Problems/solutions by TheUn-noticedKohai

-First off Destria is a place for fairness and equal oppertunity, as well as a story based rp and the environment is medival fantasy. Slowly destria has started becoming a bit of a mess and you cant tell what it is anymore so now i gotta crack the whip. Heres the problems and some of the solutions I have
Race:
I made a simple array of races due to me being uncreative. There are Dwarfs, elfs, hybrids, dragonfolk, and humans. I made it like this because they were simple. Now currently theres a bunch of races that domt make any sense. I let some of them pass because i believed they were animal like so i catagerized them as hybrids despite what the actual race was. But god like people who have god like powers arent allowed Im sorry but I cant allow that. Now I hear someone sayin but kohai what about Serah? You made her the oracle of the gods, well you see thats for story purposes, im still debating whether I should keep her.
Solution:
-Please change your characters race
-Talk with me and we can possible work something out
-characters powers shouldnt be god like, they can beloeve theyre god but do not make them god.

Favorite land:
I closed vepira first because it ran qay ahead of the other lands population wise. So as a temp solution I closed it. Now afai ran ahead by a land slide so I closed it and reopened Vepura. Now both have that problem. Im having a problem keeping all lands equal in population. I might have to close vepura again. #destriaRp #DestriaInfo

Why dont you keep a count on each land? I'm but that's what I got. Or make cities inside the lands?

TheUn-noticedKohai

But heres the thing I dont want to do that. All lands are equal. No land is considered evil. Now if youre going off of class for each land, each land has every class, same goes for race. You just gotta adapt your character to that land.
Solution:
-Closing off vepura and Afai
-Revising the other lands to make them more appealing

Population
Speaking of population Everyone seems to be joing the multiple characters club I started. I mean as lomg as you can handle controlling everyone and build their story as well as not forgetting any of the characters you made I dont see a problem. I have 5 characters each have different personallities and storys. Reason why I have 5 is because I can handle it and because I had a thing going where I would have a character from each land. Again I dont see this as a problem as long as you can handle the many characters as well as are able to continue to develope each and everyone of them

Ball
So the ball. Is going to be hard to control. Especially for people who type slow or who have a hard time replying. So Im going to put a small cap on how many characters you can control. The ball is two nights after all so not all characters have to be there night 1 you get what I mean?
Soultion:
-the cap of characters are 2-3 depending on how many characters you have.

Hopefully this fixes some of the problems we've been having recently. ^^"

I assume with the vepura situation, that people might have gotten confused thinking that that was the only continent open.

May i suggest making a tag for destria's rules? That way people can find and read them easily.

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 7:46 pm

This should prove very useful! The problem that I think is happening is that people see roleplay pictures connected to Destria, but instead of reading the rules, jump right to character creation. Which is what leads to some confusing situations ;-:

On the subject of the Blue Moon Ball. I possible option is to limit it to 1 character at a time, but allow them to have one character leave the ball after a conversation then switch to another. Because just saying, with so many posts, it will be next to impossible to follow 3 characters at once. Maybe 2 characters at the most?

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 7:48 pm

@Cookies

That is a very good idea! It would make it easier for people to access the rule pictures!
Maybe also a link to the continents races and classes too ^0^

And with serah, being the oracle of god makes sense, in a fantasy story or world, their's very likely ever going to be one very special person, it's pretty doubtable that oracles, warriors, or kids of gods are just going to be running around all over the place. Serah's the only person in destria that can do what she does, if someone makes such a argument in a story based rp, then they need to learn how fantasy storymaking works.

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 7:53 pm

@Cookies

EXACTLY! Serah is a character used by The Creator Of The Roleplay to help push story plot along. Without such a character, the story would stagnate and wander. She keeps us on our path. Also, her powers are not what I would say Godlike xD

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 7:57 pm

DO NOT remove Serah! She is necessary for story progression! Serah is what Gandalf was for Tolkien's Lord Of The Rings trilogy! Do not remove her!

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 7:58 pm

@Haiiro Of course, Continents, races, and classes are all still technically rules.

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 7:59 pm

@Cookies

Aye! Good point xD

TheUn-noticedKohai

19 May, 2017, 8:00 pm

Okay! So the tag to see all information about destria is #DestriaInfo !

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:01 pm

@Kohai

Awesome! Now things are all in order! No more confusions now hopefully xD

19 May, 2017, 8:03 pm

If you pick up any book
you'll see that there is the main character, and side characters.
But, you'll also find that somewhere in there is a character used to move plot.

They are known as:
"Plot Device(s)"

Akara is like our Chrom, and Serah is our plot device.

Even if you go to a tabletop roleplay, usually the gamemaster(GM) doesn't actually play as their own character, but use character units to move the plot around.

If there are Just gotta talk to me lol im not mean nor do I bite XD
-haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:06 pm

@Heishi

Eeeyup! Right on the mark! We can't lose Serah cause she is the plot device!

I have two girls. Manechi and michi who's race is rather specific do them being a closed species. Michi a petal babe and manechi a uh i forgot but ye. I didnt know exactly what they were i mean manechi is somesort demon but michi idk

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:08 pm

@Kohai

Okee Chief Kohai! ^0^
I'll remember that! :D

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:13 pm

@MadMax

Aye! But there are two things to consider.

Is it fair to have species only specific to you?

And did you ask @Kohai before creating said race/races?

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:13 pm

All good things to consider ^0^

TheUn-noticedKohai

19 May, 2017, 8:16 pm

Id stay longer to chat but I gotta get ready for graduation >_> its todayyyy

TheUn-noticedKohai

19 May, 2017, 8:17 pm

Theres a race for dragon type people. Also yes shes alright ^^

19 May, 2017, 8:18 pm

@Kohai

Aye! Congratulations on graduating! Seeya soon! And have fun! :D

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:22 pm

@Cotton

I was pretty sure Xharia was okay! @Kohai has confirmed such! So she is good to go into action! ^0^

Goal20

19 May, 2017, 8:24 pm

Reading MadMax's comment, i have the same "problem" i would say, my character is also a closed species that i made, i mean it could be related to elfs in some way though if that would help/be better? And about the home land, i'm very flexible and can just pick the one with the least amount of people really ^^ So yeah if there is anything i can do to help, i'd be happy to do so :D
Another question, about the ball, can my character go too since after reading your desc. i came to the understanding that it didn't happen yet and i would then make a pic with Lumi in her dress too :3

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:28 pm

@Goal20

Aye, and did you read the rules before attaching said character to #DestriaRp?

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 8:29 pm

@Max I have no idea about manechi, but with michi, (Forgive me if i get their names wrong ;-;) she would likely fit into the hybrid category. (sense hybrids are humans with animalistic traits)

koga are a open species by kimioka.

@Kohai, though i'm not a fan of character limit's at all, if you'd like to keep it more organized, you could go ahead & add one. ;-;

Also congrats!

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:30 pm

@Goal20

Because in making a character that is a ''Closed Species'' You have just made it impossible for anyone to play the same race as you. Which in unfair to everyone else.

Goal20

19 May, 2017, 8:35 pm

@Haiiro

I think i've read everything about it that i could find so far, hope i didn't missed anything
And it's true that it is a bit unfair, but like i said, she could also very well be an elf since she kinda looks like one (minus the tail but the rest should be fine i guess) and she doesn't really have any special race limited abilities too, only things a mage could do

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 8:36 pm

@Goal, I would say she fits dragon. in destria, (As far as i know) dragons have no specified way their supposed to look, in destria she would prolly be considered a dragon or hybrid, but you could still use her tag.

#Tnela for example is a dragon hybrid, and the only other dragon (owned by kohai) looks nothing like her.

Goal20

19 May, 2017, 8:38 pm

@Milk-and-cookies

Hmmm yeah now that i think about it, that would fit the best, so i'll go change that, also i uploaded a new pic that you might want to see *hint hint* xD

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:38 pm

@Goal

@Cookies actually has a good point. She technically fits some of the citeria for a Dragon. Blue hair. Pointy ears. She could be a dragon hybrid of sorts. Dragons vary in appearence too, #DestriaClaudiesa for example

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 8:40 pm

;-; i'm not sure if i'm confusing anyone or not but in short.

In destria she's a dragon/hybrid.

outside it's realm, she's still technically a illuma-something (;-; i keep forgetting everyones/things names)

I mean i highly doubt we'll see another dragon character like tnela with tree horns. So (I assume) all dragons would fall into that category, none of them turn into dragons as their powers (As far as i know) if that's a worry.

Kimioko/Kora

19 May, 2017, 8:41 pm

And Koga too, right? ^^'

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 8:42 pm

@haiiro xD i doubt blue hair is a criteria for dragons.

Goal20

19 May, 2017, 8:45 pm

I changed it, made her now part of the dragonfolk for this rp and outside she will still be an Illumicent (don't worry for forgetting the names, i'm the same lol)
And no, she can only use magic and has these dragon-like traits, but can't change into a dragon or anything like that

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:45 pm

@Cookies

Actually, alot of dragons have blue-ish hair. Dante, and Felicia both have blue hair. And their both Dragons. So it kinda seems like so xD

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 8:46 pm

@Kimi Cause koga are a open species, Likely?

xD But i'm not an admin, so kohai has say of whether anything i said is right or wrong.

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 8:47 pm

@Haiiro xD i guess dragons like blue hair?

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:47 pm

@Goal20

Cool! All is good! Thank you for not freaking out at me or anyone else! ^0^
In another roleplay a long time ago, someone freaked out at me xD

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:47 pm

@Cookies

Guess so? xD

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:49 pm

@Cookies

Oh yeah! And since we are both free at the moment, would you like roleplay? Our schedules have finally steadied I think xD

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:50 pm

@Kole#

Okee! I'm sure @Kohai will be very grateful! Thank you! ^0^

Goal20

19 May, 2017, 8:51 pm

@Haiiro

Why would anyone freak out about something like this? :O
That doesn't make any sense to me, so don't worry about that ^^ Oh but that also reminds me that you probably need to change your question under my Q&A now too, right? xD

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 8:53 pm

@Goal

Oh yeah! :D I should go do thar real quick! Thanks for the reminder! ^0^

Goal20

19 May, 2017, 8:55 pm

@Haiiro

Not a problem my friend :D I'm working on your part right now actually ^^ Oh and that also reminds me to ask how tall Lumen is :D

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 8:57 pm

@Haiiro I can try, I'm with goal atm, but if one of us (me or you) posts a new rp pic, (For ease of access) then i can easily keep track of both.

Haiiro

19 May, 2017, 9:00 pm

@Cookies

Nah! I can wait! I'm free all evening! ^0^ Finish that roleplay with @Goal since it was pre-planned! Just comment on one of my pictures when your finished! ^0^

Knoire_Vibez

19 May, 2017, 10:58 pm

@Kohai I left a few inquiries on your previous post, prior to the rp post ^v^ Some of which I already addressed ^v^ I hope your graduation went well, Congratulations ^v^

Uh, Hey i was wondering if i could put a human Dragon knight in Citrine? If not i'll change her to a reg knight!

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 11:23 pm

I honestly have no problem keeping track of multiple characters, (I've literally done it all my life) ._. it's just finding the time to post stuff for each is what i have a problem with. i wanted to add lucent as a ch

Milk-and-cookies

19 May, 2017, 11:26 pm

(I WASN'T DONE WRITING THAT!)
