[OOC] Arcadia Complex

I have been away from rp for a long time myself. My posts aren't a good as the rest of you, but at long as anyone understands what I post, I'm good with that. lol And to Pancakei, mafia..i like the sound of that.
 
Hey there, glad to see you're interested in joining! The current thread is open for characters to join. We have a discord for streamlined communication, if you shoot me a message or a DM over there I can help you work a character into the setting! Alternatively, you can send me a forum conversation.


And thank you! Mafias are just the beginning, by the end of this show we'll have cults, Inquisitions, robots, ghosts, judges, pirates, abominations, and who knows what else we'll come across.

All sounds wonderful, and thank's to you also. I haven't mentioned it in my earlier posts, but Veta has a past, but it is still present..a family life so to speak that she is trying to run away from, but she can't, her father, or should I say GodFather Don...isn't letting her go so easily. I'm working on a name for him, and I'm still working on the last name for the mob family, I have two in mind...Gaetano, or Santoro....Veta's real name..Vetoria..but she changed it to Veta..she got the Norr as no more.. So if someone would like to play her father, that would cool..and also some brothers perhaps could be played by someone..and perhaps a sister..you maybe ?
 
The way we RP may be a little different than you may be thinking.

We have a roster of individual characters played by players who act as a crew for the ship run by Captain Dahlia and guided by OSC-01 (the two main GM NPCs).

As such, the story and posts are driven mostly as a call-response between the GM and the players. Inter-player RP without the GM can happen in interim threads or joint posts, however.
 
Due to the increased presence of spam bots, all older threads and posted JPs have been locked from reply.

The current thread is still open, and all older threads are still available for viewing and reacting.
 
Most of our characters are, in a word, mercenaries. They're here because they're getting paid, or they wanted an easy/free ride around to explore these ruins, and stuff like that. Kinda like a D&D party, honestly, now that I think about it...
 
Well would you look at that we've made two trips around the sun since this plot started!

This RP is the most successful active plot on Ayenee right now. Anything I can do to help you sustain your success? Do you guys need anything from me?
 
Thank you for reaching out, @Wes! I'm glad people are enjoying it as much as I am.

It's been fairly smooth sailing and we're working out a post rhythm, with my only kind of concern being getting new players into the plot. We seem to run on a somewhat different structure than the traditional RP run on Ayenee, so the rest of the RP on the site and the plot don't really blend into eachother much (for better or worse). I'm not sure what to do to help that though.

Perhaps we could make your plot more visible by moving it to a top level forum - maybe a featured RPs section?

This works for the forum overall too because I want to show signs of life in an obvious way to the people visiting the site.
 
I moved Arcadia's forum further up on the forum list since it's the happening thing on Ayenee. :)

It's kind of funny in a way that you guys have this whole place almost to yourselves. I am continuing to provide web support. Just renewed the domain, updated the forum and wiki, style, and renewed our software licenses so everything is set up to continue smoothly! If you need anything let me know!

Thank you for everything, Wes!

If there's anything I can do to help repay the favor, please do let me know!
 
We long sailed over our third year anniversary, and I completely forgot!

I won't sugarcoat it in any way, 2020 was an absolutely abysmal year for the world and everyone involved. We've all been put through a lot of new and different circumstances that have drawn our attention elsewhere, and as such Episode Three has been very slow boiling. While I constantly joke about posting, I've said to my players many times before: life problems come absolutely first. This forum can wait. Still, I am very happy that everyone has stuck around this far, despite how slow the plot moved in the past year. It really means a lot, and it helps motivate me to keep putting in effort to improve.

2020 is in the rear view now, and all we can do is hope for a better tomorrow. I'm going to try and spark more movement in the plot overall and try posting more frequently, but if you have any troubles and blockages that I can help with or simply should know about, do feel free to reach out and let me know. Let's get this ancient Nepherian-cupboard bread.
 
I created the Weaver. I have seen post's about using the void and weaving it. How? The weaver is a reality bender, it cannot weave that which is nothingness.

Use the void and send people there by all means but you cannot weave that which is infinite nothing.
