I think poeple are afraid to start the first thread for HD..... I am, as well. sweatdrop


I'm still making up some plots and kind of wondering if I should just wait and join someone's thread.
Yeah, I'm considering joining a thread as opposed to starting one. sweatdrop

I'll push him into making the first move. whee But I'am wondering what happened to Kurikins characters from the profile section of HD?

I'm very sorry for my sudden absence without warning. My grandfather died Monday night, and so we had to leave town for the week. This is the first time I've had any access to a computer, but I'll be back home tonight or tomorrow sometime. Again, I'm really sorry about leaving without warning, but it was so sudden that there wasn't really anything I could do.

Hrmm... I must have missed that.

Anyways, I think I got a general idea of what to rp, but how to make a thread for HD. TSW seem to have each thread where its a different area. HD doesn't really have other areas... so I'm guessing each HD thread would be a different plotline?

Oh, sorry for bugging/PMing you, then. Very sorry to hear about your grandfather. Welcome back tonight or tomorrow.

Welcome back Sryne. Sorry to hear about your grandfather.

@Artemis - Originally I was going to make everyone in HD wait until all ten slots were filled, but I've decided to make an exception so that everyone can get going, I know a lot of you were excited to start. Also, It's an RPG, people, not some sort of test. Don't be afraid to start new threads. They don't bite, really. There's absolutely nothing you can mess up here, and if even you do mess something up--I don't care. =) No pressure! Really.

Clarifying a bit more:

Yes, Halcyon's Demise and The Second World are two completely and utterly different RPGs who are not related to each other in any way, shape, or form. Just because they share a guild does not mean they aren't seperate entities unto themselves.

For the time being, I will not be roleplaying in HD, that is why my character profiles are no longer on the member's list. I may change my mind at a later date, but for now just continue without me. I may also just sort of show up now and then to prod things along without actually being a "stapbe" character. But none of you should be worrying about that. Just roleplay as you wish and have fun while you're at it. smile

As for starting new TSW threads...again, I encourage you all to go for it. I'm going to start one of my own in Ath (I can't right now as I'm actually about to leave the house) so just keep that in mind if you'd like to RP with me. Feel free to start new threads all over Secotha--White Meadow, Ulumaki, Sumaru...those are all lands that haven't been explored much yet. Plus, remember that Sumaru Island has pirates. XD

One last thing: Forget about the old threads. I'm going to close them right now, actually. I won't delete them or anything, but I don't want anyone posting in them any longer. It's time for a fresh start.

Hm... Since no one has started an HD thread yet, I may start in to it.

About locations: But doesn't a city have locations anyhow, no matter what?

Though it'd be cool to just have one HD thread... then everyone would be bale to keep up easily with what everyone else was doing and not be waiting on posters. domokun

Dunno, those are just my thoughts. ninja

EDIT: And the organizations would be more... organized. sweatdrop

One thread would be cool, and it does make sense, especially if there's like a big explosion. Everyone should know it would have happpened.

I think the first post should be saved to point out general info. Like who is in what group, and perhaps list out big events that may have happened and what page it happened. Keep it more organized that way.

You know what we should do, have HD threads in chapters/sessions to keep it going? If it gets to slow or stop, then I guess the others who gone inactive can say another chapter can roll on and then the most active can start another chapter. He/she can start of from where it slowed down, or even move the time forward. Or for the heck of it, do a flashback.

Not sure how long a chapter would be and what should be the specifications on when a chapter will end, just a suggestion.

Ooo maybe have it like Kill Bill, each chapter will be dedicated to the character advancement of a certain character. Buahaha.

Then it'll truly be a collaborated novel. -gasp-

I like the chapter idea for HD. Previously, Bloom had a nifty little relationships listing on the front page of the roleplaying thread, that outlined how each character was interacting with each other and why. Thusly:

Deirdre and Mizumi and Korin are members of Isis, as well as good friends.

Samuel and Hiram are disgruntled partners (disgruntled because they're partners) in AGSA. They work for Adrienne, who is in cahoots with Crosse, the leader of Chrest. Tessera, another AGSA operative, works by herself, on the grounds that she'd probably eventually kill any partner she eventually gained.

So, Crosse is the leader of Chrest, and the boss of these two guys: Ailsean and Laurence.

Duncan and Izanami are members of FM, of which Thessally is a predominant leader. Duncan's sister is actually Deirdre, not that anybody can be bothered to remember that.

Luca and Parafli are both male, anti-social, loner Celestials who work for nobody but themselves. Accordingly, they're both acquainted and can't stand each other.

Sal is another loner Celestial...and she just might have killed Hiram's son.

Hiram, however, is not the only AGSA agent with a vendetta. A Celestial killed Tessera's entire family, and her efforts for revenge against all Celestials have brought her on a manhunt against Kimi, a wide-eyed little girl.

Well, at least we know that Luca killed Sazuko, and that's just 'cause he's clumsy.


I always thought it was a really cool feature, even if it gave away just a bit of the plot, because as the last person to join the RP it helped me to keep up with current events and to better understand what had happened before I got there.

The only problem I can think of with the chapters idea is what are you going to do when a chapter ends? Because the whole point of a chapter would be to advance the plot and to help keep track of what's already happened. But roleplaying is so random, there's no way you could accurately predict what each chapter would be like. Unless you want to do a countdown sort of thing, where I start and keep up with a countdown to when the Ethereal awakens. Since that event is prophesized that would fit in with the plot.

As for locations in HD...that's probably never going to be a real priority of mine. When Bloom owned the RPG originally everybody just made up their own locations in "the slums" or "east district" or "Chrest HQ", and that sufficed. I actually thought it was kind of neat that it was so loose and undefined, it allowed for more creativity.

Chapters is just a way to organize it, you can call it Season, Episode, Session, etc. It's just a way to organize the story. There really is no definite final chapter. So we can write like a summary of a chapter in the first page each time there's like a huge change in HD.

I'm thinking of using a "chapter" system since activity does wax and wane. If people go inactive, and people still RPing can't move, they just tell/ask the inactive ones what they would allow to happen to their character, then the active people can write it all up, so they can continue with their characters. Then thus, they start a new chapter of sorts. smile

With a summarized chapters, new people who want to join will have a easier way of seeing what has happened.

Yeah the relationships list is nice.

Hola.

Yes. I've been inactive here...I'm very sorry. I'm not going to accuse a lack of creativity or anything, because obviously, that would never happen to my genius mind. xd Oh, and yeah...Kurikins would be mad at me. cry For good reason, of course - I find that equally frustrating in my own Rps. And that's why I've been inactive; once again, I've had my attentions divided when it comes to Rping time, and my own Rps on another site have been very pre-occupying.

I know I'm not a part of this, but chapters is a good idea - if it can be done right. My very first Rp was divided into chapters, and that, suffice to say, lasted at least six to seven years (not that I was there the whole time or anything).

As for TSW, I'm not quite sure what I should do. I know I'm not very active here, and that's my own fault, no holds barred.

In any case, I might yet join this (HD). I haven't completely decided yet, so it entirely depends if I'm decisive enough before character slots run out. It might even be better for me to wait - maybe I can bother someone with a PM and suggest a character collaboration for my new guy.

OMG character-dedicated chapters idea. *dies from ectasy* Be my e-groom.

Was that an example? Because I'm air-headed like that, I don't know. I think the character linking thing is a definite good idea, and I'm kind of neutral about the chapters. Whatever you guys think is fine with me.
