RULES AND TOPIC PURPOSE, READ BEFORE POSTING:

Spoiler: rules (click to show/hide)

This is an RP hub topic, taking place in the same multiverse/setting as the VN wars, Strifes fortress, the Bay12 resort, etc. The place where I'm ACTUALLY the god of blood, and Aqizzar is a real baron, etc. If you don't know what is meant by this you might want to ask someone over PM before deciding to join.


1. Don't be a dick. I don't want other RPers just bothering others for the hell of it or out of spite. Have an IN CHARACTER reason to do what you do.

2. No "Nuke buttons". Don't all of the sudden say you can destroy everything and nothing comes back and blah blah blah... It's annoying and an easy way to try and get what you want, and we won't be having that here. That is unless I (Armok) say it's OK, ask me over PM first.

3. Absolutely NO godmodding. Do not, under any circumstances go far beyond what can be expected for you to say what happens, don't over assume you can do something and just write it as such. Note that godmoding means doing something that is more powerful than your character is suposed to be, if its clear from that start that they are so this rule still alows overpowered characters. but also note that Armok will protect peaple in his relm with powerfull magics, so all that realy does is moving it IC.

4. NO summoning. Strife's old topic died when a bunch of idiots decided a throwaway joke about some monsters appearing meant that it was time to bring EVERYTHING in. Do NOT bring in useless monsters just to kill them. But adding extra characters to actually RP as is fine, just don't over do it or you could be overwhelmed.

5. If something bothers you, say so. If someone does something you think is in very bad taste make sure to say so OOC or through PMs. Letting a problem sit could lead to derailing fourm drama.

6. Do NOT derail other peoples characters. If some character has a serious problem in their characterization don't do something dumb to just fix them up all perfect. This is extremely annoying and sort of invalidates the victimized character. Exeption: gods who are prayed to.

7.Character vs Character combat should be kept to a minimum, or be mostly agreed on by the participants. If you are gonna fight it should be for a good reason and be for character development purposes. Don't start a fight just because you want to kill off a character, thought fights for comedic or drama reasons are fine as long as they are agreed on by all participants. (PMs would help here to keep everything in check)

8. The topic creator (Armok) and anyone else she deems to have this authority (Sofia, Akroma, Luke Prowler, theNewerMartianEmperor) may invalidate abusive actions at will, if they are found to break one of the rules listed above.

9. You shall remain a chilled composure.
10. Remember that this is a family friendly forum.
11. Have fun. Or else.

THIS specific RP also has a special addon: It's Art based, meaning that you can't just write text of your action, you have to draw an image or a comic snippet about it. Posts that are not images are noncanonical, as well as images which are obviously not serous contributions. If you are unable to draw well enough to count as serious, you could ask some of the people who do draw, and your action might become canon if someone hears your pleas and draw it. You can also communicate by phone or radio or send text messages etc. to characters without having to draw anything.

Spoiler: Start Image (click to show/hide)

There is a platform, in low orbit around a small malachite planet, and mysteriously supplied with air and gravity.
On the platform there is:
- A portal machine, opening up to some underground tunnel, and a wooden door can be seen throughout it.
- a huuuuge pile of assorted sweets, with a large sing saying "free candy" sticking out of it.
- A strange crate, on the crate is a large pillow, on the pillow rests Armok, God of Blood, having taken the form of an ordinary-looking housecat.

((For scale, I'm the size of a normal cat, and that door visible throughout the gate is to scale as well.))

[Akroma]

The sound of thousands of boots trampling the scorched earth in unison rises colums of dust into the sky.

Thousands and thousands of graphiten soldiers leave their grey and merciless foot prints on the green malachite desert, as a horrible trumpet sounds.


The pencil army has arrived, and with them they bring death and pestulence in form of their handdrawn weapons.


As the first leaden ladders are set against the floating platform, one thing was sure. Armoks sanctuary would surely perish....

I can't draw well.

Someone feel like drawing Strife walking through the portal with a navy blue coat and his rifle slung, holding a sub machine gun.

[Akroma]

and here we go, this thread is doomed to die quickly

the general bay12 forumgoer has the self-esteem of a stick, and the moment they have to draw, it combines with their general lazyness.

drawing = oh noes, image is not high-class art quality, surely they will think I suck, I mean, even I think I suck, and I think highly of myself

drawing = effort. oh meh, drawing a picture is soooo hard



nobody has said anything about drawing well. look at my silly scribbles.

of course, since you guys are perfectionists and would rather do nothing than doing something that is not going to get praised, none of you will ever actually post here, so yeah, dead thread

guys, get over it, no need to draw anything of quality

[Armok]

@Strife Sure, but it's sorts rudimentary because I couldn't find any description of him beyond weapons and clothing anywhere, and those were specified here anyway.

@Akromas first post: The only possible interpretation I can think of means that's a VERY long ladder...

@Akromas second post: Well, if you read the rules technicaly I DID say it needed to be above a certain level of quality, but that level is more abaut being serius and it being posible to see what the image is suposed to be, not fancy looks. So yea, more people should really try this, even if they think they suck.

[Armok]

Yup, that's the one. Really thou, the threashold is rather low, as long as SOME effort is put into it an MS paint doodle might still be more than good enogth.

[dragnar]

I'm not too good at drawing anything past stick people, but I'll give this a shot.

Suddenly, a mage wearing blue robes falls out of the sky, landing in the candy pile!

Copy-paste-error, or gender revelation?

Regardless, I would *like* to join, however, to access the scanner, I must load Ubuntu, and the network connection(windows-side) fails if I use hibernate to avoid losing all open windows. Plus, I would never bother redrawing my avatar, too much time put into it already.

A Valkyrie rode through the sky, it's engines humming against the silence of space. Spotting the platform, it moved down low to drop off it's cargo. Its bay door opened, and inside was a single Ultramarine. He walked down to the solid ground, and with his exit the Valkyrie sped away.

Luke looked around, examining his surroundings, and then down at himself. "God-Emperor protect, am I craply drawn" and then lightning struck down right next to him. "Ok ok, I take it back!"

Copy-paste-error.
Also, you dont have to redraw it pixel-perfect, I think even a doodle by you shuld be more than good enought quality hopefully.

@Luke_Prowler: heheh, you migh want to be a bit less forth-wall-y. Still funny thou, and I guess tha's what count.

Edit: Damn, did this thing die? It needs more activity anyways, if it dosnt get an influx of players in less than 24 hours please consider the art quality requirement to be no longer in effect.

I'll join soon (working on picture), so don't remove this rule just yet. It has a certain charm to it.

[Killas[SiN]]

Waiiiiiit for meeeeeee!

Out from the sky comes a wierd man blob. He only has a few hairs and has extremely odd eyes. Plastered onto his face is a perpetual grin, despite his predicament - falling through the sky at an alarming rate! He is clutching a suitcase (Not visible in pic), seeming not caring that he will soon splat onto Armok's platform. Most wierdly of all, however, is the number '4' scarred onto his forehead. Just what the hell is going on?

[Strife26]

In case anyone needs text from Strife,

Strife looks around. A floating platform with a blue-mage type suspended in air. "Bloody hell. This is a strange world."
