Zmerr The Android's Conundrum

Member Seen 5 yrs ago

A disconcerting mixture of empty black space and green code fill your vision. The blocky numbers of codes and data fly past you, making a twisting tunnel with no clear direction. There's a weird humming sound and you feel completely numb. The pin-and-needles kind of numb. Like your body is vanishing around your brain. And then-

-everything goes black. When you open your eye(s), you're laying in a field of tall, green grass. You sit up ad realize, everything has changed. You are no longer in the last place you remember being in. You're no longer even in your own body. You've taken on the form of a video game character. In your head, your memories have been replaced with those of that character. You are now literally that character.

Basically, this roleplay is a mash-up of every game the players throw together. Pick a character from any video game and become that person. Together, as a group, we will find our way to wherever it is we belong.

Character Entry Format:
Name:
Game:
Short description of abilities:
Appearance (Preferably picture):

Rules:
1) No character is better than another. This is to keep things fair. Traditionally, Link is "better" than Ganondorf, but in this case, each person is being played by a real person. So, no killing, injuring or subjecting another character to a life-changing situation without their consent.
2) Keep it PG-13. There's nothing wrong with romance, but try to keep the spicy stuff limited to PMs.
3) Post frequently. It becomes really difficult to keep things going when a major character is missing for days and everyone is waiting for their response. After a week of inactivity without warning, we will write your character out. That might include but is not limited to death.
4) Give some warning. I'm going to make it the three day rule. If you know you're going to be unavailable or difficult to reach for 3 or more days, post about it in the OOC. That way we can play around if we need to.
5) Be creative. This is just as much your roleplay as it is mine. You don't need permission to shake things up a bit. I hate roleplays with that "what I say goes" rule. So be original. The only time I'd ask for you to pass it by me is if you strongly feel it might break one of the rules.
6) keep it interesting. Just because I said keep it PG-13 does not mean make it dull. Profanity is fine. I'll probably use some myself. Also, if you want to ad gore, go ahead. Kill people or whatever.
7) Have fun! This is just as much your roleplay as it is mine, so enjoy it! If it gets boring or you don't like something, tell the rest of us.

I wonder....
truth be told I tried to make my own MMORP (well design it as I lack the potential to make it for real)
but I guess I cant play with a char from that one can I?

also what about items, random dropping and all, how do you plan to go with that?

I am not saying I will join (not yet) cause I need to take up for my own time and as I need to figure out how to go with this idea

I was hoping that the characters would be from existing video games because non-existent video games would mean OCs which kind of defeats the purpose of the roleplay. Now, if you play a game like World of Warcraft and want to use a character that you made there, that could work because there is some kind of reference to go off of.

I'm not saying that characters have to be exactly the way they appear in the game either. Add your own twist if you'd like. I'm changing my character a little bit to fit the roleplay. In the game, he's a robot and doesn't have any arms or legs so i'm going to turn him into an android.

As for drops and stuff, that's pretty easy. you can make it be anything really. Because this is a mash-up of whatever games people want, the items can also be from various games. Though I do request that they are within reason. If an enemy drops and item like Nayru's Love or something, it better be a one time use with a definite end of effect. Either that or don't make it a drop. Make it harder to get than just killing an enemy.

I'll be putting my CS up in a few minutes.

Originally, I had planned not to be so cliche and to not pick a main character but now I figure, why the hell not.

Name: John Marston

Name: Wheatley
Game: Portal 2
Short description of abilities: For the sake of this roleplay, he will be an android. Literally created to be an idiot, but will never admit to it. Klutz. Good at coming up with bad ideas.
Appearance (Preferably picture): Six foot seven with glasses and a British accent.

with the drops I meant like, how do you control the amount of drops
cause no game ever had an 100% drop rate and people can drop like whatever they want if they get the chance so...

no I know something better then
Delsin rowe, infamous second son
however the tweeks in this case are: he starts with cole his powers and later on gain other powers not included in either game (however they will and must follow the games systems (though with a little tweek here and there)
for example (only taking the powers effects now)

X- trusters and jumping power
O- dash (even cole powers will get a dash)
square- melee
triangle (free)- other actions as subdue target or interact
triangle (with aiming L2)- missle type
touchpad- drain

R2- shoot basic
R1- Blast
R3- defence power
L2- aim
L1- ability
L3- .... I forgot XD

+pad:
up- persision (IF able (not all elements have this)
down- karma bomb/ special power
right- throw grenade

due to infamous2 having had the ability to choose from various powers for one button, character can choose between 3 missiles, 3 grenades and 3 abilities at the power screen (in play this would mean like meditation or something I guess) all 3 can be unlocked but only one can be used for each or the 3 types

also I noticed some powers come with passive abilities, so each element will have that as well

dont worry I will make sure he is not too powerful (outside the matter of having to pretty much absorb enough of the element he is using as it runs out) and I will first bring up a list of all powers he can learn in due time of each element
I also will keep a karma ranking due to certain upgrades are only able to be used when the required karma rank has been reached and he will start with pretty much only the basic powers
(meaning: melee(not a power but it is enhanced to a degree with an element, nothing interesting though), basic shoot, subdue (good karma interaction), aim (not a power), dash.
also both Cole and Delsin are pretty much free climbers or city climbers or how ever you call it

should likely mention that a condiut can pretty much fall from great heights and survive with no scratches and increased healing (nothing to much though) any other thing can still kill a conduit

That is completely up to the person. Completely circumstantial. Just don't be like, "Oh boy do I need one of these!" *kills on monster* "Oh looky here! I found one!" You know? But if someone kills something, it could "drop" whatever. I suppose you could write it in however you like. For example, you need a piece of armor so you kill a guard or something and take the armor off of him. Also, if it makes sense to get a specific item from something, write that in too. Take the armor for example again. You wouldn't likely kill a wolf to get armor. Likewise, you wouldn't kill a guard for fur. I would prefer it made some kind of sense.

Drops can be available to anyone who needs them, even if the game they came from has none. My character comes from a game with no drops.

By "other conduits," what do you mean?

Edit: Also, is it possible to get a picture of your character?

I've never played Infamous so I'm not exactly following. What is a conduit power? Could you PM me the details and explain a little bit about the game? Because, as of now, I'm totally lost.

I'll take Terra Branford from Final Fantasy VI. She's a half esper with powerful inherent magical abilities.

I'll elaborate when I have a real computer and not just my phone.

I'll take a look at it in a bit. I'm technically supposed to be working right now. I'm not doing a very good job of it.

I'm pretty sure at this point I want to do one TF2 character. The Pyro is high on my list but it would be quite difficult to develop a character for him, so I'm considering the Engineer instead.

It seems as though we have quite the interesting cast so far. I'm not much experienced in most of the games mentioned thus far (other than Portal), but I have at least heard of them and done some research. I'm really interested to see where this goes.

Well we've got a cowboy, an andriod, some sort of space assassin, a half esper and a combat engineer. This'll be interesting.

Also Lugubrious, it's your turn to post in Zelda.

Should make for a good roleplay, I think. Given the diversity. And the same goes for me, Zmerr. I've heard of/am slightly acquainted with all of the games listed but I don't know much about them lol.

I would like to remind everyone, I would like to see pictures of the characters. If you can't/don't want to post a picture, please at least write a physical description of them. Or do a combination. I understand the phone issues. I use my phone sometimes too.

Name: Terra Branford
Game: Final Fantasy VI
Short description of abilities: A half esper with powerful inherent magic abilities, usually centered around offensive fire magic and healing though at later levels she learns magic involving holy energy, gravity and petrification. As a half esper she is capable of taking on a full esper form for short periods of time. During this transformation her stats double granting her much stronger abilities. While in this state however her magic becomes more violent and harder to control, she may end up hurting allies and even herself and as such does not use it except in the most dire circumstances. Her magical abilities scare her and she has some issues controlling them. She was given the nickname the Reluctant Destroyer by her commander, a cruel man named Kefka for the way that she would injure friend as well as foe when she attempted to help using her powers.
Appearance:
The white creature in the background is her esper form.
