Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Gaston - 05-29-2017
Would anyone be interested in a Secondary storyline? The idea is that a group of Secondaries, either previously existing or newly made, are on some kind of boating trip-probably a cruise-and shipwreck on an island. The idea is that the story is about the group setting up a civilisation on the island, finding a proper food source, building shelter, things like that. Would anyone be interested?

I'd throw Ozal into this. He's my Ferengi secondary.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Gaston - 05-29-2017
Is there anywhere that a profile can be found for this NPC?
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Gildarts - 05-29-2017

Yeah lemme dredge it up.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Hiro Protagonist - 05-29-2017
Name: Ozal
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Appearance:
![[Image: Little-Green-Men-ferengi-19047746-692-530.jpg]](http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/19000000/Little-Green-Men-ferengi-19047746-692-530.jpg)
Relationships: Ozal owns the main bar in Silverrock Town, creatively named Ozal's. He cultivates a decent relationship with the majority of the townsfolk, as long as they are the drinking-and-debauchery type. Asceticism and deprivation is something he doesn't tolerate, and if you're not buying, you're flying. He also has a few off island contacts that he uses to bring in specialty items, and has ties to a small black market trade around the island. If you need something less than legal, Ozal can probably get it, although it's not going to be cheap.
Profession(s): Bartender, Fence, Gambler
History: Ozal came with the original mining operation, hoping to take advantage of an untapped market for huge profits. Unfortunately, the silver veins ran out just as he finished establishing his bar, and he was stuck owning property in a rapidly deserting island. As a typical Ferengi however, he relentlessly pursued profit by using his natural business acumen and charm to cultivate relationships with some of the less reputable merchants and visitors who couldn't or wouldn't dock closer to Costa Del Sol. He runs the bar like any good business; the cheap stuff is alright, but anything better is going to cost you - and that's not just the drinks. He also has a few table games available for those that love gambling, although he doesn't let anyone look too closely at those Dabo wheels....
Possessions:
Ozal's Bar and Casino - A spacious three story bar and grill, with a gambling floor available. There is a respectable selection of food and drink from most of the Omniverse, but you're not going to find Klopkaan Berry Schnapps from the Tangled Green every day. He lives in the attic above the gaming floor, but can almost always be found on the ground level bar, serving drinks and chatting with customers.
Ferengi Disrupter Pistol - A phased Tetryon Beam weapon, Ozal keeps this beneath the bar for "peacekeeping". It has variable settings, from "Stun" to "Carbonize".
Powers & Abilities:
Quad Lobed Brain - As a member of the Ferengi race, Ozal's four loved brain renders him highly resistant to telepathy and mind reading.
Ferengi Cunning - Ferengi are supremely adept at persuasion, deal brokering, and anything to do woth profit. More than once, Ozal has been able to use his smarts and acumen to turn a crossbow in the face into a sack of gold.

During, likely, but will start before. Since it is only for Secondaries, it shouldn't affect your ability to join, though if you feel that it would take too much time away from what you could do for DA, I understand.
Also, to anyone who would care, the NPC I am joining as can be found on my roster, the last NPC Secondary in my list, Sealua.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Madotsuki - 05-29-2017
I'd like to make a Secondary for this! I'll work on making Urotsuki.

Hmm, I think I'll wait to hear a little more details before I make up my mind ^^
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Amaterasu - 05-30-2017
While the idea itself isn't bad, I recommend that you take a look at the feedback that was accumulated for Windfall Island (my Secondary location which went down the drain), to avoid making the same errors. Most of all, a large group is going to be pretty slow, and slice-of-life RPs don't seem to draw people in as much as RPs with a clear goal to work towards and eventually reach. If you want I can PM you more info though.
But yes, cool idea! I'd join in but I am fairly occupied already, for the time being.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Revan Noctis - 05-30-2017
I will join. I've not got a secondary so I will have to create a new one. Would there be any restrictions on the choice of secondary?
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Gaston - 05-30-2017
There wouldn't be any restriction, just be reasonable with powers and equipment they have. Also, Amaterasu, please do PM with details of the arc. I'd like to know how to make mine work better.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - The Vision - 05-30-2017
Alright I'm in. Let me get back to you on whom I will join with, but I'm in.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Yu Kanda - 05-30-2017
Even though this sounds like a lot of fun, i can't really focus on anything other than DA and DD right now. Both events will run side by side for a little while. Seeing my limitted amount of time to write, i will have to pass up on this.
I will have to say, the setting and idea is pretty good ^^
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Demetri Malius - 05-30-2017
Could also give you a few tips Cole, if you are interested, maain thing is if you are overlooking the group, make sure you have time for the group and a backup plan in case things go wrong. Life smacked my saga in the face for both the runners and the participants and it stopped it dead one day it will come back, just wait
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Gaston - 05-30-2017
Gonna get 2 more people for this, and then I'll make the thread, so we don't have too many.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Harlan Higgs - 05-30-2017
Ozal would probably be the ship's cook. Also, I think a good goal, instead of a nebulous "build a civilization", would be "aurvive and escape.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Gaston - 05-30-2017
Of course, the "survive and escape" part would be, of course, the main part, but "build a civilisation" would be almost equally important, for reasons to be revealed.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Mega Man X - 05-30-2017
I may be interested, but between Dark Data and the incoming Dante's Abyss, I'm not certain how much time and creativity I can set aside for this. Plus I may have to create a new Secondary to work with.
On the other hand, if I end up being unable to join DA due to DD, I may have much more availability here.
RE: Secondary Shipwrecked Storyline - Gaston - 06-05-2017
Since no one else has posted, I'll be making the thread now. It'll be open, just so that more people can join.
