So, while I'm on the road and currently unable to actually RP with everyone, I wanna open up myself to another writing project so I can still contribute to the group.
For anyone who is interested in this, I'm willing to design dreams for Mirror – for anyone who doesn't know Mirror, he's a Bard that likes to mess with people's dreams – to hand out. Just reply to this thread with the character's name and whether you want a good, bad, or indifferent dream with a serious, comedic, or other theme. When I get to your turn, I'll PM you for any additional information that I may need.
"How hard did you hit him?" "Quite hard, actually. For some reason he irritated me." They stared back to where the Grolim lay. "You're getting to be more like Belgarath every day," Silk told him. "You do more damage out of simple irritation than most men can do in a towering rage."
Me me me!! Um let's see… I guess a love triangle with me mirror and kiri is out of question so… *dodges a passing by chakram* I think I'll go for the dramatic dream, perhaps something connected to Kenjii's trauma (his mother's death, the details are in his profile section) or something about his past anyway. Something that could help him convince himself about his real feelings for Avi would be good too since I had almost no chance to develop on that side lately. Or if you have better ideas, anything that could help the other characters to understand Kenjii more and not just see him as a moronic jerk works to me! I'm curious to see what it feels like to be under the spotlight!

To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.

Me please! I'd like to have something where Sobe talks with her family (Father, Mother and Sae), which starts out as a good dream and steadily becomes a nightmare. Or something like that. Feel free to be creative, and ask any questions if you have them!
The good part could be anything, them acting like a family doing a family activity and recognizing Sobe as her own person and separate from Sae.
The bad part could be, her family dying in front of Sobe and her being unable to help, or anything like that. That's totally up to you.
Mwhahahahaaaaaa… Oh, Kenjii, you've no idea what sort of can of worms you might have just opened yourself up to…
On a possibly related note, though… ICly, how good of a cook is Kenjii?

Sae, I think I'm leaning towards a birthday party for Sobe. However, yours is gonna be tricky all around because of some of the rules I have for Mirror's dreams, so please be patient with me; it might be quite some time before yours is done, and yours is probably going to be a little on the short side.

yay double service! as for kenjii's cooking skills, he never really tried, though he's a fine judge of sushi dishes <.< and I'm afraid to ask why do you want to know?

Avina is also a character who I'd like to have some dreams of! :) She probably could go for any and all variety of themes… as she began as a Dark Knight, and given that she is currently ready to snap someone in two after the result of last night's RP, a dark/almost sinister dream could work. However she also is very comedic and kinda clueless…
There's also storyline with Avina and her mother which is relatively unexplored. Would probably ultimatley be a sad one. Generally her childhood or late teens could be interesting. Part of why she sorta suffers from low self-esteem has a lot to do with her background which I haven't really found a way to do much with.

That's what he said.
