RP workshop weekly recap #2
January 22nd, 2010

Here is our second weekly recap of the role play workshops. There was more activity this week and we learned more about each of the characters and the most popular question this week was: A very large centipede runs across your character’s leg. What do they do?

To this there were several reactions but it seemed to boil down to the scared and the aggressive. Quite a few characters could just squish the unfortunate thing, poor majestic creature. This is the answer that sums that up the best;

“Adam would be surprised to see it at first then look at it closely. After he would pick it up from the back then put it outside. If Adam is in an rather bad mood he’d just kill it the first second he spotted it. “

Photos and pets were also popular this week and we got to learn that relatively few characters have pets in AD but this might just apply to those living in the PLANTs.  Its fairly hard to look after a dog when you have to be going off to fight after all.  If characters could save only one photo it would be of people, friend or family. For Brightblur its quite personal;

“Although it’s not quite considered keeping a photograph, Michiko does like to paint everything that happens in her life, be it at the exact timing or a bit after the situation occurs. If she had to keep one photograph, however, it would be one with her late fiance; depicting the deeper emotions she held for him back when he was alive. If not a photograph of him, one of a future lover she would probably feel just as connected to. “

There are two questions on weather this week, one on seasons and one on weather itself.

Most characters seem to prefer the warm sun than anything else and reflect that in Aaronwebster88’s answer when it came to seasons which is my answer of the week.

“As far as season’s go, Kadeem enjoys both Spring and Summer. During the Spring months, he finds it fascinating to watch the world (or PLANTs in this case) come back to life. Despite the wetness of Spring, Kadeem still manages to climb in the rain although he is not very partial to it. It provides him with a different sort of challenge. Although Springer can be wet sometimes, the fact remains that everything is getting warmer. And that leads into Summer. Warmer air and dryer days, make for great climbing and relaxing weather.”

That’s all for this week, I’ll see you next week when there will be even more questions and answers.

RP workshop weekly recap #1
January 9th, 2010

This is the first of our weekly recap of the role play workshops. For those of you that are new, welcome. For the rest of you, its a little something to go over each weekend just to think about how it feeds back into the RP. So without further ado on with the show.

You guys haven’t been posting too much this week here so I haven’t got too much to say, unfortunately.

It’s a little sad that Michiko has never climbed a tree, I hope someone can fix that in the RP. But she has a relatively girlish upbringing.

So, I put this this question to you readers:

What was your characters favourite toy at the age of eight? What, if any relevance does that have to the person they have become?

Just to give it some thought for now, it might crop up down the line.

The other one that cropped up was one of last week’s topic. Seems you guys want to show your guns off, and the fact that many of your characters know how to fight with their hands. That might be something to think up, remember you can have fist fights and gun fights in the General Role Play forum if you want to really show off.

I’m slightly dismayed at the number of people that use swords but this is the anime genre after all. Fantastic duel ending of battles any one?

That clears it up today.

My highlight of the week is:

“Well, Jack has a rapier sharp wit. Then there are his well practiced and used hands and feet as his primary arsenal. But besides that Conrad pretty much always carries a 15 shot 9mm pistol in a shoulder holster. It’s a fairly reliable tool with a weighted butt for melee and a chambering mechanism designed for use in a vacuum or underwater. Also he often carries a combat knife tied in a calf sheath. “

I get the feeling someone gave that a lot of thought.
