Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

GM takes over and decides what the minions do.
Kind of wishing that the person that started the fight would finish it. Or continue it. Since it's too obvious to just... ignore.

He is both a blessing and an obstacle for his allies. being that he is human for all intents and purposes, he can't take on most of these big supervillains in a straight fight, as such, he is a support character. > > He is a character that provides moral support to the crew and a character that you may or may not choose to deal with. And dealing with him will be a challenge for your characters. You have to say to yourself "This is the most charming man in the universe, a man that can charm a zombie woman into becoming a vegetarian. How do I deal with him, yet stay true to the character?" See, one thing I love about Multiverse RP's is that they are throwing characters into situations that they have never dealt with before and seeing how they get out of it. Example, in one of the RP's on the old forum, we had Ezio from Assassins Creed getting chucked into the Pokemon world. He caught a bunch of bird pokemon to help himself, then used them to help him try to defeat Darth Vader. In the same RP, Tommy from Power Rangers had to go up against some Stormtroopers, and there was a whole moral dilemma part, since Tommy has never actually killed a human being before. > > So, the rules have changed. This man is like nothing your characters have ever encountered before. Most of you don't believe he can exist outside of a badly written spy novel. The big dilemma for those around Ace is "How does your character react to a black-hole sue? Do they fight him? Embrace him? Try to kill him before he can infect you?" I specifically love the idea of one character becoming aware of Aces effect on them and trying, every time they see him, not to start giggling like a lovesick schoolgirl. > > >"Oh god there he is... I'm not going to do it this time." thought Ryuko. "Not this time." > > > >"Well hello there, little lady." Ryuko started to giggle before grabbing her own mouth shut. Ace looked puzzled at her but simply patted her on the head and walked away. Ryuko continued to hold her mouth. > > > >"What a guy." Senketsu sighed. Ryuko then let her hand down from her mouth and, with a lovesick expression mumbled > > > >"I know-DAMMIT!!!" she exclaimed as she quickly realized that it had done something to her. > > I dunno, I thought it could be a bit of fun. If people really don't like him, i'll leave him out, but I thought he could be a fun character for people to play off. I mean, people absolutely love Deadpool being in RP's like this. Deadpool is a gamechanger for any character outside of Marvel... And most characters inside Marvel... Absolutely despise Deadpool being in things like this, because 99% of the time, people get it horribly, *horribly* wrong. And what you're saying is that you think it's amusing to force everyone to act massively OOC around a character that exists just to be a comedic parody. Have you considered that maybe, just maybe, enforced stupidity in a non-100%-comedy RP is bad?

> Just waiting on the word for Kiss-Shot. Whenever you're ready, VVAR, no rush. > > I really want to put up a Jojo's character, but the kind that I want to play are the sort that are stupidly broken in person-to-person combat. I don't think you'd accept the ability to atomize anything on contact, VVAR, so I won't bother writing up Kira. Maybe Diavolo (time erasure and precognition) or post-Requiem Giorno (reduce anything to zero) could kinda work as Shadow Eternity members, though the latter would be trying to subvert it toward more humanitarian goals. You're joking about Gold Experience Requiem, right?
> > Vita, since you're likely familiar with the series, is it alright to apply Arcueid Brunestud(Or a True Ancestor)? I just want to run the character concept by you beforehand, as it seems there has been some debate on characters and if they would be allowed before. I'd like to know so I can apply someone else if they're not okay. > No, no it isn't. Not at all. Why would you even think an essentially indestructible and incredibly dangerous (when not anywhere near full strength!) vampire is acceptable?

It's almost as if we were on the same wave-length...But then this.They may not explode. Or they may not have any effect. Or their magic is just a light-show. The important part is that outside of their universe their cut off from the source of their power and now in a new universe with new natural rules. They most likely can not draw from their old rules and there's something in the new universe that commands them.Now, perhaps in this higher plane there's something that can allow them to use their power. In a literary sense this may create an incentive for people to act more since it comes with a reward of being connected to this as-of-yet-unknown-plot device. And with there being so many unaffiliated characters it'd be an extra material weight for when they feel naked without magic missile as they know it.This also allows for a sense of balance between abilities. No one has the useful loopholes writers eventually write into their own magical systems so the hero can defeat the villain at the end. This creates a mechanical balance and keeps already wild abilities in check.And no one may have ever brought it up because no one stopped to think about how disastrous someone joining as a character with infinite mind-reading potential can be and who can summon black-holes on a whim without any thought of how this happens in their universe in the first place and if it's compatible. Or folk are too polite and afraid of offering out feedback, as I've seen here. There's a lot of confusion about giving criticism with being rewd.


Summation: 'blahblah must homogenise, assuming the gm won't gm so all powers must be innately balanced because BACKGROUND'.

I could also point out the lack of definition in the thread itself which leaves a lot to be interpreted. So there's not only a large diversity in abilities people may choose to have; which may or may not compliment each other in the literary sense. Given these characters come from their own worlds with their own magical rules, and we now expect them all to work in one setting will lead to a lot, "Well the rules of my character's world has this exception for that therefore I can win". There's nothing re-defining the perimeters of power or ability, and regulates that. At least in a story-telling capacity.


Stop being antagonistic towards the DM. :|

All these god tier characters... I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit scared! (And a bit ashamed I didn't pick Gilgamesh as my character...)


Gil wouldn't have been accepted. I asked.
I think we're waiting on seeing if the mooks listen and obediently shuffle off--or get led off--right now. XD
