History and writing

History (2 or more paragraphs): Born in Antarctica she was raised there until her 5th birthday. when looking out over the frozen rocks she saw a strange boat floating upon the cold sea. she ran and warned her tribe. on the fourth day of the ships arrival her mother told her to board the ship, and steal the food. when she arrived the ship looked empty climbing aboard she gathered the food. as she left the cargo and surfaced she then realized that her lands were now across a small patch of ocean and the frozen rock bobbed up and down. the ship had set sail.

the ship had been filled with men from England. a rich noble took her in as his child since his own wife and daughter died at birth. he was strict and mean, raising her to be his version of perfect. him being a dog demon she learned a more formal life style then her parents would have preferred. at her most recent birthday party her father heard of a trip going to japan. quickly she opted to join. and 9 months later she arrived...

Roleplaying sample (2 or more paragraphs)OPTIONAL: looking out over the railings at the alarm the sailors were making she saw the little island country. she could see the gaping colors and blinked. it was dazzling. she smiled inwardly.
" your father says your free to roam the lands while were here my lady." an unimportant slave whispered to me his head bowed deeply as he bowed. he looked like he might tip over.
nodding her head she lifted her hand and grabbed the railing. just as the ship lurched to a sudden hard stop. the slave fell forward with a gasp, silly human. a loud creek rang out within the ship. she sighed then lifted her head to yell.
"we've just struck a reef! someone check below the deck to see if the ship is broken in anyway. YOU." she said suddenly her eyes on the slave. "if there is damage retrieve all my belongings asap."
the slave stood up and bowed. she brushed past him and jumped over the edge of the ship landing on a pink coral reef. oh how wonderful the ships gonna sink because of pink, just peachy. she wandered off the reef and onto the land. its soft squishy sands warmed her feet. its nice to b on stable ground. if not hard. she then walked towards the forest wondering what this land may be like and what new adventures await her.

1.: welcome to the forum

2.: very interesting character, I like her slightly controversial personality. However, I would advise you to think over some things:

- she seems illogically old (1015 years ?!). While demons do live long, don't you think this is an exaggeration ? If we wish to make it logical, and roleplay in the time of Inuysha's era (Sengoku era, mid-16th century) numerically means she was born sometime after the fall of the Western Roman Empire

- her powers could use a bit more detail. Most player like to know what they can expect from a partner's chatacter should an adventure end in a duel.

- you should be very, very careful with picking powers which influence the feelings of other Player Characters. It can easily end up in violating "power-gaming" rules (taking 'control' over the characters of others without their permission) unless you closely cooperate with your RP partner(s).

Anyway, I'm no admin, just the most 'senior' roleplayer on the site, so take what I wrote as 'advices'

thanks i fixed what u suggested feel free 2 tell me what u think about the new real age and the darkness power.

[morrisb]

Thanks for considering my recommendations.

- 237 years... (calculates) so she was picked up by an english ship in the early 14th century and lived with her new 'father' for over two centuries without aging on the outside... one would think some people would become suspicious of her/their demonic heritage after so much time*... but I think that's an a-okay category. It leaves much space open for her life in england and during travels, which may be beneficial in a roleplay.

- her powers are more or less okay now, too. Maybe just a couple of little details. In particular: can items consumed with her 'Void' spell be recovered, and if yes, how ? Can magical items resist her 'Void' spell** ?

- lastly (I kinda forgot to ask this last time): is her dagger magical, or is simply well-decorated ?

*NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH ROMAN INQUISITION !!!
**people who cast demon-hunter main characters (like me) who utilize anti-demon, 'sacred' weapons are the ones to be concerned with this detail.
