I had a random character idea...when you said Nikki needed a friend. It would be like an awkward kid around her age, who is like forever friend zoned, because like you said in her bio she likes the muscular older type...but he could be her friend, but be totally in love with her....*shrugs* I dunno!

A picture just for me!? D'aawww I feel loved.
As for Nikki's friend, the forever friend zoned character is a good idea, but I want to leave a spot open for Logos if he does decide to make a new character. Mainly because he only has one character and Munster has two. So if Logos DOES join, and if he's up for it, than his character and Nikki could be friends but if he doesn't than Munsters character would be great.

Yep yep! That's why I haven't made him yet. I was waiting to see if Logos wanted another character. Besides, mine was just an idea!

I think its good that ya'll are leaving it to Logos (though knowing his patterns {wow I've been around ya'll way too long} he may very well be planning to pour all his awsome logos-energies into Kade'Jah) since he only has one charrie. Not that I would mind you adding a character really, but I think its really bit early in the game to be adding characters just to add characters. Not that I'm stopping you but craft with conviction, I say! XD

Oh yeah, I don't plan on just throwing characters out there. It was just an idea, I don't even know if I'm going to do it yet! Just throwing an idea out there, that's all!

Marley: I was wondering if Chelsea could end up on the polo team too! That way Michael won't be alone, it will add some diversity to the game, and honestly I just see it as a better fit to her personality. There obviously may be some technical dificulties (such as it's obviously not a sport you can just pick up like that) but this is fiction:=) and Chelsea has had a bit of previous horse experiance, and perhaps she can just be a natural.
Also, I had a suggestion as to roomates.
Perhaps (if there are two to a room) You can have one older student and one younger student. Or if there are three to a room, a younger student, and older student, and a ride for hope student. Or perhaps a hybrid of any of these ideas. My thoughts behind it is that it creates a"buddy system acountability thing". If it were a school in rl, I can see it running smoothly that way.
Just a thought. I can also see people the same age working out too, though, because of presumable having similar scheduals.
Thoughts, anyone?

Haha, I'm not actually all that sure what I'm doing with the Polo team. XD The main reason I put Michael on it was because I didn't want him having to compete with Sam (plus, I've been playing a bit of Polo recently) but I'd be willing to figure out something for Chelsea.
I see the polo team (and those associated with it... btw polo teams generally consist of four players and an alternate or two) as a sort of middle ground between the rough-around-the-eges RFH students and the chronically uptight show jumpers. They have a good time, get into shennanigans and try to keep things lite. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve for the RFH students (tehehe) but I can defiantly see Chelsea hanging out with the Polo kids and maybe eventually joining the team (our alternate is injured! *gasp* Who can we put in?!). I worry about creating 3 major groups though (jumprs, RSF, Polo), so until the characters are a bit more meshed I'm probably gonna hold off making the polo team a major facet of the game, but we'll see. :-)
As for roomates - Bayley has 4 cottages (6th-8th Grade Boys {holds 6}, 6-8th Girls {6}, HS Boys {12}, HS Girls {12}) in which the students live in alongside one 'house parent' (ex - Will is the House Parent of the HS Boys Cottage). So, though our guys and girls will be separate, all of our characters will basically be under the same roof (kinda glad no one did a middle schooler... would have added a whole nother ball game for me to wrangle).
I was thinking each HS dorm room would house two students close in age (so 6 dorm rooms plus the house parent's quarters in each cottage). RSF students will be paired with a Bayley Student, but I don't know that I'm gonna put the 'younger buddy' system in place (I mean if I'm a 17yr old freshman in college do I really want/need to be living with a senior?).
I'm gonna slap a rough schedule up on the bulliten board, but really I see actual riding time being more divided by experience (so basically RSF vs. Showjumper at first) than age so the big thing would be their time at school... which if we play it out they can just be crossing eachother in the hall anyways. *shrugs*
I've got ideas in my head of who I'm gonna pair up, but I'm gonna wait to make a final decision until we've gotten a couple of meet&greet type posts down. ^_^

I am working on a second character. He's going to be the scion of the House of Hohenzollern--the old Prussian (German) royal family--Kaiser Wilhelm II is his great-great grandfather. My idea is for him to be a bit cocky, but eccentric rather than mean. I'm having a hard time deciding if I want him to be younger (to be a friend for Nikki, and maybe share her crush on Owen, lol), or have him be an older student, perhaps a foil for Arabella. Maybe she could have a crush on him/decide that, perfect being that she is, she should be the one to get the real, live prince. Munster, if you want to do your idea, I could go ahead with the older version of my character. I found a very good picture for the kind of character you described, and I'll post it for you if you want. One way or the other though, I would like there to be another character Nikki's age. Also, would it be possible for a character to be in more than one event? I would like Kade'jah to be in Hunter/Jumper for the character-interaction possibilities, but I think her personality and attitude are also well suited for being one of the polo hooligans.

Do whatever you feel is best for your character Logos! I would like to see the picture you found....but I still don't know if I'll make him or not....I just don't want him to run out as a character I just kinda messily thew together.

Logos - Possibly. Again I'm not entirely sure how I'm gonna handle the polo team. But what I think I'm gonna do is say that their 'season' doesn't start till the spring semester. This way they can be a bit more open in the fall semester operating more as a club and our RFH studnents can, well, actually learn to ride XD. They might have a couple of scrimmages in the fall, but the focus would still remain on the hunter/jumpers.... If that makes sense. I just worry that adding too many elements to the game too fast could be a bit overwhelming for folks.

Ambassador: I absolutely love that you're playing a character that I know what he sounds like. That way I can have a great mental picture. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItpJ3bQDm_AHere is a video for the rest of you. It's what Bradley sounds like.

XD Well, I mean you can assume Sam sounds like Emma Watson, look up an interview for Ed Sheeran to get a feel of Michael's voice and mannerisms, I actually wasn't super thrilled with Ian's pic so imagine him however, David however, I kinda imagine Will as talking like Chase (haha oops...) from House M.D. sooo. XD

I'm a Massive Smallville fan. I have every season in the collectable box sets.
This is how I picture Kasey sounding.
And the girl is how I picture Nikki sounding.
