Title: Vikings 2! Post by: Faden on October 30, 2009, 11:15:29 am I can't believe someone locked a post because 2 people went off topic.
Anyway back to the topic. Is anyone interested in making a band of viking related characters? Title: Re: Vikings 2! Post by: Raven on October 30, 2009, 03:13:35 pm I wouldn't expect anything less.
Yeah i would be. Title: Re: Vikings 2! Post by: Kelly Sanderson on October 30, 2009, 03:36:56 pm Just a reminder people. Let's have a bit of respect for each other, yeah? Any posts disputing or undermining others in this thread shall be deleted from now. Keep on-topic without the side remarks, please.
Thanks. Title: Re: Vikings 2! Post by: Raiden Morana on October 30, 2009, 03:47:02 pm Ultimately anything that helps you to enjoy your roleplay and adds a little depth to your character can only be a good thing.
BoC has characters from all over Sosaria, in fact there's probably very few of us that actually roleplay Covians. I blame the Baron and his conquest of the colonies. ;) As has already been mentioned, I think if you are wanting to RP a certain type of character you do need to do your research and be true to the type of character you wish to portray whether it be a Highlander/Tokunese/Elf or Viking etc. Thankfully Raiden is from the Shire as am I, as in Yawk... So hopefully I pull it off quite well. ;) Title: Re: Vikings 2! Post by: Me'an Silen on October 30, 2009, 04:46:05 pm Id make a Viking

As for the topic itself, only bit of advice I'd offer beyond cultural sensitivity is being careful who you "recruit" if you're going to do a whole band of these. The flaw with branding it around the public forum is unfortunately you're in a dificult position of perhaps ending up with a bunch of interest you didn't want. Because what often happens when you end up getting a big band of "themed" characters together is that often it turns into slapstic or farsical roleplay quite quickly. The idea has a lot of potential to it if you take it seriously - especially if you make yourself Altmerian, with a lot of the growing friction in the area - but if you push too hard and get too lapse you'll end up with five or six Och Aye-ing Charlie Chaplains running around just emoting drinking beer and hitting everyone. Title: Re: Vikings 2! Post by: Raven on October 30, 2009, 06:34:25 pm Yeah. It would have to be planned well. I think you'd play it well me'an!

Yeah, he seems to like playing violent, obnoxious characters. So he's basically your average Gers fan. Title: Re: Vikings 2! Post by: Cocidius on November 04, 2009, 07:13:18 pm Van might consider playing a role with the Vikings! Being a former Pirate himself and at the moment being unemployed, or is he? I don't know, Ed is as blunt as a pin.
