I’d be happy to have you join this story of mine, but first you’ll need to create a character. Once your character sheet is submitted, I’ll look it over, and once I approve it we can work out how your character will be introduced.

[ProfSrlojohn]

By the way, let me know when you’re free to do that spar Max.

[ValkyriePrimal]

I have a bit of a packed work schedule this week, so I can’t promise I’ll be super active. But as far as in game goes, we’ll be good to go after this next little event.

[ProfSrlojohn]

Sure thing. Just hit me with an @ or something.

When the dust settled, the two would find a very excited looking dragon. Maximus stood, his tail rapidly swishing back and forth. Lightning surged across his body. And a large bird was perched on his back.

The bird had dark blue metallic feathers, and long wire like tail feathers.

“We’re not keeping it.”
Axis said, before Maximus had so much as a chance to open his mouth.

Bah she’s just jealous of it stealing her napping spot. Don’t listen to her Maximus.

[ValkyriePrimal]

When she says “There’s no room for pets in the Sleipnir” we all know she really means “You already have a favorite bird, and I’m not going anywhere.”

Which way is the Strider going?

[ValkyriePrimal]

The strider is moving west, towards the group. While we’ve been moving east.

[ProfSrlojohn]

Sorry, so is the Strider remotely big enough for that? I’m not sure.

[ValkyriePrimal]

Big enough for what exactly?

[ProfSrlojohn]

For the spar.

@ajtazt

After several rounds of I Spy, they had moved on to trying to spot targets in the distance

“I spy with my little eye, something that is-”

“Is it sand?”

“What? No. It isn’t sand.”

“…”

“Okay yes it’s sand.”

“You can’t pick sand five times in a row.”

[Rukah]

“I spy some sandy sand.”

[BlackBeltGamer98]

So, how far are we from the camp and are the jets circling back?

[ValkyriePrimal]

Fun fact: Hoverbug’s vocalization processor has a minor glitch in it. Which is why her southern accent is inconsistent at times.

This is entirely a fun little canonical detail I’ve had in mind since I introduced her. And not at all an excuse for why I occasionally forget to write her with her accent.

[Chromeharpoon]

Every inconsistency in a GM’s style is in fact a subtle piece of worldbuilding or cleverly-disguised foreshadowing. That’s Gamemastering 101 right there.

[ValkyriePrimal]

@Rukah you should tag @TotalMaddness in your posts

[Rukah]

Ok, will do.

[ajtazt]

Though speaking of as a player that totally never make inconsistencies and most certainly didn’t only start doing it around June of the Tournament RP, my use of the name Mini-Con. I don’t know if it’s been noticed, but I thought as a fun subtle difference between how my characters think of Mini-Cons could be shown in the name’s spelling.

For characters that respect or think well of the little guys, they use the proper spelling of Mini-Con. But if they don’t, using it more in a derogatory manner, it’s Minicon or a similar error. Like in the Rectifier and Megatron flashback, both of them use Minicons when speaking while the descriptions outside of their dialogue use Mini-Cons, since it is supposedly from Railgun’s memory.

Whether every instance of the spelling should indicate anything outside of dialogue or a character’s thoughts, I haven’t decided yet.
