Ga'Hoole OOC
« on: April 30, 2014, 11:28:11 pm »
Alright, first off, this isn't an RP, or not one yet. I may convert this into an OOC later. But my point is...

EDIT:
IT'S AN RP NOW!


Would anybody be interested in a Guardians of Ga'hoole based RP?
I'm not talking anthro owls, I mean legit owls. A few things should be noted:

1. This is based off the books, not the movie. Please try to have a basic understanding of the books, maybe having read at least one, but if you want to try and play without it, I guess that's fine by me, but it's going to be awkward for everyone who has read them.

2. This will take place in the Ga'hoole tree in the time during books 7-8. That being said, SPOILER ALERT! Well, POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT!

3. These rules are kinda all centered around "BASED ON BOOK", aren't they? Anyway, I can't promise that your owl won't meet an unfortunate end, but, if you play it safe, like you would in real life, than if should be all cool. Besides, there are tons of owls in the tree anyway, always room for new characters.


If there are any questions, go ahead and ask them, any suggestions, also fine, anything you need me to hear, really. Anyone who's got a good understanding, and/or have read the books, please tell me, as I feel like I'm going to be needing a lot of people to play characters from the book.

It has come to my attention that most people who have read this series haven't read much of it. So my question to the few of you who are interested is if you want the RP to begin around the time of a different book.

If anyone's interested, PLEASE say so. So far I'm getting the impression that the me, T-Yoshi, and whtwolf are the only ones that are even vaguely interested. If not enough people like the idea, I'll be taking the thread down.

It sounds nice, but I am going to be so busy this month and next month that even my new RP is getting really dusty.

Maybe if the three of you were the only ones interested, you could make it sort of a side story from the books? Like the adventures of 3 friends before, during, or after the events of a certain book? ^-^

I'll be naming T-Yoshi as my AGM. Also, change of plans, since most people haven't even gotten past book three, I say we just start at the beginning of the series, and go along side it's timeline.

EDIT:
Given, I will probably throw in a few extra things to do here and there.

I suppose I could join this - I've never read the books, but I have them lying around, I could read along as we go.

One question, though:

Here's a list of book characters that are up for grabs. (Not sure if we'll actually be letting simple players control these guys, but just letting you see the options you'll have. If anyone feels like they could do one, than please tell me.

Barran
Twilight [T-Yoshi is considering]
Gylfie
Ezylryb
Elvan (possibly)
Bubo
Sylvana
Otulissa

Do we have to use one of these characters, or are original ones okay?  Not sure how well I'd be able to do a character from something I've never read before. :-[

You're already making an original character... I'm not making an RP with a list of characters you can choose from...  :D

(this may be subject to change later)

Name: Sezod

Gender: Male

Species of Owl: Elf Owl

Appearance: Fairly unassuming, nothing particularly standout

Backstory: Hailing originally from the desert of Kuneer, Sezod has taken off from his home, after the disappearance of his sister - who is extremely knowledgeable on flecks, which Sezod knows nothing about beyond the name - to search for her, having only heard rumours about "the Pure Ones" - a phrase unfamiliar to him - to go on (he was away from the nest when it happened, and thus didn't personally encounter them himself).  He is well-meaning, loyal and determined, but sheltered and naive, unaware of many of the ways outside of his home, and not fully understanding of the dangers lying ahead of him in his search...

(edit - changed up the backstory slightly)

Name: Ansin (AKA "Bloodsobber")
Gender: Male
Species of Owl: Barn Owl
Appearance: A scar on either side of his face, starting somewhat above his eye, and moving downward, going over the corner of his eyes. Eyes are stained a bloody red in the corners, where the scars pass over the eyes. Backside of body stained blood red, the color spans his entire wingspan, up to the back of his head and down to tail feathers.
Backstory: Born in the Forest Kingdom of Tyto, he awoke one day, a mere 2 months old, to his parents struggling to defend their nest from a small group of Pure Ones. His entire family died that night, except for him. In a blind rage, he attacked the Pure Ones, only to be easily subdued. He awoke in the custody of the Pure Ones, and was raised as their soldier. He spent most of his life with them, knowing only that he wanted to leave. He actually had a decent living in the Pure Ones; he had a mate, a fairly high ranking position, even a clutch of eggs on the way. Then, he simply flew off, in the middle of the day, never to be seen by the Pure Ones again...

Name: Rivena
Gender: Female
Species of Owl: Spotted Owl
Appearance: Fairly standard for a Spotted Owl.
Backstory: She was raised in Ambala, like any normal chick. She had a great life in her birth nest, and she eventually left, to go find a mate. She had always been very friendly and helpful. So, of course, when she saw the Barn Owl covered in blood flying past her hollow, she flew up to ask if he was ok. Rivena was also quite stubborn, and, after having told her to go away for the eighth time, Ansin simply gave up, and told her the truth. Rivena, being intrigued by this owl, stayed with Ansin.

Now... I believe we should start this during the events of the first book. I also think we should steer clear of St. Aggies until we get to the Great Tree, as it'll be a pain to get you out. Even when we get to the Great Tree, you probably won't be seeing much action there.

Now, Werecat, should I assume that Sezod is from Kuneer? He is an Elf owl after all.

Name: Nidine
Gender: Female
Species of Owl: Short-eared Owl
Appearance: A bit elongated for her species, ashen gray feathers with black wingtips, white on her face and chest. Right eye is yellow, left eye is blue.
Backstory: Nidine's never really knew her actual mother. Her father raised her with help from a tyto owl who she thought was her mother. Her brothers, stepbrothers, and her always fought for their parents attention which led to Nidine picking a lot of fights with them which eventually led to her and her eldest stepbrother tumbling out of the nest and crashing on a heavy branch resulting in a foot injury which is why she usually perches on one foot. After the fight, she set off on some travelling partly hoping she'd find her real mother and partly to leave the past in the past...

And there's my unfamiliarity with the series already shining through, because I don't know what that is. :-[ But, yeah, let's go with that. :P
