That's a case in which the villain wouldn't be played as a villain, but as a regular character. Which can totally done. She just didn't want him as a villain.

That's what it usually boils down to. If someone's a good roleplayer applying as a villain... we usually accept them as a player. But to be considered a "VILLAIN", you have to be one of Xenos's villains. Then you get the goofy jobclasses and the title. Sephiroth isn't one of our villains. He's just a character. Then again, there are some villains who are good for only villainous things... like Jenova or Kefka. They just don't fit into anything other than just Villain. I mean, seriously, can anyone imagine a sane Kefka wandering the world? Yeah, I didn't think so. Oh, Vince, Setz is right. I did mean it as a compliment and a fact. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And that's the old one. Based on a true story, and I feel like Jess is going to hit her head on the keyboard for even posting it again. Oh, well. I'll post the new version later, when I don't have to pee.

I was actually gonna mention that. XD
I almost want to play Kefka. Seriously, though. And I wouldn't play him as the pushover everyone seems to think he is. He actually succeeded in becoming a god. Can Seph boast that? Hell no. </fangirl>

I love that comic. XD
So can they, as a player, go around doing villainous things without the title of villain? I know Sephiroth isn't a villain, be he also doesn't act like a villain.
I only bring this all up because I'm thinking that if/when I apply for another character, it'd be neat to have a villain. Alexander is such a goody-goody, after all, and while that is quite fun, it would also be nice to be a sarcastic evil bastard/bitch sometimes.
I've narrowed it down to:
Celes still as a general in the Gesthalian Empire, who wouldn't be very evil (or sarcastic) at heart, but who could be on the wrong side. I've played FFVI twice, so I think I could play her okay.
Seifer, although I'd be playing him still thinking he was doing Ultimecia's will, being a little crazy in that sense, and I don't know if that'd be cool with everyone.
Laguna, who I...well...have a lot of experience with, let's say.
Yunalesca, who is both a villain and female, which are two things I've wanted to try, but who is not from FFVIII. I've played FFX enough times to have her down okay, I'd say. I'm no Tidus, but I know my FFX.
Quistis, who is female and from FFVIII, but who is not a villain. Also, she is my favorite character EVAR!
Ironically, the only characters who fit all three bills (female, villain, and FFVIII) are the three forbidden characters. Possessed Edea, Adel (possessed or otherwise), and Ultimecia. C'est la vie, eh? Hahaha!
Anyways, I'm not sure if/when I'll apply for a second (provided I qualify), but what do you guys think I should do if I were to?
Oh, Setzer, you totally should! It's not like you really have any problems being active. No more than the other multiple-character members. Besides, you and I are the only Gurus without alternate accounts. Then again, you and I are the only real Gurus, since Squall and Xenos are supposed to be admins. XD

Aerith- <3 THANKS! It's a big confidence boost ^_^ I think now, I'll be able to play Vincent with a little more self-assurance, whereas at first I was under the distinct impression I'd look like a fool... '^^ It would seem, I was wrong...thankfully.
Btw, an...interesting if not quite amusing comic. And based on a true story? That saddens me... lol

Alex, if you figured a way to app evil!Yuna somehow through ridiculous plot twists (I don't know, she thinks she should follow Yevon and use summons to attack infidels or some shit), I would LAWL AND LOVE YOU SO HARD.
But Yunalesca would be <3 too. Just keep in mind that her history might be a BITCH to write, as all the game really says of her is that she had hawtsex with Zaon and then proceeded to use his seksy bawd to make the first Final Aeon and kill Sin, etc. etc. etc. Also, her daddy was Yu Yevon, so that might be tough to work with. If you do your research and stuff, and really think about all that, though, I'm sure you could do it very well.
Also, Quistis is hotter than everyone.
Also, random and I'm late to say it but I WANT A YUNA TO HAVE CUTE TIDUS/YUNA HAND-HOLDING SCENES. ;__;

G'hee. <3
First. Alex, if you were to play evil!Celes... I might be a little happy because being on the wrong side kinda made her bad ass. But tragically so, and that's cool. And it would be fun to play with if I applied as Kefka and all. There would be that whole powerplay thing... and maybe she could go through that whole existential breakdown because of some creepy and never-before-done flashforward because of the Time Kompression. You know, if you get tired of playing a baddie.
I'm having way too much fun with this.

You aren't the only one Setz. I'd find it interesting to see evil characters that may have been good once...lol to that!
Btw, has anyone seen my mate's application? He applied as Auron. I thought it was a cool little outlook. Check it out some time (obviously admin would be discussing it, so this is mostly directed at non-admin members...'^^) as it might be a nice little read.

Ah, interesting feedback so far. Hmm... Mushy scenes with Tidus are tempting, but I don't think evil Yuna would fly with the other Admins. Hahaha!
Write a past for Yunalesca? Hell, I haven't even gotten around to giving Alex a past. But I'm sure I could patch something together from Meachen's ramlings and all we know of Zanarkand.
And yes, Quistis is quite attractive. ^_^
Setzer...that actually sounds pretty cool. A Kefka would probably boost my top choice to Celes, rather than Quistis and Yunalesca (who are tied for first at the moment, with Seifer pulling close in second and Laguna way in the back). Tempting indeed, although I'm not sure what you mean by "powerplay". *feels stupid*

Powerplay: fighting each other for control. At least, I assume that's what he means.
I have no desire to play as a second character, but if I did I'd want to play as someone different. I'd want a challenge. Beatrix, maybe. I've never RPed as a female. (Snide remarks about Kuja's gender should be tactfully omitted, thank you very much). Scarlet would be fun, too.

Ahh, makes sense now. I think "powerplay" and my mind goes to hockey. I don't even like hockey! Damn my Canadianism...
Ahem. Right. Yes, that would be quite cool. =D

(Finally able to actually see the image. My school computers wouldn't show up many images from this site for some stupid and unknown reason...) You look awesome Aerith! I've never actually seen someone Cosplay Quistis, but I think that you by far get her the closest out of everyone! Just don't take out her whip...people would hide. lol you look awesome, simple enough. For a long time now, I've been considering Cosplaying KH2 Riku and Zell (though the hair's a slight problem XD and tat... lol) and I've thought of Cosplaying Roxas...and a few villains...but I doubt I'll ever actually pull them off lol but I'll get Riku at least! I must! XD Vincent would be cool to Cosplay lol
