Would probably make more sense if Ant's was lower and Sigma's was higher. Also kinda hilarious that Elora's is as high as it is. But honestly I figure it doesn't make a huge difference as far as the story/characters anyway.

Elora's high synchro would explain why she's recruited despite being so shy and emotionally weak.

@Gnar The Missing Link That does bring up a question. Besides the Speacial ability, is there anything important about having good synchro, and anything negative about bad synchro. And how does synchro gets risen or lowered?

@GreenGoat Is Utano somewhat well known? By that I mean, would Ian be able to recognize her from her stage persona?

@Raijinslayer

Right now, I'll explain what the margins mean:

The higher one's synchro rate the more in tune one feels with their Framewerk- the more it feels like it's an extension of one's body rather than just a hunk of metal covering you and protecting you as a tool. You will feel as if you and the Framewerk are 'one and the same' rather than you controlling something.

From 80-89% you would feel that the Framewerk is like your own body and that you can perform things you couldn't before.

90-94% and onward is when you can hear noises from the experimental Framewerk... almost like you are no longer alone on the battlefield. How you handle this is dependent on your characters.

95%+ you unlock the special ability of your Framewerk; it's true power.

65-79% is roughly, give or take, the average synch ratio of most Pilots who have piloted a Framework after many years- those who fall into this ranking are usually those who have survived a few fights against the Cruxi. To start here it does not at all mean you are lacking, but it means are you in fact stronger than the average soldier by a long mile. Being pilots who aged 14-16 and are able to pull off this synch ratio is a gift. You are able to pull off well-thought out maneuvers and move in ways that would take soldiers years to pull off.

40-64% is where the Framewerk will start to feel clunky and begin to feel more and more like a burden and a tool as you reach the 40% tile. You will have to pilot your Framewerk more by 'force' rather than as an extension of your body than anything else.

1-40% or the danger zone. At most times this is where your Framewerk will begin to go into a 'lag' state of mind, or will halt it's orders and proceed to do things of its own. Usually this is because the Pilot is in a ill-state of mind or unconscious, but there are unknown reasons that have been yet to discovered for this odd behavior in the experimental Frameworks. Nonetheless, it is highly advised that the pilot is evacuated immediately... before the next state is activated.

-1~100% is the negative synchro rate, something that rarely happens, but can happen. As a pilot's state of mind deteriorates on the battlefield, the experimental Framewerks will respond to this as a result in order to protect their pilot and enter a state of mind called "CULLING". The Framewerk will enter a Berserk-like state and proceed to destroy and eliminate everything that it deems an immediate threat to the pilot's sanity and safety in order to keep them safe, even if it means killing allies or foes alike. What does mean is the Framewerk itself will take control and proceed to rampage on the battlefield.

____________________________________________________

Everyone's synchro rates upon starting a mission start at what is given in my previous post, so you may want to keep that in your character sheets somewhere, but they may or may not decrease depending on their state of mind during the battle or what is happening... or if something has happened to them beforehand.

After each mission, depending on how well the mission went, I'll tell everyone how well their Synchro rate improved depending on how their 'mental' state has improved based based upon a d6, although, I may or may not add or subtract modifiers if things went extremely well or extremely poorly to give it a more 'Evangelion' and 'Mass Effect' feel.

Remember, we are at war here against a very powerful race that has us pushed into a corner... so things may or may not go as planned, and how you all handle that in situations like that will effect your characters mental strain.

This is, after all, a RP that can quickly switch be a calm to be horrific on the fly. So how your characters handle that will be tricky.

ALL OF THE PANICS

EDIT: Inb4 Elora starts out over 90%, but due to panic and mental weakness drops down into low % by the end of the RP. Also, could we have that information in a folder in the OP?

Relatively. Not a big name performer like Michael Jackson just yet, but still well known, kinda like They Might Be Giants. It helps that she's wearing her signature dress.

It's up to you, but for now none of the noises are clear, they are just muffled off.

Maybe upon achieving 100% will the noises be cleared, but even then there aren't any guarantees.

Sure thing!

@Gnar The Missing LinkI was going tl have Ian nave a history of taking his Framewerk for Joy rides, can I also have that translate into him starting with a low rate, but then pushing it up rapidly through pure effort.

I can easily see Sigma as one of the clones which wasn't culled due to having a synch in operable range.

They are a thing! And speaking of them...

Utano – Synchro Rate : 72%
Serah – Synchro Rate : 73%
Sigma – Synchro Rate : 78%
Elora – Synchro Rate : 91%
Takeo Synchro Rate : 84%
Antwon Synchro Rate : 78%
Ian – Synchro Rate : 69%
Zan – Syncrho Rate : 99%
Korie – Synchro Rate : 90%

Here they are! I used a D33, rolled three times, and added them all up to determine everyone's synch rate with their Framewerk. Currently, Zan is the strongest getting an almost perfect score and has unlocked the ability to use their Framework's Special Ability by passing the 95% margin.

These ratios will increase over time until everyone has reached 100% with their Frameworks and has unlocked their special abilities, so don't worry.


Nice, this is going to be fun.

inb4 highest syncro gets beaten because they get overconfident


Ah I don't know Zan is not really the type to get overconfident.

Oh wow, that was unexpected. Pretty amusing that the two Framewerks with weak/no weapons have the highest synchros.

EDIT: Inb4 Eva Berserk Mode for Zan's Special Ability.

EDIT2: Elora celebrates with DATABASE


I don't know maybe.

The simplest of them all has the current perfect ratio. Now that's what I call Irony.


I wouldn't call it the simplest, but everyone has their own opinions.

Wow, all those rates seem to make like perfect sense for (almost) each of the characters. It would definitely be Zan who has the perfect ratio. Also good to hear that they'd all rise over time, so nobody gets left in the dust.


I agree.

Yes, Korie has their own bathroom.

DEAL WITH IT.

And yes, they were just teasing about being/revealing to be a boy.

@Gnar The Missing LinkThis gives me ideas for Ian to joke with, so many ideas.

On another note, You never answered my question about Ian and him taking Anubis 14 on Joy Rides as extra training to boist his Synchro rate.

Oh! Sorry!

Hm... I don't know if 'joy rides' would work.

Although there are a number of things that can boost or lower Synchro rates, I wont spoil them just yet. For now, the only obvious ones will be missions and interactions with others, along with one's mentality. There are other things, but they will be revealed as the RP goes on.

Edit: Yay, Dead Cruiser isn't... well, dead~!

Also, Iskander's Synchro Rate is 71%, so you might want to write it down on their CS somewhere. It's up on the OOC OP too in case you need to look there.

@Gnar The Missing Link So, what's the ETA on the mock battle, or are we waiting for the strawberry alliance to form up, cause I'm cool with allowing them to chatter for a bit, want to see what Sigma's planning.

Also, does anyone have any ideas about who there characters will vote for to become squad leader. Ian's most likely going for Sigma still.
