"You require a key to enter the gate. The gate is easy to find, it is where men no longer worship for the spirit of nature has stolen it from your kind." -Ryu-jin
After Yu and his companions discovered the location of the Lady of Spiders deep within the bamboo forest, they claimed the key that would help them reach the spirit world. However, they are now at an impasse: where exactly is the gate?
This is the OOC Thready for Part 2 of Tears of a Fox's Heart.
After concluding Part 1, which spanned two months in real world time, please share your critique with the adventure. Did it move too fast? Did it move too slow? Share all your thoughts and concerns. Additionally, this is also an interest check for participating in Part 2 as we lost several players.
Who is ready to move on to Part 2? Or would you like a brief respite to role play in Katashima with these events now a part of your character's recent history? Its possible significant events are happpening in the greater metaplot that may interest you interacting throughout Katashima.

On an assignment
Roleplay posts: 68
Age: 38
Physical Description: The ronin is built heavily, his weight apparent by his earth-shaking steps. His green, foggy eyes are always fixed to whatever is in right of him, making him an intimidating person to talk to. A deep scar runs from his chin to his right ear, partially being covered by his messy, dark hair. The index finger of his right hand has been cut.
Clothes and Equipment: His clothes are unconventional to these parts of Katashima: A heavy fur cloak, Tied with a woollen sash, much like how most people tie their kimonos.
He carries around a traditional bokken, a wooden training sword. His main method of attacking uses coins, three sacred oils, and a style of fighting he developed that utilises the feet as well as the blade.
He sometimes uses a black, lotus-patterned kimono with a gray obi, whenever he needs to visit a court or high society. Then he would also tie his hair back to a chonmage, making his scar more apparent than ever.

There was a long period of time where we were just contemplating who was supposed to go to the cave. That might be why it took so long. I aim for at least one post per day, but sometimes it gets confusing as to whose turn is it.
But yeah. I thoroughly enjoyed Part 1. I feel like I have more of a grasp on my character now. Personally, I'd like to continue as soon as possible, but if others would like to take a break, that's fine too. Maybe I'll crash a wedding...
So how many are there left? Me, Ruby, Kazue? What's the situation of Rono and Kasumi?
(Ps. How about "Part 2: Battle Tenacity"?)

I'd prefer to continue. Ruby's a foreigner, so she isn't part of the politics of Katashima. The first part was good, though. Bickering is fun.

Eve Lithian
Established
Roleplay posts: 20
Age: 100
Physical Description: Eve stands at the short height of 5 feet exactly. She has long curly scarlet hair and large amber eyes that stand out the most on her small face. She has very slender arms, yet her thighs are rather wide, giving her an almost pear shape despite her average bust.
As a Dragon Trainer, Eve owns a red, female drake(baby dragon)named Stiria. Stiria is only about 1 year, and is only about 3 feet long from the tip of her noes to the end of her scaly tail.
Clothes and Equipment: Eve usually wears her armor, and when she isn't she usually wears a pair of leather pants with a cropped, long sleeved blouse. She also has a favorite pair of leather boots she often wears.
As far as weapons go, she has her pet dragon Stiria, though she is still a hatchling. Eve is also very well trained in the arts of swordsmanship, favoring one handed blades as she is very agile and can move around quickly to strike her enemies.
Stiria can not yet blow any real amount of fire, though she is working on it. She cannot fly, but is an excellent climber and can glide gracefully down from trees where she catches birds. She does have razor sharp, 4 inch long teeth all throughout her mouth that can quickly tare out a person's throat.
Player's online availability : At least once a day, if not every other day. (but most likely for a good period of time everyday)

Is it possible for a new character to join? I could either read up on the past events, or go on not knowing anything as my character would.

Hey, I'm still around. I just lost track of the quest when I was figuring things out for Titania and the Evil group. I am willing to continue and vow my support.
I have to agree that going into the cave was by far the most complicated part unfortunately. I feel that the quest/plot moved smoothly, but did not leave too much room for inter-party relationships. The only stable throughout was the fact that Ruby and Kasumi dislike each other.
I personally would like a place or time for the characters to get together and mingle with drinking or just partying, so they can all get to know each other a little more or we can take the next part a little slower.
Either way is okay with me.
