It's 5 o'clock in the morning and I haven't slept a wink. >.>
Damn Minecraft.
The first step is admitting you have a problem. The fourth is profit.

The second step is opening youtuberepeat with 'Dig a Tunnel' as background music.

Some of those were really cool.
But others, like Charmander, Eevee, and Jolteon? I don't see where they're coming from with the appearances. Seems more that they were TRYING to freak people out, rather than really making the pokemon look realalistic.

Hm....not sure if it's good or bad that I want to craft a
Dragonsworn
style character around the idea of a
Dragon Slayer Mage

Seems like it could work, considering how little info we actually have about dragonslayers. We don't really know if they're supposed to be mage-like, paladin-like, warrior-like, or what...
Being that I've never seen it in action, I can't give exact advice on it. But something like "Go dragonform whenever I feel like" sounds like it would be kinda OP...

That's why I want to model after the Fairy Tail style Dragon Slayer; they can get dragonic attributes(such as scales and fangs) but they don't actually turn into dragons; they just draw power from a specific dragon type.
Some examples:
Fire vs Iron
,
Fire and Iron vs Lightning
,
Fire Iron and Wind/Air against the Black Dragon
.

And I'm assuming it would be changed a bit to work more with the WoW-style dragons (In terms of magical attributes and such)?
The only moment that actually screamed at me was in the third one when the giant thing went to curbstomp them from orbit and the kid was just like 'nope'... But that's pretty standard anime style... >.>

Of course; the Sworn would be a member of one of the Flights(not sure which one yet); as an example, if I went with a Black, the Sworn would have stylized versions of their power; magma and earth.
And Wendy is awesome heh; she can bring back people from the almost dead, and she's just so cute when she's kicking massive ass lol; but to be 'fair' to her, she is the Wind/Air Dragon Slayer, so attacking her from above, in her own natural Element is a very very bad idea...same as trying to set Natsu on Fire or using a weapon made of metal on Gajeel.

Looked like it was the fire guy who caught it. (Granted, it was crazy hard to keep track of what was happening at some points. lol)
But yeah. I would mostly just say to keep them balanced, and make sure they fit where you're putting them. *Shrug*

Ah, well Natsu(the red haired guy) isn't a 'kid', he's almost 20 heh; that's why I thought you meant the young girl.
And don't worry heh, as it would be a 'new' Sworn, the powers wouldn't be overly developed yet, and should be able to fit in wherever, since the Dragonsworn were set up for the original RPG.

It's still entirely possible to drop a character someplace they don't belong. (Like my reason for not putting Tandra in Dark Secrets, due to the fact I want it to be a more serious RP.)
Post by
Adamsm
At the moment, the only place this character wouldn't belong is the Moncraft; easily to change aspects of it to fit in with any of the current active RPs; heck, even Aftermath lol.
But think I may wait for the next new RP, which I actually have an idea for.
Post by
Atik
We actually have a few going as-is. But I still wouldn't mind some more... and I'm sure the sorting algorithm of RP survivabillity will do its job.
Post by
Adamsm
Aye I know; but as not everyone is in all of the RP's, I think we could have another.
As for the idea; set in the current time, after the Fall of Deathwing but before the return of Pandaria from the Mists. Still in the early planning stages at the moment.

Yeah... my best suggestion is to think of a plot.
We discussed it when making DS, and decided that the more successful RPs are either the interesting and gimmicky ones (The Makorrs) or ones with an interesting and driving plot. (The Killing Games)
The reason is that, without a proper plot, people have a tendency to go running around in circles with their characters. In the more gimmick-based RPs, this is alright; as it is where half the fun comes from as hilarity ensues. But for normal RPs, it gets rather boring to have no idea what you're actually trying to go ahead and do or anything; generally leading to a loss of interest as your character runs around not doing much.

So, in regards to that new RP, considering trying to resurrect a gladiator style one, or possibly a hunting for a specific item one...still pondering.
