I see why Rilla hates you all, slowly I am swinging to his side.

Hm.I thought in the OP it mentioned that players were able to summon minions and whatnot, as well as a 'general' or something. Though, I believe it mentioned that these could only be engaged in certain IC circumstances.


As a player, you can summon/create in your faction any number of “Minion” class or “Zero Level” creatures. These are the very basic and lowest tier of summoned/faction creatures. They cannot be commanded by you in combat and can be only given a basic order i.e. “Attack or Defend me.”

Your opponent will dispatch minion class creatures as they see fit and it does not take away from their normal attack in the fight. They are cannon fodder and as such will be treated this way.

You can have up to four Low Tier Leaders in your faction who fall under the normal rules for combat. Your opponent can defeat them but they must make an attack action as if they were normal low-tiered characters. These Leaders command the Minions.

You can have a single Equal Tiered faction/summoned character known as the General. This character will be treated as a normal non-critical character and can be commanded by you, however they cannot be the killing blow against your opponent nor can they do more damage than you do in a fight. They are always secondary to the main character or leader of the faction.

Factions are nice, but they are backdrop characters and support for the main character which should be you, they are not relevant and are expected to die horrible deaths in the course of the role-play. Hence, their status as non-critical characters, they should never be the focus of your fights, and should never take precedence over two critical characters in a fight.

Generic Zero tier NPCs that are used to flesh out a post are moddable by anyone regardless of the author as long as they are not a summoned or faction NPC. Faction and summoned NPC’s have their own rules sets.

Generic Zero tier NPCs have no inherent value other than to create drama and excitement in a post. If you are unsure about using NPCs ask the poster who has inserted them, if they are nothing more than flavor text you are able to use them as well in any manner that advances your post and the overall story in the thread.
Gado, WTF I said spaceships are backdrops, what part of that don't you understand? The gawddamn spaceships in the Angar-Ryllan thread are backdrops to the characters and nothing more than that.

Seriously I can see why a multiverse never gets traction here, everyone wants to do their own thing and not abide by the parameters for the purpose of the mutiverse which is strictly character vs character combat across a variety of settings and with diverse character concepts. Not space ships, not minions but the characters themselves. Everything else is just flavor for the fights.
Ok let me say it now as ASTA likes to say I am puling a tyrant. NO FRIKING SPACE SHIP SHIT if you want that start your own thread but not here, Alright?
Fleets are not characters. This is not a nation Role-play. Your ships are backdrops for the characters. Since I control the Angar-Ryllans it stands to reason if I am not using them perhaps you should not use them either.
I guess the bear is about to get involved in this here fight right quick.

And Beta...who is going to fight you in space? Why go through the process when it will never come into play. I doubt your ship will be anything other than a plot device so you can travel between planets/dimensions etc.
The power of the Fireen was amazing; clearly, he was as strong as General Freedom. The collision between the two men created a loud crash that on its own would have been impressive; however it was drowned out by the thunderous roar in the confined area of the building as General Freedom accelerated again.

The pressure of the blue man as he grasped and compressed the torso of the hero, at the same time draining ZPE from him, it was something that the all-American hero counted on. The speed reached the nearly 1,200 miles per hour as they raced away from the building in a shower of debris and sundry office equipment.

Twisting around, General Freedom’s ZPE shield was starting to give way because the Fireen was draining it, allowing the pressure of the sinewy arms that squeezed in a bear hug the advantage that they were unable to gain had the shield been at its peak.

However the star-spangled hero was not without his own considerable strength as his arms were clasped in a clench of their own, exerting a vice like grip, holding tightly for dear life as he pulled them up and around another sky-scraper, before spinning around and diving for the ground.

Rather they were headed for the bubble-bodied bear who was slurping up the dead. Gritting his teeth and making sure that the Fireen was below him as they rammed into the backend of the large wobbly bear. General Freedom was hoping to have the man under him peeled off by the mass of the bear as he raced scant inches over it.

In either case the whole lot of them would feel the impact as the two men raced into the bear at nearly 1,500 miles per hour.
Meh, I was in a fight once, with my Skallagrim persona when the guy after realizing that he didn't know crap about real fight mechanics and was about to get his head removed from his shoulders, whipped out some bovine scatological time warping power which he edited into the CS. claiming it was there to begin with. He teleported back a few feet negating his attack and then started a new attack.. LOL
Polyhemus look at the Nexus of Worlds multiverse character sheet. The first two low tier ranks are comparable to what Frokane is making reference to.
