Hmm, we'll, in that sense, my character has no address, since he is moving constantly, and, that undercity, is in itself a kind of Pangea, since it stretches through all the world, but, for a more precise location, Sarpedon was born in a long forgotten tunnel that was underwater



Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/1/2012 23:28:51)

Hm, I'd kind of hoped the Advanced Continent had been across the sea or something from the Magical one, would explain why they don't even know what Magic is. If it was a Pangaea-esque place that wouldn't really make any sense at all. Plus I doubt RD wouldn't noticed a city underneath them given how advanced they are.



Mortarion -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/1/2012 23:34:29)

It's not cities, The Cult fled underground, and over time, they had tunneled underneath all the continents, thus it's some sort of "Pangaea" in the sense that all of those tunnels are connected together, mind you, I could link TC with all of your bios, that's if you don't want me to scrap The Cult

@Glaisaurus

Or simply put, they kept 'quiet' about it.

Anyway, Mortarion's idea of a Pangaea is plausible. Since this is an undercity, it could might as well be something akin to Atlantis, well except that it was rumored to be under the sea, Mortarion's undercity literally takes place below the crusts of the planet. Like Atlantis, we never discovered it, and simply reasoned that it was possible it never existed at all. Could be the same for the RD.

As for the base of operations of the RD, it could be North America.



Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/1/2012 23:53:25)

Just to be clear, is this taking place on actual Earth or just an Earthlike Planet with similar composition? I'd kind of prefer the latter myself.



lordkaho -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 0:04:22)

We are using Earth and its nations as a basis. Creating a whole planet complete with different civilizations from scratch would be too much of a headache for us.



Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 0:05:17)

Oh. Alright then. Suppose North America works.



lordkaho -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 1:30:08)

May I have a proposition?

What about a system of routes? The character routes will be posted in the main post.

Each of our characters take certain routes into the story, somehow similar to a game. This will help us track of our character's progress .

An example:

quote:



Legend-

Character Name
-Last known location, Last chapter character appeared in

--------------------------


Victor Stein
-Red Chapel City, "Chapter XI: A Night To Remember"

Galatea
-Olmund Ossuary, "Chapter VII: Diva of Dismay"

Sarpedon
-York, "Chapter XX: Gangland"

Verge
-'RD' Crematorium, "Chapter XIII: Fuel of Life"



While this may sound something like RP, like I said before, this is simply a method for us to get a hold of where our characters are going. Considering all 4 of us are main characters, each with their own goals and stories, it would get really confusing once we have started writing this.




Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 1:55:21)

Indeed it would, and that sounds like a good to me.



lordkaho -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 2:08:59)

Well, At least it seems we have had the basics gotten hold off. The setting is good enough as it will expand itself as we go. What is important that we already agreed that the world is divided into West and Eastern Hemispheres.

Anyone want to volunteer for the prologue? That and we need a title.



Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 2:11:37)

You know, how exactly would a prologue work in something like this?



lordkaho -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 2:15:32)

Got a suggestion?

First thing that comes into mind is a brief insight to the world then fast forward to a scene showcasing each of our characters briefly. But I guess that is too overdone.




Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 2:22:14)

It's moreso I'm unsure at this point we've gotten an idea of how each author portrays the characters, thus chapters where our characters interact should be saved for later at which point we'll understand how said characters "feel" so to speak. In my opinion.



lordkaho -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 3:06:41)

Hmm...How about using the first 4 chapters, barring the prologue, about our characters? I got the idea from Soul Eater which each main character gets a prologue of their own.

The prologue to the story itself, however, could be entirely different. It could be used to introduce the 'threat' or the antagonist of our story.




Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 4:26:14)

Sounds like the better option to me.



Mortarion -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 5:17:54)

I think that the first thing we need to do, is to make a plot line that connects our characters



Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 5:53:22)

Actually yeah that would be quite important.

@Rayniedays56: ...No Comment.



Mortarion -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 5:55:20)

I mean, for example, your character Glais, could connect to Kaho's by being part,or have been part once,of the Spiraling Dawn, or TLM could have a Crush on Galatea XD



lordkaho -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 6:06:37)

Read my post about Galatea on the 2nd page. Her main role in the plot is to test the growth of your characters. Basically she acts as a 3rd party antagonist as well as being also one of the protagonists, though probably as a lesser degree to the other 3 because of her condition and the fact that she can never be part of a team.

In that post I showed a scenario of how Galatea would fit in Stein's 'route'.

-----

Still waiting for Hellsin's say on this.

Anyway, Mortarion do you have any suggestions on how we should start the prologue?




Mortarion -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 6:17:20)

I know Kaho, but it'd still be fun, and a moment of development for TLM.

And introduction, I was thinking each character having a monologue so to speak

Oh you were referring to the Living Machine having a crush on Galatea XD. I thought you meant her role in the plot.

It could be a cute scene, but unfortunately, Galatea only seeks the affection of her (non)existent father. :P

Yeah, but I think it would be better to have 1 chapter devoted to each character to give them more in depth. There's just not enough personality that you can cover by simply having our characters speak the most deep and pretentious line they can think of in just one chapter's worth of a Prologue, don't you think?

Hopefully, Van covers all the new stuff we discussed.




VanHellsin24 -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 8:41:11)

Yea give me until 1 pm today to get everything down

EDIT: OMG Victor's art! Awesome



Mortarion -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 15:27:46)

S guys, I was thinking of how our characters COULD interact between each other, but you might not like it, so, here are my ideas:

1. Sarpedon and Victor would clash on how to create a perfect world, since, as far as I know both point to that, their methods are different and opposite to each other.

2. Galatea could look for Verge so that he can make another TLM, but this time in the form of her late father.

Anyways, this are just a few random ideas, tell me what you think of it, ok?



Glais -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 15:30:37)

Yeah, funny thing is though she is literally the only other creature (somewhat) like him. So it actually makes sense.

I doubt Verge would know of The Spiral group, RD and its surrounding cities and countries are incredibly isolated from anything involving Magic. Verge stumbling on the secret of life was just an odd coincidence born by his new obsession with science. Though it does oddly mirror Sion's life in a sense.



Mortarion -> RE: [COLLAB] Project VanHo MortAurus *Under Construction* (10/2/2012 15:32:29)

Intresting, by the way Glais, did you read my post above yours?
