The Last Daughter of Krypton OOC

[Abraxas Winterlight]

I know some D&D players that do something similar.

Find a mini they like first then build the character around it.

Okay, Ahren, I just listened to that song.

That was pretty bad-ass and I nominate it for our progressive-metal power-ballad opening credits montage.

Here's another, maybe you can guess what it's about

It's a little less specific than the previous song though.

I have this habit of finding an image first and then coming up with some sort of rough idea based on her looks.

Some of my favorite characters of yours have been like that.

Remember that old DBZ thread? The dark-haired girl with the tattoos and the cigarette? Loved her.

Agh, the video description gave it away.

Still, sweet! \m/

While we're on the subject of "Firefly."

Here's the Firefly-Serenity Chinese Pinyinary, a site which translates, phrase-by-phrase, every bit of Chinese from The 'Verse into Pinyin, a browser-friendly way to represent Mandarin in English characters: http://fireflychinese.kevinsullivansite.net/index.html (The Mandarin translator from the show actually helped with some of the translations, which is awesome.)

And here's another site, an almost dictionary-length list of words in English coupled with their translations into Pinyin. Perfect for cutting and pasting when you want to wedge a little Chinese into your dialogue.

These have been invaluable to me.

That's another thread I've always wanted to pick up again. I've always ALWAYS loved DBZ ^_^

 

[AmenRa]

I really liked the movie and tv show.

But, I'm not sure I know enough about everything to write about it.

Hmmm. Maybe?

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

All you really need to know is the following:

1) There story will take place in a relatively small portion of a galaxy.
2) There isn't 'faster-than-light' travel.
3) Big bad = "Alliance"
4) Good guys = Drifters and cargo thieves fighting for the rights of the poor.

Okay, there's actually a lot more to it than that.

But not a bad bare bones synopsis.......

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

I'm getting pretty good at that.

[ChasNicollette]

I TOTALLY KNOW THE SPOT IN ROALD DAHL PLASS WHERE THAT'S SUPPOSED TO GO!

heeheehee

 

[ChasNicollette]

But not a bad bare bones synopsis.......

Agreed.

It's a thing a mite complex, and you done run it down.

I dearly adored that thread, and I really enjoyed that Namekian hybrid character I played!

This thread is never that hot without you.

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can.

It's certainly a double-edged sword.

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

It has the opportunity to be extraordinary, but he could also do some changes that'd make me go ARGH! (I.e. Elves at Helms Deep, anyone?)

*God,* I love these guys.

If they screw up Beorn, I'm walking out of the theater.

(Okay, probably not, but still.)

 

[ChasNicollette]

It's certainly a double-edged sword.

...a double-edged Sting, you might say.

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

They'll screw up Beorn and create a love affair between Elrond, Galadriel and Gandalf.
