Wotz Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Wow, just took a look at my old posts from Pre-Downtime, and my writing style was A LOT better. I could learn a thing or two from past-me I'm now contemplating whether to introduce my Ta-Koro guys at a later date, seeing as I just came up with a dozen character arcs for all my current chars D U N E W O L F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mef Man Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I think you can write well right now. To help, maybe you could spend more time thinking through what to write and how to word it as well as going over it? Just a thought.-Mef http://www.bzpower.c...t=80#entry44488 My BZPRPG characters.

BULiK Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Days ago. The Rogue Raiders got to him first before anybody else could.Snelly and Wrath already have his clue so it's allowable. The only two that haven't had their clues retrieved are Kapura and Taipu so we can't remove them from the game quiet yet.Kopeke's hut is discovered trashed.The Raider's Message to the Forces of Darkness.I really wanted to do the message in Matoran script but the boards wouldn't let me use that many emoticons in one post.but, you could use the matoran script font, and type the message up in paint, then make a rectangular outline over it, add some black around one side, and then rotate it in gimp and smudge the black to make it look like a shadow, and maybe add some brown, tan, or green, as dirt, etc. if you wanted to, then upload it to brickshelf or another image hosting site, then add the image to your post.no matter how long it seems too take with my vivid description, it would only take 5 to 10 minutes, IMO.ya know, i might actually try that.EDIT:I just realized that it was carved into the wall, right? so you wouldn't add a shadow *facepalm* Edited January 17, 2012 by Bulik Visit www.BZPRPG.com to view my project of archiving BZPower's RPGs, and also access the BZPower Roleplaying Wiki BZPRPG Profiles - Ghosts Of Bara Magna Profiles Exo-Force RPG Profiles - Six Kingdoms: Apocalypse (Knichou, Berys, Arnex, The Taku, Exuze) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPUA Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 You'd be correct. I spent so much effort on the plot, I miiiight have loosened up a bit on the character. But my differences with him and the inspiration material will appear soon enough, as always.He's still an interesting character. Although, I will be creeped out heavily every time you post with him, due to his similar appearance with the Others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalama and Ta Rahkshi Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Why shouldn't we? A picture is worth a thousand words is it not? We're visual beings. We like to see things.

The Lorax Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 About Kopeke's kidnapping, what would have hapenned to my character standing guard over Kopeke when the raiders kidnapped him? It's a little awkward just having his charge disappear when he was right there, so was he just bashed on the head from behind by an NPC? Was he kidnapped too? I'm wondering what I should do with him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalama and Ta Rahkshi Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) That's exactly what makes the Ghekula suited for Black Ops. XDYou never had line of sight with him to begin with. Kopeke was a shut in and he didn't let anyone inside of his hut. He also stayed in as much as possible so you were pretty much just watching a hut. It's also likely they snagged him before you even got there as they went rogue a good solid time well before you brought your character there. You never really did investigate the place. You just showed up and sat there.Odds are if you called attention to yourself by moving you would have been killed. That said chances are you were probably there when Kalama came by so I am a little curious as to why you didn't reveal yourself.

The Lorax Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I haven't done anything up until now because I (unfortunately) missed the first post, and after that it was a bit too late for him to prevent a capture, seeing as it had already happened. Up until now, I've been indecisive about how to deal with the issue.As for the timing of the attack, Weta was there a good 8 days (real time) before either of the discovery posts, and he didn't notice the broken-down door when he arrived, I'd say he was present for the kidnapping. Shall we just say he put a a bit of a fight but was knocked out by the raiders? That seems to fill in most of the plotholes from his perspective.

Kalama and Ta Rahkshi Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 That sounds fine.Let's say in the fight he got wounded because the Raiders would have killed him but despite appearing like a mortal wound it was a light one and he passed out going into shock. He woke up still alive and because of the wound, that's why he missed Kalama and the Toa, because he was left for dead and healed naturally.

BBBBalta Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Looking to make a new character or two; I've got plenty of ideas, but only a few of them could probably work. Any suggestions of guilds looking for members, etc. would be appreciated.Question: Is the "Minions of Makuta" guild open, i.e. could I join straight up, would I have to get staff permission, is it invitation only, or what?

Kalama and Ta Rahkshi Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 There's plenty of military work to be done. Barring that you've got the two pirate crews, the Mystix are recruiting, The Island Liberation Squad is out there, probably a few Toa teams out there I can't name off the top of my head.Personally I think you can run amok as a freelance minion of Makuta but you might need to talk to the staff for orders on evil plotz. Otherwise Emzee would be the guy to talk to and I don't think he'd have a problem with it.

Hanako Herupa Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 We still need a staff member to RP Hewkii in Po-Wahi. Could someone do that?-MefMef, I distinctly remember that as long as it was something insignificant, like a personal plot, like Valria's. Yhen the average RPer could roleplay the canon NPC but only for the moments needed, never out of character, and never anything dramatic (like killing that character) that and I didn't need to make it privy to staff cause it doesn't really affect anyone except my characters and Mef, Agni and a few others who I talked to about it. However you will need staff after we finish with getting what Valria needs to know, cause well that other stuff is staff-related. So you need them for that.

EmperorWhenua Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) In short, what The Mask is saying is that unless your business with the canon NPC has to do with the staff plot or is your character looking for a task to do, there is no reason to bug the staff. But in those cases, you should directly contact with the staff instead of posting here.
