This thread is for Out Of Character [OOC] discussion about the game and for posting character and world-building information.

I will probably eventually put an organized glossary of Characters and other things in this post.

Okay I have updated Gorika's information sheet to explain the life magic thing a lot better

EDIT: Okay wow I kept thinking of more ways to edit it to explain the life magic part better but now I am done with editing it at least for now and probably for a while

EDIT #2: Also sorry that it ended up as long as it did, when I actually try to explain things it often gets really long-winded

I would not be surprised if there was something of an interesting contrast between Gorika and Ri'ka, since Ri'ka definitely seems like a lot more of a fighter

Gorika is afraid to kill others, and while she can perform quite well in a fight as long as she doesn't think she will die or need to kill, she has never particularly tried to learn how to harm others and basically only fights to save herself and/or others

One of the reasons that Gorika can perform quite well in a fight is that her vastly decreased reaction time is and has always been the thing that she relied on to help her survive the most, and so she has built up good instincts for avoiding damage and whatnot with far less than a moment's notice, and in general trained herself to pay attention and move well

Ri'ka's information sheet didn't seem to imply that she could do something like that but oh well, and anyway that was a pretty cool post Rubik

I have been thinking about a very experimental sort of character that probably will not fit in this RP but at least might fit in some other RPs I am a part of elsewhere

It is not technically a character but is an entire world which was sealed away because either something went horribly wrong with it or one of the gods that made it did something scary, and since it is sealed it can't do nearly as much as it otherwise could, and I have no plans to have the seal ever be removed in an RP but it might be cool if that happened and some really crazy stuff could start happening if it did

it has no actual personality and only appears to have one and also often takes a person-like form

because it is a world it is heavily influenced by those around it in various ways, since a world in this context is defined as something which connects thinking beings together and allows them to share experiences

it probably mimics elements of the personalities of those around it in many cases

I figure it can understand things and, on some level, process information and intend/try to do things, but that might be about all it can do on it's own

one idea that I had for it that I may or may not do is that the wishes of others often take form in it and as a result it ends up granting lots of minor wishes but it probably doesn't have the power to grant anything too major because of the seal

again I do not expect it to fit into this RP or otherwise be used in this RP, it is just a cool experiment

fundamentally I guess it's power would be to connect to thinking beings, and to be influenced by thinking beings

when this power is used on multiple thinking beings at once, it can connect them together, of course

this power could be taxing on other roleplayers if it is always or usually in use in ways that lead to things like telepathy or enhanced empathy between two people, but it does not have to be doing things like that often

this power doesn't have to only be used on beings that are in it's presence either

it might even be able to connect people together by letting them share the same body, though even if that's not necessarily temporary it would go away as soon as the power is no longer being used on the people in question

also if anyone is wondering, I got the main inspiration for this being from Alpha from Megaman Battle Network 3

in that game, Alpha is the prototype internet which went horribly wrong, it gained some level of intelligence of it's own and started creeping into all internet-connected devices and eating all the data and for some reason they couldn't delete it but they were able to lock it away

in that world there are programs other than Alpha that are actual thinking beings and a lot of them even have emotions and stuff (though Alpha doesn't) so that was just one reason for why it was a big deal for Alpha to eat all the data

the idea for this character is that just as networks connect computers together, a world connects thinking beings together

I should develop the reason this character was sealed better

hm, let's see

if I made it be like Alpha then if it is unsealed it will start eating forms and probably personalities and lots of other stuff, but I don't think that I will do that

maybe someone that was connected to it intentionally let it absorb something strange in an effort to rebel against the gods, and this made it unpredictable even to the gods. it started redefining itself and bringing about a great many possibilities that the gods had been preventing from happening because these possibilities interfered with their plans and created many problematic beings.

Maybe the gods are still trying to clean up the mess even now

I like characters that rebel against the gods so this also gives me a reason to make such a character later

They might have gotten sealed but maybe they could have escaped somehow

EDIT: Also the gods mentioned in this post are probably not the 7 gods of Reaet. These gods could be ones that would ordinarily have no influence whatsoever on the world of this RP but maybe this sealed world happened to connect to someone who was connected to Reaet?

Of course, it probably doesn't matter anyway since this character probably has nothing to do with this RP, so maybe I should not have posted it here

Hmmmmmmmmmm I'm not sure

I think there are 3 player characters right now unless I'm forgetting one or more hmmmm I wonder if I forgot some

I'm not sure if any of those 3 are super chill or which one would be the chillest but they all seem kinda cool regardless

EDIT: Ooh I did forget at least one. Hmmmm but I still don't have an answer

I wouldn't be opposed, but it's been a pretty long time.
