Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

What we're also forgetting is that the story didn't die with Monty. Many on the writing staff have said Monty laid out the story for them and honestly that makes sense. The writers aren't there to awe and surprise, they're there to help shape the story and decide how they want the direction to go. Keeping secrets among them would be idiotic and frankly hard to work with. (I mean, we do that but we're not running a single plot line for a separate audience. We have subplot after subplot where each of us are the head writers and the others are both co-writers and the audience.)

My opinion (feel free to agree or disagree): Had Monty not unfortunately passed, the show would still be introducing and expanding on these ideas we don’t care for. Only real difference is the combat and animation wouldn't have dropped at all.

But, Jessi is already there. He challenged him to a one on one (which Chen decided to jump in on) and he's been waiting for a response from Tegonay. Unless what you're asking is for Jessi to start the fight in which case I could whip something up if you'd like?

Awesomorant: Too many Legendaries

So far my biggest problem is with how many super powerful things that have been introduced.

First we had the maidens. They were a bit out there but at least they spent a good part of season three explaining what they were and how they fit in. From here we can guess the main villains want these powers and by getting them they could take over the world. Done. Plot established.

Then, we got the silver eyes. Ummm… what? Where did that come from? We had no mention of it (well, we had an off hand comment by Ozpin in THE FIRST EPISODE!) And because of that we were all thinking Ruby would be a maiden since that was the thing the season had been building and not Deus Eye machine.
But since then they've played it down as more a super form rather than something like the maiden powers. Alright, good guys have an advantage now without altering the evil plot too much, I can live with that.

And now, we have the relics. Four items of power that could change the world by whoever has them...WHY!?! Why add these triforce rip offs when we already had the maidens? Beacon still could have fallen. Eliminate Ozpin and throw the world into such discord they don't see what's happening. You don't have to say there's treasure below it! Just make it the bad guys new base while they search for the maidens. Want them to attack the other schools? Easy, have the maidens hide in them and bunker down until the good guys have a plan.

I do still like the show, but they keep throwing powerful legendary shit into the mix that it's getting hard to follow. Just pick something and build upon that rather than trying to wow us with new artifacts and what not.

Angus MacCallum

Angus shook his head at Itsuko’s comment about Chiyo being their “boss”.”I signed up for the Rangers, not the Masks. Chiyo might be a king, but as far as this alliance is concerned we’re working with her, not for her. Even then I’m not sure I care for either.” he stated while finding a place to set his edibles down. ”Ah, but this is the festival. Let’s not fret over DGO politics. Right now we’ve got a booth to run.” Angus kicked off his shoes and began unbuttoning his shirt. ”Let me know when that friend of yours shows up. Til then, I’ll be in there praying for constantly changing winds.”

Stripping down to the swim trunks he’d been wearing under his clothes, Angus climbed into the dunk tank and took a seat. He actually didn’t mind being there that much. His hair was usually scruffy anyway, and since they had access to the showers it wasn’t like he’d have to be sticky the whole festival. All in all it wasn’t as bad as people thought. So when their first customer showed up Angus had an idea of how to really reel them in.

”Ah, yer wasting yer time Cassy! From the looks of it, I doubt that lass could even lift a ball much less throw it!” He yelled from the tank. Nothing got people motivated quite like heckling from their potential victims.

The War of the Three

Omega

After the loss of Alt Signia, Omega found himself aimlessly wandering the halls of Celestia. Choosing a more secluded part he walked alone accompanied only by the soft chink of his spurs that echoed through the empty halls. While others drank or sat around trying to forget their woes, Omega racked his brain trying to figure out what heaven’s next step would be.

This latest defeat had put them in quite a bind. Without the resources from Ruthia they wouldn’t have the power needed to make any grand pushes. Even if they did have them or managed to steal them back Alt Signia was the only facility they had that could actually use them. The unfortunate truth was, unless they got something to tip the scales back in their favor, the next major conflict wouldn’t go well for heaven.

“Excuse me. Are you Omega, The Divine Deputy?” A messenger angel called halting both Omega's train of thought and movement.

”I'm gonna let you guess, slick. Of all the hosts of heaven who do you think would go by a name like 'Deputy’?” He said holding out his arms to display his attire.

“Ah. Good point. Anyway I have a package for you from Miyu.” The messenger held out the small package which Omega eyed for a second before taking it from their hands.

"You haven't been keeping up with the times have you?”

“Not really. Why?”

”Nothing. Just that if you had you’d be a bit more cautious with this parcel.” Omega explained as he read the card that was on the package. He gave a short laugh as he finished, ”Well, nice to see somebody appreciates my efforts. Let’s take a gander shall we?” Slipping the note in his duster he reached to untie the ribbon, but stayed his hand after a sudden message from Deva entered his thoughts. ”Heh, duty calls once more. Here, kid, do me a favor and take this to my place will ya?” He tossed the unopened package back to the messenger and readied himself for teleportation. Hopefully this prize was just the thing the Angels needed to get back in the game.

The first think Omega saw as he was teleported to starting point was Miyu with a variety of drinks and snacks on her mech. ”Miyu,” he said calmly walking up to her and glancing at her “equipment”. ”You are without a doubt the strangest person I know. And keep in mind this is coming from an ethereal being who dresses up like a cowboy.”

After the rest of the brave souls who decided to brave Hohenheim's trials showed up, the Alchemist began raving of all the things she had in store and the rules that came with them. After she ended her spiel Omega turned to Juno. ”Hold on a minute, so if we lose we could get turned into test subjects while you get a fancy date? Seems a tad unfair if you ask me.” Omega jested as he checked his revolvers before twirling them back into their holsters. ”Won’t really matter I guess, since we’ll be winning this thing anyway. Right, fellas?”

Balrog

Challenge. That was all he needed to hear.

When Rufus finished his speech, Grafdakka began convulsing violently. Dark orange lighting surged around him until he rose and a familiar though slightly robotic voice roared, ”WHO CHALLENGES BALROG?”

The powers of hell combined with Graf’s weakened mental state had allowed Balrog’s essence to seize control. No longer dormant Balrog was able to fully look over his new form. It was a bit more mechanical than he liked, but it’s potential for destruction was great enough for him to overlook that fact. ”This do. This do very...” Balrog stopped mid sentence as his gaze was caught by the large condom on his crotch cannon, which he had now apparently.

There was really only one person he knew who would do such a thing, and since she was present it all but confirmed his suspicions. ”Succubus,” He growled at Fran. ”You know rules. First Balrog crush enemies, then he crush pelvises.” He pulled the oversized rubber off and tossed it to the side as he stepped through the portal. Hopefully Henry’s dogs would try to eat it before he got home.

---

Balrog glared at the Alchemists castle through her whole speech. How he wanted to just send barrage after barrage of missiles at it until he turned in into a true work of art; which to him was just a pile of rubble. But, doing so might kill Hohenheim and ruin their chance at getting the “prize” that for all he knew could make more things go boom. Couldn’t risk losing something like that now could he?

When she ended he looked at the others, ”So. Who go first?”

@Lugubrious



Doing much better. With the holiday's ending I no longer have friends and family requesting my presence at events, as well as my job becoming much slower. Basically I should be getting back into the swing of things very soon.

As for this RP, I'll try to get something up since we'll be moving on soon, but I do have other RPs in which I'm needed so in case I run out of time just assume Trad stayed in the room and confirmed/denied whatever Robert said.

Well, Balrog is still fused with Graf sooooo Omega and Sharn it is! Now we wait for Dr. Light Deva to give them the message so they can teleport to Dr. Wily's castle Hohenheim's Lab.
