Bleach: Burning Flame

@Mugin Well, here's the idea for my character:

All of the Espada are supposed to represent an aspect of death. I was going to make an Espada, the former #1, who's aspect of Death is "Peace". Naturally, he was #1 for no other reason than because it was damn near impossible to beat him in battle, due to his release being to create a bubble around them, inside the bubble is a realm called "Strawberry Fields". A realm of pure Reiatsu, where he pretty much makes all of the rules. Rules like:

1) Impossible to Die
2) Impossible to feel pain
3) Everybody has to be nice to Oneanother.

When he was an Espada, he would transport the others there until they gave up and he took their number. He's a pacifist. Naturally, eventually, Aizen got sick of his shit and kicked him out. He's not the kind of guy to go in balls-blazing, kicking ass and taking names. He's more the kind to sit down, make a pot of tea and try to talk it out, then, when the angry bastards tell him where to shove his tea, he just transports them to the Strawberry fields until he they are ready to talk.

Of course, I fully expect the big-bads of the RP to be able to break the Strawberry Fields bubble, which will be his "Oh shit" moment. After which, he will have to actually assume his combat form. His combat form being rather silly but as powerful as one might expect.

I'm trying to go for the Comic-relief that is secretly a super-OP badass that all Shonen have. I believe the trope name is "Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass"

Orias couldn't see the Jedi, but he could certainly feel her. He then heard the unmissable sound of a Lightsaber igniting. He stayed perfectly still, then slowly looked over as a flash of purple was caught in the corner of his eye. He looked over to see a rather young girl charging him. "Poodoo..." he seethed. He wasn't sure it was him that was her target, until she was rather close, it was then that his lightsaber flew into his hand, igniting and knocking away her initial thrust, before jumping high into the air and landing on the roof of the canteena before jumping away to a neon-sign for a casino, it was on the side of one of the skyscrapers too tall to see the top, that litered Couscant. She had seen his face. This was bad. Very, very bad. He turned to see her in hot pursuit. Luckily, as the ship flies, they were less than a mile from the space-port. Unluckily, on foot, it was about 5 miles. As he landed on the neon sign, he pointed back to her, still on the canteena roof. He threw his arms wide, indicating that it would be foolish to jump, he had the high ground. He had a moment to figure his next move... Or at least, he would, if he didn't see another Jedi pushing his way through the crowd down the street. "Not good..." he looked upwards, there was a balcony about 20 meters upwards, then a skyway 30 meters above that. He quickly sheethed his lightsaber and jumped to the balcony, only just making it, gripping with his metal hand, he pulled himself up, then jumped up again in another fluid movement. but this time, he landed on a flag-pole that stuck from the side of the 10-mile-high skyscraper, before using it as leverage to jump to the skyway tunnel, the roar of air-speeders whooshed by at hundreds of miles per hour.

Pulling himself up into the tunnel, he was just on the inner shoulder. He looked down to see the girl follow him, he ignited his lightsaber and started running through the tunnel, the air was freezing, due to the immense amount of wind that the speeders were making. Thanks to his thermalated armour, he was at a relatively comfortable temperature everywhere except his face. As he ran along, he timed his jump to the passing of the cars, then looked back to see the Jedi just catching up with him. He then jumped onto the roof of an Air-speeder. He kept low as he was carried off in a hurry, he looked around, watching the city pass by in almost a blur. It was at this point that the driver noticed him and the speeder started descending to a street bellow. Just before it touched down, Orias jumped off and continued running along the street towards the space-port. He noticed a few guards. They saw his red lightsaber and both raised their blasters, firing at him, he ducked and weeved, deflecting blaster bolts where he could, but as he got close to the gate to the space-port, he raised his hand, before clenching his fist tight. The two guards flew straight into each other, hard enough to knock the wind and weapons from them. He vaulted over their unconscious bodies and ran into the port. Several people scattered as they saw his ignited lightsaber. More guards. 3 extended shock-battons and rushed him. He parried the first batton with his lightsaber and sent the guard spinning away, before the second one attack him. He managed to hit the batton upwards, before giving him a kick to the stomach. But, at that point, a Shock-batton was stuck in his back he let out a paint grunt, before swinging his lightsaber around, forcing the guard to remove the batton from his back. He threw the guard against the wall with a force-push, but this had given the Jedi girl enough time to catch up. He sheethed his lightsaber and began to run. She would enter the gate, just in time to see him vault a turnstyle towards the shipyards. An alarm blared as he did so.

He stumbled into the shipyard and looked around at all of the ships. He began running through the many ships that were anchored. A few pleasure-yachts, a few diplomatic ships and a few fighters. The Jedi was coming. he had to choose fast... That's when he spotted the ship he wanted. He smirked as he gazed upon the older fighter. Jumping in it, he flicked the controls and waved a pair of fingers at her as the ship sped out of the hanger and out into open sky.

Awww... I love playing the Research captain...

Are rogue Espada out of the question?

Bleach RP anyone?

Are former Espada open to play?

Original rp idea

So, is this going to take place in modern-day, but then they'll get transported to a medieval fantasy setting?

Coruscant... A hive of scum and villainy of which the Galaxy had never been seen. The difference between Coruscant and any other world, though, is that every underhanded deed and dirty deal was completely legal. Orias hated being here, this was the Jedi's backyard. Chances are, they already sensed his strong Force presence, a rather grey one at that. But, there was a man claiming to be selling the authentic Lightsaber belonging to Darth Vader from before he fell to the Dark Side. It was common knowledge that he was a Jedi that fought in the Clone Wars, but that he was Anakin Skywalker was a secret known only to very few people. The worst part was that he sensed no deceit when watching the ad over the Link-Net. He wore A black outfit with a long cloak, underneath, he had his Durasteel upper body-armour. Ultimately, any Jedi that looked at him would know he was a Dark Jedi, as such, dressing inconspicuously was pointless. This wasn't the waning years of the Old Republic, when the Dark Side clouded their vision. There was no sith lord sitting under their nose.

Walking through the streets, nobody gave him a second glance, he was exhuding a shadow field around himself, he wasn't invisible, it's just that the weak minded couldn't notice him. He walked through to a canteena and stepped inside. He remembered the code to get the seller to notice. He walked over to the 3rd booth next to the window and sat down. A Waiter droid approached him. "Whadya want?" it snorted in a manner befitting the locals.

"I want the Dueback Steak in Gundark cheese sauce, but hold the meat." he said, offhand. The protocol droid leaned back up into a default position, it made a beeping noise, then it sat down.

"So you are the buyer? I promise you, any fan of Vader's work is gonna LOVE this." it said, The droids eyes started glowing and a projection of a Lightsaber came up on the table.

"I want to inspect the merchandise for myself." Orias said.

"Yeah, like i'm gonna leave it in the possession of some stupid droid. It's safe for now. You want it, you're gonna have to give me some collateral. Give the Droid... Lets say 10,000 credits and it will lead you to me. After that, you can inspect the merch and I can get paid." Orias closed his eyes and reached out with his invisible hands, he could almost follow the voice from the robot back to the source of where the man was broadcasting from. He could feel the mans thoughts... They were odd. He flinched a little as he tried to force himself further into the mans thoughts. Most of his thoughts were benign... How he was going to buy another freighter... His dinner plans for later... How this guy was such a chump for believing any old story. Orias immediately snapped back to reality.

"No thanks." he said, getting up. The droid reached out and grabbed his hand.

"This is once in a lifetime." it said. "I can see you're a trustworthy guy, tell you what, just for you, I'll knock the collateral down to just 3000 credits, you can't say fairer than that." Orias ripped his hand from the droids grasp, before staring daggers into its receptors.

"I said no..." he said, slowly. He then slowly walked away, out of the canteena. He leaned against the wall outside and wiped his brow. Now he was stuck on a planet filled with Jedi with nothing to show for this extreme risk and no clear method offworld at this very moment. He would need to find a ship and find it fast. He began to walk down the street towards the closest Space-port. He then stopped dead in his tracks and looked around. He could sense a Jedi's presence... Fight or Flight time... He looked around trying to find the Jedi to see if they had spotted him.

@Sohtem Well, she's already missing her arm, so that cuts out one of the more gruesome of initiation rituals.

But you will have trouble figuring out where we stand...

Alright, i'll stop with the Zapp Brannigan quotes. But's just so damn funny.

Star Wars: Rise of the New Empire (Accepting new players)

@Sohtem Interesting. Tell me, would you like Orias to tell you about our lord and Savior, Darth Vader? Because I would like to work out a scene, maybe him trying to convince her to join The Neutral side.

Whether she turns or not is your choice, but I think the scene would be fun in any event.

@Frengo "Even in Death, i'm still Alpharius" - Mantra of the Alpha Legion Dreadnoughts

"The Gol'Kut Crusade" - A Warhammer 40K RP of the 42nd millennium

@Jbcool Dude, every Alpha Legions marine is Alpharius.

Important Lesson on Alpha Legions

Every Alpha Legions marine looks physically identical. By drinking the blood of Alpharius, they actually grow as large as a Primarch. And because nobody has ever truly seen him out in the open, without a single shadow of a doubt that it is him, every AL can safely be assumed to be him. It is actually implied that he is, physically, the size of a regular Marine, but can grow by drinking his own blood. That's why he is such a tricky bastard to kill. Chances are, if you think you've killed him, it's probably just one of his mooks that had a little sip of the good stuff.

When I went to Warhammer World with a friend of mine, I saw a big case filled with 30k Alpha Legions. I asked one of the guys that worked there "So, which one is Alpharius?" he then just waved his hand at the case and replied "Pick one."

It's a popular joke to just state that every single being in the universe, unless proved otherwise, is Alpharius.
