Description

Name: Asa Niles
Age: 38
Gender: Male
Height: 6'0"
Nationality: African American
Personality: Asa is typically a reserved man. In social situations he only speaks when spoken to. He is not book-smart, but he knows the law of the land and how to survive and make a living. Even in the pastures while herding his 'cattle' he tries to remain distance and avoid bonding with the creatures.

History: Asa was born Ohio. He has worked on farms and ranches his entire life as hired help. With the news of a new frontier, Asa drove his herd west along with many others towards the Gwangi settlement. Now he is one of the primary suppliers of meat and leather to the town. He has also helped capitalize on trade for many other resources for his new home. He raises mostly iguanadons but he rotates side species annually.

========================================

BATTLE DINO/MOUNT:

Name: Perry
Gender: Male
Species: Medusaceratops
Height: 20ft long, 2 tons.
Misc: Perry is Asa's trusty steed. He rides the ceratopsian around the ranch to maintain his cattle and other farm animals. Perry has strength, defense, and speed; just enough to keep the pea brains in line. Though Perry has a fabulous display the townsfolk know not to stare for too long. He has a short temper when it comes to any human other than his handler.

===================

PET:

Name: Ash
Gender: Female
Species: Velociraptor
Height: 5ft long, 50 lbs
Misc: Ash is the equivalent of a shepherd or sheep dog. She helps round up and steer the herd. Her distinctive call mixed with primal fear are excellent tools for the job. Outside of the task at hand she is a real sweetheart. As said before she hs many dog-like characteristics. She is very loyal and warm to the human hand unlike her pink counterpart.

Hello! I have a question I would like to ask you.
I have recently found that the gwangi gold rush is an AMAZING group! but sadly is now a closed group, If I am correct, the group was for a competition, and then stopped being active once the event was over.

I would like to make a group like this, where it's cowboys and dinosaurs, but to all my ideas, for some reason I feel as if I am copyrighting this group entirely, so I would like to ask you if it would be ok for me to create a a group like this (and if it's ok, the same name, but with a bit of a twist, "Gwangi: Fool's gold", or something along the lines of that).

The rules would almost be the same, carnivores can be 4 meters tall, and herbivores can be 5 meters tall, the land will also stretch from Wyoming to Texas. The contest will be something like this, but of course a different plot for every contest. When contests aren't a thing, we will have a page for role playing if anyone is interested in that. To keep every challenge going, the winner will receive $20 into points, but none of this can happen if we don't have your permission.

I hope I receive an answer from you, and I hope you have a great day! (or week, I'm not too sure lol) (Also I do realize I commented on your other picture, but I was quite lazy and I had asked the founder, but he isn't on sadly.)

You can make a group similar if you wish, I do not mind and i am sure my co-creators would not mind. I would just like to ask that it would in no way be affiliated with our group. "Cowboys and Dinosaurs" is a pretty rough concept so I think you can work with that idea in particular without necessarily backpacking off of our already existing guidelines which we have laid out for our little group here.
To clarify: Yes, it is okay to make a similar group. Just do not use "Gwangi" in the name or likeness or affiliation.

Not trying to be rude at all but honest question: How are non-white people to be treated in this setting?

The world itself doesn't have any set discriminations. Asa himself is a respected member of Gwangi culture. BUT whether your character is racist or sexist or not and you choose to portray is up to you. It won't hurt your score in any way shape or form.

So what app are we all going with?

Tatetops In reply to xayshade [2012-10-19 20:56:02 +0000 UTC]

Right. I forgot to mention that we are not accepting applications right now. It is advised to wait until the launch journal before you even consider submitting to DA. Those journals should be up tonight or early tomorrow. So hold tight

xayshade In reply to Tatetops [2012-10-19 21:00:31 +0000 UTC]

Oh I figured that. I was just confused you all have different apps. I'm probably going with the white one though

Tatetops In reply to xayshade [2012-10-19 21:14:54 +0000 UTC]

Right-o. Like I said, the app-design is up to you. You could be as creative or uncreative with it as you want.

Tatetops In reply to xayshade [2012-10-19 20:46:25 +0000 UTC]

The mods have decided that there was no form of app that would be big enough to cover all the things we or the artist wanted in one distinctive way. So we decided that the app design is up to the artist. If you want a plain white background that will be fine, if you want a crazy blue one that's fine too. App requirements were JUST released so go check those out before you wing it [link]
