Well . . . The way I see it, a digital creation has to have hardware for its software, so they'd have a core, a small orb or a cube or something that's their brain. Their physical interaction is a little bit limited due to their form being a form of hard light. I'm also thinking they'd be able to alter their shape within certain limitations, like a program.

Of course they'd be limited. But they'd also probably have some ability to interface with machines. So they're not totally useless.

I'm not too sure about the hologram, but elemental and robots sound interesting. I always like playing androids.

I'll need time to consider. Hologram people, and androids would make the (P)MT district kind of retro futuristic... or not. 2000s living, convenience of the 2060s! Elementals... I'd have to understand what kind of elemental (Dryad/Nymph like or raw, and primordial). With steampunk metelmen we'd end up with individuals much like the Tin-Man from wizard of Oz. Which isn't a bad thing.

I see what you mean about the retro-future, but I was imagining it done more like Halo or Destiny and less like old movies.

My initial elemental concept was raw element with a human shape, but I can see how that would be bothersome. I don't really mind either way though.

And Tin Man sounds nice. I was imagining something like these though, because I love watching the gears turn.

Here is what I've got so far;

• Automata - Clockwork construct made to appear humanoid.
  
  • Energy Source - An Automata can be powered by one of the following sources; Steam Capacitor, Chemical Energy Cell, or Arcane Battery. Going down the list each is longer lasting then the other, however their rarity increases with Arcane Batteries being the most expensive to find, but able to last for years. The Steam Capacitor, while able to last for a few days, is able to be recharged by steam infusion.
  • Ownership Status - Is the Automata owned by anyone, or independent.
  • Purpose Built - An Automata was built for a specific role, and will be judged based on the role it was built to fulfill. Please state this role.
  • Rebuildable - so long as the primary memory is spared, the Autmata can be rebuilt if other wise destroyed. Lost limbs are of little concern to a machine, so long as it has access to a mechanic.
• Dragonic (anthromorphic dragon race)
  
  • Armored Hide - Durable scales, with out this trait your character is presumed to have the same durability, as a human.
  • Breath -
  • Flying Wings - Wings are strong enough to fly up to a 240 yards distance.
  • Gliding Wings - Wings allow you to glide.
  • Vulnerable Belly (Requires Armored Hide) - leaves the belly scaless... for some reason..
• Elemental
  
  • Element Form: Allows the Elemental to become their element. Example: an elemental with the element of fire turns into a flaming apparition, one of water turns into an aqueous person, etc.
  • Trusting the Elements: Creatures associated with the elemental's element will normally be friendly and cooperative (e.g. birds for air elementals, fish for water elementals)
• Elf
  
  • Lightfooted: Elves are acrobatic and athletic, easily performing feats that would put a human in the hospital
  • Marksman: From slings, to bows, to rifles, elves seem to have an uncanny ability to shoot accurately, with minimal training.
  • Natural Order: Elves have a strange connection to nature. Plants react strangely to an elf's presence, and animals are often kind.
• Gnome
  
  • Cheerful & Dependable: Even in the worst situations, Gnomes can always find something to be happy in. Gnomes are courageous in defense of their homes and loved ones, and loyal to their friends.
  • Countryside Walks: Halflings have high stamina, and can walk for a longer time than humans or many other races. They easily handle rough terrain.
  • Green Thumb: Halflings are excellent farmers, and seem to be able to grow anything.

  • Wi-Fi connection - You can interface with computer systems in her general area with out having to be connected via a land line.
• Human
  
  • Driven - Human has a plan. No matter how low this human gets they will never give up. This trait forces the player to continue towards their stated ambition, no matter what fate will befall the character in it's pursuit.
• Leonin - Lion, and Tiger people.
  
  • Night Vision: Leonin have excellent eyesight at night, six times as powerful as humans.
  • Protractible Claws: Leonin have the ability to protract their claws from a retracted, at-rest position.
  • Leonin are capable of a roar, which can often frighten opponents-
  • Whiskers: Highly sensitive hairs on the Leonin's face provide it with sensory information about the slightest air movement around it.
• Naga - Human (or near human) from the waist up, and serpent from the waist down.
  
  • Cold Blooded - Taking after a reptile, the Naga needs to use the enviroment to stay warm, and thus, active. Cold causes the Naga to become motionless, and to even fall into hibernation. However, Cold Blooded Naga are able to sense, though an organ in the muzzle, heat. Thus making their lives easier. The range of this sense is five meters. It doesn't allow one to see infared, but it does allow you to get an idea of where a warm body, or spring is.

Venomous Naga usually wear fang caps designed to prevent them from accidentally poisoning someone.

  • Bloodlust -
  • Blood Sucker -

  • Hypnotic Gaze -
  • Mist Form -
  • Not the Light! -
  • Supernatural Speed -

  • Mist Form - The Vulpine takes on a misty form that can neither harm, nor be harmed. One can not shift in rabid succession lest ye become a puddle*. (Requires five tails)

  • Bezerker - Anger is difficult for you to contain. When you do release it, your's is the furry of nature. You'll usually attack the focal of your frustrations. One's eyes might ignite with a feral flame, taking on a yellow hue when this occurs.
  • Full Wolf Transformation - Can become a wolf breed of your choosing, the most common are Grey Wolves, and Dire Wolves. (Not available if one has Base Form - Wolf)
  • Hungry like the Wolf - Massive appetite with cravings for red meat. You burn off what you eat pretty quickly though, especially during a transformation, which just leaves you more hungry. Assuming you can shift.
  • Hybrid Wolf Form - The hybrid appearance is up to the player, and typically takes an anthropomorphic form. (Not available with Base Form - Hybrid)
  • Hyper Sensitive Hearing - Your ears can pick up sounds the Human ear can not, powerlines? Yeah, you hear that way better. You don't even have to be near a transformer to hear it.
  • Lone Wolf - A Loner, you become agitated in crowds, especially among those you are unfamiliar with. Your more likely to lash out while attending social events against your will. Besides, you prefer to carry out your own plans with out having to rely on someone else. (Conflicts with Pack Instinct)
  • Lunacy - Lose of civilized self, and giving into of feral instincts under the light of the full moon. Will insight transformation of your choice.
  • The Nose Knows - You remember smells, almost like a personal index. Forget phone numbers, just sniff around for a friend.
  • Pack Instinct - When it comes to clicks, family, and friends you know them well. You have an unspoken bond allowing you to read those you are close to, to have a sense of what they might do before they do it, as well as what you are expected to do. Great while hunting, and also for 'wingman' situations.

Do remember that players choose their attributes. For example, one can have a Naga with the Attributes Rattler, and Venom or forget those, and go with cold blooded constrictor. I don't think CP is even required. You play what you like.

Hab, the OP is a bit done, but right now I've realized that I am not really ready to manage an RP yet. I think I'll lurk for a bit more before actually getting it up. So to clarify, it's being shelved due to my own incompetance, and I'm going to continue to try to learn through this.

Also, I can help with Slavic mythology.

Hmm...
Perhaps limit the number of attributes one can have and have certain attributes be incompatible with others.

[Harbertia]

Hmm...

That sounds good. We may have to specify a limit on each type individually based on how many attributes are available to the race, perhaps having that a player can only have 1/3 of the available attributes for that race (nine attributes listed, but only able to take on three). We'll have to do some pre-game tinkering before making a decision.

I'd like it if one took liberties upon the list, as it's still in it's planning stage. Adding, modifying, or removing attributes as they so desire till we have a consensus. It's always nice to see how others would portray the race, as well as what they come up with. Often times it uncovers avenues not previously thought up.

We haven't. Many months ago, my RP died. People wanted to keep talking in the OOC. I saw The Titans a while ago, but was intimidated into not joining. So I made my own group, with all my buddies from the RP. And then it exploded.

Speaking of which, I'm thinking we can merge the werewolves with anthro wolves to create the wolfkin race. Some are shape shifters, some are not.

Welcome

[Harbertia]

So, Glajinard, we're working on a new RP if you'd like to join us.

Alright, so I finally discussed an afore mentioned idea with a colleague, and this is what we're thinking;

An RP set in a town distributed, and segregated not by race, but culture; and by culture, we mean something more then Brits, Germans, or Australians (none of those exist here). These cultures are built around a way of a life connected to a period in time; the upper left is a culture build around the 2000s, the upper right is a jazzy 1920s culture with a strong mafia following, to the lower right is a culture inspired by Mideval fantasy, and to the lower left is a Victorian society that houses a steampunk sub-culture popular with the younger generation (but having it's share of elders). These districts are joined at the Nexus, a great shopping, and government center where people from all four districts are allowed to mingle.

It's multi-species;

(Image)(Image)(Image)(Image)(Image)(Image)

The RP is planed to be a kind of free form RP with a focus on interaction in the Nexus, and between players who share a culture.

The wolfkin sounds nice.

What do you want us working on? Attributes? More races? Some other third thing?

[Glajinard]

-snip-

It sounds very interesting, I'm going to look through the races/species and see if I can come up with suggestions. I think I already have one for humans. Maybe instead of "driven" you could say "optimistic?" To me it just seems unrealistic to make humans pursue a goal relentlessly.

"Optimistic- No matter how low this human gets they will never give up. This trait allows the player to continue towards their stated ambition despite setbacks, and can make them inspirational to others."

The attribute system is a kind of pick an choose, allowing for character customization. One playing a human wouldn't have to be driven. We are however in need of some more attribute options for the players in the Human area.

Oh! I understand now. I'm not sure what you're thinking in the way of magic, but if you wanted that could be an area for human attributes. Some attributes related to martial ability (swordsmanship, archery, marksmanship) and stealthy skills (lock-picking, sneaking, pickpocketing), could also be considered.

We don't have an advanced skill system, though we do have some magics;

Perhaps Every culture could have access to the bending of the four elements (as such is likely very noncomplex magic). Fantasy could have access to more powerful and a wider range of magic (Invocation, Enchantment and such), the 1920's could have darker and more subtle magic (As you said, Voodoo or dark pacts of some kind). The Steampunk could have technomagic. And the Modern people could be the most magic stagnant, as technology got more complex magic got less so.

That sounds right. We should describe what kind of magic is native to each district... which is something we've just done. Though I can't help but remember that show, Sabrina the Teenage Witch; which has me thinking that some minor community might still have magics in the modern district.... perhaps someone whose wife came from the Fantasy District, and immigrated though the proper channels into the Modern District, adopting the life style, but not quite getting use to all the appliances, and thus being far more comfortable using her native magics for house hold chores. Eventually deciding that due to how the neighbors, among other concerns, to keep her magic to her self, and bestow knowledge of it to her children as a way to keep a little bit of her heritage alive in the next generation.

Still, it'd be uncommon so let's focus on what is common;

• Modern - Basic elements, yet stagnant, no formal education in magical arts; and most modern amenities make every day use of magic pointless.
• 1920s - Dark and Subtile, inspired by Voodoo, and dark pacts. Taking on a eerie sinister feel.
• Victorian - Enchantment meets technology, allowing for arcane batteries which come in handy with smaller devices like artificial limbs.
• Mid-Fan - Widest range of magics.

Currently Magic is being treated as a skill. Some races however have been granted the option to be endowed with metaphysical powers. A Gnome player can decide to allow their gnome the ability to become invisible, and a Vampire player can select to have the option of a mist form. With Humans Drive/Ambition, Resilience, and Architecture are traits that are very strong. We have a knack for building structures, and I suppose a level of resourcefulness. Finding ways to use objects around us to complete an aim.
