Guardian RP (OOC Thread + Sign up)

[Ellenriel]

Making a male character is just fine.
Like I said, its my own personal error, I can never seem to make a good male character.

 

[MadSova]

『Whoever said that males are no good? xD』

『Hmmmmm... I can't decide between 4 guardians I found >_<』

 

[zad38]

my characters a guy XD

 

[MadSova]

『You sent it through PM I guess? Don't remember seeing char's profile on the thread...』

 

[Ellenriel]

He did and its accepted.
First character (apart from my own) all set.

(Just a side note, those characters for hire are for people who don't have the time / don't want to make their own character. Pretty much just if someone wants to join but not go through the work of making a character.)

 

[MadSova]

『Yeah, it kinda says so in the first post... But since its quite easier getting in the role of a character you think up yourself I would recommend making your own rather than using one of made by others... Although I guess there are people who won't mind just getting an already made one...』

『Ohhhhh... Sector 8 xD』

 

[zad38]

yeah i can easily get into role playing games when i'm the one who picks what im all about XD

new mention [MENTION=66271]ryuta[/MENTION] ; dont worry this is my first time doing something like this too learn together i suppose!

 

[MadSova]

『 Still can't decide... both look good >_< Btw, I'm deciding whether to choose this or this as a guardian...』

 

[Ellenriel]

Don't worry about it so much Sova. Like I said, take your time on your character.
A good character is one where you put your heart and time in. Thats what I believe.
That aside, I like the first pick. I was planning on using that maybe, but decided against it.

 

[MadSova]

『Its not that I'm hurrying up... Its just that I really can't decide >_< I even prepared 2 story variants for both of them but still can't choose one xD And for some weird reason my hands just went and started rendering pic of my character too... So weird... I think I will most likely choose first though... That story is a bit more fun ^_^』

『Oh, btw, some guardians can talk too, yes?』

 

[Ellenriel]

Thats all up to you Sova. Just do whatever seems best for you~

They can talk, but only people who also have a guardian can understand what they say. Though all of them can talk through mind with the person they're in contract with.

 

[MadSova]

『Yep, I always do just what I want ^_^ Its just that sometimes I have trouble deciding what I want most. ;p Still, it usually doesn't take that much of time... And if I take too long I end up forgetting what I wanted in the first place >_<』

『Strange though... Why did I suddenly imagine Samye writing up another big doc about his character and Nazaka writing another book about his...』

 

[zad38]

they do that?.... wow they must really like roleplaying... anyway in my opinion the black rabbit seems to suit your style more, the second one to me feels more like... belongs to royalty or some sort of majestic feeling, the shirogane gives more of a im gonna murder you feel XD

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Hmm... bunny one is more his style and panther is more... regal... like zad said..~

Just got another idea for what character and guardian to use... x3 Mokou should know this one hehe~ But mehs >< Typing this is going to take all day for meh so i really should work...

 

[FinalPyre]

Wait a minute. Just flipping through some of the pages here, and I gathered that:

-Guardians cannot be hurt expect by other guardians (therefore guardians are invulnerable except through contact with other guardians, and further their body can only be modified by other guardians)
-Guardians can be repaired by humans/other non-guardians in shops.

I can't possibly see how these two facts can coexist XD (well without a serious handwave, of course ;P)

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Hmm guardians can be harmed by some magic though? Maybe it should just be said that guardians are a lot more durable than character even at their weakest ;p

Anyhow the last time she explained she said that guardians have a core which mundane weaponry cant reach? So you can damage the guardian but not defeat it~

 

[FinalPyre]

Then naturally by the same note, you should conclude that it must also be almost impossibly hard to repair guardians. :P

I guess maybe they aren't that hard to hurt, just to completely kill? Something like a magic soul or something that can regenerate eventually...

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Hmm they regenerate normally though? ;p I guess the repair process quickens the regeneration somehow?~ Well the guardians are created from magic anyhow xD And magic does have some effect on them... soo... i guess just really powerful magic?

 

[FinalPyre]

Yeah I just can't see any real way around this other than a hand-wave. Pay me no mind.

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Lol well the guardians seem to be some project that went out of control for the old world... perhaps meddling with some powers they werent supposed to like the energies of the planet~ May have been some widespread magics or a large group which created them...~ Maybe they had created the guardians to be nearly impossible to destroy by others in warfare but then others tried to make their own and somehow it all turned into a mess?~ Anyhow i doubt you would allow conventional weapons to harm something thats supposed to be a superweapon but you would still create something to repair it wouldnt you? xD

 

[FinalPyre]

It's just that in general it is far more difficult to repair something than damage it, and I if you are using magic with any kind of rules I would expect it to take at least a similar amount of magic to damage/heal. So the effort it takes to damage them and heal them should be quite comparable, in my mind. I guess this is not the case for the convenience of the game, which is why I said it just needs a handwave. :P

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Hmm... yes i suppose it does take more effort to repair than damage... but they have more time to do so? xD

 

[FinalPyre]

Hmm... yes i suppose it does take more effort to repair than damage... but they have more time to do so? xD

But that's the thing, if the guardians are already so powerful, shouldn't their own regen dwarf whatever a normal mage would attempt? Lol this is kind of interesting XD

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Perhaps that was the original method of controlling them? Make it so their regen wasnt that powerful so they needed people to help them after a battle? xD

 

[FinalPyre]

Hmm almost seems like the intelligence explosion could come into play, but maybe not if they made the guardians dumb. :P
