"MY FREAKIN RPG -- input appreciated!" , posted Sat 12 Jul 04:02post reply


about a year ago (wow, in two days, it will be a complete year), i posted a thread asking who wanted to be a character in my rpg. well, it's time to confirm these character ideas! also, mmcafe has welcomed many new members since then. if you'd like to be a character in my rpg, then you're welcome post your ideas here. i'll do my best to implement you somewhere

please provide as much information as possible (physical description, the character's attitude, the character's purpose ((if any)), etc), and what kind of character you'd like to be. i split "the kind of character" into several categories

"townfolk" sit around some area all day (it doesn't necessarily have to be a town) and say whatever when you talk to them. they can give out information, greet people, give out wrong information, tell people to suck off, use your imagination!
"shopkeepers" sell stuff
"innkeepers" are kind of like shopkeepers. they restore health and stuff. these include restaurant guys and barkeeps
"quest masters" send the main party on little miniquests to gather items, or kill an enemy, or accomplish a certain task. my rpg actually has enough of them, but if you'd still like to be one, i might be able to place you somewhere
"enemies" are guys you can fight. but they don't necessarily have to be bad. actually, there's going to be a "tournament" or two in the story! participants may be needed

again, please provide as much information as possible. if you don't give me a proper physical description, i'll make one up for you mahahaha ... but keep in mind that i may have to edit your character to fit the storyline. don't worry though. i'll try my best to keep them as you had originally planned, and i will make another confirmation thread before i release a complete version of the rpg

below, in alphabetical order, i will list the characters that were previously contributed. if you dislike any changes i've done or would like to add some changes yourself, then go ahead and post. i'll see what i can do

..............................

Dragon-warrior
- semi-final boss
- must destroy different (dragon) parts of the body. these include an ice shield, lava armor, and a thunder helmet
- desc: a large human with armor as described above. wields a big axe
.
my edit - NO YOU MAY NOT KILL ALL THE HERO FRIENDS hehe. but i will place you in the last "dungeon" as you wish

Dr Baghead
- shopkeeper. runs a potion store
- quest master. party brings you crap they found in the road so you can turn them into elixirs and other superb items!
- also shows up in random places to sell items
- desc: wears a bag over his head

Gojira
- some monster somewhere
.
my edit - i still haven't thought of anything specific for you. it'll come to me later (or maybe you have more of an idea now)

Hama (raven)
- uh (i freakin' lost the *.txt file of the description you gave me, but i sorta remember it. i'll type it up and post it here in a few hours)

iggy
- crazy dog that likes the weak female character (the predictable female white priest)
- iggy loves her but she's too stupid too notice
- he also attacks anyone that tries to put a move on her, including the main male character
- iggy will be a boss before the girl joins your party
- iggy will do the attacking for her (because it isn't proper for a white priest to fight)
.
my edit - i know you said you didn't wear collars. TOO BAD! iggy will wear a collar, but i'll make it apparent that your character dislikes collars. the girl will force you to wear them. also (this is a given), you will look like "the iggy dog"

Jazzie D
- innkeeper
.
my edit - you'll be the innkeeper of a quiet fishing town. i'll need a physical description though. i'm thinking along the lines of the picture you showed me before

Juan
- ROFL KEKE ZERG RUSHER
- HAS BALLOONS FOR HANDS
- WEARS A PINK BOW

NeoRyu
- boss or drunk guy
.
my edit - maybe i can make you both. you talk to the character and he gets into a fight with the party. when the battle's over, he passes out or something. oh yeah, does it matter what town i put you in? i'm thinking of putting you in the slums somewhere, but if you want a nicer neighborhood then that's fine

Radish
- either a guy who mans one of those control panels and periodically says "It's no good! Our fantabulous ray has no effect and we're taking in water!" or a pointless yet wacky sub-villain
.
my edit - you can be both! actually, thanks to your comment, i was able to come up with one story in my rpg. i just need a description. what you look like, what kind of attacks you'll have, how weak/strong you want me to make you, etc

Rid Hershel
- (no description yet. i just know you wanted to be in it at one point)

RugalBernstein
- evil, right?
.
my edit - i've got a pretty good idea for you. contact me when you've got the chance. i'll post the idea (with spoilers omitted) here in a few hours

Satoshi Miwa
- a singing lumberjack (!!!) with your girl by your side (???)
my edit - i need a physical description! otherwise, you will look like Keitarou and your girl will look like Chiyo-chan!

Time Mage
- guy that appears in every town giving newbie tips
- later in the game, he'll give more advanced tips (secret locations, etc)
- desc: mage-type with a pointy hat and black robes

Toxico
- (description removed due to spoiler purposes)
.
my edit - your story will be a pretty big sidequest. you said any ideas i use are ok, but i'd still like to get in touch with you outside of mmcafe if possible (to keep the spoilers hidden)

I want to be a dreaded random monster : the Tax collector. The more more magic item you have, the more gold you lose when you meet me...
You've got to run very fast to avoid me.
And if you hit me, I clone myself... but sometime, due to replication problem, the clones may chage into 'red cross' members who will heal you for free...

For the physical aspect : a normal guy with brown hairs and glasses clad in a kinda out of situation business suit...

Hmm..Look like Keitaro and have Chiyo-chan...Just might be twisted enough to work...:) The girl could even have a giant dog as a pet!

Anyway, I'd probably be a townsperson manning the lumber mill, giving some hints on important quests and wearing some form of plaid. A possible side quest might be to stick me near a cursed woods that I can't log anymore (and have the handy dandy PC's clean them up...).

Edit: Oh, and thanks for having me in this, too..:)

Well, I know Iam rather new here but I'd be glad to be in your game ^_^

If it is possible, then I'd like to be an itinerant daoist fortune teller who can give some clues to others characters about everything they want. Also, as a hobby, I'm a famous but almost retired demon hunter. I'm able, to some extent, to make one's person's life exceed it's normal term, to change paper dolls in servants, and also to curse some one in some tricky way :
I can "close" directions. Meaning that if somebody wants to reach point B from point A going, say, south, and if I already closed the south, he will be cursed to death of be horribly ill or whatever. to avoid this, that person should take any another path but south in order to reach her destination.
As for the apperance, if you know the manga Onmyoji you see how I look. If not, it's something like Fujiwara no Sai in Hikaru no Go.
I wonder if you'll be able to make this fit in your plans...

Sounds fun!! ^_^

If all at possible, I would like to be the weapon master of the game. I will appear in towns and certain areas of the game to sell, buy, repair, upgrade your weapon of choice. If you bring me certain items I may also give you tips to find weapons that are not available anywhere else in the game (like hidden "Lightsabre"), or custom-made weapon...

I thank you in advance! :biggrin*

Hey...I want in!

I want to be a wandering eccentric composer, seemingly always where the player is and always searching for inspiration. When the PC meets me, they'll over heard me spout off seeming nonsense that might actually suggest what they're supposed to do in the game...the idea being that the eventual masterpiece song he's writing will chronicle the LEGEND OF THE HERO or some other stuff like that. :)

his appearance...he's alwasy going to be doing two things simultaneously: eating and writing music. if he's at an inn or bar, he'll be sitting down and munching on an entree while jotting down notes. If he's outside, he might be munching on a sandwich while thinking about lyrics. Despite his insatiable appetite, he looks rather thin. He dresses in all black, has a rather pale complexion and has graying brown hair that reaches down to the small of his back.

Exciting! I'd like to be in it as well.
BTW, do you need any help with the game? Artwork / music / movies / 3d? Maybe some of us here can help :)


Holiday
- shopkeeper. sells doujins and "specialist" costumes
- if there are no doujins in your world, maybe a seller of "ancient erotic parody art woodcuts" or something, haha
- has doujin material which features some member of the party. can even be yaoi or something ^_^
- costumes has no benefits to party? mostly for cosmetic value.

- questmaster. gives game art/fanart to party after certain events/quests. kekeke, maybe gives you a chance to include fanart or stuff in the game.
The game has tentacle monsters in it, right? Right?
- makes you costumes of characters to cosplay in after you bring back their bodies/skin/hide.

- description: overly serious guy. think Sagara Sousuke from Full Metal Panic. can look like him as well.
- has a cute female shop assistant who cosplays a lot. Think Komugi Nakahara from Nurse Witch Komugi-Chan :)

Wow cool! I'd love to be a wacky sub villian. I'm thinking along the lines of the trio in Grandia or Ratchet from Thousand Arms level of wackiness.

edit: it might even be neat if there were several villian members and we could have a group of us or something if that doesn't conflict with your plot or anything.

Wow... I'd be honored to be in your RPG.

I'd like to be a NPC that sits in your 'pub' or 'bar' (maybe inside your inn's bar) or what have you. Every town the PC would go to, I'd be sitting in that bar, getting wasted. Depending on their response to me, I'd give them my drunken wisdom, or just insult the hell out of them using insults from that random insult generator on the net :)

Maybe I could make a cameo in the end, or save the hero's life somehow. But if you just left me in the bar I'd be happy. Maybe I could sell the hero special drinks that would make him strong for a little bit, but then hurt him after it wears off?

My character would be a old, haggard guy, maybe around 55 years of age. He'd be wearing some dirty old cape/tarp thingie, and who know's what's under that =P

That's it, good luck on the game!

"Re(1):BEST RPG EVAR!" , posted Sat 12 Jul 19:44post reply


This sounds cool. May I come in?

Type of character:
Enemy

Appearance
A guy wearing a very worn-out cape, a Hanzo/Galford-like scarf that hides half of his face and a Sokaku-like hat (also very old) with a slash caused by a sword that let you peek some of the upper part of his face (actually only a glittering eye)

Weapons
Two guns. One gun has bullets that pierces through any defenses you may have and the other gun has bullets that cause status-ailments (depending on each bullet, i.e. a poison bullet would poison you, a "laugh" bullet would make you crazy/frenzy, etc)

Magic
When seriously damaged Makondo99 starts using magic. He will either use:
* An X-zone like spell that has a 50/50% rate of success (this means that the spell may hit the party or Makondo99 himself when casted)
I don't know if this can be implemented but the X-zone spell wouldn't kill you but rather send you to a random place of the world.

*Cast on himself four spells in one turn: Cure2, Regen, Haste and Wall (FF Tactics)

Terrain
Makondo99 would only appear ramdomly at night when it's pich dark in an eerie place or when it's raining in any place that fulfills one of the previously stated conditions.

Background
Makondo99 is looking for the man responsible for giving him the "99" number. And nothing will stand in his way to find him. This mysterious character is referred to by Makondo99 as "The Original One".

JJJ, I can give you more details if you like on this storyline, but it's basically a

Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
"clone story"

End of Spoiler

put me in.

exodus
-keeps showing up to help, but constantly gets killed (as an NPC).
-long hair bishounen type who's always looking down (directionally) and smug. You know how they do j0.
-makes the other males "uncomfortable", if you know what I mean.
-will eventually join the party, if you want. The time he joins, you see him at an inn (it's the town where he lives), and he asks if the party would like to sleep with him instead. If you say yes, you must give him some item (an event item, you know). Then the party all sleeps with him in one bed and wakes up feeling very odd.
-when he joins, he'll be rather powerful-ish, or really lame, however you'd like it to be. He must throw roses and use love magic and shit.


uh...this is just my character by the way. Don't read into things.

I wanna be one of the legendary Peeps!

You know, the character that the players read about when they enter a library. Several books are written as a biography to "Megane the Trickster" and his miraculous adventures. Some information in the book can be used as a hint on how the players can beat enemies, traverse a maze, etc.

You can even make a set of equipment named after me! (Although they'll only be semi-powerful) They'll be semi-secret equipment scattered throughout the game.

- Megane's Stick (ordinary stick, counts as a mace, Hi-power)
- Megane's Sandals (Gives Speed Up)
- Megane's Cloak (Good Magic Defense)

BTW, you could make him tell some stupid jokes inbetween advices... something like Kaito (from DB).



By DB do you mean Dragon Ball or something else? IF so, which version of Dragon ball did you see?

Can you put in a monster that is a cross between a tonberry and a sabotender and call it "Stabotender"?

Just some thoughts if you still need/want more characters.

Mog

-short brown hair, glasses (if the engine allows them), pretty much your standard dork (Actually, Lezard in Valkyrie Profile would probably be a descent model to go off of. Just make me far less adiquet.)

-clumsy, and frequenty falls victum to slapstick humor and general abuse

-I would be an apprentice mage of some sort. As such, any spell I try to cast in combat should have a small, random chance of exploding horribly in my face.

-I could see my character doing one of two things: 1) being some sort of townsfolk (possibly an inkeeper, merchant, our even librarian if you have one), or 2) if it's okay with Radish, being another wacky sub-villain

-wouldn't mind being female if you wanted a bit more character deversity (in which case, I can find another picture)

-not sure if you would want to change my name or not being that Mog is a Square-Enix character. If so I've got a host of other crappy nicnames you could use.

That's about all I can think of. Let me know if you need to know more.

edit: improved pressentation

I mean, in Dragon Ball Z, the god named Kaito (or Kaioh, or something similar) who lives in a very small planet at the end of the serpent way. He's blue, has antennes, a monkey mascot, and makes silly jokes. If you've seen him it's easy to know who I'm talking about.

If not, just make me throw some stupid jokes.

about a year ago (wow, in two days, it will be a complete year), i posted a thread asking who wanted to be a character in my rpg. well, it's time to confirm these character ideas! also, mmcafe has welcomed many new members since then. if you'd like to be a character in my rpg, then you're welcome post your ideas here. i'll do my best to implement you somewhere

please provide as much information as possible (physical description, the character's attitude, the character's purpose ((if any)), etc), and what kind of character you'd like to be. i split "the kind of character" into several categories

"townfolk" sit around some area all day (it doesn't necessarily have to be a town) and say whatever when you talk to them. they can give out information, greet people, give out wrong information, tell people to suck off, use your imagination!
"shopkeepers" sell stuff
"innkeepers" are kind of like shopkeepers. they restore health and stuff. these include restaurant guys and barkeeps
"quest masters" send the main party on little miniquests to gather items, or kill an enemy, or accomplish a certain task. my rpg actually has enough of them, but if you'd still like to be one, i might be able to place you somewhere
"enemies" are guys you can fight. but they don't necessarily have to be bad. actually, there's going to be a "tournament" or two in the story! participants may be needed

again, please provide as much information as possible. if you don't give me a proper physical description, i'll make one up for you mahahaha ... but keep in mind that i may have to edit your character to fit the storyline. don't worry though. i'll try my best to keep them as you had originally planned, and i will make another confirmation thread before i release a complete version of the rpg

below, in alphabetical order, i will list the characters that were previously contributed. if you dislike any changes i've done or would like to add some changes yourself, then go ahead and post. i'll see what i can do

..............................

Dragon-warrior
- semi-final boss
- must destroy different (dragon) parts of the body. these include an ice shield, lava armor, and a thunder helmet
- desc: a large human with armor as described above. wields a big axe
.
my edit - NO YOU MAY NOT KILL ALL THE HERO FRIENDS hehe. but i will place you in the last "dungeon" as you wish

Dr Baghead
- shopkeeper. runs a potion store
- quest master. party brings you crap they found in the road so you can turn them into elixirs and other superb items!
- also shows up in random places to sell items
- desc: wears a bag over his head

Gojira
- some monster somewhere
.
my edit - i still haven't thought of anything specific for you. it'll come to me later (or maybe you have more of an idea now)

Hama (raven)
- uh (i freakin' lost the *.txt file of the description you gave me, but i sorta remember it. i'll type it up and post it here in a few hours)

iggy
- crazy dog that likes the weak female character (the predictable female white priest)
- iggy loves her but she's too stupid too notice
- he also attacks anyone that tries to put a move on her, including the main male character
- iggy will be a boss before the girl joins your party
- iggy will do the attacking for her (because it isn't proper for a white priest to fight)
.
my edit - i know you said you didn't wear collars. TOO BAD! iggy will wear a collar, but i'll make it apparent that your character dislikes collars. the girl will force you to wear them. also (this is a given), you will look like "the iggy dog"

Jazzie D
- innkeeper
.
my edit - you'll be the innkeeper of a quiet fishing town. i'll need a physical description though. i'm thinking along the lines of the picture you showed me before

Juan
- ROFL KEKE ZERG RUSHER
- HAS BALLOONS FOR HANDS
- WEARS A PINK BOW

NeoRyu
- boss or drunk guy
.
my edit - maybe i can make you both. you talk to the character and he gets into a fight with the party. when the battle's over, he passes out or something. oh yeah, does it matter what town i put you in? i'm thinking of putting you in the slums somewhere, but if you want a nicer neighborhood then that's fine

Radish
- either a guy who mans one of those control panels and periodically says "It's no good! Our fantabulous ray has no effect and we're taking in water!" or a pointless yet wacky sub-villain
.
my edit - you can be both! actually, thanks to your comment, i was able to come up with one story in my rpg. i just need a description. what you look like, what kind of attacks you'll have, how weak/strong you want me to make you, etc

Rid Hershel
- (no description yet. i just know you wanted to be in it at one point)

RugalBernstein
- evil, right?
.
my edit - i've got a pretty good idea for you. contact me when you've got the chance. i'll post the idea (with spoilers omitted) here in a few hours

Satoshi Miwa
- a singing lumberjack (!!!) with your girl by your side (???)
my edit - i need a physical description! otherwise, you will look like Keitarou and your girl will look like Chiyo-chan!

Time Mage
- guy that appears in every town giving newbie tips
- later in the game, he'll give more advanced tips (secret locations, etc)
- desc: mage-type with a pointy hat and black robes

Toxico
- (description removed due to spoiler purposes)
.
my edit - your story will be a pretty big sidequest. you said any ideas i use are ok, but i'd still like to get in touch with you outside of mmcafe if possible (to keep the spoilers hidden)

i'll create a section on my site soon with more information about the rpg (a gist of the storyline, main character descriptions, town descriptions, basic skill/spell list, concept art, etc). the section may help many of you with your character descriptions

a demo will be released approximately September 19, 2003. my goal is to complete the rpg itself before 2003 ends

if you've gotten this far in my message, then i sincerely appreciate your time. thank you



I wanna be a questmaster and send the party on a cool quest. Can I look like Ron/Lon or Igniz from KOF2001?
Maybe the party can do a quest that simultaneously benifits them and the questmaster. Like maybe they can bring the questmaster blood samples from a legendary warrior to advance the questmasters plans by 10 years.
Oh, what do you mean by aptitude? An RPG trait?

oh ok, i got confused at first because i thought you meant the original dragon ball, which i dont recall has anyone named kaito. which in DBZ i know as "kaioh-sama."

"whoa" , posted Tue 15 Jul 02:51post reply


sorry it took me so long to reply. been busy lately and i got more responses than i expected. (which is a good thing!) so here goesss

iggy - hey, thanks! hmm, i should be able to get some screen shots late July/early August

Taa kun - alright! the idea sounds insane. maybe i can put you in one of the bigger cities (big city = expensive taxes). but even with the right coding, i'm not too sure how to pull off the clone thing. i'll see what i can do and report it later

Satoshi_Miwa - hey, no problem! and your suggestions sound good! i'll add those things when i put your character in

Abe no Seimei - a fortune teller could help with a lot of the game (and can take some work load off of Time Mage's character for "secret locations"). i also like the idea of an illness that ensues if the player takes a certain path you told them not to. maybe i can poison or paralyze a random party member and only cure them with an extremely expensive item (let the player waste money for not listening to your advice haha). unfortunately, i wasn't able to find a picture of Abe no Seimei do you have a picture you can show me? or maybe just a description. one of us can draw it up in a week or so and we'll see if it fits what you're aiming for

Burning Kyo - this guy? sure! i'll think of some place to put you ..

He||SinG - hmmm, desert ... does a "frozen desert" count? haha, a lot of my friends have been looking forward to this for over a year (i've been working on it for a while). here's to hoping it'll come out ok!

Dragon-Warrior - try e-mailing me at "angryhorseman at yahoo dot com." i wanna hear some of these

TheBeast - very cool! i just got a good idea concerning your character! uhh, you'll have to wait for the final product to find out. haha, sorry for the tease

Sklathill - alright! hey, if you're a musician (in real life) and you're able to compose your own MIDI of this "masterpiece song," i'd love to use it in my game! depending on when the party talks to your character, it can play a different version of the song until the final version is complete (a la FFV). unfortunately, for now, i'll have to stick with MIDI to keep the coding simple and the file size small

Holiday - thanks! but that's ok. i don't really need too much help in that department. most of the artwork in the game is going to be original. but i may need help finding good MIDI music (that would fit an RPG). i'd love to have every single piece of my RPG original, but unfortunately i don't know too much about creating music .. for now, i'll have to borrow other themes and credit the artists in my game somewhere
doujins - oh, there will be doujins! i even created the item "an Erotic Bao Doujin" a few months ago, which blinds the opponent and simultaneously heals some of their life (hehe). i got the idea because my other friend wanted to sell pornos in my RPG somewhere. welcome to the dirty world of JJJ's RPG!
doujin material of party members - my god, that idea is ingenious! i can think of so much insanity that that could stir up! (including angry sexy violent girls)
costumes and questmaster - this is great. i have two similar ideas that will suit both of these, but those will remain secret for uh "fun" purposes. you guys will know what i'm talking about later XD
tentacle monsters - there will be tentacle monsters!
description - the guy in these three pics and this girl?

RugalBernstein - sure! i won't use the pictures directly in the game, but i'd love to see more monsters to get an idea of what else to add. so far, most (about 75%) of the enemies i have planned are all humans. but i can't have the party going everywhere, slaughtering people left and right. there can't possibly be that many bad guys in my world. oh yes, for your character, i remember you wanted to look like that "red guy" (i forgot the name you gave him, but i still have his picture). i was thinking maybe sexy assistants and you being a part of a "dark council." i don't want to give too much away, and i still need a few more ideas for your part of the story. i'll get in touch with you later

Radish - a group of mmcafe sub villains that don't directly affect the storyline is a great idea! i'll make a post later and maybe we can get some people together that will want to be a part of it

KTallguy - thanks! and very cool. that "drunken wisdom" gives me some crazy ideas

Hungrywolf - cool, alright man. no rush. i'm just rushing for the demo. but it's cool, because i won't be able to fit all of you in the demo anyways. the final product's all that matters, right?

Makondo99 - i like it! especially since i'll (try to) put night and day situations in my RPG. if the party wanders around a certain place at night, there's a chance you'll appear and go berserk on them. oh yeah, i think i get the gist of it, but i'd like to hear more of the story. try e-mailing "angryhorseman at yahoo dot com"

Gojira - nah, i'll put you in. seeing your demo gave me inspiration to continue with my project. if it wasn't for you, i would've given up on the idea a long time ago. anyways, i'm always looking for more things to stuff my RPG with. for your character, i was thinking of some wise man that helps the party once then just wanders off, or a random monster the party meets ..
A - what the hell is that?
B - a Gojira
A - what's it do?
B - dunno
A - wanna kill it?
B - up to you
then you get a choice to fight or not. haha, the dialogue won't be exactly like that. i'm losing my mind here

NARUTO - this guy? alright! everything sounds great, but i'm not too sure about the experience part. i don't want "leveling up" to be a big part of the game. maybe killing you will reward piles of cash or an extremely rare/useful item

Time Mage - stupid jokes, gotcha! it'll spice up a newbie's experience (or really annoy them hehe). i'll try to make the jokes witty ..

exodus - mahahahahahaha

Toxico - alright! give me a moment to type out my plans. i'll e-mail you in a few days

Megane - cool idea! i can definitely do that

sabo10 - the knife will add +10 to stabbing power

Dr Baghead - hey, speaking of what your character looks like, what about the wardrobe for the rest of the body? since you mentioned the "Zelda witch" last year, how does robes sound? or do you wanna keep the whole Faust look?

Mog - how about part-time librarian, part-time sub villain? hehe, i think i can make it work
gender - male is fine, but if you can come up with a female description, i've got a great idea i can use with it
name - don't worry about the name. so people will be able to recognize eachother, i'm going to have everyone keep their original names if they wish. anyways, i won't be making any money off of this, and i'll be giving credit where credit's due, so i don't think Square-Enix will mind too much

Gen - cool, i can do that. "aptitude?" oh, i meant "attitude." just how you'd react most of the time when the party interacts with you

come to think of it, i don't wanna do too much of a rush job on this. Juan came up with a great idea the other day which will take quite a while to create (and implement). i'm pushing my goal of the final product to April 11, 2004. but, because of other certain deadlines, the demo will still arrive September 19, 2003. just giving you guys something to look forward to

by the way, if anyone can get me the name of a good MIDI editor, i'd be grateful

Well, I'm glad to see you liked these ideas. As for the picture, the real Abe no Seimei is somewhat ugly, but you should check the official page of Okano Reiko, who draws the onmyôji manga

Yeah, that'll be great! If my character being female works better for story purposes, I say go for it. I'm fine either way. As for my character discrition, it's pretty much the same as before only with longer hair, so something like this. Okay, thanks.
