[OOC] Gundam Build Fighters Maximum - IC and OOC

[Sugihito]

In 1979, the ground-breaking real-robot anime Mobile Suit Gundam aired in Japan for the first time, resulting in the boom in the sale of plastic model kits based on the robots, or “Mobile Suits” of the show. The sales of the model-kits, or “Gunpla” as they are commonly called by fans and officials alike helped the franchise grow, making more shows and new Gunpla available at shows. In the year 2000 Gundam saw the first large scale overseas exposure starting with “Mobile Suit Gundam Wing”, globalising the franchise to reach the Americas and Europe. Tis resulted in countless kits in different scales such as the “High Grade”, “Master Grade”, “Perfect Grade” and “Real Grade” made for builders of all sorts. They are customizable as well, making way for new Mobile Suit ideas through new colour scheme or new equipment/features, making the possibility infinite. The boom was brought even further by the discovery of Plavsky Particles by PPSE. The Plavsky Particles have the property to animate plastic model kits, finally allowing the common dream using your own Gunpla to fight others. With no risks of lives unlike the television shows, a lot of people joined the hobby. The surge of popularity resulted in World Tournaments where builders from around the world gather to determine the best Gunpla and fighter but that is another story. Now we are three years after the 7th Gunpla World Tournament. The expansion of Gunpla Battles saw no brakes that apart from the world tournament, other tournaments began appearing in the horizons such as the regional tournaments and under 19 competitions held nationally. The United States is part of this new boom, where national tournaments began. The tournament we will look at is the “Under-19 Team US National”, where 64 teams from the 50 states participate and fight for the title of the Nation’s strongest. You are all students of Von Braun High School and in order to participate, you will need a team and must go through the State Qualifiers. Will Von Braun High qualify into the National Tournament? Can Von Braun achieve the glory of victory, crowning themselves the strongest in America? Now as the introduction is moved aside, this is a RP roleplay based on the Gundam franchise’s Gundam Build Fighters. We start with forming a team to represent a local high school and qualifying in the State tournament. Standard Mobile Suits from all shows are allowed, customisations are allowed but keep in mind not to make it overpowered. We will fight other teams that use a variety of Gunpla, from unmodded to heavily customised. The number of players for now are undermined along with team size for now. Additionally I will allow upgrades part way for anyone that wants them. When I say upgrades are available at a certain point, feel free in submit a new Mobile Suits where I will look and approve. Rules: - Listen to GM. The GM will act and judge as fairly as possible for the RP. Respect his decisions. - No overpowering okay? At some point with the excuse of build problems, some enemies and allies may be nerfed for fair fights and you should know the limits of your character and Gunpla. - Standard RP Guild rules apply Character Sheet: Name: Age: Gender: Appearance: (written or picture) Favourite Gundam series: Personality: History: Gunpla Info: Name: Model number: Gunpla role: Gunpla model scale: Gunpla based from if original: Armaments: Special Features: Description: Examples are in the Characters page.

This seems interesting...think there is room for a Shin Musha Gundam here?

[Sugihito]

There's plenty of room!

[Archangel89]

So first off are the actual giant robots were piloting or like models that we control?

[vancexentan]

the models dude.

Also I'll be the first to point out you're (Sughito) missing your character's history section and he should really be in a different OOC post than the first post.

[Sugihito]

In the first post as an example. History is there also.

Name: Gary Miller
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Gary has light brown hair and green eyes. His hair is short and straight and low cut. He has thin eyebrows and a small body frame. He normally wears a white or blue t-shirt with his signature black striped yellow jacket. The stripes go across the jacket and the jacket has no pockets. He wears casual black sweat pants normally but is known to just wear whatever he needs to at any time.
Favorite Gundam series: Mobile Suit ZZ Gundam
Personality: Gary is a free spirited young man whom likes to joke and comment sarcastically whenever he thinks he can get away with it. He loves to just lounge around and dream about whatever comes to mind. He is very close to his brothers and views it as a personal insult to mess with any of them. Gary has been known to idly complain about things that bother him but he normally only does this when he is by himself or with few people. Many people mistake him for a jock due to his surprisingly healthy look but in reality he rarely goes outside and when he does it's either to eat or get supplies. He prefers the inside to the outside normally but he doesn't complain about going outside and being a lazy out there either. However unknown to his hometown classmates whom are not into anime he is proud to say he has watched over sixty different animes in his life and has gotten into Gunpla. He is very passionate about his skills in gunpla battle but he doesn't take it personally if he loses or if someone insults him. However if someone does do so he does hold a grudge of sorts which he won't actively pursue until he views it's the best time to do so.

As a gunpla maker he admits he isn't nearly as good as his older brother and not as technical as his younger brother and is happy with being simply above average. He likes to admire other people's works. His least favorite series is Gundam SEED and SEED Destiny due to him personally disliking Kira often mocking him calling him 'Jesus Yamato' and Shin Asuka as a garbage pilot. He grew fond of the more light hearted or silly pilots due to their more laid back personalities but does love the likes of Char Aznable and Graham Aker.

History: Born to the Miller Family in Southern New Jersey, Gary was said to have been oddly silent as a baby and had not even so much as shed a tear at his birth. As a baby Gary was taken care of by his older brother Brian Miller and his father Jake Miller. His mother was a hard working teacher and while she disliked the fact that he was surrounded by a nerdy dad all day she accepted that she had no other choice. Gary was basically raised on cartoons and other goofy shows as young child and while he didn't laugh Gary's dad often told him he watched the shows very intently. His brother Brian often played with him and was generally glad to be an older brother. Two years after Gary was born his younger brother Jarrett was born and thus started his own life as an older brother. His aunt Sarah often came to take care of him while his dad took care of his poor overworked father. As a young child Gary was often seen reading and writing down notes in books but he grew out of these habits soon after grade school. He had a crush on one girl but it never went anywhere and Gary figured it was better that things just roll out as they did instead of actively forced out. Gary's grades didn't drop due to his tendency to not study and instead were rather decent as Gary showed that he was a very smart child but he could've been more if he had chosen to take a different path. Instead Gary chose to take the gunpla route and learned from his dad and older brother. His first series was Mobile Suit Gundam Wing and he built Shenlong as his first model with help from his brother.

As his life progressed more and more Gary watched all sorts of shows and did all sorts of varying crafts but was hardly very social but he did attract certain groups of people to his circle as he was more laid back and calm about life in general and many people admired that. As a brother he looked up to Brian whom would become a masterful gunpla builder the likes of which his hometown had never seen. His younger brother was also showing promise and Gary encouraged his interest in gunpla and he was more good with the technical side and putting together models of varying quality. However he was especially good at finding ways to modify the suits that his brother made. As for Gary himself he was good at painting and repairing the models rather than making them or editing them. At his father's constant pestering Gary joined the gunpla club in high school and used his Alpha Shenlong model to fight with other students in the club earning a reputation for being a valued team mate or a crazy opponent. He specialized in melee combat but managed to hold his own with beam rifles though he didn't like snipers and didn't like bulkier suits like the Dom or the Sandrock.

Eventually all three brothers managed to get into the same school around the junior year in middle school as his older brother Brian was tutoring younger students as an assistant teacher at the request of one of his older teachers as he felt Brian knew more about the subject than most kids and could help them and Jarrett had just entered the school. Gary, Jarrett, and Brian all entered a regional tournament and were sponsored by their school's gunpla club while another group participated in a local tournament and they ended up winning the tournament thanks to their awesome team work but were sadly left unnoticed by the crowds and scouts. It was't until summer where they entered a tournament while being sponsored by his mother's company that they actually managed to get somewhat noticed as Team Hive Mind and they built custom models to match. Deciding to go with the unorthodox he picked Alvaron and add additions to it by taking the shield from Reborns Gundam and along with it four fangs but had to reduce the size of it in order for it to fit on the arm. His little brother also made an ingenious little device that allowed him to use the plavsky particles into a defensive weapon as a bubble shield and or produce a energy shield. His brother also adjusted the model to fight like the F91 by adjusting the hands in such a way the let them spin when activated via console. He got this idea at this time because he was watching the show at the time. Together they got to the semi-finals before being eliminated. His brother had been overwhelmed in his Greater Nu Gundam and his little brother had been sniped early in his Gundam Savior Hero. Gary after this defeat dropped out of the public scene while his brother Brian continued and Jarrett dropped the whole thing entirely losing interest. Gary has since done nothing worth noting but has been recently been inducted into a transfer student program in order to see more of the world outside of New Jersey.

Gunpla Info:

Name: Reborn(s) Alvaron
Model number: HM-01R/B Alvaaron
Gunpla role: Assistance/Offensive
Gunpla model scale: 1/100 Master Grade
Gunpla based from if original: GNMS-XCVII Alvaaron - Retains the Gold Colors but the blue parts have been painted white.
Armaments:
2 x GN Beam Rifle
2 x GN Beam Saber
GN Particle Beam Cannon
Spinning Hands
Shield - Four GN Fangs
Special Features:
GN Energy Shield Generator
Description: The suit comes with a beam shield that is placed in the chest cavity of the suit and is opened via console command just like most other weapons. It only takes a couple of moments to activate but it is cumbersome to move around with and is usually just for show. Likewise the shield generator can also use the plavsky particles to produce a small bubble shield like the Gundam Virtue. It prevents movement however while in use and leaves the user vulnerable while it is deactivating which takes a moment in itself.
