I think what this came down to was miscommunication. We all thought that your character was a Koray who didn't get sent to Earth, like Aylin, and what you created seemed to fit with that narrative.

Then suddenly Greathound was on Earth all along, raised by wolves and given super tough metal equipment, a vicious magical curse and a group of knights who somehow traveled across the worlds to specifically hunt him for 17 years. I am Inferi.

Azi I didn't mean anything by it, it's just what I pictured in my mind from your bio. It didn't say he was taken to earth. I'm sorry if I angered you by telling you how I took it. Genus your char and I'm not taking over.

So he was taken to earth by the wolves? My only question now is how? Only the Koray have powers which Darius is the only one who could open the portal. So maybe that's why I'm so confused? I don't know lol.

I'll just play around your post and have them teleported away I guess.

Are you going to fix it?

There's nothing to change. I... think... I understand the narrative somewhat. It is, however, getting fairly confusing.

Fix what, Annie? There's nothing to fix.

George,
Yes, I think the users here did think I based my submitted bio entirely on what I posted, the one George just quoted.

Magnulfus' backstory was kept out of the question, as I didn't think anyone would care. My role-play characters almost always have thorough backstories, I even keep notes of them in a .txt document. Magnulfus' curse was acquired by the Ember Moon. Magnulfus' entire backstory I chose not to worry about because I thought no one would care.

For the third time, the obsidian knights, like the "wolves", used power from artifacts/objects/devices related to the Koray to pursue Magnulfus and his captors. I am assuming there's things left behind from the Koray civilization, as is often the case in these kinds of stories.

The obsidian knights know Magnulfus because in the previous Ember Moon, they fought him, then when they found out about him, and went to kill him, ending up going with him to Earth while fighting his captors.



Wolf,
It's OK, I'm not angry at anything, if you pictured something unlike how I intended, that means I have to tidy things up! I wanted to minimize the bio and his backstory.

As I said to George, what I had in mind was that the "wolves" used artifacts/objects to hijack the power of the Koray, mimicking it, and so utilizing it. The obsidian knights did likewise to pursue him in the recent Ember Moon, as these portals seem to suck in anything around them.

You are free to do whatever you want, you are allowed to disregard what I had in mind, I am more than glad to let you do all the work! XD



About Broken World,
OK, what needs to happen? Dirk is resting, Annie's inside the train station, I am waiting for posts now.

Clarify for me, if you will, what you mean when you say "wolves". The quotes makes it very clear that you don't mean actual wolves, and as such I'm curious why you don't just say it outright. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.

By wolves I am talking about werewolves. Magnulfus means "Greatwolf", the sabatons and gauntlets of his armour are shaped like paws, his helm is shaped as a wolf's skull, his visor is shaped like the muzzle of a wolf, Magnulfus only growls, his canine teeth are long, and so I thought this was a clear indication of lycanthropic background of those he was raised by. He is not a werewolf though, but his armour was made for a werewolf knight, hence his acquisition of it. Werewolf knights joined him in the battle after the previous Ember Moon. They remembered him when the recent Ember Moon occurred, alluding to the concept of reincarnation, starting his life all over again, and so the obsidian knights joined the pursuit since.

I recall, I think, that it was Chasers who mentioned that I was getting users to “write the story for me” in regards to my style of scenarios suggesting the hints were too easy or direct, and I think, Inferi, you mentioned my hints were too easy or direct somewhere, and in Angel's thread, Mechanical Spirry was viewed as overpowered due to my failure of using hints to describe his weaknesses clearly. I did not forget these features, and so tried to have hints neither too easy nor too mysterious in the bio's appearance, equipment, and in his history to allude to a larger story.

I don't think I ever said that. What I said, or what I meant if I didn't say it properly, was that you were directly telling people what they should do, even if perhaps you didn't think that was the case. It's an irrelevant point right now, honestly, since the two things are completely different (bios are meant to be direct, showcasing the information up front so that there isn't any question or misinterpretation).

In all honesty, my biggest problem was, in both the Spirry scenario in ITF and what just happened now (my two largest grievances), that it 100% feels as though you are trying to hijack the plot and make yourself the centerpiece of everything. I don't know how exactly to describe how infuriating that is to me, so I'll just note that it makes me mad (hence my removing myself from the discussion earlier) and leave it at that.


EDIT: George, would you like to go first? Talia is gonna be about as cooperative as a car with a dead engine, so I didn't know if you'd like to make the situation a bit more reasonable for everyone before I tried tearing it apart. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.
