Muckraker Posts: 269 Joined: 16 Feb 2009 | I actually really like the idea. It does sound VERY interesting and quite original. I think this is an answer to one of your questions, but you wanted to know a tech. standpoint? Well, with so many brilliant minds on the island, you could have the island as one of those places where everything is so highly technologically advanced that it seems almost perfect to us now-a-days. A robot and such that can do just about anything. Whereas, the world itself fell into war and famine could return to a more natural state. Buidlings and cities could be obliterated and vegetation grown over everything. Humans could return to a more rugged way of life. A.k.a nomadic, hunt and forage, simply living to survive. That kind of stuff. I would be really interested in this RP. If it takes root that is. |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 641 Joined: 20 Mar 2009 | I think I would join this rp to. What all can we be? Since I feel like being a droid char that maybe goes out with the people. But if you don't like that then I shall be a normal person. So count me in to. |

I'm not sure if I'm going to put droid characters in, I like the idea of having a all human group as the emotions would be fluxuating and would add depth. However they aren't stupid and it's likely they would have something for their protection, but a robot of any sort dosen't allow any real character development, so I'm wouldnt be too sure how fun it would be for you being very fixed in who your character is being that it would be coming from a very bland society. |

I like the nomadic idea, consider it stolen. Also thanks for the kind words. |
Muckraker Posts: 269 Joined: 16 Feb 2009 |
No problem. =) And it makes sense and would be very interesting to do with such advanced people going back to watch nomadic peoples and they wouldn't really have much of an idea as to how those people got there. Either group that is. |
On the Record Posts: 7324 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 | I am also interested, I've always loved the concept of people milling about in a relatively uniform pattern, all dressed in muted dull colours, then all of a sudden one's face turns a joyous orange, clothes turn vivid, and they do something uncannily charming. |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 641 Joined: 20 Mar 2009 | Well can I have a few chars? I don't mind playing a few if its allowed. But If you don't mind being a droid then I might be on. But I can play as a human. Doesn't matter to me. |
Beat Writer Posts: 201 Joined: 8 Mar 2009 | Sounds interesting, I like the wole charecter development idea. Count me in in this happens. Its the oposite of Boishock :) |
On the Record Posts: 7324 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 | Might I be a robot who's AI "breaks"? I already have a relatively good idea for its [his] backstory. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2142 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 |
Um, If you write something up and pm me with it, I'll give it a yay or nay. |
On the Record Posts: 7324 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 |
I also recommend you change the name of the Thread to garner interest. At least 'Mystery Island'. |
Muckraker Posts: 269 Joined: 16 Feb 2009 | You really seem serious about this and the more the days pass, the more it developes. It sounds VERY interesting and am already thinking of character ideas. I feel almost girly with what I'm going to say next, but I can't really help it. "OH! The idea itself is so unique and interesting that I can't help but fell SUPER EXCITED FOR IT TO START!! *Girly scream* " Sorry 'bout that. =) |

I really wanna join the RP but I got a few questions if you don't mind answering them. |
On the Record Posts: 7324 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 |
It's in order to ask the questions because there's no sense in asking permission to do so in a public forum. |
Master Archivist Posts: 9110 Joined: 10 Mar 2009 | Can someone just be a non cloned human?? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2142 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 |
Yeah, cloning is basically a privilege, the majority won't be. Anyway post a character sheet or ideas and i'll give it a yay or nay. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4229 Joined: 27 Apr 2008 | Sounds like a mix of Paranoia and...something. |

Beat Writer Posts: 206 Joined: 26 Jun 2008 | What is the conflict in this story? It seems like there could be some really interesting meetings between the citizens of the world and Voluspa, but without a conflict, I fear it could turn into a lot of talking, and meandering. Also, is there a way to keep track of character development? i.e. points where you build up enough to earn a first cloning etc. I would be interested to see what this RP turns into, and if there is a final goal in mind, one that the characters may not know of right away (as is the case in most RPs). I'll see about posting up a character and joining in. |
Muckraker Posts: 269 Joined: 16 Feb 2009 | I was just wondering if I can have a character that's not supposed to join the mission to "the outside" but somehow snuck in anyway and managed to get outside and join them. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2142 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 |
There is but essentially, you and your party are gonna be from inside the city then all of a sudden your booted out with the idea of go explore. Whether you hit a talkative area depends where you go. It is gonna be luck though because the current idea is, you see the map in the stuff I might use area. That will have one for me and one for everyone elso type thing. That way people will have the freedom to know where to go whereever, and if they find one area boring/too dangerous they can just continue on. More details later though. Edit:Also If you want to turn you character into a mean s.o.b you can have conflict for no reason. |
Master Archivist Posts: 9110 Joined: 10 Mar 2009 | I posted my character. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2142 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 | "The nitty gritty, the machines would recieve a donor sample from two indivuals, then the resulting offspring was grown in a test tube then a pod." Sorry I am going to clarify this. Much like how clones are raised until age 21, to make sure for optimum developement, children are raised in said pods. Yeah I really meant to include that, but I tend to skip things over. Also social interactions is the thing i'm going to add, but essentially breakfast conversation with people came down to. "project x bravo is going swimingly, how about your project." Sorry I really need to finalize the whole, "the way society works" bit so peoples characters can fit nicely but I keep having bits and pieces to do.
Sorry I didn't respond sooner. |

Go for it, just try and add a reason. Just try and keep it in context as I'm gonna add about two more things into the way society works, so bare that in mind. |
Muckraker Posts: 269 Joined: 16 Feb 2009 |
Alright. I'll put up my basic character information first and then go an continue to add to it as you add to the society and the island. Name: Rayai Colton Description: She is considerably shorter than many people. Standing at 4'9". She has long dark brown hair and mousy features. As do many people in her world, she has a deep yearning to learn and to understand. The ambition she has to learn will sometimes go against her better judgement. (Let me know if something needs to be changed. This is just the basics of her and I will add on to it. If I can let her some how sneak into the mission to the outside part of the world, I will do it in a way that should follow the ways of the people, but still suit her personality.) |
Master Archivist Posts: 9110 Joined: 10 Mar 2009 | Wait is my character sheet okay? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2142 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 |
You need to change the school bit,(there are no schools) apart from that the colour idea is very nice and you can't be with Anarchemitis as I am being a bit of of a robophobe at the moment and I don't like Anarchemitis's character(but I still think your idea was awesome Anarchemitis it just dosen't fit with what I was going for.) |
Master Archivist Posts: 9110 Joined: 10 Mar 2009 |
I fixed it. |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 641 Joined: 20 Mar 2009 | So, when we going to start?(just wondering). Don't like after we get everything settle or after a few more people join in. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2142 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 |
This coming sunday, then we gather people. So It should be started at somepoint next week. |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 641 Joined: 20 Mar 2009 | cool, can't wait. |

Muckraker Posts: 269 Joined: 16 Feb 2009 | Name: Rayai Colton Age: 19 Profession: Botanist Specialty: Rayai's specialty is in plants with a purpose. She knows a little bit about trees and flowers, but the plants that serve as food and what used to be used as medicines is her forte. Bio: Rayai is considerably short and light. Being only 4'9 and barely weighing 100 lbs. She is very energetic and has a strong desire to learn. She has a love of plants beyond anything else. She is so passionate about learning that sometimes it can impair he judgment. One night, she was studying in a greenhouse for twenty hours and didn't go home until she dragged away and forced to stay at home. Even though she spends a lot of time engulfed in studies and work, she still is quite social. She is easy going and will listen if someone needs to talk or wants to discuss their own work. She will listen and comment on another person's work whether or not she knows a vast amount of their field. Rayai hasn't found anything yet that has been worth a clone. She understands cloning in plants, but she has a lack of knowledge on cloning of humans and animals herself, that she is not sure whether she would want to be cloned herself. Tests: Strength: 2 (Let me know if something's gotta be changed. I have a feeling that something does.) |
