I'm interested in joining as a Hero; what's the present situation of the RP, both IC and OOC?


Right, so we're still in Story Arc 1 were a gang-leader called Caro has promised the police he'll name the Mercenary Metas around LA. So, these mercenaries want him dead and the heroes have to protect him!

What are the maximum power levels allowed for a PC?

Edit: Sorry for sounding like a munchkin *embarrassed tone*.

Ah, A - Class. Can your powers advance as you progress in the RP, or are they set in stone?

Yeah they can advance. Not too drastically, as long as you don't stray into S ranking!

I see. Sorry to sound like a munchkin, but that just takes away the allure of playing.

I really must apologize.

Sorry to double-post, but, well, I need to explain things further while at the same time bumping the thread. The problem is that, as described, S and SS-level NPCs are invincible, even to a group of A-level PCs. I know, I know, this might just be a mistake, but I don't like it when I assume is the main enemy is, well, unfightable, even with a cohesive group with complementing abilities.

The strongest person we have is an a class. I think the point of it all was some form of realism.

I get ya. My problem is that even if a group of A-Class people ambush an S or SS-class, they'll still lose.

Anyway, will keep myself subscribed a little longer; I like how the others are RPing that much.

Dude there is so much going on right now I doubt anyone could have the time to deal with an S class.

I think it would be okay to get a characters like mine to could get to the ceiling of an A or B class and have a form that could break through that ceiling for a very short time.

Thanks; that works. Anyway, to show that I'm genuinely interested in Roleplaying and not just Powergaming:

I have two character ideas, actually, one of them actually 'weak' by general standards. Idea one is a minor Reality Warper - emphasis on Minor - whose immense potential is limited by psychological issues, either innate to him or inflicted by outside factors. Originally, he was going to be an S or SS-class Metahuman with multiple internal 'leashes'; basically, he's dependent on emotional support for others, doesn't like killing other people or even maiming them, and is hobbled by trauma relating to his parents/childhood/past in general.

My second idea is a rehash of an idea that never got to its full potential - basically, someone whose powers are to use every tool and instrument ever created. His powers are such that he stayed hidden for a long time, and even had a career playing musical instruments. To him, being told that he's a Metahuman, forced to register, and conscripted into a job filled with conflict is, well...let's just say it's going to come to a shock. But the twist is; 'tools and instruments' are loosely defined, meaning that he can use even superweapons made by S or SS-Class Metas. Of course, this is going to be a late reveal, or even a late usage of a 'loophole' in his powers, and for most of the RP, he would be regarded as a B or even C-class Meta, and would fight on a B or C-class Meta's level, or even less because, well, he's a newbie not used to fighting.

The first character sounds even with mental limitations like S class because he/she falls under the boundary manipulation power

BOUNDRY MANIPULATION
Capabilities : The user can manipulate boundaries - material, spiritual, conceptual, metaphysical, and so on. Since everything is physically and existentially defined by boundaries, the possibilities offered are limitless - for limits themselves are nothing more than the boundary Possible/Impossible, and the user can manipulate even that. Simply put, there is ultimately nothing the user cannot achieve

Sorry to sound like such a meany but we need to be careful with such abilities.

It would with only a slight increase in power make one a god/goddess

Interesting but as there are few Gadgeteer in the game if any.
We don't have a Ironman type but it would be cool to have one
The Gadgeteer type has limitations which make them interesting
It takes them days, weeks an even months to make the different modules

Understood; now I'm torn between the two ideas.

Toss a sheet or two up. I see no reason why we can't have more people if everyone agrees with it.

The thing is, definitely as far as my knowledge spans, S or SS-classes are usually either employed directly as countries for protection or destroyed by other metas of that ranking. Basically, S and SS-classes are superpowers that detach themselves from infighting amongst the other ranks. I believe they would only step in if a meta becomes a massive risk!

I think your second idea sounds awesome and it may open up a whole host of storylines but something I find with Ruby is that combat is extremely limited compared to other Metas!

Sure! We need more people so that would be awesome! Might make another character as well!
