On a serious note. I'm thinking dimensional travel should really be limited to the Nexus gates with the rare special exceptions. (like clockmans transporter thing) After all the whole point of the meta-story is gaining control of the nexus. Be odd if people can just go where they want. (like those with ships for example)

As it is one gate in a world sends someone only to one other world and so on. So it would probably look something like..

Sortiarius->Necropoli

Necropoli->Mystique

Mystique-> Perdo Wastes

Perdo Wastes-> Angar-Rylla Homeworld/Darashal

Angar-Rylla Homeworld/Darashal -> Alternate Earth

Alternate Earth->The Demon Webs

The Demon Webs-> Sortiarius

The Nexus of Worlds-> Everywhere
The Halls of Dreams->Apparently everywhere as well

I assume that we just break the chain and insert a new world as yet another segment of it when we need one?

BTW, leaving tomorrow, probably wont be online until monday.

Probably, though it seems at present we have a decent number of universes, not many people posting in them.

Well, we can just add it to the beginning or end of the chain.

Now all we would have to do is decide where the portals would be. Or decide if a universe has more then one door to the same place. If the gates are in one spot though it would make it a nice strategic position. So I'd be in favor of the former. (though Nexus is probably unique in that it has a gate for each realm)

Maybe have a faction that controls their nexus gate allows all their ships to use it, for people who want to bring they large ass ships or large ass selves to another realm.

Mystique's gate would be prefect if it's on the Mystan moon. Gives a reason to go there if nothing else.

GM? Skalla's MIA, and Rilla's a lazy bastard who doesn't want this shit without being asked. We're in an anarchy and is run by its users.


We've been through this before, honey bun, it's not laziness to not take over an RP without permission. That's like saying every member of an RP is lazy because the GM left, and no one stepped up.
On another note, you lot seem to be able to barely function without someone popping your hands, because you reached out and tried to touch the toys when mommy said no.

What you folks needs is one person in charge, not a group of 'reviewers', because it'll honestly come down to R.A accepts it, but R.B thinks it's bullshit. if you've already shown disdain for a person, no matter how many times you swear up and down that you can be fair, and impartial, you shouldn't review their sheet. At all. I wouldn't trust you to do it without there being some type of bias that might not be afforded to someone you like.

Plus, let's be honest, when you have an attack that can affect someone with a word, that they don't even have to hear, and can't defend against(without prior knowledge of it, it's pretty damn metagamey to have a defense for it), talking about Goku and the like is pretty much a WTF moment. Go ahead, argue with it, these past few pages have been amusing.

High Tier characters seem to cause the most problems for you folks, so until Skallagrim gets back, those should be put on ice, and low-to-mid characters used.

TL:DR

Drop the high power characters
Get a single GM
Don't like someone? Ignore them. It'll end bad.

I agree with that, I was going to disallow solely high tier characters from getting involved in the Meta-story anyway.

Most of the arguments in this OOC that I've witnessed thus far have been over questionable, implausible or downright power-gamey attacks and maneuvers enacted by several participants in this thread; the issue involving Leeroy's monster bear and Khan's whatever-character-he-was-using-at-the-time comes to mind, as well as Beta's falling out with Green (again, this scuffle came to life over conflicting combat actions Green himself made).

It has less to do with the characters themselves and has more to do with people getting away with blatantly obvious powerplaying (some players in this Multiverse have gotten away with this behavior not once, but fucking twice) and a lot of you (me included) have rather piss-poor attitudes, biased and uneducated opinions, and overall downright terrihorrible communication skills when something even remotely 'OPed' comes to pass. The double-standards are also hilarious.

All in all, great community we have going here.

Grab a notepad; note the sarcasm.

Simply passing the blame on a specific character tier seems like a lazy cop-out that doesn't address the core issue.

Eh. No community is perfect. That kind of thing takes time and effort.

I must admit that I like Rilla's proposal for dropping the high-tier though. Anyone who feels doing so would be super stupid and unnecessary?

As for getting a single GM. Sure, that would make things easier, but who, except Rilla and Skalla could take such a position? I mean, it has to be someone everyone agrees is up for the task.

I don't understand what dropping the high tier would do. The only people high tiers fight are other high tiers, and the same problems would arise between intermediate and low tier characters anyway. The problems are caused by a difference in what people find is meta gamey or OP, and that wouldn't be fixed by forcing people to just straight up get rid of some of their characters.

Dark Void: - Going to need a second opinion on this, as it looks like it is essentially an unavoidable attack that places someone in an illusion for x amount of time. Mind control, for example, is usually not allowed in these kind of things, and this illusion at the very least, takes a step into the same realm of attack. It's perfectly fine to create illusions (as in, constructs that aren't really there), but Dark void seems more like an hypnosis, and that's a no no.


VERY iffy. Personally, I dislike illusions when used in forum play-by-post combat, as you can pull an Itachi and Tsukuyomi people. However, I am willing to show a little faith in people and let them have a go at it. I will let this ability pass if it is not uses as a form of hypnosis/mind control.

Green said
Power of decay: Destroying metal is cool and all, but add the following; "This only works on tiers lower than himself, unless he preps it." - As to avoid other fighters who don't run around with holy weapons (few do) having their superpowered magic weapons destroyed easily.


How does this effect actual magic weapons, not just holy ones? Example being my character's bow. Orichalcum is a magical golden metal of incredible toughness and resiliance. How would this ability work on it? Add in detail if you have not already, and it's golden.

Green said
Black plague: - Be more specific. How fast does it kill someone? Use Alex as an example; how fast would it take him down? If you're using it as an actual black plague, keep in mind that it took quite a while before people fell over dead by it. Do people need to inhale the black plague he spews forth for it to affect them? How fast, and long, does it travel?


Not much more I can say here. Green hit it on the head.

Green said
Regeneration of the damned: No head regeneration. If you get beheaded, you die.


You stated that "Well, what if he pulls his head back on?"

As a humanoid being... unless he has nerve bundles in his body that can independently work without input from the brain, how would your body be able to respond and put the head back on? I'm all for neat powers, but that makes no sense. Gonna side with Green on this. No beheading regen.

Green said
Metamorphous; This seems like a super saiyan progression to me, which I'm pretty sure is a no go. I might be wrong on this.


Again, hit the nail on the head.

Green said
Final form: If he dies, he dies. Death is the state of which we measure a defeat, so if he comes back every time he dies, more powerful than ever, then the fighter who killed him (who at that point is, without doubt, pretty fucking worn out), is almost guaranteed to perish. I'm going to deny this ability, unless any of the other character reviewers have any objections.


I second the denial of this. It is akin to a Saiyan Zenkai, in which they get a power boost every time they die or come close to death.

Green said
Pure dark: The ability to not be fooled by any illusion is not the same as seeing every illusion for an illusion. An illusion is a construct that isn't really there, a false image, a projection. To varying degrees. Does he automatically go "Aha, I am not fooled by this!", or does he actually see through them? If the latter, change your wording, and be aware that even if he can see through them, they're still there, unless stated otherwise in the illusionist's CS. As far as I can tell, we don't have any of those, so this shouldn't be an issue. I'm just making sure we're on the same page now, in case one of those pops in later.


Seems kinda like a Sharingan to me... just saying.

Green said
Power from the sinners: No. Doubling in power when he meets an evil presence of sufficient power? That's every evil character in this place. Your character is good aligned, so that's most of the dudes he'll be fighting. Outright denying this ability. It's a permanent doubling of his powers nine times out of ten.


I second this no.

Green said
Scythe; Summoning the Cerberus requires preps. The amount of such will be decided when you've written down a separate sheet for Cerberus in your CS. As a summon, it needs to be more specific.


Indeed.Powerful summons are practically characters in and of themselves, thus needing preps to summon and at least a brief CS just for them.

Green said
Monster strength: Specify. We don't know how fast you think demons run, or how strong Hercules is, or how durable he is. Give us some numbers.That's all, for now.


All boils down to numbers, homie. Everyone hates stats, but everyone needs them.
And that is my late review.

One kiloton makes a whole lot more energy than that!

Just do E=MC^2


By the math presented by both parties on the force of an antimatter annihilation on the level of a single kilogram, that fuel reserve would detonate with at least 34,400,000mt of force, and UP TO 68,800,000mt of force. And while that would permanently scar a planet, possibly even slow down or speed up its rotation... it is generally FAR too weak to destroy a planet or even shift its orbit out of place.
Not dropping my high-tier. End of that story.

Low-to-Mid level folks are less OP than High Tier characters. Previous MV's ran well off them(low-to-mid). As ASTA said Most of the arguments in this OOC that I've witnessed thus far have been over questionable, implausible or downright power-gamey attacks and maneuvers enacted by several participants in this thread, by my reckoning, these have come from primarily the higher tier folks.

HT is a lot harder to manage, because it opens up a wide scope, but low-to-mid, have a smaller range and are easily fixed. If you folks want to continue on with high powered folks, then by all means, but from what I've seen that's where most of, if not all, the arguments tend to range from. Feel free to point me in the direction where this hasn't been the case.

You are right, it won't stop metagaming, but it'll make it a lot easier to manage, I believe, in some cases.

Yeah, I'm not dropping any of my characters just because a few people can't play nice or whatever.

Sort your shit out, but leave me out of it.

EDIT: If it helps, I'll be introducing a mid-tier character soon.

Know what's funny? I have two other characters. One that I have yet to introduce because I cbf'd with it right now... and another who is mid-tier, also from Exalted, and who would draw an equal amount of "YOU CAN'T DO THAT THIS ISNT HRURHURHRHUNDBKHRHDKHB" shit that Ysolda has already endured from you tossers. He's sitting pretty as the captain of the Nexus Guard now, and I guess that makes him pretty important there... so I'm not moving him.

So that means my only active character is my High-Tier, Ysolda Corinthus.
Posted in Necropoli, btw.
