    The Departed

    I thought this movie was awesome, has anyone else seen it? It's got Leonardo Dicaprio, Jack Nicholson, Anthony Anderson, Matt Damon, and many more. It was produced by Brad Pitt and Directed by Martin Scorsese. I cant say what the movie is about because any little thing would be spoilers that could ruin the movie since its a constant ride spinning and turning, making you guessing constantly, its definatly worth picking up, so if you havnt seen it, I suggest renting it NOW!

    What if, in certain rare cases ((I.E.: Sora)) if the nobody meets with his original, they reform, and their hearts connect back into one body, BUT it leaves another behind again, since life is energy, and energy cannot be destroyed, just changed into another form

    Now, I will go a little more in-depth

    A few things for starters, that are undeniable, and already known

    Unique events:
    Kairi's separation of Heart and body

    Sora turning himself into a Heartless

    Riku's possesion, and separation from his body.

    Creation of a Nobody:
    When a person with a strong heart becomes a heartless, the shell they leave behind breathes new life and develops a will of it's own, creating a Nobody.
    -------
    Now there we have, three very unique happenings that could make a strong person into a heartless, and therefore a nobody as well. But, what happens to the energy held by a Nobody when meeting with their original? Since Energy cannot be destroyed, only recycled, It would have to go somewhere, while yes you can say "The energy from them goes into the original" But did you notice anything different at all with either Sora or Kairi? No. Therefore, I believe that lost energy from the Nobody's life formed into the 'Chasers' My theory here relies heavily on Riku becoming a heartless as well, and making a Nobody...which is neither proven nor known officially, only speculated.

    now, I play off this part of Chain of memories:

    Zexion: If you'd let me finish... The scent belonged to a very convincing
    double. But I can't say much beyond that, since the would-be Maleficent
    is no more. Our other visitor saw to that.

    Lexaeus: Who is it?

    Zexion: I don't know... But the scent was very similar to the Superior's.
    Exactly similar, if I may say.

    Vexen: Rubbish!

    Zexion: Fact, Vexen. Now, what shall we do?

    Lexaeus: Let us bide our time and see what develops.
    ---------

    Now, TECHNICALLY they never do say 'Xenmas' is the 'superior' in CoM, we only assume it through KH2's fact that 'Xenmas' is the leader. My theory also plays on this possibility:

    Riku's 'Scent' is identical to the superior's because, Riku's nobody is the superior at that time. Now, what happens when Riku beats Ansem at the end of his story? it cuts to him walking down the road in an Orginazation XIII cloak, but where did he get it? He met his nobody and merged with him-A 'Chaser' is born.
    -----------
    In Kingdom Hearts 2: Sora meets Roxas, and they merge together- A 'Chaser' is born
    Kairi meets Namine, and they combine- A 'Chaser' is born.
    ---------
    We know the chasers are two males, and one female, In my opinion, one does look like Roxas, because its the body he left behind when his soul merged with Sora, one looks like Kairi/Namine with Platinum hair, and the other has the same eyes that Riku had, look at his eyes, they are a bright blue much like Riku's....so, these 'Chaser' characters are not Sora/Roxas Kairi/Namine and Riku/??? but infact the Energy left behind from the Originals and the Nobodies meeting.

    Welcome to the Workshop ^o^

    This is a thread where you as an RPer, or as a normal member, can come in and post a sample of your RPing (Quotes work just fine, do not post a link to a thread, that would be considered advertising in here :3) and the other members and fellow RPers can critque and complient you on it and give you suggestions for it ^^

    Please note, that if you are a maker or participant in an RP, you can refer people to this thread for pointers. If you are a person refered to this thread, do not take it as an insult, its just an attempt to make it more fun for you to RP. :P

    In this thread you can also post your ideas for new RP's, and members can give you the Yes/No on that as well.
    ~^editted by Rosey^~

    This is to help some new Role-Players(Rp'ers) create a good rp, one that is structured and well played, one that engrosses it's rp'ers and makes for a great experience all around. Things will be added constantly, so check back often.


    Suggestions

    Make some Rules: Always make sure to post some small rules and guidelines in the first post for the other members to see and follow, you don't want your RP to become chaotic and unmanageable.

    Have a structure and storyline thought up: you don't necessarily need an entire comprehensive story, just a basic plot would suffice.

    Do not allow your RP to become filled with Off topic or OOC posts: This is one MAJOR downfall to a lot of rp's the members begin to post OOC (out of character) instead of IC (in Character) and the thread becomes filled with spam, or worse is locked/deleted.

    Make three dimensional characters: Not every one can be an enigmatic mystery, you need to develop history, personality, why are they doing what they are doing now, and what brought them to wherever your story begins? A good template for this (though your free to remove or add as much as you wish) is:

    Name:
    Age:
    Appearance: (A description OR a picture are welcomed)
    History: (What are some events that happened to him/her before the story began?)
    Personality: (is your character sincere, sarcastic, nice, mean?)
    Weapons and Abilities: (If your doing a fantasy style RP)
    Biography: (A little about the character's motivations)

    Guidelines:
    An RP should have a good story, don't just make one up on the spur of the moment, gather 1 or 2 people and develop something GREAT over the course of a few days, It will make for a much better looking RP

    Have fun, don't take the RP seriously, if someone insults your character(and they are in character) Do not think of them as an enemy outside of the RP, they may be simply following their character's personality.


    A good RP post example would be this:
    Character 1: Walks into the room grinning. "So, you think you can sneak in here and be a hero? Don't make me laugh!"
    Character2: Stares unflinchingly at the man. "I told you, I will do what it takes to get my vengeance..."


    Now, A BAD example is this:

    Character 1:*appears magically* hello haha you suck who duz u tink u r *laughs*
    Character 2: shut up

    I cant get enough of this movie! I swear I think its one of the best ones in a very very long time (definatly better than any Pierce Brosnan bond flick) I thought the opening credits alone were the perfect image that would be expected of Bond. Daniel Craig fits the role impeccably. He had the Bond attitude. What alot of people I know didnt know was that Casino Royal was supposed to be his very first mission, meaning it preceded all the movies chronogically. Therefore, Daniel didnt have the refined Bond attitude like the others got, until the very very last scene of the movie. Im glad to know that theres at least one more Bond film with Daniel Craig scheduled for next year (currently Titled Bond 22) what are your opinions about this movie, and the new bond's portrayl of everyone's favorite secret agent?

    Has anyone else picked up this RPG? I thought it was a rather interesting game, a bit drawn out and poor dialogue at times, but all in all it was a great game(as expected by anyone that played/enjoyed the previous Lunar games) I wanna hear other people's opinions about this game though, so if you've played it or seen it even, lets hear what you thought about it.

    I was wondering what you all thought of Haseo's forms he takes in this game, my personal favorite was his original form(Twin Blades)

    [​IMG]

    His next form(Blade Punisher) allows him to use both twin blades, and heavy swords, his costume changes dramatically from the original and looks like this instead:

    [​IMG]

    His third(and legal, final form allows him to wield twin blades, heavy swords AND sickles! but its very cliche 'dark/evil/demonic' looking:

    [​IMG]

    NOW, however, in vol 3 he surpasses the system parameters and gains an 'XTH Form' allowing him, as i assume, to wield the previous three weapons, PLUS dual bladed pistols This is my favorite, after his original form, of course. From what I've heard, it allows him to attack close range with the blades, and then ong range with the pistol attachments, he can fire two times before needing to reload it, I dont know if he requires actual ammunition though, if anyone else knows tell me.:

    [​IMG]

    Whats your opinions about these changes to his appearance? Like them, hate them?

    About this story: No, I dont own any rights to Fire Emblem, I am just one of the biggest fans.
    This story isnt dirivative from any FE game in particular, so you really dont need to play any of the games in order to understand this, though at some points there MIGHT be references to the games, im not sure yet. If you choose to criticize this story, bear in mind that this is my first attempt to write anything, and this has been floating around in my head for close to 4 months now.




    Chapter 1: Tides of War

    It was a cold windy day; the town seemed almost empty now as everyone gathered in one place. The sun had begun to lower itself in the sky and gave off an orange and pink light through the sky. In a small village caught up in a war between two kingdoms a man realized nothing is sacred in the flames of hatred.



    Derek stood in the middle of the group of townspeople, wearing formal clothing. He stood in front of a newly filled grave, which read the name of his father. "We didn’t deserve this..." He thought to himself as his eyes wandered to all the newly filled spaces in the ground. "None of us were soldiers..." His face twisted from despair to anger as he walked away. He didn’t know what he would do, but something told him that he had to make something change. He wandered the empty streets lost in his thoughts before a man approached him. "Are you the eldest son of Lord Nephilim?" He asked in a serious tone. Derek stopped and nodded to the man. "Yes. Yes I am." The strange man shrouded in a cloak, most obviously a shaman held out a sword-his father's treasured blade. "This was written to be yours upon his death. Take it with honor." Derek regretfully reached out and grasped the sheath of his new blade; a single tear ran down his face. "My father died two days ago...and your already giving his stuff away....vultures never cease to amaze me...” The man laughed. "His will read to deliver this as soon as he were buried." with that he left silently, leaving Derek alone and holding the one item his father cherished most.


    Back at the gravesite.

    A young girl around the same age as Derek watched him leave. She was crying heavily for both the grief of the Lord's death, and for seeing the man she loved her entire life turn his back and walk away. She wanted to follow him, her fingers played with the bottom of her purple tunic, her hair hung in her face caked to her cheeks from the moisture of her tears. After several minutes she decided to go after Derek and console him. She searched to no avail and had given up when she saw the two men talking. Upon realizing who it was she ran to him and threw her arms around him in a tight hug. "I’m so sorry for your loss..." She still was sobbing.

    "It’s fine; it’s not really your concern Bethany." Derek mumbled as he pushed her away from him. "And I told you not to ouch me..." He looked at her emotionlessly. "S...sorry...I just want you to know your not alone." she replied sadly as she looked to the ground. "I’m not alone...but I have nothing left either." He said before walking away, leaving the girl as she dropped to her knees and cried harder.


    Derek returned to his large home and immediately began packing clothes and rations. He made sure to bring plenty of vulnaries incase he had to fight at anytime. He planned to walked to both countries and settle this war in any way necessary. Once he was finished packing he got dinner and then went to bed.

    The next morning.

    Derek awoke to a loud thud. He quickly jumped up and opened the curtains and ran down stairs. He saw Bethany sitting under the window rubbing her backside. "Ouch..." she mumbled.”I just know he heard that too!" She looked up to see Derek already dressed and heading quickly for the door. "Hey! Wait! She screamed and went after him. "You don’t plan to travel alone do you?" she asked curiously, her hands behind her back. "Yeah...it was the plan." He answered, walking faster. "Well you can't!" she exclaimed, fighting to keep up. "You'll just get in trouble and fights every step of the way. You need someone that knows how to talk to people so that you stay out of trouble." she grinned. "And let me guess..." Bethany cut him off. "I’m perfect for this!" she waved a finger. "But you know....you should bring at least one mounted knight so they can ride ahead and scout for you!" Derek just sighed. "You’re enjoying this way too much..."


    Chapter 2: High Spirits

    The Dephonise Empire, successful in their raid of Yunole village, part of Dracaena. Dephonise and Dracaena have been waging war for over a hundred years, a century trapped in stalemate until now.


    Emperor Avron stands at the head of his army, holding a goblet. “To your victory in battle!!” He cheered, followed by the other knights, mainly horse mounted or wyvern riders. One small cleric stood out from the rest of them, a small woman with light brown hair and brown eyes. She didn’t look like the kind of person that belonged in an army. She was clad in cleric robes and was traveling to become a priestess for the church. She just smiled and tried to move away from the men as they drank and partied. She thought about all the death she had helped cause and cried in her tent.

    Avron stood in his golden armor, his black Wyvern obediently at his side. “If we continue like this, we will soon have the world!” His army cheered again. Their spirits high from the battle. Katie cried more as she heard them cheer louder and louder. “How can someone be this happy, while there are others so obviously equally as upset!?” She thought to herself, face buried in her pillow. She eventually cried herself to sleep, covered from head to toe under her blankets and breathing heavily into her pillow.

    A woman stood behind Avron a cape tied tightly around her neck, reaching up to hide the lower half of her face, she didn’t wear much on the side of clothing, just enough to stay decent but still be able to move freely. She had two daggers, one on each leg and had flaming red hair in a pony tail reaching mid back and overshadowing her eyes in the front. No one knew her true name, but only as the harbinger of death. She had found herself oddly befriended by the very opposite female, Katie.

    The Harbinger didn’t party, didn’t celebrate, she looked as though she were a statue, only moving to perform a killing strike, a common style for an assassin. Avron turned to her and laughed. “Go check on our cleric, I wouldn’t want her to miss out on the festivities.

    She nodded silently and walked, not even snapping a twig under her feet. “The boss wants you.” She said softly as she heard the sobbing. “You’ll get used to the killing, don’t worry.” Katie woke up and looked at the woman. “That’s exactly what I am worried about though Jessica…” The female assassin smiled. “Don’t call me that here…If you don’t go now, it’s our heads on pikes too…what would you do?” Katie smiled. “Run away…never fight again...”

    Something seemed to change in the battle hardened woman. She smiled ever so lightly. “Then….let the winds carry us in the arms of mother earth and father sky Young Katie…” She turned and left, Katie Promptly following behind, looking for a life of peace, their hearts light with happiness now.

    Chapter 3: Seeds of Discontent

    Derek stared at the sky as everyone around him slept. It had been three days now since they left his town. His small group now consisted of himself, Bethany, Bethany’s brother Grenz, who was a scholar in the arts of Anima magic. He sighed and thought to himself What the hell have I gotten myself into? This was supposed to be me just going after the bastards... Why do they have to come along too? He sat up and looked around momentarily before grabbing his gear and sneaking away. Sorry Bethany but I want to do this on my own…

    Once Derek could no longer see the campfire he began walking at a normal pace. The sun would rise in a few hours and he wanted to get as far away as possible. The emperial border should be about a half mile north of the next town… He told himself as he tried to map the land out in his memory.

    As the sun rose and Bethany awoke to find Derek’s sleeping bag empty she shook Grenz violently. “HE’S GONE!!!” she screamed. Grenz just rolled over and yawned. “Probably going to the bathroom, calm down Bethany…” Bethany continued her crying as she started packing her stuff. “Fine…you stay here and sleep I’m looking for Derek!” She slung her bow over her shoulder and strapped the quiver to her waist and started to run through the field, hoping he went to town. Grenz sighed a few minutes later and got up and followed after her with his tome in hand. That girls gonna be the death of me…I swear. He sighed.

    Derek reached the town and walked through the main roads, staring at the weapons and staves that layed about to draw warriors in. Just as he was about to leave through the northern exit he heard a scream. Instinctively he spun around with his hand on his sword.

    A little girl ran scared as bandits began to swarm the village burning houses to the ground. “How dare they…?” He growled as memories of his town burned into his mind. In a fell strike he charged at one of the bandits, slicing clean through his stomach. His sword began to glow and howl after the blood shed. Derek stared at his blade and smiled. “I see….so you want to protect them too do you?”

    Bethany and Grenz made it into the town just before it went into lockdown. They saw A bandit raise his axe to strike a young boy of eleven down. Bethany grabbed her arrow and shot into the bandit’s shoulder, halting the attack. The young boy grabbed the gold purse the bandit held and ran. Grenz laughed. “The little brats a pickpocket!” He felt a sharp pain in his leg and saw the head of an arrow sticking out of his shin. “*******!” he screamed as he spun around chanting a thunder spell at the enemy archer, Bethany’s own bolt from her bow struck at the same time and acted like a lightning rod. Grenz pulled the arrow out and drank a vulnary. “Lets find Derek…” Bethany smiled and nodded before running off.

    Several hours had passed and it was now well into the after noon hours of the day. The bandits had all been killed and the bodies burned. Bethany finally found Derek and she smacked him. “WHY’D YOU LEAVE!?” she asked before hugging him tightly. “I was worried…” Derek stood there and sighed. “I don’t want you following me…This is my battle.” Grenz stood at the end of the street and watched the two. I swear….if he hurts her I will kill him. He had already not liked Derek since they were kids, but now, knowing his sister loved the man, he absolutely hated him.

    I was wondering why FFVII is considered the best by so many fans, compared to many others in the series (4, 5, 6 come to mind first) Were so much better. 7's story line is so straight forward. You know who is bad, who is good, who you need to fight, its all laid out plainly for you to see early on in the game...This[ means, you dont really get to know the villains for themselves, since it focuses only on your group trying to stop said villain. Now, 4(I believe it was, with Cecil, everyone's favorite dark knight turned paladin) Has to fight his best friend, Kain(A dragoon/lancer for those that dont know) thinking he had turned to the bad guys' side, only to later find out he was under a mind control spell and being forced to act against the friend he had grown up with.

    Final Fantasy 5, had one of the scariest villains i have encountered, A black Mage Knight named X-Death. He was so evil and powerful he had been sealed in another dimention for a thousand years!

    6 had one of the biggest twists in a game I had ever seen, Also the villain in this title, Kefka, in my opinion made Sephiroth look like a baby. Kefka atually managed to destroy the world and recreate it in his image (reffered to as World of Ruin) where he was a god who could kill anyone that spoke ill of him anywhere on the planet.

    FF7 simply had Sephiroth, who if you look at it, was a grown man throwing a tantrum. I just cant take that as serious...
