Single Thread RP Limbo.

(I have no idea what any of that means.)
(Metagaming is giving characters information they should not logically have. In my opinion, omniscience across timelines is basically metagaming when it's for minor gods.
I would have been more accepting about it if I was using, say, the Warrior, as they've been very active in this timeline since they first took action in it to save Esther's life, but Mirror is rarely in this timeline and even when she is, she continues to be careful about not being too active to avoid being noticed by the enemy.
Bunnying/godmodding is controlling another player's character without permission, which is pretty much always considered a bad thing to do in any roleplay.)
(Have you not realized this is my first time dabbling in an RP?)
(That's fine, but staying on the safe side is often better than taking risks with things like this.)
(Like I said, I'm not mad, just annoyed because there was no real communication, when even a simple question of "would it be fine if I did this?" would have made things much easier; I would likely have at least been okay with the magic sensing, but due to the lack of communication there wasn't room to okay that and say no to the things I didn't want to be known instantly.)
(Going back I realize she didn't actually say her name, although I don't believe it was a stretch for him to know the name of an almost normal human. Sorry.)
(By technicality, if he'd know her name, it would be Esther; Mirror is just the name she started using after meeting her counterpart to avoid confusion, as she considered her world to be the mirror world instead of being her normal world like before. Most people, like her classmates from school, and her family, still know her as Esther because she hasn't used the name Mirror for long (And in the case of her family, her parents refuse to call her Mirror anyway), making that the more likely name to be known (even if it would lead to slight confusion on FT_Esther's part before Mirror got a chance to clarify it to them).)
(Before I continue doing something I love and arguing further,
A. If you insist, I'll go back and tone the omniscience down a bit.
B. Why don't we let the others decide what's/who's right about this situation?)
(For the sake of getting this resolved fast (I have videos to watch and maybe some games to play >. <), I'd rather just have the omniscience toned down to at most knowing her original name and sensing the magic though I will correct you on it being ice because it's actually the summer version of ice, AKA water.)

(It being inaccurate was intentional, but I'll go back...)
 
(That's why I did the strikethrough, I had a feeling the ice mistake was on purpose and it can stay for comedic effect.
Ice and water are the same category here in Veanlin anyway, so, same difference applies.)
(Good. Now that this is resolved, can we go back to our regularly scheduled RP?)
 
(Reposted with minor edits)
Normally, I'd be the one to threaten to kill you about now.

*The Rope god says to the unknown newcomer, floating into view and abandoning what he was just doing.*

However, I've learned to not threaten a potential friend. And besides, then I wouldn't look the the most awesome member of our party! When I am!

Allow me to introduce myself as The Rope god! The wizard of Rope in all realms!

(Perception d20:19)
*He uses his partial(and weakened, due to being in the wrong universe) omniscience to see what she's all about.*
Traces of magic... Name's Esther...
You intrigue me. Wait, wait, let me guess... Ice magic?

"...Water magic, actually."
??? does not seem amused about Rope God stating he'd normally threaten to kill her.
 
*The Rope god looks very disappointed.*

You don't look particularly dangerous. Or useful.

*The Rope god looks at Esther, very clearly knowing he's above her.*

I've slain gods. Braved the deepest, darkest caves of my world. Mastered whip technique so well I've made new ones. I can tie knots you didn't even know existed. I can make great omelettes...!

*He begins to float a few inches in the air.*

What can you do? Prove yourself.

<I'm too tired to correct this guy on which name to use for now...>
"Honestly, best I have for myself is a few leadership skills right now. I would have left my mission up to someone more competent if I had a choice."
She sounds annoyed.

"You can also fail to dodge a spider bite. I suggest you get your ego under control, weakling."
 
(Well, seeing a page long argument is not what I expected to see when I came back from two back to back algebra exams. Glad to see you guys sorted it out.)
*Tethin hands the newcomer a slab of meat before stalking off with Bright to catch some food.*

*Rope points at Riolu, very angrily.*
I've killed things more powerful than you for lesser insults!

*He proceeds to point at Tethin*
Don't help her! She could be plotting to stab us in the back! You never know what evil lies in one's heart.

*Realizing he's coming off as what he just warned against, The Rope god floats back down to the ground, trying (and failing) to look less angry.*

I'm going to leave you... People... To your business.

*He returns to the camp and stokes the fire, whilst summoning fuel for it.*
 
"..."
<Right, because I look like the type of person who could deal more than chip damage to a slime right now.>
<Not even going to get started on the fact that tricking others in my situation would be the stupidest strategy available.>
 
*Tethin and Bright go off along to hunt for food. (Roll for sneak D20:11) (Roll for perception D20:18) Tethin and Bright cautiously make their way through the forest and pend time tracking down some animals. There seems to be a sparce amount in this world. They both make some noise, but spot a few animals they can hunt down, including deer and wolves. There also seems to be some abnormally large tracks in the dirt but Tethin is not interested in investigating. (Roll for performance D20:17) Tethin and Bright hunt down a sizable amount of food, a few deer, rabbits, and even a wolf. Tethin returns to camp and notices Rope is still frustrated and hands him some spiced bear meat while he prepares the other animal bodies for cooking.
 
??? Would have decided to head to the camp and sit down at a bit of a distance from everyone else.
 
*The Rope god takes the spiced meat and sits on a large knotted rope near the campfire. He tries, and fails, to see anything else about (Who the heck is that girl? I say this in and out of character since both names seem to be wrong.). All there is is Rope God staring at her in a very confused manner.*

*He delegates himself to stoking the fire again.*

(It is Mirror, but until she properly introduces herself I'll refer to her with ??? because otherwise FT_Esther's gonna get annoyed at me)
She just ignores Rope God.
