PL: The EPIC OOC - closed thread

[Mincaldenteans]

Taking a break from writing..... to write? Peh.

The Guild members nestle together now.
Tomorrow, the fruits of their labors to reap.
Your PC should be in their bed, my dear.
Please put your PC the fuck to sleep.

The Priests are working their magic, child.
Summoning machine gods from the deep.
They'll bless one very last trinket if you swear
Your PC will go the fuck to sleep.

The Luxans who slink through halls are at rest
And the cultists who spy, poison, and creep.
I know you don't have extra bullets. That’s bullshit. Stop lying.
Lie the fuck down, damn PC, and sleep.

The wind whispers soft through the ash, hon.
The dragon-litch makes not a peep.
It’s been five RL days already.
Jesus Christ, what the fuck? Put your character the fuck to sleep.

All the other PCs are in dreamland.
The polite players have made their last peep.
Hell no, your PC can’t go to the lobby.
You know where the PC can go? The fuck to sleep.

The CoOPs fly forth from their dens.
Over PL threads, they linger and they weep.
A hot crimson rage fills my heart, love.
For real, shut your PC the fuck up and have them sleep.

The NPCs and others are snoring,
Wrapped in a big snuggly heap.
How is it you can write all this other great shit
But you can’t make your PC lie the fuck down and sleep?

The quest information is on the first page now
All that valuable information to reap.
No more questions. This interview’s over.
I’ve got two words for your characters: fucking sleep.

The civet reclines in the simmering jungle.
The fennec has silenced her cheep.
Fuck your applications, I’m not giving you shit.
Stretch your fingers. Cut the crap. Write them to sleep.

The plot line awaits in the meadows
And high on the mountains so steep.
My life is a failure, I’m a shitty-ass GM.
Stop fucking with me, please, and sleep.

All the other P2TM RP are advancing
As I sit here and openly weep.
Sure, fine, whatever, I’ll let you finish your scene.
Who the fuck cares? You character's not gonna sleep.

This IC is all I can remember.
The posts crappy and cheap.
You win. Your character runs down the hall.
As I nod the fuck off, and sleep.

Bleary and dazed I awaken
To find you say you're finished -- I keep
My fingers crossed tight as I open the IC,
And pray that you’ve put your PC to fucking asleep.

We’re finally ready to advance the plot.
I'm ready! I write, hit submit - sweet!
Oh shit. Goddamn it. You’ve gotta be kidding. You posted?!
Come on, have them go the fuck back to sleep.

I had the Mof's voice in my head while reading this

[The BranRiech]

I remember the Anti-Verse thing. *Nods*

Bran looked like this.

I suppose Drova would actually be a good prince in the anti-verse, and Yuna would be the sulking, psychotic one.

[Giovenith]

Gio was a tyrant who took over her pantheon and had a bad habit of torturing the followers.

She was also my only played character at the time. Bringing it up to date, Pippa-Michelle would be... exactly the same. Golems are innately blank slates that don't have enough individual character to be considered "good" or "evil." Background-wise, she was created by Anti-Gio for company but quickly forgotten, and mostly just roams the home doing whatever she wants, much like in the regular-verse. Notably though, she does seem to possess empathy, and becomes scared whenever her creators does something violent or evil (which is a lot).

Anti-verse Willow lives what is known as "the spite-verse," which is a form of Equestria ruled over by an evil Princess Twilight and all the citizens are their greyed-out, discorded selves. Discorded Willow is an insensitive and derogatory asshole who targets other people's insecurities and sucks up to those stronger than him to disguise the fact that he's largely scared of and intimidated by the rest of the world, with a nasty habit of throwing others under the bus. Instead of abstract, a form of art that encourages freethinking and expression, he's a propaganda poster artist in service to the Princess.

[New Aksarben]

I've never actually been able to figure out what discorded sterling might be like.

A slob, entirely disorganized and deliberately messing with others just to disorganize their things to the point it'd make even those without OCD weep? probably because he feels like he's never organized enough, and out of spite why should anyone else have nice things?

Yeah something like that.

Maghrl would probably instead of robots like collecting parts from people and creatures, and use the force and sith alchemy shit to put together monstrous creatures like the tarentatek and zombies and shit, basically be like a Sith necromancer more or less. Though still entirely fuzzy and cute, because that's his species. Maybe a bit bloodstained though.

[Chedastan]

Anti-Romy will probably be a dishonored and disgraced ex-officer of the Hindenburg Republic, that was reduced to a lowly grunt after countless failures on the field against constant invasions that beset his crumpling home. After centuries of fighting hopeless wars, Anti-Romulus inevitably goes traitor, and abandons his post during the final defense. Bringing with him his only two companions left to his remaining life of paranoia and insanity: His massive prismatic energy cannon, and the undying faith of his dark god, Malcolm...

[Germanic Templars]

Soo... I am assuming the one quest has started...

[Cerillium]

SITREP incoming.

OP/CoOP STUFF:

• Please read IC posts prior to posting. It saves confusion over time of day, weather, etc.
• Fuel/Power sources are still limited.
• There have been requests to visit the Church of Demens. We'll RP it out rather than funnel info to players via IRC/TG.
• Residents are encouraged to visit the village to restock basics. Most have runes (coins) to purchase things.
• Residents need to leave their name at the front desk if they want to help the healers, help the agri people.
• The hospital is now present. Characters can visit it. (Players can set up little zones. Example: Min might want to send Anais over to craft her spell space.)
• Keep in mind that we have two major stories and a minor story occurring. Carnival Time is reflective of the Building. Serendipity (Vargquest) time goes at its own pace. Time is frozen outside of the Nifid labs so Swith and Agy can do their closed story.
• We've done a MAJOR time skip. Players on the Vargquest (aka Serendipity) can add to their first post for the quest any activities done the night prior to leaving. Everyone else -- we've skipped to morning. Participate in Carnival as you want, or don't if you have something better in mind. Keep in mind that I'll be too busy to run anything for the village. Agy is too busy to post for Ascalon.
• Serendipity players: if you don't post, and give no reason why, you forfeit your character. Do NOT stall us by not posting.
• Swith will update the supply list in the next day or two.
• Current Quest participants:
  
  Romy - leader
  Giovenith - adviser (dragons); healer. This character has final say on whether or not Varg is slain
  Primordial - adviser (undead dreagons)
  Alexia - adviser (undead); magic combat
  Sandy - magic combat
  Opa and Amara - fire team (Amara is forming Marcus' armor)
  Maghrl - melee; barterer
  Lucius - melee; backup healer
  Drova - squire; melee
  Marcus - squire; comms
  Vroo - a steed
• Don't know what Carnal Carnival is? Please ask in the OOC. People will give details.

[New Aksarben]

I'll post for Maghrl sometime tomorrow most likely. Not feeling up to it tonight, stressful few days.

also unsure if Sterling will participate or not in the carnival. Though I'll have him put his name down for either the healer's group or agri group. I'm unsure which at the moment.

[Mincaldenteans]

I'll have a post up later tonight or tomorrow depending how long I'm out, handling a minor emergency.

As TG'ed to Cer, I'll also have an updated list for Alexia one last time that'll be mentioned in my post and updated accordingly on the ooc.

[Cerillium]

TY Min.

@Bran. Yes, I borrowed your character. I hope you don't mind. This gets him into the thick of things, and he has the first chance to spread the word and find people to go with him. (If he goes. Your call.)

[The BranRiech]

If I can, I'll get my post for Drova up tonight, and then the rest of my characters tomorrow. If not tonight, then all 3 characters get a post tomorrow.

[Cerillium]

No rush. Take your time crafting it.

@Gio. I'll reply for Rache tomorrow, if you don't mind too much. Took a lot of work to get the rest hammered out. Now have to go to bed. Morning comes early for me.

[Chedastan]

I plan to post for Romy hopefully sometime tomorrow.

[Giovenith]

@Gio. I'll reply for Rache tomorrow, if you don't mind too much. Took a lot of work to get the rest hammered out. Now have to go to bed. Morning comes early for me.

No mind at all, you've clearly done a lot today.

[The BranRiech]

Yeah, actually. Posts are going to be up tomorrow.

I need mah sleep.

[TotallyNotEvilLand]

I'll post later in the afternoon. Anyone interested in palling around with either of the Iracuses at the carnival?

if not i'll probably force them onto someone else

[New Aksarben]

Sterling could, he needs to get out and make friends with the mostly new group since he was here last

that is, if they'd wanna befriend a talking purple horse

Hell yeah, dude. It's like a game for them at this point! "Let's see if the next species we run into can top the last one in weirdness!"

That and I think Crysal and Sterling met briefly, about a year or two ago. Had a short conversation or two, but they might be able to recognize one another.

Maybe, though Sterling's still pretty caught up in trying to find where Willow got to

So yeah, that'd be cool.

Swoodtastic. Should we have them run into each other in the lobby / dining room or whatever after the initial wakeups?

Lobby seems good, yeah.

Swood? Jontron?

Aight. I'll throw together a waking up post for the two in a few hours, and we'll roll from there.

ECH

[Germanic Templars]

Lucius done.. Now gotta do Templar Co and "Divide and Conquer" with them.

[The BranRiech]

Just checking in before work tonight. I'll post when I return. Shouldn't be too busy tonight, and I'm first cut, so I'll be home earlier anyways.
