Got this idea in my mind for a 'Mecha Mercenaries' type RP where we would play the crew of a ship, and most importantly, the pilots of the mechs it carries. I've got a 'Space Pirate Harlock' vibe in my head where this crew looks out for themselves, is always looking to profit, however, they are all about honor, and will only take on new crew members who fit their ideals. Anyone who is purely out for power, glory, and riches, would be left stranded in the middle of nowhere with a day of water and nothing more.

I'm thinking a Gundam/Armored Core style for the mechs.

Now I have the idea for a Fantasy aspect to this, where the mechs this crew uses are extremely advanced, far beyond anything the world has available. The thing is, only very special individuals are capable of piloting them, those who can link with the machines mind, body, and soul. These individuals also have incredible powers outside of their mechs, capable of great feats even on foot, including supernatural abilities. Now this doesn't mean they're going around throwing fireballs or raising the dead. But think more like 'Jedi-Lite'. What your character is capable of within those limits, is up to you.

Mechs would grow in power over time. So say to start off, they aren't capable of anything super special like flying in atmosphere. But over time, what the mechs are capable of would grow exponentially.

Where the story goes is up to the players. Will the mercs end up siding with one of the factions, aiding them in conquering the other nations? Will they set out to form a nation all their own? Or will they forsake all nations and seek to forge a new world that matches their ideals?

Just a base idea for now, will flesh it out more if there's enough interest to get it started.

I'd be interested in this. A fantasy mecha adventure is straight up my alley.

This sounds really interesting, I'm a big Gundam fan and having a team of Newtype-esque characters would be fun to write.

Funny you say that because a lot of my ideas are inspired/based on Gundam 00 heh, from the mechs being advanced beyond anything the rest of the world has, to Orbital Elevators being the main source of power for the different factions.

I will say just to be clear because I haven't said this yet I don't think, this isn't a Gundam RP, just inspired by it. It will have its own terms and whatnot, but I'm working on an OOC post at the moment that should explain everything.
