Stolen Lands; Phoenix Roleplay Discussion

I think you guys will like my reply when I finish it. I hope it's allowed... she is reborn in the core of the Earth, since she is more magma-based instead of fire-based...

Silver~Shadow, I understand that. I didn't ask you to rewrite it or change it... I would've preferred if someone told me about what you were talking about, but it's fine. There were two methods of rebirth I talked about: burning of the nest and travelling to the sun. It's fine to put variations on the two; I don't mind creativity.
Naar burning in a ball of flames would work.

I more imagined a rebirth to not be that unconvenent. Like after everything blew up, broken bones and stuff can anyone really fly? Kind of ruins the whole weakness after rebirth thing. I thought of a rebirth kind of like Naar, they bursts into a ball of fire but its so terrible a Phoenix doesn't like to go through it. They like fire but they only feel burn pain when being reborn, bones cracking and snapping back together, flesh scolding back into one. Things like that.

Oh wait, Silver, I think we all said when being reborn Phoenix' were almost completely weak? Flaming broke her neck and spine, how could she fly? I don't know Im sure we agreed on not only was the rebirth extremely painful, it just refreshed the Phoenix and made them unable to fly and were pretty weak all together.

Uh uh. I may not be reading everything we discussed, my iPod sucks at moving around the chicken smoothie website. I do think we talked pretty in debt about it but Im not sure ;-;

Agh I totally forgot about all that... I will edit my post I'm sorry guys >.<

@KayDeeAye

She didn't fly, her spirit flew?

[KayDeeAye]

What about the whole invisibility part? I guess I just read it wrong, but yeah it'd probably feel terrible and make her weak, not indestructible. I do think this brings up a past term, "god modding" or whatever we said idk. Something about how Flaming had no reason to know Bruler was planning something.

[flightoftheowl]

That term was metagaming, which is using knowledge the roleplayer knows but the character shouldn't know, since they haven't gotten a chance to really learn or figure it out. But god modding is a good term to know- it is about having your character become extremely powerful out of what they should be able to do with their skills or in the situation. I have a good article, but although it sounds insulting at first, you must read it until the end, it is better at the end. It overviews lots of kinds of godmodding, but Silver, we aren't saying you are doing all of it OR being annoying. Keep in mind that godmodding by forcing other people's characters to do things without letting the roleplayer have them do it is powerplaying. http://www.ongoingworlds.com/blog/2010/ ... -annoying/

She is weak, as in cannot fly, and she cannot speak or walk right, but because she is weak in that way, she is unharmable by others until she gains her strength yo fight back. Get it now?

[KayDeeAye]

In your post it says nothing about her being weak, if she was weak would she be indestructible? Or is it just a coding over your Phoenix that gives It better survival than anyone else? Idk man did you want to bring this up in our discussion about what happens?

And flight, thank you for clearing that up, heh
