STILL ACCEPTING

In the various universes of the Gundams two mobile dolls seek to bring all together to test their fate...A mysterious duo test humanity's role and to see if they can come to a consensus and prove they are worthy of the roles they play. One looks like the ancient japanese Samurai in his orange armor and helmet with a long spear and The other is European with a shield and sword and cape. Both of them have one goal: Fight to bring peace to the galaxy and bring 'eternal prosperity' now on their planet set up into different states from various universes there is a Citadel, a desert, a junk yard, a space station, a city, and many bases hidden and dispersed throughout the planet....

You are a pilot who is to be a pawn in this game of theirs and your goal is to return home and figure out what is happening...Will you fail and allow the other groups to face their fears and try to solve this mess...or will you succeed and solve the problem the three mysterious gundam mobile dolls. You will face people you've never heard of or seen before. Fight gundams and mobile dolls inferior and superior to your own in many ways. Legends will be resurrected from various universes Char Aznable, Amuro Ray, Judau Ashta, Jerid Messa, Kira Yamato, and others of the like. This is your journey and together you will find the way out of this place....

===================

This will be a All Era Multi Universe Gundam rp there will be custom characters but no custom gundams or over powered gundams which I will list below and add some later depending on what I deem overpowered. We will all start off in our own universes and proceed to find a signal to which we fly to it and end up blacking out inside out mobile suits. We will wake up in a base of operations complete with barracks, intel rooms, operation bay, and the like. We will be fighting other gundams and mobile suit pilots including Char Aznable, Amuro Ray, Judav Ashta, Setsuna S Saia, Ribbions Almark, Kamile, and the like. However some mobile suits, and pilots if need be, will be weakened slightly to give the player a better chance at winning.

===================
List of Gundams not allowed:
Some mobile fighters (Shadow Gundam, Master Gundam, Burning/Shining gundam and a few others for power reasons)
Mobile armors (Big and nasty and simply just made for wiping the whole of battalions out)
Turn A and Turn X (Loran's and Gym's gundams are simply way over powered with the power to conjure up nukes, use the shining finger, and wipe out technology within a span from Earth to Jupiter yeah...)
Dark gundam: Simply the only things capable of annhilating Mobile Fighters and the Turns it rivials in power.

List of Allied Grunt suits:
http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/GNX-609T_GN-X_III - recovered 5
http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/OZ-06MS_Leo - recovered 63 (make shift mobile doll system)
http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/GAT-01A1_Dagger - 110 left on board the Sundown in operation condition. Original Amount was 229 Suits
http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/MVF-M11C_Murasame - 7 Left
http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/RGE-B790_Genoace - 15 left

Based on stolen plans of the http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/LHM-BB01_Minerva, and th http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/Gondwana-class_carrier but differs greatly from the original sizes of both ships in that it was made for mass mobile suit holding to take on entire groups of the ZAFT Armed forces at once but also be able to fight enemies and thus it was added with weapon systems and its own internal and external layout. It is grey and light blue. The inside is closer to the Archangel Class Battleship rather than the Minerva.- The Sundown - Used by Captain Jason to carry his units and crew into battle. It has been increased from it's earlier size to fit a larger crew and more mobile suits to match other carriers.

Info on the ship's layout

Spoiler

It’s up to you. You can bunk on the officer's quarters or the grunt barracks with Desil and Julian.
The sundown's layout is this

Back of the ship = Normal set up like sleeping quarters, matinence rooms, and the like. The bridge has its own elevator and walkway up to it. The Tanhauser cannon is controlled by the bridge crew.
Front of the ship = mass storage of mobile suits with repair facilities and the like. It is built to store extremely large amounts of mobile suits and thus it has been altered. The bottom of the ship opens to reveal a bay door. Where mobile suits can drop out if they don't have time to catapult into the battlefield. However each section also has openings like a white base hanger where the metal slides open to reveal a hatch for those on a different floor. We have about some 200 Mobile suits crammed into it.
---------

Here’s the layout for the floors basically going from bottom to top.
Bottom of the ship - Extra storage space and is heavily armored
1st Floor - Medical bay
2nd floor - Storage area
3rd floor - Communications and Matinence rooms
4th floor - Officer's quarters / Mess Hall
5th floor - Gunner rooms (People who control the turrents and their matinence areas as well)
6th floor - Reactor room and power configurations
7th floor - Main Armory (However there are some guns around the ship itself)
8th floor - Barracks or general quarters for all staff. Quarter Master is also in this area.
----
Each floor has a door leading directly into the hanger which is on multiple floors and has four walk ways leading up or down depending on where you need to go and to allow room for people during battle who need to launch. There are three doors between the hanger bay and the main ship. One that exits the crew part of the ship. One that leads into the changing rooms on each floor for pilots. Then there is one door that actually leads to the hanger. In battle all three doors are opened if there is a rush via command console on the bridge. The three doors are to make sure an explosive blast does not reach the other end of the ship or at least dampen the damage if it happens.

Mattias's Grunts
http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/0083/ms-06f2.htm - Zaku ll F2 Type
=========================

Rules:

1. Listen to the GM because I will be fair in judging things as long as you are not making a huge deal over it.
2. All basic RP rules apply to this roleplay: Power playing, Meta gaming, and others are not allowed. Nerfing more powerful mobile suits will be used to make things fare.
3. No overpowering your mobile suit it will be hurt and you will, maybe, not killed but if your shot down by say Char Aznable or Judau Ashta your gundam will be repaired or whatever you are piloting. This is going for a more realistic approach and to add challenge so you're not flying around killing people in a ball.
4. First Tiers are only allowed for the moment. We voted for upgrading as we go along if we're in mid rp and you joined you will be given the mid tier mobile suit or the high tier if you join when we start then you will need the three gundams or mobile suits you will be using. You have the option of picking a mobile suit with no evolution but you will be stuck with it for the rest of the rp. If you cannot commit do not join.
5. Get into your character's skin become him or her as you are playing have fun and give us insight this is a mid casual level rp and its standards reflect that.

Paul Lyons

Spoiler

Name: Paul Lyons
Character's Age: 20

Characters Gundam/Mobile Suit:

First Gundam: GAT-X56S Impulse Gundam

Spoiler

■MMI-GAU25A 20mm CIWS
Like most other mobile suits, the Impulse also mounts two MMI-GAU25A 20mm CIWS guns to shoot down incoming missiles or enemy units at close range. While most other suits have these CIWS guns installed in their heads, the Impulse instead mounts these guns in its chest.
■M71-AAK "Folding Razor" Anti-armor Knife
For close combat, the Impulse is equipped with two M71-AAK "Folding Razor" anti-armor knifes, which are stored in the hip armor of the suit when not in use. While not realy effective against weapons like beam sabers, it is nonetheless capable of cutting into the armor of another mobile suit.
■MMI-RG59V Mobile Shield
For defense, the Impulse mounts a single physical MMI-RG59V mobile shield on its left arm, a feature which is similar to most other suits. The Impulse's shield however is far more advanced than that on most other suits. It usually is rather small, but it can expand and be reinforced by a beam-deflecting energy barrier, which grants the shield enhanced defense, even against strong beam attacks.
■MA-BAR72 High-energy Beam Rifle
The Impulse usually uses a single MA-BAR72 high-energy beam rifle for ranged combat, a feature similar to most other advanced mobile suits. When not in use, this rifle is stored on the back of the suit, underneath the Silhouette pack.
System Features
■Variable Phase Shift Armor
While the Earth Alliance developed the TP armor to save energy, Paul's Father went in a different direction, with a combination of improved batteries and Variable Phase Shift Armor (VPS). Variable Phase Shift allows the MS to automatically alter the strength and by extension the power consumption of a Mobile Suit's PS Armor automatically, depending on what combat configuration that MS is in. As a result, the MS's colors changes. Unlike Strike Rouge's color-shifting PS, VPS is capable of changing its strength in the field.
■Deuterion Beam Energy Transfer System
The Deuterion beam energy transfer system is a wireless energy transfer system built into the Second Stage Series and their support ship, the Archangel-class battleship. The system allows a mobile suit that is properly lined up with the Sundown to receive a recharge while in the field, meaning that if the mobile suit runs low on power during a battle it can be quickly recharged without coming into the ship's hanger. The transfer system if very efficient requiring only a few seconds before the mobile suit is fully recharged. Still on a battlefield even a few seconds could mean death so it is advisable for a machine to only perform the maneuver when they have covering fire.
■Hardpoints for Silhouette Packs
While the other suits of the Second Stage series are capable of transforming into a mobile armor mode, the Impulse instead is similar to the Strike in the fact, that it can adapt to different situations by using exchangeable Silhouette packs. In addition to adding weapons and equipment for different mission profiles, these packs also reconfigure the Impulse's Variable Phase Shift armor. There also three additional Silhouettes, the δ Chaos Silhouette, ε Abyss Silhouette, and ζ Gaia Silhouette, which are designed for use with their own alternate Leg Flyer units. Unlike the basic Silhouettes, these packs allow Impulse to transform into MA-like mode. However, the developers figure out that these Silhouettes aren't very effective for their purpose. Thus the plans was scraped and redesign into separate MS, the ZGMF-X24S Chaos, the ZGMF-X31S Abyss, and the ZGMF-X88S Gaia. Chaos Impulse is green and white, Abyss Impulse is solid blue and Gaia Impulse is black and white. After the Impulse is completed, additional Silhouettes are designed - the θ Destiny Silhouette, which is a ZAFT counterpart to the EA P202QX IWSP. An additional Silhouette, with the designation of η, predates the Destiny Silhouette but has not yet been revealed. Its quite possible that this Silhouette copies the ZGMF-X23S Saviour. Since the other packs copy the other three units (Abyss, Chaos, and Gaia), it is possible that this pack could allow the Impulse to use a Savior-like MA form.

Second Gundam: GAT-X10A Freedom Gundam

Spoiler

■M100 "Balaena" Plasma beam cannons
Another weapon specifically designed for use in Full Burst mode for destroying enemies, are the two plasma beam cannons. These cannons are the most powerful weapons of the suit and mounted over the shoulders when in use.
■MA-M20 "Lupus" Beam Rifle
The Freedom uses a single MA-M20 "Lupus" high-energy beam rifle, which is the same rifle used by its companion unit, the ZGMF-X09A Justice.
■MA-M01 "Lacerta" Beam Sabers
The only close combat weapons of the Freedom are two MA-M01 "Lacerta" beam sabers, which are usually mounted on the hips of the suit. As with the beam rifle, the same type of beam sabers are used by the Justice. Kira is has combined both beam sabers into a double-bladed beam saber twice (similar to the ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam). This unique style of wielding the beam sabers allows it to engage multiple enemies in melee combat with ease.
■MMI-GAU2 "Picus" 76mm CIWS
As with most other mobile suits, the Freedom features two head-mounted MMI-GAU2 "Picus" 76mm CIWS guns, which are used to shoot down incoming missiles and enemy units at close range.
■MMI-M15 "Xiphas" rail cannons
Specifically for use in Full Burst mode, or going through anti-beam defenses, the Freedom features two hip-mounted rail cannons.
System Features
■High Mobility Aerial Tactics (HiMAT) System
The Freedom features a unique active aeroelastical 10-wing HiMAT mode for superior speed and agility.
■Meteor Support System
Like the Justice, the Freedom can dock with the powerful METEOR support system weapon platform, granting it powerful thrusters and an even more powerful armament of battleship-caliber beam cannons, large beam swords, and dozens of heavy missile launchers.
■Multi-Lock Weapons System ("Full Burst Mode")
In this mode the Freedom has access to its plamsa beam cannons and railguns and is meant for en masse firing solution. However despite its power, Full Burst Mode can only fire in a forward direction.
■Neutron Jammer Canceller
As with the other four Gundam units produced by ZAFT at its time, the Freedom is equipped with a Neutron Jammer Canceller, which counters the effects of the ubiquitous Neutron Jammers and allows these suits to be powered by nuclear reactors. This gives them almost limitless combat endurance, even with Phase Shift armor activated.
■Operating System
The Freedom uses the Generation Unsubdued Nuclear Drive Assault Module complex operating system.
■Phase Shift Armor
Like its sister unit the Justice, the Freedom is equipped with Phase Shift armor. Thanks to its N-Jammer Canceller and nuclear reactor the PS armor is capable of being active for a lot longer than on non-nuclear powered suits such as the Strike.

Third Gundam: GAT-X42S Destiny Gundam

Spoiler

-------------


----------
■2 x MMI-GAU26 17.5mm CIWS, fire-linked, mounted in head
■MA-BAR73/S high-energy beam rifle
■M2000GX High-Energy Long-Range Beam Cannon
Stored on the left wing, the M2000GX high-energy long-range beam cannon serves as the Destiny's primary long-range weapon. When in use, the cannon unfolds and swivels underneath the Destiny's shoulder while a trigger and guard extend to allow the Destiny to take manual aim. This beam cannon is the mobile suit's most powerful long-range weapon, possessing firepower that is capable of destroying most battleships with a single shot.
■MMI-714 "Arondight" Anti-Ship Sword
Stored on a rack behind the right wing, the foldable MMI-714 "Arondight" anti-ship sword is the Destiny's main close-combat weapon. It is an improved version of the MMI-710 "Excalibur" anti-ship sword. It is normally used against large targets such as the Earth Alliance's GFAS-X1 Destroy Gundam. However, as Paul Lyon's preferred weapon in close-quarters combat and arguably the strongest melee weapon in the Destiny's arsenal, it sees extensive use against all types of enemies.
■MMI-X340 "Palma Fiocina" Palm Beam Cannons
A unique feature of the Destiny is its two MMI-X340 "Palma Fiocina" palm beam cannons. These close-range weapons release powerful energy discharges that are capable of destroying the "Slayer Whip" heat rods of a ZGMF-X2000 GOUF Ignited and even the armored head of the massive GFAS-X1 Destroy. Since the "Palma Fiocina" have only been used in close combat throughout the series and in other related appearances, it is unknown whether they are capable of firing over long ranges. During the final battle of Gundam Seed Destiny, Shinn attempted to use the "Palma Fiocina" to parry the beam sabers of Athrun Zala's ZGMF-X19A Infinite Justice Gundam. However, due to a possible overload or simply because of the superior power in the beam sabers' concentrated beams, the Destiny's hands exploded.
■MX2351 "Solidus Fulgor" Beam Shield Generator
Like its brother unit, the ZGMF-X666 Legend, the Destiny is also equipped with two wrist-mounted MX2351 "Solidus Fulgor" beam shield generators. These generators generate powerful beam shields that allow the Destiny to defend itself from even the combined power of a Destroy's three "Super Scylla" multi-phase beam cannons.
■RQM60F "Flash-Edge 2" Beam Boomerang
The Destiny is equipped with two RQM60F "Flash-Edge 2" beam boomerangs. They are upgraded forms of the Sword Impulse's RQM60 "Flash-Edge" beam boomerangs. One is stored on each shoulder, similar to the ZGMF-X09A Justice. Unlike previous models, the Destiny's beam boomerangs also double as beam sabers, though they rarely see use in this form. Shinn uses these versatile weapons in a wide variety of ways, such as using them to distract opponents while he closes in for a close-range attack, or to destroy several enemy units in its trajectory.
System Features
■Hyper-Deuterion Nuclear Reactor
The Destiny is powered by a hyper-deuterion nuclear reactor, giving it a self-replenishing power reserve. Despite this amazing power source, the Destiny is quick to run out of available power in a fight, with one of its engagements with the Strike Freedom ending in a retreat due to energy depletion. However this would end up being retconned in the Special Edition where the Destiny returned to the Minverva for repairs.
■Neutron Jammer Canceller
Like the ∞ Justice,Strike Freedom and Legend, the with a Neutron Jammer Canceller to allow it's nuclear reactor to work in areas affected by Neutron Jammers.
■Operating System
The ZGMF-X42S Destiny uses the Gunnery United Nuclear-Dueterion Advanced Maneuver operating system, (MOBILE SUIT NEO OPERATION SYSTEM Ver.1.62 Rev.29).
■Wings of Light
The "Wings of Light" is the Destiny's most unique design feature. Utilizing a variant of the Voiture Lumiere propulsion system in conjunction with Mirage Colloid particles, the Destiny is capable of achieving very high speeds while leaving behind a trail of visible after-images to confuse its enemies. One of Shinn's signature attacks with the Destiny is utilizing the Wings of Light's massive acceleration in conjunction with the "Arondight" anti-ship sword. With the Wings of Light active, Shinn rushes into close combat range with unprecedented speed and impales his target with the Arondight. Most instances of Shinn performing this maneuver have been done against larger, less maneuverable opponents such as the Earth Alliance's Zamza-Zahs, Gelles-Ghes, and Destroys, which lends some doubt as to how effective this attack would actually be against units of similar mobility such as the Strike Freedom and Infinite Justice. As shown during the final battle of Gundam Seed Destiny and in an FMV cutscene in Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2, the speed and after-images granted by the Wings of Light allow the Destiny to effectively dodge the multi-directional attacks of the DRAGOON System. The Wings of Light were actually reverse engineered from the DSSD's Stargazer's Voiture Lumiere propulsion system, unlike the Strike Freedom, who derived the system directly from the Stargazer.

Genetic Type: Newtype/Coordinator

Biography:

• Born in the colonies he was the son of a famous creator of mobile suits. He is also the long time friend of George Kyleson, the son of a natural born pilot and the nephew of a wealthy businessperson who was funding his father's project. They got to long great together and were best of friends to the point of being practically brothers. They grew up together and even fought the same battles against bullies at their school. While growing up he was constantly wanting to improve the ways he could become stronger pledged he would be the very best in the world at whatever he chooses to become and George, not one to be left behind, pledged the same. When his father finally finished building the gundam he was picked to be its test pilot which he did his absolute best to do so. When he got inside the machine he felt different and he knew this was something he was destined to do. He got average results initially from the tests and the Earth Alliance asked if his father would sell the machine to them. He agreed to the condition that his boy be the pilot.
  
• Paul was shocked at his father's sudden statement and thought he would have never sold his machine. He was also upset that he was being traded away like a tool. However his father explained to Paul that the universe needed a new leader someone who could make things better and that was him. That day he said goodbye to George and promised he would meet him again some day. George was Initially really emotional about it but promised they would meet again. After that he joined the Alliance as the pilot of GAT-X565 Impulse Gundam with some reluctance. It was hard initially being he was only 14 years old and the military was made up of adults. However Paul's will never allowed him to give up and he strove to become better when he was tested. After completing a number of simulations and practice courses; He fought terrorists and ZAFT forces during the Four Month War and became more and more skilled as he fought eventually becoming one of the best. His activities remained secret for most of his but he kept in contact with is family. He served with a man named Jason Hiyan who would become his life long partner. Jason was brutal in his own way and disliked fighting but knew it was needed to keep a better world in check. However he was also kind and respectful to others. Paul shared most of Jason's ideals even though he had no qualms fighting and killing and Jason thought of it as a last resort. They changed one another and became partners with Jason's unit becoming Paul's main unit and was officially put into the 84th Armored Infantry Division and eventually was made into the 81st Mobile Infantry.
  
• Eventually he becomes a Lieutenant in the military by the time he was eighteen and was legally listed as a pilot. He was also told he was initiated into a Coordinator program, which is the reason he never got to meet his mother having died in childbirth he was initially upset but got over it quickly. He told his father that he lived for himself not his mother or anyone else and that this was his life. However despite this his father convinced him to let him pick out his future wife. While he disliked the thought of it he conceded that it would likely even him out when he was upset.
  
• During his time in the military he got engaged to a girl named Lacus Clyne at the behest of his father (at the age of 16) who had met hers the day before he was sent to the military. He initially did not care for the pairing as he thought Lacus to innocent for his line of work plus she was really young. However he has learned to like the girl despite her passive nature and they both get along well. He occasionally went to her concerts and talked with her about her ideals. She wanted to get him away from his line of work but eventually gave up after he explained why he did what he did and decided to support him despite his more aggressive nature and his life when it comes to war. However things turned when suddenly ZAFT attacked and the Galaxy turned to war again. He fought on behest of the colonies that still supported Earth and the war would later be known as the Fractured Earth War. About a year or so after this war he ended up fighting his old Friend George, who confirmed that this was his way of repaying his promise to him when they were children and explained to him how he joined ZAFT and how he disliked the EA's policies, he challenged Paul, in his Gundam Aegis and it ended in a draw during a battle in space. The EA has since made peace with ZAFT but it is a weak peace destined to bring out the worst in people. He still fights skirmishes and is known as the Earth Alliance's "Black Star" in reference to his suit and clothes he wears.

[Agent B52]

*holds up hand*

Question, I am starting out with a Zaku F2, but what would be the best procession from there? Should I stick to purely One-Year War designs and go to a Rick Dom mid-game and a Gelgoog end game or am I better off picking for example a (thematically apropriate) Crossbones Gundam for mid game and a Victory-era design for end game?

[VanceXentan]

I would reccomend going Victory Gundam units because to be honest Gegloog is a horrible end game. Heavy Arms Kai one shots Leos which have stronger armor than a Zaku for example and Geloog is not much better.

Character's Name: Matthias Cromwell

Character's Age: 34

Character's Gundam/Mobile Suit:
1st mobile suit (Start of rp) being used: MS-06F Zaku II
2nd mobile suit (mid rp) being used: MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom
3rd mobile suit (near end of rp) being used: ZGMF-X2000 GOUF Ignited

List of Gundam/mobile suit's weapons:

MS-06-F Zaku II

• 120mm Machine Gun
The 120mm machine gun is a standard weapon for Zaku type mobile suits. It is a shell firing gun that does not require energy to be used, however its effectiveness against heavy armor is very little. The ZMP-50D used a 100-round drum magazine.

• 280MM Zaku Bazooka
The 280mm Zaku Bazooka was another standard weapon that could be equipped to a Zaku type mobile suit. The bazooka fired explosive rounds that were quite effective against the armor of Earth Federation battleships. However the bazooka could only be loaded with a single round at a time, thus it had to be used carefully. The bazooka was front loaded which is difficult to do while a mobile suit is changing vectors. The bazooka could be stored on the rear waist armor while spare ammunition could be stored on the side hip armor.

• Heat hawk Type5
An axe-shaped close combat weapon, it uses a super-heated blade to cut through the armor of enemy MS or vehicles. The thermal energy is generated by the power output of the Zaku II's thermonuclear reactor and relayed through the MS' hands.
MIP-B6 cracker grenade
Identical to those used by infantry, the cracker grenade is an explosive weapons designed to be thrown or launched by the MS and detonate after a set amount of time. The "cracker" breaks into several smaller munitions over a wide area.

• 3-tube missile pod

MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom

• Heat Wire
The original thick tentacle heat rod, somewhat limited in length, was replaced with a magnetic grappler mounted on a thin cable, allowing the right forearm to store a much greater length of heat wire and giving the weapon a much greater reach.

• 3-Barrel 35mm Machine Gun
The original 5-fingered machine gun left hand was replaced by a normal manipulator hand, and instead a 3-barrel 35mm machine gun could be mounted on the left forearm. This new machine gun had greater effect on more heavily armored machines, and was magazine fed.

• Gatling Shield
The Gouf Custom was equipped with a new type of shield that contains a powerful 75mm Gatling gun that was drum-and-belt fed. The Gouf Custom could easily discard the shield if its weight proved to be a hindrance when it needed speed and maneuverability.

• Heat Sword Type D III
The Gouf Custom is equipped with the latest in the line of Gouf heat swords, a battery powered weapon that uses a superheated blade to increase its slicing abilities. It is stored in the Gatling Shield.

ZGMF-X2000 GOUF Ignited

• MA-M757 "Slayer Whip" Heat Rod
The most versatile weapon of the GOUF Ignited are its two MA-M757 "Slayer Whip" heat rods, with one rod mounted inside each forearm. These rods can be used to whip a target and at the same time deliver an electric charge, causing great pain to the pilot. When the charge is delivered while the heat rod is wrapped around an object, the shock causes the object to explode. The rod, as its name implies, can also heat up to such a degree that it can slice lightly armoured suits in half. While has appearance similar to MS-07B Gouf's heat rod, it's heat-based like one use by OZ-13MS Gundam Epyon instead of electric-based.

• M181SE "Draupnir" 4-barrel Beam Gun
For ranged combat, each forearm of the GOUF mounts a single M181SE "Draupnir" 4-barrel beam gun, which fires many small beam impulses on its target.

• MMI-558 "Tempest" Beam Sword
The ZAKU's shield contains a beam tomahawk, the GOUF's shield contains an MMI-558 "Tempest" beam sword. When used, the sword pops out of the shield, enlarges and two energy beams are created on each bladed side, granting the sword greater cutting capabilities than the old physical swords used on the ZGMF-1017 GINN.

• Shield
For defense, the suit mounts a single physical shield on its left arm and stores the MMI-558 "Tempest" Beam Sword, the shield is similar to the one used on the ZAKU series.

• M68 "Cattus" 500mm Recoilless Rifle

Note to self, swipe a beam rifle or other long range weapon for the Ignited.

Appearance:



Genetic Type: Low end newtype, some heightened spacial awareness, basic empathy and uncannily accurate 'hunches'.

Biography: Born in the mid 40's on Side 5 to a Zeonic employee, Matthias moved to Side 3 at the age of 5. Despite the distances involved, he remained pen pals with several people there. Even through the hardships of growing up seperately, he remained loyal to them. It was one of his father's most important lessons to him, to remain loyal and to never lie to ones' friends. The other most important lesson was to always keep asking questions, to develop critical thinking. Growing up alongside him was his dog, a golden retriever named Jaco.

His belief in the inherent good in people took a mayor hit when in high school Jaco was run over by an anonymous car driver that did not even bother with the brake. Devastated he became distant and were it not for the support of Vladimir Dragovich, his best friend, he would have probably drifted off to what the duo later jokingly referred to as 'the emo abyss'.

Unsure of what his true calling was, Matthias eventually joined Zeon's space forces. He thought he had a chance to actually do a lot of good there, to inspire others to live their lives well. Doing his best to be an exemplary human, he quickly rose through the ranks, becoming a Lieutenant and receiving his own command at the relatively old age of 33.

One of the first few officers to test out the new mobile suit weapons, Matthias showed surprising aptitude with the machine. While on the surface accepting his commanding officers compliments with a smile, deep down Matthias wondered why Zeon needed so many of the suits. His father's old lesson on critical thinking set him off to begin a quiet investigation to the motivations of Zeon's leadership.

That was when the war finally started. Commanding his own Zanzibar, Matthias was assigned 'hunter-killer' duty, functioning in a role similar to WWII U-boats: To try and sink as many federation space-bound supply transports as possible. Using the relative free reign given to him, Matthias began to check out sites of rumoured Zeon atrocities. The evidence he found shocked him. How could Zeon claim moral superiority after the numerous atrocities they had committed?

After Operation British, he began to gather like-minded men around him, using his forces to try and minimise the civilian casualties where possible. The Battle of Loum was the final straw for Matthias and his group. The massacre destroyed what remained of the faith in their government, as well as costing Matthias an eye and his parents. Afterwards, under the guise of a 'resupply run' Matthias took his forces back to side 3, where they secured their dependants (families and hangers on) in a daring raid before setting off for Side 6.

Although the overall collateral damage of this operation was negligible, just the blow to Zeon's pride was enough to warrant a hefty sum on all their heads. The Riah Republic therefore wanted nothing to do with the renegade Zeon forces, leaving them to fend for themselves. Forced to make a living as pirates and mercenaries, Matthias has led the group ever since.

Now a mysterious energy signature has caught the attention of the Sic Semper Tyrannosaurus, and Matthias has a hunch that this is somehow a chance of a lifetime. For good or bad remains to be seen.

Addtional:

The Sic Semper Tyrannosaurus (lit. Thus Always Unto Tyrant Lizards) is a battered Zanzibar class cruiser. The home of Matthias' Marauders, it usually hangs back and avoids confrontation where possible. Commanded by captain Jean Leclerc and staffed by the Marauder's families, despite it's origins as a warship it has a homely feel to it once inside.

The other members of the Marauders are Matthias' personal squad of Zaku pilots, Vladimir Dragovich and Oriko Okawara. Arguably more important than the mobile suits is the marine complement commanded by Phillip Stoker, the men who actually board enemy vessels to capture their cargo.

First off put your suits like mine in spoilers.
=====
two there is no natural progression you have Zaku then cross bone then Victory gundam. All of which have their own natural lines of progression pick one line and stick with it. We're getting natural upgrades as we go along and you would need to gundamjack the other two from whoever is in crossbone and Uso in victory to get those which is highly unlikely.

I would just go the Uso Route - http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/LM312V04_Victory_Gundam - LM314V21 Victory 2 Gundam - http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/LM314V2..._Buster_Gundam if you still want to go with that era that is.
=====
Three - The bio is short and has very little insight into your guy's life before , during, or after his service in Zeon which went extinct and was replaced by the Zanscare (Jupiter?) Empire after Char's little drop. A far more reasonable approach would be to go back and have him be formerly apart of Neo-Zeon. Put him inside a captured Gundam MK two and progressing to pre-Zeta and than Kamile's Zeta.

I was under the impression that we were going to run into newer suits as we explore the planet, this is basically my way of going 'dibs!'. Given my character is a pirate, I was indeed planning on looting those shiny suits from right out under their owner's asses. Except maybe Tobia's suit, because he's a pirate too, and therefore bro. With him it's more along the lines of borrowing it. Without asking. And indefinite term of return.

Anyway, can I instead simply loot whatever shiny suits we happen to run into?

I would just go the Uso Route - http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/LM312V04_Victory_Gundam - LM314V21 Victory 2 Gundam - http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/LM314V2..._Buster_Gundam

If we run into it, rest assured I will try and steal it.

The people gathering around the planet, they are supposed to have fallen into/out of a big hole in space and time right? He is swiped from before the original Mobile Suit Gundam series start, just after the Battle of Loum. I will try and add a little more detail to the guy's backstory.

[VanceXentan]

You could but for the vast majority you won't even know how the f' to operate the things.
Gundam Thrones - Work with some sort of special devices along with all Gundam OO members
Gundams with Psyco Frames are something he's likely never even heard of before.
Crossbone will not even be apart of this because I don't know enough about it to properly insert their characters in. Seabrook and Judau and the gang are still in though.
Gundam SEED units transform and use technology never thought about before in UC.
And so that leaves you with basic UC units and Wing suits which have a tendency to self destruct before being captured.

So that's why you should pick a line and stick with it because the scientists we get won't be so discrimantive. Pick a gouf route or something.

Thats a bad idea..you are setting yourself up and getting turned into a criminal by pretty much all of Jason Hiyan's crew. because you're serving with literal special forces operatives who's whole time together have been involving the extermination of terrorists and rebels.

Yes thats the jist of the opening.

I'll put it this way besides all the stuff I mentioned up there. Remember Captain Ginyu from DBZ? He could switch bodies and gain even stronger power levels. However he can't use their techniques that they already learned because he did not learn how to use them the target did. He could get as strong as he wanted to but if the body was dependent on power ups he was screwed. That's basically my counter-arguement right there.

Appearance:


Genetic Type: Super Soldier

Biography: A "Failed" Outcome to the HRL's Super Soldier Program Roy barely escaped the Facility before his Termination. After his escape Roy had very few choices in what to do in life. He was designed to fight and to be a soldier so he took up arms as a mercenary even at a young age. No one expected the boy to be able to handle the life of a mercenary at such a young age, but Roy pressed on using the skills ant talents that were programmed into him to decimate his enemies on the battlefield. But the life of a mercenary was hard on Roy, He didn't agree with some of the decisions that the troop's leader made, and He grew to dislike fighting and war in general. After deciding to quit the Mercenary group and stealing a mobile suit for himself Roy started Life anew. He tried to separate himself from war and fighting, but wherever he went conflict seemed to fallow. And only after Roy took up arms fighting both the Union and the HRL to try and save the small town he had been hiding in was he approached by a representative of the group called Celestial Being saying he had been chosen as a Gundam Miester and if he used his skills he could help bring an end to all war and conflict. The decision only took a moment and Roy agreed to join the group. But Roy soon figured out that his joining was something of a last ditch effort for the group, Tow of the groups Misters had recently been killed and the others were MIA. Among the dead were Lockon Stratos, and Tieria Erde who had both died during the "UN Forces Counteroffensive" Roy was to take the place of Tieria Erde as the group's Support/Heavy Weapons unit. Being the only "recruit" able to manipulate Quantum Brain waves he was the only one suited to pilot the Virtue and its complex systems. His first mission was to go and try to find the remaining Miesters who were missing. Just after setting off on the mission with his Black Haro unit he caught a strange distress beacon and went to check it out maybe, just maybe it was one of his missing comrades.

Other: Being a "Failed" Super Soldier project, Roy suffers from Short term Memory loss, and If in combat with another user of Quantum Brain waves his performance/Sanity becomes compromised

[VanceXentan]

For you Art you need to add a picture of your gundams and you need to put them in spoilers. Also being a failed super soldier wouldn't it be more prudent to pick the Kyrios gundam line? Also he needs more info in his bio.

Define Gouf route. I need something to work with here. As far as I understand the basic UC designs are not powerful enough to compete late-game, and unfortunately they are the ones I am most familiar with. I have only seen SEED beside the original Gundam, and have yet to watch Destiny.

Thats a bad idea..you are setting yourself up and getting turned into a criminal by pretty much all of Jason Hiyan's crew. because you're serving with literal special forces operatives who's whole time together have been involving the extermination of terrorists and rebels. You fall under both categories which means he will barely be trusted if at all by them. So Paul likely won't be backing him up when he fights another enemy mobile suit unless circumstances have it.

It's less 'terrorist' and more 'leader of an independent colony with very, very limited resources trying to survive'. Plus, if we don't immediately shoot one another I feel it would give way for some epic roleplaying. To what point does one have to follow their government? At what point does one decide enough is enough? When does 'we were ordered' become nothing but a hollow excuse?

I don't know the character that well, but would he really blow up a small village because it's inhabitants disagree with their government using colony drops?

Yes thats the jist of the opening.

Perfect character is boring anyway, it's a disadvantage I think I can live with.

On top of that I can always jack instruction manuals and guesstimate the machine's workings via maintenance panels.
