The Skies of Elysia: Airships, Aliens, and Adventure [STEAMPUNK, SCI-FI, HIGH FANTASY}

Sample C/S Tab has been added.

Character Creation
--------------
Name: Your characters full name and nickname
Age: Age doesn't really matter, Mankind has existed in Elysia for over a 1000 years and some races were here much earlier.
Race: Any you can think of. If you want to use a canon race, it will be part of Empires Tab (Coming soon)
Culture: If you are none human race, give a short description of their culture, helps with world building.
Appearance Picture or Description
Occupation/Concept How would your character describe themselves? Is he a fighter pilot, a prophet, a priest, a captain, a mercenary, a monster catcher, a demon hunter. Skies the limit here.
Training: List and describe atleast 3 particular skill sets your character is proficient at. They dont have to be just weapons.
Powers: As an exalted you divine gifts with your status. You are considered physically superior to others of your race, but your power manifests in other more spectacular ways. List 5. These can be particular spells you can cast or magical effects you can use. Try to be creative. You could go for a particular theme and be a master of one thing or you can grab bag of alot of different effects. As an Exalted, any power or magic is capable of being acquired through study or training. Listed examples will be in the Exalted and Magic Tabs. Coming soon.
Equipment: At the very least, unless they are from some backwater feral world your character has a universal translator implant (for understanding languages of others) and a PDA of some variety. Your PDA is essentially a smart phone. You can save info on it, contact people, play games, and if you are near a planet that has a network, you have access to the internet (Which may or may not be restricted) Sometimes ships will also have their own network, but only whats saved in the ships database is able to be accessed, sometimes with security restrictions.
Anything else, is good to go. Weapons, Armor, Gadgets, Implants, Magical Artifacts, Magitech, Cybernetics, Special clothes, all that gets listed here.
Airship: It's perfectly fine to not have an airship, trust me there will be plenty. Look to the Airships tab for examples. Coming soon. Again picture or description
Motivation: What drives your character in life and what is their personal goal in this world?
Personality: How your character acts. Be as broad or specific as you like.
Flaws: All great heroes have tragic flaws. Substance abuse, PTSD, you cant fly a ship to save your life, or you just don't get along with people due to trust issues. If your race has a particular weakness
Bio: Your character's personal history and major points in their life. There will be very little I wont allow for someones backstory. Feel free to use worlds, races, empires, and events, again world building.
Extra Info: Anything more, maybe a pet, a personality quirk, an asset you can utilize?

Good show on the collab.

A Guild Adventure: An RP with Monster Girls! (ENDED)

I see that Apply is still in bold.

I'm wondering if you've room for another player. I understand the RP has had alot of history, but I'd still like to participate if I can.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Government Sanctioned Superheroes

I will probably tag everyone in the fight in my post.

BUUUUUUUTTT

Who'd be up for having a scene after the fact?

The Skies of Elysia: Airships, Aliens, and Adventure [STEAMPUNK, SCI-FI, HIGH FANTASY}

I'll try to post as much info as I can within the next 48 hours. I apologize for the wait.

We have more than 10 interests! And I really want you all to have a blast with this.

The numbers will make it interesting and I might need a CO-GM later when we get this thing off the ground.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Government Sanctioned Superheroes

@Delta44@Prosaic

I promise Dawn wont come find you both for afternoon training until after your scene.

Maybe...

The Skies of Elysia: Airships, Aliens, and Adventure [STEAMPUNK, SCI-FI, HIGH FANTASY}

@Sunbather

Oh and another thing, group collaborations on how do obtain certain goals and overcome certain obstacles are greatly greatly encouraged. We'll probably use a collabpad program.

<Snipped quote by ShwiggityShwah>

Just for the players' sake, I'd like to ask: would there be anything in particular that may require the GM's consultation? c: We wouldn't want to do things which might accidentally change the story, after all XD

@Delta44

I'll write them out as rules but I plan to work with each and every character to make them special, unique, and fill a niche in the group.

There will be limits on powers of course, but there are two hard NO GO LIMITS on what can and cant be done in universe.

TIME TRAVEL! There could be powers involving time, looking into the past or trying to predict the future, but this is sketchy and unreliable at the best of times.

DEAD IS DEAD! There is no way to bring anyone back from the dead. Once they are gone, that's it. Legendary Heroes have tried, and it's considered a capital offense and the gravest of acts to try and do so.

Other than that, particularly large assets and airships will require consultation. It's possible that the characters may have an airship fleet, but I want to make sure its balanced.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Government Sanctioned Superheroes

Probably can't post til tomorrow. I'm going to have Dawn do his poses for the evening news before coming back to the Horizon cafeteria to tell the story to everyone who missed it.

The Skies of Elysia: Airships, Aliens, and Adventure [STEAMPUNK, SCI-FI, HIGH FANTASY}

@Sunbather

Im going to give you active participation in the story, with the ability to adjust the scene for narrative appeal. If you need to blow something up for your post, you can probably go ahead and do it. If you need to show off some sick wrestling moves on some NPC guards, you totally can.

So like you said, I'll narrate the scenes and changes for each character or group, probably splitting my posts between them for each group. Ill try to be as specific and detailed as possible, using pictures to better narrate the scene, most of the time offering paths and choices and things to interact with. There will be no, go down path A, turn over at path B kind of thing, get back on path A.

But again, if you need to do something that changes things a bit, I'm going to let you do it and Ill react and change the scenes accordingly.

I hope I'm answering your question.

The Skies of Elysia: Airships, Aliens, and Adventure [STEAMPUNK, SCI-FI, HIGH FANTASY}

I'm interested! Will this be player-driven or have a clear narrative?

@Sunbather

I'll basically give you some background and plot along with a clear motivation and endstate. Where that leads and how they get there will be up to the characters.

They might even change the story direction with little hooks here and there.
