You do realize we're still working on 4.85, right? 4.86 is a long ways off.
You're a more-or-less organized group with a presence ingame. To me, that would seem to force the conclusion that you already have some roleplay going, no matter if it'll remain valid for 4.86 or not, unless you mean to suggest you're gaming on the GC server with absolutely no roleplay at all. I hope that makes my point a little clearer, it might've been misconstrued.
Quote:Low life pirate scum? I do believe I've called the GRN worse. How about Ruthless Spacebuckling Pirates? I fly with the {Les~Vampirs} tag and I would hardly consider the work we've done against the Gallic Royals to be low lifed. How does the fight against the gallic royals rule considered low lifed? Sounds more honorable revolutionaries. But how "honorable" it will be would be decided by the winner of the war.
Perfect! This right here is exactly what I was hoping you'd show me, a roleplay premise for Les Vampirs. That's all I ask; an idea for developing your Brigands' backstories and ingame conduct. To me, it looked like BLACKWIDOW's original post had been written for the sake of running a faction and not for the sake of furthering a productive roleplay concept.
Anyway, now that I can see that at least one of Les Vampirs' members has something going, I can help you brainstorm possibilities on how to expand on the basic idea. I just needed to see that there was, in fact, something to work with, and that anybody helping you out wouldn't just be furthering some sort of drive for your very own fakshun.
I, personally, would suggest you take it easy on the political idealism - the Council and Maquis have both aspects of that particular premise pretty well covered. I'd also suggest you don't necessarily slump into generic "low life pirate scum" roleplay. Instead, I'd like to see you expand on the Robin-Hood-esque take-from-the-rich-give-to-the-poor la-bourse-ou-la-vie romantic highwayman deal the Gallic Brigands infocard seems to suggest. Be swashbuckling robbers. Steal the fat merchants' credits away with wit and charm. Do something fun with a great concept.
Quote:<BLACKWIDOW's post>
Yeah, BLACKWIDOW, your RaVeN faction was rejected because of two intertwined problems - one, that your roleplay was sillier than a Monty Python episode, and two, that you were obviously trying to form a powergaming clan here on Disco (even the name and its spelling tell one as much, I mean, RaVeN?). My tip? Try to avoid both of those pitfalls here. Don't necessarily shoot for making Disco go WOWOWOWOWOWOW at your superb storytelling, because chances are you and the majority of Disco visualize WOWOWOWOWOWOW writing and exposition very differently. Stick to originality and proper execution, and you'll probably do fine.
Quote:Emm... What Dragon said. You can't only look at part of it. PRE, being the key words. As in, before hand. Coupled with, "Need tips and Ideas on how I should go about it" equals, Brainstorm/suggestions, pl0x? *sigh* Anyways... I return to my point about literacy being awesome for both this matter and the fact that either you were mocking me by calling me Megiddo, or you mistook me for... Megiddo...
You and Mord make similar arguments, so what I told him goes here, too.
...oh jeez, I actually called you Megiddo, whereas you are, in fact, Magoo!. Oh damn. Ouch. Embarrassing. Slinking off now.
