@SoleAccordThat's what I'm saying, the moral struggle becomes less potent if there's no reason to think of them as anything but evil. How do you make an argument that isn't so bad if they carry out public executions and blow up hospitals and other super villain crazyness?

Anyway, I hope you get approved and I can't wait to see what our future mentor may look like.

@Renny Nobody has posted a rival CS for red ranger position, so congratulations!



Get that CS moved on to the CS tab! I'll look through some more things for critiquing in the meantime while I'm still on lunch at work.

@ProProThat was hard to read? I didn't think it was too terrible, and no one else said anything. If it becomes a problem I'll find a new color that'll hopefully be easier on your eyes.

Moving her over.

So here's the current status. I'm holding off of making final judgments for @Alexfangtalon, @Kouki, and @TorikRedguard due to the highly competitive nature of this whole situation, and due to the fact that Tommy isn't actually quiiiiite done with his stuff just yet. By the end of tonight, or tomorrow morning, that should change. In the meantime, I don't think there are any other characters posted up yet. That means that I'm still waiting on the final completion for our yellow ranger submission by @Stern Algorithm, and for the roles of all 3 villains, the mentor, and the pink/violent ranger. Wow, there's more open positions than I had thought. Come on people, let's get to it!

I don't think we're getting every villain role filled. And I gave the Mentor role up to give Matt a chance and he hasn't been showing up at all, so that feels like a waste already. If we are waiting for every spot filled, I have my doubts this is ever going to get started. Would it be easier to wait for a villain, build the rangers we have up, and maybe introduce the empty spots later should character sheets be made?

I know I said I'd get my Villian CS up today but a few things came up for college that I had forgotten about and I got distracted by an RP I had been waiting on to start for weeks that just started. XD

I'll get it done post haste though.

I'm not sure, but I've a suspicion I've been on drugs for the last week.

I think I've finally found my grammar and ability to make a complete sentence without, using the comma, key, a whole bunch.

Would I be annoying if I put up a completely different CS for a General spot?

@SoleAccord@Kouki@ProPro@Charnobylisk@Stekkmen@Renny I'd love it if y'all gave me your thoughts on my character. Also if need be, I have ideas for a few of the other spots in case we need it. My first choice is still Green Ranger, but I would drop my stake for it if we had to have another spot filled and no one was trying for it at all. Do you want me to do that Pro? Make the judging easier for you, and we'd have at least a CS for one of the empty spaces.

@alexfangtalon@TorikRedguard

I'm dropping out, now there's no competition for either side. You two should be the green and blue rangers respectively.

@ProPro, if you approve of my CS and the ranger abilities. Please allow me to be the dark purple ravager of death....I mean, the violet hero who brings about justice and sunshine...yeah...

I'll move my CS here along with the sample and Ranger CS I posted on the last page for the sake of convenience.

Really long question...

What would be a more interesting fight-

A stealthy, "teleporting" dagger wielding assassin lady who has strategically set up cameras all over the city...

Or:

A genetically and cybernetically modified military general, who's eight foot tall, is eavily armored power-axe-wielding overtly aggressive power-house of a warrior?

The assassin would be a sort of a sarcastic mercenary, really in it for the cash, but is ridiculously skilled in security, surveillance, and information gathering, making her a useful asset to Galatec. No intentions of betraying Galatec, either. She'd probably come in contact with the rangers, using her "teleportation" (I have a pretty sweet technology in mind for making that balanced and cool) to have a sweet fight scene before escaping/routing the rangers.

On the other hand, the military general has a double-sided war-axe with special shock-wave powers. He may have a telekinetic robotic hand that fires a projectiles that I've been wanting to use for a long time. And, he'll be really abusive to the Githkin, probably picking them up either physically or with his potential telekinetic abilities and straight up throwing them at the Rangers. Probably shouting insults the whole way, too. And he'll be a good accountant on the side.

I just wanted to ask, since the General's will eventually encounter the Rangers and have a cool fight. Hypothetically I get chosen, and the two sides get into a fight, (which is bound to happen since big-baddies are like, a staple of power-rangers, so they'd have to meet at least one time), which would be a more interesting and potentially creative battle?

The assassin fight would probably be a series of 1v1's or 1v2's as she skips around the battle field. Basically having multiple duels and skirmishes with pairs or singles of the different Power Rangers in quick succession. This would be a more personal arena-style fight, keeping in mind micro managing footwork and stuff to have a cool gun-fu fight.

The big robot guy would have to be a more group effort, with all or most of the Power Rangers having to contribute, probably getting knocked around every once in a while like in show. (Whack. "woaaaaaah!" thump.) It'd be more stationary I'd bet.

Again, this is hypothetical. But It'd be a mighty shame if you all went this whole RP without encountering the Generals one time. The way I'd play the assassin, she's probably be skipping around the city, searching for the Rangers, before ambushing them before/after a mission. Meanwhile, the military guy would probably be protecting a key strategical outpost at the time of the encounter.

Sorry to ramble on, but I was done thunkin' pretty hard about it for some reason, and I would just like to bounce it off of some one before making any big time commitments. The Original Post stated that the General's were badass, I inferred they would be some form of a boss-fight. If I'm mistaken...well I'm mistaken and this whole thing doesn't matter. XD

@StekkmenI could create a simulation for both characters, show you the potential of their individual abilities in a fight against the current ranger candidates.

Would that help?

@Kouki Oh. Um, ok. I had a plan, but your action clears everything up nicely. Well thank you for stepping down from the two that you really wanted to get. You shall be rewarded for this sacrifice, Kouki. Which brings me to the next important portion of this update.

@Kouki We officially have our Violet Ranger. Get that CS on the CS tab!


@alexfangtalon Ollie is good to go, bro! Green is up in the house, so you can move him right on over to that CS tab!


@TorikRedguard Tommy is here to spread cheer, and fight for freedom of all! The blue ranger is on the team and can be moved to the CS tab!

@Kouki
If it'd be fun for you, go right ahead! :P

Both people have a sort of "tele-" in their name that needs explaining.

The assassin has two "anchor" daggers. In order to teleport to a location, she must first throw the dagger there. The dagger has...some science gravity-rocket technology in it, that makes it go much faster and always go blade-first. It has some anti-gravity tech, I guess, that allows it to stick to concrete and steel walls, and also be able to hold her wait. So she can throw one blade to her left, another to her right, and then quickly teleport from the right and then to the left. When she teleports, her hand is already grabbing the dagger to be thrown again.

The robo-general telekinetic ability also has an "anchor" ability. In order to grab something, a small-bullet like projectile is fired. Whatever it hits, turns into a anchor-point that he can manipulate almost freely. It damages, but doesn't latch onto Energy Shields and other hard-light hardware. So he'd have to shatter (I imagine that they shatter and then come back after a little bit, right?) or find some other situation where the Power Ranger's can't block it or dodge it. He can fire multiple of these at the same time, slamming things together in-mid air, or even having certain objects rotate around him as shields.

I think it's pretty cool. Isn't it cool? I hope it's cool. Lots of neat scenarios are possible depending on where the fight happens.

EDIT: Congrats to the Rangers! :P

@ProProYAY, APPROVAL AND SPECIAL POWER COIN!!! I AM THE SHIT!!!!!

I'm not gonna lie, I am a little sad that I gave up the holo-projector....so many possibilities...*sniff*...

BUT!

In writing those scenes, I realized that it wasn't the powers that were making me awesome, it was the fact that I made a solid character that was fully capable of killing anything in his path and really....isn't that the best power of all?

Cause at the end of the day, the power to kill creatures whose only crime was being born, well, that powers inside us all....deep in our hearts.

Plus, I didn't want those two to make another CS or whatever, they seemed to really want to be Green and Blue respectively and this just kind of ties everything up in a neat bow.

Just....@alexfangtalon...use the projector right, treat her well..she deserves it..

By the way, what was going to be the method of choosing?
