Merry Christmas! And it's perfectly acceptable to not post if it means more holiday time. :)

Well, I tweaked him a bit. You're worried that he'd be hard to understand in speech?

No. I think he's just a bit too generic.

Huh. That's new. So... is he still generic? I can radicalize him even more if you want me to xP

He just seems too stereotypical.

The turn order is a bit messed up this round cause dumbe GM was dumbe and did stupid thing.

why gm do stupid thing if gm not 2 stupid 4 dumb thing?

that is quite a question

he could probably still be interesting though , but that's just me

Ah well, I'll just make a new one. Got the idea for this from while eating some Arabic kebab, of all things.

Name
“Maut” (ma-oot)

Character Type
Main Character

Species
Mongrel

Age
18 years (pet)

Neighborhood
Snow Tunnels SRP

Appearance
Maut is a tall dog, but he has a fragile build with not much muscle. These, and the black pouches under his eyes, give him a gaunt look. That aside, he has a brown coat, rust-coloured eyes, large triangular perky ears a thin tail. He wears an old black hoodie with front pockets, and he always has the hood up. He speaks with a raspy voice.

Personality
In general, Maut is a pessimistic dog, never keeping his hopes up for anything, and he will almost always be surprised if things turned out alright. This doesn’t mean that he wishes for bad things to happen to others around him, oh no. In fact, despite his pessimism in almost everything, he will try very hard to help others get the better end of the stick. For himself though, he will not put much effort.

Other Notes
Maut has always been sickly all his life, and prior to this incident, he was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer and was given 3 months to live by the doctor. As such, he ran away from the shelter, to not burden them any longer. In the process, he also discarded his old name and adopted the nickname “Maut” which he found in a novel. Maut means 'death' in Arabic. His only wish now is to die a peaceful death, while not being a nuisance to anyone else in the process.

... however, unbeknownst to the poor mutt, it was actually a misdiagnosis, and he was not dying at all. Sad to say that he never get to know that before falling in.

S.P.EC.I.A.L.
STR – 2 “The book’s too heavy for me.”
PER - 7 “Something’s the matter?”
END - 7 “I know, I’m surprised I can walk this far too.”
CHA - 4 “Erm, hello.”
INT - 7 “There is more to life than just joy.”
AGI - 4 “Please don’t ask me to run or anything.”
LUC - 5 “I’m lucky I’m still breathing.”

Color - #400040

Note: He only has 36 stat points total due to his weak body.
EDIT: Edited backstory.

Looks good to me. Still though just a bit too tragic don't you think? But anyway, before we have a final say on that character, I'd like to propose a thing. We could have these strict game time postings, and then a more lenient time postings like the other roleplays do in a pet friendly town. That way you don't have to be on the ball during that time and things will be a little more relaxed.

Any thoughts?

Heh, if you really want to know, his personality is based a little on my own negative ones. You know, the 'not caring about self' and 'pessimistic' ones. So, Maut is basically the snarky me ;p

About the options though, if I may put in my two cents, I think that maybe you could designate a week as a round, in which each player must post once for their character? It'll be hard to not enforce any time constraints due to the nature of an SRP, and the players can always relinquish control of their characters to the GMs if they are busy that week. The GMs on the other hand should post the actions' results as soon as everyone has posted, regardless whether the 1-week period is up or not.

The one thing I'd ask about Maut, is if you could change the cancer bit to where it's misdiagnosed, but he doesn't know since he left. Cause that is just bothering me. Also, before we start another round, I am going to go ahead and open up Player Voting on your character now. But I would like it if you changed the cancer bit, but keep his weak body due to illness.

So.

PLAYER VOTING has opened on whether or not the new player and their character is allowed in. Vote Yay or Nay.

Yay if you can answer one question:
In the transformers movie from 1986, who did hot rod turn into during the climax?
Should be easy, just a quick google.

I don't mind Maut joining at all , well yeah except for that cancer bit , I just....I don't know , feel sorry for him , which is kind of the point , I know , but still . Not that it's a big issue or anything ^^"
Other than that though , Yes (or YAY) , I would like for Maut to be a part of thing

this is like one of those "how was I supposed to expect this?" kind of question

I changed his backstory a bit as per hunter's suggestion. Also, after some googling (I never was interested in the Transformers series, the old ones or the new ones... well, except for Beast Wars, but that was only when I was young), he transforms into Rodimus Prime.

DING DING DING!!!!!!! WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!!!
So yea, you get my vote.

Was that the movie with Unicron?

Sure, I'd be fine if he joined.

Yep.

I think I still have that movie somewhere on VHS.

I'm fine with the character

Same here.

im good

Missing votes from:

Roarin

The Moon Howler*

CrystallineWolf

Belated yes from me.

I don't think we're going to hear from Crystalline anytime soon.

Did you hear something from them? I'll send a pm.

Okay. I sent out a couple private messages and have not heard from either of them. So. Since a majority have voted Yes, I am going to say welcome to kurowolfe's character Maut. Everyone else say welcome as well. I'll GM post in a little bit so we can get back to posting.

yay , welcome Kuro
Welcome aboard Maut , see ya in there

welcome, Kuro

Well, I'm glad. Thanks everyone~

Welcome.

I have actually been a good GM and updated the characters page. Yay! The current turn order is as such:

1.RandomGeekNamedBrent -Flynn Fram

2.Roarin -Gil Ranger

3.serence ice fox - Muiva

4.Legotron123 - Jack lovhoug

5.Hotep the psychic - anubis

6.hypernovatic - Cryo Stevens

7.Korakc - Quinn Green

8.kurowolfe - Maut

Ok, noted. When and how do I post?
By the way, I made a cheat sheet like the other RPs I'm in, to make quick references easier. Hope it'll be useful to everyone here too.

Snow Tunnels Roster

Like the turn order above says. Flynn is first, Gil is second, Muiva is third, etc. You and Korakc are last because you two didn't post during the initial start. Also um, wow that's a nice cheat sheet! How'd you graph the battle stats?

I just used the Radar graph in Microsoft Word, and set the max value to 20. I actually wanted to make something akin to a Pokemon summary screen with bar charts and all, but thought this was better as a graphical comparison tool. Is it better?

Actually yeah, it looks great!

Please remember that if you have a problem or a situation that leaves you unable to post, and post it in the Main, please remember that not everyone reads the Main thread and try to post it here as well. Thank you.

I'll be skiing this entire weekend, so just skip my turn when it comes if it comes anytime before Sunday morning.
