@jupiter_hollow I don't really know how older people act. 😋

jupiter_hollow • 3 April 2013 at 10:30 AM

@ems Levi acts like an older person o.o That's the main point I was making xD She's cold and affected. That's rare for a child, but it's okay. It's more common for adults to get affected. I understand being only cold and emotionless - I've seen some creepy anti-social children o-e But... well I don't know. I just wonder how she reacts to being a Dreamwalkeroo o3o

ems • 3 April 2013 at 10:46 AM

@jupiter_hollow Oh... Well that was only partly intended. XD There's a creepy anti-social girl on my bus... I feel bad for her because she has no friends even though she wants friends. I have no idea how she'll respond...

linpug • 3 April 2013 at 11:28 AM

@jupiter_hollow
Well, I have lots of characters over 16, and she's just one of my younger characters. I find It fun to be able to play different ages. Cx I just feel it's right with Trish's personality for her age to be 14, and I know it's young, but it just seems like a match.

What do you mean by that? 😋

@ems
I'm anti social D:

jupiter_hollow • 3 April 2013 at 11:30 AM

@linpug

I don't know.. just feels weird for the fate of the DreamWorld to be in the hands of kids.. o-e Dude and I thought I made REID too young! xD

Reid: *reads Trish's form* Carrot powers...? What the heck did I get myself into?

linpug • 3 April 2013 at 11:43 AM

@jupiter_hollow
Well tell that to avatar the last air bender. D: Oh wait. Aang was 112. x3 Um, I see your point. Perhaps there should be an age limit. XD How old do you think they have to be?

jupiter_hollow • 3 April 2013 at 11:54 AM

@linpug Nah, I'm not really angry about the age thingies, just that they act much more mature. Heck, they act more mature than Reid. He becomes a spoilt child when his dignity is wounded xD

@ems For instance, Levi makes perfect sense. She's young, but hence her traumatic experience, she's matured early and learned to deal with difficulties in her own way.

Reid deals with difficulties using violence.
The way that a person deals with their problems is what defies them. I understand she lives alone and that she was blind (which I assume was a joke) but otherwise, nothing has happened. There isn't a cause for her personality. Just one question - is the carrot thing serious? XD

Have you tried developing her? I don't know, think of her origin, of her roots (parents), of her history. Why is she smart? Who provided her with books if she is alone? to live alone, she needs a job. Where does she work? If she works ad actually goes out, why does she not have friends? What is the reason for her short temper? Why is she strong willed? Was there an event of her past that made her stronger? What's the deal with the carrots? x'D

linpug • 3 April 2013 at 12:00 PM

@jupiter_hollow
Yes. The carrots were a part of her past. Now, I wasn't referring to complete blindness, as there are different stages.
No, She's perfect. XD
She goes to school. x3
She bought them.
She is provided money by her parents.
She thinks it's to much trouble to make friends.
It's just her personality. o.O I mean, I guess you wouldn't call it "Short temper." Perhaps, she even has the opposite. Well, I guess that she argues a lot, using words. She's like that one person that carries around a dictionary to prove she's right and corrects bad grammar. XD
She is strong willed because she likes winning and hates loosing. <--- Sore looser D:<
She loves carrots because they saved her.

"Ask until the why!"

jupiter_hollow • 3 April 2013 at 12:06 PM

@linpug ...I give up.

linpug • 3 April 2013 at 12:09 PM

@jupiter_hollow
Is there a flaw with my chaRacters personality?
I would love to hear it to make it more realistic. 😋
Sorry for being a ignorant. >.<

jupiter_hollow • 3 April 2013 at 12:16 PM

@linpug Magical carrot... 'Nuff said.

linpug • 3 April 2013 at 12:21 PM

@jupiter_hollow
Carrots can cure some forms of blindness. 😊
I was kidding about "magical carrots" as there is no such thing, but it's a fact that carrots can cure blindness. 😊

jupiter_hollow • 3 April 2013 at 12:25 PM

@linpug Let's list everything xD

-Was blind
-Cured by carrots (miraculously) "Eating carrots will not cure bad vision but will improve it"
-Is a dreamwalker
-Lives alone
-Has no friends

Maybe linking things together would improve a character. Nothing in here is linked together. Basically, it is a dozen good ideas thrown into one character, which makes it a little bit messy.

linpug • 3 April 2013 at 12:36 PM

@jupiter_hollow
Well, your obviously a supreme roleplay. 😋
I'll work on improving her so she is more real. XD

Background: Trish was born with a sickness that caused her to become night blind. Trish was constantly fed carrots, which contained vitamin A so she could see. Trish grew up with a burning passion for carrots. She also enjoys reading, and when not doing something involving carrots she is often found doing this. Trish lives with her parents and her carrots.

Personality: Trish is very smart and loves reading books, and of course, loves carrots. She doesn't care what others think of her. Her her friends are all carrots; she doesn't bother making real friends. She skipped a 2 grades of school, so it's also hard to get along with people older than her.Because of this, Trish is anti social. Many people think she's odd because of her addiction to carrots so thy avoid her. Trish is strong willed and never gives up because she hates to loose, and will quarel about the tiniest things. After she found out she had this disease, she has been dedicated to find the cure and has been reading books more than ever to find it. Trish doesn't really care about the Nightmare/Dreamwalker thing.

jupiter_hollow • 3 April 2013 at 12:48 PM

@linpug Perf 😸 Absolutely perf! >w<

linpug • 4 April 2013 at 5:47 PM

@jupiter_hollow
Thanks 😸

@rushingwater
I find that kind of odd that your character would do that, because it is our job to eliminate nightmares.

Perhaps you could say you found one in the area you lived in, or something. xD

Deleted • 4 April 2013 at 5:49 PM

@linpug

Ehehe. I know...it makes it moar interesting though if her *** is a NightMare!!! She will come over it; she's only 13 😋

jupiter_hollow • 4 April 2013 at 6:02 PM

@rushingwater Lemme make it a riddle. Her d*d is a Nightmare >,> You revealed that, I think. In the first post you made. It really is intersting though! Did she inherit the sickness from him? =o Hey, you know, her dad could be one of the oldest Nightmares? Or the leader of them?

Sorry, my imagination did a loop there ^^"

Deleted • 4 April 2013 at 6:03 PM

@jupiter_hollow

She DID inherit the sickness!

And her *** is one of the highest-ranked (not deputy, though, not leader, either) NightMares! 😃

jupiter_hollow • 4 April 2013 at 6:04 PM

@rushingwater KNEW IT! OvO *gives self a medal* I'm so smert iz not iven funneh! XD

Deleted • 4 April 2013 at 6:06 PM

@jupiter_hollow

xD Here, take another medal!! *hands*

jupiter_hollow • 4 April 2013 at 6:08 PM

@rushingwater *gobbles medal up* =P

Hrm... this reminds me. I have to think up a detailed backstory for Reid .-. Any suggestions? XD @linpug

Also, I have NO idea how he's going to get along with three girls with the ages of: 12, 13 and 14 xD

Also, anyone reply?

Deleted • 4 April 2013 at 6:09 PM

@jupiter_hollow

xD How old is Reid xD

linpug • 4 April 2013 at 6:14 PM

@jupiter_hollow
Well I think that 12, 13 and 14 are too young. x3 I was going to making her 16. D: I wish that there was a really big variety, but everyone is so young. x3 6. x3
Characters:
Trish- 16 - Girl - Dreamwalker
Levi - 12 - Girl -Dreamwalker
Kystal - 13 - Girl -Dreamwalker
Reid - 18 - Boy -Dreamwalker
XDD
More boys, more ages and more nightmares are needed D:

jupiter_hollow • 4 April 2013 at 6:21 PM

@linpug I want to make that fakely sweet waitress a nightmare >w< Imagine this - the cafe where Dreamwalkers meet is run by Nightmares ;]

@rushingwater 18, his birthday is on the 17th of December though. =P So I guess he'll be turning 19 soon xD

Hrm, I can make another boy Nigthmare, instead of making the waitress a Nightmare. =P Or make both xD Nah, I'll reveal the waitress later =P

Mkay, so I'll make another male, I guess... Hrm Rush, are you going to make a form for her dad? Also, I think I'll make it so Reid's Dreamwalker little brother was killed by Krystal's dad? 😋 How does that sound?

linpug • 4 April 2013 at 6:24 PM

@jupiter_hollow
I wish someone would do that. XD Maybe you can do it if no one else does, but that would be really hard to control two characters. XD

I won't make a form for Trish's parent because they won't ever be appearing. (Well rarely) xD They work all day. 😸

jupiter_hollow • 4 April 2013 at 6:31 PM

@linpug I've RPed with seven charries in an RP at once XD And I've got four PM RPs going right now. I can handle it, chillax bro ;]

Mkay then, I'll probably make... Dominik Walker as a Dreamwalker (DWalker XDDD). The waitress (Laurel Spencer) as a Nightmare and another male as a Nightmare later on =P

linpug • 4 April 2013 at 6:32 PM

@jupiter_hollow
Kay, dude. :]
Maybe you should make some older characters, like Dominik is 20? XD

Questions to develop back-stories:
Why does he act childish?
Did something happen when he was young for him to act rebellious?
Where are his parents?
Is he still in school?
Were did he grow up?
Who was closest to him?
What happened to make him this way today?

I'll probably make a male character. (Though I'm not sure which side) Called Chris Man Lee. I have still have to develop him though, so far the only thing for personality/appearance/back round/everything is: Manly. o.o

jupiter_hollow • 4 April 2013 at 6:49 PM

@linpug
Close enough xD He's a bit older and one of the high ranks in the Dreamers =P

Answers:
-Because he's grown up without proper education, which meant nobody was there to teach him how to be mature. And since he doesn't learn from his mistakes (he's too proud to learn accept that he made a mistake) he isn't very mature.
-Yes, he grew up in a very very strict family. He acted rebellious since he refused to accept being a 'good boy'. He began making friends with criminals, joined a gang and eventually, his parents disowned him.
-Mourning his little brother. They blame 'it' on him.
-No, he dropped out at 16.
-Switching from flat to flat. Barely capable of paying rent in his previous house though. He's slept on the street a couple of times too.
-He hangs out with his friends... But the one he loves the most WAS his brother. His little brother had looked up to him since Reid was independent and lived alone.
-Yes. His brother, also a DreamWalker, was killed in his sleep. You can guess by who. Doctors couldn't determine the cause of death, but eventually, Reid found out about the Nightmares and realized they were the cause of his brother's death.

@chapus2009
What do you mean by summon any animal?

@jupiter_hollow
That's so sad. ;A;
