[OOC] Character Crossover Crisis City (C4 Reboot)

[Lugubrious]

Um, @Lugubrious, I was going to post. I was trying to figure out what I was going to do.

@VitaVitaAR

Have I done something that hinders your ability to post?

[VitaVitaAR]

Well, you've replied like Kyouko didn't say anything. ^^;

[Lugubrious]

Well, you've replied like Kyouko didn't say anything. ^^;

@VitaVitaAR

Yes, because she didn't. She still can, though, so I don't see there being any big problem created. Do you want me to remove that line for you or something?

[VitaVitaAR]

I... guess remove that line and I'll post fairly soon.

[Trevor1001]

I'm sorry for not posting as often as I should but work keeps throwing 10+ hour days at me. I'll try to get a post up before I go to work in the morning.

@Trevor1001

Earlier today, I finally gave your avatar close attention.

Is there some way we can burn it IC? Parasyte is a horrifying idea. D:

[Grey Star]

@Invisible ManHere's what to expect from Chris, man.

@Trevor1001 No need to apologize. As always, real life will always come first so don't be feel guilty if you haven't posted all that much. As long as you pop in the OOC every now and then to say you're still interested, I'm okay with that.

[Raineh Daze]

There's also this rather more spoilery video. XD

[Lmpkio]

Sorry guys. My interest has kinda depleted here and wasn't sure on what's going on. Will have to bust outta here for the time being. But fret not. I may be back in the future. Just... Not now that is. So don't wait for me guys. Keep on going.

Hm...@Luciansmentor, DIO's eyes are orange, his fangs would only be visible when talking (and not 'under his lip'), and how do voice and posture give away a vampire? As far as vampires go, Jojo's ones are pretty unconventional. Either way, it doesn't matter; the rest of your post made it clear that your character's pretty much omniscient, although I suppose I should have expected it from what's basically a god. You might want to add that to his abilities--that, and he can communicate silently and instantly with every soul he absorbs as power.

Just a note, I'm sure you meant 'spell' in the figurative sense, but just in case, DIO's persuasiveness and attractiveness aren't a magic spell. He's just that charismatic, not that that would make any kind of a case against a god-tier character.

I can hold one thing against you, though, which is that DIO has not created a zombie plague. Any spawn he creates are completely under his control, and he has confined them strictly to the Hotel California. His zombies cannot create zombies themselves; there's been no infection.

@Gamegurugg, @Invisible Man want to collab a response?

[VitaVitaAR]

I... kind of have to take issue with that as well. I admit my attention hasn't been fully on Roanapur, but that part seemed like it was neither hinted in the bio and also seems to be metagame-heavy.

@Lugubrious

I am... leery about another collab given what happened last time. I'd prefer approval of the GMs first.

[Invisible Man]

Overlord only gets mentioned once inside that huge post, sulk.

I also have some reservations about Forneus, and agree with both VitaVitaAR and Lugubrious points. I mean, Forneus has some pretty strong powers! He could most likely just decimate all of Roanapur in only a few seconds, and most likely deck the floor with anyone that would try to get in his way. I'm mainly just looking at the PvP aspect of your character, but I don't want to just restate everything that the two have already posted.

I wouldn't mind collaborating a response, dialogue flows much better when it is done all at once rather than chopped responses being dished out slowly.

[Lugubrious]

Yeah, the collab would be only a response that would articulate our three characters' reply to Forneus's inhospitability, no real action necessary.

[VitaVitaAR]

I don't honestly see the need for it in this case. They're all responding independently, I assume, and that's if GM action doesn't force some edits to metagame content.

[Flamelord]

@Invisible Man

Hey, at least you got mentioned. i'm pretty sure that of the active Roanpur people, only DIO knows that Garie actually exists :p

[Grey Star]

I'm okay with a collab post myself so long as it's not too padded out, the players are in character, and it doesn't exclude people from interacting with a GM post by having too much time go by. And also once in a while since other people would feel left out if it's constant and I think it's easier on the flow of narrative if people didn't constantly have to bounce around perspectives in a single post. Generally I'd prefer it if the scenes were isolated to the two characters in question if it's going on since it'd be awkward to get in on it with anyone else around. My sub-GMs can tell their own opinions on this if I've missed anything.

Also um, yeah. Omniscience is a thing that I'm not okay with. If you want to interact with someone, then just having focusing on one area is better than knowing everything going on at once. Also once again saying that if you haven't put a really significantly powerful skill/ability/item in the character sheet and you use it in the game, that's grounds for me to take out the nerf bat.

@Lugubrious

Ah I see, sorry. I too have read Jojo, I recall in part 1 they said his eyes were red- this was apparent in the fighting game as well. But now that I think about it that's Series One Dio did have red eyes, however Series 3 Dio doesn't. I don't understand Araki's choice in that but eh, screw up on that one. As for the nation of spawns I apologize for that, I thought Dio would have done what he did in series one which was have them take over the town of Windknights, however I need to think again, this is Series 3 Dio, he wouldn't do that. Also he was that charismatic? I thought vampires had that power, they do in RS. Damn, that makes me like Dio even more than I did after Part 6!

Forneus isn't really meant to be a god, sorry for him to come across that away. He is an Abyssal Lord, mind you a powerful one. Of course in RS3 Forneus does slip up the heroes in the game by reading their postures and faces (plus Black, a Pirate who was with you basically blabbed about them while you were in the dungeon kind of tips that off as well.), perhaps I was a bit too explicit with that, my apologies. Forneus is meant more to be a powerful demon who can absorb souls to sort of complete his mission and restore the Death Eclipse. So yeah, my post was pretty out of line, with writing it's a bad habit that I should definitely fix. As for the souls part it is true that every Abyssal Lord can communicate with the souls they absorb, it's a part of the whole Abyss thing in which the souls of the damned constantly scream. As for Forneus he can also sense spirit energy due to the Abyss, the whole area's basically a giant powerplant, large and deadly. Also spell was figurative, Forneus likes to use those words just to patronize someone, if you haven't noticed he's kind of an intellectual dickwad.

But no excuses, the post I did was solely meant for Forneus to basically demonstrate that he doesn't want an alliance with anyone, he is no god, he is a demon lord and I should redo what I wrote post haste. Sorry about that. It happens to me a lot and it's a very passionate area.

@Invisible Man

Forneus' PvP aspect is that he is strong, beatable though. In the Abyss and in the Real World it's all the same. The only way he came back was due to how the Abyss itself works, if he was to die here however that'd be it. He wouldn't come back. Forneus' main weakness is that even though he is smart he tends to jump to conclusions and overthink things so he might actually slip up himself and become flustered if outwitted. He is also nothing without water, sure he can create it but without large bodies of water he's basically the same as any other wizard. And even with the body of water all he gains is the ability to use Maelstrom, that's it. Without the Power of the Abyss in the Death Eclipse he can't even summon minions anymore, much less decimate the entire city of Roanpur.

@Grey Star

Definetley is grounds for that, you're absolutely right. I think I might have to re-edit Forneus' sheet to clarify more things and perhaps nerf some stuff myself, in essence I kind of made myself look like an idiot with that. I kind of got so immeresed in the writing that I didn't notice I was kind of going off more of the Game's logic and not the Rp's logic. So again, my bad on that one. It happens alot and definitely needs to be fixed, sorry for the inconvenience.

[Lugubrious]

Thank you for the clarification! You took the critique like a champ. I'm now looking forward to interaction again.

[Grey Star]

Thank you very much for being a good sport about this, Lucian. In the future if you want clarification for certain things that you want, just give me a PM about stuff and we'll work it out, okay?
