Sorry i fainted u_u

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 4:30 am

Oh I'm glad you're ok though. :O

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 4:31 am

I invited @Fade but I don't know if she'll come. :/

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 4:34 am

Ok so I kind of want your help. :I

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 4:46 am

Oh no did you leave again! D:

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 4:46 am

I'm alone :'(

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 4:58 am

Ok...
Maybe we'll talk tomorrow around 6:00pm ET

RanchRobin

31 Jan, 2017, 5:04 am

So sorry. My mom had me get ready for bed -_- hope you are still here...

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:06 am

Yo! What's up? ^w^

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:07 am

Ahh, looks like I just missed Alk... Sorry. >~<

RanchRobin

31 Jan, 2017, 5:08 am

Yeh...

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:10 am

Shoot the moment I leave everyone comes. :/

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:15 am

And when I come everyone leaves

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:15 am

WHYYY! T-T

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:16 am

I'm sorry! Dx

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:16 am

Kinda funny at the same time, that coincidence... 'xD

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:18 am

Lol and now you left on me XD

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:21 am

Nope

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:21 am

Nope

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:22 am

I'll
Go get my pc now

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:22 am

Hey! Sorry for online comments. xP

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:23 am

No I'm just on my phone:P

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:23 am

And it's annoying to type on a small screen

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:24 am

We needs Day. D:

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:25 am

Ohh, okay. Day vanished again, which means she might have gone to bed. xP I'm able to stay a little while longer, so I'll wait with you to see if she returns.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:26 am

Ta da!

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:26 am

I'm on my pc now :P

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:27 am

*applauds* XD

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:28 am

Btw I wanted to ask day this too but she's gone so I'll ask her tomorrow but

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:29 am

What do you think the other colored pouches should do?
(The ones I gave riptide)

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:29 am

You can leave the comment now and she can reply once she sees it. Just a suggestion, we can wait if you'd rather.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:30 am

I'll try that :O

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:34 am

@Fade?

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:34 am

Oh sorry I missed your comment!

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:36 am

Hmm, so the blue one turns him into a ghost, right? ... How many pouch colors does he have?

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:39 am

Yeah the blue one does.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:39 am

And I'm thinking around five?

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:40 am

I haven't done any concept art yet :U

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:41 am

I also want to nerf them a little so they're not too overpowered

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:42 am

Awesome, alright. So I'm thinking that, since colors express different emotions, each powder could leave a spell that reflects the emotion of its color.
For example, red is often acquainted with anger, so the red powder could summon fire cause an explosion.

What colors have you chosen, and what emotions do you see them with? (I ask for your opinion so that things fit according to how you like it)

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:44 am

I was thinking like red yellow green blue and purple maybe?
What do you think?

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:45 am

Oops, meant *summon fire or cause and explosion* up there

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:45 am

Like the yellow could be mustard gas?

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:46 am

Yeah, that'll be good. One way that I like to make sure a character's powers are toned down is to keep their range of abilities under one element or concept. For example, since Riptide is basically a ghost, you could base each powder's effect on that concept. Maybe one powder summons an ethereal substance that obscures an opponent's senses to allow Riptide a quick getaway. Things like that.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:47 am

@Fade watch out for the word police - in fact I'm hiding from them. O~O"

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:49 am

Ooh, that would be interesting. However, in roleplays, I feel like it's a bad idea to have abilities that affect another character's health in ways like sickness (sometimes even poison). I know I would prefer it if my opponent had fire or a sword over venom, since cuts on my character are easier to fix.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:50 am

Lol, the word police? XD

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:51 am

That sounds cool. :O
I was also thinking that the other bottles could do things like temporally change his shape so he could blend with the environment. E.i he's in a town and he changes into a human.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:51 am

Yeah, I like those colors. If you want, I could give an ability suggestion for each color, although it'd help if you tell me what theme(s) or element(s) you want to base them off of.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:53 am

Oh, that'd be cool. For that idea I'm thinking an illusion instead of an actual physical change would be safer, or it's a very temporary shift. By having too wide a variety of powers, your character becomes OP which nobody likes.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:54 am

Another thing so that I'm not spamming these and to make it fair each bottle will only have a few uses until the substance is gone. And it would take awhile until it replenishes, like a month or a week.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:55 am

That's definitely a good way to keep his powers under control, I like that.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:55 am

Like he'll use them in extreme emergencies

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:56 am

I was thinking each effect will only last about an hour maybe even longer. :/

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:57 am

Riptide you too op must neeerf!

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:58 am

Mostly in fight I think I'll stick to close combat

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 5:58 am

Oh, so the effect that he leaves like mustard gas will only last for a little bit? I think that'd be okay then.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 5:59 am

Yeah let me actually look up how long it goes on for.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:00 am

Alright, so I'm going to list out what we have so far:

Blue: Turns Riptide into a ghost

Yellow: Produces mustard gas

And then we have red, green, and purple. Do you want me to give suggestions for the remaining colors?

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:05 am

Ok so mustard gas works like this
-It can stick around for few hours or maybe a few days.
-the longer you are exposed to it the more severe the effects are
-When exposed your eyes, skin digestive and respiratory system are effected

http://science.howstuffworks.com/mustard-gas3.htm

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:06 am

Yes please! :D

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:09 am

Neato. The only downside about having abilities very relative to science is that (and I've learned this the hard way,) nobody else is going to understand what it does. When you use an ability that takes an amount of scientific knowledge to understand, others will react in a way that they shouldn't and suddenly everything goes wrong for you. Just a little warning if you choose to do the mustard gas.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:09 am

Alright then, I'll write a thing of. It might take a few minutes.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:09 am

*out

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:10 am

Man I should know more about this science stuff I'm taking friggen chem :Y

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:12 am

Yeah I know but I get more excited when my ocs are more realistic to real life things

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:14 am

But in his information ref I'll go over what each jar does and they're ups and downs
Like with mustard gas Riptide could also hurt himself and his friends with it so I would have to be more careful with that

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:17 am

(Still typing for the color abilities)

Yeah, I like doing that too. Although a character I adopted from Kjumper ( #FGVarun) has only the element of water, I expanded his abilities as far as they could by following the flexibility of the chemical properties of water. However, if you're going to have a power that has specific side effects, you'll have to tell exactly what it does or people will get lost and start breaking rules.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:24 am

Red: Commonly associated with rage and aggression. Because of this, I could see the red powder as a last-resort kind of weapon, so it would typically be the most powerful out of them all. My first thought is triggering explosions.

Green: Gives a very stable, natural feel. It is very common to be associated with nature, but for the sake of not being OP, I'll avoid that. I could definitely see the green powder creating poisonous gas, but that's so similar to the mustard gas that one or the other would have to change. I'll have to think more about this one, unless you have suggestions.

Purple: Carries with it a very mysterious, dangerous aura. For that reason, the purple powder would be great for creating illusions such as turning Riptide into a human. It would only be a trick on the eyes (otherwise he'd be too OP), but it would fool enemies for whatever purpose he has.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:26 am

Yeah not everyone interested in chem. :/
The reason why I added these is so that next time some tries to overpower they're chara to the point where close combat doesn't work like at all. (E.i It did nothing to the crooked moth) Though there will be places where he can't use his jars at all. Like if he was put in a cage and it was magic so his ghosty jar didn't work

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:29 am

I feel that since I already have yellow for a splash attack I don't really need any more jars for combat. Hmmm :L

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:31 am

Maybe I should discard one color for that reason.

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:34 am

I also want to turn riptide into a human for haha because he hates them, and would make him more insane? Like he might consider to take his own life though idk. Your right I do have to pick and choose, -he can't have everything

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:35 am

Maybe I should just draw him as a human and not consider it cannon? Eh lollol

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:36 am

Yeah, I get that. And you know, if somebody is breaking the rules by being OP, and they don't stop when you tell them, then you have all right to go OP back at them. XD

If you think that's best then alright.

Also, I hate to say it, but it's really late here and I gotta get up early, so I need to leave now. I won't be back until the evening, but I'll read up whatever I miss here once I return.

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:37 am

If you don't want to risk being OP in the roleplay, then making his human form non-canon would be best. I'm very curious to see what he'll look like. XD

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:38 am

Ok see ya around 6:00pm ET

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 6:39 am

Alright! Thanks for listening to my advice!

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:41 am

Gonna put this out here for tomorrow but I'm probably only gonna use two or three jars to make him less op

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 6:42 am

Must NEEEEERRRRFF

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 10:46 pm

Hoi I'm here a little early but that's fine

FadingGlory

31 Jan, 2017, 11:44 pm

Hi! I'm not home yet (I'm on my sister's phone), so I'll probably disappear soon but then be back half an hour later. Should we contact Day once more to make sure she remembers to come?

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 11:50 pm

Yep, yep

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 11:51 pm

I'm also working on finishing that collab

Alkaline

31 Jan, 2017, 11:51 pm

Dreamcatcher was bugging me so I drew his dreamer form instead :/

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 12:13 am

Hi!

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 12:17 am

Hoi day!

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 12:17 am

I think I might be done with the collab tonight :D

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 12:18 am

It's not perfect but I try.:0

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 12:35 am

just finished Eira only 6 more! :)

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 12:36 am

Oh and @Fade if you don't like the way your chara looksI promised I'll make it up to you some how. :O

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 12:56 am

guys?

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:11 am

Sorry, girl issues. im back...

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:17 am

Oh let me guess

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:17 am

Your cycle?
If you need any help we can talk about it:3

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:19 am

My sisters just got theirs so I have to help them as well XD
O.o

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:30 am

Anddd I'm alone :/

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:30 am

lol its okay. something not normal going on with it... in2hours it was as much 10 hours would take... im really scared :'0

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:34 am

Well you may be scared and I may not have a disorder but I did have to deal with very bad cramps

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:35 am

Every time it started I would be in immense pain (My older sister has it worse)

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:35 am

But I don't think of it as a problem any more

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:38 am

I think of it as a gift from God. Some girls don't even have one, and that means they can't have their own kids! :l

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:38 am

Well, it is a lot with a little or no cramps...

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:38 am

True.

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:39 am

Very true

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:40 am

I say to myself every time it happens, yes it's miserable, yes I could live without it, I either let it effect my life or I don't. Why would I let it keep me from having fun?

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:43 am

True, but with the coughing going on... I "leak" every time i cough -_- its mainly annoying and disgusting.

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:44 am

I feel like even though we bare this burden, God will help us get through it. :D
It's a test, besides you'll stop having them when you're old enough. :0

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:45 am

Yeah I hate it when I just start leaking, -it's the same for mucus too. :>

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:46 am

But if it makes you feel better I'm almost done with the collab :D

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:47 am

Also we girls are special because we get to have these really actually extraordinary experiences. :)

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:48 am

Very true. Just explaining how annoying it is, makes me feel a bit better. So, how did you come up with RipTide's species? Was it Zanerak? I forget.

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:49 am

It came naturally

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:50 am

I was doing math one day and then I doodled a little and that's how they were created. :]
I think I still have the drawing somewhere :O

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:50 am

okay

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 1:53 am

They are very cool :3

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:53 am

So what do you think Riptide's bottles should do?

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 1:54 am

Aw thanks they're one of my favorite creations ^w^

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 2:00 am

Make things slowly deteriate? idk xD

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 2:01 am

My favorite creation has to be #ZeranaSF's and Day the #SunFury x3

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:02 am

Yeah I think those are your best to :D

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:03 am

Almost done eeeee ^o^

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 2:05 am

Done. with. what? 0w0

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:08 am

The collab! It's finished! I'm uploading it now :O

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 2:10 am

oh yeh :D

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:22 am

Hi! :D Sorry for disappearing, I didn't think I'd get stuck for so long. xP

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:26 am

@Day Glad you like it ^w6
Oh hi @Fade I just finished the collab! :D

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:28 am

Back to more important things

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 2:30 am

Hey @Fade! How ya doing?

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:30 am

@Day yup :)

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:31 am

epic ponytail fail XD

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 2:32 am

lol nah it looks good :3

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:34 am

I actually have a shirt like that, but the colors are kind of off.

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:35 am

@Alk: I see it! You did awesome! And you look super cute too. ^w^
And hi @Day! I've been pretty good, albeit tired. ^v^

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:37 am

@Fade Omg I'm so glad you all like it! :D

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:40 am

Ok so Fade?

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:40 am

And Day

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:41 am

Ooh, that's awesome! I've never looked good in plaid/flannel. xP

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:44 am

Sorry if my replies are slow, I'm trying to get a drawing done plus I'm super tired. TvT

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 2:46 am

Yes?

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:46 am

I love plaid OwO
It's one of my favorite shirts! :D

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:47 am

Alright so I was originally gonna give riptide five bottles but I feel that will make him too op, so I bumped it down too three

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:48 am

Alright then, that'd be good.

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:48 am

Pfft my comment didn't even post. TuT

I think that'd be good!

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:49 am

The blue one turn him into a ghost
The yellow produces mustard gas
And I'm think the last one should be like some sort of dust.?

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:52 am

@Day I was telling Fade it'd be cool if Riptide had a human form but we both agreed it might be too op. So I'm thinking of drawing him a non-cannon human form?Would you like to see it?

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:53 am

Oh it did, nvm. X'D

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 2:54 am

Maybe the dust can be used for creating a mist that obscures an opponent's senses so that they can't smell or see him? I might have already proposed that idea, so sorry if I did

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 2:56 am

Well I was thinking more for close combat like at the beginning of a fight he'll through it towards the opponent to cause a quick distraction?

FadingGlory

01 Feb, 2017, 3:00 am

Ooh, maybe. That'd be cool.

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:01 am

I'm gonna do some concept weapon designs as well

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:04 am

Human forms are aloud, as long as they arent all assassin's creed op xD I hate that game btw. just making a point

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:04 am

Shoot I can't find that blade I want to use

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:07 am

Never play AC but it look's kind of cool. :P

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:08 am

yeh

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:09 am

I think what I'll do is make him a human form (because he hates them) And leave it up to another rp member if they want to turn him into one by using magic idk :/

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:10 am

that is up to maroosimun to do xD

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:10 am

My older brother has a play station but we don't have AC

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:10 am

other members with that power isnt aloud becuase it's too op

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:12 am

Lol it sounds like he would do something evil like that,. xD
It would drive Riptide insane to

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:13 am

Found the blade I want for him! :D

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:20 am

awseome!

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:21 am

yeh, the thing is, he has to be near riptide always or his powers will just stop. all his damage stops once he leaves. so poor riptide indeed XD

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:24 am

O.o so hehas to be near Riptide in order for him to be human? I got that right?
Btw the sword I want to use is called the khopesh

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:27 am

Wait no wrong one it's called the shotel XD

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:29 am

Where did @Fade go?

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:37 am

no clue

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:37 am

but yeh he has to be near xD

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:42 am

:O

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:44 am

What do you think @Day, do you like the shotel?

RanchRobin

01 Feb, 2017, 3:50 am

Yeh, i'd say so! :D

Alkaline

01 Feb, 2017, 3:53 am
