Homestuck Original Session Discussion

Yes, that would be good.

Note to self: Be more explicit when expressing interest in an RP.

 

All right! RP just got more awesome with Pika.

 

Sorry >_> But yeah, it'll work either way. And if you'd like to be Space so Britishism can be something else, let him know I guess. Whatever you guys decide. Would like to keep the Scholar, though, regardless of who decides to be one.

 

Er, when abouts are you thinking of posting the forms, Sforzato?

 

What?: Do the Introduction Thing

Spoiler

​

Your name is ASHWIN MAGHAN. You are FIFTEEN YEARS OLD. You hold a veritable cornucopia of interests - you are a fan of all sorts of KNOWLEDGE, especially on the MECHANICS OF THE WORLD AND ITS SOCIETIES. This manifests itself through your love for both the SCIENCE and HUMANITIES - though you are especially privy towards ARCHITECTURE, HISTORY, CHEMISTRY, and LANGUAGES. A shame you are ONLY COMPLETELY FLUENT IN ENGLISH. You hold a special adoration for a rather eclectic combination of things - you consider 1920's ERA FASHION to be RATHER LOVELY, you are an enormous fan of JAZZ AND BLUES MUSIC, though this provides a rather strange CONTRAST with your CONSTANT INTERNET TIME and your ADORATION OF JAPANESE ANIMATION. Though you claim that you enjoy ANY FICTIONAL WORK as long as it is WELL-WRITTEN. You are also a horrendous GAMER OF SOME INEXPLICABLE SORT. You reside in your small home with your rather loud and almost hammy FATHER. You are the SAGE OF DISCORD. Your STRIFE SPECIBUS has been allocated to BOOKKIND and your SYLLADEX is of the PERIODIC TABLE MODUS. Your chumhandle is sophophilicGentleman and you are prone to inserting your slightly confusing and long-winded phrases with excessive word usage and general verbosity in itself, adding an addressive suffix of some sort, good sir or madam reading this short introductory phrase.

 

Sumi: Do the (Verbose) Introductory Thing

Your name is SASUMI CAPRIE and although you sound pretty cool and ASIAN, you are actually ITALIAN AMERICAN. You are of 16 YEARS OF AGE and think that is PRETTY DAMN COOL. You even have an OLD WHITE VOLVO that has been through more TRAFFIC ACCIDEN- NEVERMIND. KENTUCKY is pretty full of ACCIDENTS. You like WRITING and playing BASS GUITAR, although you are a moderate FLAUTIST as well. Your favourite subject is JAPANESE, but you like SPANISH, too. In fact, you happen to be studying a MULTITUDE of languages at the moment. Your FETCH MODUS is a TRANSLATOR.
You are NOT VERY ORGANIZED and have problems with PUNCTUALITY. Your EDUCATION is most important to you, and you spend A SHITLOAD OF TIME doing HOMEWORK which ends up becoming DOODLE PAGES because you LOSE TRACK OF TIME and are DISTRACTED so very often. SURREALISM freaks you out, but you like it anyway. You play a lot of VIDEO GAMES, and enjoy joining FANSITES and FORUMS based on your favourite FANDOMS. You know your BEST FRIENDS from ONLINE, where you spend HOURS UPON HOURS reading about ASTRONOMY and HOROSCOPES.
At times, you can be a bit more VIOLENT than necessary. You usually go mess around and shoot FAKEY ZOMBIES in the WOODS by your EDIFICE to RELIEVE STRESS when you are too WORKED UP. This happens often, usually on account of your MULTITUDES of LITTLE BROTHERS. Your STRIFE SPECIBUS is PISTOLKIND. You carry TWO, just to be safe. It is also the tradition of your ROLEPLAYING CHARACTERS to use these same weapons.
You speak in a manner that changes depending on who you are talking with, but usually try to keep up a decent standard for grammar and punctuation. You type in a dark red and sometimes you ramble off about other things or make far too incomprehensible metaphors.
You are EXTREMELY EXCITED to begin playing a game called SBURB with your friends. ​

 

Okay! It is time.
I am doing it.
You have both inspired me. I am going to make
The best intro

 

I'd like to take Scholar, but I'm impartial on Space. I mean, the side quest could be interesting, but there are downsides too. It depends what Britishism wants.

 

@P, I'd love having Space. Love it. And I'd prefer Seer.

 

I'm just looking forward to following your stories. XD Consider me an outside observer that can do nothing to manipulate any events at all. Unless, Nova needs something done. * kneels* Then it shall be done. XD I'm so excited!

 

Fearless: Introduce yourself properly.

Your name is GWEN ARLINGTON. You are SIXTEEN YEARS OLD and have recently recieved a RATHER B*TCHIN CAR from your MOM, as a present for obtaining your DRIVERS LICENCE. You still prefer your ROLLERSKATES for short distance transportation, however.
You hold a multitude of interests, some of which hold your fancy longer than others. Like many of your friends you are studying several LANGUAGES. JAPANESE seems to be the norm, but you are also studying NORWEGIAN and FRENCH. Also like your friends, you hold the medium of JAPANESE ANIMATION close to your heart, and you hope to be an ANIMATOR someday.
You are also fond of DRAWING, but you AREN'T ALL THAT GREAT AT IT. You do not draw stick figures though. Stick figures make you shudder in disgust if drawn by anyone over the age of six for anything other than comedic purposes.
Another interest is SEWING and COSPLAY, but you are very LAZY and barely ever do it. In fact, you are so lazy you neglect your HOMEWORK in favor of playing GAMES with your friends and surfing the internet for YAOI.
Your STRIFE SPECIBUS is allocated to AXE-KIND, although admittedly the only actual AXE you own is the one your DAD left in the shed a while ago. This seems to be rather apropriate, as you are the HEIR OF BLITZ, whatever the hell that means, and you reside in the LAND OF SEA AND STARDUST, whatever the hell that is. Your FETCH MODUS is HAMMERSPACE, wherein you pull sh*t out of thin air, because you honestly couldn't think of anything better.
Your chumhandle is cleverPlayer and you tend to freaking not!swear at many opportunities. Jesus christ on a bike, you really just could not think of any other way to talk.​

 

Everyone's intros. <3
Are we playing where everyone already knows titles/lands? * - *; Or are we starting more towards when they are entering the game and don't know anything yet?

 

Probably where no one knows jack sh*t. I just put that stuff in my intro because I CLAIM THEM AND THEY ARE MINE.

Also, I think you and me may be the only females.

 

....:0
Well, I guess that just makes us AWESOME.
I should probably add my title into mine but everyone knows it already so. xD; I did come up with a possible land for myself. Land of Stopwatches and Melt. What do you mean I watch too many Salvador Dali films--

 

Whelp, that settles that. I'll take Space and you can find something else.

AHEM.

I mean, I'll find something else and you can take Space.

 

NOW.

Yes, we have a logo. Who's your daddy.

Guys, please check it out and let me know if anything's missing or if there's something I could stand to add. My brain is so frazzled right now and I'm really nervous that I'm gonna mess something up. ;_;

Titles, not Lands. The Lands have to be in my control because they are game constructs and as such they are inexorably linked to several other game constructs; they cannot simply be chosen willy-nilly! I was originally going to govern titles/powers too, but I don't want to take all the freedom away.

Also, we will be starting from the point where no one is in the game, and some people may not have even gotten their copies yet! There must be one significant obstacle in the way of each character's acquisition of and entry into Sburb, but some obstacles may be less problematic than others. Everyone will enter at different times, after all.

I'm still debating how to handle house/neighborhood exploration. Naturally the player knows more about their location than I do, but I need to structure it such that there are goals and secrets to be sought. Maybe I'll ask each player to describe their house and the immediate area in detail.

You hush >:E

The Sea part in particular is not guaranteed because certain Denizens demand certain attributes to their Lands, and water is a big part of one who may be making an appearance. I'm sorry, but precedence dictates certain things by which I must abide to make the session authentic.

I'll think about the Stardust part, though.

 

Kinda wanted water powers, so Sea and Stardust, but...
IDK YOU CAN PICK MY POWER i have no freaking idea


Posted my stuff.

 

but... blitz is... i'm not sure how... pffpfpffpf

Why didn't you tell meeee

Do you want a different power? If so edit your post in the OOC. I can only give you what you ask for. If you want water, make it the Heir of Tide, ok?

 

What? You didn't know I was Heir of Blitz? What? posted that list a while ago. Derp.

Also, Idk what power I want. Water is good, I guess. I kinda wanted the SING AT STUFF TILL THEY DIE power but Plums is Voice so I can't have that.
IDK, WHAT GOES WITH BLITZ?

 

No, I know that, but "Blitz" does not really entail "Water." If you want Water, you've got to tell meeee. Your Land doesn't determine your powers, your Power does!

Also, not every power is strictly offensive. "Blitz" and "Voice" both have elements of support; planning a battle strategy on the fly, or offering words of encouragement, for examples.
