Us Roleplayers by Asim on January 13th, 2011, 2:37 pm
Us roleplayers, we’re not all that different from the Suicide Pac(k)t (reference to albert borris’s book). Going into this online writing relationship, every one of us has problems, and most are seeking ways to handle or solve those problems. You might have grown up in a poor home where you never got to wear or eat name brands. Your parents may have loved you too much, overbearing and pressing in on your life from all sides, or never loved you at all; they could have been cold, money-calculating human beings with no sense of how to raise a child with love. You might have never had a romantic relationship – you might be too ugly, too fat, too lanky, or too young; you never felt like you belonged in the crowd you had to belong in. Someone once told me that every writer in this community has a story, a reason why they are there and not out shopping in a mall somewhere, and he is absolutely right. Loneliness or “the itch” are the two main factors I’ve recognized in my fellow roleplayers, and I know that both exist in myself at the same time. Loneliness develops naturally, from rejection or instability or both. The Itch is the craving that some creative peoples feel in the “gut” of their mind. It’ll push them to do something, change something, but until they really sit down with a pen, paintbrush, or a ball of clay, they can’t fully understand what it is they are supposed to do. The moment I wrote my first story, I knew that I’d found something to satisfy that itch, albeit temporarily. Other kids feel that roleplaying gives them a chance to live in a different world, maybe even a fantasy world like Pandora or Middle Earth, where the sky (i.e. administrative rules) is the limit, and life always has an off-switch. With the internet, if you are so frustrated that you need to get up and walk away, you can. It’s as simple as that. No one is going to follow you into your room when you don’t want to see them, or call you a million times just to yell at you when you finally do a... [ Continued ]

~[:]~ appearance ~[:]~ by ivy_-_ on July 5th, 2011, 1:36 am
Ivy appears as a tall, large busted woman with short, white hair. A bluish-purple leotard covers her torso and arms, with patches of the fabric removed to expose her cleavage and various parts of her abdomen. Similar leggings cover her legs midway below her thighs, connected to the leotard by garters at golden metal bands at their peak. A sleeve of the same material covers her right arm and hand, while armor covers her left arm, hand, and shoulder. A smaller pauldron covers her right shoulder, while high heels cover her feet, and a white gloves covers her right hand. The left shoulder pauldron incorporates the Tudor Rose, a traditional heraldic symbol of England, while the plates of the armor were designed to resemble the links of her sword.A mask covering the right side of her face and eye were also considered but abandoned after the initial character concept.While her design has been altered slightly as the series has progressed, the concept has remained consistent throughout the series, with the exception of the removal of the glove in later designs. Ivy stands 1.79 m (5 ft 10 in) tall, making her the series' tallest female character.Ivy's alternate character designs in the games are a contrast to her primary designs, with the secondary from Soulcalibur to Soulcalibur III consisting of countess attire of either blue or red pants, vest, and jacket, with white boots covering her feet and her hair combed back. In Soulcalibur II, a tertiary alternate design was added consisting of a red leotard and gloves with gold trimming, with red stockings on her legs; in addition, a fourth design resembling her appearance at the conclusion of Soulcalibur was considered, incorporating a cloak and the symbol of caduceus on the front of her leotard cupping her breasts, but was unused.In Soulcalibur III, a long, rose-themed dress with hat and veil was used as a tertiary alternate, one of several considered designs.[14] For Soulcalibur IV, a similarly themed black dress was used as her...

Short Story - Three Tricksters by Shikoba on July 26th, 2013, 10:33 am
So here is a short story that I am working on, and since I'm not sure how it is working out, I thought that I would post a bit of it, and hopefully get some feedback. I know that it isn't much, but this is all I've got at the moment. I will be adding more as I go along. At the bottom, I included a bit of information about the characters for those who are not familiar with them.
EDIT: I have replaced the first draft with an edited version. Thanks for reading this! ^^
Without further a-do, here it is...
He was perched on a branch, head tilted to one side as he watched the two below. They bickered incessantly, choosing another thing to argue once they had finished their previous argument, neither wishing to concede to the other's will. It was not an angry sort of arguing, but one of wits, for both were Tricksters in their own right, and both enjoyed challenges. Raven sat a few branches below him, oblivious to the observer above, while Coyote gazed upward in his man form, a cunning glint passing through his eye as he noticed. Assuming his coyote appearance, he boasted “Ha, nothing can surprise me. I am the great warrior who protects Man from the People-Devourers. I, who am entrusted this work by the Creator, cannot be surprised by anything.” To this, Raven, who did not want to be out-done replied, “Neither am I Brother! Nothing can surprise me, for I am far too clever.” At that moment, Whiskey Jack dropped down beside him. Raven, caught unaware, squawked in surprise, flapping his wings to avoid falling from his seat. Meanwhile below, Coyote yipped with laughter, his eyes dancing with amusement at Raven's plight. Made a fool, Raven's embarrassment turned to anger and rounding on Whiskey Jack he demanded, “Who are you to come h... |
