@Buck Testa

Sorry if it took me so long to post real life man keeps beating me down.

@Denim&Venom

Sorry if that seemed op but he does specialize in gravity manipulation.

[Passion 3,478]

Please do not create a boiling pot with all the characters in one place. We had 2 groups, now 3 if we include the newcoming characters.

 

But I'm slowly observing a merge going on, and I guarantee it will create a mess if we don't stop it now ;x people waiting for other ppl in group etc.

I'm having Ira detach herself from the events for now, unless someone is willingly going to search her out for any reason. Ley is waiting for Particle, but she cannot hear what's going on between Dru, Particle and ... sorry Denim, cannot remember your character's name from the top of my head yet.

 

Plus, we need to think about passage of time. Fast forward everything a day/few days/weeks/months even. Let people be creative with adding stories which happened during that time, not everything has to be roleplayes out or we will never let GMs progreas the story they have in mind.

So it would be great if you had targets ypu wish to achieve for today and point out when you'd be ready to fast forward. I know new characters might need a few posts, we have duel to be arranged probably, though it would still makes sense for beraucracy to take a few days.

 

Ira is pretty much free to go with the passage of time, but I need Ley to get stuck in her library and probably her dorm later on.

 

Hope it all makes sense?

As long as my professors get to "demonstrate" how the dueling system works.

Sure, But lets at least get into the dueling field. One thing I do tend to find irksome about rps is they never know when to cut to the next scene. There is a reason they edit stuff out in books and movies and what not.

@Buck Testa

I agree my friend

[dragon4111 914]

@Buck Testa@Duality@Arid_Blitz@Khajiit @Denim&Venom

So I have an idea for Ghalan I want to run by you guys.

Duly noted. Proceed. 

[dragon4111 914]

@Buck Testa@Duality@Arid_Blitz@Khajiit @Denim&Venom

So what if thanks to his best friend's death Ghalan when pushed against a wall Or rather pushed to far. His darker emotions start to take hold slowly. his brutality starts showing. Toying with his opponents? and maybe caused an incident when they were younger. Maybe accidentally injuring Duality? Or one of their fellow teachers?

@Buck Testa@Duality@Arid_Blitz@Khajiit @Denim&Venom

So what do you think or no?

Toying with Druantia, you mean?

[dragon4111 914]

@Buck Testa@Duality@Arid_Blitz@Khajiit @Denim&Venom

Well no in a future fight or something I'm just saying an idea.

@Buck Testa@Duality@Arid_Blitz@Khajiit @Denim&Venom

But maybe glimpses during the dual.

[Mentis Soliloquy 3,024]

I hate doing this but alas it's why I have a pink name.

@dragon4111 @Denim&Venom

Both of your last posts are too small and need adding to.

This goes for everyone here, check the length of your posts they have to be more than 800 characters in length and this does not include quoting other people either, 800 of your own characters. I don't want to keep reminding people of this, otherwise, I'll have to take more serious steps to prevent this from happening in future. 800 people, it's not hard. 

 

/\

That needs to say 800.

[dragon4111 914]

Ah wait hold the phone most of my posts were in the 776 variety but I fix them.

@Mentis Soliloquy

@Mentis Soliloquy

Hmm maybe because the mentions also count as part of the character minimum?

[Mentis Soliloquy 3,024]

@dragon4111 I didn't include the mentions, though it's not against the rules it's good practice to write 800 before adding mentions. But your post seems fine now. 

[Canteen_the_unstable 7,963]

Ill post i promise just feel weird this week

Sounds interesting. 

I'm currently a good few paragraphs into a post, but it might be a couple of hours before I get anything up. A lot's been going on while I've been working on these projects. 

 

Amended: my post is now live.

Apologies all for the run-on sentence that makes up basically the entire last paragraph, but there's information in there that applies to everyone mentioned. Brace your eyeballs.

Fixed. Though you may want to adjust yours now.

@Denim&Venom

I think he may have also been referring to the 'St Elmo's Fire' post, which remains literally two sentences.

And undo the continuity that is everypony else's post? Now why would I take such a risk like that?

... because them's the rules?

I mean, you could just spend a paragraph solely adding more detail to your characters, their surroundings, and everything happening around them. Retcons aren't a necessity.

[Buck Testa 5,503]

I'll be making a post some time tomorrow. I'm not particularly fond of typing long posts with my phone. 

[dragon4111 914]

@Buck Testa

Now buck a word of warning if what Dru says to his question isn't good enough it just might tick off Ghalan.

[Buck Testa 5,503]

are we finally doing this? He's in the Arena now. Do I need to wait for someone to say "fight" or something? @Duality @Denim&Venom @dragon4111

Waiting on @Mentis Soliloquy. Miko was talking to Katrina as they, and presumably the rest of the students, assemble at the arena for the combat demonstration and first duel.

Ira is pretty much free to go with the passage of time, but I need Ley to get stuck in her library and probably her dorm later on.

Ach, sorry about that; I somehow entirely missed this interchange even though I posted just after it ended.

Testa, your timeskip is possible, but Passion and I still have a library chat to get through beforehand, which is looking like shaping up to be quite lore- and character-building. This should only take a single (collaborative) post, but probably one long enough that it'll take a while to work out. 

You can timeskip to the arena and @Denim&Venom's professor/s explaining how duels work in the meantime (a lot of the delay around getting you your duel is that you're RPing the groundbreaking character for a formidable chunk of lore; duels are a quite integral part of the school's operations and this one will set the standard for any more to come), as long as him and @dragon4111 are okay with it, but Duality needs to be there for the actual duel (she signed off on Druantia participating in a duel even though she's a minor), so the fight itself has to wait at least until Duality and Ley are done talking and I can speedily storyline the professor to her seat in the arena.
