Return to the Multiverse

So you're saying you act like this in real life? Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I think you've got a serious problem here.

Return to the Multiverse

Nobody's saying making a character like your Deadpool is against the rules. Everybody's saying it's a damn stupid idea to do it, especially since your character's interpretation of Deadpool acts nothing like a regular person or Deadpool, and certainly doesn't act like a mixture of both.

Massive Multiversal Crossover

Hampus the Red, Meta-Ridley's Ship's Engine Room's Control Center Hampus stared deeply into the console in front of him. When he was told that he'd be working in the engine room, he expected to be hauling coal and maintaining valves, not... whatever this is! Fortunately, Hampus had a bit of a guide in the form of a friendly engineer willing to explain the console's working for him. "Alright, let's see... you press this tiny red button to pulse the radiation emitters. If you don't do that every five or so minutes, the core's going to go prompt-critical, and... well, it won't be very comfortable for either of us. Now, if the core's color changes to yellow, you'll have to turn this switch down here, that's the particle accelerator. Uh, now that should be all you need for right now, just remember that, uh... sometimes, we get unwanted visitors. They're these little green naked things we like to call Gremlins, and they're none too nice. Now, normally they don't bother you much, but if they try and get in close, you're going to want to defend yourself. See, if they managed to actually catch you, they're going to... well, we haven't seen much of what happens, but security footage suggests that they'll toss you into the engine, for some reason. So... that should be it for your tutorial, uh, good luck!" Hampus leaned over the console and wiped a hand across his sweaty forehead. Today was just about ready to begin, it seemed.

It's called 'Multiverse: YOU ARE THE CHARACTER' Get fucking used to it.

It's called 'Return to the Two Multiverses', actually.

Return to the Multiverse

Player/character mixed personality I think you missed that line before? :/

JonxlatheLion

In that case, you're going to just make some random schmuck with Ghost Rider's powerset, and you'll completely ignore all of Johnny Blaze's personality just so you can swing a fiery chain and ride a motorcycle.

Return to the Multiverse

That's the point. You're trying to make an RP-based character and not a combat character, aren't you? Why use Ghost Rider, whose main schtick is killing demons all on his lonesome, primarily to interact with other characters?

Return to the Multiverse

Hardly. Ghost Rider doesn't have a personality that works with any group, good or bad. They're loners. That's the main reason they have that whole "biker" theme. Plus, that analogy about Ghost Rider and Deadpool working like Cable and Deadpool is... odd, to say the least. Consider how Ghost Rider and Cable are nothing alike. Consider how the few instances of Ghost Rider interacting with Deadpool were fundamentally different from Cable interacting with Deadpool. Hell, why are you playing Ghost Rider and not, say... Weasel or Cable?

Return to the Multiverse

Except Cable got just as much action as Deadpool. You're not planning on keeping Ghost Rider and Deadpool in the same place, since you said you wanted to be in each group. Beyond all that, Ghost Rider just isn't a character you can faithfully use in a group dynamic like this. You'll either completely butcher the character, or alienate the group with his attitude and actions.

Return to the Multiverse

From his ship, Cuban Pete watched Ganondorf's Castle sinking. He breathed a sigh of disappointment, and shook his head. After all, there could have been useful loot in there. If not, there was probably a host of defenders just waiting for him to come and deal with them. Oh well, at least he got three prime specimens out. Now, where were they...? Cuban Pete scanned the area around the crater, and managed to find several massive footsteps ringed by lingering embers. Pete wagered a guess that wherever the beast went, its targets went as well. Pete traced the footsteps... back into the castle. The castle that was now rapidly crumbling and almost certainly wasn't safe to be anywhere near, let alone inside. Pete began to unleash a scream. A scream that sang of anger, of hatred, of deeply-entrenched depression. A scream that made absolutely no sound because its origin didn't have vocal chords anymore. A scream that was, in fact, more of a prolonged wheeze.

Return to the Multiverse

Why even have a character if all they're going to be capable of doing is popping in every once in a while to spout off a one-liner and vaguely imply that they're super-powerful? Why even have a weakness if you're already planning to boil away a crucible upgrade to remove it? Why even have a Penance Stare if all it does is kill bottom-of-the-barrel mooks and especially since you're not even going to get the chance to use it? None of this makes any sense whatsoever.
