Thought I'd hide this here as I work on it hoping to perhaps find some imput

This is a world where Superman is a never was, Spiderman is a gadgeteer with a cool toy collection; more like Batman with a touch of Tony Stark. The strongest Gamma (They call us Gamma) I ever heard of could lift like 20 tons if he was standing on a reinforced surface, something to do with load per square. Try lifting 5 tons on a beach and you’ll sink to your knees or hips before you get it over head. Fliers we have our problems as well, you need to have the power to go fast, make atmosphere, eyesight, and well it's fun till you fly close to a chopper.

..Did I forget to mention that we have powers but not all that powerful, but thats mechanics



“How did we the people of Earthe get our powers?”……. It all started at a lovely little place both our timelines share

POWERS
I know thats what your thinking, So here goes

First let me point out in a world where Gamma take jobs with the local police killing the bad guys not a way to be in their good graces.

So I mentioned in the hook that lifting was an issue and it is, Can’t lift ten tons while standing on a common house floor unless you wanted to check out the basement; it’s all about spreading out the support so unless you want to wear clown shoes or something like them expect to sink into earth, sand and the like if you go over 2 tons overhead. Most streets will either deform (Tar based) or crack (Concrete based) if you try 5 tons overhead; some muscle jock tried to get laws passed to make stronger streets so he could juggle cars but it didn’t pass.

Hey how about running really fast, let me count the ways. Urban environments and their tight corners suck at over 200 mph and it isn’t all about turning but surprise; the streets and sidewalks ain't empty. Ever have to explain to a parent why little Timmy’s bruise looks like your knee put him in a coma? I think I heard of some guy who was running about 500+ mph out at the salt flats; he fell twice and it was only his reflexes that kept him from getting a broken arm or leg as he tumbled maybe 600 yards before he got his feet back under him.

Oh and if you’re gonna run or fly faster than 50 mph you need a face and mouth guard at least unless you like to eat bugs and your eyes bulletproof.

How do I get around these things?

Support powers, these are things like say a streamlining force field for a runner or flyer...oh and both might want to get the support Maneuverability both allowing top speeds but limiting powers outside of flight.

But those details are boring “Go for Indestructible, or maybe Telekinesis” just remember to not go overboard with power

Gamma were in the beginning known only to a select few world wide by 1948-49 then he showed up “Celestial” he called himself and he could fly or make other things fly; a talent he demonstrated on Live TV when a freak storm blew the Dumbo Macy’s parade balloon into the air with 5 boys who’d received the honor of joining the 30 man crew and had refused to let go too late as it sailed up striking the 14th floor of a skyrise throwing the boys into the 10th knocking all but one lose to plummet to their deaths.

Long story short “Celestial” caught the falling boys and floated them to the pavement safe and sound then grabbed 3 towlines and pulled the runaway back down to its handlers and saved the day while blowing the secret.

In two months you could count known Gamma on both hands but 2 years later Gamma numbered in the 100’s worldwide.

Here it is 2018 and Gamma are born to HS to HS (Homo Sapiens) in every 1 in 250,000 births - Gamma to HS 1 in 232,000 - Gamma to Gamma 1 in 217,000 meaning they think there are maybe 3 or 4 million Gamma worldwide.

Hi there, I’m Rumi to those that don’t know me and I was reviewing some of my table top game systems when I got to reading an old White Wolf game system called Aberrant to think of a way to adapt some of its power structures to forum RP.

Then I saw a simple plan, I use the Attributes only to make an RP. Brilliant at least I hope so.

---

---

In the RP for those who’ve never read a White Wolf CS there are 9 Attributes in three associated columns and assigned three blocks of points to spend in each column 7/5/3 which are usually spent on normal attributes like those everyman has; I’m changing that.

For the Curious a Link to Aberrant Core Book

In this you start with all 3s at everyman level meaning you can

Physical
= Deadlift 100kg
= Natural Athletic potential (You get picked first in pickup games and make the high school first string)
= You seldom get sick, heal quickly and can finish a marathon with full effort

Mental
= You are able to see the deer 200 yards away 20/20 vision and all that
= IQ 130
= You keep your cool in a Firefight

Social
= You turn heads
= You'd make a good lawyer or top salesman
= You’re the life of the party

---

---

Mega-Strength
Level 1 = Stupendous, Olympic weightlifters stare in awe as you deadlift 1 ton
Level 2 = Amazing, When your car breaks down you can carry it home on a shoulder (Deadlift 10 tons)
Level 3 = Incredible, you can toss cars (Deadlift 25 tons)

Mega-strength enhancements
Crush = this is the ability to focus your strength in a Bearhug, Punch, or Kick to max it’s damage
Shockwave = Stomping, punching or striking the ground causes a shockwave to strike every target in Mega-Str X 10 meters stunning them and knocking them off their feet if they have no Mega Counter such as Sta vs stun and Dex to remain on their feet.
Leap = Allows you to leap 100 meters for each dot of mega strength and survive most falls no matter the height.
Thunderclap = Less destructive and non lethal shockwave.

Mega-Dexterity
Level 1 = Stupendous, You can juggle knives in Zero-G with your feet and stand a chance at dodging bullets
Level 2 = Amazing, Bruce Lee and Jet Lee blink trying to see your punches
Level 3 = Incredible, When you run by someone they see a blur

Mega-dexterity enhancements
Accuracy = You are a legend in the art of ranged attacks
Enhanced movement = You can cover 100 meters for each level each movement phase (meaning 100 meters every 3 seconds for level 1 and 200 meters for level 2 and so on)
Fast Tasks = Halves time doing things like mechanics, knit a sweater, build, clean and assemble for each level
Flexibility = You are an escape artist, contortionist, spooky sexy creature.
Physical Prodigy = Sports, Dancing, and related skills are where you out shine anyone else except others with this enhancement at higher levels
Catfooted = You are the Ninja of ninja when it come to stealth, you walk on eggs without leaving a trace of making a sound (Levels in Dex help you oppose a Gamma with Mega-Perception)
Rapid Strike = This is your extra attacks 1+ 1 for level 1 (2 attacks) 1+ 2 for level 2 (3 attacks) 2+ 3 for level 3 (5 attacks)

I can keep going but the mechanica can wait till I see some interest

It would mean a rework of the previous information but I think it could play well

As the runner of the game you can work it how you want. Still looks good.

Wow am i unbanned for this?

Interested. Favour "low power" games.

Guessing im unbanned

Oh I suppose lol

We out here

I'm working hard at the ranch my boss had a heart attack and its caused my work load to double because she's unable to work and her Wife is so nervous she too is unable.

No worries Rumi. Real life is priority.

Okay I will have something up soon on this thread and I'd love some input on it from those interested

To give you an idea of how this game works it is based on the Aberrant RP by White Wolf

The information below this line will be part of the RP’s OOC

The Game
There are no "winners" or "losers" in Aberrant.
The idea is not to "beat the other Players, as much as having everyone's characters cooperation which may prove essential to your survival. Nor is it the goal to "beat" the Storyteller (Your's Truly) nor is it my goal as the Storyteller to defeat the Players; we are all here to write the best Story possible.

I know it’s difficult at times to accept my rulings, the limitations I place but in the end I am your Benevolent Dictator and my terrible duty to make the decisions on what is and isn’t acceptable.

The World
This world is based loosely on the Aberrant world (Very Loosely) because I’d like to keep things as simple as possible. I want to limit the upper levels of power in the beginning at least as far as the PC’s are concerned so that people are at least on the same power point levels.

The biggest point I want to make is there are no Supers below the age of 17 and if you want me to bore you I can write some pseudo science sounding reason why that is so but in reality it is because 10 year olds hanging out with adults is creepy.

As I pointed out in the first post the eruption of Gammas began shortly after the first Atomic bomb tests. In the beginning it was a trickle of Gamma but as the world powers took a bit of time to catch on to the fact that bomb testing was part of the cause of people being granted the power of Demi Gods so by 1962 the number of new Gamma was 1,500 worldwide and by 1975 4,000+ which caused the powers that be a great deal of concern and forced the Zurich Accords which argued on many points but the one that concerned Gamma the most was “Do Gamma Have the same rights as everyone else?”

Good... lets start

Still down for this.

@DeadDrop@Dnafein@Goldmarble@Bishop

Okay everyone I'll try to get the OOC up by Sat. evening

Excellent!

mmmmmmm...
