So Hi, I'm interested in Sailor Mars. Interested in playing him as a male. So far, it all looks great but I gotta say I'm a little confused on everything. I'd like to make sure I do it right when I do the application, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome aboard, Mooshu. Woot! Another male senshi!!
We like to let our players be as creative as they want with their characters, so we're pretty laid back in what we let go. But I totally appreciate you wanting to do it right! What questions do you have? Linna, Steph and I will do our best to answer them!

Aww, well, you're welcome. I'm gonna round up how to ask the questions I need to ask then post them here. That way nothing sounds like terrible gibberish.

Very good. If I do not get a chance to see or review them tonight, Linna and Steph will surely be able to answer in the morning.
P.S. Don't forget to introduce yourself in the Meet The Player's thread ;D

OMG A NEW PERSON! ♥
I sent you a response, and I can't wait to see what you come up with. Don't be shy about questions. I know that a lot of this stuff might be confusing, it made a lot of sense in my head when eko and I came up with all this stuff. Unfortunately not everything comes out making sense when i need to get it -out- of my head. >_>
And hurray for male senshi! We never can have enough.

Thank you, Toby. :3 and Hi Linna! Oh, don't worry about that. It all looks well thought out and wonderful, besides if you didn't go ahead and just put it out there. Totally wouldn't be here. So questions are good. Okay... here's the uh first set. Do male senshi need fukus? Do male senshi transform into a female fuku? How much creation do I have over the planet mars? Is there something to read on all planets created so far? How much should I know about the mythology represented? [it's all good, just tell me exactly what I should be looking into and I will. ] Does Sailor Mars need to be the prince of the planet? If so, is it alright if he was 'robbed' of the title, and has no clue about this. He infact had been living as a orphaned child.

I'm glad you like it, Tobes and I are quite proud of everything so far! ^_^ Do male senshi need fukus? Fukus in the female sense, no. But they do need a uniform. The actual uniform is something Toby and I are still working on, so if you want to do just your basic colors at first that's fine until I put up the male uniform. Do male senshi transform into a female fuku? Nope, male senshi remain male, unlike the Starlights. How much creation do I have over the planet mars? Absolute! If you check out the other senshi profiles you'll see that everyone has shaped their planet however they want, created hot spots of popular interest that would be good settings for interactions, and the life styles of the inhabitants. So if you wish for Mars to have been terraformed with an artificial atmosphere controller, then go for it. ^_^ Is there something to read on all planets created so far? Planet information is located in the corresponding senshi profile. How much should I know about the mythology represented? [it's all good, just tell me exactly what I should be looking into and I will. ] Basically our mythology is the canon series. The more you know about that the easier it will be to follow the subtle details. Steph and I pretty much came up with our own myth for Earth & the Golden Kingdom. If you want Mars to have it's own myth about the original Sailor Mars you're more then welcome to write it up! Just let us know so we can make sure details line up with the established tales so far. Does Sailor Mars need to be the prince of the planet? If so, is it alright if he was 'robbed' of the title, and has no clue about this. He infact had been living as a orphaned child. In the cannon all the senshi were basically the princesses of their planets, so yes, Mars would be the Prince, but still part of the Royal Court of Moon once Moon comes into play. As far as the title being robbed, I don't see why not. So like, for instance, as Mars he is the actual born and natural leader, but if there's a government system set up that is more of a monarchy then naturally his title would have been "revoked" as there is already an established King/Prince/Queen whatever. So one of his personal challenges would be to claim rule over Mars. Does that make sense?

Dudette, you're quick. Thank you, I understood all of that. I thought as much, I'm gonna go read all your stuff. And I'm actually glad the guys don't need to wear a skirted uniform, I saw that Tuxedo Kamon picture, it was hilarious.

I'm fairly bored at work today. >_> And exhausted.
Glad I could help, and yeah... was that picture not the most disturbing thing ever or what?! I laughed so hard I snorted my soda!
Oh, and what would you prefer to be called? Just Moo? I'll answer to Linna, Lin and V works the best. ^_^ Also, just out of curiosity where did you hear about us? I'm just dying to know! <3

Not the best two combinations in the universe. What do you for a living? YES, yet... at the same time I really wanted to see some crack!mamoru/darien. I couldn't help thinking 'He has better legs than the sailor senshi.
Moos good, also Andie. ^^ The V is random. You must explain it. And I heard about you from rpg_promo.

I work in a medical university. I'm mostly just a peon, but meh, it pays the bills. /shrug.
V for Vanessa. Everyone, and I mean -everyone-, calls me just 'V'. Had a big hang up on the speech in "V for Vendetta" because of it. ^_^
rpg_promo? Hmmm, oh on LJ? Awesome, very awesome. I hope more people come along, if you have any friends that would like to play do invite away! The more the merrier, we have TONS of spots open still!
And yeah... even I can't make fishnets look that hawt! Totally jealous. >_>;

What's a peon? Never heard of it. It does, but it's also interesting. ;o
Hehe, So, you are SAILOR V then? Can I have your autograph? I joke. V for Vendetta was kind of a good film.
Yes!, and I'm sure more people will come along as they see it building. I would if I did, I never really had tons of SM friends.
<<; I know what you mean.

Peon = grunt, low man on the totem pole, I'm just a paper pusher. I wouldn't call it horribly interesting, being a secretary isn't exactly my ideal career. I can't wait to get out of here and go back to school.
The movie was awesome, but that speech was the best. LOVED it, so well written, and I love Hugo Weaving, he had a perfect voice for that roll!
Well we're glad we caught your eye. Do feel free to leaf through the other profiles to get a feel for how a profile should be written out. And don't worry if it's not horribly detailed, it is perfectly acceptable to post a preliminary profile and ask for suggestions, ideas and help! We're all guilty of filling things in as we go. ^_^

Still. Couldn't imagine what you'd at least learn while working there. What's the ideal career you're going for?
I don't remember the speech, but I do remember his voice and his voice was great for it. It takes a great actor to place his face behind a mask and convey what he's meant to convey through body language and voice alone.
I have been! You guys are pretty damn awesome. Trust me, I will, working on government and mars' military now. How long have you been a sailormoon fan?

Meh, my husband is the medical one, not me. I'm a history/culture/language nut. My ideal job is working for like National Geographic or something. Or even teaching kids about dinosaurs in a museum. That would be awesome.
I totally agree, he was fantastic. One of the best main rolls I have seen! For never seeing his face I completely felt every emotion. I totally cried when he died too.
Sailor Moon was the first anime I ever saw, I remember getting up at like 4 in the morning before school in 5th grade to watch it. Though it was the corniest thing I had ever seen.... and yet much like a train wreck I couldn't look away! I think it's just very well done, and the art. I love the art.
