I'm kinda new to this whole roleplaying thing on this site, I've roleplayed on other before, so I was wondering if there was a certain way we roleplay here. Do we take turns? Or what.
Well, its sort of turn based. I mean, there's no set turn order, but you sort of go whenever it makes sense for your character to go next. Right now, there isn't any interaction going on between characters, but once there is interaction, the characters will go back and forth. It will become easier to make sense of the turns as we get further into the game. If you want to get a clearer picture of turns, check out The Orb of Pyritus game, and you can get a sense of how interactions go.
Ah, thank you. I want to tread carefully here because this forums is a lot more organised than the other I am on and obviously needs a higher quality to posts.
Changed my character. I had originally had the concept that is up now, but I forgot about it (because I didn't put it up when it was in my head), but just remembered it randomly. Looking forward to the color in the skies!
Hey everyone, for future posts, could you put your hero names in the title as well. Such as my post as such: George Riza/ DaVinci If your character is not a superhero, no need to worry. If they are, and don't have a superhero identity yet, you can wait until they gain one.
WF is really pissing me off right now. I can't send PMs. Keep getting a blank white page when I click "send" or "preview." It's been doing this for over an hour now. I've tried logging out. I've cleared my internet cache. I even restarted the browser. White page every time. Have no fear. AnonyMouse is coming, guys, he just has to fist-fight the internet first... EDIT: Nearly ten hours later and still no luck. I've tried different browsers. I've tried other computers. It's definitely a problem on the site's end. Why it is so strongly opposed to sending a character template to naturemage is beyond me...
