@thearcaneaxiom Your characters sound interesting. I’d love to have one of them with my charries if I were alone, but since I’m with @theloonyone and @loopylin, I’m not sure if they’d approve of it.
The communication/two personality thing is cool. Where did you come up with that?
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
February 2, 2023 at 5:16 pm #131231Thanks! As for Liren, wouldn’t you like to know *sinister laughing😈. Seriously though, I do have plans for him, I think he will find freedom someday, but in what way that looks like, I have multiple ideas, and I like all of them, and I might take all the best parts for each of them, or the sword may get past to multiple characters, resulting in different stories. I have many plans, non set in stone, but I will say nothing as to what they are.
So if there are characters that are able to speak other languages, then what does that say about the magical universal language that allows them to understand each other in most cases? This is probably not meant to be over analyzed so I think I’m going to make the following assumption, when entering the castle, characters in there disorientation think and speak in the universal language, but once they become more self aware, they start speaking there personal languages at will. There are likely still holes here, but I don’t think the castle has any hope for making sense in any logic respect anyway.

So… I don’t really feel like writing a RP today. 😅
Sorry!

February 2, 2023 at 5:27 pm #131238Thanks! No worries, I’m already going to meet with some other anyway.
Good question! I actually came from the language first. I had this weird consonant sound I made that’s not quite in the IPA, it’s a modification of the (sh) sound that I notate as (s”h). I started making a start of a language, then showed it to my Uncle, who pointed out that it seemed pointlessly vocally complex. So I researched a little, and learned, logically, that the more complex the sounds, the more information one word tends to compact, like the African language Taa. I then had the idea of taking that to the next level where I encode a whole second independent language into the other, and it took of from there.

February 2, 2023 at 5:42 pm #131241Okay, so I know I keep changing his name but I have (mostly) decided! Before it was Esen, then Esrian, but now he shall be named Zyrin. Don’t let me change the poor guy again XD
Yay! I’m excited for our characters! They’re gonna have so much fun. Bwahaha!!!
NAMAL
Her mind felt groggy. Namal didn’t like that. She lifted her head from where it had been resting against a dank wall. She blinked at the dim lighting, but her eyes adjusted quikly enough that she didn’t waste Light trying to illuminate the space. Turning, she noticed where the light was coming from. Apparently the front wall of the room was not a wall at all.
It was made of bars. Cell bars.
She stood quickly, trying to regain her brains usual focus. Two metal slabs, probably meant to be beds, were across from her and a bucket sat in one corner. The rest was just stone. Oddly, she saw no one gaurding the room outside. Her hazel gaze traveled back to the beds. Because of her unfortunate height, it was hard to see over it but she thought she could see a lump on it.
She walked forward and heard… Snoring?
Of course. She thought, rubbing her brow. Then, stepping on the bottom bunk, she shoved hard at the sleeping form. It wouldn’t take much. She hopped down, stepped back, and counted silently. One… Two… Three…
Her partner groaned and rolled over off the bed, straight onto the rock floor. She heard a muffled, “Oomph,” before Phervin’s red haired head came up. “What? Huh? I’m up…” His eyes finally cleared as they steadied on Namal. “Morning gorgeous.” The comment was paired with one of his sygnature grins, but it failed as he winced. “Ow, that’s definatly bruised.”
Don’t worry, nothing could mess up that face. She kept that to herself though.”Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised.” She anwered instead, offering him a hand up. Phervin took it, his gaze going to the bars. He sighed. “Not again.”
“Tell me about it.” Namal walked over to grip them, testing the metal’s strength.
“Well we have been cap-insured, what do we do this time?” He said.
She glanced back at her fellow gaurd in confusion. “You mean captured?”
He shook his head, holding up a small knit head covering. “Nope, cap-insured.” His brows waggled. “Get it?”
Her palm hit her forehead. Of course he was making puns. “Where did you get a hat from?”
Phervin only smiled in response. “Like I’d tell you.”
Namal sighed, even as she warmed at seeing his grin again. “Let’s just focus on getting out of here.”
ZYRIN
He gasped, lurching upward. The dream. Always that same dream. The things were falling… They were… Destroying…
Zyrin shook the remnents off, breathing slowly, hand to his chest. It was currently glowing a sharp icy blue, and he waited silently in the dark until it returned to normal. He sighed and leaned his head back, only to find that his wall was not where it should have been. He fell back.
“Huh?” Casting his hands out he hit a smattering of random objects. Had his siblings dumped a clutter of their stuff in his room again? While it was small enough, it didn’t feel like his room. The smell was foreign. Like when you go to a strangers house.
Zyrin’s elbow bumbed into something behind him, and he felt something smack his head. “Ouch!” He said, rubbing at the now doubly bruised spot. Reaching for the object, he felt around it, trying to figure out what it was in the darkness. It seemed to be a long wooden stick with something prickly at the end.
A broom? Was this some kind of storage closet? He fumbled around, finding what he assumed was a shelf and pulled himself up. Where was the door?
He kicked some of the clutter away until he could see a patch of light coming from under one of the walls. Or probably the door. He moved toward it, lurching forward. As he grasped the handle, his head smacked against a metal knop at the top.
The door opened and he spilled out. Dazed spots flicking across his vision from the head trauma. Air whistling past his ears as he fell forward, Zyrin passed out.
Okay, I’m not sure what was up with all that head smacking but…. it happend. *Shrugs* sorry Zyrin. Anyway, maybe Asher could find him in the hall or something?

@freedomwriter76 @godlyfantasy12
AGH I’M SO SORRY GUYS… turns out I’m really bad at writing roleplays from a lone, undeveloped character…
If you’d still like me to join your group I have a way I can make a couple characters join, but I understand if you don’t, y’all have RPed a lot since then and there’s a lot of characters in that group.
