[OOC] Space Adventures

[olcharlieboi]

Having recently watched the newest live-action trailer for Destiny's expansion it got me wanting to do a sci-fi rp that is crazy and amazing kind of like how their live-action trailers are. Which if you would like to watch them you can check youtube sense they are all available on there to be seen.

our characters are a group of friends, On a planet called Kalda, who banded together to buy a ship, they then use this ship to travel the galaxy doing odd-jobs and other missions asked of them in order to make money (mainly), throughout the rp they'll fight all kinds of creatures humanoid and not, Alive and not. They'll seek to upgrade their ship, upgrade equipment, all that.

They'll start out with some nice equipment but nothing that can get them to go to far in what they want, and they'll go about... being able to better themselves as they roleplay goes on.

They'll run into all kinds of worlds on their travels

I'm also allowing small bit of fantasy Power/Abilities into the roleplay for characters if you wish for them to have something of the such, you'll have to make a story in order to convince me how they was able to gain such power, I say this because some things is in the genetics of a specific race to allow them to do certain things (Camouflage invisible, produce electricity, etc....), while other things could of happened in an experiment or incident with ancient technology of another age, etc... as long as I can believe it and it could fit into the world.

Note: If you try to go Cannon races of other types of things like t.v. series, book series, and so on, don't expect them to be able to do the exact same things. Example: If your a Saiyan from Dragon Ball Z you can't still shoot energy blasts, go super saiyan and all that crazy stuff... Maybe still turn into a giant monkey thanks to the moon (that is a genetic Trait thanks to their tail).

"You gonna finish that?"
Name: Rakans'mei Jakarta (Has learned to just go by "Rocky")
Age: 29 earth years
Gender: Male
Race: Skalen- A race of sapient predatory reptilian/humanoid creatures that have evolved on a densely forested heavy gravity world were there are no mammalian species.
Appearance:

Rocky

- Rocky stands at approximately eight feet tall in height, four and a half feet across at the shoulder, and weighs roughly five hundred and fifty two pounds. He wears a size XXL pair of grey cargo pants and an equally large sleeveless black hoodie.

Ability/Power: As with all Skalens Rocky boasts superhuman levels of strength, and his capable of lifting well over twice his own body weight with some effort.
How they got their Ability/power: Simply put; Evolution. The heavy gravity of his planet coupled with higher oxygen levels than that of earth and a predatory lifestyle has molded Rocky into a strong and durable creature who is a force to be reckoned with in a fight.
Skills: Rocky is an excellent tracker and hunter, using his natural senses and training to hunt down man and beast alike. He's also very well suited to carry heavy cargo and can act as an intimidation tool for the crew as needed.
Equipment: A cleaver, a Sargon b2, and an inhaler

History: There's nothing particularly interesting about Rocky's life. Prior to his people's discovery by humans, he would have simply been placed into either a warrior or hunter caste depending on where his skills shined brightest. However with the colonization of their planet having taken place several decades before his birth, the Skalen had begun taking on other roles to better fit with a rapidly expanding social and economical change. Some Skalen still clung to their traditions unbudgingly, but a other had learned to integrate themselves with a society that offered things like medicine and new and exciting technology. Rocky was best described as a middle point between the two groups of Skalen; taking advantage of things like the human education system while still learning the ways of the hunt from his elders. He eventually got a job as a safari guide for humans eager to hunt the local fauna until amassing enough money to leave his planet in search of new worlds to learn about and hunt on. He would eventually make his way over to Kalda where he would meet a group of people that left a good enough impression on him to convince him to travel with them as a mercenary.

Personality: Despite his primal and vicious appearance, Rocky is actually a rather laid back -if not crude- individual when not engaged in combat. He tries to refrain from giving into his more basic urges, though he has a bit of an issue controlling himself around vast amounts of food, usually resulting in him stuffing himself with as much meat as possible in a single sitting. Rocky is rather fond of the other members of the crew, though his brand of affection is definitely more in line with the tough love mentality, with plenty of shoving and shoulder punching (as much as he can manage without actually hurting someone). The only time one ever has to be careful around Rocky is when there's a fight to be had, as he loses his inhibitions rather quickly and may try to take a snap at someone in the heat of the moment.
Other: Being that he's from a planet with heavy gravity but high oxygen levels, Rocky can move startlingly fast for his size, but can become short of breath very quickly on other planets and as a result, cannot participate in drawn out activities or battles without his inhaler.

@MonsieurShade

wow you went all out with that character I see, things I will ask though, you say his homeworld has heavy gravity, how much more than earth gravity is it? I can allow a character that has inhuman strength and speed like he would sense going to a planet with lower gravity would make them like that compared to a heavy gravity planet, but I need to know just how much estimate it is. if it's strong enough to lift an entire space shuttle without any trouble what so ever, then might be a bit to much.

A cleaver, simplistic fits for starting equipment
Sargon b2, a gun you took straight out of Destiny, interesting.. from what I've read it's a basic heavy machine gun, will think a bit about that one, after all the characters don't have a ton of money..

[MonsieurShade]

@olcharlieboi Well admittedly gravity isn't my strongest subject when it comes to sciences, I was just trying to give a reason for my character wielding the strength he has. However given the fact that his planet is habitable enough for human colonization we know that it's definitely less than three times earth's gravity. A bit of googling led me to an article that stated that a human was able to handle twenty four straight hours in 2x earth's gravity without ill effects, so I think i'll settle on Rocky's planet have a gravity that is 1x greater, and that the main bulk of his strength comes from both that and the fact that his planet has higher oxygen levels, thereby allowing larger sized creatures and greater muscle mass. It would definitely help tie in with the fact that he needs an inhaler to avoid passing out when on other planets since his body consumes more oxygen. Tracking back to the strength thing, Skalens would be able to lift twice their body weight with effort as mentioned in my CS, so let's say that with his weight at 552lbs, he could lift roughly 1104lbs if he was well grounded and put some real muscle into it. I'd like to cap his strength at about 1100lbs if that would be fine with you.

[olcharlieboi]

@MonsieurShade
Thank you for that, giving me a somewhat estimate like that helped more, a space shuttle from it's dense metal would probably be 5x if not more that highest weight so that's alright, and most people will be wearing specialized suits which would make it so he can't just 1 shot them with a punch if he got that close.

I don't really see anything else wrong with him, so he can be moved into the Character section for easier access, if any changes are made to him please inform me of them, otherwise his accepted now.

I'll have my own character sometime soon up, I'm not to sure which style to go with sense I have many little made races for sci-fi rps.

[Shikaru]

Subbing to this, going to think of a CS. I have no idea what anything in Destiny is as I have no wifi capable of playing it but...yea.

[Shikaru]

Name: X57-69B, Goes by X for..obvious reasons.

Age: Doesn't age, though he would be 30 in human years.

Gender: Male

Race: Cybernetica- Built and manufactured on a planet known as LV-67X. A world colonized by human scientists making experiments that could be...more than disatrous if un-leashed accidentally on a prime world.

Cyberneticas are entirely and 100% machine, however, each are equipped with a highly intelligent well..Artificial Intelligence capable of human emotions yet far superior in intelligence. Cyberneticas are about three times as strong as a normal human, able to lift 800 pounds easily and run up to 10 MPH.

Given their mechanical nature, they are completly resistant to EMPs and that of the like. Their exo-skeleton is highly re-inforced, able to shrug off lesser blows like being poked with a toothpick, though it is still very possible to damage them.

Appearance: X stands at 6 ft even, his body is more of a muscular build by human standards in order to be more imposing. Half of his face is that of a human with a red circular eye, the rest of his body is mostly covered in biotic skin so as to blend in with humans more, though it isn't pivitol and he doesn't bleed.

He has silver, spikey hair that is roughly shoulder length.

Ability/Power:

As described above, X is three times as strong as the average human able to lift 800 pounds and run up to 10 MPH, though the faster he runs and the morr weight he lifts the more energy he drains. Which leads to the next portion.

Energy: He has an internal self-recharging fuel cell that allows him to utilize his powers and keeps him alive, his heart persay. It is also the most protected part in his body.

Electric Hands: His palms have the ability to function has very short range tazers or defibrillators.

Incorporate: X has the ability to incorporate weapons into his body and, over-time, re-design them to function inside himself deploying them at will.

How they got Ability/Power: All Cyberneticas have it upon creation.

Skills:

An expert tactician and engineer, able to repair much if any machinery and devise a strategy or plan that would take a room full of the smartest generals months to think out.

Proficient in melee and ranged fighting alike.

Equipment: SORD- A re-purposed saber, deployable at will, replaces his hand and part of his arm with said saber.

Bolter: A high calibre pistol deployable at will capable of a moderate fire rate with low recoil, deploys at the wrist for easy grip. Loads with a small magazine on the bottom.

A belt of ammo for the Bolter.

History:

X was created roughly thirty years ago as one of the latest models of the Cybernetica line. He was taught roughly ten years on how to behave as a human and programmed and re-programmed extensively.

Twenty years after his make date he was transported to Earth as a test run, to integrate with society, get a job, and etcetra. A few years later he got a job as an Engineer, building weapons, shuttles, and repairing them. A master in his craft he made a decent amount of money, despite not needing it.

Age thirty by human standards, he was still quite content with his work until he saw a recruitment poster for a mercenary group in Kalda. Curious at the thought of it he took his money, bought a few weapons and a ticket to Kalda.

Personality: Easy-going and very friendly. Generally a nice man to get to know and talk to.

Other: He has a deep voice. *shrug*

[olcharlieboi]

@Shikaru
Well I was just using the Destiny Live Trailers as an example of how I wanted to do an awesome Sci-Fi rp lol.

and I have to ask how did you come up with this character? he is somewhat like my character that I had posted last night expect minus all the organic bits, and different powers.

[Shikaru]

@olcharlieboi Honestly didn't read anyone but the reptillian guys CS. He is based loosely off of Cyberneticas, a machine worshipping race from Warhammer 40k. They incoporate machinery into their bodies.

[olcharlieboi]

@Shikaru
lol hm.. yet another little race in warhammer that I don't know of, I only know of the main center piece races I guess, the ones that are usually involved with the games. our characters are basically both engineers though yours is also a strategist, and mine technically from his race is also a scientist but his not going to focus on that.

If their a machine worshipping race that incorporate machinery into their bodies then they would probably revere the cybertronians for they are the perfect combine form of Organic and Machine, hm.... what to do what to do lol.

[Shikaru]

@olcharlieboi Yeah they're in there with tech-priests and such.

[olcharlieboi]

Within just a little while this got pushed back lol, we still need a few more people before we can really start. can't really start with this group of characters really. 2 characters who share similarities in their skills, and 1 character who is very good phyiscal person and everything lol.

[Shikaru]

@olcharlieboi Ayy. So X is accepted then?

[olcharlieboi]

just because it's similar to mine I can't simply deny it. and ATM I don't see anything wrong with him really, so until I see anything happen that I didn't expect, and is breaking in regards to the goal I have, his accepted.

Wish some more would join.. with more verity, my starting goal was at lest 4-5 people, with different characters that fit different roles, before this roleplay starts.

[eemmtt]

I am interested in this will get up a CS tomorrow.

[olcharlieboi]

@eemmtt Alright, glad to hear that, will be looking forward to seeing that CS.

[olcharlieboi]

Bumping this up for the moment, if this rp isn't able to reach as i wish within 2-3 days then i will probably call it for this roleplay, and try again with a different style.. i really want a cool Sci-fi RP to do. for Multiple reasons, and i wish to try out my creation, for i have yet to try out my Cybertronians in their current state.

[olcharlieboi]

Bump this up one last time, i still have hope for this roleplay to succeed.

[olcharlieboi]

@Shikaru and @MonsieurShade if both are still interested then will start up IC tomorrow or sooner depending on both parties.

@eemmtt if you are still interested you can still post a CS and join the roleplay.

Also Shikaru please move your character to the character tap especially if your still wanting to do this

[Shikaru]

Done
