Wow, JRC's brought in more people to Blackstar than vice versa.
Pika, Kazumaru, and you, I think.
But, anyway.
Welcome to Blackstar, where everyone and their mom goes to.

LIOFIN!
Embri squeals and tackles her friend with a huge grin.
"Wheeeee! We're going to have so much fun! Just you wait! Hey, I'll give you the newbie rundown. Ahem.
Don't annoy Au'Marui, aka The Sensei, aka DarkPsycho, lest he wield the blade of Sanity against thee!
Erm... what else... well, if you have questions/problems, come bug a Mod for general stuff, or one of the Admins, if it's a board related problem.
Pretty much everyone here is very friendly and helpful, at least OOC. Hm. *thinks* Stay away from Little Sister and the Wall Slime, especially if you have any special powers. LS likes to eat people to take their abilities. The Wall slime is carnivorous, and it runs. Fast.
The scent of Pocky/Cookies usually attracts the ravenous attention of Au'Marui or Addman, respectively. It's known to rain random objects at a moment's notice in Psychotopia.
That's about it... try not to blow up the universe!
(Fort and Net already have that job down pat.)" _________________

*Trace walks into the room seeing another new creature at black star.*
Trace: Hello Liofin, welcome to the dojo. Were its almost impossible to get out. Greetings Embri, I calmed down abit. Here, have a Cornelius flesh blood cake. *Puts the cake infront of Embri.*
Trace: I have great powers, so why doesn't LS try to eat me for my powers. But only to kill me. _________________

Ah welcome Liofin. If you wish to RP here then make sure to post your character's profile and that you make sure that the fighter isn't extremely strong because nobody likes a powerplayer. _________________

Embri looks at the cake with disgust. "I only eat charred meat. No thank you... that looks quite gross. Cakes are supposed to have nice things in them, like chocolate or fruit. And if LS doesn't want to eat you, consider yourself lucky. Or at least beneath her notice."
"Mag, yet again I find myself having to correct you." Embri sighs softly. "Having an extremely strong character is not the same as Powerplaying. Extremely strong characters are fine, if they are balanced out by weaknesses. Take Embri as an example. In her Nexus form, she's likely as powerful as Au'Marui, though in a different way. She has then entire magical potential of the world at her beck and call. Now why does Embri remain a viable character to play? Because she's balanced. Yes, she has some phenomenal powers, but any idiot with a bucket of water or a trebuchet with a boulder can seriously harm her, and she is unlikely to ever whip out those Nexus powers for anything less than saving the world, because they destroy her "self" and sanity.
As a creature of fire, it doesn't take a genius to spot her natural weaknesses. No one wants to play with someone they have no chance of affecting. That's what Powerplaying is, in part. Being untouchable, unbreakable, ompipotent. Even the Sensei has his soft spots (Pocky, being frozen solid, and Embri's head come to mind.) The other part of Powerplaying is taking control of other people's characters. This means putting others in inescapable situations or deciding what happens to characters run by others without permission.
Another part of Powerplaying is poor etiquette and manners. For example, deliberately ignoring other people's posts or "magically" coming up with exactly the right item/abiliy you need for any situation (i.e. not being true to your character description). Note that these things are not the same as missing a description and going back to correct your posts (Goodness knows I have to do that often enough! ). Everyone makes mistakes, you learn, fix it if you can, and move on. Similarly, you don't have to have a static character - it's encouraged and expected you will change, grow and evolve over time, but just suddenly gaining the perfect counter to you latest opponent isn't acceptable - it ruins the fun for everyone, and deprives the powerplayer of an opportunity to be creative and find a novel solution while being true to themselves. _________________

for example,take Banshee & Alexis.Two heads on one body.Advantage and dissavantage at the same time,they may have two heads but that meens they can be hit easier,and they need more energy to keep the pair going.
I can't wait to see what you can think up,as everybodys got their own ideas that we all love roleplaying with...even if some of them can be kinda scary...

((Liofin, I'm using Trace. Trot, is Natu' nickname.))
Trace: I got a few ways. 1: DP warp portal. 2: My warp portal, 90% of the time it goes to addman's stomach, 1% goes to DP stomach, 1% to where you want to go, 7% in a random place. There is a few more but you have to find out. _________________
