Re: OOc Chat 4: The Game Begins
Eh, it's coldly formal, which, given Kenji's relations with the villagers thus far (or lack thereof!) is actually a miracle of tact

Re: OOc Chat 4: The Game Begins
I'm going to be honest, everyone should write what their character should write.
That's the point of RP - to get into character. I don't feel we are guaranteed a happy ending.
Though I am a strong proponent of journey over destination in these games, perhaps as a side effect of basically never 'winning' one, so I guess my views are slanted on the subject.
I just really want folks to be courteous to each other OOC, even if not working to same goal IC.

Ended up going exactly with 'everyone should write what their characters should write'. Doesn't contribute to a good result. Doesn't contribute to a bad result either.
Of course, deciding for inaction is an action and has consequences. We'll see what those will be.

Free will has consequences, yes, but it is still worth permitting.
We may not always act for the greater good, but we can behave according to our honor.

Kaiu Tai is 48, Sora's 46, Anjing LOOKS to be in her 50s (with a bit of Kujo's Day Spa Special Treatment, maybe older), and Makime's in her 40s- and those are the codegrs!

Re: OOc Chat 4: The Game Begins
Alas she does not know this about Kai, and Kai doesn't look like an elder XD I'm wanting to RP a bit of nezumi culture which is asking your elders for advice before doing something. (It's actually mechanically important to their culture too, which is what I'm drawing this thread from -- you can lose Niche if you ignore or don't seek out advice and something bad happens, and you gain Niche for seeking out advice and taking it into account!)Kaijarisuigyo wrote: ↑Wed Nov 15, 2023 7:18 pmKai is thousands of years old.

I think you are basically stuck with Makime or Sora.
