Most definitely, it is good for us to have that sort of thing there in place in the event that it is used. Though it does come up to the matter of still deciding which method that magic would be existing in the world.

But aside from just that I need some ideas for more races to toss in. I can make them up and that is more or less what we will be doing. But everyone reads different fantasy and has different ideas. Having some races in the other important thing that needs to be settle so I can lock down the remaining pieces.

Alien influence.

It could explain the magic's straight path through the planet, as well as the strong ripple effect. Let's not take the term "alien" as a sci-fi term; rather, let's consider it by definition... an influence that is foreign.

In this case, the alien could be anything from the expected beings from another planet (perhaps using this planet as a grounds for experimentation) to a series of gods or goddesses who have bestowed "great power" in the form of magicks upon the lands. The latter of the two obviously seems more fitting given the direction you're wishing to take the roleplay, but the source is always something that can be debated. Whether or not the source is ever even discovered by the inhabitants of the planet is something that doesn't need to be known right from the start (at least not in terms of the roleplay itself, though it would be nice to know what direction to push this in an out-of-context form).

Hell, the inhabitants don't EVER need to know where the power comes from, if you think about it. Sure, the curious ones could seek answers, but they don't necessarily have to find them if you don't feel like going that route.

What matters is that an otherworldly source produced this stream of magic flowing through the center of the planet, in from one point and out through an opposite point, be it another species or paranormal phenomenon or gods and goddesses.

My idea was just a suggestion anyway. It doesn't have to be ki/chi at all. It could be normal magic. Whatever that may be. And you'll see once I get my character idea down. Just watch Air Master and pay attention to the character Julietta for reference. =P My character will have that kind of personality.

First, you have to provide us with RP examples, which you have none of.
Or, if you get permission from us, you can join a recruitment RP, which we have none of right now.

So, erm...it's really up to Andromeda. But..I'm going to say... not yet.

Edit: This isn't a newbie RP club you know. This is an RP for the elites, yo. The good people. The usual suspects.

As Shadow said and I will repeat most likely, we need proof of your skill before letting you try a recruitment. If you do not have proof, i.e. an example for a RP you have participated in, then you will need to come back later when you do have an example. Until you have an example I cannot say what your skill is and if it is high enough for the club's recruitment.

I have lots of examples of my past work... That's why I have finally built up the courage to ask for membership... I was a very active roleplayer in 2006 and even had that RP that finished in the cleft of dimension...

So, uh... Can I join

As I told the previous person, if you have examples present them to us and I will decide from there. Pick what you believe to be your best work and we will let you know if you are good enough to begin the recruitment process. For the time being I will probably handle the recruitment individually, unless there is a RP availabe in time. The recruitment process will be just a two person RP for the sake of simplisity. More of it will be explained once you get to that point.

Well, I think I've found an appropiate post, of course it may not be my best... However I think it would be easier to review a piece of average day work:


Marlene continued to run from the burning building, she had seen many films and had realised that this evil Headquarters would probably blow up as well...

She heard a wall collapse from behind her, she must've been about half a mile away from the HQ but the adrenelin was making it easier to hear things further away. From all the films she had seen she figured out that she only had a short period left before the almighty explosion...

Up ahead there was a sign of life, the flickering of a camp fire, several tents, a blonde haired girl getting ready to try and cook a sausage on the campfire. The sheer blondeness of the hair and the clumsy aura surrounding her was enough to tell Marlene it was definitley Naomi who was attempting to utilise the camp fire as a cooking appliance...

Just as Marlene had predicted the explosion came, by this time she had noticed a woman, no a man, sitting about 10 metres away from the tents, but before she had time to ponder why he was sitting alone, the explosion took her off her feet.

The force of the explosion blew out the chances of Naomi cooking the sausage, as it blew out the fire on which she was about to attempt to make something to eat upon. This was unfortunate for the likes of Serparon and Ki who had been making use of the dim glow that the fire emitted however it was perfect for Marlene, if that fire had not gone out she would have flew right through it by the force of the explosion.

She passed centimetres over the hot logs which had been burning just a few seconds ago and crashed directly into one of the tents, hitting it with such force that it was surprising it did not tear...

Marlene made sure to speak a few words before losing conciusnous:

"Nice evening for fireworks..."

She passed out...

As an average, I am more curious to see what would be your best. There are a few spelling errors that I noticed off hand and some grammar. Typing it up in word would have caught the spelling errors. I am however, not one that likes reading simply one entry and making a judgment. I guess I should have been more clear, but when I was asking for an example I wanted a whole RP, one that holds your best work. It is obvious that people have their ups and their downs. I want to see how high and low those are, as well as I want to story development, character development, descriptions, etc. All which are lacking from a single post.

I am unable to tell if you can tell a good story from one post, create a convincing character, or go into detail about the table next to you. There is a lot that I am going to look at, much of that I will test myself as well. But I need to see more than just a post.

Also the RP, races as I mentions. If you have some ideas please drop them down and we can stir them around in the blender to see what it is that we come up with. The weekend is coming, so hopefully I can sort things out for it soon. Though I do have the tournament that I am gearing up for as well as an episode to write. >< I'm going to busy.

Average piece of work? We're not the average club, missy. We're the Elites of RP. The best, or what have you. Just not average.

Get a real RP link and post it here to be evaluated. =D

I suppose Humans of some sort would be a given, though I would not be opposed to something else altogether.

Since we're discussing the inclusion of dragons, we could just as easily have draconians or some other form of reptoid. I don't think we should be too complex as far as playable races go. The simpler, the better.

Shadow don't be condescending, I already told her what I needed. You were just repeating me unnecessarily. You should be nicer to the members, especially ones that are interested in joining.

Now, to the other matter. Yes, I did sort of put in the Humans and Dragons in the mix. Humans sort of seem to be a given, we can have completely different races without any humans, of course. I am easily make up some races well enough, though some other minds working on it as well would be useful.

But yes, they do not have to be really complex. I guess if you wanted to, you could just borrow some of the races I made for Poulus. *shrugs* There were a bunch in there. Either way, I'm still thinking up things. If you want I can lay down some races and see where we go.
