Wow. You just pounced on my post. Fastest reply ever.
Coincidence xD when I'm excited about an RP, I tend to check on the thread ALOT.

Quote:

As for your character, I like it. He has a punny name that is significant to his character, a likable backstory, and is interestingly flawed. My character would disagree with his "no need to learn combat skills in a time of peace" philosophy, but my guy's a bit of a blood knight. What interesting interactions we shall have...
Glad you liked it. I honestly wanted to be a Human type character and go all super saiyan on everyone. xD But I decided to do everyone a favour and add a Blizzarian to the RP. xP At first, I felt like I was sacrificing the fun from me. But as I began to write and get ideas for my character. I warmed up to him. And now I'm even more excited. :P

Also, this might disappoint you but, the philosophy "no need to learn combat skills in a time of peace" belong to his parents. My character constantly thinks about fighting, just like everyone else. It's our lives. xD That's why we're entering a tournament. Although, I do think their encounter will be somewhat interesting. Your character hates weaklings, my character is a weakling. xD But he'll grow strong sooner or later. One things for sure. My character won't be winning this tournament. xD And I don't think the tournament will reach the end anyway. Someone might make a stupid wish like, "reviving an ancient god."

I like how Jeriba wants to take responsibility for the trouble his ancestors have caused *cough*kingpiccolo*cough*, but he's all cool about it and easy going.

Any commentary on ma "Kazuki Silver" Character? I like to have very odd and unusual characters...
As for your character. I think his background is interesting, and definitely likely to happen if DBZ was in fact, continued. Plus, he uses dual blades. xD That's definitely a first, and it shows the resemblance to his father. I think your character was the closest to who my human character was going to be. Except, my human character was going to be a shameful self-insertion. I tend to do that a lot. xD

Edit: I have a bad habit of making little faces between sentences a lot. xD <<<like this... I hope it doesn't annoy everyone. But don't worry, none of that in the RP. xP

Who else thinks this is awesome?

Groc October 19th, 2011 7:26 PM

Thank you for the feedback, Nam.

As for Kazuki, he resembles an interesting blend of Trunks and Yamcha. On the one hand, he is very similar to his father, a calm, morally upright man with strong convictions and a sense of honor. On the other, he shares Yamcha's wild past and tenacity, drawing inspiration from the creature that his life so resembles. Plus, I find the thought of wolves teaching a boy martial arts to be hilarious. Kazuki is another character who will either be good friends or bitter rivals with Jeriba.

Just out of curiosity, can I call you Todd? It's confusing, you sharing a name with your character.

And when do we get to see Nideous' character?

Nam October 19th, 2011 7:39 PM

It seems Nideous' character is gonna remain a mystery for us until the RP starts. He apparently sent his SU to Game Over via private message or something. Anyway, I think tomorrow we might be able to start the RP cause the only one left is Pokemongarnet. I hope he/she's almost done with the SU. ><

Thank you, and I wanted to show my Saiyan roots with a legitimate background behind it, I'm glad it was accepted that way. I might be the most Saiyan in the RP so far :P Unles, of course, Daddy shows up... XD On that note, I think, soon, Kazuki will learn Burning Attack, Buster Cannon, Sonic Blades Attack (Variation of Sonic Sword Attack) and Shining Blades Attack (His variation of Shining Sword Attack). I feel like I made him more of a Yamcha than a Trunks. Personality-wise, yes, he's trunks. It seems he's compared to Yamcha because of the Wolf Fang Fist as well as the "trained by Wolves" thing. I actually wasn't intending on it, but it goes along with Kazuki's lack of parental guidance. Instead, he was adopted into a pack of wolves and they treated him like the family he never had. On that note, a minor ability of Kazuki's is the ability to communicate with animals. No, not with words, but more like motions, and noises. I want him to have more Trunks-based moves, because he would be a natural at it, because of his father. Oh yeah, and unlike Yamcha, Kazuki wouldn't have a panic attack anytime there's a girl around... XD

Ahhh, where was I... Oh yes. Trust me, my characters are much more intricate than sign-ups reveal...

Yes, he is very much like his father. Who knows, maybe his mother was related to Yamcha in some way XD ... Oh yes, Kazuki takes honor to extremes. And his past is still somewhat similar to Future Trunks', in that he did not really see his father, (or his mother in this case). And the "trained by wolves, learned martial arts" was not really a joke. And there literally IS a "Wolf Style" of Martial arts, but it is literally almost unheard of. I've tried researching it before, and very little showed up. The idea that he learned his fighting, and even his blasts, from animals, goes into the idea that he can "analyze his opponents in battle, and use it to his advantage". This can also add the idea that after any battle he could learn another new move that his opponent had used. Also, he can learn his opponent's weaknesses as the battle progresses. And no, you may not call me Todd. You may call me Shayde, if it really bugs you so much that I named my character after my username. As for enemy or rival? Kazuki has many great abilities for fighting, but his personality is one that only fights as a last resort, and he is generally kind to most everyone he meets. This also goes along very well with his deep honor. He is very polite as well, bowing upon introduction to others. Though, he is somewhat of a loner, and usually won't confront others. Instead, he waits until someone confronts him. Oh yeah, and he might enjoy the occasional practice-fight, as long as you don't take it too far. Training does not mean epic death-match you guys XD

Again, I'd like to add that the "adopted family" Kazuki was in (that pretty much ignored him) could possibly be the family of another RP member. All you'd have to do is fit it into your History section.





ALERT
So, you guys really liked my RP / Character creation? I've been hoping and working towards the "Best Sign-Up" award, and I want some feedback. What could I improve on? What did I do, good and bad?

HunterZero October 20th, 2011 8:00 AM

Reserve me a spot please as Human. So looking forward to this.

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 9:37 AM

@ HunterZero: Unfortunately, all the spots are either taken or have been reserved. Therefore you have not been reserved. If pokemongarnet doesn't have a SU up by Sunday though, I will gladly take your reservation.

@ EVERYONE: Be proud of your characters. They are quite believable and very well done. I'm proud to be your GM for this RP. Oh, and thanks for the feedback on Paci.

@ Kazuki: You SU is great. You might get that award if you keep on making amazing characters for other RPs. However, don't make that the only reason why you're making SUs. That would be a waste of a character. And who said that your character is going to be the closest thing to a Saiyan in this RP? :P

@ Nam: If you want to be technical about it... Majin Buu IS still alive. This RP takes place two thousand years after the events of Dragonball GT. Now, does anyone remember what happened to Majin Buu in Dragonball GT? :D

@ EVERYONE: You are all correct. Nideous' character won't be shown until we start the RP and do a few things. Also, you might want to take a look at the front page. I added a few things in the races section as well as the SU. Be smart about your decisions. For those with complete SUs, don't worry. You are still accepted. If you could just please add that one thing, I would be grateful.

Thank you. And of course I'm not doing this only for Sign-Ups... I'm very picky in which RP's I join, and I'm excited to use my characters. Also, Skymin trained me afterward, so my next Sign-up, wherever it is, should hopefully be much better. As it turns out I had made many a flaw. And I was saying my RP player seems like the most direct descendant. Since you went through this in the plot (how their saiyan blood is so diluted that they can't grow tails). I'm not sure if Future Trunks has a tail, or he just cuts it off, but Kazuki Silver will not grow a tail, even if he is a quarter-saiyan. And I was only speaking of the Sign-Ups... Are you implying that yours, or maybe that hidden PM Sign-up, has more than a quarter of Saiyan Blood?

Nideous October 20th, 2011 11:39 AM

Game, should I enlighten them? Or should I let them stew until we officially begin?

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 12:15 PM

@ Nideous: Let them stew my brother. Let them stew until we officially begin. XD

@ Kazuki: It is generally assumed by the Dragonball community that Future Trunks' tail was removed when he was born and every time it grew back until he became an adult. At that point, it just didn't grow back. It is also assumed that quarter-saiyans cannot grow tails, since we don't see Pan have one at any point in the series. *shrug*

As for my character, Paci is a full-blooded Majin. Check the front page if you haven't seen her yet. :P As for Nideous' PM SU, that is for Nideous and I to know and for everyone else to find out. :P Anyways, yes, your character is the closest to a full-blooded Saiyan among the SUs.

かずき Kazuki October 20th, 2011 12:41 PM

And I suppose mine is also the most closesly linked to the Dragonball storyline, correct?

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 12:50 PM

@ Kazuki: Hm... Yeah, I guess that would be a safe assumption. ;) Oh, and thank you for adding that one thing to your SU. :)

かずき Kazuki October 20th, 2011 12:53 PM

No problem... Any idea when We'll get to start this thing?

pokemongarnet October 20th, 2011 12:54 PM

urgh, I want to withdraw my reservation... I just don't wan't to drag this RP down, because I'll probably find little time to keep up... Sorry.

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 1:10 PM

@ pokemongarnet: I'm sorry to hear that. In any case, I hope you keep an eye on it as the RP goes. As of now, your reservation has been dropped.

@ Kazuki: I plan on starting Monday, unless someone gets a SU up today or tomorrow. In which case, we will start either tomorrow or Saturday. XD

@ HunterZero: Due to recent events, you are now reserved. Please, I beg of you, have a complete SU up by Sunday. If you don't, then your reservation will be dropped.

HunterZero October 20th, 2011 1:22 PM

Thanks GameOver I will don't worry probably have it up Friday night or Saturday morning.

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 1:32 PM

@ HunterZero: Don't mention it playa. XD Sorry if it seems like I'm rushing ya or anything.

Nam October 20th, 2011 1:39 PM

I was actually hoping we could RP today, but meh.. xP I'm just so damn excited ><

Also, it seems mostly everyone has chosen Instant Learn. I don't know which to get.. ><
What happened to Majin Buu in DBGT? I don't remember.. O.o I searched it. Now I remember.. Majin Buu fused with Uub, and formed Majuub. Majuub is dead because Baby reflected the Chocolate Beam and crushed them. That idiot... wasted a perfectly good chocolate. If he was going to turn them into chocolate he might as well eat it... SHEESH >.> *SHOT*

About Trunks and Goten having a tail. I don't think they have ever been revealed in the anime with one. But I'm sure they were just cut off because they were both half-saiyans, same as Gohan; who in fact, did have a tail. They were simply more careful about it with Trunks and Goten and removed the tail. First, because of their new point of view. Vegeta used to think his tail made him stronger, but after his defeat by Goku. He realised his tail was nothing but a burden, a weakness. Plus, they didn't want to risk having to save the world everytime there was a full moon.

Groc October 20th, 2011 1:44 PM

And now we wait. I too have added the missing piece to my SU.

I love how reclusive Nideous is being. He baits us by hiding, then letting us stew. And when we have eaten the bait and stewed for a while, our full flavor can develop, and his SU will shock and surprise us! For now, it is but a shadowy figure, laughing at us from the shadows, staring, waiting, whispering "Soon..."

Nideous October 20th, 2011 1:46 PM

Oh, I'm still here. I've just been talking to other people and doing other things. :D

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 1:52 PM

@ Nam: That's just how the cookie crumbles playa. *shrug* Anyways, Instant Learning is a great ability. The people who choose to have Instant Learning must remember that they can't learn the other abilities either, including me. XD If it makes you feel any better, Nideous has choosen Energy Absorption for his character, while I'm sure -DeepImpact- will choose Instant Transmission, since that's a part of his character's ultimate attack. *shrug*

As much as I would like to discuss with you about theories on the DB series, I must ask for everyone not to, unless it is for a question. Don't want this filled with stuff not related to the RP.

@ Godzil: Yeah, Nideous has been doing really well with keeping his character hidden. ^o^

HunterZero October 20th, 2011 1:55 PM

I have a quick question about Humans to me it somewhat sounds like most people are like Half-Saiyan or something could I get more clarification (BTW if someone already asked this just ignore me)

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 2:15 PM

@ HunterZero: No human will be half-saiyan in this RP (well... except for some characters that I plain on bringing into this later). Humans just now have saiyan blood running through their veins, but it is heavily diluted, due to no other Saiyans having been on the planet for two thousand years. The one exception to this is Kazuki's character. Check on the first page for that SU. Just note that Kazuki is going to be the only exception for this RP.

And don't worry. I like questions being asked now before the RP actually begins. :)

Humans aren't half-saiyans; they're 2,000tieth-saiyans. xD
A half-saiyan is the son of a Pure Saiyan and a Human. What happens when a Half-Saiyan mates with a Human? The saiyan genes begin to drown under the dominant human genes. Now imagine this happening for 2000 years. That's what this is. They have saiyan blood, but they're not as strong; although, definitely stronger than the humans of the past. I imagine guns would be obsolete. In theory they can transform into Super Saiyan 1, 2, and 3; but never 4, they don't grow tails anymore.

Game Over1375 October 20th, 2011 2:19 PM

@ Nam: Wow... Thanks for explaining that. Did a better job than I did. O.O And yes, guns are now obsolete. Oh, and did you happen to figure out what happened to Majin Buu in DBGT? :D

Oh sorry, I didn't see your post. :P I must've been writing mine when you submitted this. Also, don't spoil it. >< "(well... except for some characters that I plain on bringing into this later)." I think I know exactly who you mean... T_T And I was expecting it too.
