Mine... >>'

I have more than 3.. haven't uploaded any recently. >>; I should do that...

Watermelons? The game has none. However there were jokes about how Shadow is the "Black" Sonic and how he would collect "bling" and "watermelons" (in order to fit with racist stereotypes). These are not to be taken seriously however!

I just know what I've heard. Either way, I've been skeptical about it since it came out. But thank you for clearing that up for me. @@'

^^ Sounds like something straight out of 4chan lol

You lost the game. >> << -skitters-

I guess I have a different opinion considering I played the games and read the comics...

I've always hated the two being separate stories, but at the same time I loved it because it gave different view points to how things unfolded. But after Sonic Adventure 1 came out, they started to bleed those characters into the comics, and much as Nocturne said, nothing is making any sense anymore with all these characters.

I can't say any of the news games have intrigued me - in fact I gave up playing when the Wii released and that whole... what was it called? Ring of something another? I still refuse to play Shadow the Hedgehog - I mean, really, it's not hard to picture Shadow with a gun - any idiot could use one, but watermelons?! >_<

but yea...slowly, I'm giving up on the sonic games until something gives me hope to the slowly spiraling downhill game...

For not owning a iGHTs game you're extremely accurate.

I like these. Great work.

As far as I've cared to tell - he's floating mouth, eyes, and clothing. XD But really no one will blame you for getting anything wrong - interpretation if, what, 60% of artwork ANYWAYS?

But if you want color schemes, what TRiPPY has posted up on the site is a good start - she has one picture at least; there are a few other good ones -- see what they all have in common to be a good base. -Nod-

Mmmm... I'll think on it. I probably may go demented Jackle after all. X3 Though the others sound pretty similar to what I think (except NiGHTS), I think I'd have more fun with him - and it would give your Lass someone to boss around. =D

Eh... old roleplayer. Often seen people get reamed for playing canon characters a bit creatively, so I just wanted to put it out there to keep myself from biting off more than I can chew. XD

Keep in mind the forums are slow. Not everyone is on - but who's to say?

Roleplaying on a forum is a great way to harness description and learning to do more with your English skills. Not to mention learning a lot about what you know and what you don't know if you try to cooperate realism into your characters. -Shrug-

Profiles
Owner: Created by SEGA: Changed and interpretated by Dark Messiah.

Name and Statuses:
Name: Jackle
Race: Maren
Rank: Equivalent to Captain
DOB: Unknown.
Job: Overseer to a faction of Wizeman's lands - also one of the few in charge of mobilizing troops while invading Nightopia.

Appearance:
Weight: Probably not even 50 pounds.
Height: 5'4"
Eyes & Hair: Eyes are a bright blue: No hair to be seen.
Skin: No skin - as he has no 'body'.
Clothing From head to toe - a Jester's hat that the 'fins' curl towards the front of his head, the to of the mask just down over to where his nose would be, his eyes floating there symmetrically with a demented smile. Where his chin would be a cloak drags over his 'neck' orange in hue with the collar jutting up to the sides of his face and back of his neck, held together by golden clasps. His cloak will fall to his 'heels', jutting a bit in a very magician style with white diamonds on the back. His gloves seem to hold claws, with fabric reinforced over his 'wrists', with matching boots. Overall, looking very masquerade in design, without the mask.

Weapons:
Cards: Jackle can manifest and throw a multitude of cards that often act sharp as daggers.

Abilities
Flight: Hover, flying, all he can do. Rarely is he seen touching the ground.
Ideya Drain: Much like any Maren, he can tap into the Ideya of dreamers... but rarely does.

Personality:
Attitude: Jackle has an obsession with games and gambling. Though very demented, occasionally a dark, intelligent side of his can be revealed if dug deep enough. He knows he is not suited for much leadership and if comfortable staying where he is, helping the man who seems to be able to play pawns better than he. Toying with others seems to be his forte more than anything else.
Dislikes: Losing his own games he plays against other people, being at disfavor to Wizeman.
Likes: Games, Gambling, Chance.
Weaknesses: Gambling, a mental disorder over his cloak. It is a security blanket to him and becomes paranoid if anyone touches it.
Strengths: Very intelligent mind with far foresight - if it were nto for all the side trips.

History: It is unknown how Jackle came to be, or exactly what he did before Wizeman came into power. But one thing is certain, Jackle knew Wizeman had things in order and was going to go far - so he hoped to joy ride with that and works as a peon for him. In regards to his co workers, he does not have any as far as he is concerned. He has victims he can toy with. He finds NiGHTS - the mischievous jester of Wize Man's creation, to be his greatest rival. Though NiGHTS was only a prankster, he feels NiGHTS' little games were a mockery to what a true player could do, and as such would be the one to play the jokes on HIM. When NiGHTS was captured and discovered to be unloyal, Jackle was not surprised, but for some unexplained reason, Jackle had begun to seclude himself from everyone.. his paranoia seemed to start to reach a deeper level...

Disclaimer: My interpretation fo Jackle, don't shoot me... >>

How's that?

Seems interesting...

I'm in, but I am uncertain what fan character to join as.

If you need me to, I can play any of the Canon Characters - I will just need your interpretation of them: I know how each acts in the games, and that may need to be changed depending on what you desire to occur. If nothing else, I may play a more demented Jackle if that is allowed. -Head tilt-

Here are my Characters.

Username: Dark Messiah
Name: Marissa Na'tris
Race: Human
Age: 21
Ideya Addiction: No Addiction.
Likes: Doing her own thing, forging her own path, helping others.
Dislikes: People who do not agree with her, bullies.
Powers: None.
Abilities: Uncanny knack for always being right - or determined enough to be right in the end.
Strengths: Strategic, Open minded
Weaknesses: Ego, Opinionated, Often forgets other people can think without her.
Brief History: Marissa grew up in downtown New York, US of A. Introduced into the life of art, she found herself striving to prove her worth to her fashion model mother and her graphic designer father. As such, she tended to lash out in the wrong ways; but somehow her bat-logic ways worked out in the end. She attended the local college at her own request - and as a senior in college - her classes were abruptly called to a halt when she woke up in the morning to find most of the city fused like something from either Disneyland or Tim Burton's best work.
Appearance: Platinum hair, often used as just the blank canvas - as she sprays hair dye in her hair that washes out - making little designs in her hair with swirls or stars: Whatever fits her clothing. Her style is wild, and she loves it that way.


Whatcha guys think?

Aaaand we're open! Yay!

Roleplay Forum

Quick link for you all. I'm so sweet. >>'

"Attero somnium, servo ago, is totus opes nusquam in terminus..."

It happened suddenly, too quickly for any being (be they human or Maren) to comprehend. The three worlds: Waking, of Dreams, and of Nightmares, were suddenly drawn together over night to create one new world. How this came to be no one knows, but chaos is wrecking as Marens haunt beings, and humans naturally adjusting to the fact their own dreams are alive before them in this twisted fairy tale of life.

However, beings adjust and evolve to fit their current life styles - it is the natural order of things. Though is has only been a month since The Great Fusion, people are still adjusting to the new changes.

What is your role in this new life? Are you a helping hand? A neutral to your own business? A back stabber? Are you enjoying this new world or seeking to change it back to it's origins by discovering what has managed to happen behind the scenes?

Roleplay Forum

Updates:

• 22-September:
• Roleplay Thread Created in Nightmare Section.
• Accepting Characters.

• 06-September:
• Introduction completed.
• Rules Completed.
• Character Skeleton Added.
• Accepting Characters.

Rules:
Every place has it's rules. (Sorry so long)

• Cannon Characters: There will be NONE! No NiGHTS, Reala, Wiseman - Nadda! Lets see some creativity here, please. If your character is tied to a Cannon Character, we will discuss something - but preferably, no.
• Accepted Races: Any. You can be Human, Maren, whatever. Feel free to make up a special race in this new world - but if you do this, I would like a little detail on the race that way f someone's bored enough, someone could play another one.
• No GodModing: For those not used to this term: You are not God. You cannot constantly dodge bullets, never take hits, all powerful, blah blah blah. First offense is fine, but I will lay down the all mighty hammer if it comes down to it. I will be giving everyone the benefit of the doubt with their character's powers, if they have any...
• No PowerPlaying: For those not used to this term:You cannot control other people. So please don't...
• Do NOT use OOC to IC! Those who do not know what this means - if you could not figure it out as your character in the roleplay, then you do not know it! Just because it says so in the profile does not mean it may be obvious!
• Be Considerate: I want everyone to enjoy themselves; if someone is causing problems, tell them in PM or tell me and allow me to handle the situation. I will be keeping an eye out, but I may need the assistance.
• Only 2 Characters Allowed for Each Person! I do not want to see a fully flooded area of characters that are not getting played; so I am restricting it to just two for now. If you are demonstrating capabilities of handling more, I will let you know. For everyone's benefit - figure out a creative way to show the difference between both of your character's posts. Two separate colors works most often. (This does not include NPCs. Have as many of those as you want).
• Be Semi-Literate: I am no Grammar-Nazi. In fact I will be the first to admit I fail at the English language (it's my birth language too, go figure). As such, so long as you are making an effort to be descriptive, trying to make your misspellings make sense to the best of your abilities, and your grammar and punctuation make some sense, I will not complain. However, I will not accept net speak, 1337, or anything there of.
• Paragraph and third person: Try and roleplay in the third person, and I expect - with this being semi-literate and all - to have a minimum of a paragraph post for each post. I understand writer's block, because it happens, but I will say something if it becomes a habit of making one liners.
• You are APART of this! I intend to make this a very long term roleplay - so only join if you are serious. Also, feel free to be creative and create things in this world. I am not against it - I love it when the players take initiative. I am leaving a lot vague - giving you all a blank canvas.
• I reserve the right: to make changes to the rules or add as I see fit.

The World:

As it says in the introduction, no one knows what has happened in the world - but something of dark magic has fused all three of the worlds together - and now cities bleed into demonic or fantasy settings. Sky scrapers shift from normal foundations up into spiraling dark metal that easily could fit a old timed horror movie; or the local river shifts into lavender waters with flying fish, glitter in the air, and living trees. It is a true blend of the worlds.

The legends of NiGHTS, Reala, and those involved have been gone for some time - no one knowing where they went or what really happened to them - easily estimated around a thousand years. It has been a month since the fusing - what will you do?

The Addiction! All dream creatures - good and evil alike, are becoming more and more drawn to the very energies most have been created by. The Ideya's are like a drug in the hands of everyone - how it influences you, I will allow you to decide. Keep in mind it is only a small addiction for the moment - but as time goes on, these addictions will get worse and worse. Can you fight it? It's your character, but again, as time goes on.... That's right - by draining an Ideya, you're taking away a part of a human. (Oh Snap, what'll happen here?)

[--Note--: As Posts are added and major places made up, I will add them here - so feel free to be creative!]

Until I say otherwise, we're pretty much going to be accepting people until....whenever. -giggles-

Anyways, I'll probably be starting the thread up here in the next day or so in the Nightmare realm. Those who're accepted can begin posting then, naturally. Open accepting for the most part, anyone can join in at any time, really.

Awesome. Approved; a bit vague but that's fine. Will make it much more interesting in the roleplay -nods-

Should I wait for more people to join or just start it up and allow people to join as they see fit? Decisions...

I'll PM it to you since it's not really something for this thread.

Well obviously you're concerned about it. And I know, I read the beginnings of that conversation in her Ad thread. If you want me to go off of what she said, I can grant you advice from there.

Ventro: Nightmares, definitely. I often give the story over to my players and enjoy seeing what they can come up with in sub-plots during the major plot. =D And feel free to test some characters here. I'm never against the idea.

NyClone: If it helps, I'm a 12 year Veteran when it comes to roleplaying on forums. If you want to PM me some samples of your work, I can assist you with what may seem to be problematic.

Has anyone else ever been visited by an unknown, but very unfriendly entity?

-Whistles- This brings back memories... It's been some time since I have had one, but yes.. I would have very... very horror type dreams where such entities would perform very rated R and above tasks to other people or myself (to spare such details ^^; I do not feeling like going into details here in the threads, thanks.)

Though through dream interpretations, I believe it was more a situational thing than being encountered... so yes and no in it's own way to your question. As many said before me, it's a possibility you are being visited in your dreams, but it also possible it is something you want to happen - it you have latent control. Who's to say what the subconscious wants us to know or do?

You've got such a cute style! And colorful too - I likes.

Wal Mart sells little balls you could put into a ball pit - get one of those, maybe a plate or something light weight from the crafts section, and a rod. Hot glue that, yo. XD Even if you can't get the right shades or anything, you can always paint it the color you want. Metallic Blue isn't hard to find.

Just a suggestion.
