Personification Life OOC Thread X [sign-up & planning]

Marcus' name would be on the mailboxes. He's in Naomi's old apartment, 2C.

Alrighty.

[Swith Witherward]

*laughs* I've just realized it puts Marcus directly across the hall from Giovenith. She probably waved goodnight to him before going into her own apartment.

Goodnight PL!

[Cerillium]

Swith, you gave up editing my shitty flashback? Collab reads alright without it. Maybe it'll crop up later.

Still has typos though.

Sooo.... For the past few days, during free time at work (and not during lunch break or my 15 minute breaks) I have been busy reading up on The Lord of the Rings canon and everything to it. To the point that if I were to create a character, I could have the age they came from, the place, their back story, occupation, and reason on how they got here..... Sadly no real defined motive for them. Plus I have enough characters to run to the point it is ridiculous.

Park the characters you don't intend to use.

LOTR - please be very familiar with it if you intend to run things canon (rather than spoof), especially elves; diehard fans will cringe as badly as they do when encountering the bastardized "40K" (SPOOF) we wank here in PL.

The Starlight runs the Tolkien RP Group if you're interested in participating in Middle Earth RPs down the line. Their thread is quiet but I believe they're all still in touch with each other. It's worth visiting some time. Good people.

Other resources:

• Lord of the Rings Wiki
• Tolkien Gateway
• LOTR Project (The Interactive map is fantastic.)

Video History of Middle Earth: (Part 5 and 6 in this format are no longer offered although there are links to a version that omits the subtitle explanation)

• History of Middle Earth part 1: the creation of Arda up to Dagor-nuin-Giliath
• History of Middle Earth part 2: the wakening of Men up to Nírnaeth Arnoediad
• History of Middle Earth part 3: the capturing of Hurin up to the third kinslaying
• History of Middle Earth part 4: the War of Wrath up to defeat of Morgoth
• History of Middle-earth 5: Lords of the fallen - no subtitles
• History of Middle-earth 6: The Witch-King of Angmar - no subtitles
• History of Middle Earth part 7: attack on Minas Ithil up to downfall of Sauron
• History of Middle Earth part 8: the story of Lady Galadriel
• History of Middle Earth part 9: the story of Elrond
• History of Middle Earth part 10: the story of the Dwarves

I can't praise these videos enough. Masterfully put together, 1-4 are fairly accurate although some interpretations are loose after that.

Do we get angry letters from fans about our bastardizations?

We have, actually! Mostly it's the 40K fans that don't understand that our version is a "beer and pizza" parody greatly watered down in order to keep PL light.

Kek.

What about Star Trek and other series?

So far no one's ever been like "You can't have a female S.T.A.L.K.E.R. because there were no women in the Zone!" to me.

It's not even conceivable for me to be able to bastardize MLP canon any more than my fellow bronies have already bastardized it time and time again (some in ways more fabulous than others), so I believe I'm just fine should I feel the need to tweek things in the future.

I just butcher everything. No canon is safe from my horrendous reworkings and cheap bootleg remakes.

I don't butcher, but I do expand EXTENSIVELY. Small preview of current project.

... You know, I look at other people's factbook entries and I'm astonished people can put that much effort into them.

Edna Mode is such a great character!

Due to unforeseen technical problems (I dropped my phone) I will be posting less frequently for an indefinite period of time.

Silent Hill is my priority. I told you I'd make it work, Mon, and I meant it. (Also, the post frequency is once or twice a day...)

I will be able to post, in the best-case scenario, a few times a day, most within an hour of this post's time. Rmwtyliin and Nick will attend the meeting; Rmwtyliin will not be available for interaction, at least not before Saturday,, but both might ask questions at the meeting. As for Nick...TNEL, I hate to do this to you, but I'm going to have to park him because I don't want Elka frozen. He'll fall asleep on his bed. I'd ask if that's okay, but my internet access has to stop in less than 10 minutes and I'll barely have time to type the post!

[The High Tatras]

Sorry I haven't gotten a post in the IC thread today. I am having trouble coming up with what to say and do next.

[Monfrox]

I had a thought. So Lidev, Kei, NVE, Charumati, Deuce, and Dora are sitting at a table playing poker while Giov plays the piano in the corner.

Sign the rental app and a golden key appears on the counter. Move him to the apartment? Give us an idea of his initial thoughts regarding his new home as he inspects it?

I should have the Residents' Meeting post up tomorrow night. He already knows about the meeting (the cultist at the front desk mentioned it).

There's a segment of Elfen High's OP that said "To be filled in later", effectively.

It said that for two fucking years before I just removed those sections entirely.

Problem solved.
