lucas marcone (Red Anvil (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,3261.msg143079.html#msg143079))
Retired Players:
Fex (Gentan (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,3261.msg146252.html#msg146252))
Players who never actually joined:
Rammenstien
mk1221
SpikeSinistralofSacredness
We have more people who thought they'd join and didn't than ones actually playing! Argh!
EDITED:
Techmaster-Glitch here. If you are an RP'er here, you may have noticed, if not necessarily followed, the Villain's League RP threads. Due to their RP's current situation, the Villains lack any real opposition to their dastardly plans, not even themselves (Hey, they're villains, they're supposed to try to backstab each other, but it's way too early for that :P) This is where the Hero's League comes in. So, we have this thread for character postage, but all our action will be done in the Villain's IC thread, which Miaka probably will rename.
So, post you hero here.
Basic Skeleton:
Name
Age
Gender
Race/Species
Appearance
Background/Origin
Powers
Weaknesses
Behavior
Motivations
Misc.
(Because the Villains actually have several supergenius characters, we need one as well, but only one. That position will be first-come-first-serve. Reason: We need one to balance it out a bit, but any more and this will become nothing but a bunch of intellectuals yammering quantum theories at each other :B Though I like that, it's just gonna screw the fun in this RP. And Rammenstien, if you do go with that elemental, my character can't come to get you personally. That would be favoritism.)
Miaka has her own character in the Villains, as well as the NPC who called them all together. I'm going to have my character who will gather anyone who joins as well. Here he is:
Name: Quaddle
Age: Somewhere around 1,200
Gender: Male
Race/Species: Looks human, but once you fight him it becomes screamingly obvious that he isn't.
Appearance: His form is that of a teenager somewhere around 19-22, hiding his true age. He invariably wears an unmarked red full body fitting robe-like outfit. The forearms and lower legs of the outfit have a slight bell-shape or conical shape to them, opening in circles at the ends. It also has a hood. Clasped around his neck is a straight cape the same color as the rest of his outfit. His only accessory is a long brown staff with a pure white orb closed at the end. It is nigh-unbreakable, and he never parts with it, except when he is keeping hidden and waiting for great Evil to surface.
Background/Origin: He was born sometime just before the Medieval Age, and he made most of his appearances during that time. He is a Planet-Guardian, an archmage of great power. And topping only just above twelve thousand years old, he's actually the youngest Planet-Guardina in the entire Universal Order of Guardians. Though he knows that evil manifests itself in every dark corner of the world, he doesn't engage in a near-impossible crusade to eradicate it entirely. He knows that there is also always good that opposes said evil, and he lets the forces balance each other out. He only comes forth from hiding when he knows that Evil has gathered in great force, and means business. This is one of those times.
Powers: Being a twelve-hundred-year-old archmage, he has had much time to hone his Guardian abilities. He has a near-limitless varied arsenal of spells and magic skills, from cheesy-minor to uber-freaking-major. This makes him quite unpredictable, as you never know what spell he is going to do next. He also isn't too shabby with wielding his staff as a melee weapon; he's actually quite good at it.
Weaknesses: Despite his power, he is not by any means invincible; very far from it. In fact, he was born because the previous Planet-Guardian of Earth was murdered. He channels his very soul-force through his staff to cast magic. He can perform any minor things at will, but for a major attack, he has to stop and actively pour his energy into the staff to charge it; he is quite vulnerable during this time as it takes enormous concentration, even for him. Also, nearly all of his magic is in his staff: if it is separated from him, he becomes basically helpless, only able to cast the most absolutely simple of magics. Also, for some reason, while he can wield his staff as a melee weapon with impressive strength and finesse, if he throws a normal punch or kick, it will have virtually no power behind it whatsoever. He has not even figured out why this is.
Behavior: He looks like he is just getting out of his teenage years, and has a superficial attitude to match. He is very upbeat, talks with great enthusiasm, and has a cockiness that would shame a story-book cowboy. Beneath his typical-teenage exterior however, is a man who fully knows his responsibilities, and doesn't often act without thinking, despite that is how he appears to act.
Motivations: Being born as a Guardian, he automatically has an innate personality for good, even though he doesn't try to right every wrong in the world. He knows that would be a near-impossible ask, but he has an even better reason: he fully knows the absolute importance of balance: Good and Evil must balance each other out; if one ceases to exist, so will the other, creating nothing.
Misc: He has quite an appetite for ice cream.
*whew* I think that's it for now...
... surely the Villains, by the sorts of people they're supposed to be, would be sneaky enough to come here anyway?
Maybe I'm just cynical... ;-]
Allright. All that's removed. New simple plan.
Yay! Heroes! *Dances* Here be the first hero, not including Tech-Dude's.
Name: Ram "Electrifier" Ei'Sona
Age: Ageless
Gender: Male
Race/Species: Lightning Elemental
Appearance: In his fully natural state, Ram looks like nothing more than a vaguely-humanoid mass of electrical energy. However, he is able to freely assume a human form, using no effort to remain in said form.
In his human shape, Ram is roughly 6' tall with a fit, muscular body. His skin is pale, though not so much that he appears unhealthy. His hair is long, around six inches, and a tan-blonde in color on top while the sides and back are black. It is naturally swept back into a number of large, graceful spikes on the top, the back is laid down and reached halfway down his neck, and his bangs seem to defy gravity as they extend about an inch upward, bend and separate into several groups that extend outward with a slight downward angle. His eyes are electric blue and have gold lightning-bolt patterns extending outward from his pupils to the edges of his iris. His left ear had a gold earring in it, and he wars a gold necklace with a quarter-size pendant on it.
Ram wears a deep, deep blue button-up shirt with four large buttons in the front with the same color pants. Probably his most distinguishing feature is the amount of metal he wears. On his right thigh he wears a sort of metal plate, while the other thigh has a similar plate with a sort of blue covering. Around his left bicep he wears a stud armlet, and on both arms he has bronze-colored, fingerless metal gauntlets that extend to cover his entire forearm, stopping just short of his elbows. He does not wear shoes.
Background/Origin: Ram doesn't really have much of an origin. He has existed for countless eons, although most of that time was spent sealed away. He has only been released for short periods of time when his assistance was required by the Planet-Guardians.
Powers: Ram, being an Elemental of Lightning, has the ability to freely generate and manipulate his element.
Weaknesses: Magnetic Fields - While in his human form, Ram receives a slight disruption from magnetic fields. Weak ones will disrupt the electricity flowing through him, causing him to lose his ability to finely control his abilities, causing them to be less focused. Strong magnetic fields will either cause him to be badly overpowered, causing him to harm himself, or severely weakened. While in his fully natural state, he is completely subjected to the whims of strong magnetic fields.
Water – While in human form, water can cause shorts within Ram's body, causing him to possibly harm himself. While in his natural state, water will cause him to bleed energy and become weakened as it conducts electricity away from him.
Behavior: Ram, due to his element, is a somewhat chaotic and spontaneous individual. He will pick up strange quirks, drop them later, then pick up all new ones. He follows his own whims a lot, which can sometimes get on people's nerves.
Motivations: Ram is, being an elemental, motivated by the simple idea of balance between all things, especially good and evil.
Misc.: Ram, even though he has been sealed away from a long time, is a complete natural with the electric guitar. He also has a good singing voice.
Charcater approved, Rammy. Though, I hope Miaka doesn't think this is too much. It might be, but even if it is, I've got backups.
One note: Your character, even though summoned by the previous Planet-Guardian of the Earth, won't know the current one. He'll wake up thinking he was unsealed by the Guardian he knew, and at first glance, he'll probably think that Quaddle is the old one, but he'll figure out quickly that he is not the same. Though it might be all right if he reminices just a little about the good fights he had with the old Guardian.
And why is anyone barely even reading this thread? Heroes are needed to oppose the Villains in their thread, they said that, not me. Come on, people, I know there are some do-gooders out there.
You did create this thread a few days ago. You can't expect a thousand views. :rolleyes
No, but there should be more than freaking fourty. I mean, come on.
Yes, that sounds good. Very good idea. Reminicence, ahh. Very fun.
The character is a little overpowered, but Heroes are kind of supposed to be.
Ah, i knew it. Wait, which one?
I think Miaka is refering to Ram's guy. Your character seems balanced tech, he kind of reminds me of the Green Lantern. Except that his ring is actually a staff. :P
for the sake of drawing attention and getting this off the ground this is the caracter i would have....techmaster can still say no but here it goes
EDIT
hero:
secret idenity: "If i told you it wouldnt be a secret would it?"
powers:
appearnce:
weaknesses:
strengths:
personality:
im just going to rip one of my city of hero heros.
Yes, we were worried about that. I was hoping that his weaknesses would help to balance him out, since they can cause him to harm himself/become useless. I've tweaked them a bit to make them a little more severe. Hope it helps.
Well I think luc's guys are the only two who really can't affect him on neutral ground(I.E. not a junkyard where there's a magnetic crane).
My character wears a full suit of metal armor, so he's pretty much grounded at all times, and black angel's character can probably shoot cobalt or some other magnetic metal or something. Miaka's character I'm not sure about, it seems like she would do some kind of crazy hug attack of doom. :U
Actually, Lucas, I do have an idea that might--just might--generate a byte more interest, and I plan to put it into effect today. You charcaters is definately worth something, I'll grant you that, but I'd like to see how things pan out. For now, your character is on hold, I will approve only if we remain short of heroes. Stay tuned.
To Xeksue and Rammenstien: That's a good point Xek, it further balances out Ram. Ram, it's a good balance
with what you also have done, I belive it is all good now.
(Basically I'm saying don't try to compensate for what Xek's mentioned)

And that he wears a red hooded robe-like outfit with a cape, not green tights :P
~Le Gasp~
Techy, you wound me! Of course I won't try to 'Compensate'! Every good Hero/Villain needs people they are weak against!
-Edit-
*Grumble grumble* I should pull out EOSOD-Sama on you...
Oh hush. you know I'm just poking you :poke
:P
Yeah, I know.
Come on people, we need more heroes!
Ram and Quaddle can't fight the entire Villain's League by themselves! :3
*quietly whsitles packing up his hero costume.*
i may wish to opt for a diffrent super power set and weaknesses. i realized the wizard dude th elemental AND a floramancer are all kind of similar. i think i'm going to try and diverseify myself from the earth theme i think 2 eath based guys are enough.
Floramancer? That's good...I gotta add that to my list...
hero: red anvil
secret idenity: "If i told you it wouldnt be a secret would it?"
powers: super strength, pyrokenetics, imperviousness(not invalnerable),sharpend sight and smell
appearnce:
skin tone- deep red
hair- long,crimson with black highlights
horns- her hons start set just off the side if the head about midway back point backwards but hook around and emerge from the hair about cheek height.
face- very beautiful, slender and shapely features as such you would find in greekoroman art, her eyes are all black and reflect small amounts of light like a polished onyx stone
torso- she is moderately busty wearing a tight black tee that comes down to a tactical belt. she wears fingerless gloves.
back- her wings are that of a demon. red with black webbing
bottom- loose black cargo jeans
boots- she has hooves insted of feet.
weaknesses: water, spell craft, satan's grip on her consience
strengths: strong and open, she is very likeable and will work with you insted of against you(figuratively). she is strong and can use her hell fire well.
personality:open, friendly, honest, loyal
The new Hero is good, like the last one you came up with. But, *sigh* that still makes only three heroes against the entire Villain's League of nine, Count 'em!, nine Villains, and that's not even counting minions or the big shadow guy!
Even if your charcater get's in alongside Quaddle and Ram, without more allies, we will all need massive power boosts to even the three of us out with the nine of them. And that would unbalance everything. If only three heroes combined can match the power of nine villains combined, we could pick them off one by one on nothing more than a whim...
Come one, anyone (except current Villains), if you read this thread, join!
*thinks* Does anyone know if there's any social interent etiquette or RP etiquette against send PMs to specific people to join an RP?
Well you might come off to them much in the same way spam does on my hotmail account.
If you want I could expand upon the unnamed dude my villian fought awhile ago and make that guy a hero. As it stands I do plan on to bring him back later on for the sake of character development. :rolleyes
I don't know what you have in mind for that kid, but he ever meets up with us, it sounds like he'd just be a minor ally/spy we keep in contact with, not a full-time hero. And that's actually a good thing, if he's under your control as a player. Having just one of the villain players simultaneously play a hero (lucas) is going to be bad enough, and he is my very last resort (albiet one I certainly keep in mind). Having two PCs with a villain and a hero... it just does not work.
Well basically I'd bring him back at some point later like after your guy confronts our guys. Right now I'm kinda getting a Meta-Knight Vibe from him looking back on it, except in reverse, because instead of helping my guy before the fight (Meta-Knight gives a Kirby a Sword) he helped him after the fight (The temporary "ghost" helicopter).
I would like to put up a bios for him somewhere though, I'll probably end up doing that in the Villians OOC.
dude tesch you were worried about not haveing enought heros? at the rate you're fixing problems you'll have us all defeated by the end of the next page!
Not really. there's only one problem he's working on right now: the mutant outbreak. Since he's taking all the villain's by surprise for the first time, one by one, (or two by two, lol) he shouldn't have too much trouble. Once they know who he is and how to fight him, everything will become much tougher. In fact, once he's done with the mutants, one way or another, that's when he's going to retreat.
He also hasn't gotten into an all-out fight with anyone yet. That's when everyone's power will be tossed around. I'm thinking, to make it fair so we don't have players powerplaying over each other, we may have to adopt a comuterized dice-roll system, like Arcalane and Wastelands RP. I'll be talking to Miaka when I see her.
Unless of course, we can make all encounters pre-thought out, and we all agree on which side is going to win which battle, then play like that. It might work, It probably wouldn't.
Or, we could do what I like to call the coin flip method. You flip a coin. Whoever wins will win the fight in the end.
Then there's the simple "He who roleplays best, wins" method. That's the one all the roleplays I'm already in use. Unfortunately, it tends to favor the skilled roleplayers, obviously.
i was just saying. anastasia was working for a long time on that project then in less than a minute you figure out how to reverse it? that's way too powerful for something like this.
He's a twelve-hundred-year-old archmage. Anastasia's well less than a hundred. This kind of thing is trivial to him. The only thing that isn't trivial is the power required to cast the spell multiple times. He's going to have to recharge repeatedly, which leave him open to attack.

Actually, that sort of begs the question. One, he's a mage. What does he know about technology? Secondly, while age can be useful in determining intellect, that's only worth the actual experiences thereof. You're not munchkining, but in my opinion you're heading toward that general area.
He has been hiding among humans for the past three hundred years, he might not be that proficient with this type of thing, but he does get the general gist. And that's all he needs. He just needed to invent a spell that countered the effects specifically and removed the mutagen from the bloodstream. Not that hard with magic.
tisk tisk tisk, techmaster you seem to have made a grave lapse in morality on Quaddle's part. Stan Lee's first rule of being a superhero. "super heros don't kill" especially not some poor shmuch who is a victim of poor circumstance. when you told the S.W.A.T. man to kill any out breaks you basicly told him to commit murder. and that, true beliver, is the diffrence between a hero and a villain.
what i would have done is to tell the S.W.A.T guy to subdue outbreaks with their "nonlethal arsunal". but that's just me.
also though Stan Lee is my hero and a great source of insparation to me, I realize the gray areas of being a hero.
Ah, lucas. I see you're paraphrasing The Iron Giant. :-]
Good movie. Nice plot points. "Guns kill, and you don't have to be a gun."

Well, you have to remember one thing. Quaddle is not neccesarrily a "hero" in the traditional sense. He is a
Planet-Guardian, had he protects the
balance of Good
and Evil in the entire world. In fact, if a massive army of Good assembled to begin a crusade to utterly wipe out all Evil, Quaddle would actually have to stop
them, with force if neccesary. And since he can only concern himself with the balance in the World in general, he simply does not have the
luxury like other heroes to care too much about individuals over the big picture.
In this case, he knew that the virus can spread when an infected person mutates. If the mutated person even claws at a normal person, they become infected. Then the virus will just multiply. All the evacuated people are being directed to the same place. if a mutant outbreak occurs in the middle, and the police don't stop it quick enough, everyone could be lost. Quaddle (and I) both figued that the mutants would be far more resistant to nonlethal things, and to prevent outbreak in the survivors, any mutants must be dealt with quickly and permanently. Better to lose five than a thousand.
Now, if Quaddle was a conventional hero, I'd be playing him the way you said, Lucas.
(Just a P.S.: I loved The Iron Giant too. It was one of my favorite movies when I was younger. Unfortunately, I haven't seen it in awhile :( )
just between you and me that line was from Stan's Who Want's to be a Superhero first season. btw superman is DC and Stan could get sued if he put a refrence in his movies. Iron Giant is Disney.
It's a staple of superhero-ing. Tracing it back to original roots, you'll be looking at the 50's and 60's pulp comics, if not earlier...
Actually, tech, the mutagen isn't contagious. It works only via the water supply. I said myself that they're not zombies. They haven't been making more mutants, the prison was just packed.
Oh...crap. I need to go back and edit.
EDIT: Edited. Line referring to that is now removed.

Wait,
who's she jumping at?
the only lizard of importance in the entire city right now
That's what I thought, but the way you said the sentance grammatically implied me.

When you switch from proper nouns to a pronoun, the pronoun usually refers to the last proper noun mentioned, which in this case, was "the red man".
It's alright, I'm not the grammar police, and you don't have to edit, I know what you mean. All's well.
I noticed that you have not enough people so I plan to join ... if I can ofcourse ^^''. though I need to make a char first give me a little while to write down one of my older chars in here so that it fits a bit.
Sure, welcome aboard, Fex :)
hero: Gentan
secret identity: "If I told you it wouldn't be a secret would it?"
powers: He has shadow powers he can do the following with it;
-He can change his body in a shadow (it looks like smoke that is glued against the floor/wall/ceiling but it can take shapes off people and stuff too hide it self) and crawl over the floor or hide in any kind off shadow to get closer to his target.
-He has a second shadow form insted off touching the floor he can float in the air as a smoke cloud. It is to confuse his foe to make think he is in the smoke while he is the smoke.
-He can change parts of his body (like an arm) in an shadow and then change it in a weapons or other stuff that will help to sneak in (he can't change his body in a projectile weapon becouse there has to be a link to the body).
-He can change an arm in a snake like tentacle to see around corners or take out a guard from a distance, the tentacle has 4 large fangs 2 up and 2 down.
-Beside his body he can shift his own shadow in many things, from a whip to an box spring (so that he can dodge fast attacks or enemy projectiles).
-He can shift every shadow (that's not his own shadow) to do an attack with (those can become projectiles and he can create 20 of them in one time) but he can't use it to much after each other becouse he gets tired off it.
appearance:
(http://files.myopera.com/Wsqblackheart/blog/NinjaGaiden%20(18).jpg) (okay I had a block ... AND I was a bit lazy. But he looks like that >.>.
He has an small sword on his back that's an feet long. Two simple daggers, one in his boot and the other on his upper leg. He has 10 ninja stars in a small pocket on his belt. He has these weapons incase his powers don't work or is not capable to use them.
weaknesses:
His biggest weakness is light because his powers are not on full strength in it. His attacks are slower in bright light and he can't use other shadows to attack or defend.
strengths:
His powers are at full strength in the dark and till so far no one could beat him in the dark. He knows much different martial fighting and does lots off yoga, he can bend his body in strange poses thanks to the yoga, he can move much faster then any average person and reacts faster too.
personality:
He is someone that will not give up fast but he knows when to run. He will never abandon someone he cares about. He can be a bit quiet around strangers but when he knows them he can be very open. He likes to joke from time to time and will most likely put an harmless booby-trap on places you would not expect them to find them.
Bio:
Gentan got trained in a hidden school some where deep in the mountains. There he got trained in many different kind off martial arts styles and he had to combine them to create his own styll. After many years off training he became the best fighter on the school. Just when they wanted to make him a teacher he left the school to see what was out side the mountains and to learn more fight stylls.
While traveling through the mountains he fell in a hole that was coverd by snow. He woke up after a few hours and his whole body hurted from the fall but he was lucky that he had not broken something. When he looked up he saw an old shrine and on it was a black globe.
He crawled to it, becouse he was in to much pain to walk, to see what it was just when he got in touching range the globe shined before it melted and started to cover him. He tryed to pull and rub it off but it didn't work and everything became black when his head got covered.
When he woke up again he noticed the black stuff was gone and that the pain was almost gone too. He walked slowly to the hole in the cave and by accidently his arm became a shadow when he tried jumping to it. This scared him for a second but he found it interesting too.
After a while he started to get it how it worked and he got the idea to train in the cave till he could controle it with no problem. After a few months off training he left the cave and left the mountains far behind him.
It toke him a day or two to reach a town and from there he asked directions to a city. Some people in the town told him about a city that had some criminal problems and they told him to stay away from it. He said that he would not go to it but he did it any way becouse where people fight there needs someone help.
yay done. though if he is to strong say please so that I can change some stuff. oh before I forget I always get confused with the a/an, to/too so if you see me make one off those errors please tell they are kinda hard for me ^^''
to help you out ill give you the grammer ruleings on those words.
an is used when there is a vowel at the beginning of a word, A,E,I,O,U esample an apple, an escape(as a dirty stinkin ninja you'll probably use this a lot)
a is used when there is a consonant, any other letter example a pirate(yarr :)) a car
to is used with verbs (action words) example he rocked to the break of day.
too is used when describeing excess. example, there were too many ninja trying to attack the lone pirate. he has too much fun
hope that helps.
also you're a bit veague about you shadow powers
I will try to make it better when I am back
*edit*
okay done with the changes I hope you guys can understand it now =3
*edit edit*
the a and an make sence and I get it but I still don't get the to and too >.>''
I think you're charcater will work.
A shadow warrior working for the light? (metaphorically speaking) That's interesting...
The only problem is he might not work too well with Quaddle, as he is an archmage, and all his spells are bright and flashy :P
only becouse he has shadow powers doesn't mean he can't be good. an element does not say anything about a person only what he is capible off. though he is really good in infiltrating in enemy's bases and get secret information or sabotage the place.
so when does the heroe IC start?

so when does the heroe IC start?
The heroes IC is in the same thread as the villians IC, its where they fight each other and etc.
And your right element means nothing, it's the person behind the element that matters. Look at luc's hero heh.
alright I will make a post =3
Hey fex, you prolly should read back a few pages, to my first post as Quaddle, at least. You should then get a pretty good idea at what's been going on and what he (and others) can do.
Also,

After a little while he reached where the light should have come from and he noticed a guy on a disk floating in the air.
Quaddle is actually collpased on the ground, struggling to stay concious if you were to read back just a little.
And he flys on
two small disks made of gold light attached to his feet :P
And the light was more like a blinding explosion. I put a lot of description into it, and everyone seems to be watering it down to nothingness :<
It's a lost art, it is...
ooops I will change that ^^''
Alrighty, just a notice, my presenace for a few hours was only temporary. Anyone who's seen my in a few other thread probably know that I've been having problems recently. I have to go now, any further log ons will probably be short and sporadic, until either Tuesday or Friday.
Life sucks :<
yeah I hear ya. hang in there man.
:shifty
Hey ive read the whole forum this sounds very interesting....
Do you mind if i join?
:eager
...
Come up with a hero, post it, and I'll consider.
No promises.
Chanes are still fairly good, though.
Also, if you take a look at some of my recent posts, I've been having problems with life recently. Post your char, but don't expect an answer until Friday, probably.
if anyone has any questions about the meaning of existance,life and the universe nows a good time for Q&A because as soon as tech comes back and is done playing with "The voice" it's gone
Alright.
What is the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything?

Shouldn't Dyslexia really be spelled Lexdysia? So that way people who had it would know what they had.

Quaddle saw Red keeping pace while carring Gentan by his arms. She notices Gentan looking back for a second at her leg. "Eyes forward."
Uh, Lucas? Wasn't Gentan going to turn into his little smoke cloud and follow along the ground?
No I was running after you guys as smoke I am too slow unless a strong wind blows me in the right direction
Oh. That's my bad.
Just an update, Lucas, Fex. I'm not back yet, but I will be tonight, tomorrow at the latest. Just FY.
And Onyour post, Lucas, just need some clarfication/stuff. What 'beam' are you talking about? Do you mean that golden light flash/'explosion'?
Also, just more FYI, we're headed all the way to the Sierra Nevada mountain range. That's where Quaddle's stronghold is. (You'll know what I mean when we get there >:3) I've been assuming that we're on the East Coast, though. I'm planning to get there not until morning, can Red hold that kind of speed and distance? Fex, can Gentan do the same? (oh, he's on the ground, that's gonna be even more difficult...)
nope he has no problems with keeping up and even if he gets behind he launches him self back to the group
we were actually in micigan or how ever Jr Canada is spelled. and yes Red is refering to the Uber light show extravaganza. she's just a bit better with words.
I must have missed that. Who said we were in michigan, and where?
Liz let out a surprised laugh. He wasn't amused, just dumbfounded at the distance between them. "I'm in Michigan, Daemon. We're at least nine hours apart by car." He got his iphone off the nightstand and fiddled around on Mapquest for a minute. "Hang on... let me try and find a good halfway point so neither of us has to waste a whole day hitching rides." There was a pause as Liz scrolled around, looking at city names. "Hmm. Parkersburg, West Virginia. It'd take us each about five hours to drive there. Any ideas on a faster way?"
posted by black angel. Liz has a home in michigan, and they drove to a near by city.
Daemon eventually found the faster way via helecopter to liz's actual home.
Oh, ok.
Is it too late for me to join in?

Ugh. As if I didn't have enough to worry about right now...
Just kidding :B
Have you read the entire Villain's Leage IC thread? (NOT the OOC) If not, you should do that.
Also, After reading the League IC, you really should expand a-LOT on your charcater. Use the skeleton that I provided on the first page:
Quote
Name
Age
Gender
Race/Species
Appearance
Background/Origin
Powers
Weaknesses
Behavior
Motivations
Misc.
Put in plenty of description, and compare your char sheet to everyone elses.
One other thing; you
might need a different character. The character I'm using the the archmage of archmages, thus we have our all-purpose magic covered. We have Rammenstien/Ram Ei'Sona (still trying to get him in), who is the embodiment of lightning/electricty, thus we have our heavy hitter. We have Fex/Gentan, uber ninja who can transform into shadows, thus we have martial arts covered. Then we have Lucas Marcone/Red Anvil, a demon-turned-good, who is highly impervious to most attacks, thus we have our tank.
The only thing we
don't have, (That the Villains have AT LEAST two of, I think three) is a supergenius. That's an open option if you'd like to take it.
Or you can try to come up with something completely original, that would be sweet.
Red might not be a super genius but she isn't a dumb blonde either. in other words should quaddle for some reason be incomasitated she could probably take charge and lead the group well. so long as she doesn't get her battle rage going on.
also spike, think about shortening your forum name. also a closer look at the "sinestrals" might be warrented.
...Unm, Lucas, I never said any of our chars were dumb. I was just saying that we didn't have a supergenius engineer/scientist character.
EDIT: Oh, and by the way, about Spiked's name, even though it's long, we've already got a nickname for him. When he posted his intro thread, llearch made a note of his name and it's length, brought it down to SSS, and started calling him "hissy". Unless he says otherwise, that's what I'll be calling him >:3
Hey i dont mind.
it just looks weird on my screen how it pushes his speach field out 1 1/2 inches without streaching out the page
ok...but are you sure, i kinda do have something in mind a differnt version of Spike.
Name: Spike
Race:Human
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Occupation: Bounty Hunter and Tactican
Powers:Ability to shapeshift and assume the form of anyone useful to hunt down criminals, and used their powers against them and the ability to create powerful weapons just by put together differnt items that people might think is junk, plus since he has an iq of 300 he can think up differnt plans to stop various criminals, one of the main weapons Spike uses is a katana that he forged himself and a silver gun that he loves to use. Spike when in the form of another person has that person's memories and various attributes.
Weakness: Sufric Acid which nullifes his shapeshifting power and reveals his true form when he is in another form and the memories of his parents death haunt him every night.
Behavior: He gets along with everyone and has an iq of 300
Motivations: The only motivation in Spike's life if to protect those in need from evil
Misc: Spike, a bounty hunter has only one mission in life to put those who do evil to justice.
He uses any thing he finds as tools to build weapons but his powers to shapeshift help him to inflitrate any villian stronghold and spy on them. Spike also has a dark secret, his family died in a fire when he was young. He didn't see the person who set the fire but remembers hearing a high pitch laughter. Ever since that day Spike has been searching for the person who killed his family and make them pay. But will his thirst for vegence cloud his sense of justice no one knows for sure. But one thing is for sure that day will arrive soon when Spike meets the killer.
Hm. That works better. Just needs more description...
More description, especially on what exactly he can do/his limits/ ect, would help very much.
Now, I just gotta think of a way to get you in the group...
And just making sure, but you have read the entire Villain's League IC, right?
not yet.
You should. It will give you an idea on how this RP is played.
I read it now so i guess i got a good idea of whats going on.
Daaaaang, you fast, boy!
Or are you just saying you read it? :P
Just kidding. Don't start posting yet, wait for me to guide you in. I gotta think of a way to get you into the RP, unless you've got an idea. In which case, I'm all ears (or eyes, as it were, since we're typing :3)

When I said "expand", I actually meant more in his powers/weaknesses department (look at my char sheet, or Rammenstien's to give you an idea of what it should be like). From what I can tell, he can impersonate anyone he chooses? Ok...what else does than entail? Does he take their powers/strenghts as well, or just their form? Also, how does his weapon creation work? What exactly can he do with that?
yeah and there just has to be other weaknesses other than sulfuric acid. is he afraid of anything? any mental disorders or physical handicaps?
Still waiting for expanded definition of Spike's abilities, hissy...*drums fingers*
fix you maple story link codeing too. you seem to have a few extra vestigeal letter on there
Finally! The Heroes are starting up again!
Heh, you know, I just thought of something funny. You guys have seen the Force Lightning attack the Sith use, right?
Yes, your character can do that, we know. He is the embodiment of electricity, that would be a standard attack in his arsenal :rolleyes
Yes, I know. But I just thought of that. Heh, I can see it now. He can go off with random Star Wars quotes while elecrocuting someone.
"You have no idea of the power of the Dark Side of the Force!"
"Luke... I am your father."
"Always there are two, a master and an apprentice."
"Meesa come too?"
"Luke, I am your father... AND your uncle."
*cough*
Oy, Hissy, a notice for you: I need a highly expanded description of your character, particularly his abilities, or I can't let you in! Come on man, need more info!
yaay we started again *sucks and licks my fingers* god, I love tacos my fingers still taste like them

*Gasp* you forgot a GOOD one! "your lack of faith is troubleing"
"I find your lack of faith... disturbing." you mean?
Yes, I did miss that one. I thought Jar-Jar and Redneck Jedi were disturbing enough.
Ah, there you are , Lucas. I was wondering where you'd disappeared off to...
"The Ordo Malleus has sent us to aid you."
It has nothing to do with Star Wars, but it's still an awesome quote. I love the Grey Knights.
I was visiting family.
I don't know if I should keep waiting for Fex, but a responce at this moment wouldn't mean much. I'll just go ahead and reveal the base now.
Sorry 'bout this you two, but the reason it took me so long to get a reply in was your reactions were a little less than what I was expecting. Especially since neither of you asked how this was hidden...So, I had to improvise :B Please don't hate me too much... :<
Fex, Lucas, you guys gonna reply anytime soon?
not much to reply to. what's going on are you takeing us in the base or letting us dangle?
Both, he is floating everyone toward the base, but he's still got Anvil and Gentan by their feet. I was just thinking that'd you'd put up some sort of a reply saying exactly what your characters would be thinking when Quaddle let them fall, then what they say when he grabbed both of them by their ankles. I'm certain that anyone would have a few -choice- words to say if this happened to them :rolleyes
nah red's just a little annoied but thats about it. hardly worth a whole post.
It is to me, but meh, whatever. I'll move it up in a little while, I'm a bit busy at the moment.
i don't recall if i said i was interested in making a hero or not but hero is a concept character i created a few years back but never really used much. He looks a lot like a spider but was once a human for and different society where they have concurred much of life's problems and where man lived peacefully. Magic and since exists side by side. if you need me let me know
Name: William Eric Boureave (the name form final fantasy tactics)
Age (62)true age unknown as he spent several decades in suspend animation
Gender male
Race/Species living nanotech cluster/ electrical mystic
Appearance more often then not Will am or webs as he is calls is in the appears of very large spider
Background/Origin for anther dimension another time and space a parallel universe where man lived peacefully in space he came form a family of high acclaim. Each of his relatives have shown ability's for magic in the elements. When he was young he was for each had there place
Powers. his nanotech powers are similar to those of hardcase form the ultra verse but he is a lot weaker then hardcase or prime even when he's in his human form. his nanites are part of him and because of his electric and digitals powers, powers that he's long suppressed but that show up in his skill with technology of any short
Weaknesses. Emps and non conductive materials can weaker him or knock him out. Trapping him in glass would be a waste of time as his nanotech body strength and abilities to rearrange nanites ( about half are organic made of his body materials) would let him cut his way of most materials. Stone, glass and ice will take time to cut through (but it he's trapped they he has that time to spend) is he's too weak to simply shatter it. His digital power are under developed and he is unable to take controls of living programs or other nanotech entitles such as Wily's demons. While able to exiles in space for a short time Zero gravity can slow his ability change his form and inhabit his propulsion / speed and strength. His nanotech body builds many of the things that he needs are stored within his external memory this includes plans for several weapons and vehicle modes. His rocket flight mode is energy intensive and speeds in excess of mach 3 puts heavy stress on his body
Behavior despite his Age Webs is still a very much a child in his culture where age 50 is the legal drinking and average life expectancy is 2500 years.
Motivations Webs is running trying to escape his families shadow. He does not want to become an electrical energy mancer or a weather wizard like so many of his family members who have combined mystic energy and since. He spent his years after age 20 attempting to suppress or eliminate his mystic powers. His fleeing led him to build a machine that he hopped would send him to a time that would let him save himself from his cybernetic fate.
Misc. webs arrived on this earth trying to jump back in time in an attempt to prevent the accident that led him to being trapped in a ship with very little power and failing life support. He had begun to use his suppress mystic power to keep the ship charged but it drained him to much and in the end as he passed out he was absorbed by the ships nanotech repair nanites as the ships AI attempted to save him by converting as much of his body into nanotech as tit to. It then placed him in status. The ship then when to low power and broadcast it's distress beacon. When the ship was rescued and powered up and revived him form his status but it was to late for the mystics to undo what the ship had done in it's effort to save it's beloved engineers. Not he lives hit life as part life form part tech entity. He nanotech remembers this and reacts to his will fast as thought in many cases when speed is all that stands betweens life and death.
So this is why I've been catching you checking out our thread... But we're not really open anymore. For you, two reasons.
Well, E, you're already a Villain. That's kind of makes Heroes off-limits for you. The only reason Lucas has both was because when he was putting in his Hero char, he was about the only person doing so. Now, we have about 4 Heroes (one hasn't appeared yet, but only because I haven't gotten to him), versus the 11 Villains (though a few may have dropped out by now, making it maybe 7-9). This, by necessity, has made all the Heroes high-powered. As in, any of the Heroes should be able to take on two Villains simultaneously and come out on top. With everyone-vs-everyone, it should be fairly evenly matched. Additions to the Villains won't upset the balance much, but a Hero addition probably will, unless there's some Villain additions to counteract it.
Those are the two reasons. You're already a Villain, and we don't need any new Heroes at the presant time. Sorry :<
no worries. as i sad he's just a concept charter. on top of that this thread makes and interesting read. have fun and feel free to deal with my expendable nameless spies as you encounter them( they only know who their contacts are and only 3 level or above are protected form mental probes or corruption. it's what kept the mutates spies of mine sane and it's biases on natural biological slightly enhanced so they aren't the only ones of the good doctor's victims to maintain there sanity.) i haven't managed to slip any into you base as i don't know where it i but I'll have the satellites working on it before the hour is out.
reason number three with al due respect, comprehending your character's "powers" was makeing my head hurt :P.
Have you read the PM I sent you, Voyager?
no worries. all and all he has substandard super human strength (he'd lose arm wrestling to aqua man but not batman assuming batman didn't cheat) ( or stronger then captain America but weaker then spider-man kind of thing). his body is pliable like a yellow demon or perhaps forage if you know x-men. he can attempt to control computers and machines while dead machines have a 90 to 95% success rate but if they are alive he will most likely fail. he body before he became part nano was like that of black lighting. his body and this power of part of a blood lint trait in his family well all of them inherited mystic power of some sort or another his simply favor control of machines and influence of the weather.
Because of this things such this the inhibit electricity or use of strength would slow him down if not stop him. he can't go techaman blade on you but he can for a while seem like a mega-man robot master class when he uses his body to form a weapon of attack. blues(protoman), forte(bass) or rock(mega-man) preferably. he's not human anymore but he's not completely a nano robot cluster either.
(and no not yet but i will now before i take a nap)
I am SOOOOOOOOO sorry it has been a bit bussy for a while and I was so tired every day that I kinda forgot about the rp
life happens :)
Lucas, I'm not pleading ignorance, because I did read some of it. I know what happened, I'm just saying that I'm not making it my concern, and that I'm not gonna bother with it.
Like I said, E's the one who came up with a suggestion regarding it, not me. I'm not really a part of it.
(I'm saying this here because this is where our discussion should be)
what i ment was... there was a big theatrical episode right there near quaddle and he just "didn't notice"?
Not 'didn't notice', just plain couldn't see. I'm taking it as pretty much something only your char saw. As for Quaddle wondering about the hammer she got, well, with magic comes hammerspace :P
i stated in that post that everyone saw it....i even left a message ooc about playing with the all knowing voice but ah well what are ya gonna do bout it.
Absolutely nothing :P
I can only say one thing for my no-posting periods and here it comes ... CURSE YOU PERSONAL LIFE *waves fist wild in the air*
Guys, I've been talking to Rammenstien, and I'm sorry to say, but I may have to write him off. He doesn't seem to want to post much, as he's to busy with Gaia. Thus, I have opened the Hero's League again, as we will need at least one more, maybe two, people to join.
So, anyone reading this (except for a Villain), the Heroes are opened again. A type of charcater we don't have is a supergenius (the Villains have two), that would be nice to have. But, you don't have to be if you don't want to, I encourage originality more.
So, step right up, and post a Hero! We have enough room for just one, maybe two, so hurry and be the first!
Just a note, Fex, the guy we are going to get was supposed to be Rammenstien, but as I said, he's been dropped. So we actually aren't going to find anything.
That being said, to anyone reading this (except a Villain), now would be a very good time to join if you want...please...we really need more heroes...
uhm guys I got some bad news. I gotta quit with the rp becouse of study, work and some other stuff. I can't find the time anymore to do so I am really REALLY sorry v.v''
That's ok, Fex. You have to do what you have to do.
And in that case, our need for new Heroes is critical. If ANYONE is reading this, please join. The Heroes can not go on with only two players.
If anyone's still reading this, I have added a char index to the first post as the other RPs are doing. If not to make things more convenient, then to make a point.
Still need some new recruits...very badly...the Hero's League is on the verge of collapse.
tech see about takeing over as player for Ghentan indefinately. maybe he can join back up at a more convienient time
also anyone reading this Please sign up! it's actually a fun rp one you get past the intro.

That's what I've been trying to think about, some way to remove Gentan for the time being. Whether by having him killed off, or simply temporarily disappear, I've having trouble coming up with a way to do that. I can't play Gentan myself, because I'm not Fex (Meaning, I don't know
how to play Gentan because I'm not his player)
This is probably the final call for sign-ups I am going to make.
The Villain's League has been stagnating due to no activity whatsoever on the Hero's end. One of the Villains recently contacted me on this.
If either one is going to survive, the Heroes need more players, badly. We don't even need many, just two or three will do.
If we can re-start the Heroes, the Villains will almost certianly revitialized in responce. They currently only have tow of their players actually active.
So, if you want to be a Hero, and fight for the forces of Good (or at least Neutrality) then check the first post of this thread for a character skeleton, create a hero, and post them!
If you don't, then both the Heroes and the Villains RP will die off. Please, think of the Heroes and Villains!
