While I guess the argument can be because it's remnant, for stormer I find it weird that someone with anglo-saxon features is using a katana as a primary weapon. As for Salel, what is the rules for his lightsabers? I mean, how does the hardlight even work? Meh, maybe I'm too much a stickler for fluff. My character uses a partially chinese inspired weapon after all.

Well out be at Taiyou con, just in case any of you are coming out for the Persona concert.

Or if any of you are headed RTX I'll (probably) be there this year.

The argument is that it's Remnant for Stormer. Now come on, we need everyone's votes/abstentions before we can conclude!

Oh don't worry, Insano. I'll avoid making the mistakes of he-who-shall-not-be-named. And this is seeming like the quickest vote yet. Wowzers.

Oh thanks for the reminder!

And it's in Columbus, Ohio (C-Bus), weekend of January 30th. Really far out the way of basically everyone here. Mostly joking on it.

I'd actually like to bring up the fact that Stormer's sword is explicitly named after "Raijin, Japanese god of thunder" (?????), because the etymology of the word Japanese implies the existence of such a country in Remnant. Other characters get a pass either by not mentioning the country or having an excuse—Ayers offhandedly mentions that Hrunting and Naegling are named after his grandparents, for instance. Murasama is also a misspelling that is (presumably) from the very real Brazilian / Japanese cultural exchange and development that was brought to the fore with Jetstream Sam in Metal Gear Rising.

@Stormer: Well, we've only got these votes:

  • Stormer: 4
  • Hourai: 2
  • stonedog: 1
  • Abstentions: 2

That's only nine of the two dozen total players who have given their word on this vote.

Recorded.

  • Stormer: 4
  • Hourai: 3
  • stonedog: 1
  • Abstentions: 2

That's 10 out of 24. Going to be gone in 5 minutes or so, so someone else is going to have to keep track of this for everyone else.

No I am not abstaining. I'm fact checking.

In commemoration of ten months...

Welcome to Beacon: The Players

  • The Originals (Joined before the RP started.)
    • Grim: The GM. Plays Alexia. Bit of a sadist. Just a bit. Massive shipper.
    • Solus: Plays Remus. This guy started all the shipping when he asked if Remus could date Chelsea. Respect him.
    • Troy: Plays Jack. The man likes his grimdark. The original Butt-Monkey. Thanks for that, dude.
    • GOA: Plays Rufus. Wrote a shitton of worldbuilding. We actually had to tell him to slow down.
    • Taco: Plays Ayers. Commander Sarcasm. The most veteran troper here.
    • Rom: Co-GM. Plays Ieria. Master of smut. I remember when he was polite. That asshole.
  • B1 Latecomers (Joined after the RP started but before Initiation)
    • Aqua: Plays Lucas. The original Smurfette. Inspired a meme. Thanks for being a sport.
    • Guyshane: Plays Medus. Bastard destroyed my plans for the Moonfall arc by saving Alice. ...I thank you.
    • Azure: Plays Belle. Was in and out a lot. We were actually worried about you, man.
    • Insano: Co-GM. Plays Pius. His passion for this game is unmatched. The method to my madness. I still want to pay you for that burger.
  • B1 Replacements (Joined as replacements for leaving players)
    • Sven: Plays Yun. Had a somewhat awkward join time, since the RP was beginning to die. Master of the acronym.
    • Imca: Plays Imuka. Girl Number Two. I remember her asking lots of questions, so I had to asspull a lot.
  • B2 Originals
    • Amp: Co-GM. Plays Charisse. Dude literally joined TV tropes for this RP. Color me impressed.
  • Lior: Plays Alfred. Had the guts to play that one asshole. Thanks for starting Lexi's character dev, man.
  • Opnerf: Plays Ai. Asked as many questions as Imca, and basically did all the work on the B2 trope page.
    • Eachiunn: Plays Glen. Literally knew jack about RWBY before the RP. Plays the manliest dudes.
    • Saturn: Plays Sophie. Singlehandedly raised the Rzp rating from T to M. We all salute you.
  • Ignis: Plays Ghatz. Was basically that guy who played that useless party member. You amused us all.
  • BU Originals
    • Maxy: Plays Naima. Literally one of the two BU Originals who lasted.
    • Woody: Plays Lori. Aqua's twin. She asks for help a lot. I half-made Lori's character sheet.
  • BU Replacements:
    • Ferg: Plays Hope. The guy who gets screwed by timezones a lot. Fit in in record time.
    • Rhyme: Plays Silvia. The vote to get her in was a big clusterfark. Thanls for wating so long.
    • Blood: Plays Cyanea. Our newest member. Hope you enjoy your stay.

.....and because I forgot him and I can't edit this shit, have a special mention.

  • B2 Original
    • D 4 C: Plays Noa. Hunted Alexia relentlessly until we interacted. Made sharks Moe.

And here's to another 10 months of prosperity for this RP! You all have crafted an experience unlike any other, and you should be very proud of yourselves. Hopefully if I win, I'll be able to help you all make it even better.
