XD As for her name, don't all asian names sound kind of the same?[/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"]I'll assume that's meant to be more of a joke than anything, but while certain asian cultures share similar common names there are distinct differences in the pattern and style of names for every one. Though not true of every one, Japanese names tend to be longer in length and syllables where as chinese names are shorter and have more compounding...just to name one difference. In any case, the japanese origin of your character's name is unmistakable.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allamorph Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 [FONT=Calibri]Saying all Asian languages are the same is like saying Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Italian are the same. They sound [I]similar[/I]. But they are very, [U]very[/U] different. Interesting also to note culturally, China has kind of wanted to annex Japan for a long while now, while Koreans kind of passively hate Japan because of a very cruel Japanese occupation quite a while ago. I have a friend who became an exchange student here back in '04 who can't stand anything to do with Japan. Be careful how you work things. This ain't anime-land in this here game. A lot less spastic bowing, for one.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcelExcel Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Well, kira is meant to be more like a street fighter than anything else. She just likes to do so in mini-skirts and heels. I never really thought she was japanese, my take on her and how i tried to create was that she's just extremely wierd with a possible slit personality disorder.

James Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 [font=franklin gothic medium]I'd recommend looking up lists of Chinese names on Google. You're bound to find something you like (there are even great "baby naming" sites for this). This way you can ensure you're choosing an appropriate name, but you'll also have plenty of options as well. I tend to do this myself if I want a character of a particular background and I can't think of a name off the top of my head.[/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 [size=1] My character is based off of the surname and courtesy name of a character from The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Its really not hard at all to find an appropriate name.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcelExcel Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Okay... I hope she's good to go now. Her name is changed.... and she's hitting the ground running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allamorph Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 [FONT=Calibri]I based my character name off of his designed lineage (half-breed) and the fact that Yu is so common a surname that it's almost worthless. Finding it did require a tad bit of research, but then again I did put together that zodiac reference chart extension. Didn't hurt all that much and took up maybe a half hour per.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inuyasha Fandom Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Wow... we're all on Xiu's blacklist.... I think we're all going to have to face Officer Psycho Bitch sooner or later. Xen honestly would respect her for wanting to make the streets a better place. I want to know, however, if he's alone in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allamorph Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 [FONT=Calibri]I imagine several people who might respect her enough to set up a nice assassination, and would then come to the funeral to pay their respects. Such is the way of the world.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inuyasha Fandom Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hm. Interesting. Maybe it's just Xen, but if her went up against her, the worse he would do is beat the everloving shit out of her. He would never kill her, she does too much good, which Xen is incapable of doing. In his eyes, she truely is a good person. Xen could never kill someone like her. Does that make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheResplendent Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 [FONT="Tahoma"]Couldn't help but notice your char's name is still Kira in all of the other sections of the sign up. Cool pic though.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcelExcel Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 oops... changed it. Now she's ready to go and slaughter bad guys. OOOOOOO IDEA! Us as police are supposed to counterbalance you villlians right? Or are we not all villians in the sense of the word? Some of us seem like we'll all be downright evil.... but other seem like they can't help but what they do. Are we the police officers (As us player characters) supposed to stand for true justice and hope within a world already claimed by the darkness of a species that sprints torward its obliviation like an olympic event? Yes, I want to know the answer to this question because I really want to play. I just want to know of some of the ideas the person creating this RPG has, as well as her passions for the different aspects of this RPG. The way I see it, my character stands alone, unable to trust anyone because she is true and pure (in some aspect.. though maybe that thought on her part is just her being an air head) and truely wants nothing more than to make her neibourhood a better place. What I want to know is, for some one like her, what does the creator of all of this expect of her to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 [size=1] I'm pretty sure Raiha is looking for all of the characters to be more than just two-dimensional "bad guys and good guys".[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inuyasha Fandom Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Excel is just being simplistic. I think we're expected to get down and dirty in the criminal underworld, and definitely get our hands dirty with the grunge factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raiha Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 [COLOR="darkorchid"][FONT="Times New Roman"]The following characters hare been accepted, however even if you were, there is no true guarantee your character will survive until the end of this story. Don't feel bad, death is a good thing. Also, if you were not accepted, fits about your lack of inclusion will not be tolerated. You may PM me to ask for an explanation but may not necessarily get the answer you wanted.

Allamorph Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 [FONT=Calibri]I am going to consider my acceptance as 'pending' considering my sheet is as of now incomplete. I am currently having to reconstruct it mostly from memory right now, since my OS has forgotten it exists and anything on my hard disk is inaccessible until I can either reboot with a recovery disc an hour and a half away or find a way to slave it to a functional hard drive and do some file rearranging. It's all very irritating.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
