[OOC] Power Rangers: Dragon Fury

[WindsOfFate]

So feelings about potential character history with regards to Helia.

- Tommy - Finish the bio!
- Finn - At times Helia might have beaten up some bullies if she saw them picking on him. She's also a bit tomboyish so there is probably a lot of mutual understanding. Only donwside is they have no interests in common, but I can see them handing out on lunch breaks etc. Also both poor kids xD
- Sa'Cha - Fellow protector of the weakest, other than that not much in common I suppose.

@Forsythe

Sa’Cha is cool with all the Rangers, especially his boo Finn, and even if for some reason any of them have an issue with him, he will try to resolve it, but even he can have a temper. He just doesn’t hide his emotions. If he doesn’t like someone you’ll know he doesn’t like someone. Won’t stop him from helping though. 😌😌

I'm probably going to post the story intro this weekend, it's going to take a bit to write it all and I work all week. You can expect the intro to be novel-quality, and it's going to be at least twice as long as Tommy's bio. It will briefly snap back to the past, and then open with Tommy in Antarctica. I will detail out the earthquake, him discovering the ship, and his first encounter with Zordon. Also, I've decided I am going to play a second character from the beginning, and it's going to be a reworking of Shelby from Dino Charge. She's also an intern under Tommy's uncle, and I'm going to play her as an awkward ubergeek. She will get overly excited about a lot of stuff and will fill a similar role to Cisco in The Flash, coming up with all kinds of corny nicknames for things that were originally called by alien names.

"Wait, you're Zordon and these are kick-ass exosuits you created? Ooh! I know! We can call them Zords! And we need awesome call-outs! Like... it's morphin time!" and everyone else just shakes their heads, hahahahaha.

Made some sheet edits, highlighted in red. Check the relationships bit especially if it is palatable ;P

Also while looking at Finn's zord and wondering how would one cram themselves into it ala Hulkbuster, I got an odea that it could have an autonomous dragon mode, and fold into a humanoid armor mode like the red dragon thunderzord. Just an idea.

Hmmm... I'm wondering if I should rework my original idea for the origin to say Tommy and Shelby are on a Summer internship at Amber Beach Dinosaur Museum instead, and the earthquake happens there and reveals the ship in a deep cave. Or rather, instead of an internship, it could be part of a fundraiser, and then they could all be there, the earthquake hits, they all fall into a deeper cave, and with no visible way back up, they head into a series of tunnels to hunt for a different way out, and stumble upon the ship. If we did that, we could all get our Ranger powers at the same time.

@WindsOfFate If you want, Granny Udonna could see an advertisement for the upcoming fundraiser, and she receives a vision, insisting that Sa'Cha must go as well.

What does everyone think?

Eh, I only went with that image because it was a pink mech that looked vaguely dragony. xD

Ooh, Finn can do a bake sale!

@Forsythe

I mean, it could work in the serpentine form, but it would be a tight fit, lol.

Inside the Hulkbuster

[Forsythe]

This is what my generation considers an exo suit xP

EDIT: And I just now realized that is not even the original set, durr.

Bruce is at the fund raiser for extra credit, because he's gonna fail English otherwise.

Anyone got any recommendations for face claim for him, by the by? I usually use illustrations, so I'm a bit out of my depth trying to find a photograph.

@Gisk

Do you have any idea of what you want him to look like?

[Gisk]

Well, Elliot from Questionable Content is one of the major inspirations for the character. A very big guy, a little squishy. Probably shaggy hair. Originally I was thinking blond, but I don't want him looking too much like Finn.

@CaptainManbeard

Sa’Cha can be there off to the side practicing his magic out of the eye of others, his Grandma asking him if he senses anything weird through their mental link. I’m down with that.

@Gisk

Hmmm... Since it would be a Summer thing, maybe it's tied to Summer School, though not sure how it would lead to him passing a high school English class :D. Though, the idea of it being a sponsored event from Angel Grove High gives me ideas to have Miss Morgan from Dino Charge as a teacher and the main chaperone for the event.

@Gisk

You could use Haley Joel Osment and just say Bruce is taller than Haley, lol.

Buy Finn’s cupcakes. :P

[Gisk]

@CaptainManbeard ah, he looks too old in these pictures, and pictures from when he was an appropriate age he was much too skinny for what I'm going for. I guess we can just use our imagination, but what's the point of a face claim if they don't actually look like the character?

@Gisk

I'll look around and drop a few more suggestions :D.

[Gisk]

I'm keeping my own eye out, but Haley is top of the list at present. We'll just throw that Marvel de-aging tech on him.

[CaptainManbeard]

Here's a few other suggestions, but they might not be the best fit. I figured I'd at least suggest them, though :D.






LOL at that last one, hahahaha. If you know, then you know XD.

Btw, for anyone who didn't know, the second and third images are Seth Rogen when he was on one of the greatest shows of all time, Freaks & Geeks.

Freaks & Geeks Opening Theme

And here's a clip of the first image, Chris Pratt, when he was on an awesome show.

Chris Pratt being a himbo dork on Everwood

EDIT: Notice in the F&G opening, Daniel (Franco) and Nick (Segel) are so stoned they are trying to clear their eyes right before their school pictures, hahaha.

[Gisk]

It's funny, I was actually also looking at Segel from Freaks and Geeks.
