Paladin Academy: A Playground Inspired Story

[Viera Champion]

Kurama's great great great grandson!

[Partysan]

Then I wanna be a girl pally!

[Lix Lorn]

If you guys actually do draft this abomination of an FFRP, I'm going to create some nightmarish villain. Just because.

Want to ally?

[BladeofOblivion]

Want to ally?

Yes. The smart villian does not spurn such eager applicants.

Not unless they are in shining armor or are otherwise obviously Heroes.

[Hiro Protagonest]

I think the RP should take place in a different time, with a different set of paladins. But Blue can stay, since he's the wizard.

But I want all the familiar characters to be there!

[Partysan]

But I want all the familiar characters to be there!

Maybe Viola is now headmistress, Mordocai moved in with Blue, Kurama is a teacher and Penny is the janitor.

[Lix Lorn]

Silly. I killed Mordokai and duelled Blue. It was a draw. We both got really injured. There is UST.*

*One of these is a lie.

[Hiro Protagonest]

I got an awesome idea about how Blue's still there long after the rest have died! He becomes... Blue the ghost!

[Lix Lorn]

Positive energy spirit you mean.
Only the honour of a paladin is unbreakable.

[Hiro Protagonest]

Positive energy spirit you mean.
Only the honour of a paladin is inbreakable.

He's not a paladin, and ghosts behave exactly as they did in life, they aren't evil unless they were in life.

[Lix Lorn]

Still, the undead type has negative connotations.

...
Pun not intended I swear.

[Hiro Protagonest]

They aren't necessarily negative energy, remember Roy's ghost? Of course, that could be just for the OOTS setting.

[Lix Lorn]

...maybe. I'm not sure he was a ghost. He wasn't undead, just... dead.

[Hiro Protagonest]

Ghosts are dead! They just aren't in the afterlife.

[Recaiden]

Still, the undead type has negative connotations.

...
Pun not intended I swear.

But these aren't OOTS undead, just ghosts.

[Hiro Protagonest]

But these aren't OOTS undead, just ghosts.

You're right! It isn't dnd if it doesn't have a game system!

Also, in 4e, (I don't play, but I bought some of the books before I found out 3.5 is better) there's an epic destiny for wizards called "the archlich". The fluff is you're a lich, but not necessarily evil, because you found out on your own how to become a lich, rather than using the ritual of Orcus, demon prince of undead.

[Lix Lorn]

Pretty cool, but I can't see Blue as a skeleton. A ghost is more likely.

[Hiro Protagonest]

Yeah, I was using it as an example of a non-evil negative energy undead.

[Lix Lorn]

True enough. I'm not saying Negative Energy is always evil, just that it generally is and is perceived as such.

[Ranger Mattos]

How about he's just a Deathless (from the BoED)?

[Recaiden]

How about he's just a Deathless (from the BoED)?

But Deathless are so pointless. I wouldn't wish being a Deathless on my worst enemy.

[Hiro Protagonest]

But Deathless are so pointless. I wouldn't wish being a Deathless on my worst enemy.

It's a good way to gain immortality. And the positive energy spirits in OOTS are basically the deathless version of the ghost. But I prefer regular ghosts.

Fine, homebrew up a ghost-type creature that's a Deathless, not an Undead.

THIS IS A FREE FORM ROLE PLAY, IT DOESN'T USE ANY GAME SYSTEM, THERE ARE NO STAT BLOCKS.

By "Homebrew", I'm fairly sure he meant "make up."

[Hiro Protagonest]

By "Homebrew", I'm fairly sure he meant "make up."

I'm not so sure, because it sounded like he was talking about stats.

[BladeofOblivion]

I'm not so sure, because it sounded like he was talking about stats.

Is ghost a type now? I think he just meant a deathless creature that resembles a ghost. Problem solved.

[Blue Ghost]

The Spirit of Paladin Academy, who occasionally shows up to give advice in the form of cryptic metaphors! I like it!

[Viera Champion]

Kurama's the new head of the Academy. *cough cough* Huh what? Who said that? Whoever did has some great ideas going.

[Saint Nil]

Hmm, maybe this could actually force me to spend sometime on the FFRP section like I promised certain villains I would. >.>
