[OOC] Destiny: The Exclusion Zone

[WardenCelestine]

I know what I am about to buy.

[Apollosarcher]

@Andromedai Yeah it's gonna be awesome. I watched the livestream they did for one of the new strikes.

[JessieTargaryen]

Name: Jason Diabolus

Sex: Male

Race: Human

Main Class: Warlock

Subclass: Voidwalker

Weapons: Fatebringer (365'd of course), Red Death (Also 365'd despite me being unsure of if this is even possible), and Truth (365'd)

Armor: (Gained during an extensive journey into the vault where he went off the beaten path to explore. Has no particularly special properties other than it looks cool as fuck and helps Jason regain super energy faster. Also cause I was told I an avoid using the robes. Warlock robes aren't very cool looking)

Appearance:

Ghost Name: Stryker

Personality: Jason is loyal, and a born fighter. Despite his identification with the Warlocks, he is regarded as a bit of an outcast by the order due to the fact that while he is intelligent and studies like them; he also is a big risktaker and can be reckless at times. He is kind towards his teammates; but harbors an extreme hatred towards his enemies. Particularly the Cabal and Fallen. The Fallen for cutting his right arm off (he has a prosthetic arm), and the cabal for the death of his sister at their hands. He will protect his allies no matter what, and is more than happy to take a risk to save lives.

He also likes explosions.

[Sylverblu]

How would a Fallen character go? Something similar to Variks in terms of backstory?

[WardenCelestine]

@Jasonhero A couple things, what do you mean by (365'd) and the armor needs to be from Destiny.

@Sylverblu Send me a PM and we can work something out, alright?

[Light]

@Andromedai365 is the current attack stat cap.

Also will finish the History section tonight, and if you're going to post all the characters on the CHAR tab you should also notate which player the character is for.

[WardenCelestine]

Thank you @Light I am working on that.

@Jasonhero 365 is fine, I would expect all of our characters to currently have that. Please keep in mind and be weary of the fact that I do not want to see OP Guardians running around because of the 365, ok? If we are just mowing them down with little effort that takes all the fun out of the RP, don't you all think?

[Light]

I hardly doubt we will be trying to apply mechanics to this. We should be able to take out mobs and ads of enemies pretty easily, especially as a team. The bosses should take a while and even as a GM, @Andromedai should add his/her (sorry) own flare and give the enemies some character development. The numbers of stats shouldn't matter.

[Light]

Also it seems Voidwalker is pretty popular here so I'm gunna switch over to Stormcaller. Let's get some variety in here.

[ShiningSector]

Looking for more people? If so I would definitely like to be apart of this if possible.

Also, no one is creating a Titan character and this saddens me; Titans need love and this must be corrected.

[WardenCelestine]

Of course stats do not matter, I just want to make sure that Jasonhero knows that, only because of the 365 comments. (Context is everything.)

I have everything under control and know what I am doing here, don't worry. As I said before, if the ads or mobs die to quickly we will move through the RP at a fast pace, battles in the game last a little bit and I want to RP that out in the story.

@ShiningSector You are more than welcome to join.

@Light Edit has been made.

@Andromedai
Text color change please?

[Lemons]

Name: Aiden-12

Sex: Male

Race: Exo

Main Class: Titan

Subclass: (Pick one) Sunbreaker

Weapons: (pick up to three)

Primary Weapon: Doctor Nope

Secondary Weapon: Vestian Dynasty

Heavy Weapon: Thunderlord

Armor: (Optional)

Helmet: Commando Type 0

Chestplate: The Armamentarium

Gauntlets: Commando Type 0

Boots: Commando Type 0

Mark: Mark of the Deep Stone Crypt

Appearance: (Picture is fine) When inside of his armour, Aiden-12 is essentially a wall of metal, inscrutable. Outside of his armour he's actually much the same, being the exo that he is. His "skin" is a deep, metallic burgundy, detailed with lines of white. His ocular sensors glow with a pale blue light. He has a tall, burly frame, clearly built for close, front-lines combat. He's very strong, as could be expected, and the pistons and servos present in his arms and legs are extremely durable and powerful. On each side of his head, a sort of antenna-esque structure is present, allowing for greater auditory receptivity. He has large, powerful hands and feet, and quite often, he crushes delicate things with his hands, completely by accident.

Ghost Name: It's a Ghost. It doesn't have a name. Aiden-12, in accordance with this fact, simply referring to him as "Ghost", or "my Ghost".

Personality: Contrary with his somewhat-imposing outwards appearance, Aiden-12 is actually a fairly amiable and jocular person. However, he can be rather stubborn at times when he needs to be. When he's off duty, he can often be found simply lounging around the tower having a good time. He does, however, have one major pitfall in his personality: he has a compulsive adoration of anything that goes boom. This is essentially the main reason he wears the Armamentarium: incendiary grenades for DAYS. He takes advantage of his, as he has dubbed it, "bomb-hammer" as much as possible. Occasionally, Guardians that he's worked with in the field have reported somewhat manic laughter upon hearing him activate his super.

History: As an exo, Aiden-12 was obviously built for war. Given his name, his memory has been reset several over the course of his life. His current set of data began just before the Collapse, only perhaps fifty or so minutes before his death. All that he remember from that time are building drenched in fire and oil, collapsing before his eyes as everybody that he'd ever known crumbled away completely. Looking up, one of these enormous Golden-Age structures fell on top of him. Then he was being woken up by his Ghost. In particular, he was working as a guard for the Ishtar Collective on Venus during the Collapse. A simple jumpship presented itself to him and his Ghost, something that the Collective had been working on and had been locked away for a very long time. It was half-finished and experimental. really, it was nearly broken, but he was being hunted. He somehow managed to get it into space and pilot it to the Cosmodrome, where it crashed in foot-deep water in the Forgotten Shore.

It was by sheer luck that a party of Guardians came upon him there, lying in the ruins of a jumpship that was crushed like a crumpled soda can. They managed to keep him safe from any Fallen incursions until he awoke. His right arm was essentially unusable and had to be painstakingly reconstructed over a great deal of time. Finally, he was called out into the field, having been reforged and prepared for battle in the Light of the Traveler. That puts him where he is now.

Here is what I got thus far...

Hider

Name: Simon Ivanov

Sex: Male

Race: Human

Main Class: Titan

Subclass: Defender

Weapons:

• Primary: Up For Anything/Auto Rifle
• Special: Invective/Shotgun
• Heavy: BTRD-345/Machine Gun

Armor:

• Helmet: Helm of Saint-14
• Chest Armor: Holdfast Type 2
• Leg Armor: Iron Breed Greaves
• Titan Mark: Season of Ages XII

Appearance: Appearing in his 30's. Short white hair possibly from a side effect from being reanimated by Cipher. Purplish eyes and several minor cuts over his face, including a large scar crossing over the bridge of his nose and face. Rough shaved.

Ghost Name: Cipher

Personality and History: Simon first awoke after centuries of death induced sleep in the husk of a destroyed transport vessel, littered of debris and dust-prone skeletons. The reanimation process Cipher, his soon-to-be Ghost, had performed on his decrepit skeletal remains which had then infused both Light and flesh back into his former being at first left him startled and confused; even maddening upon the discovery of his resurrection in this strange new world. An honest reaction any dead man would have after being brought back to life. Eventually, Cipher calmed the still shivering Simon down and helped guide the new Guardian out of the Russian Cosmodrome. Though that would have been easy to say in words if it weren't for the cutthroat Fallen that scavenged the decaying region for anything worthy to utilize in whatever schemes they plotted.

It didn't take the aliens long to notice a wielder of the Traveler's light in their midst, and a weak one no less and soon set after Simon, ever so wanting to relinquish the Guardian of his new found Light. Quickly making use of an old and overlooked Khvostov 7G-02, Simon engaged the Fallen scavengers with a sense of familiar aggression. Simon fought his way through packs of Fallen pirates before securing a ship out of the Fallen-claimed Cosmodrome and soon his future as a full-fledged Guardian.

Despite his surfacing tendencies of aggression and competitiveness, Simon found himself favoring the Defender archetype of his Titan classification which has caused heads to tilt when comparing him with such a support driven role. No doubt to his personality, Simon summons his almost impenetrable Wards of Dawn not only to protect his allies but also to transform himself into a wall against which the Darkness breaks and thus making him near unstoppable. His illustrative use of the classic saying "The best defense is a good offence" as earned him recognizable credit not only within the Vanguard but in the Crucible as well.

With years of accumulated service to the City and the official factions at the Tower as well as identifiable traits of a true Defender, Simon is occasionally either positioned to assist with the training of new Guardians or deployed into tasked Strike or Raid teams when the need comes to light.

[WardenCelestine]

@Lemons Send me a PM, we have lots to talk about.

@ShiningSector Looking good so far.

As of this point, everyone who is currently working to have their CS approved or said that they are going to make one will be approved. If you are new and just arrived to this page AFTER this message has been posted, I am going to have to turn you down until another spot opens up so you can still go ahead and let me know that you are interested. Currently I have a spot reserved for @Skyrte and @Nallore.

[Nallore]

I'll have a character up tomorrow.

[ShiningSector]

@Andromedai

Post has been updated. Please let me know if anything needs to changed.

[WardenCelestine]

@ShiningSector Your approved, please post it in the character section.

[WardenCelestine]

@Lemons You are approved, please post your CS in the character area.

[Brasslazer]

Here's my character, hope it can still be accepted.

Kala

Name: Kala Jenas

Sex: Female

Race: Awoken

Main Class: Warlock

Subclass: Sunsinger

Weapons: SUROS Regime, Necrochasm, and Super Good Advice.

Armor:
Helmet: Deathsinger's Gaze
Chest: Heart of the Praxic Fire
Gauntlets: Viper Spine II
Legs: Istanu-GNT Razor
Bond: Bond of the Queen's Guard

Appearance

Ghost Name: Velox

Personality: Kala is serious, straightforward, and direct. She accepts that she is just a pawn in the war against the Darkness, and strives to be the most valued and honored of these pawns. While intelligent, she isn't much of a strategist, following those who order her. She drowns herself in her work, training either alone or with her fireteam in her free time. In conversation, she is blunt and honest, believing in truth over emotions. If she doesn't tell the truth all the time, how can her teammates trust her on the battlefield?

History: While an Awoken, Kala is similar to the Exo, in that she was built for war. Born on Earth, she trained heavily, becoming a skilled soldier. She learned that a person's own skill is usually not enough, and you must be humble and trusting enough to rely on their fireteam, as well as strong enough to be relied on, if you want to be successful. To her, the fireteam is a system that fights for honor, objective, and survival, and that system is above all. In her travels around the galaxy for the duties as a Guardian, she eventually ended up in the Reef, where she hoped to be accepted as a fellow Awoken. Faced with prejudice for her Earth heritage, she now is driven by her hopes to earn the respect she believes she deserves from the Queen and others of her race.
