What do you mean by weapons in turrets?
Weapons that can rotate to shoot anywhere?

Wait, we're supposed to be PMing actions now? I thought that was after the princessy stuff for some reason.

Three non-free actions per turn, right?

GWG, I think you'll have to take it at some point about how innately absurd and mishmashed this type of game is.
Yeah...it's in that weird spot where it isn't silly enough for me to not take it seriously, but it's too absurd for me to take it seriously.

If this game isn't to your suiting, perhaps you should leave. I'm not saying this out of any ill-will, I'd just want you to spend your time on something else that you would enjoy and/or find productive, rather than something that isn't your style out of its very nature.
Yeah.

/*"I just hugged Jack the Ripper!"*/
"Should that concern me?"
Probably.

He silently promises to himself that he'll get into both Bismuth's and Ashley's good graces.
Good Shys'm Caes, Kyle really DOES ship KylexEveryone.

<That would make two of us...>
Kyle needs to work on his counting abilities.
Bismuth, Kyle, Maria, Yuri, Shys'm Caes, and Nuriel makes six.

Too bad. Pistol < giant fucking sword. These are sturdy target things.
Even so, a pistol's at least going to make a hole.

Alice thinks it over before nodding. "That is why we exist. If that means I am not welcome in this world because of it, then so be it... there's a conflict in Africa that can appreciate my skills... even if they'll hate me no matter what I do... at least if I join, some people will hate me less."
This will be...interesting.

hmm, still no word from elf to comment on my plot outline, damn him
until then, I had a nice idea for a gap filler, comedic and inconsequential enough to be easily retconned to have happened whenever...
*grumbles about TV show plotlines*

idea pool so far: talent show, costume contest, battle royal, fanservice, offense, defence
Fanservice?

Bear in mind that, despite being called Rise of the Magic Girls, most tropes relating to actual magic girl shows have either faded away into the background or never existed. And this also takes itself more seriously than said shows. (Usually.)

Considering some of the characters in this RP, suitable events include:
-snip-
A lot of those are illegal, unethical, and redundant.

question regarding magical forms, personae etc

mostly it seems that magical forms seems rather independant, I quite often see them both talk during the same conversation etc - but what about in combat? does the character have to transform into her magical form, and how do wounds on either form influence the other once transformed? what if the magical form is knocked out or killed, what about the nonmagical form?

same set of questions regarding personae
The characters do have to transform, but I don't think anything has canonically been said by Elf about how things affecting one body affect the other. Elf has had Selina sleeping and transforming into an awake Ghost, though, so it seems separate.
Who the hell knows about personae? That stuff's crazy, man.

<Why did Kyle create an overly impractical weapon?>
<You need to ask?>

<Cyrielle. If you push that either the universe is going to instantly destroy all record of it's existence and thus me. Or it will stop working.>
<Pretty major weakness if you ask me. I would have gone with plasma in a magnetic containment field or something like that; much less likely to cause you to accidentally stop existing.>

<Yes, though I am not sure how it would help.>
<Could you share?>

<Knowing something's True Name is incredibly powerful, in Magic. If you know someone's Name, with the right magical knowledge, you could force them to follow any order you wish. You could find them wherever they try to hide. You could kill them, and they could not defend against it. Essentially, if you know a being's True Name, you own them.>
<Do you--or anyone else listening in--know what kind of principles True Names are formed by? Are they names like John and Mary, or are they words or phrases like Fire or Red Rising Sunset of Gloom, or are they random syllables like Kylarsomal? Is there any rhyme or reason to it? How would you figure out one's true name? How would you find your own true name? What would happen if you did? Is it possible for true names to change?>

<Any chance of having Will determine Ra's true name then?>
<It's... Highly unlikely, though he might be able to manage it?>
<I thrive on the...well, I'd prefer to say impossible, but unlikely works too.>

<I wonder what would happen if we get some of the Indigenous Australian deities involved, after all, Ra did intrude upon their domain... and Australia does have an awfully large amount of venomous organisms...>
<Didn't we talk about not getting other pantheons involved?>

<I haven't cut it off yet.>
Cue sigh of relief.

<And seducing Ra only works once.>
<Trying to will definitely work, but I'm not sure Ra bats for that team. And you'd better not bring another set of explosive handcuffs.>

Why not? Are you unable to see the map or something?

I think I've played this game before, IRL.

Is there a book behind the green glass door?

Charge at the Tollman. Deliver one-liner:
"Sir, we have some complaints on your policies."

Yay! Thank you.

Kyle groans.

Seems like self mutilation is occurring.
<...Alright, here's an idea. CONNY! Kyle's going to cut his own arm off!>

7557
Really?

...Could you PM me the sheet parts? And a copy of the requested sheet format?

He's PM-threatened to kill me!
...Okay, you might have a point there. But I think you're overall more capable of killing people.

WHY CANT I SIG YOU!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Sig thread.
It solves all.

-1 to fencing. If the boy's gonna learn how to use a blade it needs to be a knife and he needs to learn how to fight with it. You might not always have a suitable fencing weapon, but you can always carry a knife. Maybe when he's older, yeah?

+1 to reading suggestion, and also keeping the orphans around. I'll need them soon.
+1

-1 to the rest. You monsters.
