Current Geez, it's been 11 months since I last logged in. Sorry to anyone I was RPing with, real life got in the way and I guess I just lost track of time.

Yay, the main thread is finally up!
My bio isn't done yet, but here is the rest of Tommy's sheet. I'll be posting it along with the main thread shortly.




Could have like an Emerald or Jade ranger instead of Green if you want more exotic colors.


Yeah, I thought about seeing if everyone wanted to switch to material names instead of colors, but hadn't decided whether or not to suggest it. Emerald Ranger (Green), Ruby Ranger (Red), Amethyst Ranger (Purple), Star Sapphire Ranger (Pink), Cobalt Ranger (Blue), Obsidian Ranger (Black), Diamond Ranger (White), and then there could be five metallic ones - Gold, Silver, Copper, Bronze, and Brass. This would bring the total to twelve Nanosuits, so that we'd have a large number on standby in case other people become interested in the RP as it unfolds.

What do you all think? If we do this, then I will probably change the title of the main RP thread to something like Power Rangers: Chimera Force or Power Rangers: Dragonwings or Power Rangers: Dragon Fury or Power Rangers: Nano Morphers.
I'm working on my character sheet and was deciding on final images, and I figured I'd share this for anyone still not sure what their Ranger suit looks like:



Feel free to use that for inspiration. I will be using the Green and eventually White for Tommy, and the Purple for Bandora's heir. Additionally, just to round out the starting team, I may go ahead and play a second Ranger for the time being. If I do, I am either considering a Red Ranger since Forsythe went with Copper, or perhaps a Gold Ranger or Silver Ranger so that we have more than one metallic suit. We'll see. For the time being, I'm just focusing on getting Tommy all set.
Holy shit, check out all these kick-ass Ranger 3D model designs someone created! They did some weapons too.

I think you should stop spoiling and in general planning that far ahead, spoilers suck and plans don't survive anyway xD


Baha, it's not spoiling when we are all co-writers :D. I always plan out a loose story skeleton for my RPs, just to keep the pacing decent and to have an idea where the narrative flow is headed, but also to keep it malleable so that we can shape the overall story together. If everyone just starts posting with no overarching narrative thought out, the RP is doomed to become a chaotic mess and ultimately die. Although the exact details shift and flow as the RP unfolds, I usually like to have at least four or five story arcs planned out ahead of time so that I always have ideas where to point the narrative next. I absolutely hate writing myself into a corner, so there is always a lot of pre-planning thought out in anything creative I do, whether it is roleplays or novels or video games or videos XD.

Anyway, Winds, if you do go with that idea, I have a few suggestions for appearances. The default Nanosuit appearance could look similar to this:



But then he could fuse his Sorcerer suit and his Ranger suit together to look like a black version of this or something similar:



And then his Zord could look like this:



These are, of course, just ideas, and no need to decide right now since that part of the story would not come up for a bit.
A lot of the seasons did not start with a full team, I think we are okay to go. I don't want a second character now, but may have other idea for what to do with the extra suits later on >:D


You make a valid point :D.

Who knows, maybe one day a suit will accept Sa'Cha and meld with him in some weird magical techy way. IDK.


If you'd like, at first, we can say everyone believes a human who already has Mana sensitivity will be rejected by a Nanosuit if they attempt to bond, but at the climax of the first major story arc, Bandora and Goldar and a squad of monsters are overwhelming the Rangers, and the good guys are on the verge of defeat. During this part of the battle, Sa'Cha has to stay behind in the Command Center because Bandora is using a device to absorb various energies, and his Mana is extremely susceptible to that type of drain because the channels to expend that energy are so well-used. So, he knows that trying to aid in the battle will only strengthen Bandora further. He feels worthless in that fight, despite Zordon trying to reassure him, and then when he sees on the viewscreen that the Rangers are all about to die, Sa'Cha cries out, and suddenly, a Nanosuit responds and begins glowing.

"The Black Nanosuit has chosen you, Sa'Cha. Step forward and accept the responsibility and all that comes with it," Zordon explains after a moment of silence. He claims the power, and realizes that being bonded with the suit shields his Mana from being drained, and he's able to rush in and save the day.

What do you think?
Hmmm. So, I think it's safe to assume Duthguy is not coming back, so it looks like we'll start off with four Power Rangers (Me, Crimson, Forsythe, Gisk) and a sorcerer ally (Winds). Does anyone want to play a second character? I only want to play Tommy for now since I know I'll have the Purple Ranger as well down the road. If nothing else, we can say there are a few Nanosuits that haven't been bonded to a new host yet, similar to the Energems in Dino Charge.

I’ve updated the picture. Let me know if it’s better.


That works!

Also, I found a cringy-as-fuck scene from Zyuranger that I figured I'd share:
