• Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.

Project SSBC-The RP

Dwayna DragonFire

2014 Little Cup Champion
A) Still very interested, for obvious reasons.

B) I would only use Dwayna, but possibly all forms she has exemplified.

C) I would be on Team White, since that seems to be the knightly themed one. If nothing else, Dwayna defends her honour or has her knight Sir red defend it for her. I personally find the thread-hopping a bit too complicated and suggest only one thread despite the volume of players.
 
Well, the way I believe it was meant to go was that everyone is invited into the first, and hopefully short, pilot episode, which is on the battle field and the two warring factions show up to take hostages for brainwashing. Then the story splits as groups of RPers split up and go to different planetoids for different purposes (finding out what's going on, chasing after lost friends, finding more Charmisians to brainwash, getting lost, etc.). Each separate topic connected to the RP takes place on a different planetoid, and tells of each member's interstellar journey as they break off and rejoin other groups of RPers in the epic quest of a forum caught in a mysterious war between two unknown factions. There will also be a Summary Topic which would describe the events of the episodes and the fate participants as we go along, just to reduce the problem of thread hopping.

And now onto our ABCs

A) Of course I'm still interested, this still a perfect way to develop my character
B) I'm going to use Brendan the whole way, though I do plan to introduce a secondary character much later on. Whether this person shows up for only a short time or becomes another character of my control, I haven't quite decided yet.
C) He would be on Team Charms, though I am actually looking for ways to confuse the other Charms loyalists and make them think he's on one of the other factions. The mystery character, if he gets into the main conflict, would be on probably Team Black when he appears.

The idea that Brendan suggested was more along the line of what I was originally thinking things would be done; in that we would have different little topics for places that our characters can be and you RP them when they are there. Then if you travel some place else you jump to that thread. It still might be a bit confusing, but it can totally work.

And we could have a thread where we all post our character's current position.
 
I second that idea, Red ^^

A)Yes, I'm still deeply interested in this, as the only slightly-lasting RP that Shocari's been in was Love Demon *shudders*

B)Only Shocari~

C)I still totally want to be on the antagonistic side of thing :>
 
A) Of course.
B) Just one. Captain Freta of the Black Clamperl.
C) He's on the good side because it seems to be lacking in members.

Also, if this RP is going to have multiple threads I think we should get a temporary child board because of the massive scale of this RP.
 
A) Yes.
B) Blazikid.
C) Charms, Then brainwashed to white or black, preferably white as they'd seem to be more 'Gentle' in recruiting members, as I mentioned earlier.

White brainwashes me with my own grief after I take down my will-o-wisps.
 
I'm still a little mixed up on what each team means, but I'm still in.

A. Yes, I am in.
B. Secad and Fi
C. Whatever team is the antagonist

However, I along with the rest can see this getting very messy.

A. Yes.
B. Probs otterfishy Sem and Lysis
C. Team White >=o *pushes everyone else out of the way*

A. Indeed I am. I've just been a bit busy lately finishing a couple of other projects that need to be finished so I can has free time to do this :> Currently attempting to write the introductory post and designing some little tidbits as references. That reminds me; Since the opening is going to be a parody of the opening of Subspace Emissary, I need two Charmsians to volunteer to have a casual match in a Coliseum. Any takers?

B. I'll be RPing one character for now, but if I am to use another in the future (foreshadowing durrhurrr) I'll be switching scenarios so that I can focus on one at a time, giving other RPers a chance to do things.

C. I'll go where the plot takes me :> If everything is set in stone, where's the fun in RPing when you know what's going to happen already, amirite? Although at the beginning of this RP, I suppose I'll be team Charms.

Anyways, with regards to the split topics, it's not that different from the original concept where we RP in episodes (basically, a group of RPers post in this thread, when its over, we move to another thread with a different lineup) But I do like that it aloows for more RPers and thus, mor einterest in the series. I think we should enforce a rule that if you're RPing in one scenario, you can't be in the other so as not to hog the plotline.

As for inerctions and crossovers between both sides, that might be too confusing. Instead, I think both threads should have completely different plotlines with only slight to no repercussions to the events of the other. Basically, you can't interact with the other RP besides making slight references to the events happening on the other end of the spectrum.

Kind of like in SSE, where Mario pursuing Wario, Diddy Kong saving Donkey Kong and Lucas and Ness fighting Porky all happen around the same time, but do not really affect one another. Besides, need I remind you we're doing this RP without dialogue so that really detailed expositions aren't needed?

Edit:

lolnotes-1.png


Grunt concept art for both factions: http://www.pokecharms.com/forums/http:/ ... 428#p18428

also Dway being the Queen for the Chess faction and Red as her Knight just seems fitting. As is Sho being the Ace for the Card faction (because he's a joker fan *is shot)
 
A)Yes, I'm still all for the idea.
B)I'll be using just me (Toru The Geokinetic)
C)Being on Team Charms would be quite fun for me, but what I would find quite interesting is if I was converted halfway through the RP to one of the teams(and I'm not bothered which one, so be sure to drag me onto yours quickly :p), quite possibly.
 
(assuming people can still join - if not, it's all good, I'll be outta here :'D)

Wh-
Oh, silly me, I'm late! D:

Tangrow said:
I do think that it may be possible if it gets to be too much, we can get other Charmsians to come in and cameo as pleased. As an example, someone, let's say Toru, wishes to run off and warn Tun. Someone gets to her beforehand, and when Toru reaches her, she may react quickly and assault him, believing he is brainwashed. Once the conflict is over, Tun sees Toru off and then uses her Sprite Shop as, let's say, a meeting place as a location for later on. So, you know, not be totally involved but count as a secondary. This is provided the person, this one being Tun in example., agrees ♥

That sounds good~! Being a sort of cameo person would probably suit me best, what with all of the business of ... stuff :x
(also Spriteshopbase sounds awesome :'D)

So like, I probably wouldn't be as active as the other RPers, but if someone calls then I'd love to participate <33 (and be in team 'Charms~!)

... also~! ♥

A) Whyes o:
B) Probably Tunduli, in battleclothedform and, most probably, in fluffy purple form :>
C) Team Pokechaaarrrms :D I mean, if I were to use my sprite shop as a meeting place for the 'Charmsians, I guess I would be, huh~? ♥

So like rope me in if you like :>
 
I'm planning to write the first post this week, its main plot, and devising all possible routes that can come out of it. It isn't too different from my earlier post, so here's the breif summary once more.

Several Charmsians have gathered at the battle arena, dubbed as 'Wi-Fi Coliseum' to witness a casual match between [Blazikid] and [Taillon]. The match is cut short, however, when a group of strange men in suits appear from the shadows and beign attacking the two fighters. Friedns from the stands decide to join the fray in an attempt to rescue their friends. Suddenly, a second group arrives on the scene; riding in on a huge Reshiram-shaped airship (kudos to Brendan for the idea) delivering with it a slew of white soldiers resembling chess pieces. The Charmsians are quick to assume they are allies when two Charmsians ([Sem] and [Dwayna]) are seen on the ship. This isn't the case however, as the white soldiers do not discriminate the Charmsians from the black men in suits, and attack both parties. It becomes a messy three-way brawl between the Charmsians, the black men in suits and the white soldiers being led by [Dway] and [Sem]

and everything else unfolds from there. This'll be the first 'episode' in the RP, with several other scenarios to come, if it becomes that popular. So besides Blazi, Taillon, Dway and Sem, we can probably allow for three or four more RPers to act as the Charmsian Cavalry. Black Charmsians might also appear as cavalry for the black faction. I kind of want to promote Sho to the Joker rank, but if you think you're deserving of such a rank or any of the higher faction ranks, please say so here.

To summarize, we have four people already set as characters (Blazi, Taillon, Dway and Sem) four more to act as Charmsian cavalry and one or two to act as Black faction cavalry. Also, I approve of cameo characters, and they will not be added to the list of RPers in the episode since they won't have a permanent place in it.

If there are any comments/objections/queries regarding who has been picked to act as the leaders of the two factions, the number of RPers, and the possibility of introducing a second episode happening simultaneously please discuss them here. Nothing is set in stone, and I am still flexible to any last-minute changes.

edit: a note on the whole 'brainwashing' business. Think of it like Lelouch's Geass. Those brainwashed act normally, with their personalities and mannerisms still intact, but when it comes to issues regarding their loyalties, they do not seem to be aware of it, and carry out orders without question.
 
This actually sounds really epic. I mean, I can picture it so well, it should have its own show :V

I'm rather flattered by you wanting to promote me to Joker, but I'll gladly take any rank I can get if someone more deserving of it than me comes along~

I like your note of the brainwashing to be like Lelouch's Geass. It suddenly "clicked" in my mind about the brainwashing XDDDDDD

Shocari could possibly appear in the first episode for the black team, watching the events unfold and thinking of a plan or something, but idk :|
 

Sem

I totally like the idea of being King |D And Lysis would work well as a rook, my own personal rook >>
<<

And yeah, I have a fun image of me and Dwayna epically commanding units, so It'll be neat =)

I'm not sure on a second episode to go along with this RP, depends on how easy it'll be to keep everything in one RP, but perhaps it would allow things to run more smoothly to have a Black-centric topic and then a White-centric topic, and the Charmsians can choose which one to participate in. They can switch between topics but not be in actively posting in both at the same time.

Thoughts?

Eeee, I want to be in this :D Just, like, on the sidelines to watch Blazi and Taillon then join the fighting when the two Teams appear ♥ Though if anyone else wants to be in it, I won't object and can always back down to let others have the fun first.

I agree with Sem on the second episode thing, though aren't black and white going to clash at some point? That could get a little confusing... then again, everything about this can get confusing.
 
Im kinda saddened at the fact that I didn't follow this until now..

A) If this is still open i am totally interested
B) one Aero, whom I will be making a bio for shortly.
C) I would love to be part of the black side from the beginning

This sounds like an awesome idea, and I would really like to be part of the black side from the beginning. I really like the Black design concept. If this does amount to something, I'm liking the idea of separate threads for the black and white with Charmsians floating back and forth. Although I also was thinking to organize it a little more maybe have a board for both the black and white factions and having threads among those, because there are going to be groups amongst the factions... Just an idea. Cant wait to see how this all pans out...

The two threads thing might actually be a good idea later on, and having a single thread as the starting point. RX suggested this, and I agree with it.

I think Sho would make a good Joker, first and foremost. ^^

Secondly, I would be willing to take part in the raid as a soldier for the White team. And if not, I'll just make my first appearance upon their return. And just like Sem has his own personal unit, I'll be the personal unit for Dway. :3

Other than that, I'm loving everything RX. -^^-
 
I like the Idea, and I'll be happy to help fight for charms. As usual, I'd go along with whoever, yadda yadda yadda, I kill my Will-o-wisps, and then a bishop from white comes and acts sorry for me, by motions for me to help him destroy 'Charms, I agree, he brainwashes me just in case of morals, the person I fight with continues until I get up to boss (me) defeat me and I snap out of it. I'm okay with the sly 'washes, but I'm just more open about who I go for. *coughWhiteoutfitknightsymbolonjacketcough* It'd be one of Blazi's palette changes if there was a game of this.
 
Great to know that we are finally close to the biggest RP project ever on Charms.

I myself am considering a cameo role in the first pilot episode. However, if there aren't enough people to fill up the four remaining Charms intro-plot scene (since we seem to have more people opposing the Charms loyalists than there are Charms loyalists. Seriously guys, you don't like us?), then I'll happily take one of those spots. ^^

One thing I seem to notice in the two opposing factions is that the Whites, represented by chess pieces, seem to be chivelous, loyal, and honorable, since that's how chess enthuasists describe the game. While the Blacks, represented by cards, seem to be more tricky, tactical, and creative, since that's what you need to win at casino games. I don't know if that was intentional, but if it was, kudos to you too!
 
Right, I decided to draw a very basic map to allow us to get a grasp on locations, so there won't be any "AND THEN HE RAN TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD" type stuff. I do need suggestions on some other locations, due to the lack of anything at the right of the map. I myself, feel that a tentacleraep jungle should be included, but I'll wait for other ideas :'D The photos are a little large, but bear with me.

Left End of the Map
Here is where the West Side of our world is. One can see that the Black Airship has made its home on this end, branching outwards from there. They take up residence high above Oricos' Cemetary, an ominous graveyard, home of the Joker. Nearby is the neighboring country of Gerbolia, where one can find many gerbils as its native residents. Secad and Fi are known to be the diplomats between Gerbolia and the Land of Charms. (I'm making exposition up here, but if Secad could give me a bit more about Gerbolia, I'd gladly put it in. Cause right now there's nowhere to go in it :x) Gerbolia could become a potentially to the effort, or possibly side with one of the factions of Black or White. To the South, one can see their first glimpse of The Charming Sea (Name pending). Of notable interest at the western end is the Isle of the Asian Trio, where three girls of odd stereotypical persuasion tend to reside. Around the whole ocean, although most often frequenting the Isles, one may encounter THE GREAT FAIL WHALE. A phenomenon of its own, it is a benevolent FAIL and carries a tea party upon its back. If one is ever to enter the GREAT FAIL WHALE, one may find temporary residence inside a castle in it's mouth. A little girl from the Isles is said to find her home here from time to time. Moving on.


Bottom Middle End of the Map
Most of the Southlands are comprised of the Charming Sea, which has a few more notable places. The Frozen Island and The Elements are known to be harsh Islands of Ice and Stone, respectively. They are well-known as a fine training spot under the perpetual snow and thunder of each. Sem and Tailon generally visit each most often, respectively. (Why yes, there is an anchor coming from a thundercloud. That's because ANCHORS ARE AWESOMMMMMME >:D) Traversing the sea is one lonely pirate ship, The Black Clamperl. Captained by Freta, this ship frequents the Port (Which is not there yet need some naming for that :x) with important goods from outside realms. It may or may not occasionally deal in passenger passage, as well, for a price. At the edge of the land and sea, a large cliff towers over the shore. Simply titled The Cliff, it has a beautiful view of the city and the forest. It is known that Dark Soul occasionally makes trips up here. To think or something, nobody really knows. Down The Cliff, one passes through The Glitter Forest and around The Fabulous Lake. If you can't guess who has named them that, then it's your problem. Here, we enter the city.


Charms City and the Surrounding Area
'Charms City, in most of its glory. Mostly drawn out the places of note, but I suppose I could add more. At the right end of town are the residential areas, where most members lay their head to rest in their own homes. On the left would be the Art District, filled with RPs, PRPs, Sprites and Art Shops. Sort of like Aero's. Now, at the busy market, there are a number of places. The one that stands out the most is the arena, where members may duke it out as they see fit! There's always enough room, because otherwise, there wouldn't be! With this sound logic, it's always a fun place to see. Anchored next to it is the Charmsian Airship, manned by our good friend RX. It has a market and lots of other things, but more importantly, it is anchored (CAUSE ANCHORS ARE AWESOME YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH) safely to the ground. Tun's sprite shop is also found to the side of it, currently closed down. Tun now runs it as a resting lounge of sorts, like a Chatroom. Easily the tallest building in the City, The Emotional Skyscraper towers even above the clouds, reaching into rainbows and auroras. Ethan takes residence up here, and runs a free transportation system as well. He creates rainbows that lead to different lands, such as Dwayna's home planet, Terrater. One simply hops through the opening and slides down a twisting and turning rainbow that crosses the sky to their destination. In this way, Ethan spreads love to all ♥ Going up the skyscraper is usually the problem, being as tall as it is. There's usually seven rainbows that end in clouds that head up to the top, though. Ethan's recently been away, around right before the Black and White factions arrived. His two friends, Tangrow and Tangrelle, hadn't dropped by in a while, so he's been worried. (So I wrote a lot about the Skyscraper, I could have written the same for everywhere else, but it's not my stage, so I have no right to supply more on the status of the person and the stage.)

The Barren East
(Here's where I need suggestions on places, guys. I'm utterly low here.)
Currently, much of the East is left alone. The White Airship found its way there, and placed itself there shortly, claiming the land. Above, though, one can find a long-Dormant Volcano. Blazikid heads up there from time to time for god knows what reason, and it is known that Toru lives at the Temple placed upon it. The Temple of The Earth Goddess was moved there by the Goddess herself when Toru decided to move into the Land of Charms. She, along with many people like Stel and Alex, help hold The Great Charmsian Barrier. It was an ancient Barrier, erected at the time of the land's forming. It keeps the line between Charms and Noob-Man's Land, where the scum and improper of Charms is thrown too, along where the rest of the terrible lowlife of the internet. If the Barrier was to come down, all hell and godmode would break out.

And...that's all I have so far! Anyway, friends, on the subject of the first scene, we still are in need of 1-2 more for the Charmsian Cavalry (Shiny, Karu(I asked him in chat) and possibly Brendan seem to be on it so far) and then possible one more of the Black cavalry (Seeing as Aero has taken up a spot there.)

Anyway, questions, comments on my sillily drawn map? c:

(Also, Dway, I was thinking the White Ship would be floating around Terrater, with Terrater being above Charms, but since it's yours, I need your go or not for it. :>)

... God knows what reason? XD I only have one problem with that map. I don't think the side of the volcano I train in would be a good place to put a temple, with eruptions and whatnot. I have a suggestion for that map, well, my volcano part anyway. There are little spires of rock, that denizens of the desert would battle and fight black/white/charms people. I'd win them over seeing as they see me a lot. And a change to my original storyline. Instead of being defeated and snapping out of it, I am defeated and transported to my king and queen, only regaining sense in the subspace-esque level. Wherever that may be.

According to Tan: the volcano's dormant, so it's okay to have a temple or whatever there.

Anyways, really like that map so far, Tan. I can't quite tell where some things are, but that's because of the resolution of my computer. ^^;

EDIT: Also, changed my stage in the SSB thread to Vivaldi's Isle. Season change FTW~

Sure, If you really want, I'd be glad to have the white ship orbiting my planet. It is very large, has one landmass (like Pangaea) and has four suns and four moons.

The moons could also be stages to go through, each one representing an element (Earth, Air, Fire, and Water). Once you went through the moon stages, you could go to the center, which is Terrater (or the element of Spirit, if you will.) Any Charmsians can reside there but may find the planets overrun by White forces.

I can just see myself ruling over the white forces on the chess team. *pulls a Magneto* "In chess, the pawns go first." Oh! The chess pieces could be Androids. Hee. >w<
 
Very nice map, Tan~ This gave me quite a lot of ideas, of which the best is shown below:

1. After the battle at the tournament, the people of Team Charm's return to PokeCharms City- Where, for example, Tun and Rex decide to travel to the sea to warn Freta of the incoming danger. But of course, the quickest route to the sea from 'Charms City is via The Cliff. That's where I come in~
I will try to show the following scene as an in-game situation;

A long stretch of road is shown, between two cliffsides. Black Harley/Chopper appears from side of the screen, with Rex, his long coat wavering in the wind, steering and Tunduli in the back seat, holding on to him. Rex suddenly brakes hard, because as seen on the other side of the screen, a huge pile of rock is blocking the way.
Tun: 'This isn't good! We need to get to Toasta as soon as possible!'
Rex: 'It's Freta, Tun. But I agree...'
Rex pulls out a map from one of his coat pockets.
'There is another way from here to the sea; Over the top of the Cliff.'
Tun: 'Then lets take it!'
They dissapear of the screen. Scene changes; Rex and Tun are now driving on the top of the cliff, steering around the rocks. It is night, and cloudy; Thunder rolls.
Rex: 'I don't trust this.'
Tun: 'Me neither. We need to get out of here...'
A bright light fills up the screen, and the only sounds that are heared are Rex's 'Holy-' and the sound of crashing metal. When the light dims again, Tun and Rex are laying on the ground, the bike roasted.
Tun: 'We jumped off just in time... What the hell was that?'
Rex: 'My bike's been toasted... This is the doing of an electrokinetic.'
Tun: 'Who-what? You mean Katie? She's on our side...'
Rex just glares.
'You mean... Dark?'
Thunder rolls again and lightning strikes the ground. Tun and Rex jump away. When the light subsides, Dark Soul is standing there. His face is hidden behind a mask, and both the mask and his shadow armor are decorated with card symbols.
Dark: 'Very clever, Tun.''
Rex: 'I KNEW IT!'
A dark aura covers Rex, with ghostly claws sticking out from it.
Tun: 'But Dark, why? Why did you attack us?'
Dark: 'They made me realize everything that's wrong with this community, and why it must be destroyed...'
Lightning swirls around Dark Soul.
'...Including the people in it.'
Battle commences.

Phew, that was a lot of writing to do. It's just an idea, but I think it'd work~
 
I like your Idea DS, except seeing as this is Brawl-like, the characters wouldn't speak. And by what you've described in that little bit there, it sounds like you are in the equivalent of knights. Rivals! You and I could appear by ourselves in, I dunno, around the forest, and just send our troops after the others, before jumping in and dueling. Cause I'd love to fight DS as a rival.
 

Atma

Formerly Karu
Blazikid makes a decent point, talking is a no-no~

Oh another note, What exactly is 'The Great Charmsian'? And if I can have a coral reef type thing please include it anywhere you feel conveniant~ As for the official name ... >>; Erm ...

The White Coral Reef? Or like, WCR for short x-x;; It'd be like... an underwater plateau vibrant with life, the calcium carbonate reef having grown into medium spires peeking out of the water~ No boats past here >=3
 
After quite a short conversation with Karu and Shiny, there's just one thing I would like to say.

Personally, I really don't agree with the idea of no talking in the RP. It would make it harder, agreed, but I don't really see the fun of that. The game that this RP is based on doesn't include talking, but that doesn't necessarily mean we shouldn't talk either. For example, I think the remaining members of Team Charms would be a little tempted to have a conversation after they are attacked by two evil teams, I think? And how would communication on the battlefield go without yelling out to eachother, or talking trough walkie-talkies?

Of course, it is not up to me, and I'd still join the RP even if we do not talk.

@Blazi: I'd love to battle you, burning down the forest with lightning and fire sounds fun~
 
Sadly Darky, me, and a lot of us, have to disagree.

Because I see this RP as not just a really fun project, but also an excuse for members to pay more attention to details. Since we can't depend on voice to say things any more, we have to do it through body movements. It in turn forces us to describe exactly what our characters are doing, what their faces tell, what their hands are doing, and it really allows for creative descriptions. And what's not fun about that? I mean, sure you can't use amusing dialogue like what often happens in chat, but that's why you need to show it through your characters. Allow me to demonstrate with your example.

A Black Motorbike appears in the distance, zooming down the road as it passes between two cliffs. Rex, his coat fluttering in the wind grips the handlebars while Tun is clinging around his neck and holding on. Suddenly, the bike brakes and skids to a halt in a shower of dust and pebbles. The passengers get out to survey see the enormous rock blocking the road, preventing access between the cliffs. Tun looks over to Rex, sending a look of worry his way. Rex returns with a sigh and a shake of the head, there was no way they could get around this rock. But if they couldn't get to Freta/Toasta in time, the rival factions would get to him first, and neither of them wanted to let that happen. Refusing to give up, Rex pulls out a map and surveys it for another route to the ocean. Then points towards one of the cliff faces, then returns to the motorbike. Tun takes a moment to look at the same cliff before following him.

The duo go back the way they came and go around so that they are now on the top of one of the cliffs, the obstacle that once hindered them now stands far down below. The earth is littered with enormous rocks, forcing the bike to have to twist and swerve to avoid collision. The sky darkens and clouds form. Both Tun and Rex have ominous looks on their faces, this was never a good sign. Suddenly, the world around them flashes, and the sound of crashing metal echoes around them, Rex is caught in half-curse as he and Tun are thrown from their seats and their motorbike is smashed into a pile of scrap metal and fire. Both Rex and Tun are left sprawling in the dirt, Tun looks over to Rex with a look of confusion. Rex looks at Tun grimly, knowing just what, or more who, was responsible for that. Tun stares back with shock and shakes her head, there was no way it could have been Katie. Rex shakes his head, but grim still occupies his face. Tun is then overcome with realization. How didn't they expect it sooner? As if the thunderclouds didn't make it obvious enough.The thunder booms and the lightning crackles, a single bolt races down towards a rock in front of the duo and strikes it in a flash of light. The two spring to their feet as a figure appears at the point where the bolt struck the rock. His face may have been hidden behind a mask, he may have changed his robes for something with numerous symbols descepting spades, diamonds, hearts, and other symbols of the cards. But there was no mistaking the electrokinetic's dramatic entrance. Dark Soul stood before them, a demonic elemental warrior once their close friend and now a deadly member of the Black Deck.

Rex looks up at Dark Soul, his fists clenched and shaking. Tun shakes behind him, anxiously hoping there was no need to fight their former friend. Dark Soul looks down on them smugly, then raises his hand, and a dark aura envelops Rex, with ghostly claws desperately trying to grab hold of Rex. Dark Soul's grin widens, his eyes dance with fire and his bloodlust rages, lightning swirling around him in a desperate fury to be broken loose. Dark Soul sneers at Rex one more time, then leaps.

Battle Commences.


As you can see in the small part of Rex's cussing, you can probably bend the rules a little bit, not actually using the dialogue itself, but implementing that he said something or made some sort of sound. And you have to admit, not saying anything makes you look far more badass than before.

I agree that the no dialogue should stay in effect. Makes the RP challenging, and how is that not fun? It's good to try things you've never done before ;o

I'm more than up for volunteering to be a charmsian on the black faction during the first scenario since I love the concept of the cards (and the Joker being the top rank? Heck yes that's epic!) >>; I have been following along in this thread, I just never ever posted because I'm silly~ Also... If other people have already volunteered and I overlooked it, just ignore me~

Uhm, I'll be joining just as RP!me. Not Chadwyck Felling from Clockwork Heart, just plain ole Chadwyck. Same person really, but they are different in many ways I swear! >>;
 
Okay, here is a question. I've been a little confused. Which team is the 'bad' team, and which is the 'good?'

Edit: I finally figured out the difference. I believe I am a Team Black person, as I like cards. I believe Secad and Fi will enter voluntarily (not be brainwashed) as they (and thus me) can be rather devious,.
 
Perfect DS, Glitter to Ash. I have an Idea for how the knights/cards people talk to their subordinates/higher-ups. They either have a chess piece of the person they want to talk to, or a card depicting the person they want to talk to. Holograms, of course.

And 'Charmsians will totally have little charm bracelets for communication~ no, I don't think 'Charmsians would do that because there's never been much need for anything like that before this. Maybe only the mods and admins, but that's it.

I do like that idea, though there are a few problems. There's really no way to communicate since this is a no-dialogue RP. I can see the holograms thing work out a bit, though sign-language over a long distance won't really work because you can't see your person's surroundings; only the person themself (I would guess), so say the Joker wants Chad to go north and points in the direction of his north, which is to his left, but north for Chad would be forward. Lots of confusion can commence from there~

Not really. Characters can talk in the RP, it's just implied. We don't actually write any dialogue.

A beep suddenly alerted Chad. He pulled out a small, card-shaped communicator and saw that it was Shocari, the Joker. Chad listened to the hologram of his leader, who told him that he wanted Chad to go north of his current location to pick some flowers.

Like that.

And also. If I'm facing south, and I'm told to go north, then I will turn around and go north XD I'm not going to keep going south thinking that I'm going north.

The thing about dialogue is that this doesn't mean that everyone is a mute. They can most likely still talk, they just won't be in this RP. You could write about how your character walks into a room and somebody else was hiding and conversing with the telegram, but was out of earshot to hear what was being said. Thus, we keep the no-dialogue. ^^ It's just that you won't be putting any actual speech in to your posts.

It's all about how you gently bend things when writing that makes it work in a plausible manner. You should want to write so that somebody could read your post and not even realize their was no dialogue, because you described everything so well.

EDIT: Damn, Sem beat me... :T
