Summer of the Samurai Roleplay Sign-Up/OOC Discussion

[Sebias of Redwall]

I hope you can, it would be nice if we started due to enough players rather than time.
Yeah. Hopefully. I'll ask around a bit.

[Jack the Quick]

Thanks, I think we'd all appreciate it.

[Jack the Quick]

I edited my villain, if you needed to look at it.

[Tungro]

It all seems good! (Thanks for letting me know)

I only have a little...so... *Shrugs*

[Tungro]

You make a character and basically write about their experiences, ect in the RP. Kind of like an open fanfic {if you are still unsure, feel free to look into some past ones}

[The Grey Coincidence]

Name: Katon
Age: 34 Seasons (so quite an old beast?)
Gender: Male
Species: Jerboa
Weapons: He commandeers one of the canons. But in close range he's got a katana.
Personality: He is honorable in his own way- that is he give his opponents the chance to run away before firing at them. Cold, distant and not much of a talker. Rather intelligent but also very arrogant.
Past: A member of the Jerboa clan with no qualms whatsoever about sacking Redwall. Because it's good for his clan.
Appearance: Short, wrinkled, old- is fond of scaled armor, which he wears over silk robes. A hygene freak.
That enough?

[Tungro]

Age: 34 Seasons (so quite an old beast?)

Pretty much (life expectancy in medieval ages was around 40s-50s)

[The Grey Coincidence]

Yeah, this guy's *old* hehehe

[Tungro]

Finally got all these done. (Any new players can request control of some)

Wedaln

I live closer than any one of you guys to Japan, but I know the least about their culture.
How ironic.

[The Grey Coincidence]

I only know about Japan because #Anime and I've written about it...
Also Tungro! Nice characters!

[Tungro]

I got into it through Shogun 2: Total War/Age of Empires then I got around to reading some great books about them/by them

[MathLuk]

I watched the Sengoku Jidai series by Extra History and BazBattles on YouTube.
I actually went to Japan for about five times, but I still know so little...
