Fantasy The Five Kingdoms - The Fall of Sarthenfall - OOC

[Xanto]

xD alrighty lol

so..i’ll take that as a yes

Sigh, uh can I admit something ahead of time?

shoot, bro

 

[madame moiselle]

I’ll post tonight.
Also, considering our posting rate, I’ve decided to let someone else join. Me and an old friend have been talking, and I believe me may be getting some more plot twists and surprises down the road.

They’ll likely be joining after the two month timeskip, once her character his approved. (Also, seems like we’re getting another male character, ladies!)

I'm that old friendddd and I'm excited to be part of Sparrow's RP and to be rping with all of you - all of your characters are absolutely to die for!

 

[Bakuyoshi]

So first off I do feel like this is more my fault for not saying much, I should've mentioned it as a pet peeve yet never spoke up due to fear of sounding like an ass, and work had me floored. But I do actually hate the idea of rolling for outcomes, I find it a copout for the characters actually thinking of stuff. And this may just be me, but my interest in the capture the flag thing has been... well I''m no longer interested in it. It could've been fun yet with the rolling it killed my interest, it kinda makes me happy the vote happened because I honestly feel IRL we could've been stuck in the rounds for a few weeks. I like a good RP of Capture the flag, hell I played it once in a Monster hunter RP on another site. And it involved lots of thinking, both in and out of character, and it was lots of fun because there was no pre determined victory. I had fun even though the team my character was apart of lost (Aerial bowgunners man). Because we got try all sorts of crazy ideas, some worked, some didn't.

This is just my humble opinion though. I should've brought it up earlier and that is entirely my fault there. I'll still try my darnedest to have fun with this last round. And I honest to god don't want to sound like an ass, I honestly don't want to ruin the fun and it seems like you guys honestly like this. I still like the RP and love Cale and every character here. But I just think this a little down moment in the RP for me.

I know I'm not technically in the RP yet, but first of all, you don't sound like an ass - I frankly agree with you, especially with such setting and characters, it could've spiced up the game a lot. Who knows, maybe you all could try your idea for the last round just for the fun of it?

 

[Bakuyoshi]

Also hello Esther, sorry for you to see my Rant when you first came in. I'm Baku, player of Cale and Aversa.

 

[Ms. Sparrow]

Gaaaaah the poll is at a tie right now. This complicates things. Anybody up to change their vote? Half of us want to skip the game entirely, the other half wants to play to the last round.

Frankly, I don’t enjoy rolling much either honestly, but considering this would be a one time thing in the roleplay, and I wanted it to be fair, it seemed to be the best.

Yes, I think your not the only one suffering from the slowness of the capture the flag game, I think it’s unmotivated a few of us, I agree. Honestly, it’s the only time five will be used for this RP(and our characters won’t need to play the game again) but thank you for offering your own thoughts, if this last round is played out, which will be determined hopefully tonight, though if it remains at a tie a choice will have to be made. I apologize for the slowness and difficulty you’re facing in the RP currently.

 

[Bakuyoshi]

I'm not going to lie I hope it's skipped outright. It's still a majority call and I'll go either way (As best as I can for the game anyways.) Plus you have me too hyped for my instrument of evil to finally be unfrozen and do evil stuff.

Also no need to apologize. I should've made my thoughts known when the decision was being made. Inaction itself can cause a problem. We all had a choice to make our thoughts known and I never brought mine to light.

 

[explosiveKitten]

You know, alright I’ll change my vote, I’d really hate for this to stall anymore

Welcome!
pretty sure we've rped before. Nice to see ya again *gives a slight wave*

Not your fault at all. Thanks for letting us know, man.
The dice was a fair way of deciding which team won. Potential ooc drama (people arguing why their team should win) was avoided. Apart from that, there was no other reason to use dice. Smooth rp functionality was prioritized in that decision. The games ARE taking longer than expected though..

Logical: Please skip the rest of the game. Losing interest in any part of an rp is a sign to move on to the next point on an agenda. Plus, the game doesn't really touch on the plot.
Personal: Please skip the rest of the game. Impatience is my true weakness. Didn't expect these matches to take weeks, but any longer and it could get out of hand.

Also, explosiveKitten switched a vote!

 

[Bakuyoshi]

OK sorry as I say this, I looked at the time since the first posts of the game, 11 days. (May edit but will check again just in case)

Edit: Yeah that was since my first post in the games. Since they began (Jets post) 13.

 

[madame moiselle]

Ms. Sparrow Xanto Bakuyoshi

If we are skipping straight to the two-month skip, then I better get a move on on getting a CS up lmao - not to mention all these evil plans/plots I keep hearing about? Can someone fill me in on that? (aHEm sparru)

Oh also hey Baku! I also recognize you Jet, but I can't remember what RP or where (since I had taken a big hiatus before Sparrow called me on).

Yes, it’s been slow.

Ooooooh they’re all secret, courtesy of my evil planning. Though Azalea’s flashbacks you may want to read up on, they’ll give pretty big hints on what started this whole mess with the Shades.

 

[Ms. Sparrow]

It seems we’re in vote for the big timeskip. Be prepared everyone. It’s about to get very dark.

Can’t wait to see your character madame moiselle !

(She makes pretty good CS sheets imao)

 

[madame moiselle]

Yes, it’s been slow.

Duly noted - btw I'm working on my CS guy right now and I'm determined to finish most of it tonight, so expect a new CS tomorrow!

Ohhhh it’s a GUY?! Those are a rarity around here

 

[madame moiselle]

Ms. Sparrow

Also, since my guy is a descendant of Soris, he has to have Soris's familial last name - which I couldn't exactly find anywhere so I made up one : Kovacs (ko-va-ch). Is that cool with you?

 

[Bakuyoshi]

Spoilers!

 

[Ms. Sparrow]

Great! The post should be up tomorrow considering it’s a lengthy post.

Also, totally forgot to bring it up. The kings line started with Fergus Calistair, and then many generations later, Soris Calistair, is the last name is Calistair, I’ll be sure to include that in the name when I have time!

It looks great! Accepted.

For those in concern of the magical item, don’t worry, I already clarified it couldn’t be used/magic use until the opportunity arises later in the roleplay.

Spoilers lol.



Anyhow, time to start writing, large timeskip post and all that.

 

[Bakuyoshi]

Wait magic will be a thing later on in the RP.

 

[explosiveKitten]

Wait magic will be a thing later on in the RP.

Magic items

 

[Bakuyoshi]

Still awesome. Will there be any restrictions when the time comes? Any effects off or on the table? Could I get a magic item that can summon a companion?

 

[madame moiselle]

Bakuyoshi

Wait, everyone will have a magical item? How is that gonna work out?

Ms. Sparrow

I read up on Azalea's flashbacks (very well done by the way) and judging from it I am trying to get the idea of what the plot will be at this point but honestly I got no idea lmao..

 

[Bakuyoshi]

Sparrow is something wrong? That is the second mention I got in the IC.
