[OOC] Super Hero RP

[PhantomSekai]

Well, I think for certain arcs, they can be summed up in one session so to speak. For example, Knightmare, while probably going to be somewhat disturbing and action packed, it's not really something that needs multiple visits to deal with. it's just going to be dealing with whatever dark forces are involved with the book she accidentally destroyed, but beyond that (and possible trauma and mental scars and will re-appear in later portions of teh story) there's not much to focus on. So, for other characters though, they might need multiple points to deal with. So, if you guys don't mind, for those with arcs that you think you could break up, please just post now (not on the CS) how you'd break them up. For each portion, we'll do it, then go on to a different character in the order, and come back at a later point to continue.

Yes, I guess that each story arc would be pretty different in scope and now that you've asked us to break it down like that and I've actually thought about it, I guess Gwen's could really be done in one hit as well.

Basically, she'd reach 'fully healed' status and reveal to herself and others whether she is or is not human and then the aftermath of that revelation would pretty much happen immediately. Either she'd make a play to reclaim her father's estate or ...not, if it turns out she's actually just a program.

I guess I just imagined her step mother's goons showing up and attacking her directly or hacking attempts affecting her actions in battle and stuff and didn't want those scenes to steal away from other's story arcs. And I also thought maybe she'd just get fed up of waiting and make smaller, less successful attempts at taking down her stepmother like breaking into the mansion and stuff.

Maybe the place for these smaller, personal side-stories would be the downtime posts, where everyone leaves the HQ to go and do their own thing. That way it wouldn't require everyone's input but if someone wanted to join in and come to their aid or something, they could make interesting little interludes to set stuff up for later, instead of giant enemy organisations allied against one of our characters suddenly springing up when it's time for their arc.

So is there anything I'm missing or are we all good?

[Shard]

I think everyone is just waiting for RP to start

[PhantomSekai]

Alright, the first IC post should be up in the next few days.

[Shard]

In the meantime, I need to work on some mean...timers....he...he...hehe....I..need to make some villains...

[Lookie]

Making villains is fun. Playing them is fun too.

... been too long since I last played a villain.

[PhantomSekai]

If you guys want to check out the sinners rp I linked before you can, just go ahead I bumped it s you should be able to find it.

[PhantomSekai]

Alright, I'm gonna ask something that may seem a little strange of everyone, but I am having writer's block for a good opening, so instead of me just posting a normal opening, I want everyone to post a little excerpt about their respective characters going to the base of operation for the first time. (Think a Justice League base just a little bit more low tech)

[Shard]

I posted. I presumed that we didn't know each other and went with that.

[PhantomSekai]

The post is good, I like it, nice setup and introduces us to the character well.

[Shard]

Thanks! ^^

[RainDash]

There we are. I've posted. I hope it's not too long… ^^'

[PhantomSekai]

Another good intro post.

[Lookie]

So how mad are you guys gonna be if I tell you that my killer headache's kind of stopping me from writing right now? I'll try my best, but I have this feeling that I might need a good nights sleep before I'm able to write anything acceptable.

[PhantomSekai]

I won't have mine up for at least another 10 hours unless I get a wind of inspiration, just post by this weekend and we'll be good.

[Lookie]

I do think I should have my post up in 12-14 hours. Definitely before Sunday.

EDIT: Also, just read the posts that have been written. Good job! It'll be fun to RP with ya guys.

[cunfuzzler]

I might be going out of town to pick up a motherboard which would force me to delay, if not though, I should have a post up within 24 hours. Kinda hard to gauge, because my friends like to drag me away for stupid stuff at unreasonable hours sometimes.

[Shard]

Yay, character interaction!

[PhantomSekai]

Alright guys, I'm sorry but I just can't write up anything good. It doesn't help that I'm not feeling good about my character at all really, but I'm going to have to just withdraw myself from this RP all together. That being said, I don't think that me leaving has to be the end of this. Someone else can take over and run story arcs, I mean writing an introductory arc isn't that hard. Just make up a common enemy, have them fight, move on with eprsonal stories and such.

At first I was in love with this idea, but as time went on and I developed my Sinners idea, I realized I didn't really want to do a superhero RP. I think you guys can handle me not running this though, I believe. Sorry to drop but I just can't write for something that I don't have any true "desire" to RP out.
