    Let me tell you, writing a hedonistic character is lovely change from the norm for me. This Kilana is waaaaaay more fucked up than her original incarnation. And I am enjoying it.

    Well hopefully (sort of DW's judging, all up to you) action and such will begin to happen.

    I hope to make my character to be dynamic. I think he may surprise you.

    I suppose we could do something really quick before you guys leave. I was just planning on having Traverse Town be destroyed once you guys left.

    In case you're wondering about the device Junko has, all she needs to do is throw it. It'll automatically attach to the gummi ship, like a magnet. It looks like a black disk. And it will obviously have multiple functions. Oh, and it will be difficult to detect, or else that wouldn't be any fun.

    Let's not try to get too heavy on action too early.

    .... So... am I the only one that thinks the pacing for this is off?

    Referencing the diagram... I think this RP COULD use a bit more meat in the exposition thus far... you know, a bit more time to lay down the groundwork for the heroes' journey, and actually introduce them to the villains. Just a suggestion. But I think that keeping a steadier pace early on can help keep things from getting too random later on.

    True. I wasn't planning on shooting straight to the climax. Which is also why I haven't bothered introducing my character to the heroes. The destruction of the town would be similar to how Destiny Islands was used in the beginning of KH.

    I wouldn't call it a climax as much as a premature launch into a rising action; I mean, if you go by the diagram, the conflict hasn't even been properly introduced yet. It seems like the RP only just started, and it's already kicking into high gear. I'm starting to feel the same way I did when I RPed on khv. :/

    I was thinking the same thing at the time. Maybe have a villain take the ship down or something...

    The beginning isn't that much faster than the original KH was. In fact, I would say that it is less so, considering the heroes' journey hasn't encountered much by way of heartless except for one tiny encounter.

    By the way, should I mention in my post Sei seeing Traverse Town go all wonky in the window, or should I leave him blisfully unaware of the destruction?

    Yeah, but the player only goes through so much of what went into the departure. It can be safely assumed that for what the player had to go through at the start of the original game, there would have been plenty happening off-screen. And even so, there is a lot more stone-setting within that frame of gameplay. The primary antagonist (albeit unknown) is introduced to the character, and the first major battles occur.

    The way things have played out here thus far make it almost pointless to have even started the villains off in Traverse Town.

    I have plans for that, which tonight DW you should be expecting. We're still sort of in the intro, the world they're traveling to now should work as an intro to the plot and story.

    So, should I just wait to post, or? . .

    Meh. I guess the deed's been done. Still feels like the effort I've been putting into my posts has been for nothing though, particularly my last one, if things are just gonna jump to where they're going, and Traverse Town get blown to hell by it.

    Well that decision is for DW, however the truth shall be revealed on the next world, Proph(because I can't come up with a different creative name)

    Req, go ahead

    If you guys think destroying Traverse Town is too far, then it won't happen. I just figured doing it to demoralize the heroes later in the RP. If you want, just post without the town being destroyed and then I'll edit my post.

    It just doesn't settle right unless it happens in a more involved manner. I mean, they leave and the world basically gets wiped out? Not very climactic, IMO. I feel like there needs to be more build time.

    Well it will be climactic when they find out far later that the place was wrecked in their absence.

    EDIT: FUUUUUUUUUUUUBGibelrgjherbglsi
    The computer is being a complete piece of shiza right now and erased my almost completed post. You guys can go forward a round, if you want, while I cope with the frustration.

    Just not the same as making the heroes watch as the villains lay waste to shizzles for some gizzles
