have all the power. Having a card/right-to-rule from the Daimyo is exactly what you'd want as opposed to one from a past Kage. With barely any ninja around, it's worthless. So to lead, you have to persuade the people, not the ninja. Daradei is loved by the people of Iwa, not specifically the Iwa ninja (but they have started to come around). Kinnosuke knew that'd be a problem, and that's the exact reason she's not Tsuchikage herself now. The people's love for Daradei, would trump the authority of her card.


In the case of Romi, the people would initially accept, but if she proved to be weak, then they would have wanted a stronger ninja in charge. It'd be a messy Civil War if she didn't step down.


You would be very right about this Quirk, if we were talking about the original Naruto, but you have to look at what happened in this RP to see how things changed from the norm.

This is a very good point. I'd never really considered how little ninja there were around. In fact, I sort of thought all the "civilians" were ninjas(who gave up being ninjas due to circumstance). Hadn't considered the hidden villages to be the capitals of the countries...especially since they're suppose to be "hidden"...but I guess given that this isn't the original Naruto it make sense to a degree. It would seem the Kakureyami's invasion must have been pretty violent of the people living throughout the country were driven to the hidden villages for safe haven. And if they made themselves the enemies of both ninjas and civilians.


I do love what you did with the rp. The realism was nice.

[QUOTE="White Masquerade]So to lead, you have to persuade the people, not the ninja.

[/QUOTE]
The ninjas are the backbone of the military. Not getting the approval of the ninjas doesn't help much in terms of war. Especially since it's the ninjas that the people fighting against the Kakureyami are fighting for. I thought all the fighting against Kakureyami was for the restoration of the ninjas and the revival of the "ninja way"...since it's the ninjas that the Kakureyami have a problem with. Hadn't considered them driving regular civilians out of their homes.


Though, if the God's simply wanted to reclaim their country...well I suppose it would make sense to side with the ninjas. The ninjas are part of the "people" too.

Maturity is overrated. If everyone was mature, didn't cling onto their grudges, etc there would be no conflict.


As for Shinsei and Dove, lol. I don't imagine any ship Shinsei's on would sail smoothly.


I've yet to decide Shinsei's final theme...and won't be able to until the end.

Frankly I was expecting and prepared for a lot more to have to be 'given up' but apparently Hoshie swept it under the rug quite thoroughly, there wasn't even a single manhunt.

lol. Are you asking for a manhunt?


Akago committed no crime. His only crime was not killing Shirokko when she rampaged...which I don't think anyone could accuse him of. If anyone's in trouble for that incident, it's Shirokko. Then again, she left no living witnesses of her misdeed(except for Akane and Anpan).


Chiaki might've suspected if did a bit more research into that event...but he was busy(in Iwagakure I believe). War makes it easier to hide crimes. It's a very simple matter to say the Kakureyami did it...and use Kumo Camp's destruction to further spurn on the war. Once the war settles, time passes, and order restored, I imagine some historians/truth seekers may be able to piece together the truth of the camp's destruction. Of course, by then, it hardly matters^^

I'd think that would the sort of time people in this type of society would hold him responsible, besides he said he'd take the rap for it.

He's a good guy. Shirokko ought be grateful.

@White Masquerade

Initially, I hated Fujiwara no Hidesato, but I like him a little more because his gimmick is Unlimited Rice Works. Aside from the yumi, Fujiwara also throws infinitely respawning rice bales at his enemies.​

I wanted Kouki and Rei to become 'friends'(as much as Kouki would recognise the term) cos I think it'd be fun and amusing to watch, but I'm not sure I got Luce to even get that far after presenting the idea lol

 

[Lucem]

It's not impossible for them to be friends. It would just be insanely difficult, since Kouki is Kouki.

If you don't already have plans for the afterstory, would you be willing to entertain some banter as to the viability of the possibility to Kouki and Rei hanging out and him trying out the whole 'how not to be an anti-social friendless grumpy teen' aspect to life xD

 

[Lucem]

Banter sounds good. I have plans, but they shouldn't prevent them from chatting.

 

[clarinetti]

@QuirkyAngel[/URL] @IG42


Actually, the destruction of Kumogakure preceded Anpan joining Akane on her travels, so unless Akago told Anpan about the event, he'd have no knowledge that it was Shirokko's doing. As for Akane, she's not likely to start bringing that up now unless someone starts poking into it, and even then her focus would be in defending the two jinchuuriki. Plus she's in a tight enough predicament as is with the Hoshie business to start causing trouble elsewhere.

Edit: I'm going to add Sakuya-getsu. She makes me think of a younger version of Sumire.

I hope this turns out as interesting as trying to teach Kouki the definition of love.

 

[Lucem]

Even as the main story comes to a close, you still intend to have everyone paired off... classic. Gotta ship 'em all!

Her persistence is something to be admired.

What's the reason for these choices?


Kouki has a vague idea about what love is. He just doesn't know much about the actual feeling, since he's never experienced it. The same goes for all emotions.
