here you can discuss the Insane Cafe 3. where should we go with this, who should join, our wacky crew, and when will these voices stop :lol:
-
I'm going to be carrying Spyro and Cynder over, but I'm going to leave Sparx out since he didn't make any friends in the Insane world and won't want to come.
Here's the room list for the characters.
222 - Tsukasa and Yuusuke
291 - Velma
300 - Stripetail
310 - Zachary
311 - Rime and Dr. James Zanasiu
312 - Dr. Yuri Kerzach
313 - Deimos
314 - Strut
375 - Mikoto
413 - Tai, Agumon, and Agumina
414 - Bulk, Skull, and B.G.
416 - Scooby and Dixie
417 - Nani, Lilo, Stitch, and Angel
422 - Spyro, Cynder, and Hunter
632 Ching "Chris" Shuang and Anton Kondrashchenko
640 - Paul Morgan and Ivan Belikov
-
Nick likes him a little bit, perhaps you can bring in one of the Guardians too, I often wonder how Volteer would reaction to this wackiness..
-
I'm not sure about that. The guardians are okay, but I never thought I'd want to role play as one.
-
Not sure which of the characters I did that folks may want to see in the next part.
-
You can bring back the tourist, and also you can bring back Oddyseus, and Brookyln, I liked him.. I'm gonna be bringing in a bunch of characters so you guys can pick some of my characters to play...
-
I have a character I plan to use who will no doubt take on an antagonistic role. Mikoto Nakadai aka Abarekiller, a former surgeon who was bored with his life and once he got ahold of the unstable zero suit decided to become a super villian because it would be fun. His two bakuryu partners might also play some role.
-
Ok, I"ll bring those 3 back. Maybe 1-2 new characters and maybe not. Plenty of time to decide so no need to hurry.
Will it be set at the new cafe, or at Shaggy's Mansion, or will Shaggy's Mansion be an inbetween while the cafe is rebuilt rp?
-
I'll keep the "military dinos" and the "combat scientists".
Mr. Bigmouth may make a reappearance.
-
Actually I was leaning towards two locations, a haiunted hotal full of wacky ghosts, and Shaggy's mansion, where you'll find out WHY Dixie doesn't like Robbie the robot butler..
-
So sort of like a Scooby Doo Movie?
Wonder if I should try doing Velma, though The Tourist is plenty smart so no real need for her. With wacky ghosts maybe not good to bring in a fairy dragon char or a a type of dinosquad character.
-
Well, its not supposed to be A Scooby Doo Movie, what with other character involved from various storylines.. as for the wacky ghosts, its part of the sheer randomness of the story. Ghosts pop up and scare customers, throw food at them, write obscene words on blank paper, that sort of thing... :)
-
Wait, my characters are from my own universes, is that allowed?
How should I work in the "combat scientists" and the "military dinos"? I want them to see some action.
-
Yeah, you can do that.. pretty much anything goes in the roleplay. as for working them,in, we'll find a way. Maybe fighting off thier pursuers from the military...
-
Hmm. Perhaps the military also wants Spyro, Cynder and the rest of the cast or a bounty hunter is after them.
-
That could work, maybe we could have chong fron the first story put a bounty on them and anyone Nick is friends with..from prison..
-
Alright, niw what should we call it? I've finished the coda to the second story, its now in the 'finished' roleplay section. I'm leaning toward Insane Cafe 3:Haunted Hotel madness", but i'll let you guys throw in your ideas as welll..
-
I added 2 new ideas for antagonists:
1.) I could port over the Dragonstorm scientists and experiments from Darwin's Soldiers. They want Dr. Zanasiu and his group dead.
As for the challenge they pose: the scientists have no morals and will kill anyone in their path and they have access to military grade weaponry. They are assisted by their experiments who are biomechanical beings capable of using psionic powers (pyrokinesis, electrokinesis, telekinesis and the like.)
2.) Another bounty hunter, this one is after Deimos.
It is hinted that someone in the military is after Deimos in this conversation at the end of the Pelvanida Arc:
"Deimos! Get out of the base immediately! There's someone who's trying to kill you and he's among the reinforcements."
In fact there could be 2; I'm pretty sure Chong's bounty hunters would not want to cooperate with the ones after Deimos.
--------------
As for the name... I choose Insane Cafe 3: Curse of the Hotel
--------------
On a side note: I noticed that RPs are VERY easy to novelize. If I ever have the time you may (very slim chance) see a little novel written on this and placed on this site.
On another side note: I just noticed that I used the trope Badass Normal. I mean, Dr. Zanasiu, Dr. Kerzach, Rime, Strut, Deimos and Zachary have no magical powers or that special armor and yet they manage to hold their own and prove a valuable asset.
-
Not sure about my other char ideas, Velma, a fairy dragon (I've 2 ideas of that char), or a dinosquad type.
-
Curse of the HoteL? I like it... and your group had years of special training anf military experience , plus enough firepower to overrun a small country. they provideed the backing the rest of the group sorely needed..
-
You can use Velma if you want Kor, and you can use your other characters as well... its up to you... if you want to put them in thats fine..
-
Your group had years of special training anf military experience , plus enough firepower to overrun a small country. they provideed the backing the rest of the group sorely needed..
Um, the doctors and Zachary are actually scientists. But there is a justification, they love to go practical shooting, which is basically simulated combat. And they were involved in thwarting a previous terrorist attack years earlier.
But Rime, Strut and Deimos have military training.
And yeah, they packed quite a bit of firepower.
And no, I may not bring in any more characters.
-
That is your choice Serris, But I expect, you, Kor, DRake, and Friendly Sharptooth, to join me in putting tofgether a romping good third story..
-
I'm just nto sure if I should stick with jsut the 3 chars or add some others like I mentioned, velma, a fairy dragon (1 of my 2 ideas) or hte dinosquad char, though i'd have to change him/her likely.
-
Do you have profiles for your characters somewhere on the site, Serris? They were all introduced so fast, I have no idea who half of them are.
-
Drake, do you have ideas for the title of the next one, or should we just go with "curse of the Hotel"?
-
I might join this one.
-
"The Cursed Hotel" may be a better idea.
-
How about "Curse of the Hauntel Hotel"?
-
That's a better idea. I assume the hotel will have the same sort of dimensional instability that allowed characters from many different worlds into the Insane Cafe?
-
You bet.. there will be craziness, bulk and Skull to provide comic relief, bounty huiunters with orders to kill, and ghosts who love to throw pies.. Think Monty Python stuck in a funhouse..
-
So you'll put Bulk and Skull in the rp, or do you mean characters like them?
-
Yes the actual Bulk and Skulll, bullies who are in the very slow process of making good..
-
I hope they don't end up running into Mikoto first...
-
So should we post char info in this thread, elsewhere, or no need?
-
We made do in the two previous Insane RPs without doing that, but perhaps it would be a good idea to add such a thing.
-
You can add background info here. We actually didn't have a discussion thread for a the second one..
-
I already provided a little bit of Mikoto's background, so here's his human form and the zero suit.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ho2Z0Zv2L1s (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ho2Z0Zv2L1s)
Some of you may recognize the suit...
-
Bulk ans Skull won't run into him for awhile, I have plabns for them.. and the second story is now officially DONE! (throws party)
Now the work begins on the third...
-
Any idea on who the bounty hunters might be?
-
Chong has heard about the Cafe;s destruction in prison and has put out a contract on Nick and Aves. Serris may also have a bounty hunter from the government try to kll the group from Pelvanida..
-
Nago's a bounty hunter, so perhaps he can show up briefly to warn Nick and the others about the bounty Chong put on them.
-
So he's the white dino ranger? (I've seen some episodes of Dino Thunder, only the first 9 but I've seen him in some morphs and the dinothunder opening videos I have.)
I'll put up info of my chars later today when my mild headache is gone. Do you prefer them all in 1 long post or 1 char per post, though that will be more then double posting.
-
Split them into two long posts, I would think, you can edit them to add more characters if you wish..
-
Yes and no. His alias is Abarekiller and some of his scenes in the series where he was in costume where then used in Dino Thunder for the White Ranger and the White Ranger clone. He also has one or two powers that the White Ranger doesn't.
Characters I will be playing in addition to him are Spyro and Cynder.
-
I Might decide to bring Ali and Littlefoot into this roleplay, but then again I might not..
-
Do you have profiles for your characters somewhere on the site, Serris? They were all introduced so fast, I have no idea who half of them are.
They're all original characters with the exception of Strut.
Dr. Kerzach, Dr. Zanasiu and Zachary are from my RP Darwin's Soldiers. They are all scientists who work at Pelvanida and have actively engaged in combat. Dr. Kerzach has not been actively engaged in combat.
Rime and Deimos are from my fan fic Twilight Valley
Here's the profiles for all of them:
Name: Dr. Yuri Kerzach
Age: 34
Species: Anthropomorphic Cassowary
Personality: Fearless, though sometimes crude and acidic. Has a twisted sense of humor.
Name: James Zanasiu
Age: 25
Species: Human
Personality: James is a jovial and friendly man. He appears carefree and irreverent but he can turn serious when the situation demands. He works mainly in the biologic enhancement department but he has spent some time in the weapons department.
Name: Deimos
Species: Utahraptor
Age: Equivalent to an 22-23 year old human
Coloration: Solid brown skin with small facial scar on the right side of his face
Eyes: Amber
Personality: Deimos is an excitable and fun-loving Utahraptor. However, his foul mouth and sometimes rude behavior have gotten him into trouble (he swears the most out of any good character in Twilight Valley). He also has an affectionate side (particularly towards his friends). He likes to engage in friendly sparring with other dinosaurs.
-
I'll post the first 3 of the characters I plan on rping in this rp. Hope it's not to long. & this is the first draft so I may do some adjustment here and there.
--------------------
Brooklyn [male gargoyle]
AFC (altered feature character)
This is the same char basically as seen in the gargyles tv series, except he's gone though some of what was a spin off series idea by Greg Weisman called Time Dancer. In that spinoff Brooklyn was to sent traveling in time by the phoenix gate. To the Manhattan clan he'd only be gone for about 5 minutes at most, but at he experienced 40 years. In this altered version he didn't spend the whole 40 years traveling. The timelords detected this and seeing the phoenix gate not under the control of a mature enough species sent the Tourist to get rid of it and to rescue the individual taken from his own time and return him to his own time. They were eventually able to do so, Odysseus using Galatine to cut the phoenix gate in half and thus rendering it non functional. Seeing how dangerous the phoenix gate was the lord president instead of hiding it, knowing that the time lords had had evil members of their race and someone else could find it gave him a 1 time permission to break the first law of time (to not met your other incarnations) so 2 future incarnations of The Tourist could each take a piece and put it somewhere or do something with it so neither piece could be found or used. He had his eyes blindfolded so has no idea what either of the incarnations look like or what number that they are.
Brooklyn was grateful to be able to finally return home. He did like seeing new places and times, but not outside his control and unable to return home. He felt he owed the Tourist something for saving him and returning him home offered to travel with him sometimes if he was allowed to return home when he wishes, which The Tourist agreed with Brooklyn travels with The Tourist from time to time. Drinking the same elixir during his time with The Tourist so his aging is halted during his travels with him.
Special Abilities: stronger then humans, can glide, ages at half the rate of humans, can heal all injures during time in stone sleep by the time he awakens when the sun sets (or 8-12 hours later) though for severe injures he'll awaken tired. The elixir he is given and drinks during his time with the Tourist halts his aging so he does not grow any older during his travels with the tourist, though he is without it when he is back home with his Manhattan clan. He can also climb by digging his fingers and toes and claws into a substance, like stone. Though there may well be some that are to dense or tough for him to do this.
________________
Ian Carlson / Sam (male human/ female UtahRaptor)
original character
This person started as a normal human till he was exposed to some primordial ooze. He started to turn into a dino and was captured by some of Veloci's agents and taken to his lab for study. The timelords of the universe that The Tourist is from saw that in this universe of where Veloci there was a high likely hood of his succeeding (unlike in other parallel universes so they gave him some special bombs or his mission to plant to stop Veloci. He want there with his group of friends. They formulated plan. Each person with a mission. Velma was to remain in the tardis, working with it to hack into veloci's security system and mess it up and plant worms into his system to spread to any other labs or hiding places he may have. Sara was to use her magic to be stealthy and plant the special bombs around while the rest provided a distraction and rescued any folks they could (not part of the time lord request). One of them found Ian and they had a battle with Veloci's agents and Veloci himself. The battle was after a time against them till Veloci, thinking Odysseus was dead since he had slashed or bitten through and severed his neck turned his back to him. Odysseus's curse though allowed his body to still function & he was able to shoot him in the back with his desert eagle and create a severe shock in the others when his headless body went and reconnected his head. They got the signal from Sara and got out as fast and as best as they could taking Ian with them. Once they were clear Velma set off the bombs. Veloci's building was taken out of phase with the universe put into a permanent timeloop, never learning if that world had a Mrs Monyhan or a dinosquad.
The Tourist took Ian to Ekar's empire on another world and universe so what was happening to him could be treated. Some nagas there were able to stabilize the change & teach him to control his shapeshifting since in that world they are among the masters in alchemy and shapeshifting, the race having a natural knack in both areas. & also trained her in telepathy when they noticed his female personality had it. He decided to stay with the Tourist, for now at least, since he's not fully human anymore and if Veloci or any of his agents survived his family could be at danger, but if he stays away they'll think he didn't survive what happened to Veloci's base.
Due to a subconscious reason he changes into a female instead of a male dino and the female, at least for now, as the more dominant personality. He often wears wraparound sunglasses & cosmetic contacts (the type made to change your iris color, not to correct his vision) since when the female is the controlling personality his human eyes will glow amberish and the pupils will often go slit instead of staying round.
Special Abilities: Can change into a Utahraptor. Is one of the larger meat eaters (though not as large as a t-rex. Has more acute then human senses, especially smell & greater strength and running speed.
His human form as a enhanced strength, the level of someone who works out quite a bit, without needing to work out, slightly enhanced smell. He only really has access to these in human form while the female personality is the main on in charge.
The Utahraptor form has blue scales and a white underbelly with glowing amber eyes with slit pupils.
She also uses the name Sam. She is also telepathic, not sure if I'll do it only in dino form and maybe only telesend. & if only with certain individuals or more.
_________________
Odysseus
Is the Odysseus from the myths, more or less. He was cursed before or during the Odyssey. He lived through the ages sometimes traveling with the Tourist for periods of time, spending some time on earth and some on other worlds and universes he traveled to with the Tourist. He has assumed some various known identities like Sinbad, Sir Bedwyr (knight of the round table), Little John (of Robin hood myths) as the most famous ones. Being unaging it was easy for him to amass a fortune, or more then one, across time. He is skilled in some various old and ancient martial arts and various other skills he learned. Many of these he may be rusty since he may have not used some skills or knowledge for quite some time. So though the events of the odyssey happened some 3,000 years ago, he's really around maybe 4-5 thousand.
Special Abilities: the gods cursed him. He does not age, can't die. He ages at the normal rate, not a faster rate then a normal human. Lethal diseases can't effect him, normal ones can. Many diseases he's immune to from exposure. He can regrow a severed or destroyed body part, or reattach it. He can be hurt as any normal human can, just can't die and given time his body will go back it's normal condition, a side effect is he's immune to most types of shapeshifing (why Circe's magic didn't effect him.) He also has Galatine (the sword in the stone, not Excalibur which is a different sword given to Arthur by the lady in the lake) and a magic scabbard that keeps the sword and itself invisible and though the scabbard is only a few inches long it can still ensheath the entire sword.
He's 6.5-6.8 feet, and very strong for a human, not super human, but in the upper levels of human possible.
The current name he's using is Rex Hamilton and he's been using it for the past 5-10 years or so.
-
I read the first Insane Cafe and I liked the battle with the enchanted sporks. Can we implement something like that? Perhaps the hotel manager had accidentally hired one of Chong's bounty hunters (also a mage) as a chef.
-
Yeah we could do that.. We could have Aves play the mage..
-
Does he have time? He seems very very busy.
Sara
a golden scaled human size dragon (fairy dragon) female.
She met the Tourist during his trips to her world in the dragon empire or Ekar the 2nd. They became friends and she accepted his offer to travel with him, which she does, though she spends some time back home also.
Special abilities: unaging, as all of her species are. She can look human, or other appearances, though only really does this when she is with the tourist on his travels to worlds & universes not use to seeing a dragon. She can do magic, of the dragon & dragon fairy type, but isn't trained in combat, using magic more for the everyday utility type. Though she does know some combat useful spells as part of her regular training & some more stealthy ones also. Her everyday occupation back in her home world is mainly as a scholar with a side business in making enchanted items for everyday use, niknaks, handy items, and other such stuff. With some knowledge of alchemy. She is studying the deeper type of magic so she'll know the theory, physics, cosmology, mathematics, ect of magic, a far far more complicated way to study magic instead of spells with maybe a little theory but she'll be far more flexible and with far more flexible magic abilities, knowledge ect.
Usually wears a belt with bags of holding type of things, enchanted so only she can open them.
-----------------------
The Tourist
He's a male time lord usually wearing various clothing, which he changes from time to time. He is an agent of the PIA (parachronic intervention agency) which use to be the CIA back in the Dr's day, before they developed the tech to travel to other universes as easily as back and forth in time. He travels around doing missions, and between missions also. He has met many folks and made friends and acquaintances across many times and universes and planets. His tardis being of a modern type can travel back and forth in time, as well as sideways and slantways and is sentient but usually quiet.
During his studies in the Time Lord Academy he would up getting doctorates in various sciences, electronics and medicine. During his comparative medical and science classes he studied sciences and medicine across a number of universes & got degrees and medical doctorates across a number of different universe & times (though not required as part of his classes it did give him extra credit). Among the folks he studied under were Dr. Mcnider (the golden age Dr. Mid-nite) Joe Kido (the adult version of the season 1 character who was an adult and a doctor) Professor Moran (a sentient gorilla college professor who taught physics and a few other subjects who once he he became friends with and traveled with him once The Tourist graduated from the time lord academy until he (Moran) became a king. While studying in the Digital world he also made many digimon friends including Guilmon who traveled with him for a while. He also studied in other places across other universe including Vulcan science academy, Vulcan and Deltan medical schools, the imperial Medical & science academies on Korodos, (after he amassed a fortune using his tardis so he could pay his way in since he was not from the world and had no titles or anything there, and some other places.
He also picked up and carries various tiny and small gadgets and stuff from the past of earth and other worlds like a few lucifer matches, a 1917 cigarette lighter and the like. He was given his doctor's black bag (which is from the 1940's and the only 1 he has) by Dr. Mcnider since it used to his black bag when he use to practice medicine.
His longest and oldest friend is Odysseus which at his point of view he met during his first trip to Camelot. He met Sir Bedwyr and assisted him on one of his errantry quests. Sir Bedwyr knew him but he had not met Sir Bedwyr yet. He assumed he had met him somewhere in Sir Bedwyr and his own future at some point and gave it little thought. One of his next missions was to join Jason's Argonauts and to ensure he succeeded in his mission. Things went well and not to surprising, though exciting. The odd thing, to him, came when one of the Argonauts after the main famous mission was over introduced him to his children saw his eldest son Odysseus who looked exactly like a younger version of Sir Bedwyr. He was a bit surprised but hid it, not knowing how a human could live such a long time, put it off as an ancestor of his. During another mission or to later he ran across Odysseus again, who eventually after their having a few adventures together took The Tourist into his confidence about his curse.
On another trip he went to another world where Ekar the 2nd has an empire and helped him, the conclusion of an adventure there of which he was adopted to his family. He also has been studying a bit of dragon magic now and then. Ekar 2nd gave him some elixir to give to his traveling companions so they do not age while they travel with him, though he also drinks some himself so he doesn't age either. He is given a new amount when he visits again.
Has used the name Jason Laris. Jason is from his friend Jason and the Argonauts, and Laris is the last name of the Dragon Emperor Ekar the 2nd who adopted him into his family, so technically it is his legal last name. He also met Sara during this and they became friends. He told Ekar the truth of his nature and Ekar gave him some Elixir to share with his traveling companions so they do not age during their time traveling with him. He drinks this himself so he won't age, putting off his regenerations and extending his life thereby, though he's no immortal, just extending his already long lifespan & pretty much stops his aging.
He has also started to study the deeper magic like Sara has, and has her as one of his tutors, when he's away from being able to study at Korodos under one of the imperial wizard mage types who tutor the imperial family & their chosen friends. This was made possible since he was made possible with what the emperor had himself and some nagas perform some sort of ritual of which he the tourist does not remember since they blanked out his memory & kept him unconscious till the ritual was fully over a few months later, made more complicated since he was not a normal human, or other race but a time lord which complicated matters. They did this since till he can understand the ritual better since it could be dangerous to himself if he were to try to do bits of it.
His pockets are larger inside the outside. He carries many things in his pockets of various types form his travels that he has picked up, bought, been given, ect.
______________________________
Velma [female human, fc]
likely after the scooby gang broke up. She first met the Tourist and Odysseus while she was at a dig with one of of her Archaeologist uncles at a Greek, or near the Greek area, dig. He called in a person who was an expert in many ancient languages and some areas of history (Odysseus) When he showed up he brought along a friend of his (the tourist), also knowledgeable in languages, and certain spots in history, far more narrow, such as Jason and the Argonauts who called himself Jason Laris. Someone wanted the treasure for themselves and made the others seem it was undead to try to scare off the others. She not only found clues to solve this mystery, but also found some clues that lead her to the conclusion that these 2 were more then they seemed, including some equipment she saw them pull out of pockets, like Odysseus pulling out a sword from nowhere & his friend using feather shurikens (from Gatchman) and other things & clues. After the mystery was solved. At the conclusion she took him up on his offer to show her his tardis. She was unsure, but her uncle and Odysseus were old friends so she felt safe. She saw the inside of the tardis and when he explained what it was took him up on his offer of a spin around time for a bit. They traveled together for a bit. Taking the magic elixir so her aging was stopped while she traveled with him. Then she got homesick and went back home. He returned her 1 second after she left and left her a small communications device so he could contact her if she wished to travel again or if she needed help.
She next saw him a short time to a year or so later when she was on the set of one of Scooby Dee's movies being shot not to many hours drive from where she was visiting. During the investigation she was put into a trap and seeing no way out used her communications device. The Tourist and his then traveling companions, Odysseus & Sara (using an illusion or shapeshift to look human) came in answer to her call and they together got her out and solved the mystery. She travels with them from time to time. She was later given a digivice and acquired a digimon.
-
He did say in pm that he would be interesting in rping with us..
-
Though up to him and you admin. As long as he is sure he has plenty of time to do everything else in his life too.
-
If Aves isn't here, I can take the role of the mage/chef/bounty hunter.
-
Thank you Serris for offering to be the backup..
-
I'm introducing a fourth character now. A Blackguilmon. I'll post up a bio of him when I have more time later.
-
Thats fine.. When Sharp joins us I'll have him post his characters in this thread too..
-
Any idea what's taking him so long?
Blackguilmon
Species: Balckguilmon :p
Attribute: Virus
Type: Reptile Digimon
Abilitiies: Stronger than a human and possesses a hightened sense of smell. Possesses the Pyro Grenade attack which fires a purple sphere of energy from his mouth and the Virus Breath where he exhales a virus infected cloud from his mouth. He could digivolve, but currently isn't strong enough to do so under his own power.
History: He spent most of his time wondering the Digital World, occasionally stopping in villages. He is a shameless prankster and never passes up the oppurtunity to play a joke on someone. He is still very much a kid at heart, inspite of his somewhat boastful nature.
He'll probably end up hanging out with Bulk and Skull.
-
Sounds like a lot of villains you are doing, including that one.
-
No, he's more of the annoying kid type than the villian type. He's more or less harmless.
-
Like Bulk & Skull in the MMPR era? for some reason Blackguilmon gives me a funny image in my mind of Velma having a digimon. No idea why the image popped into my mind.
-
The idea of him gaining a partner did pop into my mind as I was contemplating him, granted he isn't likely to go into it willingly, since he prefers to think of himself as independent.
Yeah, like Bulk and Skull, only Blackguilmon could actually fight if he had to.
-
Itss one of those stranfrge images that comes to you out of nowhere, and just seems to work... Bull and Skull right now are being dragged to the signin desk.. They and Hunter forgot to sign in..
-
I didn't mean for blackguilmon to be Velma's digimon, just an idea & image I had. I've seen a few episodes of each of the 3 seasons, but don't know anything really about Digimon. If anything he'd likely stay independent or maybe reverse the digimon thing thing and have Bulk & Skull work for him as his lackeys maybe. ;)
-
Yeah thatr could work.. :D Bulk and Skull waiting on him hand and foot..
-
Maybe. :lol
-
That would be a funny scene. I'd liek to see that in a video. :lol
If I want to give Velma a digimon I'd have no idea which one would suit her best. Or make her into a magical girl, or maybe a dragon's familiar. or leave her the same.
-
Perhaps Gatomon, which is a cat Digimon, IIRC. Leave her the same person, but with some awareness of magic..
-
gatomon does spells? I didn't know digimon could do magic.
-
I'm talking about Velma being the same person. Gatomon has some "magical abilities, all digimon do.."
-
I'm confused.
-
I can tell. Each digimon can do certain "attacks' such as pepper breath, ice blaster, etc, which are "magical" in nature. Velma's really smart , so she'll figure out the digimon has special powers very quickly..
-
I still don't understand what you are going at.
Maybe best to have her go the route of something simple since I don't understand much, like the supersentai or magical girl route.
-
Just go whatever route you're comfortable with...
-
more likely what my limited intelligence can understand and comprehend.
-
Its alright, just work with what you can..
-
besides with a digimon wouldn't such an alien creature get notice if velma carried one around?
-
Well, in Lilo and Stitch, they pased Stitch off as a dog, and in the show Digimon, the characters let their Digimon go around with them, and the people around them didn't seem to notice or care..
-
maybe since digimon are common in that world.
-
People are not going to care in this world, that a digimon walks around with Velma, strange pairing happen all the time in this world..
-
The problem would arise later should she want to take it home with her. :p
-
Maybe. I'd still have to do a huge amount of research to pick which one is best for Velma, then to give it a backstory and a personality.
-
Take as long as you need, theres no rush.."
-
It may take me months, considernig how many digimon are on the list on the wikipedia list.
-
Just pick out one of the 8 main ones from season one. Agumon and Gabumon are taken, so Birdomon, Gomamon, and the others are available. By taken I mean they'll appears as characters in this story elsewhere..
-
guess I can rule out gatomon, bad idea to have a cat with scooby around I'd guess. and guillmon is taken as blackguillmon, or however you spell that.
I still find that image funny. Bulk and Skull the lackeys of Blackguillmon. :lol
-
Yeah, that image is sticking with me too. "Wash between the claws! "Yes, master!' :lol:
-
Perhaps I should give him some kind of nickname, since Blackguilmon is quite a lot to type out.
-
How about Blackie? Nah that might not be Pc..
-
Pc? I'd rather have a more thought-out name for him. Maybe Kuro, which I think is Japanese for black.
-
Or his initials, bg. Though the Japanese word for black may fit better.
-
B.G. is an interesting idea, it sort of reminds me of B.J. from M*A*SH* and it would be a more logical choice then Kuro, since the only character there who knows Japanese is Mikoto and he isn't likely to give Blackguilmon a name.
-
P.c stands for politicially correct, Bg fits imo, so you can use that as his nickname..
-
I don't have ideas for what Spyro can sing for the contest at the moment. None of the songs I can think of, sound like something that might be from his world.
-
Use one of the closing songs from the Spyro games. "This Broken soul" Or I would Die for you". Or you can have Cynder go first..
-
I think Velma knows Japanese.
As for songs, how about something final fantasy, that is a popular game series I hear, or a song from a fantasy movie or cartoon.
-
Okay, the song thing is out of the way. Is the tardis set to be invisible at the moment, or something? If not I could have Mikoto come and investigate it...
-
At the moment it looks like velma's car. Forgot to mention that.
-
Why don't you have Velma come in and Meet with Scooby and Dixie?
-
Sorry for the delay. More computer trouble... Anyway, it was suggested that I try out certain characters to share, so I'll be working with them. I won't provide any for just myself because I'm still an amatuer with role playing and I can only work with so many characters in each one right now.
Licensing:
Monster Rancher is owned by Tecmo.
Digimon is owned by Bandai.
The original charcters "Agumina" and "Tigress of the Moon" are owned by Nick22.
I'll be working with a male digimon type Agumon that has been seen in the Anime series, movies, video games, and mangas before, and a new female one. All Agumon are called simply that, so to distinguish between them, the female one's nickname is "Agumina."
Standard Agumon has two well known appearances, one in the Digimon Savers Anime and the other everywhere else. It was recommended to use his "everywhere else" form, which looks like this:
(http://s.bebo.com/app-image/7936535889/5411656627/PROFILE/i.quizzaz.com/img/q/u/08/03/24/AGUMON.jpg)
His defining character trait is his leadership tendencies, and he often mentors others, and therefore comes across like a teacher to characters, like Scooby.
As for Agumina, she is peach colored instead of being orange oriented, and she has a less muscular build. She is fond of human make-up and wears pink lipstick everywhere she goes. Her defining character trait is her idolizing of Agumon. She absolutely adores him. He is quite the hero, but she doesn't just like him for that...
Most digimon' have the same powers despite gender, as there are very few exceptions, such as Angemon and Angewomon. Still, they can both have a fair share of usefulness.
The Agumon type powers (Fire Element):
Pepper Breath : Spews flaming breath to strike its opponent
Pepper Blast: Charges Pepper Breath in its mouth and then spits it out all at once as a powerful stream of fire
Pepper Volcano: Blasts a giant fire ball from mouth to cause an explosion
Standard attack:
Baby Claw: A strong, slashing attack with claws
____________________________________________________________________
A similar pairing is done through Monster Rancher, as I'll be working with both Tiger of the Wind "Tiger" and a female version of the same monster type, called Tigress of the Moon "Tigress."
Again, being the same type of monster, it would be contradicting to the Anime to give separate powers per gender, so Tigress' powers are the same as Tiger's. And of course, even if the ability sets are the same, two characters can do more than just one.
He is a gruff character that gets very aggresive and has a cold outer demeaner, although he really does care for others. Tiger looks like this:
(http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/furry/images/3/3b/Tiger_of_the_Wind.jpg)
Tigress is purple oriented and goes about life in a much more jovial manner, wearing a positive countenance most of the time. Like Agumina, Tigress has also come to appreciate human facial products and dons lipstick as well, only she prefers red.
The Tiger monster type powers (Lightning and Ice Elements):
Lightning, Blizzard, and Ice Bomb
And standard attacks:
Torpedo, Bite, and Scratch
(As of now, I assume "Torpedo" is a physical attack, but I'll correct this if I find out otherwise later.)
____________________________________________________________________
I love a good challenge, so using these characters will be great, because my knowledge of them is very limited. I have only seen half of Agumon type powers in use and the same goes for the Tiger monster type. I'll have to search for images and perhaps videos of what the abilities look like so I can use them properly when the times for them come.
Unlike most people, RPs are more like enjoyable work to me, and not so much a game. In the end, my paycheck will be to copy the finished result on my computer to look at it with pride. The harder I have to work on them, the more satisfying the reward. I look forward to starting soon. Later!
____________________________________________________________________
There it is, Nick22. Did I cover this like you wanted it to be? Please make me aware of any adjustments that need to be made and I'll see to them right away.
-
Looks great. Now just introduce these characters into the roleplay, and we'll be set to go! We'll have our full team..
-
Are the Digimon and monster rancher characters going to have partners or will they be working with the other member of their species of the other gender instead of a human partner? Just curious.
-
We could have both actually, they could pairwith thier female counterpart AND thier human friend. Agumon 's partner is named Tai. Tiger doesn't have partner per se but Genki is the human he roams around with..
-
Is that the same as in the anime/cartoons?
-
same as in the cartoons correct... :)
-
Ah, I thought so, just wanted to be sure.
-
So we don't have to go read back over the whole topic, I've compiled a list of who has which room in the hotel.
291-Velma
300-Stripetail
375-Mikoto
413-Tai, Agumon, and Agumina
414-Bulk, Skull, and B.G.
416-Scooby and Dixie
417-Nani, Lilo, Stitch, and Angel
422-Spyro, Cynder, and Hunter
-
Good idea. As Tai, Agumon, Agumina come in, we'll list the rooms they're staying in as well. Same goes for Genki , Tiger and Tigress.
-
And anyone else who shows up and gets room. I forget, did the Pelavandi, or however you spell it, get the keys to their rooms yet?
-
yeah, they're all on the third floor. 310 to 314 I believe...
-
Good idea, listing the rooms.
-
I'm bringing in Agumon, Agumina and tai. Once they're established, we'll have sharp take control of them..
-
I wonder if they and Veemon will know each other or not. Guess we have to wait and see. :)
-
They might, if not, they will soon enough..
-
Or they may say eek and run away screaming. :lol
-
Feel free to ask for any help here The Friendly Sharptooth. :)
I found some Videos of Agumon that may give some more info.
Agumon's Digivolutions (season 1) & in English From Koromon to Wargreymon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hd-zie69jIQ&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hd-zie69jIQ&feature=related)
Doubt it'll come up but here is part of an episode of a corrupt digivolution from Greymon to Skullgreymon corrupt since Tai force it in anger and put himself into danger on purpose to force the digivolution: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CsIBBf5RQc (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CsIBBf5RQc)
Some sort of digimon game. Shows Agumon's Claw & Pepperbreath
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omldGpJU0QU (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omldGpJU0QU)
I've looked for attack powers but it seems there are none and you'd likely have to watch entire episodes to see them, though it seems there are Digimon and Monster Rancher episodes on youtube.
-
Well, I had considered having Mikoto try to corrupt someone's digivolution with his powers. After all he showed a variety of abilities in the show that the other Abarangers didn't possess, such as creating objects with his weapon, hypnotizing Bakuryus and teleportation.
-
Up to the gm and the person doing the digimon, and maybe the partner, if it's at all possible.
I only know about that since I've been watching some clips and reading some on the digimon wiki page I found to increase my knowledge about digimon stuff. As well as watching some episodes of the series also.
Sounds like the omnipower, like the green lantern ring has, or a limited omni power that some early version of spider-man and the human torch had in the comics, and some other characters too.
-
It's comparable to the lantern's power, though Mikoto primarly uses it through his weapon iits pen mode. He normally only draws energy arrows, or fires energy blasts from it though.
-
& I assume doesn't have that silly, "doesn't work on anything yellow". That I read was recently retconned to be, that is cause the yellow fear monster is imprisoned in the main power battery on OA.
-
It doesn't have any weakness that are explored in the series. The suit itself though will put quite a strain on the user's body (it took Mikoto about six months to master using it.) and eventually after its used too many times, it will self-destruct with enough force to destroy a city as large as Tokyo.
-
Something he either doesn't care about, or looks forward to I guess. I guess to defeat them they had to do the usual, pull out a bigger mech that we have but didn't show to you viewers for no good reason, or the mentor has one but ddint feel like telling the kids about it till now since he wasn't really in the mood.
-
He doesn't care, just so long as he gets to have fun. Actually, they did use a rather big mecha combination, but it was nothing new and one of Mikoto's Bakuryu's was refusing to fight and weakening Killeroh a bit. Some time afterwards, Mikoto discovers why he's such a violent and talented human is because part of the soul of the main villian of the series resided within him, so he switched to the Abaranger's side and stayed there until the villian's soul was removed from him and then the Dino Minder began self-destructing and he and Topgaler sacrificed themselves to make sure the explosion wouldn't harm earth in any way.
-
Something this version would never do.
-
Not at the moment, but maybe he'll have a change of heart like in the series.
-
After he obliterates everyone, then goes, oops, did I do that. ;)
Not sure if what Topgaler said was audible to everyone or just your char. I assumed just your char.
-
His reaction for such a situation might be an evil laugh, or if he didn't find the annihalating fun, he'd scoff and walk off.
Anything the Bakuryu's say through the Dino Minder is audible to everyone nearby, like normal speech.
-
So I think the term for him would be anti-hero. someone who has done evil in the past, and slowly changes to the side of good, but never truly forgets his/her past..
-
I thought they'd not want anyone to know they were sentient or capable of speech.
-
Normally maybe, but since the Tourist's group didn't seem sp normal themselves, Topgaler made an exception.
-
I think thats a big difference between the Japanese and american versions of the show. in the American version, the zords never talked in fact the only weapon that talked was Saba the White ranger's sword..
-
I always assumed the dragonzord could talk since it could fight on it's own, but didn't speak English, but a language that sounded to humans like roaring & such. & the wild zords could talk to at least the red guy, in their own way, same with the galaxy beasts and one of the galaxy rangers, as I recall, though i've noet seen all the episodes of either series. But it did seem the vast majority seemed to be non sentient.
I wonder if Agumina as the same digivolutions as the season 1, or 5 Agumon, or different ones.
-
In the Japanese version of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers the Megazord could talk and was sentient as was its components, but I don't think they ever spoke. Kor's right about the galaxy beasts and wild zords by the way.
-
I don't recall if the Dynaman dub I saw in the 80's had mechs who could talk or not.
-
I've not seen Dynaman, or any of the older Sentai shows, so I couldn't say.
-
I can only remember 3 lines perfectly.
"and because girls like pink."
Woman who'll become dyna pink: "I hate pink."
"You'll be Dyna pink."
-
There will be differences in the forms Agumina transforms into. she'll become a 'Womon' form of Agumon's forms. "WarGreywomon" for example is her Mega form..
-
I guess like gatomon and whatsname being angelwoman and angelmon or somesuch names like that?
-
Soomething like that. I had to differentiate between the two genders in some way shape or form...
-
Makes sense.
Not sure if Drake would want the Tourist to get any results or not in his scanning.
-
That depends. I'm not sure Mikoto would stick around if he had a way home, so far this world has more, or less bored him. Perhaps it would be okay if the Tourist did come up with some results, but Mikoto would be prevented from going home because the Bakuryus are too big for the tardis? Though from my impressions of the tardis, I donn't think size would be an issue for it.
-
Well, because of the storm, there's noy much the characters can d for now. but in the morning the real fun will begin..
-
It could fit them likely. He could change the size of the bioplasmic shell, or have it go 2d for more size. But would he feel comfortable going into the tardis though.
Seems that Stripetail is tossing rings onto everyone.
-
theres only two more he's giving out..
-
I guess either bulk or skull and blackguilmon (or however you spell his name).
With the evil folks running around, and them all being powerful, maybe instead of Velma I should have done whatshisname from digimon season 5, the human who takes on digimon himself and came out with a draw when fighting Agumon. :p
Is that Aves who's talking like Mr. T?
Guess I shouldn't post again till all the setting info is posted. Then come up with some new characters from scratch.
-
Well, lets give him and Sharp some space to catch up. we've been goigng at a rate of 4 pages added a day... You can add a couple posts, but I thiknk in fairness to the others, including Serris, that we should slow down a little, at least until everyone is caught up..
-
and no, Bulk and Skull and B.g will not be getting them.. Although they may become part of the next team. See I originally had a total of 30 people planned for having rings. each group was divided into teams. the first 10 were given the most powerful of rings, the second, slightly less powerful, and the last 10 were to be given the weakest rings. I had even given names for the groups, the Omniderin, Matahari and Liloonae, with the Omniderin being the first group, Mathari the middle group, and liloonae being the lowest group. Of course trying to fit 30 people into a story at once can be rather difficult, you inevitably give short shift to some characters..
-
You could have a 2nd and 3rd team could have their own rp threads separate from the rp thread for the first one.
Guess I'd have to redo new characters from scratch and only do 1-2 characters then, one that does fit into the theme and setting.
-
No, you don't have to re-do them from stratch, remember anything goes in this rp..
-
I'm not so sure. I'd have to have information about the setting before that.
Though watching the opening to season 5 of digimon gave me an idea for a char, though combining pulp and digimon does not fit, to bad.
-
well, the setting is a creepy hotel, and many of the characters from "rise of the shurlups" are back and staying in this hotel, which is isolated dusty, and haunted. To top all that, the staff is wacky and there are hit men out to get Nick and aves, as well as the security team(serris's characters) and well anyone who gets in thier way. You could have velma reunite with Shaggy and Scooby, she's never met Dixie, and reitroduce Veemon to Agumon and Tai. There's loads of options you can do..
-
I don't know of the entire world, the history, what fits, what does not fit, ect.
I also doubt my other char idea would fit in in any of the spin off rp threads, since he may not fit and a pulp/digimon would not fit. It's a pulp char idea i've had before, just with a digimon added in and moved from the 1920/30's era to likely the 2030's or later.
-
The only way you will know for sure if it works or not is if you try iutt out..
-
My view of RPing and writing in general is, if you think it will be fun then try it, just remember the other people involved. I almost didn't use Spyro, Cynder, or the Kiva characters in the previous RP because I was afraid they would be too powerful and unbalance the story.
-
I can post the rough first draft idea I had was. & a pretty stupid one
the pulpish char idea is someone who can have his strength increased by taking a chemical he invented himself then exposing himself to some electricity, a side effect is it temporarily increases his muscle and bone mass, making his muscles swell a bit also. also helps to protect his secret identity, since he looks far to thin to be the muscled costumed figure. Maybe some high grade plastic striking surfaces like the knuckles area. Eventually makes a belt, like a weightlifter's belt with some electrodes in it to increase his strength if he's away from his lab and a need for his costumed identity comes about. to undo the effects he gives himself a surge of positrons to undo the effects and return his looks to normal.
he could be moved to the 2030's maybe. with investigating some robberies & reports of monsters. attacks one, it tries to flee through a digiportal and one of those golden ball things comes out, thinking it's an attack he punches it but since his hand isn't open it can't put a digivice into it but makes it instead into a type of bracelet he can't take off.
Eventually he grabs hold of one and is taken into the digital world, fights it there and encounters some digimon, who wonder what sort of digimon he is. 1 may help him battle the monster. Maybe is a but surprised to see a digimon wearing a digivice (assuming a digmon knows a digivice if they see one) and after the battle and talking to this strange person becomes convinced, at least at first, he's some sort of rare digimon, who's earlier stages are called johnmon, human,and his current stage is called thefistmon, but he prefers to be called fist instead of his whole name.
A stupid idea but that is the first draft idea, and pretty stupid. Maybe using a portal or combining his own devices he winds up outside the digital world and elsewhere. with his new partner.
-
The trick to playing with powerful creatures is to impose limits on what they can do, and to try to always work with the other characters in the roleplay..
-
what power, he's not that powerful.
-
He was referring to my comment.
-
oh, thought he meant my character idea, as lousy as it is. no idea how he'd be to powerful.
-
in my experience there is no such thing is a lousy idea. theres ideas that may need to be reworked so they fir in better, but i don't reject characters out of hand. every person brings thier own ideas to the roleplay, thier own characters with strengths and weaknesses, and we make the best of what each person contributes..
-
not sure I understand what you man.
-
I WANT you to use your ideas , Kor. No matter how stupid they may seem ton you, others might actually like them. (points at self) I can work with just about anything, save god-modding... Just have your future character drop in, like so many other characters do, out of the blue, and We'll get to work on fitting them in.
-
I'll post this in 2 parts since when I typed the info up I got more info then I planned.
Name: Terry "Slick" Higgins
Other Alias: The Green Shadow
Species: Human (enhanced)
Native Year: 2045
Costume: It is made of a mix of varicloth and some memory plastic fibers. This lets it change it's color, good for low light camouflage and stealth, and it can also reshape itself to an extent to switch from normal clothing and appearance and his costume. He's done some slight modifications over time. It has high tech plastic areas for armor and striking surfaces. It also repels water and most dirt and stuff so is self cleaning. It also has some solar cells (though they don't look like solar cells, but regular cloth being a high tech sort of thing) so over time his clothes/costume can recharge his other gear. & has some batteries built in to store the power. It also has a built in voice modulator to make his voice sound different, even to a computer trying to analyze his voice.
Gear: He has a wrist computer on his left wrist and a digivice on his right wrist. He's tried to remove the digivice but it has always been impossible no matter what he used, even to cut it off at the band so he's long sense given up. His goggles have multiple functions like lowlight intensification, polarization, infra-red. He also wears a belt under his shirt that can he uses to deliver special electricity or to reverse its polarity and use positrons to undo the effects of the dragon elixir he takes.
Dragon Elixir: It can, when applying the proper amount of electricity to his body can enhance his body. Some enhancements include increased density of his bones and increased muscle mass. Roughly around 150 pounds. The notes from his ancestor claims he devised the formula from older one that claimed it would give one the lifespan and power of a dragon. Unknown to him at the time but his aging has been greatly slowed, even more so since he spends so much of his time with the effects fully turned on while in the digital world.
Weapons: He modified his ancestor's design to have an tiny electrodes in the knuckles of his gloves so he can deliver an electric punch (like that of a stun gun device that does exist in this world). He has also used metal and examining Hawkmon's feather closely fashioned himself some similar throwing weapons. His gloves have built in circuitry so he can, if he presses a certain spot while punching, can deliver an electric touch range only additional attack to his punch. He can control the intensity or turn it off. This is powered by the built in power storage in his gloves.
Plus whatever (if any) effects on a human would be from breathing digital world air, and consuming digital world water and food for long periods of time as he has been doing.
His gear and such are waterproof so swimming under water doesn't harm any of it. And as mentioned above his costume dries very very quickly.
______
Name: Hawkmon
Species: Digimon
Nickname: Hawky
Pretty much the same one seen in season 2, but later in his timeline.
-
Basic History: He had a fairly normal life at first, going to college & university, helping to run the company set up by one of his ancestors. Then came robberies and the reports they were done by monsters and were to powerful to stop.
He went to the safety deposit box where some papers of one of his ancestors that his family history said use to be some sort of masked mystery man hero type nearly a hundred years ago. He took the papers home, that had not been looked at in many decades or longer.
He looked them over and saw that he did claim to be what family history had claimed and that he was active from the 1930's into the late 1940's. Looking them over he understood the formula for what his ancestor called dragon elixir and used his knowledge of science to concentrate the formula using modern technology and used some of his other notes for the costume idea, basing it on some designs his ancestor had drawn. He used some more modern and cutting edge technology to design his costume.
Some things he used was high tech plastics for the striking surfaces and some lightweight armor for parts of his costume and added in some gell for the striking surfaces so his body would not take the hit as much. He also used modern tech fabrics that were expensive to sell just on the street like varicloth that could alter it's color to an extent, good for lowlight stealth camouflage. Their normal color is a dark greenish color. They can also change their color for normal wear and some memory plastic fibers so if he needs to quickly he can switch from his normal clothes to his hero costume or back. He also added in a wrist computer he wears on his left wrist and
goggles that have polarization, infra-red, lowlight, and some magnification (not as good as specialized electronic binoculars). He hid this manufacture and such under dummy companies, temporary fake corporations and such. Once he had everything ready he staked out a likely place where they may strike next, reports continued coming in. And he saw a flash of light and went to investigate. He saw they were instead some sort of humanish size monsters (digimon). He went in to stop them and battle them. He battled them and some of them opened a portal thing to try to flee. He saw some sort of gold ball come towards him and thinking it some of attack punched at it, but his fist went right through it.
He battled mainly one, while the others got away. They battled and it went through the portal after throwing him off. He was able to do a typical long jump and grab onto it and continue their battle through the portal. On the other side he was able to get in a last blow, and was surprised when his opponent glowed and shrank and then ran off. He let it go since he wasn't in super shape himself.
He found himself in a new world and found out it contained odd sentient creatures who called themselves Digimon. He fought some bully digimon and wound up meeting Hawkmon when he came in to help with one of the battles. Eventually he was able to get some items to cobble together what he hoped would let him get home. Up till then he was able to interact with his own world/time as far as email, websurfing, watching online videos and such through his wrist computer, but had no way to return.
His first attempt got him into a pirate ship. After a time he returned to the digital world. The second foray out he wound up on another pirate type ship. The 3rd attempt he would up in an old west time on what he was sure wasn't his world since it had an anthro bee sheriff who used a stinger gun, a thing he was sure he'd had heard of if it had been his own world. After some more time in the digital world and resetting the setting on his device he would up in the era of his ancestor. Together they were able to partially refine his cobbled together device. Knowing of his plight his ancestor set things up so he could access a certain account that would have a percentage of the family corporation's profits put into it, s that way he would have access to money regardless of what era or year he appeared in, at last as long as it was after this one. And after helping him with a few cases he returned to the digital world.
Another resetting and he would up in what he was again sure wasn't his own world. This was in the 80's in japan and he met and helped the Dynaman team (the goofy spoof dub version). The thing he believed to be proof it wasn't his world was everyone in japan spoke perfect American English, but still wrote in Kanji, no one spoke English, but their lips didn't match what they were saying, reminding him of a dubbed movie. Dr Ho was able to help him with his device to improve it further. He stayed for a while but returned to the digital world once more.
Another trip to the digital world and when he made a foray out he would up with a group of anthro dinos that called themselves the Extreme Dinosaurs. Stegs was able to refine and improve his device even farther. He again stayed for a bit then returned to the digital world again. Battling some evil or bully types of digimon here and there.
He's made one brief foray out trying out new settings once. They encountered an annoying teen girl (Rika though he didn't know her name), doubtlessly a villainous type in the making since she attacked first and civilians & heroes do not attack first. He and Hawkmon battled her digimon lackey (Renamon) who attacked them first. When the villianess did a digimodify move he took out the digi-egg of love and had digivolved Hawkmon into Halsemon and together they beat her digimon then he knocked out the human master and took her digivice, he hoped ending or severely limiting her villainous career then left returning to the digital world before her master or his other lackeys showed up, he took the card things she had been using and some of the others she had been using to further hamper her villainous career. Half he gave to Stegs (of the Extreme Dinosaurs) to look over, the over half Dr. Ho to look over. He's not yet visited his friends to see what results, if any, their examination has had. He also left the digivice with Stegs and plans on, once Stegs is finished examing it, taking it to Dr. Ho (of dynaman) to examine also.
By this time he had spent about 2 years off and on, in the digital world. He is nearly always (95-55%) in his Green Shadow identity while in the digital world for multiple reasons. 1 is that he is recognized there, and feels that his Terry identity has really no place and nothing to do there unlike his Green Shadow Identity.
At first he was angry, then a bit depressed, but over time, and some of the folks he encountered and with Hawkmon's help and being there he came to accept that he would likely never get home, but could at least interact with it through the internet. But he could leave it when he wanted and could visit some past friends (like the Dynaman team & the Extreme Dinosaurs since those spots seem goofier then usual especially Dynaman) he had made if he reset his device to match the settings of when he appeared there, and he can avoid returning to certain places also since he made a recording of where the various settings sent them to.
Though he had the setting for home he could not get there, almost as if something were blocking him, someone or the digital world itself. He's modified his gear and such over time.
-
A very interesting character. You can have him pop in at the hotel after (yet another) failed attempt to get home.. Have him appear as Terry Higgins first.. Thats what most heros do, they use their human aliases first..
-
& hide Hawkmon under his shirt or have him pretend to be a feathered statue sort of thing?
-
No, Hawkmon can roam about freely, after all, there are 4 other digimon at the hotel now..
-
But My char does not know that yet.
-
You could pass hawkmon off as a pet owl (yes there are such things) and not let him speak until they are headed to their room..
-
I didn't think of that thanks.
-
no problem :D
-
I'll mention the abilities of all of my characters:
Dr. Kerzach: inherent weaponry (5 inch toe claws)
Dr. Zanasiu: none
Zachary: high strength (7x peak Human), high stamina,
Rime: high strength (3x-4x peak Human), superhuman vision and sense of smell, inherent weaponry (hand claws, teeth, 4 inch foot claw), tough skin
Deimos: high strength (high even by Utahraptor standards), inherent weaponry (hand claws, teeth, 9 inch foot claw), tough skin, superhuman vision and sense of smell, large size (1,200 lbs)
Mr. Bigmouth: large size (~1 ton), inhuman strength, tough skin
Ms. Swimmer: large size (~1 ton), inhuman strength, tough skin
Deimos is the strongest character in the group and Dr. Zanasiu is the weakest (slightly above average strength by Human standards).
On a side note: can they all remain Badass Normals (No magic armor)?
-
of course, they can remain without magic armor, don't worry.. :)
-
The Pelvanida group has rooms 310-314.
Room 310 - Zachary
Room 311 - Rime and Dr. James Zanasiu
Room 312 - Dr. Yuri Kerzach
Room 313 - Deimos
Room 314 - Strut
-
thanks we should probably update out list.. I'll go look up where Tiger Togress and Genki are..
-
For Mikoto if you want him to remain in the rp it could be for a variety of reasons, time needed to locate the planet and maybe universe he's from, and other reasons so he's around till the rp is over. and afterwords if you'd (and or the gm) want him to maybe appear it can be said The Tourist offered you a communicator so you can call and as him to drop you off on earth if you want to visit it again. You can even say he drops you off offscreen or something in future rp's.
Just a few ideas I had earlier today.
-
Well, for the moment, he's planning to play a "game" of some sort as soon as morning comes, his current target being Tiger. Who knows where that might lead?
-
Interesting.. well, Tigeress will have something to say about that! :D
-
Well, Mikoto is used to fighting three-four enemies at a time, so two against one will be nothing new to him.
-
but if the fight spills into the hallways and wakes everyone else up...? :)
-
Then he'll either have to retreat, or maybe call in Topgaler and Stego...
-
Well, we;'ll see won't we? I've moved the story up to around 6. a.m
-
If the foes get to giant, I may have The Tourist pull out a dragon pearl. Just to give the good guys equal power to the bad guys. :DD
-
keep that in reserve, we may need it...
-
I've added the assassins who are after Deimos and the rest of the Pelvanida group.
I am also considering having the Dragonstorm scientists mount a full on assault on the hotel (much later). And yes, the Dragonstorm scientists have their own private army.
-
Interesting. But have they ever faced a magician of Stripetail's caliber? ;) Probably not...
-
The private army consists of biomechanical beings capable of using psionic abilities.
I'll see when I should introduce them.
Oh, please don't pull off a "gamebreaker" situation with the physical god Stripetail.
Let everyone get in on the action... Even Shaggy, Velma and the Digimon. Especially the Pelvanida group and Ms. Swimmer.
-
After the curse has been explained and investigated ie.. a little further on into the story..
-
Not sure what is going on but ok. If Velma will get into the action and considering how vulnerable she is not not into combat, except for kicking one of the costumed fake monsters, maybe she'll need Jason to hand her something like a forcefield or a Dune Personal Shield, or something.
-
Well, if you don't want Velma to get caught up in the assault then you could have her hide somewhere.
But if you do decide to have her involved, you could have Velma do what Shaggy did in the Insane Cafe 2: use an improvised weapon.
-
Everyone will be involved Serris, its not going to be Stripetail by himself taking on these guys. its going to be everyone, Velma, Shagggy, Ribbie. B.g Veemon, etc etc... I don't god-mod. period and I'm sorry If it came out like I was proposing that..
-
I've given rooms to the bounty hUnters. Have you given them names yet Serris? They're in rooms 632 and 640.. We really should puut up an updated list of who hass what room..
-
The Chinese man is Ching "Chris" Shuang
The Siberian Husky is Anton Kondrashchenko
The Shire horse is Paul Morgan
The Russian man is Ivan Belikov
-
Alright, Nice names. Now try and give them some background,. how did they become hitmen, why were they hired to kill the Pelvanida guys? Stuff like that.. This thread is the place for backgrounf details like that...
-
I wonder what sort of weapon would be good for Velma. Maybe something the Tourist can lend or give to her. If it's a projectile I guess a Dune style personal shield would be out since it won't let in anything moving fast if I recall the book correctly. Maybe one based on the force field belt that the legion's braniac 5 uses but smaller then a belt size. Maybe the size of a pack of cigarettes or something.
-
Well, the Pelvanida group has only 5 weapons.
Deimos's pistol that he snuck into the hotel
Dr. Kerzach's switchblade that he snuck into the hotel
Rime's sword that was given to him by Deimos (pilfered from a ghost)
Dr. Zanasiu has Nick's small handgun
Zachary has a fire ax he found in the hallways.
A projectile weapon from the Tourist would work fine or you could do what Zach did, find a weapon in the hotel.
-
He does have 1, but that is Odysseus's Desert Eagle which he has since with his dimensionally transcendental pockets he can more easily carry it concealed so he can hand it over then Odysseus could.
I've not mapped out everything he has in his pockets, thought it best not to.
-
Theres lots of things Velma could use. a Candlestick holder, for example. If it was good enough for Professor Plum in the study, its good enough for her.. :)
-
Or a star trek next gen type 2 phaser, sunsword or something else.
-
I'll clean this up later.
Name: Ching "Chris" Shuang
Species: Human
Bio:
Born into a middle class Hong Kong family, he led a perfectly normal life. That was until he found out that his father was a member of the Triads.
Name: Anton Kondrashchenko
Species: Siberian Husky
Name: Paul Morgan
Species: Shire Draft Horse
Name:Ivan Belikov
Species: Human
-
I was thinking of pulling an old western thing and say Odysseus' desert eagle is enchanted to not run out of bullets. I don't think that would be to powerful.
Maybe it is a cheap enchantment that everyone gets in the world where those westerns take place. :p Though Odysseus can get it even cheaper.
-
Well, considering that a physical god (Stripetail), dragons, Digimon, and various characters with magic rings and immortals and various other superpowered characters are present, I think an unlimited ammo handgun is one of the least powerful weapons present.
And yes, my characters have the least powerful weapons.
-
Stripetail's a wizard, not a god. and for the purposes of this roleplay, He's be more of the sage, guiding Scooby, Nick and the others along..
-
So he's not the god or magic of the world he's from, or is that what Tarrax is?
-
Stripetail and Tarrax are both immensely powerful, but they are not omnipotent.. Nor he will use his full powers in the roleplay, either.. I've patterned him after Gandalf from LOTR...
-
Interesting, I was curious if he was totally original or based on someone.
I wonder if Dixie will just leave the 2 dragons there, or will carry them down to the dining room. :smile
-
Well, he is of my own creation, but he was influenced by works I've read....
-
LOL, Yeah, I've been waiting on Drake to move those guys out of bed... :D
-
Maybe Dixie will have to carry them like pet cats. :DD
-
Dixie's not a mule :lol:
-
Maybe Shaggy's butler can carry them down, on a silk pillow. :lol
-
Ore sanjou!
Sorry, but circumstances kept off the internet the last two days, my siblings had the internet both times and the library was closed due to weather.
-
Its alright Drake. that sort of thing happens.. We'll give you a chance to catch up..
-
Okay, looks like I have quite a lot of reading to do.
-
Yeah, we've been keeping up our steady pace.. We'll have Dixie take spyro and Cynder down to breakfast, then join the group already beginning the exploration of the hotel..
-
If they are to heavy maybe Shaggy's buttler, whoever runs him, could carry one of them down.
-
If needed I could have Zachary the Clydesdale bring them down. He's as strong as 7 strong men.
-
They just woke up, so no need for that now. Mikoto is going after them though, since most of the others are occupied with exploring the secret passage.
-
Yeah, Dixie is going to escort them down to breakfast..
-
& not carry them like little kittens?
-
:lol: No, Kor. I'm seeing a confrontation with Mikoto coming..
Also Drake, We'll need a updated list of the rooms everyone is using..
-
Maybe the Spyro and Cynder will get to see what he tastes like.
-
Updated Room List:
291 - Velma
300 - Stripetail
310 - Zachary
311 - Rime and Dr. James Zanasiu
312 - Dr. Yuri Kerzach
313 - Deimos
314 - Strut
375 - Mikoto
413 - Tai, Agumon, and Agumina
414 - Bulk, Skull, and B.G.
416 - Scooby and Dixie
417 - Nani, Lilo, Stitch, and Angel
422 - Spyro, Cynder, and Hunter
632 Ching "Chris" Shuang and Anton Kondrashchenko
640 - Paul Morgan and Ivan Belikov
-
We should move the list to the first page of the discussion so it's easier to access. And thanks for updating the list Serris.
-
Yeah, Nice work, and Genki, Tiger and Tigress are in Room 410.
-
Not sure what rooms the Tourist and his group were assigned, they were using 2 rooms last night.
-
I'll look those up. If not, I can just give you rooms on the third floor..
-
New characters I'm adding in.
Tsukasa Kadoya
Species: Human(?)
Equipment: Decadriver which allows him to transform into Kamen Rider Decade and various other riders. The Ride Booker which stores the cards he uses to access the forms and weapons of other riders and can also function as a gun or sword.
History: Tsukasa is an amnesiac with no memory of his past. He is currently on a quest to save his world from being destroyed by traveling to the worlds of other riders. (The other rider worlds are merging with his, thus causing its destruction.) Before setting out on his quest, he was told that it was his destiny to destroy the other riders, though he hasn't set out to do so yet and is relunctant to become a destroyer.
Yuusuke Onodera
Species: Human
Equipment: Arcle Belt which lets him transfrom into Kamen Rider Kuuga, a warrior capable of changing forms to match situations and turn objects into special weapons.
History: Yuusuke's world was the first visited by Tsukasa. He was intially jealous of Tsukasa, afraid that he would replace himself as this world's protecter. When he discovered Tsukasa's identity as Decade, he attacked him, having heard that Decade was coming to destroy all the riders. When he heard Tsukasa had no intention of destroying the other riders, the two cooperated to defeat the Grongi plaguing that world. Yuusuke would then end up wondering into Kiva's world before finally joining Tsukasa on his journey through the rider worlds.
-
So are they good guys, bad guys or somewhere in between? I'm just curious..
-
Both are good guys, though Tsukasa seems to have a rather dark past and maybe a dark future in store for him.
-
Or what may seem like a dark future. Maybe the things that let the riders become their super selves will be taken from them and used by some evil folks or they will be mind controlled, so though he'll destroy the other riders it'll actually be good and not evil. Some prophecies do work that way in fiction.
-
Maybe, but it seemed that Yuusuke was the one who was using Kuuga's powers though he did use Kuuga's evil Ultimate form that could have just been from desperation, since Decade had already defeated all the other riders. Tsukasa might have also decided to accept his role as a destroyer, simply to save his own world.
-
thanks for the explanation Drake. be sure to add Room 222 as the room for your Characters..
-
Did it. I edited my first post in the topic, so the list is now on page one and I'll update it from here on as we go.
And by the way, neither Tsukasa, nor Yuusuke know about the prophecy where Tsukasa destroys the riders.
-
So this is all going to be revealed to them, as the story goes along.. :)
-
More then likely, unfortunately the show they originate from is still rather new so I'm probably taking a risk with using them.
-
its a risk worth taking imo.. and Mikoto is going to have to fight off oh fifteen or more pissed off guests.. :) I don't like his chances..
-
Yeah, he's in deep trouble.
-
They are a pushover for him. Very easy, as those 15 humans were easily knocked out by marcus in season 1, though it was off camera.
-
Ah, but the 2 of my characters coming after him aren't Human...
-
No problem, if he has at least half hte power of marcus, a normal human who has the strength to punch champion digimon onto their backs.
-
He's still got Topgaler and Stego, as well as Killeroh.
-
No idea who those are but that should make him way more powerful then marcus since marcus is just a normal human with an altered version of agumon.
-
Besides my characters aren't human and they're not pushovers, and they're motivated to get even..
-
The zero suit and probably the Dezumoryia inside him probably makes him a lot stronger then most humans. He's still got some very powerful enemies. I certainly wouldn't want to cross Cynder, or Decade.
-
Cynder, he could likely punt her. No idea who decade is. Sounds like a marvel villian's name. Or Dc.
-
Thats one of the reasons Season 5 Digimon was stupid, no simple jkid should be able to punch out a Champion level Digimon..
-
I'm willing to bet his strength matches or exceeds Zachary's strength.
Possibly even Deimos's strength.
-
I'm not sure exactly how strong he is, but the only other Ranger in Abareranger that was stronger then him, demonstrated the ability to toss a giant monster around with one hand.
-
Zachary is as strong as 7 strong men. (Clydesdale)
Deimos is probably as strong as 14-18 strong men. (Utahraptor)
-
Puts all my characters to shame.
-
Yeah, I think we need to cut that down, so we're not pressing up against the boundaries of god-modding. Mikoto can be stronger than say two nomal humans combined, but not be so easily able to defy a Fury from a powerful dragoness like Cynder..
-
Who? My 2 strongest or Drake's bounty hunter?
I do have to admit Mikoto is EXTREMELY strong (maybe a little too strong) but the characters of mine didn't do that bad (IE didn't get killed or injured) considering their weapons were mundane (ax, crowbar and pistol).
But one thing that puzzled me was that Strut's crowbar landed a direct hit on Mikoto's shoulders, even through armor that blow should have injured him. (remember, dinosaurs are much stronger than Humans).
-
Drake , you should tamp your bounty hunter down a bit, at the level he is at right now, only Merlin or Stripetail caould stand against him..
-
Yeah, I am getting a little carried away. I should have made him put in more effort to get through the fury... instead of making it so easy for him.
-
Well, I'm going to have Merlin take care of it, and I;m going to have the Tourist and Velma be the ones to tie him up.. Kor's feeling left out, and I want to include him in this..
-
(you want to powergame I can too. )
-
Yeah, we can't have godmodding here. I put it in the rules for a reason..
-
I'll leave my characters out of this because they already fought him (with no effect).
-
Yeah, And I';'m not getting Stripetail involved in this.. Dixie Scooby and the Others are staying out as well..
-
no, I didn't mean to powergame at all! :cry
-
I think Drake got a little tooo carried away I think We'll have Merlin or Stripetail or Sara strip Mikoto's powers until he reforms. I vote Sara to do the honors..
-
I'll understand if no one wants me to continue in the RP, I can remove Mikoto and the others and let Nick have control of Spyro and Cynder if you want.
-
I was going to have Deimos activate his "final smash" (used in the Smash -LBT crossover). The only problem is it seems REALLY random (and I have no idea how it would be activated) but there was no other way of dealing with Mikoto. I'll keep it here in case it is ever needed (and I hope it isn't)
Deimos's Final Smash
Crystal Spire: he raises his right arm and 2 crystal spires shoot up from his feet. He then grabs a spire in each hand. It lasts for about 25 seconds.
Spire strike; He stabs in front of himself with the spire. Requires at least 1 spire.
Dual spire strike; He stabs in front of himself with the spire then stabs with spire in his other hand.
Spire toss; he hurls the spire at his opponent. The spire flies in a straight trajectory and if it misses, it explodes into shards.
Spire rise; he slashes his arm upward and two more spires rise at his feet. (2% - slash, 5% - struck by rising spire)
Spire meteor; he leaps up in the air and hangs there for about a second.
Spire charge; he will hold both spires in front of himself and charge forward in the form of a blue-white energy dart.
-
You can stay, it was a mistake, pure and simple.
-
No, Drake, we want you to continue.. your characters are important to the storyline.. This will simply serve as reminder to all of us not to get carried away..
-
I'm really, really sorry everyone. I apparently have way too high an opinon of Mikoto/Abarekiller his power level should have been more around the level of Spyro and I should have introduced him after he had had his change of heart and became a hero instead of trying to play him as a villian.
-
Its alright. You were fine after battling with Dixie, Spyro, and Cynder and leaving it at a stalemate. Which is right around where his power level should be. He should have no chance against powerful wizards like Merlin Or Stripetail, or the combined forces of 15 good guys..
-
oh well. I've no opinion.
-
Speaking of power levels, where exactly would my characters rank or is it not a fair comparison (magical vs. non magical)?
No "OVER 9000!" jokes please.
But where did the number 15 come from? And I agree, I'm not sure if anyone can defend against a crowbar, an ax, 2 swords and 2 heavy sticks all coming from different directions.
-
Yours seem a descent power level, above mine for sure. Think I may take mine on a vacation.
-
Now come on kOr, this hotel IS a vacation spot, well at least it used to be...
-
My chars feel the need for a vacation from the vacation.
-
Kor, we need you, the storm is going to pass in a few hours, and most of the group is going to go into town..You are needed here...so don't get down on yourself..
-
None of my characters are needed, they are all useless. Especially the warrior and non mages ones.
-
What I'm going to do in this case Kor is Strip Mikoto of most of his powers and split them among Velma, Sara and the Tourist.. The quicker Mikoto reform the more power he'll regain, but if he takes a long time, the more those powers wil stay with velma, Sara and the Tourist and become thier own..
-
I don't see what good it'll do them, and for his powers I'd have to go to youtube and download episodes of dinothunder. I've only seen the first 9 episodes, which has bearly introduced the black ranger. The white one isn't introduced yet, just the human who will get the powers later on I think as that rich guy's son.
-
The powers that they gain will increase their own abilities. Sara's magical abilities will increase. Oddyyseus will learn some magic, as will brooklyn, stuff like creating light or fire in thier hands, and Velma's intelligence and strength increase.. The powers that gave Mikoto his abilities will now increase the internal abilities of your characters..
-
I'll look up some dinothunder episode names. Shouldn't take to long to download those, though I had not planned to do so till later and buy the dvd's latter this year.
Maybe I should bring in the full helmet golden age dr fate, if he can destroy a soul easily, I'm sur ehe can break a curse, or maybe Ibis. All he'd have to do is point is ibis stick and say, "Ibistick break curse." and that is it.
-
The curse will be lifted at the end of the story Kor, we can't have a god-character come in and lift it, then the whole story is pointless and ends far too quickly and too neatly. No, to lift the curse will require the efforrts of all the characters involved. And You don't need to look up Mikoto's abilities, because his powers, once taken out, will become very different.. they will enchance the abilities your characters have..
-
I doubt any of mine are useful, since they are not useful towards the plot, but at least I know that. I've had 2 of them go, just need these.
-
Let us be the judge of that Kor.. and Getv Terry and hawkmon back here.. All your characters are necessary.. that's my final word on the matter..
-
They are gone. as far as they can see things are back to normal, he's figured out what time and place these settings lead to and he's gone back home to the digital world. He has no logical in character reason to return here.
Found the episode the white ranger is in. he's as annoying if not moreso then certain other characters in other series. At least now I know when I do watch Dinothunder I'll stop the episode before he's introduced and not go any farther, similar to timeforce and with the annoying character in that one.
-
Well, then I'll just to make up someway to get them back.. :) Come on its lunchtime,.. and the hotel's sitting down to eat. We'll have the guard taken away from where Spyro is. and things will return to , well , normalcy..
-
Spyro can just drink a healing potion and poof he's fully healed.
-
No, because his wound is more serious than that.. besides he's unconscious at the moment..
-
Yeah, let's move the clock to lunch time.
I'm probably going to have Deimos (the paranoid guy who thinks everywhere is a war zone; I even mentioned in in RP) still be guarding Spyro.
And, Kor, your characters serve a vital plot role.
And I dispute your power level assessment. You've got 2 immortals and a guy with alien technology.
What do I have: 4 dinosaurs with improvised weaponry, 2 pistoliers (1 dino, 1 Human), a knife-fighting anthro Cassowary scientist and an ax wielding anthro Clydesdale scientist. :p
-
Yeah thats fine Serris. I've been trying to get Kor to see what I see, having the other rpers chime in, will help me make my point.. his characters are important and that will become clear as the story continues..
-
Also, when can I bring the full firepower of the Pelvanida group to bear (grenades, possibly rockets and an entire battalion's worth of small arms ammo)?
Can I just bring in the weapons that the Pelvanida group has a little earlier than the full firepower?
I know the Dragonstorm invasion is not for a while longer.
The Pelvanida group - compensating for no magic with firepower, lots of it! (A little joke I coined.)
Although, I actually have to admit, I'm not sure if my characters are really important now, but I'll keep them.
-
Once The storm stops.. you can go back to Shaggy's house to grab the ammo. Scooby Dixie, and a bunch of the others including Velma Sara and Brooklyn will be headed into the nearby town..
-
I think during that time, I'll also have the Pelvandia group head to the gun store in the previous RP.
I may also have Dr. Kerzach and Deimos head into town (they already have their armor and weapons with them).
-
Thats Fine. Some will stay at the hotel to search it, the others will search the town..
-
My characters are low powered but they were designed that way. The only distance weapon any of them has are low powered. The most powerful is Odysseus's desert eagle. The Tourist uses feather shurikens like Gatchaman 2nd in command uses (pick a name he has many) uses. The Green Ghost uses some feathers made of digimatter fashioned after hawkmon's feather, which is pretty low powered. I can't imagine any of them doing much damage. For Melee weapons there's only Galatine that Odysseus has, everyone else has fists, and The Green Shadow's gloves that have stuff like a modern stun gun in them, not powerful at all. They are all low powered.
-
welll, there's no need for high powered weapons at the moment Kor, so your characters are fine..
-
Maybe, though there's not a lot they can do in or out of combat. And in combat they are pretty useless and unable to do much of anything. In and out of combat they are pretty useless, unless folks need a lift somewhere in the tardis or want to visit the digital world. & what immortals, I don't have any. The closest is a mortal who can't die and doesn't age, and a human size dragon who doesn't age. Those are not immortals.
-
Yes, those are immortals, Kor, if you can't die, then you are not mortal. Mortality means you die at some point, Oddyseus and Sara can't. brooklyn could if he's harmed in stone sleep, but he;s pretty tough as well.
-
Sara can be, a shot through the head, stab in the heart, ect can kill her. She just can't die of old age is all.
& odysseus can't be killed and doesn't age. he heals at the same rate as Velma and has the same resistance to disease she does, not really an immortal.
-
if he can't die, that makes him immortal.. so he can get sick.. that doesn't make him mortal..
-
Not in my rule book. In mine they are both still mortals.
-
Fine.. you can call them mortal if you insist.. so this will simply be the 4th mortal dragoness Tarrax has either mated with or had a relationship with.
-
One of them is a cursed human mortal who can't die and doesn't age, the other is a human size dragon mortal whose type of dragon doesn't age and can't catch a disease. No idea about what her healing rate is.
Not much alien tech besides the tardis. Which is not used much. They don't really have any real power, apart from some having sensitive senses and such like that. Not very useful in or out of combat, and only 1 can do much in combat & he can't do to much besides hack and shoot.
-
well, at least introduce her to Tarrax :) Get her into a comfort zone..
-
NOt sure if he'd be interested since she's not a true immortal like the various pantheon gods are apart from the viking gods.
-
Shooting and sword fighting will be handy skills later in the RP.
If it's any consolation, that's all my characters are capable of too.
And later on, we'll see if the two can be introduced to either spells or firearms.
This is all your choice; I am just tossing ideas out there.
-
Well, tarrax did come all this way to see her, remember he hasn't been with any females for many thousands of years.. He';s already traveled to see her, now Sara has to show him why she'd make a good date..
-
Her vast fortune I guess. The fortune her family and she had before she met the Tourist, and after the became friends she got even a larger fortune.
-
Thats a start.. now start typing :)
-
& her family being on the council, and I guess her, and her being the friend of an adopted son of the emperor & the imperial family physician & one of his advisors. That is the only thing I can think that he find a reason to date her. Her grandparents maybe being among his personal advisers.
-
That.. and he finds her interesting.. :)
-
Just cause of she has the dragon equivalent of huge breasts?
-
No, physical features do not interest him, very much. they might have, when he was very young, but he's long past that.. He's interested in her intellect, her social status, that sort of stuff.
-
How big her hoard is.
-
No, he's already wealthy himself. He's initerested in her for personall reasons, he's a mature draagon, who's loooking for a companion.. and Sara's going to be the lucky gal.
-
You mean if she seduces or bribes him.
Maybe I need to bring in more useful characters like the 1940's superman, or the justice society.
Since the ones I've been using in this rp are useless out of combat and only maybe 2 of then can do anything in combat. The rest will sit and cheer them on, while eating popcorn. No distance attacks but 1 desert eagle. only 1 sword for melee combat, and brooklyn's teeth. and none of them of any real use outside combat but colorful adds to the atmosphere & background occasional joke.
-
You're just being silly now Kor :slap Get ahold of yourself..Sara has no reason to bribe or SEduce Tarrax, he's interested in her. Isn't she interested in him? Shouldn't "personal interest" be ebnough of a reason? And as for the Touriust, he's the freaking doctor to the Emperor of Sara's homeworld, so he's good for healing wounds, bandaging cuts and settuing broken bones... at a minimum..
-
Not to mention his being the adopted son of the emperor, with an option later to make it not just adopted. Though that is likely a stupid idea so I'll take it out.
Likely using his 1940's black bag, and the imperial one he can use while there, but won't take off of that homeworld.
Not to useful really. None of them are outside combat, and only 2 are in combat.
-
No, keep trhat idea, we may use it in future rps.. :) Anything's fair game in this mythology..
-
If you are sure, I'm not sure about it.
-
Come on, this is a place to goof off and experiment.. :) I hope Sam/Ian likes Jules Verne..
-
Ian would, I'm not even sure if Sam can read, and anyway if they are back in the human form she may have gone to asleep again.
& what experiment ? I don't know what you mean.
-
By experiment I mean you can tweak your character, for example you could have sara being an accomplished pianist, if you so desire. You could have Brooklyn like baseball, things like that..
-
I'm still have no idea what you mean, sorry.
-
Create new interests for them, like Velma might like Chinese food, or sushi. Oddyseus could like watching Tv.. etc etc..
-
Can Velma eat much with Shaggy and Scooby eating all the food?
-
She eats more moderately than them, they pig out, I often have Dixie wonder how they're not the size of a blimp... :)
-
Maybe they swallowed bottomless portable holes.
-
Nick, I had Deimos ask Stripetail about learning magic. This is only a story point and I do not wish for my characters to become mages.
Could you have Stripetail give Deimos a justified refusal?
-
One possible reason is learning a spell takes time. Like The Tourist After a decade or 2 of study he's still pretty feeble at dragon magic, not even up to apprentice level yet. Though he is not going to one of the academies on Korodos to study magic and his part time tutor is Sara who may not be really qualified from some folks viewpoints who are ancient.
Logically the spells the others can cast should be limited to only certain spells and also logically they should be inflexable. If they can do a fireball they are always the same. A full mage can do a custom one for the situation. Or a light spell. They can't custom it, it's either on or off. They should't be able to reduce it like Sara can a light spell and reduce the area that is lit and switch the ongoing spell so it now focus forward like a flaashlight, change it's color, switch it to only infrared light if most have infrared vision or goggles, have it flash in certain colors as a signal, ect. Like one can't do custom bullets to say delay to explode. One that can move to the left as a foe dodges to the left, switch target if you decide to hit another target, ect. Though the plus is a spell from an item does not tire the mage any, if spells do tire mages, and lets them focus on a spell needed for the moment.
Though that is up to the gm and how magic works, just my insight on how things work when I use to write fantasy.
-
Well, I had him consider buying armor-piercing rounds, and explained that you really have to be born with magical abilities, or failing that, be given magical items.
-
Even though it's not come out in conversation the reason that after a few centuries Sara isn't to good and the Tourist is pretty laughable as mages is they are not really studying spells but the physics, theory, cosmology and mathematics of magic. (at least how I see it) so they'll take way way way longer to get to where a typical human mage is after a few decades but they'll be supremely flexible and be able to do a do a tailor spell for any situation, in theory. One can go the faster route, in the universes I've made, and learn just spells, that is ok and be a skilled mage, but one won't have the deeper skill as if you took the route Sara and the Tourist are taking, but a human can't afford to do that. Someone who doesn't age like Sara's type of dragon, and someone very long lived like the tourist (who drinks a certain elixir as mentioned in his background) can take the route.
-
That a very good explanation Kor, and very well thought out..
-
Can the battle in the kitchen be heard anywhere in the hotel?
-
It's not that loud as most of characters are fighting with things like shovels, knives, sticks, spears and kitchen utensils.
However, Dr. Zanasiu's pistol might be able to be heard through the hotel, however faintly.
And where exactly is Mikoto?
I assume Briggins is in Room 300 after Deimos bought him there to try and convince him that Mikoto is real and not a figment of Deimos's imagination.
-
I see, so no one outside the kitchen would hear it, like those in the other room where my characters are? ok. I was just curious. Thanks.
-
It would be heard in the dining room and Dr. Zanasiu uses a non suppressed pistol so the gunfire could be heard through the hotel, but it would probably be very faint.
But I'd imagine that the fight would still be audible in the nearby area (possibly in the lobby) but not on the other floors.
-
ok, thanks.
-
I've been wondering where Drake is exactly.. Last time we saw Mikoto, the group was taking him captive..
-
I wonder also. Has he been gone this long before? About 4 days I think.
-
the last time, he was unable to access his computer for a couple days.. Maybe its the case here too..
-
I forgot about that. It may be that indeed.
-
Well, I'm back. I was considering quiting the RP after my massive screw up before, but it seems I can't just run off so easily. I don't think I'll be posting as much as I was before though, cause I want make so time for activity on other sites and maybe do more writing then just one new chapter every month or so.
-
Well its good to have you back Drake..We missed you.. :)
-
Meh, what'd you miss me for?
-
I understand Drake. heres a summary of what you've missed. We've added a few pages, so you'll have to read through them all. Spyro's stil sleeping upstairs and Cynder is with him. Mikoto, well, the last we saw, the Pelvanida guys were taking him nto custody. we'll have him be in his room, for the time being..
-
Because friends miss each other Drake. Now log in so we can see your name :)
-
Welcome back Drake!
Also, the Pelvanida group is dispersed. Deimos is trying to find Mikoto and show him to Briggins to prove his sanity.
Rime and Zachary are guarding Spyro.
Dr. Kerzach, Strut, Dr. Zanasiu, Ms. Swimmer and Mr. Bigmouth are fighting off spirit minion chefs in the kitchen.
-
Tsukasa and Yuusuke have moved back into the photo studio. Tsukasa wants to leave because he thinks they already did what they were supposed to do in that world and he wants to get out of working at the hotel. Yuusuke's trying to convince him to stay. I'm not sure where Mikoto's disappeared to.
-
For simplicity's sake we'll just say he's in his room..
-
Actually, could we just say the Pelvanida group locked Mikoto in a closet somewhere in the lobby? Because when Mikoto was last present, he was being bound by the Pelvanida group.
-
Actually that would work, although they did leave him some food and water..
-
Sounds like a good idea.
-
Better then saying he slipped out to have a little coffee.
-
Well, We'll have them bring him out to see Briggins and look at Spyro's side-once he comes downstairs..
-
Have Mikoto look at Spyro's side? Up to you.
-
Well, spyro will have it bandaged of course, and it will show, or is supposed to show, Mikoto how much harm he has done..
-
Sure he just won't laugh with a typical evil laugh?
-
Thats up to Drake.. he very well might..
-
So long as he's still got that half of Dezumozorlya in him and he's unaware of it controlling his actions, he won't show any repentance. If he were too find out about it though, he'd more then likely start questioning his actions.
Oh, and where's this fight taking place? Tsukasa and Yuusuke are heading back to the hotel and I was wondering if they would hear it from the lobby and what do the minions look like?
-
the fight is happening in the kitchen..and the minions are spirits that look like cooks complete with cleaver, knives and pans..
-
I just had Guilmon say that since if at least some of season 1 happened I assume the season 1 digimon would be legends other digimon may talk about.
-
I'm going to have the Pelvanida group encounter some of the rogue mages (they will be tougher than Haresh). This is after the town scene and this will be a at night.
I want the Pelvanida group to take them out. You can have Stripetail scold them for what they did after they kill the mages. Don't worry, they only encountered a few of them.
-
Alright, but Stripetail will give Kerzach a magical shield which will help protect them from the mages attacks..
-
Actually the battle will be at night and only occurs because Dr. Kerzach, Deimos, Zachary and Strut go into the kitchen to have a bite to eat and get caught by the mages.
-
ok, so this will be very late at night, when everyone else is sleeping?
-
Yes. I wanted to give the Pelvanida group an intense challenge (almost like Mikoto but not as overpowered).
For this, I'd assume that the spells the mages use are all combat related (elemental blasts) and LOS (line of sight - if they can't see you, they can't send a fireball at you, however, then can throw them like grenades.)
The Pelvanida group will have to rely on firepower and use of the environment to their advantage.
-
that sounds reasonable..
-
Oh on a side note, what about The Tourist's "after battle" examination that the characters are undergoing?
And for now, Dr. Kerzach will be the only one with an enchanted weapon. I guess that's appropriate for a Badass Normal (he can only stab and slash with it; he can't use it to send a bolt of fire at his enemies.)
-
You can have that happen too, just to be on the safe side..
-
You need more information about the examination? He's mainly using his wrap around glasses, they are a multi sensory thing, sorta like the tricorder and medical tricorder, if you've seen star trek, with a few other functions, light intensification, infrared, built in polarization. I assumed they would be ok and would not be to powerful or god moding.
What sorts of results would you want the examination to reveal? or do you have something you'd want to say about the process?
-
Well it could reveal that a few of Rime's ribs are broken and that Mr. Bigmouth or Ms. Swimmer was stabbed and they have suffered some bruising and that Strut has some bruises.
-
Ok, so they hane injuries and making the battle against the mages more difficult..
-
Actually, all but 1 of the combatants are uninjured.
-
ok, just to be clear...
-
What sorts of treatment would you want them to have?
Just a bit to help with their pain, some minor healing ect?
-
I guess minor healing and pain relief. Not much you can do with broken ribs.
-
with broken ribs all you can do is wrap the area in padding and let the bone heal itself. that can take weeks deoending on how badly broken the ribs are..
-
True, using technology, though high tech could speed it up a bit and in theory magic could knit bone together, maybe best to not do that in this case.
Hopefully what I posted is ok and what you both were looking and going for.
-
yeah, it works...
-
Good, I was hoping what I was doing wasn't powergaming or god modding or whatever the term is.
-
the term is god-modding...
-
I see. I keep forgetting that. Maybe I wouldn't if I were a bit smarter.
-
Its not a big deal Kor. Everyone forgets things from time to time..
-
Maybe. But everyone is way smarter then I am, that is ok though.
-
Alright, lets make a list of who's seeing what movie.
Phantom Of the OPera- Tarrax, SAra, Spyro, Cynder, Dixie and Scooby
Airplane! Bulk Skull, B.G
-
I'll put up the list of aliases for my characters:
Deimos = Acheron
Dr. James Zanasiu = Timothy Johnson
Dr. Yuri Kerzach = Mark Hathaway
Strut = Altus
Rime = Don
Zachary = Ian Holmes
-
Phantom of the Opera - Sara, Moran (sitting away from where the couples are to give them space (relative privacy) and so he can study the move, watch it and compare it to the silent version with Lon Chaney Sr that he saw in the theaters when it was first out).
Caddyshack - Jason Laris (the Tourist) & Guilmon, Odysseus, Brooklyn, Ian,
Airplane - Velma
-
Airplane -Veemon
Phantom-Agumon, Agumina, Tai , Tiger, Tigress, Genki-not with couples
-
I'm going to have the 2 searchers in the hotel encounter and kill a mage. The multiple battle against some other mages will still occur.
-
thats fine... are you going to have your bounty hunters attack aas well?
-
The bounty hunters will attack later as not everyone they're after is present. They'll attack after the large battle in the kitchen.
-
Thanks for the heads up..
-
I'll let other people take control some of the mages. The kitchen battle is roughly 1:1 ratio with 1 extra on the mage's side. I might have Haresh join in (can't use magic due to "magic lock").
But note, that only all my characters are fighting as everyone else is asleep.
I'll control 3 of the mages (Persian Cat; Monitor Lizard; black haired pale man with gold eyes.)
So far these are the combatants:
Dr. Zanasiu
Dr. Kerzach
Zachary
Deimos
Rime
Mr. Bigmouth
Ms. Swimmer
Haresh
-
INteresting.. looking forward to it..
-
not sure what is going on so I'll pretend I do till I do.
-
SErris characters will be fighting against some of Chong's mages. Most of the other characters will be asleep..
-
I'm not sure if you want to have your characters notice the huge ruckus caused by what is essentially an 17 person gun battle that covers the entire lobby.
-
based on where my characters are it's very unlikely. Unless Terry hear's it he's in the dining room, no idea how farthat is. & he's not of much use in a fight really.
-
Our characteers will be sleeping upstairs so its unlikely, unless the sounds are really loud..
-
all of our characters? ok.. I guess terry is alseep upstairs then, for some reason. I've no idea why heh would be in teh afternoon.
-
We've moved it ahead so its nighttime. its 8 p.m right now..
-
Really, that was fast, no one told me.
-
Well, the movie was nearly 3 hours then they went to the library to search for info.
-
I'm still confused. maybe best to leave my char out of the rest of the rp till I'm not confused.
-
No No don't that.. just go with the flow. everyone's headed back to the hotel, feeling satisfied after watching a movie and getting lots of information...
-
I'm still confused.
-
Ok, so most of the characters are asleep. those that aren't:
_The Pelvanida group
Agumon'
Agumina
Tiger
Tigeress
Dixie
Cynder
Sara.
ms Swimmer
The Tourist and his friends
Terry and Hawkmon
Tarrax
Tai
B>g
-
The Pelvanida Group is asleep.
The 3 Lipizzaner stallions are also asleep. As for what role they'll play, they'll mostly be background but they may play some combat roles (I haven't decided how they'll enter combat as they are essentially ballet dancers.)
-
so they're frienmds of Zachary's? Alright then.. :)
-
Maybe they are not skilled in combat, but I imagine being kicked in the shin by someone wearing metal horseshoes and with the strength of an anthro horse would still hurt and I imagine an anthro horse could punch pretty hard also.
-
The Pelvanida Group's battle against the mages is currently starting.
Note that this battle is between the Pelvanida Group and the mages and I'm not sure if I want any magical characters involved.
I am allowing anyone to take some of the mages. There are an equal number to the Pelvanida Group along with 1 or 2 more.
-
well, I'll take a couple of the characters. I'll take the monitor lizard... and mycharacters are all asleep, save for Dixie..
-
There are a total of 11 enemy mages.
Mages taken:
Persian Cat (head mage) - Serris
Percheron - Serris
Dhole - Serris
Monitor Lizard - Nick
Coyote - Nick
-
I'll take another one. Can you list the other 9?
-
As usual, I'm a little lost in the RP's.. Nick's briefing me on them again and I'm playing to the best of my abilities here with my return.
So bear with me if my part seems inconsistent with the stories
-
You can be chong... I've been playing him up to now, but he's your character after all..
-
List of mages:
A Scotsman with gold eyes
An anthro Percheron draft Horse (male)
A Chinese man with grey eyes
An anthro Dhole (male)
An Arabic man
An anthro Ostrich (female)
A Russian man with brown eyes
An Indian man
An anthro Coyote (female)
--------------------
I'll take the Percheron draft horse and the Dhole.
-
I'll play the female Coyote...
-
The Coyote turned and gesturing stioopped the theconcrete, and ran Dr. Kerzach through with the sword. The Cyote smiled evilly as the Doctor stiffened, and the coat he was wearing began to redden with blood. she pulled the sword out, with was now stained with blood, and watched the DR. collapse in a heap before her. "I suggest you tend to your friend she said turning and heading downstairs, with her trident slung over her shoulder. "He doesnm't have long..'
Nick, I'd like to point out that you were autohitting in that post (and in several other posts before that occasionally). And another thing I'd like to point out is that the Pelvanida group labcoat is impervious to edged weapons, fire and chemicals (including acid). This established in the Insane Cafe 2.
-
Alright I'll edit it.. Sorry about that.
It would make sense however, that at least a few of your characters get seriously banged up in this battle, after all they're fighting powerful mages.. it wouldn't make much sense to have them all survive without a stratch..
-
Can anyone else hear all this noise?
-
the mages cast a silence spell to block out the noise.. otherwise the entire hotel would be woken up from the noise...
-
including the explosion.
-
The magic has its limits, if the explosion is big enough it will be heard..
-
Maybe
-
It will, if it comes to that..
-
Okay since the explosives went off and killed the Coyote mage and woke everyone up, how shall we do this?
I'd assume Haresh and Ms. Swimmer's barrage of heavy objects coupled with Deimos and Rime's sniper fire would have killed or injured several mages in the group.
-
Most of the mages will be killed or injured. the Lizaerd the Persian, and the Arab will be unhurt, the others will be dead..
-
What should we do now that most (if not all) the characters are asleep?
-
the bad guys may try poison gas. Unless they know which rooms their victims are in.
-
Well, I;'m waiting dfor Drake to post, then after that we'lkl mpove forward to the nexxt morning..
-
Ok, just a rrecap. there will be invasion occuring in two weeks time. the next week or so will focus on :
1: Completing the challenge between The boys (Scooby and Spyro) and the Girls (Cynder and dixie)
2: the search for the owner's treasure begins in earnest- this will iinvolve pretty much everyone who wants to search..
3. The Pelvanida folks will beginning fortifying the hotel and the surrounding area..
-
How about shape earth to add to the toughness of hte hotel. Making the materials the hotel is made of as tough as some very high tech composite steel (magic can do that).
maybe Terry going to visit the extreme dinosaurs to get some stuff or ask if they want to come over & fight, ect.
-
Thats a possibility.. I'm trying to get dRake to post more frequently in the thread, but he's been busy..
-
Guess we have to post less then he can post a lot.
-
Yes, so he can catch up.. i'm trying to keep him in this rp.. he takes a couples day off and we add 5 pages :) We need to allow him tiime to catch up and keep up.. :)
-
I'm no longer interested in continuing on with the RP. Nick can take over playing as Spyro and Cynder. My other characters are unimportant enough to just let them fade away.
Drake out.
-
Why have you lost interest Drake?
-
Very wel;l Drake. I'll take over playing them.. Thank you for your partici[ation. You are a very good roleplayer, and the roleplay is better for you in participating it.. I only want to know why.. I know you've been losing interest in forum at large...
-
Maybe he's burning out and needs a break or is maybe just burning out.
-
That's more or less the reason, Kor. I can no longer keep up with the RP and it's starting to feel more like a chore than a game.
-
thats understandable. you have a lot of demands on your time.. just take a break, do things you want to do, vacation, do whatever you like to do. then after awhile come back. burnout isn't undone over night. it takes time to restore interest and passion...just remember Drake the door is always open. if you ever decide to rp with us again.. you will be welcomed back with open arms..
-
Yes, take a break. It may be a short or long break but it's better then forcing yourself to continue.
-
We may be getting some new Rpers soon. Darkwolf has shown interest in jhoining the roleplay..
-
No idea who that is, but sounds interesting.
& what is canon for the scooby doo characters, only the original Scooby Doo Where Are You Series? In case you don't remember it here are some intros.
Original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgcadrlp6ZA (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgcadrlp6ZA)
Season 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_VVpaCKiKE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_VVpaCKiKE)
-
Canon is pretty all the series over its 40 year run. Dixie is from the New Scooby Doo mysteries (83-85)...
-
Ok I wasn't sure. Means Velma will give an odd reply then.
-
the main point is, we bring Daphne and fRed in.. and your post was a nice touch..
-
I don't know how she'd get in contact with the blue falcon and dinomutt, the harlem globetrotters, batman & robin, speed buggy, Jeannie, nor josey & the pussycats, that is if they are back on earth and not still lost in space.
-
well, those characters are for the most part off doinmg thier own things...
-
Who knows in what universe.
I guess the dark person wants to play freddy and daphne then?
-
I'll give her the option of playing them..if she wants to play them..
-
I forgot to add a profile for the 3 Lipizzaner ballet dancers:
Franz Grun:
Bio: The self described "hothead" and "joker" of the group. Although he is not truly speciest, he is sometimes insensitive to the feelings of others. This combined with his distinct sense of humor has gotten him into trouble with the other dancers, in particular Hans. He is from Salzburg.
Abilities: Much stronger than a Human (about 6x peak Human). Very acute eyesight and hearing. Very agile and flexible.
Werner Hachmann:
Bio: One of the newest members of the Dance School, he is also described as one of the most obnoxious. Of course this may have to do with the fact that his father and grandfather were both very famous dancers. He was born in Vienna and lived there for all of his life.
Abilities: Much stronger than a Human (about 6x peak Human). Very acute eyesight and hearing. Very agile and flexible.
Hans Neitmeyer-
Bio: One of the oldest and most respected dancers at the Spanish Dance School, he rose from humble beginnings as a Bavarian farmer. He helped break down species and locational barriers for the Spanish Dance School as he was the first non Austrian accepted.
Abilities: Much stronger than a Human (about 6x peak Human). Very acute eyesight and hearing. Very agile and flexible.
-
For the recruitment seeking, how many towns are around the hotel?
I threw out some town names:
Shore Point
Harlan Beach
Arkan
Cobia Bay
Bluefin Point
-
We never made that clear.. Surf Point i believe was the closest...
-
Hmm. You could have Briggins say that the other towns are too far to reach.
-
I might have him do that..
-
With that many there's likely no need for my chars much, especially since they are not really combatants, except for 1, maybe 2.
-
rest assured there will be plentybof need for your characters, indeed, every character will be needed.. in fact, your characters will lead some of those people..
-
I doubt that. Only 1 has been a leader.
-
that is going to change.. for now.. we're goimnng to have most of the group begin exploring after lunch is over..
-
I'm adding a character to this RP.
An eccentric sorcerer named Taranis. He will be almost normal... except that he has no sense of proportion, and often uses the wrong spell for a desired effect.
Species: Human
Age: Looks about 50, but is older than time itself, or so he says.
Height: About six feet
Hair: None (lost it all in a bizaare accident)
Clothing: Blue robes, boots, shirt, pants.
Eye color: Blue.
Other distinguishing marks: Glowing magical runes cut into his skin.
Spells: Teleportation, lighting, fireballs, telekinesis, can change creatures form into other creature, but cannot change his own.
-
What is his species, and how old is he?
-
I will have him teleport into the front of the hotel.
-
tHats fine, but you have to explain, where he's from, what his specis is, stuff like that.. it adds depth to your character..
-
I added that in my previous post. I edited it in.
-
Alright.. its a start, now lets see how he interacts with the other characters..
-
He's there. Teleported in, and will talk to any character he sees.
-
Well, We'll have him see Briggins to check out a room, then he can hop in the dining room, and grab some lunch..
-
Okay, no problem.
-
And one more thing. Try and post at least a paragraph of content./..
-
Oh. Ok. All subsequent posts will be a paragraph.
-
Have Him WALK to places.. describe what he sees. the cobwebsin the corners.. the stains on the walls.. the mold in the bathrooms. that kind of detail...
-
Ok. Sure. If you want.
-
Noname, I expect the rpers I roleplay with to have a certain level of skill. that is to be able to post consistently posts of at least a paragraph in length and showing creatibvity to those posts.. Descrobing thier surroundings, conversing with other characters, showing off thier skills, and the limits of thier abilities as well.. yes pretty much everything goes.. but there has to be a point and purpose to what you are posting.. it has to advance the plot somehow..
-
Okay. Sure. I will make it longer and more detailed.
-
Although I will say, his wackiness does remind me of the zaniness of the original Cafe..
-
lol. I guess that is good. So far, he spends a lot of time arguing with the narrator, and ignores the fourth wall. I will make him show up to interact with other characters when there is a good opportunity.
-
Actually, I've seen the original Insane Cafe and I have to admit Insane Cafe 2,3 and probably 4 are more "mature"/serious and darker as well as more plot driven.
Actually, I'd say 3 is the most "mature",dark and serious of the trilogy (soon to be tetralogy).
One question, is the Insane Cafe 4 going to be "mature" and serious like this one or will be more light hearted?
---------------
Also, can I do the jailbreak for Chong and the Dragonstorm scientists later on?
-
Certainly, you can bring have it a little later, and honestly as to 4, I'll try and do a combination. plot-0driven, but more light heartened. most of my characters will have established thier relationbships by then, and can afford to relax a little.. I'm not sure whether to have the plot set in Spyro and Cynder's world, the digital world, or somewhere else..anbd I haven't even settled on the name for #4 yet.. I'm open to suggestion on that..
-
the digital would could be interesting, or spyro and cyder's world. If you can't decide you can try to have 2 spin offs with some chars going to each maybe. They can be set to happen at the same time, or 1 before the other. If they go to Spyro and Cynder's world you may have to run both of their characters. Or do the digital world and come to Spyro and Cynder later, if someone else wants to run one of them or if the original person who ran them or one of them may return by then.
I guess Odysseus's sword doesn't look like it'll fit in the hook place?
-
You can place it on the hook. the runes didn't mebntion specific swords...and I'm going to pick between one of them, after the story is finished..
-
Hmm. Will Chong reappear in the 4th one? Also if the RP is in the digital world or the Spyro-verse...the Pelvanida group is probably not going to work well there.
-
I'll make a way for them to appear.. wherever i Set the rp.. I can promise you that..
-
If it si the digital world if any of the series are canon some baddie may be thinking that since non digimon help the digimon defeat the past baddies a digimon baddie may think they should hire some baddies who are non digimon.
Or if it is set in teh sypro cynder world the baddies can see the newcomers are from a certain world/universe and decide they should summon & hire some themselves from that same universe/world.
-
I'm going to start the jailbreak for Chong and the Dragonstorm scientists. It won't actually be fully done yet but the first steps will start.
-
Sounds good Serris.. and I like your ideas Kor..
-
which ones?
-
The hiring the nondigimon bad guys..
-
"While I would normally sgree with you captain, we are vastly outnumbered, so we have to narrow that gap in someway.. these men are ruthless, they would not hesistate to use such devieces were the situations reversed..
I assume that this is Mitch and not Shaggy or Stripetail talking?
-
It can work. & makes sense to me.
-
Yes that was mitch.. forgot to put down that it was him..
-
Also, I am going to insert a really nasty surprise for our heroes in that passageway.
The warlock Orsillus is mentioned very early in the RP, there is no reason why his minions couldn't be in that passage and I can see why they might attack our heroes. They'll be a LOT easier than Chong's mages (still decently tough) and there will be about 6-8 of them.
-
guess I have to decide which of my chars will be in that group. Not Velma, she's likley still helping carrying Daphne and fredy's luggage.
-
Velma is still downstairs.. as aree Bulk and Skull, and B>G.
-
Likely heading to or in Daphne or Fredy's rooms. I guess that may leave Jason, Guilmon and Brooklyn. Some of the others may remain in the lobby or other the dining room in case something happens there.
-
That is ultimately up to you.. Whatever characters you bring in, I'lll work with..
-
JUst an FYI: I will be out of town this weekend for my brother graduation from Standford. I'll be back late on Sunday. See you guys then!
-
So should the rp be on hold till you get back?
-
You guys can continue it if you want.. or we can put it on hold. Which do you prefer Kor?
-
I would guess we could continue, just within certain limits perhaps, since the gm won't be here.
-
I'm back so we can continue.. :)
-
I'll toss in 2 (possibly 3) FCs for sheer randomness (Consider them like Tiger, Tigress and Tai anyone can have them):
Dirk Pitt + Al Giordino
Kurt Austin + Jose Zavala
Clive Cussler (Author of the two novel series in which Pitt and Austin appear.
Pitt + Giordino and Austin + Zavala are definitely in but Cussler is a question mark.
-
A little background on them please.. They sound like interesting characters..
-

---------------------------------
Seems a little odd (possibly even tasteless or skirting the bounds of the law) to insert a real person into an RP but it might be interesting to see the novelist interact with the characters he's created.
-
Its not illegal. hUnter S Thompson did it a lot its called Gonzo journalism.. its where you insert yourself or a real person into the story..
-
It happened quite often in the fantastic four comic book series. & I recall reading an issue of the flash where it happened also.
-
Kor is right, so go ahead and use them..
-
We're gonna need Anton and Paul to lead the group to the minotaur.. the group will consist of just about everyone..including Jason, Sara, Brooklyn, and Terry..
-
Dr. Zanasiu as he's sleeping off the effects of the trap. Erm, I though he had the final fragment?
-
Ok, I'll go and change the post that says they have all 3..
-
Reading Skull's dialog and what he did gave me a funny image. Imagine what Bulk and Skull would be like as mages or wizards. Or anything else for that matter, real super heroes, if they had morphers, ect. :lol
-
Yeah, they'd look goffy, sure enough.. they're comic relief, they're supposed to be goofy..
-
very true.
-
lets start working the other couple groups over to where Brooklyn, Sara Moran and Jason are..
-
They could always punch, chop, ect, through walls to get to them. :p
-
I don't think Briggins would like having a huge cleanup bill from that :DD
-
I can guess not. :lol
-
I'm going to start the prison break for Chong very soon. I'll put in the next few posts. I'll just have the rogue Pelvanida scientists do the breakout then transport him to Pelvanida.
-
Alright, and Sharp will be posting again in the next couple days, and Drake is onboard for Insane Cafe 4..
-
I will be onboard for Insane Cafe 4 as well (if I can find the time).
-
we'll try to work at a slower pace for the next one, we started off at a really rapid pace on this one..
-
My participation in the fourth one will all be based on whether I can keep up with it. I've got work and a group on fanfiction.net that I'm busy with.
-
understood dRake, we all have demands on our time..
-
Thought It would not be to bad to mention a char from a mystery series I use to read/listen to. Jim Qwilleran is from The Cat Who Series, in case anyone ( I doubt anyone is interested) is curious.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cat_Who (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cat_Who)
-
when did that sreries air Kor? I'm not familiar with it, but it looks inrteresting
-
It's a book series. Done by Lilian Jackson Braun. It can be said to be in 2 eras. There is the 1 where Jim is working for a news paper in a large town. She wrote 3 books then quit for some reason for almost 20 years. 1-3 came out over 1966-68, book 4 came out in 1986 & she's been doing 1 book a year, more or less, since 86. It's up to 34, but I've only read/listened to up through book 24.
-
sio what is the series about?
-
Jim (I won't try to spell his last name, I'd have to copy paste it) and his 2 cats. Though he doesn't get his 2nd cat till book 2 or 3. Jim starts out working for a newspaper in a large city, having been a alcoholic for years and luckily when he now wants to straighten out his life a friend of his is an editor for a newspaper in the large town. He solves murders, mostly it's his cat koko who gives him clues and most of the time he's as much of a dunce at missing them as Jimmy and Lois are at not noticing that clark looks exactly like superman except he has on glasses. It seems koko is a very smart cat and a bit psychic maybe, with Jim having bits now and then, supposedly all tied to his mustache, or koko having more whiskers then normal cats.
He does eventually piece the clues together. Often the books have odd background characters. & once Jim moves up north in the 5th book then often keep the same odd background characters instead of having new ones with every book.
So I thought why not mention them.
No non humans in the book, unlike Anonymous Rex and the prequel I've not read.
-
Oh so its kinda likle cased Closed where no one knows that Conan is really Jimmy even through it is obvious that he is.. Jimmy solves murders, usually, and is a great admirer of Sherlock Holmes..
-
Maybe, I've not heard of that. I like the books since they do have some comedy in them, or at least to me.
-
you can find clips of cased closed on Youtube probably.. its a good show, from the episodes I watched..
-
Ok. Though Jim isn't to dense. He does eventually start noticing clues on his own.
-
one would hope so, after all he's the one getting the glory for solving those cases, even though his cats do all the work..
-
Koko often does.
I saw a bit of the Case closed thing. The guy reminds me of a char from a book series I read decades ago, Encyclopedia Brown. & the girl seemed a bit like his friend and partner, Don't recall what her name was. Though Encyclopedia Brown's female friend & partner is much nicer then the girl in the case closed is, except to Bugs Meany.
-
Sally I think he name was. And I read a bunch of those books growing up. Bugs always tried to get even with Leroy)his real name) for busting up his scams, and never managed to do it..there is a thing called photographic memory, leroy had it..
-
He'd never touch Encyclopedia brown since Sally could punch him out I think. I doubted anyone ever heard of those books since they are pretty old.
-
No, I've read them, and theyt were quite opopular inb the 70s. Yeah Sally Kimball I think was her full name, shje was pretty much Leroy's girlfriend..
-
I really enjoyed the series. I may look it up again to read, someday.
-
Yes, It was a fun series, what 12 yeaar old boy wouldn'tr want to help out thier folks and solve cases?
-
Very true. I doubt they have the books in e-book format. Those take up less room then paper books.
-
I'm waiting for Sharp to post so I can bring Stripetail back into things..
-
Alright, the search for clues continues..
-
Alright I'm leaving on vacation tommorow, so I'm trying to get as much in tonight as possible. you can continue roleplaying if you guys want..
-
roleplaying what? my chars are in spots where they can't do anything without the gm, unless i rp the conversation terry and his friends are having, or show what some folks who have traveled with jason are doign like Mim and Hoopy.
-
Good point. I'll try and move it so you can converse with SErrris' characters
-
Who is he doing? I can always have them talk to Hoopy, if she happens to be near enough to where she hides her ring to hear it go off and such while she is visiting berry valley. I would guess she checks now and then to see if she got any messages.
-
he is playing the PEvanida group, right now, everyone is gathered together as a group..
-
I'll never be able to solve the riddles. Never could. Never will be able to. Their as much gibberish to me as math is.
-
So do you want me to put this on hold until I get back?
-
Maybe let some folks here decide if they want to rp their characters talking. The plot can't advance while you are gone, but no reason the other characters can't talk and such.
-
I have a computer so I should be able to be online frotime to time over the next week So We can Continue, if you want.
-
Sounds good to me.
-
we're making good progress. nice work everyone..
-
Thanks.
-
Darkwolf will be joining our rp soon..
-
Sounds good. Did Darkwolf say what chars, or is it better as a surprise?
-
Shes picked out a few: Daphne, Gabumon and biyomon.. I left it up to her whetther she'll bring more in..
-
Sounds like a nice mix of character types.
-
So, how far are we from reaching the minotaur?
-
not that far.. we're passt the midway point of the maze..
-
things are going well. nice work people.. :)
-
Thanks for the compliment. :yes
-
No Problem. Darkwolf says she will join whenever she can. and Aves will also contribute, but he requests that we slow down a little so he can keep up..
-
just 1 post per day per person then?
-
no, not THAT slow...
-
ok. Wasn't sure on the details of what you meant and assumed it was like happened in previous rp threads.
-
How fast/slow should we post, then?
-
well, a bit slower than we are now.. otherwise we'll add on 20 pages and aves will be completely lost..
-
Yes, even if he can speed read.
Maybe you can send him a brief summary with each new page.
-
i might just do thst..
-
Ok, just an FYi, The FriendlySharptooth will be having a character run a magical defense shop so that several of the characters can learn to defend themselve magically..
-
I want the Pelvanida group, the NUMA group and the Lipizzaner stallions to remain magicless but maybe for kicks they attempt it and the magic proves to be incompatible with them for whatever reason. I guess some comic relief could be handy (maybe the spells do weird things to them; like turn the Lipizzaner stallions' white fur into neon pink fur or maybe temporarily make Dirk Pitt bald or accidentally turn Deimos's rifle into a tree branch).
-
Yes Serris, the spells won't apply to your characters, as I know you prefer them to be magicless.. which they will remain. the spells are for my, Kors and the FRiendly Sharptooths characters..
-
Like warmth, coolness, missile shield, reverse missile?
-
those might be possibilities yes..send micheal-the friendly sharptooth a pm, and ask him to add those to his list of spells he'll use.. i'm sure there will be more..
-
I'll toss in ONE mage. She's my character from the 1999 fantasy RPG Darkstone.
Name: Setsuna
Gender: Female
Appearance: very, very pale skin (almost vampire like), black hair, amethyst eyes with vertical "cat's eyes" pupils. Wears a dark blue cape and a light blue tunic under it. She wears a metal helmet. She is armed with a bow and wears a rucksack on her back.
Spells/abilities known:
Offensive spells
Fear
Mana cost: high
Effect: Causes all enemies to run away from her. Magically shielded and mindless enemies (machines, some summoned creatures, etc) are unaffected. Enemies can fight their way past this spell and it wears off once they are roughly 100 or so meters away from her. This spell has a 360 degree area of attack but is non persistent. It affects at 10 meter radius.
Wall of Fire
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Places a wall of fire in front of her. The fire will not hurt her or her allies. It will not damage the surface it is placed on. The fire is magical and cannot be extinguished by normal means but it will burn out after 2 minutes. Fireproof objects or creatures are completely immune to the spell. Ordinary fireproof clothing provides protection from the heat and flames of the spell.
Stone
Mana Cost: high
Effect: Petrifies a target. She must be able to see the target in order to cast the spell but any allies in the line of fire are not affected. The petrification lasts only 5 seconds, after which, the target is completely unharmed. Magically shielded creatures and metal objects (including vehicles) cannot be petrified. The spell has a maximum range of 1.5 km.
Fireball
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Hurls a ball of fire at the target. This is a line of sight spell. This spell does not home in on enemies and it can be dodged. Though allies are not affected by the fireball or the "comets" produced by the detonation, it will detonate if it strikes an ally. The fireball cannot ignite fireproof creatures, however, the explosion may injure them. Fireproof clothing will prevent ignition (by the fireball or the "comets") but will not protect against the explosion. Against armored vehicles, the fireball will do little more than scorch paint and score armor plating. However, the fireball can ignite flammable objects. In addition, the fireball's explosion upon impact will spew smaller "comets" that will ignite nearby flammable objects. The fireball has a range of roughly 700 meters. It is blocked by any obstruction.
Storm
Mana cost: Medium
Effect: Pushes all objects away from her. Affects a 5 meter radius around her. Will not affect allies. She can only push objects that weigh up to 500 pounds. Anything heavier is unaffected.
Forgetfulness
Mana cost: High
Effect: Causes target to drop what they are doing and stand there thinking. She must be able to see the target to cast the spell but allies in the line of sight are unaffected. The spell lasts for 10 seconds.
Spark
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Surrounds her with a sphere of electricity temporarily then sends a stream of lightning towards the target. This spell is not a homing spell and can be dodged. This is a line of sight spell and allies, though not harmed by it, will block the spell. The sphere of electricity can electrocute nearby opponents but it lasts only 1 second. The spell will cause interference with nearby electrical devices. This spell cannot not harm lightning shielded enemies, vehicles or buildings. It is blocked by any obstruction. The lightning stream has a range of 300 meters.
Magic bomb
Mana cost: Medium
Effect: Places an explosive sphere of magic on the targeted area. She does not need to see the area to place the sphere and she can place multiple spheres. However, the spheres do emit light. The sphere will detonate if an enemy approaches it or 10 seconds have passed. If cast right on an enemy, it will immediately detonate. Magically shielded enemies are immune to the damage caused by the spell but they will be knocked around by the shockwave. Allies are not affected (either by the explosion or the magic shrapnel) nor will they detonate the sphere. The explosion hurls magic shrapnel in a roughly 8 foot radius. The shrapnel can can start fires as well as detonate other magic bombs. Against vehicles, it can seriously damage lightly armored vehicles but does not possess enough power to damage heavy vehicles. It can crater soft terrain and the explosion can start fires. The sphere can only be placed 2.5 km from her location.
Poison cloud
Mana cost: Medium
Effect: Produces a cloud of poison gas with 3 meter radius. It does not harm allies or herself. She can place this cloud anywhere, even if she cannot see it. It has a maximum range of 1 km. Poison immune enemies and enemies wearing chemical warfare suits are not affected. The poison rapidly corrodes most metals and plastics (Teflon, ceramics, glass and precious metals are unaffected) and causes severe burns upon skin contact. The cloud persists for only 2 seconds, after which it disperses and is harmless. Self contained breathing apparatus will mitigate some of the effects but the poison is also absorbed through the skin.
Death dome
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Produces a sphere of poison gas around her. It persists for 3 seconds, after which it disperses and is completely harmless. It does not affect poison immune enemies or enemies with chemical warfare suits. She cannot cast it on anyone else and her allies are immune to damage from this spell.
Confusion
Mana cost: Very high
Effect: Causes the targeted enemy to randomly attack nearby targets (allied or enemy). Magically shielded creatures, targets inside vehicles or buildings are immune. Mindless targets (machines and summoned creatures) are not affected. It wears off after 15 seconds. She must be able to see the target to target it but the spell disregards cover. It has a range of 600 meters and only one target can be confused at a time.
Other spells
Absorption
Mana cost: High
Effect: Any weapon that she enchants will steal life force from the enemy and heal the wielder of said weapon. It lasts for 60 seconds and she must hold the weapon to enchant it; however, the enchanted weapon can be passed off to someone else. Vehicle and building mounted weapons as well as crew served weapons cannot be enchanted. In addition, the enchanted weapons need to strike a living target to steal life force; no life force will be stolen if the weapons strike undead, vehicles, robots, buildings or anything that is not alive.
Haste
Mana cost: High
Effect: Significantly boosts her speed (allows her to run at freeway speeds <~65 mph>). Lasts for 15 seconds. Collision with objects will not hurt her or damage them (a shield is produced around herself that prevents that). However, she will immediately stop if she collides with something. She cannot cast this on her allies.
Invisibility
Mana cost: High
Effect: Renders her invisible to the naked eye. She will still show up on an infrared camera and beings that can see into the infrared range can still see her. Also, she is not invisible to radar or magical detectors. In addition, she can still be heard and her scent is not masked. Does not render her immune to harm. Lasts 20 seconds. Also, her allies can perceive her as a faint vapor. She cannot cast this on her allies.
Detect
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Allows her to see hidden traps. Lasts 5 seconds and all traps will be surrounded by a blue glow. It will also pinpoint magical items, which will glow orange. Only she can see the colors. Affects a 30 meter radius around her.
Food
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Summons a random piece of food (fruit or vegetable). Anyone else can eat it.
Telekinesis
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Allows her to manipulate or pull distant objects towards her. She must be able to see the object and the spell has a range of 200 meters. In addition, she can only manipulate objects weighing up to 25 pounds. Also, projectiles move too fast for this spell to stop or deflect.
Healing
Mana cost: Medium
Effect: Allows her to heal herself but she cannot cast it on others. She must be conscious to use this spell. She can instantly heal from moderate injuries (broken bones, small number of stab or gunshot wounds <no more than 3>, small 2nd and 3rd degree burns, embedded object, severe bleeding etc.) She can heal from very serious injuries (multiple stab or gunshot wounds <more than 3>, poisoning, severe burns <extensive 2nd or 3rd degree burns>, amputation etc.) but it takes a few days and she must continually cast the spell to do so.
Antidote
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Cures poison. She cannot cast it on others.
Berserker
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Makes her more resistant to damage, allows her to attack faster and gives her self healing. She cannot cast this on anyone else. Lasts 33 seconds.
Reflections
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Surrounds her with a swirling energy shield that reflects projectiles (magical and mundane) back to their shooter. The shield does not protect against close in attacks or the shockwave from nearby explosions. However, it will protect against shrapnel. Lasts 8 seconds. She cannot cast this on anyone else.
Magic door
Mana cost: Medium
Effect: Allows her to instantly create a portal to a "home base" that she designates. Anyone else can use the portal (even enemies). However, it will immediately collapse if she returns to home base, then back the place where she cast it.
Resurrection
Mana cost: Very high (on self), High (on others)
Effect: Immediately awakens and heals her (regardless of severity of wounds) if she becomes unconscious due to injuries sustained. She can cast it on her allies if they are seriously wounded and unconscious to revive them and immediately heal their wounds, no matter how severe. However, the targets must be alive for the spell to
work.
Light
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Produces a bright white light surrounding a 10 meter radius around her. The light is a cold light. It lasts 40 seconds. She cannot cast this on anyone else.
Light
Mana cost: Low
Effect: Produces a bright white light surrounding a 10 meter radius around her. The light is a cold light. It lasts 40 seconds. She cannot cast this on anyone else.
Abilities
Meditation
Effect: Increases her mana reserves for 30 seconds.
Lycanthropy
Effect: Turns her into a werewolf for 25 seconds. In this form, she cannot cast spells but she is extremely strong and can sustain very serious injuries without slowing down. Unfortunately, when she reverts, the injuries will carry over and she will need to use Healing or even Resurrection.
-------------------------
NOTE: I am implementing a mana meter for her. In the RP, it will act like energy (she'll get tired if she throws too many spells around and she needs to rest. In addition, if she's hungry or tired her mana reserves are lower.)
Also, she cannot learn any more new spells.
*NOTE: STill under construction.*
-
thats great Serris , looking forward to seeing her in action..
-
Sounds like it could be an interesting character.
-
I created Setsuna's spell and ability list; it is in her profile. Tell me if she is too overpowered.
She is intended to be one of the weaker mages in the RP but she seems pretty powerful to me.
-
the list is fine, and her power level is fine..
-
over the next ten pages or so, we';ll have the group find all the clues but the last one.. by that time there only be three days before the invasion is set to begin..
-
Sorry to have been absent for so long... I can't believe I'm STILL taking finals... my last one is on the 21st. After that, I should be more clear to participate.
-
thats alright, things happen..
-
I was wondering once the Insane Cafe is eventually rebuilt if you'd just do rp's in and around the insane cafe or if you'd also do the spin offs like this one that can take place in other locations including other worlds like Spyro's home world, the digital world, and other places since those could be 2 separate rp lines.
-
those ar re definitely possibilities, the trick is involving Serris and his characters..
-
What about them?
-
well, we need to have some way for them to get to, for example, spyro's world.. we'll see how things go.. good idea though kor..
-
Same as most of the others, being summoned. Simple for the digital world and others too.
-
good point, i'lltalk to serris and see how things go. i hope to have the 4th one up and running by my 27th birthday.
-
I could incorporate the Einstein-Rosen Bridge from the first Darwin's Soldiers.
It was destroyed in the first RP but it could have been rebuilt.
In fact, I will work that in right now.
-
No idea what the bridge is. They could be summoned to worlds that have magic. For places like the digital world they could be brought/taken there in a similar manner to how the human characters were in the first episode of season 1.
For info there is episode 1 on youtube. The first 5 minutes, or so, is all you need to see. It's at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTBR9TYy5EA (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTBR9TYy5EA)
Though I doubt everyone would get a degivice, and some like Jason, already have one.
-
The bridge was a device that allowed interdimensional travel. It was implied to be stolen by the terrorists in the first DS RP and was destroyed at the climactic battle.
-
& Jason has his tardis.
That bridge thing sounds like something from one of the the toon rpg books I have, forgot which one, or maybe I read it somewhere else. A merry go round that can take you to other worlds.
-
hmm thanks sounds like something we could use in the toontown rp..
-
The merry go round that can take you to other worlds?
I remember another thing I read somewhere, I think maybe a gurps magic items book. There are 2 types of tickets, silver and gold. Both, if used, take you to a amusement park that seems to have entrances to different worlds and has folks from other planets, worlds, and dimensions. The main difference between the 2 is with the gold ticket you can use it anytime you want to go to the amusement park & it is always open. With the silver ticket there is a chance when you arrive in front of the entrance that you'll see it's closed for this or that reason for a few days or hours (forgot the details). I don't recall if it has separate entrances to the various places, or not.
As for the bridge I'm sure Jason could help with repairing/rebuilding it, considering what sorts of things he knows.
-
the brisdge is in the hands of the bad guys at the moment.. and those ticket ideas sound great. might want to add a broze ticket to it. you get a 50-50 chance of it being open or closed.
-
for here, toon world or both,
And the bronze ticket idea sounds good. Maybe a Copper with the chance 25%, very low true. Also a minimum on how long you have to wait before trying to use the ticket again, especially if the place is closed.
-
ok, copper will work, but 4 sounds like enough depending on price
-
Not to many or to silly?
-
not at all. i really like the idea..
-
I'm glad you liked the idea.
-
no problem.. All it takes is one great idea and it builds on itself...
-
I'm planning for Darren to attempt to trip the anti-handling fuse on the last bomb but he gets caught.
What happens is the bomb (along with Chong's magic bomb) gets implanted into him, either by Dragonstorm's scientists or Chong's teleportation abilities.
-
Thats fine. he will be bound and gagged and thrown in a crate. with the bombs magically set to go off at the same time.. sio in essence he will be a suicide bomber.. in a sense
-
ok, so the hotel is sealed off from the gas inside, meanwhile nearly all of Surf point is burning..
-
Astorath will be defeated in the next few pages and the invasion by dragonstorm and Chong will begin..
-
How will Dragonstorm and Chong get to Surf Point from Pelvanida? I cannot see Chong having enough power to teleport 40,000 + soldiers and vehicles several hundred miles. However, maybe a convoy of armored vehicles will do the trick or maybe they are parachuted in?
Also, Carson City Camp's troops are also arriving as well.
-
Maybe he can open and hold open a gate while his troops go through the gate.
-
they will travel on the ground of course, they will move naturally.. obviously Chong doesn't have that kind of power.. it will take them at l;east a couple days to get to Surf Point, with the mustard gas not fully dissipated , there won't be much those inside the hotel can do.. the Dragonstorm forces will essentially be uinopposed.
-
except by some who can put on protection. Like Jason. no idea how it will effect digimon who are digital and not flesh.
-
they will have to wait for the gas to dissipate..
-
I guess either no one or just a tiny group then could battle in the mustard gas then.
-
we'll see how the battle goes..
-
There are robotic soldiers (and Strut mentioned way back in the early RP that some nearby bases are sending over some aircraft and drones to assist) outside in the fog.
I guess it can be assumed that the robots and drones are doing the fighting for now?
Also, Setsuna can cast poison cloud and magic bomb through glass.
-
Ok thats works.. and we might have some of the creatures who can fly at high altitudes (like Dragons) be outside..
-
Or anyone sealed in an airtight suit or can naturally survive in the vacuum of space.
-
Deimos and Capt. Milos have protective suits so they can also fight but I really doubt they want to unless they have no other choice.
-
basically those who will be outside will be trying to delay the invaders lomng enough for the gas to dissipate..
-
Carson City Camp's troops are en route but it will take them almost 2 days to arrive at Surf Point.
-
they'll be arrivong shortly after the invasion begins..
-
I guess there will be some outside battling the invaders then.
-
yes there will be..
-
Semi relevant question:
What universe did "Guardian Form" Petrie and Ducky come from?
I ask because they were mentioned in Insane Cafe 2.
----------------------
They seem like really interesting characters but the Great Valley in this is the Twilight Valley incarnation so there could be conflicts.
-
Guardian Form Petrie & Ducky? I must have missed that reference. Sounds similar to a version of Ducky and Petrie I ran in an earlier insane cafe chapter. Likely not the same one. That one was based on the ideas I had for a lbt version of the power rangers. Again, doubt it's the same thing as guardian form Petrie and Ducky.
-
Sounds similar to a version of Ducky and Petrie I ran in an earlier insane cafe chapter.
Yeah, I remember some of the powers they had:
Ducky: Could dive into any surface like it was water, "Ice tooth" (projectile icicle attack)
Petrie: "Big Blowy Wind" (wind attack that picked up debris and battered enemies), "Sky Fire" (directed lightning strike)
-
well we could bring those characters back..
-
They actually would be pretty interesting as "public domain characters" (anyone can control them as long as continuity is maintained.)
I guess since the TWV dinosaurs are older, these two's powers would be more developed.
-
well they were teenagers in the second story. so they'll still be teens in this one..
-
Erm, yeah...
The Gang of Five in TWV was in their early 20s but I can work with their new ages.
-
we'll say they were in thier early 20s then, we don't want any contuinity prroblems..
-
I remember some stuff about them. Since they had not tech the way I did their morphs was like the ninja rangers. Not sure of the exact words they said. Not sure where the 2nd chapter is to look stuff up.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4JcfrlobRs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4JcfrlobRs)
I don't recall if they had a costume. They may have gotten larger or changed color since dinos don't wear clothing. I do remember some stuff. The 4 footers my idea since they don't really have fingers would cross their front feet. Not sure how Spike would say the words since he can't talk, unless he doesn't change or grunts or something. I guess they could just change color.
As I recall it Mr. Thicknose was their mentor. The backstory I had in mind was he was the last living member of his team and the way things worked then was the last one alive became a guardian or whatever term I used. They would stop aging and when events happened when the great valley needed guardians/rangers or whatever they were he'd pick successors to pass the power on to, & become mentors to the new team, and they'd then start aging at the normal rate once more. I think I have Ducky talk about this a little. My idea was likely most (or all) of Mr. Thicknoses team members eventually died from old age one by one. Since few rangers are actually killed I thought it would be in keeping in spirit of the power rangers thing and LBT since few Dinos are killed also.
- - - -
in an rp discussion that fizzled someone suggested in addition to this that maybe there could be beyond rangers with some other folks being members of that one and grandpa longneck being their mentor. Though I wasn't going to be the gm of this and I don't know what the great valley rangers have been like since sadly the discussion fizzled out.
-
hmm. who were the others on the team. i recall ali wasn't, at least in the second Cafe rp..
-
I only rped Ducky and Petrie since they got separated from the others when the gang were exploring some caves, as they often do. There were other team members but I didn't say exactly who they were I don't' think. I guess the movie gang would be all members, of course. I wasn't sure about Spike since he can't talk but maybe he could grunt or something or mumble or grunt incoherently and that would count for morphing.
I had not decided and didn't mention of Ruby or Chomper were members or even in the great valley. I guess for max number of players it could be they are great valley rangers, or beyond rangers living in the great valley.
They could be extra rangers sort of things. Since many seasons had more then 5 rangers by the end of the season.
My idea for the zords and mega zords would be like mystic force where they become zords themselves, and can merge into a mega zord.

Silly ideas but that is how I did or though of the lbt version of power rangers you saw in the earlier chapter of the insane hotel.
Cera my idea, though not mentioned, would be her ability to crack rocks would be increased maybe along with or instead, maybe a sonic yell sort of thing, sorta like the silver an bronze age black canary had (a DC comics character).
-
ok, that works.. bring them in again..
-
I guess I can have jason go and pick them up, since I guess the future jason has left, or he could drop them off, the future jason that is.
-
or they could pop in as they did in the previous story..
-
Coming out near where Snoopy lives like they did last time? That is way over near where the insane cafe is, far from where the hotel is.
-
they'll go through a portal this time then..
-
That who will make?
-
There is a teleport gem that Mr. Bigmouth possesses but he used it to widen the portal between the hotel and the Great Valley
-
I guess I could have Jason the god or demigod appear to ducky adn petrie and teleport them to the hotel.
I found the page with their morph sequence.
-
I think stripetail gave them a teleport crystal at the end of the second story like he did with spyro and Cynder. I could be wrong though I'll have to go check..
-
I think Jason took them home to the Great Valley, along with Ali.
-
yes thats right.. its toward the end of the story..
-
So they talking to Nick who is underground, ok.
I guess in my next post I can have the 13th or 14th Jason go to where they are and teleport petrie and ducky into the hotel.
-
no i don't think that is necessary.. we'll have them come in through the portal, as they are curious about it..
-
what portal where?
-
the portal connecting the Valley to the Hotel..
-
the messenger from the imperial dragons has come to offer aid .
-
Ok, I had Jason come up. When should I reintroduce Ducky and Petrie?
-
in the next few posts..
-
& in what way? Jason teleports them there, makes a portal for them or some other way?
-
So what exactly are Ducky and Petrie's powers?
-
they go through the portal that leads into the hotel
-
Wouldn't there be 2 versions of the gang in the valley then?
-
i don't think so.. we'll say thier powers are hidden from the other dinos.
-
Ok, Are just Ducky & Petrie there, or are the others there also?
-
they go through the portal that leads into the hotel
My previous question was more along the lines of "what attacks/powers do they have"?
I assume that the two retain these powers:
Ducky: Could dive into any surface like it was water, "Ice tooth" (projectile icicle attack)
Petrie: "Big Blowy Wind" (wind attack that picked up debris and battered enemies), "Sky Fire" (directed lightning strike)
I do believe that Ducky and Petrie once combined their powers for the attack called "Big Skyfire" (a very powerful directed lightning strike)
--------------------
I also came up with some additional powers (reflecting their maturation):
Ducky:
Ice Storm (fires a spread multiple icicles in front of her)
Water Claw (fires a stream of high pressure water that cuts like a laser)
Petrie:
Wind Claw (fires a single crescent shaped shockwave that cuts like a knife)
Combined:
Whirling Ice (traps targets inside a vortex where they are repeatedly slashed with blades of ice)
-
sure those powers work..nice work Serris.
-
Very good ideas. I had a hard time coming up with the few powers I did. I tried to keep the names proper lbt names and the attacks based on who had them. Ducky being a swimmer so maybe water and or ice based attacks and abilities, Petrie is a flyer so maybe sky, air, flight stuff.
They did combine their power for a more powerful attack at least once. I don't recall if they did it once or more then once. The idea I got is there are times when the power rangers will combine all their weapons and touch one of them, usually the leader I think, and he can do a powerful attack. So I thought logically just 2, as in ducky and petrie should be able to combine their power together.
-
that sounds very reasonable..and its just those two Kor.
-
Ok, so the other gang like Littlefoot, Cera, ect either don't have the powers, or are not here yet?
-
not here.. although we don't want so many characters that we give some short shrift
-
ok, makes sense.
-
invasion will begin shortly...
-
ok. guess most of the players won't be involved with the battle this time?
-
the refugee that aren't sent to oz or the great valley will staty in the hotel. once the gas lifts the defenders will leave the hotel and beginthe defense of the region..
-
was that a regular lightning strike or one of the planes or something attacking?
-
Regular lightning strike.
I do not think the planes are close enough to bomb the generators.
-
its a regular lightning strike
-
*shifts eyes and slowly raises up hand* Guess what, I am actually, starting to consider in joining in this one, I mean, I keep on hearing/seeing the word insane around and it does seem to be rather intruiging and all. And from what I seem to be understanding, they're all in a haunted hotel of some sort? But then, what's this invasion all about?
Okay, maybe I should just ask for a short sypnosis on what's going on with this RP, because if one is allowed people with magic in it, I have a character whom could fit into this one, perhaps. But yes, a short sypnosis on what this RP is actually about would be rather nice, if someone wont mind in explaining everything to me in a short way that is, don't want a big, winding explanation sort of thing, lol.
And after the explanation, I'm pretty sure I would still want to join in somehow, just want to know what it's actually about, as in, who are the villains in this and all that sort of thing.
Because yes, this does seem to be rather intruiging indeed ;)
-
But then, what's this invasion all about?
The invasion ties in with Darwin's Soldiers actually.
Dragonstorm allied with a powerful mage named Chong and they plan to level Surf Point.
Right now, the party then the invasion is the focus of the RP. There were several "story arcs" that were already completed.
On a side note, some characters from Darwin's Soldiers make a cameo!
-
Ah okay, good to see some cameos appear.
Is it too late for me to jump in by any chance? Cause I wouldn't mind having some fun in the RP as well you know XD
Cause I am also wondering what would happen after this invasion, if more will be happening afterwards, like, something else....whatever it could be, lol.
-
Yeah, only reason I'm asking to see if I can jump in or not is all, it's cool either way, just would like a sypnosis on what has happened and all, a short one like I had said :p
-
Sure you can join
as for a synposis well lets just say there is going to be a large invasion of ther area known as Surf Point By Dragon storm, and Chong. Chong specifically wants to get revenge on Nick and aves , because they stopped a previous plan ofhis for world domination. The Hotel was cursed, as well as haunted, they just broke the curse, but the hotel remains hauinted :) whatever character you want to play Drajke is fine..
-
Ah, cool. I'll probabally bring in Myra and Roze from Toonworld into this one.
Just so I know, what does the hotel look like? That's so I know on how I could bring in Myra at least to help out everyone else XD
-
its a old, ten story hotel. jUst picture an old creepy looking hotel.. with faded wallpaper, creepy staff and no modern convenieces, and presto you've got it. the trick is, Dragonstorm has surrounded the area with mustard gas which is a very dangerous gas.. it can be fatal with prolonged exposure..
-
Ah okay, cool, I suppose one could say, lol.
But, I have an idea on how Myra can enter the hotel....in style! XD
-
Alright... let her enter... :)
-
Hehe, well, as you know, Myra's inside ^^
As for Roze, I'll bring her in later on, and so you know, one wont know who she is upon first look, but they may know her from her name, or they may not, even though Myra noted who Roze was ;)
-
well have Roze join up with Chong and Dragonstorm, as chong will otherwise try to eliminate her.. if shes not an ally, shes an enemy.. there is no inbetween for him..
-
Yeah, sounds like a plan indeed. Where is Chong and Dragonstorm at the moment? Just so I know of where to actually bring in Roze.
-
they are in the air headed towards Surf Point. Have Roze fly in on her broom stick..
-
Ah, up in the air, awesome. Roze'll probabally fly by at least on her broomstick.
Just a very quick question, what does Chong look like? Just so I know as to not get anything wrong XD
-
he's chinese, think of the bad guy from the 1993 movie the shadow..with magicakl powers. strong magical powers..
-
Ah, sweet as, that's all good ^^
Just so I also know, who is Chong's character? I take it, he is Serris' one? Just aking sure is all XD
-
no, I play him, although he is originally AvestheforumFox's character..
-
Ah okay, well, Roze is now flying around outside, so if you want Chong to see her or something like that, you can XD
-
alright then, have her fly up next to Chongs plane..
-
we have reached 300 pages. the Haunted Hotel will very shortly become the second longest rp in GOF history..
-
That'll be something indeed. :yes
-
well this rp is now second alltime in length behind the fantasy rp..
-
And it may get longer indeed. :yes
-
Just so you guys know, Destiny's pokemon can talk, it's somethign she had taught them, took her a while, but she managed to do it.
In case you haven't figured it out, Pikachu's the leader of the three of them, Vaporeon's more or a snob than anything else sort of thing, a bit rude in some points, and Eevee's the scardy cat, gets scared of ghosts for example, and does talk with her mouth full as well, you know, doesn't act proper with food XD
Destiny, by the way, wears usually, a shirt, a pair of shorts, shoes and wears a cap on her head. Her hair is brown, which comes down, just past her ears, so it's sort of short in a way, but not too long.
And yes, those are her main pokemon she uses, and she has only three badges, since she takes her time with that sort of thing, in no rush to get all the badges sort of thing.
-
Hmm. I wonder if Team Rocket can play a role in the next Insane Cafe?
Also, one weird question, does Destiny herself fight or does she rely on her PokÈmon? That may be important with regards to the invasion.
-
Ah, good question that, she usually relies on her Pokemon to fight, as she's not the best fighter herself, so really, if her three Pokemon aren't around and she's facing someone, she might attempt to fight them off, but would really fail in the process, having no real fighting experience.
As for Team Rocket, it's good you mentioned them and not whatever team they have now. To me, Team Rocket is the best rather than Team Magma, Team Ruby, Team Obama or whatever team they use now.
Yes, I prefeer Generation Pokemon over anything else really, not good with the other generation Pokemon, just so you know. But yeah, Team Rocket would be interesting to have in the next RP.
-
It could be interesting, depending where the next part takes place, and if there is a spin off or not. Also interesting to see how they do against digimon.
-
sure we could bring them into part 4..
-
Well, I know that Eevee would be the one to freak out with Pikachu and Vaporeon mainly fighting XD
But yeah, it would rather interesting to see how they actually fair against Digimon.
-
well We'll see how'd they'd fare.. unless they are ebngaging in some freindly commpetition..
-
Hehe yeah, although, I do forget what moves Eevee can learn, I know Vaporeon can use water moves at least, but not sure about ice moves.
-
well we'll have them practice their moves for the invasion
-
Where? Using the hotel as a firing range is a bad idea and the firing range that the Pelvanida Group used is outside and the air is contaminated with mustard gas so that is a problem.
I assume the Great Valley is an option.
-
Looked around in blackle (like google but the background is all black instead white. Not sure if the site will help you any. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Main_Page (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Main_Page)
-
Ah, the Pokemon Wikipedia, I'll have a look at that at some point, thanks Kor.
And in regards to practicing, all I can say is this....Gomamon Digivolves to Ikakumon, to which Pikachu responds with "Oh come on, that's not even fair!" XD
But yeah, practicing does sound like a good plan indeed ^^
-
it will be in the great valley.. since they can't go outside of the hotel..
-
It would not fit in oz so maybe some part of the Great Valley would be best. And some dinos may be practicing there anyway.
-
Yeah, the Great Valley might very well have to work out well, seems to be the best option too.
-
The only other option is doing it at some location like a planet or continent with no sentient life or a lifeless place with an atmosphere and a comfortable temperature. Which may just complicate things.
--------------------
The only other option I thought of is if we said the tardis, since it is HUGE inside, who knows how large, if it has a holodeck type of area.
-
it would have to be the great valley, i don't think the tardis can fit thousands of people in it..
-
Parts of the great valley training area may have sections, melee, ranged, ect. Maybe one for those of other worlds like digimon and others practice in.
Maybe some sort of training spell or magic so the damage inflected isn't real, though it may feel real, or something like that.
-
Yeah, cause I doubt the King and Queen, nor Raoul for that matter of Myra's world, would want them training on their world, since it is suppose to be secret for starters, and for the fact that they do want Roze stopped as well.
So really, the Great Valley is probabally the best option in this case.
-
The Great Valley has a "shooting range" in the Gravel Fields, which is in a remote section of the Great Valley. The dinosaurs use it to practice archery, javelin throwing and other ranged weapons.
The dinosaurs also practice hand to hand combat (with and without weapons) in grassy areas. They mostly practice in the area around the Thundering Falls Lake.
-
and it would not fit the spirit of Oz so it does sound like the Great Valley is the best place.
-
we'll set up some areas for testing..
-
Sounds good. Though I guess if the dinos dislike having new tech around they may say those have to practice in a different area then where they do.
-
well said.. thats something to keep an eye on
-
Mr. Bigmouth mentioned in the RP that firearms and explosives are forbidden in the Great Valley. I assume that magic that can cause explosions are also banned.
-
i would think so..
-
How about using magic to wish for more wishes? Would that be banned also?
-
I would imagine that kind of thing would be, usually they have that limited to say, three wishes, no wishing for more wishes sort of thing, makes it more fair I reckon too.
-
yes, there is a strict limit of 3 wishes
-
the invasion will get underway shortly..
-
By the way, I am thinking of making Marcel more of a prominent character you know, a chef and all. Also, his ethicity I am actually thinking African-American. If you've seen the movie Deep Blue Sea, then you'll know what I am getting at in a way, but skin tone a bit more darker.
Gives Eevee another friend as well :lol:
-
thats fine drake... :lol:
-
Sounds like what could be an interesting idea.
-
i've started thinking about the 4th story, which will take place aftere this one and after the toon worlsd rp.. if you have any ideas for that one please post them..
-
Will it be set on earth, or elsewhere?
-
it will start on earth them go to another dimension
-
But yeah, Team Rocket would be interesting to have in the next RP.
One problem I ran into with Team Rocket. In the anime, they are almost always ineffective. How would they pose a threat in the 4th RP? The Pelvanida Group, hell Nick and Nani, would rip them to pieces.
I mean, Team Rocket could be "scaled up" like I did for my canceled fic The Mewtwo Project (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5514124/1/The_Mewtwo_Project). There, TR poses a serious threat.
-
They could also be comedic villian types. Not really a threat. There is always that option.
-
serris has a point..they would have to be scaled up, if we were to use them, because if we go off the anime.. they would pose no threat..
-
If you want to do them a serious threat and not comedic villains maybe it will take just a tweak here and a tweak there. I remember in an old issue of dragon magazine they talked about (back when tsr had the license to put out an rpg based on marvel comics) how you could take a no threat villain and do some minor tweaks to make them a real threat.
-
good point kor. lets pick out 10 or so characters we can play for the next one
Mine
_ Scooby
Dixie
Stripetail
Shaggy
Tigeress
Tiger
Flash(thier daughter)
spyro cynder
agumon
agumina
-
So we should list the chars we are rping in this rp thread?
-
the characters you plan to play as in part 4
-
Mine:
Ms. Swimmer
Zachary
Deimos
Mr. Bigmouth
Rime
Dr. Zanasiu
Dr. Kerzach
Setsuna
Dr. John MacIntire (This is a hybrid of two characters in the The Mewtwo Project - the "combat scientist" Dr. John MacIntire and the Silph Co. psionics researcher who is Human but has some pretty potent psionic attacks <A deleted scene showed him knocking out a Rocket grunt's Arbok in one blow with a psionic blade then telekineticially taking control of said Rocket grunt's arm and forcing him to shoot himself>)
-----------------
As TVTropes puts it referring to my "scaled up" Team Rocket:
Team Rocket is apparently able to field an entire fleet of various warships (including an aircraft carrier), helicopter gunships and apparently several hundred troops to take over an island.
That should be a good baseline.
-
For me:
Marcel
Myra
Destiny
Pikachu
Vaporeon
Eevee
And possibly even Roze might show up again, she's undecided at the moment.
But yeah, with Team Rocket I could only imagine them being a threat to Destiny and her Pokemon you know XD
-
and regular non powered folks also. Though no reason they can't be comedic villians. Or do some tweaks.
There is no reason instead of being the big bad, they can't work for a big bad and be what my friend would call named thugs. These are a type of bad guys who are not the main bad guy, they work for the big bad and are not eliminated quickly like unnamed thugs are, at least not till near the end of the rp or story. They can be beaten but escape or send in unnamed thugs and escape when they see their unnamed thugs being easily beaten, often in large numbers in some fiction.
You can also have named thugs be minor and major named thugs with minor named thugs while being dangerous opponents do not last anywhere to near the end of the rp or story, like Boba Fett and his father. Unlike say Darth Maul, Count Dooku and Vader. Though perhaps not good examples.
-
and regular non powered folks also. Though no reason they can't be comedic villians. Or do some tweaks.
The Pelvanida Group is has no powers yet they would walk all over Team Rocket.
I guess Jessie, Jamies and Meowth could feature as a "semi-serious" threat. They are still funny and they do manage to do damage but the heroes blast them off.
Though I would imagine the Pelvanida Group would send them blasting off with explosives instead of PokÈmon.
-
& their guns also I imagine. Maybe some of the larger ones can punch them away also.
Guess I should list some of my chars in this rp.
Jason, Guilmon, Brooklyn, Odysseus, Moran, Sara, the extreme dinosaurs, velma, terry, some of the oz folks (though only meant to be background support type and likely just in this chapter only), a sorta power ranger alternate version of ducky & petrie, Ian and his symbiote (though meant to help out in the battle and is in the tardis at the moment and an unknown character), Pete from the 70's godzilla cartoon series.
In case you've not heard of the Extreme Dinosaurs there is an opening at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ErufN2Yp5c (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ErufN2Yp5c)
& the 70's godzilla cartoon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTItRfN-LO8 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTItRfN-LO8)
-
i'm also looking for places we could have the characters go..
-
The PokÈmon World (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh) is a good start.
-
There are lots of options, the ones mentioned, the digital world, stripetail's homeworld, sara's homeworld, other fictional places seen in movies or tv series, anime, animated. Xena/hercules' version of the ancient world, another place.
-
Yeah, and on the off chance, I'll throw in Myra's world for consideration as well.
-
well, i was thinking of bringing some characters from the Ratchet and Clank series too..
-
I guess they are comedy or video game characters?
-
video game characters. they're made by insomniac games.
-
favorite characters of yours?
-
I do wonder what other video game characters could be bought in, cause I doubt Kratos and his bloody and brutal killing ways would quiet work....I think that is a bit too much maybe.
But if it's not too much with Kratos and what he does, I might very well bring him in as well....perhaps :lol:
-
a mix of video game only chars could be another rp thread idea.
-
he would definitely be too bloody imo
and yes ratchet and clank are well up on my favorite video characters..
-
I've not played enough of the right video games I guess to have a favorite video game char. The closest would be maybe sam and max. I liked the little I played of the first gex game way back when it was in stores hwere you could play it.
The video games I usually play don't have set characters usually. They are ones like rpg's where it's just you, not you playing as this or that character like you playing as Mario or any others.
-
I am not sure if the Darwin's Soldiers universe can be placed in.
-
Sam and Max could do rather well in it.
And as for the Darwin's Soldier's one, not sure on that as you know what would be happening after the RP and all, Dragonstorm is apparantly to be destroyed as far as I know.
-
we can always create a new bad guy, or knowing how red tape and bureaucratic inertis plays in.. it could be awhile before they are cleared
and and weyland yutani is the company from Alein
-
So going to make an alien bad guy? Sounds pretty bloody.
sounds liek more chars for the next insane cafe, toon, or another rp of it's own. The only chars I know of that were in a video game are the dinosaurs for hire, who were comic book characters who were in 1 genesis game. Don't think they were in any others.
-
Yeah, I have to agree, that does sound rather bloody for that. It really depends on how far into things we want to go, as in, how bloody or whatever you want to kill it. As Darwin's Soldiers can be rather bloody at times, so if you don't want it to be that bloody, I don't think that that could work as well.
But yeah, I am just wondering on that, the level of bloodiness, how far you do want to take it so we can get a ground set you know, as in, which franchises will work and which ones wont.
Cause if we do allow it to get rather bloody in the next RP, then we could always bring in, say, Jason Voorhees, Freddy Kruegger, Michael Myers, etc, etc.
-
Actually, the Darwin's Soldiers universe already DOES appear in the 2nd and 3rd RPs.
-
Ah, right, right. I suppose a 4th one with the Darwin's Soldiers wouldn't hurt. Depends on what would happen I reckon. As in, some sort of appearnce or something along those lines.
-
I might reintroduce Taranis to this RP. He is a hard character to play, and yet another one of my own invention.
-
thats fine.. are you referring to the one that is currently going, or the 4th one which will start after this one concludes..
-
Sorry for not being active to much the last few days but I forgot to mention there is an rpg con nearby. This is the last day so things should get back to normal tonight or tomorrow. Also that's why the responses I did were pretty short.
-
its alright kor, was the convention fun?
-
Yes it sure was, sorry, forgot to respond till now. It was over Sunday early evening and was a lot of fun.
Looks like the dragon is causing lots of problems.
-
Yup, and Roze isn't going to tell it stop, she's letting it have its fun, even when everyone else is resting up XD
-
I wonder if it can ever be stopped.
-
Oh don't worry, it will be stopped, the dragon's not going to survive this war.
-
Ok, wasn't sure if you had a plan in mind or something else.
-
Hey, I may decide to start a Tropes Page for the Insane Cafe Trilogy.
-
sounds good Serris. That would be appreciated
-
Ok, wasn't sure if you had a plan in mind or something else.
nah, I knew that the dragon was going to get destroyed, that's for sure. The one that appears in toonworld is another version of it, a much weaker version of this one.
And Serris, that does sound rather cool as well, would like to see a Tropes page about the trilogy myself.
-
yes once we get through this one, planning will start for part 4
-
Keep up the attack on the dragon people, it's going to be destroyed soon, it's close to dying XD
-
Not sure what weapons to use. Except maybe Odysseus using his Galatine, not that it would do much, though it can cut through even stone.
The dragonzord, if it works, would be to much.
-
Well, it's stone coating has already been destroyed, it's now got its mechanical skin, what it really is. But hey, it's damaged quiet a bit now, it's close to being destroyed, that's for sure ;)
-
I assumed you set things up so your characters would be the ones to take care of the dragon. That's why none of mine noticed it or did anything.
-
Oh no, anyone can take care of the dragon, you know, attack it and what have you, that's what Serris has been doing, and so far, it's been working out rather well, his planes and what have you have been damaging it rather drastically.
So in other words, anyone can attack the dragon....with long range weaponary, going up close to it would be a suicide mission, least you get stepped on, eaten and what have you XD
-
i'll have tarrax take care of it.. but not by his lonesome.
-
Ok, no using the dragonzord. Though Odysseus is unkillable so suicide missions he doesn't mind, though it still hurts like ....
I thought you set up the dragon so serris and your chars could take care of it. That is why none of mine have notice or done anything. Don't want to step on someone else's toes.
-
no, Sara can help, of course.. and the dragonzod will be used when the battle resumes..
-
Nah, the dragon was there to attack and kill everyone and Serris so far, was one to notice, I had it there for anyone to fight it.
-
alright
so what sort of magic is roze using now..
-
Ah, more darkness based magic you know, using spirits to attack as well.
Basically, she's decided to kick the game up a few notches, and what's more, Pandora doesn't even know that Myra and Roze are going at it....someone should really tell her that XD
-
alright
chong is having dragonstorm search the city...
-
One of Chong's squads is planning to blow the hotel up. They'll be stopped by the window snipers and machine gunners. Along with some refugees who throw either weaponized pies or Molotovs at them.
-
sounds good.. and exciting..
-
somethingfor the npc's to do sounds like.
-
and pcs as well...
-
don't see any of mine who can do much. Many of them are off in teh tardis having a drink in some bar in another universe. or several bars.
-
well we'll just say they are taking a breather before returning to battle
-
sure, why not. not that they were much use before or were before or will be in the future so it really doesn't' matter.
-
Just so you all know, Roze has no other mechanical creatitions, the dragon was the only one that she had built, well, what her imps had built for her, as she powered it with her magic. She's not good with technology still...which is why her imps made the dragon, after having read blueprints and all, getting a rough idea about it.
All that's lets from her is her imps that are running rampart around town, well, her imps and of course, herself as well.
-
I guess the imps are small. Are they the size of the gremlins from the gremlins movie. Not sure if you've heard of those movies. Or are they larger then those evil gremlins?
-
they would be small.. i think.. the battle will resume in earnest shortly..
-
Yeah, they're small, like Gremlins would be,. coming up to a normal person's knee at most.
-
some of the characters will heead in early to bed, others will be assigned to outside patrols..
-
Ok, makes sense.
-
the hotel will be cleaned up (as best as possible) and in the morning the residents will return to battle.
-
so at least some will get a night's sleep.
-
the hotel will be cleaned up (as best as possible) and in the morning the residents will return to battle.
Save for Myra and Roze who are still going at it XD
But don't worry, Roze will be contained soon enough ;)
-
Contained in a tiny jar? :lol
-
possibly.. btw how is the tv tropes thing going..
-
Still isolating the tropes.
-
Alright could you post a link to what you have so far?
-
Yeah, I'd like to have a look at it as well....these trope pages are fun to read XD
-
I want to have at least 10 tropes and the summary written down before I actually put it up there.
-
alright then. how long will that take you
the first story isn't that long..
-
Ah cool. And if you wish Serris, since I'm part of the TV Tropes as well, I could help out where I can with the trope page for this one if you want as well.
I mean, I can look for tropes as well, which I do using the search function anyway, read about them a bit before deciding if they're any good to add in or not sort of thing.
-
now what is a trope?
-
I can answer that, a trope is like this: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main...keMeWhenImAngry (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry)
Yeah, I've figured out what a trope is myself XD
An example is this here: The Darwin's Soldier's trope page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ptitleq765tqvq?from=Main.DarwinsSoldiers)
Shows you a list of tropes attatched to the RP ;)
-
thanks..
-
Here is the first draft: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InsaneCafeSeries (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InsaneCafeSeries)
-
Looks really cool serris..
-
Very nice so far Serris, granted there's not much at the moment, but I know that it will grow XD
-
I found some examples of post modern magik but I think there much more than the ones I found.
Post modern magik is defined as "It's what you get when you decide that magic shotguns make as much sense as magic swords, and vampires that don't show up in mirrors also don't show up on camera.
-
Ah okay, if I find any myself, I'll help add to the page. Already added in the one Cain and Abel one, which I thought does suit Myra and Roze's conflict.
One question I have, a shoutout page would be good too, as I do want to add in at least one myself, but not sure if it should be a seperate page on its one like in the Darwin's Soldier's shoutout page or not, so you think a seperate page would be good for it or not?
-
Depends on how many shout outs there are.
I already know of one. This scene:
Zachary: Great, into the gates of hell.
Deimos's line: No, we move forward unto dawn; the dawn of a new era.
Zachary's line references the lyrics from Primo Victoria by Sabaton.
Deimos's line references the ship from the Halo universe called Forward Unto Dawn
-
Hehe yeah, that's true too. Cause the shoutout I have is Pandora, who I actually based off the mythological figure of the same name, Pandora and the box she was suppose to protect, Pandora's Box.
Also, I do wonder if any of these Boss tropes (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BossBattle) would be able to add into it either, like the mechanical dragon I'm sure fits under one or two of them there, but not sure which ones you know XD
-
It may count as a boss, but not the big boss. In many console games I think there are a number of boss characters you battle before the final big boss.
-
Definitely a damage sponge boss. I mean it took repeated bombardment with explosives and assorted other attacks to destroy the dragon.
-
looks really cool guys keep up the good work..
-
Yeah, that's true Serris, I had a thought that it would've been that, but still wasn't 100% sure myself.
And you're right too Kor, like in God of War 3, you fight a few boss battles before you fight Zeus in the end, like Hades, Hercules, a giant scorpion, etc, etc. It happens a few times in games ;)
-
Some have a mini boss at the end of a level also I think.
-
Yeah, I know what you mean, however, I can't think of any off the top of my head, but I know that there are games like that....
Actually, I think an example of one would be Doom, you fight bosses at the end of certain levels, but they're not the final boss.
Or in Castle Crashers, they do that at times, heading through one level and halfway through, you fight a boss of some sort.
But yeah, the mechanical dragon seems to fit the Damage Sponge Boss trope, taking quiet a bit to take it down in the end, good work people on it too XD
-
its coming along nicely folks.. keep it up
-
liked the new stuff you added serris.. :) nice work. how far are you through the story so far?
-
It's not just him Nick, I've actually added some to it as well, mainly the Shout Out, the First Kiss and the Animal Talk ones ;)
But yeah, I'm trying to help out with the trope page where I can ^^
-
ok, good work to you too drake..so its not a solitary effort then..
-
morning is coming soon and the battle will resume
-
I guess since posting folks sleeping would be a bit dull overall.
-
well, it is close to midnight now..
-
That is pretty late for most folks, or early for some.
-
Not for Drake, Zoe and Zack :lol:
They're used to being up late, but of course, they don't trust the military, bad terms as back in their world....the military doesn't trust their kind....mutants/human mutants sort of thing, you know, those with powers.
-
Wait, are they X-Men characters?
-
Nope, they're not, they're my own characters, own world and all, not affiliated with X-Men, Justice League or any other sort of superhero team.
-
sounds good as long as they are not overpowered beyond reason they are fine..
-
Nope, they're not overpowered.
For example, Zoe can fire energy blasts from her guantlets that she wears, but that's it, no barries or anything like that. Oh, and don't let her punch you in the face....it will hurt :p
Zack, his power is manipulating sound, but of course, what he generates, if someone else generates sound, he can't manipulate it. Reason he has a guitar is that that's how he manipulates sound the most, plays on it, then sends it forward as a blast of power sort of thing. And he does use his guitar as a hitting weapon as well. However, he is vulnerable from the back, as in, he can fire in one direction sort of thing.
Drake, he has flight, healing abilities, but not great, just better than humans do, not Wolverine or Hulk kind. He does have some enhanced strength, but again, nothing that strong like Hulk.
And yes, all three can still be killed, which is why they do try to be careful XD
-
A healing rate like Spider-man had in some comics I read as a kid? In one he was able to fully heal from a gunshot wound to his shoulder while he slept, finding, to his surprise, his shoulder was fully healed the next morning.
-
That sounds about right. I mean, his healing factor doesn't heal as fast as say, Wolverine. So like Spider-Man would sound more like his healing rate, so if Drake were to get shot, he would still be injured in a few hours time, granted, he would do what he can to ignore it and to keep on fighting if he needed to, if not, then rest up his wounds sort of thing.
-
thats reasonable Drake. Chong has sent forces to towns north and south of Surf point, so some of the defenders will be sent there to oppose them..
-
I guess the pc's will be spread out among those different locations?
-
pretty much yeah...
-
Going to be this same thread or a different thread for each location?
-
same thread.. naturally
-
Ok. Hope it' not confusing. I guess it won't be.
-
it shouldn't be, ideally.
-
I hope not. I would guess it may not since it's been mainly ok so far.
-
the battle will resume shortly...
-
i will be out of town this weekend, so the rp will have to be put on hold until I get back. which will be late on Sunday.
-
Ok, hope everything goes ok for you and you have some fun.
-
I;m back and ready to resume..
-
Sounds great.
-
you can play the turtles at any time, kor also pete and his friends too
-
ok, I wasn't sure if you had taken them over.
-
no, they are still yours to control..
-
ah ok. Looks like I have a lot to read to catch up on. Is the battle over? Been a bit busy and such the past day or so.
-
no, on the contrary it has just begun..
-
Ok, thanks for the info.
-
no problem. anyone have any questions?
-
i'm heading out again for the weekend . i'll be back Sunday.
-
:goodluck Hope the trip goes well and you have fun too.
-
Have fun!
----------------
On the RP front, I have played around with the idea of Dragonstorm teleporting in malicious pokÈmon trainers who decide to aid in their fight.
I think this could be interesting but it might take away from the sequel.
Thoughts?
-
What stage would the pokemon be in? Would it be an fc team, or a made up team?
-
Actually that could work, as I'm leaning towards having the 4th one having a Ratchet and Clank story arc to it..
-
I think in Southport, I am planning to have the mages teleport in few malicious pokÈmon trainers.
-
Alright, and we'll start to have the Dragonstorm forces show thier full strength.. and will start to take over the region..
-
Sorry I'm not posting but I've no ideas whatsoever.
-
take your time. ideas will come..
-
I doubt they'll come anytime soon, but thanks. I've no ability to come up with plots. My creativity doesn't work in that area it seems.
-
I'll be willing to help.. one question Serris is South Port North of Surf Poiint?
-
Let me draw a crude map (not to scale).
///////// ///////////Telson AFB//////////////////Turnstile///////////////
//////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Ocean ////////////Southport//////////////////////////////////////////
////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
////////// ///////Surf Point///////////////////////////Iselia/////////////
//////// ///Cobia Bay/////////////////////////////////////////////////
//////// //////////////////////////////////////////////Sycamore/////
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//Neptune City////////////////////////////////////////////
------------------------------------------------
Southport, Surfpoint and Cobia Bay are medium (~15,000 - 20,000 people) sized beachfront towns.
Turnstile, Sycamore and Iselia are medium (~15,000 - 20,000 people) sized inland towns.
Neptune City is a very large (population ~545,000) coastal city.
-
alright, so the mustard gas by and large did not reach the inland towns.. thanks serris.. scooby and dixie are fighting in southport
-
Just so you know, you would have to explain to me, if any other generation Pokemon are introduced, on what they actually are, as in, element or whatever....since I stopped caring for Pokemon after generation 2, and even generation 2 Pokemon I don't know well.
-
same with me, all I know is generation 1..
-
So do all the cities get invaded?
In any case here is what I have planned:
Cobia Bay, Turnstile and Sycamore are essentially worthless (militarily speaking) - Still I assume Chong orders them to invade anyways.
Southport is close to Telson AFB (which is why it is targeted).
Neptune City is too heavily defended. Not to mention that is where the power plant for this area is located.
Iselia is a small but very important industrial town.
-
yes, chong will order invasions of any nearby towns.. regardless of defenses..
-
just human size folks though I guess.
-
no, there wuill be larger creatures as well
-
Remember that Chong still has Dragonstorm's high altitude heavy bomber armed with chemical and incendiary weapons. Not to mention, a forward missile base is being established at Cobia Bay.
-
he'll order that to be launched immediateky..
-
sounds like it'll makea large area totally lifeless.
-
it will blow stuff up, thats for sure..
-
mustard gas has been dropped and surf point..
-
Again? I guess that'll scare off the reporters.
-
its meant to demoralize the defenders..
-
so what towns have Dragonstorm occupied roiight now?
-
Southport, Iselia, Arkan AFB (East of Iselia) and Turnstile are occupied.
Sycamore, Cobia Bay and Turnstile are totally empty (inhabitants fled).
Neptune City is the target of a bombing run.
-----------------
On a side note, the two attackers in the kitchen are a Lucario (Fighting/Steel) and a Weavile (Ice/Dark)
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Main_Page (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Main_Page) can explain all about the new pokÈmon better than me.
-
Surf Point is also under occupation but chong ois headed south to iselia..
-
the group is headed to Neptune City to stop DragonStorms spread
-
i back folks, lets resume..
-
Hope you had a great and fun time. :yes
-
i did, and jittery dragon is joining us..
-
Sounds good indeed.
-
the group will soon be heading for neptune city, and drake you'll need to be ready..
-
I guess the enemy troops are there or are moving there?
-
yes they are moving there...
-
i'm back and ready to resume
-
I am back as well.
-
Sounds like everyone is back then.
-
Mr Drake are you still playing in this or not?
-
Mr Drake has dropped out of the rp, and Toon world, but is interested in returning to part 4.
-
That is good at least.
-
the battle will begin shortly, i assume all the characters kor has are near the base...
-
I've no idea where they are in relation to any base or the other characters.
-
lets just say they are fighting the bad guys as they approach the sang helli base...
-
the characters will slowly push dragonstorm out of the city and begin to take the upper hand...
-
That does sound good.
-
any other ideas from you guys?
-
nice job serris... :)
-
What sort of ideas are you looking for?
-
ways to push the Dragonstorm forces out of the area...
-
Sorry for the delays. If you could hold onto Stern, that would be good. I'll be able to return in a serious way in about 20-30 days.
-
I think you meant to post this in Darwin's Soldiers Noname..
-
any new ideas guys?
-
Maybe make a storm. Bing in some darkness to cover the area maybe.
-
How about a battle in Neptune City? With all them nearby military bases mentioned involved?
-
sure that sounds like a greart idea, then that will eventually force dragonstorm back to the other areas they've occu[ied..
-
now, which of those bases is not under Dragonstorm control at the moment?
-
Here is the current status of the towns in this area:
Surf Point - Allied controlled
Arkan AFB - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Telson AFB - Allied controlled
Iselia - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Neptune City - Battle site
Turnstile - Destroyed
Sycamore - Destroyed
Cobia Bay - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Southport - Allied controlled
-
Telson is the only aFB under Allied control.. Did we say how far away Southport is?
-
Southport is about 30 minutes north of Surf Point. It is currently serving as a motor pool/airbase/port for supplies.
-
we could have some of the folks from South come and help repaair the hotel..
-
Sure. Briggins or Deimos could call up some reinforcements and a repair crew from the base.
-
I'll say that Briggins has ' should We Say Chong is headed to Iselia?
-
Whem Deimos is talking to McCoun he is in the hotel, correct?
-
the 'Repreive Party" is about to start..
-
Hope it is an interesting rp scene.
-
It should be, it will go on for awhile, trying to break up the tension over the last few pages..a least for a bit
-
& is a nice change and something the others may think to do.
-
it will also allow jitterydragon the chance to catch up..
-
A good thing. I do hope Jitterydragon can catch up. I'll do one more post then wait till the person has caught up.
-
well i do have to pm him first so you can add a couple more Kor if you wish..
-
Ok, thanks.
-
Still haven't heard from jittery..
-
Maybe the person lost interest.
-
I'll have to ask him next time I see him..he's likely busy..
-

---------------------------------------------------
Here is the current status of the towns in this area:
Surf Point - Allied controlled
Arkan AFB - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Telson AFB - Allied controlled
Iselia - Allied controlled
Neptune City - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Turnstile - Destroyed
Sycamore - Destroyed
Cobia Bay - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Southport - Allied controlled
Cornova - Destroyed
Dialset - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
-
ok so Cobia Bay will the next target for the allies to retake.. how far is it away, did we say?
-
How about we make it a 10-15 mile drive?
-
Alright.. very close and a relatively easy win for the allies.. getting control ofArkan and Naptune City will be tougher
-
Yep it will be comparatively easy but Cobia Bay is a manufacturing town where Chong has enslaved the entire population into making either munitions or metallic soldiers.
-
yes that will require them to recapture the town and break the magical control Chong has put on them.. and thusly get them to make weapons for the allies..
-
So how will that be done?
Will they have to destroy magically shielded mind-control arrays?
-
Actually thats a great idea.. i think we'll use that..there will be a main control array hidden somewhere in town that they will have to destroy.. this will likely carry us past page 400, which is fine we're not stoping for a bit anyway..
-
Actually wait, I have an idea.
The visible arrays are shield generators that protect the main (hidden) mind control array. Then that has to be destroyed.
Of course, I imagine that the shield generators and the main mind control array are probably heavily defended by soldiers, brainwashed civilians, autonomous gun turrets and heavy armor.
-
You got it, sounds like fun.. :)
-
Sounds like it could be interesting ideas.
Where is stripetail and the others located, in the ballroom with the others?
-
correct, so they will have to make thier way to them..
-
doubt they are needed there, never have before. Don't think they attended any meetings, or if they did just the first one.
-
well they are having a partrty down there, so at least go and enjoy the party..
-
in the middle of their eating and Guilmon having given jason an idea? I got the idea from a clip I saw on youtube of Eric's first morph into the quantum ranger and what happened.
-
well after he tells jason the idea then.. they will need the zord in storming cobia bay.. is the town will have a prtty decent defense..
-
He already told Jason the idea and Jason's working on altering his morpher.
-
alright thats fine..
-
Maybe a silly idea. I was thinking the morph sequence with lightning and such would be used once in a while. I got the idea from a clip I found on youtube when I was looking for something. Maybe the bit towards the end where Eric first morphs.
The link to the clip if you are curious is at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kqjUyMXOCg& (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kqjUyMXOCg&)
-
thatts a good idea kor..
-
Thanks. I think it happened just that once in the series, though I've not seen much with Eric in it since when I have watched that season in the past I avoided any episode he was in.
I thought it may be a bit intimidating if someone morphed like that in front of enemies now and then, especially ones who had not seen a morph before. Maybe give the good guys a momentary advantage.
-
exactly, that would work perfectly..
-
J.T. will be the last singer I control. I guess, Spyro, Tarrax, Cynder and maybe some of the other characters can try their hand at singing.
-
Stripetail will be next. and your singers are very good. I'll throw in a few dsongs I like, and then you can have your characters do oncores if you wish..
-
& he can provide his own special effects while he's singing, like Dazzler can, or could.
-
thats an idea.. i might do that..
-

Here is the current status of the towns in this area:
Surf Point - Allied controlled
Arkan AFB - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Telson AFB - Allied controlled
Iselia - Allied controlled
Neptune City - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Turnstile - Destroyed
Sycamore - Destroyed
Cobia Bay - Dragonstorm/Chong controlled
Southport - Allied controlled

so which is closer after cobia Bay falls? arkan or Neptune City?
-
Neptune City.
Arkan AFB is a several hour drive from Surf Point.
-
that makes senses. arkan will be the last territory that Chong and ragonstorm will control..
-
after a break, we will now resume..
-
Think you should post who is on what team or is that not needed?
-
I will, once I look it up over the past few pages..
-
the invasion of Cobia Bay has begun..
-
we should separate who is with which group so people can keep track..
-
we've reached 400 pages! Nice work you guys... :D
-
That is certainly a lot of pages.
-
The auto factory that the group is in has a shield generator somewhere on the grounds.
And there are four of them (including this one).
-
Sounds like a plan. Thanks Serris..
-
Nice job on the infiltration Serris..
the group at the hotel will stop the detonators from going off.. with just 5 seconds left to spare. Wars are often determined but flukes of fate after all..
-
I actually planned that they lose the bloodroot processing plant and a vehicle or two along with some damaged vehicles but they save the majority of the vehicles and the magazine.
-
That works too.. they can rebuild the machine but it will take time.. and it will piss them off royally
-
Hello. I'm joining the rp. My character's name in Von.
-
welcome to the rp. is Von human, does he have any special abilities?
-
He's human, and I don't really know what kind of power he could have.
Hm, has Bender from Futurama been in yet? Would I be allowed to bring him in and play as him?
-
well sure we haven't used futurama yet..and thats more for the next rp, i'm thinking..but you can use him a a cameo./..
-
I'll save him for the 4th one then >:D
-
well you could bring in more than 1 character..
-
a little background on von would be nice.. von..
-
Um, I'm on the run from bender, who i got a delivery from and never payed back. He's friendly, but a little shy and easily frightened. The delivery he got from bender was actually a doomsday device!. Bender is looking for him, and I plan of him showing up eventually.
That good?
-
Sure, and bring that into your next post.. have him talk with Dixie about his past his family... etc..
-
Of course i won't tell here it have a doomday device :b.
-
you don't have to. but your character will be drafted into the fight..
-
I'll let my character get dragged into it, even though he doesn't want to. It should be interesting that way :D
-
A little more background would be nice. Some of his interests, any family he may have, and how old he is, for example
other than that, nice job von..
-
His interest would be videogames, and pretty explosions :D. He's 25. been traveling around both looking for a job, and to get away from bender. He has no family.
I have something to ask. How is the area around the Hotel? Is it very war stricken? what about the different sides in this war? is one of the groups out there somewhere away from the hotel? I might have bender meet them first, but I just want some clarification on things.
-
bender should not be involved in this story. the sides are the Seaboard coalition which is led by stripetail, and the enemy is Dragonsorm, a group bent on world domination, and Chong whos a power-mad warlock. and yes the area around the hotel is war-striken, in fact the surrounding area has been turned into a fotress. No one is allowed the leave unless they are on a salvage mission, or are part of the forces trying to drive our Dragonstorm..
-
ooh, the doomsday device i got from bender should be why you invited me there. I could be waiting till i see you to bring it up, because it's supposed to be top-secret.
-
Thats a possibility, but stripetail won't allow them to use it.. we'll have to think of another reason... and try and post longer posrs von..
-
I'm considering removing Hans, Werner, Franz, Kurt, Al, Jose and Dirk because they are getting too much to handle for me.
And I may add in a "living airplane" (somewhat similar to the Pixar movie Cars) as a character. The plane will probably be a male A-10 Thunderbolt II ground attack plane.
Sound good?
-
alright
we'll say they went back inland to get reinforcements.. and i like the idea serris :)
-
Could be interesting. Guess he'll be pretty large. Reminds me of a Tex avery cartoon.
-
i'm interested in seeing him too. can he carry passengers?
-
No. Captain Fairchild does not have a cockpit.
-
alright.. so he;ll serve as air support.
-
Yep. That is kind of what A-10 are for. Ground attack.
-
Alright. the they will take over Cobia Bay completely and move towards Arkan base next..
-
I guess I should make a map of Ft. Inglorious.

thanks, that gives me an idea of where everything is..Now should I send some more characters on tactical strikes like cynder and spyro are currently doing?
-
thanks, that gives me an idea of where everything is..Now should I send some more characters on tactical strikes like cynder and spyro are currently doing?
It would make sense to me.
-
Alright. now just pick out a few characters of yours and have them volunteer..
-
Since Captain Fairchild is a living plane I would assume that it would make the most sense for him since he can carry quite a heavy weapons load.
Rime is an excellent sniper. I guess Anton, Paul, Strut can serve as the "generic infantrymen".
-
Alright.. those should work fine..
-
I plan to add 2 more living airplanes that anyone can use.
Major (Maj) Lockie (more commonly known by his nickname of "Spectre") - a male Lockheed_AC-130 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_AC-130) gunship.

soiounds like a plan serris.
-
Oh yeah, I should note that Capt. Fairchild is my character alone.
-
thats good.. once the city is taken, the grouop will not return to the hotel for awhile
they will maje do at whatever buildings they can find with sopace..
-
How much longer is the 3rd round going to run? I heard about the 4th one possibly starting soon, and I'd really like to join that one.
Is the fort itself going to get attacked? I'd fight then.
-
Since the anti-teleportation field is not up yet. I guess Chong will try teleporting more troops over in an attempt to destroy the hotel.
------------------------
On a side note, is anyone going to play as the two living aircraft (Major Lockie "Spectre" and Second Lieutenant Martin "Viper")?
-
well the 3rd story will hopefully be wrapped up soon.. the more rpers we have, the better..
-
I'm heading out to DC tomorrow so I will be unable to post in this rp until Monday. If you wish top continue posting in the meantime, thats fine I'll get caught up whenI get back..
-
Good luck, hope you have a lot of fun. :cheers :celebrate
-
i'm back, and once the airport is gained, they'll take a few hours to patch things up before moving on.
-
That sounds good. I guess others have plenty of ideas on what they'll post once that happens.
-
nice work on writing out your excess characters serris now you'll only have tpo focus on your main ones..
-
I'm thinking of bringing in the Professor from my fanfiction. He'd be a kind of research and development person trying to make new and better weapons and defenses. He'd also be a slightly mad scientist, and a forgetful old person, since his personality is kind of modeled after Hubert J. Farnsworth from Futurama. Could that work?
-
sure thats fine Von. Bring him in..
-
Sounds like he could be a fun character to read his posts.
-
just have him crash outside the fortress as they will shot down anything that enters that space that is unidentified
-
Thanks, I'll do that. I couldn't think of how to introduce him.
-
no problem. just spend some time on things and you'll be suprised how things turn out..
-
Von, have Bender volunteer to help with the battle. in the show, he likes causing mischeif..
-
Imagine him with a pistol or rifle, or something similar. Or just his metal fists.
-
the groups will reach their destination in the next page or so.
-
Alright guys I'm looking for idea on what should happen after Galena and Neptune City fall to the Seaboard Coalition.. ideas will be welcomed..
-
is that where everyone is fighting now?
-
ye, that is where they are now...
-
So the good guys will fail then where they are currently fighting?
-
No,m I am asking what should happen after the good guys take over those areas..
-
Maybe Chong gets captured and then we wrap up with them cleaning up Arkan (Chong AFB)?
And the other places that have been conquered will surrender once Chong's been captured because they coerce him to order his troops to surrender.
-
Great idea.. because i'm hoping to wrap this up and start on part 4 nefore the end of July.
-
I'm just going to say that I'm dropping out of this RP. It's not any of the other RP'ers here or anything, I just don't find this very interesting anymore. Nick has to keep PMing me to make me post here, and most of the time, I really can't think of what to post. Also, this RP is really confusing for me to follow for some reason.
-
i understand
thank you for your participation von.
-
Maybe you'll try the next part out.
-
hello, I will join the RP as Tigger :D . What do I need to know to start?
-
well, the first thing to do is edxplain how Tigger got there. you can't just have a character pop in out of nowhere, you need to explain how she/he gor rhere, and why the character is there. Is s/he on vacation? there by accident? etc.
as for the story. an evil mage named Chong is trying to take over the region.. and eventually the world, he's allied himself with a group of terrorists named dragonstorm, who have access to the most cutting edge weapons in modern technology. Standing in their way is a hastly assembled assortment of characters, consisting of mages (Lord Stripetail, haresh, Setsuna and others) dragons(Spyro cynder, Tarrax etc), scentists (pelvanida group) and a varied group of cartoon characters (Scooby Doo and others). Together, with Stripetail as the de facto leader, they are calling themselves the Seaboard coalition.this war has now raged for nearly a half year, while the coalition, is making gains, chong and Sragonstorm still control vast areas.
-
It could be he went through a portal.
Maybe he was accidently summoned or something from where he was in the 100 acre woods, if something magical gets destroyed or something in the rp, he may appear nearby.
-
Thanks everyone! Okay, Tigger was bouncing through the 100 Acre woods (on halloween night) when a purple lightning bolt struck him, thus teleporting him here.
-
ok, i guess that works...
-
Okay, so now that Chong's captured, now what? End it right t here or show an epilogue?
-
no, we still have to do a couple things, like have everyone check out of the hotel, and then we can start having folks head home.. shouldn't be more than a couple pages.
-
Sounds good, a bit of an epilogue sounds like. Then I guess we start talking about the next part at some point.
-
Yes once we wrap up everything, we can start working on part 4..
-
Alright, we are officially done. I will close this thread and the Rp, and will put up a new thread for Part 4! Great job everyone! :)
