My character will go with Dalanius. I like how Ceyla interacts with him. She has problems starting relationships, so it'll being interesting to write that in (as long as it is okay with Illusion). I like kenshinsbabe's character Kacela, too. As a side note, one of my friends IRL just joined OB and might be joining if it's alright.

The eigth season is definitely screwed up. I hate the character of Randy, who is a horrible replacement for both Eric and Kelso (like the actor, though). The storyline disregards the previous seven seasons of character development. Writers should not make their own characters OOC. My least favorite change is that Hyde left Jackie for a stripper. Hyde is a druggie, but he is still too advanced intellectually to stay married to a stripper. I hate Sam's character, if only because she's just boring and bland. Thankfully, she's gone now. I loved the Jackie/Hyde pairing. It worked much better than Jackie/Kelso. Hyde showed feelings, and Jackie was almost down-to-earth. They were in love--as far as imaginary couples are concerned--and their interaction was more interesting than Eric and Donna's relationship. And they had him marry a [I]stripper[/I]. Now Jackie likes Fez? After hating foreigners for eight seasons? Fez is one of my favorites, but I miss the interaction between him and Kelso. Even Red and Kitty are not as good. Losing Eric does not bother me that much, but isn't the last season used to tie up loose ends instead of creating completely different plots to follow? I have been highly disappointed. And I am sure the rich Fox executives value my opinion. :rolleyes:

My 8th grade Algebra 1 teacher taught me nothing. We had an idiot substitute for months, and when a new permanent teacher arrived, he completely started over. He also made mistakes all the time so we had to correct him. He [B]told[/B] us he was stupid. Because of this, I do not know algebra. Which means for algebra 2 and most other math classes, I am completely screwed. Now I'm in 9th grade; my advanced geometry teacher is a genius. He has found mistakes in the math book. He knows everything about every known or unknown subject. I have always hated math, but I like this teacher. There is no way known to man to make him look stupid. Frankdog knows more math than God.

Arrows of Cellah's hit the dragon, and Neko cast a spell then slashed it with her sword. Ceyla ran closer and cut into its neck. The terrible dragon continued to stand after that attack; it was putting up one hell of a fight. Ceyla hacked at every inch of penetrable hide. The scales provided amazing resistance. Once again Ceyla was forced back as the dragon breathed flame. Neko managed to avoid being hit as well. Once again the dragon was hit in the neck as Cellah shot an arrow into its neck. The dragon only needed a couple more sure hits before it fell into death's embrace. They almost had it beaten. From the corner of Ceyla's eye she caught sight of another person running towards them. At first she feared it was another enemy, but a smile involuntarily graced her face as she identified the person as Dalanius. He had been safe, as she had hoped. The dragon's movement snapped her back to the battle at hand. Ceyla struck once again struck the dragon and yelled, "A little more help is always appreciated, Dalanius!"

Ceyla wondered how everyone else was doing. With any hope the other three were together. She had not seen Dalanius within the castle, but she was sure he would be close. He usually guarded the back of the group. She did not want to ponder the possibility that he would not be there. By now Cellah had calmed considerably, and Neko seemed to be breathing more lightly. Ceyla still felt restless, wishing to do something more than sit and play with knives. As one of the recruits came running in, she remembered the adage '[I]Be careful what you wish for.[/I]' "Miss Ceyla!" Reid cried outside the door. "There's--" He broke off and she rushed outside. All three men had been knocked to the ground, but seemed to be breathing. Their injuries, however, were not her highest priority at the moment. Before her stood a dragon three times her height. Ominous yellow eyes glared at her. Its blue-green scales shifted with any slight movement from the beast. She could not tell if it was of the fire-breathing variety. With the menacing claws, teeth, and tail it did not need to breathe fire to be intimidating. Ceyla narrowly avoided a sweep of its keen claw. She manuevered close to its exposed belly and gave one quick slash. The wound was not a killing blow, but anything will eventually die if it has enough wounds. "Neko, Cellah, this would be a good time to get up!" she screamed. If the dragon killed her without them waking up, then they would be defenseless. The boys were unconscious as well, which caused further worry. A small spurt of flame over Ceyla's head confirmed that this dragon certainly could breathe fire. The battle became more complicated. Ceyla got in a few more blows, but had to put her main focus on dodging. All she needed was for the beast to be distracted.

Ceyla sighed resignedly as Kacela headed back towards the castle. Being left out of the action did not sit well with her, but she knew someone had to watch her team mates. Once inside the fort she set Cellah down on a reed mat to meditate and had the men lay Neko on a bed. "Is she an elf?" Owen asked. He had helped carry Neko. "Yes. Keep useful and watch for any monsters," she said in irritation and narrowed her eyes. "I still have no qualms about getting rid of you." The young man clamped his mouth shut and hurried out of the room. [I]Most people do irritate me easily, but I am still not handling myself very well[/I], she judged. [I]Doing nothing makes me feel unsettled. At least no one in the king's group annoys me[/I]. Cellah sat meditating and slowly regained her composure. Neko stirred slightly and fell back, but Ceyla was hopeful she would regain consciousness soon. "You all better hurry back," Ceyla muttered under her breath with a blank face and voice. "Die and I swear I will kill you." She started tossing her stiletto, a habit she did when nervous. All she could do was wait; wait for the women to regain their senses or wait for the others to return. She did not like waiting, and liked worrying even less.

Chrono Crusade Next time it might be good to put a hint. :animeswea New scramble: samhias mikstooih Hint: Ninja Centerfold

*Super Magic Neko-neko Pretty Sprinkles Sugar Attack!!!!* With the magic words, your wish has been granted. Reno is 20 miles away instead of 50. Unfortunately, it is 20 miles underground, making it impossible to reach, as well as making everyone who was in the city suffocate. Those poor prostitues and casinos. I wish could have the perfect cosplay costume from any series to wear whenever I wished.

Ceyla found the others and saw a flash as the goblin disappeared. Vincent was wounded but still moving. He whistled for their horses, gave something to Kacela, and went back into the castle with Dalanius. Ceyla held a hand near her wound and prayed that neither would be hurt. She would not forgive herself if he died while she was unable to fight. She moved closer to the other women. Kacela gave both her and Neko a potion. The effects took effect quickly as she no longer felt any pain. After Vincent had spoken to Cellah, the young huntress had curled up into a ball. Ceyla belatedly remembered the girl's need for meditation and that she sometimes became overstressed. Tears poured from Cellah's eyes. "Cellah... Cellah are you okay?" the assassin asked, but Celah did not respond. "I think... we have a problem." Neko neared and asked, "What is it?" "I think Cellah's lost it. She won't answer me." Kacela came over as well. They needed to help the despondent huntress and rejoin the men. "Cellah..." Kacela called. "Cellah, come on, wake up. That harpy is someone close to you, right? We need to help Vincent. We can find a way to help your friend too if you snap out of it."

I'm having writer's block. This is all my feeble imagination could dish out. Basic plot: After Zylon dies, Ceyla stays to be an official soldier/assassin of the king. She and the rest of the group are attacked by unknown mercenaries. She has kept up contact with her brothers. They visit and she learns they were also attacked. Someone is targeting all the people she cares for in addition to her. Being an assassin for five years has given her a lot of potential enemies, so she cannot be certain who it is that wants revenge. If any more detail is needed, tell me. I have a basic idea of everything, but I'm not certain if it would work out.

Yes, I like Tales of Symohonia. I love it. I adore it. I have no game I like better on the Gamecube. In case you did not know, ToS is a great RPG. The story follows a young girl named Colette who is the Chosen of Mana. Instead of being Colette, you are her friend Lloyd Irving, a self-taught 17-year-old swordsman who has a strong sense of justice, despite the fact that his best ever test score was 25 out of 400. The game has several interesting twists involving the Goddess Martel and a hero of legend. Game play spans at least 60 hours. Even if you are not fond of role playing games, this could easily be an exception. The battle system worked very well. It is like a simplified fighting game with tons of techniques and 9 unique characters. You can take direct control over one party member, or let them all be automatic. The others act on their own with good A.I., which is fortunate since you will need everyone's skill in battle. You can have their moves set as short-cuts, and you have several options for overall battle commands. Moves can be combined, and you can set up huge combos. My only complaint is that the final boss is too easy to beat, especially compared to one nasty optional boss, who is found in the Devil's Arms side quest. The graphics are nice with detailed people and monsters and bright colors, although some people do not care for the almost-chibi character sizes. Personally, I loved the anime-based style. A few cut-scenes are pure anime, and those are especially stunning. The only down side is that there aren't many of them, and most are near the game's end. The ability to skip cut scenes would also be appreciated. Important scenes have voice acting. The voices and dialogue can be called a little cheesy, but it is still better than the usual American voice-over. Playing straight through the game takes a good while to complete. With all the sidequests offered, you will definitely recieve your money's worth for replay value. I have spent over 200 total hours playing and beating it twice, and I still have not done all possible quests! This game will remain one of my favories for years to come. I love the unique characters and never get tired of playing. This is a must-have for any RPG fan or Gamecube owner. P.S.: Tales of Symphonia was made as a sort of prequel to Tales of Phantasia. Some of the story points click, such as a special tree and a certain character with the last name "Fujibayashi" is available. That game has been ported to the GBA and is currently sucking up my life.

Ceyla's horse reared as she pulled herself on its back. They had focused their attacks on the creatures and cleared some of the path. Orcs still fought near the town where Kacela and Neko were. Cellah was the first to find one of their comrades. Neko had been injured but could still fight. They located Kacela not long after, also injured but still able to move. "Where's Vincent?" Kacela asked immediately. "H-he went alone to the castle," Cellah answered. "The fight is likely to be over by the time we arrive," Dalanius said. "Which means we help Vincent with his wounds or try to finish off the princess's kidnapper..." Ceyla said. The group hurried to Ravenbrook to see the outcome of the mission.

[quote name='The Boss][color=darkgreen][size=1][B]I wish I was Jack Krauser from Resident Evil 4. Who can kill Krauser? Nobody, that's who.[/B][/color'][/size][/quote] Wish granted! You are now Krauser. Unfortunately, Capcom tends to rehash every game in their library. Krauser has been thrown into the Street Fighter series, along with Mega Man. A little experiment is done. You are still the original Krauser, but you lose the game because you are now faced with something bigger than yourself: a Krauser in Mega Man's costume who has the ears, tail, paws, and hair of Felicia. *shudders* I take it to the twisted place. I wish I were able to play any video game that ever existed whenever and wherever I choose.

We misunderstood where your character was Sazabi. So... what will happen? Is the RP still continuing? If it is, a post or two might need a few changes. Is your character going to fight Zylon alone or do all of the characters need to be there?

I have seen two or three volume packs of manga, like .hack//Legend of the Twilight or Wolf's Rain in a box-set, but I don't think they sell (at least in America) bundles larger than that. Also, the ones I saw cost the same as if you bought them separately, only they came with a cardboard box worth about $1. The box art [I]was[/I] nice, though.

Hope you don't mind me answering, digiX. It started awhile ago and ended at the end of March. It's on the second page of Adventure Square. If it gets started again, I think I might rejoin.

This is a sad, shameful, and embarassing moment. My first game was Pokemon Gold. I reached the Elite Four after many hours of hard work. My Typhlosion was at a really high level (like 80-something), but every other Pokemon I had was only about level 20. I stayed up until 4 A.M. playing, and died on the last person(forgot the names). I literally burst into tears, but I was only in 4th or 5th grade. Yes, I have no life. It's been a few years and I'm not that emotional about games now, and I don't even play Pokemon anymore, but I remember that moment clearly. As for happier gaming moments, I was so happy the first time I played and beat Link's Awakening DX, which was also about 5th grade. Tales of Symphonia's optional boss Abyssion was also satisfying to defeat. He is [I]way[/I] harder than the last battle. I'm hoping Tales of Phantasia will be as good as ToS. I spent over total 200 hours on Tales of Symphonia between replays, so ToP looks good.

If I could, I would buy all three systems. Unfortunately, I am poor, and the cost of buying each new console and one game apiece would cost more than two months' rent. Nintendo will always be my favorite company. I am most looking forward to the Revolution. It is supposed to have different attachments for the nunchaku controller, including a cover in the style of a regular controller. First-person shooters would be more accurate and easily controlled. The possibilities of the online play are also intriguing. Can you imagine how an online swordplay game where you fight like you're swinging a real sword? Or spell-casting by drawing runes in the air? Not to mention the great, exclusive franchises like Zelda and Metriod. To me, the Revolution will offer both new and old styles with more freedom in the genres. I believe Nintendo will be able to pull it off. The DS is doing well enough in the innovation area, and I expect the Revolution to do the same. It will be my main console, but with the low price point a lot of people might make it their second. I don't have any Sony consoles, but the PS3 does sound promising. The line-up of games is reason enough with Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid, and Devil May Cry, as already mentioned. PlayStation rules the console world right now, so there is a good chance of that trend continuing. Depending on how much I really want to play the games, I might save up for a PS3. Xbox never held much appeal for me except for a handful of games. If I won one in a contest I would keep it, of course, but I have not seen anything that makes me "crave" it yet. Oblivion 4 looks pretty nice, though.

Ceyla fought back viciously as the freakish monsters kept coming. Neko had not been able to follow them into the forest, most likely to go back to town, Vincent had left the forest, and Kacela followed him at top speed. To her relief Dalanius was still with her at the moment, so were Cellah and the new men, but her hopes for winning had faded. "Those idiots!" Ceyla screamed. "This is pointless. If they were going to back off they should have told us [I]all[/I] to retreat! That's the point of being in a group!" The creatures had completely surrounded them. One suddenly broke the circle the remaining warriors had made and bit Ceyla's back savagely, leaving blood pouring from the wound. She stumbled back. One of the others killed it, but she was too stunned to tell who. "We need to leave," she called to the others as she tried bandaging the awkward wound. For the moment, Dalanius guarded her while she stuanched the bleeding. "We can't let these creaures kill us. Let's escape and regroup with the others, and then we'll head to Ravenbrook." OoC: I changed my post. We need to get our characters back together.

Since LoadedPistol forgot to make a wish... [quote name='Lord Dante']I wish i could Shread like Michaelangelo (y'know the only guitarist to ever play a quad guitar)[/quote] You can now shred like Michaelangelo. Guess what? You can even shred [I]better[/I] than Michaelangelo. You play so hard, the guitar strings cut into your fingers. Because you've been given your musical prowess through an evil guitar spirit, you can never stop. Until you die of bloodloss, that is. I wish to be the world's best video game player in every type of game.

Ceyla heard the anger in Dalanius's voice, but did not ask him about it. She knew he appreciated silent understanding more than intrusive questioning. Vincent spoke to them about why it was better to leave the town. As he finished speaking, a large beast of undetermined species pounced on him. He fought the beast off and told them to take care of the others. Ceyla belatedly noticed the glowing eyes advancing towards them. The horses were becoming unnerved, and she hoped they would not run. She cursed a oaths unfit for anyone to say and drew her dagger. Fights followed them like a plague on this quest, but it was no surprise given their mission. Every warrior in the group had weapons drawn. Ceyla stood near Dalanius and smiled mirthlessly as two of the creatures pounced. He struck the first and her blade swiftly followed, catching the other in the neck. She might have a shorter range with her stiletto but she knew the best places to strike. "Let's make this quick," she muttered under her breath. "A long battle in this place is not going to be favorable to us." Dalanius nodded. Each warrior was ready to fight. Adrenaline quickly began flowing through Ceyla's veins. With the quiet style befitting an assassin, she launched herself at another of the monsters without uttering a warning.

Ceyla smiled grimly as as she looked into the forbidding forest. Vincent rode a few paces ahead; he was not waiting for cowards. Ceyla glared at the three new group members, and the men slowly rode in. [I]I believe I'm a little scarier than these trees,[/I] Ceyla thought with some amusement. They followed the old path into the increasingly dark forest. Darkness was Ceyla's element; she thought more clearly, felt safer being hidden in it. This forest, however, held none of the comfort she had come to associate with shadows. Vincent's description hit the mark. The trees themselves seemed evil. Ceyla moved her horse closer to Dalanius. She had quickly become attached to the paladin, and not just as a comrade. Relationships had never been her forte, not since the incident with her parents four years back, and she was unsure of what to do. [I]This is...definitely more difficult than what I'm used to. Who's to say he even feels the same?[/I] "Not the cheeriest of places, is it?" she said, just to break the eerie silence that had settled over the ominous wood. "I rather be in open battleground to this; at least then I would be able to see my enemies. I prefer the shadows to open spaces, but this place is completely sinister."
