Alright, well let me know what rules you two will be fighting under. I will place an offical card once you get everything set and I see characters in a fight thread.

Hmm, unless I've missed something this character probably isn't what I would consider 'high powered' as in the upper level of the sort of middling range most characters tend to sit in. For example, the Clockwork Man is high powered when his body was converted to Elmorium, which gave him the durability of diamond and the strength of forty men, as well as Technomancy and a wide range of other dangerous weapons such as a plasma grenade, which can literally melt a character such as yours instantly if he remained in range. Just thought I'd let you know that if people were to look at your character with a cursory glance they may be off-put by the higher tier, or match your character with a high tier he'd be hard pressed to defeat.

Then again, you've been incredibly vague in describing pretty much all his powers and physical capabilities, so going by the high tier description I can only assume he's lifting one hundred tonnes and impenetrable to bullets and runs at 1000mph and all that other good stuff, in which case fair enough.


Well, I originally had him sitting at around mid-power, but with some of his abilities, I wasn't sure how he'd be rated. I'd honestly put him at a very high medium or a low high powered character. He definitely is not bullet proof, even with his magic like armor, though he can take substantial damage from bullets before it does serious damage. He's definitely not THAT strong. However, his speed is debatable. He's meant to be a highly elusive character, and may be able to dodge a few bullets here and there.

I consider low powered to be comparable to Spider-Man.
I consider med powered to be comparable to Colossus.
I consider high powered to be comparable to Sentry.

This is not, however, a unanimous metric. Sometimes people consider my characters stronger, some consider them weaker. There is no unified opinion on the subject.

[EDIT:] And I'll be honest, the fact that people expect everyone to agree on it kind of pisses me off.

[Double EDIT:] This saltiness isn't directed towards the two of you, to be clear. It's incredibly hard to manage a metric among a group of people who, on average, argue more than any other group of roleplayers. Bringing it up tends to result in a long discussion about how it should work, and it ends up as a circlejerk of the same cyclical topics.


Someone has never done much Nation RP's before. Especially sci-fi ones.

I'm not a fan of nation RPs. I think I've been in a grand total of 3.

An arena based nation rp could work. Only focus on combat while building up small squads to fight for you. It's a fantasy world where the populations are small so the fights are manageable in arena format. Basically we'd be the generals and not the absolute dictators like how most nations work.

Actually, medieval warfare was when you'd have big formations with dudes on horses riding to take down other dudes with horses, and you'd have whole formations of archers. In modern warfare, you'd get two teams of 5, a tactical leader, and either an RTO or medic.

The amusing part of this conversation is I have been drafted to a group making a nation RP with three separate genres. Lol

Nah, usually it was a bunch of dudes sitting outside a castle waiting for the other guys to starve to death.

Perfect, like I said no rush.

Also to anyone who cares in other related news. I've thought up two more factions that should work will, along side the already established Angar-Rylla.

They don't have any ties to Roleplayer names of course. I tried getting a tie into with M.E.L.O.N. But NEVER GOT beyond 'Multiverse Elite Legionary'- bluh-bluh-bluh.

It looks like the two people that I was supposed to go up against have yet to show.
