Hey guys, Lmpkio here once again. It's been awhile since I pitched up for creating a RP, so I might as well explain what I have planned. Some of you may be familiar with the RP named [u][b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/127400-heroes-rise-an-overwatch-inspired-rp/ooc]Heroes Rise - An Overwatch Inspired RP[/url][/b][/u], which is a RP I was extremely hyped for, going so far as to helping the GM out with recruitment and suggestions for the players. Both the characters and posts put in the IC were very well detailed and quite enjoyable to read by all members alike. You can take a look by pressing this link.

However, recently some unfortunate news had been released by the GM. He states that the RP will be closed, basically due for him having to force himself to make a post (worse part being just before our first action). It was really unfortunate for this to happen, with quite a few dedicated players (including myself) wanting to continue. However, I especially, along with a few others, would hate to waste such a RP opportunity be flushed down the toilet. So with the GM not minding to use this idea for one of our own RPs, I've decided to toss my hat into the ring to once again become a GM and perhaps reboot the RP.

For those who are new to seeing this RP, here's basically the rules provided from the old site (which I plan to use most, if not all, of the info provided):

The year, is 2022. Mankind has made leaps and bounds in the areas of technology and medicine, and most countries have experienced a period of great wealth. But all good things must come to an end. The Emperors Entente, an alliance between Russia, China, and North Korea, all countries which had found themselves under dictatorial rule, is formed, and together, they begin to encroach on the borders of other sovereign nations, taking land. Other countries couldn't sit back and watch this happened. And so came the formation of the Paladin Coalition, led by the US, the UK, Australia, France, and Germany, the Coalition fought valiantly against the imperialistic mindset of their enemies.

But valiance does not win a war, and the Paladins would learn that. By the beginning 2024, they were losing, and the situation looked bleak. Citizens were calling for the usage of nuclear weapons, but as a last resort, the Sentinels were formed. The Sentinel Program, a group of gifted individuals from all walks of life who were called to the most dangerous tasks, the most brutal missions. They were a special ops team who saw the most success of any unit during the war. They became celebrities, heroes. And without them, the war would have been lost. By 2026, the Paladins had managed to turn the war in their favor, thanks to the Sentinels, and by November of that year, the Emeperors Entente had surrendered. The war was won, and democracies were instated in the countries that had made up the Entente. 

Without any need for the Sentinels, the group was disbanded, sent on their way. While they were heralded as heroes, featured in museums and documentaries, they were discarded, and soon the public lost interest. Many found work as mercenaries or assassins, and some retired peacefully. The world had no need of heroes anymore.

The end of the war brought a time of peace and prosperity. Technology once again began to flourish, and the creation of sentient machinery, Mechs, was a huge step forward. Mechs became common members of society, working and socializing with humans like never before, although this brought along it's own social problems. But past the surface, darkness still lurked.

In the defeated countries, people wanted revenge. Many of the citizens of the Emperor's Entente had supported the war, and now they were living in relative squalor. They wanted revenge, to see their people on top of the world, rather than taking the scraps from everyone else. These sentiments bred extremism in each of the defeated countries, and terrorist groups arose, groups who each wanted to put their country's people on top. Which brings us to the present.[hr]

The year is now 2039, thirteen years since the end of the war. The aforementioned terrorist groups have gained quite the foothold in the world, and their activities make the evening news nearly every day. The big three of these groups, the Shadow Cabal, the Talons, and the United Brothers, have been meeting, discussing the formation of one large group, made out of their smaller ones. Recently, an attack was made on the British royal family by the Talons, and the British government is calling for action. The world needs heroes. And so the world is going to get some. The UN has decided to reenact the Sentinel Program, calling in people from all across the globe to become part of it. From former Sentinels to former criminals, they are in desperate of aid in the fight against those who would see the world plunged into chaos. The Sentinels have been called to arms.

[b][u]Have Fun[/u][/b] - Please, I want this to be fun for all involved, so just chill out and have fun. If something is inhibiting that goal, let me or Blue know, and I can try and fix it.

[b][u]Respect[/u][/b] - Respect each other, as well as the rules. As the GM, what I say goes, and Blue as the Co-GM holds similar power. If one of us says something isn't right, then it isn't.

[b][u]Drama[/u][/b] - Keep it in the IC. IC drama is encouraged. These are characters from all walks of life, of course they won't get along. But don't let that drama bleed into the OOC. If there is an issue, bring it to me, don't fight among yourselves.

[b][u]Posting[/u][/b] - I try not to be too insane about posting rules, but I do expect about two paragraphs of non-dialogue in each post. I think that's reasonable and if you think otherwise, then please bring it to my attention. Also, I would like people to post at least twice a week, preferably more but I understand people get busy. If you'll be unable to post for a few days, just let me or Blue know. Last but not least, make sure two people have posted before posting again.

[b][u]Characters[/u][/b] - I want to see interesting characters, with flaws and whatnot. They shouldn't be perfect, in fact far from it, and they definitely shouldn't be overpowered and indestructible. I expect you to put effort into making a character, and if you need any help, ask me or Blue.

[b][u]PG-16[/u][/b] - This will be a pretty intense RP, and there'll probably be some violence. Try to keep it to minimal gore. I don't want to puke when I'm reading about how you're character killed a thug. That's unnecessary. As for romance, when clothes start coming off, fade to black or take it to the PMs.

[b][u]Miscellaneous[/u][/b] - All the common rules still apply. No godmodding etc etc. In the extra section, put down your favorite Overwatch character, so I know you read the rules.

The plan is to simply continue from the last point in the RP, basically to continue from the briefing from the leader of the Sentinels and go about on the mission at hand, instead of completely going for a take two. Old players can then get back into the action, and also allow new players to experience action quite quickly in the beginning. The leader, Archangel, will be changed to my design and fitting, being most likely very different from the GM's original version. Will be accepting Co-GM spots right away, and will be picking those who have had experience with such from other RPs. Active people is a must, yaddi yaddi ya, and so on. 

I'll also slightly change the CS sheet as well, probably getting rid of the Likes, Dislikes, and Habits n Quirks (they should be included in the personality anyways) if you guys vote on it being deleted from the CS. Optional for older players to keep it, but rather it's simply optional. Newer players aren't required to do this. Also, you won't be restricted to using real-life-looking characters. Anime pics are perfectly fine with me.

Sounds good no?

But I'm not quite finished yet. 

You see, I've also been thinking of another version of this RP. It's basically the same thing, but also combining multiversal elements into it. Basically, you can play as a character of video game fiction (movie fictional characters I personally think wouldn't fit as well) and make he/her be part of the group at hand. Pick any character from the video game multiverse, as long as they aren't too strong, or simply nerf them to a reasonable degree at the start (they will get stronger as the RP progresses). The only limit to picking your characters? Simply, don't pick Overwatch characters (because c'mon, let's make this a little more original and diverse huh?). But in regards of storyline, it'll work pretty much the same way as the Heroes Rise RP, but with some new features and possibly locations added in as well. 

For example, I plan for it to have different "ranks". Casuals and newcomers will be in their own team ranks, but say the more stronger and more-experienced fighters, the Elites, will be on a higher scale of rank and authority and participate on different, and more dangerous, missions. This was kind of a thing regarding a previous Multiverse RP I had that had command positions and so on. (In case your wondering, that RP failed simply due to heavy Speedposting, along with the idea coming from yet another previous RP I took command of, about warping through one multiverse to the other, which ultimately got confusing and simply not as fun, hence the lack of fun).

So what do I call this then? Multiwatch? Nah, I'll call it [u][b]Legacy Unit[/b][/u], something a little more original no?

[hr][hr]

However, I'll be unable to run two RPs at once. I'll have to have you guys vote on this. Either go with the [b]Heroes Rise[/b] RP, or go with my original [b]Legacy Unit[/b] RP? Once I feel that enough people have voted, I will announce the winner and prepare the winning RP accordingly. Keep in mind, while I can immediately start up Heroes Rise, I'll have to brainstorm a little more with Legacy Unit (help is highly appreciated if you want to) and make a separate interest check later on regarding on the plans for it. Again, this depends on which RP wins. But regardless, it is simply up to you lovely people to choose.

So don't be shy, pick your destiny. I will be happy with either one. :)
