So, Mirage probably isn't the flashiest RP site out there, but we are staffed by a friendly crew all focused on one thing: enhancing your roleplay experience.
Always, we're tossing around new ideas and possible plots. Always, we're concerned about the happiness and excitement of our guests. I know it's difficult to come into a new place, not knowing anyone or having a feel for the attitude of its owners. So this an opportunity for Staff and guests alike to introduce themselves and state a few of their interests.
As your resident Admin Supreme, I'll begin xD
Name: Rivet, Riv, Amber, RainbowChaser (old character, 'nother site), RC, ArCee Age: 18 (and still a dork!) 8D Lives in: Tennessee, USA Likes: Quality roleplay, wolves, horses, felines, animals in general, rootbeer floats, rainbows, thunderstorms, football, hockey, making people laugh, drawing, playing games on Pogo Dislikes: Flying insects, crawly insects, pretty much any insect, extra-terrestrials, dolls (long story <<;), clowns, plain bagels, shallow minds A few words to describe me would be: Compassionate, empathetic, a little shy, life-loving, silly, goofy, analytical
Ta-da! Not difficult. Not scary. And now you know a little more about moi. ;3
( Oh, and, you may hear Rouge and I calling eachother Twin... we're not related, just spookily alike. x3 )

Alright, so anyway.
Shout crypt or kiss, those are my most common usernames although I have a bunch. Feel free to give me nicknames, everything is good. For 15 years I've spin in circles but it'll be 16 when the fall comes. I hope the world won't hit me hard, I'm a little kid at heart. Seriously. With the sun in my eyes, I've burnt in California, USA for all my life. Yet I'm still as pale as a peaches, rosy yet a creamy yellow white like bananas. I've got a heart for just about everything, I like a lot of things and don't happen to dislike too many things. But my favorites are God, my dogs, my family, my friends, roleplaying, animals and etc. You can add to the list, but it'l be longer then rules I bet you. What's to say about me, personally I'd say crazy and it'd be good to sum it all up. Let's just play along and you'll discover what a whacko I am. One day, you may ask me. Are you high? And I'll say no, but hello to you too!
There's a lot more I can say. But let's get to the juicy details that I've been waiting for. Plot ideas. I've got loads. Anyway here is my first one, I'm a canine fanatic but this one reaches out to all those predators anyway. So then there is this remote village far in the outskirts of Africa, in the middle of now where but surrounded by the lives of Mirage. There in that village rules a ambitious hunting dog, he hunts like it's a game and everyone loves him, he's charismatic and handsome, he's got all that. But he still wants more. So this dog begins expanding his territory, beginning to mock and tease the wild animals before he really starts getting a move on. He and his hunting pack are driving the wild animals insane, they're killing cubs, taking lands, spoiling the prides/packs and just taking it all. They're doing it slowly, but if no one stops them. They'll spread like an epidemic. Why aren't the big cats and the wild dogs slaughtering them for all the trouble they are causing? There are too many, and they always run back to the village whenever they get in too much trouble. All the animals know the danger of humans, but will they risk it to save their future? Their cubs, or will there be another way of dealing with the dogs?
Eh, sorta sketchy but you get it right? Well anyway, how does it sound. And if you don't like it, don't be afraid to tell me off. I'll probably think up something else when I get my character's done. So then to start something -glompsRivet--licks- :3 [/blockquote][/size]

Yay ;3 Glad to meet ya, and thanks for joining! You and I will probably get along juuust fine ^^
I think the idea is really nice, for a starter. Of course, it'll require some more members/activity, but that's what we're aiming for anyway.
At first, I thought it might be better for them to move to one of the open territories. But on second thought, this way makes it more of a challenge, I think, which I like. It'd just be too easy for the three current clans to gang up on them otherwise.
I think, for this, I would be willing to create a fifth territory forum, which would be under your control. It would simply be the African Village, and the base for you and your dogs. I will still not allow the roleplay of humans, but their actions may be mentioned in individual posts.
If I may suggest a few things, though? I don't want it to be too easy for one side to prey on the other; both should have a considerable chance to retaliate.
- To keep the shots fair, the Village should be far enough away that the dogs will have to make a considerable journey (a few hours worth) to get to the clans and back to safety. They may want to have a second, unofficial 'hideout' in one of the mutual areas for extended operations.
- This also allows time for a clan to react, and possibly fight one or two strays on open ground, though I'm assuming the majority will stay in the village and send small embassies out a few at a time to do the 'dirty work'.
I await the opinions of the other staff on this, and their additions if they have any, but right now I'm thinking this to be a fine idea, indeed ^^

Name: Muzi, Scyphon, Naz, Nazz, SNazzy, Snazz, Kit, Kelsey Age: 18 and lovin' it Lives in: California, USA Likes: Roleplaying, wolves, equine studies (I am going to school to train horses. I do it already, but it gives me something to do and more techniques to use in deveoping my own program. xD) rootbeer floats, steak, strawberries, snazzberries (xD), cookies, fluffy pillows, midwest summers, snow, California cheese, country music, soft sunshine in my window through tree leaves, watermelon. xD Dislikes: BUGS. I HATE them, passionately. ESPECIALLY bees. Ask Lefitte. She has been on the phone with me when I've been in contact with the buzzy bastards. *shiversngags* annoying noobs, people who think rednecks and hicks are stupid, stupid men, stupid bugs, aliens and UFOs (they scare the bajesus outta me) people who poke me, sunburn, screaming children, any child under the age of four, any child over the age of 11, tweens, gossipy girls in the locker room, dull people. A few words to describe me would be: hell if I know! Ask Riv or Rou!!
Plotgoodiness: I like it, but I agree with RC. It just be one or two strays, rather than hordes of them seeking us out.... ><

That's goood. It's always good to get along with the adminnie.
I'm glad that you like it, I want to really get into the action quick. I think the African village would be a good idea, but I don't want to take over so much. I'd feel over dominating, hahaha.
For the second hideout and being far away, that's completely fair. They could probably hide out in maybe an abandoned farm or maybe a very rocky place, or tunnels on the side of a cliff or something. Dunno.
It works if just small groups come out to fight/tease the clans and so that way it'd be fair. They wouldn't come out in big groups unless it was really important, my lead will most likely be a bit insane and have a more playful side, she'll treat it all as a game.
So then, anything else. :3
