Go To

This is a thread where, as the title implies, our avatars (from our galleries) are posting in an in-universe forum thread. You can drop in any time with pretty much any character you want, whether from existing works or your own OCs. Though most of it is done through forum posts, some "in-person" interactions between characters is also fine.

Even if this is a more casual RP, there are still some rules and general RP etiquette to keep in mind for everyone to have a good time and feel comfortable:

  • NO GODMODDING. Godmodding is when you decide what happens to another player's character, and is generally frowned upon. In particular, avoid injuring and especially killing someone else's character; fighting is ok but let the other player decide if the hit connects. If your plot idea requires something to happen to a different player's character, you'll want to privately discuss this with them and if they're ok with that. This includes in-universe moderation.
  • Be nice and respect other players' boundaries. Your character being mean or a jerk is one thing, but if someone gets uncomfortable about your behavior towards their characters, knock it off. Also do not force others into your story arcs; in general it would be a good idea to ask the other person first if they are interested, and plan it together if they are.
  • If you have anything to say, ask about, ect. that is not part of the RP, you can put it under a spoiler tag [[spoiler: like this]]
  • While almost any character is welcome, please avoid playing any real-life person who's mainly associated with controversies, drama and problematic behavior. We don't need that here.
  • Have fun!

    Original post 

Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

[up]x8 Wow, that's rude and condescending... Phos has definitely been working on the encyclopedia, because why else would they look up industrial crystallization methods in my homeworld's registry?

Also, I assume the poison in question is mercury, right? I'd have to dig around for uses for mercury, because off the top of my head I can only think of batteries, and I mainly use silicon crystal based battery buffers which are way more efficient. I'm sure I can come up with something, though.

[up]x5 Right, introductions. Hi, I'm Icarus (or Ica), and I'm a construction robot operator! Currently, I'm knee-deep in the Gem peoples' social conflicts, but I can still handle any job that's lighter than one solar mass, including Dyson Spheres. For free, no strings attached.

Sorry for responding so late to your question, but here's an image of my "default" probes:
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/probe_thingy_cropped.png
Ah. I have heard that something resembling that probe appears to have landed in the vicinity of the Apocalyptic Noir Tower on planet Dyznoir, in the Serenth galaxy of the Alfarnos universe. No doubt curious people will want to figure out what it is…
I have also heard that something similar, just in different colours, landed a little to the north of the village of Lunadome on Kwiin, moon of the planet Korrvis, also in the Serenth galaxy of Alfarnos. Not sure if it's related or not.

I don't think I've seen you guys before!
My true name is Charlie de Bruyn, but in the Alfarnos universe, I go by the name Cibryll Schiffer.

I’m Midnight, nice to meet you! I’ve already introduced myself and my people before, but I’m not supposed to expose our existence to humans.
I… huh, how many humans are there around here, anyway? (I mean actual humans, not races that look human but aren't.)

Not "alive" like you know it. Think like, erm...an advanced program...that can emote like a human! If that makes sense, at least...
