View Full Version : Fantaisies going a bit too far?
Xcalibur

So snowdrop claims that it's "acceptable" to be a 10 years old girl living in a world with a bow and a sword at her side USED to kill people.
I said people.
So she's claiming (indirectly) that a 10 years old girl can withstand the whole stress and traumastim of cutting the throad of a person and watching that person bleed out and die...
A bit too far?
What after? someone inviting an imaginary pirate boat? People pretending to have nervous pregnancy? Cyber sex in merchant events?
Her profil
Race: Sylvankind Gender: Female
Clan: Lassaran D'ahranal
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.
She has mischievous, enchanting blue eyes and lily white skin.
She has raggedly cut, scruffy flame-red hair with two braids at each temple interwoven with Imaera lace.
She has a round face, a freckled button nose and small delicate ears swept into slightly upturned points.
Strongest foe vanquished: a storm griffin

She doesnt use a sword and it isnt real life.
Dont like it? Thats up to you, dont roleplay with her.
And she has never cut anyone's throat and watched then bleed to death.

You could make the case that no fantasy goes too far, it's all make-believe. However, Simutronics has indicated in several places that they're trying to keep the game kid-safe, so having a fake kid walking around fake murdering fake things would be a no-no, I guess.
Speaking of kid killers, though, check out City of God. I hear it's awesome.

How do you say that? Tongue on the cheek? I was teasing you, man. Still, it's imaginary (real sense of it ;) ) :lol:
Snowdrop, you are the worse roleplayer I ever saw, you created something "unique" but which is impossible physicaly, mentaly (in the short run, even) and socialy.

Isn't the very young attribute for a sylvankind about 300? A 10 year old sylvan would be on par to a human child of about 3 in size and stature I'd imagine.
Soulpieced
02-14-2004, 06:23 PM
Lowest age range for a sylvan: 30 to 176. So a 10 year old sylvan can be extrapolated to have the physical capability of a 7 year old human child, but with smaller stature. Not a viable RP, as the youngest a sylvan who could leave home to adventure would be 30 just so you know.
Because knowing is half the battle.

I have always believed that playing a child in GemStone is poor roleplaying, unless the player of that child maintains the "child" image. That would mean, to me, no hunting (whoops! no leveling!), not being readily accepted into adult groups (whoops! Hope there are other kids around to play with.), and spending large amounts of time being educated (Yep. School.).
Also required would be the aging factor. Nobody stays ten years old forever. A reasonable time factor for aging the child would have to be adhered to. Additionally, the mores for the particular racial culture should be considered. No ten year old Sylvan is going to be out gallivanting around the countryside. It is not the Sylvan way.
I do not consider myself the standing expert on roleplaying in Elanthia, but I do believe there are ways to do it right and ways to get it all wrong. Playing a child in Elanthia is a sure way to get it all wrong, in my opinion, unless you are willing to take your roleplay several levels above bare minimum and subject yourself to the limitations that are part of doing it properly. :)

I'll have to agree with the others who say it's a bit of a stretch. I can't check now, but what I gather from what Soulpieced says, the mechanics of the game don't allow you to set your age to 10 as a Sylvan. That would mean you're playing out of the boundaries of the game...which...eh...kinda stinks :thumbsdown:
Along the lines of people who try to RP that they are kobolds or roltons and other stuff like that...just not cool.

I'm curious as to what the reason is to have the character 10 years old. And I don't mean a history to support it. I mean, what is the fascination to roleplay a child in a clearly adult-dominated game? The mechanics aren't even built around a child. Why force that particular roleplay?

Ditto on the name.
I will add my boo to the 10 year old roleplay as well. Though I maintain a do what you will it's your game, I would not interact with that character. Lamer than a evilsorc or tartlovinghalfling.

Historicly thinking, it is known that young children fought, and died in battles. They killed and was killed. A 10 year old is maybe pushing the boundries of that, but I'm sure they fought and died at some point.
Now, as for the aging of a Sylph. I personally have always felt that they elves "grow" the same as a human does, they just do not age the same. So thus, a 10 year old elf would be just as physically "grown" as a human.
Do I agree with the RP? Not 100%. Does it effect me much? Not really. If I see her, and she interacts with me and I treat her like a child and she gets pissed and trys to harm me will she die? More then likly ;)

Non official, since you don't "sux" enough to get one (although celeri is a DAMN ugly name as a character (but goes with the idea of women in that era, i guess ;))
But here's one from your request!
gemstone is a fantasy game in itself. people have characters that do things that would be unhread of in the real world every day. but, who cares, so what, we can either choose to roleplay with the person or not. life goes on.
its very heard of for children to fight, murder, and rape in some countries/cultures. so, although her roleplay may be a bit far fetched we all start off as 0 in Gemstone and we can choose to be who we want, or what we want. Why come down on someone for creating something you have nothing to do with.
i just dont see what the big deal is.

Erm...first off, I dont believe I have ever seen you in game, so Im not sure how you can judge my roleplay.
Secondly, aside from what's posted here, what is it about my roleplay that you dont like? The fact that I play Snowdrop as a child? Thats not "unique" (sic). I have encountered several players that have attempted to do something similar since I started playing Snowdrop and I very strongly doubt that I was the first.
Thirdly, Snowdrop has been awarded RP awards, so thankfully, not everyone is as narrow-minded as you. Judging by the amount of people who interact with Snowdrop as a child, (and that would be positively and negatively) it seems like you are pretty much in the minority.
You deserve my first offical BOOH

I don't play since a bit, but that doesn't mean I never saw you, hell, many characters I had interacted with you. You're not consistent.
You're the kind of roleplayer I call: Opportunist. You play her as what you'd want 50% of the time. Rest is influenced by your immediate feeling toward the situation.
You play her as a child? BRAVO! You're mistaken a part of being a child though. Soulpieced estimated snowdrop's age in human as around 7-8 years old.
Snowdrop is not a 7-8 years old person, maybe mentaly, but that would be with a problem of dedoublement of personalities.
Your third point mean 0 for me, as I was too, awared with RPA, and I even got one when scripting.
Do not compare your RP skills with me, by the way, I was one of the worse roleplayer in gemstone, but I do not try to lie about it :)

And that argument would hold some water if you gave examples. The reason you are giving both here and in the other thread is that Snowdrop is a child.
You're the kind of roleplayer I call: Opportunist. You play her as what you'd want 50% of the time. Rest is influenced by your immediate feeling toward the situation.
I dont profess to be the worlds greatest roleplayer...never have. I get pissed off with people who bully other people and I wont hide the fact that Snowdrop's temper comes from me. That having been said, I play Snowdrop how I want to play her 100% of the time. That doesnt mean I remember to keep her in character all the time, but as the person behind the character, she does what I tell her to do. The same as every one else with their character. Its how it is.
You play her as a child? BRAVO! You're mistaken a part of being a child though. Soulpieced estimated snowdrop's age in human as around 7-8 years old.
And Soulpieced is the font of all knowledge on Sylvan physiology? LOL.
I would reply to his claims, Prove it! Someone else wrote that the physiology of a sylvan ten year old was the same as a human ten year old. You ignore that post, or does it just not fit with your argument?
At the end of the day, it doesnt matter what you think. Its a make-believe world where people play all kinds of people, Elfs, hobbits, giants, even creatures from outer space. It's not real. If you asked your average run-of-the-mill person on the street what they thought about people who play the game in any way shape or form, they would say we're all mad. That its all fantasies gone too far. Im at a loss to see where it is any major concern of yours that Snowdrop is played as a ten year old.
Snowdrop is not a 7-8 years old person, maybe mentaly, but that would be with a problem of dedoublement of personalities.
Your third point mean 0 for me, as I was too, awared with RPA, and I even got one when scripting.
Do not compare your RP skills with me, by the way, I was one of the worse roleplayer in gemstone, but I do not try to lie about it :)
But you make yourself out to be the RPing guru of gemstone.
As I have said before, I dont profess to be the worlds greatest RPer. But I sure as hell know Im not the worst. In fact, you havent criticised my roleplaying, only the concept behind the character. Thats the screwed up part of your complaint.
In terms of whether it's viable for a ten year old to be adventuring...sure, the mechanics of gemstone set sylvans at a minimum age of 30. I wanted to do something different.
That arbitrary age of 30 is based upon the idea that people choose to leave their cozy homes and go adventuring. I wanted to play Snowdrop differently.
Whether it is something you like or not, it is the way I have chosen to play Snowdrop. Far from being the worst roleplay, its just an idea you dont like.
Thats fine, I dont expect everyone to like me, but get it into perspective...its a fantasy game. Its all fantasies gone to far.
Take your "booh" and stick it where the sun dont shine.

I did not say they are the same, I just stated I *personally* feel they would be the same. I view the age differences of the races as just a time matter, not a growth difference. *shrug* its just a personal thought, really.
While I do love the idea of being an "expert on all things elven", I am by far not.
Though I do have a theory on the "wondering need" elves are suposed to feel once they reach the ripe old age of friggin old.
They all wonder off to a "human" realm and live in trees, making cookies. :P

Which is precisely what all of it is. The point I was making is that Xcalibur was using one person's post as if that was the concrete evidence he needed to complete his argument. He didnt mention your post, which is as valid as the other. Not saying either are right or wrong, because its make-believe.:)
Hanksbane
02-17-2004, 05:29 AM
Nice thread you have going. Of course, I liked it better the first time when it was called RP Age.
Anyways, I'll state this again. You can not compare children in our (as in RL) world to children in a fantasy world. Hell, you can't even compare children in our medieval times to children in a fantasy world. Why? Simple. Unless I am missing something, children in medieval times never walked outside, took a stroll and ran into a forest troll.
Its all about environment. I'll use myself as an example. Lets say all of a sudden I find myself in the middle of a desert. As a guy who grew up in the city and suburbs, I don't know how long I would last out there. Now, put me side by side with a 10 year old who was born in that desert. Odds are, he vultures would be pickin on my eyeballs well before the 10 year olds. Why? because I'm pretty sure the 10 year old knows how to survive somewhat out there, because he grew up there.
Get it? No? How about this. Take a knight from our medieval era who is victorious in battle, knows no fear, defeated many a foe. Now stick that guy in GS and put him in front of a bunch of...say...ogre warriors. Think he'd survive? Odds are probably not. Stick a 20 train halfling warrior in the same situation. I bet the halfing would clean house.
If you want to use the argument that a 10 year old can not physically fight, I would point out that gnomes and halfings fight big creatures in GS all the time. Now yes, im sure mature halfings nd gnomes are strong for their size, but really, how much more stronger can they be? Also, I've seen halflings carry claids. Pyhsically possible, I think not yet we all accept it. A dwarf firing a longbow? Nope. The longbow would be quite a bit taller than a dwarf. Maybe the bow was handcrafted to be a longbow sized for the dwarf? Okay I can see that. But if the dwarf gives that longbow to an elf, would it be a short bow for the elf? Nope.
Now its really early in the morning for me (damned insomnia) so maybe those situations won't make sense to me in a few hours but here is something I know makes sense. None of you have ever, Ever, EVER, met a real life sylvan, so you can not say what a 10 year old wood elf can or can not do
Now as for Snowdrops RP of a 10 year old. She does RP it that way. Does she lose her temper? Yes. Do children lose their temper, yes! Good lord yes. Does she act maybe a little too mature for beinga 10 year old, sometimes, but like I said before. that has to do with the environment shes in.
There are loads more people who do not RP at all in this game. X, you yourself said you aren't a great RP'er, so dont critique other peoples RP unless you set an example yourself. I for one do not think that Snowdrop being 10 fits into the category of bad RP. I think that its a unique choice, and I applaud her for keeping it up as long as she has since there are many people out there who want to discredit her character both in game and out of game.

Ah ... but a 10 year old halfling or gnome is a different story all together isn't it? Adult halflings are trained in combat and/or magics just as any race. The training, in my estimation, begins with the youth.
The crux of the argument is maturity and mechanics.
The mechanics of the game do not allow 10 year olds to exist in character form.
The maturity aspect renders it impossible for a 10-year-old child of any offered race to survive combat. The strength is not there to draw a bow, wear armor, or partake in melee combat to any advantage.
Not only does she survive combat, she excels in it. About the only things a 10-year-old sylph would be able to do with mediocre abilities are hiding/stalking and stealing. However, when compared to their adult counterparts, they are but rank armatures with the advantage of not being the usual suspects.
You could argue that a 10 year old sylph wouldn't be suspected of carrying around a cross bow, but she would not be able to knock it with any efficiency, nor would she obtain the advantage of surprise for very long. After the advantage is lost, the child is dead or maimed.
She may RP very well, but she doesn't RP a good, let alone believable, character.
It's a poor argument no matter what comparisons you make. Children are poor combatant against seasoned adult vets.

Snowdrop, I won't give exemples, I don't need to, as MANY PEOPLE saw you. Your idea is unique BUT IT DOESN'T WORK.
Let me say it again but differently: Nice work, good idea, but you lack the knowledge and the consistent to do it fine.
If I would be playing and would saw you, I would see you as your profil says, a very young wood elf. That means 16-17 years old.

I repeat...my idea is not unique.
I can think of someone who was in Vaalor who plays a 6 year old (though talks like a 2 year old). I met someone in Icemule the other day who was saying she played a 3 year old, whilst stood around talking like a 30 year old. As I already said, I would not be as arrogant for one minute to claim to be the first to play a child, given the length of time people have been playing GS. For you to continually insist otherwise just shows your own ignorance.
Let me say it again but differently: Nice work, good idea, but you lack the knowledge and the consistent to do it fine.
See now I'm confused. Because it looks here as though you are saying it's a good idea, but I'm too thick to pull it off? Yet earlier in the thread, you were saying its a stupid idea and no matter what I do, I couldnt pull it off. Make your mind up.
If I would be playing and would saw you, I would see you as your profil says, a very young wood elf. That means 16-17 years old.
And that way of thinking rates right up there with Quishd in my Alcoven thread who used the Profile verb to draw conclusions about my character in-game. Your character cant read my profile.
Go pretend all you want, it would be that and I'm sure it is for many, as well.
Well that made no sense...but taking the first part of that statement..."go pretend all you want" Thats the idea ;)

An excellent example of a child in Elanthia is in Solhaven.
Seawilee...
Go and play with her a bit she is great.
She doesn't hunt or very very rarely with her large group of her surrogate parents.
She plays tag all the time...
She plays hide and seek...
And its just fun to interact with her when I don't feel like hunting.

I LOVE to watch her latch onto someones leg and be a pest.

Just to add to this, since i came back from GS, i've gotten 2 RPA's from 2 seperate GM's for simply assisting about a problem i had, in which both cases I WAS WRONG, LOL, so i would say getting an RPA doesnt mean shit, except the GM is favoring you for some reason at the current moment....
J.T.
The argument can go back and forth but the point remains she's gonna roleplay who she wants and how she wants. I say.. shut the fuck up and let her. X, you even admitted you arent the best roleplayer, that means you shouldnt be judging anyones abilities. Why do we care what she roleplays. I have seen adults roleplay adults and suck at it...

I have never had a problem with Snowdrop IG, and as far as I can tell her player seems cool too, I dont think her RP skills are the issue here I think its the mechanics of GS.
We had the same issue when someone who posts here played a halfling that was actually a kobold. She RPd it very well, but the fact is the charecter was a halfling, simple as that. Now with Snowdrop, she is playing a sylvan ten year old... Mechanics wise that is not possible in GS, so the charecter is not ten, again very simple.
However, gemstone is a fantasy roleplaying game that people play to escape reality for a while and indulge in fantasy. Snowdrops player has decided to RP a ten year old? Whats the big deal, its not reality its not having an adverse effect on anyone. No one has to interact with her if they dont want to.
Its just like Pattie or Barumples, some people loved them and just accepeted it and let them have their fun, some people hated it and avoided them...

Mechanics aren't 100% accurate either. Take my longbow example. A dwarf cannot fire a longbow in RL circumstances. Its too tall for him/her. A halfling cannot wear a giantmans armor and vice versa. We can travel across the continent in an hour. all that in RL isn't feasible. Yet we ALL suspend belief because of mechanics.
The mechanics of the game do not allow 10 year olds to exist in character form.
It isnt possible for a half elf to begin "adventuring" until hes 30. If I tried to RP one as a 20 year old due to mechanics, that shouldnt be allowed. But if I did, (and I do) most people accept it withour question.
The maturity aspect renders it impossible for a 10-year-old child of any offered race to survive combat. The strength is not there to draw a bow, wear armor, or partake in melee combat to any advantage.

There it is again. You assume you know the abilities of a sylph. You don't. None of us do. Unless you study real sylphs. Who is to say a 10 year old sylph can not be trained as well as an adult. Depends on her upbringing
You could argue that a 10 year old sylph wouldn't be suspected of carrying around a cross bow, but she would not be able to knock it with any efficiency, nor would she obtain the advantage of surprise for very long. After the advantage is lost, the child is dead or maimed.
See above argument
She may RP very well, but she doesn't RP a good, let alone believable, character.
I guess we just have to agree to disagree
It's a poor argument no matter what comparisons you make. Children are poor combatant against seasoned adult vets.
Not really. Snowdrop and one of my characters have been adventuring for about the same omount of years (from an RP point of view) She uses a light crossbow and a composite bow which really arent as hard to cock or draw as a heavy crossbow or longbow. So she is as trained as my archer is in regards to number of years in training. So that makes her as skilled as my archer who I guess you would put in the category of a "seasoned adult vet."
It really comes down to this. Some of you people do not agree with her choice, but thats what it is HER choice. You can argue about mechanics, but there are a lot of things we can do , that we shouldn't, regardless of mechanics. You can argue about the physicality of a 10 year old, but you really don't know what a 10 year old sylph is capable of.
So like I said before, those of us with opposite views will just have to disagree, and leave it at that.

Of course, this all goes without mention that people are taking OOC information as too what her age is. When you look at her, she is "very young". Your gathering information that is OOC to tell you her age range. Your PC should not know these things.
As for being too young? I know a 10 year old that lives in this town that can draw a short bow, and hit targets dead on at over 75 feet away. Its all about what the kids are into. *shrug*

The thing is, it's almost as though it's understood, so to speak, that all PC's are of adult age, same as knowing that none of the races give the ability to fly or have moving tails. It's very hard to roleplay with someone when you start off with a preconceived notion and then be told "no I'm 10". Ugh.. how do you respond to that? All this time you're speaking as though they are adult and they're not?
No it's not hurting anyone, but when confronted with that, it makes it hard to roleplay with. The same with changing races. You can't physically be a halfling and then expect people to agree with you being a kobold if you don't look or act like a kobold. You can't throw that boomerang of a change on someone and expect them to comply with it just because you had this desire to go against the grain of what is expected of player characters.
Playing a 10 year old, or saying you're really a rolton, or that you're a fairy, doesn't mean that in essence you're a bad roleplayer. It just means that that one aspect is something people won't agree on and won't acknowledge in your roleplay and consider you a little bit of a freak.
And believe me, an empath that I adore says she's a rolton. I don't even acknowledge that fact about her to not get into the whole "you're not a rolton" and ruin her fun. She's a great person, great friend and a joy to be around. But that one aspect, I ain't even touching.

CrystalTears I have to disagree with you there. In essence it makes it hard to roleplay with someone who is bad at roleplaying be it them roleplaying a child or an adult. Plain and simple. If she is roleplaying a 10 year old.... and has been for however long, and no one has complained till now.. how much has it really been hurting people that her character is 10? There is a guy named Squirrel who acts like a squirrel, talks like one if you want to call it that, but still interacts with people. I see it as a character flaw, and just that, cause when you stop to look at it hes funny, and Im sure he has fun with his character, so where's the harm?

Snowdrop, I won't give exemples, I don't need to, as MANY PEOPLE saw you. Your idea is unique BUT IT DOESN'T WORK.
Let me say it again but differently: Nice work, good idea, but you lack the knowledge and the consistent to do it fine.
If I would be playing and would saw you, I would see you as your profil says, a very young wood elf. That means 16-17 years old.
Go pretend all you want, it would be that and I'm sure it is for many, as well.
Considering you scripted loads, and even admitted here you didn't even bother trying to RP, I doubt the above has any value. And yeah, I do remember your character. Do they have the words boring, run-of-the-mil and pointless in your country?

They were too old for the scripts available.

If you want to prove i was a bad rper, don't try, I knew I were. I played sallazarre as I am and Silthar as I love to play (evil).
Fact is, she is the worse roleplayer ever. Remove "10 years old" with "child" and it would be... less... problematic.
Snowdrop, just shut my mouth by doing an assist and asking directly if it's allowed to play a 10 years old wood elf.

Heck. Seawilwee seems far too stupid for ten to me. She also speaks a lot worse than any ten year old I know.
If it's done reasonably, I don't have a problem with it. My favorite example of a young character in fantasy literature is probably Jimmy the Hand in Raymond Feist's work. All the children in George R.R. Martin's latest saga are also a good example....as is the young Matthew Broderick in Lady Hawk.
:played a feral child in a different game, fairly well he thinks, too..though more inspired by the Mad Max series than anything else:

You see? Here you were saying the idea is good...but a little beyond me. You started off by saying the idea was bad.
It couldnt happen in-game or in real life, I believe you said.
We seem to have come full circle... :shrug:
I notice you havent slagged off Seawilwee, who someone else mentioned. Same idea you see...child in Elanthia.
But maybe that's because you think the idea is shit, and maybe you think its my roleplay thats shit. Maybe its both, or maybe you wouldnt know good roleplay if it jumped up and bit you on the arse.
Your arguments are flawed. Your logic is shot to pieces. I truly dont give a toss what you think about my roleplay or my characters because you dont seem to know your arse from your elbow. :smilegrin:
Snowdrop, just shut my mouth by doing an assist and asking directly if it's allowed to play a 10 years old wood elf.

I was speaking about good roleplayers with their "flaw". It's a bit annoying to be roleplaying along with someone and then all of a sudden they say "I'm 10 years old" or "I'm a rolton" when nowhere in their roleplay was that ever hinted or implied. That doesn't make them bad roleplayers, per say, it's just information that you wouldn't pick up from an online text game unless it's said.
You have to give people boundaries to know where to go on. And eliminating children helps because you start with the illusion that they are at least adult and sentient. Once you start roleplaying children and animals, elements that are not allowed in the mechanics of the game, it starts to cause problems.
There is nothing wrong with coming here and posting your grievances over it. That's what we're here for. Just because other people haven't come HERE to post about someone playing a child doesn't mean that others don't feel that way, it just means that these boards haven't heard those comments.

IF she wants to be a 10 years old wood elf, go for it. Play it as it is, though. Put your stats as it is, also. I'm sure your strength is above 80, by the way.

[Edited on 17-2-04 by Xcalibur]
That is correct CrystalTears in applying only to yourself. What makes you think you have the right to set the standard on how someone roleplays or how you feel their roleplaying should be perceived? People create characters that, even if you dont see it, have intricate personality traits. Many times in game we have to let people know things about our character that are not otherwise implied from first glance. Thats just the merchanics of roleplaying as a whole.
Its okay to come here and state your grievences, Yes. But all Im saying is to at least have a valid one.
And I also believe that no one has complained before because no one really gave a rats ass when it came down to it. Like I said, sensible complaints I can see. Complaining because you dont like the way someone roleplay's or cause its not at the standard you set for yourself---get real.

Which completely screws your mechanics arguments because, as has been posted earlier in this thread, the minimum age mechanically for a sylvan is 30.
Now, I dont think the mechanics are especially important, because for me, the game is about having fun. Thats what I try and do with all my characters, regardless of some sap who think's he is the RP guru or whatever. So one of the characters I play is a child? So what. Thats up to me. Dont like it, dont interact with her. Easy innit?
Your arguments have gone round in circles. You contradict yourself with every post. I really dont care what you think of me or my characters. Get over it ;)

Yes I contradict myself, as I'm trying to get into your position and the other one and so on.
If I was doing a Bobmuhthol of myself, I would since long ago posted one line post with arguments 10 times badder.
Point is, I was speaking of teenage age as an HUMAN.
A wood elf can live up to what? 1000 years? If you do a simple rule of 3, it won't work at all.
We were speaking of that.
Your character is a bug, it doesn't work.
Mechanically as you said, you are not a teen, you're like 7 years old. That, my friend, is ridiculous if your stat are set as an adult and your skills are too.
There, something from rolemaster.
Rolemaster = former gemstone and gemstone 4 is still HEAVILY influenced by role master.
Level 0 = pre-teen to teenage years. Those years are your base and set your future "life" as an adventurer (profession and skills)
level1= first step into adulthood.
Elves are "immortal" but that...
Darkelf yeah, all is possible. But an assassin can be locked out if he is too good as an assassin. Policies makes gemstone a less possible game than possible.

C'mon, CT, this is just numb. What's the fascination to playing an elf? A wizard? A lhealer? The mechanics don't prevent playing a child any more than they prevent playing a homosexual or a tree-hugger.
And excuse me, but how many times have they changed the ages already? 2-3 times last year?

And about stat. Stats don't prove anything. I bet most of the GS population do not RP their stats 100%. How many have a very low influence? Do you RP that? Warriors (for the most part) have low mental stats. Do all of the RP that?
As for her being the worst roleplayer? Why because she Rps being something that you THINK can not work? This comin from a script hunter. Lots of weight there.

I can see how the roleplaying would interfere.. Most people of this time (or even present time) wouldn't listen to a kid talk about anything, let alone ever go hunting with them or voice their opinions about matters in game. Now this isn't a problem if this person roleplaying the kid realizes it and continues with the roleplaying.. it just gets complicated.

Age Range Description
20 to 25 1. appears to be extremely young
2. appears to be very young
3. appears to be immature
4. appears to be young and untried
5. appears to be of a tender age
6. appears to be youthful
80-??? 1. appears to be extremely old
2. appears to be decrepit with age
3. appears to be as old as the hills
4. appears to be wizened with age
5. appears to have one foot in the grave
So it's safe to say that the minimum acceptable age for a human is 20. AND AT 20 YOU LOOKS VERY YOUNG.
So, 20 = 20
10 = 6.666 at an human age. Ridiculous.

No, it's not. As a Sylvan, the lowest you can set your age at is 30. So therefore in GS, the lowest age you can be is 30. See? Works out great. See, thats you being all technical and un-fun. Don't set limitations to your imagination and maybe you too could roleplay a child :lol: just kidding but seriously, anything is possible with GS as far as your imagination is concerned. Thats where Im coming from. Nothing makes sense in GS, so why should we worry on the technalities of an age. Its just like not being born but magically appearing in a back alley or any number of things that happen that arent technically possible..

Just spank her, ground her and send her to her damn room. If she gives you lip remind her she is a CHILD and then spank her again. If she can't handle taking punishment from an adult she needs to give up on RP'ing a child.

Remember when you were 6 years and 2/3.
Try to see you with gear of around 150 pounds, a sword, a bow, and A BAD ASS ATTITUDE.
No thanks, sorry.
No one of that age could withstand the whole stress of anything she does in gs.
Fantaisies going too far:baa:
nods head in agreement.. with Anticore. A good ole spanking never hurt anyone.

Ah, the comparison comes back.
Was this a compound or recurve bow? Was the draw less than say ... 50-75 lbs?
How armored and fierce was that stationary foam target?
My 7-year-old girl can make 7 out of 10 free throws from the regulated free throw line. Does this mean she is NBA material? Clearly she has a higher percentage than 40 percent of the league.
Were we to take that 10 year old fledgling marksman, drop him on an open field with 70 lbs of leather armor, with that very same bow and tell him to drop a 250 lb man charging at him with an axe ... While wearing chain armor from head to toe... That 10-year-old boy would piss his pants and drop to a fetal position begging for his mother to come rescue him.
Or... he could fire and be accurate. Yet the arrow doesn't have enough force behind it to breach the armor of the charging combatant.
In the same breath; one can't justify the mechanics of a character simply because the mechanics of equipment.
My little girls have to ability to start my cars and turn on the computers. They can sit in either seat as easily as I. Therefore they should be accepted as legal drivers and software engineers, correct?
The mechanics of equipment exist for simplicity. Imagine the uproar of having to wait several days for your armor because it had to be tailored to fit you. Imagine the larger uproar from merchants because halfling sized armor isn't marketable to giantmen.
I'm sorry, but that is a halfling long sword sir. It's the same price as a dagger, because it is a dagger. Would you like to see our normal sized long swords? They cost ten times what I charge halflings.
It boils down to accepted limitations and boundaries.
A person can roll up a character and proceed to claim that character is actually a fetus able to survive outside of the mother's womb. This fetus has the power to destroy you with but a thought.
Everyone else sees Dincknob the gnomish sorcerer who appears very young and small for a gnome.
Judging from Dinknob's CS, we can assert that he is around 75 trainings.
Reality has not place in a RPG. A sense of reality must exist within it however.

That's the minimum.
You cannot go bellow. NO.

You can say what your character is or how you want your character to be perceived.. does it make it so, not always. Does it make what you say correct, not always, but you can say anything. Technically we cross the line when we create our own little reality that everyone else might not agree with. Thats the dilema and I see where your coming from but I dont see it as being a big deal at all.

Look, if the people who run Gemstone (GM's and such) wanted 10 year olds around, they'd make a fucking playground. Everything is set the way it is for a reason, 10 year olds could not go into combat and if they did, they would die almost EVERY time. Now, how many times has this "ten year old" gone into combat and came back alive...?
A combating 10 year old is not a viable RP because it cant/wont happen, this isn't Dragonball Z, her name isn't Trunks... 10 year olds are not a role play option in GS for a reason.

Gemstone is like a fucking playground. We got 13 year old's palying the game.. we expect them to behave as mature adults. Look at Bob's character profile.. one foot in the grave and he still hunts right? How? Having one foot in the grave as opposed to roleplaying a child who might have the same strength of that character who has one foot in the grave.

And at the same time, speaking from our Real histroy, the Monguls taught their young boys to fire bows at about age 5. And said boys where hunting for their family food at age 7 or 8. Training and teaching with a bow can build strength quickly. And who says she is wearing 70lbs of leather armor?

Firing at rabbits and such is different from firing at trolls, ogres, elementals, and people in armor. She also doesn't use the short composite bow monguls used, she uses a recurved long bow.

You can't prove anything because there is no way that you and your friend are going to be able to confront every single female character in the game and "prove" that half of them are male players. Even if a third of them are male players, probably half of those will lie and say they're female. So shaddap.
So ANYWAY... since I derailed that slightly to the point of nausea... I won't go out of my way in the game to say anything to a character if they're going against the grain with roleplaying decisions. However I'm allowed to complain about them here. And yeah, it WILL hurt me if it continues because it will ruin my fun if people follow the trend and I have to walk into TSC and see fifteen 10-year-olds whining and flailing like idiots.

Of course it's a number like that, as good statistician that I am. If i was thinking a bit about it...

I'd say around 27% (and a lot more as "locker characters and "zombies"). But that is with some thinking.

I had a stuff like that, and it completely sucked. It was giving me hard time (changing my words and such). But I'll try your advise.
Hanks: she's 6.6666 in human age. 10 years old as a wood elf can be confusing.

I know Bob, I'm not saying this for that, it's mainly for understanding. She is as mature, developped, in game, as a 6 2/3 years old human girl.

I play a 20 year old Half Elf. Even if 30 is the lowest I can go. Does that make me the worst roleplayer ever?
And once again, how do you know a 10 year old wood elf is comparible to a 6.66666666666666666666666666666666

You're 30 years old, that's all.
You pretend to be 20, but you're 30 if it's the lowest you can go.
You cannot go against the mechanic. You cannot be weighting 500 pounds if it says you're 300 pounds.
Yes, you are if you want, by the way, to be (worst roleplayer ever)
I'm just doing logical math, even if it surely doesn't "works"
If the lowest a human can go is 20 and the lowest a wood elf can go is 30, then she's 2/3 of the age she'd be in human age.
That's about it.

Where do you find the growth comparison between the races? Where is the documentaion? Are all Half-elves completely half and half? Mine isn't.
So lets take the focus off being 10 or 6.66 or 3. I have a 20 year old half elf. Mechanics-wise he is 30, but thats because I can't choose anything lower. I, however, RP him as a 20 year old. Am I wrong? Do I have to RP him as being older than his half-brother who is a human but was born a little before him because of mechanics?
Is that situation more palatable? There will be those of you that agree and those that disagree. Am I to change that just to appease the mechanics of the game? Well, Im not. Thats the way I envisioned him, thats the way hes staying.
Despite what X thinks. There is no right or wrong here. We havent proven that Snowdrop is wrong. There are opinions stating that she is, and there are those that say she isn't. And as far as I know, Snowdrop has indeed talked to the GM's about her RPing a child and they haven't made her change her RP.
Artha

Hanksbane, your argument is far from being the fair one you're implying it to be. You say nobody proved Snowdrop is wrong. Okay, that's true. You know what else? Nobody proved Snowdrop is right, so there goes any usefulness of that statement.
That being said, Snowdrop is indeed wrong.

GMs won't ever really tell you to change your RP because there really is no way to do that save of deleting or banning your character. They can't make you do or follow anything except to not be OOC. Rather sad I think.
I'm allowed to vent my disapproval of people playing children or animals or whatever. I have that right as much as the people have the right to play it. It's my opinion, and you're right, we haven't proven that it's wrong, simply because a GM won't say "you can't do that". Although they did say they won't do alterations to confirm that ideal.
I will say to Xcalibur though, that telling people to take this matter into the game by reporting her for what has been spoken here, bad roleplaying decision or not, is not anyone call's to make in the game, and thoroughly wrong. Make all your claims and opinions here. Leave them out of the game. Let people enjoy the game for God's sake. Taking it into the game is even more of a problem than anything she could be doing.

Okay. So if she were a teen it would be ok? So that in and of itself derails any mechanic argument you had. Hmm, I'll put it in simpler terms.
Because you say its alright to play a teen that means you are willing to forget the mechanics issue of not being able to choose an age between 13-19.
So with that said. Mechanics does not have anything to do with your arguement. Yes?
What we have left, are opinions. Opinions on a fictional race and opinions on how this fictional race can or can not hunt at any given age in a fictional world full of fictional characters and fictional creatures.
Im not gonna say you are right or wrong Xcalibur. You have your opinion. I have mine and Snowdrop has hers. Can we agree on that?

And basic math? What? Basic math does not apply to the development of different species. Life is a little more complex than that. Unless you show me an actual study on real elves. But they are fictional so you can't. Point is you don't know how elves, gnomes and the rest, develop over time.

You want the study? Age descriptions. At 30 years old, a Sylvan has the age description of a 20-year-old Human. They age at much different rates, but a 30-year-old and 20-year-old are basically the same in terms of maturity. Then compared a 10-year-old Sylph to a Human. 6 2/3 years old is the maturity equivalent.

Im not wrong about anything I have posted in this thread. I have a different point of view to some of the people that have posted here (CrystalTears, Harmnone and a couple of others). I respect their views, though I dont agree with them. Their arguments were sound and well constructed.
I take great pleasure in the fact that my views differ from yours...particularly since you decided to stick your head as far up Bob's backside as you possibly can. Youre a good match.
As for getting personal, this thread was taken from another thread and was completely personal throughout (on your part). You were not challenging a point of view, you were attacking me. Thats fine, I can take it. But dont expect me to sit back and suck it up. I wont.
"you are the worse roleplayer I ever saw"
"Fact is, she is the worse roleplayer ever"
"snowdrop, you are the worse roleplayer from ANY GAMES EVER MADE! "
"She is wrong, completely"
"You are wrong still. Bsing or not, you are wrong"
"I will ask all of my buddies on my aim list to report you based on your profil"
"But her's (hers) are WRONG"

So a general guide of age descriptors is your study? I don't buy it. Still doesnt show you what the early development of the different species are. Your argument would work if every species developed in a linear pattern. Growth rates aren't the same for all species, and aren't necessarily linear. Whos to say that a 15 year old human and a 15 year old elf are all that different? Maybe at 30 the elf aging process slows down. When humans hit puberty, the body undergoes a lot of changes. For example, some people grow a lot taller during this time, some don't. Whos to say when this occurs in elves, gnomes, halflings and what not?
You're probably hitting puberty now Bob, come back in a few years and show me that linear aging.

One of the many reasons for an unaccpetance of half elves in either culture has generally been they rate of maturity. They grow too fast for elves and too slowly for humans.
A ten year old sylvan would be like a preschooler.
I'd school that sylvan ';o)

Vonka might be young, but she's not played as a child, just as an innocent, and yes perhaps with childlike behavior.
Titania had someone, who was a skilled RPer, hang around her playing a child, which was stupid considering the lowest age at that time was within the 20s. I would just roll my eyes everytime she acted like a baby.
I tried once to pretend I was the child of two good friends, but when some bitch whispered in my ear that it was ridiculous to play a 5-year-old, it ruined any fun we were having.

We.. we... "we" could be all the boys, or us of the winning team against her (bob, latrin and I), or all the people from north america, or..
I should define my we, though, you're right.
Next time!

He doesn't understand half of what he says and nothing of what he posts.
You didn't miss anything, X did.

Yes I have heard of winning teams, and yes they do rock. However, there are no winning teams in this thread.

Man, that's one of the "last refuges of the unclear" tag lines. Yeah, it isn't free-form; Klingons and Godzillas don't exist in Gemstone. But children do. We see items based around them and NPC kids all the time. Break the law and it's a small child who screams or a mother who yanks one away.
Just because you don't want someone to play something doesn't mean it shouldn't exist.
Try to see you with gear of around 150 pounds, a sword, a bow, and A BAD ASS ATTITUDE.
I'd like to see YOU tote 150 lbs of gear and do much of anything at all, let alone fight, guy. I'll give you a hint. Take the nearest backpack and stuff it with books. Put on a chainmail hauberk and a coif. Wear army boots. Grab a broadsword and the biggest shield you can. Dangle a gallon jug of water off your belt. See if you can run around the block. (See if you can WALK around the block without blowing hard.) Congratulations: you're humping about 90 lbs.
Look, if the people who run Gemstone (GM's and such) wanted 10 year olds around, they'd make a fucking playground.
They did. It's called the Solhaven petting zoo. Next?

There's no debate.
Then why the fuck are you still talking? You made what, about seven hundred posts saying "Mechanics say no! Mechanics say no! Mechanics say no! Mechanics say no! Mechanics say no! Mechanics say no!"
Give it a fucking rest unless you got something new to say.
And never mind that. I expect each and every one of you to back realism up in every way in Gemstone, since you're fired up about realism realism realism here.
(Which ain't realistic. There was a 13 year old girl archer on her OLYMPIC archery team Olympiad before last, and I'm pissed that I didn't remember it before now.)

This is using my halfling character.
You put a longsword in your wrist sheath.

So in this case....
