[Agritum]

So, just out of curiosity, about when do you think you'll start your mecha RP, Agri?

Summer, Olthar.

Awwww.

[Agritum]

Summer, Olthar.

Awwww.

Sorry for that, but it is the period of the year ahere I have no risk that I would suddenly find no time to OP it.

[Olthar]

Awwww.

I know, but I just don't want to have to wait. Oh well. It's only five months. It can't be that long, right? ...Right?

Don't worry, they'll pass

Not fast enough.

I had a new RP idea - it would be aw and Order: Special Victims Unit, or Criminal Minds-based, but with new, original characters added.
Any takers for this RP, won't be ready until March.

Some Mecha action to keep you occupied.

[Firstaria]

Meh, I'm annoyed. I still don't have my PC so I can't seem to be able to start any decent RP, and the ones going on now...actually there is a sort of slow down in new ideas. Any suggestion (VIA TG so we don't spam) on RP I could join?

[Olthar]

...actually there is a sort of slow down in new ideas.

I find that insulting. Clearly, you never even saw my Darkwater Chronicles. It's awesome.

[Constaniana]

Plus, Elementals. Who doesn't love a RP about wizards, evil ninjas, daemons and lesbians?

I don't think Elementals actually has any lesbians. Froenstia seems like she'd fuck anything that moves, and Rebecca is quite asexual only having an exception for Froenstia.

You have a point there.

I was talking more about news, RP already going on for a while I usually try to not disturb except if invited.

Darkwater Chronicles is still pretty new. We're also looking for new members as we've just gotten over the first speed bump where we inexplicably lose several members who just joined a week prior.

I need some advice. When setting up a role-play based in the medieval time period with the essential lords and ladies how would one organize such things. I want to make it realistic but still keep things a bit more magical. Not fully realistic because the lore involved will have small aspects of magic in it. Any advice or people willing to help me and my friend set up the role-play please post.

PS: Should we have races and how wide should we expand

1 No races just humans
2 Small off branches of humans
3 Some small races not largely used or seen
4 Full out races, dwarves, elves, and even orcs.

[Firstaria]

Races are not forcefully part of magical lore you know, elves orcs and dwarves may still work even without magic.

Some Scarce Information On My Mecha RP's Setting Poorly Disguised As A Banter On UN Cease and Desist Practices

So, here's a little question: is the UN really so prone to issue Cease and Desist orders on this very site? Other than the whole WA renaming thing, it seems that they are pretty shooty about people using their logo, flag and name without their clearance. I never saw any nation here on NS using the UN flag as their flag, as un-inventive it would have been.

If so, am I taking risks if I use the name "United Nations" for their counterpart in the RP? And if said counterpart will use one of their flags, the General Assembly one? Maybe they'll be pleased of knowing they have some sort of standing Mecha squadrons in my RP (Which are actually joint international units with the UN only as their juridical and logistic support. And that suffers from quite a lack of funds, mediocre recruits and have the the dangerous job of intercepting STYGMA formations.j

Yeah, maybe. I'd guess that the RL UN wouldn't be pleased to discover that their fictional counterpart, while having a noble Charter, is actually just a place of squabble for diplomats and almost incapable of actually dealing with international crises, forced to abide to the pressures of the world's counterpart of the USA (Focea, a multi-ethnical Federation which is actually a decent enough nation which is quite prone to making errors.), and having a standing army composed of the nations' most mediocre recruits and equipment.

But hey, the protagonists will be most likely decent people with an heroic slant, who want to truly uphold the ideals of the UN charter and blow STYGMA up in their baby blue-painted mecha.
Maybe the UN will like that?

Then what do you advise regarding races. I was only going to use magic a dash there and here but not largely. Any adivse on setting it up as well?

So, since I still really want to do a Pokémon RP, I was thinking about ways to do it differently than the normal "collect the badges" kind of story, and I decided it would be fun to do a more Mystery Dungeon-esque RP where the players are Pokémon instead of trainers. Thoughts?

Actually count me in. Surprisingly I've returned into Pokemon a lot after I ended up receiving an old DS and was able to pull in back all my Ranger and Mystery Dungeon games.

I've been thinking about doing one of those for some time, when I'm done my exams. I'd be up for it, though less than active. When you say Mystery Dungeon, do you mean complete with rescues and missions, or just in the fact that we'd b RPing Pokémon?

[Altito Asmoro]

I have a though, about make an RP based on V for Vendetta, of course it will begin after the ending of the movie. I will call it:

"FREEDOM FOREVER - V FOR VENDETTA - THE NEW BEGINNING"

So?
