I've always wondered how you made them
I make them with the secret of pimpness...
Damn your pimpability
Hi ALL,
Would love to join. None of the current Avatars fit the bill. Any new ones coming?
i'm sure navarro would be able to spawn some new ones. welcome and have fun!
O I will. There's nothing like crushing Rome's EnemiesQuote:

Hey Decimus, welcome!
Oh good you made it Decimus. After I read your PM answer and then you didn't show up for a couple of hours I got worried...and went to bed:beam:
Ave!
The sons of Quiritus welcome you :)
Welcome D. :2thumbsup:
The Avatars haven't been updated recently, anything major happen to the ones that are shown. (wouldn't want to pick a dead guy)
Nothing happens to them except gain attributes as time goes by. They sit and rot until someone wants to play them. I'm not at home or else I would spawn you some now.Quote:

I think we (or the CoF) should all post the latest RGBs in a new post rather than at the start of the topic, because I doubt people read the first page but rather they read the last page.
currently I only got two, there are 2 more available but they've been sitting around for a while and starting to rot.
decimus cornelius scapula:

Aulus atilius serranus:
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...ingaz/rgb2.jpg
I'll take him. I would like to start in RomaQuote:

@ desert, don't worry, there are still a few more unspawned RGBs
Hmmm...though my character was adopted into Cicero's family. Distant cousins, perhaps?
he was originally your brother, but got himself adopted into cicero's family :)
something like that
yes and both of you would be part of Blasio's heritage (family name). The Cornelivs there hehe.Quote:

We'll see if this becomes an issue IC
how did that happen? :inquisitive:Quote:

I suppose we could say something along the lines of Scapula being shunned by his family for whatever reason...Cicero has no son except for Scapula so as the sole heir it's looking like Scapula would want to stay in his new family. I dunno.
They are not relatives to Blasio, though being cornelius'ses.
For example:
Publius Cornelius Sulla
Lucius Cornelius Sulla
These are most likely brothers
Publius Cornelius Sulla
Lucius Cornelius Cinna
These 2 are not related
But because iskanders & decimus characters are both Cornelius Skapula's they're most likely brothers.
Families somethings gave their sons to other families to adopt for money etc.
For example
Publius Cornelius Sulla has 2 sons:
-Lucius Cornelius Sulla and Decimus Cornelius Culla.
But the family is not so rich. And MUCH money was a necessity if you wanted to reach a decent office.
So, what does Publius Cornelius Sulla the father does?
To secure his oldest son has all the possibilities to reach the consul seat one day, he gives up his younger son for adoption.
The other party has their own reasons for paying to adopt someone, for example Manius Claudius Cicero is a rich family and probably has no sons of his own. Therefor he pays a lot of money to adpot someone else's son. This boy then becomes a cicero, continuing the name and line. (only, in the EB system, being adopted doesn't change your name to your adopted father as it should be, which is why it can seem weird)
another four guys for desert/anyone new to chose from.
Appius Claudius Nero:
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...ingaz/0107.jpg
Tiberius Aurelius Cotta:
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...ingaz/0105.jpg
Cnaeus Sempronius Cracchus
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...ingaz/0104.jpg
Lucius Curius Denatus
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...ingaz/0103.jpg
wuoh, family from dentatus :) with good traits! :D
I even see a family member of bean there :D
Hmm, he would have to be a cousin or brother wouldn't he?
I don't know how old your avatar is Bean.
Depending on the age difference, I'd RP him either as a younger brother, or the elder son of a fictive brother of yours :)
Cotta's 30, or maybe 31 by now
Yeah, younger than Avlvs actually. Boah.
Since the difference is 7-8 years, he might be your younger brother :)
Actually I'm Cornelius Skapula, he's Cornelius Sulla. So no relation?Quote:

I choose the first guy with the generic name. Appius Claudius Nero, yes...
I'll update my SOT and all that. I'll make a story and an entrance tomorrow.
Hehehe, epic traits...:yes:
Desert, I love your quote.
Which one? :laugh4:Quote:

Maybe a little like the pixies...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfFp9eFzhok
What do you think?
Haha the breakfast one!
Have you ever watched Dexter's Laboratory?
*slaps head*
I forgot something:
Appius Claudius Nero is already il_duce's character. although il_duce has not logged in for more than 7 weeks already. his avatar was left sitting around in a fort so long that I forgot that it's controlled by him.
so I'm not sure whether is he classified as inactive, and to be removed from the game (needs clarification with navarro); and if not I'll spawn a few more RGBs for desert to chose from.
he is open, IL_duce is removed from the game i just forgot to update.
On that note, YouHaveReceived and Mjolnir have also not logged in for some time. Do they qualify?
YouHaveReceieved was removed last Congressional council. Mjonir still has a bit of time in my book.
Hey all, I have read through the FAQ and the rules and seem to get what the game is about as I have played online RP's before. So are there any young (under 19/20) or family member characters avalible. If not do you spawn some new ones or...?
Welcome. Well, look at the first post of this thread, there is one young guy, but he's quite a dull fellow ^^
Hmm, he looks promising. I'll take a look at him in-game once I have installed EB 1.1 again, before deciding to choose him.
IDK exactly how long it is since this post was updated, maybe he's over 20 by now
OK, if so is there anyway to get any new characters?
Im leaving right now and wont be back till 2morrow, everyone will ready some new characters for you which will be available 2morrow, I look forward to your joining.
That's great, hopefully that will coincide with my completed 1.1 download.
hiya, welcome!
Always fun to see new players.
Welcome! Have fun!
Hello!
Welcome.
ah, here are the three guys. their current location is somewhere in Umbria
Appius Aemilius Lepidus
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...iuslepidus.jpg
Appius Sempronius Cracchus
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...uscracchus.jpg
Aulus Octavius
https://i246.photobucket.com/albums/...usoctavius.jpg
Appivs Aemilivs of course is Sharp/Charismatic/Vigorous, like all Aemilii, yeaaah :2thumbsup: :2thumbsup:
actually, i'm uncharismatic...
BUT THAT'S NO SUPRISE TO ANYONE I GUESS :P
... but also selfish and disloyal, something the Aemilii aren't too unfamiliar with either. ~;)Quote:

I was trying to imply (as a joke, of course) that you were doing it, what with our constant debating in the Curia. Gah! :shame:
I know, but obviously I dont' agree, so I had to ask WHO, since it's certainly not me :laugh4: :laugh4:
I've never understood how you can be Dull and Charastmatic. Can you really make rousing speeches and turn many peoples heads droning on in a boring voice about why daisies are yellow inside?
Uhm, "droning on in a boring voice" is what would characterize an uncharismatic speaker. ~;)Quote:

*eek* touchy subject...even if she can see Russia from her house...(ok now you guys can make one free Obama joke)
Obama? That rhymes with llama! LOL PWND
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
My point exactly...surely if your dull, it means your boring and uninteresting.Quote:

Also, imagine someone who makes good speeches and has a powerful voice, and all that, but is called a "fool" and can't make logical connections and doesn't...well, he's either mentally retarded or just a dumbass.
Dull is more boring. Thick would be stupid.
CoughTCMcough :beam:Quote:

As desert points out, "dull" here means unintelligent. It is, after all, countered by "sharp", and not "interesting", and we have a separate charisma attribute. ~;pQuote:

I hate this crap. :brood:
Whats it on?
Word definitions, math, logic, reading comprehension, English reading comprehension as well as the reading of diagrams, tables and maps. Not to mention I have another test on Tuesday about the human anatomy.
I'm doomed. (And I'm really going to bed now. Next time I come here, I'll be a changed man. :sweatdrop:)
Sounds a bit of a random test..is this for the army?
Actually you should stay... where else you could combine practicing english and having fun?
The map readings a bit low here though...
Can you recruit an avatar that doesnt have poor tactician or flagging for me? lol
Ill see what i can do...ALSO go to the library and see the players who have there names as ??? they are more experienced avatars if you would like. Plus you will be just in time for our next council in 2 turns.Quote:
