[QUOTE=RearAdmiral;41687682] also hardcore roleplay[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iCv9Pg5.png[/IMG]
[QUOTE=cdr248;41690640]I wouldn't want to be seen doing in-character acting/rp stuff in front of other people, it just seems a bit awkward to me.[/QUOTE] Make a comedy relief character until you figure out how much they role-play.
I've been playing for 8 months, and I'm still not really any good at role-playing. I tend to play the guy that doesn't say much. Nobody pays too much attention to me during RP sections, but once we get into combat I'm everybody's best friend. On numerous occasions I've taken bullets for people (from bolt guns in 40k no less).
so AdEva was great gettin' icecram for my kids and shit yo

[QUOTE=DmGod;41696583]Haha expecting things to stay great and good like that. Had 14th session of AdEva last week.Shits cray cray yo.[/QUOTE] That's sick! This was our second session, I had to leave early the first but from what I heard the kids got pretty beat up and the Angel ended up exploding and wiping out quite a bit of the buildings in north-east boston. the first thing I say when I see them is "Fantastic Work!" and the Vice Commander did -not- like that then at the end the kid who's super like "yes sir no sir permission to speak sir" kind of thing dropped his ice-cream on the command deck and Vice Commander Verma walked in at roughly the same time

Icecream Joe is now a fully fledged NPC in the AdEva campaign I'm GMing. He runs the Icecream shop in the food court of NERV's Boston Base. He even managed to serve some icecream to our Neospartan, [i]he's just that good.[/i]

I can't remember what Hats had, but I don't think it was too eccentric either.
the classic: a chocolate/vanilla twist. are we really discussing the intricacies of our icecream orders
did nobody get cookies and cream? shame
[QUOTE=Newbienice99;41699027]did nobody get cookies and cream? shame[/QUOTE] Two of the pilots had experienced mental trauma from a direct mental link with the Angel, two had taken critical damage meaning that they were suffering from some of the most horrific pain they'd ever suffered in their entire lives, and they'd destroyed most of Inner Boston, along with a Tank Battalion that was on the Charlestown Bridge acting as support. No cookies until the pilots perform better.
[QUOTE=No Party Hats;41698973]the classic: a chocolate/vanilla twist. are we really discussing the intricacies of our icecream orders[/QUOTE] yes
[QUOTE=Newbienice99;41699027]did nobody get cookies and cream? shame[/QUOTE] listen im a nice father figure character, but i know how rewarding works they didn't do NEARLY good enough for C&C
You call these complex ice cream orders? Let me share one I invented while actually working at an ice cream shop. I call it "Death By Chocolate": Waffle cone, large, dipped in chocolate. Chocolate ice cream, with the following toppings in layers (alternating with more ice cream): Thin Mint cookies, crumbled Brownie bits Hard chocolate pieces + chocolate syrup Top with a layer of chocolate dip, then pour on hot fudge, chocolate whipped cream, and chocolate sprinkles. And a cherry on top.
You call it complex. Ice Cream Joe calls it Tuesday.
So my curiousity was piqued, so I'm reading the adEva book This looks really cool, albeit I'd never find a group for it around here, but still interesting I still can't get over how funny the 'unshippable' trait is
[QUOTE=Rents;41697164]The trick to playing characters that don't say much is, when you do say something, make it something important.[/QUOTE] I may not say a whole lot, but in the L5R game I'm basically one of the most famous people in Rokugan at this point. I'm as recognizable as the Shogun, or a Great Clan Daimyo. I even have a bunch of nick names. Yoritomo Kazuma, AKA Horse Killer Kazuma (Because I use a No-Dachi), AKA One-Strike Kazuma (Because I kill everything in one hit), AKA The Mountain the Moves (Feudal Japan, so everybody is like 5'2", and I'm 6'4"), AKA Kazuma the Untouchable (I got challenged to a duel to the death in the middle of the enemy camp, and I won without the guy even touching me) One of the other players was in a blood feud with the Matsu family, (still is) and during one of the largest battles we'd seen up to that point (we were being attacked by the Lion Clan, to which the Matsu family belongs) he was attacked by a Matsu, and he got his ass kicked. He was on the ground with the Matsu standing over him about to finish him, until I roll in like a fuckin' jeep and wreck the guy's shit. We got lucky and I found him right before he died(I rolled heroic opportunity on the battle table). They offered me a choice. To marry into their family, or join the blood feud. Obviously, I told them to suck it. The two of us combined, me and the guy I saved, have killed one of the top Lion Generals and all of his children.

Never been in a campaign that made it past level 1. I was going to do stuff like this for my players, but the campaign died.
