So for the three of you who actually care, you might've noticed that Perpetual and its related topics have been closed. "By request," as B6's closing posts say. Well... yeah. That's not a mistake--I asked for the RPG to be closed late last night after mulling it over for roughly two weeks. I won't begin to go into the reasons why I think Perpetual failed; suffice it to say that it boils down to the fact that there was virtually no direction given to the players. In hindsight this is somethin
Alright; while I continue to think over the City name, I have another question for you potential Day Run players.
As most people should know, Night Ride's central point was the vehicle aspect of it. We had hoverboards, we had motorcycles, we had a giant wheel, we had Rahi-shaped mecha, and, heck, we even had a horse and a walking house.
(FYI: None of these are accurate representations.)
So, here's what I have to propose as an expansion to this. Bipedal mecha. Similar to the ones from Da
Hi, Broken Unity readers. So, you might have noticed that I'm in one of my usual "I'm trying to update the story, but can't for various reasons" phases, and I deeply, deeply apologize for that.
To compensate for that, I'm going to start doing teasers for BU's sequel, Dark Deeds, which will hopefully start sometime in the summer. Read on for more!
To start, I bring you two of the members of one of the primary antagonist groups, Toa Dacres and Toa Sekrit.
Who are they? What are their powers
Kay, so, here's the deal: There are ten days left until the contest ends, and I'm still not finished with Day Run. But don't fear -- as of today I'm diverting 88% of my attention to it. Luckily, I already know what I need and want to put where and what I want to include and what not.
The one thing I still do not have, however, is a name for the city in which it takes place -- but you can help! Simply post whatever suggestions for the city name you can come up with in a comment and then I'll ch
Toa Lyxek, leader of The Ring.
A Toa of Sonics, Lyxek abandoned the life of a true Toa after nearly being killed in battle by a Dark Hunter. With an unusual affection for gambling and cards, Lyxek became a crime lord on the city island of Kai-Nam, where he has managed to become one of the most powerful crime lords in the area. Recently he came into contact with --------; now, he believes he has the power to not only control the whole of Kai-Nam, but the surrounding islands as well.

So there are only ten hours left of voting, and Day Run is barely holding its place in third. Perhaps this will have convinced some of you guys to give it a few more votes--and given everyone an idea of just what might be in store for the future... >=) Final poll, entry #2. Vote Day Run!
12 Legendary Pokémon (Rayquaza, Kyogre, Groudon, the Deoxys Matriarch, three other specialist Deoxys, three Latios, and three Latias) vs. 9 super powerful ancient Darkrai with power over time and space. WHO WILL WIN THE TITLE OF DEADLIEST POHKAMOHN (TEAM)!? >:0
A'ight, so, some of you may remember this entry, and if not, well, there you go--take a look at it so you know what I'm talking about. Well, I've given the idea a bit of thought, and I think it's time I presented the general idea to the public. Day Run ended last month. During the finale, we learned that what Lyxek really wanted was immortality. Due to numerous circumstances, he failed in obtaining that, and Ruaki was, for lack of a better term, destroyed. Well, what if in an alternate uni
So I just heard from an anonymous source that the theme for the next RPG contest is going to be crime scene investigation. As in, investigating a major murder is going to have to be a central plot point. If you are in Day Run, then you realize the implications of this. HINT: I can't enter Day Run, because that's not a central plot point in its story! DX Now, if you're like me, then you are unhappy about this. Believe me... so am I. I just said that. But never fear! To honor Day Run and its
Bumping for contest.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Name: Kerid.
Faction: The Day Run.
Species: Upper-Class Steltian (Sidorak’s species.)
Gender: Female.
Description: Eight feet tall, with a muscular and heavily armored, navy blue form. Kerid is an incredibly intimidating being in both appearance and personality, at least at first glance; her armor is equipped with several strange devices, many of whose abilities are unknown, and her Kanohi Pakari gives her a rather col
mmm..... so RPG Contest #22 voting is going to begin soon. I'm not sure if I'm actually nervous or not at the prospect of losing -- which, given the number of extremely good entries this time around, is a very real possibility. So... eh. Not sure what I'm trying to say here. I suppose, I'm not necessarily going to mind if I lose this time -- and, frankly, I almost feel a little hopeful that I do. I really feel like the downtime did some serious damage not only to ROTR and Day Run, in terms o
OH MY GOD. Thank the spirits for that stop button--I was one second away from going to a different page and losing this really large Day Run post. Phew. Guess I'd better copy it in case something like that happens again... Now back to work...
At the risk of being stalked (and making countless women (and men?) across the forum swoon,) here's a picture of me from my mom's wedding. Spoilered linked, of course, because I don't want to look at my face every time I scroll down this blog. Pic. The woman over my right shoulder is my oldest sister, Courtney. And the blur around her is not due to any photo editing, surprisingly enough. edit: fine, dv. :\
So, after being set back by about 11000 due to lack of a computer that I could spend hours on at a time at my mom's house, I'm finally mostly almost caught up with NaNo again. Only 6000 words behind. That's not bad, is it? ... is it? D: Regardless, things are coming along nicely. At this point I've introduced a lot of the new characters to the story -- some of them are probably going to be familiar to players in Day Run, to an extent, though I'll keep the specifics to myself. Once again I real
Hello again, BZPower! I'm back with another two or so weeks of "Support Day Run!!" messages. I'm not going to say much--the end result of the RPG Contest will largely fall into the hands of the people who frequent that forum, anyway--but I would like to make a case for why Day Run is a good choice. So please, if you would... Consider the Following What is Day Run: The Garden? Day Run: The Garden is an RPG that was put together by Parugi, moderated by Parugi, and played by Parugi and a boat
It's soooo outdated. Who wants to help me revise/update it? Alternatively, give me ideas of what needs to happen with it here and I will work from that.
Okay... I'm going to be honest here: The deeper we get into Day Run's finale and its last week, the less and less motivated I feel to finish it. I don't know why. Maybe it's because I'm realizing as things go along that the gigantic down times really screwed up a lot of the plot and that things have evolved at this point so far beyond what I had initially conceived that I'm finding it impossible to figure out how any of it ties together in any sort of coherent way. If there's a lesson to be
Okay. I'm going to say this now: If this new Fire-Type starter evolves into a Fire/Fighting-Type, I might throw something. Having said that, I'm actually really excited for--and surprised by--this. Seems like only yesterday Gen. V was being released... and added to RotR... Which, to get this out of the way now: 1. Gen. VI will not be added to Rise of the Rockets until its Japanese release. As such, just like the case was supposed* to be with Gen. V, there will be no early-bird cameos. 2. I
RPG Contest #23 has begun. So here's my schedule for the next two weeks regarding Day Run: March 2-4 - Finish editing and enter Day Run. March 10 - Broken Unity rewrite begins. At some point in the next three weeks - A continuation of "One" will be posted. Also, some exciting news! Yesterday my school district had a Junior Career Convention, where we basically learned a bunch of stuff relating to getting jobs. I talked to one of the speakers there and he told me that he would get me in tou
Since I somehow got the posting thing to listen to me this time (for the most part), Day Run has been reposted. Yes, I am aware that I need to update the links in all three topics. And along with that, a few notes for people: -I am aware that the Events information is missing; I'm going to work on fixing that next week, when I'm back at my dad's house. The team list in the profiles topic is also missing; this was intentional, as I found it a bit redundant to keep the same list in both the disc
All right. So, for those who volunteered to help out with fixing/updating RotR's opening, I've given the front post some thought about what needs to be done. Just to begin with, here's what I think needs to be updated: -The Introduction It's really old. While it's fine for nostalgia's sake, all it does at this point is show the events leading up to the RPG, and does not really reflect anything that has happened recently--one might be led to assume that Operation RALLY is still the main startin
