View Profile Vague City: Encounters
Encounters? Really?
Working title.
Is this thread just for stories?
Discussions, ideas, planning, and questions.[/i]
Ah. So what is this?
Basically the sagas of our side characters dealing with each other.[/i]
Isn’t that O Lit?
No…? It’s to encourage people to world-build and use more than just the one character they’re limited to in wRHG and utilize one another’s characters. There can still be battles per say, but not everyone needs to be fighting.[/i]
Does it have to be with someone else?
No, but you should get the character’s writer’s green light.[/i]
No, I meant what if they’re all my characters.
A: That’s a statement. B: At that point you could post in either O Lit or the thread. Pick your poison.
So is this still like RHG?
Same world/setting. Like, if Batman’s a gladiator, this is the Teen Titans, only that ‘T’ is the entire town. Battle challenges are cool, collabs are sweet, and other non-combat battles are welcome. But because it’s not ‘official’ RHG, there’s no scoring.[/i]
If this is meant to be in the same ‘setting/world’, what happens if someone writes something I don’t like?
Same thing if someone writes a battle you don’t like. Doesn’t have to have happened in your cannon.[/i]
Alright then, so is this supposed to be like, a series of chapters that make up one huge story?
Nothing has to lead into the next thing, but it would be delightful. Standalone is fine, but I’m encouraging connections.[/i]
Any rules?
General don’t be wildly inappropriate/botch other people’s cannons without permission. Also, character profiles are preferred, and preferred to be placed here.[/i]

View Profile I'm a little confused as to what you're looking for with this thread. Could you give me an example of what you'd want in a submission? Like, say if I wanted to log an "Encounters" or whatever for Dante and the characters he's interacted with -- what would I physically be posting here on this thread?

View Profile I imagine it's for casual happenings outside the more noticed stories and events of the wRHG world.

This should answer your question Chrome. I've done something similar to this in the past; it's old, but I think it's a good example of what this thread is looking for.

View Profile Alright. So if I were to do one for Halle? Mainly asking what you want me to put in the post beyond "I have a character" and "this character has met people." Dante and Halle have both met people.
And I think I'll wait until I hear back from Crank before posting. Better safe than sorry.

View Profile Concerning Vamprina's encounter with her clan leader, Sencarn, concerning her application to the clan, I was thinking of making it an encounter as well. I initially wanted the visit to be a collaboration, but there were complications. This doesn't mean I'm scrapping the collab idea altogether; I always like people to play their own characters...because, most of the time...they're the only ones who can do it the best.

View Profile Rich has it. You can also think of it as an off brand RHG type deal. Like, if you have trouble writing stories on your own or you have a character you want to try out, there can still be battles of sorts. Like Alex Aas could duke it out with Spune, or Iris Bright could be hired to shadow Halle

View Profile So what, you want us to just conjure up and post a bunch of collabs here for you? Or link you to ones we've had already so people know who's met who? Both? Because I've had and will have plenty, and if we want them here I can link them?

View Profile Not for me per say, but I think there should be a spot for this sort of thing, and I think this sort of thing should be encouraged. People can post on the thread, but yeah, I'll take links too. Doesn't have to be the gladiators themselves though, could just be the side characters or other unaffiliated people you'd like to use in the RHG world
