^^There's a tag called "rating:safe". Apply to your searches and bam, significantly less Rule34.

Also, Safebooru is back up. I couldn't find anything there, though. I bet there's more on Dan.

Safe doesn't have as much stuff as Dan.

If you get a Dan account, there's an option in your profile that lets you block certain tags. Just put in "rating:questionable" and "rating:explicit" on separate lines, and BAM. No moar pr0nz.

Hmmm...quiet moments when there's not a lot of talking or fighting are always good times to introduce a new character. That gives us the chance to ask him/her questions and get some backstory without being distracted.

Right, I'll be going to bed, now. It's 3 AM...thank the gods for Spring Break, that's all I can say.

I've been a fairly regular player, mostly as myself (with various powers I'd acquired through the course of the thread). Will have to get back into it eventually, though I fear that I'll neglect the thread since I don't go into Role Playing nearly as often as I went into Forum Games.

Unless people are opposed to Ozzy coming back. I don't think I'm too much of a game breaker even with various acquired powers. (Hell aside from throwing a PSI lightning attack around if someone's bothering me enough to make it worthwhile, astrally projecting into my own head a couple of times, and attempting to use the powers Bartimaeus gave me to go home, I don't really do much impressive aside from be immortal.)

Concerning the new characters' names:

"Elanor" is Elven (I forget whether it's Sindarin on Quenya or what) for "sun star". "Akane" is Japanese for "Deep red".

Not jumping back in yet. Thanks for looking on Danbooru, though. Would've thought somebody would have drawn what I've been looking for by now. Oh well. I still have a backup image. Not an Eggman outfit, but it'll do for now.

I guess I have to explain my characters if I am in. I will aslo explain my Alternate Character Interpretation.

Kamen Rider Double is composed of two people, Shotaro and Philip. Normally, they have access to 9 other forms, but since I fear that would mean changing my avatar tons of times, I rather say they forgot them. Or hell, have them arrive to this world after the Cockroach Dopant stole the other Gaia Memories.

Shotaro is a detective who is deems himself "Half-Boiled". He is the person the characters see as Double.

Philip is pretty much Shotaro's Watson. He does not appear physically, and the only hint that he is amung the characters is the fact that when he speaks, Double's right eye blinks. He also has a libary in his mind. No really, a libary. Bookshelves fly at him like in the Matrix. So that explains what was going on in my latest post.

Basically if you read a bit of the Tropes page for Double or have seen a few clips, this is pretty much what you will expect for the duo.

I actually found two. One is not suitable for an avatar, and the other is Maria from Castlevania Judgment.

Hmm. Admittedly, I didn't look very hard. Also, I'm not leaving. Since Maria showed up, I've been looking for an excuse to get these two out of the picture so I can bring Akane back. >_>

Also, I now realize where that Aeon guy you were talking about is from. -_-;

Yes, Castlevania Judgment is like... well, it's somewhere in the Castlevania timeline, but pretty much had any unique character Castlevania could muster.

Well, duh... It's a 3D Castlevania game. Only reason Leon Belmont gets passing mentions is because of his canonical status as First Belmont.

Yeah.

Say, what about that new one that's coming out? Lords of Shadow, or what have you? Think it'll be any good?

Hard to say. It looks to be a God Of War ripoff, but that's probably how a 3D Castlevania should be. It's also a reboot, which is something the Castlevania series kind of needs at this point, since they had a game based on practically every point in time that Dracula could theoretically show up. It can't be any worse than Castlevania 64.

At the very least, I don't think it will affect the 2D installments beyond maybe a continuity reboot for them as well, which again is quite needed. It's not like many characters beyond Dracula's minions and Alucard make reoccurring appearances. I mean even in this game, you have the Castlevania plot. You are a Belmont. You have a whip. Dracula (or some analog to Dracula) is being a jerk. You got to go kill him.

Lords of Shadow takes place before Lament of Innocence. Dracula is supposedly in it. Lament of Innocence is the ORIGIN of Dracula. Kinda hard not to be a reboot if Dracula is going to show up in it. If it is in the timeline, the Belmont of the game... Gabriel Belmont would be Leon's father. It would explain the Combat Cross AKA "So Totally Not Vampire Killer," since Lament of Innocence is also the origin of it as well.

I'm quite interested in it, myself.

Hopefully it will prove to be a stronger offering than previous 3D Castlevania titles.
