What is your ideal roleplay?
First of all, our plot shouldn't be fully laid out, but at least the premise would be discussed.
A good balance of drama and humor, with a plot. Smut is optional if there is enough chemisty between the character.

"How smart is Ramlethal in terms of knowledge and what do you think her I.Q. level is?"
"In terms of fighting knowledge, she is gifted by the virtue of being a biological weapon and the Backyard can provide her plenty of informations. But her intelligence is dampened by her lack of field experience, thus her style is still unrefined"

((OOC: Without taking RP in consideration, Azi Dahaka would tear the entire Backyard in half. His Gift would make any form of magic null and he has tanked with ease Izayoi's star level punches. Her only advantage is her speed . Azi Dahaka is above Izayoi who is faster than ten times the speed of light. Justice is faster than Jack-O who is trillions of times the speed of light. Still she wouldn't even scratch Azi while he needs a good slash to end her. Even assuming she really can affect the entire universe, so did every God in Little Garden, and look how that worked for them))

I really like your edits! What are your top 5 edits are you most proud of making? JamBerri
Nice Question. Here are my answers with an extra one I felt it had to be included
6) http://i.imgur.com/LpBtNbt.png
No real reason. I am amazed Ankoku looks so good in red and black lol
5) http://i.imgur.com/hP8GpCm.png
This one was a long story arc of Ankoku aquiring the Devil Trigger Powers. All the mixes of all the triggers (Vergil, Sparda, Dante and even another friend of mine from fb) made it back then my most ambitious project, with 28 layers each. There was a more elaborate picture somewhere but it got lost with time
4) http://i.imgur.com/B8KEkPi.png
This one was the first I really began to work Ankoku's scars, thus giving him further identity away from his bases. I also like Ankoku's blase' attitude about it. He has grown used to them in this point
3) I CAN'T SHOW IT!
Small hint, these were my first attempts to make lewds with Ankoku. You can see his 'honor'. I was glad to have worked... especially because in the original base it was a woman. Yes, I had to edit a whole organ in AND the whole male bodyframe to get rid of them b o o b i e s. it was... quite a challenge
2) http://i.imgur.com/o61mAAt.jpg
Ankoku's 'ideal hero' form belonging to his dream. I just love how much white it has and yet doesn't look too mch of an eyesore. Also, if you check, his eyes are fractals. And the scarf... oh I have enjoyed making the scarf so long and given it golden marks
1) http://i.imgur.com/e9U45xT.gif
Of all the gif Edits I have made, this one was by far the most complex, with over 51 frames of animation to edit individually. It was a pain and yet, it worked so smoothly. Hat animation and scarf had to be indipendent. By far the greatest project I have made, more than the current default I have (which includes this gif as well)

|Be honest, wouldn't be interesting or better if Ramlethal were to learn from Slayer and/or spar with him to become stronger? XD Slayer is more skilled and experience...and nicer XP| DivaOfDespair

Her inferiority complex towards anyone doesn't help, even needing to point out how she'd have beaten you if she didn't hold back. Go ahead and ask her, nevermind you were clearly holding back as well, as otherwise you'd have nuked the entire city with a gamma ray and be done with it. Her rather open costumes, with Kuroko, Lilith and everyone else is also pretty disgusting, she downright lowkey boasts of her conquests. Keep bed matters in your bed. Lastly, she tried to kill me twice over getting with Medaka and the fact she is willing to share proves me how she doesn't love her... wait, she doesn't love PERIOD. Add how she also has another girlfriend besides Medaka... and how on earth can I respect such a loose, selfish child?"

What is your opinion on Guilty Gear story-wise and with its characters?^^
Oooh this one is going to be long. Especially because I have to first begin with this.
Guilty Gear, as a series, does not lend itself well to a plot. Most fighting games don't. Why? In a story you normally have to carefully build up the role for each character, which clashes with how different each the gameplay and styles have to be for the sake of competitive gaming. This results in a lot of 'endings' that ends up mostly discarded and drawn, forcing people to either wait for their own game or make their own conclusion on the 'true' winners of the stories.
Story Mode in Xrd makes up for that but has the issue of being a giant movie. This isn't bad per se, but this is a game!
It also doesn't help a lot of the story is scattered not just across games (and their multiple remakes/gaiden stories whose canonicity can be an handful to deal) but side content such as drama CDs, mangas, novels , it is extremely hard to follow the entire story. This is a pre-emptive Cap. Now, my real opinion.
Before eI continue, I want to say that IMO, Guilty Gear is hit and miss, but mostly hit, especially when it comes to 'turning its head' around clichés. An example is Dr. Baldhead, generic evil serial killer in the original, turning into the jovial, goofy, friendly Faust. it adds layer to the character. Other examples of this are Dizzy and, of course, Ramlethal. While the designs of the characters are... not always very good, due to how overly intricate and impractical they feel, work to complement the characters and the gameplay again enphatizes a lot how they work, such as Sol's rough style, Ky's graceful fighting, Slayer's complete nonchalance, Faust's sheer.... WTFness, Zappa's otherwordlyness, May's childish and carefree behaviour, Bedman's complete creepiness., all of this is neatly conveyed by how they fight, and also helps they clearly have some with it, as, otherwise, the story of Guilty Gear is mostly humorless (example: Faustand May, usual comic relieves, have an incredibly dark arcade mode. Even creepier is Elphelt's arcade in Revelator).
GUilty Gear I think works best when it doesn't have a real 'villain', with the true culprit are the main flaws and mistakes of the old generation, with neither side being fully wrong or evil. Instead, characters like Justice and Ariels are not only extremely clichéd and uninteresting (Justice conceptually is intriguing, but in practice is a generic villain), but their sympathetic side is forced, especially Justice. I-No worked only because her superior, That Man, was clearly not your generic kind of antagonist, implying to be working for a greater good that (was implied) would take however a lot of pain and effort for everyone. Ariels is just a conflict killer whose main role is to make everyone be buddy buddy because she is the true evil villain.
For the characters, I mostly like them, especially for their development, although sadly there are stagnant ones, such as Chipp and, may the fandom forgive me, Sol Badguy. I don't see him as interesting. While his backstory MIGHT be, he was little more but an unfortunate victim and most of his backstory happened offscreen. This coupled with his monstrous power in constant rise doesn't help either. Doesn't help that he is mostly passive as a character, barely doing anything until it's finally time to punch the final boss in the face (a job he is remarkably good at, admittedly)
Now, Sin is far more balanced, especially in Xrd where his story with Ramlethal makes him more dynamic and helps overall enphatizing the story's themes of humanity being present in more than just genes or ki, which cultimates in him finally forgiving his father and actually standing up against Sol. Good stuff overall.
Ky is also good due to his fair balance and exploration of the paladin's character, although he seems to be getting the short stick when it comes to power.. And like many I wasn't fond of how he seems to be either not fully humand that now seemingly Ky has grown due to such mysterious power far above Sol, being able to beat him to hand to hand (Come on, at least have him win by cunning and speed, not raw strength!). It's as if you have to be a monster if you want to hang around with the big guys.
Now, Ralmethal... She is just amazing. I love how she is a subversion of all we thought of her, I love how she grows up (preachiness aside of how she is the only one to know freedom, but I blame Bedman for that), and her self sacrifice. I thought it was neat. Elphelt and Jack-O alas got the short end of the stick.
I wish there was less enphasis on the backyard and back to explain the already set lore, such as the Forbidden Beasts and what on Earth is Slayer. But do I look forward watching the next story mode? Oh absolutely

An example is Dr. Baldhead, generic evil serial killer in the original, turning into the jovial, goofy, friendly Faust. it adds layer to the character. Other examples of this are Dizzy and, of course, Ramlethal. While the designs of the characters are... not always very good, due to how overly intricate and impractical they feel, work to complement the characters and the gameplay again enphatizes a lot how they work, such as Sol's rough style, Ky's graceful fighting, Slayer's complete nonchalance, Faust's sheer.... WTFness, Zappa's otherwordlyness, May's childish and carefree behaviour, Bedman's complete creepiness., all of this is neatly conveyed by how they fight, and also helps they clearly have some with it, as, otherwise, the story of Guilty Gear is mostly humorless (example: Faustand May, usual comic relieves, have an incredibly dark arcade mode. Even creepier is Elphelt's arcade in Revelator).
GUilty Gear I think works best when it doesn't have a real 'villain', with the true culprit are the main flaws and mistakes of the old generation, with neither side being fully wrong or evil. Instead, characters like Justice and Ariels are not only extremely clichéd and uninteresting (Justice conceptually is intriguing, but in practice is a generic villain), but their sympathetic side is forced, especially Justice. I-No worked only because her superior, That Man, was clearly not your generic kind of antagonist, implying to be working for a greater good that (was implied) would take however a lot of pain and effort for everyone. Ariels is just a conflict killer whose main role is to make everyone be buddy buddy because she is the true evil villain.
For the characters, I mostly like them, especially for their development, although sadly there are stagnant ones, such as Chipp and, may the fandom forgive me, Sol Badguy. I don't see him as interesting. While his backstory MIGHT be, he was little more but an unfortunate victim and most of his backstory happened offscreen. This coupled with his monstrous power in constant rise doesn't help either. Doesn't help that he is mostly passive as a character, barely doing anything until it's finally time to punch the final boss in the face (a job he is remarkably good at, admittedly)
Now, Sin is far more balanced, especially in Xrd where his story with Ramlethal makes him more dynamic and helps overall enphatizing the story's themes of humanity being present in more than just genes or ki, which cultimates in him finally forgiving his father and actually standing up against Sol. Good stuff overall.
Ky is also good due to his fair balance and exploration of the paladin's character, although he seems to be getting the short stick when it comes to power.. And like many I wasn't fond of how he seems to be either not fully humand that now seemingly Ky has grown due to such mysterious power far above Sol, being able to beat him to hand to hand (Come on, at least have him win by cunning and speed, not raw strength!). It's as if you have to be a monster if you want to hang around with the big guys.
Now, Ralmethal... She is just amazing. I love how she is a subversion of all we thought of her, I love how she grows up (preachiness aside of how she is the only one to know freedom, but I blame Bedman for that), and her self sacrifice. I thought it was neat. Elphelt and Jack-O alas got the short end of the stick.
I wish there was less enphasis on the backyard and back to explain the already set lore, such as the Forbidden Beasts and what on Earth is Slayer. But do I look forward watching the next story mode? Oh absolutely
