[OOC] S E C O N D C H A N C E S (An Isekai Adventure)

[Scarifar]

@Thinslayer well I’m waiting on you, at least. Dunno about anyone else.

[ArmorPlated]

Definitely interested, and have enough character ideas that I may just end up putting it to a dice roll.

That being said, are all the PCs waking up from the coffins, or just some?

[Thinslayer]

@ArmorPlated Some, for those where it's appropriate.

[ArmorPlated]

Righto, so care to weigh in on some of the character ideas I'm considering?

[Thinslayer]

@ArmorPlated Absolutely! What do you got?

[ArmorPlated]

Well let's see

1) Ghostly White-Mage/Healing Spirit. (Stuck with two spells without help, but a little can go a long way. White Mage already down, so no need to panic.)

2) Wraith / temporary bodysnatcher. (Hijack people's bodies and fight with them. heart-stoppingly spooky.)

3) Minotaur Lightning-Bruiser. (Huge, fast and strong. Mix in lightning symbol-magic for one hell of a charge.)

4) Minotaur Archer. (Imagine a walking siege ballista with horns. Bullseye.)

5) Paper-golem. (Recycled idea from an RP that folded. A walking, talking spellbook, potentially good for boosting magical abilities. Also shapeshifting!)

6) Quicksilver golem. (T-1000 on fantasy steroids. Really malleable concept.)

Edit:
7) Old Dryad. (Another healer-ish character, probably way more in tune with nature. Older than the trees, in this world and the otherworld.)

Each one has a few potential pre-reincarnation histories that will act as the character's driving force.

[TheFox]

All of them look like cool characters!

Made a small post, give others the chance to react to everything going on.

[Dark Cloud]

All of them look like cool characters and it is also true we don't have any healer(s) yet.

@TheFox

That's metagaming.

[TheFox]

@Dark Cloud

...Solved...?

[Dark Cloud]

@Dark Cloud

...Solved...?

@TheFox

I was just pointing it out, it wasn't really a problem.

[TheFox]

No worries, it's good you did. Did not realize it myself.

@ArmorPlated
Wait, are you saying there's a chance we get our own Grimoire Weiss for this RP?!

[Thinslayer]

I think if we didn't have as many Voidspawn characters as we do, a good-aligned Ascended character might be interesting. As it stands, we're a little overrun with immortals. :P

2) Wraith / temporary bodysnatcher. (Hijack people's bodies and fight with them. heart-stoppingly spooky.)
Interesting concept! The Voidspawn kind of do that already, albeit permanently. We might have to hammer out a different system for bodysnatching magic.

3) Minotaur Lightning-Bruiser. (Huge, fast and strong. Mix in lightning symbol-magic for one hell of a charge.)
coughalistarcough? xD Sounds interesting. Minotaurs don't get much representation in fantasy stories, so color me interested.

4) Minotaur Archer. (Imagine a walking siege ballista with horns. Bullseye.)
A longbow would be an amazing weapon for him. I'm imagining him teaming up with MacKenzie.

5) Paper-golem. (Recycled idea from an RP that folded. A walking, talking spellbook, potentially good for boosting magical abilities. Also shapeshifting!)
...from an RP that folded? That better be pun-intended! :P Anyway, it's an intriguing idea. As Rabidporcupine pointed out, you could do something like Grimoire Weiss.

6) Quicksilver golem. (T-1000 on fantasy steroids. Really malleable concept.)

Some lore about that

Actually sounds like something the Ancients might have created in this world. The counter-invasion forces deployed 1000 years ago consisted primarily of two kinds of units: battle-droids and warp-fighters. Both types were fully sapient, a point of contention for their civilization back then. Battle-droids were shapeshifting infantry, while warp-fighters were shapeshifting space superiority types that doubled as heavy ground support (like mecha, but more organic and fluid). The Voidspawn possessed most of the battle-droids and turned them against their former masters, yielding a nightmare scenario that no one had a real answer for. Together with their own indigenous organic units, the Voidspawn brought the civilization on Aion to the brink of extinction.

7) Old Dryad. (Another healer-ish character, probably way more in tune with nature. Older than the trees, in this world and the otherworld.)
We don't have one of those yet. Sounds fun.

[Dark Cloud]

I am very very humid atm, I need rain badly.

5) Paper-golem. (Recycled idea from an RP that folded. A walking, talking spellbook, potentially good for boosting magical abilities. Also shapeshifting!)
...from an RP that folded? That better be pun-intended! :P

@Thinslayer

Ha, awesome. I feel bad I missed that one :D

[Zool]

@Dark CloudYou next?

[Dark Cloud]

@Zool I am?

[Thinslayer]

It might be me. But I've got my work cut out for me.

[Dark Cloud]

@Thinslayer I'll post after lunch.

[ArmorPlated]

There are puns and jokes in most of those lol, you even missed the first pun in #5. Also, what's Grimoire Weiss?

Also, 1 and 2 are just a loose human soul, just with the "otherworld" power bump associated with reincarnations. No divine or dark forces involved.
