Dragonball M: A DBZ RPG Sign-Up and Discussion Thread II

[Cthulhu_of_R'lyeh]

Took a bit longer than promised, cuz I got a bit carried away ... but there ya go Cleric.

Thank you for waiting !

[Lord Falcon]

So what happened to the no mentioning each other till we were done with PMs thing?

So what happened to the no mentioning each other till we were done with PMs thing?

So this was my sentiment on the matter:

Realistically any interaction between Asha'rah, and Ishtar, should wait until we've sorted what we need to via PM.

This was what you had to say in response:

Oh heavens no. Asha'rah isn't going to actually interact with Ishtar herself or anyone she's interacting with until the PMs are sorted, as you say.

I stated any interaction between the two of them should wait. You agreed that an 'actual interaction' with Ishtar (or anyone Ishtar is interacting with, for whatever reason), would wait until the PM conversation has reached its course.

If you feel a character, reacting to another character's actions is the two of them interacting directly, not sure what to say there. As ignoring a character's actions, sort of defeats the purpose of well ... this sort of thing.

I am fine with it based on what I said, yes.

It's just that I caught flak for Asha'rah even being outside the room Ishtar was in, despite the scene taking place between her and Zurvan happening in what from what I could tell was a public space, and this seems to run down that same vein.

I mean outside of my saying them interacting directly was odd, I was pretty clear that it didn't bother me that Asha'rah was there for it.

So apologies if I made it seem otherwise.

[bruceleegreyhulk]

give Praxat another racial trait her blood contains a natural anti freeze. This allows her to survive in extreme cold temperatures during hibernation even when frozen.

[Cthulhu_of_R'lyeh]

Maybe slow down a bit on the racial traits ?

[bruceleegreyhulk]

okay I will and that's the last one.

[grampagen]

...I'll check back in later, lol

Ah. Well if I misunderstood you, sorry about that. You were third in line after Grampagen and Sub-Zero got on my case about it, which might have ended up blurring your points together. I really can't be arsed to dig the post up right now.

Is Asha'rah part of the psychic link?

[Cthulhu_of_R'lyeh]

Ishtar extended the offer to everyone, so it's whether or not Asha'rah accepted.

I wasn't getting on your case, Falcon. I was just surprised by Asha'rah's reaction. Or lack thereof.

[Lord Falcon]

I wasn't getting on your case, Falcon. I was just surprised by Asha'rah's reaction. Or lack thereof.

I recall the main complaint being about intruding on what should be a private moment.

Asha'rah did have a reaction, which was why I made a post at all. But if you're referring to the lack of shock, that's because to Asha'rah the intervention of sealing away Ishtar's hakai may have been justified, even if the execution was deeply flawed.

To be clear, Asha'rah considers her own imprisonment within her robotic body entirely justified and rather lighter punishment than what she was expecting if/when she lost. You don't just lead a rebellion against the Omnipotent Child God of Everything and walk away scot-free. When you don't expect all of creation to conform to your own moral code, justification just depends on the perspective and priorities of the parties involved.

Gotcha.

For the record, this particular reaction from Ishtar is delicious to me. Not because she's wrong, but because she's perceiving events accurately (from my perspective). Asha'rah has Blue and Orange morality and the skewed perspective of someone who was weird even among the original gods.

[Sub-Zero MKA]

Add a response to Ishtar in Parsley's last post. Turned out longer than I thought it'd be.

Asha'rah's lack of reaction to Erosa dying is what I meant.
