Mine's an Arabic-Persian prince.

If you look at the PL Classic tab in the second post, and click on the End of the First Invasion tab, you'll see my post of the resolution of the only really major plot point that Lance took a part in.

I could send some characters there. I was about to park the Thriller Family in the lobby for the trip departure, but Minerva and Misaki are still free. Naomi would scare the crap out of the guy. I could still break Minerva away for when Cer logs on. We've got a scene planned. Frankly, his schedule has been so crappy that it might turn into yet another collab. The one with Tilt took us... what? Days upon days? The scene was technically the day after Zalgofest and was only posted last night! EEK!

I actually wasn't around for the time Lance was here, but from what bits I've read, his prince (I THINK) seems to be more of a harmless kind of rudeness, whereas Octavian is an diagnosed psychopath. I believe. Truthfully, don't know much about Lance to say for certain. Seems different enough to make it interesting.

He always had good intentions, yes. Never really threatened to kill anyone.

Kind of a badass when it came to fucking up his own father's soldiers :p

Well, Octavian feeds his subordinates to a massive lizard when they mess up, killed the personification of a nation because she shot him (after nearly killing her before, he attacked her with a radioactive teddy bear), uh.... attacked a prince of another land out of spite(later became friends with the same guy strangely enough).... anything else I've said he's done that I missed?

Drova's just generally arrogant, he's never really done anything like that before. He doesn't yet have the authority to have people killed yet.

Besides, he keeps his arrogance to a lower level because he likes his sister, and tries keeping up a non-arrogant view on things for her.

On the hunt for apartment pic.

Nation Nickname: Lance (Or Spear, if your name is Tiltjuice)

Character Name (can be different than nation name): See the above, you think I'm actually gonna have people type out an Arabic name?

URL to Character Picture or a few sentences about what they look like: He's changed little in his time away, only aging perhaps to be 25 now. His olive skin and dark hair and eyes are like that of any native of the empire, though he holds himself in high regard and carries himself in similar manner. If features could be described as being regal and proud, his would fit the bill. His always extravagant silk robes he always wears, or at least one of the sets, as he has many.

Character Species (nation personification, human, alien, etc): Nation Personification

Character Powers/Special Abilities (if any): Still possessing the magic of the ancient civilization (which his father had used previously to find his way forward in time and Lance used himself to go back to rule his empire), he reserves the ability to do so at will. His father's saber is also enchanted with some sort of magic making the apparently mundane blade one of incredible strength.

Character Weaknesses/Flaws: His prideful and egotistical nature often get in the way of wisdom. Over the time he has been gone this has been tempered somewhat, but it still exists within him.

Character Background: The second King of Lancearc in traditional history, his father had originally sent him forward in time to learn what the future world had to offer and to learn the fate of their empire, which he was pleased to find still stood long after he would pass.

Additional Notes:

URL to Apartment Picture: Must find perfect depiction of Ancient Persian throne room, shall return to this one.

Link to RP examples: Pfft, like I need this. (I'll fetch one if I really have to :p )

IMPORTANT:
One paragraph that sums up your character. This paragraph is what we'll use on your player tab on the first page of the thread. This MUST be brief. Your tab will contain a link to your application so people will have full details: In all, Lance is still just what he once was - a spoiled prince. In the time he was gone ruling over his nation in the distant past he learned many things such as responsibility and how to temper his overconfidence and arrogance, but this does not mean he has mastered the art. He is still overconfident, and still arrogant, but he does not force his rule onto others as he once did. He is wiser, but still young with a lot left to learn before he is ready to return to his own time and rule for the rest of his days. While some find it hard to stomach him he is very loyal those he calls friend.

Scratch that, apartment pic hunting over.

It's certainly a lot bigger on the inside.

It looks fine to me. We've changed a lot since the old thread. Bringing in armies isn't something players do anymore, and the game actually has structure. One-liner battles have gone the way of the dino (NVE is NOT extinct, however). We've slowly evolved into a quasi-serious RP.

no,i always use the japanese anime/manga definition of it.

It's a slur for a person with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Mental illness of any kind is shameful in some cultures. It's purposely heightened in some manga to paint a mentally ill person as evil or vile. They're made to feel ashamed rather than understood in society. The term is like a flash fire in American culture and anime fans run with it without realizing the harshness (and insult) behind it.

For example, let's substitute words...

"She's yandere," says Bob as he points to the girl with bipolar disorder.
"He's a nigger," says Sue as she points to the black guy.
"He's a fag," says John as he points to the homosexual boy.
"She's a retard," says Steve as he points to the kid with Asperger syndrome.
