The Round Table (A collaborative fiction thread)

[Cherry Lover]

Well, having Ayako as Caster's master wouldn't actually be that bad an idea, because it would mean being able to uer her magic to assist Sakura. Conversely, though, it also removes a potential antagonist, and adds someone to the protagonists, which possibly makes them too strong.

Also, this is looking suspiciously like the story we were developing on old DSM....

[lantzblades]

I don't remember it

[Cherry Lover]

Well, OK, fair enough. It is looking rather similar, though....

[lantzblades]

perhaps, ok, regarding hercules, keep him or not?

[Xamusel]

I have an idea for that one, lantz.

Keep the Berserker class, but make it so that they get someone else by accident, namely Lu Pu (mistakenly named Lu Bu by silly translators that don't know how to read Chinese properly).

Do you like it, or is that not viable in your opinion?

[Cherry Lover]

perhaps, ok, regarding hercules, keep him or not?

Well, I'm not really bothered, honestly. Probably we should keep him, if only in order that he can act as a viable enemy who isn't Zouken or Gil. We can't have the entire war focus solely on beating Gil, after all.

[lantzblades]

actually we could build up to fighting Gil, I meant it would be nice to not see lol mongrels Gilgamesh for once.

as for lu bu no, none of the three kingdoms stuff.

[Cherry Lover]

Yeah, sure we can "build up" to fighting Gil, but I'm not sure that works as basically the entire story....

[lantzblades]

why not? i mean skimishes will happen but why not one bad guy rather than a cluster fuck?

[Cherry Lover]

Because you can only skirmish so many times with the same guy before it stops being interesting. With Gil, it's worse, because if he pulls out Ea it's basically game over....

[lantzblades]

I think between Sakura, The fight with Gil, Recruiting Bazzet, dealing with ilya, caster and shinji we are pretty full up, dividing  and extending the fight further will get more than a few characters killed.

Yeah, but we don't have to deal with Shinji (at least not much), and if we give Caster to Ayako we won't have to deal with her either.

[lantzblades]

Yeah, but we don't have to deal with Shinji (at least not much), and if we give Caster to Ayako we won't have to deal with her either.

shinji would get rider to start with, untangling that is a whole thing, and we'd still have to deal with caster character wise.

[Cherry Lover]

Well, yes, Shinji would get Rider initially, but that's probably not going to last all that long given that that means Sakura has little involvement. And, yes, we have to deal with Caster in that sense, but not fight her.

[lantzblades]

that's still something to consider, we're stuffed
