The Jest

Children of Plunder (Space Pirate RP)

If you told me you wanted him to join the boarding party then I would have had him do so. It didn't make sense to me to have him do so because he has no weapons and as a doctor, he had an oath not to harm others unless it was a mercy kill. I didn't believe he had a real reason to go on to the hostile ship.

@BKburke

All of your objectives are simple enough: Serve, Knight, Fae, Rain, Con, Rom, and Snake, the Boarding party, are to board the Merchant Ship and take every bit of loot off them that you can find. In addition, if possible, I want you to capture and bring back the crew of that ship to this one alive. Chef and Doc, you guys are to join the Boarding party take whatever medical supply and food you feel you need to properly do your jobs.

@The Jest

I understand that first post was Very long, and so I don't blame you for skimming through it, which is why when you made him do something else, I improvised as a result. But let it be known that it WAS ordered by the Captain that he be with the Boarding Party.

@Bishop I suspect a ship like this have a few cargo holds and storage rooms should be a few general ones around with that. Ranna is doing some scanning of the ship and has mentioned what she is doing and she is in the same group as Gold so feel free ask her. Hope that helps ^^

@Silvir

Indeed. Honestly, the thought of specific designs for the merchant ship didn't really occur to me. It's not going to matter much at the moment since as soon as we're done with it, it'll get blasted to pieces anyways. So the lot of you are free to shape it however you wish to.

As for the Typhon, well, @Windstormugly was thinking about making a blueprint of the ship, course some updates would likely have to be made thanks to everyone's help with said design. If anybody could make a proper blue print of the ship's interior (The REAL ship exterior in mind, not the outer shell one) and save him some effort, it would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I'm pretty much done with my post. Therefore, I'm giving the rest of the people who haven't posted yet this cycle, (@Windstormugly @Tal0n and @Hazy) 24 hours to post before I move on. Depending on circumstances, I may extend it to an extra 24, but I'm posting on Tuesday no matter what.

@BKburke is excluded in the wake of his character not having much to do. (Which is why I originally intended on him coming with the Boarding party to begin with.)

@Petulant Please don't spoil it. I mean, what is life without mystery? Like a game where you have the hacks to everything. Gets veeeery boring super quick.

@Bishop

Not to worry, we're very good at keeping secrets.

Also, @CriticalHit, You are officially and unanimously Green-lighted. You may make your intro post to the IC, ASAP. ^_^

Devil's Advocates (Saving the world...by burning it down!)

Just this and the Space Pirate one for now. XD

Devil's Advocates (Saving the world...by burning it down!)

@CriticalHit Maybe I was wrong in the first place

@Warborn123

You are, but I do agree with @CriticalHit, good try nonetheless. I do believe that kind of thing is actually something I had planned for another RP, although I don't remember. Either way, for another time. XD

Also, We are waiting on @Ragrar, @Red Helix, and my two partners, both I'm betting are waiting for these three.

@A Blue Chord has a character that is converted later rather than right now, so he doesn't have to post yet if he doesn't want to.

@CriticalHit: Looks good, but I'm still gonna need to talk with my partners about it first. I apologize for not doing so yet; I've been having a bit of a busy few days of late. X_X

@Warborn123 @Bishop

... *Ahem*

Speaking as a Christian myself, I believe for the most part in both points presented by you both.

I believe that God is a being who, if he truly believed our desires were a mistake, would have removed them by now. He has the capabilities to do this as he is all-powerful. He could remove all the evils of the world if he wanted to, much like what the angels have done now in this RP, or he could wipe us all out and essentially push the reset button for life on earth. He's done it before after all, if not via the Great Flood, then by the Asteroid that killed the dinosaurs. (Yes, I'm both a believer of God and Evolution. Christian-Science for life.) He sees value in Desire, the source of all sin, as what could be considered a "necessary evil"...even if some do not see such value.

However, I also believe that, indeed, the Lord HAS changed...But in the exact opposite way that Warborn here suggests. Anybody remember the Old Testament? When God decided to take personal action whenever his children go against his teachings, Said Flood, Banishment of Adam and Eve from Eden, cursing Cain for killing Abel, the Tower of Babel, turning someone into a pillar of salt, the Plagues of Egypt, etc.

Once upon a time, God saw our problematic nature and decided to do something about it every time Humans commit a big no-no. But ever since Jesus Christ was crucified and resurrected, suddenly he's not quite as active and into the matters of man any longer. Oh, I believe he still intervenes in subtle ways to help people, but he doesn't get directly involved in their affairs any longer.

But that's just my personal take on the Religion, the both of you are free to differ and believe what you wish. Plus I'm not a big fan of the whole constant religious debate thing and all that, so I'd appreciate leaving the debate here.

NOW THEN, To answer your question, Bishop: "Is God Gone?" I would rather not say, other than in a cryptic way: Yes and No at the same time. You'll understand it all in due time, but for now, all I can really say is that he's both still around and gone at the same time in this case.

As for your other question: Yes, a "Rebel" angel is very likely. ...In fact, we already have an idea of that.

As for me in regards of posts...I'm waiting on everyone else. XD

All OC's Welcome

Mmm. Well, unless someone else likes to, I can create a drama-spawning faction >.>

@ArenaSnow

I would also like to volunteer, if no one minds. I also don't mind working together with someone else. ^_^

All OC's Welcome

Limiting myself to a maximum of one for the moment.

Any plot, direction, clear antagonist?...

@ArenaSnow

I would like to ask the same. I'm a sucker for Modern-fantasy settings, but I would like to know if there's any clear story yet.

Devil's Advocates (Saving the world...by burning it down!)

@The Jest Well first of all, he'd only be able to drain from one target at a time (may change later on as he gains experience). The rate of said drain wouldn't be enough to make someone pass out within seconds, more so make a target more fatigued & sluggish. (again, may change with time / experience) Furthermore, he'd only be able to handle so much built-up energy in himself at a time. The energy drained would not be able to change forms (i.e electrical to chemical to kinetic) at least at the start. He'd also need to be careful to not "overcharge" someone / something or risk damage to said person or thing.

EDIT: Why did I think it would be a good idea to write this out on mobile?!

@CriticalHit

You'd be amazed what you can do on a mobile. That first post on the OOC? I made that using only my Wii U tablet. XD

As for the limitations, I'll need to discuss them with my partners. But I don't think there will be too much problems with those in mind. So I suggest you make your CS in the meantime. ^_^

Devil's Advocates (Saving the world...by burning it down!)

@The Jest Well then I won't use fear, just so there's no dissonance between player and GM. How does energy absortion / redistribution sound? I have a few ideas to limit the power level just in case it sounds too OP.

@CriticalHit

Hmm...Well, I would like to hear those ideas. ^^
