Hey everyone. Im new to this forum but not Rping, and this particular RP immediately caught my eye. I would like to join if there is still a spot open. The character i came up with is KYL-9XX, a human cyborg. Let me know what you think.

Im also caught up on what has happened so far.

@Zorogami Denied due to song name. XD

(April Fools)

In all honesty, I see no problems with this character. Though wait for the GM to look at it before posting in the CS thread.

By the way, note that Fenn is prioritizing Gomory's trail over Gilgamesh's. We just took the liberty of having Fenn and Lily come across the remains of the fight. If the Gilgamesh people end up going a completely different way than Gomory, Fenn and Lily will just ignore the former and go for the latter.

I have to wonder what paths will cross before we all reach the second Seal and who will get caught up in an epic battle royale for it.

@Zobozun Just looked at your character and Im not too sure on what to think. Give me a min to think about it and wait for the other Co-GM and GMs to look at it.

Edit: So I looked over him carefully.... and he's just OP as hell.. literally. In addition, not enough info is given about his personality and bio, making him rather generic if you think about it, as well as insulting Gilgamesh Corps as well.

His powers are also quite OP, even rivaling that of an Angelic BOSS I created. The techniques alone are already OP, even the minor-looking ones... and thats just him at LEVEL 1 and NOT at his stand-up PRIME. Not to mention he's literally a nuclear furnace... and an Earthquake machine.

So overall, one cannot accept him like this. Perso and Bio have to be improved and he has to be SEVERELY nerfed.

Yeah we're keeping power gated by a level system on the style. He's got too many moves that would count as a level 3. Lampad Kiss would actually be useless against pretty much every demon in the RP, because they wouldn't experience Heat Syncope. I would actually suggest removing it, and stick to more direct forms of combat.

A lot of your moves count as level 3. For a quick pointer... Level 1, are basic moves. They're basic applications of your weapons. Level 2 is expanded, they're more advanced applications of your weapons. And then Level 3 is basically full potential of both the user and weapon.

By the way if this is your idea of level 1, you'll need to change up the power scale a little.

@Zorogami ah, another hero of humanity! After looking over your character, I see no overt flaws. At first I thought there might be some sort of conflict in the backstory and personality since Gilgamesh augmentations do not tamper with personality, but as I read on it became quite clear that your character received his upgrades from an outside source, one undoubtedly more dubious than Gilgamesh. Very interesting; this could be an subplot to pursue at a later date. My only worry is whether or not your character would be really fun to play for your sake. Personality-devoid characters are known to become boring surprisingly quickly. An angle you might consider was that he had the emotion-dampening chip in for some time, but recently it's started to go off, giving him a few quirks that make give him a trace of insanity. Personally I'd think that would be more fun, but it's 100% your call, of course.

I concur with the prevailing opinions concerning @Zobozun's character. I need not say anything about him being too strong, which has been covered; instead, as the resident manager of the humanity faction, I have some comments about the choice of character. Let me start with a question: how many armies enlist punks off the street and neither bother to train them nor mentally condition them for warfare before spending untold amounts of money developing cybernetic enhancements? The answer is none, because Gilgamesh would not do that. As the face of human achievement and authority against heaven and hell, Gilgamesh holds an extremely high standard. I'm fine with your character getting into Gilgamesh, but being slapped in there is not the way to do it. In addition, I don't see why he needs enhancements if his main focus is fire. Not to mention, the aesthetic of Gilgamesh's augmentations are less power-suit, more hulking mechanics. Even Otsune, who is the apex of cybernetic advancement, has bulky augmentations.

All the same, I hope this critique doesn't put you off! We'd be delighted to have you.

So what I'm getting here is the Weyland-Yutani-style megacorp with their own private militia are actually meant to be the good guys in this scenario rather than a third antagonist faction? I assumed the guys there would be big fights for the demon hunters, like a more active Ithavoll Group stand-in. That's why I made him like he's a big flashy boss battle, and gave him the personality of a saturday morning cartoon villain.

If Gilgamesh are supposed to be the good guys then the whole thing falls apart. So since my guy doesn't work, and I don't really feel like coming up with a whole new guy, I guess I'll just take it down and leave you all to do as you will.

Well, they're not really good guys. Its an army fighting, professionally, for what its leader believes in. This just so happens to be asserting humanity's place against angels and demons. When it comes to methods, they are by no means knights in shining armor. Despite having a good goal, they're a faction all their own. Anyway, we definitely aren't aiming for player characters to be bosses. Any bosses are GM territory.

If you don't feel like putting forward additional effort, far be it from me to stop you. See you around.

Their higher cooperation only recently began, there's still tensions between the lot of them and occasional conflict.

Still if you're not interested you're free to do as you wish.

@Zorogami Your character abilities and backstory look fine to me. Might speak with Lugubrious to see where your character might fit best, as he's the one in charge of Gilgamesh.

@Lugubrious Thanks for the feedback, I left some things unclear or unkown on purpose to be able to come up with an interesting subplot or character development later on as you mentioned as well. As for playing a character without emotions, my idea was that pretty soon in the story KYL-9XX would get messed up pretty badly or get a part of his head blown off, only to realize shortly after that his emotions-inhibiting chip has been (partly?) destroyed...and well, let's say that what becomes of him personality-wise is going to depend on a lot of factors, and things may not be as clear cut as they seem...i dont want to give away too much yet if that's ok? Also, @Sho Minazuki suggested you would be the one best suited to tell me where my character can come in story-wise.

Thanks guys, really looking forward to this!

I hope everyone's almost at the ruins.

I've got quite a bit of time on my hands in the upcoming free week off, so I want to move this RP from prologue to chapter 1 pretty soon.

I never mentioned any ruins. It's not absolutely necessary that every single character winds up at the important location. If you feel like your character can do something interesting elsewhere, that's perfectly fine.

I'm rather busy, comparatively, but I'll do what I can to move us along.

Hm, I see. Once things go south (which they will soon) we can have your character and another Gilgamesh operative appear as reinforcements.
