Which species from dmfa would you like to be?

[Gamma]

I still just want to be a Warp-Aci so I can teleport someone above a volcano and watch them fall in.

[Damaris]

Alright.

This thread is probably a bit shorter then the last time it was visited.  Discussion got a bit heated, and over the top.  People were extremely rude.  Other people were extremely distracted.

In order to preserve the actual discussion that was going on quite happily prior to that, I've split off the other thread, and moved it to the Mine.  Feel free to go read the fighting there.

Additionally, I noticed a few things.  I will also be posting a reminder in the rules thread, so that no one has an excuse for not seeing this.  Additionally, I suggest that members read over the rules one more time, to make sure they are up to date.  A few things to note:

    1) "Nitpicking" is highly discouraged in the DMFA forum.  It discourages people from
         posting, and makes the posting atmosphere extremely negative.  When the mods
         would rather clean the bathroom then read the forum, somethings off.

    2) Although we appreciate the sentiment, please do not correct other posters.  That's
        what we're around for.  We have a fairly large moderation staff for a reason.  If you
        feel you must do something, PM us here on the forum, IM us on AIM or Yahoo, use the
        "report a post" function, etc.  Additionally, you can refrain from feeding the trolls. 
        That's really what they want, in the end.  If you ignore them, its no fun.

    3) I know people won't always get along, but do try to be civil guys.  This is the PG
        section, and it should be treated as such.

That's all for now, enjoy your regularly scheduled thread.

Also, I'm giving a 48 hour ban to anyone who tries to start the discussion on humans or "cubi- good or evil" again.  If you have any questions, PM me.  I'm around this weekend.

Right, back on topic, after a little thought, i can handle being somewhat angelic.. i can deal with being the magnificent bastard type, yet being seen as a paragon of all that's good and wholesome.. 

[Sunblink]

Thank god this is back on topic. Anywaaaaay...

As a bit of an addendum to my first relevant post, I'd have to say that if Keaton wasn't, at the moment, my avatar, I'd be a Plumed Basilisk. Resembling the males, yes. Because they have the wonky head-crests.

I just don't know what race, in particular. Probably a Dragon or just a Being.

[Brunhidden]

for a moment i thought that was the wildly inappropriate 'jesus lizard', which for some reason i was thinking about earlier today.

and now i wonder if there is a jesus fish or jesus bird which would be more appropriate.

and then i realise i am drunk and have not slept for nearly two days

i should write more when drunk and sleep deprived, its fun for me and probably hurts to look at

[rocket_red1]

Dear god, my eyes... my poor useless eyes!
But seriusly, thx for getting us back on topic, it was starting to irritate me.  Well, lets see if someone can find a race that hasn't been said yet...

[Don]

Personally id like Fae or cubi, their vast abilities and lifespan give so many possibilities, though if it came down to it, id be happy as just a normal being.

[Tarkya]

Human.

Although seriously, if I were to be some species other than what I actually am, probably a Were. They don't go around parading who they are, but they're stronger than beings and have magic to boot. Shapeshifting is kind of a bonus, but that would kind of reveal what you are.

Animal species? Komodo dragon. Nothing like a stupidly giant lizard to chomp down on your enemies.

[Ragesquid]

Much as I love cats, foxes, and lizards....it would seem as though I'd just be blending in with the crowd if I chose any of the three. I'd honestly love to be an Angel fennec or water dragon. Though..a ring-tailed lemur Cubi would be fun, too. I mean..really. STRIPED WINGIES!! o=

[Lucheek]

Azlan, I'm still going to have to say I would choose Fae.

However, my Avatar/Fursona is, and will always be, a being.

Has anybody said Pheonix yet?

[silentassassin]

Has anybody said Pheonix yet?

Hmmmmmmmmm i wonder if there could be a pheonix mow?

[Lucheek]

You mean a fireball?

[Gamma]

A cute little invincible fireball with antenna. I suggest you refrain from thwacking it, lest it go nuclear on your ass.

[Jer-oh-me]

Perfectly normal Squirrel, in the same way Wildy's a perfectly normal Ferret.

Ever seen something that hyperactive running with a lit M80, grinning like a maniac? No? Well that's what I mean.

[Jer-oh-me]

Yes, I am implying that I like things that go "BOOM!"

>BOOM!<

[Alterationartist]

Ahahahahahhah! You're kidding me, right? Like this type of question needs to be asked?
...
Waitaminute... Wrong place. People don't know (or possibly care) about me. I guess it does have to be asked in case I haven't made it obvious already.

Dragon.

Yep. There it is. And especially in the case of DMFA. Due to these quotes from the Demonology page on dragons.

"57,822, Balorie is considered a very young dragon" - My kind of lifespan!
"The dragon race is likely one of the oldest and most powerful races in the land of Furrae." - Instant plus.
"Dragons are powerful, smart, and unfortunately in most cases, very aware of that fact." - Forget "unfortunately"
"Dragons have quite a few strengths. Powerful magic plus the ancient knowledge of how to wield it combined with their own bodies natural defense... a dragon could easily take on an army of beings and even a few creature forces if it so chose" - One word: Score!
"As far as physical weaknesses go, dragons have none" - Double Score! (albeit it goes further, but still)
"However due to their egos, most of them have a weakness against games and riddles." - You know me all too well!
"Also most dragons due to their age get eccentricities about collecting (or hoarding) certain items. If someone has an object a dragon desires, they almost always have a distinct advantage." - Like I couldn't just TAKE what I want?

Heck, if this counted half-breeds, I would push some Cubi into the mix. Just because I'm that big of a sucker for power.

[silentassassin]

Okay that would be intresting. But you'd probably have the cubi or dragon dna crush one ending with a dragon or cubi.

[Turnsky]

neither would happen though, with the exception of pyroduck, i get the feeling that Cubi and Dragons get on about as well as hammers and nitroglycerin.

[silentassassin]

Well they might i mean hey anything is possible in the insane world amber's created.

[Jer-oh-me]

I thought Amber had established that Pyroduck is by far the exception and not the partial rule. After all, it seemed as though Abel's reaction to him without Pyroduck being identified by Fa'lina for him to not be all hate hate hate on. Of course at this point Abel still will hate Pyroduck, just more in the way Dan hates Abel.

[Goatmon]

Phoenix, of course.

[Jer-oh-me]

Phoenix, of course.

Just not an oracle, right?

Boy, don't make me repeat myself.

I didn't realize you'd be repeating yourself.

[aserath]

This may not be very original but I would totally be a cubi. Awesome mind powers, magic, not needing to eat all totally awesome. I think it would be fun to go dreamsurfing WOOT!

[Jairus]

Hey, at least you mentioned dreamsurfing. TOAST!!!

Incidentally, welcome aboard, aserath.

[aserath]

Well thanks I've actually been a long time fan of DMFA but I never thought anything about joining the forums till now.

Whatever people may say about 'Cubi being overused, you have to admit they have enormous potential in terms of writing scope.

Anyway, welcome to the forums.  Read the rules, follow them, do not annoy the moderators and so on.  Basic common sense stuff.  Apart from that, enjoy your stay.

Oh, come on. At least once, advise one of the poor sods to annoy the mods, just to make it fun for us...

Boxy, I think that there are enough annoying people on the forums as it is (he says without a trace of irony), so we don't need to encourage it.
