Question: Are there any redeeming features to little sisters and big sisters? Excuse my steriotyping, but they look like targets, not characters. I haven't played the game though, so maybe they're nice girls under all that creepyness?


It is possible to redeem/rescue them.

This is what happens:

If you treat them like targets, you get the Bad Ending. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

Azi dont forget about Omega rp. I don't, I've just been quite tired lately. I’ll be really busy for a while. I'm helping my older brother get his first house, which is half mobile-home, so there's some waiting involved that. It's also rather hot lately, and again, when it's several degrees above room temperature, my energy drains. Also will be a bit busy with Wok Safe BC tomorrow, then it's back to appointments with the mortgage broker, then hoping things will go through, then back to looking for work as I'm unemployed (I had to quit my job due to tendonitis a couple months ago). So, ya, scrounging for a living. I will try to post, at the latest, Wedsnday night.

Hmm, I'm wondering if the scope of this RP might be a little ambitious. I know it's unfinished, but that's a lot of interested factions and subfactions for characters who could potentially be nobody special!

Question: Are there any redeeming features to little sisters and big sisters? Excuse my steriotyping, but they look like targets, not characters. I haven't played the game though, so maybe they're nice girls under all that creepyness?
The main reason I maximized factions was to maximize diversity and plot progression, but it may not be too necessary. Basically, although we RP as nobodies, there are long-term plans and surprises I have. It's also to have content to foreshadow, and progress, into dieselpunk World War 1 and then World War 2.

As for Little Sisters, yes, they are mostly targets. However, Eleanor, Delta’s Little Sister, is a driving force of the plot in Bioshock 2. Eleanor begins Bioshock 2 as just a nobody, just the girl you’re looking after, but becomes the most powerful entity in the game and the ending ties around her. But yes, for the most part, Little Sisters are nice girls, they’re not monsters. However, Eleanor can become a genocidal maniac in the evil ending, and towards most endings, she ends up killing all remaining Little Sisters.

Not funny slinger.

Perhaps not, but then again, if you don't actually think that, what point is there in reminding people repeatedly of things they're likely already planning to do? It's not like everybody else involved in the thread just got hit in the head and suffered amnesia. They know it's their post. They know the thread still exists. Chances are they're not posting because they either don't have anything to post or they need to come up with something. Or, perhaps, and I know this is a long shot, perhaps they have things that need done that come before RP. Y'know, school, work, family, friends, housework, other hobbies, etc. I know it's difficult to imagine but some people have things to do. They can't sit infront of the computer and refresh the page all day every day and then create a good response in thirty minutes or less.

Honestly, I'm not even involved in any of these threads, thus the constant pestering isn't even directed at me, but even *I* find it obnoxious. I can only imagine what everybody else is thinking.

This isn't some asylum or convalescent home for old folks. It just reminds me of some nurse constantly pestering some ornery old guy to take his damn pills. "Ralph, take your pills. Are you gonna take your pills? Hey, did you take your pills? When do you plan to take your pills? You better take your pills. What's the hold up? Why won't you take your pills? Hey Ralph, I think you oughta take your pills. Pills, Ralph. Take your pills. You should take your pills Ralph. I think your pills might fix this problem. Well, if you would have taken your pills this wouldn't have happened! PILLS!"

They. Know.

They. All. Know.

We. All. Get. It.

Not everyone here has the attention span of a goldfish on methamphetamine. It's obnoxious. It reminds me of a Jack-Russel Terrier bouncing up and down yipping and yapping for attention. It's just obnoxious. No.

Good points, Gun. Other users do get irritated as well. Personally, I don't really care, but yeah, it's not like I forget. I've been creating role-plays for quite a few years, chances are I won't forget. I'll go as far as saying I do consider myself a game designer, of sorts.

Anyways, I made some updates to Extermination: the starting area will be New York, probably New York City or Manhattan, but somewhere in New York. This city of immigrants is, I feel, a suitable starting area as just about any character fits there. Once the Great War begins, we'll simply fly or sail to Great Britain or something.

Also reworked the Vampire class. It consists of three subclasses, of which the older the Vampire, the stronger and more monstrous they are, which I thought was pretty cool.

Considering the nature of vampires, I'm not sure why everyone wants them to look and act like sewer monsters. I mean, there's no future in a preditor you can visually identify and leaves a massive body trail!

Fish, did the ship depart from the dock to go to Ashland ?

Unless Vanick and Octavius are taking an ill advised dip overboard, I would assume the ship is still in port. At least, that was my reading.

I mean, there's no future in a preditor you can visually identify and leaves a massive body trail! Only the ancient vampires are monstrous. It's the only excuse/reason I have for monster-vampires, as they do appear in fiction.

I wanted to portray the theme of the curse being ugly and scary, similarly to how Splicers are ugly and scary. However, there really isn't anything stopping anyone from RPing as a Primordial Vampire that looks quite human and has self-control, you just have the extra work of mentioning so, but you also won't have the benefits of animalistic-heightened senses or strength or claws. But yes, you can't be a predatory monster while leaving behind a gory mess.

Anyways, I removed the Native tribes minor faction, as it was too complex and too vast, and there isn't enough room left to include a summary of it all. It's replaced with the Pinkerton's. Also added werewolves, 'cause why the hell not.

I think the RP is just about done, but there's one reserved post in case anyone has any more ideas. I will be creating bios either tonight or tomorrow, but will need at least two nights to finish multiples.
