Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

I'm currently waiting for Hero to reply so we can finally wrap this collab up. It's so close!

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

Nope...none at all. >_> <_<

Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

I'm still interested I've just been having a hard time forcing myself to write the bar scene out recently. I know it's a shitty excuse by it's the truth. I'll start writing it today and try to finish up tomorrow afternoon.

@cqbexpt

We all have days like that, though if you can't post IC then at least try to be active in the OoC. Maybe relaxing might allow inspiration to come to you and suddenly it will click?

Mass Effect: Borealis

IGNORE THIS PELASE

Whoops.

@DearTrickster

Never!!!

Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

<Snipped quote by Fallenreaper>

Bah, who needs to be social? Everyone just needs to love and obey Sish.

Everyone.

@Rtron

Sish needs to make his presence known. Right now, Jedi already are starting to wonder if he's a bogeyman. :P

Legends: Yuuzhan Vong War. It just brings something new, and something terrifyingly threatening. This is a species not just wanting to control the Galaxy such as the Sith but they want to change it.

@Sep

I've heard of them, though can't say I'm familiar with them. Define change btw, namely as that subject is a board term and mean from complete domination over the galaxy (as you've pointed out) to extermination. What were some of the things they were aiming to do or accomplish if they had succeeded?

Canon: AS most already here know I am a big fan of the Galactic Civil War and the current material being pumped out by Disney is super interesting. From the Comics following the Heroes of ANH and Darth Vader to books such as Battlefront: Twilight Company. My favourite has to be Lost Stars. It may be essentially a love story but it follows events in the Empire from before the Battle of Yavin right up to the Battle of Jakku.

@Sep

What would be some of the things you would like to see them do a spin on? And *gasps* Sep reading a love story! For shame, you're going to ruin your image there though now I'm curious to know why this love story was readable to you? Also, could you detail a bit of the Galactic Civil War since I'm not familiar with and I enjoy hearing people explain about the lore because there's that fun enthusiasm in their writing that I enjoy.

What I think would be a good movie: I perosnally feel if Disney wants to keep doing this "main story" idea and spin offs they should go to the Old Republic for ideas. It adds a sense of threatening, if you go far enough back (Such as Kotor) anything can happen. People won't go into the cinema and go "Well such and such has to win because they're in Episode 1!" or something like that.

@Sep

If Disney chooses to go with Revan I feel they'd probably spin it into a trilogy playing on Revans popularity and his clear story arcs. Such as Revanchism/Mandalorian wars, before his fall and leading of the Sith Empire and then his return to the light (or exile).

I recall that as Ellri and Echo are informing about that era slowly for our threesome pm rp.

Though I agree with the whole aspect of having pre-established characters, and doing things out of order. It makes it hard to create that tension since you already know who is going to live and who is going to die causing you to relax a bit too much as long as it's not your fave that dies. Also some plot aspects are already set in stone because of this which I find irritating.

I think it might be fun to see how they portray some of the Old Republic stuff though I worry they might go more for ratings than story, which tends to screw up a lot of the movies now a days. They went to try to give everyone something they will enjoy which is technically impossible. Though if they do a Revan series, what bits and pieces would you really like to see within it? Any key scenes or elements?

As this RP no doubt testifies, our favorite era is that of the Old Republic. In particular, eras where not everything is set in stone and where the Jedi have guts and the Sith are many.

As for movie potentials, we think movies set around the major events in the old republic legends. In no particular order:
Great Galactic War.
Revanchism.
Darth bane and Rule of Two
Mandalorian Wars
KOTOR (2)
Great Hyperspace War
Exile of the first Sith
Exar Kun & the Great Sith War.

Too many good options. Maybe stories borrowing from several of these at once, but not blindly following them.

@Ellri

I usually felt if you borrow from too many different sources, you risk a huge ass mess and things get tricky for the next guy to tie them all together. It made more sense to focus on one story than progress it, vaguely hinting to other lore when it became important rather than try to incorporate it fully or as a brief, important aspect within it.

I'm still present, just haven't been able to do anything with Fa since my last response.

@EliteCommander

I'll get the replies up this week, likely in a few days. If I don't, jiggle me on the OC and remind me. I'm waiting to get the Jedi to catch up or at least progressed more because we're already on night of the 3rd day and nearly heading into the 4th day, meaning the Jedi would again be 2 days behind again rather than a day.

*peeks in* Hallo folks. I was speaking with Ellri about joining the group last night, and I'm working on a sheet as I type. Thought I would drop in here to see how everyone is doing.

Anyways, the name's Bane.

@Deamonbane

Ah, you're the new rescuer interest? Nice to meet you and how do you do, my name's Fallen. *holds out hand and shakes* Welcome to Aftermath and happy the current length of the rp hasn't scared you off. We're a nice bunch, I promise.

My favorite Lore is actually fanon, namely the Zabrak as many people know already. I namely enjoy what people had done and built on based off of what they all liked about the various Zabrak Jedi, Sith, and other characters that have appeared over the course of the Lore. Though like a lot of fanon, I did tone down the original for balance. The only thing that irritates me is the fact the language lacks very little, if any, unity in how its created and makes adding more rather difficult since I can't figure out the rules. I'm considering rewriting a version for Aftermath Zabrak or my own use, rather than purely using what was already established namely as I get bored easily.

@Ellri I'll get around to the updates in the summary later this evening as I have some packing to do and food to make.

Mass Effect: Borealis

<Snipped quote by Hellis>

That sounds like a good idea. I've got another idea if your eyes continue to read :>.

<Snipped quote by Fallenreaper>

I should have took more time to explain a bit more clearly what I wanted to do exactly just so it made sense lol, looking back on the posts from last night it was just little snippets of a weird ass idea. I'm sorry if that wasn't made clear, I do apologize. Either way it doesn't matter because I just thought of an even better idea~ that would benefit some help from Tanya, Alex and Dex.

They could use one of the repurposed trucks and drive it straight into the front of the housing building, make a brand new door out of that mofo. Using the trucks at the same time the shooting in the warehouse starts keeping one of the trucks in the yard as back up while the first one goes racing into the building. Wreck some shit.



ADD ON: Been talking more with Hellis over pm about the admin building so I'm being swayed to that side more so. If anyone else is interested in wrecking some shit with the trucks they're more than welcome to use that idea. It's a chance to be a big goddamn hero <3.

@DearTrickster

I think Tanya, Serena and Alex might be able to still do that, namely as the techies can remote control the vehicles while Alex covers and holds the fort until support or aid comes via either Vellios or one of the other groups. When the warehouse is able to be manageable by both Kasyra and Vallis, he'll be moving where he's needed.

I personally am all for driving vehicles into buildings. It was practically a sport in my hometown.

@Dervish

In mine is hood surfing.

@Fallenreaper Vellios would be wise to move to aid whoever contain the block house as soon as the Warehouse is remotely under control. Those trip mines will be so handy when it comes to dealing a moving group of clumped up, angry and confused pirates.

@Hellis

Vellios is only one Turian, so yes, when that is done he will move to where he's needed and let the others secure the warehouse.

Mass Effect: Borealis

I'm mainly having Vellios stick where he can support other offensive attackers and also cause the most damage. Those Cain Mine Trips are rather... nasty.

Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

<Snipped quote by Fallenreaper>

Well. I guess Korens gonna stretch his legs.

@Sep

Careful he doesn't hurt a loin muscle. :P

Add on

Thinking about the lore, I got to thinking about the lore. So, what is everyone's favorite lore?

Mass Effect: Borealis

<Snipped quote by Fallenreaper>

I'm not trying to push a distraction idea that could hurt the other group, that's silly. My point earlier was I'm frustrated because I'm trying to figure out how to incorporate the others in whats happening or what's going to happen. Contribute in a significant way.

@DearTrickster

If you want and think it's a good idea then might I just suggested it at another time and location? The way you suggested, it sounded like you wanted to do it specifically for the warehouse attention which with our PCs at the door... not a good idea. In addition, no one as Dervish has pointed out is covering the block house as we all divided into teams. So contributing in a significant way to every group isn't exactly easy.

Even Vellios hasn't made much as a contribution other than being a pain in the ass really.

Here's an idea: she's an inflitrator right? Well, @Dervish, is it possible for someone to create a voice replicator (crude one) using conversation echos in the omnitools then have Dex and her partner lead our ducks into a row?

Mass Effect: Borealis

Just going to throw this out as the one and only warning, 2 guys are not going to be able to take on 12 others plus an unknown number of other bad guys and come out on top.

@Dervish

*points back to earlier statement*
