@kczrsk@tanderbolt@Shifter_Master@Letter Bee@Metronome The first IC post is up, tagging you because mentions don't work in edits.

Robotech in Rifts

@blainedeyoungI mean, that was always possible. Rifts themselves can be opened to just about any dimension, at any point in time. All you had to do was have the GM/a player open one to Robotech earth at whatever time period you wanted to pull from, and bring the tech/characters over to Rifts earth. The biggest issue is, the Invid can travel between dimensions similar to Rifts, and bringing over protoculture to Rifts earth would bring the Flower of Life, and thus bring the Invid. It'd be an interesting plothook for a campaign, but one that would need to be done closer to the endgame, given how powerful the Invid can be.

HALT! [Light Hearted, High Fantasy, Tongue in Cheek]

Yeah you've got my interest. I've got a character concept I can work into this setting.

"Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?"

"No."

"I thought not, its not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith so powerful and so wise, he could use the Force to influence the midi-chlorians to create...life. He had such a knowledge of the Dark Side, he could even keep the ones he cared about...from dying."

"He could actually...save people from death?"

"The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be...unnatural."

"W-What happened to him?"

"He became so powerful, the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power...which, eventually of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew. Then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death...but not himself."

"Is it possible to learn this power?"

"Not from a Jedi..."

Fallout New Vegas: Points of Divergence [Reboot]

Yeah, no. I don't think anyone should be playing a main character from any of the Fallout games, as those characters are VERY hard to pin down any level of power and scale on. I also do NOT like the idea of any character not controlled by the GM of the RP bossing characters around, and frankly, the fact that @Letter Bee didn't immediately reject this character concept worries me about the direction this RP is headed.

The Weirdest World War

@Lady SeluneNow are the MIA Infantry divisions part of the SS or the Heer/Wehrmacht?

Star Wars: Red Harvest inspired RP

I'll throw my interest in this, just to see if it goes anywhere.

L.A By Night (Classic World of Darkness: Vampires, Werecreatures, Mages, Demons, Hunters and more)

David Jones

Name: Officially he is David Jones, though to other Demons/Angels he is named Cidahl

Age: Apparent age of 27, Actual Age is unknown, at the very least predating the creation of humanity.

Species: Demon inside a mortal host, though he doesn't actually know this at the moment.

Appearance: David is a somewhat average adult male, with brown hair and green eyes. He is clean shaven, though occasionally can be found with stubble if a particularly long case takes up his time. He wears prescription glasses, with a magnetic sunglasses attachment for bright days. His general outfit is a bit impractical for athletic activities, with him wearing dress shirts and slacks, differently-colored ties, with the occasional suit coat, blazer, or trench coat if the weather is poor. He also wears a suit fedora, styled after 1950s detectives, matching his jacket. He has a shoulder holster he wears under his usual jacket, which holds a semi-automatic pistol and some spare magazines. He also generally keeps a pack or two of cigarettes and a lighter on him at any given time.

Personality: David, the mortal, is a polite, gentlemanly individual. He does his best to help people in need, regularly taking up cases the police have thrown out, or investigating leads denounced as the ramblings of mad figures. This has earned him a reputation as a great help to the citizens of L.A., often bringing to light evidence that helps resolve cases, or(more often) brings closure to the people who brought him the case in question.

Cidahl, the demon, holds no qualms about his fall from the heavens, and betrayal of the Almighty. He sees the mortals as his plaything to twist and contort, and seeks to claim the earth as his own to rule over, his whims and desires subjugating the population. Or at least he would, if his memories weren't currently lost somewhere deep within the mind of his mortal host, following his conflict with a Hunter immediately after his possession of David.

Biography: David was originally a police detective, investigating a gruesome murder case where a man had been ripped to shreds in the wilderness near the city. This case eventually led to an encounter with what was revealed to be a Wyrm-infected Werewolf. David struggled to keep himself alive, but was saved by someone he would become good friends with, Bowyer Dolph. Dolph saw that David could be a useful asset, and introduced him to the supernatural aspects of the world. David would attempt to resolve the murder case, but issues in the department and courts left him with no choice but to resign from the force.

From there, with Bowyer's help, he established Jones & Dolph Private Investigations, and began to dig into the world of the occult and supernatural. These escapades would culminate in a missing persons case that would lead to David uncovering a cult, the members seeking to summon a demon from the depths of the underworld. They would capture David, using him as the host for the demon, a dark entity named Cidahl.

Just as Cidahl took control of David's body, a mortal Hunter broke into the cult's hiding place. The Hunter and Cidahl engaged one another, but due to the Hunter's own abilities, Cidahl would be defeated, but not banished. Instead, his memories would be buried under those of his host form, and he would find himself believing himself to be David Jones, awaking in his apartment above his office with a message on his voicemail, thanking him for saving the aforementioned missing person from the cult in question.

Now David hears rumors in the supernatural world that the supposed End Times are coming, the Garou speak of apocalypse, the Kindred of Gehenna, and creatures across L.A. rush to stake their claim on whatever they can. Bowyer hasn't contacted David in some time, and he now finds himself having strange dreams of a long-ago war between indescribable creatures, and that he can hear and see whispers of dead spirits.

Supporting Characters:
Jacki Edwards - The founder, chief writer and chief editor of The Occult Digest, a globally-online (and sold in print in L.A.) magazine dedicated to investigating and shedding the light on the truth behind the various supernatural happenings in L.A, the USA, and around the globe. She has been hounding and following David for years, ever since he began his career as a private investigator for cases believed to have a supernatural aspect. She desperately dogs him for answers to questions, interview rights, and knowledge about his dealings with the supernatural, usually to no avail, though he has been known to indulge her wishes on occasion.

Bowyer Dolph - A werewolf, and David's connection to the supernatural world. He hasn't spoken with David since the incident with the cult, but prior to that he was David's advisor and consultant on what supernatural creatures were known to operate in what areas, their general habits and activities, and major events in history that are frequently referenced, or influence more recent ones.
