@Thisismah Boomstick: Was Lugh really that Ax Crazy?

[up] No, but he seemed like a bit of a blood knight to me. It's not so much that he wanted everything to be dead, as much as he wanted to fight things.

[up][up]Oh granted that the typical ancient hero was a Blood Knight all the way, barring a smattering of Guile Heroes but a Blood Knight lives for combat not murder. Let me quote from just one post.

Leo?! What are you waiting for?! Kill them already!

Why should that stop you from killing them?!

JUST GO AND KILL THEM ALREADY!!

Even for a Blood Knight that's a bit over the top. Not trying to tell you what to do but you might at least think about toning it down a bit? There's a large range of behavior within the trope. I'm speaking from my own experience when I let Loki go Chaotic Stupid at the beginning.

[up]I'd have to agree. Lugh was harsh, but, in most interpretations of him that I've seen, he wasn't an Ax-Crazy murdererer out for blood. Boomstick, you might want to tone things down just a tad.

I apologize for being so quiet. I'm having a lot of trouble following this RP. Where are they now?

I can still hail the Horde even though the company has shamed us. Strength and Honor even if Blizzard has neither.

Kagescorpionkai's character, boomstick's character, and trickerston's character are talking to each other while trying to avoid the police. (And just an FYI guys, you should probably be in the clear by now.) Goodisgood and Tricksen are busy working out just what's happening between them; due to Goodisgood misunderstanding that Tricksen's character wasn't out of the area when he tried to fire an arrow at her, when she actually was, we had something of a boboo.tongue As of this morning, they should be figuring out just how they're going to work this out. Theo's character is busy having a nice chat with Mercucio. Sven, after having taken a leave of absence, has followed a once-human centaur to a large forest, which is growing by the hour. (Also, most people still can't see it.) And as for anyone I may have missed, I'm not sure what they're doing.tongue And lastly, we have two potential players, RPG Legend and Troyhand Hawk, but both of their Sign-ups have noticeable problems, which they both are working to correct.

If you're not sure just where to jump back in, I'm soon going to have the oncoming police car show up. Some characters chose to run away from the oncoming sirens, but anyone who's still there can have a nice chat with Detective Moran and Mr.Freeman, if they want. Or can I have some random creature show up that would lead you to the forest. Or you could check out the number that Mercucio gave everyone.

Does that help?

A bit. I think I'm just kinda confused in general right now. It's not you, it's me.

@kkhohoho: Since we're up on the rooftops would we see Mercutio's tower? Or is it something that's normally visible?

[up]Yes, you should be able to see it. And no, most people can't see it, though it works a bit differently than everything else. I'll explain it soon enough, but in any case, yes, you and the other PC's can see it.

@Boomstick: Sorry, but I don't think your character should be able to see the forest just yet. And it's not about whether he could see it at all; it's that it's 50 miles away from the city, which is full of buildings, constructs, and other things that might obstruct your view. (Such as a certain towering mountain of a building that might as well reach the heavens themselves.) Victor can only see it because he's both high in the sky, and has also been following the centaur long enough to get close enough to it.

To sum up: You'll have to edit your post, and take out the bit about seeing the forest. Sorry about that.

hey, is it okay if my character had just ran away? It would make sense if I tried to fit in now

@Boomstick Just change what Cernunnos saw from the forest to the tower.

I'm sorry, but I think I'll still drop out of this one. I apologize, but I can't follow this right now. *shrug*

[up]Hey, I understand. Well, somewhat. I just dropped out of an RP myself, though in that case, the RP had already been around for over 2 years, so it was nearly impossible to understand what the heck was going on. Don't know why I bothered with it in the first place.tongue (Then again, it was a comicbook RPG, and I'm quite the comics fan...) Now, I'd be willing to help you if you wanted me to, but if you think this is just too much for you, that's fine. And remember, if you ever decide to come back, don't worry; we'd be glad to have you again.smile

I'm a bit curious about the forest, and was wondering about a couple of things:

1. Does it have rivers and lakes for water-dwelling creatures such as Naiads and Kappas/Rocky areas for the Tengu and Harpies? Or is it just home for forest-dwelling creatures (dryads, Tanuki, Fae etc).? Going off that, will there be several mythical "biomes" scattered around New Olympus?

2. Is the gigantic tree a branch of Yggdrasil, or something else entirely?

[up]Sort of a mix of both. The forest does have rivers, lakes, rocky areas, etc., but over time, more and more areas will spring up for you guys to explore, which will include more specific areas. As that happens, some of the races currently residing in the forest will migrate, for lack of a better term, over to the areas better suited for them.

As for the giant tree, yes and no. We're not bringing the 9 Worlds into this, (or at least not for a loooooooooooooong time,) but it is still an 'aspect' of Yggdrasil. It has Yggdrasil's essence, but it's not the whole shebang. It's sort of 'based off of' Yggdrasil in a sense. Does that make sense?
