Puppet Characters

[KiddoFreak]

Puppet characters are free for all players to use. Though, they must follow strict guidelines to do so. This list may change as the art of puppeteering is perfected, so check back every once in a while. Hereafter, the first poster of a puppet will be referred to as the "Creator", and the users "Puppeteers". If you have any questions, post them here and I will try to answer them. This thread is to post and discuss puppets, nothing else. Remember that these characters are meant to be puppet mastered. On to the guidelines!
Rough Guidelines:
Creation:
- First and foremost, the creators of the puppets must develop a personality, background, appearance, and purpose for the puppet.
> Personality is very important, no matter what, a puppet's personality will not change. Even if they have a split personality.
> Background needs to stay consistant all the time. This should be quite detailed.
> Appearance is big in puppets, because each puppeteer must keep it the same throughout a role play.
> Purpose is optional, though most characters will have a set purpose in mind, even if they don't say, or even know it.
- Next, the creator should say what, if any, variables the puppet may have.
> Weapons are a good variable. Does the person use only swords? Can they wield daggers? What do they have problems with?
> If the puppet needs to have something happen to it, this event should be recorded.
- Post this information in some kind of format in this thread.
ex:
Role Play: Muffinland
Puppet name: Blueberry
Appearance: Round and blue-ish purple.
Personality: Chronicly depressed and tasty.
So on and so forth. Creators should use more detail than this in reality, though.

Puppeteering:
- Always follow the guidelines set by the creator. Never do something out of character with them.
- Don't change what someone else has done, just to let something you wanted to do happen. This is for everyone.
- If ever there is a dispute on what event the puppet should take, refer to the creator.

Like I said, these are likely to change once this becomes more commonplace. I wouldn't recommend making more than one active puppet at a time, as this would get confusing after a while.

Role Play: Lands of Yrimmuas
Name: Kearn Vaste
Appearance: About 5' 10", Kearn is not the tallest of fighters.He wears black and white clothes that resemble those of a medieval jester, colors changing halfway across each article of clothing. His hair is brown and shoulder length, though it is farily unkept, giving it a strange air, both literally and metaphoricly. His eyes are a shallow -yet intense- light blue, they seem to stare through rather than at everything. Black, white, and gold runes adorn his clothes and shine when they are in use. Strapped to his sides are two, four foot-bladed swords, which are almost always kept inside of dual black sheaths. The hilts are made of strong wood, wrapped in a strange animal hide. There are runes painted on these as well. The blades shine silver in strong light, but also seem to be faintly black and white when in dim light. His shoes are made of the same hide that the hilts of the swords are wrapped in, though there is still white fur on the inside of those.
Personality: Generally, Kearn is a little serious. Almost too dedicated when he has a cause to see the consequences of his actions. He is a little brash, and often acts without thinking. He has little respect for authority, unless that authority has proven itself in his eyes. Normally this is only done through showing efficiency, but one can also prove itself through showing honesty. Although quick to a fight, Kearn likes showing off, which is more often than not his downfall in combat.
Background: Kearn looks about 14, but may be a little older or younger. It is hard to tell, as he was found as a child left alone with not idea who he was. Found by an underground society of anti-god enchanters, Kearn was raised with a strong knowledge of enchanting. His adopted family was a leading power in the society, one of the only authorities he respected. The group always taught the children to believe in their own strength, and not the strength of gods, as no one could take that away. Curious about the gods, Kearn would go on little journeys to learn more about the world around him. Slowly, he began to believe that what the enchanters said was true. With this, he spent years building his swords: Endearment and Repulsion, and then enchanting his clothes with magic that would eventually develop into his fighting style. The runes fight for Kearn, though he had to program them, so his own style is perfected through them. This style is just like him: showy, yet efficient. Often, he ends up just as tired as his oppenent after a fight. Along with fighting, the runes give his clothes properties of armor, and keep his weapons attached to him at all times. They may only be held by himself, or any he chooses worthy. Eventually, he learned of the gods' power source. Each of them had to work their power through hidden citidels that very few people knew of. Kearn believes that even some of the priests don't know of it. Without thinking it through, Kearn ran out of the society one day, and destroyed a citidel near to it. This was the cause of the weakened states of the gods, though none but themselves and Kearn know of this, or so he hopes.
Purpose: Kearn hopes to gather a group of able adventurers together to help him seek and destroy the remaining three citidels, and inspire personal strength throughout the land of Yrimmuas.
Other: He only uses his swords as weapons, nothing else. Since his clothes, and weapons, are enchanted to him, he never changes outfits.
