I am still on RPG, so do feel free to message me. Just don't have the time or energy to actually join any RP's right now. Focusing on a LOT of other projects, including getting into Audio Drama.

Name: Brother Sergeant Kallius AntioAge: 773Faction: Space Marines –Exodus Chapter – Second CompanyAppearance: Wargear: Tactical Dreadnaught Armor (Terminator Armor), power sword, storm bolter, teleporter packHonour Guard/Squad: Brother Nahom (Assault cannon, teleporter pack) and Brother Laruo (Storm bolter, Power fist, teleporter pack)Bio: Kallius Antio was born on a feral world under the watchful eye of the Genesis Chapter. He came from a long line of great tribal warriors, and he was no exception. At the age of twelve, he was one of many children put through the recruitment trials. Kallius was one of the few who were brought into the Genesis ranks. Kallius served his time as a neophyte as all Space Marine recruits do. He trained his body to become a war machine, while memorizing the Codex Astartes from start to finish. The many trials of worth he and the other neophytes were lethal and extremely taxing, but Kallius pushed through and shone over the rest.After the many long, grueling months of training, Kallius was finally able to join the ranks of the tenth company and become a scout marine. Kallius showed his strength in melee combat during his first few battles as a scout marine, but his lack of stealth skill held Kallius back for longer than normal for a neophyte who showed so much potential. After what seemed like decades to Kallius, he was finally given his chance to prove his worth. Kallius’s squad was to assassinate an Ork warboss who was attempting to create a WAAAGH! Kallius struck the killing blow, and his sergeant allowed him to become a full fledged Space Marine.Kallius went on to become a devastator marine in the sixth company of the Genesis chapter, as all of his Genesis battle brothers did. Kallius served more as a support role than a heavy weapons specialists like most devastator marines. He never aspired to lug around a heavy bolter or missile launcher. He crazed the chance to become an assault marine. His sergeant knew this, and kept Kallius within the ranks of the devastators for a long time until Kallius learned patience and discipline. That Kallius did, and he eventually learned to master the use of a bolter. But he never strayed from the use of his combat knife whenever physically possible.The next phase of his path as a Space Marine was possibly the most exciting for Kallius. To sore into the sky and come back down as an angel of death atop the heads of his foes was something Kallius dreamed of, and still remembers to the present day. He excelled as an Assault Marine, cutting down many great foes with his chain sword. One such time that Kallius would remember forever was when his company had been deployed to deal death down upon a Tyranid splinter fleet that was assaulting an Imperial World in Genesis territory. Kallius and his squad engaged a Hive Tyrant and its guard in the bloodiest melee of Kallius’s career as an Assault Marine. His sergeant was the one who finished the Hive Tyrant off, but Kallius did more than his fair part during the fight. Kallius’s time as a tactical marine was what came next. He spent many years serving with the fourth company as a tactical marine, his expertise in close quarters continuing to grow throughout his career. As a Tactical Marine, Kallius Antio fought through countless battles in dozens of campaigns across the galaxy. He battled all kinds of foes. From Orks to Tau to Chaos Marines, he fought them all. Once, his company encountered a Necron tomb world. That battle had been a total massacre. One of the darker days in Kallius’s past. After spilling much Xeno and heretic blood, Kallius rose to the rank of sergeant. He was transferred back to an Assault Squad as soon as the promotion was made, and Kallius spent a large chunk of his military career leading men in suicidal charges through the sky into the center of enemy armies. Yet he always survived.After spilling the insides of a bloodthrister with the help of his squad (and losing an arm and a leg in the process), Kallius became known as a veteran, and was transferred to the first company. He was assigned as a Vanguard veteran, and fought even more battles and campaigns against the enemies of the Imperium. He served as the Emperor’s finest among his brothers of the Genesis Chapter’s first company. He slew many fearsome foes, and took on much glory and honor. During this time he lost of left eye to a lucky warboss with a big choppa. Kallius was given a third bionic implant, to compliment his bionic arm and leg. After many centuries of hard fighting and glorious battle, the highest honor was bestowed upon Kallius. He was given a suit of Tactical Dreadnaught Armor. For a hundred years he served the Emperor as a Terminator, striking down unnumbered foes. Kallius did not let himself grow an ego, even when he possessed such great skill and had been honored by so many. He remained a humble Space Marine, who considered himself only strong because the Emperor willed him to be. He was a tool for the Emperor, nothing more. Seven three years ago exactly, Kallius Antio was promoted to Sergeant in his terminator squadron and allowed to lead the Emperor’s greatest warriors into battle. Many times he and his squad faced the dark jaws of death itself, but somehow always overcame it. Extra: I spent quite a long time debating what chapter to use/if Kallius should be a Terminator or a Vanguard veteran. Too many choices, too little time I suppose.


accepted.

Profit or non-profit, that wasn't your work to copy. It's the same as wikipedia-ing an article and publishing it as a school book report. You are actively claiming another person's hard work as your own with minimum effort.If you can get those CSes straightened out to a good standard you'll still have a potential place here.


Done. I changed it, re-wrote it, but... a lot of it is the same, because, well, there is only one way to say stuff like "He earned his doctorate in nuclear physics at the California Institute of Technology."
ErsatzEmperor said
I'm sorry that I wasn't clear about that earlier. I'm going to amend it however.


Ok, also, i did the same with Spider-Woman, since you didn't call me on that, i assumed it was all good, because... Well, i don't see why it matters, it's not like we're going to sell this stuff.

But, you're the boss, i'll edit it now.

Well this is awkward....I actually started writing up a CS redo on the Hulk that shifts him from a Primary to a (possibly) Secondary character.Basically, I'm planning a "What If...?" set-up where instead of Banner becoming the Hulk, Betty becomes the She-Hulk through the same gamma incident as Bruce. Assuming that's an OK move in this Universes context?


Well... Why don't we do both? How about your She-Hulk comes from an alternate dimension? It happened in the comics... Only that She-Hulk was a slut that shagged anything that could move a mountain, Such as Hercules and Juggernaut. Actually, that would work perfectly with my Hulk. You see, i was planning on him starting out with a Gray Hulk that is completely uncontrollable, but at the end of his first arc, he creates a formula that will mellow the Hulk out and allow him partial control, which is when he becomes green. Perhaps he could get cornered and almost captured, before Shulk jumps in and saves his ass. Then, he uses some of her blood to try and devise the patch for the Hulk Formula? They are found just as he injects himself and turns green...

I don't want to be funny or anything but you've clearly copied a chunk of this from ...


It was essentially what i was going to put anyway. It just saved me the trouble of writing out the exact same information, only worded slightly differently. I didn't know that copying from the wiki wasn't allowed, you didn't put it in the rules.
I put up the CS for Hulk in my OP, i haven't put up the sample post yet, but how is it looking so far?
Well, since i'm not particularly fussed on who i bring in as a big gun, and there is now others interested in Iron Man, i suppose i'll go Hulk. I've never really played Hulk before, so this could be fun.

I remember your attempts at making an Iron Man/Green Goblin-influenced character in an old X-Men/Marvel RP. You certainly seemed to like the overly-armored approach back then, even if most of your work was rejected.


I have grown in the two years it has been since that RP... Back then, i was a shithead that had big idea's and was determined to force others to let them happen. Now, i am a shithead that has big idea's and is determined to make them happen, but not at the expense of other peoples enjoyment.
DrewVonAwesome said
If I make it as Spider-Man, I would be interested in that idea, but not quite at the start. So you'd have to wait on it a while.


Which is why i put "come in after 3-4 arcs... Although, that time can easily be extended. I would prefer it to happen after the status quo for Spidey is set.

Status quo shaking events don't work until there is a status quo.

Lol yeah. I've got 80 full notebook-sized pages so far on notes for my (potential) characters and future plots, and a Venom at this stage - especially one as you described - wouldn't fit.It sounds to me, Matt, that you more or less want to control parts of Spidey and his development. Just apply for Spidey, then.


Nope... No interest in playing Spidey. I just want to make a good story... In fact, until you pointed out the fact, that i would need Spider-man to begin Venom, i was actually not really thinking about using Spidey, i was actually thinking of introducing him using a combination of his Standard and Ultimate backstories (Saying that he is an Alien parasite, that was found by Oscorp and experimented on, when it got free and found a sample of Spider-Man's DNA that they were working on, then having him absorb it to become the big alien sludge monster we all know and love.) And I didn't know you guys had planned in advance, especially 80 full pages. I just thought of a way that might introduce a beloved character, that would be different, yet familiar. This is exactly why i didn't put a full CS for him, because i was wondering if anyone was up for it. If not, then i would rather know now, than after i have written out a full cs and started making plans.

Alright, so, since Venom is out of the question, someone said we still need a properly powerful character, i was thinking of maybe introducing Hulk, Thor or Iron-Man to fit these roles, which of these would be best, does everyone think?

Can you honestly, hand on heart say that what you have outlined could fill more than 10 posts before it starts to get stale? Because if not, I'm probably not going to be able to accept it. If you can however, and the Spider-Man player is okay with it (which could be a tall ask seeing as I imagine they'd have their own stories that they want to tell) then your free to do that. I am actually kind of interested as to what some of that would entail though. I'd say hold off for now, but it could well be realised with a bit of communication.


Definitely, 10 descent posts is easy. 100, that would be hard... This whole process of Venom going nuts isn't going to be immediate, not like in Spider-man 3, where it's "Here, Boom-evil, gone." It'll be gradual... Probably come in on Spidey's 3rd-4th arc, then spend the next 2-3 arcs seemingly being an upgrade on Spidey, with him possibly showing the prelude of what's to come, gradually growing more mentally unstable, until the Venom arc actually starts, with Peter coming to terms with the fact that the symbiote is just too much power for him to control, which is when he removes the symbiote from the picture, much to its chagrin.

I want there to be a good couple of arcs of it being merely a tool for Spider-Man to use, showing that he, very much, loves the power it provides. People forget that, when peter first received it, during the Secret Wars, the symbiote wasn't evil. Far from it, the symbiote was a power boost to Peter, that most people found cool, including Peter himself. I would want there to be a part of this where the Symbiote was pretty much that, a welcome upgrade for Spider-man.
