Well then why are we getting affected by the curse?
I believe that madness can find more madness, and that every ounce of madness has a spark of truth. And truth, as you know, has a way of depressing people who don't want to find it.

No one is 100% honest... We all keep 20% of the truth from the world, to protect ourselves & sometimes others.

Have you never heard the ancient Chinese curse?

So with all of this talk about ships...how much of the time will we actually be out at sea? Or will most of this RP take place on land. I get a pirate theme from the setting, but not from the characters.

And I thought Kaga was ;)

In this new case, I may have to expand my horizons. I noticed a possible good combination between her and Astaric in that they could both comfort each other and cope with their pasts. I would like to know Relikai's thoughts though.

No, no... Mazin might be a good friend of Kaga's... But I think Aly might be the best character for him.

I'll have to speak with Reli then. I see some good potential character development between our two.

If he isn't too upset with my mess-up in our previous RP together :3

Aly is a strong independent woman who don't need no man!

But really I would rather role play the shipping parts to see where she will gravitate too over the course of time...instead of committing her from the start to one character.

Honestly, I just want my character to be in a relationship and just be with someone. I don't want him to be irrelevant and I want him to have someone close to him and not be a lonely sack of uselessness.

To beat the other guys off of Aly with.

So who should my character know in this RP? Skimming through bios and finding it hard to gauge how long some have been here...or my skimming abilities are just pretty terrible.

And I don't mean is friendly with or have had a conversation with, more just I would be able to match the name with a face and know a fact or two about. So pretty much those who have been in the group for more than a month?

Relationships does not equate Relevancy.
Russia's an idiot. So is the US, and quite a few of the western sphere. Population education and literacy is your issue, not the politics of foreign nations.

I should rephrase. When I say irrelevant I mean more of him not being connected with anybody else in any way and simply feels "along for the ride", so to speak.

Ezekiel. Assume everyone knows at least SOMETHING to do with Ezekiel. He gets around...so to speak.

AoV, Coil in, Melanie, and Raven. Not really a war per say. More like treading mine infested waters.

Oh, right.

I still think Melanie should have been an earlier entry into that RP.

I liked her more than Raven, to be truthful.
