Also, if putting some numbers are really that detrimental to your writing process, you don't really seem that creative to me. No offense.

This is hilarious. Just sayin'.

[MelonHead]

Actually, Skallagrim is pretty serious about detail in sheets.

Leaving things deliberately vague is just cheating, essentially.

[Green]

Okay. Since I've got more time on my hands now; Khan, do you want me to roll up any faction-related characters to help move the story along?

[GreivousKhan]

Still have not really got peoples opinions on my previous suggestion.

Btw, Guru sheet has to be vague for him to be 'creative'. :P

He once pulled all his dead ancestors out in one fight and even Rilla was like "Dafuaq?"

[Green]

What was your previous suggestion?

So this useless talk about vibration aids done? :K Alright seeing as SKalla will be on his hiatus for some time, I think we should probably work on the multiverse story itself. Get some context for why characters would engage each other and generally give people something to do. Since it has got to the point every one has no idea what they should do, so start talking about theoretical weapons. I mean I assume that's why most of the characters already accepted have yet to do anything. I've actually been thinking of going full spectrum and have three factions vying for control of the nexus for their own reasons. It was kind of what I suggested before to Skalla, though he seemed to have only gone with making one. So in order to generate more conflict and chance of interaction between players, I think a max of three archetypical factions might be the best option. Ones largely flexible enough in ideals that every character can find one that meshes well with their goals. We already have a heavily law/paladins/space police regime in the Angar-Rylla. Not sure yet what the other two could be, but it should still remain that character interaction is the main focus, factions themselves merely a means to that end. Interaction between other faction members need not always be violent, but at least it will give players a believable reason to bash each others heads in rather then some vague reason like "I don't like the cut of his jib." So thoughts on this idea? Ways we could expand it? Or do you think wandering cluster we have no is fine? And if so why? Or maybe you have some other better idea's. Give me your brain matter on this topic. :K I mean thoughts.

Gosh, what would the muiltiverse be without me. :K

[Alphakoka]

So Khan, I do get a free punch on you now.

[Vordak]

KHAAAN IT WASNT USELESS

*flails*

[Schradinger]

Vordak has now become a vibrating weapon.

Oh, the irony. THE IRONY!!!

Anyways, I'm perfectly fine with three factions. The Ryllans are obviously one, the second could be a chaos/anarchist/freedom faction as was suggested before (though the addition of freedom-loving people would make it not inherently bad), and Clockwork Man and Arty could be the third faction. I'm serious about that, btw. They'd be an intermediate between the totalitarianism of the Ryllans and the choatic anarchy of the other faction, knowing that laws are necessary to preserve peace but also that too much restriction leads to bad stuff. Like revolt. And the stagnation of progress.

EDIT: Or there's always Jessibelle. Though her faction sounds remarkably similar to the Ryllans as far as her wanting control over everything. I'm not sure how well we'd do with two of the major factions being near carbon copies of each other ideals-wise.

Ya, I was thinking of a highly rebellion/freedom faction being one of the three, maybe even made up of those who broke away from the Ryllan empire. :K

The third one I was thinking of could be a highly peace loving/religious/philosophy faction, Ones who believe in defending the dreamers and maintaining the status quo so to speak. So instead of seeking to control the nexus, their goals would involve protecting it, the dreamers, and keeping balance of the multiverse as is.

That way we would have three extremely different factions, those who want order and law, those who want freedom from any establishment, and the protectors of the nexus. :K

[Schradinger]

That could work. Though that's more of a long term thing. Green's offer was to provide characters to get the RP moving in the short term, which I for one would really appreciate. >_>

Maybe he could write somebody in the Perdo Wastes. A general or something.

[GreivousKhan]

I'll believe it when I see it, everyone says they'll do it and have done jack shit. :I

[Schradinger]

Well then tell him what kind of character needs to be there. He can't very well move things along if he doesn't know where they need to be moved to.

What in the world are you talking about?

This.

[GreivousKhan]

I can't really answer that question, best I can say is make a character and something is bound to come up sooner or later.

I still have to decide where I'll have the Omni tool. No idea what the direction the story will go.

[TheBiddz]

Im cool with other factions. I think it'd really help spice the place up

[LeeRoy]

On a whim, Guru, I decided to read through your character sheet. And holy shit, I just HAD to review it. Good lord, man.

What I meant to say, is that if you need a character (preferably villain) for a specific faction to move that faction's plot along, then I am your guy. Villains are my forte, and I think it would be for the best if I rolled up a character that was fine-tuned to the setting for the sole purpose of helping the plot along, rather than trying to do solely my own thing. I like to think that you have a good perspective of what is needed in that regard.

And to answer your previous questions. I also support the idea of a three-way faction conflict thing.

Angar-Rylla
Undefined-whatever-Anarcy-yolo
Nexus Guardians

Seem like a decent set-up to me. Leaves plenty of room for people to pick their fancy.

Got company over today, and yesterday, and likely tomorrow as well. So posting will be slow at best.
