Legolover-361 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 Well I have a story arc that I'm about to start, and it starts with a character dying. Do I need to make a profile and post it in the Character Topic, or can I just run the person as a NPC? I would normally just post it in the Character Topic and not even ask, but I don't want to waste one character spot.You can just have an NPC die. Just don't make killing NPCs a regular occurance -- only the co-hosts and I have the power to do that.

Could you please clarify a bit? 'Twould be much appreciated.Well, according to this map of Techna I whipped together a little before the polls began, each square quadrant is one hundred square meters. Techna is thirty squares east-west (A.K.A. three thousand meters, or three kilometers) and ten squares north-south (one thousand meters, or one kilometer). I could change that fact if necessary, but at the moment it seems large enough to me.Indeed.

Blessed Blade Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I might have characters die; but like Lev, I typically only kill off characters if they need that for character plots and/or development. =P Though, then there's times when I want characters killed off, but people don't get the hint, and instead start to heal the character instead. xD *coughlevcough* The Pokemon TopicPokemon: Rise of the Rockets - Rise of the Rockets Discussion Topic - Rise of the Rockets Side Stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legolover-361 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 No, Techna doesn't take up the entirety of the starship. It's only within the central part. The entire starship is at least two kilometers longer than the space-city itself.Three square kilometers isn't much, true, but if the starship (right now measured at five kilometers) were much larger, it would be in more danger from incoming asteroids, slower to accelerate, etc. Right now it's just large enough to hold all of its population while being small enough to stay nimble.

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Or you could have Fulok discover the existance of a criminal syndicate by trailing a black cat made out of metal and investigate, only to find himself overpowered by a rogue toa of fire who utterly destroys him before he can stop his evil plans, thus demonstrating the villains potential for evil and extreme fighting abilities to the whole world...Or he could resign and live in the retirement home and hope Black Mage doesn't show up.Or he could stop being a member of the Toa Techna and instead simply be a normal character, continuing his once-per-four-page existence as a crime fighter who rarely shows up.Or mutated wasps from space could show up and eat him.Possibilities are endless for the goodbye Fulok story arc.-Toa Levacius Zehvor Edited January 11, 2012 by Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legolover-361 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 Yes, KNI, 'tis a dire predicament. I'm expecting all the staff, including whoever will soon be hired, to watch out for worthy players and characters; the Toa Techna's ranks are small, and while five co-hosts is enough in my opinion, five Toa Techna is pitiful.Shyyrn, nothing of importance to your character has happened. Skarloth has resigned from being co-host, and a few people have offered to replace him. Torch has closed Pro Coding Corp. due to a hacking attack, and Amnchey has revealed herself as a Hacker only to Torch (no meta-gaming, guys!). Matrapolix and Enaltai are fighting in Central Square.In short, Shyyrn, Forcyte has no commitments to honor at the moment. I don't know if Forcyte is still with Awk or not, but either way, feel free to have them wherever.In other, still somewhat related news, I've taken a placement test at a local community college, and my results suggest I'm clear to begin taking college mathematics courses in the coming semester. Taking those classes, coupled with having to deal with two co-ops, will severely cut down my available time to roleplay, so if I grow inactive during late January and most if not all of February, that's why.
