[LYNCH] Twilight VIII OOC

[darkblade]

Primary (Twilight) Opponents
Here we go. Characters: (taken from Wikipedia)
Bella Swan.
Can protect her mind and is immune to hypnotism and mind reading. Doesn't want to drink blood for some reason. Pure vanilla women, who desperately needs some self-respect. Beautiful as only an unashamed Mary Sue can be.

Edward Cullen
Creepy stalker guy who watches little girls sleep. Can read minds, except Bella's. Sparkles in the sunlight and plays the piano.
He's not gay or anything.

Jacob Black
Pedophile werewolf Native American who has betrayed his people's lifestyle to mess around with crappy cars. Can turn into a wolf, but not a wolf man, and heals fast. Like to wrestle other shirtless guys in a non-gay way, and you could cut the sexual tension between him and Edward with a spoon.

Alice Cullen
Can see the future, although if she was any good at it she'd have jumped in the ocean and would be hoping the sharks get her before the hunters.

Carlisle Cullen
Single-handedly responsible for the aberration that is this story. Is a doctor. Gives information of questionable scientific merit. There is nothing odd about him choosing his eternal companion to be a seventeen year old boy. Nothing at all.


Esme Cullen
Carlisle's bait and switch to prove he's not gay. That's about it.

Rosalie Hale
Doesn't like Bella, making her the most believable character in the series. The fact we're not meant to like her only adds to her appeal.
Made it through the Great Depression thanks to a job in a bank?

Emmett Cullen
Basically a strong vampire frat boy.

Jasper Hale
He can control emotions, and based on his backstory may be actually competent. Long live our glorious confederacy.

Renesmee Cullen
The half human daughter of Edward and Bella. Engaged to Jacob despite being barely a year old.

Werewolves.
There are 16 of them. Nine of them have names, but who cares.

Aro
If he's what passes for a bad guy, no wonder they evolved so poorly. Can read minds by touching. It's truly a tragedy. Still, his existence is an abomination against god.

Marcus
He's Aro's echo. Ignore it, and it will go away. He can sense relationships. Why that could conceivably be useful to a man who rules part of the world with an iron fist, when he could, alternately, kill with a thought if god had been a bit kinder, nobody knows. Maybe if he was subtle and manipulative he could do something with it. If.

Caius
He doesn't seem to do anything. We suspect he's retarded, senile, or both. Doesn't have any powers either.

Volturi goons.
There are quite a few of these. Most are competent, and have offensive powers.
32 of them. Randomly spread around, two Wives always with leaders.
* Afton - unknown talent
* Alec - sensory paralysis
* Chelsea- relationship manipulation (cannot manipulate emotional ties as easily, eg. Bella and Edward)
* Corin - unknown talent
* Demetri - tracking sense (known as the greatest tracker in the world)
*Felix - N/A
* Heidi - illusion of desires
* Jane - illusion of pain
* Renata - protective shield (can form a mental force field to avoid physical attacks, her power is quite similar to Bella's ability to create mental shields to avoid mental attacks.)
* Santiago - N/A

Denali sisters
Irina, Tanya, and Kate. Apparently responsible for the myth of the succubus, as it is perfectly plausible for cultures a globe apart to develop the same legends because three sisters like to have a bit of fun over in Italy.

Our TV Tropes Page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LynchingITP)

OOC stuff goes here.

[doliest]

Ahh, here's the OOC.

So should I do the opening post for our little secret? Don't worry, I can hide identity really well, and I know she can't do anything for a while. Just a few establishing character posts here and there. Foreshadowing, you might call it.

[Draxx]

Tvtropes page. Lynching ITP.

[darkblade]

Sure go for it.

[Draxx]

No, you need a link. I'll update it later, still finishing Cracklord's one. Did I miss anything important?

[darkblade]

There's a link now.

[Draxx]

And a dramatic entrance. How was that?

[Colesign]

Here are my characters:

Y.T.

http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs12/i/2006/313/7/6/YT_from_Snow_crash_by_Tastycake.jpg
1. A Skateboard Kourier employed by RadKIS, that uses a electromagnetic harpoon gun to 'harpoon' cars and ride along with them, pulling sweet skateboard trips all in the name of delivering packages.
2. Has a ridiculous amount of gadgets for safety and self-defense, ranging from Knight Vision goggles, a jumpsuit with barcodes for every residence in the U.S. and impact activated full body airbags, Liquid Knuckle Taser projectors, "Bundy" stun sticks, wrist Tasers, dog tags from the leader of the Mafia, adaptive earplugs, a flashlight, a skateboard with computerized smart wheels that can adapt to any surface or obstacles and a forward facing sonic projector designed to shatter glass, and a few other things...
3. A sarcastic, jaded, and horrifyingly profane personality worthy of Hit Girl.

And Richard "The Overlord" Seaton, the God of Ether

http://www.technewsdaily.com/images/stories/skylark-100315-02.jpg
1. If you notice carefully, You'll see a reference to "Armageddon 2850" on the cover. That's right, the first story featuring Buck Rogers occurred in the same magazine that Featured the Skylark of Space!
2. Anyways, Richard Seaton is a brilliant scientist that grew up in a log cabin, chopped wood in the morning and studied books at night, learned valuable survival skills, went to college, became a brilliant chemist and researcher, a crack shot worthy of the gunslingers of Eld, and became a mean hand at Tennis, whether doubles or singles.
3. Then he discovered a near-unknown isotope that allowed for pure matter-to-energy conversion, among other things. He used it to build a spaceship. Things got out of hand from there.

4. Currently he's working with two spaceships:

The spherical "Skylark II": a shuttle type spaceship the size of a house taht nonetheless can fly from star to star, is made of a near-unbreakables tranparent shell of molecularly bound materials (General Products:smallwink:), is equipped with matter and energy repelling shields, beam, particle, and high-explosive weapons, tractor and repellor beams, a 'pocket universe' generator that isolates the ship from gravity, electromagnetism, kinetic energy, and the works, and a fully equipped laboratory. It's currently a lifeboat for the...

Skylark III, a giant 'dirigible' ship the size of a skyscraper designed to fight big things. It's got lots and lots of engines, lots and lots of power, can travel between galaxies, and project energy across several hundred lightyears. It's got shields of vast powers and layers, a hull surface of gleaming purple transparent material that is the logical ultimate of strong stuff, an inertial-compensation system...it's powerful, okay? It can crack planets, and take hits from planet cracking weapons. Of course, that's not Seaton's goal at the moment.
5. Is looking for his absent wife and friends, and trying to figure out what has happened in his abscence.

[darkblade]

Great introductions so far. I'm going to wait until the other half of a couple of the conflicts post but we're off to a great start.

I do have one concern with V's post. Who is he talking too?

[Draxx]

That's how he talks in the comics, and it's implied at the end that it's his diary that is intended for his successor (Evie).
So he's talking to himself in the future.

As for the end bit, he's instructing Spider Jeruselum.

[darkblade]

Alright so is he with Spider now then? First set of posts and I'm already lost this doesn't bode well.

[Draxx]

He's in the shadow gallery talking to SPider over a communicator he stole or built out of bottlecaps.

[darkblade]

So anyone who knows anything about Code Geass, forget 90% of what you know for this game. I'm screwing with things to make it fit the setting and make the nature of the Geass better fit the mythology it was derived from.

[Gulping]

Jody is Michael's personal secretary and ops director. A low end Spark, her abilities manifest as being apes**t bananas with computers, and being really peppy and excitable.

Especially when things start blowing the hell up. She REALLY likes it when Michael blows things the hell up.

[Colesign]

Say, could you respond to my post?

[darkblade]

Say, could you respond to my post?

Sorry about that I didn't see your post.

[industrious]

And I'll be once more playing the role of the wonderfully deliriously high journalist Spider Jerusalem. Complete with enough weaponry to take out a small country(or New Jersey), enough drugs to cure Africa, and enough **lls to make a bull drop in envy.

Additionally, I'll be playing one Terrance "Terry" McGinnis, who is the successor to Batman after a 30 year hiatus. He's had some rough spots, but the Batsuit's been upgraded to deal with a new world's worth of issues, and Terry himself is no slouch in the heroing department. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LikMS5gDDI) Just ask the Joker.

EDIT: I'd put in a few more tropes.

Always a Bigger Fish: Dream of the Endless to an ascended Eddie Riggs. "All gods are born in my realm" makes Dream quite powerful.

Dangerous Forbidden Technique: Subverted and played straight in multiple cases. At one point, John Taylor(link to Nightside) actually pulls out the Speaking Gun(Artifact of Doom), intent on destroying the Saint of Killers with it, only to have his friend get in the way, and get (caught in the gun's path instead.)(link to Oh Crap). Taylor just killed one of his few good friends, and damned his soul.(Nice Job Breaking It Hero).

Fate Worse than Death: Scott's curse to never be able to sleep again definitely counts.

What the Hell, Hero: Dream provides many such moments. Of course, it's (in character for him)(Jerkass Gods)

Shrouded in Myth: John Taylor attempts to weaponize this against (Reality Warper) Meyer, but the attempt only makes him seem more demonic and evil.

Crowning Moment of Funny: Sanya gets turned into a fez-wearing Teddy Bear on a unicycle by Meyer.

[Draxx]

How's that? I took liberties, and added omniscient Morality license as well since quite a few of us did act like the supreme dispenser of law.

[industrious]

Very true. Seems good to me, though I don't doubt we're missing quite a bit.

EDIT: For instance:

All There in the Manual: Green Arrow's reward for rescuing Black Canary from hell is a silver bowstring. In the OOC thread, its revealed that its unbreakable so long as his love for her remains.(WDYMINS)

[Draxx]

Got it.
We should do a character page or something by this point.

[darkblade]

I don't know about that. I mean they are all characters from existing works it'd be weird to list them like that.

[Draxx]

I suppose so.

Also, should I just do my own thing with V, or do you want to give him an encounter?

[darkblade]

Do your own thing for now. I don't have any encounters for him planned yet.

[industrious]

If you are at all offended by what Spider is doing...I'm doing my job. If it gets too offensive, though, tell me.

[doliest]

I'm gonna guess SHODAN's ending-

Confined to robot hell for eternity with the Robot Devil. She's a terrible musician, after all.

[Prime32]

Reserved for sheet.

Doesn't this need a [Lynch] tag?

[darkblade]

This thread has always had a [LYNCH] tag. It has never been tagless citizen. :smalltongue:

[Gulping]

Alright, cats are all out of the bag now, so it's time for character sheetery.

Michael Wilson: President of the United States of America!
http://i.imgur.com/zyJPs.jpg

Michael Wilson, War hero and sitting United States President, is an uncomplicated man. He likes steak, football, fireworks, and FREEDOM.

The son of a beloved senior statesman, Michael found glory during the Arizona Insurrection, an attempt by human-supremacists to forcefully secede from the Union, then conquer the rest of the country, For his heroic deeds, he received the Medal of Honor, something that, when combined with his refreshing, no-bulls**t attitude, allowed him to win the Presidential election in an unprecedented landslide.

Then there was the 'Metal Wolf' (http://lparchive.org/LetsPlay/Metal%20Wolf%20Chaos/) incident, where Michael earned the distinction of singlehandedly stopping a coup attempt against him by waging a one-man guerilla war against his usurper; former Vice President Richard Hawk, who Michael defeated in single combat in order to put an end to the Vice President's inexplicable reign of pointless terror. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MetalWolfChaos)

However, Michael did have an ace up his sleeve during the incident: The new-model Super Power Suit codenamed 'Metal Wolf.'

http://i.imgur.com/gRJr1.jpg

A super-prototype heavy powered armor developed by some of the best Sparks in the world, it represents an 'unofficial alliance' between Wilson's administration and Wulfenbach, which Michael has no problems with due to actually knowing the man personally and being fully aware of what kind of horror a rogue Spark is capable of (The Insurrection forces had five high-level Sparks, and almost conquered the country with their technology).

The 'Metal Wolf' is 3 meters tall, possesses far heavier armor and shielding than a unit of its size could possibly have according to normal science, and carries around more gun than a freaking battleship.

http://i.imgur.com/7W1vB.jpg

It is a superhuman juggernaut of a suit, and Michael keeps it in a secret hangar in the White House basement that's directly connected to the Oval Office, so that he can get himself suited up the second trouble goes down.

Michael appears to be an unstable, childish idiot who thinks that everything is awesome and that every problem can be solved by shooting it repeatedly. In reality, he is quite intelligent and cunning, and has no problems doing his own dirty work, and honestly loves both America and its myriad, post-human peoples.

The 'hot-blooded manchild' is merely one part of his personality, which he has made his public face because the disaffected American people respond really, really well to it, regardless of party affiliation, and it's how he actually is anyway, so he doesn't have to struggle with keeping up appearances.

Capabilities and assets:

+Trained soldier, expert with small arms and skilled in melee combat.

+Very athletic and physically fit.

+Uncannily skilled diplomat, and a born leader.

+Is THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

+Has a super robot capable of both entering buildings and blowing up armies.

-Comes off as a manic buffoon.

-Has to deal with Congress to get anything BIG done.

-Unpopular with business interests (save Google and Yama****a Industries for some reason), sworn enemies of mankind, Britannia.


Tetsuo Shima and Twilight Sparkle (TS-ALPHA and TS-BETA)

Long range teleportation is risky business. No two beings could serve as a better example than this pair of psionic chimeras, who, as a result of a trans-astral collision, were subjected to pain beyond death and captured by a shadowy megacorporation, which is arguably the worst part.

http://i.imgur.com/kBPnI.jpg

Shima Tetsuo was just another angst-ridden, disenchanted teenager in Neo-Tokyo. Then he started getting really, really, really bad headaches. Headaches that resulted in some weird and terrible things happening that would ultimately culminate in his transformation into THIS:

http://i.imgur.com/LpOjh.jpg

Fortunately for everyone involved, this was quickly followed by Tetsuo achieving apotheosis and transcending the physical reality in order to wander the astral tides between universes as an enlightened observer.

http://i.imgur.com/eHR6t.png

Twilight Sparkle was a magical unicorn from the distant world of Equestria, which is populated entirely by such things. Possessing human-like intelligence and a great well of academic curiosity, she was the lone student of Princess Celestria, the supreme, deity-like ruler of that land.

On orders from her teacher, she moved from the great castle-city of Canterlot, to the small village of Ponyville, where she made a bunch of friends and had fantastical adventures with them.

One day, she was practicing with her magical abilities by working on long distance teleportation, something that she had always had immense trouble with. She could only do it in times of great stress, and she always ended up dazed and slightly singed when she arrived.

Some things are better left alone, because when she attempted to see just how far she could go, her astral presence collided with Tetsuo's at a rate of speed so high that it cannot actually be measured.

The result was their presences merging into one and crash-landing in a field somewhere in Japan. Well, not so much 'crash-landing' as 'forcibly returning to the material plane' but you get the drift.

The thing is, two distinct entities are NOT supposed to merge into one the way that Tetsuo and Twilight did, and the thing that materialized was...

http://i.imgur.com/byk6M.png*
*the correct reaction to the horrid thing that they became

Yeah. Suffice to say that the only reason that either of them is actually sane is because they went into a coma the instant the unspeakable agony reached their brains.

Now, however, they have been separated and restored to their normal forms (although there have been some changes made during reconstruction due to just HOW damaged they were by the collision) and were held captive by the shadowy megacorp, so that their unique genetic codes could be harvested for use in making supersoldiers for the Volturi/Britannia/Aztechnology/Fae Courts/Whatever other bunch of pricks is backing the corp.

Capabilities and Assets:

+Telepathically linked to each other.

+Powerful psionic/magical abilities.

+Physically fit, capable of boosting capabilities with TK powers.

-Hunted by the megacorp that rebuilt them.

-True potential hampered by genetic tampering.

-Distinctive, even in transhuman NeoTokyo-3.

-Tetsuo's powers might not be completely stable...

[darkblade]

Normal tech of Metal Wolf's level does exist in this world you don't need Sparks to make it.

[Cracklord]

I finished my exams, and don't have to work for a week.

I shall now clebrate as is the custom of my people, by meeting friends, going to the uni pub despite the fact it's about lunch time, then drinking, partying, and wishing I wasn't single.

Baron Klaus Von Wullfenbach


http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/barron.bmp

The great Baron Klaus von Wulfenbach, master of all he surveys, ruler of most of Europa, commander of the greatest army of Clanks the world has ever seen (not to mention the Jaegermonster side of his forces). Greatest Spark of the age, the man who rules with a firm but understanding hand.
Klaus is not a populist ruler. He does not give a damn about what anyone thinks about him, and lets them say what they will, as long as they don't make too much noise. He doesn't care what administrations do as long as they do it quietly, and he does not believe in chaos. In fact, the entire basics of his administration can be summed up in six words: Don't make me come over there.
His Empire is actually a lot of states who simply defer to him when he tells them to, but otherwise act as they always have. He is not respectful of tradition, but he doesn't destroy it unless he has to, and generally runs a pretty good Emprie. Given the alternative is basically perpetual war, very few honestly disagree, though given Klaus is a hard man who is capable of doing whatever it takes to keep things, that does not mean he's nice about it. He created a continent of order, but he did it his way, and everyone has to play by his rules. Or else.
He makes alliances when he sees no need to intervene. He considered intervening during the metal wolf incident, but didn't, and was pleased that the president resolved it himself. The two have an unofficial alliance, and even hav been known to work together.

+ Sparks have a tallent. His is 'Observe, then build what they did, only BIGGER and BETTER!' When in the madness place, the laws of physics and biology are guidelines rather then rules, and he is capable of performing feats that seemingly defy what can be understood.

+ Unlike most Sparks, he can control his outbursts, by keeping them down by pure will, except when he releases them in controlled circumstances. This is when he makes most of his weapons.

+ Impressive inteligence and organizational ability. Also very good at rapid improvisation. He can construct a working gun from spare parts in seconds.

+ Eight feet tall and built of pure muscle. Also a construct, artifical human, and has experimented with the Jaeger Draught. He is very strong, very tough, and looks a lot like a cross between Andrew Jackson and Clint Eastwood.

+ Master fencer. He makes his son, who is also a master fencer, look like a layabout by comparison, and can take on dozens at once, or even deflect bullets.

+ Castle Wulfenbach is an airship built on plans salvagd from a dead world by a certain individual in his pay. It is The Deus Ex Machina, only BIGGER and BETTER! As in, the size of a city, rather then castle. It's very efficient, terrifying and awesome, but it can't land and requires costant maintainance.

- Hates politics, and, like most sparks, is bored easily. He really doesn't want to run his empire, he'd rather leave it to his son and get back to adventuring, finding lost civilizations of warrior women and becoming their king, outsmarting evil overlords and that sort of pulp adventures.

+ Good at reading people. Better at finding tasks for everyone. When he takes over, he takes the constructs and weapons they built, and adds them to his own.

- Is not reasnoble. Zero tollerence policy. Is not loved. Respected, definately. Feared, certainly. Loved? No. Also does not know when to stop pushing.

Not shown: Borris (his secratary), the Jaeger Generals, Bangladesh DuPree, Dr Sun and GILGAMESH WULFENBACH!

[darkblade]

{Ah. Doliest must be playing either Claudia or Alessa: I'm guessing Claudia, given her references to the "Bitch" that sealed her away}


You're on the right track. Still wrong but in the right ballpark.



Richard Seaton

He winks back into existence right outside the Congressional Library, only to find a ridiculously large and heavily armed armored power suit pointing several guns at his nose.

He raises his hands with a slight grin. "I just wanted to check out a book, President Wilson. I think something's wrong with the automatons."

The President isn't at the liabrary he's at the furniture factory elsewhere in the city because ninja blew up his desk and mercenaries took control of the factory for no good reason.

[Colesign]

Whoops. Editeditedit...

[Colesign]

Perfect tone, Murkus: I can just hear the sardonic 'stoner' tone of Gordon Freeman from 'Freeman's Mind" coming through.



Aliens aren't invading, Freeman! You're just being paranoid!

Owl's can't read your thoughts, Freeman! You're just being paranoid!

There's not *BangBangBang* There's not an Anthropomorphic Race of Frog people living in the sewers beneath you're house: you're just being paranoid!"

[doliest]

Darkblade, I was just wondering if we were working her in or not; getting revenge on her(and, maybe, getting further with what little planning ???? does) would be rather interesting. Not to mention she might intervene once she feels ??? getting loose.

You don't have to answer obviously, just wondering.

That was a funny series. I'll see just how well I can model Freeman after it. Though I don't want an exact duplicate, as I'm not sure just how much psychotic rambling I can come up with.

[doliest]

Based on that first post, you can accomplish it pretty well-heh. :smallwink: Though, what is this 'Freeman's Mind' you speak of?

[Murkus]

A narration of the first Half-life, as told by a rather... odd interpretation of Gordon Freeman's thoughts. It's pretty funny, actually.

You don't have to answer obviously, just wondering.

I love how incredibly incomprehensible you made this paragraph. I was operating on the assumption that she was long dead but I might work her in later.

[doliest]

Possibly. Depends really, since I don't know if their bloodline ages at this point. She was some type of super-mystic at the end of the first series, and ??? is immortal....though, really, even if she is dead, her Warden is still alive-he's part of the Town now.

[doliest]

And yes, until we reveal identities, all of my posts are going to be incomprehensible, though I'm amazed it hasn't already been guessed, considering how much we've given away.
.
..
And you got mad at me for foreshadowing when you planned to drop that big a hint in page 1? :smallwink::smalltongue:

[darkblade]

To be fair she is rather obscure. She is exclusive to non cannon American comics for a Japanese video game franchise.

[doliest]

Don't forget that the comics are of...debateable quality. To say the least. The very least, actually. Still, I think she merit's a use....if only because it's been a while since I've had a character with this much potential to explore.

[Gulping]

RE the Metal Wolf not requiring Spark engineering:

That's if the Metal Wolf was a normal powersuit (which exist in Metal Wolf Chaos' setting, and are presumably the type of thing that Michael used in Arizona).

It isn't. Normal powersuits were meant to be a low-cost, easily-deployed alternative to larger, more powerful units, like Knightmare Frames, War Clanks, and other such mecha. Overwhelming them through swarm tactics and all that.

The Metal Wolf was meant to combine the tactical versatility of a powersuit with the awe-inspiring power of an honest-to-god Super Robot.

Given the fact that it can easily dual-wield fire-linked pairs of GAU-8 Gatling Cannons, carry sufficient ammunition to sustain fire for over two minutes, and do the EXACT SAME THING for no less than six other 'light' weapons, one has to agree that it is a complete success.

It is absurd by any sane standard.

[LoneMage210]

Ha ha...

Anyhow, I had school work so Decade's intro was delayed... also noted that becides Hibiki and maybe Blade (with enough creativity), Decade's going to have a problem with Knightmare Frames on foot... of course, if he could steal one...

[The Shoveler]

Question: Who the heck is Icarus (besides nanobot's character)?

Also, sorry for not posting yesterday. I gave blood and fell asleep as soon as I got home. :smallredface:

[doliest]

No monsters for Rex or Y.T until ???? is a little better off....and not just because I've never seen GeneratorX and haven't read Snow Crash in years.

[darkblade]

There are super robot Knightmare frames namely the ones used by Suzaku and Kallen. Then there was the goddamn Batmech Lelouch had at the end of season one. So yeah.

[doliest]

Think I'll leave them...alone for a moment. Very alone-once we move forward, I'll let loose the dogs. Think that works?

[darkblade]

Think I'll leave them...alone for a moment. Very alone-once we move forward, I'll let loose the dogs. Think that works?

Also think like a Silent Hill game. When in doubt Pyramid Head even if it makes no sense.

[LoneMage210]

Oh great, Tsukasa ran into the Guren... one of them I think... although something about the girl he chased isn't right... this Mysterious Waif should be fun...

[darkblade]

Oh great, Tsukasa ran into the Guren... one of them I think... although something about the girl he chased isn't right... this Mysterious Waif should be fun...

It's the version that was at the end of the first season. I've yet to watch R2 mostly because I hear it sucks.

[LoneMage210]

It's the version that was at the end of the first season. I've yet to watch R2 mostly because I hear it sucks.

Huh... too bad, didn't see much of the show and the DS game doesn't give me much of a picture... I know the unit names, not so much a picture as I might get them mixed up...

[Gulping]

Yeah, the Metal Wolf can ground-pound. It's one of the better tools it has for decimating infantry and causing property damage, only outclassed by high explosives and fire.

[darkblade]

So um what exactly is SHODAN trying to do?

[doliest]

First, she's trying to let loose the slaves, as was suggested.

Then she's trying to hijack a nuke to launch at the areas around said farms. She's following the 'if they no longer exist in the physical sense, I've done my job' idea. :smalltongue:

[industrious]

Hey doliest, when's your concurrent game going to start?

[Cracklord]

I'll play in it, though I don't know who...

[doliest]

After I get a full list of players...so, two or so days? That sounds about right. Like I said, I need a decent list, five people at least, though Seven is the magic number.

[Gulping]

I'd like to know how the various PCs feel about Michael Wilson. Remember, he understands how dangerous Sparks are, and is earnest and crazy enough to actually invite Spider to the White House for a live, televised interview.

[Cracklord]

Klaus is very much in admiration of him, in his own way, because he represents stability and because he's hard enough to do what needs to be done and keep things under control.

[doliest]

Both my characters are...well....isolated, so they have no strong feelings one way or the other.

[Cracklord]

Doliest, how many players do you have at the moment?

[doliest]

Frankly, no idea. Indy, Shoveler, Animekid(Maybe) You(Unsure of character), Darkblade(I think)....and that's the current line up. I could potentially pull that off. The villains outnumber the heroes 7 to 5, but still, I could work it.

[Cracklord]

Well, perhaps that's a good thing, as this way we'll no longer get the 'Everyone attacks the badguy at the same time!' events.

[doliest]

True, but the Villains outnumber the players, and none of them are going down quickly. Not to mention the final villain...depending on the events, could probably deal with 'everyone attacks at once' pretty easily. Depending on the events. The players can create a scenario where the villain wins, and if they can't figure out a way out, I'll let that ending happen. I'm Laizze-Fairing this one; if the players fail, they fail. The actual possiblity for an 'everyone dies, mission fails' ending spices things up, I think. :smalltongue:

It never works, Doliest. Never.

So, I was going to play Light Yagami. But as he got killed, I'll play someone else instead. Low powered, for prefference.

[doliest]

....Dude, half the characters are dead after the last game. Mickey is dead, but last I checked Animekid is playing him. Canon is a fast and loose mistress, particularly when pulling people from different worlds and time periods. Though you can still change it, obviously, just pointing out that dead characters are fine. :smalltongue:

Edit:And anything can work if you can imagine it-that's what being a DM is all about, gathering a bunch of losers together with the siren call of Doritos and Dew to play with little figures and funny dice into the wee hours, telling a long story of barbarians and wizards. And f***ing annoying players. With insane luck. Ruining my entire campaign and driving meintoinsanityhowthef***didhesurvivethatthe little prick I WILL HAVE VENGEANCE!!! YOU HEAR ME, FREAK, I WILL REVENGE MYSELF UPON THEEEEEEE!

I'm sorry. DMing does that to me sometimes. :smallredface:

Mickey is in a position to be resurected without incident. Afterall, now that Doviculus is dead all that needs to happen is someone returns his heart.
Light is a Shinigami, and might be fun to roleplay and might not.
No, I'm thinking someone else.

...I think I'll play Major Montanna Max, smart guy. :smallwink:

But seriously, I'm not sure. I'll tell you soon, but it will probably be some fairly low powered guy. If I can think of one who suits me.

[Colesign]

"Jody. What'd I miss?"

His secretary turns from her bank of monitors to look at him, smiling sweetly. "Well, Mr. President. We have a possible I.D. on the person who caused the security alert in the Library of Congress. According to reports and the access records, our infiltrator is the legendary industrial hero Richard Seaton."

"Seaton? Seriously? That guy was great! I remember reading those old books they wrote about him back when I was a kid! If he had actually been around a few years back, I would have taken him as my V.P. instead of Richard Hawk!" Michael sighs as he remembers his running mate.

Seaton's got a fan!:smallsmile:

[doliest]

DMing gives me flashbacks. Did I ever mention a game set in Xmen that, two sessions in, ended with a technopath become the high priest of Shuma-Gorath? Funny story. Or my Final Fantasy meets System Shock campaign? Where I, in an insane rage, trapped one player in a gladatorial arena with wave after wave of increasingly powerful monsters? And he won. every. single.freaking. fight. Even after I had outstripped his level by about three? God, DMing always makes me want to smack the players upside the head, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it. Still, be interesting to see who you play.
.
..
And so help me if you play the Major, I will personally see to it that...I don't really have anything to follow that up with. You live in Australia, so you already have the perfect natural defense against my various minions. Unfortunately.

[Gulping]

Michael loves Awesome American Heroes.

Seaton is an Awesome American Hero.

Michael wants to make Seaton the Vice President because the position has been sitting open since Richard Hawk died (No, the Secretary of State hasn't taken it. Things are different in the pessimistic malaise of the crazy post-cyberpocalyptic future).

[Cracklord]

I'll be playing Spiderman. Easy, fun, and versetile enough to be in a position to help out.
Alright?

[The Shoveler]

Have a happy Turkey Day all you Americans! Eat well, enjoy family, and just have a good time. :smallsmile:

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go out of town for a day.

[Murkus]

Shoveler! Waaaaaiiiit!

My turkey day won't start for a couple hours yet, so I'm getting some writing in. I had to ask: how is the Major detecting Azazel and his minions? I wasn't aware she had a method of discerning demonic possessions.

Well the nice thing about a Plot Point system in one's game is that it automatically creates a sort of 'carbon credit' cap on the various amounts of awesome a player can enact. And, since you are the one that distributes these plot points, this makes the players seek to please you with good acting and noble actions and stuff.

[darkblade]

I think I'll play Hellboy as my character for your game.

[industrious]

I'd like to know how the various PCs feel about Michael Wilson. Remember, he understands how dangerous Sparks are, and is earnest and crazy enough to actually invite Spider to the White House for a live, televised interview.

He's a politician. Ergo...


http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/77/150324-48312-spider-jerusalem_super.jpg

Spider dislikes him just on principle. The fact that he is more about being awesome and less about actually governing makes Spider angry.

They aren't going with the breifed plan so she's assuming they have been compromised by unknown means.

[Prime32]

It's the version that was at the end of the first season. I've yet to watch R2 mostly because I hear it sucks.Might want to check the reasons why, and if they match your tastes. Mostly it's because the series becomes more fast-paced and unpredictable. And the mecha scale starts shifting towards Super. I enjoyed it myself.

[LoneMage210]

Yea, Geass R2 is a... let's say things go to hell the moment the show was moved from it's original time slot to the new slot...

Now then, I'll justify my next action as soon as the DM responds

The RideBooker in it's book mode is an archive with all the facts of the worlds he's in, as people tell him the facts. Since it also has other known facts from all the wolrds, he could get them mixed up and end up with a laugh on his hands... or something. This should be something interesting when he brings up GN Particles...

[doliest]

Excellenttttttt!
*Hands come closer together*
Now release the hounds!

[darkblade]

Prime are you going to bring Shenu into this soon?

You and me both, my....according to your location, Irish-Brother.

[Cracklord]

I think I'll play Hellboy as my character for your game.

Then I'll play Michael Carpenter, the fist of God.

Now, as to how he has turned out since... Well, Molly, I imagine he hasn't lost his faith so much as reinforced it, but he also has become a lot less forgiving. He still believes in God, but he know longer finds it so easy to believe in people, and who is to argue with what he has been through.

[Colesign]

Cool. Perhaps someone can play one of my characters. Sanya, Alcatraz Smedry (he didn't get much of a part in the last game, which was a shame), or Sabriel.

Or perhaps even Poppins:smallbiggrin:.

[Cracklord]

Alcaratz is no longer really viable, since he's now in charge of safeguarding all the information in the universes. He makes the rules, and if it comes to it, he changes them. He's very nearly omnipotent.

As to the Order of the Tower, I envision them as I set them up. Most important is not power but nobility, corage and desire to do good, so they are mostly ordinary humans with a few powers or the like. Well, three of them are half demon, but the thought is there. They keep the tower safe, at all costs.
They also have serious power. They have Elric's swords, the Saint of Killers guns, and other, likewise 'desperate measures' equipment in a vault beneath their base they can fall back on if it comes to it.
I had intended to make my next game about them, so I have a lot figured out...


Or perhaps even Poppins:smallbiggrin:.

I know where you live.

[LoneMage210]

Hmm, Kallen has no idea what GN Particles are but it'll be a laugh if she suspects Tsukasa as working for Celesterial Being (if they exist in this world)

[nanobot_swarm]

Had an enjoyable Thanksgiving dinner, especially the Salty Stuffing. Love this gluttonous holiday.

On a note related to the game, is SHODAN currently in the interwebz?

Right, all my understanding of Kamen Rider comes from skimming Decade's wikipedia page and watching the Masker Rider episodes of Power Rangers when I was 5-ish. I have no idea what any of that sentence means.


On a note related to the game, is SHODAN currently in the interwebz?

Yes she is.

[Colesign]

Ah yes: thanksgiving. It's a bit tricky for me, as a vegetarian, but I stuffed myself with a nice vegetarian hash dish, warm bread, cranberrys, string beans, organic pumpkin pie with natural cream...de-liscious.

[LoneMage210]

Right, all my understanding of Kamen Rider comes from skimming Decade's wikipedia page and watching the Masker Rider episodes of Power Rangers when I was 5-ish. I have no idea what any of that sentence means.

Sorry, let me restate: I stated that Tsukasa gets most of his skills somewhere, and thus I suspect he was instilled with various skills that switch around, but a gag is that he's an inept photographer...

I'll see how this unfolds...

[The Shoveler]

They aren't going with the breifed plan so she's assuming they have been compromised by unknown means.

Right. I said demons to clarify who she was going behind. She doesn't know of magic, so she couldn't suspect them of demonic possession.

[Cracklord]

No more multiverse. Please no more multiverse.

Suit yourself.

[darkblade]

Suit yourself.

While the last game was awesome everytime we look at the world beyond we scale up and then we start doing more harm than good.

[Cracklord]

I couldn't scale up past that if I wanted to. I honestly could not.
All I could do would be instead make Nyarlathotep the main instigator, and really that's an exercise in redundancy.

Though people have pointed out some odd similarities (http://nanoha.wikia.com/wiki/Reinforce_Zwei).

[darkblade]

I saw some untranslated pages on /co/ a while back. It's not half as good as it sounds. The only things they have in common with their real life counterparts is that Gaiman-Chan has the same hair cut and Moore-Chan worships Glychon.

[Gulping]

Yes, what Michael just did is something that the Metal Wolf is capable of. In game, it does this exact same thing to a gigantic freaking death-tank.

[Murkus]

What a busy Thanksgiving. I probably won't be able to post until tomorrow morning, Shoveler and Darkblade, so forgive the current slowness. By next week, I'll be keeping up much better.

Don't worry about it for me. I know first-hand that posting can be slow at times. Especially during hte holiday season and finals, which just so happen to occur around the same time. Because school hates us.


EDIT:
To Darkblade- I can't do anything until GLaDOS is fully repaired (she has to be temporarily shut down so that they can reinstall the programming) and I will be waiting for Murkus so Kusanagi can do something. So, I'm heading off to bed to rest up for tomorrow's adventures in my family. :smallbiggrin:

[darkblade]

I am confident it pleases the crawling chaos to take such a form, and believe that somewhere that form does indeed cause madness and mass suicide, widespread devistation and the heavens to open. It's a big multiverse afterall. I am further confident that however he may act, it is all an especially elaborate scheme to further his twisted works, to bring darkness, and it will all end in death and the laughter of mad gods.

Don't take that away from me.

I refuse to accept that such a thing exists. Damnit, leave the man from Providance alone!

Okay then, is Corin outside on top of a building or is he running down hallways?

Does Spider know anything about the other journalist? He is very well-connected, after all.

[darkblade]

Okay then, is Corin outside on top of a building or is he running down hallways?

Running through the halls.


Does Spider know anything about the other journalist? He is very well-connected, after all.

Probably he would. Deithard is essentially Bizzaro Spider. He is a damn good seemingly straightlaced TV Journalist who will ruthlessly pursue any story he deems worthy even to the point of escalating a war if he has to. The major difference is he isn't concerned about the truth so much as he is about bringing a good story to the light. He won't completely falsify a story but he will exagerate and spin a story any way he feels if it will make the story better in his eyes.

Although since most of his work was in Britanania and Japan Spider has probably never met him in person and only knows him by reputation.

[Gulping]

Sorry about the inactivity. Had to do chores.

I'm assuming that Mann Co. exists, since other TF2 things do.

Of course, this implies that Saxton Hale is alive.

Which means that Australia is AMAZING.

[darkblade]

How does the Skylark tell allied humans from enemy humans?

[Colesign]

I was assuming that the evil black uniforms and identical weapon load out gave it away. I also assumed that this revolt occurred too suddenly for the Red Court to think of employing saboteurs to dress up like the blood donor slaves and sneak into the evacuation zone to sow chaos.

I should also add that Seaton's...

Frantically multitasking, plugging away at his interface board and scanning birds eye images for approaching enemy soldiers, and ducking into the viewpoint to the holographic interface every few seconds to see how the rebels are are doing. At the moment, he's able to handle watching a six block radius.

[darkblade]

Alright that makes sense. Carry on.

[LoneMage210]

I'd wonder who'd know a "Pink hair swordwoman" that Tsukasa once picked a swordfight with...

Anyhow, I was thinking of trying to make a "Sutherland Tsukasa Kadoya Custom"... too bad that involves alot of weapon stealing...

[The Shoveler]

hmm... pink-haired swordswoman...
http://media.animegalleries.net/albums/userpics/137169/Baiken.jpgBaiken

Not that that's bad.

Actually, I recently found the first book in the Wheel of Time series at a yard sale in pretty good condition two days back. I think I'll start reading it after my test week. :smallbiggrin:

[darkblade]

Lonley Mage, I know you mentioned you wanted someone to play someone from Nanoha but no one stepped up. So now you have upgrades that no one is outright qualified for and the only PCs that sort of qualify are on the other sides of the planet.

Yea, but in the meantime, at least he'll be a pilot for awhile, at least until his gear can operate correctly... when trouble comes at London... at least I'll be ready...

Given time, one could try to get data on the DecaDriver and make their own version to use the "incompatable" cards.

[darkblade]

You know one of the best parts of DMing for these games are PCs you know next to nothing about. With them you get to do all sorts of crazy stuff just to give them something to do.

Edit: Indy? Do you want to cameo as John Taylor or the Doctor?

[industrious]

How big a cameo are we talking? I'm hoping one scene only. Escalating this game is the last thing I want to do.

[darkblade]

How big a cameo are we talking? I'm hoping one scene only. Escalating this game is the last thing I want to do.

You probably won't even leave Strangefellows. A small conversation with Kallen and Tsusaka, fixing Tsusaka's plot device, maybe a bar fight and then you'll go your seperate ways.

[industrious]

Sounds good to me.

EDIT: I'll just have The Doctor at the bar. Taylor, if he shows up, will probably be even more powerful, and I don't want to get him involved.

EDIT2: Is 11 a fair choice for Doctors? Any particular preference?

[darkblade]

Any Doctor will do fine.

[The Shoveler]

My previous action for The Major stands as is. Just add "bleeding" to Corin's current description. :smallsmile:

I'm not sure how the cloaking works with GITS tech. Would it hide his bleeding?

[The Shoveler]

Depends on where he is relative to the person observing. Kusanagi is cloaked fully and the parts where she's in the way of Corin make Corin invisible, but only in that area... if you understand what I'm saying.

[Colesign]

I must congratulate you, Darkblade.

Given the lemon of my overpowered character, you made the lemonade of "come up with an intercontinental war for him to deal with."

[darkblade]

Thank you but a war was going to happen with or without him. He just got to be lucky enough to help start one.

[LoneMage210]

Hmm, wait a minute, just so I could help narrow down a bit, anyone know Kallen's official height off the top of your head?

[darkblade]

The wikis don't say so I have no idea.

Did you just make up your crossoverrific backstory with no thought about who the particular characters in it are? Thats the DM's job man. :smalltongue:

[LoneMage210]

Sorry...

At least I did a good job doing a convincing act... let's see how this ends... (Hopefully with no broken tables...)

[darkblade]

I do have an idea for a character that can fit the description and could be woven into the story later. I'm not going to tell you who it is yet though because I want it to be a surprise so no more clues lest you contradict me.

[LoneMage210]

Alright, I'm going to prep my responce... amoung the lines of "Uh-oh..."

[darkblade]

Is something wrong with Draxx? He hasn't posted in a while and other charcters plots depend on Doom and V.

[industrious]

darkblade, would you mind giving Spider something to do? I'm just going to have him wander the streets, looking for drugs/a good time/a way back to the City.

[darkblade]

You tortured my plot hook. I'm trying to think of another way to get him going.

[industrious]

Oh...sorry. Spider is very fond of doing that. Maybe have him find a card or a note or something on the man's body?

[darkblade]

No it's my fault. I really should have seen it coming.

[Colesign]

Maybe he could try and investigate the whole "Richard Seaton showed up and threatened your ass" thing.

[The Shoveler]

...alright, I think I've got a plot going. I've had to scrap every single bit of my last plot for this one, but I think it's worth it. :smallbiggrin:

Remember, Badass Normal (can stretch some characters into the power scale by limiting them) for my game and two per person. I hope this goes well. :smalleek:

[darkblade]

How would the RED Team from Team Fortress 2 work for your game?

There might be issues with there being nine of them and some of them (namely the Spy and Engieneer) pushing the power level a bit but they only really work as a full unit.

[The Shoveler]

Depends on which side they're on. If they're against the vampires/lycans then I can fit them in. There is one villain who isn't quite normal and could handle them, so I could put them into Team 2 (Three teams. Yay!) for the game.

If they are with the vampires/lycans, then I could fit them in against Team 2.


It's up to you what side they're on, but I'd allow them.

(Engineer, Heavy, Pyro, Sniper, Scout, Spy, Soldier, Demoman, and Medic, right?)

[darkblade]

They can go on whatever side you want them to be on. I'm not picky.

[The Shoveler]

Alright, depending on which groups I form from the characters that people play will effect whether or not they are hired for good or for evil.

I need to get a working character list. I've got Darkblade down. I can't quite remember who everyone else wants to play, however, so I need y'all everyone to post their characters up here. I'll write them down this time, I swear. :smallsmile:

[Colesign]

Is this the game after Darkblade's, or after Doliest's, or at the same time as the two?:smallconfused:

[The Shoveler]

My game is after Darkblade's. Doliest is going to have his game run at the same time as the current one. So when this game ends, mine begins. :smallsmile:

EDIT: Doing research on something and...
http://pink.reveries.info/public/transvideogame/bridget.gif
THAT'S A GUY?!?!? :smalleek:

EDIT 2.0: More relevant to my game... for darkblade's eyes only.
Red Team is working for the Volturi as hired mercenaries to protect them from Team 3. Does that sound good?

[darkblade]

Yes, Bridget is a guy who crossdresses as a nun Guilty Gear is a weird series isn't it?

That arrangement with the Red team is acceptable.

[industrious]

...alright, I think I've got a plot going. I've had to scrap every single bit of my last plot for this one, but I think it's worth it. :smallbiggrin:

Remember, Badass Normal (can stretch some characters into the power scale by limiting them) for my game and two per person. I hope this goes well. :smalleek:

Moon Knight sort of straddles the line between Badass Normal and Badass Abnormal, since it's never made clear whether his enhanced strength is via divine blessing or self-hypnosis. Is he insane or inspired?

And I'm definitely picking the Gene Genie for your game, then.

"**** no! And stop ripping off lines from Doctor Who episodes!"

Y.T. sprays Christabella with Liquid Knuckles again. "Where the heck are we going, Rex?" She shouts.

Ahhh paradox!

[The Shoveler]

Alright, you still have one more character. Moon Knight is cool, so if you want to play him I'll put him in team 1. We need someone like him on that team...

[darkblade]

Yes the birds are magic and can breathe in space.

[industrious]

I'm playing Moon Knight and Gene Hunt.

[Colesign]

I don't object to Seaton having a space-based menace to deal with.

It's just that magic space-going birds have this to deal with (http://www.projectrho.com/rocket/basicdesign.php).

[darkblade]

I don't object to Seaton having a space-based menace to deal with.

It's just that magic space-going birds have this to deal with (http://www.projectrho.com/rocket/basicdesign.php).

I assumed they would have to deal with that.

Also their magic lets them ignore science and just be giant birds in space. It's magic, I don't have to explain it.

If it helps (and you know what I'm talking about) imagine they operate on Spelljammer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spelljammer) logic.

[Colesign]

Okay. According to Spelljammer logic, they would carry a pocket of air and heat with them into space, and they can magically propel themselves through the vacuum.

Does this mean that they just happen to be giant birds that can survive and move through space in much the same way that they fly through the air, or that they become much more powerful in Space?

[darkblade]

They are giant birds that have the aproximent power of F-15s either in space or in the air. They don't get anymore powerful than they are normally in space.

[Colesign]

Okay. Thanks for clarifying, and for dealing with my nitpicking with dignity and grace.

[Gulping]

NOTES AND EXPLANATIONS:

What Twilight and Tetsuo are doing is basically turning the floor in front of them (where Dimtri and his gunmen are standing) into a tsunami, which will hopefully bury their enemies in rubble and linoleum and allow them to make a break for it.

The Ursa Minor is an actual thing from My Little Pony. It's taller than a house, and that's when it's on all fours. An adult, appropriately referred to as an Ursa MAJOR, is apparently the size of a f**king MOUNTAIN, as it is sufficiently large enough to cradle the Minor in one paw.

As for the Chaplain Corps being equivalent to Navy SEALS, well, they're guaranteed to be ludicrously effective against the Red Court, and are probably decent enough against any other supernatural threat. Might as well make them as good as possible.

[industrious]

As for the Chaplain Corps being equivalent to Navy SEALS, well, they're guaranteed to be ludicrously effective against the Red Court, and are probably decent enough against any other supernatural threat. Might as well make them as good as possible.

But why, if the Chaplain Corps are so effective, haven't the Red Court been destroyed already? There has to be some reason why they've been allowed to grow and fester for so long.

[Colesign]

I'll tell you why: god-damned Magic Pterodactyls!:smallmad:

Probably also that the Red Court have the mystical equivalent of deadman bombs. Think about the giant bloodline curse they were able to pull off in "Changes".

[Gulping]

Also, sheer numbers. Each Chaplain represents thousands of hours in training, and an equally significant amount of monetary investment. There ain't that many of them, and even though they're good against the Red Court vampires themselves, they're somewhat less amazing against the chimeric abominations that the RC likes to bring in.

There are specialized powersuits, but they're still in development and will likely be just as expensive and time-consuming to produce as the Chaplains themselves are in comparison to normal suits and soldiers.

A good eighteen percent of the Defense budget goes into the Chaplains and the armor that's being made for them. This the third largest single expenditure on the U.S. Armed Forces' books.

The other two big expenditures are 'Border Security' (which includes not just land borders, but the ocean as well) and 'Iron Bomb Development' (A WMD specifically for killing Sidhe).

[I am pulling these numbers completely out of my ass, obviously enough]

Weirdly, Defense spending overall is DOWN, primarily because President Wilson publicly stated that graft is equivalent to treason, and will be punished appropriately.

The prices paid by the Pentagon went WAY down after that announcement.

[doliest]

Well, I'm back bruthas! :smallbiggrin:

No more once a day updates, for all most of that sneaky college work is done! We've still got finals, but almost none of my classes have an exam! HALLELUJAH! Just gotta pass History and I will CELE-E-BRATE!

[darkblade]

But why, if the Chaplain Corps are so effective, haven't the Red Court been destroyed already? There has to be some reason why they've been allowed to grow and fester for so long.

Tell me what is the state of true faith in the Transmetropolitan future?

That is why.

Edit: I neglected to mention before but Lelouch and his sisters Euphimia and Nunally have an suspiciously incestious looking relationship (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/BrotherSisterIncest/CodeGeass). While I personally don't interpet it that way it is something Spider will almost certainly bring up in his insults.

[Gulping]

The MLS is an actual weapon in Metal Wolf Chaos, and is a reference to the King's Field series that were From Software's earliest games. The Moon Light Sword has since appeared or been referenced in almost every other game they've made, appearing as high level beamswords in Armored Core, the ultimate weapon in Otogi, and as a special weapon in Demon's Souls.

http://i.imgur.com/PahdK.jpg

It looks about the same each time it shows up.

It's worth noting that the Metal Wolf version works like a bazooka, firing waves of electric death at enemies. I'm using it as a regular melee weapon, because honestly, that is just silly.

[Draxx]

I'd like to apologize. I've had a lot on my plate, and had trouble getting into character. But let me correct that now.

Edit: Gulping, I'd like to say that V probably doesn't consider Andrew his problem, since he was fairly elected. So he'll be fine with him as long as he doesn't get in his way. He might even want to cut a deal.

[Colesign]

Wait, did V just cut Marcus to pieces with Monomolecular wire? Like Walter?

[Draxx]

Nah, he just used one of his knives.
Being who he is, he couldn't just kill the man and send his head to Aro, he needs to go further. So he set up a complex scene in a warehouse, with about thirty mannequins all dressed identically, controlled with wires like the better class of puppets. Then he set it up so he was set up the same way, and by moving the strings on the others would all move in an identical way, so they'd be indistinguishable.

[Colesign]

You make my head hurt, Draxx.

...And it hurts.:smallfrown:

[doliest]

Draxx? Those are some of the most beautiful words committed to forum. :smalltongue:

[Cracklord]

That's pretty crazy, even for V. I mean, that's just...
Why?

[Colesign]

You know, the puppetry scheme you've implemented with V is really, extravagantly complicated: it would probably be easier if V simply cooked up some robotic duplicates or something...


...hmmm. V-bots. That would be really out there.

[Gulping]

Yeah, that post was actually written up hours ago, but I had to go deal with something, so it just sat there until just now.

[industrious]

Nah, he just used one of his knives.

I can totally see him doing that.

V is all about theatricality. He's like the White Court, only inverted. If it isn't needlessly complex, impractical, and flashy, then he isn't going to bother doing it.

[Colesign]

Speaking of which, whatever happened to the White Court? If my guess is right, they're lurking in all the First World Countries, backstabbing and screwing people and turning them into love slaves in the most vile manner possible.

[darkblade]

They're dead. Instead of using Maggie for the Bloodline curse they used Thomas (and modified the magic so it kills both the human and demon parts of him) which kills the entire Wrath Family and a large chunk of the other families. The remnants went to war with themselves over who would take power but were wiped out by the other factions before anything could come over it.

[Colesign]

Wow...

Frankly that's one of the more ****ty possible outcomes of the Raid on Chichen Itza.

So Dresden probably died, Ramirez joined the Justice League for a bit before disappearing to the Nightside with the Order of the Tower, and Molly Carpenter went gonzo, took up the Blackstaff, merged the Knights and Council together and formed the Holy Brittanian Empire from "Code Geass": except it has Wardens.

...It's surprisingly possible.

[darkblade]

The events of Changes were all happening during the last game when Harry was running through the multiverse so the raid never even took place. Martain is quite bitter about the whole thing.

[industrious]

Ironically enough, Damian and Terry are half-brothers. Pity nobody knows that.

[darkblade]

That was intentional.

[Murkus]

Darkblade, Shoveler, anyone mind filling me in on the latest developments with Azzie, Deadpool and the Major? I hope you didn't manage to wrap up the whole plot in the two days I was offline.

[The Shoveler]

Sorry, I had an update planned but the teacher made me turn off the laptop for a quiz. :smallredface:

The Major slipped into the sewers and the post explains the rest. That's about it.

[darkblade]

Darkblade, Shoveler, anyone mind filling me in on the latest developments with Azzie, Deadpool and the Major? I hope you didn't manage to wrap up the whole plot in the two days I was offline.

The Major and Corrin have slipped into the sewers. Deadpool is offering a truce and Icarus (Nanobot's AI PC) has ghost hacked one of your possesed agents.

[industrious]

Just realized who this game needs (too late).

...hmmm. V-bots. That would be really out there.

That's not symbolic unless I start quoting 1984 and existentialist philosophy. Which I might, but I'm not at the moment. Right now I am quoting Phantom of the Opera and and social contract theory, with a little bit of Nietzche thrown in, and some good old fashioned biblical analogies.
Yes, V is hard to write, good of you to notice.


I can totally see him doing that.

V is all about theatricality. He's like the White Court, only inverted. If it isn't needlessly complex, impractical, and flashy, then he isn't going to bother doing it.

Yeah, I can too. Which makes it all the scarier that you note that this man, who is competent enough to break into the house of some of the most paranoid and well protected people int he country and kill them over an hour long period while re-enacting a holy mass or the like...
That doesn't really need any extrapolation, does it?

[Colesign]

I was thinking more of Doctor Doom and his Doom-bots.

And why would you need 1984 when you've got V for frickin' Vendetta?

Otherwise, I applaud your brilliant portrayal of V: I vote for more Anarchist quote!:smallbiggrin:

[Draxx]

Thank you. I'm thinking I'll go after Doom next. Then Klaus.
Now, I could stage a lab accident. That would be easy after all, replace water with nitroglycerin or something, and problem solved.
But given I'm V, I'll have to do something more intricate.

[darkblade]

Because is essentially the least original person in existance a good 90% of his dialouge in the graphic novel with the exception of his introduction too many V words speach was ripped off from literature and philosophy.

[Draxx]

Because is essentially the least original person in existance a good 90% of his dialouge in the graphic novel with the exception of his introduction too many V words speach was ripped off from literature and philosophy.

Yeah. Which is an important part of his portrayal, of course. He's not a man, he's an idea, a shared dream that all the men know and feel.

'Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste. My dialogue? No, my little Darkblade, not mine. The words are, before me and after me, before you too.'

[LoneMage210]

Yes I'm aware Sutherlands don't come with bulit-in Chaff but well, having a Cellphone conversation while trying to avoid triggering a disaster is a laugh...

[darkblade]

Yeah my original intent of having C.C. stay with V was to contrast him with Zero/Lelouch who had many of the same goals and methods but were about the emotions behind the ideas more than the ideas themselves.

Of course since no one else here watched Code Geass, I'm the only one getting anything out of it.

[Corvond]

Who is taking the next Lynching Game? And, would whoever it is, be willing to let me play:

[LoneMage210]

I've seen the show somewhat but not quite all of R1, so something feels missing when I do my actions (such as the Smoke Grenade dispenser, I think Sutherlands have it as Optional equipment...)

[The Shoveler]

Yeah, I'm doing the next game. I've got one requirement for characters: Badass Normal.

For some reason I doubt that a polar bear with armor is anything approaching Normal.

[Prime32]

Yeah, I'm doing the next game. I've got one requirement for characters: Badass Normal.

For some reason I doubt that a polar bear with armor is anything approaching Normal.No, the Panzerbjorn are definitely Normal. You must be confusing them with URSA ARCADIUS, DUKE OF THE HIGHBEARS!

[doliest]

No, the Panzerbjorn are definitely Normal. You must be confusing them with URSA ARCADIUS, DUKE OF THE HIGHBEARS!

ARCHDUKE of the high bears, you foolish none ARCHDUKE OF THE HIGHBEARS!

[The Shoveler]

Huh, I thought it was URSA ARCADIUS, ARCHDUKE OF THE HIGHBEARS.

I've actually never read Golden Compass thanks to propaganda. :smalltongue:

[doliest]

Well that and it's just not that good. It's mildly interesting, but I never found it that engaging.

[Prime32]

I've actually never read Golden Compass thanks to propaganda. :smalltongue:Yes, both The Golden Compass and Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone are terrible. I recommend Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and Northern Lights instead. :smallwink:

[darkblade]

Yes, both The Golden Compass and Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone are terrible. I recommend Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and Northern Lights instead. :smallwink:

To be fair the Golden Compass is a much better name than Northern Lights which sounds like a documentary about the Auroa Borealis.

[Prime32]

The strange thing was how they didn't change the name of the movie back outside the US.

[doliest]

Northern Lights is a really bad title for a film-as Darkblade pointed out, it sounds like a bad documentary. :smalltongue:

[Colesign]

Oh ****! The Red King's Holding his wife and son hostage!

The last time an enemy managed to hold family hostage was when Mark "Blackheart" DuQuesne took over the Earth. It didn't end well for DuQuesne. Mainly because Seaton has well-oiled reflexes worthy of Roland of Gilead, and is a student of the Mal Reynolds school of hostage negotiations.

[LoneMage210]

Well whoops, I'm in trouble... but I wonder if anyone's going to see the flares because this is the part where everything goes to hell on my end...

[darkblade]

You do know that you don't have to keep screwing yourself over like this?

[LoneMage210]

Sorry, been under a mode that goes "No matter how many screw-ups, it'll work out in the end..."

Let's see if anyone saw the flares for a brawl...

[Gulping]

The Air Force One is Michael's personal plane, and is used for everything from diplomatic missions to combat deployments.

In terms of capabilities, imagine that the Concorde, B-2 Stealth Bomber, and B-52 Flying Fortress were all mashed together into something that is virtually indistinguishable from an ordinary passenger airliner. Now give it a camouflage system that can make it look like an ordinary passenger airliner, or a cloudless sky, or a stray chunk of some big heavy-ass cumulonimbus. The plane can look like whatever it NEEDS to look like. Air Force One is a scary piece of kit.

Jody controls the plane, remotely operating it from her command center in the hangar down in the White House's basement. She basically just tells it where to go and what to do when it gets there, and the automated systems handle the rest.

There's a manual override available so that Michael can take control of the ship in case of emergency. He can also summon the plane to come to his current position whenever he needs to be extracted. He can't steer the thing, though. Otherwise, he'd do noting BUT fly around and right wrongs with the power of his amazing robot suit.

The thought is admirable, but there is more to being President than traipsing across the continent in your absurd superplane and smashing evil wherever it springs up.

[darkblade]

Doliest are you trying to get Christabella killed? She doesn't control the town so she isn't immortal anymore and YT and Rex can both easily kill an evil small child.

[doliest]

No no, I need to edit in the last sentence. I'm getting really bad reception here so I'm posting in bursts.

Edit: Yeah, my college reception jumps around. It's one of the many things that slows down my posting.

[Colesign]

I just checked the TV Tropes page, and found to my delight that "Vampyr Assassin" has an entry!:smallbiggrin:

This is gratifying on many levels. It'll be interesting to learn how many tropes we used in that game:

Anticlimax boss, shout out, Expy, Too Dumb to Live, Remember When You Blew Up a Sun, Cool vs. Awesome, Summoning Magic, the Power of Rock, Ninjapiratezombierobot....

That's all I can think of at the moment.

[The Shoveler]

Holy Hand Grenade, Gun Akimbo/The Gunslinger, Rule of Cool, Cool Shades, Everything's Deader With Zombies, and many others if I can remember them.

Hooray for TvTropes! Saving many a life with their witty trope labeling system. :smallbiggrin:

[darkblade]

Technically those would be Captain Erstraz not Expy unless you also created the characters you are ripping off.

[Prime32]

Technically those would be Captain Erstraz not Expy unless you also created the characters you are ripping off.The definitions were changed. Now it's
Expy (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Expy): based on another character
Captain Ersatz (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CaptainErsatz): obviously supposed to be another character, with minor details changed to avoid lawsuits

[Draxx]

Here is what these words mean:
Mene: God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end.
Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.
Peres: Your kingdom is divided and given away.

Now that's what I'm talking about. The first act of Graffiti was by God, on the wall of the palace of Belshazzar. And V does his thing.

[industrious]

Additional Tropes for Vampyr Assassin: The Internet is for Porn, You Fail Logic Forever, Are You My Mummy.

[darkblade]

I'm going to wait on Gilgamesh and Klaus before I move along V and Doom.

Same goes for Wilson before advancing with Seaton.

[industrious]

What about Terry and Spider?

[darkblade]

What about Terry and Spider?

I completely missed your post with them somehow and will update them right now.

[Colesign]

Also Let's Split Up, Gang, Memetic Badass, refuge in Audacity, Crazy Enough To Work...

I did cram a lot in, didn't I?

[darkblade]

Colseign you are not changing ships and then flying from the US to the middle of South America and arriving at the Pyramids before Wilson who was less than a mile away when you left. I don't care how fast your ship is I am saying no to that.

[Colesign]

Whoops. I was power-gaming, and you rightly pointed that out. I apologize, and I'll edit.

I didn't realize that Wilson's plane was less than half a mile away either.

[Gulping]

The Diving Shield thing is meant to protect the Metal Wolf from both the heat of atmospheric re-entry and the impact of striking the Earth's surface. The latter is accomplished through retro-rockets, inertial dampeners, and a contra-gravity system.

It's also very resistant to bullets, explosives, and particle beam shots. The problem is that it's simply too large and cumbersome to use in combat, and the armor and systems necessary for it to work for its intended purpose mean that there's no room for any integrated weaponry. It's pure defense.

[darkblade]

While everything you have done so far has been mostly logical and reasonable if unusual, I am left with one question. Is there anything that Richard Seaton cannot do?

[Gulping]

Truly revive the dead, find his family, or not nuke Britannia's capital until it's a glowing glass basin.

I'm not sure if this warrants a 'HEY-O' or not, mainly because I can't be sure whether or not this is a joke.

[doliest]

Eat Moar Chiken?

Defeat Baba Yaga?

[industrious]

To be on the crueler and more realistic side: Save his wife and child.

I'm waiting for V to speak before Spider posts.

[Colesign]

While everything you have done so far has been mostly logical and reasonable if unusual, I am left with one question. Is there anything that Richard Seaton cannot do?

He can't do magic. There's that. And that Britanian anti transmission spell really crimped his style.

He...doesn't have super strength either. Unless he's projecting one of those 5th Order holograms.

[Cracklord]

The Eldritch Abominations from Below are invading?

This looks like a job for Aquaman!


http://www.nunoxei.com/LOAH/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Outrageously_Lovecraftian_by_MK01-515x434.jpg

Fine, but only if it's Aquaman doing it. Otherwise, not a chance.

[darkblade]

I'm waiting for V to speak before Spider posts.

Draxx posted with V. He's waiting for Spider to give him more information before speaking, he's not going to give something like confirmation about C.C. for free.


He can't do magic. There's that. And that Britanian anti transmission spell really crimped his style.

That wasn't a spell but badly explained tech from Code Geass. It also shut down the limited tech the Red Court had over the Pyramid.

[doliest]

Sorry, not trying to rush along, but is anything happening in the Dreamworld? :smallredface:

[darkblade]

Spider is currently on an airplane halfway between Volleretta and the City, do you want a do over with Gilgamesh doing something else or to investigate Spider's apartment?

[Cracklord]

Ah. I'll do that.

Then I'll intercept the old fashioned way.

[industrious]

But Spider's in the air right now. How can they be near him if he's on an airplane?

[Cracklord]

Easy.
Spider's going to Volterra, which is where Gilgamesh is. Klaus is the most important man in Europe, and Gilgamesh is his son.
One phonecall and they'd tell him which plane he's on. I mean, wouldn't you?
And as the Baron's army is transported around in giant combat capable zeppelins that go faster then the speed of sound, he just takes one of them, follows the route Spider is taking, shines a search light on the plane and says 'you're coming into Europa, this is a routine randomly taken out search, if you refuse we'll blow you out of the sky.'
He's a tyrant, remember. He makes the rules.

Bada Bing, Bada Boom.

No he's leaving Volleretta...I'm just going to chalk it up to some kind of spark tech because I have no immediate hooks for Spider.
