[OOC] The Gifted: A Fast Paced Superpower RP

[Letter Bee]

@ArchmageMC, I think I can answer your questions:

The riot was an Anti-Metahuman protest that was made much worse by the fact that the instigator of the Anti-Metahuman protests hired a Meta (Aster) to kill several of the protesters rioting, as well as the policemen keeping order. Before this, Gary Stuart, my NPC, tried to hire several Metas (Pamela/Twist and Dean/Bojangles) to protect the protesters; he guessed that the Walt Disney Concert Hall was going to be the focal point for an attack, because, well, it's Disney. However, the Metas he hired failed spectacularly, and Aster got away, and was then ordered to abduct the mayor and take him...somewhere.

In the immediate aftermath, Ruby, a Technopath given Power Armor by the Big Bad, attacked the FBI headquarters in LA and blew it up, killing many people. Cedric, one of my PCs, as well as William, an NPC, survived, and Cedric now vows revenge.

Alec, another Metahuman who was asked to protect the protesters, refused to do so and instead began investigating on his own. He'll join the Heroes soon.

So, yeah, Chaos.

And, finally, in the aftermath, Martial Law would be called, throwing things in further disarray for the Heroic Metas and the Internal Reformist movement. So, yeah, the good guys are in a bind.

Will he manage a way to get my erupted foot outta his ass?

Probably teleport away maybe :P Haha! He's been hiding from the Mafia for a few years now and even managed to keep tabs on them by working as a mercenary, without them finding out who he is. I'd say he's pretty resourceful when it comes to flying under the radar.

Unless I missed it, Ruby will be hunted by the US Government as it does not say she took down the camera system. (I know she is in a suit but still she is now on their shit list)Also I don't own the POTUS NPC just using him to authorize a government response to the Hostile Metas. But as politics interest me I needed some way to show how things have really gotten bad. So if others wish to use him that is fine. But I do control Davis Lawton and a few NPC's I am hammering out. One is a crooked senator, the others help Elena at the FBI someway.I am open to collabs and other things if you guys want.to talk.

Ruby's been hunted down by the government her whole life. It doesn't particularly matter - the government are in awry and they need to keep the peace before they can try make arrests!

@Potato, can we talk on the page I linked you?

Thanks.

Anyone else got smash bros?

[MiddleEarthRoze]

Hey guys, just feel the need to clarify; Roze has her own personal vendetta against Apature. Just though I'd throw that out in case it's important.

Nope but I want it! I'm pretty sure that I've been invited by a friend to go play some Smash when he gets his Wii U but that'll be in January and he'll know how to play and stuff. I could beat him in Super Smash Bros Melee but yeah...

I used to play Melee and Brawl all the time. But I haven't touched my Wii in ages.

@Potato

In case you didn't see, I PMed you last night ^^

[Archmage MC]

Smash 4 is like a halfway point between Brawl and Melee. Things to remember going into it

Its a wee bit slower than melee, but not as slow as brawl
edgehoging is gone
Planking is gone
Rage is a new mechanic. Rage makes the heavyweights viable as the higher your %, the more damage and the more knockback you do.
DI is replaced with Vectoring, all you need to do is hold the control stick in the opposite direction your getting launched for the full benefit.
Lots of landing techs from Brawl/Project M
No L canceling, but some aerials can buffer cancel with b moves.
characters are rebalanced for the better. Example, Ganondorf has super armor on his standing Warlock Punch, Bowser has super armor when at a low % (And his fsmash is roadhouse) C. Falcon's Side B is now a kill move, ext... ext...
THE GAME RECEIVES BALANCE PATCHES

Guys, tomorrow, I'll be watching The Hobbit, at 11 AM, Philippine Time, meaning that I'll be absent early.

To add more to the summary Letter Bee just constructed, the first Arc dealt with the Heroes trying to protect a gang leader named Valentine Caro who possessed information on over 2000 mercs. The mercs quickly got alerted and were either instructed to kill or break Caro out. Elijah, AcerRo's character, was one of the mercs who pulled an assassination attempt on him, but thanks to Nightingale's, Cedric's and William's intervention, Caro got off easy (if you call third-degree burns easy). In the meanwhile, Cypress, the Aparture poster girl, was in pursuit of Elijah's partner, Ruby, who had earlier raided one of Aparture's assets. She finally managed to track Ruby and they argued the shit out of each other in the rooftop. Unbeknownst to Cypress, Ruby had alerted Aparture and minutes later they came in, guns blazing, and captured both Ruby and Cypress.

Nightingale held a grudge against Aparture, so she decided to join Elijah and lay vengeance on them. Cedric caught them make a deal and came to the realization that Nightingale had defected. Somewhere off-screen, the TV man was taping everything.

A few feet below Aparture was a high-security prison, in which Constantine and Alto, a government meta and a merc, broke in and rescued Cypress. Ruby was offered to join Aparture, and she accepted. That was the conclusion of Arc 1.

I know it's already past us, but the second Arc is more like an indirect continuation of the first Arc, so it's important to know both.

Also, Alec was never invited to guard the protesters.

On a completely unrelated side-note, I think I found this RP's theme song; Not Your Kind of People

It's Valentine Caro, according to the Titanpad.

Also, Alec was supposed to guard the protesters, it's even in this post.

[Teal]

Edited.

And oh shit, how the hell did I miss that? I was too focused at creating a designated path for Alec to take that I completely ignored the opportunities.

I apologize. It was my bad.

[Letter Bee]

Yes, dozens, perhaps hundreds, of fictional people could have died because of you. *Jokes*

[Kalas]

Long collab is long o.o

[Archmage MC]

Hey, can I get Light in on this action? I'd assume a collab post would be the best way to go about this?
