If you haven't already looked at the RP thread, here's the deal: This RP has a setting something like Star Wars, but with outright magic instead of the Force. Hm, I'ma be lazy and cut and paste what I put in there...
Simplest way to explain this would be to say it's like Star Wars, but with magic instead of the Force. The Order of Deo are "good" magic users - most of what they do is fairly harmless, but they are fully capable of defending themselves. Its led by a sort of council of Elders, but there are many others that go about keeping things running smoothly, and others in a sort of academy, learning how to harness their magic and the ways of Deo. There's also the bad side, users of very destructive magic who frequently follow a more devil-like figure. Them and people who are just generally against the Deo thing, whether or not they have magic, are dubbed heretics. (Name suggestions? I'm trying to make it not too much like the source, especially since I'm not sure of all the sources it used...) Anyway, my brain is kinda running out of stuff to say...
There. And so everyone knows, this is a play-by-request thread. If you want to play, ask Jess or me (or better yet, ask here and we'll both see!).

M'kay then. Sorry - just not used to having RP building discussions on open boards. That, I think I just have 2 major questions at the moment. 1) What's the difference key difference between dark and light magic? Is it still considered 'white' magic if used for evil? 2) What's the general goal of the story? --For example, in a Sailor Moon RP, the goal might be to find the Silver Crystal, and the actual story revolves around the characters heading towards that goal. What's the general goal of this storyline? Knowing that would better help me integrate my own character into the universe. I'm exhausted and gonna hit the sack for now, I'll 'prolly have more questions in the morning.  |

1. As far as magic is concered, White Magic typically heals and provides protection and buffs while Black Magic typically causes harm. Thats the only real difference that I saw... White is inherently 'good' whilst Black is inherently 'Evil' now what you use them for is up to you...
2. The general storyline is about the end of the universe. ^_^ Dorothy is the key. Nyx is just a pawn of fate. It was also to explore the old relationship me and Nova built between the characters on the old Star Fantasy forum we used to play on.
For now thats what I got... Nova can build on it more.

"Renaissance" is rebirth. <.< Just so ya' know. >.>
But yeah, it's basically about the end of the universe in storyline, and getting to actually use our characters in purpose. ^^

Yeah... that never really did come to fruition on Star Fantasy did it?  I really would've liked ending the Universe by accident... |

Been talking with Nova about how to introduce my character a bit and she's given me a more detailed rundown of the RP. At the moment we/I have a idea of how to introduce my character and keep the story moving; I'll post it and see what you think, Jess.
At the moment my basic idea is to use two of my minor characters to keep the story going; they're mechanics/armaments experts who Nyx may be going to to get Dorothy/the fungus checked out. Tao (my main character) may be associated with those two (as their security/drudge). While they're there something happens to Nyx's ship (sabotage?)and it may have to be left with the mechanics; Tao has a ship, and so they may switch to his ship as they look for a cure to Nyx's fungus.
It's a rough idea at the moment, of course. Just wanted to see what you think.

Wow, suddenly it sounds so weird, talking about Nyx having a fungus... makes me think of nasty feet. o.O

lol, I figured you'd do something different, like a Virus or something.

Fungus is easier. It could have survived longer all locked away from stuff, and doesn't have the issue of being untreatable.
