Oh, I'm not talking about formatting here, just... well, detail. I've tried script writing - I'm not really that into it. Besides, it's best for when you have multiple characters on the same account, and I don't like to do that anymore. I prefer narritive format.
Also... while there isn't a "right way", there is a wrong way. You guys aren't necessarily doing that, but one shouldn't deny it exists.

Ah, I see. Well we can certainly try to adjust more, but also keep in mind that at least two of us aren't used to writing so much. When Sai and I first rped, we used a terrible website that gave us only 500 characters to work with, so details had to be short and brief to get any work done. That's part of the reason we moved everything here. The other reasons were the site kept going into maintenance way more often and we cared for, and for crying out loud, their censorship was too strong.

OUCH! I started over on Gaia Online, then eventually moved to RPoL.net. That's where I learned most of the basics.

Yeah. We couldn't even use Bisharp, the name of a POKEMON, because BISH was in the name and Bish was too close to bitch. No one was happy over that.

Ah, it seems I've missed some things cx Yeah, I've rped with people who do one liners, and that's pretty... bleh. So far, I think it's going alright here, I'm still having fun, but I think Rolina might be right. I'm sorry if my posts are ever too short or emotionless, I try not to let my characters go all stoic on me cx Oh and I'm sorry if you felt left behind, Rolina. I guess I have a lot to learn as well. Tbh I haven't RPed for even two years yet, so I'm very inexperienced. I apologize for the mistakes I've made and will try to do better. I always appreciate critique and suggestions, so keep 'Em coming!

Well, the rps I'm used to aren't really detail driven, they're story driven. I will be honest though, I do want to put in MUCH more details, and will be working on that in the future.

Yeah, the only thing keeping me from posting right now is that I have no idea how to start. I have an idea for something I want to do - you guys stumbling upon Marida as she's trying to master a new spell (albeit unsuccessfully). This should be a bit of a ways away from civilization, which is one of the big reasons I've been chatting here - I've no idea what the current setting even is. For all I know, it'd be wildly inappropriate to have that intro right now.
I do want to ask another question real quick, too. As you guys are getting your second djinn, I'm guessing you're past start "levels". Do you have an idea of where you'd be in comparisdon to the journey from TBS? For example, do you think you'd be around when you face Tret, or maybe on your way to Imil? I don't meant that literally of course, but rather as a figurative comparison. It'd help a lot in figuring out what Marida should and should not be able to do when you meet her.

If this were broken seal, we'd be just outside of vault. Our Djinn ratio was thrown off a little. I didn't realize Tia was carrying around two! So, for now, we'll go awhile without finding new Djinn.

...A little?
If going by that, I should still have Marida at Lv5, and she shouldn't have Ignis yet. And that rate of Djinn aquisition... even Dark Dawn's going "DAYUM"... I'm guessing you'll slow it down for a bit to balance things out?
By the way, you mentioned something about a new staff in your post? I can't find where you got it or what you said it was. Which page was that on?

When he bought weapons at the shop. Nothing special about the staff, just a small Atk boost.

It's not that I'm doubting you, I'm just trying to get reference stuff. For all I know it was recent enough time-wise or close enough location wise that she may recognize branding or something on the staff from a local place. Anywho, did y'all get the leitmotifs I posted? What'd yall think?

I don't remember the page, but it was within the last couple pages, no doubt. We're in the same town that the staff was bought from. We also found the Cinder Djinni here.

I can't find when you got it... but I did find this: goldensunwiki.net/wiki/Wolfkin_enemy_line#WolfkinYou guys should be dead if you were up against a wolfkin. Those things are level 31. That's stronger than anything found in the first game! What, were bats and vermin not good enough? Poking fun aside - no really, dood. I can't find it. At least I know from your comment that y'all are in a town... Anywho... any reason for you only addressing half of my posts at most? Kinda frustrating when I ask a few questions and only get answers to one, you know...

Oh, sorry about that! We didn't manage to defeat a single Wolfkin and kept running, but even if we did lose, we'd have ended up in the Sanctum either way. Quote from page 12 on how Roland got his staff: "Roland nodded and went to the shop, purchasing a Wooden Ankh with the money he got from the fish". Quote from page 12 as to where we are: "Roland waited for Therese to regroup and pulled out a map of Modern Weyard. 'Okay, if we navigated correctly, this is Grotes on the Addle continent. There is a large source of Venus Psynergy nearby with a radius affecting most of the town. That being the case, Tia will have to be careful.' He blabbed a bit about the history of the area and finall added, 'this place is under the rule of Protu, and he's a Venus Adept, naturally.'" I hope that caught you up.
