Want an OC in the main plot? Post here!

We are diverging from it, but not too much. I mean, we can change a bit, but ultimately the canon characters need to act in generally the same way they do in the canon or it's OOC. We can change up the scenarios they face a bit, but their goals, thought process, etc will be the same and therefore result in similar actions by them, though they won't be entirely the same.

-_- In other words, it's not changing hardly at all except to fit in with FS's slightly differing timeline. Nevermind, thanks.

Yes, I fear she may be MIA. Since it's been a week since I last check her account.. I'll send her a e-mail now.

I think the site has a Katara-eating disease. Maybe we should make her into a permanent NPC... <_< >_>

That might be a good idea, if the Gaang ever plans to actually have a canon plot on here. >>

And it's fitting in OC characters, therefore changing the plot.

But seriously, what exactly do you want? Aang's goal is to defeat the Fire Lord, the FN's is to conquer the Earth Kingdom, etc. We've already introduced a whole lot of changes to the plot. There's going to be an actual siege of BSS, there was a second attack on the NWT, Toph joined the Gaang in Omashu, Zuko gained a new travelling companion...there's a ton of stuff that's different. If you actually have an idea, voice it.

The things I crossed out are due entirely to FS's having non canon characters in the first place, OR because our timeline was different, or because it doesn't matter.

And it doesn't matter if I had an idea or not. Because it won't go through.

1) The siege of BSS has nothing to do with either of those reasons

2) Plenty of RPs don't even allow the OCs to do more than glimpse the canons on occasion, so simply having OCs does NOT guarantee them a place in the plot.

3) No one can tell if your idea will go through or not unless you actually say what it is. Yes, there is no guarantee it will happen. I've had plenty of ideas that haven't happened. If you have an idea, post a thread for it and see what people think. That was the entire purpose of this thread in the first place, was to test this idea.

Anyway, from now on, this thread will be where people post to put there OC somewhere in the plot. Explain who they are, what they'll be doing, what NPCs/plot point they'll be replacing or providing, and provide a reasoning.

There's a good chance it'll happen, since this isn't an official application, but seeing as we are bleeding Katara players right now, it could be a bit.

Eh, Hi Muqali

Hey guy, I'm profoundly sorry t0o say that I may not have Au´´a finished by now. Thing is, I lost my interest on it and I cannot fulfill the character now as I first wanted him to be. Sorry for the delay on telling you that but it is that I tried several times to work o him by these days. However, I fear he may not be done untill the angaang goes through the library scenario. I'm sorry bro. Hope you fin another char to fit Muqali in the story.

[mulaqi]

Very well. Zei can either be NPCed, played by someone else, or replaced by someone else.

I was thinking that maybe legends of the Spirit Library existed in the Si Wong anyway, and that the nomads there might know the general area in which it lies. Maybe the Gaang could ask some of the Sand Nomad characters to guide them and they could pool their knowledge of the legends to figure out a more specific area? Anyone else with Sand Nomads like the idea enough to participate?

[jialingjin]

BTW, we need a Si Wong Desert board. (And a Gaoling one would be nice.) I shall ask Xia on the matter.

[erlang]

aden had an idea that would work for erlang but im too burnt out to rememeber at the moment XD

[iikagen]

...I must have had too much green tea too, cuz I don't remember at all. ;D

In any case, if you want someone to show the Gaang to the library, or at least get them in the general area I'd be willing to volunteer Nasrin. She's been all over the desert, and it wouldn't be unreasonable to say she's seen one of those spirit foxes before during her travels. Even if she's never seen the Library, she could lead them to where she saw the fox and then point them in the right direction.

She'll hopefully be back in the desert after her current thread, which would give us decent timing if we're going to have Aang learn a little bending from Toph first.

[mulaqi]

All right then, it's settled. Plan for Nasrin, Muqali and the Gaang to show up in the Oasis after their threads are wrapped up, then? The Gaang is actually supposed to clash with Zuko in Gaoling, or that's the plan, so that should give plenty of time for Nasrin's thread to finish.

In fact, I actually thought of another idea! Maybe Zuko could follow them to the desert, and Nasrin could be one group's guide while Muqali could be the other's. That'd be pretty fun., I think.

[jialin]

I was thinking that when/if we get to the point in canon basically during 'The Headband' that it could be altered so that Meilan plays the part of the Fire Nation children.

[mulaqi]

Seems fine with me, Meilan. If we ever get there (lolwe'reslowlol) that'd be fine.
