The Revolution DT

@Sheyren Oooh! Fencing. Now that's pretty neat. In my case I'm just... fast? Lol, s'probably because I'm black or something, yeah that must be it, let's go with stereotypes XD
Seriously though, I can't wait to start practicing sports a bit more seriously after healing completely. And unfortunately, Kendama training doesn't entirely count, despite being really challenging/fun. And before you ask, I mean this:

NO OF COURSE I'M NOT AT THIS LEVEL YET WHAT ARE YOU GUYS THINKING I'M JUST A SLOW REPTILE TRYING TO BE FAST AND FAILING STOP IT DON'T ENCOURAGE ME WAAAAAAAAAH

@Tortwag, now I'm thinking of The Truth Behind the Mask because you mentioned kendamas. The memories. <3

I'll try to post tomorrow, though I can't make any promises (I'm hopelessly in love with this storybook, so it will definitely be tomorrow. ). @Poopsie, can you PM any details I need to know as the group heads off to find Sivv?

Also, thanks to some questions @Mea asked via PM, expect an update to the background of the SB regarding Notch in the next couple of days.

@Mage Yeeees, I HAD to give Risfeel that item, it's such an important one for me <3 You'll probably see it again at some point :3 But good memories indeed. Don't worry though, I'm recycling at least Myrmidon for a later SB somewhere

Ah and speaking of posts, mine's half way done, but that's not the only news I've got. Ohohoh, man, I am SERIOUSLY pumped for the next posts, because I've been researching on several Minecraft-related infos (with or without mods), and BOY I discovered some veeeeeeeeery interesting constructions and possibilities for my side plot later on.
Said side-plot will involve everyone of you guys, btw, so my "game-breaker" role with Kysaline is still into play. You've been warned, y'all

@ Tortwag That video was insane... I need to get a kendama. Did you see that... Uh... Thing in the right of the screen at 2:30?

The Hooded Figure and I are absolutely terrified by that warning.

@Sheyren I know, right? But actually, it's not even because of this video that I wanted one ever since I was 8: it's because the first Mage type character I took in an Action/RPG of mine? Heh. Genis Sage, that kid uses a KENDAMA to cast spells, or to physically assault you, like so:


Mind you, that ball he strikes you with becomes a ball of steel later in the game. Oh oh, and by spells, I mean like Meteor showers, electric swords that fall from the sky, gravity holes, tornados, eruptions, or even stalagmites. Or as he loves to call it: Pancake Time XD Gosh that kid is my lil' hero.

And... Do describe that thing. I don't think I know what you're talking about.


@Mage You better be Especially Lumm. But don't worry, that won't happen before a while :3

@Tortwag, before or after his identity is revealed? I'm hoping it's the latter option; the suspense is killing me and I'm the one who knows who he is!

Ooh, what game was that?

I can't describe it well... Its like a man in a blue suit with huge ball shaped ears and... I don't know. Lol

@Sheyren Tales of Symphonia. If you like RPGs, if you like... stories. By all means, I kneel before you and beg that you let yourself experience this piece of amazing art. I'm SERIOUS. Tales of Symphonia is an amazing game. Maybe a bit old, but it recently got itself a re-release on PC. There's a reason for that.

...Man in a blue suit immediately screams megaman, but you said man, not robot. Wasn't it like an ad or something? Because I have adblock. Darn it you'd need to give me a picture or screenprint or something so I can see it.

@Mage After. Definitely after. The event I'm thinking about is triggered when Kysaline receives a message from her parents as they announce that they're coming back.
...Heheheheheheheheheheh...

That should be very interesting. I'm unhealthily obsessed with this storybook.

Speaking of this storybook, I noticed something really interesting. I don't think I ever said anything about the characters being human; I just called them descendants. But this is Minecraft we're talking about, and you've all seen the skins people make for them. There's an incredible variety that has other options besides humans.

Still, there's only a single non-human descendant: @Poopsie's Sivv. Which I find to be incredibly interesting. The scientist in me is wondering why the thought to have a character who wasn't completely human didn't cross most of our minds, myself included.

I think I'll have some non-human Resistance members in the near future. Especially this mysterious Eva person the equally mysterious Lumm Stephens repeatedly brings up.

I'm curious about this too: How do you think The Hooded Figure is connected to Eva?

It's definitely not mega man... It's in the video with the kendamas. If you look in the right of the screen in the background...

Anyway, yeah, I love RPGs. I play an MMORPG on my phone called Toram Online, which is phenomenal for a mobile game. In other words, RPGs are one of the reasons I was born.

I'll have to play another game sitting on my computer to make this arc interesting - and then PM you a thing or two - but yes, it should be interesting for everyone.

...yeah, actually, I noticed that in the researches I did. For instance a few staff people from the B.Ware Empire aren't humans, or so I planned. But it's good that you mention it. Then again we can become something else than humans by literally buying skins - and we don't even need mods to do that.

I... haven't finished catchin' up with the post, so I can't voice my opinion yet. But I guess it kind of makes sense, since Kysaline doesn't actually care about who the guy is, lol. (I do though, I just didn't reach that point yet)

@Sheyren OH. Uh, that's a cosplayer. And considering that it's THAT type of blue, it might be a type of Hatsune Miku haircut.
Welcome to Japan.

Yeah, uh, Tales of Symphonia is... so much more than that, but you'll realize that yourself if you get to play it. Gameplay, music, story, characters, themes. You. Will. Like it. I'm even willing to bet that you will, it's that good.

So my current guess is that the Hooded Figure is either Notch, Herobrine, or Steve. If he's Steve, I'm guessing Eva is Alex.

I think the reason we all chose humans is because in Minecraft, even if your skin is a dragon or a slime block, you still move/function like a human.

Interesting guess, @Mea! Hopefully you won't have to wait too long to find out the truth.

@Mea That would explain how he knows who the descendents are...
