So I'm back from my trip, probably the best one of my life. :'D Though my laptop completely died while I was away and the hotel lied about free internet. Isn't that lovely? How've you all been?
I'm gonna be away for a bit - life stuff mostly, graduation, trip to England, freshman orientation at college, etc. Given that I probably won't be on KHV much, but I'll probably come on every few days to check messages or do staff stuff. More likely staff stuff than not, lol. Though while I'm in England I may not come on at all and neither will Fayt, depends how busy I'll be but my PMs and VMs will be staying open. And whoever has me on MSN or Facebook or Tumblr will probably see me around too. S'yeah, I'll be fully back online in about two weeks, see ya then. :]
Kicking off the Premium QT is Oerba Yun Fang, better known as Kitty. She's one of those members that's been around here forever and doesn't seem to be leaving anytime soon. Now as always, before we begin I have some rules for you guys - but if you notice, the question cap has been moved up to ten, as Prems tend to be more active: 1 - Keep it within the rules of the forum, nothing over PG-13. It's still on KHV. 2 - The person in the spotlight does NOT have to answer all the questions. 3 - The person in the spotlight will have to answer the question on a regular basis, daily would be preferred, so dedication will be needed. 4 - You must be nominated in order to be in the spotlight. 5 - Don't start an argument with the person getting questioned. Keep it clean and don't use it as an attempt to flame the person. 6 - Don't ask too many questions. Give the person some time to answer, and let others have a chance to ask. Maximum amount of questions asked to the person in the spotlight by one member is 10, and no more than 50 questions can be put forth at one time. Once that member has answered you may ask more. If you ask more than ten questions at once your post will be edited, and if you continue to do so you may be taken off the list for the following week's vote. Ask on.
Everything is Legend of Zelda and nothing hurts [video=youtube;nk8tvyUS2NM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nk8tvyUS2NM[/video]
Spoiler Basically a project I decided to start this summer. Painting Pokeballs. The first three (Timer, Moon, and Dusk) are for friends, and the other three (Safari, Dive, and Pokeball) are mine. They were originally more of an experiment, since I wanted a Pokeball to go along with a generic Trainer cosplay for AnimeNext this weekend, but some people began asking if I was making more and I decided to go with it. Currently planning to begin making and selling them online/at cons with the majority of designs available, but these are the first ones I've made. Cnc, general comments, etc. appreciated. :3
That is all. /E3
I got it last night, it's pretty great. Also reminded me why I love my Tepig so much.
And thus the cycle begins anew. No I haven't been playing Dissidia what would give you that idea Vote on.
Guess what I'm watching. :'D Movie is 10+ years old, animated.
Anyone know who any of these people are? alejandrosite_13@hotmail.com AnEmptySilhouette@live.com a.prisoner.of.today_@hotmail.com doodlemister@hotmail.com j__l91@hotmail.com mesfesto@hotmail.com fauxfix@hotmail.com
I am now done with high school. Presenting my Capstone project in a week, graduating on the 17th, then off to England as a graduation/birthday present on the 19th. I am so ready for this. Congrats to any other seniors graduating this year too :3
Zoids. Those of you who have known me long enough know this is one of my top favorites. So a while ago I decided to clean up some stuff (around the same time as my last thread in here), and took a ton of pictures of some of my Zoids. They're all fairly old now, but they're holding up. These images were also used for the same project as the last thread, so again I was using pretty much the same filters and stuff. I also didn't really have a nice background to take these against this time, so yeah. CnC? Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler
My apologies for this being so ridiculously late, school piled up and fun stuff like that. Anyway, our final normal-member QT goes to Shadow_Rocks. Now as always, before we begin I have some rules for you guys: 1 - Keep it within the rules of the forum, nothing over PG-13. It's still on KHV. 2 - The person in the spotlight does NOT have to answer all the questions. 3 - The person in the spotlight will have to answer the question on a regular basis, daily would be preferred, so dedication will be needed. 4 - You must be nominated in order to be in the spotlight. 5 - Don't start an argument with the person getting questioned. Keep it clean and don't use it as an attempt to flame the person. 6 - Don't ask too many questions. Give the person some time to answer, and let others have a chance to ask. Maximum amount of questions asked to the person in the spotlight by one member is 5, and no more than 30 questions can be put forth at one time. Once that member has answered you may ask more. If you ask more than five questions at once your post will be edited, and if you continue to do so you may be taken off the list for the following week's vote. Ask on.
...is because we are the chosen warriors in a war of the gods.
Recently (as in the past few months) I've been thinking of joining the military. A while ago I considered Marines, but now I'm thinking National Guard, mostly because it centers more on protecting domestic interests than covert ops overseas. Of all the possible jobs in the Guard, I'm most interested in Military Police. Reason being that law enforcement and invesigation has always interested me, plus I have experience in dog training. Granted it won't be the same for training military dogs, but I have trained dogs before. I meet the height and weight requirements for being eligible, and I've talked all the people I know that a decision like this would really affect...except my parents, and that's why I'm here. I don't know how to bring this up to them at all. My parents are super strict and controlling, so I don't know how to even try to talk to them, and I know I have to if I go through with this. While there's the potential of getting deployed, there's probably a higher chance that I'll be a civilian more than active duty, plus the Guard may also help pay for my college tuition. I'm just not sure how my parents will a. react to this and b. react to me as a result. :/
I promised myself I wasn't going to make one of these threads but I need to know. People are saying that rapture will come at a specific hour for everyone, correct? Like 11 PM or whatever. ...how does that work with timezones
RP thread: Click LIGHT Spoiler Half a year has passed since the Deepground incident and a year and a half since the remnants. Life for the former AVALANCHE members has been relatively quiet – Cloud, Tifa, Marlene, and Denzel all live together as a family, with Cloud running deliveries and Tifa managing the bar with Shelke’s help; Barret is still prospecting for alternative fuel sources; Yuffie and Vincent help the WRO when the need arises; Red XIII watches over Cosmo Canyon but also travels frequently; Cid and Shera are in the airship business; and Reeve runs the WRO while sometimes communicating with the others as Cait Sith. Life is good, and life is peaceful. Reports of monster attacks are far less frequent and Edge has been rebuilt. The Shinra Company has publicly apologized and assumed responsibility for much of the world’s destruction and has spent the time assisting in rebuilding what was lost. Towns are coming back, roadways are repaired, and people are slowly and reluctantly accepting Shinra’s apology. The company is still under watch by the WRO despite this. Rufus has remained relatively under the radar, with his Turks rarely seen among the crowds of Edge. Some have said they’ve seen a Turk or two venture into old Midgar, but almost all of these reports came in at night and are unconfirmed. ECHOES Spoiler But suddenly, out of nowhere, the peace shatters. Somehow a rumor is leaked from Shinra HQ that a new danger is on the rise – mysterious monsters are appearing several miles away from Midgar and Edge, reportedly near impossible for the average man to kill and horrifying just to look at. Shinra releases no information on this. On one of Cloud’s late-night returns home, he encounters some of these monsters only to discover they are disturbingly human-like, and once killed they seemed to dissipate into fragments of the Lifestream. The next morning he and Tifa go to Aerith’s church to see if they can find answers. To their surprise, Zack and Aerith are already waiting for them. They explain that there was recently a massive disruption to the Lifestream, one caused by someone still living. Zack tells Cloud and Tifa that the living being is none other than a legendary SOLDIER named Genesis. He says that in an attempt to bring back the former glory of SOLDIER, Genesis wanted to revive his old comrades – Angeal and Sephiroth. While searching for them in the Lifestream to bring them back to the world of the living, he caused the spirits of the dead to flow back to the Planet. BETRAYAL Spoiler Shinra is not innocent in this situation. Rufus and the Turks are knowledgeable of classified information about the whereabouts of Genesis and the influx of zombie-like monsters. Research has been going on for months, shortly after Deepground, mostly at night in Old Midgar. Unseen by the public, the Turks examined hundreds of classified files about the three legendary SOLDIERS and know almost all there is to know about them. Rufus has instructed his men not to reveal any details to anyone, for fear of widespread panic and intervention by the WRO. But this has caught up with him now, and people are getting hurt and killed by these monsters that are a result of Genesis. He has since reassigned the Turks to find and detain Genesis to prevent Sephiroth’s return because the combined power of the two would likely be more than enough to destroy the Planet. REDEMPTION Spoiler The returning and restless spirits are what the new monsters are – the living dead, inhabiting new bodies. Zack says that he and Aerith will look for Angeal to combat the possibility of Sephiroth brought back while Cloud and the others fight off the new threat and search for Genesis, and that Shinra may be withholding information once again. Cloud and Tifa agree and inform their friends about this. Marlene, Denzel, and Shelke are sent to live with Shera while the others prepare for a new battle, one that they pray will be the last against ghosts from the past. RULES 1. No godmodding/powerplay. Two strikes, you’re out. 2. Basic knowledge of the series is required, but details can be referenced from the Final Fantasy Wikia or another source. 3. Try to post at least three sentences per post with decent English. 4. If you use a post template, be considerate and make sure others can read it. 5. Content is limited to what is allowed on the forum; romance is PG-13, keep swearing in moderation. 6. Currently I have no plans for OCs, but if most of the primary characters are taken, I will add a form for it. 7. Two characters per person, again if we get a fair number of people OC forms will be allowed. 8. More rules may be added if necessary. NOTES 1. The dead cannot cross over the Planet unless there is a living being in the Lifestream, i.e. Sephiroth, Zack, Angeal, and Aerith can appear as “visions” on land and speak to characters, but cannot physically touch or harm any living person. 2. The dead are not “gods”, meaning they can’t will something to happen and have it happen. 3. The Lifestream looks exactly like the Planet to the deceased and they can see the living, but to the living the Lifestream is white light. 4. The undead/Lifestream-infused monsters are much stronger and will take more than just an attack or two to defeat, but normal lower-power monsters still exist and are more common. 5. You can use Limit Breaks, but in moderation. 6. Put “ghosts of the past” in your first post. 7. Primary characters will be marked with a * - this means they are fairly vital to the story and would be best if taken first. AVAILABLE CHARACTERS The Good *Cloud Strife - Fayt-Harkwind *Tifa Lockhart - DPWolf *Barret Wallace - Bushy-Brow-1992 *Vincent Valentine - AwkwardFailure *Red XIII - DPWolf *Yuffie Kisaragi - Aqua101 *Cid Highwind - nobodynerd100 Cait Sith/Reeve - The Questionable *Rufus Shinra - TwilightBlader Reno - Cat<3Sora Rude - Elena - Tseng - The Neutral Marlene - kingdomhearts530 Denzel - kingdomhearts530 Shera – Shelke - Aerith G.
