The Discussion Thread

[Olha]

Korinku,

I would be interested in your role play of Dragon Riders, but I want to know what could the dragons look like. Do they have four limbs or six? Do you want them to be any kind of dragon drawing out there? What is the dragons weak spot? Are they armored both above and below with a single scale open like in the Hobbit or are they vulnerable underneath like other's have claimed? Everyone has their own ideah of what a dragon's weak and strong spots are and I think you should say what you want the dragon's weakness to be so that there is no argueing during the rp.

I hope I am helping and not stepping the boundary line.

Netta,

I have seen the FDD sites you are talking about and think it is great that you are trying to come up with one. I would be very very interested in that rp as I have a few of my own created digimon I would love to use with my own character. But I see where you are coming from in your arguement. I think Jenn's FDD site is sweet and I hope you will put out the rp soon. With that said, I will say for you to be more of your own origional. Using the shows as a refrense is great, but not all have seen Digimon. I also think you should come up with your own evolution step too. Look at the different shows. Digimon Adventure had crests, Adveture Zero Two had Armors and DNA. Digimon Tamers had biomerging with humans and Digimon Frontier had humans digivolve into digimon through the process of finding an armor spirit. I do like how you changed the crest into the card and it is a little origional, but not as good as it could be.

Again I hope I'm not stepping on boundary lines.

Thank you Olha, that was good advise thanks again.

@ Korinku: Meh, that plot is riddled with linguistic errors (E.g. 'Aloud' instead of 'allowed') and not all of it is making sense. I mean, why would these dragon owners want to help out a king who has prosecuted them thus far? I think a bit of explanation on that would be in order. You should also work on your exposition, the plot is written in a very choppy way and jumps from one thing to the other, a bit more logical development and structuring would go a long way to improve it. Furthermore, the descriptions of the dragon types are very bare and the huge pictures (Which obviously aren't your original art) give the RP a very amateurish apperance. I'd really recommend describing the physical characteristics of each species in proper written detail rather than just slapping on a picture. Electricity does not "bounce of" rubber, by the way, rubber simply doesn't conduct it and I don't really see rubber as such a big issue for a huge monstrosity with sharp claws and teeth which could rend it to pieces so easily. :\ Finally, the character classes have just been lobbed there without any explanation whatsoever. That's not cool, not everyone knows what form witchcraft takes in your world for instance, does it differ from wizardry? How does magic work in that world and how do dragons enhance it (And indeed, why would they do so?)? A lot of things in your plot seem very rushed and that will cause serious problems and confusion once the plot develops further, so I'd suggest clearing up those issues now. A pinch of prevention is worth a pound of cure, you know.

Ehh...hope it didn't sound like I just bit your head off or anything. ^^


That aside, I've actually got a plot of my own that I'd like to get comments on. It's a vaguely christmas-related one in the pokémon genre (Notice how all of the plots thus far have fallen under 'Other Roleplay'?). I've already gotten some initial comments on it, but the more the merrier so rate away.

Spoiler:

There are many regions in the world of pokémon, many vast and mysterious countries full of rare pokémon, exciting scenery, great cities, magnificent gyms and skilled trainers, evil teams seeking world domination...there are regions that have everything a budding trainer could ask for and much more.

And then...there are the regions that don't. Small, discreet backwaters with little more than pokémon centers and the occassional piece of obscure folklore or rumoured sightings of rare pokémon to their name. Boring, mundane places which no self-respecting evil organisation would even dream of overtaking for the simple reason that nobody would notice them even if they did.

Among these regions, these veritable blank spots on the world map, one has distinguished itself from amongst the rest: Eseka. This region - one of the larger 'unknown' regions of the world, located far north of the main trio of Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn - has actually managed to attract a decent amount of attention during the last few years.

Little more than the occasional groups of skiing enthusiaists and ice pokémon specialists have been known to visit Eseka. It's no wonder, considering Eseka's harsh climate, featuring short, intense summers and long, frigid winters. Its cities, although modern, are nothing to write home about, and most tourists don't see the point in braving the weather with its notoriously fierce gales to get to them.

This being the case, it obviously isn't a great level of education or a marvelous climate drawing people in. No, what has really appealed to the populace is the cultural heritage of the place. Their traditions of celebrating Christmas, to be precise. With many of the southern regions seeing little or no snowfall during winter time, and with most northern regions being uncomfortably distant - usually with even worse climates than Eseka's - the region in general has recently become a popular traveling destination for tourists, the curious, and just about anyone wishing to spend the holidays surrounded by the kind of 'genuine' winter landscape that so many songs praise.

The center of this new trend is Alvene, a rather small town handily nestled in a small valley at the crossing of two tall mountain ranges. Despite the fact that these mountains seem so intent on sealing something away from the rest of the world rather than inviting anyone in, they do provide the town - supposedly one of the oldest settlements in the region - with cover from the worst of the fierce gales which give the region's winters a bad name, making the town's climate a lot more pleasant to live in.

Not all the residents of the town are pleased with this development, however. An old Esekan tale claims that countless years ago, the region and the world as a whole came under assault by a creature from a distant realm, a terrible giant of ice who brought with him eternal darkness and winter, extinguishing all life in his wake. According to the tale, Eseka was the place in which the giant settled and from whence he then sought to spread cold and darkness across the world, and it was also in Eseka, on the very spot on which the town of Alvene was founded, where a battle of epic proportions supposedly took place between the giant and a powerful spirit of fire who had come to the aid of the humans. For three days and nights the battle raged, or so the tale goes, but eventually the fire spirit was victorious, driving back the malicious giant and sealing him deep within the earth.

The giant remains there to this day, the legend concludes, the fierce gales of winter being a sign of his struggle against the seal, and the more religiously inclined citizens of Alvene still see the yearly lighting of a giant bonfire as a ritual, a sacred duty to keep the evil locked away. They do not take kindly to having seeing this vigil cheapened for the sake of crass commercialism.

Times change, however, and most citizens have toned down their devotion to the old ways in favour of seeing the town prosper, realizing that a small - if respected - trainer school and a handful of smaller businesses aren't going to be enough to keep their beloved town on the map. Visitors are not only expected but welcomed, and with advertisements of beautiful scenery and unforgettable experiences floating about, predictions claim that the visitor count for this year will be higher than ever, despite troubling news of record low temperatures in the region.

Concerning the start-up and signing up

All characters will be expected to arrive at (or wake up in) the town of Alvene. Why they have chosen to arrive is up to you, and a short explanation will be expected in the 'History' part of the sign-up. I hope that stating the following is unnecessary, but just in case: this RP doesn't start until I have written first IC, and once it has started further applicants will not be accepted without a compelling reason and an extraordinarily good sign-up. Such sign-ups should be PMed to me, so do not post a profile here once the RP has started. Violating this will lead to your sign-up being failed immediately and permanently. Reservations will not be given unless I know that you are a good RPer, and even if I do grant you one, I will expect you to complete your sign-up before the starting date.

Rules

1. Follow all standard RP section rules.

2. No powerplaying, godmodding, or character control of any kind will be tolerated. I can't stress enough how much I hate character control. Unless the controller of the character has explicitly informed both you and me that you have permission to control his/her character then you aren't allowed to. Failure to comply with this rule may result in an immediate ban from the RP or a demand to edit the offending post(s) depending on the severity of the offense.

3. If you aren't literate, don't bother. I'll be expecting a bare minimum of four lines of legible English for every IC post. If you can't manage that then click the 'previous' button on your browser right now. Don't whine about English not being your first language, it's not mine either, not being born to a language is no excuse for not learning it properly.

4. No fourth generation. That is no 4th gen. moves, no 4th gen. damage system and certainly no 4th gen. pokémon. I swear, if I see a lame, unconfirmed pokémon name like 'Glacia' on your sheet I'm going to fail you right away. <.< As far as this RP is concerned, the 4th generation hasn't come around yet. Live with it.

Sign-up sheet

Name: (Please don't put any stupid anime rip-off like 'Edward Elric' here, I think that's about the only way to fail this one)
Age: (Early teenage and up, please. I won't have any 7-year old trainer prodigies thank you very much)
Gender:
Personality: (Please write this in proper detail. Four lines is a very bare minimum, so unless you have amazing abilities of information compressing I'll be expecting a lot more than that. Gary-Stus and Mary-Sues will be shot on sight)
Appearance: (Believe it or not, I want some detail here too. Again, four lines' minimum. Supporting pictures are allowed only if they are original art (meaning no stealing from AnimeNation) and all characteristics must be described in writing. Just as reminder: Eseka is cold, seriously cold. So put something warm on your character unless you're prepared to RP them freezing their posterior off for most of the RP.)
Pokémon: (Please note rule number four. Also, no legendaries, fakemon or fully evolved competitive-class teams. Experienced trainers are allowed, but no friggen' trainer gods, elite fours, gym leaders, league champions or other ridiculous stuff. Also, I'll be expecting at least four lines of personality and history for each pokémon. Drone pokémon will not be tolerated.)
History: (Again, put some effort into it. You don't need to go into detail, but at the very least give a brief overview of your character's life and a word or two about how and why they ended up in Alvene.)
Other: (Anything about the character that you need to get of your chest? Here's where you do it, but no ridiculous stuff like superhuman powers.)
RP Sample: (And just when you thought the worst was over...this is the most important field in the whole sign-up so give it your best. Samples from your earlier RPing are accepted, but please take them from a pokémon-related RP if you do, otherwise it will be difficult for me to judge if your skills are suitable. Fresh samples involving the character you're signing up are strongly encouraged and can compensate for lacks in the other fields, so think about it. ^^)

I wrapped it in 'spoiler' tags because it's...how do you say...vertically gifted. Yes, I think that term will do. xD

 

[YoshiRiRu]

Alter: Er.. This is really hard. I don't know how to criticize your RP's. They're just really good. The only thing that leaves me a bit troubled is the sort of lack of direction. I don't see any real objective. I mean, okay, we're in this town in this freezing place, so what? The Ice Giant legend sort of addresses that aspect, but it seems like the "only a legend" thing, which is to be brought out if things start to get monotonous. I'm really splitting hairs here, trying to y'know, find someway to criticize it. Very well written, as usual. Good job!

 

[Alter Ego]

@YoshiRiRu:Nyah, about the lack of direction thing...pfiffle...how to answer this without spoiling my game? Ah...I know...spoiler tags to the rescue! ^^

Spoiler:

Big, honkin' spoiler, folks, proceed only if your life depends on it.

Spoiler:

I've actually got a plan - the ice giant legend is only a subtle hint - don't worry about that, I just don't want to give my game away in the intro, as that would kind of hurt the drama. Suffice to say that the legend...will have its consequences later on. Mmmmyeeess...

I sure love my spoiler tags. For those who didn't check them (As if you all didn't jump on the chance) I've got plans to counter any aimlessness. Anyone who's RPed with me in charge will tell you that I'm too much of a control freak not to prod my RPers along the right track. xD Thanks for commenting. ^^

 

[Scarlet Weather]

Hmmm... I'm back, and I'm just as evil as before. Meh, but I missed the sign-up date for the One Piece RP due to someone else taking my character's devil fruit, school, and working on my humour fic. I'm also a bit lazy feeling at the moment... but I'll commment!

Korinku: Needs way more depth. Waaayyy more depth. Why the heck are dragons obeying people if they were "captured"? Why the heck did whatsisface want to control the dragon population if they need more dragons? By the way, I agree with AE... "rubber" is not a good weakness. Well, unless somebody were to join as Monkey D. Luffy... but why anyone would do that is beyond me.

Alter_Ego: I bow to your superior roleplay skills! CREATE IT! CREATE IT! CREATE- *is shot with dart by literacy cops* Dang... gotta learn to control my caps lock angst.

And, I thought you meant ALL the article's. I was about to say, 'Even I haven't read all the article's...

I just finished. Heh, heh....

 

[Loki]

CAPS LOCK IS WIN.

*shoots the caps lock button*

Anywhooooo Alter! (I do think I'll call you Alter. Do you care if I call you Alter?): Yeah, seriously what Yoshi said, x_x *Darn you and your ph33r skills!* Umm, it says wake up or arrive in Alvene, and also "State a reason to be there". Would that include 'I live there'? xD Or are people not allowed to live in Eseka or Alvene in general? That's something that was tugging at the hem of my skirt while I read. I might be repeating what Yoshi said, but yeah, there doesn't seem to be much conflict revealed in the plot itself, other then people are forgetting the legend or the such. Perhaps you could describe what Alvene looks like in general? Like, is it a modern super high-tech place, a barbaric place with the houses still made of twigs and straw, or just like your normal Pokemon Town iced with snow?

Yeah, after about ten minutes of straining, that's about all that I can squeeze out that might possibly be wrong with your plot. xD I dunno if you said this already or not (might've missed it) but is Eseka an island? That's the impression I'm under anyway. ^^

So yeah! And Art Critic, I'm still accepting LSU's if you want, you just can't be apart of the crew yet. You can be a freelance though. ^^ Discuss this with me in the OOC thread if you have any more questions.

Korinku: I'll join as Monkey D. Luffy!! *shot* *Bullet stretch arm and richochets* *...stabbed* Those dragons are nice and all, and I know it's a pain to describe things like Alter Ego suggested, even though it's probably the most effective way, you could...A) Do what Alter said, B) Look up different dragon types on an encyclopedia website and simply assign certain colors to them, or C) Make those images into links, because links are cleaner the IMG tags, even if they take longer to do. ^^

 

[Alter Ego]

@Art_Critic_Cubone: Learning control indeed, put those big caps down right now, you might hurt someone. My planned release date is the 22nd of December, since that's when school ends, so you'll just have to hold your Horseas until then. ^_~ *Shot for lame pokémon metaphor*

@Bijou: Nyah, Alter is fine. In fact, I'm okay with every abbrevation or general wrangling of my username except for Ego. *Is waiting to see who the first smart-alec around here is* (< This comment will make sense if what I suspect will occur) But yeah, it's true that the resident thing could be clearer. I don't mind locals (Heck, I'll be playing one myself xD), so they're all well and good (Although having a completely local cast would be a bit too much). As for Alvene...well, I already mentioned that all cities in the region are of pretty average modernity (Yes, they have running water, electricity and whatnot) and any description of the town in particular that I tried to put in just made the plot look...awkward somehow. o.O I'll go into detail about Alvene's appearance in my starting IC anyway, so yish. Finally, Eseka is a region in itself, so I'd say either a big island (Since it does have two mountain ranges on it) or a smallish continent. Not quite Hoenn size, but still pretty big. Ehh...maybe I need to clarify the region description a bit.

Anyways, thanks for the comments and encouragement, everyone. It really does help. ^^

 

[RentCavalier]

Dragons and the capturing of them seems a tad cliche to me.

I mean, not that cliche is neccessarily bad, but I'm constantly trying to find some other avenue to use Dragons that isn't cliche.

Are there any good, original methods of Dragon use in a plot? Or have all avenues been used up?

I ponder this...

 

[Shiney]

OOC: One of several brainchild's I've been working on, this is pretty much a combination of tons of tiny role-play ideas I've had over the last few months, and super glued them all together. I'd like any constructive criticism, but right now, I'm working on refining the story and trying to think of plot events.

All the lands of the humankind were peaceful from recorded history, with only minor border skirmishes from time to time to hint at human nature, and only the best relation with the golden elves of the southern seas. Before I begin with our tale, perhaps a bit of information on the homeland of humans would be in order.

The Continent, each called by various names by each country, is divided into a number of basic regions. The northern range is vastly inhospitable mountains, perceived to be barren of all but the most hardy, and simple of life. And for the most part, this mountain range extends down the western border of the land, all the way to the coast, providing a highly effective defense.

On the southernmost border of the Northern Range, A species of human has clung to life where most claim it to be impossible, with a mixture of their magic and science. The "High" Humans, "Ascended" Humans, and "Angels" as they are variously called have an advanced, if slightly racist society, these beings as fair, and as noble as elves are reputed to be, but with a rare gift. They're great, nearly oversized wings allowing for flight through the sky itself, though making conventional travel slightly more tedious, compared to other human races.

Occupying the greatest space of the land, the Empire of humanity exists all along the great plains, and mighty forests. These are the humans that you and I know. They had formed a great and benevolent empire, spanning the cities, ports, and settlements all across the massive expanses of land, and to the great eastern Sea.

The southern lands are considered by some to be the most exotic, but also the harshest in their ways. In the southwest, there is a relatively small nation, with no official name, or government. They are simply referred to as "Dragon folk" Or "People of the Dragon" Or any number of kind and unkind comparisons between them, and the magical creatures. They are fiercely territorial, and obviously have a great deal of secrets to keep. As one time, you may visit the land of the Dragon, and find a desert range there, and two years later, you could come back to the same spot, and find yourself in a jungle. The dragon people protect their secrets as a dragon does it's hoard.

Lastly, starting at the eastern edge of the southern area of the continent, but swelling out to envelope the entire southern area, the Southern Reaches is but one mass of deserts, ranging from rocky, to white sand dunes. The people of this land are unique, ranging from nearly Elvin in appearance, to human, to the bestial two-legged cat. From what would seem a house cat like any other, apart form its startling intelligence, and sharp tongue, to the massive war tigers of the South. the Ohmes are as various as the imagination itself, their form depending on a number of factors relating to the weather, the stars, moon phases, the time of year, and many other factors, creating a nigh-infinitely complex system that is rarely understood outside of Ohmes civilization. These people have no true strict government, but seem largely uninterested in the rest of the world at large, focusing on making their way on their own.

Now, with that out of the way, a minor explanation of recent events. Recently, within the Empire, a small group of knights, no larger than four had managed to pay a relatively minor wizard to send them into one of the many planes outside of our world. In their search for holy relics, they lingered longer than the spell could hold, and no longer anchored to any dimension, they were as flies within a whirlwind, caught up in travel through Time and Space, Existence and Ether.It was two years when the knights found their way to their homeland. And they were deeply changed for their experiences. The Knights of the Thorn were now the Knights of Ebony Sky. they were completely colorless, aside from their apparel, which was a bright, disconcerting maroon.

Moreover, they were no longer human. Where the Knights had been but normal people they came back nearly immortal. Their somehow could resist magicka of all kinds, and were imbued in body, mind, and soul with great prowess, seemingly becoming demigods. Worse than that, was their ability to spread. Overnight, more and more people became the same sort as the knights, and they quickly became the "Arm of the Empire" though it was the empire itself that had been subdued. And thus, they set forth, grimly executing their idea of "justice" upon the people, and those who did not agree with such ideas never lived long enough to voice more than a protest. Resistances in many places set up, but there isn't any force than can hold out within the empire against these foes for long.

It is our newfound duty, as a group of travelers, merchants, warriors, mages, whatever you fancy yourself to be, as one of the humans, Ohmes, or Angels within the empire to seek the aid of the other nations in purging the empire of these malevolent occupiers, before they can threaten all of humankind.

 

[Loki]

This may possibly be the longest RP plot I've ever written- and the one that took the longest, ironically. (Sarcasm on the ironically.) There's something about it that just bothers me. Maybe it's the lack of a base or a sturdy plot (Or maybe it's the canon characters...) but I dunno what's wrong with it. I'd love some help on it. ^^ Or maybe it's the useless information on The Shinigami Academy. I dunno, I kept changing my mind, because I wanted a Shinigami Academy RP, but I also wanted us to fight real Hollows and use Zanpakutoh's with names...


Bleach: The Mastermind [Not yet Rated]
-------------------------------

The Shinigami Academy. A place full of proud histories, different people, and successful shinigami students. For many years, and hopefully more to come, this academy was left peaceful as compared to the rest of Seireitei, with a few nasty incidents on field work that were all handled professionally and properly. Souls from all the different Rukongai, and souls that resided in Seireitei flocked to this school, to learn Kidou, demon arts, Zanjutsu, swordsmanship, and sometimes even Hakuda, hand-to-hand combat and Hohou foot combat. All of these souls flocked to become Shinigami, battling hollows and working their way up the ranks, into Gotei 13. It is our dearest pleasure to welcome you to this school, and we hope that you will help us uphold the reputation of the Shinigami Academy.

For spirits newer to Soul Society's references, we have assembled a number of definitions you will need to know for the future of your occupation here at our prestiged academy.

Shinigami: Shinigami are purely spiritual beings. As such they can only be seen by other spiritually aware entities, which excludes most humans. Shinigami naturally give off spiritual force (reiatsu), which varies greatly in magnitude with the strength of the shinigami. Travel between the human world and Soul Society is extremely limited and monitored, but some shinigami are stationed in the human world to carry out their duties, and therefore must often travel between the two. In addition, it is a crime for a shinigami to remain in the human world longer than a certain time limit. A shinigami's duties include leading Pluses (ghosts) to Soul Society in a practice called soul burial (konsō), and the cleansing of hollows (evil spirits).

Hollows: A hollow is a plus spirit that has lost its heart, and is driven to devour others (both living and dead) to fill that void. Starting out as a standard human ghost, the transformation into a hollow warps the ghost into a uniquely monstrous form, though all hollows wear a vaguely skeletal mask and have an obvious hole in their bodies. Any Plus spirit that is not guided to Soul Society by a shinigami may eventually descend into a hollow. The process normally takes months or years as the Chain of Destiny slowly corrodes, reflecting the warping of the ghost's ties to the living world. However, the process may be accelerated under certain conditions (such as the attack of another hollow or through the use of certain spiritual powers).

Zanpakutou: Most zanpakutō in their sealed form look like katanas, but the shape and form varies by the person. Zanpakutō are not just weapons, but also sentient beings. They are a shinigami's partner in battle and while they can regenerate if broken, they cannot be replaced. As a shinigami gains power, the zanpakutō can change form by allowing the inner being to manifest itself to a greater degree in the outside world. The sword and the inner being are synonymous to each other. It has also been revealed that since zanpakutō are created with the shinigami, they also tend to have a personality based on their owners. Zanpakutō are used to fight hollows and other shinigami as well as to liberate or help pluses ascend to Soul Society.

For as long as time, Hollows have been bad, and Shinigami have been good. Hollows, were the evil spirits that wreaked havoc, and Shinigami, were the spirits who stopped them. Shinigami resided in Soul Society, Seireitei to be exact, and Hollows, in Hueco Mundo.

We give you our sincerest thanks and wish you a wonderful six years here at The Shinigami Academy.

---------------------------------

This roleplay takes place 30 years after the events of Bleach. For unexplainable reasons, a surplus of Hollows have been appearing, all of them as powerful as the next. You are apart of the 6th round of students in the Shinigami academy, and apart of a number of students who have shown exemplary skills and abilities. Due to the greater number of Hollows as compared to the Shinigami, you are asked on various missions while still keeping up with your work as a 6th round student. You are currently at the lowest level of Shinigami, unable to call your Zanpakutoh's name just yet, but still powerful enough to stand against regular Hollows.

---------------------------

Rules:
1) At least three posts before you learn your Zanpakutoh's name.
2) If I decline you, don't bother editing. You're declined, end of story.
3) This is mean, I'm sorry, but I can't RP comfortably with certain members, therefore, you will be declined regardless, unless I absolutely adore your sign-up. (Not likely. 0.000001% chance of happening.)
4) FOLLOW PC RULES FOR CRYIN OUT LOUD.
5) Original Zanpakutou's, I beg of you. I don't want any Zangetsu's or Wabisuke's or Zabimaru's or whatever.
6) Unlike my One Piece RP, I do not require you to know a bunch of crap for this RP. As long as you read-up a fair amount on Wiki, enough so that you don't trip all over yourself during the RP, you may join.

NEW YEARS RP
Naruto
Akatsuki and Orichimaru's plan​

Spoiler:

As Orichimaru's plan to take Sasuke's body and have the sharingan began to come into place, akatsuki was starting to finish their plan to seal the six tailed beasts. As Orichimaru thought, he began to learn something and that was that once he obtains the sharingan and starts to copy different justu's, he may be strong enough to defeat Itachi and take his body. Plus his sharingan would be perfected and Orichimaru would become even more powerful. But, Orichimaru would not be able to find Itachi so easily. Looking back into his memories, Orichimaru headed to akatsuki's headquarters to see if they left any information on their whereabouts and instead found plans to kidnap Naruto and Gaara. Orichimaru knew why they had wanted them and could care less. As Orichimaru searched around the seemingly abandoned headquarters, he had actually stayed long enough to meet up with Deidara and Tobi who seemed to have come to find their plans to kidnap the two demond kids.

Orichimaru asked if they would let him join again and Tobi began to laugh hysterically. Deidara then looked at Tobi angrily and Tobi stopped. They began to question him about why he wanted to come back and if he was planing anything against akatsuki. Orichimaru then told them that he did have one plan and that it was to destroy Konoha. The two teammates didn't seem to care and asked why they should help him with his plan, for they did not care what happens to konoha. Orichimaru ended the conversation by telling them to just bring it up with their leader and to tell him that he could help him find the demond boys. They decided to ask their leader and to their surprise he said that Orichimaru was free to join akatsuki again only if he really could help find Naruto and Gaara. Orichimaru was very pleased and was even open to the idea of actually destroying konoha with akatsuki's help. Orichimaru did have one problem though and that was that he had to keep all of this stuff about akatsuki away from Sasuke or else his plan to get the perfected sharingan and destroy Konoha would be foiled.

Back in Konoha, it is a new year with new students at the academy and old students on high rank missions. After a couple of weeks, reports of akatsuki sights began to come up. As Tsunade looked into this, she was unsure if akatsuki was up to something or not. She began to wonder if Orichimaru had something going on. But she couldn't be to sure about that so she got a group of ninja to search around for clues to indicate whether akatsuki and Orichimaru are working together but because there where so many ninja already on missions she did not have much to choose from. Tsunade knew that akatsuki was very dangerous and put much thought into who she sent on this mission and those people where, Kiba Inuzuka, Hinata hyuga, Neji Hyuga, Shino Aburame, Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, and Choji Akimichi. This group was formed based on being able to find things with ease, being able to be quick on your feat, strong, and not too hasty.

Tsunade was really worried about sending kids on a mission that had something to do with akatsuki she also sent Jiraiya for the wisdom that he has enenthough he is sometimes pretty foolish. After about another week, the group found two spike like bells and nothing more. Tsunade knew that the bells where from the straw hats that akatsuki members wear and could not ignore all of this. She knew that there was still a lack of ninjas now because it was the time of year where the academy students get their sensie's but she got who she could. Tsunade knew that this team would need a good medical ninja so she chose Sakura Haruno and even Shizune since she was more skilled at being a medical ninja.

She also chose Neji, Hinata, Shino, Kiba, Ino, Shikamaru, Choji, Tenten, Lee, Jiraiya and last but not least, Naruto. Back at the academy, the students (Who ever signs up) are in a training session that will make a big impact on the teams that they are in. Tsunade is hoping that these kids are very powerful and smart for she wants to have them help with this mission. Though very hard, there is power in numbers. She is planning to have their senies push them really hard, to teach them as much as they can.

Whee! Review time!
●●●●
Bijou: Well, one thing that I absoulutely LOVE is the rules. You get rid of the bad role-players and all that jazz. I would definately join the role-play, I even know a lot about Bleach too, to make it easier. Your plot for the role-play is pretty interesting, but a bit confusing. So the first part is fighting all the Hollows, and later maybe take down Aizen and his groupies? ● hates Aizen so much, though Gin is not in this hating circle, I think I'm day dreaming and rambling now ● You gave the ones new to Bleach an overview of what they need to know and it'll go to more experienced 'Bleach-ness" sign-ups.

Something about is disturbs me too; its probably the plot, not enough detail on what we'll do after we take down the Hollows.
●●●●
Korinku: I have some questions for the plot; why would they take Orochimaru right away? Orochimaru betrayed Akatsuki and in episode 135, They were distincly planning on killing Orochimaru. And why would Deidara and Tobi laugh? I get Tobi, but my Dei~kun wouldn't laugh in his Akatsuki-ish life. And also, what is the basic plot? I know that we are academy students, but what are we going to do really?

Yay~ Mikuru-chan would join! Yeah, I've had some sticky experiences with roleplayers that fit the banned things on my rules. (Gin is love. Hisagi is love. Basically all the Bleach claimings I've got is love. xD Kira! Kira is love. Kira reminds me of Dei-chan, just... not in personality.)

Yeah, the "after-the-hollows" thing would be for me to know, and maybe another person, but it's supposed to be a secret. *shhhh* Anywho, the question right now isn't, "What happens after" it's, "Will we ever get there?" xDD

Thanks for the feedback though, at least I'm not the only one who thinks something's weird. Just don't want to tell the world what's going on since it's supposed to be a mystery. *shhh-ot*

-----------------------------

Actually, I might do something completely different. :/ I'm not so sure I like the plot anymore. I think it'll be a lot easier if we're all just Captains and Lieutenants. And it'll be a lot more fun to be powerfrill. >) I'll have to think something up again though. *scraps the first one*

*stares*

Egad! A mod has double posted mistakenly! The end of the chatroom is coming! *is beaten into pulp by army of crazy ninjas*

Bijou: Good job with the plot as usual. I'd say "I want to join!" but I really don't want to. I'm also procrastinating with my LSU for your One Piece rp. Yeah, I'm a lazy freak. Hit me.

Korinku: No laughing Deidara. Deidara would let Tobi laugh for a minute, then kill him. Get rid of the descriptions of why the teams were picked.

 

[Loki]

I double posted?!? *frig!!* Actually it's because my internet is being crap right now. It's making PC disappear. ;_;

I can't even see your post, so I have to post again. I'll edit with on topic-ness after I'm able to see your post.

Editz: Okay I see it now, and thanks...I think. o o; Your LSU won't be accepted if you wait much longer. < <;;

Korinku: I didn't read your post, but Deidara...laughing....as in like, friendly laugh? That's a disturbing thought. It's good to keep canon characters in-character, even in an RP. It's professional, and you get compliments for keeping them in character. <3

It twas edited, I got rid of the part explaining why they where chosen for the mission and I also gave a reason for why akatsuki brought him back. I hope it's better.



P.S. I purposely put twas.

I had it ready a while back actually, but my Mom deleted it. I need to rewrite the whole thing, and it's a little past the part where my character would fit in at the moment, so I need to edit as well. Bear with me.

I really do hate to nag, but out of idle curiosity, did anyone have any thoughts on my roleplay idea? It's near the end of page three, but with bell's new plot and all, I cna see how it'd be easy to miss. X3
