If you can point me out something of Loz's past, I'd be more than happy to bring him in. However, all that's there right now is "Classified".
...yeah.
So, even if it means PMing me a Wikipedia page, I'll need some past before I can push Loz up On Deck.
Please git 'er done! I wanna evil guy in this!

Could you at least tell me what game he's from? I can work off of that.

Goodness, we only have two OCs in this one! ;D Howabout that! Yazoo's in. Welcome to the Deck! NO SLOTS OF ANY KIND REMAIN. Keep posted, though-- if the plot requires it, I may open this back up for applications.
CAMEO PEOPLES! You'll be PM'd when it comes your time. In the PM, you'll get a lowdown on what's happened, (though I still encourage reading along with the plot,) and information on the plot.
Yes, I'll be trusting you all not to give away plot info related to your character. Blabbing will get you booted, though.
And main peoples? Get posting!

Okay, I think I've gone part of the way towards solving the two text puzzles Rocket has laid out for us, although I strongly suspect I need a better translator and/or one of the languages isn't the right one. Still, it's my best attempt. TEXT: Nic Nie Jest Stale LANGUAGE: Polish(?) TRANSLATION: Nothing Is not Constantly (In this case it was either 'nothing' or 'small potatoes'. If this RP ends up being about potatoes, I will be VERY surprised indeed!) TEXT: Tema Minevikus on Teie Tulevikus LANGUAGE: Estonian(??) TRANSLATION: (this had to be done piece-meal, so I'm not confident it's right) Tema -her; him; his or her; his Minevikus -in the past on -is; there's Teie -you all Tulevikus -in the future Anyone think they can help?

Ooh. Nice work finding the second one. (The second text hint was hidden in the Castle Oblivion Quest image as an animated image. If you sit around long enough, it'll change and show you that text.)
Doing nicely so far, especially for this having only begun! Keep in mind, though, that those phrases were put there knowing you'd translate 'em eventually. ^_^ Don't think they won't be confusing.
I won't be helping you guys figure out the clues, but I will tell you when you figure something out correctly. For example, the two languages you've picked out are correct for each text. Make a guess here (or in a PM to me if you don't want to share your findings) and I'll let you know if the gist of it is right.
You're also right that your translator is in major need of non-suckness. What're you using?
And I'm not commenting on the potatoes. >.>

For the first one: InterTran. Second one was done using the assorted tools found here. Out of curiosity -- and I realize this is almost entirely off topic --... Rocket, are you multi-lingual? Just curious. EDIT: Do we have to wait for Dante to post, or can Mickey and Magus talk for a bit in the meantime?

I... know a bit of Spanish! >.>
Other than that, no.
Your translation sites aren't as good as the tool I'm using is all. ^_^
Best of luck with that. I'll tell you what translation thing I'm using, though, after you figure out those two bits!
-EDIT - Feel free to do that. I'll only really be picky about post order in battles or tense situations. Be careful not to be rude to Dante by ignoring him, though. And try not to leave a potential partner behind or offended. IC and OOC.
Just.... you know. A little bit of talking is okay, like one or two more posts from you and Mickey, but beyond that I'll ask for a hold off. We're not going to ignore Dante or put him in an awkward starting position!
-'NUTHER EDIT - Hey look! Dante posted, so similar rules now apply. Bilby's already posted 'em in his post though, so everythign I'm about to say is just future reference. (...riiiight?)
You huys go right on talking, all three of you. I'll interupt at one point, and then the posting order will matter. And stop if you decide to go after the door. That'd be my cue.
Until then, roam around.
-S'MORE - Looks like I'm a hypocrite.
ARKE! GET YER LAZY BUM OVER HERE AN' GIMME A HISTORY FOR WEISS!
Weiss has been moved to LAST ON DECK. I'll put him back after I get a history.
This also means Loz is currently set to be the first Cameo.
If it comes time for a cameo, and I still don't have a history, Weiss will REMAIN at the bottom.
So git 'er done!

So... are we going to find out what the source of the glow was? If I had to guess I'd say it's connected to that podium somehow; am I right?

Well, I'm not giving out hints.
...all that many.
...much.
...
. . . . . .
BAH!
The glow won't be explained directly, but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
At least, once the story gets going! ^_^
And podium isn't really what I meant. Remember that platform that brings the door up a bit? That's what I meant. I'll go clarify that now.
And that's ALL I'm going to say.
...about the glow.
I won't deny being surprised that you're not asking why all the lights went out, or why the only light on in the Castle is that first hall. But that's just me, I suppose. >.>
