Seems that my rp ideas had some flaws. Knowing that, I look back on some of the old rps I made. Sadly only one of my rp is a success and is completed. It would seems that perhaps the idea of angels and demons battling amongst each other is more appealing though not entirely original. Thinking that, I gave some more thoughts. So far these ideas came to me. They are still rough. 1. Battles between Heaven and Hell has been fought for many centuries even to this era. Many had fallen, many have been killed, yet the battle still continues. Angel against Demons. God against Devil(Lucifer). While these battles wages on, humans of the mortal realm gets dragged into the holy war. Due to demons manipulation or Angel's seeking humans for help who many refer to them as Exorcists. Demons unlike Angels, some had the advantage of appearing in the mortal realm in solid form while Angels are only able to aid humans spiritually. Lucifer, who had go against God's ideal wants the war to end but yet does not wish for God's ideal to control the mortal realm. The only person in the mortal realm who had go against God's ideal but yet blessed by God himself is Solomon. However Solomon is dead, the only object that he left behind is the ring of wisdom but the ring is lost. But rumors has it before Solomon's passing, he separate the ring into 8 parts like a puzzle and with his magic, had them hidden each part of the world. In this roleplay, your goal is to search for the lost pieces of the ring. To locate the ring is easy due to the power within the ring for it is ring given to Solomon by God. Its power will effect the nature around it. You can roleplay as an Exorcists aiding each Archangel or be one of 72 pillars of Solomon's demons. 2. Scientists seek truth, they seek to unveil the truth behind anything that seems mystical or illogical. Many highly doubt that angels and demons exists. Many don't believe in God or the devil. Yet they seek the truth. When they found the truth, they thrive to experiment on it. Using circles and incantations found amongst books, theories and ruins of the past. They combine magic with science. Creating experiments. They created monsters. They were able to combine humans with the power of demons/angels with science and magic. Countless were experimented and put in pods, analyzing them, some put in cells to watch the experiments progress and what abilities they exhibits. However one day, the experiments escape and were on the loose. The experiments were consider Alpha project aka first experiments. Rather they are ones that failure, ones that cannot be controlled. In fear of them endangering the people around the world, they sent out group of experiments called Omega project. These experiments are more controlled and contained. They are consider soldiers. In this rp, you can roleplay as either the Alpha or Omega. The omega would seek and capture the Alpha, if that is not possible, destroy the Alpha. Alpha is on the run and fight back against the Omega. 3. A new era has arrived, before we all deemed vampires, fae and werewolves as nothing but myths and legends. But they are real. They had came out of hiding few years ago and now today, they live amongst humans as civilians. Many humans look at those creatures in fear or distrust, while others look at them in awe and want to be like them, almost worshiping them. Knowing that these creatures exist, the humans now knew many others exists. Shamans and wiccan even came out in the open, but only a few kept to themselves. Occasionally, from time to time the creatures would go rogue. Much like humans murdering each other, but in a more gruesome way with these creatures. Because of this, the governments created a special force in dealing with these creatures. The executioner or Scooby Squad to most people. Most of the people in the squad are professional detective/police force or shamans/psychic. They deal with crimes that are done by supernaturals and track them down, taking them down; executing them. Pretty much this rp is based on the novel Anita Blake, Vampire hunter. Not sure if many of you have read that novel or not. 4. All around the world, there are many people whose eyes are able to see things that many could not. Some were terrified by what they saw, some were put as outcast. Because of this, the council whose abilities similar to many that are able to see these beings created a school. A school for those whose abilities can be nurtured and train to fight against such beings; demons, spirits and etc. A school built for exorcists. Many within the school are in contract with their mana or familiar to help fight against demons or spirits. In this rp, is simply to train and fight against demons, spirits and supernatural creatures. This rp is based on Blue Exorcists. 5. A game company called HEAVENS sent out invitations to various people across the globe to test out this new game system they created. Those who play the game and win the game will receive ten thousand dollar. The people who received the invitation accepted it and travel to the company located in Tokyo, Japan. They were placed in a room and was told that it is a virtual reality game. Little did they know is that, instead of their mind being transported into the game, it is their entire being, mind and body being transported to the game. However the game itself is in real life. If you die in the game, you die in real life. But before anyone can start the game they were given instructions and options like within all games that many play. In this game, you will get to choose from different category of what you want to be. Your appearance remain the same as in real life, but your body is changed to that of the option you chose. In the game, monsters and magic exists. Unlike most games, you can't reset it or stop the game. You cannot get out of the game. The only way to get out is to beat the game. Basically, this roleplay is a mix of Hunter X Hunter from Greed Island, Sword Art Online and a bit of Attack on Titan. So far these are my rp ideas. Like I said before, they are rough. If you have any questions about any of them, ask away.  |

@Jon: I think this is a good time for me to bring this up here. Summer is ending soon; it's the last 3 weeks before I leave for college/university, so I imagine my posts will be extremely delayed with all the packing and getting things together I'll be doing. And even once I'm done packing, I can't guarantee I'll have a post soon. I'm moving from California to New York so it's going to be a whole new environment for me and I want to get used to my living space and get a group of friends that I'm comfortable with fast. Between getting my things organized, packing, moving, classes, and getting used to things, I'll try and slip some posts in, but if there's no sign of me for a week or so, don't worry, I will finish out the pokemon rp as long as everyone else wants to.

Well, still no activity by Ugo in End of the World. It'd be a bit funny if it died out, considering its plot. @Jon: I'll probably put a post in UtPBS2 on Saturday if nobody else posts by then. |

Yep I took a hiatus, sorry about that. I've sent Emiya and Jon parts of their Epiphany dumps to look over. There's also one for Temp and LD planned but I still haven't written them yet (should be done and sent to related parties tomorrow). My next post is going to end the battle and hopefully try to just get the real story of the prologue going. The battle ended up just being a shallow attempt at spicing up the RP when I already have so much material for it's plot sitting on the sidelines. That's why I'm going to stop it early. Thanks so much for Landon and Fenris for continuing to post to egg me back to make my own post as well. Again, sorry for dozing off ^^' After posting this I'm intending to make a post in UTBPS as well. @ Zero : Ah, sorry for not reading your stuff yet. But I didn't want to just brush all that text off and ignore it like I've done a couple times before. I'll edit this post with an actual response once I get my own priorities back in order!   |

Ah hi everyone! I haven't been on in so long (Or at least it feels like awhile to me haha). Anyway, just a quick post saying that I'll be on vacation from tomorrow until Monday so no posts in RP's from me until then. I was going to wait a bit to see what the others do in Pokemon before posting there again anyway. As for FoN, I haven't forgotten about it but I really just haven't had the motivation to post in it (A bit of writer's block I guess as well as being busy with other things). Anyway that's all I have to say, I hope everyone has been having a great summer!  |

@Zero - Alright, I said I would consider having a look at the RP's, since you asked, so here's my short breakdown on them. Like I said in chat though, I don't really like to critique RP ideas. I can offer my thoughts on it, but I don't have much in the way of suggestions for improvement. 1. This one seems a little bit too vanilla to me. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of personality that would make it stand out. 2. This one is a little better in relation to the point I made above, but I don't believe it would work out. The reason I say that is because the premise is very similar to an RP that Haseo started back in April of 2010 called 「Angelus Projectã€. It had the same set up, albeit with military personnel doing the hunting. The reason it didn't work is because dividing the cast is pretty much a death sentence. There is always 1 team that winds up with nothing to do which causes the people to drop the RP. In Haseo's RP, myself, Toyumi, Fenris, Henrietta and Ray spent a while having our characters discuss the situation. During that time, people such as yourself were basically just stuck waiting around for our characters to get rolling on the hunting aspect. By the time our characters touched down with their weapons ready, pretty much everyone on Refugee Aeternalis side had dropped and that essentially killed the RP on the spot. 5 Seeds Project had almost the same problem. The cast was divided into teams and very shortly after that 3 of the 4 teams had pretty much fallen apart from people dropping out and the remaining people having nobody left to RP with. 3. This one sounds like the Midnight Terror RP I used to run years ago. I don't really know what caused that one to fail. It may have been due to a lack of action. There's nothing particularly bad about the idea, it's just difficult to pull off since the style of the RP doesn't lend itself well to a lot of action. It's mostly about discussing what things mean and possible explanations for what is going on. Plus, you would run into the same problem I listed in #2 if you decide to let people pick sides. 4. All I really have to say about this one is that I find the RP's set in schools don't last that long. I don't really know why, although it might have to do with a lack of action, like the detective style I mentioned above. It could also be due to the overabundance of the school setting in anime. 5. This one seems the most plausible. Sword Art Online has an interesting premise, reminiscent of .hack, so it's probably the most likely to succeed as long as it is not too heavily influenced by those anime. @Toyumi - The others don't seem to be doing a whole lot in Pokemon. Granted, I only posted there last week. @Haseo - I already messaged you about your post. You are only involved in the Pokemon RP, which as I always state, moves at a crawl pretty much all the time. It's not a big deal. Under the Pale Blue Sky 2: Winds of Change - Alright, a few people have returned to posting in the RP. Ugo, Emiya, Temp and Destiny have made posts, so the RP is still alive for the time being. As for fast-tracking the ending, I still plan to stay the course on that decision. If I see another 1 or 2 return to the RP then I'll get everyone's opinion on whether or not to fast-track the ending or to go with something a bit more drawn out. Pokemon: To Live and Learn - I've started a battle between Neva and two Team Vanguard members for Fenris, Haseo, Shinji and Toyumi's characters. Victor is elsewhere for the time being, so I will likely be keeping him out of that battle in order to give Shinji, Fenris and Haseo a chance. I have no clue as to whether or not Shinji is still going to take part in the RP. I messaged him back in June and he said he was still in it, but that school was keeping him busy. It's been nearly 2 months since then, so I don't know what's going on. For the time being everyone should act as if his character is still present (such as when you refer to the size of the group of trainers and such). If there's still nothing by the end of the September then I will assume he has dropped it. Finally, I'm going to give Toyumi the choice of what to do at this point. You can either join the battle against Neva and the two Team V Members with Shinji, Fenris and Haseo, or you can give chase to the elderly woman. If you decide to go after the elderly woman, then you will catch up with her at the hanger area where Victor is currently located. This is the same place that Vurtia is being transported to (the elderly woman is headed through the hallway while Vurtia is being transferred via a tunnel to the hanger. I'll leave it up to you to decide on what to do since Adele is currently located behind Neva and her mooks, so they aren't blocking her way. Also, if you go after the elderly woman then keep in mind that the hanger is partially on fire at the moment due to the Ninetails that Victor let loose. The End of the World and After - I'm glad to see this RP is starting up again, I really missed it. The post I made today was mostly to set my character up for the Epiphanies. It was kind of poorly written though. Karin basically just comes out of nowhere with all of that stuff and it's pretty much completely unprovoked. It was all I could come up with though without having Sven explain his realization. Forces of Nature - No activity here yet, so I've got nothing to discuss about this one.    |

Sorry for the sort of overdue post, but anyway I'm back from vacation now. However, I'm going to be busy for at least the next 3 weeks or so getting ready for university and getting settled in there, etc., so don't expect to see me post much in RP's. I'll try to make a post in Pokemon before I go, since I really don't know when exactly I'll be able to post again once school starts. As for FoN, I haven't abandoned it yet but I will be going on hiatus with it since I left it off at a good spot, and it would be easier for me to pick it up when I'm settled in at school rather than to get it into the action only to stop posting in it for awhile. Sorry in advance for both leaving FoN on hiatus and my future possibly really late posts in Pokemon! [Edit] Whoops, probably not going to manage a post in Pokemon before I leave. Ever since I got back from vacation I've been busy getting stuff together and going to going away parties and whatnot. I might actually have time to make a post next week though, since it's the first week of classes and I doubt that I'll have that heavy of a workload to not be able to make a post (I'm only doing 14 credits so in reality it shouldn't be too bad at all, especially since all the classes I'm taking are just going to be tougher versions of the high school equivalents I already went through). Anyway, sorry for not being able to make a post in the past week, and I'll try to get a post out for Pokemon as soon as possible! If you need to go on without me for whatever reason though then assume that Adele went to chase the woman and join up with Victor, since that was what I'm planning on doing in my next post. |

@Toyumi - I wouldn't worry about it. You, Haseo and Shinji all seem to be busy with school until after the Labor Day weekend/first few days of September, so the RP isn't likely going to move until then. Fenris seems to be having trouble coming up with a post, so it doesn't look like it will move until then. |

@All - Sorry for going dark for so long everyone. I've been on a long term job for the company the past few months. That and the fact that I noticed the RP's were not moving kept me out of gendou for a while. @Toyumi - Sorry for wasting your time, but I guess I have to drop out from the RP. @Jon - I'm still in UTPBS, just give me some time to read up on what I've missed so I can post to catch up   |

Hello everyone! Long time no see here, how is everyone? I think I managed to fit into the mold of uni life so far, it's been a lot of fun but I've also been really busy. And I have an essay due on the 20th as well as an exam in another class, so I don't think I'll be able to post until then, but of course we'll see what happens. I might procrastinate >.< @ Jon- Well like I said in my last post here, if it does come to the point where you have to move on the RP and I didn't post yet then just assume that Adele chased after the woman rather than join in on the Pokemon battle. @ Roxas- I figured as much. The RP is pretty much done anyway since I don't think I'll have the time to continue it (Or manage any other RP for that matter) while I'm at uni. |

@Toyumi - That's too bad, but I guess it can't be helped if your busy. As for Pokemon, I was putting it off until September rolled in because you, Shinji and Haseo were all in kind of the same boat when it came to school prep getting in the way. I don't really know how to proceed without a post from Fenris, Haseo or yourself, but I guess I can do it like you suggested and simply state that Adele has chased after the elderly woman. I'll try and get that post done tonight (since FFXIV will be down for maintenance anyway >.<). @Roxas - It's good to see that you're still around, but I don't expect UtPBS2 to go much further. It's been on it's last legs for a few months now, ever since everyone just kind of up and disappeared. I was going to try for a cop-out ending, but I'm not sure if that will work out either. I'll look at possibly making another post in that one tonight as well. |

Only active ones I know are Mirrors, The End of the World and After and The Pokemon Rp Not really complaining, but just wondering why...is there something that I dont know?  |

@Misha: Hi there, welcome to our... remaining RPers community XD Well, the ones that you applied but without response, are obviously... dead, without any sign of continuation, either their RP master left or the RPers dropped off from it. Check the date of the post being made, and you'll find out that the date is quite old. Nothing big happened though, there are used to be a lot of RPers, contributing here and there, but as the time goes, people left, presumably moved on to reality and never returned... Thus, the Gendou City goes slower and slower, until today. Yeah, it's kind of sad to be honest, but well, nothing can be done now, I suppose... Maybe the new generations isn't fond of RPing, and the lack of traffic to this isn't helping too >.> Despite all this bad news, one formula proved to be effective, and that is having a small cast extends RP lifespan :x And oh, if you want to make a divider in your RP post, use <"hr">, minus the quotation marks. It keeps the page neat :x   |

@Misha - Same as what Emiya said, also welcome. The three RP's you listed are the only ones active and of those three, Mirrors is the only one that is accepting. End of the World is trying to maintain a small cast, so that's been closed, while I closed Pokemon ages ago for the same reason. Granted, if you had any interest in joining the Pokemon RP then let me know. Currently there are only 5 members, but really only a few of those 5 post very often. The only thing is that the Pokemon RP moves incredibly slowly. It is a shame, but like Emiya said, there just doesn't seem to be as many people these days interested in the RP section, so it's pretty much just the die-hards that are left. The biggest reason I've seen for people disappearing has been the shift to College or University from High School. Quite a few active RP members in the past 2 years or so have moved on to post-secondary. |

Hey guys guess who's back? Well, sort of. University life is the life for me, I love all of my classes, and I've met so many people and made a ton of friends... But it's so busy! Just when I think I get a bit of a break it's back to the usual business soon enough. I'm especially going to be busy these next couple of weeks with back to back projects and exams until November 22nd :/ So yeah sorry I just went and disappeared for a month or two or however long it was (And Pokemon X certainly didn't help this absence at all haha). I'll see if I can get back into the swing of things, but until then, I really hate to say it but just consider me as on hiatus. I really don't have any sort of posting schedule and I'd rather just say I'm on hiatus rather than leaving everyone with empty promises of posting and whatnot. I'll be on winter break starting December 18th, and I won't be working during that time so I'll definitely be around more often then. |

@Toyumi - Good to see you're still out there though. I saw that there was no activity from you since like September. I was a bit worried. Anyway, I wouldn't really worry about activity. Pokemon pretty much stopped where it was. Haseo and Fenris might get a response in if you post, but I wouldn't worry yourself with trying to post at this point. I'm willing to continue it, but it does seem like everyone has lost interest at this point. |
