[R] RP Discussion <Breaking Point & KyoY8>

[KyoY8]

Rated R for Extreme Violence, Bloody stuff, Sexual Reference, Drug use, Alcohol use, and offensive language.

Hmmm. For the magic... Maybe it could be something like taboo, or considered improper by some people- so as certain people would judge those that use it.... Otherwise, I don't really have anything I can think of currently. Do you want me to fill out a character chart/form (<don't know what people call them on this site....). I have one saved to my computer.

Oh and about characters, do you want me to have more of a strong-female character or not?

So there'd be a faction of human society who think that magic is against god maybe? That's why people would be angry at magic users?

I call them character sheets, and yeah, I'll post mine up, I think it'll be two or three characters.

[Breaking Point]

Ok. First question. Is there anyway that I can set this so that it will send me a message when you respond to this? On my old rp site if someone responded to you it'd send you a letter saying someon replied/ added another comment to the roleplay. If you wanted it to stop sending you letters you could select for it not to.

I'll probably start out with one, but don't worry, I'll be adding more characters to my empire haha. I generally add them as I go- Oh, I forgot. I roleplay in first person. Will that bother you? I've noticed a lot of people roleplay in third person.

[KyoY8]

I have it set up so that once people reply to a thread it sends me an email.
Other than that it won't send a message into your notifications, or it does and I haven't figured that out yet lol
But if you go into
Notifications>Inbox
There should be My Subscriptions on the left hand side.
If you go into Subscriptions there it will list every thread you're subscribed to. (Generally if you post in a thread it will automatically subscribe... I think. Or you can add it to you're subscriptions by going to the thread and going to Thread tools)

I do RPs in third person, but you are free to go in first person if you don't mind me sticking to third person.
I can try to do First person though if you like?

[Breaking Point]

Oh thanks. And I was wondering what subscriptions were on here. It wasn't sending me mail for it so I'll fix that. haha.

You can do third person, it's fine. I just first rped with a person that did first person, so I started that way to. I feel I can express the character better. My old site was pretty must half first person and half third person. So I'm used to both (I just feel I rp in first person way better so....).

[KyoY8]

I feel more comfortable with Third person because I tend to use several characters and it's easier that way.
I've also had problems detaching myself from my character's emotions and Third person helps that.
But to each their own. Whatever feels most comfortable

So how should we rate our RP firstly?

[Breaking Point]

I'm not sure. PG-13 or M maybe? I don't get the firm boundary between the two to be honest and I wouldn't want to be banned.

My old website made a rule against romance completely and you were likely to get banned.... I always just pmed the rp with my friends because the romance ban thing was EXTREME like no holding hands or no one could even have a crush, anything. I broke it so many times, but finally decided that I should change websites since it was against rules (even as a private mail... and I never was caught). I just don't want to get banned from this website, because it seems that I can actually be more free on this website.

What ages do you want the characters to be?

[KyoY8]

Well in PG-13 I call that devoid of most fun things like Swearing, Extreme bloody violence, drug use, alcohol use, and stuff like that.

They are a bit more relaxed here, I've flitted on the boundaries of... intimate sexual stuff, but we put down a fade to black scene kinda thing.
I think they don't mind here as long as it's rated, and not, (for lack of a better word) pornographic lol.
I never got hassled by the mods for anything like that, but I've been hassled by the mods for not putting ratings on threads.
M would be good to cover most bases.

Biography:
Kyo grew up in a wealthy household. His mother was a lawyer, and his father was a surgeon.
Kyo spent roughly five years with his parents when he was at the age of ten. His father worked all hours of the clock, and his mother was exactly the same. He was raised by a Nanny, well she was more of a teacher than anything else. His parents searched for her and paid her high, mainly because his father had realised his son possessed a mind that learned fast. On his tenth birthday his parents sent him off to one of the most expensive, and also, best Magick Academies. It not only taught him the basics and advance levels of education, and also unlocks the Magick hiding deep within, if it was even there.
Kyo however had very little locked Magick inside him, no hidden talent for a specific section of Magick. This stemmed from the fact that his mind was too busy absorbing everything before him and learning. Even though he possessed little locked Magick, he did have some unique abilities. Kyo had a talent for Magick that stems from writing symbols and activating them [Also known as Tagging]. This and his ability to learn was honed into the job of Magical Detective. He was brought into crime scenes where there was an accusation of Magick at work. It was more heard of than anyone would think, and after a couple of years he earned a seventy five percent success rate.

Living Arrangements:
Kyo lives in a private dorm of the Magic University, but he is often not there due to work engagements.

Strengths:
Quick Learner, Intelligence and logic make him a good problem solver, Tagging (but that can be a weakness given that he doesn't use much Magick without Tags)


Weaknesses:
Alcohol, Cannot use weapons or fight, Insomnia, would do anything to survive.

[Breaking Point]

I'm going to have to go for 2-3 (possibly a little longer) hours.

[KyoY8]

I should be still online, I'll get an email anyway when you post to this thread.

[Breaking Point]

I'm back. Here is my first character.
And hrrmmm. I'm going to try doing that show/hide thing, but if I fail, you'll have to tell me. haha.

Name: Chantal Kandinkski
Hair: Soft black and thick. Ends at her waist. Straight and silky.
Eyes: A Carmalish brown, slightly big with a harsh and upfront look to them
Build: Thin, kind of like a board. Looks weak, but is actually strong.
Appearance: Has a scariness to her and a darkness that is shown in her aura. She has high cheekbones which she was made fun of in elementary school with the name “fox face.” Her smile which is actually sweet is generally acknowledged as creepy or devilish. She doesn’t find herself attractive (<which is a bit like a lot of women these days. :( . When she zones out or glances around blindly, People think she’s “staring into [their] souls”. She’s ¼ Russian, hence the last name.
Skin: Pale and adds an eeriness due to the contrast against her dark features.
Age: 26
Height: 5’8”

Magic: Can force people to forget what they’re thinking about during the moment. (I don’t think this has a name because I just made it up.) She doesn’t know how to do anything else really with no basics or knowledge of other magic otherwise. She has a strong desire to learn though.

Interests: Magic, painting, and playing darts
Personality: Sweet yet a smart elic. She would get along great with people- if she actually wanted to. She is quite the strong and independent type of woman and doesn’t think she’ll ever find someone though she doesn’t want to in the first place. She has a dark quietness that lurks over her, but that is her cover, and she’s really a bubbly friendly girl that hides her true self.
History: When she first learned of magic she developed an extreme interest. She lived in a place where a large majority of people looked at magic as “devil worshipping” or something of the sort. Her parents where strongly against the idea of magic; they were strongly against many things. She felt that she couldn’t allow them to know her true self, so she hid it, but she rebelled in her own way by dressing against their desires with a sort of goth or emo style. Her parents were displeased and went as extreme as moving across the country to here (wherever the here is. Haha). She’s still here now.
She moved out at 17 due to her parents’ strong disapproval of them finding out about her interest in magic ,and she still lives in the same tiny apartment in the poor section.

Relationships: None- unless you count the couple of one-nighters she had when she was a prostitute for less than a week.
Work: She works at an underground bar with illegal gambling and drugs. Games of darts and pool games cause a lot of drunk and rowdy bar fights. She works from 5pm until 3am and always closes up, usually claiming a few bruises from forcing all the drugged and drunk people out of the bar since they don’t want to necessarily go.
Other: She desires to find someone who can train her to use other types of magic and/or can improve her skill to be something more.
