[OOC] Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

[Ariamis]

@Penultimate_Pi
Accepted.

@SillyGoy
We'll be starting soon, so no worries.

[AtomicNut]

Edit: -sings the impatience song-

[Mr Rage]

My response as to whether I keep my much the same or not will depend on this: synch rates change, right? Over time I can increase the level that I start at, and there are things I can do in battle to try and temporarily increase my sync. At least that is how it sounds to me. If that is the case then I'll keep black star the way she is and fumble through it for a while. If not then I'll change it to more of a support roll mech.

[Ariamis]

Synch and experience are both going to change depending on how you act both in battles and outside of them.

[SillyGoy]

ETA for the first IC post?

[Ariamis]

@SillyGoy
I'd say if I can't manage to post it today, then definitely tomorrow.

You really are excited for this, aren't you? I'm just worried such enthusiasm may lead to high expectations and disappointment, which I have seen happen in the past with my older RP's.

[SillyGoy]

@Ariamis

Not excited, so much as getting a bit impatient. Please communicate with us better.

[Ariamis]

@SillyGoy
I'm sorry if I seem unresponsive. I got bogged down with IRL stuff recently, and I also wanted to wait a bit for stragglers.

Name: Roger Rooney
Appearance:
Gender: M
Age: 18
Experience: 31%
Synchronization Rate: 63%
Personality: Roger is very serious basically all the time. Even when he’s happy. He lacks a sense of humor, but he’s not really a stick in the mud. Just that if you make a joke he either won’t get it or not find it funny. At times aggressive and impetuous, but hey, that’s most teenaged boys. Does well under physical and mental pressure, not so much social pressure. Does not know how to talk to women his own age. A bit thoughtless with his words.
Background: Roger is from what you’d call the Space Boonies. His homeworld is a place covered in mountains with little in the way of arable lands, and less in the way of travel between different settlements. To properly live, a complex system of plane transports had to be set up. To be a pilot, you had to be elite, able to keep a level head while navigating through dangerous mountain passes at high speeds. Quick reflexes for reacting to parts of the environment hidden in clouds and a steady hand to avoid overdoing it.

Roger had always wanted to be one of these pilots, it was a dangerous job, but it was an exciting job, and they were the heroes of the planet. Books and tv shows were written about them more than anyone else. Luckily for Roger, he was scouted as a potential candidate rather early on. However, when he turned 17, he dropped out of the training to become a pilot to join the army before he could actually be taught to pilot the planes, which in hindsight probably would give a lot of important experience for dealing with a framewerk.
Notable Deaths: Roger’s Aunt Nancy (dad’s youngest sister) was enlisted as a military medic and treated the wounded and sick for years. 2 years ago, the ship she was stationed on was destroyed in a skirmish with the Cruxi.
Other things: If there is anything else you believe needs sharing, do so here.

Framewerk Code Name: X-1106 C1 “Yeager”
Appearance:
http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm23/Ninja-with-no-name/Mech/kwm1.jpg
Number of Framewerk Systems: 1+1
Signature Weapon System: Yeager’s main systems are not some form of weapon like most Framewerks. It’s primary systems are boosters. These boosters allow Yeager to travel at ludicrous speeds (he’s gone to plaid!), should they be activated. To increase ease of mobility, Yeager has a set of fins all over its body that be adjusted to increase/decrease drag and subtly alter flight paths when the boosters are active.
Secondary Weapon System: Yeager is outfitted with a handheld machinegun with a targeting computer built in to facilitate aiming at high speeds.
Weight Class: Medium. If all the possible weights of Framewerks were mapped out on a 12 point scale with 3 being the heaviest a Light machine could be, 6 being the heaviest a Medium frame can be, 9 being the high end of heavy and 12 being something akin to an aircraft carrier of mechs, this would be about a 6. The bulk required to withstand the stress induced by the Primary Booster gives Yeager a much higher defense than would be anticipated, but with little room for offensive installments.
Special Ability: N/A

@Dragoknighte
Accepted, with the machinegun counting as a kinetic type of weapon. Though I gotta warn you; if Rooney fumbles up when he uses the booster he's gonna crash hard.

[Dragoknighte]

I figured this is a bad idea if my sole goal is to survive unscathed. But I like gambling more than is healthy. And I tend to go all or nothing. This is kind of a gamble character. Go all in even though my hand only has a pair of 4s.

[AtomicNut]

Heh, as long as you don't try to murder someone...

[Apollosarcher]

@Dragoknighte Well you can always stand behind me, the massive super heavy armored shield carrying behemoth. I can set down the shield just make a firing line.

[Mr Rage]

Yeah, I'll stick with it then! If I die in the process, then all the more realistic!

[Ariamis]

@Ammokkx@Apollosarcher@SillyGoy@AtomicNut@Evil Snowman@Penultimate_Pi@Dragoknighte@Mr Rage

It's showtime.

[AtomicNut]

BWAHAHAHAHA CLENCH YOUR BUTTS

I mean... let's do this. Yeah.

[Evil Snowman]

YES!!!!! I've been so looking forward to this.

[Mr Rage]

Woo-hoo! We are all gonna die! And it's going to be my fault!

[Ammokkx]

Okay, so, still on trip. But there's a computer here. I'll see what I can write out and if I can't get a starting post up today, then tomorrow I'll do it.

[AtomicNut]

@Penultimate_PiDoes Lora know of project Homunculus? I mean, that's something that would be kept under wraps. Human clones used as dolls is pretty unethical and gross as it is.
