I'm interested.

He would ask nicely. I was just wondering that, if he did, they would be capable of it.

@Athinar

Ah. Yeah, probably. I think. :)

I think I get the gist, it's slightly like what I wanted to do with rp that revolved around the 7 deadly Sins.

Each Sin was represented within an individual they were reincarnated and each Sin had a symbolic animal, which this reborn Sins reflected in their weapons. So, I get what you're implying though coming up with 12 different elements, conceptions, etc. might be a bit much.

I might suggest having them inhabit one individual than having each sign being a weapon that your PC could summon forth. She or he could even hear the spirit's voice inside his/er head while combating either helping or hinder as well as outside combat, maybe some are more dominate than others? It might be easier to do that than purely creating 12 individual and different conceptions that would make each of them stick out from each other.

@Fallenreaper

Mmmm, not quite what I meant. Um, well first I guess I should specify (just in case) that I mean the western Zodiac, so that'd be Aries, Cancer, Sagittarius, Gemini, etc. Second, they're kinda already split up into elements, so there's that. Although the concepts might take a bit.

In Case You Wanted To Know

Fire: Leo, Aries, Sagittarius
Water: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
Air: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Earth: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn

My idea isn't that they'd be sealed into weapons, or something. They would be just...like, spirits. The core of their being is tied to their constellation, which is basically like, their origin. It goes something like, "The zodiac are each sentient beings, with powers relating to their element and their concept. They are immortal-ish, as in they can and will die, but be essentially reborn as a new being but with the same powers (If. If the core identity remains untouched.). They can and have granted their powers to humans/mortals before. They are currently...all either perma-dead or (partially)corrupted by the Nemesis (could be Umbraxis, could be a random thing I make up, depending on @NeutralNexus's answer)."

<Snipped quote by Fallenreaper>

So.. Moving on then. Zodiac signs as actual beings, some kind of lesser deity maybe. Kinda like Hercules but you know without the godly strength. Am I getting that right?

@VATROU

Uhhh, kinda, yeah?

Hmm, if the Zodiac signs are spirits, or actual beings, maybe Uskri could bind one of them to himself?

@Athinar

I think he could, although I thought he was more the type to ask nicely. And there's also the issue that not all of them are still...functioning. :p

That might be rather fun actually, though you have to define entities. AS in living spirits, gods/deities, or something else? I don't think it is against the rules but would be interesting to hear your ideas.

@Fallenreaper

:) Something like living spirits, I guess? I wouldn't say gods, but...hm...

So it goes something like, each of the zodiac signs is a spirit. They're tied mostly to their constellations, and they each represent a kind of concept, like Leo might be Pride, and Gemini could be communication. And then they'd also be tied to their elements, of course.

I'm not sure I've explained my idea clearly, and I think I might be missing a few bits, but I hope it's kinda understandable? XD

Just no Gods, any God-Like character would have to be on the idea of the Asgardians from Marvel or the New Gods in DC.

@nitemare shape

Right. :)

So...how would you all feel about the zodiac signs being entities unto themselves?

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

@Aridian If you are interested, here is how D-Day started.

How long ago was D-Day. Maybe 2-3 weeks ago, I think. @nitemare shape might be able to give an answer. I also think that the portal was not open for more than a day (a couple hours would probably be more accurate). Technically they were not "demons". They were extra-dimensional beings that resemble demons.

@Dedonus

Thanks for that! :D

Hm, so the general idea is that hell doesn't actually exist. Interesting...XD

With that in mind, I'll just finish up a draft of my character sheet then.

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

<Snipped quote by Aridian>

D-Day happened when the demons were like: "Hey, see that shit? Let's fuck it up."

Walking the line also applies to people who kill people to do good things, like Frank Castle (The Punisher)

Identity applies to the secret identity. However, this only applies if they are aware of your existence, which they aren't, really, until you do something (like crash a news copter) or (fight the avatar of a Greek God in the most frequented location in Lost Haven).

@Athinar

They sound like bored teenagers. XD

I see. Thanks! :)

It was centeralized around Sherman Square where Racheli's and Justine's apartment is located, as well as the riots are/have/will(whenever you're currently timeline) happen(ed/ing). There was a large portal that was ripped open and thousands of demons poured out then started to devour whoever they could get their claws, wings, tendrils, or w/e on. Panic ensured, and heroes came to the rescue.

@Fallenreaper

Ah? I see. Hey, yeah, I think my origin idea might work then. XD

Do we know much of anything about the demons? The portal's been closed already, presumably. Question: How long did that take? About an hour?

Walking the Line= Neutral or Independent. Racheli, for example, will be Walk the Line as she isn't going to conquest to dominate the world nor will she aim to save it. Mostly, she will only deal with her own issues and if those issues happen to benefit or the hurt the world, so be it! :p Some might just not want to save the world but still care about those around, consquences be damned. Does that help?

Yes! Yes, it does. Thanks. :)

Yes. If the public knows you than it would be a yes. If not, it's a no.

Right. Okay.

How long has it been since D-Day?

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

Um...so...I have a question about the D-Day thing. How did that actually start? And...were there any major aftereffects? I'm assuming there were people in the square when the portals opened?

Also, walking the line means pretty much neutral, right? Could lean to either side, but are mostly in it for themselves? Would Villain cover someone who just doesn't give a shit about consequences?

Identity refers to whether or not the general public knows of your real identity? Or just your existence in general?

Currently, fun. :p

@Fallenreaper

Heh. :p

@Athinar

Thank you~ :D

To add and elaborate for dear @Aridian;

@NeutralNexus

Aha! Thanks. :D

But wait, I thought Chike called himself by alias Polemos? Did a quick browse of the character section.

Also, Umbraxis - Wow. XD

Wonder how we could possibly fight that thing... :p

Hey, um, also, I post my CS in the characters section?

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

@Aridian Believe me, spatial warping is not OP, we got matter manipulators up in here, I think the only thing off-limits at the moment is time or reality manipulation.

As for this RP's history, do you want the detailed summary or the cliff notes version?

@NeutralNexus

Matter manipulators?! Wow. XD

Hah...I see. Welp. I'll probably stick with the teleporting thing.

Erm...I'd like the detailed summary, but that's probably pretty complicated and long, so I'll just ask for the cliffnotes please? :D

@Fallenreaper I see. XD

So...How's that going for ya?
