[OOC] Deep Ground Online (Hiatus)

[MarshiestMallow]

@KoLit would be interesting...and we should make it happen

[KoL]

@Caits

Indeed, we should go watch Star Wars Episode 46 together. It just depends on the others to make it.

[McFazzer]

I'm interested. If Windel is willing I'll have a crack at this

[Lucius Cypher]

I'm up for shinanigans.

But just to make this fun for everyone, well throw some trouble in Deep Ground too. Give everyone some fun.

[McFazzer]

@Lucius Cypher I expect nothing less from DGO. I expect a grand apocalypse or some other disaster :P

[KoL]

@Lucius Cypher

I'm actually looking forward to those troubles. Now we really just have to wait until we are moved forward to the beginning of today's DGO session. Hopefully, this won't take too long to come.

[Lucius Cypher]

Mostly waiting for reaction posts from everyone. Also figure out if anyone wants to have some midday interactions.

[KoL]

@Lucius Cypher

Actually, on my end I'm just waiting for @TheWindel's reply, since Eris will log in as soon as she gets back home, which will be right after she gives the leave request to Yoshino. So, I might go to it on my next post.

Also, it seems that Retsu will have more work on her back now since Windel said, that Yoshino will ask her to keep an eye on Eris as well. If I was Retsu, I'd ask for I raise, after so much extra work...

[Kitsune]

Why resist?

@Lucius Cypher

Fair point....

BTW, have you ever though about posting while we are moving to lunch time? That's one of the best times to come in.

@KoL

That is what I was planning! IT will be a little generic but eh as long as I am jumped into the RP that is what counts

-Is just waiting for the mighty GM to accept me ;0;-

@Lucius Cypher GM said you should take a look at this.

Name: Kyle Xavier Gorvette

Age: 16

Sex: Male

Appearance:



His skateboard that he uses around the Academy:


Personality: Kyle, outgoing, hyper, happy, upbeat, and generally a happy character. He’s the person you bring around when you want to smile, or just know someone cares enough to try. Also is a big fan of the outdoors, and Deep Ground, if he’s not in class he is either Online, or there. When his room isn’t blaring some sort of music he is probably skating about the Academy. Otherwise don’t go in as he might actually be inside studying. For once.

Though, when Kyle is angered, he is cold, calculating, and downright lethal. His photographic memory and

Backstory: Kyle Xavier Gorvette was born to a middle class family in New York and was given quite a lovely life, though where most kids had an addiction to tons of video games stemming from a want to prepare for the Deep Ground. He belonged on his skateboard, always boarding about the busy streets of the city to pass the days by once the toys at home didn’t entertain him anymore. As he got older he became more outgoing and social, and his parents had gotten quite a boost in the income, so they went over the top and gave him the news: He was going to Purple Crown Academy. He was happy, but also sad, his favorite color was green. So he packed his bags and was taken to the Academy, where he enrolled in the Photography classes, and the Studio Design courses as well. He excels at them so far, actually incorporating his skateboarding into his photography which has lead to some really cool shots, sometimes back home he helped out a local DJ, so he knows a thing or two of that. Also does own a vape, though primarily because it looks freaking awesome, and the flavor is awesome.

Display name: Living Shadow



Level: 3

Class: Rogue, Assassin Archetype

Avatar Guild: None as of yet. Aiming to kill the bounty target to get the level 9 boost and join the Strykers.

Avatar Abilities

Shadow Dancer: Once in combat, activate this ability to give all attacks a gap closer up to 5 yards, attacks also do 20% bonus damage and heal for half the damage dealt. Lasts 15 seconds with a cooldown of 1 minute.

Eternal Shadow: This ability is passive, creating a duplicate of the caster that mimics him for half of an abilities damage and half of basic attacks damage, but they also slow said target for 2 seconds up to 25%. (Shadow Dancer does proc this ability.)

Shadow Step: Teleports the user behind their target if it’s an enemy and attacks immediately. If the target is an ally the caster receives 15% reduced damage for three seconds. 15 second cooldown.

Feats:

Vicious Strikes: Melee attacks do 20% more damage.

@Shadowman215

You cut your personality off right here. I'm assuming there's more?

@Shadowman215

Shadow Dancer is waaaay too loaded. Mobility, DPS, and a HP absorption ability? As a level 1 ability at that? Too much. I'll be fine if you had just one of the three, but not all three.

The wording for Eternal Shadow (And Shadow Step, but I'll get to that one later) seems vague. You say "Caster", but I'm also assuming that Eternal Shadow only works on Living Shadow. Also 2 seconds is too short of a cooldown if that's suppose to be a drawback, because in a combat round it goes like this: 1 post = 1 minute = 1 round. 2 seconds, while important for more split-second decisions, is a drop in the bucket in comparison. I also don't know how Shadow Dancer is suppose to protect against the debuff: It gives you a gap closer, not a speed boost. There's a difference between the two, as one lets you move and react faster, while the other just puts you closer.

Shadow Step's cool down is too short, also I need a range limit on this. Otherwise, with what is written, you could potentially use Shadow Step to hit someone you see a mile away. Cooldown is too short for combat rounds as well.

There's also a matter of your loyalty. I am a fair and merciful lord, but I treat all my subjects with an equal hand. Thus you are required to make a sacrifice onto the alter of Ice and Murder like everyone else. I demand the blood of a king by your virgin hand. Do you think you can satisfy me?

[Shadowman215]

Brutally murder a Virgin. I've played Vampires in D&D, blood is no issue.@Lucius Cypher

And thanks for the reminder on my personality. I was crashing and I ended up closing half done. I deserve such a rip on that one

Eternal Shadow is sort of meant to be a way to give Kyle a slow. It does only half of any damage he can deal, it's purely meant to allow him to stay glued to a target, just as Shadow Dancer mimics Zeratul's damage ultimate from Heroes. I'll reword it as best I can.

Shadow Dancer I got way to hyped on. I may even remake the name and all on the ability, make Shadow Dancer a later level ability. Dunno yet.

[Jedly]

Kimi's busy with midterms n' stuff, but since tomorrow's Friday, hopefully we'll have enough time to cook something up. Sorry I haven't been too active the past two days... I got Fallout 4... 0_0 my eyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.
Also, just posting this, just to further show how much I'm lost.

[Shadowman215]

@Jedly That game is hella fun, beat it, still playing it. Level 41

[Jedly]

@Shadowman215Already level 27-ish, I've only had it for about two days. My social and online life have been going through a nuclear fallout. Gonna crash now, since it's almost 2 AM here.

[Shadowman215]

@Jedly Same, but I'm gonna keep an eye on here and go kill some muties and hunt down some legendary gear.

[TheWendil]

@Shadowman215

I may have been half asleep/alive when initially reviewing your character. Apologies.

[Shadowman215]

@TheWindel Hey no salt, I was half asleep while topping the lad off. A big thank to Lucius for the warnings, I really overdid his abilities.

[Spriggs27]

@TheWindel@Shadowman215

You two should do things when your in a better mind, sure the human mind is more creative when lacking proper rest but as a M.D I suggest you get your proper rest at the right times.
