Balamb Garden: signup and discussion

I laughed at the general crappyness of them too!

It's the fact that they are animated gif's that bring the quality down, and the fact that I'm not great at making them that makes them stupid in the first place ^^.

Just adds a little extra fun to the RP I suppose. If people really hate it I'll stop it though.


Thankfully we're starting to move along in the story now, it was beginning to go round in circles slightly.

Just to clarify:

Going to Timber: Enigma, Amelia and Al'umar
Going to Esthar: Arthvader
Going elsewhere: Evan (Balamb)
Unconfirmed: Hebi, Damon, Jimmy (if you still want to be involved that is)

The one thing I want to try an start doing is now and again putting a title to your post, just so we can see exactly what is going on. Something simple, e.g. Evan heading to Balamb

You don't have to do it every post, just once in a while. I only ask this because now we have 3 different storylines (kind of) things may get a bit confusing and this can hopefully sort it out :)

Agrees

ok, that seems like an OK idea.
though, I tend to use the quick reply, so...
 
I know its a bit late to join but can I still?
Before the final draft, is it possible to double-up on summons and if not, which ones are left?

Name: Kyuin
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tall; Blue, messy hair; Standard Balamb Garden Uniform; Slightly Tanned skin; thin build; Light blue eyes
Personality: Very distant and sarcastic, he often gets irritated when people display irrational thinking. He is often well aware of dangerous situations and people around him as well as harsh but true facts, and reminds people of these harsh facts. However, he is caring of the ones who get to know him, and he has a very odd sense of humour, something he has been called a freak about more than once.
Dorm Number: 265
Weapons: Long Spear
Specialist Abilities: Although not specialist abilities as such, Kyuin has trained to a level that he can perform spells and dodge attacks with frightening quickness, catching most opponents off guard with this. His strength is also quite high, although his defense (magic and physical) is very, very low. He has a good affinity with his summon as well and trains with her constantly.
Abilities/Magics: Aura, Meltdown, Fira, Blizzara, Thundara, Cura, Tornado
Summon/s: Pandemona

Red Fox, I also use the quick reply, so as an alternative how about we just put a line at the top of our posts in bold?

Exactly the same as a title, just doing it like this in a quick reply box :)


Marilith, I'm always happy to welcome people into the RP as long as you stay active. If you're confident you can do that, then welcome aboard! Good to have you here.

And to answer your question regarding the summons, most members have chosen not to have summons. The ones I know are taken are: Odin, Gilgamesh, Diablo and I think Carbuncle...Not sure about Carbuncle though.
 
Carbuncle was used once. at the time the power was cute in balamb.

so that is taken as well


and okies. I can try the bold thing ^^
 
hey Damo, I'm goin to the town of balamb not Balamb garden as the garden has been moved for security reasons
 
Oh sorry about that, could've swore that's what I put...Thanks for that Evan; your last post was great by the way. Had the image of Diablo dangling a shark in front of you XD
 
lol, i didn't think that

*Evan was walking along the bridge "I'm soo bored!!!"*

was a good post
 
HAHAHA! Ooh, that reminds me... *goes to make rp post*

EDIT: Could someone give me a quick summary of everything that has happened since my last post?
 
I thought it was funny rather than good, Kira ^^. Always good to see the odd funny post!
 
oh right then, hehe,well i thought it would cheer people up

And FFguy not sure when your last post was BUT

we got to FH Ultimacia had got there first and sent an army of fiends to kill it fiends overran the place, security system set up a barrier around the city to stop the fiends escapeing. Seed arrived...*ensuing battles* ...Seed couldn't contain the threat one seed member shut down the barrier, I (evan) had a previosely summoned Diablo use his Overdrive on the city exterminating all of the fiends (and accidentally decimateing the city)
 
And accidentally (possibly) decimating me. :P My last post was shortly before Elnoyle got killed. Once I've read through everything that has happened I'll post. I don't know where I'll go yet, might head to somewhere in Galbadia depending on what has happened.
 
well.. Galbadians are considered enemies ^^
So it might be smarter to start somewhere else ^^

you could just assume that you where with us the whole time
 
Agreed Red Fox, starting in Galbadia might be a little bit tricky.
Marilith, as RF said, we can pretend as if you were there all along.

I suggest you follow Enigma, Al'umar and Amelia to Timber. We can build on you character from there buddy.

More good news, we have Vegnya back, woo :) Nice to see you here again!
 
Catch up to them as help or something with some news or some such?
Something like that?
Or assume I was with them...
Or I could have been following them secretly...
 
Yo can I sign up?

Name: Rene Skylar

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Rank: Student

Appearance: He is 5 foot 11 with a smooth and handsome face, he is quite muscular and his left ear is pierced with a black stud. His hair is medium length and black, it's spiky at the back and just reaches the bottom part of his neck. His eyes are dark blue.

Personality:
Rene is a kind hearted man who tries to do all he can for those in need around him. Though naïve at times he can usually tell what’s the right thing to do. Often times he will rush into battle and over-estimate his enemy, for instance when he was 14 years old his friend was taking the piss out of him and he went and charged into him not realising what his friend was trying to do, he ended up face first in the mud. If he feels threatened but over-matched he will get nervous and make crappy jokes out of things that aren’t funny and usually they just make the attackers even more annoyed. He can be extremely cocky sometimes but can make friends easily and is very likeable. Also he will be serious and confident if he is on a job.

Clothes: Standard uniform but his regular clothes are a light red sleevless jacket and a white vest with dark baggy jeans and trainers. He occasionally wears a bandana.

Dorm Room: 116

Weapon:
Rene received his blade from his parents, it is a long, broad heavy blade. The blade itself is around 150 cm long and the hilt is around 20 cm long, the blade’s width is around 15cm thick. The blade is extremely sharp. The bottom of the blade is curved and on the bottom of the blade is a golden flower pattern his mother put onto it herself as a present. The hilt is dressed in red cloth and rubber or excellent grip. It’s important to him because it was the last thing his parents gave him before they died

Attacks:
Jump Slash - This skill is similar to Cloud’s Braver but instead of jumping then slashing he will charge forward and jump and slash at the same time. Most of the time Rene uses this as a finisher against larger fiends
Blade Storm - This attack is when Rene will charge at the enemy and slash the person several times in quick succession. He often uses this in a close, intense battle with an extremely good swordsman as it will usually wear them down quickly
Whirlwind Blade - This attack is used when he’s surrounded, in one quick slash he twirls his blade around his body slashing everyone around him.

Flame Blade - Uses Mana he will turn his blade red and cause devastating damage to whoever it’s hitting and the surrounding area within 5 metres of the attack.

Magic:
Cure - Everyone knows what cure does :D
Cura - Same as above
Quake - Causes an earthquake underneath the enemy
Aero - Causes a small whirlwind around the enemy hurting them.
Ice - An ice crystal appears from Rene’s hand and strikes the enemy
Bolt - A bolt of lightning will shoot out of Rene’s hand and strike the enemy
Flame - A jet of fire will erupt from Rene’s hand and strike the enemy.
Flame shots - Rene will send multiple amounts of flames at the enemies that he can control so that if they miss they can come back and strike.
Explosion - A follow on from Flame shot he can send all flame shots into the enemy and make them blow up.

History: Ever since he was a young boy living in Balamb he looked up to the elite SeeDs. One day he met a few and found them to be kind and considerate and he had always wanted to join them. When he was 12 years old his parents died on the same day as his birthday, Balamb garden immediately took him in as he was a close-by resident. His house was sold and the money put into his account and ever since then he'd been learning to use a sword he'd received from his Father, now he's a student and is about to take his exam to become a full-fledged SeeD.
