Futuristic The Last City

Right, sorry, slipped there. The picture confused me xD
I picked a picture of a hoodie with a smiley mask though xD


I'm just messing with you, I can kinda see how you made the mistake.
 
Also, I think we're off to quite a start. A massive blow to the Enforcers, an evicted teen, and an emotional-yet-somehow-holding-it-together Enforcer. Looks promising.
 
[QUOTE="The Shadow Realm]Yes, it does look quite good for a start. I'm just terrible at intro posts.. I don't know why, it just seems weird to me.
Government decides whom wants whom to live or die. This time they decided to let her live, although it's still not morally right.

Ah, I see.
 
I could edit this first post for all eternity and still not be happy with it, but I figured it was time to let go. I am sure I will be thinking of better ways of phrasing everything in the next couple of hours, but there is a time to work on a post and a time to post it. So there you go.

*collapses* Fuck, you just out-wrote me. Right when I felt so proud of mine, too...

Quite the opposite, you did in 4 paragraphs what I needed 2000 words to tell. Trust me, it is in the trimming down of the words that the skill of a true writer becomes visible, and on that front I am incredibly inexperienced :)

I love your post. I had such a hard job on mine as Ana is my Characters friend and I didn't want to do alot without her.

You're a fine writer though :P (Fine as in great.)

Im still proud of my post. I think it's the longest one I've written.
You should feel proud, that's why I upvoted it!

You're making me blush... But thanks, anyway. Your post was still quite good.

[QUOTE="The Shadow Realm]Holy shit, that's quite a bit of time.

Yes, well, ever since I had my character in mind I started to think about that first post. For me, the first post tells more about a character than the sheet. It's usually my favourite post to write, because I get to explore my character. Also, since I have a job that I have to travel to now, I have quite a bit of time to think about this stuff while I'm on my bike. So it wasn't all actively writing, but shaping the character and figuring out how to bring that character to life usually takes me a bit of time :)

I wish intros were my favorite, to me they're my poison.

WAAIIIT @The Shadow Realm I absolutely forgot, can I add a longsword to my character?
Sure, just add it the your character sheet.

You know, now that I see it, you're right. People will judge you by your first line and your last, anyway. Might as well make them good.
 
Just realised how bad my post was. I just deleted it and am going to post a new one. It's very early where I live, so it'll probable be doing it in a few hours. Sorry.

I think the idea is there, but the execution was... Well, let's just say it needed work.

Wait, what? Why? I thought it was a very strong portrayal of your character's thoughts and feelings.
 
[QUOTE="The Shadow Realm]Gonna delete my starter and try again tomorrow morning as it's complete shit.
Goodnight.

Hmm, I kinda feel like a big bad wolf now, scaring everybody into thinking they should write two pages of text before they have a significant post. Please tell me that is not the case.
