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.

Character's name

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?
>Pyro is a young warrior who has a bit of a mellow attitude. If he's not fighting, he usually stares at the sky at an empty space of land. Pyro is usually honest and doesn't lie unless it's a necessary secret to be kept. He's very loyal to anyone who is his friend, and someone he can trust.

Does your character have any skills or special abilities, a gimmick, or anything that makes it stand out as an athlete or fighter?
>Pyro is very athletic, and uses fire-based attacks. He even carries a a sword which can also ignite in flames.

Does your character have any purpose?
>Pyro is a traveler who wanders around the world, looking for a good challenge. Also a hero, he protects the innocent and helps those in need. He also came here to make newer friends and good ones.

Does your character have an image?
>Pyro is a brown dog with an orange jacket and pants which are in a fiery pattern. He wears white and gray shoes with a gray shirt under his coat, along with a silver chain around his neck.

Will you be around to play your character regularly?
>I won't be on everyday.

Do you live in or near the Americas, or elsewhere?
>I in fact, do happen to live in America. New York to be exact.

Are you okay with having your character information and image on this website (such as on the wiki)?
>Character info will be fine, But keep the image of him up until I upload a better pic of him.

What is your name? (Don't post your last name! This forum isn't private!)
>Rick


(Please, tell me I got it right this time...)

Let's not waste one another's time. My impression of you, from your art, to your ideas, to your ability to use forums, is that you are very young, possibly younger than our rules allow. And, for Pete's sake, you submitted your character three times in rapid succession for no reason — once in the discussion area, then twice here, not to mention the two times you posted your other character in the discussion area. Flooding us is not going to help you.

As far as the character goes? You included elemental fire powers without even a mention of why he has them. Blaze already has pyrokinesis. Also, you didn't bother trying to explain why "Pyro" is a sword-wielding warrior in a modern-scifi-futuristic Sonic the Hedgehog RP. There is not enough thought put into this. I've already written more here in this critique than you've written in your entire profile.

Read the following excerpts from the rules, which you still don't seem to be looking at.

The character guidelines wrote:
Don't give your character attributes identical to the official characters' unique features

The character guidelines wrote:
Our RP world's "styling" is pretty broad, just like the games, with places that are uncivilized, rustic, old-world-like, modern, and scifi-futuristic. For the most part, we lean toward the modern/futuristic side, just like the games.

The powers & skills rules wrote:
Elemental powers
These will be allowed if handled in some sort of interesting way. As always, chaos energy still stands as the go-to BS explanation for what powers elemental abilities, but you'll need a little something more to get a pass on these for your character—some sort of interesting origin for the ability, be it an artifact, or something else to that effect. (In short, don't just say, "Oh, my character was born with the ability to SHOOT FIRE OUT HIS EYEBALLS for no readily apparent reason!" Make it interesting.)

Also, you're more likely to get the character accepted if its particular power hasn't been done yet. (At the time of this writing, fire and electricity are already accounted for.)


There are hundreds of easier Sonic RPs to join where you don't have to actually read rules or come up with well-thought-out characters. I suggest you go find one of them.
