The Principle Journey OoC ( For all players )

[Shin Positron Laser]

I always have a hard time coming up with origin stories. My problem with them is that it makes me want to do a full on timeline to explain every single event, and that just becomes tedious for me. I don't think it matters if the origins is original, or not, since I think people enjoy solving the roleplay's mysteries, regardless of its originality.

I understand that sentiment. I cover up the lack of origin stories with a 'well known legend' of sorts. I also try not to explain every single part of history, sometimes, players help invoke some current events whose origins can be conjured into the history later. History repeating itself as they say.

Well, i do mean like naturally emerging ones.

ones that are there from the start are fun as well, hell playing a husband in a husband wife team in another rp.

That's cool. lol that would be great to have a husband-wife team among the players here. Maybe I will go hunting in the 1x1 threads lol

If it never works out for your character, you can always say that they married some random village girl in the roleplay's epilogue.

Ah, yes the Chrom route.

 

[Reinhardt]

I do find it unrealistic or at least extremely difficult for romances to develop in RP's that are not specifically 1x1 such as ours. Many times romances in group RP's become a 1x1 conversation for dozens of post with them falling in love in a matter of minutes RP time-wise. I have personally never experienced or read such romances in fantasy RPs like this one.

Which is one of the reasons why romance is part of the genres, I would really like to see one develop.

That's the thing, though. It's extremely difficult to pull of a romance subplot, and that's what makes it fun. Imagine the conflicts and the high potential for character development waiting for that shit.

Yeah that's what I try to do with my roleplays as well. I allow others to contribute to the world/lore building, cause they may see something that I don't. I used a 'well known legend' cliché involving dragons for one of my group roleplays, but no one was interested in it.

A husband-wife team sounds interesting. There's so many possibilities to interact with that type of couple.

Ah, yes the Chrom route.

It's better than the lonely route.

In east rp, Yesult has already given Volkan the eye and she even has felt jealous about him in first meeting. I look forward to see them building a different relationship step be step. I liked that post and even thought maybe they can keep it slow enough to bloom in the end of journey.
Honestly, I've been thinking that if Orchid survives till the end, she won't be the same person again. I wonder if she'll be eager to return to her church or live as a priestess for rest of her life.

 

[Neon Valkyrie]

MJ ._.

Aw, thank you, and here I was hoping for a little competition! Orchid was cute when she was fawning over Volkan!

 

[Orikanyo]

I will get a post out tomorrow, sorry, exam this Thursday and needed to focus upon it, but once it's done. All will be well.

Technically it's Thursday right now...

But who's keeping track aside from the whole world eh?

I sensed that too. But Orchid isn't as cute as Yesult. Wouldn't it be funny if Orc irritates Yesu unintentionally? She is going to take good care of stewards kindly and regarding that currently we've only a pair of male stewards, causing misunderstandings won't be hard~

Already cooking up shenanigans eh? Sounds like fun!

I'm not sure about it, but you'd better stick to your studies for now.

Would be doing the test right now if the damn prof would get here.

So cool! I'd be too nervous to check my cell if I were in your shoes.

got my laptop open and been studying away for an hour and a half right now.

She'll be here any second, but theres not much material to cover in studying.

As such, I'm being nosey and pokeing my head in to see how folks are doing. While relooking over my notes for the fifth time.

Waiting for 1.5 hours for an exam could kill me. How irresponsible can a prof be to delay that long. Would you mind to tell us which subject that is?

I'm sure you're going pass with flying colors.

 

[Orikanyo]

thats if it all sticks in my head/she gets here.

 

[Orikanyo]

Well, it went well enough.

Now, i'll be getting a bus ride home and then I will post.

But what to do, join the others for dinner? Go fishing on the docks?

Who knows.

Dinner and dancing. Good time to just unwind and really chat before plot moves us along with a giant sea monster nuking the village

Guess Marc should go fishing to get a drop on it eh?

Go down in history as the greatest fisherman.

Lol trust you to trigger events.

Anyway a good tell about my plots are that if I mention it in OOC its more than likely not going to be that.

I like catching people with their pants down....figuratively... when it cimes to plot.

always count on ori, in everything.

except in certain aspects.

 

[Orikanyo]

Marc psot is up, decided to have some thoughts on the situation, and get some fishing done.

As stated, feel free to pop on over if you want your character to, otherwise, he's just waiting until the alarm bells ring XD

 

[MsPolite]

I have actually found it difficult to 'start' the romance from scratch. When MsPolite and I decided on the Antarah x Belluam relationship, we made it so it was already established. They did not have to go through all the motions and all that. We simply went with the fact, and added in past events as we went along.



Salty comments are quite... tasteful lol.
>_> ..............<_< ...............V_V

also, ouch. Hope you feel better soon.



Wait for it. That gemstone will become some sort of interdimensional pocket that will suck him up until someone breaks the damn thing 1000 years into the future, revealing that Elegos was actually a proto-earth seeded with life by the humans ancestors from millions of years ago.

Or you know, random rock.

hey there Shin, i was away due to having morning sickness really bad and was unable to write well. I still have it but is a bit more manageable

 

[MsPolite]

Btw how have you been Shin? Missing me? lol
and Hello to all new people
