Kobold King he/him Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Finally, it's finished! Not as good as I wanted it to be, but the creator decided I didn't really need the speech bubbles to look right in the last panel, so I had to switch to rectangles. But still, it's done! *faints* png.png ...I genuinely hadn't considered the double meaning of "Green" in this context. But now I simply can't stop laughing at it. Koschei's face at the end is priceless. 3

Koschei's face at the end is priceless. Fear me Reader, for I serve the only Epic whose Empire will not be destroyed because of pollution. As such he is the only one who may rule all of us into eternety. Just a thought that crossed my mind. How does Lightwards power react with aging and people that died from old age?

A few ill-timed switches between pony and accessory codes taught me something: Koschei does not look good in Lightwards' clothes, but Kochei's cape and armbands look disturbingly good on Lightwards. 2

That has a very simple reason Koschei wears stylish clothes, Lightwards on the other hand has his own style that looks stupid on anyone else, your guess why it doesn´t on him. 2

I've ended up doing that loads of times. Through this I've learned that Lightwards' style doesn't suit Funtimes at all, and Backtrack looks utterly ridiculous in MV's armbands. 2

Through this I've learned that Lightwards' style doesn't suit Funtimes at all, and Backtrack looks utterly ridiculous in MV's armbands. And, due to my failure to label my own accessory codes, I also got to see Koschei in Laurie's hunting vest and the Surgeon General's boots and sunglasses. 1
Mailliw73 he/him Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) That's right. I do need to introduce Glamour some how. What House would Max be in? (Congratulations. I remember when I became a Scadrian Waffle Cook... a glorious age for the Wafflesworn. ) Yes, you do. I'm leaning towards Gryffindor, but Slytherin also has a lot of his characteristics. The main reason I think he'd go to the Lions, and not the Snakes. Is because he isn't really very cunning. Sorry, but you left out the best part: When are we planning night to fall? The only things left, I think, are the meeting and then we can have the MEE attacks and night. Does anyone have any reason not to cut to the meeting now? One thing I realized when I made my last Altermind post was that they really didn't have a way to communicate. Giving them all movies was one of my smarter ideas, I think. It's simple, but allows for a lot more connectivity. I realized that they needed that when I realized that Altermind had no way to get Voidgaze back until the meeting. Edit: Beginning Sunday until the Sunday after, I will be on vacation. I will have access to my email and so I can keep up, but I'm not sure how often I'll be able to get on here. If necessary, I'll send Twi my posts and anything I need to communicate to you guys in regards to planning. Edited October 10, 2014 by Mailliw73
Mailliw73 he/him Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Double, post cause woah. If you guys had access to the doc that Joe and Kobold are using to plan something, you would have a ton more respect for and be way more impressed with Sam and what she's gone through. 2

mail-mi he/him Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 New Timeport and Mommy post. Timeport kind of has to see Upgrade in the new future, as Upgrade removes his limit on traveling to the past.

I try hard to give my characters Emotionally Scarring™ backstories. But yeah. As she herself would say, "Epics are homicidal slontzes. Every sparking one of them." I'll start posting her flashbacks really soon. And my next post, which should be posted sometime in the next hour or so, has a viewpoint from Sam's mother. New Timeport and Mommy post.

Off topic, but I immediately searched for "pet velociraptor" when you posted that. Through a tangled path of strange Google searches, I ultimately stumbled across this insanity. I have no idea what to think of it. In that case, I shall post some of Nathan's flashbacks to his job at a Fortuity-haunted casino alongside Remington's flashbacks to a Koschei-haunted The Dalles. (Actually, I don't think I'd do that. His backstory is pretty easy to infer, and adding more detail feels a bit superfluous.) Ummm….. Uh…. I think this sums up my face pretty well. 2

Still though, if you wanted to write up a flashback as a Question thread extra, I wouldn't complain. ) I had a similar reaction. So, um... what happens if Timeport travels to a point in time before Calamity's appearance? 2

The number-one anticipated character from the RP's history. He's still an epic. It's still post-Calamity in his timeline, just not everyone else's Makes sense.

Kobold King he/him Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Um...maybe? If he can, I'd like to keep him as far away from Upgrade as possible for most of the RP. Or else he could simply pop through history and assassinate Milton Towren, Thomas Cardinal, and whoever Funtimes was before they got their powers. (Just a small observation: my last Dalles post has eight upvotes. Eight! I mean... wow. I've written much better posts that scarcely got a solid two upvotes. I'm not quite sure what's so lovable about Backtrack being The Woobie. ) 1
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Wow Mail-mi, That was an Awesome Post. I'll have CorpseMaker greet him in an Hour or three. And Twi, you have access to the Doc, just like Mailliw.

(The church massacre scene only got 4, but I think that's just because it was so horrifying. Which….I'd have to agree.

While writing that scene, I had to take frequent bouncy-music-and-cookie breaks.) I've seen very little pattern in mine. I think my highest-ranking posts are the newest Backtrack POV and the post where Aldo tells the Tennessee Sibyl story. Posts from The Dalles are garnering more upvotes, however, so I suspect Voidus is on to something with his theory. Maybe after the CorpseMaker war we should do a time skip and start a new thread, just so new members will be more likely to read and upvote enjoy our posts. Samantha Trattner. Probably my favorite character to write, but also the one I seem to enjoy inflicting pain on the most. She really needs a happy ending. Though a happy ending may come at a price, with an unstable necromancer going to visit her mother... I liked the church massacre scene. It was dreadful, but in a good way. If that makes sense. 2
