You guys mind if I move us over to the action?
That's fine, we are a pretty boring little bunch all by our lonesomes at the moment. :)

I'm having way too much fun with my Legend of Zelda Encylopedia. This is the game that got me into roleplaying so have a lot invested in it's lore and stories. Too bad can't have all the games too.

Titanius tensed up momentarily when the Hera appeared, but like the Saiyan before him, he did not appear to be in the mood for combat. The Hera were an interesting race, from what he recalled, most of them were pirates and so never took sides in the conflict between the machine mutants and the rest of the galaxy, preferring to take advantage of the situation when it fit their purposes. As they were pure organics they did tend to favor their own kind of course.
The man, Darbin, was noticeably tense, but seemed level headed enough to not start making trouble in their current situation. "I suppose survivors would be the appropriate term at this time considering our location. While I would love to hear more about each of you, I believe our current priority should be information gathering on the surrounding area."
Titanius stood up from his makeshift seat and looked at the two in turn, his helmet swiveling in the process. "I suggest we agree to avoid conflict until we can ascertain our current situation."

Titanius digested the information quietly while observing the rather defeated looking Saiyan. It was certainly not what he was expecting, usually Saiyans would at least put up a front when confronted with a potential enemy but this woman appeared to have no fight left in her. It was actually quite disturbing.
"I am afraid I was brought as well so I am not privy to any information about our current predicament or location. Perhaps if I could map the stars I could chart our present location but as I know not how the day and night cycles work on this planet I cannot say when that could occur."
Titanius mused as he found a sizable piece of rubble to use as a chair and sat down.
"Something you have said intrigues me however. You claim you wished to have died with the rest of your race? From my memory I do not recall Planet Vegeta being in any great peril from the machine mutant forces, if anything the machine mutants were slightly losing overall as I recall."
Titanius crossed his arms over his chest and tilted his head a bit in thought, his organic side showing through.
"Even if Dr. Muyuu had retrieved my schematics I doubt the war would have shifted that dramatically in a mere ten years. Also you did not seem particularly perturbed by my appearance, which would set most pure organics on edge. Were your foes Machine Mutants and how long have you been at war?"
Depending on the answer and time frame perhaps he could fill some of the gaps in his memory.

Titanius was glad he had at least been deactivated while in his combat armor, as it was taking quite a long time for his systems to fully boot up after such a long time of inactivity. Most of his external sensors had recovered by this point which was useful for gathering information as he scrounged through the wreckage. Most things had been burned to ash but there was still plenty of items that spoke to him about the residents of this planet.
The truth was it was a hodge-podge of many things. Whatever people had been here they had come from a vast variety of backgrounds. Remnants of various races could be found all over the place if they knew what to look for. Bits of Namekian artifacts, scraps from a training gi with human lettering, shards of various weaponry crafted by different hands, even a strange coin with the face of a human man sporting a large afro, this location had been a mixture of many different races coming together. This was not something that happened naturally, as far as he knew from his previous experiences.
@Chev
Having pieced together this strange truth, he found himself walking toward the remains of a large building on the outskirts of the city. He stopped when something caught his eye, his enhanced vision zoomed in on the object in question and he set his jaw firm with worry. He quickly took cover behind some debris as he thought about his next move.
He had seen a Saiyan pod along with a Saiyan female near it, had he been followed by one of the Saiyan warriors? While a single Saiyan was nothing to worry about normally, Titanius himself wasn't exactly in top-top shape himself. It would probably still take another hour for all his systems to fully initialize and allow him access to his full power. Titanius did a thorough scan of the surrounding area for more enemies but found none at present. As long as there was only the one, a gamble for more information would be easy enough, even if he was attacked the probability of him being killed was quite low.
Taking a deep breathe behind his helmet, Titanius broke from his cover walked in a slow, methodical way toward the Saiyan. As long as he approached carefully there was a chance he could talk without combat, which would be the most efficient way to gather data.
"Greetings Saiyan. If you have come to hunt me down I will oblige you with combat; however, as we have both just recently awoken I would prefer we exchange information rather than fight."
Titanius's advanced sensors detected a slower heartbeat than was normal, compounded with the fact the pod had just recently been blown open it was easy to guess she had just woke up from a hibernation cycle.

I'll avoid the big group up for now to make sure we don't get potentially bogged down.
@Chev
For the first interaction I believe running into Tabaga makes the most sense location wise. Also considering his last encounter with Saiyans he'll be a bit on-edge to say the least.

Well everyone but my character anyway. Machine mutant boy gonna be the only one without the crushing weight of emotional baggage.
Not that there won't be a few things but much more interested in just figuring out the current situation right now.

@PPQ Purple Eh don't sweat it too much. A lot of us are old-hat rpers and tend to be a bit wordy is all. Your post looked fine to me except for a typo or two, but that happens all the time so whatever.
Less-is-more sometimes. Never feel like you have to reach the same length of postage as some of us or have to go out of your way to put in soundtracks, etc. Some people just like adding some extra flare.
Well if nothing else, nothing wrong in going over a post you've already done and sprucing it up a smidge if you feel like it.

Titanius's starting location will be the Business district. Eh, decided better to just add that in rather than just rely on this post. XD

[REBOOT PROTOCOL ACTIVATED...]
Titanius's eyes snapped open and quickly started to take in as much data as possible through all his senses. He was laying face down on the ground, his armor intact which suggested that he had been in combat before shutting down...but what had happened and where was he? His mind was foggy and it took surprisingly quite a bit of effort to scramble up on his feet. For the moment he stood still as he turned his head to get as much information as possible.
He was not sure where he was or how he had got there. The last memory he could remember of him being captured by Dr. Muyuu and a few of his machine mutants. Going by that memory, he should have been reactivated back at the doctor's lab but instead he found himself in the middle of nowhere, his body reactivated automatically as a defensive mechanism due to extreme circumstances. His best bet was to look into whatever memory logs had been made after his forced shut down.

[RECONSTRUCTING MEMORY...]
In his mind a record of events started to unfold.
In his mind a record of events started to unfold.
"Humph, I suppose it was to be expected of my creation to elude me for so long. I knew M-3 would prove to be the next step in machine mutant evolution. I suppose I'll need to put in additional safeguards to prevent a repeat occurrence."
In his mind he could see Dr. Muyuu standing in from of him with a pleased expression on his face. While he had been shut down by the doctor's commands it was not a complete shut down, but all independent functions had been suspended. With a simple command the machine mutants released their hold on Titanius and the doctor forced him to follow along behind him.
As the group traveled they were suddenly beset by a large group of giant apes that jumped out from the rocks. Their attacks were swift and coordinated, their large blasts knocking the machine mutants into a state of confusion. Dr. Muyuu lay crumpled on the ground, the first slavo having taken out one of his legs.
"Accursed beasts! How dare you interfere in the next stage of universal evolution! No matter, I won't let you destroy M-3!" Rage and desperation in his eyes, the doctor sent a set of instructions to Titanius as two of his machine mutant guards quickly picked him up and tried to escape to safety. "Once I'm done with these monkeys I'll pick you up so I can complete what I started!"
His programming engaged, Titanius watched as his body raced from the scene, smashing everything in its path. Within minutes he had located a Saiyan pod, took over its systems and escaped from the planet. After that...nothing happened, no additional signals, no commands, Titanius's body merely drifting in space. To prevent any potential death by natural causes, his body went into stasis mode and everything went black.

Conton City Ruins - Business District
Checking his internal clock it showed it had been 11 years, 6 months and 14 days since his body had gone into stasis. Seeing such a great deal of time had transpired, Titianus came to the conclusion that Dr. Muyuu had met his end on that planet while he had been drifting in space ever since. However, if that was true, how had he arrived on this new world? By all accounts he should have woken up in the Saiyan pod when it had entered the atmosphere, his preservation programming forcibly waking him up to ensure his survival. Instead he had woken up on the middle of the ground, with no sign of the pod, or even other inhabitants.
A quick self-diagnostic and he noticed his systems had rebooted because of a [SUDDEN COORDINATE CHANGE], this meant that someone or something had forcibly moved him from the pod while he was in stasis, triggering his self-preservation protocols. Unfortunately he had been deactivated for so long he was suffering from a cold systems reboot, it would take some time for everything to get back to normal working conditions.
For now, it would be in his best interests to figure out exactly where he was and what his current situation would be. The city appeared completely raised to the ground, probably caught up in the ongoing war between machine mutants and the rest of the galaxy, at least that was his best guess; the problem with that assessment was there was no evidence to back it up, and neither side had a habit of cleaning up after themselves.
The events were not lining up properly, more observation would be required to ascertain exactly what exactly had transpired. Titanius started to sift through the debris of the city for clues as to what exactly was going on.

When the role play gets going, it will be a good idea to always have at least two 'objectives' when the battle elements start so the group can be split between them. With a Gm and a co-gm that makes it a lot easier to do. Well aside from splitting the load should help things flow better.
So, at the start of this role play I assume we all would have just gone through a multi-dimensional hop so it would make sense if we don't all teleport over with pin-point accuracy, especially if it all happened at the same time. Anyway I am planning on having Titanius waking up from about a decade long sleep so he'll probably be a little groggy and disoriented at first. Well the opening mentions a temple being within sight after dimension hopping so most people would probably head toward the one building in sight first to figure out what is going on. If needed the Supreme Kai of Time can always Kai-Kai everyone there too when the time comes.
