Power Rangers RP

sorry for the double post

Also I think it would be funny if Rito was to pull what is called a Leroy Jenkins, and rush in head first. also since we brought Billy in, maybe he joins in the fighting. And, Patrick, being the Ranger Basher he is, blind sides Billy and punches him in the face and nails him in the groin. Also I vote no- city Megazord battles, and could I bring in Lt. Stone. I know he lost his job as a cop, but lets say he got rehired years back and is now the Comissioner of Police.

i think patrrick needs to tione down the zordon-bashing imo. theres a fine line between being discordant and openly hostile..

Rocky · **Reply #222 on:** April 20, 2011, 03:51:25 PM

ok, maybe after the fight scene and Rob's abjuction (Maybe even halve Rito blurt out where he was taken.) then Patrick puts his resentment of Zordon and the rangers on hold, Both he and Billy put their egg heads together and cook up a rescue plan.

Hello:
I agree with Nick, but I also think this plot that is about to happen can surely help Patrick to change his mind a bit, maybe not make him fully friendly yet, but to admit there is truth in what Zordon say. That would be an awesome character developing as he turns more into a hero for the people, like all Power Rangers are.

Nick22 · **Reply #224 on:** April 20, 2011, 04:54:26 PM

thats a possibility. but in order to do that, he should imo have to be mistreated while being captured and have the others rescue him..

Rocky · **Reply #225 on:** April 20, 2011, 04:58:09 PM

what does Imo mean?

Nick22 · **Reply #226 on:** April 20, 2011, 05:03:28 PM

In My opinion, its shorthand. like Lol is shorthand for laugh out loud, and brb means be right back.

Rocky · **Reply #227 on:** April 20, 2011, 05:29:07 PM

I'd like to make this clear. Patrick's going to be going down the path of a Batman-like figure. He will never be the kind of ranger the others are, but he will become the kind of ranger they will need.

Also is my Idea to have Rito pull a Leroy Jenkins OK?

Nick22 · **Reply #228 on:** April 20, 2011, 06:13:07 PM

the problem with that is that there is no equivalent of Batman in the Power Rangers mythos. theres no part-time Ranger or "honorary Ranger", all the members are equally devoted to the team.

That was an analagy in that he is willing to fight along side with, but he is not a rank in file ranger. He has a fierce exterior, but he still cares about his fellow humans. he will fight to keep his fellow rangers safe, but not because he is friends, but because they are all humans (He doesn't know Canis is a alien, and when he and the others find out, he will break file and try to kill him on the grounds of just being an alien. Basicly Patrick is the qauntum ranger, luner wolf ranger, with a pinch of billy and tommy.

The thing about the Quantum Ranger though is that he would never kill any of the other rangers. Sure he had his disputes against Wes, and he did fight them numerous times, but he never tried to kill him. He also eventually did warm up to the rest of the rangers and became more of a team player, so he did lose the "work alone" attitude. In reality, if Patrick were to continue acting the way he currently does without change, he would lose his powers. The whole point of being a Power Ranger is to work as a team to defend the world.

I also agree about the Zordon bashing. I understand that your character doesn't trust him, but its getting a little out of hand. Nobody really disrespects Zordon that much even if they don't trust them.

I completely understand what you're trying to do with your character Rocky, but we also need to stay in terms with the Power Rangers universe. There has been no ranger that remains hateful towards the other rangers like Patrick has been so far, and normally nobody would care if an alien was among them, so having your character try and kill Canis doesn't really make sense

In terms of your idea for Rito, I don't think it would really fit his character to go out like that. Sure he may be really excited to go after the rangers, but he wouldn't go so far as to break the plan. He may be a little dim witted, but he's not entirely incompetent.

Rocky · **Reply #231 on:** April 20, 2011, 09:27:17 PM

OK. How about this, most of that Zordpon is just like Zedd and rita stuff is just him blowing steam. And He's mostly he's acting out of fear that a repeat of the 90's is coming, and he is mostly franticly trying to find a better way to fight them besides relying soley on power rangers. Patrick is also convinced Zordon lacks the resolve needed to go on offense. Patrick's attitude itowards Aliens is easy to explain. all the aliens he's ever seen from his childhood were evil. So he is convinced that all aliens are a threat, and by meeting zordon he is accaully struggleing with the concept that maybe Aliens can be good too. Also I wanted to bring scorpina in as a rouge element. She basicly does to Patrick what she did to Adam in that one season two episode, except nether knows the other's real Identidy, and the deception goes for much longer. Another thing is that Patrick also considers giving up his powers because he didn't count on being happy again, and he feels the same as bruce wayne in mask of the phantasam

That actually sounds pretty good Rocky. Again, you can certainly have your character mistrust Canis when he finds out he's an alien, but it would be going too far if he tried to kill him.

Chiletrek · **Reply #233 on:** April 21, 2011, 02:30:31 PM

Hello:
The fact that one character will want to kill another will make this rpg to lose the feel of what is a Power Rangers story. So I am glad the character will have a good development without having to reach extreme actions first.

Rocky · **Reply #234 on:** April 22, 2011, 09:38:00 PM

The reason I tripple posted was cause I'm using my ps3 cause my computer crashed. Also another Idea I got is after Rob is ranger-knapped, I was thinking after stopping by the command center, Patrick could take the other rangers (Plus billy, if we're still having him join up with the group at this point) to his home, where he shows them his lab which was converted from a cold war era bunker into a lab. Patrick then shows them his best creation; S.A.I. (Sophisticated Artifitial Intelligence) who is his automated lab assistant. Together with Billy, they get to work converting a machine called the Tran-diminstional monitor to be equiped with a teleportation pod which they use to bail rob out with.

one thing to note rocky, is that it should not all be about Patrick, after all there are 5 members on the team..

Rocky · **Reply #236 on:** April 22, 2011, 10:17:05 PM

ok, maybe we could tweek it so all of them pitch in to help.

Also your all OK with a ranger who smokes, but not with one who bashes Zordon.

With all fairness to my caracter. Here is a guy who's childhood was terrorized by evil SPACE ALIENS, and zordon is an alien, and as such, he is hostile towards all aliens and don't want to take orders from an alien, he would rather good HUMANS were calling the shots. Just walk a mile in his shoes.

Patrick sees the power rangers megazords as bulky and cumbersome weapon, as opposed to smaller, sleeker assault vechicles like fight jets. He also sees the power rangers as in a sense not caring about the people who get caught in the cross fire of their battles, especially if they have megazord battles in the city.

LBTFan13 · **Reply #237 on:** April 26, 2011, 03:17:23 PM

Rocky, you're misunderstanding us. We get that your character has a grudge against aliens, and it's fine to not trust Zordon, but you're bashing of him is getting really extreme. No ranger would talk so extreme about him, even if they didn't trust him. Sure they may question him, but not verbally talk about him like that. The reason why we allow the smoking is because humans smoke. I'm sure there are a couple characters throughout Power Rangers history that smoke, maybe not the rangers themselves but still.

I wanted to bring up that none of us have weapons in our non-ranger form. To keep all of the characters on a fair level. I know Rocky that you wanted to have your character have some background knowledge with said weaponry, but in reality a college student would not be allowed to bring a blaster like that on campus, concealed or not.

I also wanted to bring up your post concerning Goldar. First off, a human would most likely not be able to slide in between Goldar's legs because he is wearing a full suit of armor. Second, I don't know what you have about Goldar's tail, but it's attached to the back of his waist. It's not low hanging, so you wouldn't be able to pull it between his legs, causing him to fall back. Third of all, since when did Goldar have an unarmored red spot between his legs? I don't remember ever seeing such thing in any of the episodes he was a part of.

Apart from all that, you can't post things like this against another player's character because you don't control said character. You may try and pull Goldar's tail, but for all you know Goldar could easily keep balance and push you aside. Goldar is not a weakling, he can hold his own in a fight, despite being outnumbered.
