Popping in to say hullo

@vietmykeHullo to you to! :3

Oooh pod people? Sounds interesting for a character concept. Hmmmm

@veenknight343
Mmmmhm, allows for some characters to be from Zeta or 00 for example without having to be a canon character.

ooh can we be newtypes?? My current thought for a character is a member of a independent privateer salvage crew working closely with the one of the colonies

Still accepting? Currently have an abundance of time to use and an affection for the real robot genre that I'd like to try my hand at.

@vietmyke
You can be a newtype, however the fuel situation in space leads to few ships traveling at all around the earth sphere besides military(Expeditionary Forces) means that being a independent party wouldn't last for long since the colonies are the only place to get fuel. The tension between the colonies could mean a crew who come from one colony could be contracted secretly to bring certain loot to the colony. Side 3 will be the best choice for this but a detailed list of locations will be released soon.
Edit: I should also clarify that only in specific instances will powerful newtypes exist at the start, most will be the usual beginning newtypes like the beginning of a gundam series.
@EvictedElement
The RP has yet to start yet and am still building infrastructure but feel free to read on the IC post about the world. I should have locations, rules and terminology up by tonight. If you have any questions let me know~

OKAY, belated update thanks to the craziness of the weekend, but I've put up more information and updated the rules above. I'm just waiting right now for the character sheet to be finished, getting much appreciated help on that, and will begin accepting applications. If anyone wants to try rolling for their characters let me know and I can provide the spin! Otherwise take a gander at the suits available to choose from. Unless a roll is extremely bad (all aquatic suits for example) it will not be rerolled, and the models listed are the options, no variants.

I'd like to spin this here wheel of mecha-fortune and see what I get.

@EvictedElement
UGY-R45 Garm Rodi
ZGMF-1017 GINN Fuego
AMX-008M Ga-Zowmn Marine (https://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/aoz-reboot/amx-008m.htm)
Interesting roll as I had to look up that ga-zowmn type as well, left a link to it. I would advise between the garm rodi or fuego if you want an artillery player.

Admittedly, that marine type looks awesome, and the fact it's amphibious makes it great option. But as I can't find any stats on it to work with, so I'm pretty sure that Garm Rodi would be my best choice. Sign me up!

@EvictedElementSweet, fuego is good as well but given it's a missile based mobile... suit? Understandable XD Now we just wait for the skele.

So are we allowed to ask you to roll for a Mobile Suit, and if we don't like what we get from that, then pick one of the 'standard picks' so to speak?

I'm also curious about the general theme of the Beloth Empire, since more often than not in fiction anything with the word 'Empire' in it tends to take the role as either the villains, or the ones willing to go to extremes to do what needs to be done. So I'm just curious if this is the sort of Empire where you have the rank and file charging into the enemy line screaming "FOR THE EMPEROR" or if it's a pretty standard 'country' so to speak.

Because right now I'm imagining a Militaristic Dictatorship.

@Bell
For the rolls yes, the grunt units are a nice set of general purpose suits for consideration(edit: if you do not like your roll result). Unless the roll is extremely bad(rare but happened once) for the start I won't reroll it.

It's an empire in the sense of a collective of states that have banded under a single ruler, this being of the Beloth line I will detail in the emperor's profile. The majority of multiple settlement nations are kingdoms while Beloth was been able to expand to the size of an empire. Empires have to constantly expand and acquire more people and resources to support itself as well so for the theming it was fitting. They are not bad or villainous in the connotation empires usually get, and not overly religious but there is a heavy sense of unity to them compared to the colonies where they are comfortable with same colony people but dislike other colonists.

Overall theme for the Empire was from Rome actually, which constantly expanded its territory while integrating cultures into itself.

Also props for a PS2 nod but enjoy the Wh40k memes more.

I didn't so much mean a reroll, more like, if I don't like the roll, can I then pick one of the 'grunt units' listed in place of what you roll?

Either way I'd be interested in this, and at least seeing what I get for rolls.

@Bell
The suits there are if you dislike your rolls yes, otherwise I'll role for you;

RGM-79V GM Night Seeker
RX-79[G] WR Full Armor Slave Wraith
EMS-VSX2 Abijo

@Phoenix347Hi, after watching the Iron Orphan, I think I got a gist of what mecha is. So, would you mind rolling me a mecha lottery ticket, please?

@Shovel

Sure enough! I can say IBO's usage of beam weapons won't be the same and they'll be more usable. If you have any questions let me know, and here's your roll!

ovv-f Gafran
NRMA-006 Gadeel
RGM-79 GM Diving Type

@phoenix

Roll for me man, show me the bankruptcy of bad suits! XD
