Hey guys. For those who may remember, Kor and I were trying to start a Power Rangers RP a while ago. It didn't really go through, but then we tried again. It still didn't go through, so we left it alone. Kor and I have been discussing lately and we want to give this another shot. Third time is a charm after all.
To all who are interested, we aren't posting characters yet, so you can hold off on the profiles. We are still gathering details on the premise, but at the moment we have decided for this to be based off largely of Power Rangers Zeo. We have also decided to keep from using actual characters from the show (Tommy, Adam, etc...), but Zordon will exist, as well as Zedd and Rita (correct me if I made a mistake Kor). The main henchmen will be the Putties, as they are the most popular and easiest to portray.
So please post if you are interested, and I promise we will get this one working. I will post the profile skeleton for characters really soon. If you have any questions/suggestions/comments, please feel free to post them here OR PM myself or Kor.
-
Sure we can do that, or allow some fc's maybe if some really want to rp certain ones, wither just baddies, baddies and background ones like Bulk and Skull, ect. Though most players, or all, may want to make up their own characters so we can go with oc's only for now I guess. Though others interested can speak up what they want and such.
Would you prefer to start with the MMPR then go to Zeo, or start right off with the Zeo, I'm easy either way.
I guess you'll be taking the red ranger position?
-
I think it will be much easier if we start with Zeo. Although, we can do what Mighty Morphing did as a transition towards it, and have the rangers search for their respective crystals separately.
Yes, if people really want to play as certain FC's, then we can allow them.
Yes, I will be taking the Red ranger position.
When I put up the character skeleton, we can go into more detail about how the characters will work.
-
They'd need a reason to go searching for their crystal, unless they start off as rangers and not as being chosen by Zordon as happens in the first episode of season 1.
-
Hello:
It would be nice if there is at least 5 players, so all normal-coloured Rangers can be taken, but if this is like a re-imaginated version, then it might be cool if all characters are OCs, since that can allow some freedom for background info and how they will become Power Rangers.
But that is just a suggestion :DD .
-
Yes, oc's do provide the most flexibility.
-
That's what I'm hoping for. I'm not sure how many people will be interested though, but we can only wait and see what happens. I would like to have five rangers though.
-
That would be nice. or we can do like some of the later seasons have done if we have only 3 and add some later on.
Also instead of having each person having to go after their own crystal maybe they can go together. Otherwise we'd have to do seperate rp threads for the different private rp's of each person going after their zeo crystal.
I think I may be the blue color. Not sure on gender yet, but plenty of time to decide.
-
I'll be Bulk and Skull as a link to the previous Power rangers series..
-
I like the idea of maybe the Zeo morphers and maybe instead of the machine empire using the Mighty Morphin Era Villians. I really like them better then the machine empire.
-
the machine empire was not a very good set of villans
-
I agree about the villains. I mean I liked the COGs, but the Machine King himself was really lame. Rita, Zedd, Goldar, etc... have always been my favorite villains.
-
I agree with that. And with Rita and the others you could get a good laugh sometimes with how they were acting.
-
Yes, quite a few comical moments came from the villains themselves.
I'm posting the character bio for creating characters:
Name
Gender
Age
Ranger Color (Only for ranger characters)
Ranger Weapon (Blaster/dagger and whatever you also want) (Only for ranger characters)
Fighting Style (If you don't know a name, then just describe it)
Appearance (Non ranger form)
Personality
Short Bio
I will eventually post rules/regulations regarding the creation of a character.
I will for now post a list of the ranger colors and who has taken them. I will eventually post a character list.
FC's
Goldar - LBTFan13
Zordon - LBTFan13
Alpha - LBTFan13
Zedd - LBTFan13
Rita - Kor
Rito - Rocky
Scorpina/Sabrina - Rocky
Bulk - Nick22
Skull - Nick22
Zeo Rangers
Zeo Ranger 1 Pink - Nick22
Zeo Ranger 2 Yellow - Rocky
Zeo Ranger 3 Blue - StarfallRaptor
Zeo Ranger 4 Green - Chiletrek
Zeo Ranger 5 Red - LBTFan13
Gold Zeo Ranger - Kor
If need be, we can certain add more colors depending on how many people we end up having interested.
-
I'll be Pink- since its my favorite color :)
-
I added you to the list Nick, and that's fine if your also Bulk and Skull.
I was planning on being Zordon and Goldar. Zordon so I can keep the plot moving and Glodar becuause he is my favorite villain of all time.
-
sounds cool guys..
-
Will Bulk and Skull be high school students like in the first season or 2? forgot when that annoying (to me at least) stone (I think his name was) was introduced.
-
he was added a few seasons afterward.. we'll have them be high schoolers..
-
Yeah, having them as high schoolers will be easier.
I'm sorry I'm not really contributing much to the table at the moment. I do want to get things into more motion, but college is kicking my butt lately.
-
I'm interested. If it's all good, I'd like to be the Blue Ranger.
-
Sounds like 2 colors are left.
I guess I should post info on the gold ranger, though he won't be rped to often. And likely won't hang out with the other rangers, at least not at first and if their age differences is to high it would seem odd I'd think. Though no reason he can't also like going to the juice bar that I think his name is Ernie, runs.
And no he's not a kid. I dislike the idea of a little kid ranger like they had in Turbo. And I recently found out the japanese white ranger from what became season 2 here also was a little kid. Yuk.
Not sure if Lbt13 would prefer I post info on the gold ranger or leave it a secret. I'm easy either way.
-
Kor I'm fine with whatever you decide. If you feel that your character will be more effective if kept a secret, you can do that. Otherwise, you can certainly post your character info here.
Nice to have you with us Starfall! :D
We just need somebody for the remaining two colors and we will be good.
It might also be good for somebody else to play as Lord Zedd or Rita. I don't want to be hogging all of the important characters, but if nobody else wants them then I can take over Zedd.
-
I could try doing Rita. I normally don't do villains well, but the ones in this case are so over the top they are very comedic. That is if you want to be sure the main 2 are taken first & unless someone else would rather do Rita. Then I can do one of the underlings of theirs. One of the more useless comedic ones or something.
Not sure if Chiletrek is interested. Also not sure if you'd want to wait till more join or you have more time LBTFan13 or a bit of both. It would be nice to have all the colors taken, but there have been seasons where they started with less then 5 and added some rangers later on.
-
most of the time here have been 5 although thy have added a 6th in other seasons.
-
That is very true. I think we can start with the colors that we have, and then we can add more if people are interested later on.
I would send Chiletrek a PM and ask him if he's interested. We still have the yellow and green ranger spots open, so he could take one of those if he likes.
You guys can start posting your character profiles now if you'd like, just so we have them here. Just follow the profile skeleton I posted earlier.
-
though not every season started off with 5. Some started off with 3 or 4 and added some later.
-
One thing I'm a little confused about, which I shouldn't be.
Are we all being Zeo rangers? Or are we using any type of ranger but merely having it take place during Zeo.
I assumes we were all going to be Zeo rangers since the RP is taking place during Zeo.
-
I assumed the others would be zeo rangers. Not sure how to classify mine since original idea is original, though I could say he found a zeo crystal at some point before the rp. That would only slightly alter his history I mentioned to you before.
I assumed the others would either be given the zeo morphers similar to how the first rangers were in the first episode of season 1, or they'd go on some sort of quest similar to how the season 2 or 3 rangers did to get the ninja powers with them questing together, or some other sort of quest maybe like the quest for the zeo crystals where each is alone in their own quest.
-
Hello:
I think I can make the time to participate in this rpg, if I am allowed to. And I'd like to have the green color for the Power Ranger character. Still, I need to think on a bios for a character.
As for the setting, since I heard it was during the Zeo period, then we might have Zeo Morphers and powers, but I also thought this was a re-imagination, so that would allow for new characters and enemies. Also, it could be a parallel story to the Zeo Rangers, just like we have seen Croosover episodes in the different seasons of the serie.
-
that other idea may be the reason why first 2 attempts didn't work at making a power rangers rp since it was of mixed types like the forever red and once a ranger episodes.
-
one question I have, are we using the characters from the show or making our own?
-
Mine is an oc. Do you prefer to do an oc or an fc or an altered fc?
Anyone else with some character ideas you're not sure of?
-
Hello:
Even though the previous idea of making our own style of Power Rangers (I still remember my OC for that one), maybe this new idea of making a fixed setting could make things more organized. If OCs are the characters that will be used, that can give more freedom, specially for people that has not seen the serie in years (like me).
-
I agree with what you guys are saying in terms of why this RP didn't work in the first place, because we were all coming up with different types of rangers rather than having the same type. I think with this us all being the same type it will keep things organized as well.
Chiletrek, you can take your time in coming up with your bio. I still have to come up with mine as well, and I'll add you to the list for green.
-
True, original characters do give one a lot of freedom.
Also most if not all of the power rangers episodes are up on youtube last I looked and there is someone on bliptv who is doing the history of the power rangers where he does videos about each season. Each season of the power rangers he splits up into 2-3 episodes. So far he has gotten up through Wild Force.
They are mixed in with the rest of his videos. His talking abut the first 4 seasons and the first part of his video about turbo are on the page at: http://at4w.blip.tv/?sort=custom;view=arch...;nsfw=dc;page=6 (http://at4w.blip.tv/?sort=custom;view=archive;date=;user=at4w;s=posts;nsfw=dc;page=6) you can go backward from there to pages 5, 3, 1, to look for the rest if any are interested.
-
I've updated the character profile and the character list post.
For all anybody who is NOT making a ranger character, ignore Ranger Color and Ranger Weapon in the profile skeleton. If you want to have an OC who is not a ranger but can still fight, then you can add a fighting style.
Also, I added an FC list so we can keep track of who's doing what. I left Zedd open in case somebody wanted to do him. Otherwise, I can certainly take control of him.
-
I guess the person who does Zordon can also do Alpha 5. and I guess whoever does Zedd, Rita and Golda can do their more comedic underlings, forgot their names. Or maybe anyone can post as them if they get an idea for a funny line. Fenster is mainly in his lab so doesn't really need a player I guess. He can be handled the same I guess.
-
So are going to be starting the rp anytime soon>?
-
I guess the others lost interest in this. If you want maybe just the 2 of us can do this. I would not mind.
-
Lets wait for some others to post..
-
If you want. But we can do 3 characters between us. Some power ranger seasons started with only 3 characters. I think jungle fury went quite a while with just the 3 ranger characters before they added in any others.
-
Alright.. But i'll contact the others before starting anything..
-
Ok, no hurry either way. I'm not surprised interest dropped, it has always done so before.
-
I can't believe I let it happen again. I'm so sorry guys, I completely went off the grid over Thanksgiving week, and as a result I completely forgot about this RP. I know this is the third time we have tried, and by this point people are probably getting annoyed with me that I keep starting something and then never going through with it. I hate myself for doing it and I deeply apologize. The last couple weeks have been mayhem for me, and I have two weeks before finals which means I will be getting even busier.
Having said that, I am more than willing to continue with this RP, I just haven't found the time to sit down and really work on it. I know, I sound like a broken record, but that's what I've been dealing with. If you guys are still interested, please let me know and we can certainly continue with it.
Again, I deeply apologize for letting this crash after we seemed to get some small bit of interest.
-
Its allright LBTfan13. I'm interested and we can start in a couple week after your done with your exams..
-
That might be best for me, otherwise I'll start the RP and then will never get the chance to post.
We can still work on our characters until then. I have the profile for my character ready, just need to tweak it around a bit. Feel free to post your profile if you have it ready.
-
No hurry. Maybe when the rp starts we don't have to start with the plot immediately. We can have the teens rp some bits we've seen pieces of in episode. Though in this case it may be before the plot starts. Time in school before or after school is over, on the way to school, the juice bar (if it exists) where they hang out somewhat after school, at a park, ect. So the players can get to know their and each other's characters better so by the time the plot starts they may know each other better.
Unless it's better to be more like in episode 1 of season 1, where the folks didn't know each other, really, before the series plot starts.
-
I like the idea of starting the RP like the TV show normally starts, with the teens either in school or in some form of a general hangout like the juice bar.
I do recall that the very first episode of Season 1 did have the teens knowing each other as friends, just not having met up with Zordon yet. But I like your idea of having us RP in pieces before we actually get to the plot. That way it could give time for anybody else interested to come in.
-
They don't have to all be friends with each other. There could be connections just not with everyone knowing everyone else.
An example, though I don't remember exactly how the 5 teens in season 1 knew each other. But my example would be if Jason and zack being friends, billy is in one of Jason's karate classes, billy is friends with Trini who's friends with kimberly. Each character may not be friends with all the other 5, but there are connections.
I guess that will leave out my 6th gold ranger character unless he's someone's cousin or something. The something can be quite a few things, depending on what the other characters are, their hobbies ect.
Think I"ll watch episode 1 again of season 1.
-----------------------------------
Edit: I forgot how funny parts of the first episode was.
I got an odd idea concerning my gold ranger char, that I likely wont use since it's to weird and stupid.
-
sounds like an idea guys. i like the uidea of starting off with side stuff before getting into the main plot..
-
I thought folks may have fun doing that.
-
so we have 3 for sure, lets hope Rocky is still interested in joining this?
-
Has anyone asked him?
-
i haven't, yet... but i might..
-
If he was interested it would give us 3, which would be enough to get started.
-
Rocky makes 4. We have 3 currently..
-
That is even better. I do hope he is interested.
-
As long as we have at least three of the rangers covered, then we are in a good position. If we have Rocky, that puts us in an even better position.
-
Chiletrek may still be interested.
I wonder if Starfall still is.
Some folks may be busy in school so posting may slow down sometimes. Though it would be best if we knew who may be busy at times so we know to wait if they are busy.
If Chiletrek and Starfall still are that may give us all 6 rangers.
-
That's what I'm thinking. This week is most likely finals week for some, or the last week before finals like me, and people are just too busy to post. We can wait a little bit to see who is still interested.
If Chiletrek and Starfall are still interested, then yes we shall have all six rangers, which would be really nice to start off with. Otherwise, I'm sure we can find other people interested.
-
Hopefully if 1 or both of them are interested they will speak up. And if some are busy in school during the rp we can either pause the rp for a bit or slow down posting a lot till the time is over and the rp can pick up again.
-
Hello:
I am sorry for my absence, but now I have free time to spend here in GoF and I am still interested to play in this rpg :DD .
I am sorry if these questions were already answered, but:
Will be playing as OCs? (maybe for more flexibility?)
Will be a Zeo season or Zeo-like season? because I liked the idea of our characters having to look for their respective crystals, like in other seasons with each character looking for the destined power, maybe like other seasons or series like "The Mystic knights of Tir na Nog".
-
its alright chile. good to have you back.
-
I assume most or all are going to be oc's. My character is an oc. If I do my character by my ideas he'll not really be using a zeo crystal at all. Unless that comes in later or something.
Not sure what lbtfan13's ideas were.
Do you have certain preferences or ideas?
-
I'm sorry for the delay in replying. Finals are this week so I've been very busy.
To answer your questions:
We will be playing as OC's, for like you said flexibility purposes.
It's going to be like Zeo, but not exactly like it. We will be using the Zeo Crystals, and we will have to search for them. However, the Machine Empire is not involved at all. We are using the original villains from Mighty Morphing, which means Rita, Zedd, Goldar etc... Also, the main henchmen we fight will be the Puttie Patrol, because they are the most popular and the simplest.
I think it might be best if we wait a little bit before starting. Everybody most likely has finals of some sort so it will be difficult to start the RP. We can certainly post our characters though. I know I've said I would post mine a million times already, but school has really tied me down.
-
Some collages and universities are not out till later this month. Though perhaps those interested can post if they have time now or are still busy and when they will be free,so we all have an idea of a schedule.
I guess the characters should be posted before the rp starts.
-
Understandable Lbtfan. we can start next week..
-
Hello:
Well, next week should be a good time, I hope more people will be more free by then, like me :DD .
I should really start thinking in a character, and for others since I was invited to other rpgs but in another page... too many new characters :wacko :lol .
-
Sounds pretty good so far.
Do some of you folks have character ideas, even if they are just rough sketchy ideas?
-
I've had my idea sitting in my mind for a while now, but I've never gotten the chance to post it for some reason. I plan on posting it in the very near future so I can finally have it down.
One thing I realized is that we still have the spot of the Yellow Ranger open. I thought we had all six rangers covered, but I forgot about Yellow. We can leave that open in case somebody wants to join while the RP is in progress.
-
thats sounds like an idea lbt fan. we can give that to spmeome who joins after the rp has started.
-
One idea Kor and I were talking about was a change in the setting. Instead of high school, we're going with Angel Grove College, just to give it an updated feel.
I figured since I have it in my mind I would post my character profile. For lack of a better idea, I am basing the character off of myself.
Name: Robert Rinaldo - Rob
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Ranger Color: Red
Ranger Weapon: Zeo Laser Pistol, Zeo Blade, Red Zeo Sword
Fighting Style: Tae Kwon Do
Appearance:Black hair, brown eyes, light skin, various red tops (T-Shirts, Polo's, Long Sleeved, etc...), jeans, sneakers
Personality: Kind, Outgoing, Brave, Pure
Short Bio: Rob was always told he was destined for greatness. Enrolling into Angel Grove College seemed like the first step towards that greatness. Rob has trained in Tae Kwon Do since he was seven and continues to train on his spare time. He knows there is no such thing as perfect, as he always strives to do his best and better. Of course, he never realized what his true purpose would be.
-
college is a great idea I'll have Bulk and Skull be in college too.. as thier parents made them go to college..
-
can we create our own ranger designations and powers?
-
To answer your question Rocky, for this RP you may create your own ranger character, but in terms of power designation we are only using Zeo powers. We are keeping this RP realistic at the moment, so we will only be using 6 rangers as there are 6 in the actual Zeo series.
At the moment, the only ranger spot we have left is Yellow, but you are more than welcome to create a character for the Yellow ranger, you do not need to use the actual girl from the TV series.
-
so when are we starting this?
-
I have a pre 1st draft of my character info thing.
Name: John Flint
Gender: Male
Age: looks like early 20's
Ranger Color: Gold
Ranger Weapon: blaster bracelets (similar in appearance to space ghosts's bracelets, energy/laser sword (similar in appearance to a light saber),
Fighting Style: basic karate, some monkey kung fu
Appearance: red hair, brown eyes, pale skin, gold colored watch band, wraparound sunglasses have gold frames, casual shirts, pants & sneakers. Has the build of someone who works out to keep fit but not that of a body builder.
Personality: friendly, brave, somewhat inquisitive, intelligent.
Short Bio: He has started to attend college this same semister. Wasn't seen in the local high school earlier so may be he moved into the area. He is nice enough but doesn't talk about his past or is very vague about it.
-
When I get back from work tonight, I'm going to start the RP, just so we can have it running at least.
Very nice skeleton Kor. That will do well.
-
Thanks, I guess my char info thing is ok for now, though I'm sure there is a lot of room for it's improvement.
-
Looking forward to it guys :)
-
Hello:
I'm sorry for such late reply, but you all know how these days can be: with final exams and then the Christmas' frenzy-ness.
LBTFan13, I do have an idea for a character, based on the character I had for the previous RPG idea, I will send it to you via PM soon (I guess today) with some alterations, so you can tell me if it is fine, ok?
-
Sounds good Chiletrek! Just send it to me whenever you can.
The RP is open now, so just post your character profiles here before posting, and then everything should be good!
-
still noote sure what to call my character..
-
as far as a name? Maybe some here can suggest some names.
-
yes, any ideas will be appreciated
-
Do you have an idea for your character's hobbies or other things?
Any sorts of names you like or dislike?
-
Hello:
After I send LBTFan13 a PM and after I waited for the reply for a while, I received his reply with a "yes, but make changes"... or something like that. I admit I have been burned out lately with minimal doing of things I like and only doing things I need to do (like the daily data sending for the university). Now I will post what I thought for a character, the idea is very different for the setting and it is indeed, a modified version of my planned character for the previous rpg idea.
Name: Canis Starwolf.
Gender: Male
Age: 18 (is equivalent to human years).
Homeworld: Sirius.
Ranger Color: Zeo Ranger 4 Green.
Ranger Weapon: Blaster for long-range combat and Wind-Saber for close-range combat (preferred weapon, similar to the shadow and ocean sabers).
He always had the Wind-Saber, as memorial of his ancestors, but his new strenght as a Power Ranger will grant him new abilities for his Saber.
Fighting Style: Kendo-like specialist that makes him very effective with the use of a sword. He is also trained in Sirian martial arts, that could be considered a mix of several Earth's martial arts.
Appearance: Canis is an extraterrestrial who has physical characteristics of both a human and a dog. He has a mix of blue and green scaly-like skin and long wide black hair. Well built body, he oftens wears a large dark green tunic, black pants and his Holobelt that allows him to disguise himself as a human.
He uses a special Holo-Belt to disguise himself as a human. When disguised, he looks like a tall and strong white male human, short black hair, and even if the belt can also disguise part of his clothing it is always visible.
Personality: Brave and well trained that allows him to combat all the strange enemies he may encounter in the worlds he is sent to explore, but he is also very peaceful and warm-hearted, that facilitates his interaction with people, but still setting limits (for safety purposes).
Short Bio: Born in a world of proud warriors and great technological advancements, Canis grew getting knowledge of great values, combat skills and social interactions; he had a peaceful childhood and when he got enough age he decided to join the SP Exploratory Academy to become a deep-space explorer, he succedded and passed the academy with honors and became part of a team of special Scouts, with a mission to explore habitable planets and their people so they could be protected against evil until they grow enough to become part of a secret project to create Power Rangers in an organization of combined planets (future SPD).
His current mission is to explore a planet with quite a unique record of encounters with alien enemy forces, and with known Power Rangers this planet is a prime candidate to become a Headquarters for the training and deploying of future peace defenders: Earth.
---
I hope it is fine.
-
Chiletrek, I am so incredibly sorry if my reply came off in a bad way to your character design. I understand that you have been busy with things lately, I know I have, and I didn't want to come off as shooting your character down.
Your character design looks good to me, and I'm glad you still have interest in this struggling RP :D
-
Does look like an interesting character design, sounded interesting when we talked about it before. I hope you have fun rping as the character.
-
Can I add my own ranger?
-
Well the idea is this is based off of Power Rangers Zeo, so the idea is to stick with the five Zeo Rangers.
If you wanted to play as a ranger, the spot for Zeo Ranger 2 Yellow is still open. You could create a character for that ranger.
-
can it be a guy?
-
Yes, you may certainly create a male yellow ranger. While we are trying to stick with the ranger colors, we are not restricting you to the same gender as well.
-
Name:Patrick Anderson
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Ranger Color: Zeo Ranger two: yellow
Ranger Weapons: The Zeo Defenders, Twin Sword/blaster like weapons able to change from Saber mode: A pair of swords, Revolver mode: a pair of revolver like weapons, Striker mode: Think the Red SPD rangers weapon, and Lancer mode: Think Power lance.
Fighting Style: Mixed martial arts.
Appearance: Patrick is a 5ft'9in tall 150 lbs Caucasian Male with brown hair and green eyes. an Unkempt beard and wears oval shaped glasses. He typically wears black.
Personality: Skeptical, sarcastic almost to the point of cynicism. Fearless in a fight. tends to fight dirty when in a real fight. Has a temper, and is usually a loner. Some what resentful of the power rangers due to the fact he blames them for not being able to save his parents. Patrick Also has a Mensa level IQ and a Perfectly Instantaneous Memory.
Short Bio: Patrick grew up as the richest kid in angel grove. When his Parents were killed years ago In one of Goldar's Attacks, Patrick grew up raised by his loyal Butler, William. However Patrick fell in with the wrong crowd and rolled with a small time gang till he did some time in Juvenile hall. When he got out he learn martial arts and now attends Angel Grove Collage.
-
Looks good Rocky :D
Feel free to post whenever you are ready
-
so when is zordon going to start his little ranger draft?
-
Well we wanted to give anybody who was still interested a chance to post. which is why we started with this little scene so that everybody could meet up. I'll probably have Zordon summon us soon, or I might have the Putties attack first, I haven't decided yet, but I do plan on having us get started soon.
-
Just the putties?, what about the Tengas, and where is Rito, I love him, also what about master vile and his guys.
-
We initially decided on the putties because they are the most popular henchmen of all of Power Rangers. We can certainly add Tengus in at a later time, but I'm trying to progress this like Mighty Morphin started, with the rangers facing the putties first before fighting anything else.
At this point, nobody has opted to play as Rito, Master Vile, etc... I chose Zedd and Goldar because they are my two favorite villains, as well as the two more popular villains in Power Rangers. We do have somebody playing as Rita, but that's about it. If you would like to play as Rito, then you are more than welcome to.
-
Hello:
Any idea when Zordon would call for our characters? because I am designing a post now, but I wanted to make sure to be on time if I delay and end-up posting it tomorrow.
-
I think you and the pink ranger need to post.
-
I guess it would be sometime after everyone's posted once or a few times, just to let folks try their characters out and such. More fun to do it that way then poof, those drafted happens super early.
-
I'm the pink ranger.. her name is going to be tracy..
-
where's her character sheet?
Also Lets not wait too long, or we risk losing the thread.
-
Ok guys. I want your input on this.
Should we have the Putties attack Angel Grove College at this point? I'm all up for having a little more time for our characters to develop, but I feel like if we don't start developing the plot a bit, we might lose interest in the RP, which I don't want to happen.
-
sounds like a plan.. then in the middle f it the group will be teleported away to the command center
-
I guess except for my character since he's not a teen? Or will Zordon not specifically be looking for teens?
-
if your character is going to be a ranger i don't think age will be a concern..
-
technically, none of our characters are teenagers, They're in they're 20's.
-
It may be, but I guess we'll see.
-
I don't think it's going to really matter the age of your character Kor. In Power Rangers Dino Thunder, Tommy becomes the black ranger and he's definitely not a teenager anymore.
-
He wasn't recruited by zordon in dinothuder. I just hope zordon isn't as picky as he was in the original series concerning age.
-
True, Zordon did not recruit Tommy in Dino Thunder, but I like to go by the philosophy of the dino gems, they choose the user.
I think Zordon will be okay with it. I'm having Zordon go more by ability to defend yourself first before age.
-
your character will be fine Kor :)
-
OK, I got two questions. First, are we going to be fighting the Season one, or season two Putties? Also can the ranger suits be more armor-like, like how they were in MMPR: The Movie, cause I don't like the idea of wearing spandex ranger suits. We could rationalize it by stating the zeo powers had become stronger since they were last used, and the zeo crystal does get stronger over time.
-
1. I never actually thought that one out. Even though Zedd's back and would want to use his Putties, I think Season 1 Putties would be better because he probably does not have the resources he used to have when he was first on the moon.
2. I actually like that idea of making the suits more armor like, and your reasoning for why they change makes a lot of sense. We can go with that.
-
spandex isn't en vogue right now.. :lol:
-
It sure isn't :lol:
I think we need to remember that since we are not Power Rangers yet, we can't easily defeat the putties. Jason's group were all skilled, minus Billy, and they were easily overcome their first encounter. So despite my first attack on a putty, let's not go completely overboard with this fight. Once we gain our powers, then we can really kick butt. I probably should have mentioned this before we started, so I apologize for it.
I think Zordon will probably teleport us like in Mighty Morphing, and then send us back with our powers. I know Kor and I had talked about another idea for us finding our Zeo Crystals, in a similar manner to how the rangers find theirs in Power Rangers Zeo, but we can implement something like that at a later time. For the sake of the RP, it might be more efficient if we gain our powers in the same style as Mighty Morphing.
-
Sounds like a plan LBT... :)
-
So you prefer my character gets recruited and gains his ranger powers along with everyone else, instead of my char doing it the other method I mentioned?
-
yes thats the plan.. :)
-
Well actually, I realized that the Gold Ranger powers were given to Jason a while after the original five received their powers in Zeo. If you want to still go with the way you had come up with, then go for it (I completely forgot you had come up with that idea, and I apologize for that). The plan of us getting recruited, in a similar manner to Mighty Morphing, can apply to just five of us.
-
OK, so can we get teleprted now. also I think who ever is playing zordon should use capitals only for when the giant floating head talks, because he did kind of had a loud, authoritarian voice.
-
we have to have the fight go on for a bit first.
-
The fight does need to go on for a bit. Also, we have to avoid rushing the RP, because others may not be able to keep up with everything.
-
Hello:
Sorry for my awful lack of activity, but I have been doing other things as well. I will also be out of town tomorrow and saturday I'll be busy with more family stuff, I'll try to keep up as I can, but since now I apologize.
-
Hey don't worry about it. I recognize that life can throw things at you unexpectedly. We'll try and make it so we don't go too far in the story without you. We'll probably just do more of the fight.
-
No problem chilre, we're just glad to have you aboard..
-
Nice to have you here indeed Chiletrek.
Hope the post I did wasn't to short, though it was pretty simple and basic.
-
your post was fine Kor.. nice job..
-
I think this fight has gone on long enough, can we get teleported now?
-
I think now is a good time for us to continue. I mainly wanted to wait and have everybody at least post once, but I also recognize that Chiletrek is going to be very busy over the next couple days, so I wanted to give him a chance to post as well.
Kor, I know that you had a different plan for your character in terms of how he gets his morpher, so you can just have your character flee the scene. He won't be teleported with the rest of us, as I imagine Zordon does not have the Gold Zeo Ranger powers on him.
-
heres an idea can the characters pick out a pre-ZEo weapon? I know w the connand center had a case showing the old costumes and weapons..
-
Yeah, that's fine. We can also say that the Zeo Crystals power the suits (to the more armor like from the movie as Rocky suggested) as well as the weapons. My only thing is I don't want everybody using the same weapons.
-
I got a question, are we going by the back story that the power rangers were a TV show? cause that sounds kind of lame, considering my character's back story.
-
To be honest, Kor and I never really discussed that. I was going by the thought that the Power Rangers were stories/legends. The only reason why my character knows who Zordon and Alpha are is because he heard about them through many stories told by his parents, friends, etc...
I probably should have made this more clear as well, but at the time it didn't really seem like a major concern to me.
-
most of the characters consider them to be stories, hence my character reply in my latest post..
-
Is it too late to change my ranger weapon?
-
no, you can ediot your post to change as long as someone else hasn't picked out that weapon.
-
It does make sense to some folks the rangers may be just stories, rumors, ect, especially to folks who've not been living in Angel Grove for a while.
-
Considering that we haven't gotten the weapons yet, it's okay if you want to change your weapon Rocky. Again, just as long as nobody picked it out already.
-
I know this is rather sudden, but I'd like to join this RP. Having been a Power Rangers fan since I was a kid, this sounds like an excellent way to rekindle my childhood spirit.
Although I do know that all the ranger spots are taken and that's okay! My character was going to be the equivalent to Bulk and Skull, just without the bullying. He would eventually find out about the power rangers and how they fight the bad guys and then try (And fail numerous times) to try and identify who they are.
Unfortunately I don't have a bio for my character yet, but I'll work on it tonight and hopefully have something concrete in the morning.
-
You're welcome to join GVg and Bulk and Skull aren't bullies in this one.. they've "matured" to a certain extent..
-
Great to have you with us Rick! :D
Take your time coming up with your bio. There is no rush. ;)
-
Could be interesting having more characters who are not rangers.
-
Ok, check out my new weapon on my character sheet on page five.
also I found this on deviantart:Power Rangers Zeo: The Movie. (http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&q=power+rangers+zeo+the+movie#/d2b2fsf)
-
Hello:
I am back, but I need to catch up, I'll try to reply now, if not, maybe I can reply tomorrow, is that ok?
-
That's perfectly fine :D
I tried to not go too far in the plot so that everybody could get a chance to post. Pretty much all that has happened since you left is that Zordon has teleported us to the command center, and he is about to make us Power Rangers.
Rocky, I approve of your weapon choice. Also, great eye with that Deviantart link. I wish they made a movie for Zeo, it's my favorite season.
-
I think starfall raptor has to post then can we get our powers.
-
That's what I'm waiting for. I don't want to rush it without letting people get the chance to post.
-
That's a good idea. I've tried to do the same. Don't want anyone to fall behind.
-
also can we get communicators when we get our powers? same with our weapons.
-
Communicators will be given along with our powers. Kor and I discussed this and we agreed that it was an obvious choice.
We also discussed about teleporting. The guideline is simple. You will have the ability to teleport, just like in the show, but you cannot overuse it. Only use it for dire emergencies: getting to the command center or some other location that would take a long time to reach on foot or by vehicle. Can't have people teleporting on the battlefield every two seconds.
-
OK, so my guy can't go off on his own half cocked as soon as he gets his powers?
-
precisely. going off half-cocked with newly acquired powers is a recipe for disaster.
-
hello:
That is correct, but after the first battle, I think all characters will have that kind of doubts, or any crazy ideas, solved.
-
ok, but can my guy blast goldar's tail off, I mean shoot it, and it falls to the ground?
-
I'd prefer not to. I understand your character has a revenge plot with Goldar, but shooting his tail off like that is a little too violent for the Power Rangers universe (at least I don't remember anything like that happening in the franchise). I know that the characters are a bit older now than before, but keeping in context with the universe we are set in, we should probably avoid drastic violent acts like that.
-
Partypooper, no cake for you.
can I at least shoot him in the tail?
-
working out the vigilante justice out of Rocky's character might be a good thing..
-
In a manner that may have been done on the show you mean?
-
I think it'd make it interesting if, at various points, each of our rangers had to deal with some personal issue. Petty things like wanting to be the team leader, or like Rocky's character learning to deal with his vigilante tendencies. I have a surprising one for Eric to face, at least. A couple, really.
-
I do like that idea, of each character dealing with a personal issue. My character would most likely be struggling with the burden of being the leader and what not.
Rocky, you can shoot at Goldar, but it would seem unlikely that his tail would be shot. Goldar is agile, so he would most likely dodge the shot to his tail, not to mention his tail is small and is clipped to the back of his armor.
-
Ok, I could have tracy deal with problems with her sister.. and learning how to work with Saba..
-
They could be just about anything, and they don't have to be the same issue the entire time. We can change them around as we go on. I think working with Saba is a good idea, as well as Tracy's sister :D
-
My guy is not a Vigilante, he is just a lone wolf kind of guy. He also has a stereotype view of aliens.
Also we could keep Canis's true Identity and mission a secret. at least till a possible sub plot I call Canis takes a stand, in which Canis defends a reluctant monster from Patrick and ends up revealing his true form to the team to keep Patrick from killing said monster.
a cookie to who ever names the power rangers season and episode I got that from.
one more thing I wanna play as Scorpina, and this time she's not working for Zedd or Rita. And she gets close to the yellow ranger as Sabrina.
Another cookie if guess where that sub plot Idea came from.
-
Hello:
I cannot earn the cookie because I cannot remember the episode, but I think it is from "Time Force". One of the frozen prisoners in Ransik's ship was not a bad person and the evil robot placed something like a control collar on the alien so he could strike the city. Not sure if I got it right. Something similar happened in SPD too.
But I like the idea for a plot you mentioned, because my OC has to reveal his true self to the others eventually :) . I just wonder if Zordon (and maybe Alpha Five) know already... you know' ,because of the teleport they might found out but kept quiet.
-
thats a good idea, i like it...
-
Nice. So, will Scorpina be on the heroes side?
Also, interesting Idea I got from watching old Japanese TV shows. What if, on occasion, there were, in a sense... "Super Putties?" Similar to normal-sized monsters, just weaker and don't grow. Also, giving each of our rangers some individual move that they name?
-
no, she's own her own side.
-
shes a roiouge them\n, on neither side..
-
also what are doing for zords?
and why has no one posted in the rp?
-
To answer your questions Rocky,
For now, I have not decided what I want to do with Zords. I imagined that Zords would be hard to RP as, mainly because we'd have to combine them together, and also I have no idea what we would do in terms of monsters. I might just borrow monsters from Mighty Morphing just because they are more recognizable and more popular than the other monsters in the franchise.
Also, we all have our real lives to worry about apart from GOF. I was busy the last few days and it kept me from posting in the RP. Since I'm back at school now, I will probably be able to sit down and post again, but just remember that everybody will not be able to post as often as others.
-
Pastience is needed, i think. We are all on at diferent times, and some of us aren't as active as others..
-
I was a bit busy and also waiting for others to post. Some folks are not able to post as fast, being busy in school, like Chiletrek, or other general life stuff, also.
-
Hello:
I think Kor is correct, I have no classes yet (those will start soon), but I am busy doing other things for the university. But I will try to post as often as I can.
-
ok, so I it would be a good idea to work out the zords. I vote we use the super zeo zords. they would give us greater freedom in regards to Rping with zords.
-
We can certainly start thinking about Zords now that we've kind of gotten things rolling.
I won't be able to post all weekend because I'm going on tour, so I'll have to wait until then to think of anything.
-
Some zords still exist, if what happened in the show happened in this universe. I'm not sure but some should. Some I think that would exist would be the dragonzord. I'm not sure if much could be done with him with no green ranger around, unless he was made sentient so he'd not need a control device like the dagger, or a new control device could be made (thought it could be captured by the enemies). I think the original zeo zords still exist since I read the quit being used and went to the new zeo zords the originals were not destroyed. There is at least 1 turbo zord that still exists, not sure of the others, since I couldn't stand to watch turbo. & the other zords that exist are unavoidable due to distance, like the lost galaxy zords (very far away) or being used by other rangers (like the lightspeed rescue zords and q-rex).
I think some carrier zords still exist. Titanis may since I think they just quit using it. The wiki says he was lost in time, but I'm not sure if it was mentioned on screen, I'll have to go and watch the episode. Some other carrier zords still exist I'd guess since some just quit being used.
-
Hello:
What it can work well are the original Zeo Zords, the ones that are no longer in use, because they are canon and they are still there, so that is a great idea. Maybe they can receive updates and new goodies as the rpg progress.
@LBTFan13: I hope the tour will go great for you, and see you when you get back.
-
Titanis was only used a couple times, so it could be used
we'll say that the zords are stored in a secret chamber below the command center
-
I thought we were only using Zeo stuff?
-
There are the original zeo zords. I guess they introduced the carrier zords to have another toy to get kids to buy. Usually the zords don't have a problem getting to the spot where the rangers are fairly quickly. It's not like the giant monster and the rangers have to sit and drink tea or coffee and wait till the zords can get there.
I was just mentioning a few zords that could still be around.
-
yeah, but pyramidas is the zeo carrier zord.
also I got an Idea.
OK Zedd and Rita kidnap those closet to the power rangers, and demand the zeo crystal.
Also Zedd and Rita did fight the Zeo rangers a couple of times.
Also who's up for (Drum roll please)PSYCHO RANGERS.
Here's the line up
Psycho Red
Psycho Blue
Psycho Green
Psycho Yellow
Psycho pink
Psycho Gold
and yes, I know the psycho rangers are from power rangers in space, but they are so awesome. Also I was thinking that they would have the same designs, only with a green and gold ranger, and they be six evil humans given powers derived from Zedd and Rita's dark and evil magic. and I would be willing to play as them.
also I would think it would be awesome if we brought in a kind of Silver Guardians- like group. we could call it the Guardian Angels.
-
That could be an idea, not sure what the others think.
-
they can come in later i think..
-
I like the idea. It'll give me a chance to bring in someone I'm working on. Also, a certain old ranger will be coming back to act as a support for the new rangers.
Hint: He just introduced into the RP
-
BILLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, but he's on Aquatar.
-
They have high tech as I recall so they could get to earth. I think BIlly left in a spaceship. Not sure which episode or season think it was 4.
Which reminds me of something I heard, no idea if it was true or not. But originally billy was going to get the gold ranger powers but the actor wouldn't tell them if he would stay for the whole season or not so they asked the actor who use to do Jason if he'd return. Also the original story, I heard, was the reason billy kept leaving to do something would be revealed in the turbo movie that he was making the turbo morphers and zords, but since the actor left on bad terms that part of the story was dropped.
That is one of the changes I'd have done if I was going to gm a power rangers rp is I'd add that back in that billy made the turbo morpher and zords, along with other changes I'd make to power rangers history, but that is unimportant here.
-
A lot of ideas here since I left on tour! Thank you guys for bringing these up here, because it means we can certainly prolong this RP for a good length.
I absolutely love the idea of Billy for supporting the Zeo Rangers. He did in fact do that in the series, so it would only be logical to have him back again.
To add on to the Billy idea, what if Billy made some adjustments to the Zeo zords? If he originally designed the Turbo morphers and zords, it would make sense for him to make some modifications to the Zeo zords. When Billy ends up joing the rangers as tech support, we can use that to also reveal the zords as well. Now of course, we can go ahead with some other side plots before we bring in the zords and Billy, since I'm sure StarfallRaptor has some ideas of his own to pursue with Billy.
The Psycho Rangers were definitely the coolest villains of Space, so I don't mind using them. However, let's wait on that idea. We don't want to throw in a major plot like that til much later, when the rangers become more developed with their powers.
Same thing with the kidnapping idea. I like it, but it's too early to go through a major plot like that when the rangers are only just beginning. Usually the series would have some filler episodes before a major plot point, so I think we should do that for this.
I think we should pursue some character development plot points to get us underway. I know some ideas have been thrown around, but there is one that I would like to put forth for my character. I was thinking of having Rob doubt himself as leader after he succumbs to Goldar during a fight with him and a group of Putties. Patrick would begin ranting on him, claiming that he is not suitable to be leader, and Rob considers leaving the rangers. Goldar uses this to his advantage by kidnapping the other rangers and forcing Rob to fight him solo.
There are a couple other details that we could throw in there, but that's the basic gist of what I had in mind.
-
i couild develop tracy but having her go off and train with saba..while she is training she remembers her issues with her sister..
-
Hmm... with Bulk and Skull talking about wanting to be Rangers, I just got an idea. I was already going to have Billy use his old Ninja Wolf coin, and act as a second blue ranger, but now... How about a second team of Hero rangers, made up of old faces? Billy, Bulk, Skull, and two others, with the old Ninjazords.
Sound like a plan?
-
that would be really cool Starfall. I like the idea! :)
-
I object, first bulk would look terrible in a ranger costume, second even if you could pull it off, they'd have to undergo the whole ninja quest thing again.
Also Why not just make our own Rangers or ranger-like allies?
-
well they'd force bulk tto get into (relatively) decent shape first..
-
Some rangers still had their powers at the end of their seasons, all of light speed rescue, time force, spd (but they are in the future and some retired/quit). Some had their powers restored since their link to the morphing grid was restablished in the season 15 2 parter once a ranger.
You can see his morph sequence, and see his power coin is damaged in a brief shot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TgavW7pdIQ&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TgavW7pdIQ&feature=related)
Though he doesn't stay morphed long as seen later in the same battle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgsFXKSfJ4w (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgsFXKSfJ4w)
Adam (from MMPR), the female from ninja storm (whatever her name was), the female from dino thunder (whatever her name was), the green ranger from mystic force.
You can see their morph sequence : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0znjt3vGZ8c (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0znjt3vGZ8c)
There is also the forever red (season 10 episode) folks and their morphing sequence: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXbghYw2vaw (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXbghYw2vaw)
Some other changes I'd have put in was for one, zordon got that sword thing from season 2 (forgot it's name) didn't transfer the 3 ranger's powers, but copied them. I got the idea since it clearly shows the 3 older rangers still fully morphed after their powers are supposedly transfered and would explain how Jason could morph in the forever red episode. & there was no explanation that I know of as to why the zeo rangers quit using their morphers. So tho the active ranger's power coins were damaged, in my altered history the original red, black and yellow are still whole and functional.
I'd have said they put them aside to use the turbo morphers and zords to get experience with them since their intention was to find folks they could pass the turbo morphers and zords onto since they could then keep the zeo morphers and have someone protect angel grove while they went to university elsewhere, got jobs elsewhere, tommy could go into racing, ect. Though I'd have also said Rocky was the first blue turbo ranger, and his successor would have been tommy's brother (or half brother whatever he was) not that stupid brat tho grows during the morph sequence.
Though obviously with my altered history adam gave up or passed up his zeo morpher sometime during turbo, and tommy sometime after the forever red episode .
-
Wow, this is also quite a bit of thinking going on here :lol:
I both like and dislike the idea of a second team of rangers. While I love the idea of bringing older faces back, I'm not quite sure about making them all rangers. It was not my intention to bring back many older faces, but I did like the idea of Billy as support like he was throughout Zeo. It certainly would make sense that his wolf coin would still be useful because the power coins were destroyed instead. The ninja zords were cool, and they could serve as a partner set for the Zeo zords.
The only reason why I could actually see Bulk and Skull as rangers is because they did actually fight at the season finale of Space. Sure, it was more comedic fighting than hardcore fighting, but they did prove they could stand up to the minions (I forget which ones they were at the time). I agree that Bulk would have to go through extensive working out, or perhaps Zordon could just zap him thin (doubt it though :lol: ).
My only concern is that with all of this we may run into a clutter of too many characters. It may get a little confusing keeping track of who is doing what, so if we were to go through with this we would have to keep that in mind. This is what I was thinking about when Rocky brought up the Silver Guardians. I like the idea of having a group like them in, but again there would be a lot of characters and keeping track of everybody could get out of hand.
-
then I think we should limit the team to just Billy Bulk and Skull call it a micro-team if you will..
-
That would certainly make it a bit simpler. Also, Billy could act as their mentor, having prior experience as a ranger before.
-
How about we have Bulk and skull join that Silver Guardian like group I mentioned instead and maybe be reunited with LT. Stone. also most of this group could be NCP's.
but if you insist on makeing Bulk and skull rangers, then we could just have it Bulks powers give him enhanced Agility, endurance, stamina, Etc.
-
There could be a 2nd rp done by someone else with folks from maybe mixed seasons, like happened in the 15th anniversary once a ranger 2 parter. Some folks who are or were rangers are recruited to protect a city or asked to come and protect it. There are some who still have their powers as of the end of jungle fury. I could list those I know of if interested, even limiting myself to the pure cannon ones and not my altered ranger history, though I'm not an expert I do know of some of them. Though some like SPD and the Time Force folks who are not native to the present are in the future one or 2 could show up like whatshisname from SPD did show up in once a ranger, with no explanation that I recall, though he's from the future.
-
One more thing, STOP PICKING ON JUSTIN STEWART, I Like the character. Besides I don't a lot of difference between him and Billy Batson/ Captain Marvel.
-
Rocky i have no idea what you are talking about there..
-
Rocky, where did that come from? Nobody here even mentioned Justin at all.
Kor, I like your idea of making a separate RP with characters from all of the seasons a lot. A lot of the ideas we seem to be bringing up might be better suited for a different RP, as the one I created was mainly supposed to be tailored to the Zeo series. I still like the idea of Billy coming for tech support for the rangers, but maybe we should create another RP. The Silver Guardians, for example, would work better for a different RP because then we can include Eric and Wes from Time Force.
-
perhaps we could create it after we have worked on this one awhiole
-
ok, but I call dibs on Eric, he is one of my favorite rangers up there with Cole, Wes, Tommy, and Justin (You got a problem with that?
-
Rocky, why do you keep getting aggravated? Nobody has said anything negative against Justin at all here, so there is no reason to get worked up over it.
-
Good idea. And stealing from later Power Rangers, have their zords maybe act as boosters to the main group's.
-
thats a god idea. i stopped watching power ranger for the most part after zordon was destroyed, although i've heard they brought bulk back in the new series as a samarai
-
Rocky, why do you keep getting aggravated? Nobody has said anything negative against Justin at all here, so there is no reason to get worked up over it.
Kor did.
-
Should we talk of that here or start another thread to discuss the other ranger rp? We could list the rangers and zords we know of who likely still exist, still have their powers/morphers or like adam got theirs back.
-
lets focus on this RP first.
by the way, bulk is a wanna be samurai. I think it's tacked on, and Saban should of gone with the Bulkmiers thing he and skull had in forever red.
-
As for Bulk or Skull joining the silver guardians it could be there are enough of them, & their home city quiet enough they have sent some to angel grove if and when they hear about the attack, to set up a branch here if they see the need.
No reason both rp's can't happen at the same time, but up to the folks here.
-
I would have liked toi o see Skull back too, as the comic relief team..
-
Who knows, maybe they can have their own comidic fighting style. Maybe extra funny since it won't be their intent to be doing a comedic fighting style, though it always comes out like that.
-
thats a great idea Kor.. that coulld work perfectly..
-
I got a question, How come Goldar wants to destroy the red Ranger, My character was the one who bit him in the tail, shot him in the tail, and saved the red guy from Goldar and forced him to retreat?
-
he wants to eliminate the lead ranger..since in the series Goldart often clashed with the lead ranger
-
I sense a potential for what I call red-envy. First known case, Power Rangers SPD. Also I think the thread is dying.
-
sorry for the double post
Also I think it would be funny if Rito was to pull what is called a Leroy Jenkins, and rush in head first. also since we brought Billy in, maybe he joins in the fighting. And, Patrick, being the Ranger Basher he is, blind sides Billy and punches him in the face and nails him in the groin. Also I vote no- city Megazord battles, and could I bring in Lt. Stone. I know he lost his job as a cop, but lets say he got rehired years back and is now the Comissioner of Police.
-
i think patrrick needs to tione down the zordon-bashing imo. theres a fine line between being discordant and openly hostile..
-
ok, maybe after the fight scene and Rob's abjuction (Maybe even halve Rito blurt out where he was taken.) then Patrick puts his resentment of Zordon and the rangers on hold, Both he and Billy put their egg heads together and cook up a rescue plan.
-
Hello:
I agree with Nick, but I also think this plot that is about to happen can surely help Patrick to change his mind a bit, maybe not make him fully friendly yet, but to admit there is truth in what Zordon say. That would be an awesome character developing as he turns more into a hero for the people, like all Power Rangers are.
-
thats a possibility. but in order to do that, he should imo have to be mistreated while being captured and have the others rescue him..
-
what does Imo mean?
-
In My opinion, its shorthand. like Lol is shorthand for laugh out loud, and brb means be right back.
-
I'd like to make this clear. Patrick's going to be going down the path of a Batman-like figure. He will never be the kind of ranger the others are, but he will become the kind of ranger they will need.
Also is my Idea to have Rito pull a Leroy Jenkins OK?
-
the problem with that is that there is no equivalent of Batman in the Power Rangers mythos. theres no part-time Ranger or "honorary Ranger", all the members are equally devoted to the team.
-
the problem with that is that there is no equivalent of Batman in the Power Rangers mythos. theres no part-time Ranger or "honorary Ranger", all the members are equally devoted to the team.
That was an analagy in that he is willing to fight along side with, but he is not a rank in file ranger. He has a fierce exterior, but he still cares about his fellow humans. he will fight to keep his fellow rangers safe, but not because he is friends, but because they are all humans (He doesn't know Canis is a alien, and when he and the others find out, he will break file and try to kill him on the grounds of just being an alien. Basicly Patrick is the qauntum ranger, luner wolf ranger, with a pinch of billy and tommy.
-
The thing about the Quantum Ranger though is that he would never kill any of the other rangers. Sure he had his disputes against Wes, and he did fight them numerous times, but he never tried to kill him. He also eventually did warm up to the rest of the rangers and became more of a team player, so he did lose the "work alone" attitude. In reality, if Patrick were to continue acting the way he currently does without change, he would lose his powers. The whole point of being a Power Ranger is to work as a team to defend the world.
I also agree about the Zordon bashing. I understand that your character doesn't trust him, but its getting a little out of hand. Nobody really disrespects Zordon that much even if they don't trust them.
I completely understand what you're trying to do with your character Rocky, but we also need to stay in terms with the Power Rangers universe. There has been no ranger that remains hateful towards the other rangers like Patrick has been so far, and normally nobody would care if an alien was among them, so having your character try and kill Canis doesn't really make sense
In terms of your idea for Rito, I don't think it would really fit his character to go out like that. Sure he may be really excited to go after the rangers, but he wouldn't go so far as to break the plan. He may be a little dim witted, but he's not entirely incompetent.
-
OK. How about this, most of that Zordpon is just like Zedd and rita stuff is just him blowing steam. And He's mostly he's acting out of fear that a repeat of the 90's is coming, and he is mostly franticly trying to find a better way to fight them besides relying soley on power rangers. Patrick is also convinced Zordon lacks the resolve needed to go on offense. Patrick's attitude itowards Aliens is easy to explain. all the aliens he's ever seen from his childhood were evil. So he is convinced that all aliens are a threat, and by meeting zordon he is accaully struggleing with the concept that maybe Aliens can be good too. Also I wanted to bring scorpina in as a rouge element. She basicly does to Patrick what she did to Adam in that one season two episode, except nether knows the other's real Identidy, and the deception goes for much longer. Another thing is that Patrick also considers giving up his powers because he didn't count on being happy again, and he feels the same as bruce wayne in mask of the phantasam
-
That actually sounds pretty good Rocky. Again, you can certainly have your character mistrust Canis when he finds out he's an alien, but it would be going too far if he tried to kill him.
-
Hello:
The fact that one character will want to kill another will make this rpg to lose the feel of what is a Power Rangers story. So I am glad the character will have a good development without having to reach extreme actions first.
-
The reason I tripple posted was cause I'm using my ps3 cause my computer crashed. Also another Idea I got is after Rob is ranger-knapped, I was thinking after stopping by the command center, Patrick could take the other rangers (Plus billy, if we're still having him join up with the group at this point) to his home, where he shows them his lab which was converted from a cold war era bunker into a lab. Patrick then shows them his best creation; S.A.I. (Sophisticated Artifitial Intelligence) who is his automated lab assistant. Together with Billy, they get to work converting a machine called the Tran-diminstional monitor to be equiped with a teleportation pod which they use to bail rob out with.
-
one thing to note rocky, is that it should not all be about Patrick, after all there are 5 members on the team..
-
ok, maybe we could tweek it so all of them pitch in to help.
Also your all OK with a ranger who smokes, but not with one who bashes Zordon.
With all fairness to my caracter. Here is a guy who's childhood was terrorized by evil SPACE ALIENS, and zordon is an alien, and as such, he is hostile towards all aliens and don't want to take orders from an alien, he would rather good HUMANS were calling the shots. Just walk a mile in his shoes.
Patrick sees the power rangers megazords as bulky and cumbersome weapon, as opposed to smaller, sleeker assault vechicles like fight jets. He also sees the power rangers as in a sense not caring about the people who get caught in the cross fire of their battles, especially if they have megazord battles in the city.
-
Rocky, you're misunderstanding us. We get that your character has a grudge against aliens, and it's fine to not trust Zordon, but you're bashing of him is getting really extreme. No ranger would talk so extreme about him, even if they didn't trust him. Sure they may question him, but not verbally talk about him like that. The reason why we allow the smoking is because humans smoke. I'm sure there are a couple characters throughout Power Rangers history that smoke, maybe not the rangers themselves but still.
I wanted to bring up that none of us have weapons in our non-ranger form. To keep all of the characters on a fair level. I know Rocky that you wanted to have your character have some background knowledge with said weaponry, but in reality a college student would not be allowed to bring a blaster like that on campus, concealed or not.
I also wanted to bring up your post concerning Goldar. First off, a human would most likely not be able to slide in between Goldar's legs because he is wearing a full suit of armor. Second, I don't know what you have about Goldar's tail, but it's attached to the back of his waist. It's not low hanging, so you wouldn't be able to pull it between his legs, causing him to fall back. Third of all, since when did Goldar have an unarmored red spot between his legs? I don't remember ever seeing such thing in any of the episodes he was a part of.
Apart from all that, you can't post things like this against another player's character because you don't control said character. You may try and pull Goldar's tail, but for all you know Goldar could easily keep balance and push you aside. Goldar is not a weakling, he can hold his own in a fight, despite being outnumbered.
-
there happy?
-
remember to allow openings for others to post Rocky..

I did

Given Patrick's conduct to date, there is no chance Zordon will let him lead the team. I will have Tracy take temporary lead, until Rob is rescued. this will allow time for Tracy and Patrick to work out some of thier differences while they try to rescue Rob. thats only fair. in a team rp like this, each person has thier part to play. in reality Zordon would not let a Ranger speak so ill of him, that Ranger would not be on the team, very long.
-
I think that sounds like a plan. Tracy can act as a sort of second-in-command to Rob like Kimberly did to Tommy during Mighty Morphing.
Also Rocky, I have to stress again the whole Zordon bashing issue. A ranger would never refer to him as "alien" because it would show that he/she is not mature enough to put their prejudices or whatever aside for the sake of the world. Again, I get that you have certain ideas for your character, but you're letting the whole mistrust towards aliens idea get out of hand.
-
Zordon has been around for literally thousands of years, he knows how humans work, and their apprehensiveness to Aleins. But again, having Patrick be so disrespectful goes beyond the pale. Zordon should, and will tell him off, after all the Power Rangers are his team. As the TV show showed, the Rangers team changed its members, but Zordon remained.
-
To be frank, it would be better for character development if Patrick had been taken with Rob. it would have forced them to get over thier differences..
-
Well how about this. Once they get up to the moon palace. Patrick turns on them, and then convinces Zedd and Rita to let him exicute them, only to turn on Zedd and Rita, and all five rangers fight together as a team.
Then back at the command center, they demand answers and Patrick confesses most of his attitude was a russ to make Zedd and Rita think he'd really betray them, patrick could't tell them because Zedd and Rita would of been susspcious. He then apologizes for the way he treated everyone.
-
lets me think eh, NO. to even pretend to betray them like that would get him expelled. hes on thin ice as it is right now..
-
I don't think that plan would actually work. Zedd and Rita would have no reason to believe Patrick because he still has good in him despite his anger and hatred. Also, like Nick22 said, Zordon would most likely not let something like that go unpunished. Despite good intentions, this plan would jeopardize the other rangers.
The point of Rob getting kidnapped is for him to get over his fear of being incapable of leading the group. He'll fight Goldar, eventually beating him, and fight his way through the lair til he meets back up with the group.
We can figure another way to develop some more character for Patrick. In fact, maybe we can have Patrick and Tracy get in a situation and have the two of them work out their differences, because they seem to hate each other the most.
-
that m,might work...good thinking lbt..
-
And while fighting through imposdible odds the rangers form the beginings to a fire forged friendship and when Patrick fights alongside the rangers he starts to realize they are formitible alone, but invincible together. And after seeing Zedd and and Rita face to face. He realizes how stupid he was to think they were the same as zordon. maybe they could do some damage to convince Zedd and Rita not to try that plan again. Like blow up the repulsascope, trash Finster's workshop, and maybe even sing a victory tune when they all meet back at the local saloon. (Last part joke)
also could I call his family's company draganta Industries (Mystic knights nod).
-
sure you can have the nod, but given the Rangers weak at this point, its simnply, get Rob out and get the heck out..damaging finsters shiop and the like isn't going to happen.
-
That sounds like a plan, fast in and fast out. I guess Zordon and alpha may have some idea of the layout of Rita and Zedd's base?
Guess it'll just be the 4 of them since they have no way, they know of, to contact the gold ranger they saw before. Think he just appeared once before.
-
If you want your character to participate as well, he may certainly do so Kor. He could follow them to Zedd and Rita's base, or he could simply appear in the Command Center and be teleported with the other rangers.
-
Not sure how he could participate since he has no idea where either of the bases are. Not like he has any scanners to scan the areas, or scan for Rob's dna and go there. Jason with his tardis could do that, or could just know where the bases are, but John doesn't have those abilities or capabilities, nor resources.
-
I know, zordon could teleport john to the comand center.
-
Why would he do so though?
-
simple, for back up.
-
How would he know that John is the gold ranger? He can't wear his morpher, given it's huge size.
-
Zordon knows everything, it's his job to know.
-
Hello:
I know there is a way for John to help, maybe he'll appear in the best moment to help the others.
And I think that Zordon should know about John as Zordon knows all about the powergrid (was that the name? sorry if I forgot), but we also know Zordon will never betray someone's trust so I think John's identity will be kept as a secret if the Gold Ranger decides that.
I am also liking the changes in Patrick's attitude, I know that he'll become a great ranger :) .
-
your close, it's called the morphing grid.
-
yes and its balance by the struggle between zotrdon on one side and rita and zedd on the other
-
I recall them mentioning that.
Still not sure how John may be brought in, or if he will be. No biggie either way.
-
OK, anyway I got a solution to the Zord problem, we just use the super zeo zords. we all know they can fight on their own and they didn't form the super zeo mega zord till they fought a giant king Mondo.
Also please tell me we are teleporting to the inside of the moon palace.
another thing I wish I had thought of doing was making Patrick a Gradurate of the wind ninja academy, but I doubt anyone would let it fly now.
-
it has tyobe outside as theres an anti-0teleporatation field on the palace
-
yeah, and no oxygen too, they'ed be killed by that before they morphed! And what about solor radiation, and space debries?
-
That must be new since early on there was air on the moon.
-
we could say they morphed before teleporting.. in the show it was assumed the suits served as ersatz spoacesuits.
-
I thought they showed folks talking on the moon on the outside. I"ll have to get some episodes and look, though with my low intelligence i'm likely wrong .
-
It doesn't matter, It's been resolved.
-
Sounds great. I'll be reading the posts even though my character can't be there. The post have all been good so far (apart from mine).
-

Or you could have your guy's Star-Trek rip off buddies send John in as back up.
-
How would they know where the other rangers are?
The only way I can think of is to have my oc Jason tell him, but that wouldn't likely fit.
As for being a star trek rip off, I've not said who or what scotty really is since the 2 of them would not mention it to each other since they both already know.
-

my mistake, Parodey. is that more accuirate?
-
More like he gets ideas on what to build from some of the shows he watches, like the transporter from star trek. Decided why not make a few sentient robots to help and have them be sentient. Hense one of them being Scotty, who looks and sounds like the classic series one, though with not the same personality and he doesn't always wear the same set of clothes, and has all of his fingers.
-
Ok, well how about your space buddy guy tracks the other rangers movements and then sends the gold ranger into back'em up.
-
thats a possibility..
-
Not sure if that tracking thing is to high of a tech level or not for him to have.
-
no, it can work...now we just need an idea of how long to go before they findwhere rob is
-
I'm afraid that depends on when or rather when Lbtfan13 posts again. But I suggest we don't draw it out too long.
-
He may be busy with stuff.
-
that's not good, considering his characters are crutial to this RP.
-
I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. I just finished school a couple weeks ago as well as started a new job, so I've been a little busy the last couple weeks.
First, I will address the length of the rescue mission. I plan on having maybe two more posts of Rob fighting Goldar. I don't want to drag this out too much longer, but I don't want it to end so quickly. I'm just gonna have my character break out of the dungeon and fight his way through the base until he meets up with the others. We'll have a quick meeting between the rangers and Zedd/Rita, but nothing too substantial just yet. Then I'll have Zordon teleport us out of the base and back to the command center.
As for getting the Gold Ranger on the base, I think for the sake of this we can allow your character to track us at the base Kor. I really do want to get him more active with the rest of the rangers, since he is a member of the team regardless of him not being around as much.
-
Also I got an Idea guys. Okyou know ho I established my guy worked behind the scenes to arm Lightspeed, the silver guardians, and Operation Overdrive.
Well How about we have it where after this is wrapped up that decides to arm our rangers with upgraded weapons and vechiles. I know that we are doing a zeo thing, but to be realistic, the Rangers try to use every availible Asset. I'm not talking about making more rangers, but using stuff like the V-lancers, battle boosters, and te overdrive stuff, but just re-purpose it for the new Team's use. Also I think Zordon should Teleport the gold ranger to the command center and have it where he becomes a team player.
-
Billy'll help with that as well, then.
-
Any best time for the gold ranger to appear?
Billy should be very helpful, especially imagine what he could have learned in the time since we last saw him on tv.
-
Leavce that to Billyu he has more experience with that Patrick does. let Patrick be just a Ranger rocky..
-
also i find that patrick did all that with the older Rangers but still hates Aleins , to be very implausible. Working with those Rangers would have made him respect Zordon, not treat him as he has. sio strike that out if you please Rocky
-
I guess now that the puddies appeared would be a good time for my character to appear, or wait a bit?
Billy should be a big help, with all the experience he has being a former ranger and his experience with the technology of Zordon and such.
-
also i find that patrick did all that with the older Rangers but still hates Aleins , to be very implausible. Working with those Rangers would have made him respect Zordon, not treat him as he has. sio strike that out if you please Rocky
all of them were post zordon era.
-
that still doesn't really work though. if he has all this experience working with old ranger stuff zordon would have sensed that knowledge and commented on it.
-
This would actually be a good opportunity for your character to come in Kor. I don't plan on having my character pinned down for much longer, so I imagine in a couple posts I will have met up with the other rangers.
-
that still doesn't really work though. if he has all this experience working with old ranger stuff zordon would have sensed that knowledge and commented on it.
well patrick also spent two years in juvee, but zordon said nothing about that. Besides Zordon knows how much Patrick got upsset about him bringing up his Parents, so he probrally with held it.
Also, is the (new) blue suited ranger billy, cause if so I was wondering if I could Bring Adam Park into the rp too.
-
remember to let people have a shot at glory here Rocky, remember hes part of a team
-
Yep. The Blue Ranger is Billy. I figured that, while the original Rangers had their link to the Morphing Grid restored, most of them probably would have moved on by now. Billy came back, and Adam too. Maybe towards the end of the RP, have something that even the new Rangers can't defeat, and call back the other teams for one big final battle or something.
Also, I have a plan for integrating the old Zords even. Due to them not being able to form their megazords anymore, I was thinking that either the old Zords can be modified to be able to synch with the Super Zeo Zords, with Billy modifying other original Zords to be able to synch with their respective color SZZ's, or have it that he and Adam use the Shogunzords.
-
sounds like a plan.. perhaps Billy could use some grunt wirk ie Bulk and Skull
-
In my honest opinion, I don't see a need to bring Adam in. I mean there is an actual reason as to why Billy would be suitable to make an appearance in the RP because of his technological intelligence. I feel like we would be bringing in too many past rangers by bringing in Adam. Billy can also provide information about Rita and Zedd as he has had the most experience fighting them, so there would be no need to bring Adam into the picture there.
Also, I agree with Nick22 here on this Rocky. If Patrick went through the revelation in the Command Center, he wouldn't revert back to his former mindset. He needs to stick with his changed personality. I know it goes against what your original intention is, but that's part of being in a group RP. Everybody has to adapt so things can be more enjoyable. Also, remember not to give your character too many glory moments. Like Nick22 said, this is a team RP so everybody deserves a shot of glory.
Finally, I really wish you would have told me that you planned on killing Rito off. He's a huge character in the rangers universe, and I was hoping he would be around for a much longer time. I know he was in your control so technically you could do what you wish, but I hope you may consider keeping him around.
-
Maybe Rita and Zed can use a spell together to bring him back or something.
-
What revalation? If your talking about him working with a team he is trying to, but a change like that takes time. He realizes that he can't be a lone wolf, but he still hates aliens, he still refuses to openly accept the other rangers, Zordon, alpha, and later billy as anything more than a means to an end. He He is kind of like Dr. K from RPM in that dregree.
Also Adam still has his restored Mighty morphing powers, and even if he didn't, his character would still fight, because that is who he is. but I guess that can wait. Also, who ever said in the show that Billy got his powers back, who?
Also, Rito won't stay dead for long. I was thinking we could have him be our first Giant monster fight, then flee and be back on the moon.
Also Character changes take time. It's also important to read his bio. Patrick was betrayed by people who he thought were his friends. And so his attitude is a kind of emotional shield. He pushes away anyone who trys to be his friends so that won't ever happen again.
-
while i understand that rocky. the revelation that he did all this stuff diesn't make sense. for one this is more or less a reboot of the series..
-
while i understand that rocky. the revelation that he did all this stuff diesn't make sense. for one this is more or less a reboot of the series..
so does that mean past ranger team tech besides Zeo is off limits, cause the point was to incorperate Lightspeed rescue and operation overdrive tech into the arsenal.
Also I was thinking of an explaination for all the ressurections, here it is.
Dark spector wasn't just the monrch of evil, he was the emibodiment of evil.Only his body was destroyed, leaving his spirit severally weakened. So all thease years he had been recovering his strength. He absorbed all the evil zordon's energy wave purged and was waiting till he had enough power to rise again. However the sentinal knight sensed this and used the Chorona auroa to ressurect zordon, and restiore him, and alpha five to their command center. Realizing this, darkspecter recreated Zedd, Rita, and all their minons from the evil that zordon's wave purged. all to pave the way for his return. However Darkspector and sentinal knight are too weak to contect earth, so neither side knows this.
And since LBTfan13 seems fine with it, I assume he won't mind.
-
I read somewhere that some of the evil that Zordon's energy wave destroyed or washed away ended up in something called the shadow world.
Rita could be just the evil side of Rita since in some episodes of Mystic Force she, the good side that was purged of evil that was briefly seen at the end of power rangers in space, becomes the empress of good magic. She appears a bit in mystic force, not sure how much, since I've not seen a lot of episodes, maybe just a few cameos or something. Though being just Rita's evil side she may not matter that the good self of Rita is elsewhere.
-
I already ressurected Rito as Super-Rito. A combination of Rito Revulto and Bones.
-
Ok, early I posted that Rito blasted the power rangers, how come all of you guys ignored it?
-
we';ve been busty lately Rocky, patience please..
-
I was refering to posts already made. Said attacks took place while in the following posts they were completely ignored.
-
because those attacks did not leave any room for our characters to respond, they occurred and were over during the course of your post..if you want for example, the putties to attack, you mention it and have them surround the group. if patricks fires as them thats fine, and if he knocks a few down wuith kicks, thats fine.but this is ultimately a team rp, you need to create a situation where everyone can have thier say..
-

Ok, Here's an Idea.
From now on with monsters when ever they use their attacks, we leave them open ended. Example Monster A shoots blasts at rangers, the rangers either get affected by the attack's special abbility, block, dodge, or get hit.
-
LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I am very sorry that I have been so inactive lately. You can read my topic in AM section to get an idea of what I've been dealing with lately. I plan to become more active in the near future, so I will be rereading the posts since my last post to get an idea of where we all are.
-
No need to apologize, I'm just posting now to keep this topic on the first page.
-
Maybe a summary can be posted if some feel that it would help them.
-
Guys, you'll never believe this. Netflix has mighty morphing power rangers seasons 1-3 on it's instant stream section. I just watched the best quality version of a mighty morphing power ranger's episode not screwed over by disney in years!
-
ok, I think we have to accept that this thread is dead, so we come to a fork in the road.
One: do a reboot like what was done with the lion king rp
Or
Two: Try a new plot.
-
We can try to reboot it. See who is interested and if any new folks are interested. That sort of thing.
-
OK Kor, and I was kind of wondering if I could be the Gold Ranger this time around, mabe you and I could swap colors.
-
Who'll be the gm this time around? and who is interested in the rp besides the 2 of us.
-
I am truly, deeply sorry that I let this RP die down. My life has been crazy outside of GOF and my priorities have been entirely switched around among everything. I feel like I let everybody down as a GM and I am very sorry.
-
LBTfan13, you have nothing to be sorry for. nobody blames you. I also want to know if you will reprise your role as Red Ranger in the reboot. Also I was thinking Kor that maybe I could be GM and also get the powers of the gold ranger. So are you willing to swap powers. Also LBTfan13 I was wondering if You would concent to My revised, non anti alien jerk character Patrick being the leader of the power rangers or that I control Zordon and Alpha five s well as both zedd and Rita and rito. you can still have Goldar, but I am likely to be the most active one in that I have time to spend on the site.
-
Depends on the gold ranger you want to do . There was a gold ranger in the zeo season. Troy or whatever his name is. Also it would have to be decided if there will be oc's, fc's, a mix of the 2 or what. & if the 6th ranger will be gold, or some other color.
And who all is interested in the rp.
-
At this point, I think a reboot would be a wise choice. It does seem like we are kind of dragging this on for a bit, which may have again been my fault for simply not being able to post in it. Having said that, I would like to try as GM again because now I feel like I am getting a little more time to actually relax for myself, which means I would be able to get on more often to post. Kor, since you helped me create this RP in the first place, I would be happy if you would continue to be CO-GM. Hopefully we can get some sense of communication going so we can try and avoid what happened to this RP.
I think we need to contact the other participants and also try and spread the word out to others, just to see if maybe we can get more people involved. I also think that we need to get ALL the specific details out before we start the RP. That way we will have a good idea of how to start everything.
The only thing about your idea Rocky is that the Red Ranger is always the leader in Power Rangers, so to have a Gold Ranger leader kind of doesn't make sense, especially since the Gold Ranger only exists in Zeo. I would reprise my character, who was also specifically designed to be the leader
I would be willing to give you Zedd and Alpha, as you seem to have a really good grasp on Rito's character so I think it would be interesting to see how you play as them. Having said that, aside from Goldar, I would like to keep Zordon, as it was my intention to play as him from the start. I only took Zedd because nobody seemed to want him at the time, and I just kind of added Alpha along with Zordon.
I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way at all. I am very grateful that you are still enthusiastic about this RP. I simply feel like I can and will do a better job as GM this time around.
-
We should work out ideas and characters and such before the rp starts so things can go more smoothly. We can discuss various ideas we all have and work on weaving those together into a smooth running rp.
I"d be happy to be co gm.
I guess some of us may want to keep the same characters and some may want to change to a new character, or even maybe color.
-

Trey. And my Gold ranger character would get his powers in a green lantern sort of thing with a dash of the first iron man at the end where in a post battle press confrence he is sand bagged into revealing he's the gold ranger. Also I hope it's ok I make a new character sheet.
Name:Patrick Draganta
Age: 23
Appearance: 5ft 9in, cleft chin with oval glasses and forest green eyes. He has a straight nose and shoulder length blond hair. He ussally wears a black suit and gold tie.
Personality: Patrick has asphergers syndrome, he is socially inept, can get flustered at times. He is also a MENSA LV genius. Patrick tends to drink quite a bit.
BIo; Patrick comes from a rich family, He was five years old when his Parents were killed by goldar. Even from a young age, Patrick loved to build and create. after his parents were killed, he turned his grief into forcus, and became the first non-ranger human to tap into the morphing grid. He has spent the last 18 years of his life building tech for earth based rangers.
-
So is it just us 3 interested, or have you heard from any others? I also wonder if we'll go with basing it on the original idea and start or if it'll be totally different, or a mix.

I think we need to contact the other participants and also try and spread the word out to others, just to see if maybe we can get more people involved. I also think that we need to get ALL the specific details out before we start the RP. That way we will have a good idea of how to start everything.
The only thing about your idea Rocky is that the Red Ranger is always the leader in Power Rangers, so to have a Gold Ranger leader kind of doesn't make sense, especially since the Gold Ranger only exists in Zeo. I would reprise my character, who was also specifically designed to be the leader
I would be willing to give you Zedd and Alpha, as you seem to have a really good grasp on Rito's character so I think it would be interesting to see how you play as them. Having said that, aside from Goldar, I would like to keep Zordon, as it was my intention to play as him from the start. I only took Zedd because nobody seemed to want him at the time, and I just kind of added Alpha along with Zordon.
I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way at all. I am very grateful that you are still enthusiastic about this RP. I simply feel like I can and will do a better job as GM this time around.
Not true LBTFAN13, There are cases where a non white ranger has been leader. Mighty morphing power rangers seasons 2 and three had Tommy as the white ranger as Leader, Mighty morphing Alien rangers ad a white ranger as leader. Power Rangers Time Force had pink as leader for a while and wild force had yellow calling the shots for a while. But I agree, since your character was made to be leader then Leader he will be. And can I also be rita?
-
i might be wiling to reprise my role as tracy, if we are simply restarting the story..
-
Restarting the story as is, with some colors and stuff being changed, or left the same?
-
Well Kor, How about this as a possible line up
Zeo Ranger I Pink: Tracy: Nick22
Zeo Ranger II Yellow: Kor, and who ever he creates for the roll
Zeo Ranger III Blue: Reversed for StarFallRapter
Zeo Ranger VI Green: reserved for Chiletrek
Zeo Ranger IV Red (Leader): Rob: LBTFan13
Gold Ranger: Patrick: Rocky.
Granted thisis just for the rangers. I also suggest Bulk and skull be the propriators of a new " Hang out Spot" Called Bulk and Skull's.
-
thar coiuld be a good idea... bulk and skulls . i like it.
-
Sounds interesting. What do you think the place could be like? Maybe similar to either the juice bar place in the early seasons, or other such places seen in other seasons of power rangers.
The dino thunder rangers had some sort of combined internet cafe, place with some drinks or food sold too.
I may do a female character so the main rangers isn't all males but 1.
have you pmed all the others on that list?

Remember that place we saw breifly in forever red, like that. Also Chiletrek is interested in the reboot, but he needs a date so he can see if he can be active.
I also contacted Starfallraptor.
-
I somewhat remember that scene. Maybe if Chiletrek is to busy to rp as a ranger character he could still rp a bit as a friend of the rangers maybe who could become one later on maybe, if he has time to be more active.
-
Maybe someone could portray two additional rangers if need be.
-
& no reason why the rp can't start with just 3 or 4 rangers. Some seasons started with just 3 rangers. Though from what I recall they were usually red, yellow and blue in most cases I think.
-
I would prefer to have one ranger per player, just to keep it fair.
Like Kor said, Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder both only had three rangers to start off with, although that changed really quickly. There's no reason why we can't start with only three rangers in that manner, and the other two can come in later on.
-
Or in our case four, also what are we going to do in regards to zords?
-
We can either use the original zeo zords, or I can go and do some research to see which zords from whatever seasons folks prefer, that still exist/were not destroyed, or list the fate of all the zordon era, first 8, 15, ? seasons.
-
I vote we first use the zeo season zords, anyother zords can be brought in later. Also why stay within the Zordon Era, there are other zords we could bring in. My New character built Tech for Earth based rangers, we could say he has "Stronger" Versions of destroyed zords that were mothballed as well as decomissioned zords.
Also we could have the Blue and Green zeo zords being remotly operated, it's been done before. Allso I was thinking maybe we have a non ranger group I came up with to Supliment the power rangers, sort of like "human Putties" if you would. Kind of like how the silver guardians were, but without the mercenary aspect and under the Command of the power rangers. I call them the Guardian Angels, after Angel Grove. They are a strike force created to deal with Incursions like Zedd and Rita, Master Vile, Etc.
-
The Zeo zords would make the most sense, because they so far have not been destroyed, and the non piloted zords could be remote controlled for the sake of using them all.
I don't know how I feel about having a group like the Silver Guardians. I always imagined the Power Rangers to be the only ones who could stand up to anything from villains like Rita and Zedd. I especially didn't really like the Silver Guardians in Time Force, even after Wes and Eric became co-leaders. If the focus is on a group of five specifically chosen people to act as Power Rangers, then what's the point of having a military group that doesn't even really help that much. I know it can be argued that the Silver Guardians actually did help out, but that was mostly once Eric became the Quantum Ranger.
Another thing I've been thinking about. Does your character really need to have the background of providing technology for Earth based rangers Rocky? If you ask me, it seems unnecessary and highly unlikely that your character would have provided support for every single Earth ranger group that has existed, because then that would mean your character would have known all about Zordon before the rest of the rangers did. I think it would seem more natural to the universe of Power Rangers if your character was a little toned down. It's fine that he has the back story with Goldar (as long as you don't let it take over the entire plot of the RP), but to also have that your character was heavily involved with other rangers seems a bit much.
-
not all the ranger teams, just Lightspeed, overdrive, and RPM. So he only provided technical consoltatin to thee eams and I was thinking of reworking it to remove the whole goldar killing parents thing cause the avengeing dead parents thng has been done. And why not with the silver guardians like group, especially after all the crap Angel Grove went.
-
Even though Angel Grove didn't have a group like the Silver Guardians to protect them, all it needed were the Power Rangers, and they always came through in the end. It just really doesn't seem necessary to have another group like that when really all the city needs are the rangers themselves.
-
OK, your the boss, but if you change your mind just let me know. Also I got a possible solution to the Zord dilima. In the next to last episode, when trey regained the Gold Ranger Powers he used them to make himself and the other rangers grow.
-
Hello, is anyone still here, testing one two three, testing.
-
I'm still here.
Interesting idea. It is similar to the mystic force season where the rangers themselves changed to zords and merged to form a megazord. It's the same season where Rita makes an appearance, as the empress of good magic or somesuch title like that.

yeah, except the megazord part.
-
this RP is harder to Kill than Darkonda from Power rangers in Space. LBTFan13 is back so maybe we can resume.
-
I certainly hope so. It's been a while so maybe someone can summarize where we last were, so everyone knows where we were.

LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
