[Alaric]

[Guest]

Okay thank you!

Al, to continue our conversation from Xing (Whither I was attracted instead of here, where you've kindly explained that I should have started first.) and in the interest of heading off further misunderstandings, perhaps I should give you some information that might cause you to rejected me before going through my filling out and two people evaluating the template. That seems only fair. Some RP purists don't approve of historical characters. As you can read here.

There's no gainsaying the historical evidence. You need only Google Hypatia Theon to find:

There was a woman at Alexandria named Hypatia, daughter of the philosopher Theon, who made such attainments in literature and science, as to far surpass all the philosophers of her own time. Having succeeded to the school of Plato and Plotinus, she explained the principles of philosophy to her auditors, many of whom came from a distance to receive her instructions. On account of the self-possession and ease of manner, which she had acquired in consequence of the cultivation of her mind, she not unfrequently appeared in public in presence of the magistrates. Neither did she feel abashed in going to an assembly of men. For all men on account of her extraordinary dignity and virtue admired her the more.
.

The Ecclesiastical History of Socrates Scholasticus.; today marks the martyrdom of pagan philospher, Hypatia

All formal dogmatic religions are fallacious and must never be accepted by self-respecting persons as final.
Hypatia of Alexandria

Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all.
Hypatia of Alexandria

To teach superstitions as truth is a most terrible thing.
Hypatia of Alexandria

[During the reign of Christian Emperor Theodosius] bands of wandering monks attacked synagogues, pagan temples, heretics' meeting places, and the homes of wealthy non-believers in Mesopotamia, Syria, Egypt, Palestine, and North Africa. The bishop of Alexandria incited local vigilantes to destroy the Temple of Serapis [also known as the Serapeum], one of the largest and most beautiful buildings in the ancient world that also housed a library...Alexandrian Christians whipped up by Bishop Cyril rioted against the Jews in 415, and then murdered Hypatia, a wise and beloved Platonic philosopher.
Richard E. Rubenstein, When Jesus Became God: The Epic Fight over Christ's Divinity in the Last Days of Rome, pp. 226 - 227 Source

If you're interested, you can read more gory details about this brutal murder in Wikipedia and the New World Encyclopedia or search for images, and find not only the sculpture used as an icon for this posting but also Hypatia, 1885, by Charles William Mitchell (1854 - 1903) this painting:

Which had to be a work of imagination what with Mitchell living almost a couple of millennia later.

Sorry, under a bit of time pressure. Please e-mail me when you've decided.

Your would be philosophical character, Hypatia Theon

[Alaric]

Alright, I e-mailed ya ^^

[Guest]

Thanks, Al. Reading your e-mail, to which I've given you a detailed response F.Y.I. that need not be posted here. (Unless you want to post some or all of it for information of other members? Then, please do.) I believe that all that's required before making out a template is to decide who:

1) Hypatia in a non-evil role? Utilizing her considerable skills as a Philosophical Investigator?

2) Pearl Dragon as Lust or as herself (Played by Chinese player LongZhenZhu) Example RP.

3) LozaLuk AlBad as himself or in another minor role? (Played by BrainPoliceXXX) Example RP.

Hope this finally gets us out of this thread and back to Xing, Hypatia Theon

Every person on the site can only have one character per account, and only one account at that. You have to have your character registered and approved by two administrators on the site before you are allowed to RP on the site, and you are, as previously stated, restricted to one area at a time. If you want to RP with the people on the site, we're all currently crowing up the desert, or a few are in Central, Amestris.
If Hypathia is a non-evil player, then it looks like 'Mother' is still open, since that is an evil role, besides, we already have a crackpot playing father -hehe, no offence, Reita- so the homunculi already have one leader right now. You can choose whatever orientation you have, but if she is not a homunculus, then she cannot be 'Hypathia's' paralell doppleganger since the doppleganger is dead too, she'd have to be a descendant with the same name.
If pearl or Lozaluk wanna RP here, then get them to make accounts and have their characters approved. We have ways of checking out your IP address, so we can know if you are just making more than one account to support all of your characters.
If you have anymoer questions, just ask.
