Story Storming

[Midnightmoon]

coolio. that was interesting to read and it doesn't shatter the story. *shrug* cool

[Kauria]

Midnight's right. The whole thing clicks well with canon.
If we do go with this, do you suppose we could use it to explain the existence of the "lesser demons" like the imps and the grunty dragonless guards who were clearly never elves? Like maybe a bunch of minions decided to come along for the ride and sort of became a part of the clan themselves.
I don't know how much sense that just made. XD

A few sub-plot ideas you guys might use for your creep scenarios:

Ship is damaged. Visiting asteroid field and mining some metals is advised.
Most of your characters need atmosphere/water. Getting something to fill the CO2 scrubbers with and some water might be good for the survival.
The unknown attackers are still in pursuit, running prooved ineffective, maybe trying to hide in spooky nebula full of phantoms?
The ship is damaged. A misjump might throw them god knows where, finding a way home becomes primary objective.
And over the course, exploring the big ship might provide with creeps as well, such as the attacker's boarding party, forgotten experiments etc.

what if there was this whole big thing of dragons everywhere are being enslaved, killed, or kept as "pets" against there will and wild dragons are becoming fewer and fewer and any eggs are taken to be raised to work against the wild, or to keep the enslaved ones in check.

[Nohiki]

There is a thing like that, it's called the Inheritance cycle xD

[saphira]

i know that but this is different the dragons are there just enslaved not dead and elundari

Hmm, with a little more detail and a premise beyond "emancipation of badass lizards"... I like it. XD
Maybe the dragons are held in check by the threat of losing their magic if they separate from their human masters.
Say, 500 years ago people started to find they could bond to dragons, and the first bonds were willing, and for a while it was just the odd witch or warlock who worked alongside a dragon. Eventually some jerks saw the advantages of this and started sealing the dragons against their will. Now, all those who can afford it arrange for their young to bonded to a dragon body guard/servant from birth, just as they were when they were born.
So if you're from a rich/magically gifted/powerful family you probably have a dragon bonded to you.

I'll have to say that if the dragons are living in a world built for humans they would have to be markedly smaller than the wild variety, probably no taller than a large horse at young adulthood. Also small enough to be actually crippled by the loss of their magic. XD
I think the more powerful you are though, the bigger and more powerful a breed of dragon you could afford. (You have to be able to feed it and house it, remember. XD)

The relationship of the bond would be something like dragon = source of magical power and transportation, offers physical protection to the rider.
Rider = Channels magical power, offers magical (and political haha) protection to the dragon.
Pre-bond dragons were great sources of magic, but unable to channel it except in great bursts of emotion or after a great deal of experience and old age.
Humans had less potent magic but were better able to focus it and access it at will. The pair-bond merely polarizes the relationship in that the bonded dragons are basically unable to cast magic while the humans draw from from their innate power.

There's my two cents. Still don't know what kind of CONFLICT there would be though, I'm a little tired of playing prosecuted badasses with unbridled magical power. XD

yeah and they could have it to where there using magic to prevent them from growing more than they want it to but i was talking something a little like hallow house in the forum but on a much larger scale or something. and they could devise a spell or something to where they cant use magic without permission. here is an example of what the rp could be like. some random witch or wizard: "bring her bring her in. gently now or ill have your head on a stick." he moves to uncover the giant object. " ah well done well done boys, shes magnificent."witch/wizard makes to touch dragon. some random hunter: "i wouldn't do that if i where you master." random female dragon: snaps at witch/wizard's hand "stay away from me you vile excuses for a human being"the dragon growls at the witch/wizard. witch/wizard: "feisty this one is. but then again that is what most of my males are asking for." the witch/wizard says mockingly " oh and don't worry Missy we'll soon have that attitude under control." witch/wizard walks away laughing manically.

[Morty]

Well, we all know how succesful Hallow House was. XD
And um, just a small detail, but unless my mind is just that dirty, what you may or may not mean by "that is what most of my males are asking for" doesn't.. sound.. very... site-appropriate. e_o

[saphira]

im not talking like that i mean it could be like the evil male dragons or just human males buying the dragon. but i had a suggestion for +Anima rp we could restart it and make it instead of the anima being killed they could be caught and sold as oddities workers or pets.

[Midnightmoon]

that was already one of the things happening, what do you think the slave boat was about (near the end there)?

[saphira]

sorry never joined in time to know about that.

[Zetherus]

I was thinking that you guys should think of a story involving the resurrection of the dark lords that we fought in the past stories while a human or whatever is bringing then back to life with some type of contraption.

idk just a thought!

THE ONE WITH THE POWER TO VANQUISH THE DARK LORD APPROACHES
BORN TO THOSE WHO HAVE THRICE DEFIES HIM, BORN AS THE SEVENTH MONTH DIES
HE WILL HAVE POWERS THE DARK LORD KNOWS NOT

[saphira]

Hey I really really really want to do a new anima rp, but I would like to start in the new land. We basically need role players, at least 1 person to be a big rich guy with tons of anima people as servants or whatever, read my modification on my character senora, and a name for the new land.
