Speak not such evil words! HH could easily get around the blocks, if he wished! However, in HH's noble greatness, he respects the policy and reason of the government, and therefore will not do so. Otherwise, the Grand HH might incite a revolt, which would be . . . untimely.

Re: The Out of Character Thread: OBAMALLAMAPAJAMA~!

As a year has passed since I first joined the BA, many things have happened, but I would like to highlight now how everybody's characters have grown. If you remember this, I'm surprised and honored, but I would like to re-ask everybody a character question which was one of my first few posts in an OoC thread:
Quote:
Originally Posted by bonog dude View Post

I shall reword this so that things are clearer:

Character Question: An omnipotent being has confronted your character and given them the choices of losing all of their memories, losing their most personally valuable possession/s, or dying in the way they'd least like. This being is powerful enough to be able to do this to other immortals and beings who do not count among the living. The memories or possessions would be gone forever, and there will be no opportunity to rise from the dead. Your character would have 24 hours to decide.

Now, if you went back to that old post you'd notice that my answer was around a dozen words. I wish to remedy that now.

Tera: Although Tera has few very important memories (mainly of her "sisters"), there are enough that she'd prefer not losing them. Tera's most valuable possession is a unique object (her staff) and is what lets her travel safely through the void, and so she'd not want to lose that either. In the end, as she has four other people who are too important to her for her to burden them with the fact of her own death, Tera would relectantly decide to lose her memories.

Raven: Unfortunately, this one is rather simple. None of Raven's possessions are irreplacable, so she'd decide to lose whatever the omnipotent being decided was her most valuable.

Thira: Similar to Tera, Thira has both memories and possessions important to her. Eventually though, she would opt to lose her mithril bow, as although it is what lets her travel through the void, she knows that she would be able to both get a new bow, and get crystals which would allow her passage into the void.

Lumia: In this situation, Lumia would use her clairvoyance to discover the exact nature of each option, and upon finding out that losing her memories would have no effect on her personality or abilities whatsoever, she'd opt to lose them. She could always get new memories, and if any of her "sisters" found her, they'd do their best to remind her of who she was. (note that this is counted as post-OotBA; Lumia will have a possession worth keeping by then)

Rachael: Possessions without a doubt. She came into the world with nothing, and so is content to have nothing. It's all replacable anyway. :/


And in case anybody was wondering (which I doubt) and didn't bother to check, in 27 hours it will have been exactly one year since I last posted this question, give or take a few minutes.

Re: The Out of Character Thread: OBAMALLAMAPAJAMA~!

I'm noticing an increasing obsession with Greek in the BA. It all started with Lysis, and now Wolfen has his name in his CR. Strangely, Sabbo is going in the opposite direction with Japanese. XD

I'm Greek :3 Funny I rarely use Greek references, though...all my names and stuff are translations to my story's language through a fixed process I developed, so they often end up sounding like other languages, but they really don't mean anything and aren't inspired by them.

For example, most people think I got Itsuya from Japanese, but I got it the same way as Dayrose. ^_~

Like I said, TVTropes will ruin your life. Currently, it is ruining my life in the way that I want to find a trope for what made you stay up all night. Goodnight.

XD I think you're American, seeing as you live in the States . But I assume your relatives are Greek.

Can you read/write/speak Greek?

That's fair enough, but what about character/s you made between when I first asked the question and now?

And OTHER PEOPLE STILL NEED TO ANSWER THE QUESTION! If the answers have changed or they didn't answer it last time.
