[OOC] Mobile Suit Gundam - Those Who Correct - Crossover

[vancexentan]

This is the ending just before the timeskip. If you want to do anything with your character before said time then this is the chance.

[vancexentan]

I'll see about posting tomorrow or the day after. Why I'm uncertain is because I'm in need of doing ORB's plot line AND I got to do some hard labor work with my grand father at his own insistence (why he wants me to is beyond me I'm awful with tools)

[Rhona W]

Hello, everyone. Vance advertised the RP as in need of more players, and I thought I'd try my hand.
I'm a big fan of Gundam, and Real Robot anime in general, and I have extensive RP experience. I hope that it comes through in my posts, and that I fit in well with the rest of you.

I apologize if I take a while in posting. Generally I check the site every day, and try to get posts up at least once or twice a week on average, RL permitting. I always try and check on on the OOC thread if I think I'm going to be delayed or there's an issue too.

Character's Name: Rowen Bracket

Character's Age: 28

Character's Gundam/Mobile Suit:
1st mobile suit (Start of rp) being used: Zeta Plus C1

Link to gundam site you're getting your information from: The Gundam Wiki

Appearance:

Wears a normal EFSF Normal Suit when piloting his Mobile Suit. Wears a 'semi casual' version of the EFF uniform (like the 08th MS Team) otherwise.

Genetic Type: Non-Newtype

Biography:
Rowan lost both his mother, and his sister after the One Year War, when Zeon Remnants dropped a colony on North America as part of their Operation Stardust. His father, a veteran of the One Year War, was left crippled by the same action.
Rowan was in space at the time, serving onboard a Salamis-class cruiser as a GM pilot, and could do nothing to stop the colony from falling to Earth, only participate in the ongoing battle against the Delaz Fleet.

Following this, he refused to become part of the Titans, and disapproved wholly of their heavy-handed methods and aggression against anyone showing any kind of dissent or differing opinion. Eventually, he found himself disillusioned with the EFF as it had become and drifting within his duties in the military, serving only as a means to earn money to look after his increasingly ill father.
Finally taking a stand and actively participating in resistance against the Titans on Earth, he ended up working with and as part of the AEUG and Karaba faction that were opposed to the Titans and the Federation leadership, and went on to participate in a number of small-scale battles around the Earth Sphere.
Following the end of the Gryps conflict, he became a test-pilot for Anaheim Electronics, and remained with them for the opening blows and the majority of the first Neo-Zeon war. He was later assigned to their development and test program.
After the New Desides revealed themselves with the Pezun rebellion, he was quickly seconded as a priority to Taskforce Alpha and was due to be sent out with the first wave of reinforcements for the ships of Alpha with another S-Gundam prototype as well as other Mobile Suits and equipment.
While en route from the Lunar Surface facilities of Anaheim Electronics to the orbiting ships, he detected an incoming signal, and then heavy interference before passing out.

I hope that's okay. Regarding the mobile suits, I tried to make things balance out fairly evenly between the first and second-level suits. The Gundam Wiki states that the S-Gundam was developed from the Double-Zeta, but I think having a ZZ as my first suit was way too powerful. A mass-production Zeta seemed far more reasonable to me.
Disregard, I've changed the suits over, after a bit of consideration.

I also tried to tie big events in the UC into my characters background in an indirect way; that he was affect by them, rather than participating in them in a big way. I hope that came across well.
There's not much info about his personality, but I'm thinking he's fairly driven and aggressive, maybe a bit of a hothead, but can be reflective and learns quickly from his mistakes. We'll see how he comes out in the RP.

Any ideas on how to introduce them - I could use some guidance on that. Assuming he's approved, of course.

[vancexentan]

It's a stretch getting the middle suit in but I think I can work it out. As for the posting time most of us are busy, or inactive in some worst cases, so I wouldn't worry about that. As for introducing him I think I can either edit him into the rp via the timeskip that just happened or he could betray The Sleeves group led by the bodyguard guy of full frontal and join us. Since I'm planning on having

spoiler for battle

Sellar Loussier once again betray the enemy like the previous rp's

it isn't a stretch to imagine you would do the same once you see how they are treating Stellar like a weapon.

[Rhona W]

I would've started off with the S-Gundam, but I thought it would've been way too overkill for a beginning suit, and I wouldn't have known where to go for the 3rd one either, since the Ex-S is insane as it is. I thought the MP-Zeta was a better choice. If you can fit it in though, then okay.
I'm not sure he'd be likely to ally with the Sleeves due to his personal history with Zeon and Zeon-associated groups (pretty sure he'd have a strong feeling of negativity toward them for Stardust), but they could've tricked or deceived him into following them.
That said though, It'd be more interesting to enter by something like that than just ping into existence after the timeskip without an introduction of any interesting kind.

Anyhow, I'll have a think about it, and a re-read tomorrow - I'm off to bed now, as it's late here.

Also, regarding the middle suit again - I did write in my BG that he was on his way to a ship with the suit aboard when he disappeared and woke up in the game universe - it could be that the whole ship came along, and was captured before the crew had a chance to come around, and S-Gundam was taken along with it, to be 'retrieved' later on.

[vancexentan]

well the sleeves would be the only person nearby and seeing as people like Duo and Treize can team up temporarily it's something. I mean in the game Trowa, and Duo both end up on the 'evil' side against Heero alongside Zechs.

As for the power of these suits yeah that's to be expected when you're fighting suits like Nu and Double OO Raiser late game.

In this case you could be only there to keep an eye on them and since you can easily lie to them, the sleeves aren't exactly on par with people from some number of years ago and an ancient suit could be whatever to them, Or you could be linked to Stellar. Maybe you found her and they threatened to kill her if you don't comply with what they want. After all extended need medical attention constantly.

Also having another ship, while it worked in the previous roleplay, sort of hampered character interaction and made for some annoying dynamics in game. The Sundown suffices for what is going on now. If you want people you know later on in the roleplay all the more power to you but that'd be rather late game.

[Sugihito]

I can see a Wing Gundam as an opponent in a later battle, probably from Donna's alternate After Colony. I'll get a post to catch up with the timeskip, explaining what she and her mentor were doing to help keep the ship alive.

[vancexentan]

The reason I didn't include you in the fights in the timeskip is because you'd likely be SOL on fighting anyone but Stella(r). It's really me not wanting to wreck sandrock.

I like the idea of being blackmailed into helping or lied to, that would work really well. I think I'll follow that idea to enter the game. Should I wait for an intro or mention in a post first, or should I try and come up with something on my own?

Sorry, I didn't explain the idea fully, probably because I was running off to sleep - I didn't intend to have a second ship as I agree completely that it would make things awkward. I was more implying that the ship 'came along' or whatever as well, and was then captured and either appropriated by the enemy for their own use, or destroyed after being looted. But that was just a suggestion, I'm far more than happy to follow whatever intention or idea you have. I was just throwing out ideas with the intention of trying to help or make suggestions. It's your game and I'm happy to be playing at all!

[vancexentan]

I'll make something up in a couple hours or so since I just work up and I don't want to make posts at six in the morning. I'll bring you in using the enemy leaders and or Stellar. However the Sleeves will be using their canon ship for this fight. This is mainly because most factions will be with members of their own group. Like Amuro with Bright, and The Druggies with their boss however there will be some acceptions to this.Don't worry about ships or whatever just chill I'll take care of it.

[vancexentan]

Also Sug could you expand your post? You don't have anything on what you are doing with your characters right now as if they're on patrol or just hanging around or whatever be it. I haven't done anything with my characters because I wanted to see what the others are doing.

[vancexentan]

I left the spot open for whatever you want to do with your guy silver. He can be at the meeting, he could've skipped it, he could be in his suit, whatever. Also I tried my best to keep from spoiling stuff but I couldn't keep my post without indicating where people are and their affiliations.

[Arthanus]

ill get up a post later tonight. Fiance wants to watch twilight so ill need something to keep me sane.

[vancexentan]

[Arthanus]

Ha ha!!! I won!!!! I got her to watch LOTR instead! so much better. Love my Nerdy GF

[vancexentan]

[Rhona W]

My first post is up, I hope it's okay. I had a lot of fun writing it.

[vancexentan]

Its pretty good blade

[Rhona W]

Thanks. I'm sure they'll get better once I get to grips with everything.

[vancexentan]

I have faith in you.
