Title: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Gentle Sharptooth on May 07, 2020, 08:32:07 PM
(https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/96082521_137361527879012_8169278773405941760_n.jpg?_nc_cat=104&_nc_sid=110474&efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9&_nc_ohc=o3V1TnnWfAwAX-6RjO-&_nc_ht=scontent-sjc3-1.xx&_nc_tp=14&oh=2b2c124ce2ae0f8626fc58baec47aec2&oe=5EDBEE4E)

I had an idea for an RP that features the Rainbowfaces as the protagonists. They are guardians of the great mysteries, and a sharptooth named Gnosasaur seeks to capture them and make them share the secrets of universe so that he may gorge hinself on their knowledge and rule all.

I was thinking the Gang of Five could be playable, as well as Ruby and Chomper. Pterano, Grandpa Lomgneck, Mr. Threehorn, and etc. 

I want to be Gnosasaur. :D
Proncounced “Knowsasaur” and inspired by greek word for knowledge which is gnosis. Unlike most sharpteeth who are concerned with feeding or territory, Gonsasaur wants to dominate with knowledge, perverting wisdom as a means of puffing himself up.
I envision him as Jafar type from Disney’s original “Aladdin” (animated), Pterano like, and Darth Nihilus in Star Wars (in regards to his thirst for knowledge).


I need to confess I got the idea while playing the Ban Game eith @RainbowFaceProtege and @Little Bro; I was pretending to want to take the secrets of the universe and then I thiught this is fun, what a great RP idea! 

Anyone Interested?

@RainbowFaceProtege
@Little Bro
@Goldenwind

I am still committed to Yellowbellies RP, but this one will be quite different enough to do it too if you all want. :)

Let me know what you think.

Don’t worry I am dedicated to the Yellowbelly RP too. :)

Love this idea!! :Mo You guys know I'm in!! :rainbowwave

I could be the other Rainbow Face, or if someone else wants to use her (since I already stole her in the Yellowbellies RP :p) I might put an OC Rainbow Face in there somewhere. I'm pretty flexible! I'd be happy to take a character from the Gang, too!

You can have the Female Rainbowface, any member of Gang you’d like and if you want to make a character. :)

Awesome! :D Hey, let me know if you guys want to call dibs on any members of the Gang before I choose one of them.

I'm loving the sound of this more and more... :DD I'll be thinking about stuff we maybe could add to this!

I know I am calling dibs on Chomper. He is best sharptooth! :chompysmile Might also pick Spike if it's alright.  :^^spike

 I know you said the Gang of Five could be playable, but how about other chars? Like RedClaw and the fastbiters, the parents of the Great Valley and such?

Chomper is yours!  :chompysmile

Other characters are fine, if anyone wants to be Chomper’s parents, Grandpa Longneck or etc. I myself aim to just be Gnosasaur this time around. :)

I envision in this RP we will be using LBT physics, but then we are going to defy those physics because of the Rainbowfaces and their powers. This is gonna be in the Great Valley, Mysterious Beyond, and Beyond the Mysterious Beyond! We will have dinos in space, but no need for space suites, we will see mysteries and supernatural happenings. Its gonna be quite the ride!

Let me know when each of you are ready:

Wait, what? :rhett_shocked Sorry, I'm not there yet. I think it would be a good idea to get some kind of plan down first. We can't just jump in, start writing random stuff, and expect to create a coherent story. I've tried to do just that with fanfiction before, and it results in the kind of mess that's only desirable in a crack RP (which I'm thinking wasn't what you were intending for this). :p I mean, I only had to spend a few minutes exploring the Role Play board in order to find an RP that exemplifies the amount of discussion necessary before even getting started: Sudden Change of Species 2.0 (https://www.gangoffive.net/index.php?topic=16174.0).

For starters, we need to know what brings the Rainbow Faces back to Earth. I'm definitely open to suggestions, but an idea I had (that I've also been considering for fanfiction) is that certain monuments within the dinosaur world, such as Threehorn Peak and Saurus Rock, didn't occur naturally but were actually built by some mysterious intelligent species. (Possibly other alien species that once visited Earth? Or maybe ancient ancestors of the Rainbow Face species, like they evolved from normal dinosaurs but left the planet once they became advanced enough, leaving the areas they once inhabited to be reclaimed by nature?) I haven't yet thought of what purpose these structures would have actually served, but there could be something about them that attracts meteorites made of some kind of volatile matter--this is why the "Stone of Cold Fire" landed on top of Threehorn Peak in LBT VII. This time, though, a new stone lands on top of Saurus Rock, so the Rainbow Faces have to come investigate. I dunno, let me know what you think or what kind of ideas you guys have.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: Gentle Sharptooth on May 08, 2020, 07:24:06 PM
@RainbowFaceProtege I am glad you want to develop a concerete story! I like a combo of your two ideas, one is that ancestors of Rainbowfaces built the monuments like Saurus Rock before advancing and leaving the planet. I would add that the monuments like Threehorn Peak contain artifacts of the Forerunners (you can help make a name for them) inside them. Gnosasaur (antagonist) has started collecting these relics, and is tampering with technology/relics and that alerts the Rainbowfsces to return because certain objects like Teeth from Saurus Rock csn cause great devastation.

Thoughts?
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: RainbowFaceProtege on May 08, 2020, 07:42:32 PM
I love your ideas, especially since they could explain how Saurus Rock become an object of superstition. "Forerunners" would be a good name for the ancestors, too. :D

@Goldenwind @Little Bro let us know what you guys think about any of this!
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: Goldenwind on May 08, 2020, 07:52:28 PM
They sound very interesting indeed.  :olittlefoot A lot can happen with this RP. The gang messing with alien technology and learning to use some to combat sharpteeth till Gnosasaur is taken care off. Maybe Gnosasuar can have a accomplice like Sierra, a flyer who is searching absolute power. It be also a interesting idea if other aliens get involve too if it's fine (I give thumbs up to random crossovers) XD
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: Gentle Sharptooth on May 08, 2020, 08:01:25 PM
Huzzah! :)

Some Backstory on Gnosasaur:

Gnoasaur’s motivation is that when he was child like Chomper he was told, “Sharpteeth have one purpose to hunt,” but he thirsted to know things. He rubbed up against his peers who said “Sharpteeth are suppose to be savage, and stupid.” But Gnosasaur said “The sharp in sharptooth means bright or smart.” Gnosasaur’s parents hoped his eccentric nature would change when he grew up, but one night he saw a comet in sky and his love for astronomy and mysteries hatched. When Gnosasaur grew older, he left his pack of Concavenators (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concavenator), ans went to Egypt to study under Philos the Velociraptor, who taught him about the Forerunners and spoke of their descendants, the Rainbowfaces. Gnosasaur devoured knowledge like most sharpteeth ate meat, but it came at a price.. the ridiculing words of his parents and peers made him bitter which with gnosis became pride. Soon Gnosasaur began exploring dangerious secrets hidden in the Pteromiads. His master Philos urged him to end his quest for the relics of the Forerunners, but the thirst for knowledge could not be quenched. Gnosasaur would hunt down the artifacts of the Forerunners and divine their secrets at any cost.

More cool ideas! @Gentle Sharptooth I just have one question about Gnosasaur: is he bilingual like Chomper, or does he only speak Sharptooth?

I like this idea, we could show the creation of the best things in the Valley, like the treesweet tree.

Tree sweets as an invasive alien species? Interesting thought. :D

Gnosasaur speaks both Leaf Eater and Sharptooth langauages. His studies in what we call Egypt made him also familiar with Forerunner Runic Language.

Gnosasaur could use a lackey to help him acquire relics and artifacts. ;)

That wasn't the right way for me to make a suggestion. Hey, this RP wasn't even my idea, so it was hardly my place to come in there like, "we're gonna do it this way now!!" :confused Not to mention that maybe I don't even know what I'm talking about--I barely know anything about RPs in the first place, so maybe I'm mistakenly looking at this as if it's a fanfic. In any case, I'll try not to be so bold about my suggestions in the future. (Sorry again!)

I am actually glad you had us slow down so we could work out the story and character archs. It didn’t bother me, I was elated to hash out what is going to happen before we start. :)

But if the IRL and you feel you need to aplogize even if I don’t, all is forgiven. :)

I also want to know if you woukd Co-GM (Moderator) in this RP? It would guve you the experience of running an RP but I would be here to helping co-moderate. :) 

————————

I know we are going to learn some fascinating details about the Rainbowfaces (albeit there will always be mysteries) but is there anything we should know about their backstory you and @Little Bro would like to share? If you want to keep it mostly a mystery, that is totally fine, but I wanted to know if I should just be going off “The Stone of Cold Fire” for reference about them.

——————————

@Goldenwind What kind of Pterosaur would you be? Something like Rinkus or Sierra or Pterano? ;)

Thanks for being so understanding, I'm relieved I didn't rub anyone the wrong way. :)littlefoot And thank you so much for the co-moderating offer, I would love to do that! :^^spike

As for Rainbow Face backstories, I've wanted to explore that in fanfiction for a long time, but I never managed to settle on anything to the point where I could start writing. (Unless you count the crummy story that was my very first attempt at fanfiction, never to see the light of day again.) :lol The one detail I ever decided on for certain in my headcanon was that the Rainbow Faces were siblings, but we don't even have to follow that here. For the sake of all of us going into this RP on the same page, it probably works out pretty well that I haven't gotten around to fully fleshing these guys out yet. Unless @Little Bro (I'm going to be genuinely startled if he's given these characters more thought than I have, haha) or @Goldenwind have any specific backstories in mind for the Rainbow Faces, LBT VII is our reference point.

I have realized that we should probably name these characters, for the ease of not having to type "the male Rainbow Face" or "the female Rainbow Face" all the time, which would probably get old pretty fast. Or if we want to leave them unnamed for mystery's sake, we can at least give them code names (or numbers). Any thoughts/preferences on this?
And of course @Goldenwind if you want us to pause our discussion on this RP for you, too, just say the words and we'll do it! :)petrie

I am glad you accepted Co-Mod. :)

I would definately like a short hand for the Rainbow faces. The easiest would be Rain (for male) and Bow for (female), but I think some more unique names would be better, I leave that to you and Little Bro. ;)

To respond to an earlier post by @Goldenwind, I respectfully would like to rule out a crossovers. For one it would get confusing, and secondly this RP is more about mysteries and quest for truth. I really want to get into Rainbow Face mythos and mysterion that awaits. That doesn’t mean this will be austere and without wise cracks, a la Cera, but the tone is very different, its more discovery oriented. :)

I was thinking about this earlier, and I agree with Gentle. Making this RP into a crossover could get pretty complex and distract from the story we've already set out. But @Goldenwind if you ever want to start a wacky LBT crossover RP separate from this, chances are I'll be in. :lol

Thanks! XD And I am okay with crossovers being ruled out.  :)petrie You all can continue the discussions without me, I can catch myself up. X)

The only ideas I have for the Rainbow Faces is that they like to study life on different worlds and encourage creativity and ideas to help. Espically the male one who likes to break the rules out of conscience.  :rainbowwave I believe they use a space ship piloted by their expedition team or a robot A.I. (Hence why they acted like they were waiting at the end of movie). They use technology that is advanced, but similar to what we have modern day with some future stuff in sci-fi movies.

You could run rain and bow in other langauges:

Rain in Basque is: Euri, which is pretty.

Bow in Albanian is: Hark, like hark the herald angel sings. :)

Just some thoughts. Its up to you. :)

Rain in Latvian is: Lietus
Bow in Latvian is: Loku

Definitely agree with all this! I always pictured them as scientists/explorers of some sort, doing research on other worlds and spreading curiosity and imagination among the people they encountered. And yeah, the female one is much more by-the-book about missions than the male.

Since Goldenwind is currently working on exams, I am fine with waiting until that's finished to continue with the roleplay discussion. Take as much time as you need, Goldenwind! :) It's only the three of us now that Gentle Sharptooth has left, unless anyone else joins in, and there isn't much point in me and Bro discussing this by ourselves. Also, Gentle has made me the new moderator for this RP, as I've mentioned elsewhere, but he's welcome to take back that position if he returns.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: Goldenwind on May 13, 2020, 08:34:36 PM
Done the exams!  :Mo Was wondering if there should be a scene where the gang discovers Modern technology and they all have highjinx while trying to understand it. I honestly always wanted to see a fish out of water sequence like this in TLBT. XD Also... I have a interesting idea for Rinkus if it's okay for him to get involved. Imagine him getting a redemption arc? He starts off with having no direction when he left Sierra after movie 7?
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: RainbowFaceProtege on May 13, 2020, 10:14:23 PM
Congrats! :celebrate Glad to have you back!

I would love to see the Gang react to technology, that would be entertaining for sure. :lol And as for Rinkus, I would be open to including him. Is he going to be that flyer you mentioned earlier, or are they two different characters?

What if we bring back the Stone of Cold Fire, but have it as a decoy spaceship. The RF could have a saucer that they fly around with, and launch the stone so the other dinos don't notice them.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: Goldenwind on May 14, 2020, 10:46:40 AM
I see Sierra as the side-kick villain flyer in this one as I believe he would have gotten feed up with Rinkus after what occured. Plus I believe he would have gotten suspicious of the Rainbow Faces, having seen them leave Threehorn Peak.

Ooo! :olittlefoot Sounds interesting! @Little Bro

@Goldenwind Sounds good, I can picture Sierra and Rinkus ending up on opposite sides for sure. Always had the impression that the partnership between them was mostly based on their goal of obtaining power, with Sierra's aggressive personality threatening to ruin it at any moment.

What if we bring back the Stone of Cold Fire, but have it as a decoy spaceship. The RF could have a saucer that they fly around with, and launch the stone so the other dinos don't notice them.

@Little Bro On one hand, this is a fun idea, but on the other hand, the distraction would make it harder for the Gang to realize what's actually going on. I realize that's the point of a distraction ( :lol) but for RPing purposes, it's probably better if the Gang falls into our main plot early on.

I've realized that before we start, we need someone to replace Gentle Sharptooth as Gnosasaur. Let me know if any of you guys are up for that, I can play him if no one else wants to.

Also, as far as the Gang goes, should this story take place before or after Chomper and Ruby move to the valley?
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP

I agree with getting the gang involved with the main plot early as it was confusing for the Yellowbelly RP to have two RPs happening simultaneously in my opinion. XD

I am willing to take on Gnosasaur, if it's fine with everyone. I doubt I can be like what Gentle intended, so I might throw my own twist on him.

Hmm... Honestly I really like to have Chomper involved since he is a fav of mine, but it's up to what others think here. X)

Oh, wait, I forgot we'd already mentioned Chomper and Ruby would be part of this. :bang Whoops! I was hoping to play Ruby. What if she knew some tales from the Mysterious Beyond involving mysterious "creatures from the sky" she supposes could be the Rainbow Faces?

You're welcome to be Gnosasaur, Goldenwind. Feel free to interpret him how you see fit, I suppose that's all we can do with Gentle no longer being part of this.

Just to keep track of everyone's characters, I'm going to keep a list here (correct me if I list any characters under the wrong person).

RainbowFaceProtege:
-Female Rainbow Face
-Ruby
-Petrie (unless someone else wants him)

Goldenwind:
-Gnosasaur
-Rinkus
-Sierra
-Chomper

Little Bro:
-Male Rainbow Face

I'm hoping to fill up our Gang before we get started (which is why I've added Petrie to my group), and I might pick up someone else if we end up with any Gang characters left over. @Little Bro let us know if you want to play anyone from the Gang--Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, and Spike are open! :DD
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP
Post by: Little Bro on May 17, 2020, 07:54:44 PM
I'll do Littlefoot and Cera. :)littlefoot ;)Cera
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP

Well that leaves Spike and Ducky of the gang. As for my chars, anyone who joins is free to have them if they wish.  :^^spike Wouldn't mind taking Spike if there is no one to take him.

@Gentle Sharptooth Welcome back to the RP! :duckyhappy I believe the only members of the Gang that have been claimed are Cera, Littlefoot, Ruby, and Chomper. I'm pretty sure Ducky, Spike, and Petrie are still available.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP

You claiming Ducky is fine with me, “Yep! Yep! Yep!” :)

Edit: When we start the RP what should we name it?

Suggestions:

a) “Beyond The Mysterious Beyond”
b) The Quest for Telling
c) Rainbowfaces RP
d) Journey of Mystery or The Mysterious Journey
e) The Know Wars (just for fun :lol)
f) The Fire of Knowing
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP

Ooh, I like "Beyond the Mysterious Beyond" and "The Quest for Telling." :DD "Journey of Mystery/The Mysterious Journey" is also really cool, but the overabundance of "Journeys" in the LBT sequel lineup (Journey Through the Mists, Journey to Big Water, Journey of the Brave) has somewhat ruined that word for me. :p

(Haha, "The Know Wars." :lol )
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP

Alright, we're unanimous: The Quest for Telling it is!

By the way, after running "rainbow" and related words through translators, I settled on "Prizma" (Hungarian word for "prism") for my female Rainbow Face's name.

@Gentle Sharptooth thanks for kicking this off! There's just one thing I'm kind of confused about: is that brown pterosaur the assistant we were talking about earlier in our planning? If I'm not mistaken, I think that was going to be Goldenwind's character, and I believe Goldenwind decided it was actually going to be Sierra. Not that you have to change it if I'm right about this, though. Your pterosaur can just be an additional character.

I see Sierra as the side-kick villain flyer in this one as I believe he would have gotten feed up with Rinkus after what occured. Plus I believe he would have gotten suspicious of the Rainbow Faces, having seen them leave Threehorn Peak.

Ooo! :olittlefoot Sounds interesting! @Little Bro

Would you be open to Sierra being witj Gnosasaur in the Pteromaid territory? I can see them working together. :)

That one's up to @Goldenwind  :)

@Gentle Sharptooth I don't know if you've though of any history for the Pteromaid territory, but ideas are popping up in my head now... :DD Maybe it's an abandoned Forerunner base, or maybe Gnosasaur and his accomplices built it with stolen Forerunner technology?

--EDIT--
Also: just wondering, is the blue comet just to set the mood, or will it be landing somewhere? :SmugSpike

Sorry for my onslaught of questions. :lol

@RainbowFaceProtege That sounds great! Fourunner tech that Gnosasaur is manipulating. Pterosaurs venerated the Fourunners and were instructed to build the Pteromaids. :)
I cannot wait to get Petrie involved.

The Blue Comet is up to you and Little Bro, it can be your characters traveling or just a foreshadowing. :)

@Goldenwind I am looking foward to a partnership between Seirra and Gnosasaur. ;)

Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Little Bro on May 19, 2020, 03:09:28 PM
What if we have a leader Rainbow Face that sent other Rainbow Faces on missions? He could be like Foobie (Only not so goofy  :P) and be the Wise One or the Old One. Just an idea I had  :idea.

Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: RainbowFaceProtege on May 19, 2020, 03:44:45 PM
@Goldenwind I'm loving Sierra and Rinkus's parts in this so far! (Poor Rinkus has no one but his tail...I like how you included that little quirk of his.) :lol

@Gentle Sharptooth Thanks for letting me know about Petrie, that should be helpful! :)petrie Also, you ought to post your full Gnosasaur picture in an art thread!

I'm totally open to anybody putting an OC in the space station! I wrote it with Gallimimus in mind (which you probably noticed :p), but I wouldn't object to having additional species in there. Maybe the Forerunners were Gallimimus, making that species the original space dinosaurs, but more recent missions have recruited other Earth dinosaurs for the team. (Maybe that's why the Rainbow Faces were so interested in testing the Great Valley dinosaurs' curiosity/imagination in LBT VII...they were hoping to pick up some possible new recruits.)

What if the term "Rainbow Face" actually referred to all members of the space team? Maybe every dinosaur there, not just Gallimimus, was given those colorful stripes to signify their position on the team, enabling them to tell each other apart from regular dinosaurs when on missions to Earth?


@Little Bro I love the idea of a leader Rainbow Face, their version of an Old/Wise One (as long as this "Wise One" is actually wise). :lol The space force needs a commander!
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Gentle Sharptooth on May 19, 2020, 03:51:52 PM
I love these ideas @RainbowFaceProtege ! I say implement them. :)

I like the idea of different species being recruited. Perhaps the majority are Gallimimus, but there are a few other species. Can I be a Velociraptor on the station? His name would be Ringus or Ring for short. Named after Ring Nebula and rings of Saturn.

I am basing him on Captain Raptor:

(https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/97408444_141279907487174_488880665421414400_n.jpg?_nc_cat=110&_nc_sid=110474&efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9&_nc_ohc=mbNb3ai71UMAX-Audmw&_nc_ht=scontent-sjc3-1.xx&_nc_tp=14&oh=b60a6dec9213f42677a14b004d51874a&oe=5EEA0720)

Sounds good, maybe he's one of those "Rainbow Biters" that showed up towards the end of LBT XI. (Just look at this pic Goldenwind found. (https://www.gangoffive.net/index.php?topic=2862.msg511245#msg511245)) :lol

Should we reply in a sequence or reply at will? Sequence would require we wait tell all reply before posting again:

Gentle

LittleBro

You then would reply after the last person before you.

The other option is to reply at will, that is reply as soon as another member has.

I am glad you liked it @RainbowFaceProtege. I felt there needed to be an explanation for Ring’s zeal to learn about the forerunners, and how it connects to your character Prizma. I like that Ring had to press through adversity, and ironically what the Mysterium considered a dangerious obession was how he rose in the ranks; safeguarding artifacts.

Hmm... With Pterano here, should Rinkus notice him and reveal himself to his old "friend"? @Gentle Sharptooth

Sure, we can work that in, but perhaps Rinkus shadows Pterano and Petrie? Then reveals himself?

You’re call. :)

Hey @Goldenwind I didn’t mean to direct. Go ahead and write what you want about Rinkus meeting Pterano again. :)

I never meant to be Pterano lol It just seemed a good way to develop Petrie more.  :)petrie

Great post @Goldenwind, same to you @RainbowFaceProtege and @Little Bro.

Hey @Little Bro would you be up to Vega being a Watchasaur, part of Ringus’ program? It would allow for more interaction between our characters. Besides you shown Vega likes tech and his eavsdropping is perfect for the program.

It’s up to you ultimately. :)

I'll do it @Gentle Sharptooth . I agree that Ring and Vega should interact more.  :yes
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Gentle Sharptooth on May 27, 2020, 01:23:20 PM
@Little Bro Awesome! Ring will be ringing Vega to join the Watchasaurs for the report on the disturbance of the Second Stone of Cold Fire. :)
In fact, since Ring already said the Watchasaurs are monitoring the situation you coukd if you so desire add that into your next post, if you so wish. A page or alert is being sent to all Watchasaurs.

@Little Bro I have no idea what is happening. This is so sudden. :(petrie Well if he really does leave, I have the best of wishes for him.

If Gentle Sharptooth goes again... I am afraid we might have to cancel both RPs, which pains me to say it. He has been a big part of both and I wouldn't really want to continue without him. :/

EDIT: At this point I feel like we can't continue these RPs without him as I don't think he left any plans for his characters. Fortunately while I can't salvage his stories, I think we can salvage some concepts in another RP, like the originally planned Oopsie RP, if anyone wishes.

I would be open to participating in another RP involving the rainbowfaces if you guys do consider reusing some of these concepts and need additional participants.  Though I do hope that Gentle Sharptooth changes his mind.  This is just so sudden and unexpected.

Welcome Owls and Rhombus!  :Mo

I really like the start of the RP with Ruby talking about the Rainbow Faces as part of a story, so I would like to keep that in. Also liked how the Rainbow Faces had some previous history on Earth.

Whether there should be a villain like last time be up to you guys, because I am inbetween with that idea. Plus, I have no villain ideas at the moment.  :OhYou But I still want to see the gang to be involve in technological shenanigans with space technology.  :PCera

@OwlsCantRead Okay, wait, I was assuming "inb4" was like saying "I'm in"...Google has since shown me otherwise, whoops. Sorry, I'm not what you'd call fluent in the world of internet slang. If I'm now understanding right, it's basically saying you have a hunch about what'll happen next? In that case, you might not be too far off the mark, since I'm about as good at sticking to character names as I am at sticking to fanfiction titles. By the way, just how long have you been lurking around this RP? :lol

@Goldenwind About the villain plot, I suppose an alternative could be the Gang mistakenly causing some sort of issue by stumbling upon Rainbow Face technology. I don't currently have any fantastic villain ideas, either. Of course, though, if anyone else in our group does have some villainous schemes in mind, I'm open to suggestions. :DD

Oh! A staple of the films is that the gang finds a new ally and sometimes they help return him or her home... So what if it's an alien or robot of the Rainbow Faces? Maybe Sierra or Ozzy could get involved?

Some good ideas here! :)littlefoot I can't help wondering how Chomper might be affected by the technology in the first one, sounds intriguing. As for the second one, I do see the similarities to ET, but I don't really feel like we'd be ripping off its plot, since it's not like that plot is particularly unique to ET in the first place.

I welcome your ideas, let's hear more about your character! :^^spike

I don't think we necessarily need to combine two plots, although if there ends up happening to be a good way to mesh them together once we get into this, I'd be open to the idea.

We should figure out who's going to play which members of the Gang. I think I'd like to keep Ruby. Let me know who you guys would like! :DD @rhombus @Goldenwind @Little Bro

Yeah, part of that has been due to work keeping me busy, and the other part is due to confusion concerning the RP.  Before I would pick out any characters I think that we need a plan as to what is going on.  Otherwise I would be going into any RP blind.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Goldenwind on June 09, 2020, 10:25:09 AM
Sounds like a great idea @rhombus . I imagine Littlefoot or someone seeing something land far off of the side of the valley before going to check it out, probably after getting the gang together. Then it can used to introduce whatever plot device that is related to the Rainbow Faces (Maybe my robot dino OC. XD)

My OC will be named Al, it's like A.I. but with a L instead of an I. He is a quirky fellow who wishes to learn about the world around him, as he is a newly designed robot to research worlds while being hidden. However the land procedure went array, resulting in a system error that causes a condition similar to amnesia. Don't worry he isn't gonna be a robot Guido.  :PCera He is adventurous and likes to say hello to everyone he see's, sharptooth or not. I'd imagine the sharpteeth would show disinterest in him because he is a machine, and would use this as a advantage. I think his personality could be a result of the male Rainbow Face wanting him to be a companion and swooped it in while the female Rainbow Face wasn't looking.

@Goldenwind I like this idea, but here's my idea that could connect off of yours.

What if the gang can't tell it's a robot? They think it's a real dino, and then it gets wet and short circuits or something along those lines. I don't know just something I'm throwing out here.  :lol Also, real quick, I think that the robot should accidentally land on Earth. I think the Rainbow Faces would be smarter than to send a robot on Earth.  :PCera

Post by: Goldenwind on June 09, 2020, 01:29:59 PM
That's very interesting! @Little Bro I actually think they would assume that. Espically since they don't know a thing about robots. Though poor Al getting short circuited.  :PCera

And yeah, I think it be too coincidental they chose Earth again. Maybe previous coordinates that were saved to a computer (The ones used for the Stone of Cold Fire) was accidentally used somehow. Resulting in him being sent to the wrong place.

@rhombus Oh, that's fine, I understand you being busy. (I realize I've been absent here for some time now, too.) I just wanted to make sure you were still interested, didn't want you to feel like you had to participate if there was any reason you didn't want to. :)

As for dividing up the characters, I wasn't saying we were ready to start the RP yet. Sorry if I accidentally gave that impression. I just find it easier to come up with RP ideas if I know beforehand which characters I'll be controlling, but maybe that's just me.

@Goldenwind This sounds like a great start! :)littlefoot An additional idea I have: what if Al is losing power, so the Gang has a limited amount of time to get him back to the Rainbow Faces before his battery is completely drained? While the battery charge being completely drained wouldn't make Al "dead," since he could just be charged again, the Gang wouldn't be aware of such a concept. Having had no experience with electronics before, the Gang would view Al as they would any living being, sort of like what @Little Bro said. From what you've said, perhaps even Al himself, due to his amnesia, would think he's a living creature like Littlefoot and his friends, thinking he's "sick" as his low charge causes glitches.

As for the sharptooth idea, I like where you're going with that, I'm just not sure if most sharpteeth would be smart enough to be indifferent to Al right away. (Grandpa Longneck: "It's a good thing sharpteeth aren't very smart..." :lol) However, I can imagine a sharptooth trying to eat Al once, to the Gang's horror, then giving up once it realizes its teeth can't even get through the metal (or whatever indestructable tech Al is made of). ;)

Heh, I like your explanation for Al's personality...I can definitely picture that happening. :lol

That sounds plausible to me! :yes The "Stone of Cold Fire" could have been an unmanned probe of some sort that had been purposefully sent to Earth to measure climate conditions or something like that, so now Al could accidentally be launched under the same coordinates.

I'm not opposed to the idea, but I do think it would be wise to maintain some level of scope at the moment given that we do not have a lot of rpers right now. Too many characters may cause conflicting interests where a single rper can control a lot of characters under their charge and influence what's happening imo.

@OwlsCantRead Oh wait, you actually are playing? Uh...heh...sorry I unintentionally excluded you from our plans so far, I thought you'd just been coming in and out of here now and then to tease us. :oops
Well, now that I have my head on straight, welcome to the RP, Petrie! :)petrie (not surprised in the least that you would choose Petrie)

@Goldenwind Okay, as much as this idea amuses me, I have to second Owls in saying that it would probably be wise to resist introducing extra characters yet. I can imagine someone like Mr. Threehorn making a cameo appearance just for humor at some point, but I don't think we should put that in here so early, or there's a danger that he might unnecessarily shoehorn himself into the rest of the story. For now, let's stick with the Gang of Five and Al (and possibly Rainbow Faces, unless we're going to save their appearance for the ending).

You're welcome to keep Chomper! As for Littlefoot, @Little Bro and I discussed this RP a bit IRL, and he mentioned he might've wanted to keep using him, so I'm gonna ask him to confirm whether Littlefoot is still up for grabs or not.

(Though, seriously, Bro, if you're going to call dibs on a character, you should actually do it in the RP discussion. Just sayin'. :p)

Anyway, I was thinking I'd keep using the female Rainbow Face, but if anyone else was hoping to play her, I can be flexible.

Come to think of it, I don't even know how often the Rainbow Faces are going to come up in this RP yet.

Just had a new idea! In order for the Gang to have a more concrete destination to help Al get to, what if Al picks up a signal from somewhere and feels compelled to follow it? It'll turn out that the signal is coming from a hidden Rainbow Face research base (maybe inside a mountain or underground). What do you guys think?
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Goldenwind on June 10, 2020, 06:35:34 PM
@RainbowFaceProtege I understand. XD I think it be okay to stick with the gang for the moment. I won't mind discussing possible character introductions later on like Pterano (Since they will most likely be in the Mysterious Beyond) for example. I wouldn't mind if the Rainbow Faces appear out of the blue at the end as a suprise reveal like in a actual TLBT movie climax. But... I want to hear what their RPers suggests.

Also that makes a lot of sense and I could see Littlefoot believing in Al's instincts as he and other Longnecks were compelled by unknown forces before during the Great Longneck Migration.

This sounds like a good idea to me. :) From there the gang could be introduced in some way and we can contrive some kind of adventure which leads them to discovering Al.

As for my OC (Taunt) I was mainly thinking of him being used as rarely used comic relief. :p  I could see him having a hilariously failed hunt (hurting his teeth on Al's "hide") and then perhaps arriving a bit later just to point out the "odd rock-hide dinosaur" to his disbelieving pack.

It'll turn out that the signal is coming from a hidden Rainbow Face research base (maybe inside a mountain or underground). What do you guys think?

I like this idea, @RainbowFaceProtege . But, I think it needs to be something a little more mysterious (Pun unintended) like a volcano, or cave with shiny crystals. I would like to hear you guys' opinions.

 :lol :lol

Actually, if you're giving him up, I think I'd like to drop the female Rainbow Face and use him instead. If that works for everyone else, of course. :) Female Rainbow Face is available for anyone.

For sure, it can be as epic as we desire--I never said it had to be a boring mountain or cave. :Mo

As for my OC (Taunt) I was mainly thinking of him being used as rarely used comic relief. :p  I could see him having a hilariously failed hunt (hurting his teeth on Al's "hide") and then perhaps arriving a bit later just to point out the "odd rock-hide dinosaur" to his disbelieving pack.

Sure, by all means, do it. :DD I wouldn't mind Mr. Threehorn or some other character coming up for comic-relief purposes when the time is right, either--sorry if I gave the impression I didn't want him in here at all, that's not what I meant--I'm just trying to make sure we don't introduce too many characters too soon.

@RainbowFaceProtege I understand. XD I think it be okay to stick with the gang for the moment. I won't mind discussing possible character introductions later on like Pterano (Since they will most likely be in the Mysterious Beyond) for example. I wouldn't mind if the Rainbow Faces appear out of the blue at the end as a suprise reveal like in a actual TLBT movie climax. But... I want to hear what their RPers suggests.
Yeah, I'm open to the idea of introducing other characters later on. :)petrie And I don't mind saving the Rainbow Faces for the ending, either, that was basically how I'd been imagining it. I'm still open to other suggestions, though, since the female Rainbow Face currently isn't assigned to anyone, and whoever picks her up might have an idea of their own. :)

I don't mind you having Littlefoot, @Little Bro . I enjoy your protrayal of him.  :chompysmile

I guess if no one else is interested I could try the Female Rainbow Face. It be interesting to act as the male's foil and voice of reason.  :bestsharptooth

Hmm... As for how the gang discovers Al, I might have another idea or two... He could land directly in the valley, attract the attention of everyone, land nearby with the gang prompting to give chase, probably thinking it might be another Stone of Cold Fire, or someone hearing a voice or sound of sorts. Maybe Guido could be the one to discover him as they do share similarities in the fact they appear to be one of a kind with no recollection of their past.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: RainbowFaceProtege on June 13, 2020, 06:37:20 PM
@Goldenwind I'd love to see your take on the female Rainbow Face, go ahead and have her. :^^spike

I think your idea for how the Gang discovers Al sounds great! Maybe, similar to how we started off "The Quest For Telling," we could open with Ruby telling a Rainbow Face story right before Al lands?

The only detail I'm on the fence about is Guido being involved. (Heh...I actually saw your post yesterday but didn't respond yet because I wanted to decide what I thought about the idea of using Guido. Turns out even after a day, I'm still literally unable to make up my mind about it.) On one hand, I feel like having eight characters along on this adventure could end up being a lot to handle. But on the other hand, welllllll...I really enjoy Guido. :lol What are you guys' thoughts? I'll leave it up to the rest of you to decide! @Little Bro @OwlsCantRead @rhombus

Oh yeah, by the way, here's our character list so far! (Let me know if I accidentally list anyone wrong.)

Rhombus
-Taunt (OC)
-Spike
-Cera

RainbowFaceProtege
-Ruby
-Male Rainbow Face

Little Bro
-Littlefoot
-Ducky

OwlsCantRead
-Petrie
-Guido

Goldenwind
-Al (OC)
-Chomper

Hmmmm... I personally think that @OwlsCantRead is the master at portraying Guido so he certainly has my vote if we want to include that character.  If not, however, then I could try to do my best to portray Guido in character.  It's just that compared to my ability to portray   :^^spike and  :bestsharptooth my ability to play Guido is, well...  :facepalm

I'm fine either way. So if you all think Guido can contribute, I don't mind taking everyone's favorite nervous glider.

Else if you guys think it would be too much, I couldn't help but notice that no one has taken Cera yet, and I'm okay with playing as the skeptic of the gang if I don't take Guido.

If it is alright with you and everyone else, I could also take up Cera if you wanted to handle Guido. Though if someone else wanted to play Cera I would not mind giving her up.

Looks like it's decided: if you guys are up for taking on another character, so am I! (After all, if I could choose an official eighth member for the LBT Gang, it would totally be Guido!) :DD @OwlsCantRead I look forward to seeing you playing him...who better for this job than our resident Guido himself? :lol I'll go ahead and add him to our character list. :)

Hmm...are we pretty much ready to get started on this RP? :wow



EDIT: Wait, I guess not yet...it needs a name. :p While I think about that, suggestions are welcome.

Same, When Guido was introduce, I thought he become the offical 6th member. X) Can't wait to see you RP as Guido Owls!

I feel ready!  :Mo Though I wouldn't mind discussing ideas as we continue on, like what challenges the gang will face as an example.

"It came from Beyond the Mysterious Beyond"? Maybe something that sounds like a movie subtitle "Over the stars"? XD I feel like I am bad at story names.

I guess it's unanimous? Okay then, I'll play Guido. I'll find some way for him to waddle his way into chaos. :sducky

I like "It Came from Beyond the Mysterious Beyond," but it does seem like it is a little long. Maybe just "It came from Beyond?"

@Goldenwind Yep, of course we'll be keeping up this discussion as the RP unfolds. Don't want to be flying blind! :OhYou

I don't think "It Came from Beyond the Mysterious Beyond" is a bad name, either. :) (I personally didn't think that name was too long, but I guess the shorter version could also work.) Some of the names I thought of were "Discoveries Beyond Imagination," "Life as We Never Knew It," (referring to Al being a type of artifical life form that the Gang has never heard of, idk), and "Beyond the Known Universe."
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: RainbowFaceProtege on June 19, 2020, 03:20:02 PM
Okay, after a few days with no further discussion, I'm gonna assume what we name this thing doesn't matter all that much to anyone. :p I'm just gonna go with Goldenwind's suggestion, "It Came From Beyond the Mysterious Beyond," unless anyone suddenly says otherwise.
Is it okay if I go ahead and kick this off? :)littlefoot Similar to the original RP, I was going to begin with Ruby telling a story about "Sky Beings"/Rainbow Faces.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Goldenwind on June 19, 2020, 03:47:51 PM
Sure! I am up for that!  :Mo Maybe we can have Al getting ready to land meanwhile with him crashing once the gang is asleep?
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: rhombus on June 19, 2020, 06:14:17 PM
Sounds good to me! I can handle Cera's (dismissive) opinion of Ruby's story.  ;)Cera  As for Taunt, I will hold him in reserve until Al's arrival permits some comic relief.  :bestsharptooth
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Goldenwind on June 21, 2020, 02:19:46 PM
Is it alright if I write the introduction post with Al traveling through space on something that looks like a shooting star from those who see it on earth? That is if everyone is ready.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: RainbowFaceProtege on June 21, 2020, 03:53:08 PM
@rhombus Hmm, somehow I missed that Cera wasn't claimed yet. In that case, thanks for taking her! ;)Cera

@Goldenwind That works for me! Your response was the one I was holding out on posting over, since I was wondering if you planned to start the story with Al. :p Go right ahead! :)
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: Goldenwind on June 21, 2020, 04:05:32 PM
@RainbowFaceProtege Thanks! :) Might have a cameo from Pterano later as I think he'll be one of the first to witness Al land (It is his month). That is if no one else wants to use him. XD

Post by: rhombus on June 24, 2020, 04:19:21 PM
I am open to any suggestions on that question.  I was holding off on posting for Cera, as I think her skeptical comments would best be heard later on in Ruby's story.
Title: Re: Rainbowfaces RP “The Quest for Telling”
Post by: OwlsCantRead on June 26, 2020, 12:47:38 PM
I am fine with any order. :p

Since I also play Guido, it only makes sense to hold off as well until he can have a more organic introduction.

This is something I felt was sort of tricky about having an established posting order. It makes it difficult to have a character speak up (or not) at the best moments. Personally, I think the only reason we would need to establish a specific posting order would be if the activity in this RP picked up a lot more and we needed to prevent anyone from falling too far behind.

Of course, thanks for posting! I was kind of wondering if this RP was dead for a while there...I guess I paused Ruby's story too soon. I felt like I should stop to give other characters time to interject, but it was probably kind of early for that, whoops. I'll keep going now.

I plan for him to appear when the gang are asleep. He would crash just outside the valley... And probably meet Taunt there.  :bestsharptooth It would be oddly quiet due to the way his space craft was designed. We can have the entire gang get a glimpse of it if you all wish.  :ChomperPOG

Maybe we could use Guido as a means to get the Gang to the landing site? Having nearly sleep-flown over the Great Wall, he would then wake up, see the spacecraft, and alert the Gang? What do you think @OwlsCantRead ?

Have Guido take Littlefoot's role in LBT7? I can work with that.
