Lynora, if you want I can make up some aliases to assist in the dabate. Just give me an idea of what you want for characters.
I'm pretty sure her father will stay out of things. He's occupied by business, as usual. (His name is Nerion.)
Her brother, Joren, is a cleric of Aventurnus and a royal pain in the ass. Think Nathan Petrelli. Scheming, political, always thinks he's doing the best thing for everybody regardless of the facts.And her mother, Melusine, is the High Priestess of the very powerful church of Aventurnus. She's kinda a cross between Angela Petrelli and Atia from the Rome TV series.
Edit: And thank you for offering.

No problem. I'll do Joren if you want. I can RP self-righteous prig pretty well LOL
Thank you, Mother.
What shall we do with these? She juggles two black orbs.
Hmmm...I don't know. A zombie? No. Perhaps something else? Like father, like son?
When we tire of playing...
OK, I made up Joren. Any particular past history you want him to access just post it here and I will work it into the dialog.
Charles sorry about tardy posting on the Grove thread, I totally missed it earlier.
Charles, so Auruns took the stars with him to the Realm of Dreams?
Man, Arielle is going to end up there sooner than I thought...
<twitches antennae forlornly>
Charles, so Auruns took the stars with him to the Realm of Dreams?
Man, Arielle is going to end up there sooner than I thought...He took some stars with him, but nobody seems to have been around in the Oasis at that time to see him go (except for maybe Spotty the Rust-Monster).
Eh, I was just referring to the fact that there's another location already picked clean which decreases the amount of time Arielle spends on the star hunt before she's forced to go to the Realm of Dreams because it's the only place left to look.
...The Grey Wanderer's minions are also uninterested in collecting any of them except for the one which frustratingly their little compasses and pendulums won't give them a reading on, and will leave any others they come across behind.
Oops.
Giggles.
Most of LJ's divine power is residing in Arielle at the moment. Not that she can use it. She's just a baby, even if she does look ten years old. But she basically can hear a sort of resonance when she gets close to pieces of mommy, so she just sort of hones in on them without really understanding how she does it. So she basically just wanders around until she gets close enough to a star to hear the resonance.
Hey, someone has to have fun messing with them.
Edit:
The Grey Wanderer's minions, I mean.
The more pieces Arielle has the easier it gets for her to hear the resonance of other pieces. In otherwards, her range increases dramatically. Since all the pieces want to be put back together, there is a sort of pull between them.
Is every last eyelash and strand of hair necessary?
It doesn't quite work like that. The pieces don't always exactly match up to body parts. Before she was scattered by the Night Dragon's interference, LJ had discorporated into the form of a swirling spiral galaxy. Every single star is necessary to recreate that form. Without recreating that form she can't recreate her physical form. So yes, every last piece is necessary.

Already I had posted that a couple of craftsmen at the bazaar were incorporating stars into magic items, and I was thinking that there could be interesting dilemmas down the road if one has been beaten into a pruning hook which is currently turning the tide on a disease & insect afflicted farm.
The pieces are like diamonds, and trying to beat one or cut one would give a very, very nasty shock. They can be attached to something, but not altered. Unless they are hit with a whole bunch of negative energy and smash one, in which case LJ is dead and that's the end of it.

Yep. Congratulations, Dad, you've got a daughter. :)
Basically, LJ didn't know she was pregnant when she died, and her power went to Arielle being so kind as to create a body for the girl so she wouldn't die.

What does respectable mean, Daddy? she says looking up at you with her big, innocent, green eyes.

Around her at the very least, yes.

But, on the bright side, when she's older you have my blessing to scare the snot out of any boys who want to date her ;)
You guys realize that the roleplaying has been going on for over 3 months? That's about a 100 days!
This plot has advanced a lot. Time was, it was just me and some Jacks, and it was weak. It really started with the Defectives, and then the Kittens, and then Lynora came. The Goddess plot was the first real story arc. Then more came, with the return of Candle Lighter (who was originally made just to joke around about Vomit Guy's 'death'), the arrival of more people, and finally it became so big that we had to create this thread just for OOC stuff.
My only regret is the death of a few good OTD threads. The Jacks' place nearly died, the Frogs' did. Regrettably, part of this is probably because of the RPing. Some of it may also be because, after the new RP Jack Clubhouse was made, the RPers felt like they should stop posting with their aliases on the other original 'funny RP' threads.
All the same, we've lasted a while, and we've done pretty well. We've created something which could easilly be made into a novel.
Just want to say, 'great work all'. The story isn't as much about me anymore. Indeed, my characters are bordering on minor, a fact which I don't really mind. My time's past. Whippersnappers.
Hmm. I need a 'cranky old guy' alias.
100 days? No wonder I'm tired. ;)
I still post in the Jack's thread, but I do keep the RP out of it. The Jacks could use an influx of thieves and peasants. Just to make sure they're awake. ;)

I've started to post there a little bit lately, but honestly even playing to the old persona it still feels kinda uncomfortable. Probably just me.

Nope, it's not just you. :(
I've had to change/limit Jack Hammer's personality to avoid giving offense.
