A little about D'arque and Droll

D'arque is a character more akin to The Emcee from Cabaret, albeit more demanding when it comes to the thrill of performing. Droll is his short and punctual servant that solves his problems for him when they become too difficult. He's less of the straight talking asshole sidekick and more of the "I do this because I enjoy it" guy. He likes his job, he just doesn't know how D'arque will react to anything. Ever.

Try not to write for them as much, if you can, but feel free to do so if you find the need. Also, take the plot and twist and turn it as much as you want/can. I just threw in some Zombie dancers for dramatic effect. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 23:12, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

{Debonair steps out of the dark to reveal a man with rotted flesh and a mostly visible skull, dressed in dapper and dusty clothing akin to what Droll is wearing.}

Sorry, I just had to make the connection. Lex 23:37, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

The second one, sans glasses. If you want a character to relate him too, think Sander Cohen from Bioshock. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 00:07, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Ah. I see. Lex 00:13, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Oiracul

Was one of the best character concepts I've ever made. I'm not sure whether rewriting him/her will be as easy, though. Noxigar 00:37, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Honestly? I think Oiracul is a little mom and pop. Maybe it's just because werewolves don't really hold such a place of importance in post contemporary comedy. It's kind of either an unnecessary characteristic, or some vaguely pointless fluff. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 02:35, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
Very well. I'm primarily remembering how funny some things are for irony purposes which have werewolves in it (the current Metagame in Magic: the Gathering courtesy of the Innistrad block). I guess vague pointlessness is a problem. Noxigar 02:39, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
Well, I just don't remember Oiracul being a werewolf as a strong selling point of the character. However, now that I think about it, a shapeshifter actually sounds kind of cool. So that's nothing as hard as saying "Shapeshifter" where you want to say "Werewolf" and expanding the use of his powers will probably spice the character up in the right direction. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 02:52, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
Reasonable call. Oiracul was also a cleric of sorts. Noxigar 02:55, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

I feel like this episode is going to be mad short

Which will be like, some mad juxtaposition of a point in regards to the last episode. Sounds fun. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 01:03, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

I thought Episode 1 was a little short-ish. Maybe that's just me. Noxigar 01:05, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
It's not that it was short, it was just that the last one was mad long. Lex 01:03, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

I... uh...

I really haven't a clue where I should come in. Partly because I'm much less creative than I thought I was (Seriously? I wanted to be a dark elf with Katana?) Also, partly because sweet zombie love is really really funny. RemolaySig.pngtalk 03:10, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

LEX LOVES EVERYONE. EVEN THE DECOMPOSED. IT'S NOT NECROPHILIA IF THEY'RE STILL TECHNICALLY ANIMATE... RIGHT? Lex 09:49, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Hnngh

I kind of really, really, REALLY don't want to delve into such an idea of using outside characters like famous properties of others unless for comedic purposes, and it kind of inspires the same tapering-off that the old Wikihood had that oft made it fall into disrepair. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 20:29, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

Understood. I could easily make the episode idea a dream Noxigar had or some hallucination gone horribly funny. Thing is, this is why I didn't propose my episode idea quite yet. Noxigar 21:17, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
I second Chaos. I'm trying to refrain from using outside characters as well. Of course, that's not gonna stop me from making characters that are based off of outside (fictional and real) characters. Harhar. Lex 22:31, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

Excellent.

I quite enjoyed that ending (mostly because i wasn't the one who was arrested lolol), but that revelation about Debonair being the oldest citizen, and his family having control over the town... It gave me some kind of idea. Seeing as you've pretty much set him up to be a reoccurring character, wouldn't it be kind of cool for there to be another family to rival that of the D'Arques? Like one that's situated in another town, (or city, perhaps, how I would imagine) and has a long history of conflict with them? (politically and idealogy, of course, dealing with gentlemen and all that.) I actually have a much more specific plan, but I want to see if you're cool with the outline before I reveal it.
