[OOC] Winds of Change: A Re:Creators-Inspired Multiverse RP

[Raineh Daze]

For a crossover, the better type of antagonist is one that's going to cause problems for the PC's without being untouchable and impossible to interact with--because then they're just a series of random events--and whose problems aren't literally just "them". So they should be setting things in motion.

[ClocktowerEchos]

So I may or may not be mildly interested in this and after looking over the last page or two of OOC, I see that there is an issue with people wanting there to be an antagonist PC vs not wanting one for various reasons.

I'd like to offer myself to play the role of such a character, namely Settra the Imperishable from Warhammer Fantasy as from what I understood of the OP, it did say any franchise. He's strong enough to be a threat and often does go out and do things personally but he also has more or less an infinite number of mooks he could summon for people to cut through and have their little mary sue badass scenes.

[Raineh Daze]

Er, why Settra. Like... Settra's not even remotely a good choice because the armies aren't derived from his abilities so much as he'd have to be brought here along with half of Khemri. I'm not the GM but it doesn't seem like whatever's bringing people here is going to be so broad as to transport entire armies inexplicably?

And... that sort of scale is probably too large and he'd just get carpet bombed by the nearest military.

I guess he came to mind because of the Total Warhammer preorder?

@Raineh Daze

Not really, I's just a huge fan of Warhammer and 40k. Plus I am somewhat interested in this and I can't recall any particular character in anime I'd really want to do. I just wanted to play someone outside of a pure goody two shoes plus it never hurts to have a focused antagonists in a story.

I can list off characters from those universe I could play as, all I need to know is what limitations and restrictions there are. As of now I've learned that they have to be single entities who don't gather too much attention alone.

[Raineh Daze]

I mean, as shown by the JSDF noticing when we wrecked a park, anybody who shows up with an army is likely to get the expected response.

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

@ClocktowerEchos: I mean, we're not limited to anime. Things just... Turned out that way?
I mean, look at Fake's chars. Not anime.
There's also nothing wrong with more antagonistic characters, but...
I also do not recommend bringing along an entire army. Because that leads to bad things.

On a less antagonistic note, uh... Yeah. It's not necessarily that they don't garner too much attention alone (again, more a byproduct of the characters chosen), but moreso that their power levels are brought in line with everything else in the RP thus far. Antiheroes and characters who tend more towards the side of villainy/neutrality I don't mind, as I said, but it's more a matter of if the rest of the cast would drop literally everything they're doing to pursue them. Like bringing in someone who eats people or is a mass murderer who indiscriminately lops off heads. That sorta thing.

Or if they're unlucky enough to provoke the wrong people at the wrong time iono. Still, though, it's heavily dependent on what you do and how that's executed, so if you wanna go down that route, I won't stop ya. Just keep that in mind.

[ClocktowerEchos]

@PKMNB0Y After doing some searching, I am now wondering if I could use Pontiff Sulyvahn from Dark Souls 3.

[Raineh Daze]

But... we have no idea what his actual personality is like? We know what he's done but he never says anything and then... you kill him.

Though jedi pope with a stand is hilarious. xD

[TheFake]

What you need is a character with a personality that will interact with other characters in an interesting way. I can't see the Pontiff interacting with anyone aside from trying to kill them.

[ClocktowerEchos]

Sulyvahn is more of a manipulative bastard who'd do well in political manuvering and social engineering. He'd be the one to try to become pope by making a deal with devil or Cthulu. His personality is in line of Dark Soul's phillosphy of show don't tell and his character is pieced together through his actions and interaction with others. Although if that doesn't sit well with the RP, I suppose I'll keep loooking. Might look at an Inquisitor/Commissar. Or maybe Lelouch. Or maybe someone else entirely. I'm sure I'll find someone soon.

[Raineh Daze]

I mean, fundamentally it might help to pick somebody that has ever said a word so that we know what they're like aside from "unceasingly power hungry". xD

[Dezuel]

@Raineh Daze@PKMNB0Y@VitaVitaAR@KoL[Rin]

Couldn't add mentions in my post due to it lagging like hell when I edited it. Too much text or something.

[KoL]

Fine.

I'll get a post this weekend, by the way.

[KoL]

Ok, posted.

Presuming that everything is ok, I'm ok with moving along with everyone whenever we are ready.

I still haven't found the time/inspiration to post as Tohka, but you can consider that she's with the rest of the group (maybe in a separate room), for simplicity's sake.

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

Alright.

Well, I'm kinda going through the motions for the Eva group at this point. The rest of the Tenshi group can put whatever the heck in their rooms, I guess. You can even choose to double up, I guess (though obviously... Gender.)

This'll be a quick cooling-off point and a bit of relaxation before bigger stuff starts rolling into Tokyo for these two sets considering the fighting/chaos done on the last few pages, anyhow.

More in stock for Hibiki and Ben later. For now, feel free to... Do as you are.

If you need an idea of what the complex looks like, think of how apartments are set up in Hataraku Maou-sama. Or Hidamari Sketch. Probably more like Hidamari Sketch, all things considered.

(You should pop back onto Disc once saber wars rolls around tho. Because rolls.)

[TheUnknowable]

I like the idea, but you look to be full on characters and there's a lot of reading to do to catch up on the story.

Of course, since my character wouldn't know anything, I could just read from here forward.

[Dezuel]

I would love seeing some more characters joining in. As for catching up on the story, I guess I could give you a short version.

- There is characters in two locations on the World. Tokyo and New York.
- 4 in New York and 13 in Tokyo
- There has been Three fights at the moment. Two in Tokyo and one in New York. The involved in Tokyo has been brought/invited to the local authorities.
- Right now the characters are:

- 1 On the run in New York
- 1 Unknown?
- 1 With the Tokyo police?
- 2 Eating in Tokyo
- 2 Helping civilians in New York
- 4 Are located in or outside a building they've been given access to stay at by the military.
- 5 In a location close to the diet building where the military brief them.

[TheUnknowable]

@DezuelI was actually thinking of playing as Inuyasha even before I saw that you were playing as Menomeru. Maybe I'll say Hi after realizing that for some reason Kagome's house isn't where it's supposed to be (I'm just in the future, right?)

My other two characters would be Mr. Spock (because why not?) and maybe one of the Xmen (Nightcrawler?) or someone from "Firefly".

[Dezuel]

Oh god! Inuyasha is the least thing Menomaru wants to see right now! So you should totally bring him xD

[TheUnknowable]

Inuyasha

Name: Inuyasha

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Personality: Proud. He doesn't like being inferior or being made fun of. He often lashes out in anger. The one thing that can get through to him is his friends, especially Kagome, but she doesn't appear to be in this world. He's also a bit of a loner, preferring to be by himself much of the time. This is likely the result of him being an outcast from human society for most of his life.

Brief History: He was born to a Lord of the Yokai (rough translation "demon") and a human princess. He didn't fit in with either groups, with the demons looking down on him and the humans hating or fearing him. One day, as an adult, he met a priestess named Kikyo. They fell in love and she offered to use a magic jewel under her protection to make him fully human. Due to interference by another half-demon name Naraku she believed that he stole it and sealed him to a tree for the next fifty years.
He then met her reincarnation from 500 years in the future, named Kagome, and convinced her to pull out the arrow. The jewel ended up shattered and they spent the next few years fighting Naraku and hunting down the shards.
After they finished their mission she moved back to his time and they got married. He was visiting the old well which led to her future world, and the nest thing he knew he woke up in the streets of her city, Tokyo.

Universe of Origin: Inuyasha

Equipment: Robe of the Fire Rat: A Kimono that is made from the woven hair of Fire Rats. It is stronger than plate armor, resistant to corrosion and highly resistant to fire and heat. It also slowly repairs itself if it takes damage. Holy magic may make it lose it's power.
Tessaiga: A sword which appears to be a rusted katana with a tattered handle. It can transform into a giant fang which can be used as a sword. Once transformed it can use the powers of powerful yokai it has killed, including breaking barriers (turns red), wind scar (energy blast, can be combined with Red form to break barriers), Backlash wave (converts enemy attacks into vortexs and sends them back), Adamant Barrage (diamond coated blade, fires shards of diamond), and Meidō Zangetsuha (create portals between this world and the underworld. Can be used to travel between this world and the afterlife. Can also be used to through crescent shaped portals that send anything it touches through, effectively cutting it by moving part of it.) The sword has two defensive abilities as well. Only those with human blood may touch it, or it will protect itself by shocking that person. (may ignore weak demons/non-humans). It is also tied to Inuyasha's life force. As long as he lives it cannot be broken, due to a protective barrier it creates around itself. This means that it will weaken him if it is used to block a powerful attack.

Abilities: Superhuman endurance: Could get hit by a car going 60 MPH and survive, even without his armor.
Superhuman strength: Can lift about a ton.
Superhuman stamina: Can run indefinitely, and fight all-out for thirty minutes.
Superhuman agility and reflexes: Routinely dodges or blocks arrows.
Extended longevity: He's over 200 years old, and looks like a 16 year old.
Accelerated healing factor: Can heal from a near-mortal wound in a week.
Regenerative capabilities: Regrows missing body parts. Fangs and claws take a few days, fingers and toes a week, and limbs a month.
Superhuman olfaction: Equal to a dog's.
Superhuman hearing: Equal to a dog's
Enhanced eyesight: Several times better than a humans.
"Claws of Steel": Channels his demonic Ki into his claws to make them cut further and better.
"Claws of Blood": By drenching his claws in his own blood, he can channel his Ki into that blood and throw it as crescent shaped blades.

Other: On the night of the New Moon he turns human. If he's separated from his sword for too long he can lose control and become a full demon temporarily.

Tyr Anasazi

Name: Tyr Anasazi

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Personality: He is one of the proudest people you'll ever meet. He is considered extremely selfish by most, as he is unlikely to help anyone unless he believes it to be in his own best interest, even if that "best interest" comes in the form of money. His people, Nietzcheans, follow the works of the philosopher Frederich Nietzche. As such, he believes that the ultimate goals in life should be to become all you can be and to reproduce. Everything he does goes to one of those goals, either by improving himself or proving himself to possible mates. He isn't interested in human women, though, as he is genetically incompatible with them. He is brutally honest with those he talks to.

Brief History: He is out of Victoria (mother) by Barbarosa (Father). Born on the asteroid homeworld of Kodiak Pride, in orbit of a star named Enga's Redoubt. When he was young, though, his Pride was betrayed by their allies and attacked. He was sold off as a slave, along with many of the people in his Pride, to alien slavers but, after digging his way out of a cave in which trapped him and many others he killed his slavers and left the world, becoming a high end bounty hunter and mercenary.
He eventually got a job with a Nightsider who paid him to "secure" a possibly derelict warship. When the rat betrayed him, though, he killed the rodent and later decided to join the crew of the ship in their foolish mission to restore the once great Systems Commonwealth.
He went to sleep last night and woke up on this technologically backwards world.

Universe of Origin: Andromeda

Equipment: Gauss machine gun: Able to punch through medium grade armor with ease.
Gauss Pistol: Designed for use against unarmored and lightly armored opponents.
Titanium Chainmail shirt: light armor which can stop most modern projectiles, only leaving bruises
Leather clothing
Commonwealth ECM Generator: An arm band that disrupts the targeting systems of electronic smart weapons fired at him, usually causing them to miss. Dumbweapons, like bullets and melee weapons, aren't affected.
Comms unit: A wrist band that can operate on a verity of frequencies and ties into an earpiece he wears.

Abilities: Expert in most forms of combat
Skilled mechanic (though this was in the future with far better technology)
Expert Chef
Skilled biochemist (especially with poisons)
Arm blades: four sharp bones that come out of his forearms. Used for melee combat.
Superior immune system: As strong as any mere human's immune system, it protects him from minor poisons, viruses, bacteria, and parasites.
Superior Strength: Strong enough to function normally in double Earth's gravity, he is capable of benching over 450 kilograms in Earth normal gravity.
Genetically engineered: His hand eye coordination, visual acuity, reflexes, and stamina are on par with the best humans, and he has an IQ of 160.

Other:

Iron man

Name: Tony Stark (Iron Man)

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Tony Stark

Iron Man

Personality: A self absorbed egotist. He's a genius and he knows it, and wants everyone else to know it too. Most of what he does is either to test himself, improve himself, or prove his superiority. A self described "genius, playboy, Philanthropist", he helps people for both the fame and glory, but also because he doesn't like bullies hurting other people just to get their way.

Brief History: Born to a Howard and Maria Stark on May 29, 1970, he grew up wealthy, attending the best schools. He distinguished himself several times in various contests as a teenager, and even hacked the Pentagon on a dare.
When he was 21, after graduating MIT, his parent were killed in a car crash and he took over his father's company. With his leadership, they became one of the largest weapons manufacturers in the world.
In his early thirties, though, he was kidnapped by terrorists, who ordered him to build a weapon for them. He built an early version of the reactor to power an electromagnet that keeps shrapnel out of his heart, and instead of the missiles they wanted, build a powered exoskeleton to fight them.
After escaping, he returned to the US where he improved on the technology, streamlining it and replacing the reactor with one that was much less crude. His "Iron Man" suit became a media sensation when, during a weapons test, he took out some terrorists that were attacking a small village. While the government asked him to keep his identity a secret, his ego wouldn't let him, and he told the world that he was Iron Man.
He joined a team called "the Avengers" and protected Earth from an alien invasion as well as a runaway AI, making multiple upgrades to the armor and reactor in that time. He even discovered how to make a non-toxic crystalline synthetic material that works much better than the original Palladium fuel the reactor originally used.
One day he was in his lab, experimenting with inter-dimensional travel, when there was a flash and he was standing on the streets in New York City. Luckily, he had his armor on at the time.

Universe of Origin: Marvel

Equipment: Iron Man Mark 33 Armor, Cell Phone (no service, but with a wifi connection he can still use it to contact his armor), Suit recall bracelet (push the button and it flies to you), Arc reactor implant (in his chest. Max output of 10 megawatts for about two hours.), His wallet ($320 dollars cash, and the credit/debit cards don't work. But he does have a card for a free sub at subway, so that's good.)

Abilities: Genius IQ: about 190
Doctorates from MIT in electrical and mechanical engineering
Basic hand to hand combat
Mark 33 armor: Titanium alloy plate, capable of withstanding the main gun from a light tank.
Chest beam: Can put entire output of the reactor into a blast of plasma.
Hand blasters: Can shoot blasts or beams of plasma capable of melting through light tank armor.
Flight: The suit enables him to fly by using the thrusters in his hands, feet, and on his back. The hand blasters are just an alternate use for the hand thrusters.
Super strength: Allows him to lift and throw several tons.
Laser emitter: A laser in his forearm that can produce a beam capable of cutting through heavy armor. Can use most of the reactor's output, and needs it to cut through heavy armor.
Jarvis: A stripped down version of his home's AI, it can fly the suit, perform diagnostics, design machines based on Tony's directions, and interface with other computers, even controlling their attached devices. He can also be copied into other computers to give him a new body to work with.

Other: He doesn't like the fact that he is poor again, but he's been in a similar situation before.

Marked out:

Spock

Name: Spock

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Personality: Logical. Humor and other emotions are to be avoided.

Brief History: The son of a human woman and the Vulcan Ambassador, he never really fit in with Vulcans, who believed him to be too emotional, or humans, who saw him as too logical. He decided to adopt the Vulcan way of full logic in order to fit in.
As an adult he joined Star Fleet and eventually became the Science officer and second in command of the starship Enterprise. He was examining an alien device on a newly discovered planet when reality shifted around him and he found himself on Earth.

Universe of Origin: Star Trek

Equipment: Tricorder, Communicator, Phaser pistol

Abilities: Skilled hand to hand fighter
Expert scientist and engineer
Touch Telepath: Without touching a person he can only slightly alter their perceptions and read surface thoughts, and then only with considerably effort. With proper contact, he can go so far as to perform a Mind Meld, combining their thoughts so completely that the two minds are indistinguishable from each other. This sometimes works on advanced machine intelligences as well.

Other: His blood is green, and his internal organs are like a Vulcans. Also, every seven years he undergoes Pon-far, an overwhelming drive to find a mate.

Nightcrawler

Name: Kurt Wagner (Nightcrawler)

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Personality: Helpful but shy. He's willing to help if asked, but tries to keep to himself.

Brief History: He was adopted by a performer in the Munich circus as a baby, not knowing who his parents were. He grew up with them, performing for people's amusement. While people generally didn't like mutants, they were ok with them performing in Freak Shows.
When he was 16, however, he was kidnapped and put in a cage fight. He was rescued by Mystique and taken to America, where he enrolled in Xavier's School for the Gifted, a school for mutant children. He then helped a team of mutants from the school fight Apocalypse, a super powerful mutant with dreams of world conquest.
After that they formed a group called "the X Men" and he learned to properly fight, to protect his fellow mutants from those that wished to harm them.
One day he decided to head into New York City for a midnight snack. He teleported out, and appeared in a different New York than the one he knew.

Universe of Origin: Xmen

Equipment: Trenchcoat, cell phone (which says that he doesn't have service), watch, this wallet.

Abilities: Enhanced Agility
Martial Arts
Prehensile tail
Teleportation: He can disappear one place and reappear another. Limited to about 10 miles, and he must either be able to see his destination or be familiar with the location to properly target it. He can take people and equipment with him, but the heavier it is the harder it is to move it.

Other:

Three outcasts from Human society. I'm sure they'll fit in on an all-human world.
