[OOC] The Multiverse: Arena

[ImportantNobody]

<Snipped quote by ImportantNobody>

Ironically, I've been fleshing Jacer out for three days and his CS, only 2/3 done, is 3 pages long in gdocs!! >,< I might be going a little too much detail with him but I'm enjoying it. ^-^

@Fallenreaper

I like detailed sheets as long as it's not a bunch of boring backstory or something.

[Descartes]

I could never feel super attached to my own characters. I'd like to think I used to, and I still create characters that pay homage to older characters, but I guess it was something I grew out of; if that makes sense. Also, totally making a new dude for this. Maybe dudette. Depends on my mood.

I'm actually, really, tempted to let Jacer tell the bio himself through 1st narrative. It feels like it would be fun and interesting to read his inner monologue as well his emotions, from bitterment to joy, even regret over the Undyne siezure of his planet. :P Who says all conflicts have to be directly tied to the current plot at first.

@Descartes

I tend to get attach, strictly because I enjoy playing another. Each Pc tends to take their own reins at some point and ulitmately becomes something interesting to read and show off as I learn more about them. Ever so often, I get a feeling that some key action is needed and despite how much I feel it's out of character, in the end it feels right for them when it's all done. Though I'm rather over hyped about the fact in this he could 'die' in a sense. Poor Dom's going to have heart attack in his Enslaved heart. Some of these terms will be explained in the bio as I have Jacer's own little world in their own crisis at the time Jacer gets sucked into the multiverse. XD

I know @Melonhead asked for an example of what @GreivousKhan wanted, did we get it or did I miss it scrolling through the thread?

@Skallagrim

He has not posted an example but does have a CS requirement, I'm just winging it with Jacer for now. I can show the current WIP if you're curious but I don't know how well I did to be honest. In addition, do we post the CS here first than get approval or make any requested changes first? Also what is the ruling on NPCs being key story elements to a PC? I'm aiming on making Dom and Giz CSes but not sure how fleshed out they should be. Namely as Jacer will avoid them getting into a fight as often as possible.

One last thing I have to say: why in the hell is there a Personality Section?!?! I hate those with a passion as my PC never, never comes out that way when I start to play them!

I added it to the Archives (IC) OP.

I hate this damn iPhone.. First it won't let me type kick Khan's ass, now it won't let me finish anything. *grumbles*

@Fallenreaper

Obviously the phone wants you to avoid telling lies. ^^

[MelonHead]

So in that case the story arc was named Gorilla and the Skulltor or w/e, you don't have to have your opponent name in the title? As you might fight many opponents in one arc.

No you don't need the name.

@GreivousKhan

How flexible is the design format for that? I mean, I like to keep mind orderly in a way I can understand and skim through it.

[ImportantNobody]

I'm still considering my character so may be ready to post his sheet by next week. Want to make him really good if he's my main one. Have some interesting weaknesses as well. Hmm...anyone want to spout ideas out that I can steal from you to jumpstart my creativity?

@ImportantNobody

Try this...I literally based Jacer off of Green Lantern in a way. Also, what level are you looking or aiming for, that might help in determining what type of PC you can create. Some abilities are much are harder to limit than others to maintain a key level so I've learned in my case. >_>

[ImportantNobody]

Maybe my character could be kind of Jacer's friendly rival. I was sort of thinking he had magical, elemental orbs in his body that could bring out powers and he has a life element orb in place of his heart.

@ImportantNobody

Is he actually from Jacer's home world?

Namely as it's in it's little, mini war itself as Jacer's bio will explain. Though there's a 3 way Infinity war going on, Jacer's world isn't acknowledged as part of it because they are being invaded by the Undyne and most humans in his world have been turned into Enslaved. I aim on the Undyne possibly being connected to one of the current Powers within the actual bigger war though for the multiverse, Jacer, his kid brother Dom and their pet Gizzi will be trying to get back to their own home world. The current rp entrance I'm wanting is actually a possible way to pull all the PCs, due to the fact the trio discover a artifact on Ebium which ends up transporting them to the bazaar that was set up. The artifact cracks, destroyed along with any chance they have to get back home instantly. So now they have to get home without being dragged into the current war going on or being killed. Which allows for a lot of conflict possibilities and interaction reasons. :p

If not, we could at least tie Jacer to him after all three of them arrive. Aiming on that attracting a lot of attention and be a rather comic relief while the little crew collects themselves.

[ImportantNobody]

Maybe his planet becomes interfered with in that war that will spur him into going out into the multiverse and he thinks your group somehow has all the answers.

@ImportantNobody

There's actually many possibilities that could play out to get him to align to cause conflict. His brother Dom, for example, is a key one. The kid's only in his early teens and becoming what his people nicked as an 'Enslaved' which is a human being processed into a cybernetic slave. They lose who they are then end up attacking their loved once or becoming a work force, but this ends up happening gradually over time. Right now, Dom was infected over a month ago and already his arm is nothing but robotic as his cells are converting to metal. He also bleeds mercury. The sad part about 'Ensalve', there's only condition Jacer would have to meet so he could keep his brother with the rest of the survivor, or anyone could really. That condition is when the brain is actually affected than Jacer actually has to murder his own brother.

So anything in regards to helping, threatening, killing or aiding them, or namely his brother, are incentives to get them on one side or another. As I've said before, I tend to intertwine story and fighting together best as I can like a novel.

[LeeRoy]

@Fallenreaper You know, I've noticed you write a LOT. No complaints, not insulting or anything, but you're tremendously wordy.

@LeeRoy

Yeah, I get that a lot. It gets worse the more excited I am so you can tell when I'm really getting into a fight or discussion by how much I write sadly. >,<

[Rilla]

It's how to tell she likes you.

[ImportantNobody]

Maybe if my guy has magical gem whatevers in his heart he's immune to that robotic disease.

@ImportantNobody

That ends up into the area of helping/aiding his brother, though if Jacer attempts to swipeafter learning about it is a whole matter. Personally any 'cure' I don't want permanent as others, from Jacer's world, will be looking for that cure and being able to tie Jacer into the Infinity War alliance would be hard. Namely cause potential conflicts, backstabbing, and more is lost because of that when it comes to story.

Now I just need to get his CS done. I've already got most his attributes down working on the actual construct system. Including limited barriers, item construction, and spell effects. Then Learned skills section, other equipment and back story finally. >,< Ironically, I'm aiming for a low-mid level Powered PC really. I just I get it right. Oh.. and my favorite, personality. -_-
