The Grail Games OOC IX

Indeed. =O


So what's up?

Playing Persona 4 and waiting for Under the Dome to start in a few minutes. :0

Oh yeah, I have to put up Vivienne's sheet too.

Hmm, well, enjoy yourself

Vivienne is up. :0

Her origin is lust?

Meira can't even successfully hit on someone with the origin of lust.


I'd make a joke about the most important three stats (A woman's three sizes) not being on there, but honestly I don't know how to translate the numbers to an image.

Lust in the sense of desire - for power, wealth, pleasure, etc. It's not strictly sexual in this case.

Are you saying Meira dun have power wealth and pleasure to offer?

Well, that aside, Meira's origin is reaping. She'd deny her for the lulz.

Lol.

Maybe that's why Maou has a natural dislike for her. :0

Well, time for bed. Night. :0

posted.

Thanks. :0

Anyways, I found a guy on AC who likes Fate/Stay Night & other VNs, and he's not part of the regular RP crew but he's shown to be able to at least write a post. He's pretty... well I don't know the word, but he's using a trap character in the RP.
:p

I always have to wonder about people who use Traps...

now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever tried to RP a trap...
(not that I really want to, but I kinda wonder how difficult it would be)

It really depends on the character. Are they played for laughs? Are they serious?

Eternal Poison had a rather feminine young man infiltrate a group as one of the priests who was supposed to join them - a female priest. The gender reveal comes later, but as it's a dark, serious game, the emphasis is far more on the deception aspect than the "you're a dude!" aspect.

Well with me and Jorg around, it's not like he'd be the weird one.

Spoiler:

There's his post, if you curious. The setting is old Japan where spirits possess people. His character is possessed by blah blah Orochi. Basically he can create life by sacrificing his own and some other stuff. Shouldn't be too confusing to not be able to understand what's generally going on in his post.

It's a little dry, but it's not bad.

is this a challenge to create a trap for next rp?

Well I considered making Pinkie a trap...

Want me to keep you updated with his posts?

Though I'm defnitely not going to bring him over unless he can join your RP. Or another one that's ongoing and doesn't one post every week...

No. A serious trap in the right context can make for a good character, but that's few and far between.

Well, it's a circular problem. We need more people to get new rps going, but we need new rps to attract more people.

I could definitely do it.

Except you kinda need more people before more RPs, considering the lack of time most of us have.

ugh...
I've got a ton of RP ideas...
I just don't have time to manage them.
(and I'm too selfish to just let someone else do it for me)

True, but it's hard to make people stay with nothing to do.

oddly enough, that's the kind of thing sparring groups are good for.
they give you a way to hold interest without requiring too much story creation, since every spar is its own instance.
but all the good universes for sparring are washed out (unless you make something up for yourself)

Hmm... You think that would work? I'm normally against it, but we do need a gimmick.

(makes guy who's ability is to reverse things he is in contact with, thus reversing his gender)

wait, this isnt a trap, this is a genderswap, nvm
