Lord JZ of the Enigma Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 What's slowing us down is currently the qualifier afterparty, which is meant for character development, though the biggest development is Josep's attempt at humanity, Leon's apparent thought that drinking makes him look cool, Aivea letting 91 use her,(which kaiba would rather die then let a card control him), Amber's surprising motherly qualities (at least when it comes to Leon and Josep)....where was I? oh yes.... The characters have had some development, but mostly "Hero" or "Anti-Hero" characters have development without action, "Villain" and "Tragic" characters need action to do anything, and right now, they don't have that.

Admiral_Stalfos19 Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Well, to be fair, Kaiba would be completely unaware of the possession, since he refuses to believe cards can even [i]do[/i] that. Aivea never believed it either until she conversed with Mr. Heartland, which partly explains why she never put any effort in resisting 91's efforts the [i]first[/i] time... that and her memories of what happened in her own time-line with the trip to Egypt. ... Anyway, I've only got one plot point at this stage, and that's chasing 89 with Aivea. And now I'm in a dilemma; I was pursuing a similar plot point in another YGO RP, where [i]my[/i] main character had to capture one of TheFinalFan's ones, and I tried to [i]pursue[/i] that plot point... only to wind up being accused of metagaming by TFF himself. I ended up deleting the post in question because I couldn't be bothered arguing my case against him, and the RP died shortly afterwards =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love of Ghibli Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Well yeah I guess us badies need a venue to display our badness the only problem I saw was that we are somehow still on day 3. I mean if the party thing happens this night is there some arbitrary deadline we aren't following because I thought everyone who was in this thing had registered and was in this thing (even though idk how people got so many heart pieces in what would have to be in a couple IC hours). No point in trying to start an entirely new string of actions of rich guy badness if I have to show up for this banquet on the same night right?

Merci Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 I think I'm going to blatantly show Tron's actions after my introductory post of him. Expect parachutes to malfunction and explode when he defeats opponents during the Duel Coaster, as well as erasing memories and placing fake ones in random characters during the Duel Coaster. His ability to go invisible could also be useful. Personally, this roleplay is severely lacking in a main antagonist. At first, it seemed that it was Seth and his Bacterian Overlord, but he's gone and turned to the light side of the force now. Dr Faker is well...cool, yet terribly inactive. Dorian seems to be the most active threat, but even his own personality admits that he's worried about the Numbers, and that he also doesn't know much :\ Therefore, this insane child entity known as 'Tron' - I shall portray as a dangerous and terrible threat, knowing all about the Numbers, relying on both magical powers and ordinary explosive means, and also insane enough to have looked up on all the twenty-four finalists, where everyone is within his design and defeat is impossible up to the very last battle. Also, he'll crash the party just like in the anime. That is my interpretation. [i][b]Prepare yourselves. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!![/b][/i] Um..Kohaku, this okay?

AkatsukiPride! Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 I agree with MI here. It's important to get a main antagonist up and running. Tron seems like the best bet, now that Drake is dead and Bacterian is being controlled by IV. I think the Tron Family should really step into the spotlight now, mainly being Tron. V and IV can be secondary antagonists, and we might need to contact Evilfusion and ask if he can relinquish control of III to someone else or to come back. Then, the Tron Family can become more important antagonists at this point. Any objections or ideas anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral_Stalfos19 Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Yeah, Tron's gonna be the best in terms of the main antagonist. I'm handling Faker's personality fine, but I just can't ever think of anything evil for him to actually [i]do[/i] at this stage, and in the meantime he's acting as a neutral... and not even a [i]chaotic[/i] one. In hindsight I should've shotguned III instead, considering I know how he's supposed to run now thanks to Fusion. ... Maybe I should ask him if he's willing to trade III for Faker :I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love of Ghibli Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Dorian isn't worried about Numbers its just that everyone having superpowers because of them is a tad annoying [quote name='Merciful Idiot' timestamp='1340298437' post='5960459'] Personally, this roleplay is severely lacking in a main antagonist.

I mean I'm trying not to metagame here by having him magically know how everyone can do everything under the sun because they gave their soul up to a card. As for the main antagonist 'm not against it... as I just find the entire Tron family frivolous at this point. We would just be throwing them in as another bunch of super-powered bad guys who are being introduced at the tail end of the tournament. Honestly, I thought IV was the perfect new main antagonist he came in perfectly as the old main antagonist was killed off (somewhat) and since that was the end of Day 2 his villainy has long been introduced. Dorian was never meant to be a main antagonist more like the Bakura of a series, clearly an antagonist but more low-key and such. Finally, you have Joesp who really could be considered an antagonist since we all are going to have to feel his dragon fire wrath because we all have numbers. To add Tron, V, and resurrect III (which I really don't understand because he died before the duel coaster anyway) just muddies up the water in my opinion. Also this seems to also distract from the question that we really should be dealing with. Who are the final 8 going to be after the duel coaster is over?

Lord JZ of the Enigma Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 the tournament will last a lil longer then believed, especially with the duel coaster still in the way....boy, I have quite a few episodes to catch up on, I'm at 31, out of...62 I think? either way, I hope to learn as much as I can for the story in general Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merci Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I just look at the previews and episode summaries. Quickens things a lot. Also, as for the final eight . . . . yeah. Tron's definitely getting in there, but some of the semifinalists will have to accept defeat. Don't try to asspull, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkatsukiPride! Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I only watch the English Dub. I couldn't really care less for Zexal. The only reason I even watch the English Dub is because Shark is cool and it can be funny at times. Otherwise, I hardly even like Zexal. The plot is ok...but the characters are mainly really poorly designed. I really hope the English Tron Family is good. If they're not, I'll probably just stop watching it. So in only up to like, episode 20, so I really have NO idea how the Duel Coaster works... As for the final eight, I hardly care if I get in there. I'd like Mikey to get in, but I really don't mind. So far, my predictions are: 1. Amber 2. Leon 3. Neo 4. Josep 5. Aieva 6. Chris OR Atsuko, I really can't tell. 7. Tron 8. Dorian??? Just a guess.

Admiral_Stalfos19 Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Aivea and Atsuko [i]also[/i] have to duke it out in the finals. If any character tries to defeat [i]either[/i] of them before they fight each other, then I will stab that character's owner over the internet with mah BIG-ASS SWORD!! You've all been warned :I ... Dr. Faker and Akuma, on the other hand, I'm willing to sacrifice if need be. I suggest that everyone with multiple characters [i]also[/i] decide which characters they're willing to sacrifice, so that each finalist spot is occupied by an actual [i]player[/i]. So anyway, that's Tron, Aivea and Atsuko that're definitely occupying finalist slots. The other 5 will have to be sorted by everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love of Ghibli Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Story wise this what I think would be the best match-up Amber vs. Dorian Leon vs. Joesp Aivea vs. Atusko Tron vs. [anyone actually its simply Tron fodder] This way its pretty good since super mega powerful tron can probably either kill 91 with tron magic or the person who killed 91 (or however that is supposed to play out) and on the other end the good guys can square off against the two people who want to take the numbers.

Admiral_Stalfos19 Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 ^Technically there [i]is[/i], but we have to wait for evilfusion to make a reserve first. Y'know, since he controls III.
