How about a SOLDIER RP OOC

[LocoColt04]

I know there's one in Remiem as a revival of the old clan, but that has nothing to do with us as a group. It's all those clan kids.

What if we set up a SOLDIER RP right here in our forum to give us something to do? We could all set up characters in this thread (if we decide to put one together out of boredom) and use it as an OOC thread as well.

If we do it, I'd suggest we (whoever wants to participate) should all create brand new characters which reflect our personalities while using FFT-esque classes, but have fun with it as well. It could be a serious RP or something a bit more light-hearted. Or both. Whatever, right? I just want something to do between schoolwork and RPB stuff. I need to keep my writing fresh, you know?

And right at the moment, SOLDIER's nothing more than a label for us right now anyway. We're not doing anything. Even though the public doesn't know that... and they don't have to, either.

I like that idea, I haven't RPed in a long time.

Divine Wolfwood: there was a problem
Divine Wolfwood: I checked it out while playing ToS
Divine Wolfwood: do you see the problem?
LocoColt04: Ah
LocoColt04: I see
LocoColt04: So later then
Divine Wolfwood: if we do anything
Divine Wolfwood: it has to be serious
Divine Wolfwood: meaning dark
LocoColt04: That's fine
LocoColt04: You put up your opinion when you get to it
Divine Wolfwood: like FFT
Divine Wolfwood: too lazy
Divine Wolfwood: I want 5 backstabbings in the first five sentences!
LocoColt04: Okay then
LocoColt04: That's what we'll do. Hell, I'll just paste this portion of the IM in a post for ya

Seems like Kevin's up for the idea as well.




edit:
This thread's primary purpose will be OOC now.

We need to figure things out, such WHY all of our characters get together, and whether or not we'll all get together in the start, or just make little groups, etc. Also, things such as a general storyline, and goals that should be reached during the course of the story.

Personally, my character is going to start out in a brawl anyhow, just because I want some good action to get things going. I won't even relate him to the story at all until my second post, when we might have more of an idea as to how/why we get together.


I'm setting up a separate thread for characters at the request of Rya.
I'd like for this, the character thread, and the RP to be stickied, please.



edit again:
Upon putting more thought into it, I have no intention of bringing my character into the story any time soon. He's flying solo for at least four posts; I've got plots for all of them in my head. It's grand.

I think I'll join too. My RPing is a bit rusty but, I really miss playing as my my namesake character. If I can put together some of the new ideas I've been having, I think it'd be really fun.

I'm going over to the RP character topic to post my info right now.

[LocoColt04]

The ideas in my head are seeming more and more like a mix of Kill Bill and James Bond. w00t for infiltration with a katana.

If anyone has ideas on how we can eventually begin to tie people together, by all means, share. We've got a mercenary and an assassin (same basic ideals), a vengeful elf, a monk-type guy, and a crazy ninja.

Sounds like we're all quite violent. It'd be too cliche (can't do the crazy accents on the laptop all the time) if all of our causes were conviently run behind the scenes by a common evil. That one's way overplayed. However, I still feel that all of our personal characters should end up on the same side in one way or another. After all, we're all SOLDIER members here, aren't we?

That's the tough part; figuring that one out.


And eventually, we'll need to add some shared characters, both allies and enemies, to that character thread. But that's only once we tie things together.

There is no such thing as SOLDIER at the moment in the role-play right? It is form way later in the story?
