((Errr...Kat? Your Earlier post when you met up with Kama...you were sorta "controlling" my post without my permission and I do see that alot when you and I rp...^^; Maybe keep it down or just ask me if you need to control my Character for a bit, thanks! *Teh Hugs!!!! * )) Opening her eyes, she gathered enough strength to head towards the crashing sound. There, the white pup saw creatures and a male human examining the crash, all of the sudden...TUSAMI!!! The pup gasped and ran over to see if her half-sister was alright or not.[/b] ((Sorry for the short post...^^; )) [/quote] Sorry I was tying to fallow you where you ran off, ^^` I will ask next time lets make a new rule why not before you post another persons charter PM them first.[/quote] (okies... :3 )

I was going to try and post this earlier... << I guess I should have done that.
Ok, calm down everyone, it's alright. Though Taro did not get my permission, I still do not mind that he used my character for that little bit. In fact, I think he needed to in order to get this rpg going and allow everyone to be able to post something. If he just said that he was waiting for me with the car, I would have done exactly the same thing that he made me do. It would have just taken longer that way. So I do not mind this, especially because when you are writing a story about someone's character, you have to god mod them anyways, it's quite inevitable sometimes. Though of course it's always a good idea to get the creator of that character to help you write your story, in a rpg this can also be the case.
So Taro, yes you did god mod. No, I do not mind that you did since I think you needed to. Ani, sorry that got you all concerned but it's ok. A little god modding is allowed as long as you don't take it to extreme. Because I know that Taro knows my char very well, he was welcome to do that though I didn't give him formal permission. Taro, next time be a little more aware and Ani, thank you for pointing this out but remember that sometimes it's ok. Kaito, you are fine with the god moding thing, shooting Sorin is an example of a good and acceptable form of god modding. I'm sure you all know what a bad case of god modding would be.
A very good way to make sure you aren't god modding is to be out of character for a bit. Either state or ask the person if they could follow along with you idea of what their character should do. For example, let's use Katio's post. The best way he could handle this is this: He's not sure he's god modding but wants to shoot Sorin's wing. He could type "Kaito lined up the scope and pulled the trigger." After this sentence he could type (Can Kaito shoot you in the wing?) or maybe (I was thinking that Kaito could shoot you in the wing and then you'd glide/fall out of sight.) Sorin's reply would either be yes or no by role playing that brief part of him getting shot (or not getting shot if he didn't want to). Then Kaito could finish his post by watching Sorin fall out of sight. But as you can see, this would take extra time to do one small action regarding other person's character. This is exactly why god modding happens. For this situation, it wouldn't be bad that Kaito god modded a bit since it's a minor thing but he could have made it less modded. Some people will be accepting of this and others wont, but that's just the way it is.
Role playing is the easiest when there is no action, only people talking. But when you combine both, it's hard to avoid. So avoid it at all costs. If you need to or really want to have someone else's character do something, it's better to ask then via personal message (PM) or type it in parentheses. That's what I will suggest unless someone has a better idea.
The entire point of this RPG Kat set up is so we can do a test run. This situation is pretty unlikely to really happen in our RPG but we are just practicing to see what works and what doesn't work before we start our real thing. We have found the first thing that doesn't work: God modding. We have found that you need to be careful since some people are ok with it and some people care not. It's good that we found this out early on so we won't have this problem in the real thing later. So watch yourself, don't go too far with controlling other characters, ask when in doubt, be courteous, and try and have some fun. Bumps in the road will happen, we just need to find a way to get around them or fix them. Also just a reminder, not that you really need it I'm just going to post my little pet peeve about role playing. Please post in 3rd person. It's not a problem with anyone but just to clarify. Ok I think that's it. I still feel like I have something to say but meh. If it comes to me, I'll post it. Alright now onto the role playing for me.
Tusami didn't even look at Taro when she answered slowly. "No. There wasn't enough time. It looks like we..." She suddenly stopped mid-sentence. He eyes widened when she glanced in the rear view mirror and she quickly looked back to confirm. Something was chasing them. "Uh Taro, you might want to speed up." But as soon as she faced forward again, she was greeted with shattering glass as a blue creature came flying into the windshield and flopped motionless into the backseat."Ahhhh!" She barely had time to scream. The car lurched forward and she was slammed to the side by the sudden swerve of the car. "Oh shi-!" ((Yes! You people NEED to listen to Tusami! Me and Tusami and...er should I say, Catome?, Have been through this RPGing stuff since 8th grade and we've been holding it together, then ever since all you came into our lives, it grew bigger and bigger and more love for friends came to hold up the rp together even more! Arguing ISN'T GOING TO HELP ANYTHING at all...all we want to do is JUST HAVE FUN here, right? Now people should be listening to each other and not telling others to not listen to those who are moody or suggest something "pretty simple" stuff. And as for Tusami Tusami, I will support you until the ends of time! This is all I have to say, k? Now lets get our SMILEY FACES on and Have a Great time in Kat's Sample RP, we don't want to RUIN it for her just by Arguing...D: ))

Sorin awoke in a frantic manner and in his fast action he turned and saw two figures near the car. After being hit in the head, he was very dizy and only saw a blur of the two figures. In his frantic action he got up and hurryed out of the car. As he steped out of the car, he screamed at them. "Not so fast!" he said. He shot two beam of ice from his hands at the two figures near there feet. As Sorin's vision came back into foces he noticed the two people were frozen to the ground. He then knew who the two people were. " Kama?! Tusami?!" he said in question.

Thadius glared at the dragon. Not much phased him these days. After all, the shadows obeyed his whims, so dragons weren't such a big thing.
"You shouldn't have done that," Thad whispered, and suddenly, a tentacle of shadows formed.
Before the dragon could respond to it, the tentacle had lifted him up and held him a few feet above ground, slowly crushing his ribs. Thad broke the ice covering that the dragon had made with another wayward thought-turned-command, and glared with rage at the dragon that was being slowly crushed.

Before there was even a split second to react, Tusami was suddenly frozen in place. She felt the extreme cold beginning to sweep over her as she blinked in surprise. She tried to ignite herself but the icy blast was coming too fast and she didn't have time to think twoce before she blacked out. When she awoke again, she was terribly cold and shaking. She had no perception of time and didn't know where she was or what was going on. She saw her icy tomb broken into pieces around her and it wouldn't melt for quite awhile since it was still slightly raining. She looked up at the figure in front of her, a boy, with the same darkness that had engulfed the car swirling around him. She followed his gaze to find the poor helpless dragon who had flown into the car window trapped in a death squeeze. Snapping awake she yelled, "What are you doing!? Let him go!" The poor dragon was going to be in serious injury if he didn't stop. Taro got out of the car and spoke, "We meet again." Tusami looked at him and then looked back at the boy. "You... you know this guy Taro?" Then she spotted Kama laying on the ground; she had been frozen too and was still trapped in ice. She quickly lit up her hand in a blue flame and shot forward. The ice began melting but the force of the impact began to make it crack. She kicked it with her foot and it broke into several pieces. She halted her flame and picked up Kama in her arms to warm her up. Then she wheeled around again to face the boy, "Why did you do this to her!?"

"I didn't do this, the one I hold captive did. If you wish him released, then I shall do so."
With a whim, Thad released the dragon and turned to face the jackal. I remember you, Thad said mind-to-mind. Don't let them know who I am just yet. The less they know about me, the better. Everyone but you has been taken away by...other people when they realized I existed.
Thad turned his back to the others then, trying to become aware of what lay around him so that nothing would surprise him too early.

Sorin fell from the grip of the boy and crashed to the ground. In pain he then got up and then soon fell back down to the cold wet ground. In his pain with a faint voice he said " It was me indeed. I was confused and could not see well." He then turned back into his human form and said "She needs to get to a vet or a hospital. I could use one my self." He then tried to get back up but then fell under the pain of his ribs pinching his side. He then felt as if his heart was hurt by the crushing of his own ribs. Sorin then tried to get up again but then fell back to the ground.

"Apologies, but healing is not an art I have mastered yet. I can tell you that we need to get out of here, someone...or something nears, and it is unfriendly. Would you prefer to walk, or shall I transport us?"
Thadius waited for their reply.

Katsurina head a noice and hurried over and saw a group of people fighting each other.
"What is going on here?" she said to herself.
The wind began to pick up and swirl around her, she looked at it as if was a invisble scarf covering her then she notice something not far the pup and someone she never saw before but she caught a scent of the person it was the same scent that was in her apartment tonight she began to growl as she lifted her arm towards the person and without warring she let loose a wind blast at that person.

Kama's chest was still moving...but there was a BIG PROBLEM...her breathing was shortened and it was going way to fast for normal lungs to handle. Her heartbeat was suddenly going up speed and her limbs still cold as ever. The ice effected her wings big time, at times Kama was able to try and fly while her wings healed up as much as possible, but now they were broken once more.
"...T-Tusami...Tusami...I'm so cold..." Kama's painful voice whispered to Tusami's ears.

Tusami didn't like this guy, whoever he was, and she eyed him suspiciously. He had released her and the ice dragon... no wait, Sorin! That was his name! She recognized him as soon as he turned into his human form since that's what he usually looked like. So, he had released Sorin but he had hurt him in the process. But now both Kama and Sorin needed help. She turned to Taro, he always seemed to be there when they needed him most. "Taro, could you heal them?" *He went over to Sorin and placed his hand gently over him, taking the pain away and healing. Tusami began to bring Kama over to him but as soon as she took her first step*, there was barely any time to brace herself before a giant gust of wind swept over them all. The surprise and intensity of it knocked Tusami and Kama in her arms to the ground.
(*Taro's healing of Sorin was added in later, after his post below)

Sorin then got up and thanked Taro greatly. He then had to find a way to help the small pup. But hopefuly Taro could help her to.

"Yes, I'm following that car... What's it to you?" Kaito shot back. "And what are these... 'rumors' about mutants, that you hear of? Make it quick, I need to get going...." He said, getting annoyed at the human's constant idle chatter.

“If I can just stall for time a little more, hopefully that car can get away. I've got to somehow trick this mutant into leaving. If that doesn't work, I guess I'll have to fight him.” Momaru thought to himself. “The car? Well I am just a curious bystander who wants to know what is going on. As for the rumors, everyone's heard them by now. Things spread really quickly over the Internet these days. Heck, just about any news blog should be talking about these rumors. Of course, the conspiracy theorists are having a field day with this. Some say it's a government conspiracy, while others say its because of this weird organization of scientists called LIGHT. Anyone that mentions LIGHT is never heard from again, so many people believe that the mutant rumors and LIGHT are related. I am not sure what to believe, it's probably a big publicity hoax for some company. Well that's what I thought until I met you....

I'm wasting my time just standing here, Kaito thought to himself. I'll have to ditch this meddling human and complete the mission "Really? Is that so?" Kaito asked, hiding his annoyance. "Well, I'll tell you something... LIGHT are a bunch of idiot fools. They don't know what they've done and how dearly they'll pay for their mistakes..... Until we meet again." he said and then dashed off in the direction of the glowing light. It was coming from the city park.
((FWI, Kaito is good at free running. Look it up on YouTube to find out about it.... cuz I'm too lazy to explain it here XP))
