Ship's mess (OOC) [The Pirates of Penn'Zannce]

lol


Sweet, tomorrow evening ish (perhaps) I'll post my character. I'll be debating having the language for translation between the FA girl ^^ and the rest of the ship or not. xD
 
I'm planning to go with just Old Realm, as bad of an idea as that may be. Learning to communicate with normal people could be entertaining.
 
Very entertaining. I'm leaning to seatounge, but that might change depending on what everyone else has. I think it would be cool if you had oldrealm though. Would be fun lol
 
I was planning to just use it in the beginning, if nobody else could understand Old Realm. Afterwards I'd probably just stick to ordinary text to save time and effort, unless I wanted to distinguish between the two languages, which could help for character development...


Speaking of that, how do I handle a character gradually learning a language? Would it be okay for my character to gradually learn to speak a few words of Seatongue or whatever she's learning before I spend the experience and finish the training time, as long as she can't really communicate, and have the experience and training time represent learning enough to carry out conversations? Or would you rather she start learning how to speak the language once I spend the experience and the training time begins?

Learning a bit before spending the XP is fine.
 
I just realized that it's not possible for my character to start with both wings and Terrestrial sorcery, even with the bonus points from a picture, backstory, and Flaws... would it be okay if I say that her wings are injured or not strong enough to be of use, or something like that, and later buy the ability to use them with experience?

Yeah, that's okay.


Devlin, could you try shrinking that sheet's x-axis a bit? It's breaking the edge of my laptop screen, which is not a good thing.
 
Oh, how is the game starting? Do the characters know each other from the beginning, and if so, how long have they been together?
 
Oh' date=' how is the game starting?[/quote']With a battle. In media res is always good.

I'm thinking that Devlin and Myllinnia's characters have likely known each other for some time, but they've only just met yours.
 
Okay.


I should probably work out how they met my character and what happened after, then, before writing her backstory... she hasn't done a whole lot in the Second Age, and would likely cling to the first person she met that was able to understand her, so it could be important.


Myllinnia, do you know how your character would generally react towards mine? I was thinking that she's with the pirates basically because she's following Ce'Relinia, but I don't want to write anything involving your character without consulting you first.
 
Ce'Relinia, despite her past of destruction and killing xD , would find the girl only able to speak Old Realm and as well be a wingly she will be quite protective of her. Depending on the reactions of your character just how outward that Protectiveness will extend ^^ Either way she'll be friendly towards her. (Yay a wingly that won't go... oh black wings back away from me wyld tainted demon! xD )
 
Okay, thanks.


As for how my character would respond... well, to be honest, I'm not sure. Sometimes it's hard for me to say how my characters would act in certain situations until I start RPing them, which is why I'm starting to think writing up detailed descriptions of their personality...
 
Ya know... I don't know. It says Awakened can attune to stuff (I think I read you can't get the benefits from the Magic Materials but I'm not sure what that means to Heartstones as one can attune to a Manse)


Finding a pic is a pain. (I'll find a wingless girl and go with that I guess xD If only I could draw. ^^)
 
I'm very handy with photoshop, so if you find a girl without wings I can try and put some on her. No promises however, but I can try.
 
This should be fun. Both of your characters are awakened essense users, and seem to be much more knowledgeable then mine is fore sure. I think Shiva will like to have you around just so she doesn't have to think as hard. xD
 
If you have a particular appearance in mind for your character, I could see if I can find anything... I have some potential character pictures saved on my computer, and I know some places to look for more, so I may be able to help.
