LBT roleplay in the style of the original movie?

Thank you!

Now that Rinen and Aquarius have gotten out of the cave, is it time for them to meet Buko and Wyoh somewhere in the surrounding area? It seems like the logical way to proceed from now on.

I think you guys should do that, they’d better be careful though, Slash couldn’t have gone too far

Yep, and Buko (with his bright purple feathers and crest) isn't exactly good at blending in.

Maybe you should slow down a little. For some reason jorrdy and I are a bit slow (and in my case it is a longer post with a flashback that doesn't quite want to work out atm but I'm trying to make it work)

Sneak · **Reply #205 on:** January 16, 2018, 10:12:49 AM

Ok, guys, we have at least two "headless" projects now.
At first: what would be with our roleplay now? Options?
Will we continue? If so, who will be chief from now? Somebody will took Ducky's character?

Sovereign · **Reply #206 on:** January 16, 2018, 10:21:07 AM

I'd say it's almost certain that we'll continue but perhaps Lizzie will disappear from the story. We'll just have to come up with some solution for Jorrdy.

As Ducky has been reinstated he can resume his leadership role of the RP once he comes back.

Sneak · **Reply #208 on:** January 16, 2018, 03:49:33 PM

great news.

...and I shall return with an long post (finally broke the writer's block I had on that flashback scene...) and an idea for the oasis scene that we're planning.

So, I've been thinking that we could pull off a scene somewhat different yet similar to the scene in the original movie where the gang minus Cera gang up to reach the food high up in the trees. While I think that the oasis should be big enough to sustain both groups with food easily, how about we have our two groups find a tree with some special food (treestars? Tree sweets?) and quarrel about it? This really just popped up in my head while reviewing and proofreading what I've been writing inbetween several breaks at school so I don't know if it could work out. Just thought I should share it

Also, I was planning to talk to rhombus about the future of the RP without me which thankfully isn't necessary anymore. I would have asked someone else to submit my posts for me so I could still participate at least.

rhombus · **Reply #210 on:** January 19, 2018, 12:25:05 AM

That does sound like a good idea. Though Buko and his companion will take any food at this point they would be annoyed to be deprived of treesweets by a bunch of leaf-munchers.

That could certainly create some interesting banter and minor conflict between the groups.

Now that Rinen and Aquarius' "first scene" is completed, should we wait a little for you two to proceed with your plot or should I start preparing the next post?

Rhombus and I are somewhere in the bottom part of the map, moving (upwards? north? Northeast-ish?) toward the hills area.

I just wish to make sure as this comment by Darkwolf puzzled me somewhat. Are Wyoh and Buko close enough to Rinen and Aquarius for our storylines to converge in the next posts?

I think the fastrunner duo will be close enough to interact with the others soon. Right now I am waiting on Wyoh's next post before posting again to the RP.

Yes! Sorry, this was written before Rhombus posted and we did our "time-skip," so to speak. Now Buko and Wyoh are in the hills, and presumably close to Rinen and Aquarius.

Finally found a time to start reading full story so far.
And jesus Murtaugh christ and holy Liz's cow! It's already full of darkest and uncomfortable elements, since the very first posts. O_o
14+, no, 16+, no! 18+ age rating! (lol)

Well, I predicted this since I read characters' bios long time ago. But still, it's kinda uncomfortable to look at our created universe as part of original LBT... No, I'm not complaining or something. That's not bad, I think. It's me who thought that story will match in almost exact the same level with atmosphere of original LBT, the darkest movie in series, with not-friendly atmosphere of terrain world, but still, with more... lighter elements and more humanistic dinosaurs' societies. So it's ok.

Still, I'm very interested to see how this goes! So I just need to "reconfigure" myself and my reading, and set it to almost completely different atmosphere.

And prepare my charcter for such hostility world.

Sneak · **Reply #215 on:** January 31, 2018, 05:07:38 AM

New question here, guys:
Can you, please, tell here height and sizes of your characters, comparing to each other and comparing to LBT gang characters from original movie, or even making height chart.

Because I'm reading story, I have opinion than some characters are not in size I imagine, or not in the same size with gang's counterpart characters. Clear example: Aquarius. the youngest, supposed to be smaller, but sometines I think he's MUUUCH bigger than I imagine. What is his actual size comparing to Ducky and Rinen, for example?
It would be very helpful! Thank you.

Oh, and also: I sill have to make final decision, but now I think my character would fly from the bottom west, from inlands, then he reachs border between devastated area and undamaged land, then he flies close to this border to the east, but not so fast, because he has to explore and investigate everything. For his personal science. :s
Anyway, I will write when I make final decision. Stay tuned!

Sovereign · **Reply #216 on:** January 31, 2018, 10:33:18 AM

That's a really good question, actually. The way I see it, Rinen being 4 years older than Cera means he's probably quite a bit larger than her, perhaps about one-third of the height of an adult swimmer (or one-fifth of an adult threehorn) in addition to being a little fatter than Cera. I, too, have wondered about Aquarius' size as his assault on Rinen earlier was a surprise considering the age/size difference but I guess the swimmer's attack was possible in any case. Aquarius is presumably a year older than Ducky so he shouldn't be much bigger than her. However, TLD probably has his own idea about this.

rhombus · **Reply #217 on:** January 31, 2018, 11:06:34 AM

Buko's size is about the same size as Ruby as of the television series, except that he is slightly leaner (and bright purple, as the running joke goes). I am unsure about Wyoh's exact size but she is a bit taller than Buko despite being younger, as she is a different species of fastrunner.

DarkWolf91 · **Reply #218 on:** January 31, 2018, 08:50:24 PM

I wouldn't mind putting together a quick size-comparison chart once everybody puts word in as to their character's size.

Hypno · **Reply #219 on:** February 01, 2018, 12:04:59 AM

Slash is like 40 something feet long, maybe 20 feet tall...whatever the size of a Carcharodontosaurus is, I can’t remember. About the size of a T. rex, some say it’s even slightly larger.
