Site Announcement Title
|
Updates Sonic Spindash RP is closed.Founded 05/25/2002 by three friends; ended 09/19/2012.
It pains me to say this, but we're done. Thank you to those who have participated and followed along these many years. We had a lot of fun, and your contributions will be remembered for a long time to come.
Strangers and visitors of the future, please respect what is ours. If there is anything in the form of writing or rules you'd like to borrow for your own RP, please e-mail me on the gmail account "onsoku" for permission. Chances are I'll grant it if you are a nice, intelligent person, and agree to just a few small stipulations regarding proper crediting method. But please, leave our characters alone.All fan-made, original, non-SEGA characters, character art, and concepts remain property of their respective creators. Please show respect and don't try to take any of them for your own use.
I hope that some of us will be able to move on and have some more fun writing hobbies in the future. No matter what, we'll stay in touch, and this group will live on, even if it has nothing to do with RP.
I love you guys. God bless.
-M

((Hope this one is better c: ))
What is your character's name? > Airi
Species? > Axolotl
Age? > 16
Give us a couple paragraphs of general info about your character. For example, what's the character's personality like? What kind of things does he or she do? Why does he or she do it? (Please don't give us your character's point-by-point life history, though.) > Airi does not quite understand the modern world, considering she had never been to it. In fact, unless you count going for a swim, she has never even left the island! Her village (for lack of a better word) resides on bamboo structures that are much like the ones found on Adabat. Having never a taste of the real world she could be called rather nieve. Which would be blatantly true. But Airi does have a sense of adventure. One of her biggest dreams is to travel the world and learn about what else is out there like the travel magazine her father brought home one day for her from a trade he did in Adabat.
She has an almost annoying optimistic look on life, almost always happy and thankful for something. Granted even she has her moments where she is sad or angry, but they are few and far between. Why would she be sad if she is alive and has two feet to walk on?
Does your character have any skills or special abilities, a gimmick, or anything that makes it stand out as an athlete or fighter? If so, talk a little about it here. Be sure to include an explanation or origin story for anything unusual, extraordinary, or supernatural. > Growing up on a small island not too far off the coast of Adabat, she is a rewound swimmer. In fact it is her favorite pastime. The sensitive frills on the protrusions from her head actually allow her to pick up and detect any changes in the water, air or temperature around her. They also help her find buried clams for food, and possibly other underwater treasures.
Does your character have any purpose? (It's okay if you don't have this fully figured out yet, but all the better if your character does have an agenda or some sort of driving force to it to make it interact with other characters.) > Her goal is to travel the world, so any strangers that come to the island or otherwise meet will certainly be barraged with question after question about their homeland and culture.
Does your character have an image? You can post it here, if so (as long as you follow the rules mentioned in the character guidelines). If not, please write a description of your character's appearance. > Airi is a white axolotl. Her tail has a pale pink see-through fin along the top and bottom, allowing her to swim through the water with ease. She has three protrusions on each side of her head that are made of cartilage, so they are fairly flexible and are able to move with her emotions. Her eyes are a sky-blue with some pale blue freckles underneath them. Her arms and base of her tail are speckled lightly with grey. She wears a dark blue one-piece jumpsuit that ends just above her knees. Airi usually does not wear shoes because they irritate her, but when she does they are dark purple sandals. She has white gloves that cut off at the knuckle so that her webbed fingers have room to move. Along wrists are two translucent rings, one green and the other blue. A clam shell is always worn around her neck, though most of the time it is under her clothes.
Will you be around to play your character regularly? (i.e. Keeping daily tabs on any threads you involve yourself in, and posting whenever it's your turn?) > Yes, I will post as often as I can.
Do you live in or near the Americas, or elsewhere? (It may be difficult for you to participate in any of the fast-moving sessions if you're only online when the rest of the group is asleep, so we ask this just to be aware of any potential problems.) > I live in the US
Are you okay with having your character information and image on this website (such as on the wiki)? > Yes
What is your name? (This question isn't optional. We need something to call you by that isn't your character's name. Don't post your last name, though! This forum isn't private.) > Mikaela or Amber
Lastly, by submitting the above, you acknowledge your understanding of the following:
1. Even though we want things to be as friendly as possible here, this is a character review process. This involves critique, which is intended to highlight and iron out any possible problems in character profiles. (In other words, it doesn't mean we don't like you or your character if we point out issues, so chill, and don't get too worked up about imaginary cartoon characters on the internet.)
2. This is not a chat RP! This is a forum-based RP, as it says everywhere from the splash page, to the front page, to right under the logo of the page you're viewing now. Chat participation is still largely required to be a communicative and effective member of the community, however.
3. You have at least looked at the rules. You have at least looked at the main page and know that you are signing for an RP, and know what role-playing is. If you are unclear on anything, ask questions before you submit. Please. Please.
All clear? Capiche? Alright. Let's go.

This is better, but there's also something very unfortunate about it. (I promise this isn't happening just to make it hard on you.) Meet Latika, a character recently added to our RP. She's from a faraway, isolated island village in Adabat Chun-nan. She's extremely curious of other cultures, and is now on a sort of traveling adventure across the world, leaving her home for the first time. She too tends to assail people with questions about their homeland and culture. And, she too dislikes shoes, and tends to wear sandals when necessary. While she does not share similar abilities or appearance, the "plucky and curious foreign girl from an Asian-esque country featured in Sonic Unleashed" niche is pretty well filled by her, and would make both her and your character a lot less unique if we suddenly doubled up on it like this. (I don't think her RPer would appreciate the addition of a very "samey" character such as this, either.)

(Please don't give us your character's point-by-point life history, though.) > Airi does not quite understand the modern world, considering she had never been to it. In fact, unless you count going for a swim, she has never even left the islands! She lives in a series of islands that are within rowing distance to each other but not necessarily anywhere else. Because of their tropical fish, shells and sea glass that wash up every now and then they have become a huge trading hotspot. Well, huge is a relative term. Not many people know of the islands,but this is not to say they don't get trades. Only some homes have electricity however, usually the upper class. Airi belongs to the lower middle class, the working class if you will.
Because of this she knows how to work hard labor, though for her since it is fishing she finds it rather enjoyable. but it can be a pain when you have to watch your little sisters as well (one ten the other thirteen). As with most older siblings she loves the little buggers to death, but matured a little quicker than most because of her sisters. Life is not easy there either, there is a lot of work to be done for her family to get food on the table. It isn't bad though.
Airi dreams of getting away from the islands and learning about the world she just discovered in the pages of a travel magazine her father got for her for free in a trade. Ever since she has been waiting for a friendly someone to come along so she could go back with them to their world and be allowed to explore. Airi talks a lot, probably more than necessary, especially around strangers. She gets nervous around people she does not know, so when she is with them she tends to babble and get of course of her conversation. Though it is something she is working hard on now, but it will take practice.

((Understandable. Alright, I changed it up a little, does that help any or am I going to have to re-do the entire character's background? Which would be okay if needed.))

Howdy!
I can't see too much terribly wrong with this, and I've been given the power and the authority to give you an all-clear, so let's give a wiki page a shot.
Airi
You should be able to edit after logging in with your forum username and password. If you have any questions or problems, feel free to ask me or any of the other mods. Be sure to give us a ring when you're done so we can look it over and stamp an 'approved' on it. Have fun.Abandoned. Oh well. Deleting wiki page.
