Re: Emoria: OOC

[Bird of Hermes]

As far as collections of things go, I can give you a list of creatures that inhabit the Elemental Planes, if anyone wants to know. I am also writing up a more detailed description of the sentient races of the Elemental Planes. I am planning to do a write up of the Elemental Planes' reaction about the letter that Venteux is going to send them about the meeting, but I don't know what thread to put that in since it takes place on the Plane of Earth.

This is one of the reasons I half wish I had chosen to do something else. By being the Darkness I make it so that everything I create gets cast down in the end.

[Dax]

Everyone likes a story about redemption, Raptor, never forget that. I am sure that Alos and or Jean could purify races if they wre corrupted into the shadows back to the light or at least neutrality. If they were all created by pure shadow, then, well, thats just too bad.

Edit: Or when Morgarath falls they would just become normal creatures that are more savage then others. They wouldn't necessarily need to be evil because they wouldn't have said leader.

ALSO, where are the IC posts? There is an awful lot of planning and not that much of executing. xD

[Buzzwulf]

funny you should mention that... I'm typing up my Kamon'Belkar post now

Also: Fluesopp, when did you get so damn good at maps? You're driving me insane. I often GM in RL, and one of my big hobbies is making maps, but I haven't really managed to find any good programs/techniques for creating said maps.

PLEASE TEACH ME YOUR WAYS

[Guest]

I would not mind learning how to do that myself either. Really nice maps.

Also dax, there is not too much fun to playing broken remnants. We will just have to see what happens. I may make a new nation when this is all over.

[Guest]

I, too, would love to learn how you make those maps. I've always had a passion for it, but never the patience I suppose.

[Dax]

Meh, I just use Paint to do the maps... xD

Well, you all better get good at making maps so we can pump you all for the best!

And yah I know Raptor, I was just saying that if you wanted to keep some of your creations alive, ya know?

[Gadreille]

vote now!

[Dax]

I just realized we filled up the last OOC thread. I was wondering what the heck there were two OOC's, xD.

So I went ahead and updated my Information post with all of the details of Vatiennes land army. There is quite a bit of info there.

[Kalon Ordona II]

Okay, before I read anymore of the OOC, I need to respond to what was responded to.
There's some misunderstanding going on.

All I said about the Spirit Plane is that something is there. Something IS there. It's not empty space. That's just common sense, and that's all I said. Nowhere have I stated or inferred that my world-space's beliefs are necessarily accurate.

Something spoke to the Thendári. They call it the Highest. How was that unclear?
So, whatever everyone was thinking, just mentally take it right back, if you please. I know what rules the GM's have put in place.
Raptorman had it right as far as the papus is concerned.


Edit:
Fluesopp! Please allow me to be a disciple of yours as well! Maps are awesome!!

Which reminds me, I think I already shared this map with everyone, but I didn't see it in the Info thread.


I was going to volunteer to make the religions list, but I suppose I should do the portraits instead. xD I'll still do it if no one else does, I guess, if that's cool with everyone.


As for the flying things, I was thinking maybe there are only dragons on the eastern island, and maybe they're too big to fly long distances (to explain why they're not on Talonia as well).

[Gadreille]

I've never seen that map before!!! How did I miss it!

If you know where you originally posted it, please let me know so I can kick myself.

[Fluesopp]

I don't know who made the first map of the world, but the very first basic thing a cartographer should know is to get the rivers right.
Rivers join as they go toward the sea. They do not split, never.
Seccondly, rivers never travel across mountains.

(except when they extends into deltas or swamps)

And for those who wish to learn cartography, http://cartographersguild.com/
That's where I learned. And yes, it takes a lot of patience. Now I usually spend about 6 hrs per map. The first map I made I think I spent twice the time.

[Gadreille]

Everyone got to make their own worldspace, so everyone contributed to the first map. The area I think you are talking about with the river mistake would have been Sighlents, who is no longer a part of this role play. That said, if you want to fix it I wouldn't care

Edit: Bird of Hermes, perhaps your post you want to write can be in the RP you are currently in, but in italics or something?

Perhaps I'll go and make my introductions... I've been looking for an excuse to get editing software anyway.

Specifically, which program do you use, Flue? And do you use a stylus?

[Fluesopp]

No, but I've contemplated it. Mayby later.
I use Photoshop CS5, which I bought as a student license.

Got a new computer today. Asus U35JC.

[Gadreille]

@Plague & Lady: I've officially begun working on my character. It is going to be a girl, and I already have the portrait done I just need to create the information.

Edit: I think I've announced this a million times, but just in case you missed it I am role playing a survivor of Sretin.

@Hello Danger: Wake me up when you posted dude.

Edit edit: Please post in the voting thread if you have voted so that I know when to close the vote.

[Dax]

GAH, not an ASUS. xD Don't break it and you'll be fine. They have the worst customer service ever, it is ridiculous. Just ask Silvone, I practically ran into a thread, late, warning him about the dangers of ASUS. lol

Anyway, KALON, post!

[Shadow Moonseye]

So, I was one of the people who failed on the creatures...and I'm really sorry about that! I still plan to get it done, but building critters from scratch is tough work. I'll try and get a good list of the notable ones of the southern continent done by the end of the month.

And if you guys still want to do a religions thingy, I can write up a bunch of stuff for the I'nak. Also, probably gonna be making a character sheet for Tusohe's mom here soon, since she's going to be an important player.

Well...that's all I can think of off the top of my head. So...Shadow, Away!

I didn't mean to put blame on anybody! Lol, I just wanted to explain that it was in the works but I am not an all powerful being with the patience and fortitude to finish the information thread. It's a bitch just keeping up with it haha.

[Shadow Moonseye]

Hehe, no worries! I was just owning up to my own failures! I can imagine, there's a lot of stuff packed into that little thread.

Also, post wise me and plague are planning a collab on with Ayurent and Tusohe right now, so keep your eyes peeled peeps.

They're gonna ruin Jean's night. XD

[Dax]

quote="Shadow Moonseye"]They're gonna ruin Jean's night. XD[/quote]

Why am I happy about this? LOL

Will this post be up tonight?

[Shadow Moonseye]

I'm not sure. It depends on how fast we work. I've got about two hours before I have to head out to work, so we'll see.

[Buzzwulf]

Couldn't we theoretically just introduce critters as they're needed in-game?

Looking forward to shadow-plague collab. Haven't heard from you guys in too long

[Guest]

I had to edit the post to add something, Hello Danger. So if you already read it, you might want to go back and read the last few lines. I had forgotten to include something, so I had to go back and add it. Sorry...

[Gadreille]

If you haven't voted please do so now. I am going to close the poll this evening.

Edit: I haven't gotten everyone's "I" so I am going to wait another day or so.

[Dax]

! A post!

For the MoN thread, we have Raptor's post incoming and Plague's and Moon's co-op post still in the works as well.

I guess we can scrap the time limit, and simply post who is up next (or who are up next) and leave it at that.

Who, between the two of you, is going to post first?

[Gadreille]

The trouble with the two day post limit is that if you are dependent on that player for the story to continue, it's useless. It's just a matter of not letting people say they are going to post next without actually doing it.

I put up a few names in the waitlist but I don't know if there is much a point to it anymore. Plus I can't imagine being able to keep up if we get any more active.

[Dax]

Eh, yah, that is why I scrapped it. Simply saying who is next should be just fine. Simple and efficent. That, and I think that each thread should be responsible to keep track of who is next to post (if they want, this is all optional). That is unless you want to do it, Ryona.

[Fluesopp]

Ok, so I've written some basic information about the Vangara, the inhabitants of Selton. Can I get some feedback before I continue? I feel that I have the basic idea now, and I don't think it will change anymore now.
Here
And no, it's not complete yet. Still a lot to do.

[Hello Danger]

Fluesopp, I like it. The blood magic is a cool and fresh concept.
