otter Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I have made a new character. His name is Bauglir. He has an iron tower in the middle of a desert land, a large warhammer and shield, fancy armour with an oddly shaped Tryna with three crystals shining upon his brow.Guess who he's based off of.what does he want? D:To control all of Mata-Nui. profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkakuBen Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I'm taking too long between posts lol... can someone give me a quick summary of what's happened within the last week or two, specifically in Ga-Wahi? I have no idea where Vacir is, and I really don't feel like reading through a dozen pages of posts that, for the most part, don't concern me in the slightest :PThanks in advance.

Jean Valjean Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Thor?By the way, I have two characters there right now, if you're interested. Well, you can look at my profiles on them to see if they're worth interacting with. They don't make for major plot-movers, but they do add a little to the narrative and make the journey a little sweeter. Although if only Kraggh spoke a litle more often. Darn.You know, one of these days I'm going to have it where I take to write a BZP (Big Zonking Post) where Kraggh finally says his first word in this RPG. So long as it's a good read and I have a good story idea for it.Your Honor,Tyrannosaurus Kraggh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, there was no Loki to mess with his hammer and make it all short. It has a very long haft.Here, I'll give a hint: Elves hate him.

Jean Valjean Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I probably have never heard of this character, or so my hunches are telling me judging by the way you speak of this author and by how the crystals on the head sound completely unfamiliar.By the way, there's a character I want to use eventually. Although it will be after a long plotline where I gradually reveal the members of an old Toa team calling themselves, and after I draw her. I want her to be a Toa of Water, and I want her name to be Ghoti.And it will be pronounced "Cathy".Now, here's the question. When I begin my posts with her, should I write them like thisIC: (Ghoti [pronounced "Cathy"])or like this?IC: (Ghoti)Your Honor,Tyrannosaurus Kraggh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean Valjean Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 : Okay, never mind what I said earlier. Oakenshield, obviously. You are going to have your character say "That still only counts as one!", aren't you?

Jean Valjean Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) Oh yes, that sounds familiar. I haven't read the Salmarillion, although I've seen a picture of him and recall a crown of sort, although I didn't look too closely.

otter Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) Very interesting. I must learn more about this character. Where are they at the moment?Po-Wahi, currently wandering the dunes from his iron tower.I'm trying to refrain from calling it Angband, though...mainly because Angband wasn't a tower, more so a deep fortress in the Earth. Wasn't Utumno a tower? I can't remember exactly.I know that Barad-dûr was definitely a tower.EDIT: Nevermind, Angband was closer to being a tower. Utumno was the first fortress, the pits of Udûn in the far north, destroyed when Melkor was chained by the Valar during the years of the trees, when the light did not reach Middle Earth.

Jean Valjean Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 You know, now that I've read the post, I think I'll actually stay away from him. He doesn't seem to match the type of narrative I go for with my characters. In particular, you taking him a bit seriously. Not saying that's bad, but it's in the way that leads to a lot of drama, which I find a bit hard to sustain when I'm interacting with a character. Of course, I've only reentered the RPGing habit, and back in the day I think I actually went for pretty dramatic stories, but no more. Right now I go for stuff that's just real fun but still deep as far as character development.Your Honor,Tyrannosaurus Kraggh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otter Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Well, when we look at who he's based off of...the whole Dramatic thing makes sense, eh? profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Valjean Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah, pretty much. And a very specific brand of drama, too. I wonder what you would call it...High Drama?
