Specify? He'd be a corporate hero advertising a brand that he actually loves like that A&W guy except with powers. The hero really does believe that his company is doing a lot of good in the world and actually does love the character he plays, it's just every now and again corporate interests interfere with the good he's trying to do.

Wait not cinnamon toast crunch, I meant Mint Berry Crunch

Yeah, neither myself or Jessie are fans of the edge for no reason kind of character, so that's going to be a hard sell for us. I can kind of get by on the somewhat edgy powerbase with a decent guy, though honestly the powers really aren't that edgy. They're a bit generic as you said, so not really sure how it's too much of a curse beyond the whole metagene thing. As for the other idea on the implants, I mean it would require some work and some back and forth on it to get an idea on how viable it is, but it could be plausible.

Before I toss an invite to the discord though, I want to make it pretty clear with you on that closing note. We don't like joke characters. If you're intending to join the RP with a character that is just a joke, something that is meant to bring comedic effect, or that you are not serious with, then don't.

Aight, actually let me think real quick. I dunno if I wanna do the priest character since I kinda wanna do a light-hearted character but don't have the specifics.

Might just do a streamer who got powers if I can't think of anything but a part of me wants to make a fast-food mascot hero as a tribute to a story author I followed before he disappeared.

Actually I really wanna do the mascot hero, aim to make his themes and character arc about facades in the name of uplifting the spirits of the people as well as balancing an idealized character he actually loves with the corporate interests he doesn't agree with. Part cinnamon toast crunch, Sekibayashi and Nezu from Kengan Ashura.

What? lmao

Going to need some clarification on that chief, like just how edgy are we talking here? Like "crawlinginmycrawl", "StraightOuttaLinkinPark", "PapaRoach Before it was Cool", or like "That Emo band that everyone pretends to like, but only listens to because the cute goth girl". And just to be clear here, would I be right in assuming that you specified the powers were edgy and not the guy, because maybe he's just a normal person with a permanent case of criticalEDGE? Also, should we stock up on gauze?

@Alfhedil

My idea would just be crawling in my skin emo guy who had a decently alright life but still quotes the edgy pretentious parts of reddit cause he semi-hates everything for no reason. Powers would be generic shadow or fire manipulation which in any other character would just be a regular, flexible power but this character would consider it his "curse". The other idea would be slight cyber/bio ware implants like a datajacks to plug in implants or completely unnoticeable muscle enhancements, either of which would make him consider himself a "monster".

Mostly like a 70% joke character but it'd be amusing, also if he survives long enough I might put him through character development. Honestly he might even turn normal if slightly awkward if he actually finds friends that try to tell him to quit his bullshit and act like a normal person.

Actually I've got a weeb on another site, the other character would probably just be a super edge lord.

Maybe a half-demon or government made clone who keeps complaining about how terrible his life is in a dark corner even though he's had an alright life up to that point. He'll have super edgy powers who's downsides are actually incredibly superficial or non-existant that he still blows out of proportion.

I'd like to maybe join. I want to base my character on a priest from a light novel I read, maybe not exactly a priest though. The basic concept is a slightly insane guy with a strong sense of justice and faith in something(in the case of the novel, his god). He's incredibly friendly generally unless it's towards somebody with ideals that they're too weak to uphold which usually drives him into a slight rage since he has a slightly Darwinistic mindset.

The Priest made a quote that keeps running through my mind which is something along the lines of "Justice without strength is not just idiotic. Justice without strength is poison." which really has me interested in the concepts of strength and helplessness in the face of evil even if you have strong ideals as well as how those ideals can poison the minds of the weak by making them dependent on a savior or making the strong too dependent on morality they don't actually believe in.

That or a chuuni, depending on how serious people wanna take it then making a weeb ninja or a super edgy lord would be fun too.

Social Distancing

Hi, I've been doing RP pretty inconsistently over the past few years and recently because of the social distancing as well as self isolation in my community I've been really bored. I'm here mostly to pass the time until hopefully, everything goes back to normal.
