Well while we wait for things to get started, lets chat about RP stuff

So like the title says lets talk about RP stuff!

So do you guys think that roving coalitions like the incas mob would be formed at some point? i mean a large group male meerkats isn't really considered a mob without a proper dominant female but i'm sure it would have some kind of dominant male to lead the group around til they join up with another mob or form a new one with a group of females.

Also can males actually make lead calls and such? i mean this question probably sound stupid since adult meerkats can still make begging calls even as adults but they wont be answered unless under special circumstances (I.E The Aztecs brought Zaphod food when he begged prior to him dying due to old age i would link it but it wouldn't let me post it for now ).

Would it be possible for a male meerkat to cause a group split by letting out lead calls and such? i mean females can definitely do it sure but have we had a case of a male meerkat causing it instead? i know DW is trying for a more realistic approach but it wouldn't hurt to change things up a little. Plus didn't the Starky mob only had a dominant male for a while prior to Kinkaju taking up dominance?


And i realized some of these may or may not be RP related but whatever.

I don't really think that we need an 'official' group of rovers... in my experience they've never really done well, so it would be best if any roving groups are occasional and coordinated between members.

Also the rest of that should be fine... though I'm not sure about males making splits and things. Usually it's the DF that does most of the leading. In the Starsky's case it makes sense, but if it's in moderation, it should be fine. Kinda depends on the dominant couple though... Lucille in particular wouldn't appreciate it. xD

Haha yea Lucille probably wont like her mate trying to be a dominant male and female at the same time.

Also i read your character, Cyan Serpent's bio in the archive and i really like her and i find it quite interesting that the Shadow Deaths are a more male oriented mob and got a few ideas out of it too.

This is going by if Joestar becomes the DM by the way. I got a idea that perhaps he could try to convince Lucille to train the future generation to be strong warriors at a very young age just like what the Serpents did, so they could have a better chance against the Fiddle Nips and Puzzles since they have more meerkats than the Nightingale does.

Even if he doesn't become DM i can always think of another way for this idea to work out somehow.

...HAHAHA so you've discovered my evil creation? I totally was not expected that LOL

Now's a good time to reveal that Lucille is actually just a tamer version of Cyan with a different backstory, lol

Well the thing with the Marbles and the Serpents, was basically they had these children soldiers. And they mostly were driven to that point just because they had an intense rivalry with each other. So I'm not sure how Lucille would take to that idea, to be honest. I'd have to see how she plays out and I'm trying to be a little more realistic this round, but I don't see why she wouldn't mind teaching them how to defend themselves, you know? We'll see what happens~

I got really bored and decided to read old posts and stuff .

Well i'm gonna say, Joestar has quite a way with words. Joestar would want the Nightingales to be one of the most successful and feared mobs in the area (In which if they grow big enough perhapss they could have a splinter group that becomes The Serpents/Shadow Deaths or any evil mob ever 2.0 but i'm probably thinking waay ahead here).

So i guess we're just waiting for this Shadow fellow then? what's his/her forum username if he/she has one?

EMBERRIA.

Also, would Joestar consider pups had by subordinates to be trained? I don't plan for my character to have any (she's against reproduction responsibility) but I am curious about the training thing. I could see her brain being utilized. ~

It mostly depends if he sees the pups being worth his time though he might kill runts or sickly pups behind the mother's and Lucille's backs as he thinks if the Nightingales were to become one of the top mobs in the area then weak pups must be eliminated but it doesn't there wont be exceptions.

Interesting.

Would he try to keep his nose out of other mob's buisness or frequently cause battles? (Or with the other DMs) ?

Yeah well, the Nightingales aren't evil. They just have rougher methods.

Also Shadow has never been on DW before now, but she's a good friend of mine, I trust her.

Her bio is supposed to be up today right? I hope I get time to read it, I have a busy day ahead.

Well i feel that's up to Lucille, he wont be the type to go on solo missions across enemy borders if he manages to hold up the position of DM, he'd mostly be around keeping rovers away and keeping the mob in check and especially keep an eye on unrelated subordinate males.

Woah my posts had a lot typos o_O well just to clear things up Jaestar isn't completely evil or anything and he wont be pushing 3 week old pups to their very limits when training them, actually he wont train them until a week after they first go foraging because that's when they would know basic stuff such as digging up insects etc.

Don't worry about typos, I mean it's something to always look to catch but when I first joined here (I was 10) can you imagine how many I had? Lol

That's what a realistic DM would do, I agree with you there. I really like all the thought you've put behind him, btw. ~

Yea my writing was atrocious back in 2012 *Shudders*

Yea Joestar can act like a rougher and a more easily annoyed version of Zaphod but can also act like Makuta the 2nd.

Speaking of which i'd love to see your other character Makuta recreated for this newer version of DW Pancake .

Makuta is actually on another RP site with his Shadow Deaths at the moment, but he filtered in on DW a few times before. Usually when a DM was needed. (I.e. Midnights)

She's HOPING today. Shadow has a life too ^^' Besides, she's one of those people who puts a lot of thought into her characters... it'll be worth it.

Joestar sounds good too though.

...NO Moonbacon.
We do NOT want Makuta the second.
TRUST ME WE DON'T. XDDD

He kills his own pups and stuff.

Well Joestar would be far from actually being like Makuta since he's more logical and thinks about what consequence his actions would bring, er well most of the time.

Also now i feel i'm gonna lose to Shadow in the "who becomes Lucille's mate" race or challenge.

But that's ok i guess, more drama for the future .

Makuta is very logical... but Joester is nothing like him an never will be, don't worry xDD

Oh, don't say that. It's anyone's game ;D

Now i want to see him on DW now he seems like such a interesting character.

Well, he was once... I suppose. xD And he's definitely one of my most developed characters ever, so yeah, he is interesting in his own way. But he's not very realistic and tended to be... eh...

Well you could try to recreate him to fit more in the new DW

Nah, I couldn't possibly.  I've had him too long to do that and I have enough characters as it is.  (nearly 75 on Linklu, 10 in EBC, 8 or something in RotF, 1 in BZP...)

We had a lot of the "legacy" characters before, so we could make new ones now.

So i'm thinking of making one or two lone females one of them named Little Pipsqueak is a small but courageous 2 year old female whilst possibly the other one her littermate or younger sister Rosie who is a few inches bigger than LittlePip.

I'm thinking that one or both of them could join a rover to form a little team but since Joestar might become DM which means i wont be able to play another dominant meerkat and its too early to make another mob :/

I wouldn't be thinking of creating new mobs just yet. You could have them be a story group?

I think i wont make them til much later honestly. I plan them to be someone's kids.
