WARNING NOTE: This does not involve SD. If you like SD, you've come to the wrong place. Sorry.

All right, people! Long story short, I have so many things to do for school that I need a way to relax, and that could mean getting a little RP thread on the side for my character. Because of the rules, it won't officially count for anything though, and it would have to be *lowers voice* in the OOC section.

So why do it?

If the title wasn't enough of an answer, let me say: character development. I believe that there are many types of threads which could not be easily done with the 1 SL per character limit - which represent many lost ways of exploring a character: how it behaves, how it would react to certain situations, its view on the world etc. Just imagine: how would your character react without their crew? Would they be more cautious? Rash? How would it fight against someone who isn't a NPC? Although such an 'unnoficial' thread would not make a character stronger, I believe that it has the potential to make it more alive.

So what can I offer?

Not much, really. My character is barely a starter. She doesn't have the potential yet to teach anything, unless you're interested in the basics of being an assassin (eg. for tertiary/quaternary profession or something). But she is a curious little thing who would like to learn from others. Nina is an Assassin/Doctor who lived on The Island of the Rising Sun in East Blue for most of her life. She trained as the apprentice of the royal assassin, so there are some possibilities for fun shenanigans. Would you like your character to try steal the crown jewels? Or maybe he/she was wrongfully accused of something? (the royal assassins can make good detectives!). Maybe you're a Marine who was stationed on the island? Maybe you're employed by the World Goverment to try find a dirty secret that would force this measly island to join it properly?

I'm mostly limited to this island (which, politically speaking, is a bit like China/Japan in ancient times), and to Dawn Island, since these are the islands I've visited IC. However, I assume I could explain visiting other islands during a mission or something...Time-wise, it would be easier for me to keep it as close to the present time as possible because of writing Nina's personality, but a few years in the past would be all right.

Final warning note: I may write very slowly.

So......any takers?

I'm game, I'm making a new character and want to get some practice SLs in. I would like to do an SL on Bausyer though, but I'll also do any of the other islands you suggested.

Thank you, Clarity! Bausyer Island is cool, I can easily get Nina there. I just read the description for it. Is there anything in particular you'd like to do with your new character? (I assume that, since you mentioned Bausyer, it would be related to the games? Or is it simply that he/she lives there?)

This is the character, Tset and it could be for a game it really doesn't matter this is simply for the sake of writing and I figured it would be when he was back on that island.

It's probably irresponsible of me to add this, but...*poke* is anybody else interested in a no-SD thread?
Edit: I could probably explain being in Grand Line for a mission or something, if it helps, but it would have to be a relatively safe island with an actual government eg. Alabasta or Drum Island, not Little Garden)

He's not quite approved yet, but since he's not going to be much of a fighting character SD isn't going to be all that important to this guy. I'll probably want to start SD gaining at some point, but until I get a feel for him, I'd totally be up for casual RPing if you'd have him. A slow pace would actually work better for me too, at the moment.

Awesome! I read in his history that he's been travelling a lot - what island would you like the SL on? Also, if you have a particular idea in mind about the thread, please say )

I'm not totally familiar with a lot of the Blues' islands to be honest, but one that is fairly violent - but not too dangerous of course - would be good. As for plot ideas, Nina being on a job to kill someone, before bumping into Kazan could make for some good conversation. He, naturally, wouldn't exactly approve of her chosen profession, might try talk her out of it, you know?

I like that idea! I'll leaf through island descriptions and see what I can find )

Edit: Gunsmoke Island and Osula are mentioned as being violent. There's Saint Reia in South Blue, but next to nothing is said about it. There might be more, but I didn't really pay attention to the islands lacking a subforum description.

Osula looks pretty good to me. The setting is more secondary, really; interaction is more important in this particular instance, so if you're good with there, then so am I! Of course, the character isn't actually approved yet, but should be fairly soon-ish.
