I'm interested . However, genuine question, since this is based on Legend of Korra, will Energy Bending be an option ?

 

[Karcen]

Would the air bender have to be from the tenzin family?

 

[Jannah]

Would the air bender have to be from the tenzin family?

Nope! Our host has clarified that Aang used spiritbending to create more airbenders.

 

[Karcen]

Yeah well looks like all the slots are filled or am I misunderstanding the slots?

 

[Jannah]

Earthbender and both Air Nation slots are not yet officially filled.

 

[Karcen]

yes but chatacters have been submitted for all three and it is kind of rude to try to take a wanted spot.

 

[Lady Warlock]

I am considering adding one more spot per nation because we have enough interest for it. Will be online within the hour and should have an update for everyone tonight sometime.

 

[Karcen]

Okay

Your characters are accepted.

It is not an option. Though there are characters in the show that can do it, there's no one who's sole ability is energy bending. It's a learned thing and right now, with the lore the rp already is built upon, there is no one to teach it to anyone else.

 

[Lady Warlock]

Alright. At the moment, we have one spot left and there are still a couple people who have expressed interest. Before I make any decisions, I would like to get a little bit of input from our current accepted group. Does anyone have any problems, thoughts or concerns that would arise if I were to open up one more spot per nation with two of them being bender spots and two of them being non-bender spots? I know that some of you ended up making characters different from what you intended because certain slots were already filled and I don't want you to feel like I'm taking an opportunity away from you.

I would love to receive some opinions on this. I would like to be able to make a decision before I go to work tomorrow if at all possible.

[Karcen]

Could make the extra people some kind of extreme specialist to not take from others but let them in perhaps.

 

[Lady Warlock]

extreme specialist

That puts the newcomers on a higher level than the originals and I'm not comfortable with that. All of the specializations are more difficult to learn and become skilled at than the original forms of bending are.

 

[Karcen]

By that I meant like they have one skill like can use one specific branch of a bending school but none of the others.

 

[Lady Warlock]

No because there is no canon evidence of that being a thing. Lin uses primarily metal bending, but she's very capable of earthbending.

I'm going to wait for feedback from my current rp group and go from there.

Please be patient.

Feel free to PM me your thoughts on the situation if you feel more comfortable sharing them there rather than in the OOC.

 

[Karcen]

No because there is no canon evidence of that being a thing. Lin uses primarily metal bending, but she's very capable of earthbending.

I'm going to wait for feedback from my current rp group and go from there.

Please be patient.

Speaking of cannon will Vaatu be a thing?

 

[Lady Warlock]

Speaking of cannon will Vaatu be a thing?

I have not decided that far ahead. Vaatu exists, for sure, but whether he will be an enemy within the rp is undecided at this point.

I generally don't like portraying canon characters so probably not.

 

[Karcen]

Well that is one bad ending gone given no one could stop him

 

[Karcen]

Well ill check back tomorrow to see if there are free slots

 

[Jannah]

No because there is no canon evidence of that being a thing. Lin uses primarily metal bending, but she's very capable of earthbending.

I'm going to wait for feedback from my current rp group and go from there.

Please be patient.

Honestly, the main issue I have with it is that it will be an odd number. I like the idea of there being one of each from each Nation. To keep this balanced we'd have to add two more slots to each and honestly I prefer smaller group RP's.

Noted.

Thank you for your input!

Since we've barely even started I'd say just follow a waiting list format for the first week or so while everyone's still meeting each other on Mr Turtle guy.

RPs often lose some players around the start, so having some interested parties on the backburner to fill any vacated spots is a practical solution to maintain momentum. Anyone who doesn't tend to vanish before the end of the Prologue often sticks around for a while

Of course, if others vote to just open more slots I'll go with the group, its just that a lot of RPs I've been in favor the waiting list solution to this kind of problem and its done wonders in the past.

 

[CelticHero37]

Lady Warlock I did something like that before. It did make things easier for people who wanted a spot in the RP, but it was noticeably more crowded when that was done. As much as I don't like leaving people out, I think GrieveWriter has a good suggestion.

I agree. I would rather keep the intimate group. They're more likely to last longer and that's what we're going for in the rp and out of the Rp.

Besides GrieveWriter is right. Usually some people drop out around the beginning. The waiting list is definitely the way to go with this.
