Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is the main saw thing:

(this isn't saw its death note) -

In fact: I just realized that ace torturing people for info, using cameras/ audio equipment, and hiring henchmen is similar to that of jigsaw without the traps. While I agree with C that this isn't a saw (or for that matter vampire) forum, I could see ace as a possible alternative to suit both needs. As for the vampire man, would you be a shinigami or reaper instead? That might be a bit better for this series. (It's just a suggestion)

As for the saw players, If you don't like the ace alternative, I understand that there probably aren't alot of saww forums that let you try to catch him. If you want, you can create your own thing in the forums. If that is the option you take, I suggest naming it Puzzled or something that implies SAW without actually saying it. It might also be wise to try to find a player who fits Jigsaws MO to play as your kira. Haruhihost is a great torturer. I would ask him if this is the path that you wish to take. Evan_or_L

why do we have SAW fans here again? just wondering because This is a death note guild.

Well when you think about it the series do have the same concept. It's told through the point of view of a killer who wants to change bad guys into good guys by killing people off as a message to the world. Neither of the killers show their faces, and the fall behind an identity because in reality they are puny people. The fact is, unlike death note, Saw doesn't have a detective who brings them to justice. These people fantasize about doing that and there are no guilds to do that. For example, I wanted a guild to come into that did only criminal profiling. There were none, but I found something close that met my requirements. they just want to do that and match their wits with others. I don't personally like it but hey, as long as it's deathnote related it's ok.

as for you SAW fans, please don't actually use jigsaw. Use a killer who is similar.

Here's the thing with having jigsaw like deaths, it doesn't use the death note in any way. It's just the regular kipnapping sick bloody deaths.

If you're gonna use this concept the death note has to be involved.And please no real names from the movie, I'm sure I can look up on Saw's movies and check out the names and send another post saying how the death note will be involved.

I've been following this, and here's my two cents:

Exnay on the vampires. Maybe you could be a rogue shinigami who uses the Death Note for his own ends like a human. Scary but not so cliched, and still Death Note.

Jigsaw...
Well.
I'm kind of at a loss as to how this even came to be a huge deal. This is Death Note, not SAW, and truthfully I've found it to be more of a detective thing (a rare and refreshing break from the usual) and less of a murderer RP. I think it would mess that up to have a Death Note owner who sets traps like Jigsaw. It would be unnaturally brutal, which even the anime and manga do not have. The series is about ingenuity and brainpower, not just imagination, and certainly not of the gory kind.
While the whole "A human writing the traps in the Death Note" thing is VALID, I just find the whole idea distasteful. I really don't want to read about brutal torture and killings.
Sorry. It just seems like it would be a total 180 from where the guild plot line is going at the moment...It seems more PG now, which as I said is a really nice break from the hardcore RPGs, and a SAW killer would just take it up to R in a single post. I don't know that I, for one, could handle it.

"Heres the thing,why traps when you can just write their name and kill them,also why make them go in traps when you an kill them in 40 seconds.Plus if you are to do it please follow these rules I'll post again.

1.No using the name Jigsaw or anything realted to his name

2.No Character names from the movie, hence the name Death note guild

3.Your traps can't be to violent, I'm thirteen and like some gore but it's just nonsense human torture

4.(This one is a big hit) No pig faced man,in the movie it's jigsaw kipnapping

(Were not faint hearted, we have a Death note guild with shinigamis, not pig faced mans revenge for his babys death.

(Still makes no sense)

We are talking about people who want to have a SAW based killer. Saw is a movie franchise in which a man kidnaps people that he considers them and tries to rehabilitate them by putting them in traps that, through self mutilation, you can escape. Now I can look at both sides of the line.

-general opinion-is a grotesque movie, with so much gore and violence that it hardly fits what we do here.

-pro Saw opinion-Our death note users are generally good guys with the exception of Haruhihost who usually uses a more direct approach. Still that leaves an unbalenced amount of good kiras and detectives to bad kiras.

-My opinion: Why not have a better killer? One who organizes their kill patterns and fits jigsaw in that he plays mind games and observes his victims.

For Hammy: Sadism is a characterstic of a serial killer in which they enjoy and get a thrill out of the pain of others. Another killer like that was Jesse Pomeroy http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sadism

For Amy Lee Fan: Some people can't handle that much violence. Also, do you take a spanish course at your school? It's just a guess.

I'll agree with most of that last statement except for the bit about plagarism. Keep in mind, death note, shinigami, and detectives with one letter nicknames aren't ours... sweatdrop

1st off I'd like to say, i love the Matt for the win, it's awsome.

2nd, I agree with those points. As we see we have alot of people who can't handle the gruesome nature of saw, nor is it the saw guild. What there is to decide now I believe (I'm pretty sure this is right, but I've been wrong before) how alike a killer can be to the killer they want to bring to justice. All killers are based off of something. Light was probably based aon a religious yahoo, and the Kira killer (In Real murder mystery subforum) is based loosely on jeffrey dahmer. I agree I don't like the idea of jigsaw being here but I do like the psychological killer. Technically we've already had a character here who kidnaps and tortures, just not in the same extent.
