That’s right for some reason Jim has a blog

So I was lurking the HMF survivor board, something I find myself doing less and less and came across a small RP forum run by one of the members on the site. Now I know must would not look at something like that but the lurker within me decided that I needed another board to lurk on.

The RP itself seems rather flawed in it’s execution, mainly because it is a medieval RP sort of like my Aurora Chronicles, but it is run like an Harvest Moon RP, IE Static places where events occur. Now I’m all for it when there your character does not stand the chance of being chased down by a band of brigands through so many places in a town.

So I stopped lurking for the night and signed off, when I signed on the next day I noticed that I had been upgraded to a global moderator and was able to access their secret forum. Now I did not ask for the position, but I am not going to downright object to such a change, even if my first intent was to lurk. Of course I did state my problems with the way they planned on running things and all of a sudden I’m in charge of the RP all together, maybe. The lurker within me was of course not happy about this, but as a writer I decided to go ahead and take up the offer, though I do not want to have all the say in the fun. I asked for a council to be made so that ideas could be discussed at length with other moderators to get an idea of what the higher ups are looking for.

In the mean time it’s time to play one of Jim’s favorite games, choose his character. Now medieval takes my options down to five, and with the way it’s set up Isaac would not suit the place which eliminates two of them. An older version of Melayna (My channeling priestess) and Ivan (My perverted sorcerer) are the only real two that I can possibly consider using . I do have one last card up my sleeve though. I’ve been running the idea of using a descendant of Isaac through my head, and so far it does seem all that bad. How far back am I going to go in time? Well I think I’ll go as far back as to use a great grandfather (perhaps just grandfather) of Isaac (My divine knight), considering looks tend to skip generations at a time he probably will look almost exactly like Isaac. The only trouble with that idea is having to think up a new personality for an old character as well as a new set of weapons, though I might do the lazy thing and make him a swordsman especially considering that Isaac has very limited magical potential.

All and all it’s just one more thing do add to my to do list, though I have to admit this is keeping my skill at it’s peak. I hope soon to even overcome my current level, which is a possibility, but I feel that if I do reach the next level I may have to return to the old boards to RP with those that I considered better than I could ever become.
