Problems with Time line

[Emily Raven]

I guess time setting is the better word. But whatever.

I really like this thread, even with it's lack of members, and I knew our thread was going to be deleted, because we were just messing around anyway, and it didn't fit all the rules. So When I heard it got deleted I didn't care that much.

But What I really don't like is the time setting. Right after the last "Dreams Made Flesh". There's nothing that wrong with that, accept for the fact that there's not to much you can do in that time period, and it's very restrictive.

All I'm really asking for is about 10-50 years lenience So that we'll have more room to work with. Because let's face it, besides walking around the ruins and having a few rather boring discussions with some cannon characters what can you do?

Not only that but if it's only right after Jaenelle and Daemon's wedding than there isn't enough time to really to develop a suitable villain to substitute Dorothea and Heketah so that characters will have something to work against.

So will you allow us a few years so that infant characters can grow into better protagonists, and so new villains can be formed?

I agree... I think that the time line is a little weird.. especially since I tried to get Daemonar as a cannon character for the main purpose of roleplaying with Raven ( Satori ) and the main reason I created Ria was to be able to roleplay with Daemonar and Satori as having them watch her.. Please consider the above ^^ so that way I can get rping with Satori and Ria and Daemonar.. if not then I request another cannon character! * demands * lol thank you

Well, first off, Daemon and I have the beginnings of a plot in the making already. We just need more canon characters to sign up to get it started and on it’s way. Two canon characters and two original characters really isn’t enough to work it and get anything productive and exciting out of.

Adding 10-50 years onto the time line (or time setting), will mess up that plot. Morghann is pregnant, Kalush has a baby girl, Jaenelle and Daemon have to settle down... adding extra time could be a burden onto what Anne Bishop set into motion at the end of the last novel.

As for villains, you don't need it to be a later time to have any. At this time, with the current lack of members, just "walking around ruins and having a few boring discussions with canon characters" is all that really can be done. Setting up a character, improving RP ability, and figuring out what to do in some situations your character gets involved in is what really can be done now.

More members will come eventually, as I’ve been advertising the site and getting some affiliates. We just have to wait for any real plot to take shape, and until the site becomes more active. The time setting has nothing to do with real plot restrictions, just with character age and personality. Let the time and plot start to unfold before you ask about changing it.

And Ivy, because of the time setting Daemonar couldn’t be grown up. Then a lot of other characters would have to have children and other histories. Just wait and be patient for a plot, because yes, it will come eventually.

I would appreciate it though if I could have a second cannon character while the plot is developing.. I can't really do anything with the two occ and cannon characters I have in my name so I am a wasted account... so .. can I have a cannon character that would be deleted once the plot is interesting enough for me to create an occ character?

[Jaenelle Angelline]

You can do nothing with the two original characters? Honestly, I don’t believe you. Why not let your original characters meet new people, and create plots of their own? By the time this “temporary canon” got deleted, your other two characters wouldn’t know anything or be friendly with anyone.

Develop your two original characters, and spend time RPing as them. And, also, you certainly could be Daemonar. He’d just have to be a little kid like when the books left off. You’d be able to control his whole upbringing and childhood instead of just a pre-set adulthood. And, I must admit that from experience I know exactly how much fun it can be playing a child. ^_~

Acctually I'm gone too... I don't feel like fighting, nor do I feel like being bored out of my shorts. I'll check back every so often... I think...

[Jaenelle Angelline]

All right... that is your decision. I hope to see you back sometime soon.
