So, too, is Death possessed of infinite strategies and a gaunt nature.
the biggest takeaway is that rp is about storytelling

on every site i join i have but one (1) goal in mind and that's to push the overall site plot forward. obvsly, i can't do that alone (threading w myself is boring tbh) so i seek out ppl who share the same ambition and are disciplined (with their characters / plots / threads they agree to take on and subsequently complete) enough to see to that story end.

and sometimes (most of the time) you gotta work for that story which requires a lot of bending, fitting, and molding that character.

i personally look for impactful characters / writers who are willing to cooperate for the sake of story. aka, characters who impact other characters or the goal at large (kudos to those who are selective about what character to include in events—especially events that impact the overall site.) the writer doesn't need to be mega active to catch my attention—hell, i thread with even tho he leaves me on read half the time :pepesleep:

its why i always pick up site canons. bc its the sure-fire method to push site plot and also gain plots / threads from people who might surprise you down the line

i kind of want an animated/animanga superhero rpg. There was one like a year or two ago and it never went anywhere -- I always thought it was brilliant.

like have all the heroes/villians from the marvel and dc universes with their powers and similar occupations, but like have different fcs/characters for them? like an alternate universe/storyline that doesn't strictly depend on the cinematic universe(s) or comics. like imagine how fire it would be to have lelouch lamperage as stephan strange, or asuka langley as jean grey


i remember being on a site with this very same concept back in 2017-2018 (i miss my joseph joestar remy lebeau/gambit and my yukako yamagishi diana prince/wonder woman!) what a wonderful experience that was.

the best kind of superhero sites i've been on were either school focused featuring feuding hero vs villain academies, kinda like the 'school for good and evil' book series or career track like hero agencies vs villain guilds, sponsorships, endorsements... you know, the kind of stuff real-life celebrities pursue (i remember there being a sidekick program where the admins would pair young upstarts with established veteran heroes/villains). both concepts were more or less about gaining character recognition/reputation by participating in IC activities and events.

Cresting in his hand rides the terrible awe of Rainbow Undecimber. In the time it would take for the maid to make her assault, divinity has already smote the creature. Light itself bends into a sword and to the others they see absolutely nothing but the diaphanous edge of a blade, which is solid, not exactly steel, enchanted but real, cleaving through the beast with terrible Almighty cacophony and hordes of flashing color.
