4th isn't my favorite it was just what i had at hand when making abilities for my character(since well it gives every class cool stuff and gets the fighter out of i can now hit things better in there skills) i like all of the editions since as Hukuna said they all have there points.

Meanwhile, I'm the scrub that has never played DnD

Lol seriously thou, I think I have the idea of the power levels of each tier (somewhat at least).

Welcome to the club.

Ah, I have brethren here, I see! Come, brothers, let us form a trio then. We can even call ourselves the 3 DnD newbs XD

That makes Four of us, then.

Alright, so I realize that I've been taking awhile to get this big thing started and off the ground so... of course it's been a long time coming.

Firstly, I'd like to thank Pyon and Shadow Mankey for throwing some sample abilities my way to flesh out the Lesser Ability index a tad more than it was, I've not got them all in the thread yet but I'm getting there. Anyway, it was a great help and I highly appreciate it.

Secondly and probably the worst news for some, I've decided for now to cap the players at 8. The reason being I'm not sure how crazy this will be, so I want the player count to be modest enough that it's not overwhelming for me personally. 8 is my typical number of verging on too much to handle however we'll see. As I aim to make this RP a bit less dependent on Host to Player interaction later on it might be okay to have more players to allow more things to be going on etc... anyway, I'd rather air on the side of caution and keep the number tailored to something I'm used to for now as I learn my own systems with my players. I'd rather not overreach and a lot of this project is already bonkers off the wall silly and crazy and it's pretty experimental, as a result I don't want too many agents of Chaos in the mix and Players, are the biggest factor for Chaos because I can't control them. So, I'd rather not.

So, what does this mean for those characters that weren't approved? Well, at current it doesn't mean that I didn't think they were worthwhile etc... it just means that I didn't really think they made the cut quite as well as the others. For those that were waiting awhile I realize... it's probably going to feel a biiiiiiit shitty, but I'm going to have to cut off the sign-ups at some point. ((at least for the time-being.)) I will say though thanks for putting up those characters there were certainly some interesting prospects in there and they were fun to read. If I do open up sign-ups again maybe we'll see XD> But for now, I'm cutting off the Player Count at 8.

I am now in the process of writing the IC which will be partly me setting up the first scenario that will occur. But, more importantly that I will for the introduction of Player Characters be asking you to set up the scene that will introduce your character. Because, frankly you're going to need to know how to do it in this RP and what is a better crash course than having to do it right off the bat? This means if you need any major NPCs ((ones that are controlled by me)) you'll need to ask my permission to use them or include them in your scene somehow. Any other random nobody NPCs you can feel free to create and control for this scene etc ((but it's not like they are your character, they will just be static NPCs for the use of anyone in the castle etc... later on. They won't go in the archive however.)) Now,this was jsut my idea since I wanted players to do this as I set up the main story.

How do you guys feel aobut this plan?

Last one in, I made it just in time #calculated~

I think that sounds like a cool plan, though are we introducing the characters when they just got into the castle or after the gates have been opened?

Because I would love to flesh out how my character ended up trapped in the castle.

I'm 99.99999% certain Hukuna is going to set the scene sometime around when the gates are being reopened/ have already been reopened. The whole deal with how a character found their way to the castle and the gates closing and all that was long before the present... there's a reason he required mention of it somewhere in everyone's backstories.

of course, even with that said, there's nothing to stop you from doing a flashback or something during your PCs intro post.

Hey, Huk, sorry that I couldn't reply earlier, but i'm unsure as to whether or not you Re-Evaluated my Character. I had made the necessary Changes to it, so if you simply forgot to re-evaluate it, I understand. Life can get a bit hectic at times.

Or you could read the post where I explained that I wanted to stick with 8 players. That would work as well.

Okay, then... I'll just have to wait. I will be keeping an eye on this RP, and Making Off-Forum Updates to my Character to keep them at a similar Power Tier to the other PCs.

Uuuuuh I'll decide the power level character can come in at. Keep in mind not all characters will progress at the same rates in this RP. It isn't actually made to work that way. So, they will probably still be fresh character IF new characters are added. Power isn't entirely important. It's there for a reason but it's not entirely the focus of the RP. And as one can easily go out on their own and do some stuff it's not like you have to stick with the higher power leveled folk.

Hmmm…an introduction scene…gotta figure that out...

It'll be good practice for scene writing later, because you guys will be doing it in this RP. Quite a bit of this RP isn't 100% in my control but I'm expecting a loooooooot out of you guys. Framing a scene is one such thing. But a lot of other writing skills are going to be necessary. I'm not going to be going easy on anyone. This RP will demand a pretty high skill level and I've not hidden that I've tried to make it pretty clear. For it to work properly I can't be the only one doing everything you guys are going to have to have some of the workload.

You've been warned. I'm going to be preeeetty hard on folks for this RP, not out of spite but that I demand the best out of your for it. This is going to be some tough stuff so stay on your toes. Scene setting is just one important aspect as well as keeping your sheets updated, and some others stuff that will certainly come into play later. So, best start getting ready.

Shoot Huku, as much as I'd like to do this, I haven't even gotten around to even thinking about finishing my character. That, combined with other projects on and off of Reborn, and the whole affair before and after the new Ymora (a couple of you guys know what I'm talking about if you remember). All in all, I'm gonna shelf this for now. Might or might not come back to it, so good luck with bringing your monsterous story to life.
