The Character Quest - Come vote now!

1. The Character Quest - Come vote now!

   #1

   We have here on the citadel an astounding number of Intelligent Races. Now, the ultimate goal of a written race in a game is to provide both a wide cultural conflict within the setting, as well as to create Characters, either PCs, or NPCs.
   
   What I would like to see is for people to write characters of races that someone else has written up. If the write up is sufficient to be used as a guide to create a well written character, then the write up has reached its goal. If the write up is not sufficient, the questions required to write a character will help fix any gaps in the write up - Good for everyone around.

   Yes, yes...  This seems good.  Almost something I might think about possibly taking part in for once, maybe....

3. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

   #3

   This sounds actually good! Would like to see some of those.

4. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

   #4

   I like it.

5. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

   me too!!!
   
   Let's Do it!!

   Thumbs up

   Can we only create from the major races, such as equivalents to elves and dwarves and whatever the Strolenites have created, or subspecies/ethnic groups as well? (Such as Strolenite created ethnic elves or humans)
   
   Me, I am more interested in ethnic humans than in translucent fungi beings from Yaggoth. :)

8. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

   #8

   I would suppose either would work, but creating one of the Translucent Fungi from Yuggoth would be more of a challenge than making a Lyran.

9. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

   #9

   Yeah, I'd say any race goes.
   
   Without further ado, lets get started!
   
   Thanks Siren for inspiring NPC Spring Quest 2008!

    Ok, I'm going to be honest. I don't like this idea as much as everyone else. Not to say I dislike it, i just think I need a little more help getting started. How about we start with some links to suitable races? Give a starting point. The only intelligent race I can recall enjoying was the new take on Drow, the Nekron I think.
    
    Maybe I'm just not as big on reading the new races as everyone else... But a little push in the right directon would be helpful, and wouldnt it make it better if we expanded to include all submission categorys? Not just NPCs? I would love to write up some new racial based items, or see some plots introducting said races into a game. Maybe even a city of them as a location.
    
    This has much more potential than just NPCs, please consider expanding the quest. Thank you!  :up:

    Try this link for a random Intelligent species to start with:  http://www.strolen.com/content.php?page=4&cat=40&sort=random&dir=asc
    
    Consider it a challenge when something rather bizarre pops up.

12. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #12

    If you have races you would like to see others create for, post them up here, too - Don't forget, interesting things maybe lurking around the corner in categories like 'construct' too.
    
    Oraki
    Kel'Regar
    Salvorathan
    Felalunar
    
    from me are all in varying categories of ready to work with.
    

13. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #13

    I am with you Pieh, but the "new takes" always seem to hit home, so I suppose we are the minority ;)

14. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #14

    We should all be writing with these in all categories without the push of an official quest.

15. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #15

    Pieh has a point. There are so much more possibilities than just new NPCs where this quest is concerned.

16. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #16

    My submissions into the quest:
    
    Lord Pavisfacio, a Dunshar
    http://www.strolen.com/content.php?node=5027
    
    and Yana the Dancer, another Dunshar
    http://www.strolen.com/content.php?node=5028
    
    Didn't intend to write two, but Yana refused to be a footnote in Pavisfacio's write-up.

    I just need more time.... I just can't get it done.. wahhhhh...
    
    
    
    Instead of a quest, can we have a request that people start posting up subs that use at least one other submission (preferably not their own) incorporated in it.

19. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.) Voting poll is up!

    #19

    BUMP. Lets read the subs and vote ourselves a winner, folks!

20. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #20

    POLL UP! (see above)

21. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #21

    BUMP? Vote, guys. The winner has to have more than two votes.  :up:

22. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #22

    BUMP again.
    
    Yeah, really. Can we get more than 4 votes, please?
    
    Thank you.

23. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #23

    I will vote this weekend.
    
    If the winner wants to win by a winning vote then he has to vote for a winner while not voting himself to win.

24. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #24

    I reset the poll through the weekend per request and because I haven't had a chance to vote too.
    
    An obvious abuse of power, see the circuit judge after he is done pillaging the neighboring kingdom.

    If the winner wants to win by a winning vote then he has to vote for a winner while not voting himself to win.
    

    
    
    Erm? Okay does this mean if the person wants to win they need to submit a vote but note vote for their own sub? Or does it mean they cannot vote at all? "To win by a winning vote they need to vote for a winner?" as in unless they voted for themselves if their sub wins they don't win? Not sure if it's just me Strolen, but your wording on that has me utterly baffled.  :what:

    exactly.

27. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #27

    It is clear when you clearly clarify the meaning of the cleanly clarified clarification which you have concisely conveyed.

28. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #28

    Erm. What?

29. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #29

    This Quest had some pretty good results. So come on people, vote!
    
    Oh, and the authors should leave a note on the race they have used - application is the sincerest note of flattery, after all.

    #30

    Hey. Would somebody break the tie? Or give me 4 votes?  :o

31. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #31

    There, that ought to help...hahaah!
    
    Great batch of subs. My favs go with Sheka and then Korara for a close second.
    
    Those are the two that captured me the most. The others were great too! Somebody else tagged Korara so now we are in a dead heat again. :)

32. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #32

    Yaaay! We finally have ourselves a winn-
    
    ack!  :what:

    #34

    Look what the all mighty Mike has proclaimed to the world. It is no secret the power of his click and the precision with which he wields it.
    
    I bow to the might of his index finger and am humbled to be in the presence of its aftermath.

35. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #35

    Me mike, breaking waves is honored. BTW, american soldiers at the base where I work are the most polite people in the world;) Ciao, Mike.

    I had to support the maker of brides!  Tied up again!

37. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #37

    Oh for the love of--!
    
    We're running out of strolenites to break the tie :D
    
    we in fact, may have ourselves a tie.
    
    Kudos to the tied.
    
    Lets see if anyone unties you.

    lol, how many times is the voting going to close then reopen?

39. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #39

    This is funny. *hugs Silveressa*

40. Re: A Quest Suggestion. (Else, just a Request. Bwahah.)

    #40

    Lol at the rate this seems to go, we should both be declared winners,  and be done with it :D
