Hi Haven, you can call me Satori. I was here a while back as Kusaribe Hakaze (hi Elric brothers and Crona), now I'm back with Naruto's Namikaze Minato, the infamous Yellow Flash. He's a kind-natured, highly skilled ninja with a somewhat laidback personality, which can turn into that of an assassin when called to action. He's a protector when it comes to those he cares about, so if you win him over, you've made a powerful ally. He'll be rooming in 1.005.

I'm excited to start roleplaying with everyone again. Before that, though, I'll turn this into a permissions post as well since there's really only one thing I need to ask about.

Regarding Hiraishin, or more specifically, its chakra formula, please let me know whether or not you'd be okay with Minato marking your characters with it. The mark can be applied with even a touch and it'll never disappear even if Minato dies, so you're basically stuck with it. This doesn't harm your character in any way and they probably won't even know, but he'll be able to teleport to them at any time (within the allowed areas, of course.) It could be a great asset for a friend, or a nightmare for an enemy, so it's up to you.

Other than that, I look forward to having fun with you guys. If you have any questions, you can find me on Plurk.

Hi Satori and welcome back to the game! You've certainly picked one heck of a character to try and tackle. I'm looking forward to it! I've only watched Shippuden up until the middle of the giant battle arc and then fell out of it for a while because of fillers, but I know enough to know who he is!

This will be fun.

As for me, I go by Parsnip and I just play Dean Winchester from Supernatural. If you want to mark him, go right ahead. He's certainly got plenty of other marks all over him (and on his ribcage too for that matter), what's one more?

Again, welcome back!

Thank you, I really like this place. I've actually played him off and on for years, and I wanted to try Haven again, so I thought I'd go with Minato. This is the first time I've played him in an actual group, though, so I'm excited to see how it goes. Hah, Naruto is known for its fillers. I gave up on the anime years ago because of it.

It will be.

Nice to meet you. And, okay, if it ever comes up.

Thanks again.

Ahah... yeah. I only watched as much of it as I did because my brother insisted on watching it every week. It's a good show! It's just that the filler is rather painful.

And sure! not a problem. It's nice meeting you too!

woah minato's one guy i didn't expect-- but he's super cool so I'M EXCITED.

welcome back to haven, satori! i'm kosy and i play sora and yuri lowell from tales of vesperia. as for the marking, i'm fine with that.

Heh, I don't see many Minatos around, so that's understandable. He is super cool, so me too.

Thank you, it's good to be back. Nice to meet you, too. Hopefully they'll get a chance to interact. And okay, noted. Thanks again.

Nice to meetcha! I'm Dani and I play this girl here, Shino "Sinon" Asada from Sword Art Online. Uh, the novels.

No idea if it'll come up, but he's free to mark her for whatever reason!

Nice to meet you, too. I saw you around a lot last time, it's awesome to see a Sinon. I was originally going to come back as Heathcliff, or maybe Yuuki since I love both of them. It would probably be Heathcliff, though, he's my favorite.

Thank you, we'll see what happens.

Haha whoa, I didn't actually think anyone really knew her here! This is actually really exciting!

And I must say those are both excellent choices and I am fully in support of either of them *o* But for now, I'll be sure to throw tags at Minato and see how that goes!

Yes, it is. There needs to be more novel readers, the ones who came into the series for the anime are missing so much.

Yes. We'll see how it goes later on. I want to get Minato established first, so that'll be great.

Part of me still cries inside that it's so close and yet so far from covering the third arc, aha.

But of course!

I know. SAO really got so much better starting with GGO. The New-ALO arcs are my favorite.

Question, though. How have you translated Sinon here, like with ALO's game mechanics and all? Any time I've played an SAO character in a group, I've just given them a physical body with all their skills intact.

Sinon came here with her avatar translated into a physical body, yup! So she's got her skills + the typical Cait Sith race abilities as well as the power to pull out wings from nowhere and fly around. I've also admittedly been playing around a bit with the fact that the extra appendages are now real and she doesn't exactly have control over them - her tail and ears can give away her mood just like in ALO, but they also affect the way she hears things just because her ears can now move independently of one another.

And since the novels didn't really give us any details on how the bow and arrow weapons work (limited ammunition vs. unlimited) I've got her having to find actual arrows and keep track of how many she's got left and in usable condition |Da

I see, that's actually really cool. That's basically what I've done in the past, too, so I get it. I would do the same thing about her new body parts, too, it'd be really interesting to suddenly have your normal ears replaced with cat ears and stuff.

I wish it had elaborated on stuff like that. I wanted to see the two legendary weapons Sinon and Klein wanted. But yeah, that's a good idea. What about for Sword Skills? I've always just made them happen like they did in-game until they were interrupted or completed, hits and extra effects included. Like a special ability or something since the system isn't there to guide them.

Sinon admittedly hasn't used any of her bow skills (Exploding Arrow I'm assuming will utterly wreck the arrows in question which she can't really afford to do outside of emergencies, and she hasn't had an opportunity in which Retrieve Arrow would come in handy) so it hasn't come up for me yet... Although I do know that while Eugeo was around, he was able to manipulate reality using the System Commands, so leaping off of that it would probably be possible to have attacks still "guided" as if by the system even if it isn't necessarily in place here? Hmm...

Hm. That's probably how I would do it here, too. Like I said, I've just had them 'guided' anyway even without system assist before, so it wouldn't be a problem. It's technically their ability anyway, so there's no reason it wouldn't be able to work the same way in a different setting (for the sake of roleplay.)

Aah, this is really making me want to play Heathcliff again. Do you play any others from SAO?

Yes good perfect.

I don't actually have accounts for anyone else from SAO, although I did consider making one for Yuuki in the past because she's such an adorable ball of badassery. But at this point it'd require a reread of Mother's Rosario, and I don't think my heart is ready for that right now :'D

That would be awesome, she's really fun to play, I've done it a few times off and on. And that novel is too much, so emotional. Poor Yuuki, she was so sweet and cool.

>It has been a week since Yuuki died, and her funeral had just ended.

I felt so bad when I read that line. I still do.

It's one of those things where you know it's coming and dread it, and then you get to the actual part and everything is tragic and beautiful and suddenly you're trying to read through your tears...

Or maybe that's just me.

omg minatooooooo ;A;

hi satori, welcome to haven! :) i'm lena, and i play miyamura here, as well as izumo (

tamer) and kaoru (

gimmicks)! and just for the record, i'm totally okay with hiraishin for any of my chars, even if one of them (miss tsun izumo cough) might not be all that happy about it, haha!

but i'm looking forward to seeing him around! :D hope you have fun here~

Thanks. Nice to meet. I've only seen your Izumo around before, but she's great. They could talk about their respective summons if they met, it'd be fun. And noted about Hiraishin, thanks.

Thank you, I'm looking forward to it, too. I'm sure I will.

ahhh, thank you so much!! i'm glad you like her :D she'd definitely love to meet another summoner, even if they aren't demons, haha!

You're welcome. Would foxes and big frogs even get along?

I might need to ask about Minato's summons, though, since they're technically teleported from a mountain where they live w hen summoned. I don't know if they could actually make it to Haven or not.

haha probably! izumo's foxes have the same kind of attitude as gamabunta, tbh.

ahh good question! i know some summons are allowed... izumo's and shiemi's are, at least. :/a it can't hurt to ask!

Oh wow, its been ages since I've played with a Minato.

Hi! I'm Lel. Also a newbie, so I'll just have Conan here. Once they meet, I'm perfectly alright with him being tagged.

I've played him off and on with friends for years now, whenever he reappears in the manga. It'll be nice to play him officially in a group for once.

Hello~ That's cool, these two could team up for detective work at some point or something. Haven's got plenty of mysteries. Noted, thanks.

That could be fun, actually! Conan's going to need some adults to work through. Since there isn't a handy police force...

Wow it's a Minato!! It's nice to meet you my name is Yvett and I roleplay Haru Miura from Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

I hope you have fun roleplaying Minato in Haven

Also I'm perfectly fine with letting him mark Haru should it ever happen!

i am so sorry for your misfortune, asuka is a horrible roommate.

but hello and welcome! I'm hime and I play asuka ( obviously ) and Zoe Hange from Shingeki no Kyojin

I'm actually not sure what happened with that. My accepted notice said he was in 1.001 with you guys, but he's listed in 2.001 on the apartment page. Either way, hi, and thank you.

that's odd. See where he is in the mingle log and then get into contact with blue, she'll probably help you get things straighten out.

HELLO STRANGER...! good to see you back again... and with a cute papa what more could I ask for--?!

I'm looking forward to getting CR with you again!!

HELLO. It's nice to be back again, I missed this place.

So am I, it was a lot of fun playing with you last time. I hope we can get something going again now, too.

We definitely will!! I will see to that... :>

Hah, good to hear. I have an idea in mind for a post or two anyway, you could always get in on that once the time comes if you want.
