The Count of Monte Carlo

And was Deora still in the room with Kerana and Alec? Or was she waiting out in the hall?


Yes Deora has been in the same room with Kerana the whole time. She went there with Kerana and Liv.
It started here.
-Kerana, Deora and Liv went to visit Alec with cookies in tow
-Trinity popped up and picked up Liv
-Alec shared a premonition
-Kerana tried sending it to Trinity but found it did not go through.
-Now they're trying to figure out how to get the premonition to Trinity on the floating island.

I know we're caught up in the extitement going on, on the island but I think we need to take a moment on how Kerana and Deora are trying to get Alec's prediction to Trinity.

The Count of Monte Carlo, are you planning to post as Deora at all?
Rikki and I have been quoting her at every possibility she may have to react.

I could adjust Kerana's post to say that they are at Alexavier's apartment.

Is this not important now? Can it still be helpful after the big baddies arrive to the island?

Alexavier doesn't have the range to go contact someone halfway across the world.

And how is Kerana supposed to know that? All she knows is that he's a very powerful telepath and was hoping he may have a way or know someone who could do something.

Was more of a reply to if it can still be helpful after the big baddies arrive. That's all razz

I would love to post more as Deora, and I appreciate that you guys have been quoting me to remind me, I really do. The problem I'm having with her is the same problem I have in real life. Something is happening around her that she has no control of and no way to affect, and I don't know what to do.

She's currently third-wheeling with Kerana and Alec, who I don't think she even knows all that well. Like those friends your friend has, but you hardly meet. They're having a conversation that, while I'm sure she's welcome to join, she has no valuable information to add. This is the point in real life where I would start looking at distracting things on my phone, or start listening to music so as not to eavesdrop one a conversation between a friend and boyfriend that might be private. I see Deora as doing something similar, if not practicing with her power with a cup of water, if that's not too distracting to the couple, as it probably would be in that private of a setting. Most extreme case, she might step outside to give the couple more time alone, if only to wait outside the door and do one of those previous activities.

I would have written one of those scenarios into a post, if I could figure out a way to make it worth the effort of typing.

((TL;DR: I still want to play Deora, she'd just twidling her thumbs.))
((And because my paranoia is reminding me that those words might sound harsh without a tone of voice for reference, I'd just like to point out that I'm not angry, and I really do appreciate you all trying to keep my characters in the story.))

I found a page dedicated to Spanish swear words. I feel like I can properly write Deora's true feelings on some things now. Like I can better express her temper, and how she prefers Spanish phrases when she gets mad.

This is something that makes her seem more real to me, the same way I trust people more when they swear. It just seems more honest to me. People who hold their language back seem like they're are hiding something.

Man, I really had to dig deep in my inventory to portray the epic armor.

It looks good. I like that you've been changing your avatars to match the characters.
I'd try the same, but Ako's only got seven shirts. They're all black. blaugh

Link.......really?
PostPosted: Sat Feb 07, 2015 8:35 pm


Yep… I checked with Rikki Tikki Travi and he was okay with it.
Ancient floating island with elves? Skyward sword? How can I resist?

I won't be dropping too many Zelda references. It will be a lot like Trinity he's a son of a distant legend trying to find his place. He will take the death of his sister really hard. Kind of taking a darker spin on it. Not sure if he'll be a main but we'll see.

Trivia: I originally came up with Trinity for a Zelda Fan Fic

Yes but Trinity, despite how often you use her is your actual OC. Maybe the roots are in a zelda fan fic but there is nothing that relates her to that.

This guy has ...Link. No OC, nothing. Just grabbed an existing character, made him talk, changed his background a little and that's it.

I just have an extreme dislike for those kinds of characters. If you got the creativity to make a dark background like that then why the hell doesn't he use that to change the looks of Link to something that he can actually call his OC?

Why does Trinity look the same and is named the same as her ancestor?

It's like what the elves feel when they see her. They know all the stories and legends etc. but they don't know her. This takes this feeling to us, we know the legends, the story etc. but we don't know him.

You okay with that?

Again I doubt he'll become a main, he's just one of the survivors of the island.

Why Trinity looks the same and all is up to you. It's fine to reuse a character as long as it's an OC. You can use that template for many things as long as they fit that RP. To be perfectly honest I found it strange/odd that Trinity came across Freya/Teshoumaru. People who suddenly had nothing to do with the meteors and still had these powers. I mean it was supposed to be that those that came in contact with it had abilities. Part of Theo and Liv's disbelief in all of that reflect my own. This RP takes place in a universe where those meteors grants these powers.

You know where I'm going with this? I just find it important that when a RP that has a set of rules is played according to those rules. Sure I'm okay with finding loopholes and small gaps in those rules. In fact that's what makes things interesting. Like how EJ and this tie together. That IS interesting but does it make sense? Not really. Now it also gives EJ a direction that it needs to take in order to make these events come true which also limits the potential of the RP. There are about 3 active people in both so it's okay. But if the guild was more active and there'd be a completely different set of people in both it would have hindered them.
