@whalekeeper I moved us here so we didn’t spam the topic anymore like you said 😂
That’s okay! I think I understand what you’re saying—I know exactly what you mean by the bright light leaving a splotch in your vision thing. So for the most part, it seems like you have association, but it slightly affects the way you actually see some charact…[Read more]

If you want to talk about this more, we should move the conversation so it isn’t spamming this topic. 😅

Do words really change color for you when you read them, or do you read it in black ink but see it in your head as colored?
Acchhh this is extremely difficult. I believe my grapheme-color is somewhere in between association and projection. I was never confused as a child about how the letters were made with multiple colors, I knew they…[Read more]

@rae @raxforge @ellette-giselle
Our characters are right next to yours, see below.
Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Ellis, Fel, Sara)
The four travellers tried to look inconspicuous in the dark. Their soaked clothes mostly blended in with the background. Marcel noticed Felicity’s bright hair, and motioned for her to shove…[Read more]

Hi! Back with a few more questions! 🫣
Have you heard of projects/associators? It basically is the difference between actually seeing words/symbols in the color or just associating it with that color in your mind’s eye. Do words really change color for you when you read them, or do you read it in black ink but see it in your head as…[Read more]

“We need to… hide somewhere…” Marcel panted, pulling Sara forward.
She glanced around and saw an abandoned-looking alley. “What about there?”
@everyone else If our characters are going to meet up, maybe now would be a good place to do it?

Marcel – Elderstrand (w/ Ellis, Felicity, Sara)
The group shivered, plastered against the side of the wall. Ellis gave Marcel a warning gesture towards the left street, and stared up at where the soldiers’ feet pattered above.
“Hey!” Their silence didn’t help. One of the soldiers in the street patrol pointed in thei…[Read more]

We all make mistakes when making something, it’s okay 🙃

Thanks both of you :]
Marcel — Edge of Everstrand
Marcel nodded and grabbed Felicity’s hand. “Hold on tight.”
He lunged for the wall and skipped up, the world turning on its side, and the rain flying into their faces. As he stepped, something white spread outward from the soles of his feet, covering the wall li…[Read more]

Jonas, please make sure the night scenes don’t completely end before our group can get inside the city 🙏😭 Maybe you can reply to ours, since you have Ellis, and I’ll send everyone in?

Barnes
Everyone slumped, and hesitated to do anything. The three medieval individuals still ate silently. Reid comforted his brother, who would surely need a lot of monitoring during this adventure, and Hugo still sat alone by the fire. Even the food hadn’t done much good.
This couldn’t go on. Barnes had to take own…[Read more]

Lol, I always try to judge when someone is writing a roleplay or not, you can pretty much tweak it to a science.

Here’s a start, anticipate that Marcel is able to vault them over the wall
Marcel — Edge of Everstrand
“The city is called Everstrand,” Sara said. Her gaze flickered over the word a few times, as if thinking about something.
They headed for the city. Sara and Ellis still hadn’t shared much about themselve…[Read more]

No worries, girl. My character’s not the most … extroverted… 😅 so I don’t know if she would step into that leader role. She’s fine just taking a backseat while I practice her POV 😂

I’m working on it rn 😊

whaley replied to the topic Fantasy Adventure RP in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Okay… *Bits lip* Yeah, I’ll do it, I don’t like to take up too much space in a group because it might bother people who want to write, but I can flesh out everything if you like. Give me half an hour.

Whaley, I don’t mind if you want to do it. 😊 Then @jonas can add the npcs in, and Loopy can go next?

Okay yay 😂
Yep, I think so.
I don’t use them for inspiration, but while choosing names for characters, I need the right personality to hit. It is a great feeling to find the right name for somebody. Does it affect math? …Memorization is much easier. In that regard it doesn’t get in the way.
Yeah, it’s just the placement on the keyboard. It’s pr…[Read more]
Right, I gotcha. How did you pick some of your characters’ names? What made you realize, oh, that’s the right one?
Awesome! Yeah, that’s really interesting.
Rightt, I’m still trying to figure it out. It has to be in the POV enough, but also not in there too often… it’s a weird balance. I’ll probably stick to unusual words, some sound-to-color,…[Read more]
I go through baby name lists as usual. I have a few letters in mind and/or a length, and swipe through until I find something. This search is very similar to how everyone else does it, there are just a few more criteria for the name to pass.
One of my favorite names ever ever ever is Marcel. The first syllable sounds solid, and the second has a…[Read more]
Honestly I do that with character names too. I try not to name characters even with placeholders until the last minute, because then the placeholder will get stuck as their actual name. Or they’ll still have remnants of that name affecting them or something.
Marcel is a much more unique name than Richard or Howard tbh, I like it way better.
@whalekeepr That is so cool! Yeah, I can’t imagine him being a Richard or Howard. 😅
Thank you so much for all your input! It’s been super helpful!!
@whalekeeper
Yeah Marcel is ten times better, at the time I wasn’t very experienced in name-searching.
@keilah-h Here ya go! 😁
thank you!!!
I hope this interrogation satisfies you 😄
haha I hope so too.
