I call it what it is. It’s steampunk fantasy. just like there's medieval fantasy. it is what it is.

lol. we have a medic named Mercy. with the FC of Mercy from Overwatch LUL i mean, if the GM is alright with that then it's cool. but that's just a little too unoriginal for me.

Might have steampunk elements, it has medieval setting, japanese settings, norse, Russian, Chinese, Indian, mythological, scientific, undead, egyptians and the like.
It's just fantasy, because they're ain't no other label that is broad enough to encompass what Warhammer, 40k or fantasy, is.
That's why iz like it so much, even if I love Fantasy better then 40k.

Though enough on that subject, I fear if we continue I will be forced to remove myself from this thread.

you know steam punk is an era. not a region, religion, or idea, right? there is nothing "just fantasy". That's waaaaaaay too broad which is why there's always a subcategory with it. there's Sci-fi Fantasy (which this rp looks to be or even Start Wars). There's Steampunk Fantasy (similar to fullmetal alchemist). Medieval Fantasy (Lord of the Rings, Narnia, etc.). I get the whole "don't be defined by labels" thought process but entire libraries use labels to organize their books and content. look up fantasy you gonna get a lot of results. narrowing it down helps those in what you're searching for and as a writer it helps keep you grounded in what type of realm of fantasy you are trying to adhere to.

I will stop here, I will not argue with you, as I will only end up with a foul temper. Ain't got anything to do if your right or wrong, I've got a long night ahead of me and right now I don't need to be worked up like this. Conversation ends here.

dude. 1. you started this. 2. you need to calm down on your hostility. you think of it as an argument i think of it as a debate. you being rude and sour and lashing out is what's making this convo go sour. if anyone should be worked up it's me. i feel the problem stems deeper and if you want to talk about it or something then we can take it to inbox. but don't start that rude sht. it's not wanted and not appreciated.

True, that is why I am asking you to end this conversation. I know I am growing more hostile and aggressive, that is why I've told you that I am stopping this conversation. I apologize for sounding hostile and rude, but all I am trying to do is end this conversation before it gets out of hand for me.
If it helps, let's talk about somthing else.

The light mage one.
Elekta Kount
Da Warboss
What ya plans for him/her?
Pai Chan

Well a a lot of it is still in the air. All I got that’s solid so far is what one of her weapons are and how it works. I’m basing a lot on what her face claim may look like. That’s why I need the date thing confirmed. Because I have a couple of different face claims at standby depending on the answer.
Elekta Kount
Da Warboss
I honestly say roughly 320-330years or so, but I’m doing like 4 years younger then soy’s character.
Pai Chan

That’s what brings me to my second question. For soys character does those years count for the years she was sealed? Like she was 23 and sealed away for 300? Or was she that old when sealed away since I’m guessing the watchers are kinda immortal in a sense they don’t age.
Elekta Kount
Da Warboss
Guess you could go with however old you want, figure out the age later. Though, you’d probably use the age to determine the face claim, so that’s what ya waitin’ for, ain’t it?

The Watchers weren't sealed at the same time as a lot of energy and even sacrifices were made in order to make them into Watchers. It doesn't necessarily have to be out of free-will that they were made into a Watcher either.

Did the watchers ever work together? Did they know they would be sealed off? I’d like to know a little more back story on this cause I don’t have very much to go off of as is atm
It’s more to figure out what era the person is from. I got someone that could be from the medieval era as well as someone that is from around our current time as well. Since the year 3011 is super far ahead it leaves a lot of room. The whole sealing thing seems like it’s not something that can be completely made up be all of the individual watcher authors and changed each time. It seems like it might be something important to the plot or at least a big historical event. It’s why I need to know that way no one has to worry about getting it wrong and having to rewrite it later.

I was working on that part. It's now up in the spoiler of the main thread. There's a bit of the background of the Watchers.

You might wanna change the text color, it’s really hard to see. It also may be my device, but I can’t see the images for your character.
