Dan (Nightfox):
Well stated but, if that WAS directed towards myself, perhaps I didn't make
myself clear. For some reason, you all equate "4th World" with power-mad
fools. I am not powerful and trust me, I grew to love Jerricho, Stormy now,
a ot. That's why I made him a spike kid in the first place. I made him close
to my experience. I KNOW what happened to him growing up, differentiated
a bit, of course, but still a lot like myself.
At the time I made him, his concept was just as unique and interesting. I
will not apologize for having concurrent ideas with umpteen other people
with who I have no contact. I don't blame you for bringing it about, if
they have a good concept behind it, more power to them.
As to magic, it don't apply. I may be old but I'm as cold astrally as your
average ork or troll! I'm a shame to my father's name and has had nothing
to do with me for a long time, until about a year ago. God, I miss the old
days. *grin*
I will probably not cut back on Jerricho, or need to. He doesn't flaunt
anything, most of the times at least unless he's "fallen in love" and is
trying to impress her/him or make a fool of a rival. Ahhh, true romantics
are so FUN to mess with, or at least 3 different GMs think so.. *groan*
OK, he's a spike baby. Sue me! I can't help coming up with a concept I
like, admire and even fall in love with.
Stormy, Jerricho, all the other names he's had, is not just a new
creation for power and never was. I, without luck of the dice, could have
been killed many times. A lot of things happened to him that he regrets and
wished never happened.
As to what I'm saying, I don't know either. :) If anyone does, please
tell me. Just because I posted stats and snippets of background, don't
think that's all there is. Some of the background will probably never
come out, as it's intimately personal to me and it's mostle irrelevant.
This chaacter, I know as much about him as I do myself, if not more. I
don't see how I could get "into" him any more than I am. And I think
that makes a roleplayer... Disagree as you wish.
Oh, BTW, I really like Dimitri.
Harlequin: Re: Dragons on Plot
Ahhhh... the turth, she comes out! Just wondering.. Does Faphniir live
in Germany and have a fondness for people of Norse descent... usually
as meals? (This refers to the (Wagner?'s Niebelung (sp) saga...)
Re: SR to SRII
Thanks to all those who answered my little query. That answers it to
my satisfaction.
I apologize for the length of this post.... Blame it on Dan, he made me
do it! Yeah, yeah, that's it! *grin* Apparently, long-windedness is quite
catching... :)
Jerricho aka Stormy
Hmmm, could be worse... Could be Falky... *shudder*
