Generation Legacy: Part Three

Amazing. I bet some people were already going through withdrawal though.

It surely interrupted my constant nightly bouts of hitting reload waiting for a new post to come up on this thread.

Okay, looks like despite my attempts to make it otherwise, this game and my tabletop DnD game are both ready to start. I, however, am not, on either account.

We'll get her underway early next week (I'm looking at you, Tuesday). Sorry, that's what I get for starting two games at the same time.

No problems, we just need to make sure we are all ready by then. Has anyone seen Sollir lately? I think he is the only one missing from the Dramatis Persona(this better than rogues gallery?) thread.

I prefer to think of it as a wretched hive of angst and immaturity.

Hey there *waves*. I'm around and interested. I'm at my sister's place in Phoenix until Wednesday night and my internet time is limited, I've been following with this and figured not posting Cody/Raph wouldn't hurt much 'til EN2. I'll get on that on the double! Question-where do you guys go to find pics for your characters? I have a fine time imagining stuff but finding visual representations, not so much

I might have trouble posting late Tuesday through late Wednesday night because I'll be flying home then, after that everything should be golden!

I didn't find one this time around. When I did last time it's because the first thing I decided about Mark was that he'd look like Conner from Angel. Then Google did the rest.

Going the other way is much harder. Searches so broad as "Chinese teenager" didn't get me much except a lot of pictures of naked women. Specifying the male gender gave me even more pictures of naked women. Perplexing. Searching for surfers gave me a lot of pictures of people that amounted to outlines against waves, but no naked women. I count that as progress. So I switched to Jerry's other sport and didn't find much under swimming either.

Then while typing this I decided to give up and settle for within the same ballpark. Jerry's a looker, so I ran a search on Chinese male models. Jerry's a fair bit better built than this fellow appears to be (he looks much closer to Mark's body type, actually), but the face is pretty close. This is all strictly pre-powers, of course.

Victim: Mark was Connor from Angel, huh? How did you go without punching him?

Man that was an annoying character.

Some similar themes, but mostly the appearance. Mark's actions have more to do with things I've read about addiction and broken homes. I played a character that looked quite different and didn't have the squeaky-clean aspirations and repressed memory innocence but shared most of the backstory a few years before Conner fell out of the a tear in reality.

Four reasons I didn't punch him:

1) I actually got into the show right at the point of his introduction and had a lot of sympathy for him. So he wasn't taking up somebody else's screentime for me. I more watched the show as Conner: The Vampire Slayer than Angel: The Series.

2) Vincent Kartheiser is an extremely hot man.

3) I just plain like confused, abused, and manipulated characters. I never wanted to punch Shinji Ikari either, so clearly I have a very high tolerance for that sort of thing.

4) Vincent Kartheiser is an extremely hot man.

Actually, I was wondering how Hammerhead went without having Ryan punch him.

I think it was a less matter of Connor stealing screentime away from other characters and more with him being a disadvantage to the other characters. "Okay, I'll take the baby from this plot as a DNPC. And while people might be coming after him since vampires aren't supposed to have kids, it's not like the baby will get into much trouble on his own..."
