Earth vs. The Giant Monsters (always open)

Gah, i want to start writing, but my character is defined as arriving a day after K-day.
I just realized i can start off my human, that's a good idea.

Earth vs. The Giant Monsters (always open)

I like the Cauldron, however, what human will you play alongside it? @baraquiel

Earth vs. The Giant Monsters (always open)

Raaawr! Cyclopean vs Krister

Cyclopian

Name: Cyclopian.

Appearance: It resembles a shining steel mechanical skeleton of a humanoid with a single shining blue eye, it has a maw that seems constantly open and its resting position seems to be a sort of messias stance with its arms outstretched down on its sides showing its palms.
Instead of legs it has a disk that is made from wheels within wheels which constantly revolve and move with mechanical motion. Ice-cold blue mist forms beneath it partially hiding its form.

Pics

Size: Precisely 100 metres tall.(328 feet)

It Came From: The north sea, the first sighting was near iceland as it came in from the sea, freezing everything in its path and beached on the northern part of the island.

Abilities: Cyclopian hovers ominously and impossibly above the ground, the bright mist is deathly cold and freezes all in its path. Its single eye is capable of emitting a violent continuous beam of bright blue energy, it dances across whatever it looks at and can destroy buildings with ease.
With concentration it can form an energy field which covers an 100 degree disc in front of it, it is impenetrable to all known weapons.

Cyclopean can phase shift, dimension travel or some sort of gate faring. The practical effect is teleportation.
With some preparation, Cyclopean can focus all his energy and teleport. The maximum distance is unknown but reports seem to limit its range to thousands of kilometers.
This drains Cyclopean in some way and the teleportation cannot be used more than a day without risking itself.

The most terrifying ability it has though is to create miniscule versions of itself to serve it.
Resembling 10 metre tall steel angels, they lack the disc of its creator featuring 2 or 4 legs, on their backs are fluttering wings resembling a mix between butterfly and feather wings made from steel.
They often wield some sort of weapon, often some sort of polearm. Both their eyes and the weapons can fire a similar style beam like their creator but with less force and the deathly cold mist follow them as well, but they need to stay still in a place to really freeze their position unlike Cyclopean.
These small Cyclopii are fast, hit hard and are hard to hit, but mundane weapons have shown effectiveness against them.

Weaknesses: Cyclopean at a glance has no weakness. But in truth it is because none have managed to exploit it yet.
The metal form of Cyclopean is stronger than Titanium, but it cannot heal naturally and has less supernatural resilience than some of the other Kaiju.
The forcefield can only protect in a 100 degree arc, it is thus weak from attacks from multiple positions.
Compared to other Kaiju, it is slow. Only travelling a measly 30km/h usually, with a top speed of 100km/h. While that is frighteningly fast for such a massive machine, human vehicles and other Kaiju can easily outpace it with their vehicles.
Cyclopean has some deep innate connection to decimal numbers. What that is remains to be seen.

History: It could first be seen from the coast, it seemed like a massive idol of religion. Perverted to be some sort of strange machine god.
Kaiju were no secret the first time this emerged. Frantic messages and news had reached all over when it was first seen and the Icelandic government sent in all its jets.
With an odd pose, resembling prayer followed by a circular motion of the arms and hands, it formed the barely visible screen for the first time. The missiles harmlessly detonated upon the forcefield and the jets began to retreat.
The beast however had other plans, with a outstretched right palm, it boomed a robotic white noise and in its rotating discs, a hundred doors opened and from them emerged the Cyclopii.
They flew into a mechanically perfect formation, before fanning out towards the entire coast. Some hounded the jets, dogfighting with almost the same speed, but with much more agility.
Every jet was cut with either strange polearms or energy beams.
The ground forces never had time to mobilize, the scattered resistance did destroy many Cyclopii, but Cyclopean paid it no heed and pressed on.
The country has been devastated by this monstrous beast. People fear the worst as all outgoing communication has gone silent. It is believed to be moving east following the destruction of Iceland.

Krister Jonsson

Name: Krister Jonsson

Appearance: An average looking bloke, he has a short dark beard and short trimmed hair. He is tall at 1.83 (~6') and is sturdily built.
Picture of Krister as he is travelling on a norwegian fishing boat in a mock "improvised attack method".
steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/93…

Age: 24.

Occupation: Being a soldier by profession, he works as a support gunner and usually tots around a heavy machine gun, which he is uncannily accurate with. He is also intelligent and work extra in the motor pool and at the quartermaster fixing stuff.

Starting Location: Krister Jonsson is in Norway, near Bodö in a military base. He is currently with his unit having mock battles with people from nordic battlegroup for mountain training.

History: Krister Jonsson is from Sweden, Umeå to be precise.
He had a remarkably uneventful upbringing and has a university degree in engineering. He went into the military since he felt he needed the structure in his life and received it as he was accepted into the nordic battlegroup.

Being a generally nice guy, albeit a bit brutish in his ways at times. People have described him as being an unpolished diamond.
Hard as nails but rough. Potentially beautiful but needs some work.

His current goal is simply to help people, being part of a peacekeeping force is something he feels is right and tries his best to be a good guy. There are many places that need help and he and his unit is there to help.
Not to mention how much shit everything went when Kaiju began to attack all over.

Earth vs. The Giant Monsters (always open)

Cool.

I'd like my character to end up in TERRA eventually, but to begin with he's gonna run around in norway for a bit.

I'll move my chars to the CS :)

Earth vs. The Giant Monsters (always open)

This looks fun.

I saw the part of people wanting small demi-kaiju to fight, this monster will help with that nicely ;)

Also my human WILL be recruited by a anti-monster organization, mostly because i envision him in one.

Raaawr!

Endless Horizon - Nationgame in Space

Yup.

It's sort of a blessing and a curse.
Discord gives a good overview of who is online, one can easily PM and even voice-chat with people.
Downside is that the OOC seems dead, therefore the thread seems dead and few new players feel any need to join.

Endless Horizon - Nationgame in Space

It's mostly been people on discord talking of how much they don't have time for stuff.

But a discord usually makes the OOC very quiet.

Endless Horizon - Nationgame in Space

We haven't really gotten going, but i'm sure it's just to pop in on the discord and ask.

If you don't use discord someone will probably get to you eventually.

Formaroth Part 2: Throne of Lies

The following night Claus was sitting in his command tent in complete silence, he had lit the scented candle given to him by Dyril and the purple candle shone a deep yellow steady sheen, filling the straight walled tent filled with officers junk like maps, boxes and chests with a deep but pleasant lavender scent.
He was slouched back in his chair so much it seemed a wonder he was still in it, lazily pushing a ink bottle around while having a deeply troubled look on his face.
The ink bottle was throwing a shadow over his face as he moved it along, without any obvious reason he quickly sat up, took the candle and put it right under his nose, letting the hot air fill his nose with his deep inhale.
A strong flowery scent filled his senses completely and the heat really helped his tension in his forehead, which had sprung a headache which had lasted for hours.

He sat there sniffing for a while, thinking of how it had started.
Alenius must think of him as a lunatic fool, he knew he had nightmares from time to time. But they'd never been a problem before, never so strong either, never so real.
The heat of the candle reminded him of the flames, he quickly put it away almost putting it out by the speed.
She had just sat there as he told her he didn't know what happened, a clear lie since he knew perfectly and he was sure she saw right through that.
He had simply ignored her, gathered his things and opened the door only to find worried tenants had gathered outside their room to figure out what was going on.
He guessed he appeared as a panicked animal as he ignored their honest worries and left them to Alenius as he stormed past them and out.
The looks in their eyes had made him feel shame and insecurity.

He did not feel good, not in the slightest. It was dark out and normally he'd have gone to bed to get some extra sleep but not tonight.
He dared not sleep.
One of the few times in his life he remembered being struck with actual fear. But he remembered those deep red unblinking eyes... he shuddered.
It was so blissful the time that Dyril had spent with him following that horrible morning.
No worries, just reminiscing about better times and practicing some well needed accuracy training. For both of them. In truth he wasn't the best shot around.
After she left he had eaten the youtai with an initial excitement but after a few bites he had lost his appetite. The delicious bread not able to distract him from his haunting thoughts.
That was yesterday, he had wasted all day in the tent.
Not wanting to waste the fine gifts he poured some wine and brought forth the bread again, forcing himself to eat and drink.
The tastes were great, but he did not enjoy it.
It reminded him of the Beilokias, the odd clouds rolling over the mountains, the fungi forests with the gloomhawks circling above.
It reminded him of the battle of hymns.
With an increase in heart rate he froze all movements, his hand slightly shaking and the wine was forming circles from the movements. He stared intensely at nothing being caught in his memories of the fateful battle.
The confusion, the panic, the anguish and screams all coming back. Not to forget the red eyes... those dark spectres with red unblinking eyes.
Claus realised his frozen state and with shaking hands shugged the mug of wine and put it aside, now realising he still had bread in his mouth he swallowed that as well.

There were noises approaching his tent, two corpsmen, Jake and one of the new guys by the sounds of them speaking of... Scassia smoked stilton? They were closing fast.
Claus violently shook his face trying to get out some of the tension and smeared down on his face with his hands as well, sort of rejuvenating it.
As the two entered they quickly marched up to the centre of the tent and stood at attention and salute.
-"Steelhead, we're back from the job with the emperor." One of the reported.
Claus stood up and trying to act normal gave a moments smile and spoke.
-"So you enter my tent unannounced and speak of cheese from my home and didn't bring any? I'm disappointed." The two looked puzzled and slightly worried when Claus went on.
-"At ease, you new guys are such bores. Now what gives, there's a reason you felt like you needed to come here." He slouched back into his chair and met their eyes. Jake answered him.
-"Uh yes sir, we were at a test of some sort with the emperor visiting some alchemist and he had some really interesting stuff." Claus could see the gleeful engineer inside of his trooper so this was surely something interesting.
-"Yes? What?"
-"Blasting powder! Non magical!" The wide grinned Jake infected Claus with some of that excitement. Especially since all blasting powder the fist had ever used before had been magical in nature. Either needing a proper mage to use it or being ludicrously expensive for little worth, this was fascinating news.
As Claus listened to the full report he saw many opportunities with such potent powder, he just hoped the prize would be worth it and of course that the good emperor would let them have it.

Endless Horizon - Nationgame in Space

@Willy Vereb The reason they don't have a massive supply is that they don't produce much.
And I was thinking their personality might solve that a bit.

*Bellakee arrives in system*
-"Hello locals, we are here to trade. We can offer a multitude of things but our most popular is our ultra-fine Eltreum."
-"Ah, we have these awesome weapons and rare ores."
-"That's nice, now what do you offer for the Eltreum?"
-"Errrr, we want to sell you weapons..."
-"Oh, well you see weapons don't hold much value. Do you know anything of the Builders?"
-"Errr, we don't think so."
-"Too bad."
*Leaves*
*Bellakee arrives in neighbour system*
-"Wassup Bellakee, we found a satellite which might have been a Builder satellite, we also want to sell you some really shitty art and poetry."
-"Oh, very interesting, we will trade you [unexpectedly much Eltreum] for that."
*Leaves, while the first place thinks WTF???!?!*

Sure, my dudes could sell weapons to the next nation they come across, but it'd be a hassle. Since they'd see little value in it and it takes a bunch of space.
