[Meta Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

(...) On a completely seperate topic, I've got an interesting thought for all you to ponder: concerning Iron's Campaign, what other Characters did you have lined up to participate into it (or any ideas for such if you never had any pre-planned)? Been re-reading parts of it recently, and now in days Vens portions of it struck me as with a strange sense of 'wait, what?'  whenever he did....well, virtually anything after the relatively smooth sailing and tolerate experience we all had with Terra. I DID deliberately design the big lad to be the polar opposite of Ven in almost every way that counted and to be more in line with the overall design of the campaign, but it's still surprising to see how much my approach IC changed with him.

Oh boi, that'd be something very very...interesting in both a positive and negative way if Ventus' own mother would join us all later on after Terra would leave. I can't deny that I honestly would enjoy it greatly to see her and how she plays out- both outta-chara due to her warped fairy-characteristics and because I'm curious how she and her mechanics would be in a battle; and in-chara via Shiva because fairies! and magic!!~ And because of her connection to Ven himself, I feel Shiva would relatively quickly notice very obviously that there must be a relation between these two (because yes, Ven DID show her his family album at some point and him opening up to her about his traumatic past had too much of an emotional impact on her to not connect the dots). ...Oh the emotional chaos it would enduce, but at the same time I feel it'd be fun to rp!

On the point of alternative characters for Skull Ruins - I had none designed/did not came up with any (^v^; ) Shiva as a playable chara was the first idea I came up with, and in the first draft she didn't have much of an interesting or specific background aside from prefering Fairy Types and wanting to be seen +noticed despite being very introverted. Most of it was developed and thought of along the way and planned ahead relatively short-term, mix-and-matched into the background depending on what I liked or found interesting to add/rp out, and inspired by watever Pokemon we encountered and she caught or befriended.

I just had a rather jarring experience. Just turned on my 1400$ laptop (its a ROG Strix) and it said the Recycle Bin was corrupt. Fortunately one manual reboot and automated disc fix later, all was good. (...)

This is a massive mood, am very glad that you managed to work the issue out.
