You can ask any Out of Character questions here and use it to talk about the RP. I'll probably make an FAQ (like I did with the last Elements RP I made) when people start asking questions.

Sandy Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Not having played in any of your Elements RPGs before (I'm pretty sure there've been several of them in the past, though), I have to ask whether there's some crucial information I should know about them? Or do they link to this game at all? What about our character powers? The recruitment thread instructed that they should start from as minuscule as possible. Will the characters carry any weapons with them, then? Will they later gain access to some super-duper-elemental-armors like Power Rangers or sorts? I know, it would be kind of cheesy, but who knows what you've planned for the game? ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doublehex Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I did, and I found two pages worth of 'Elementa' RPs. The word elemental is not exactley the most creative and direct title in the world... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 The key is to do an advanced search for Titles Only. Here are White's "Elements" RPGs: [U][url]http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=29466&highlight=Elements[/url][/U] An old one, called [B]Elements: The Order of the Fenix[/B]. Not a very original title, is it White? ;P [U][url]http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=41697&highlight=Elements[/url][/U] The second oldest, from 2004, called [B]Elements: Rewind[/B]. Hmm, seems like a pretty traditional RPG. [U][url]http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=53919&highlight=Elements[/url][/U] This is [B]Elements Online[/B] from this very summer, now with MMORPG flavors. Puts me wondering, the last game had the number [B]VI[/B] on it. Are there even more Elements RPGs besides these three that you were involved in, White? I think it's just interesting to find out about the history of this series of yours. It's kinda like Final Fantasy, where all the parts are separate from each other, but still share many similiarities. Intriguing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doublehex Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Why the heck are you here? You didn't even apply for the RP! ...I just fuled the fire, now didn't I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakura Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 [COLOR=Navy]I'm pretty sure there are other installments to the series, like [B]Element X[/B] and the sequels to that if I'm not mistaken? Which is how the MMORPG got the VI. And anyone can post in Underground threads even if they're not joining the RP.[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Yes, Sakura is right. There are a few others. I just wasn't under the name White when I posted 'em (Sandy, you should know this from Knowing Me, Knowing You!). Here they are (ontop of what Sandy already posted). Alright, so before Elements: Online, Elements: Rewind and Elements: Order of the Fenix (which by the way I came up with before the book for Harry Potter came out) there was (in order from latest to oldest) [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=26880]Element X: Death's Revenge[/url], [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=23197]Element X[/url], and [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=19829]Elements: The Wonders[/url] (my very first one).[/FONT][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adas Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 wow... now THATS alot of elements before this one. Lol White, I just checked out the origional - Elements Wonders. ...hmm... something sounds oddly framiliar about the storyline there dude... :animesmil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doublehex Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 EXcept that first thread was total crap, devoid of detail, inspiration, backstory, and any hope for a future. Not to mention its not even fourty lines long! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Give me a break, it was 2003. I guess you'd have to have been a member back then to really understand. :p Anyway, I'll be closing the sign-ups in a couple days seeing as we technically have all the sign-ups we need. I'm only waiting to see if anyone cares to compete for a spot.[/FONT][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheResplendent Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 [font=tahoma]Hm, i was actually going to inquire as to whether spots can be competed for or not. I think i'll give it a shot, if you don't mind White. Wanted to sign up when i first saw it, but it was fairly late last night and i had counted on grabbing a spot today. Turns out those spots went pretty quickly :p It should be up anywhere between now and a couple of hours. [/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekkaman Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen][color=darkred]White[/color], I edited my starting ability for the water element. Just thought I should let you know here. And excuse me for trying to emulate another person who could walk on water.

Time is a pretty nifty elemental as well... But I'm sure White doesn't want to overdo it, though. Sorry, White for not remembering your past nicks. X) I was kind of thinking you might be Winged-Kid, but the quality of the thread baffled even [I]me[/I], who was around here at that time. ;P The [I]awesome[/I] quality, mind you.

Veritas Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 [size=1][color=dimgray]I would also like to know if you could compete for spots, even though I hate doing it. I just got back from Vegas today and missed the sign up start. More elements would be nice like Sandy said, lol. Looks like me and BK are stuck in the same spot for now.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 [color=darkred][size=1]More elements would be fine. I myself am not a big fan of wind and would gladly give it to BK for something else. If White allows it that is[/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 [size=1]I may hope so. If White for example thinks 'DoubleHex' is absolute shite, he might want to have someone else in his place instead. By the way, I liked Elements: Online's idea better, though it never got far. ;-; There are so many RPs with elements as a main part of the storyline. I should know, I've made multiple of them in the past. <<; But I'll still be reading the story. :'3 [b]Edit:[/b] Oh, and there [i]are[/i] 6 elements RPs already? I thought you were just being original, really. XD[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Asphyxia Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 [font=Arial][size=2][color=DarkGreen]You know, I have been looking for an Old School RPG like this for somewhat more than a year.[Call me old fashioned [img]http://otakuboards.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] ] So if there are more positions going to be added in, then I would love to apply for Sandy's brilliant 'Time' idea. Plus, I now have time for an RPG. [Haha, pun half-intended. XD] [/color][/size][/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 [COLOR=DiMGrey][FONT=Tahoma]After much talking, Adas and I have decided to add [b]3[/b] more elements to the list. So, on top of Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, Nature and Thunder, we've added Ice, Metal and Psychic. Go crazy. :bdance: And yeah, to repeat what I said earlier, you [i]can[/i] compete for spots.[/FONT][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheResplendent Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 [font=tahoma]Sazabi you can go ahead and resign your char if you didn't want wind. I had intended to sign up as wind from the beggining to i don't mind sticking with it. Good idea with adding more elements though, though i have a soft spot in my heart for good ol Ice (because of CAF) i already had Jake's character thought out specifically for this spot.[/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 [color=darkred][size=1]Already done BK so don't worry about it. Thanks again White for the new elements. Bk already had the better singup for wind so he deserved it anyway. [/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate competiting but I'm not going to change it anymore, so there. Hah. [/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Eep, the battle for the spots in this RPG is getting rough! 8( I'm just extremely glad that nobody has decided to compete for the element of my character... Anyway, I don't want to control this game or anything, but does anybody agree with me that "eleven elemental warriors" sounds a bit odd? Maybe I'm just too accustomed to Three Witches, Seven Dwarves, Twelve Knights etc... One more element would make the number a nice round twelve... Plus, the competition would not have to be that cruel, then. The more the merrier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
