News Update III



Okay, it's been a really long time since I've done one of these, so it's hopefully gonna be jam-packed with exciting news for old-timers and newcomers alike.

Forum Layout
The main forum look and feel has been the same for some time now, and while it has been a blessing to have borrowed somebody else's hard work, I'm feeling the need for a new skin. If you'd like to put some opinions into this matter (such as color schemes, forum re-organisation etc.), there will be a thread in the Forum Suggestions area fairly soon.

System
There is an AT system being built. Those of you who are aware of this will know that it's been in the pipeline for a while now. Hopefully when it's finished, it can give us a more detailed idea of how your road works and keep a closer eye on people's abilities as a Rider. This will be possible due to the limitations of certain AT parts, and what level rider you are in the Parts War class system. When the System is completed, it will receive a Grand Launch ceremony and there may even be some kind of celebration.

Teams
I feel I should retouch upon a point made in an earlier News Update, as it has become rather outdated - the issue of active Teams. In case you missed it, here is the section I refer to:

Aihara Kanezane wrote:

We currently have four AT-Teams and their corresponding territories; two built and ready to be filled, one built but under reconstruction, and one still in the initial planning stages:

- Sleeping Forest, ATRP's Admin/Mod team, are a collection of Kings and Queens and, although they're currently led by Ice King Hironozuka, are still searching for their Thorn Queen leader.

- The Order, led by your resident leader and Fang King Aihara Kanezane, is open for members. Their home territory, City Hospital, is filled with empty beds. Want to help the Fang King fill them with victims of his wrath? Join them!

- Frozen Mist, led by Ice King Hironozuka, is still in the process of being finalized, although the temporary name of their territory is kinda catchy, ain't it?

- Flame King of the Flame Road, Spit Fire, has his own team and territory! Both currently known as 'Pending' due to an administrative delay, I am assured that both AT-Team and territory will be named shortly!


WOOP WOOP WOOP!


Now, you can understand why this would need updating.

- Sleeping Forest, the archaic AT-Team of Kings and Queens, still only has two active members; Karasu and Aihara. This makes it difficult for SF to be described as a fully-operational team, but there are certain contenders around the site who show potential for improvement to the nth degree. The Trophaeum exists, to a certain extent, within the ether that surrounds the outskirts of Sansai City center, and is only accessible by the four members of Sleeping Forest (two active, two inactive).

- The Order, still marginally active (although RL pressures have recently dampened their Leader's enthusiasm) and keeping the hospital running, has had a few members come and go. Maybe not as many as one would believe, yet more characters than members seem to have passed through the walls. Their Territory, renamed Sansai & Seijitsu General Hospital, is currently undergoing renevations.

- Frozen Mist. Still led by Kazou Hironozuka, who still seems to be inactive. I will attempt to fix this issue over the coming weeks, and if unresolved by a date known only to myself and Hiro, necessary action will be taken and its Territory (Permafrost Palace) may be demolished to make way for a new area.

- The administrative error surrounding the AT-Team known for a while as 'Pending' was hastily fixed, and was re-named Hinote no Kouseki (roughly translated as Wake of Fire). Its territory, Hell's Highway, was never even visited by the Leader of the Team, the Flame King Spit Fire, and as such fell into disrepair and despair. The title of Flame King has now been stripped from the MIA Spit Fire, and is up for grabs, as well as the Territory.

Since the first News Update there have been several new teams started, so I feel I should touch upon these now. After all, no matter how well established the Teams are by now, they're still news.

- Karasu Ra Akatsuki, Sleeping Forest's resident Wind King, started his own AT-Team a while ago now. Dead Air has four members (including their Leader) and appears to be the most active team of the moment. The place they claimed as their Territory, Wastes of the Sky, sits on a busy roadside in quaint Seijitsu City and is the city's only skyscraper. Surrounded by a building site, Heaven's Pillar is the perfect training ground for many Storm Riders.

- Invidia began life as a means to an end for ex-Fang King Kommiku Hachigen. He originally created the Team as a way to fight to regain his Regalia from the Rider who won it from him, current Fang King and Leader of the Order, Aihara. But since its conception in a Prefab Office on the Western Road, Invidia has attracted a darker purpose, one filled with danger and drama. Nothing that Hachigen can't handle, but maybe his prospective members should thoroughly consider the chances of survival.

- Tool Toul Too, more popularly known as T3, has its own Leader. The old leader, who enjoyed taking long sabbaticals in the sun, somehow either lost or gave away his rights to the Pledge Regalia some time ago. So when the new Pledge King Danny Graverock arrived on the Factory Floor, shock emanated through the surrounding Kings and Queens. The shock soon gave way to delight, though, as he seemed more than apt for the job, and soon set about fixing the mess that the old Leader had left for him.

Characters
I'm just about done here, but there are two last items I have left to touch upon; one is an item I feel quite apprehensive about broaching, if I'm honest, but it's one that I feel needs clearing up before it spirals out of control. I am, of course, talking about the issue of Multiple Characters, or to put it differently, deciding halfway through RPing that you don't like the character you made. Now, I know most of you are innocent in this. There are only a select few who have done the latter. To be truthful, even I thunk I'm blowing this out of proportion a little, but I do not want everyone who joins this site to think that they can do the same - half-arsedly create a character they might not even want in a couple of month's time. As for the former description of events, here is my Official Standing on the issue: I DO NOT LIKE THE IDEA OF MULTIPLE CHARACTERS. I think it's far too confusing while RPing, and it's completely unnecessary if you put some real thought into your initial character's creation. If you make your first character exactly what you want, then why would you need a second character? Just to make it clear, my official standing is;

- No Multiple Characters. Players can have one character, and if they give enough thought into the creation of said character, then you won't need a second one.

- If you do the above correctly, and give your character creation enough thought and consideration, you won't decided two months into RPing that you don't like the character you made, and will therefore not have to try to kill off your initial character.

Anyway, down-ness for one News Update. The last item to consider is this:

Love
The King loves you all. Which King, though?
