Tales of the World: The Radiant Age (PARAGRAPH FORMAT!) OOC

[Augla]

Well, hopefully more people will join us once we start going, but I'm gonna be starting the RP pretty soon. Keep your eyes open for a new thread!

EDIT: I got really bored and... well, here's the main thread!

Let's RP! (There's still chances to sign up... Heck, I'll accept signups up until the final boss battle... XD)

Ha ha, so now my task is going to be juggling two RPs at once and not confusing details between them... XD

Well, now that it's up... I'm going to make my first post with Norah and Emmet toni- I mean, this morning (since it's now midnight)... I'll work on my evil character when I get back from my trip on Monday or Tuesday. And I request that no one interacts with my characters yet until I return (so no one would have to wait for me to respond back).

Edit: Never mind, only got a post up with Emmet's intro. I'll get up Norah's when I get back.

Well, it's not like my characters are close to where yours are, Sil-Sil, so no interactions from me.

Yeah, time for me to start the first "boss battle" of the RP... *shot*

Well, Lanwynn's quite close to Vistol, (Halfway between there and Alcarth,) but she's not moving very far until she's caught herself a decent meal and found some drinking water. For the sake of reference, how much of the map would be traversable in a single day;

On foot,
On horseback,
By ship?

Also, I have Lanwynn's introductory post pretty much ready to go. I just need to go over it a few times to make sure it's okay. Saving Thor-kun for last, as I'm having trouble coming up with an introductory premise for him. Any ideas to help a fellow RP'er out?

As discussed on MSN, I said it would take a little less than half a day to walk from Vistol to Alcarth, so you guys do the math. Horseback is a bit faster, but who here rides horses? (Besides the Vodani sisters, seeing as the have a horse on their farm.) As for ships, nothing is as fast as the Van Eltia in the other RP, so going across the world is going to take much longer. Should be... I dunno, 5-6 days to get from Alcarth to Eurobadalla if you don't go off the map (the off-map area is a VERY treacherous area that nobody goes by anyways. )

Or in simple terms...

Each square of the map takes

12 hours on foot
6 hours on horseback (Hey, you mentioned horses first, so I'm gonna use them as well.)
Very roughly 12 hours by ship... (VERY roughly, judging by your example.)

Finally got Thorynn's story going. What do you think, everyone? Other than the sucky writing, that is... *shot*
_________________

[Akashic]

I didn't think your the writing was sucky, Sapphie. ^^ Though now that I got up my post with Norah, I kind of wonder if it turned out okay. ^^;; (didn't write much with Emmet, since I wanted him out of Mandaj)



Btw, I've also changed Norah's starting location from what I have up on her CS... since I've tried working off her location in Alcarth, but I couldn't come up with much to write with her there. Though with her noticing the dragon flying overhead to Raisin Volcano on the boat, I was able to work off of something with that and expand my post (hopefully in the future, she'd have something to do there). ^^ (That's why I've mentioned to Augla that having the starting location in the CS wasn't really necessary... considering I'm having my characters name/locations at the top of each of my posts)

Edit: And I'll get working on the Bane character now... Hopefully it will be up soon... >.>
Edit2: Or maybe not soon @_@... almost 1:30 am and I'm too tired to work on her history and personality. Though if you want her name, it's: Ezri Zamira.

Well, the starting location just gives us all a sense of who might be near one another as groups start to form.

...Though nobody's really met up yet... XD

And all right, I'll update the name ASAP.

I really need to start working on a post for Arc. Absolutely nothing's been done with him yet... XD

Given the direction Thor is heading, Jewel's location and Lanwynn's location, I would imagine those three will be meeting before long. And I need to do a roll of the dice to decide which player character Fan goes after first.

Well, here's my final character... though I'm not really too proud of how it turned out compared to my other two characters. But eh, I wanted to get this thing done with. ^^ If there's anything that needs changing, let me know.

~~~~~

Name: Ezri Zamira
Nickname: None
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Species: Human (Bane of Humanity: Envy)
Hometown: Fennark
Starting Location: Fennark

Appearance: Ezri is of average build with pale, pinkish skin and stands at 5’ 6”. She has straight, jet-black hair that is often tied up into a low ponytail, reaching down to almost to the center of her back, and her bangs flow over the left side of her face. Her eyes are an eerie shade of hazel (though more green in hue) and almond-shaped.

Ezri’s body is often covered up in a large hooded cloak, but beneath it she wears a thin, dark forest green sleeveless tunic with light chainmail underneath. At her forearms are grey arm-warmers and around her neck is a black collar. Around her waist, she wears a series of belts and wears tan-colored baggy pants with thinner belts/straps all along her leg sleeves. Her boots reaches just over her ankles and hidden underneath is a retractable blade that pops out from the front if a trigger is pressed from within the boot. (I’ll probably end up drawing it much later on… I’m terrible at describing clothing.)

Alignment: Evil
Class: Lancer (?)

Weapon: Qiang—the spear is made of wax wood, a strong but flexible wood, allowing for bends to absorb impact preventing breakage. Also, a horse haired tassel, dyed crimson in color, is tied to the base of the spearhead. And a Kyoketsu Shoge—a small double-edged blade, with another curved blade attached at 90 degrees to it, and it is attached to a 12-18 feet chain with a medium-sized ring at the end. (This weapon is not Ezri’s main weapon, unless her spear is knocked from her hands, and it's usually used for other purposes)

Personality: Like the Bane she represents, she is very envious of the other resident teens and children of Fennark. Only knowing nothing but fighting and the art of warfare, she often feels jealous of the carefree life that some of the residents have, and also despises the smiles on their faces from that life—the sort of life she never had. She is usually quick tempered and once she gets mad, she tends to act first and think of the consequences later.


History: Ezri was born into a family of warriors and knights in the capital Fennark and like her older siblings, her family had high hopes that she would follow in their footsteps to become an officer in the army. Unlike normal children growing up in the city, she was often deprived of her childhood, mainly focusing on the art of combat, to her dismay, with the spear or with other pole-arms her parents forced upon her. For years she had been training under many tutors and until she was almost sixteen, upon ready to enter the army, Ezri promptly refused to join. After that she became a disgrace to her family and as punishment they ‘locked’ her up at home and forbade her to leave the city. However for three years, she had been plotting to leave her home and hope to somehow make something of herself in the world.



Any other notable details: None for now… though if something comes up, it’ll probably be added into here later.

Nothing looks out of place, so she's been added to the list, Sil-Sil!

So, I finally got around to posting something with the Vodani sisters. Now, will somebody else take up the reins and revive the thread? Pretty please? *blinks cutely*
