Can't wait for custom tabs to be implemented. This RP would benefit from it so much... I don't have to hunt for my own mission posts.

just gonna mention that the new tabs are probably permanent, while our missions and group formations change constantly. It probably won't be as useful as you think.

[Valeric]

Nah. All we need are Mission Tabs 1-5, and only one active mission in each tab. Done!

[Alphakoka]

Looks alright to me.

I was writing now and I felt I had to comment on something. At some point in the past, someone pointed out that the character "Simon Getskilled" had a... suspicious name. I hadn't realised that, as I always read it "Get Skilled" and only realised it could be "Gets Killed" when someone else (sorry I forgot who) pointed it out. Maybe a second reading of sorts? Haha!! Sorry, sorry...

[chukklehed]

that would be me, and I really don't remember why I noticed it, since I rarely even pay attention to that side of the RP.

[chukklehed]

I probably only saw it that way because I was watching a youtube video, and one of the characters was "Guy Diesatstart". It had a scene that went:

"What's your name?"
"Guy. Guy Diesatstart. And his name is Dude. Dude Alsodies."
"Do you ever get the feeling your names bring with them a sense of impending doom?"
*Shrugs*

[Valeric]

Going to post for Clayman's sometime today.

EDIT: .....or not. Tomorrow, I promise!

[Fallenreaper]

I'll try to get a reply up for Free Billy tomorrow or sooner.

[Active] Titanic Defense: Maria replaces her armor with Titanus' own, turning her into an impregnable fortress of steel. The armor protects her from any physical damage, but greatly reduces her mobility. Duration 4, CD 20.

How much is her mobility reduced exactly?

Titanic Shield: Maria summons Titanus' shield, which has the same properties as his armor. Any physical blow that contacts the shield is turned away, and the impact behind the shield becomes negligable.

Defensive utility is great, but it's very easy to make a defensive character OP if you unlock decent offenses later on (the plan was to have a 4th ability slot introduced in a pre-guildfall mission.) I think it's best to offer you a choice regarding this ability; you can lower it's effectiveness a bit, or leave it like this but have me be a lot more picky about Maria's future abilities.

Titanic Crystal: Maria summons a crystal shield that absorbs any harmful magic directed at it. Each spell it blocks lights up one of the 12 crystal sections that make up the shield, and when 3 or more are filled Maria can release a shock wave from the shield, consuming the magic to force anyone in front of the shield backwards, as if she had Shoved them. (Every 3 crystals lit simulates 1 level of Shove)
[Active] Titanic Refraction: Instead of a shockwave, Maria can release the magic stored in the shield in it's original form, casting the spell meant for her at whomever she chooses. The spell is unchanged (If it was set to track her, it will still track her. If it couldn't effect the caster, it still won't.), but she releases it in the direction the shield is facing. Duration 1, CD 5+ CD of the spells released, if any. Only one spell in every set of three crystals can be cast.

Looks good.

And the rest of her character seems in order also. Just clarify/adjust a bit and I'll add her to the list (which I totally need to update.)

Yeah, that´ll be great indeed. It'd also save my having a dozen of links in the OP.

I actually stole it from this.

They've lived so far and their parents seem to have made it to the point of reproduction. It's not so ominous when you put it into perspective ;)

Let's say to 1 third normal. The ability is meant for her to act as a wall, standing between her allies and whatever is attacking them. Originally i just had it make her immobile, but that version was going to be a normal ability.

I'm leaving it as is. I don,'t plan for Maria to have any offensive abilities that aren't primarily defensive. Her rediculous strength serves as her attack. Shield bash anyone?

I'll post for this later on today.
Sorry for the inactivity.

[Valeric]

T_T I'm so proud of you, Adeline. I'm not sure if it's because I've been playing more outgoing/pro-active characters in other RPs, but I've finally made Adeline step up for once. Is it too soon for her to change out of her cowardly and negative personality? ...maybe not, since I've been playing her for so long.

Cool, works for me.

Heya, welcome to roleplayerguild. Your character looks in order, if a bit basic, for the most part. One thing of note is that our active abilities work with a posts, rather than in-game time, and other is that I'd like to see how far your shock spell can jump with it's active. If you'd fix and clarify chain lightning, that'd be great.

Also a bit of a nitpick, but if you could use links or hiders for your images? That'd make the entire thing easier to read over..

No worries. I think I recall you mentioning you were sick. Feeling better?

Hah, now I'm all curious to see what she did.

"Why the hell did Liaison send us in here when they were going to dispatch a Queen?"

You guys are the bait so they don't have to make a fuss entering the ruins?

Rather they deciphered something shortly after the initial deployment.

[Valeric]

She actually didn't do much... or rather, she did something instead of just going with the group and helping only when absolutely necessary. It's a small step but the first step.

[tirgesfu]

Hey all,

I'm back. But I admit a bit lost and unmotivated. Unless I am really holding some story back, I might take a break as Nuka for a bit longer. Just know if someone really wants to move that lost plot forward just let me know and I'll add what I got. Looks like most of the players are in other stories. Just being honest.
