My saga wasn't a show or competition.

I agree with Trafford; I prefer storyline sagas set in the 'real' world of our fiction. Not to say DA or w/e is bad. Just... you know.

I believe Trafford said he wanted variety. He didn't actually state a preference to storyline sagas over competitive sagas.

Does honesty earn respect or inspire revenge? Is it smarter to attack the strong or annihilate the weak?

I might have a talk with some staffers, but what I've got planned is pretty much a storyline saga like Prophecy's Child, although with no reference to it whatsoever, just the same style. Ultimately, though, I'd probably want to try it without eliminating people so that everyone's character could be a part of the saga.

EDIT: But none's on my AIM. sadface

CC was pretty awesome because it was more in the vein of an actual Dragonball Z saga, only better written. "Here be super powered aliens out to destroy your shit, kick they ass." It even had the escalation of the villain beyond the initial encounter, finding a group opposing, teaming up with them, and kicking keisters in space.

We need more well-run sagas like that.

There were also no rewards for Juno's saga to my knowledge, nor a competitive conclusion.

You could party up with Sparrow and I if you could find something a street entertainer could do with a smuggler and a freelancer. We're going to each need some zeni to travel to another planet. And need to stick with the professions for job leveling.

Juno's saga was a player saga, not an actual saga, although I can empathize with your the latter statement.

Quite honestly, I don't want something anytime soon. I'd like to RP with Sage unobstructed by a looming Saga and possibly sneak in some major character development things.

I want my favorite duo to be ready for the next Saga.

Even if there is a saga, you don't have to join it.

Yeah, but the point was that I want to.

That would be something to be determined at the end of a saga.

Something to take into consideration is that people get XP just for RPing and sagas provide for periods of increased activity. Personally, and I'm not saying this "officially," I think active players in sagas reward themselves.

Meer, I appreciate your delightful comments. Now shut up, please.

Anyhow, yeah, my saga kind of fizzled and failed. =P Ah, well. I'm up for anything.

I'm thinking of doing a char switch to something with a more malleable story, an operative for the changeling empire or something similar. Fire and Water Ki, depending on answers to questions I'll ask eventually. I'd be up for doing something with someone then.
