I'm planning to take down Crusher's length by about 20-25 feet soon. i have recently seen how being a bit smaller and more vulnerable has actually made it more interesting. look at how i describe and play as Fatalis. THAT, is a type of Dino RPing i didn't even know until that fight scene against Shadow ages ago, when i took over ERC's characters for a short while during her absence. Chook, if you want people to like your RPing, you need to remember a few things:
Firstly: it's an Anky, not a Ferarri. it wouldn't be able to dodge an Allosaurus. it doesn't need to be 50 feet long to be safe. all that armour is enough to keep even a Rex's bite away!
Secondly: as mega raptor said, you need to develop your character. i think one of the things that made Crusher who he is is his story; his difficult past, his loss of a family and need of vengence against the cause behind it. his care for family and raising them as true predators, instead of the usual run, bit kill and eat, then sleep kind of predator. a predator that would inspire fear in the hearts of enemies. a predator that could easily be the most dominant predator. Crusher's care for family, his wisdom, his respect for all other predators who respect him equally, THAT, is what made Crusher what he is. that's why he's not being flamed for being too large. and Thank you SnowStalker. you, so far, are probably one of the very few who actually spoke his mind about any of my characters. im sure that alot of people arent too happy with a few aspects of my characters. however, few have actually said anything about it, and therefore, i havent been able to do anything about it, not knowing exactly what people didn't like.
Oh, BTW, chook: that little raptor pack you put in there, since you've abandoned it, is going to be killed off slowly, giving a chance for ERC to kill a few off as well. also, i have changed the fight with Uro. now, i've done what you asked for, you do what WE are asking for. go online, and read through some of the biger, more successful RPGs. better still, read some of the good ones on Jurassic Park Legacy.
Crusher closed in on the raptos, to find a mutant pack in confusion, looking around, lost. Crusher would've attacked, but he saw that there was apparently something already killing them off. something fast....very fast...
Fatalis was actually enjoying this. he saw it as a game.every time he saw the raptors home in on a particular tree, he'd rush to the other side of the clearing, and make a bark from the tree there, lsing them even more. he wouldv'e started to snigger, if this wasn't a truelly serious situation. he came up to another of the alphas, watching it from above, and jumped down, swinging his killer claws into it's spine, killing it, then jumping up again, back into the trees. he saw the raptor pack was slowly starting to fall apart. many of the raptos had run, and Fatalis was barking at the ones who stayed from so many different places they thought they had an entire raptor pack sitting in the trees, preparing to attack. Fatalis barked at the Alpha Female he was tracking, attracting her attention. he looked at her face. his gueses were right. she was a relative. before she could really soak in the fact that he was a relative, he ran through the trees to the other side of the clearing. she wouldn't have had the time to pin point which of her relatives he was. his face would be enough to make her remember her old pack...her family...
"Time to scare these raptors off for good..." snarled Fatalis quietly. he made attack shrieks instead of barks, moving through the trees as he did earlier. the attack shrieks meant that an attack was eminent, and it would quickly scare the raptors off...
"Ah yes, organised chaos. the sign of a clever but ever-busy mind. To the perpetrator, a carefully woven web of belongings and intrigue, but to the bystander? Madness!"
