Well, someone's posted an rping post on Aranor besides me so... here's the way I want to run the storyline:
Chapters: Each chapter has its own name, beginning, middle and end, and is owned by a particular RPer; however they have the same characters (each chapter can add/remove characters as seen fit) follow chronological order: each one comes right after the last. The chapter titles should have some relevance to the plot of the chapter. I get the odd-numbered chapters because I came up with Aranor, everyone else gets the even numbered ones and takes a rotation of turns based on who joined the RP first. For example, Ninkira gets the first even-numbered chapter (chapter 2) because she joined the RP first. However, let's say that Ninkira doesn't want to do the 2nd chapter or doesn't want to, then the next person gets it. If nobody wants an even-numbered one, then I have to do it whether I like it or not. I can also decide to pass on an odd-numbered chapter, then it's treated like an even-numbered one, and I can end up having to do it anyway.

yay, the RP's going...sorta. Well, we've got two people(me and Ninkira) and one person who I think's going to join (Yurikai Motou), so I'm considering Aranor at least a semi-success.

That's a pretty good system you got going there. The only way we can get more people to join your RP, is to get them to join the guild. *Cough* Recruitment Thread *Cough*

I've read it a few times, but I can't figure a character off of stuff. I dislike being completely human, and being half human is never fun. (Weaknesses of two races is never a good thing.) Though I guess I can think something up for it. I'll be in the roleplay in maybe a few days or hours. xd depends on my roleplaying mood.

By the way, do you accept Zoanthropes? It's from Bloody roar but, I loved the game. (Just did a tourney and i'm inspired to make one.) They'd be just like a lycanthrope except they can change at will no matter sun/moon condition as long as they have the energy that comes from battle.

Well, actually... the Neshoba are extremely close to that, except the sun time is limited and the full moon forces it.
Uh, where did you get the idea you have to be half-human? You can be purely elf or dwarf or merperson or orc or other demi-human if you want to.
The thing is, none of the demi-humans are really 'half-human': each is its own species in my mind. For instance, I consider Neshoba not as half-human-half-wolves, but rather as wolves who have adapted a humanoid form and intelligence.
By the way...I have no idea what bloody roar is...

Very fun fighting game that will never have a tournament because of all the characters are very unbalanced if your good with them. For instance, my character is so fluid that all her attacks can knock out the other person if they get hit on the starting move.

But, for the demi humans, I was thinking more of a... thing that has nothing to do with the human race. So, would that be acceptable?

uh, it kind of depends on the nature of the 'thing'... I suppose you could PM me a description of it if you don't want to post a description here, and I could see if it could exist on Aranor.

-tries to figure that out- So what you're saying is, that the second chapter, since I was the first to join after you, will be devoted to the revealing of my character's background, or at least revealing a bit of my character?

Well, not exactly... basically, the idea is that you make up what chapter two is about, and well it could be that if you want it to be.

Oh, okay. I get it then. Natruly, we would discuss it with you over this board or PM, am I right?

Also, since it's chapter 1, I guess I should just take your lead then? xd

Well, chapter 1 is really almost over: once the characters know who each other are and it's sorta established they're working together we'll move to chapter 2. It's fine if you PM me what it's to be about, title and such;I'll tell you if its out of bounds, but it probably won't be because the bounds are rather far out.

Now we just need more people... what happened to the one who said she'd join...

I'm going to join. Reading up on what's happened so far and trying to decide on a character.
PostPosted: Sat May 13, 2006 12:39 pm


User Name: SilntAngl5

Storyline: Aranor RP

Name: Eledhwen Siannodel, daughter of Allandor

Alias: Name translation: "Elven Light"

Gender: Female

Age: Over 3,000 years old

Hair Color/Style: Long, blond, wavy

Eye Color: Brown as the rich earth

Height/Weight: 5'7"/123 lbs.

Magic Alignment: Earth

Attire:Eledhwen's attire ranges from the leather and cloth armor that the March-warden wear (see name-linked picture), to simplistically beautiful robes of her Ambassadorship and rank.

Weaponry: Dual Fighting Knives and a matching Elven Long Bow

Occupation/Rank: Daughter of Allandor, Head of the High Elven March-warden; also an Ambassador to Ardania.

Distinguishing Marks: Elvish tatoo on the back of her left hand and wrist marking her as her people's Ambassador to Ardania.

Personality: Eledhwen has always had a sense of authority that comes with her position. She has always been seen as cool, calm and sometimes haughty as most elves are. Her haughtiness comes from the nobleness that rolls off of her presence. She is quick, quiet and sure of herself. With the past events, betrayal of an ally, and disappearance of her love, Eledhwen's demeanor has become much more angered and exacting. Much of her patience and tolerance was lost the day she lost her heart in Ardania.

History: Eledhwen's father was a distinguished mage and Head of the March-warden of the Celebtaurea (Silverwood), thus birthing Eledhwen into a position of high rank. Joining her father on many quests to seek information of the outside world, she soon established herself as an Ambassador to foreign places... which meant every place non-elvish. Even during the times of unrest in Ardania, she was present to represent her people... but no one could predict that civil war would erupt.

To escape the genocides, Eledhwen, her daughter Elemmiire, and her four escorts fled back to Rithara in the North. On their way back, they were attacked. Eledhwen and her daughter fled alone along twisting paths that led across the border into their country. What befell of the four elves who stayed behind to defend her is unknown. Death was assumed.

Unfortunately for Eledhwen... one of those left behind was her husband.

Unfortunately for Eledhwen, news reached her that King Otagaz had arranged for this to be a doomed mission from the start. Whether or not this news held truth was lost to the Elven Light. Perhaps it was all a ruse thrown together by their enemies as a catalyst to pull Rithara apart at the seams. She'd lost three companions and one life partner in what was supposed to be a peaceful mission. She had put, always put her life on the line... but the life of her love and her child... Why would King Otagaz sell them out? Why would he when he was currently leading armies to stop the humans from destroying what was left of a very diverse country. She had to know... she was marked, being hunted. She had to keep the last of her line safe. She had to find her husband. She had to find out the truth. She had to... For her people...
