Post #3.8675309: Test Your Might

Sister Shadow, another student who seemed to fade into the background of the larger group, approached Arsenal and the digitizer next. She essentially made herself shadows from the waist down and moved on a black ink or smoke like darkness beneath her. After she stepped out another female with a Czech accent, Gravitas, came forward. It seemed as if Shattercrash and Shuriken were finishing up and Alex stepped up to Arsenal as most of the others had already got suits made. Even the blonde kid that floats everywhere who picked the alias Warlock…

“Can I go next?” Alex asked again as another face at the academy that also sported a worn superhero suit came forward.

“I’ll fight him.” said the time lost hero Legion, stepping up to the front.

Arsenal grinned and liked seeing enthusiasm among the group. These two and the speedster came in with decently made super-suits that just needed upgrades. Roy could remember the guy in green, yellow, and black… he was some sort of time displaced hero from the 40’s. With the Justice Society trying and failing to rise up again in the superhero community, Titans Academy was his next best bet. The kid in the white hood though, Arsenal remembered the power set but the name just wasn’t coming to him.

“What was your alias again, bro?” he asked Alex.

“The Shield.” Alex replied proudly.

“Yeah… pretty sure the Red Circle Comics group would sue you into oblivion for that one. Gonna have to workshop something later.” Roy stated bursting the kids bubble. “You were the guy from the 40’s right?” he then asked turning to Legion before being interrupted by Switchblade.

Switchblade had eyes all over the place. Between Oracle, Flamebird, Gravitas, and Sister Shadow he didn’t know which one he wanted to try and impress. Most of the other students were talking amongst themselves about their new suits and what they wanted to try in the War Room, so Randall took his shot. He wanted to be the one to best Alex, as they grew up together in Midway and went to some of the same schools. He’d be damned if this guy who smelled like old people and polyester was going to get one over on him.

“I wanted to go against Alex in the War Room. Everybody thinks he’s team leader material… but I’M the guy who almost took down Polaris!” Switchblade got loud, making his case.

“You got lucky and speared him through the shoulder, I’ll give you that. Let’s make it interesting… we’ll put the three of you in the War Room...” Arsenal began to say before turning to the rest of the group, “...unless anybody else wants in on this one?! Who’s tired of standing around?”

"You didn't even get lucky, Randall. You're reckless and you're gonna get somebody hurt." Alex talked smack in the most polite of ways.

"The scenery's gonna be fake, but the beating I'm gonna give ya is gonna be real." Switchblade responded with a smirk looking over his shoulder to see if any of the girls were paying attention.

"This isn't Mortal Kombat, none of the objectives include hospitalizing your teammates. You want to see how tough you are work up the villain roster in the holo-droid settings. If you can beat level 8 metahumans and super criminals then I'll give you access to levels 9 and 10." Arsenal explained to try and deescalate the situation brewing.

"This isn't the 6th grade, he wants to scrap we can scrap. Back then my mom would've whipped me and grounded me for three weeks for getting into a fight at school. Guy's always been kind of a creep towards girls, and he's just generally a douchebag..." Alex thought before stepping into the digitizer and getting a new suit without a hood, or sleeves for that matter.

"That's an upgrade, I like that you went..." Arsenal began to comment before Switchblade shoulder checked Alex on his way into the digitizer.

"Douchebag isn't the right word..." Alex thought.

After a few moments Switchblade stepped out basically looking like a character from Mortal Kombat. Complete with the ninja-like mask.

"The digitizer is ready when you are, soldier." Arsenal said looking over to Legion before turning to the rest of the Academy students. "If anybody else wants in on the simulation, speak now or forever wait in line!"

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@Eviledd1984This is an original universe using the older Tommy Oliver and Billy Cranston as mentors. Right now they only spot we need filled is a female Ranger, the only color option is green...

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@Double I'm not as familiar with the Sentai stuff other than some bare basics, so if you're game throw a couple villain CS's up and shoot them to me in a PM. I'm getting super excited just thinking about this lol.

Also, totally give me suggestions for minions to face, cause all I know are things from the Zordon era.

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@Double I'm kinda shocked, but if anybody was gonna play villains in a Toku based RP and do it well I'd imagine you'd be at the top of the list. My original plan was for the other Red Dragon Ranger to be evil, and I even micro'ed a concept look for him. The thing with Scorpina and the former prince of the Machine Empire becoming king was just me trying to tie some of the history together from what I could remember.

If you've got some ideas I'd love to hear them. Shoot me a PM, or find me on Discord!

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@mattmanganon While the Gold Zeo Ranger was one of my all time favorites, I sorta need a human female to finish filling out the immediate cast. I had an idea for something else last night if you're interested in working a new concept into the general idea though. I'll shoot you a PM and see what you think...

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@Double I remember you being into Kamen Rider... you ever do anything with Power Rangers?

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@Dragonfly 9Accepted!

Looks like we've officially got our White and Black Dragon Force Rangers! @Martian



So with me already working on a Red Ranger, we've really only got room for a Green Ranger and maybe some sort of special Red Ranger similar to Time Force.

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@Martian Accepted! This is almost note for note what I had for a Black Ranger from a previous game, right down to the army brat thing. I don't think I made my Asian American a goth kid though, just moody.

@Dragonfly 9 I dig this character, but the Sample Post isn't quite the couple paragraphs w/some dialogue I was looking for. If you can give me a better Sample Post we can find a face claim for your guy.

I'm working on a CS [for the Red Dragon Ranger] now while waiting for my phone to charge. I've also got some images of the Red Dragon Thunderzord I'm gonna try to get recolored for the RP.

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

@PatientBean@Dragonfly 9@Martian@mattmanganon@Tyler Night (yes, cause you liked the opener you get tagged too LOL)

Character Sheets MUST include:

Name -
Color - (Red, Green, Black, or White)
Age - (16-18, cause we're in high school)
Face Claim -
Personality -
Skills -
Background/Brief Bio -
Villain of Choice - [ANY era Power Rangers villain]

And here's a quick peak on the micros/avatars I'm making for this...



I'm sure the color of Dragon Ranger doesn't matter for some of you but I'm looking forward to seeing what y'all come up with. I'm hoping the cast is something like the Breakfast Club of 2030.

If you're interested in playing villains exclusively or some of the supporting characters like equivalents to Bulk, Skull, or Ernie let me know! I've still gotta develop the Angel Grove of the future!

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

Like many other Power Rangers fans I was shocked to hear the news about the passing of Jason David Frank. I was kind of surprised there aren’t more PR themed roleplays or interest checks already on here. I’ve tried a few PR games in the past and usually the Mighty Morphin era was always what I drew from. I think I’ve finally got an idea for a more original type of team. If this takes off there’s limited space unless somebody wants to stop by once in a while for out of costume shenanigans or play some of the villains. As a lifelong PR fan I’d love to get something like this going for a longer period of time. So before I get emotional again thinking about the guy in real life, let’s do something different with the character of Tommy Oliver….

The year was 2030. Over three decades had passed since the Power Rangers had to protect the city of Angel Grove. Most of them had moved on with their lives. Tommy Oliver had earned a doctorate in paleontology, and in 2004 had a hand in the creation of the Dino Thunder Power Rangers in Reefside, California. He tried getting married, but always let the life of being a Ranger interfere. He moved back to Angel Grove years ago, and bought the land where Zordon’s old command chamber used to be located. He still had technology and artifacts from his time as different Rangers over the years, and it was kept in an underground bunker beneath his home. Dr. Oliver had got another teaching job as a science teacher, this time at Angel Grove High. To his surprise, Billy Cranston had also recently moved back to the area and was also teaching at the school.

Everything seemed to be going well, until it wasn’t. Someone or something had broken into the bunker of Tommy Oliver and swiped many of the items being stored there. Within weeks, it was clear that some alien or madman had started creating monsters. Oliver and Cranston used the remaining tech and their connection to the Morphin Grid to create another team of Power Rangers to protect Angel Grove and the rest of the world. Within weeks a portion of the city was decimated, but then the Dragon Force Rangers hit the scene.

The two elder Rangers were both pushing sixty and too old to do any fighting themselves so they did the best they could with what they had. The Dragon Morphers were somewhat mystical and technological in nature and sought out the students who would wield them. They would become the Red Dragon Ranger, the White Dragon Ranger, the Green Dragon Ranger, and the Black Dragon Ranger. Using designs from the Red Dragon Thunderzord as well as tech from the Dragonzord of the Green Ranger, four serpentine Dragonzords were built each with a secondary humanoid fighting mode.

Who were the enemies causing chaos and creating hybrid monstrosities? An older Scorpina as well as the now adult King Sprocket of the Machine Empire, in possession of the staff of Rita Repulsa and the stolen tech of Tommy Oliver!

So… who’s still with me? I’m kinda surprised a similar gimmick like this hasn’t been tried yet, and I’m still not entirely sure what the powers will be for each of the different Dragon Rangers and Zords. A few other Ranger fans from work gave me some inspiration and I just had to get something down while the idea was still fresh on my mind. I miiiight take an additional Red Dragon Ranger into consideration since the colors are based on the Rangers JDF portrayed and he played two different Red Rangers [Zeo and Turbo], but I’ll have to figure out how to make it special without making it too OP. Maybe a future descendant of one of the characters becomes the Red Dragon Ranger in the future and comes back to the past or something.

So this will be a smaller scale RP, probably with the same episodic type format that I’ve used often to further plots and character development in roleplays. If there’s interest I’ll post a CS template and we’ll try to get this going before the holiday weekend if possible.
