Hey everybody, im sorry I haven't posted in awhile but I have some negitive news. I am going to my dad's for the rest of July against my will and I might not be able to post but a couple of time's a week. But I will post, and i'll get all my roleplay bussiness done as fast as I can because I don't get significant Internet access their.

Also I must say that I will be gone to the mountians for a few days so don't exspect a post soon. I am so sorry that it has to be this way but I promise you that I will remain as active as I can. Especially because I made a commitment to this club, the roleplay and everybody in it.^^

I'll talk to you all soon^^
~*Lady Rika*~

Also im sorry I haven't posted in the roleplay, i've been stressed with my leaving and also being that I I have writers block I haven't been able to post anywhere else either. But do espect one soon though, as soon as return.

I'm glad to know that you are alright and still around, even in a deminished state. As I said before you will be able to join in when ever you are able to. So it will not be a problem if you are a little while in your getting a post up. I don't know how fast the RP will move along. But I do not think you will be really left behind.

See you when ever you can.

And well, I posted a little while back. So I am not sure what is holding up the others. Not that you should have been held up unless you posted last. I am hoping to see a post by Merlin this weekend. Though I do not know about Zell or Dragonheart. Please post soon, so that the RP does not stall too much.

I'm trying to write on my lunch break at work.. haha. Its kinda funny really... I actually have a lot of free time at work but I can't use it to be writing. I'm using it to make it look like I'm working. My programming skill is quite a bit more advanced than they think, but I don't want to be an ass and tell them the shit is too damn ez. I get the programming part done in 30 minutes and spend the rest of the day doing CSS layouts and shit to make it look pretty(which is not required). Of course that also freaked them out, b/c they weren't expecting their shitty, bland form to look shiny and pretty.

In any case, I have like 4 posts figured out in my head I just can't write them at the moment. Saturday {Can I have it?} Oh yes... then I can write all day.

As for the rest of you....

[Mistress Sheena]

Name: Furinji Kisara
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Nationality: Born and raised in Kithur; Currently in Kithur.
Magic Element: Lightning and Teleporting
Occupation: Teleportation Girl
Social Status: Middle Class
Weapons: Rod
Appearance: Wears a gown that falls to her ankles. The gown has a slit in the middle that shows off her toned, yet pale skin. The gown is light blue and has dark blue trimmings. Her hair is blue with white streaks running through various places. Her eyes are white, which makes it seem as if she has no pupils.
Background: Currently living in Kithur as a wanderer. Some people think of her teleporting ability as handy for transporting goods and products with ease. Others fear her power over the element of lightning. They all fear her when she gets a common cold. When she coughs, she sets off her lightning powers, and when she sneezes, she randomly teleports somewhere. One particular time is when she accidentally teleported behind two girls as they were doing something very important. When she was about to ask where she was, she sneezed again and teleported back to where she was before. She is also a ditzy girl who is smart but can't talk like she is, which is what makes her ditzy.


New Character. For interacting purposes with Andro. =P

[DragonHeart]

Originally I was waiting for Shadow to reply about whether he wanted to meet up with Kaida briefly but he never got back to me. I'm thinking over my next post instead, trying to squeeze in some time for it between work and getting things ready for my vacation.

Which is the other thing I wanted to mention, I will be going on vacation in Florida from about the 18th to the 28th. Internet access and time will both be limited so chances are I will not be posting at all during that time period.

So in light of that I was thinking that maybe I should refrain from getting too far involved with the RP for now and instead wait until I come back to be a full participant. That way I won't be holding anyone up if I get involved in a major plotline.

~DragonHeart~

[Andromeda]

Well I'm glad to see that you are going to be posting Dragonheart. I was getting a little worried since you seemed so interested in the RP. But I do not think that if you were gone for ten days that you will be thrown off of anything. There is not really strong plot being developed at the moment. And if you interact with someone, I doubt a lot will be planned before you get back. And it depends on who you work with. If you are with Merlin he has other characters for the exact purpose that you mentioned.

I look forward to see what you do with this new character of your Shadow. It should be very interesting. But it seems that you also have something to discuss with Dragonheart as well. Hopefully, we can get this RP moving on its feet again.

[Mistress Sheena]

Oh, I guess I completely forgot about getting back to DH on that. I thought I did. Oh well.

Yes, I'd like to interact with DH's character, and I'm in the capital of Lotuna. Which, I guess would be called Lotuna. Lol.

[Merlin]

I've been having a not-so-fun week. My wrist went out again and then I get a letter from my college telling me they don't feel like giving me financial aid anymore... which means I can't afford to go to college. I'm trying to appeal it, but if not... I have a huge problem.

In any case, I have posted in the RP.

Zell I left you a blatantly-obvious opening for your character to meet Sizuru... Take it or not, its up to you.

I still am trying to get the cobwebs out of my head when writing. Taking such a long hiatus definitely has impacted me. I am already working on my next post, since I already have it in my head. Might as well work on it while I have the time. XD

[Mistress Sheena]

Yeah, I changed a few things in my last post that Andro did, just to make things a bit more interesting.

And I have to say that I liked your post, and the conflict with your two characters. It was really interesting to see them going their separate ways after being together for so long. =P

[Merlin]

Yeah like I mentioned, I went from humor to tragedy.

My next post will reveal who the mysterious man is and his connection with Alastora. Of course, if you read my original char bios, you can pretty much figure out who he is by now... I just haven't blatently posted it in the story because it isn't the time. The char bios are for us writers, not the readers. At least, that is how I always thought of it. The characters should be revealed through the story, not a bio. Everything in your char bio should be in writing at some point or another... otherwise you wasted your time writing it.

As you can see, they each have very different behavioral patterns from one another. I did not want cookie-cutter characters that all end up acting the same, just with different outfits and hairdos. Their actions are clearly influenced by their upbringing, emotions, and thought-patterns. The only bad thing with that is when people want to interact with my characters... they are all so complicated that it can be confusing. If all else fails, ask me ahead of time so I can Quality Control it... LOL!

For reference sake, you might have noticed that my humor stems from shows like Hayate no Gotoku(smartass narration) and Lucky Star(heavily-sarcastic humor and/or situational humor). I hope it works.. O.o. I'm not used to writing anything dealing with humorous elements and come up with the stuff on the fly. I enjoy situational humor because the characters themselves don't realize its funny, they are simply acting normal.

Anywho, enough rambling. Off to watch some more anime.

[Andromeda]

Well I read the new posts, glad to see you posting Merlin. I hope that your wrist gets better. I didn't know that it was a problem for you. But I hope that you can get your finances in order, its a little strange that they would just stop. There's probably a reason, though knowing loans they probably do not have a very good one.

I'm not sure about Zell, you may not want to rely on him Merlin. He has only posted once and since has not said anything about posting again. I hope he does return soon, I would hate to lose someone from the RP so early. I imagine you have back up plans in the event that the wait becomes too long.

I am going to start working on my post tomorrow, I should have it up then as well. Though it depends if there is anything that gets in my way. You do leave me with some decision making to do Shadow. But those decisions were already going to happen either way regardless. It just means that I have company now. And I find it doubtful that Eris will use such powerful magic again for a while. Certainly not consciously that is for sure.

[Merlin]

Yes, I'd like to call such attacks 24hr skills or perhaps 72hr skills, taking a page from FFXI. Such attacks should pretty much drain all of your mana, reiatsu, ki, chakra, or whatever you'd like to call it.

The one thing I didn't really agree with in your post is the fact that she wiped out an entire town and took no damage. With that much energy in the atmosphere, there is bound to be backlash... especially in the case of lightning, in which the target discharges energy back at the source. Even if you are immune to electricity, a single lightning bolt can reach 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit, capable of fusing sand and dirt into glass. With that many lightning strikes within the same area, every person in that house would be dead, not to mention the other homes struck. The proximity to the heat source alone would have caused spontaneous combustion.

Of course, its just a story, but I tried to show that backlash in my own post. Sure, Alastora can create a ball of fire with the similar energy output of a miniature star, but that comes at a cost. It sent both Sizuru and Alastora to the brink of death. Actually, the only reason they survived is the fact that they were on a mountain and the combination of a thin atmosphere(less oxygen per square inch) and extreme cold dampened the effects. Even then, it was like laying on a grenade when it goes off... Both of them were severely injured. I don't care how resistant you are, its gonna hurt like hell.

Now for small-scale attacks, I can clearly see how it wouldn't hurt you... but blowing up towns? I find that a bit fishy that she is unscathed... even more that her family is standing.

Enough rambling from me... just something to think on.

EDIT: I'm not bitching. I like your posts Andro, I just don't find the last part very plausible under the laws of physics. Of course, its a fantasy-world, but even so, there's physics and laws of energy etc in there somewhere. I plan to see lots of crazy shit in this RP, just don't break every scientific law in the process. Bending them is more than fine though... haha

[Andromeda]

Well I could have killed of the family, though the results of the lightning did kill roughly half of the village. I could have killed them all just to introduce further pain and drama into her life, but I think she has enough angst already. But who knows, fate may not be so kind to them after all. Well shall see won't we.

Continuing from being side tracked they really should be dead with the proximity of the lightning. But also as you said its not reality, so we can bend things. Though it is also enough to say that there is more about Eris that has yet to be told. So some of the more different to believe moments will be explained later on.

While I won't scientifically find reasons for everything, I will probably try to put in some amount of plausibility. Though it is also to say that the lightning that I used was not normal typical mother nature lightning. So there is some give and pull there, it is still lightning and similiar in nature. There are just a few things that make it a little different.

I definitely hear what you saying. But what you said has definitely given me some ideas to play around with. So I will mess with them some in this post. There is a lot of supension of disbelief. I mean if you are going to hold fire in your hand, you aren't going to end up melt the skin away. The proximity will be enough to give you 3rd degree burns. Magic is magical. ^^;
