So far, we have a midget rahkshi named short with a mace taking on everyone, several blind rahkshi, such as Hoto or Era, who is level 5, rahkshi that are built like the hulk, one of whom has a shark fin, a rahkshi with high heels, toes, a feminine torso and a missing spine and now, if Bleach gets approved, we're having a rahkshi as tall as the Kraata that pilots a normal shell. I love this game.

[McNugget]

No, Nightmare must be the Second shortest in Existence! And if he finds out there is one shorter than him, he will try and squash like a bug...

[Nato G]

And everyone seems to forget the two-headed rahkshi....

[McNugget]

Well slight Genetic mutations are common... 

[Granberia Doragoon]

 

Name:  Taltrun

 

 

Variation: Heat Vision

 

Level: 2

 

Gender: Male

 

Gear: A long sword, survival knife

 

Appearance: He looks like a yellow rahkshi of fear, with bulky shoulder armour.  He has an armor decal on his right-arm shoulder armor that looks like Karzahni's mask, and a tattoo on his lower right arm that looks like a hand grenade.

 

Personality:  He's the brutal type, that feels "what a gun cant fix, a fist can".  He is also very explorative, wondering off in his free time.

 

Bio: Taltrun (Knick-named brass knuckle) was created 1 year ago by an unknown makuta.  Apparently he was "too brutal" for is makuta's purposes, and was abandoned.  Taltrun  learned to survive on his own, and eventualy started to randomly walk into villages and cause destruction (The wors he ever did was shoot up a matoran village).  He was later captured and shipped to Corpus Rahkshi.

Approved, though there are a few minor changes you may wish to make just for clarity (Karzakie is meant to be Karzahni, I assume?)

 

Thanks and I also corrected the name Karzahni.

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

Hi. I just got my character approved, and was wondering how I should join in?

 

Welcome to the game! But any entirely OOC posts, like yours or this one I'm writing, should go in this here discussion topic - the Student Register.

 

Most new Rahkshi join the game with a post detailing their arrival at the Causeway, like this recent arrival. (Hope you don't mind if I use you as an example, FallenAtlas.) Others just start up as if they had been in the school for a while. You could go either way, really, though at this point it's not much difference - almost everyone is out on the Causeway anyways.

[Granberia Doragoon]

Thanks

O.O.C. There was a loud banging on the front door. Everybody in the hall stood still.  It wasn't long before somebody, with their weapon drawn, went and opened the door.  They opened it, and immediately pointed there weapon at who was on the other side.  It was a rahkshi of heat-vision, who was badly injured.

 

I.C.  "H....hh..help.......me..."

 

O.O.C.  The rahkshi, who was now unconscious, fell to the ground.  He was dying.

OOC means "out of character". You should use it when you have to say something like "open for interaction", "I've got to leave now" or whenever you have to say something that isn't meant to be taken as the characters action or speech.

IC means "in character". You don't have to use it when your character is speaking only, it's used when describing actions as well. 

 

Some of us don't like it when you control our characters without permission and you did exactly that. It's called bunnying and it's no fun.  

 

Here's a fixed up version of your post. 

 

IC (As Example): There was a loud banging on the door, but it went unheard as most of the students left the causeway and the few rahkshi remaining were too engaged in their own battles to hear the noise. The door swung open as a rahkshi of heat vision, who was badly injured, hobbled in as he tried to speak. "H... H-H... Help... Me..." The rahkshi collapsed as he went unconscious. 

 

OOC: Open for interaction! Please save my character.

Undercover as a Matoran because it's easier to disguise something when it's small than when it's huge.

 

Like a Rahk.

 

 

Well, who really trusts a half-bio tall Rahk to be a combat expert? he was given the device to be a healer. Hence his want to heal Matoran.

[Granberia Doragoon]

Ok.  So, I'm a dying guy, laying on the floor by the front door of the school, and nobody has knowtised yet.

Alrighty, I'd like to have Kovinth try and do something in this situation, but before I do that I want to stamp down exactly what level 2 teleportation does so I'm not stepping on anyone's toes. I know it's short bursts at short range, but as far as specifics go, does anyone have any objections to five teleports in a short time at about a ten foot range?

[Wyrd Bid Ful Araed]

Undercover as a Matoran because it's easier to disguise something when it's small than when it's huge.

 

Like a Rahk.

 

 

Well, who really trusts a half-bio tall Rahk to be a combat expert? he was given the device to be a healer. Hence his want to heal Matoran.

So get a shapeshifting Rahkshi. Maybe get an illusion Rahkshi. Heck, if you didn't want interaction get a chameleon Rahk and they can just hang around in the background. Bleach's undercover style of "just being small" is pointless because he still looks like a Rahkshi and is going to have to do some of those things to disguise himself anyway. 

 

And what that last paragraph doesn't do is explain how he got that device. Especially as his Makuta clearly prefers him to be a spy not a psychotherapist

#SilIsRightForOnce

Who's Sill?

In other news, all my characters are OFI on the Causeway, especially everyone's favourite pyro...

[Ghidora131]

That second L was an i.

 

 

And his Makuta Did want him as a spy, but isn't wasteful. Otherwise he would have trashed him after his 'bleaching' accident. Instead, trains him painfully to level 2, equips him with a device that can only be used if he follows the path his Makuta wants him to take, and ship him to corpus to keep him in line and work out that fear.

[Sassy Dalmation]

IC: Matoran - Beach Cave.

 

"What the...?" he jerked backwards, recognising the outline of Rahkshi hands scratching in the dirt. What kind of trick was this?

 

I doubt the matoran would be able to see the hand. Since Mortsia has leveled up, he can:

 

Sand Yellow Metallic/Bright Yellow Chameleon Can blend in perfectly with any shadowed terrain.

 

And a cave is generally a fairly dark place. Unless blend in doesn't mean invisible... Not sure.

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

Well, blend in perfectly should, I would think.

[Nato G]

My understanding of Chameleon was that it worked best when the person using it wasn't moving. And while the cave may be dark, the sand Mortsia is scribbling in isn't. Since his hand is moving, the his chameleon won't be able to perfectly match the texture of the sand, thus making it semi-visible. 

[Sassy Dalmation]

Alright. That makes sense, but even so, I doubt that a matoran would be able to instantly recognize a Rahkshi hand, especially since they are nearly invisible.

Edited May 27, 2015 by Wielder-of-Shadow

[Nato G]

Chameleon =/= Invisibility. 

 

And considering that the Matoran was just attacked, kidnapped, and severely wounded by Rahkshi, and there's nothing else on the island with hands that big, I think it'd be pretty obvious what the hand belongs to. 

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

To be fair, if the words are going to be well-lit and close enough to be visible, it does seem a bit of a stretch for Mortsia's hand not to be.

[Sassy Dalmation]

Fair enough.

Question: Is every room in the dormitories unmarked or are there ways of identifying which room belongs to whom?

[Click]

I'm assuming there's some kind of numbering system and assignment. Hoto's room is specifically marked because... you know, blindness.

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

It's too bad we're all too busy killing each other for anyone to invent/discover braille.

[Naota Takizawa]

I can imagine her having some kind of sensor that opens the door automatically when Hoto returns to her room.

[Click]

There's no ADA in the Corpus universe. Makuta don't care about their disabled children.

 

...we should start one. Forget bands, we're organizing a club for developing Braille.

Edited May 28, 2015 by Click

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

Not likely to happen while we're still at Corpus, I think. Between rebellion and Matoran and the typical everyday brawling and everything else, there's just too much going on in the school to have the chance to concentrate on that. If we get to Malebranche, then perhaps we can work on such a feat, but the school is probably too turbulent right now.

 

I do heartily support the idea, though, obviously.

[Nato G]

It's too bad we're all too busy killing each other for anyone to invent/discover braille.

 

Era's been learning how to read letters carved into stone. It's how she figured out what the monuments out on the Causeway said. 

[Sergei Rahkmaninoff]

I had been wondering how that was even possible. Though, come to think of it, she would have learned the shapes at least through Dekako and Sontiri.

 

Still, letters carved in stone are not the most practical means of transferring information. At least you can make Braille books.

[Ghidora131]

Reposting Bleach profile with changes in Bio to better suit the game. Also posting Frog profile, and that will be my characters... Maybe.


Name: Bleach

Variation: Vacuum

Level: 2

Gender: Male

Gear: Bleach carries a small beetle-shaped device fused to the back of his hand, too small to be used in fighting. It has the ability to heal minds when he places that hand on another Rahk's head for even a moment. As said before, sucks in combat. He also has a diary in his dorm.

Appearance: Measuring half a Bio tall, Bleach is incredibly light and can throw himself around because of it. He was the usual Vacuum Rahk color until accident (see Bio) which bleached his head, body, and upper limbs white. His eyes are light blue.

Personality: Bleach is very easily scared, and seemingly helpless. He likes company, and is good-natured to everybody who doesn't scare him. He often gets nightmares when he sleeps. His intentions are to establish his own communications center to Matoran and heal them when they are troubled, although he has no idea if his device will work on them. (it only works slightly on anything besides Rahkshi)

Bio:

Bleach was designed to infiltrate Matoran villages, but proved too cowardly and soft. Not wanting to scrap his creation, his Makuta fitted him with the beetle-shaped device to literally force him into life as a healer. During a factory accident in his Makuta's laboratory, his body was dumped on by sulfurous materials, staining it permanently white and erasing the nice paint from before. After which, he proved his reasonable combat skills and was assigned to corpus.

 

 

 

Name: Frog

 

Variation: Power scream

 

Level: 2

 

Gender: Male

 

Gear: A couple of "canes" which are incredibly strong metal maces with blunt ends. An electronic keyboard with built-in speakers, kept in his dorm. It is fitted with a rechargeable battery. Battery charger in his dorm. Also, probably should count this as gear: Has a long, stretchy, sticky tongue which can latch onto light objects and pull them into his mouth, stretching 3 Bio away(at the most. Usually it's just 2 Bio as 3 is where it starts to hurt). NOTE: the tongue is, indeed, inside his mouth.

 

Appearance: Normal Rahk height. Handles on maces painted brown to look like wood. Eyes appear to be fire at all times, even though they don't work. Hunched a bit. And has a really, really big head and strong, thick neck.

 

Personality: Frog is secluded, not willing to talk to anyone. He also likes to exercise a lot. Due to his blindness, he is unable to see(duh), which is an impediment on many of his activities. Still, he has trained himself to use his keyboard to play wonderful music of multiple varieties and considers himself quite the composer.

 

Bio: Frog started out life oddly, due to a neurological growth disorder that increased the size of his head incredibly. The suit he was being put in had to be modified and re-modified to fit him, and when it was all said & done, the Makuta that made him decided to throw him to Karz and hope he burned. He changed his mind, however, when several weeks of being alone gave the Rahk a musical crave. He began to make notes out of pieces in the floor, walls, and ceiling of his small room. So impressed was the Makuta that he had him write songs and play them during battles of other Rahks, torture sessions of Matoran, and likewise. He eventually reached level 2 and was shipped to Corpus to see how good of a fighter he actually was.

 

Other: One talent he has kept to himself, that revealing would be shocking. He's rather embarrassed by it. He's a superb, unnaturally talented singer.

[Naota Takizawa]

Do we get to level up if we create a way of assisting the disabled? 

[Nato G]

So far none of the disabled/handicapped/impaired have exhibited a need for help. Hoto has no problems with her blindness, Vaalku somehow gets around just fine despite lacking an arm and a leg, and Illusive can communicate just fine. 

[Leoxandar Arktanus]

Hi! I was hoping to get active in the RPs here and was wondering if someone could explain what exactly this is, 'cause it looks fun

[McNugget]

Well, for an Explanation as to what it is, look no further than Here!, but for a Recap of whats happened over the past 400 pages of the IC topic, look to Click's Recap Here.
