Vampire/Lycan Signup Thread (OOC)

21-09-2004, 04:21
This is to be an ooc thread, until I have compiled all nations who want to be involved in this story. This story is from the idea from the movie Underworld. If you haven't seen the movie it is okay, I want my own storyline. But I am taking one thing throughout this story, the idea that a vampire and a lycan are in love. Kind of the whole Romeo and Juliet thing, but it doesn't have to end that way.

What I need...

I want to be of course one of the main character, even though we are all, but I want to be the vampire who loves a lycan.

I need the lycan who loves the vampire...I know tough cause they have to love my character....

I need several other vampires, possible elders

I also need several other lycans, possible leader to their clan

Any humans, elves, whatever I guess I am open to that.

Please, do give me the character you have in mind and a description of that character. This will be set in present time, 2004. Thank you for your participation.

------------------------------------

Alexis Mera

species: vampire, previous human

age: 271 in actual years, transformed when 21 in the year 1754

habitation: London, house of Demor

description: Alexis Mera, when she was human, was an Italian. She has very pale skin, more of a white cream complexion, which is contrasted by her dark black hair. Her hair is down to the center of her back and is wavy, almost in ringlets. Thick black eyelashes cast shadows on her face and correlate with her dark purple eyes. She has porcilean red pouty lips. When she smiled her white pointed canine teeth poke into her blood red lips. Her graceful neck flows upward, she appears very stuck up, especially with her small pointy nose. Her body is not much like her ancestors, she is very thin, petite and fit. Her skin is revealed and seems to radiate because she accentuates it with black dresses or black attire, depending on what she is doing at the moment; combat or play. She stands about 5 feet 4 inches tall.

extra: Alexis's history is of royality and she can let that get to the best of her. She knows much of her past and it does haunt her, she had a great life. She was to be heir of her father's throne and her people had loved her. However, her cousin had other plans for her. He had loved her, she did not return in, and well he punished her by having her turned. He was later killed by the vampire who had "raised" her. His black eyes haunt her dreams. She is now part of the Deathdealers, a group of vampires in thier house who search out and destroy lycans, their sworn enemies. She also is an ambassador for her house to other clans of vampires. Her personality traits will come out in the story.

Iuthia, good to see you back into action. I wondered when we would have a meeting again. So, a vampire. Thank you.

Griffon Lord, I was thinking of using different characters than the movie. You can still have the same concept of Victor if you would like. Yet, mold it to your own liking, call him something else, give your character a different concept.

I note that you say one can use elves or the like, even though they aren't suggested in the movie. Can I perhaps make a lone third party of a third type? What type of plotline are you working for here?

P.S. Can I join?
P.P.S. If I can't join as a third person, I'd be happy to join as a werewolf.

Elves? Are you serious adding Elves? That opens a whole new can of worms. Might as well have Orcs, Ogres, Trolls, Goblins, and Dwarves as well.

WhiteWolf did win their case against Underworld to get royalties for the ideals. So in a sense, why not do something with Changeling, or Mage, maybe even Exalted!

EEK! I didn't know I would create such a debate. Oh, guys that I have RPed with before (Tarl, Valient, Assington etc.) I had no idea of that thread, I was not invited. Oh, and this is just an idea from the movie, which came before your little story. Besides, you all know I am more into character development than fights, although, I am trying to expand my horizon. I would love for my old partners to join in, I always ignore your part and your familarity. As for allowing elves and the such, I am open to about anything. Besides it does need to be different. I am just a flexible writer I guess, or just easy to please. Valient you can be what your want, unless someone else goes for the "vampire lover" before you.

Thomas Carson (Rasvar)

Race: Human, mentally inhabited by demon.

Age:
Human: 26
Demon: 250,000 (approximately)

Habitation: London

Description: Thomas Carson is a diminutive man with a dark complexion. Looking more human than most, his only truely abnormal distinguishing feature are his abnormally long and thin fingers, though his eyes also sometimes reflect a bit more red than they should. He often wears a light red jacket over a t-shirt.

Extra: Thomas Carson had a very ordinary history as a physicist and part time author with a bit of an interest in the supernatural. During a "scientific" research project on "extra-universal energy" he ended up with a demon trying to take over his mind. With what turned out to be an extra-ordinarily strong mind he fended off the demon until they came to an 'agreement' in which he shares control of his mind with the demon. He is stronger, faster, and more perceptive than normal, though he hates the cold. Better pack liquid nitrogen in your bullets for this one. ;)

P.S. if this character is unacceptable, I'll go with the werewolf.
Valient
21-09-2004, 07:59
Ok, here is my character for a possible leading man, ATG.

Theoden Fenrir

Race: Lychan, Kantrawulves affliation.

Age: Human: 24
Age: Lychan: 312

Description: 6'2'' Theoden dresses simply for his work as a covert Lychan operative, one who works to disrupt the Vampire lines of battle. He wears normally a dark black outfit, but changes into a blood red suit when he is at rest or play. His hair is blonde, both as a Lychan and a human and as a Lychan, can changed to and from forms in under 10 seconds. His eyes are blue, and some say that they can see a greater power lurking beneath them.

Extra: Theoden is a Lychan who is tired of the fight between his kind and the vampires. He is reletively young for a lychan in the Kantrawulves, but has been battling for long enough to see that the fight is pointless, nay worthless. Whether it be the operations in Assington, or against the Hyraphore of Valient, he has been battle tested and battle-wearied. Still, he fights, and very ably, for the future that he hopes Lychan generations to come will see: where Lychans can live free of the horrors of war.

This sound interesting. I have "vampires" in my nation, although they are considerably weaker in some areas than the usual concept of a vampire, so that my region would let me RP with them without being accused of god-moding. My vampires, while long-lived and very durable, are nowhere near immortal, and though they can sustain a lot of injury, they can be killed just like any other person. They do not have any powers that are thought of as supernatural, though their senses are heightened, as is their emotional sensitivity. They can stand sunlight, albeit with heavy amounts of sunblock and usually with sunglasses. It is harder to become one than just being bitten. They are much closer to the "Moroii" (living vampire) concept of the vampire than the "Strigoii" (dead/undead vampire) idea that is what people usually think of.

This said, can I participate?

I'll join in on this too, I guess... Woot... I'm in both vampire/lychan threads!!!

Name: Avant Crusade
Species: Human/Lychan
Gender: Male
Age: 579 years old, born in 1425, turned in 1460
Eyes: Dark Brown
Hair: Black
Height: 185 cm
Weight: 83 kg
Biography: Avant Crusade was the Crown Prince of the Royal House of the Five Civilized Nations. After the death of his father and the day of his coronation, Avant collapsed, a dreadful collapse, the result of some bizarre nervous illness that had suddenly and inexplicably destroyed his nervous system. Unable to perform any actions, Avant refused to be coronated, passing on the throne and the crown to his brother, Modan, who was coronated a week later.
Meanwhile, Avant slowly withered away, dying slowly from the disease that had crippled him. One night, as he was preparing to die, a werewolf stole into his chamber and with a kiss of her fangs, turned Avant into a lychan. Blessed with a new life, Avant left his home and wandered the world with his newfound friend, the lychan that had saved his life. As Avant and his new friend arrived in the Holy Roman Empire, the female lychan disappeared.
Disheartened, Avant settled down, searching quietly for his missing companion...

If you're going to allow fantasy, I suppose I should oblige that and let the opportunity at least be used, rather than see it go to waste.

Name: Seviraloth
Race: High Orc
Title: Orcish Knight
Clan: The Red Blade
Age: 28 Palladium Years (High Orcs live around 90 Palladium Years)
Height: 7'3"
Weight: 293 lbs (refined muscular physique)
Hair: Bright Orange, wears long and tassled
Eyes: Red

Seviraloth is a veteran of the Clan of the Red Blade, a devout Clan led by a Mad Crusader named Riga in service of Lopnel, the God of Conquest. It is filled with Holy Warriors, Priests, and Paladins in the service to complete conquest of all things. Seviraloth is actually a member of Riga's inner council, and has ventured with him on past adventures, including the Wazzu Arda expeditionary force, the armistance against Balraga, and the Great Liberation war campaigns, and has assisted as a courier across middle Arda.

He is a trusted warrior of the Red Blade, and his Orcish Splint and Skells are imbued with a Divine force of the Red God. He apparently knows little to nothing of humanity, and is rather interested with the animal. He is currently focused on what diseases it carries, for fear if it infecting his own peoples, so removed from history.

His wife and son where brutally attacked by a large creature. After looking at the footage some hidden digital video cameras he had on his lawn, he saw the attack made by a lycan.

Race: Callisdrunian Moroii (living vampire)
Gender: Female
Age: 24
Eyes: waist long and black
Hair: black
height: 5'4"
weight: 108 lbs.
Bio: Born into the most mysterious of Callisdrun's vampiric families, she grew up with rumors surrounding her. Like many in her family, she found Callisdrun's donor system (Callisdrunian vampires do not need much blood in order to survive, most have human friends who give them some) to be lacking in thrill, and so her brutal escapades in the bordering anarchy of Altar Rang have become fairly well known. She served a one year prison term for violating a technicality of a law during those forays, but is now out and continuing her... hunting. Her personality is split between the extreme ends of the spectrum. On the one hand, she can be a very warm, sensitive, friendly person. On the other hand, she can be psychotic. In Callisdrun, she does not stand out that much, she wears a simple faded black trench coat over a black shirt and pants with boots and the customary one-handed battle axe at her belt. On formal occasions, she wears a dark red dress.

Name: Karnath Kal'Dregan
Species: Kindred Vampire
Generation: (Approx.) 5th.
Clan: Ravnos
DOB: Late Roman Era (Roman Empire)

Desc:
Roughly six foot two, maybe one hundred eighty pounds. Fit and muscular, with strong facial features. Tends towards loose pants, tight shirts, and a jacket. Nomadic Loner, known to appear in times of great strife, seemingly with the sole purpose of causing great strife to become even greater strife.

----
Now, if you'd prefer a Wolfy, then I can do that, too.

Name: Brian O'Callaghan (Brion ó Ceallacháin)
Tribe: Fianna
Age: 35
Auspice: Philodox

Desc: A recent arrival from the Emerald Isle, Brian is about five foot nine, maybe one hundred sixty pounds. He has brown hair, freckles, and gray-green eyes. He is a skilled bard, either with his flute, or with his unaided voice.

In wolf form, he appears to be a gigantic dire wolf with gleaming black fur. His hybrid forms have black fur as well.

He is a powerful man, for all of his relative youth. His skill at battle has put many a warrior to shame, his silvered tongue is the equal of almost any of the rogues and bards.

His disgust at the corruption of his beloved isle has caused him to look for a new task to set himself too...

Anyways, whichever one you'd prefer, either one oughta be damn fun to play.

is this VtM? May I join?

I'm going to use my favorite character by far who attempts to make an appearence in all my RPs (I consider them alternate universes, where the same people end up in different situations), but he's really based on a VtM character I did once, a long long time ago.

Pavel Andreyev
10th generation Caitiff Vampire
1774-1805
Sire: Unknown French officer at the battle of Australitz
Eyes: hazel
Hair:sandy
Height:5'9"

General appearence: Vaguely attractive, but not startlingly so, you might glance at him once or twice in a nightclub. He never really stands out in any crowd, always looks suitably attired. Very nondescript. Whenever he doesn't need to look nondescript, however, he dresses very well, with impecable taste. A bit of a dandy.

Supernatural Abilities: In adition to normal vampiric abilities (impervious to normal weapons more or less, sharp teeth, ect) he has srtong abilities in Obfiscate, celarity, and domination... for those of you who don't know VtM, that means he can hide really well and occasionally change his appearence, moves frighteningly quickly (and more importantly THINKS frighteningly quickly), and can command you by locking eyes with you... of course, that doesn't always work, and he only ever really uses it to wipe memories, but it's useful.

Mundane abilities: Learned knifefighting in the slums of moscow, and shooting in the Imperial Russian Army as a light infantryman. Since then, he's kept up to date in both skills, and is quite a reasonable sniper (his natural skills aren't terrific, but he's technically excelent and doesn't need to worry about heartbeat or breathing throwing his aim off) and an excelent streetfighter. He can't drive, and is terrified of horses, but is extremely literate, cultured, and a an excelent diplomat/lier. Also learned pickpocketing in the slums of moscow, along with burglery. Used to be quite a good cook, but is out of practice (though he makes a mean blood sausage).

Personality: He's a sociopath. Has no real empathy, and has trouble understanding the emotions of others. However, he has worked out a sort of guide to the emotions of other people that let him know what's apropriate or not. Though he's sociopatic, he's very intelegent and can easily read people... he just doesn't always make the conection between what they're feeling and why. He doesn't kill for pleasure but has no trouble doing it.

Despite what it seems like, he's actually quite friendly and charismatic. A good speaker. This makes people get attached to him easily... at least until they realize it's all an act...

He can be loyal if you earn it, but usually just counterfits it for his purposes.

Okay....here we go.

Name: Virgil "Berserk" Enk
Species: Human/Lychan
Gender: Male
Age: 126
Eyes: human: Blue/Grey crinos: Red
Hair: human: Black, single streak of silver crinos: black fur, white stripe all along back.
Height: human: 6'7" crinos (big humanoid wolf): 9'4"
Weight:human: 269 lbs crinos: 558 lbs

Biography: Virgil was born into a normal farming family. One night, all but him were slaughtered by a vampire. Enraged, he set off across the country hunting the creature. Along the way, he was assaulted by a werewolf, and was turned. He kept up his hunt of vampires, hoping to find the right one. Got involved with various Lycan organizations, continually using his abilities to hunt and kill vampires.

He is a particularly large werewolf, often using his size to get the better of his opponents. He picked up the nickname of "Berserk" when a fellow lycan observed him tearing a vampire apart piece by piece. The other lycan commented,"Berserk, aren't we?" in a sarcastic tone, but Virgil liked the sound of it. He kept it, and tries to get others to call him that. Most call him 'V' 'Virgil' or 'Gil'


Weapons: Carries a greatsword he took off of a fallen vampire. He has worked long and hard to master using it when he is changed. Very powerful. (He stays away from heavily populated areas because of this sword.)


(White Wolf: Basically a Red Talon (different colored fur) with high physical stats, carrying a damn powerful sword. My usual character in WW games).

Quite so. 'cept if WW made a WoD movie, it'd be quite a bit better, methinks. But, anyways.

Yeah, Imitora, 's cool. It just so happens that I prefer WW's WoD stuff to other systems or types. The only nice thing about 'direct from the movie' rip offs is that I could make Brian considerably older. But it doesn't bother me either way.

Now, if you have a problem with WoD influenced characters...

Then you can, quite frankly, take a short stick 'n Pike It.

And a vampire werewolf? Outragious. Michael deserved to die. (The UV bullets also pissed me off... vampires are easy enough to kill as is... werewolves always have the advantage unless it's a vampire eldar. I've always considered it as a fight between cats and dogs. The cat is smarter, prettier, and more agile... and the dog has 400 pounds of pressure per square inch of it's mouth and weighs 5 times more. End of discussion)

Quite so. 'cept if WW made a WoD movie, it'd be quite a bit better, methinks. But, anyways.

Yeah, Imitora, 's cool. It just so happens that I prefer WW's WoD stuff to other systems or types. The only nice thing about 'direct from the movie' rip offs is that I could make Brian considerably older. But it doesn't bother me either way.

Now, if you have a problem with WoD influenced characters...

Then you can, quite frankly, take a short stick 'n Pike It.

Ahh, hell, I'm jus' jokin'. Anyways. Topic.

No worries at all. In fact, all vampires in Imitora follow V:tM rules, and the Cammerilla has a firm hold in the vamp community. Of course, the government and the Vamps leave each other alone.

Though I love the vampires in WOD, what really blew my mind was the magery... such an elegant system. So simple... so destructive... so seductive... If I ever were to include vampires in Chardonay (a limited possibility given the level of surveilence available now) they'd be WOD and the mages too.

Valient has a point.

Sure, the way 'e phrased it seems written solely to insult, the way it begins with 'Being as I'm better than you,' but, really now, seriousness aside, a thread like this with a strong basic storyline can work with a large character-base, if the base storyline is stuck to.

But, of course, that is just my two cents.

But, of course, being as I am neither 'in this thread,' nor have I 'RPed in this 'type' of thread many times before,' my opinion is, apparently, worth nothing.

Now, I know that sounds harsh, and it's meant to be. If you didn't get the message, I'll put it out plain and simple: "The fact that you have more posts than me does not make you a better RPer."

This is possibly the -stupidest- post I've ever written, I should be ashamed of myself...oh...well.

Name: Max D. Amage
Species: Werewolf
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Brown
Height: 185 cm
Weight: 95 kg
Biography: Max grew up rather uneventfully, his child was dull and boring he left high school early to "see the world" this mostly intailed riding around the country side on his motorcycle, constantly seeking something. It wasn't until a few years later when his body and mind had hardened to life on the road he found out what.

It was moon lite night or so he tells it when he was riding down the dust filled waste land to... well thats now important anyway then this truck plows straight into him hurling him off this cycle and on to the desret dust lying their body broken in the desret in a pool of his own blood he heard voices. Appearntly dissuing weather they should "have some fun" or recuit him assuming hes alive, he knew one thing no good will come of them and he could feel something welling you inside of him something primal, it made the plain go away, drowning his hearing with the solid thumping of his heart it gave him the strenght to rise up off the ground and to see the faces of those that disussed his fate so casually. When rose he their face and more importantly their fangs he recoiled in fear. Then "it" spoke

" well it seems our recuit is worthy of becoming one of the immortal dead" with a fang filled smile.

Then there was only noise. Max awoke the next day naked, clovered in alone in gore with only the head of one of the dead and some tartard remains lay around him.

He took the truck, and drove until it ran out of gas and ran out into dersert he didn't know what happened he didn't care he just wanted to get as far away as possible. He collasped again in the desert.

But was found, by the lychan with explained to him what he was, who he is and what he was seaching for.

He is Storm Hammer Thurge of the Get of Fenris

Chardonay

It's from a RPG set in the World of Darkness. Caine was the origional vampire, and he created progeny, who created more and more vampires. However, , any child of a vampire is weaker than the sire. So the higher generation, the weaker the vampire. Most vampires being created today are 13th generation, which are pathetically weak compared to even a 10th generation. The few 14th generation ones are barely vampires.

Well now, about that being screwed if you have to fight a 10th gen thing, I disagree entirely. A powerful werewolf is a match for almost anything up to an elder (6-8th gen.)

For example, Brian, the Fianna I described earlier (and who features in my latest post...) is Karnath's equal (in combat...) If you didn't get it earlier, Karnath is 5th gen, over two thousand years old, and concurrently, a Methuselah. Of course, neither Brion nor Karnath specialize in combat, but they are far from weaklings.

My reasoning is thus: Being a nine-foot monster most assuredly compares favorably with being an undead bloodsucker.

But, anyways...

Heh. Hehehehe... you think I'm going to let my character fight you hand to hand? Noooo... claymore mines, autoshotguns, sawed off shotguns, grenades, barret AMRs, blocks of C4, and desert eagles are what Pavel will pack. Preferably with silver tipped ammunition. If you insist on getting close, then I'll use souped up Tasers, chainsaws, and various sharp silvered things. Flamethrowers would be interesting too, but I think a two edged weapon. And have you ever wondered what teargas or pepperspray would do to something with as exquisite a sence of smell as a werewolf?

I feel I need to write a bit about the V:tM perception regarding my High Orc here.

The world of V:tM has no fantasy-based creatures. So actually coming face to face with the likes of Seviraloth, there will be a lot of denial on what exactly he is. V:tM is based on a clan warfare between vampires. Any attack on any Vampires is easily assumed to be on the part of another clan against them.

This is a list of what 99% of Vampires whom see him may conjecture:

1. By the methods of attack, the brutal nature, and the openness of attack. The creature is a Gangrel Attribu.

2. The uses of magick makes one believe that the creature is an experiment by Clan Tremere.

3. A Nosfertatu; plain and simple.

4. Tzimitze Fleshcrafted Minion sent to lure and assassinate.

5. Some new lycanthrope creature that is excessively bold.

This allows Seviraloth to be kept a somewhat mysterious entity (which I desire. I don't feel there is any evidence to prove what he is, and I really dislike the basic "it's an Orc" thing in this environment where creatures have lived millenia and never seen one, rarely heard of them (and those that they have, are Tolkien Based, so there's absolutely no correlation between that and what Seviraloth is)). So I find it hard-pressed for any vampire or werewolf or human to know exactly what or why Seviraloth is and his purpose here. I find it almost impossible for anyone to look and immedately say, "Orc."

It just kinda bugs me here, sorry.

RazielHex: How would a High Orc manage in the World of Darkness?
V:TM-GM: what is a "high orc"?
RazielHex: <<--High Orc
V:TM-GM: ok
V:TM-GM: uh, not very well?
RazielHex: The weapon there is called a Skell
V:TM-GM: would get hunted down by hunters
RazielHex: it's an armored gauntlet with dual-fin buckler and 6 foot blade
V:TM-GM: or clan tremere would want to use him for experimentation and possible embrace
RazielHex: But do you think, considering the High Orcs strength, intelligence, and physical endurance (both of which exceed the limits of a human)
RazielHex: one could manage as a rogue third party agent?
V:TM-GM: no
RazielHex: no
V:TM-GM: clan brujah, gangrel, tremere and possibly even ventrue would fight to embrace him
RazielHex: Despite the fact that its blades could easily tear a normal vampire in twin
V:TM-GM: hunters would try to kill him
RazielHex: twine*
RazielHex: And they carry two, since they're near ambidextrious
V:TM-GM: he wouldh ave to be faster than the vampire
RazielHex: If they used celeirty, no
V:TM-GM: and if the vampire has any fortitude, the chances of that happening become slim
RazielHex: but not every normal one has that
V:TM-GM: okay, but why would the clans send the lowliest person on the ladder to embrace him?
RazielHex: They wouldn't all *know* what it is at first
V:TM-GM: so he goes through a few vampires
RazielHex: there'd have to be a surviving agent that met against it to tell what it is
V:TM-GM: or the fact that they're all dead would say something too
V:TM-GM: and yougner vampires use guns
RazielHex: Which I think can be easily deflected by the gauntlet shields
RazielHex: wonder woman style!
V:TM-GM: how many bullets though?
V:TM-GM: from how many guns?
V:TM-GM: from how many angles?
V:TM-GM: ^_~?
RazielHex: High Orcs are excellant military leaders. ALl understand complex and advanced tactics when facing any enemy
RazielHex: Such as, don't get in a shaft against bowmen

Raz-Kun: What sort of creature would a Ravnos Methusela be?
V:tm-GM: uh,...a vampire?
Raz-Kun: Well
V:tm-GM: whom is at least 1000 years old
Raz-Kun: would the Ravnos have any interest in the High Orc mentioned in the last conversation we had?
Raz-Kun: You said the Gangrel, Tremere, and Brujah would
V:tm-GM: the what?
V:tm-GM: the high orc?
V:tm-GM: what?
V:tm-GM: OH
Raz-Kun: but now in the campaign I have a Ravnos Methusela on my ass
V:tm-GM: that
Raz-Kun: And I am wondering
V:tm-GM: no, a ravnos methuseal would not give a shit
Raz-Kun: why would a Ravnos Methusela give a shit about a High Orc
V:tm-GM: a ravnos in general wouldnt give a fuck
Raz-Kun: they're all too busy jamming to Crux Shadows
V:tm-GM: they're all too busy fighting for their clan's survival
Raz-Kun: Because it's a dying clan?
V:tm-GM: absoloutly
Raz-Kun: Explain
Raz-Kun: I don't go much into deep WoD Dogma
V:tm-GM: uh, the uhm..whatchumacallits..
V:tm-GM: i dont have my books with me
V:tm-GM: the camarilla
Raz-Kun: Yeah
V:tm-GM: they and the sabbat decimated the clan when they were both formed
V:tm-GM: after the anarch revolt
Raz-Kun: Both clans hate the Ravnso?
Raz-Kun: Both..sects
Raz-Kun: I mean
V:tm-GM: clan ravnos used to be uber feared
Raz-Kun: So they're kind of like that third sect
V:tm-GM: ..they're independent
V:tm-GM: ravnos, assamite, followers of set and giovanni are independents
Raz-Kun: there's the Sabbat, the Camarilla, and then there's this other thing mentioned
Raz-Kun: that started with a C or something
V:tm-GM: a C or something?
Raz-Kun: yah...I forget
Raz-Kun: anyway
V:tm-GM: theres teh cammarilla, the sabbat, and the independents
V:tm-GM: anything besides the first 2, are independents
Raz-Kun: I think I'm getting confused with the clans. There's that clanless clan
V:tm-GM: caitiff
Raz-Kun: yeah
Raz-Kun: that's what I was thinking of
Raz-Kun: So everyone hates Ravnos
V:tm-GM: pretty much
Raz-Kun: they're hunted by both sects
V:tm-GM: not hunted
Raz-Kun: and the other independents
V:tm-GM: but they arent liked at all
V:tm-GM: gangrel hunts them
V:tm-GM: because ravnos claims a similar lineage with gangrel, and gangrel doesnt like that
Raz-Kun: I wouldn't think so
V:tm-GM: they're both feral clans
V:tm-GM: and actually they do, because gangrel made ravnos
V:tm-GM: but ravnos used chimerstry to make himself an antediluvian
V:tm-GM: chimerstry is the ultimate discipline because it warps reality
Raz-Kun: makes illusions
V:tm-GM: at higher levels it changes reality
Raz-Kun: This Methusela claims to have 8 dots in it
V:tm-GM: what game is this?
Raz-Kun: just some campaign
V:tm-GM: yah well, if he's not changing the physical fabric of everything, he's bullshitting
V:tm-GM: i dont have my books with me..so i cant give you the full details on chimerstry
V:tm-GM: but, in LARP, no one was allowed to play ravnos except on explicit okay by the storyteller
V:tm-GM: because they can get too powerful
V:tm-GM: we had 1 ravnos once
Raz-Kun: If he's using Chimersty to make several illusions of himself to attack someone
V:tm-GM: and after a year he was teh pwnzor
V:tm-GM: so we killed him
Raz-Kun: would the illusions have a smell?
V:tm-GM: if he wants it to
Raz-Kun: Is it possible to smell an illusion
V:tm-GM: your thinking about it on a 3D, physical, scientific sense
V:tm-GM: you haveto stop thinking scientifically
V:tm-GM: because your dealing with a vampire
V:tm-GM: vampires transcende science, so they dont play on the laws of physics
Raz-Kun: http://www.patman.org/wod/disciplines/chimerstry.asp
Raz-Kun: No, I mean as
Raz-Kun: If you recognize the scent of the vampire
Raz-Kun: and he makes an illusion of himself
Raz-Kun: would you be able to "smell through the fake"
Raz-Kun: I am guessing he has Fatuus Mastery
V:tm-GM: the problem is, the disciplines are all written in the books as forms of attack
Raz-Kun: Also Also Also Also!
V:tm-GM: which degenerates them down to just special attacks
Raz-Kun: This Methusela claims to also be a Justicar
V:tm-GM: when thats not waht they are
V:tm-GM: bullshit
Raz-Kun: That doesn't make sense
V:tm-GM: it doesnt, because its retarded
Raz-Kun: because aren't Justicars like bad-ass policement for the Camarilla
V:tm-GM: clan ravnos isnt a member of the camarilla
V:tm-GM: yes
Raz-Kun: and wouldn't the Camarilla pretty much KOS it?
Raz-Kun: KOS = Kill on Sight
V:tm-GM: there is 1 justicar/clan
V:tm-GM: KOS?
V:tm-GM: no. i just said they dont hunt them
Raz-Kun: But they wouldn't, by any means, admit them into the Camarilla
V:tm-GM: they would admit individuals
V:tm-GM: but a ravnos could never be a justicar
V:tm-GM: because clan ravnos is not a member clan
Raz-Kun: Because the clan isn't accepted
V:tm-GM: a ravnos could be a uh...what is it..

Sorry to pick at you Revenia. I am kind of a rules lawyer (which makes for me being a good G.M., but a suck-ass player)
Revenia
08-10-2004, 05:20
OOC: Alright, chummy. Firstly. I agree with you entirely that a Ravnos would -never- become a Justicar. In canon. But. That whole 'have to be ten dots' thing is bullshit. Complete. Utter. Bullshit. Wanna know why? 'cuz only Antediluvians can have 10 dots in a trait. 5th Gen Methuselahs are maxed at eight.

But, anyways. I believe I have cleared up almost every point you have made. He is -presumed- to be fifth gen. He carries a roman cavalry sword (but made out of Damascene steel, which wouldn't have been developed for quite some time...)

Anyways. I understand entirely what you're getting at, but you haven't told me anything I didn't already know. Now, presuming that you're buddy the GM is an alter-ego, then you can bite me. I'm exercising something called creative license.

See, I never played 'clan clone' vampire characters. Far as I'm concerned, Ravnos have a clan discipline, are of Roma descent, and can get addicted to vices. Otherwise, nothing. (Further, I don't actually own the Ravnos clan book, so I'm not quite so up to date on the background. Aight?)

Now, if that precludes me from, in your eyes, playing the character I've written, I have no problem, and I'll remove myself from this RP.

And as for the illusion bit, he was using a combination of Horrid Reality, Fata Morgana, and Apparition. Meaning that to Seviraloth, those illusions were not only entirely real, they were quite capable of hurting him. Then, we simply project the images outwards to show the effects.

('n, as a side note, I think I'll go on record as stating that the clan books tend to just muck up the game. I prefer playing with just the core rulebook. Which, incidentally, was what I was doing.)

Now, if you have a problem with the way I wrote my character, which, you obviously do...

I have no problem with pulling Karn from this RP. Currently, I feel that my presence will probably only muddle up the storyline even further, but I'm willing to run with it.

Oh, and inform your MENSA-Level Alter-Ego/Friend/Acquaintance/Idiot Goth that he/she/it can take a swan dive into a vat of hydrochloric acid. The world would undoubtedly be a better place for the removal of that particular aberrant mutation.

I personally don't know too much about Whitewolf stuff. So when I need things clarified, I turn to people I know whom do know a lot about this stuff. This contact of mine is NOT MYSELF. It's NOT AN ALTER-EGO. It's an actual other person. That's a chat log I pasted in notepad, and did a Find & Replace to take out their SN to keep their anonymity.

I personally have no qualms about anything. I just didn't have any clue about some things, and asked that person to enlighten me over what they (since they're an experienced WhiteWolf Larper and storyteller), would hypothesize over motivations, and tried to get some advanced understandings over terms I didn't quite understand or know about (as you can see in my basic questions. They're not biased, but have a tone of wanting to know).

Furthermore, we then went into a discussion over werewolves as the Children of Gaia, as well as the relationship between Gangrel and Ravnos. I can say, fully, that these Werewolves in this RP right now are some awfully gimped (some may say: nerfed like a Bounty Hunter in Star Wars: Galaxies) beyond hope, and that a WhiteWolf Werewolf could easily tear through most Vampires. They're only dying out from what she told me was something called "Wyrm taint" and that, if anything, they could easily win the fight against Vampires. The only thing that keeps it a stalemate is the numbers of the Undead.

THis isn't anything to be said as an insult to you Revenia. I was just attempting to involve a third-party to gain some clarity of your character. I didn't say they would be the end-all know-all, but a somewhat large amount of what I was told was accurate to a point. (I especially found it interesting on how Gangrel was the one whom embraced Ravnos, and he used Chimerstry to make himself an Antidiluvian. The Gangrel clan are currently the only ones whom actively hunt out Ravnos. Otherwise, All other Clans are completely prejudice against them, and this is why they're almost completely extinct). I am still intrigued to Karnath's true motivations of why the Orc would spark his interest (especially because there would be coteries just inside the Camarilla which would fight each other just for the right to embrace him {Tremere, Brujah, Gangrel}).

I don't feel you need to do anything in response to this. I just felt you should have knowledge of the existence of the conversation and know that I'm trying to find some things out. Seviraloth isn't the only stranger in this world of darkness.

I personally don't see the confusion.

I can say what all happened pretty clearly.

Then again, this RP is split into two scenes and based on two different times.
The majority of confusion is because of this--^


I'm not trying at all to focus into what I am not involved within, and perhaps that's why I'm still level-headed.

I am using Seviraloth's knockout as a foil to catch-up timewise to the next day, where everyone but Amanda, Revenia, and Imitoria are.

Also..in response to the last comment in the IC thread (Whom said that Seviraloth was Over-Powered):

...He's the only mortal character in the RP right now. He doesn't have any special powers and is bound by both physics and nature. Unlike Werewolves, which are faster, stronger, have heightened senses above him, and can take a phenomenal amount of damage (much more than he can, and he is wearing ARMOR), and unlike Vampires, which have incredible psychic powers, can fly, and are able to master (if using V:tM) supernatural disciples, albeit the fact that they are nearly invulnerable to 90% of attacks launched at them, I'd say that Seviraloth is pretty low on the chain overall. He is just been in ONE SINGLE CONFLICT. He's used....TWO ATTACKS. One wasn't even successful! He tossed someone whom jumped over him at another person coming at him, that's not even Matrix-worthy.

Then again, he's getting a lot more attention than I expected..

Please try to keep OOC in the OOC thread.

Extremely good idea.

OOC that clutters the IC interrupts the storyline in effect.

It also dismays a lot from the goings on and tends to confuse the players as they lose track of what went on.

She tracked me down, yes.
Note: She was the only one whom actively chased me.

Apparently Karnath had been watching Sev's movements all along and he's into it.

As far as I am concerned, it's just those three.

Like I said, I haven't paid any attention to those whom aren't directly being involved with my character. As it is, I'm not confused in the slightest.

no, he's actually not. My vamp is a type I basically made up that does not live forever. Why did I do this? So that I could use vampiric characters in regular RP without being accused of god-moding. She probably won't be eager for a run-in with your guy, though, cause that's not her only weakness.
Revenia

Heh. Raz, my friend, I never meant that as an insult to you. I was having a bit of a bad night, y'know what I mean? But, I'll agree with your buddy that the werewolves in this RP are -severely- gimped. The Children of Gaia bit is particularly funny, being as their all pacifist peaceniks...(unless some tribebook says differently...)

Anyways. Maybe I ought to go a bit into Karnath's background. His real background, not the stuff you might learn from investigating him, (which would be the stuff I put up in that char profile earlier. That might be learnt from a high-up Camarilla contact or somesuch.)

Here we go: Karnath Kal'Dregan is old. Unimaginably old. He has alluded to his origins being in the Late Roman Empire. (By late, I mean, specifically, the period under the rule of Justinian, 527-65 A.D.) This is false. The man who would become Karnath Kal'Dregan preceded Justinian's rise to the crown by about six hundred eighty years. (Coincidentally, this would place him around 2157 years of age. Which seems about right. For those interested, this means he was born about one year before the destruction of Carthage.)

There is, of course, a good number more details involved, many of them important, (Such as how he became a Justicar: on that, suffice to say that it involved Inner Circle power struggles, a number of attempted assassinations, the final death of a number of Gangrel, and a lot of confusion.)

VAMPYRIC NIGHTSTALKERS
12-10-2004, 10:48
Name:VAMPYRE NIGHTSTALKER
Species:Vampire
Age: 32 Human - 600 Vampire

Weapons: Katana

Background: I was born Nial Nightstalker some 650yrs ago in England, I am not sure exactly when as my years as a human are very vague, whereas my vampiric years are so clear. I fell in love with a noble lady named Sarah Nelson who I was to find out later, was a vampire. On my night of change we were attacked by Lycan.... I was still too new and weak to help and Sarah was destroyed. I discarded my human name and took the name VAMPYRE that night. I have dedicated my life to wiping the scurge that is the Lycan.

My hate for them is such that I have stayed a loner, roaming the world hunting where ever I find traces of their evil.

I have sailed the seas, trained under Japanese Sword masters, Kendo & Aikido masters, I can fly any aircraft built.

I believe in looking in the eye for the kill, close and personal so that I will be the last thing my victim or enemy will see before I take their life. I consider firearms as dishonorable.

I was assisted in an ambush against me by some Lycan by some of your clan, and was invited to meet the elders.

I am 6'1" Long Dark hair With a dark black eyes and very pale skin, my eyes have been known to mesmorise mortals with a glance. I speak rarely, but with a cultured english acent.

Golden Simitar, your character is really over the top. I like it! He just takes the cake he does.

Cyberutopia, just a bit of a question... your human and demon, are they in harmony or discord? Or are you working on a completely different set of assumptions about demons? Just a question... you seem to be a bit similar to my character... but certain comments early on seemed to point to discord between your two characers (one character)

P.S. Dear High orcs, upon reading the description of your second character, I had a most delicious thought. A plan, so to speak, that might prove of interest to both of us. Interested? Contact me over a Nation States Telegram... it's just a thought.

Alaqria: It's actually vampire and demon, but that's ok. The three sides (vampiric, angelic and demonic) of David are generally in harmony when it counts, but they argue incessantly whenever they have a chance. One of ATG's characters, an angel known as Rashel, had her life force absorbed by David in an earlier story, and her conciousness is generally quiet, though I suppose if ATG wanted, Rashel could pipe up. It's way complicated. The demon that has possessed David is actually the embodiment of precisely one half of the Earth's balancing energies, and Rashel is the other half, they combined and David became the incarnation of the World Seer, so on and so forth. Our characters are rather alike, it would be interesting if they met.

Interesting. Those three sides are like the three points of a triad I made to differentiate spiritual personallities... the triametric opposites. Yes, I suppose it would be interesting if they met, though I'm not sure how. Rasvar is more representative of strong yet lasting energy really... no 'balance' to speak of really... except what he's gained from Thomas. After the possesion they rapidly became very like minded... though their goals remain different.

And what did I mean by what I said Simitar? You're character is now trying to hold someone of imense power at the point of a gun and ARREST HIM! It's wonderful! It's absolutely marvalous! With power like David's I'm not saying that he really would need to go along with it, but for Richard to actually be able to work in these conditions, it's wonderful! Perhaps he isn't the most powerful player here (in fact I rate him right near the bottom next to characters like mine) but he is surely the one with the best... oh what word should I use... mental workings? It is simply marvelous the way you write him.

17-10-2004, 19:06
Alaqria: Yeah, I love Simatar's characters, always. I thought it would be a nice turn of pace and amusingly unexpected if my character, who is admittedly a little overpowered for this roleplay, simply gave up in order to get into the deathdealers' mansion rather than aggravate them by attacking. I'm trying to take a more psychological warfare route in this RP, rather than my usual head to head style with David. I often neglect his mental potential, so now that's going to change. We'll see if I can get through the RP without flinging another blow, hm? That's a nice challenge for myself.

High Orcs: Well, considering Rashel was Amanda's character before I took her over (with Amanda's consent, of course), and Amanda deemed she was an angel, I think I'll go with her. Take it up with Amanda if you disagree.

Admittedly it was Luzja you attacked, and my aggresion was quite inobvious to him, but still, that's kind of funny (to me at least).

Thank you, but I think everyone has done a marvelous job. Each person has thier own style. ASSINGTON VAMPIRES 3 is the first Rp I have done without a human, I'm Rping a vampire in that. But I like doing completely or semi clueless humans.

It was easy for me to do on my first Rp, so I have kept with the formula of clueless or semi-clueless human, because it is a group overlooked in vampire Rps and Rps along those lines. Most humans in these kind of Rps are expericanced hunters who know what they are dealing with and what to do.

I think it is always interesting to have your run of the mill human, whose only ambition in life is to have a family and make it to retirerment, but who is thrust into a world he knows nothing about. I personally think it makes the Rp a bit more interesting to have an "outsider" view to the situation.

Hey High Orcs, do everyone a favor and back off. ATG is working her ass off trying to juggle this with her life, and you're not doing a whole lot for her mental well-being. I cannot see how it's sooooo very important that the characters don't know your character is a form of Orc. The only thing that bit of knowledge is affected by is the action narrative people make, and it's a whole lot more convenient and interesting than "strange creature."

"Yarr, there's a strange creature!"
"Yarr, get the strange creature!"
"Yarr, I got owned by the strange creature!"

Please. It doesn't throw off the continuity of the story, and if your orcs are sooooo very different than "orcs," then it doesn't harm the abilities of your orcs anyway since they're sooooo unusual! I remember your earlier comment about being a great GM but a horrible player. Here's a chance to improve. Let it go.

In WW Games, Vampires still need torches and flashlights to see in the dark (but maybe my ST is just a bit picky), without powers such as Heightened Sense and such.

(Save Palladium Vampires, but those are..well..I won't go into those!)

I guess it depends on the vamp in question then. I have never played WW, but one of the few strengths of my vampires is that they do not need any sort of vision aids for seeing in the dark, and my vamps are pitifully weak compared to the ones most people have, so I would assume that ATG's can see fairly well in the dark.

Obviously there's no way to be certain w/out asking ATG herself though.

This is true, he did not ask me, he just assumed. I think that is what is happening here. But you know to make things just be better, High Orc you are right and I am wrong. Can we just move on? I am not familar with these WW you talk about nor have I ever RPed with Melkor, so I do not know these things and from your post it was obvious that they had no contact with humans.

*shrugs* It's pretty common knowledge if you check regional profiles. I suppose we're so wrapped up (Ardans & Prussians) with the Great NS Cold-War (Metus vs. Yut) that most of us don't really go into RP's like this. My involvement here is somewhat innovative.

Of course I don't like to have aggruements. I like to think of myself as a peaceful person. But I really haven't done any RPing besides this game. No time for others; I rarely have time for this. But thank you for telling me about them. I do consider myself a "newbie" at this; I have only been RPing for about two and half years. I am still a work in progress, in fact I think you can never stop learning. I know this from experience; I am in nursing school and I know that education continues way and beyond your degree.

I am glad you tried something different. I have done different RPs differently, like space ones. Yet, I have not thrown myself into war RPs; I just don't agree with them. But you are more than welcome to stay with us. I do enjoy your posts and look to see more from you. I think this would be an excellant story if we all just compromised, but I understand that this is an utopian story. But yeah, anyway...

Amanda, have you talked to Valient? I don't want to be pushy or a jerk, but my character and the story can't really do anything without Valient's character, unless your vampire wants to have something with my character...
Alaqria
24-10-2004, 02:01
Well... the obvious thing to do is to do something to determine *whether* he's in or out. I suppose the smart thing to do then would be to ask him (if ATG hasn't already). A letter must be written. Elegant and not pushy... not suggestive of any ill will... and certainly demanding of response... if for no other reason than we need to know. In other words, I really can't write it... it just isn't my style.

However, I shall now post a draft for the rest of us to make editations to. It's pretty obvious that he isn't watching the thread anymore... and if ATG *hasn't* informed him (as he asked to be informed when last he posted on this very OOC thread) then such a letter must be written as such. Please make corrects, or suggest your own letter... and let's all get our brain power together to make this the kindest... nicest... least pushy of letters we can make it... shall we? So here's my try.

Dear Valient.

Concerning your last post on the "vampire/lychan signup thread (OOC)" we have started a new thread which has been significantly cleaned up in comparison to the old thread (though it admittedly is not restarted as you originally requested). This thread has been in progress for a while, and it you have not joined it... though whether this is because you did not know about it, or you still felt that the disarray of the previous thread had been carried into this one is still unknown.

Members of the thread are now waiting. The plotline where Theodin meets Avant has been out of progress for a long while (though the characters still watchfully remain). Our lack of knowledge in this has led us to a problem though... we still do not know the precise reason you are not posting, and therefor are unsure of whether we should merely wait for you, or try to carry on as best we can without you. If you could please inform us, it would be a great weight off of our collective minds.

Thank you for your time.

I figured why waste more time worrying about it. But I haven't heard back from him yet. Lets cross our fingers.

Oh, I can understand why Alaqria used those two (vamps and wolfies). Mainly because we have a problem if he doesn't continue with the story. For the vamps, who will be Alexis' soulmate and for the wolfs, who will be interacting with Avante.

So, generally speaking these two groups need him. I am not sure if the human or the orc would be totally involved with him at this point.

Ok, I am willing to try this thing once again. Like the TG said that I received from ATG. yes, I didn't post because the previous incarnation of DA left such a bad taste in my mouth. As well, keeping up with this OOC thread, that taste has not been washed away. What the hell is people arguing about Orcs and Vamps and Lychans, and their stats? STATS?

Your request has been heard, and your request shall be answered! Just remember that you asked for it! It's time for:

THE ALAQRIAN NATIONAL 49 POSTS IN 1 POST:

Previously, two scenes got mixed up. Well... none of that happened. Instead, there was a heated exchange between Richard Simitar (the lone human) and Andrew (the Vampire Death Dealer) and a slightly warm exchage between Richard and Luzja (the living vampire). Richard held them at gunpoint until Marcus came along with a few goons and told him to stop... at which point he dropped his gun (or put it away or something). Meanwhile, the victim of the night's hunting... coincidently my character (who had been attacked by Luzja and had pretended to be unconscious listened in, and at this point snuck away to find a friend of his who had also been attacked (with the intention of helping and then preparing for the next day which was already in progress). Suddenly David (the Demon Vampire played by CyberUtopia) attacked Luzja, and though he was deflected could well have killed her. Richard arrested him (David let Richard arrest him) and Richard handed Cyberutopia over to the vampires for questioning. Upon questioning, David revealed that his goal was peace between the Vampire and Lychan groups, and also that he can be very annoying and has an abrasive personality. Richard refused to go along with a plan that David communicated to him (mentally) and I'm beginning to wonder if Richard has some sort of anti-demon instinct (or alternatively just goals that are counter to David's). We left off in the middle of that.

Meanwhile Alexis (your future vampiric love interest) fought Seviraloth(the orc) and was knocked unconscious. At this point the Justicar Karn finally decided to reveal himself, and using incredible powers of force Seviraloth was forced to retreat... where he eventually knocked his head against a wall and blacked out. Suddenly, another orc appeared, sent to re-inforce Sevi (mind if I just call him Sevi?) with great skills and a fistful of super-cool equipment that apparently still doesn't bring them to par with any group here.

Finally, Alexis and Karn left back for the vampire's home base, and are now discussing the strange and unknown creature that they just saw.

That's it, as far as I know.

26-10-2004, 05:20
Personally I'm alright with this, but this does leave one very important thing: a power vacuum. Alexis needs a new Lychan love interest... stat! And maybe, just maybe... Theodin should be the Lychan that is captured instead of Avant? It would be terribly convenient for getting him out of the storyline, though it might disrupt some plot devices, so I'm not so sure. We'll have to figure it out, but it adds up to one question, does Avant want to get captured. Well Avant... do you?

Some brainstorming must be done on the plot. Ideas?

I think I am going to pull my freakin' hair out. Not that I have enough stress in my life, but the freakin' fantasy world is chaos. Well, this is a lesson to me not to depend on other people. I messed up big on this and well I realize I work better with no plot in mind then having one. Sighs....

Well, this just stinks. I am not supposed to worry about this, but my school work and jobs. Man my social life is less stressful than this. Trying to please other people just isn't working for me online. I understand Vaient that you are bowing out of this. But it seems that this is happening a lot with stories we are involved in, it just makes me wonder. Plus, we haven't even finished Dreams and Tarlachia has been back for a long time now. OH well...I am diverting...

So, Alexis needs that counterpart so we can bring the lychans and vampires together, possibly with the help of David *cyber's* character. As for Theodon, we can just pretend he never existed because he wasn't even involved in this story. So, as for the rest of you I don't know. If you want to stay great, if you want to leave it is okay.

But I do agree we need to plan something...

Well, I don't think that Theodin can be written out completely, but we'll have to try. Let's see what we can do. We have several options: Kill him, capture him, make him indisposed of, and let him fade into obscurity (I'm sure there are more). Just pretending he never existed? I'm really not sure that's an option at this point. I think however something is needed to interupt their current scene, as there is no way Valient can respond (him not actually being there and whatnot). An attack, perhaps me being discovered and a comotion happening... perhaps... hey, it's the next day... maybe high orcs could russle up some sort of distraction (he being another creature of the day) or Richard could have tracked them down... maybe Theodin was the one he was searching for for all we know! I could go insane and need to be killed and take Theodin's life with me! There's Luzja... tracking down Avant could be a mission of hers! (she is okay in the daytime after all). Something! Anything! Throw out your ideas everyone, please!

Cyberutopia is not being cooperative. I see no way to end the current situation other than having Lujza injure/kill David (Cyber, you might not admit it, by Dave's in a position of weakness), and that's not what I want. If she gets all wound up in some stupid fight between her and David, it will greatly delay and possibly prevent me from having her do some stuff that I intended.

Hey, I'm back! I've been wrapped up in school everything lately, so I haven't had anytime to participate in, much less think about, this thread. Cal, I'm sorry if I'm tying you up too much, but I'm trying to get everyone pissed off enough to just whack David upside the head and capture him. That's what I've been trying to do the whole time, get my character captured. So now that can happen, thanks to Simatar taking the initative. It's fine that you knocked David out, by the way. I know my character is in an unfavorable position, but I play my characters as detached from my own thought process as possible. Therefore I would like it if you could all understand this, and stop accrediting David's abrasive personality to my own personality. I am trying to be as coöperative as possible by letting you all do whatever you want to David in order for him to wind up in the deathdealer's custody.

About tying Cal's ideal storyline up, I'm sorry, but if you can't find a way to move on, and I'm in a position where I can do nothing but react rather than help you with moving the story on, then I see no reason why it should be accredited to "my" lack of cooperation.

I am so amazingly stressed by a myriad of other things right now and I really, really hate it when people cannot see when I'm trying to get somewhere as fast as I can with the disadvantaged position I've been placed in, and they wind up blaming me for having my character be uncoöperative in the minor role I've managed to weasel my way into.

I'm sorry, but I'm too stressed to deal with this in any large capacity right now. I'm angry enough at other things at the moment to go on a huge rant at you, Cal, but I'm smart enough not to. Just understand this much, at least.

In short, please stop trying to force me into a pattern of doublethink by blaming me for a slow part of the story, and then reminding me that I'm in a subordinate position where I really can't do anything about it. That's what it feels like to me.
Callisdrun
03-11-2004, 23:12
Sorry for sounding angry, Cyber. I just didn't see what I could do to move the story along, because it's very hard to predict what another person's character will do. I thought that if I had Lujza do anything to David, it would end up just getting her killed, which obviously, I don't want. I didn't want to have Lujza kill David either, because killing someone's character before they have a chance to do anything is kind of an asshole thing to do. I was trying to have Lujza get David to back down a bit, but Simitar's plan works too. I was just frustrated because nothing I did seemed to work.

I am not a good RPer, I'm not good at taking the initiative, partly because I'm very afraid of being branded a god-moder, and so my style, what little there is of it anyway, is mainly to react to other players' actions.

And no, I did not have an ideal storyline, just a bunch of ideas that I thought might be cool. I was trying to get there without too seriously injuring any character, as well. It just seemed like you were trying to get David and Lujza to fight, something that I really did NOT want at all. I misunderstood the intentions behind the character's obnoxious manner (very well RPed character, though).

I have no idea where to go now, I'm pretty discouraged, so I might try to get Lujza killed off or something.
Alaqria
04-11-2004, 04:13
Well, it's nice to see you all back (to a degree). I would like to take dispute however with the idea that Callisdrun is bad at RP. On the first really high class experience RP board I ever played on, there was a rule. No killing, hurting, or writing for the characters of other people without their permission. You may have noticed that early in the first deathly attraction thread I made an OOC comment where I gave Simitar *permission* to defeat my character. That type of thing was done.

And Callisdrun, in my previous story lines, no one ever had a plot. Winging it with cool ideas is the basis of Roleplaying.

Finally, yeah, Cyber, I understand. I'm trying to get my character to come off as a lot calmer and creepier than I am in real life. Winging it is the basis of roleplaying. Being someone different is the purpose of roleplaying. That said, shall we continue?
The Golden Simatar
04-11-2004, 04:30
I agree with Alaqria Callisdrun, you're a great Rper. I've enjoyed Rping with you quiet a lot.

You never know what is going to happen in an Rp, heck AVP took a few twist I never expected, and I hosted it. That is why it is so much fun, you don't know what the other person is gonna pop on you.

The reason why I hit David over the head is so Lujza could drag him to the other vampires in the mansion and get that moving again. You can still do whatever you wanted to do with David there.

Now, let us continue with this wonderful Rp.

Considering Valient left, I don't think he'd mind. You'll just have to figure out how to pull it off... but I assume that won't be too hard. Perhaps Valient tries to kill you for suggesting that Vampires and Lychans should live in peace, and you have to kill him in self defence?

I wasn't talking about the ease with which Valient could be killed by Avante. That's simple, unless there was some extreme chance that took place, Avante would win hands down. The difficulty I was speaking of was integrating the event into the roleplay. And now that he's got ten werewolves and a demon/human outside what's he going to do about it? Will the werewolves outside try to kill Avante? Perhaps they will see it as a fight for the place of Alpha male and become his followers...

In other words, what are you going to do to fit it in the storyline? I don't think you'll have too much trouble. After all, you now have temporary control over both characters.

Well, to tell you the truth. It does not make any sense to have Lujza and Richard comming into the mansion. Alexis already does not trust her and they have to worry about werewolves instead. She would not allow a human in the house at this state of choas, especially from someone so new. So, most likely she would kill off both that is her personality.

Would this do?
