Metropolis - The Weight of the World (and Found Wanting)

[Phoenix]

[sblock=Pheonix]Yeah, I caught a little tidbit elsewhere unintentionaly. Figured I'd pass that on, and you can let me know what works best. It was supposed to be her real name, but it can be what she uses as her real name, not knowing that Jasmine is realy her real name (it sounds more like a pet name to someone in "adult" entertainment)[/sblock]

[sblock=Bront]You know, this may get confusing, let's clear this up.

1. When you were young, mummy and daddy did not give you the name Jasmine.
2. I'm pretty sure I don't know what your real name is, but I'm half sure Jen isn't it.
3. Jasmine is a street name given to you, or adopted by yourself.

Am I right?[/sblock]

[sblock=Pheonix]1) Jenny Paige was the name I always had listed for her (It's still there, highlight the name line on her sheet. However...
A) That need not be the name her parents gave her, she was fairly young (I envisioned her at 8-10 when she was orphaned), and been traumatized enough to potentialy not remember the name she was given then, so perhaps it was just a name she picked up as her own, even if it's not. "Jen" is then technicaly a name she would go by, but rare enough that Riki wouldn't even know.
B) Jasmine was the name she was given when she was being pimped out as a "little woman", and she kept it when she was sold.
c) She continues to go by Jasmine because of the Rep she made with it.
D) I got the name from Jenny (A term for a lady of ill repute) and Betty Paige (the old poster girl)

E) I had intended it to be her real name, but given I never told you about it (I figured you might figure it out), and it's not realy important, i'll bow to whatever is easiest for you [/sblock]

[sblock=Bront]Wow, all this over a name...i missed the bit with her real naem

a) When you had 'orphaned young' I imagined some tragedy in the first few years of life, not that it truely matters this point. You history will stand up to my evil machinations easily here, no need to change or compromise.
b) Yup, yup.
c) That's cool, all my NPCs know you as Jasmine.
d) Betty Paige rocks, I dig it. If only I could see a picture of the fantasy version of her...might need to search the Heavy Metal sights for that one
e) Everything still works, as long as you and I know where we stand. If anything confusing or conflicting comes up, you know where I stand.

...now back to those Betty Paige pics...[/sblock]

[sblock=Pheonix]Yeah, I imagined it being young, then I noticed I mentioned adolecence on her sheet. I can fix that, since we both are looking more towards the same thing, so Jenny Paige is either the:
A) Real Name
B) "Real Name" given to her by the dwarves when she was told to use Jasmine instead. (meaning it was likely ment as a joke and insult, which works)
C) Her other Alias when she doesn't want to use Jasmine (which is rare).

Let me know which one works best for you, because i can see all three, and it doesn't change anything on my end.

And meanwhile, no pics for me at work.[/sblock]

[sblock=Bront]It works as her real name, no problems on this side. Like I said, just clearing this all up.

Jenny Paige - name parents gave her before they died of the cornflake plague of '68
Jasmine - the name young men scream as they throw coppers on to the stage for her[/sblock]

Didn't I mention in the last game Jovick was supposed to die and become a spectral character? That didn't work did it...a few things have happened like that already...
