The Oharo Trilogy Episode 1 "The Great Escape" Chapter 2 "leaving the Village" - One space open

 Pages 1 2 3 4 5 NEXT
 

There will be three shortish episodes that will last about 30 pages, and many smaller chapters.


This is a fantasy RP set in the distant past. You will play as one of the members of a family of five who must survive after your village is taken over by evil sorcerers. Will you be able to solve the mystery of the fallen god and save your friends from a dark fate? For more information, check out the spoilers.

There are five places currently open, only one father and mother are allowed, the other positions are unlimited. Later further spaces from outside the family may become available. If more than enough players apply then submissions will go through an audition.

this is interesting. i may make a Character Sheet if i have time. we'll see how it go's

I only need four more players if you join.

I'm slightly interested in Co-GMing this. Is it alright if I do a little plugging for this?

Might be interested in this, since this is fantasy would I be able to play the family pet: a talking cat?

Hm...that actually might work, but that means that I have to work out a slightly different story because the sorcerers would probably ignore the cat when they find the family because they can't use it for the Nolm Warrior.



Please give constructed criticism if necessary.

They might want the cat for a different purpose since it would be a magical being, hence it's human-equivalent intelligence. Diversity of characters is always a plus, but if you want I'll make the character sheet first and then depending on how many other applicants there are you can decide.

I'll still have to make a new beginning puzzle for the cat. You could have the sheet, but I can't guarantee that the puzzle will be as easy as the others though...

This is hopeless >.<

Sheet incoming:

If I need to change anything just tell me :-)

For anyone who is confused, the die will be in the group chat. I hope that clears things up.

JoJo: You've been accepted and I'll make a character spoiler when there are more players (or maybe now).



Please pm me what I'm doing wrong!

Thanks, I hope this gets some more players soon, I'll be waiting... =D

I highly doubt that any more players will join ;(

Saying stuff like ^ isn't gonna help us. Incidently I liked the Fast Turtle tune you sent me!

Clovis the cat? thats awesome man, also that picture is adorable.

Ill make a sheet IDK but you know im awful unrealiable as of late, summer holidays are on now so ill be a bit better

YAY!! Thanks man.

Alright, I'll be working on a sheet soon, most likely a daughter or something.

Everything good? Also, you didn't really mention appearance in the sheet. Do we not need those?

You're accepted, and I purposely didn't include the appearance section because this is the "beta" earth. This is before people started mutating and looking different from one another. The only thing unique about these humans is the way their age makes them look.

Cool hope enough people join to get started and PM when it will.

how's this?

Name= jazzin
Age= 41
Position in the family= father
Skills= healing
Job= town doctor
Bio= jazzin studied medicine at a young age and dreamed of becoming a doctor. he's well respected and helping people just came naturally to him. he's good at his job and enjoys doing it. the only thing he loves more than his job is his family. jazzin came to Oharo at 7 after his village was burned to the ground by bandits. he was one of only a handful of survivors. once he got to Oharo a doctor took him in and healed his injuries. after his injuries healed he started working under the kind doctor who became his family. after The Sorcerer's started imprisoning people he tried to get everyone out of the village but failed.

hope this is better

if anything needs changes just let me know

Please fix your grammar mistakes, punctuation mistakes (part of grammar), add on to your bio, try to not to overdo the protectiveness. In forum RP's you can't abbreviate anything, and you should look over what you wrote to avoid errors.



Unfit for this RP, sorry. Look up the rp guidelines, maybe that will help.

Nice to see that there's sheets coming in, IDK make sure you let me know when this is starting :-P

If you still want to play I could give you some help for your sheet to make it more acceptable for the GM. PM if you're interested.

keelzbunny:

Nice sheet, I get the feeling that our characters will get on well together :-D

i don't know:

Yo IDK, I have a couple of questions I just thought of, what are formatting rules for this RP going to be? e.g. minimum length of posts, NPC and thought speech etc...

Thought speech is supposed to be italicized, actions can be written in first person with asterisks: *eats cat*, this will make it easier for me to understand how you solve the puzzles, and speech should have quotation marks.



Keelz you've got accepted. Congrats!!


Oh and in this RP, the normal age people die in is 120. This is the "beta" earth so not many illnesses have been created yet.

Any news on your sheet yet IDK?

Now, I'm not sure whether or not you wanted both a father and mother for this family, but I don't want to usurp Gypsy's spot, and am not really comfortable taking the mother position. I had in mind sort of an old crotchety uncle or great-uncle. If you do want to have a mother figure in the family, then I'm content to sit on the waiting list as a non-family member.

Gypsy isn't accepted, he/she isn't going to play on this RP any time soon so you might as well be the father, but you can be the uncle if you want because I like your sheet. Just add some more personality to him. Is he nice? Is he angered easily? Give more details abut how he acts.

Ok, I do like my idea for the uncle, so I think I'll stick with that.

As to his personality, he sometimes seems to live too much in the past. He prefers the "old ways" of doing things, and will act a bit miffed when people mention using "new-fangled" equipment like hoes or plows in their farming.

Despite his sometimes cantankerous attitude, he is truly kindhearted, and is a well-liked village fixture, particularly among the children. The older folks (young adults, middle-aged and such) will just shake their heads and smile at his tirades.

Another side affect of his living in the past is that he sometimes gets it in his head that he's younger and more able than he really is, often resulting in his injuring or nearly injuring himself doing something that, at his age, is rather stupid.

Yeah, probably for the best that Gypsy doesn't join, I hate to think of what the quality of his posts would be like when he doesn't even use capital letters for his character's name on his sheet which you're judging him by.

Nice character SoldieroFortune, in fact it's great so far every accepted character has been interesting and different from the norm. Can't wait for this to start!

Dang No ones posted for a while, how many more do we need.

Should only need 1 more to make 5, IDK was thinking on making a up a sheet but since he's the GM his character wouldn't be able to help ours with the puzzles so I think he scrapped the idea... suppose we might be able to start with only 4 if he'll allow it.

Ah well. In the meantime, I'm going to go do what we call a shameless plug in the Serial Killer forum game biz. If it works, then we can start!
