Raindrop Valkyrie

^ ding ding ding. Yea, pretty sure that is what they mean by League guys XD. Most here know that the Reborn League doesn't run anymore.

Basically, I will leave it go for Saturday. Sunday the overall plot will be moving ahead whether you wrap up or not. ((I will be replying with any NPCs involved, but not moving the story along until we hit Sunday. and It will be whenever I feel like moving it along on Sunday [November, 23, 2014]. Not going to set a deadline on the tme since I am giving you a full day warning of when to get wrapped up, or at least reasonably wrapped up so we can get moving.))

Bah, somebody has probably told you all about Hukuna Sensei by now. I am the RP guru round these parts and the Head of the RP forums. Feel Free to pm me about RP stuff if you are interested in learning how to play, or how to host an RP. And welcome to Reborn even if it is late good sir, I am sure we will be happy to have you. Hukuna Sensei out!~

Or the worry in her mind. Blue.....not being able to help himself was hanging around in there again. The worry had obscured his presence in her mind from the time he popped in again. She heard his voice in her head again. "You shouldn't worry, Miss Helzebeth. If it is your father that worries you I am sure he is fine. You may ask why I think this. Well, knowing what I do of your father from your memories.... we both know he can handle himself. He taught you afterall, to live in one of the most dangerous places in the world. It is going to take more than one of those Silly Death Angels to do him in, because there is surely nothing in the Forest of Knives that can kill him." As Blue finished talking in her mind, she felt a hand on her shoulder. It wasn't Blue's, but it was Jupiter's. Though she was having a bit of fun messing with Marcus, she saw the pain in her sister's face. She moved to try and give her at least the comfort of somebody being there with her. She didn't say anything as to not draw any attention to Helze. She didn't want to draw all that attention on her when she was feeling this way, it would probably just make Helze shut down, or react in an adverse way. But her firm yet gentle grip gave Helze the same message as Blue had just said. After a bit Blue talked again, clearly flustered. "Oh and uh....sorry for being in your head again.....I kinda just like it here...it is calm and reminds me of myself sometimes. I lived on my own most my life,though, being an avatar I never had family of any kind. Seeker's other avatar, Wave.....he kinda ignored me, he was almost as aloof and cold as Seeker himself. It makes me wonder how Wave is regarded as the Best Scholar Knight to have lived if he was that cold and calculating a person. Unless, that is what Seeker is looking for. Devotion to knowledge above all else. But, what good is knowledge if you don't have someone to share it with? What good is it if you don't use it? At least you saw eye to eye with your father. Mine has never even acknowledged me, other than my creation, and my creation was regarded by him to be a mistake. Yet he makes me tend his library of useless facts and terrible anecdotes. I hope we find your Father Helze. he is a good man, and I know he is out there. I just wish we had some kind of sign, someway to know where he was right now. I don't even care about finding the Titan's Skin, I want to find him, he deserves to see you again, and you deserve to see him too."

"Try not to remind me. Kinda feel like I did when my pa tried to embarrass me in public." she said with a small chuckle. "Though he never went this far if I recall well. I wonder if Odin was a model in a past life, he seems like he knows his stuff." she said, it was obvious she was trying to skirt away from talking about her father, Marcus could easily hear how unsettled she was in her voice with that last comment. Now that Marcus thought about it, they never did met her old man, even when going around town or working with the militia. "Alright, show's over boys. Anymore and I will have to charge you lot. We entertainers don't work for free ya know." Odin said chuckling. He picked some of the flowers out of his beard. Ones with sharp eyes would have seen him put a few in-between the pages of a small journal. He laughed and had a beaming smile. Abraham looked at Nero a bit concerned about the boy. "Even if this isn't your type of thing Nero, keep this in mind. These are the moments we are fighting for. We fight in this world so that others can have those moments and not have the burden of worrying. Joy and happiness aren't a waste of time, if we want to keep sight of our goals. How can a Hero fight to maintain the happiness of others if he can't be happy and enjoy life himself?" The group was getting close to Hawk's Roost now, they could see it in the distance not to far off, it looked beautiful against the auburn red sky of dusk. The Sun sank, and gave off it's dying breathe for the day. It would not be long until the dark of night would wash over the land, and the moon would rule the sky for a while. They would reach the small village by the time the darkness hit, so there wouldn't be the need to camp tonight. A nice soft bed and a warm home cooked meal would be appreciated after the travel. ((we will soon be at the village, this is the final warning to finish up the interactions before we get to town. If you feel you left off in a bad place, there will probably be some time on the roads in-between the other town and the Forest of Knives Entrance.))

I would rather people write something about me XD, like it would feel more natural if somebody wrote something about me, rather than me doing it myself. ((then again I am one of those that doesn't like to toot my own horn, and I don't feel I would be all that accurate talking about myself.)) and yea I can't personally edit it, I only have those powers down in the RP forums.

This is worthy of a double post. I would really like to sahre this with anyone who wants to see it, so I deem it fine to post this in another post form the one above. ((also i can structure it better without making the above post even bigger.)) I am going to plop some of the playlists for the Rollplay Shows here, and probably give a small blurb about them if I deem it is needed. Rollplay: Original THis is where the whole thing started it it was a show I watched whenever I got a chance. It started rolling out around when I joined this forum, and it really reignited my passion for RPGs, and RP in general. It is a 2nd Edition AD and D campaign running with some modification from 3rd and 3.5. ((such as building armour class, rather than the THAC0 system....not explaining THAC0 for you new bloods....because it is a pain in the ass.)). Rollplay: Solum The Reboot of Rollplay Original. It takes place in the same universe on the same storyline....I think 20 years later? I don't really remember XD. Either way it is the continuation of the story that was left unfinished at the end of Rollplay Original due to the rather... unfortunate stuff that happens at the end of the Original campaign. The players are all the same, but the characters are all new!!! Rollplay: R and D ((Research and Development)) THis is the series for discovering new Tabletop RPGs out there. it is sturutured to run some Tabletop for a span of 6 to 8 weeks to get a good feel for how it runs and operates. ((more than you can get out of a One-Shot campaign.)) Some of the RPs covered on the show so far in order they were played. ((while be a playlist for each below.)) Apocalypse World: Somewhat like your typical Fantasy RP, but in a Post apocalyptic shithole of a world. It is a very narrative focused RP on top of this, highly encouraging the players to forget the world around them with the GM. Classes in this game are things that would appear in your typical Apoc World having interesting abilities to go with them. Driver, think Mad Max, and the Gunlugger, a dude who just runs around toting a personal arsenal, these are just a few of the classes in Apoc World. Dungeon World: Made by the same people who created Apoc World, this game is your typical D and D type game. However, this game, like Apoc world is very much Narrative and world building oriented, encouraging the players to get involved in the creation of the world along with the GM. Pendragon: An RP set in the Legendary Arthurian Legend period of England. Players play as Noble Knights, who start off as nobodies following the tale of Uther Pendragon, and later Arthur Pendragon. As this time spans longer than a single life span part of the game is continuing your Knight's Lineage etc. It is a prefect RP for those that enjoy Arthurian Legend or would like a more "accurate" and low fantasy style of world. ((there is no magic in this game at all....other than like Merlin, but you as a player never really see any.)). Pendragon set the way for Fantasy RPGs, and is one of the first ones that was ever written, the original being written before even 1st Edition D and D. Numenara: I really don't know how to explain this one other than it is insanely Sci-fi. Let me explain one of the weapons one of the characters acquired just to give you a taste of the wackiness of this RPG. One Character acquires a Bio-Poison at a point in the story. When applied to another person this poison quickly rushes to the brain of that person where it congeals. it then waits for a command phrase/tone or frequency to activate it ((this particular ones being the NBC jingle....I knew they were evil.)), Then the poison expands, literally exploding the victims skull. It only works once, but yea....pretty flashy if you ask me. If that sounds like it is up your alley, I recommend watching the series since it will be explained pretty well in the opening character creation video. No more as of now. ((I may update this when others are completed.)) Playlists Rollplay: Swansong A campaign that is run in the Stars without Number ruleset. It is basically 2nd Edition AD and D, IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!!! But really though, it is a sci-fi oriented RP, that was structured in a way that would be super familiar to D and D players. Honestly, it is one of my more favourite of the Rollplay Shows because the cast works so well together. They are a bunch of silly dudes who just don't give a damn. ((It doesn't help that they have Mister Sicarian, the character of one of the players....that is pretty much the T-1000. literally everywhere that guy goes he writes a tale of death and bloodshed. In battle he dances the waltz of death as his foes fall around him.)) Playlist I really enjoy all the work these guys do, and it has been entertaining me for some time now. It reignited my passion in RPing, and I hope it shows you guys just why I love RPing to death. I hope you guys watch some, hell you might learn soemthing about RPing when you are watching. ((tough this show isn't to teach, but sometimes it is nice to see RPing in action. Just don't learn from JP.....that guy...such a troll XD.))

and I am still spooky and mysterious.....

Yea, I can understand that, since it looks like I forgot him, but I did it on purpose this time, so that is kinda clear he is definitely trying to not make his presence know.

He is there, he is just being super quiet. He is still under the impression the group isn't going to be friendly to an Illithid. That is why I ahven't mentioned him, he is trying to not be seen right now. ((was wondering when somebody would notice XD.)) and Alrighty, Helze is definitely that then, her age is very much that of a human. ((so if she was Human...she would still be 20.))

Dang it...I am a double Mongrel!!!!

The Elves in my world are actually both of those at the same time. Elves for the first 300 years of their lives tend to be pretty timeless. However, something changes in there ((it is different for every elf when exactly it happens.)), but they lose it bit by bit and start to age. Their typical life span is around 500-600 years ((depending on when the Greying [name of the process where the latent immortality begins to malfunction.] occurs.))

Of course, Of course. Glad you did sign-up, it has been a blast so far. I totally hope to see you around here more man. XD.

I actually didn't realize at first.....you are a freaking fantastic RPer dude, keep it up XD.

Mind if I ask you something Flynn? Have you ever RPed before?

What was her age? Half-Elfs are limited by their Human Blood, they typically live around 180 years in Graterras. ((humans can get get to 120 anymore is pushing it, hell 120 is pretty unheard of, but it has happened once or twice.)). Basically Half-Elfs have similar, but longer Life Spans then Humans.

Yea, it's cool Bfrogs. XD We all mess up now and again. After all we are only human. ((except me...I am a Cthulhuian horror beast)) And Rusty, you can fix the stuff going on in your posts, it just takes time and practice. Hell, I would help you out if I could do it in Real Time, but it would be much too hard over the forums. You really will improve if you keep at it though.

I like 2nd Edition D and D, since in the thick of things, stats barely even matter in that version. So, you can use your stats more of a thing to tell your character's story, to reflect a little bit of who they are. In later editions stats kinda became a laundry list of bonuses. And while there are good points to further Editions, I feel they lose some of the charm and what the game is really about. I feel like they lose sight of this and make every single hero some sort of crazy legend. In 2nd Edition it is much easier to have one who comes from humble beginnings, like a farmer or something of the like. Poor Stats don't gimp a character, hell I have played a character with nothing higher than a 12 in 2nd Edition and he was one of my fondest characters, and one of mine that lived pretty long too. I am just a sap for story and the quality of that story, over the cool shit my character can personally do. Also, Xavier is a middle aged Elf, so he isn't as relatively old as the Dwarves and Chauff and Bjorn. ((Xavier would have to be like 400 years old to be considered an old Elf. 200ish is pretty short time in the eyes of an Elf. THink of it this way, Xavier is around the same age as Odin, but Odin is probably around 50ish in human span of things, where as Xavier would probably be around 25-30 in Human years. Odin is super Middle Aged, where as Xavier is is the peak of his life.))

Helze, the serious one in a group of buffoons. Miss Business in a world surrounded by silly silly buffoons. ((I want to break her out of her shell so bad XD. Just like Nero. Dru kinda has moreso than these 2. Being quiet isn't bad, I just want to see these guys mess with the group and really come to know them as friends, you know?)) Really though, I like that the group has so many dynamics....I am used to have players that all have shades of the same character, like they all act to similar to feel real, it is soooooooooooo boring. I hate minmaxers in D and D so much, cause they kinda ruin the game for me. The cool parts of D and D is making memorable characters and memorable moments happen, not just offing some dude, or being super powerful i kill dudes in 1 hit guy. With this party, I remember everyone. I can know each character's personalities, and I just feel like they are so real. Hell, they overshadow some of my NPCs. You guys are awesome RPers, and I super duper hope we get to some of the cool shit in this Campaign, because we have barely scratched the surface of this world. Like you guys haven't even gotten to met some of the larger than life heros in Graterras, or truly met the Death Angels. I put the most of my time into those guys and I am sure you will enjoy when they show up to give you trouble. I am so glad you guys get to share this journey with me through a world I poured my very soul into. I probably say this way too bloody often to you guys, but it because I truly truly mean it from the very fiber of my being. It makes my heart sing and makes me giddy as all get out for what is to come. This is the reason I am so passionate about RP, because it brings people together like this. I love this stuff, and I will never stop loving it because there is no feeling like it.

Um, Bfrogs Nadia and Berserker are standing right next to Caster and Josh right now......so there is no way Rider would miss seeing them.

Oh, nice Notus. and yea Surge these videos were posted throughout the OOC in Graterras. I felt they were very helpful so I sahred them there. Koibu ((guy that does the videos.)) is a DM I respect a lot, and while a lot of this stuff is geared towards D and D, it is still helpful. He posted a new one every week, though I forget the day. Koibu DMs a well Known D and D show on Youtube and Twitch, Known as Roleplay: Solum. It was all put together long ago by a big twitch Streamer and youtuber ItmeJP. It is kinda the show that reignited my passion for RPGs, and just RP in general and I definitely recommend at least giving it a try. ((going to say now the backlog for Roleplay if you start with Roleplay: Original [or the original series.] is over 400 hours as this campaign has been running at least a year now. Roleplay: Solum is the reboot of the original set in the same universe many years later. [basically a Total Party Wipe happened in the original Roleplay series, so the campaign couldn't be salvaged and a new one had to be started.])) It should be noted this point is very important, cause in a way if it wasn't for this show, I might not be hanging around these forums like I am today. Should mention Koibu is a big advocate of 2nd Edition D and D is the best edition, and I agree with him so I maaaaay be a little biased.
