The Elusive Cinder 1,328 January 21, 2014 Author Share January 21, 2014 Sorry about my slow posting and responding - I've been ill again and not had the motivation to keep up with things properly - so I've been focusing on keeping the actual RP ticking over with the posts I do put up. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up the slack once I'm feeling better. @, I've already got something pretty big on the back burner - you can RP him however you like of course, but just letting you know I haven't overlooked it - theres something big coming, even if it is on the distant horizon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IridscentNionios 1,412 January 21, 2014 Share January 21, 2014 So out of curiosity what's this about? How come you decided to make a sequel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Elusive Cinder 1,328 January 21, 2014 Author Share January 21, 2014 @, Heh, it's pretty hard to give a clue without giving everything away: but I'm going to be exploring the origins of the Litany- and by extension, magic itself. We started at canon lore and are branching outwards to more spectacular areas: and the light thing is just the very first step. @, Ronin is a big improvement as far as I can tell - but we'd need to see his finished page do make a decision. @, Uhm, where to start? Heh, Exploration and discovering a world that is far more vast than ever imagined. Ancient powers and moral conflict... at least thats the theory! Since we had effectively brought the first part to a nice rounded close, I hosted the new part of chapter two: once this stage is over and the scene changes dramatically again, that will be part three.

IridscentNionios 1,412 January 21, 2014 Share January 21, 2014 @, Maybe i'll join part three... can you give me a rundown of what happened in these two chapters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Sole~ 852 January 21, 2014 Share January 21, 2014 Alright, thanks for your consideration. I'll probably finish his page today. @ Here is ronin's finished bio.

Geek0zoid 1,467 January 21, 2014 Share January 21, 2014 @, After today, I'm probably going to take some time off from the site so I can collect my bearings again. Just telling you so you don't wonder where I disappeared to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverHeart 741 January 21, 2014 Share January 21, 2014 "I'll get posts for Orion and Canterlot up as soon as I can motivate myself folks - bear with me here please!"

Nomadic 210 January 22, 2014 Share January 22, 2014 @@Midnight Scribbler I'm sure that I've haven't mentioned his choice of 'profession' or background, and is actually one of the things I didn't actually plan on mentioning unless specifically forced to. Mainly because of the issues related to trust that would arise otherwise, fickleness is really not the best attribute to flaunt about, also I have be able to keep some things hidden for later.

The Elusive Cinder 1,328 January 22, 2014 Author Share January 22, 2014 @, Okay - so I've had a look over some stuff (because I believe in doing research so that I can make informed decisions) and I can accept Ronin: on a few conditions. He isn't the greatest swordsman ever - doesn't have implausible fencing powers and can't do things with a sword that would be impossible. Likewise, injury is treated as realistic. I say this because a quick google of 'one piece master swordsman' brings up a very similar looking character who is again, absurdly powerful. Effectively, if its on this page, its unreasonable: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ImplausibleFencingPowers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the capabilities and limitations of each. I'm not sure about Trickster but I'm just fine with calling bad swordplay out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Sole~ 852 January 22, 2014 Share January 22, 2014 Why do you automatically assume his powers are also based off of a one piece character too? His only similarity to a one piece character might be his personality in some aspects. And I know he isn't "the best swordsman ever", but that is his goal.

Tricksters Pride 100 January 22, 2014 Share January 22, 2014 (edited) Then how about you add his skills that way we know what he can do and that he isn't based off of said character, and also add a personality that isn't so identical to Zoro's. Not asking you to change the backstory (That is quite similar to Zoro's.) only to clear up Cinders concerns.

Not asking you to change the backstory (That is quite similar to Zoro's.) only to clear up Cinders concerns. I'll admit personality, I did base his personality in part off of zoro. but how is his backstory like zoro's? Zoro loses his best friend and rival in an accident, ronin's brother and master are killed by a swordsman. The only thing in common is that they both want to be the best swordsman possible. And cinders concerns are that I'm gonna do something OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAGESTAR 479 January 22, 2014 Share January 22, 2014 Hey guys, sorry if Crimson's dream was a little...stupid, due to the circumstances, but I couldn't really think of anything else interesting to do...especially feeling how I am now...I'm getting sick, and it REALLY sucks... Wow Ragestar. Nice long post there. Uh...sorry if this is rude, but because of my foggy head, I can't really tell...is that sarcasm, or an honest compliment? Because I can't really tell...hell, I could barely make sense of my own post, and I'm the one who made it! Again though, sorry if I sound like a jerk...

Cinder had it setup so that we could accept new members at anytime in the first one. I don't think that's changed as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
