Star Wars Rp?

Depends on the kinds if RP ideas you've got. Always open to Star Wars. Also, bring that you are new here. Standard etiquette is to not bump a thread till its gone to page 2.

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

Right, sadly, i'm gonna have to pull out of this as i have just taken over responsibility of GMing the new Power Rangers Essence20 RPG for friends and i'm gonna be putting my Power Rangers creative juices towards that.

Star Wars - Invasion [multiverse spaceship RP]

@Dead Cruiser The way i was going to plan it was that he'd get possessed by the blue ring and immediately head over to their ship. And as soon as orientation is out of the way, he goes back to apologize for getting shanghai'd and request permission for detatched duty to the Last Hope. Make it nice and legal and above board.

@Sep As i said, i couldn't really figure out a compelling character for a low levelled Sapce Marine battle brother and i know sod all about Halo or RvB. Plus... I mean, i was really looking forward to a Goa'Uld doing some proper golden Egyptian shit with the ring. Making Horus Guard and Palm Weapons and shit using the yellow energy... As a counter proposal. Would it be ok to say that Janice is a Tok'Ra? I was thinking something along the lines of Janice having been in a combat scenario and nearly killed when a Tok'Ra parasite does it's usual trick when it finds a human missing most of its internal organs and vital fluids.. Naturally Janice didn't want to leave Earth or SG1 because she's got a family back home and the US Government decided that keeping an alien on call that knows everything about their enemies technology at a moments notice isn't such a bad thing.

Jack: "And why the heck wasn't i told about this?"
Janice: "Because you'd have said "I don't want any of these damn snake-heads anywhere near my damn ship" and would have kicked up a stink"
Daniel: "Jack doing something impulsive and disrespectful of the chain of command? What gave them the idea he'd do anything that childish?"
Teal'C: *Raises eyebrow*

If not then i'll probably change it to another Star Wars character.

Star Wars - Invasion [multiverse spaceship RP]

@Sep I dunno, i mean, in Atlantis, Caldwell was established to have been Goa'ulded for at least long enough to go to Atlantis, back to Milky Way and back to Atlantis and that slipped straight past everyone. They did establish that the screening process is anything but foolproof and a few agents do slip through the net. It kinda makes sense that at least one or two would be able to make their way onto some of the ships. Hense why i said it was only a low-level spy there to keep on the ships movements and not do anything like sabotage.

I did talk to Martian about Hotrod, but yeah, i assumed that Dead Cruiser wouldn't miss a nameless redskirt.

Star Wars - Invasion [multiverse spaceship RP]

@Sep Alright, i've added all of the characters i immediately wished to use. Sadly, a few character sheet entries that i couldn't really take a character from due to the small crew compliment... Or in the case of Vengeful Spirit, i literally could not figure out what to do there. But i rounded out the rest of the list with logical Star Wars characters. I know that Satine is currently being used by you, but i put her up because i see 3 ways of sorting that:
1) I play Satine from now on and continue the story you've got going on with her.
2) You continue to play Satine, but now she's got a Star Sapphire ring.
3) You tell me no dice on Satine and i go with my second choice of the ring grabbing Anakin due to his love of Padme.
Essentially, i wanted someone that would prevent Maul from just taking the red ring and murdering Obi-Wan with it. And i could not justify the red ring grabbing anyone other than "Man, literally, too angry to die"

Last Hope

Name of Ship: Last Hope (Formerly "Ripped Throat")
Home Universe/Name of Franchise: DC
Ship Class: Red Lantern Light Assault Ship (No wiki link available, but being that it's supposed to only serve as a means of FTL for the Red Lanterns to deploy troops en-masse, i am basing how it works on the CR90 Corvette.)
Role: Troop Carrier
Physical Description/Image:



Physical Size (roughly): 150m in length
Armament/Complement (roughly):

7 Dorsal mounted twin Red Lantern Anti-Aircraft Particle Cannons
14 Broadside twin Red Lantern Heavy Cannons (7 on each side)

History of the Ship: Originally created by the Red Lanterns for their invasion of Oa, after the Anti-Monitor invasion, it was pressed into service against his forces. Joining the Grand Alliance of Lantern Corps, the ship served valiantly on the firing line. During the last battle, it served in the opposite of its intended purpose as it stood in defence of Oa, but was pulled off of the front line in order to serve as an escape ship. Ganthet took personal command of it as he formulated a plan to save Oa. He would travel to another universe and gather heroes from there. To achieve this, each of the Lantern Corps gave him one of each of their rings (They did have to hold down Larfleeze and pull an Orange ring from his hands) as well as taking one of the Black rings stored in the vaults and has headed to another universe to get reinforcements.
Notable Crew:

Guardian Ganthet of Oa: One of the Guardians of Oa, Ganthet has done many questionable things in his life and this makes him one of the most respected among the rest of the Corps. Whereas all of the other Guardians tend to act above the rest of the universe, Ganthet understands the importance of wading into the muck to get a good look at the situation. He was even expelled from the council when he first founded the Blue Lantern corps. But after proving invaluable to them was eventually invited back. Ganthet is the most pragmatic leaders of any of the Lantern Corps and knows when he needs to take a chance.
Hotrod An Autobot that serves within the lower bowels of the Ark. He idolizes Optimus in a childlike way. One day he wishes to hold the Matrix of Leadership and help light the Autobots darkest hour, but right now, he is little more than a footsoldier that knows that he is destined for greater things. His intense personality and hotheadedness, but tempered by his legitimate hope to do what he knows is right has attracted the attention of the Green Ring of Will.
Airman Janice Parker (A.K.A. Fetket): One of the lower ranking members of the crew of the Prometheus, Parkers career was wholly uneventful (The whole travelling to other worlds as the crew of Humanities first starship not withstanding) that was until she found herself the new body for the Gao'uld Agent Fetket. Fetket's whole mission is to keep tabs on the Prometheus and report back to the System Lords. She was previously one of Ra's top agents but after his demise, she now serves Lord Yu. Just because Yu has something of an uneasy truce with the Tau'Ri doesn't mean his eyes are off of them. The fear that is felt among the Tao'Ri of the Gao'uld sliding into them and making them unwilling meat-puppets was more than enough to lure the Yellow Ring of Fear to choose her as it's host.
Jedi Master Plo-Koon: A member of the Jedi Council and one of the most skilled and respected Masters in the order. He has served as the master to many Knights in his 300+ years on the council and is seen as somewhat a father figure to many around him. He is notorious for his selflessness and his willingness to throw himself into danger without a second thought if it is to save a life. "No one is expendable to me." This total compassion for others has not only garnered respect from others but has also granted him the ability to tap into powers others cannot. Specifically the Electric Judgement, a form of Force Lightning that does not draw from the dark side of the force. This made him an obvious candidate for receiving the Indigo ring upon the ships arrival.
Lieutenant Luke Farst: A Federation Tactical officer working aboard the Enterprise. Working down in the midship, his speciality is weapons design. Refining weapon beams and creating new phaser frequencies. His hope is to never again see anything like Wolf 359 happen. He lost a lot of good friends there aboard the Melbourne, Buran and Firebrand. It is this hope and his total dedication to the Federation ideals of hope in the face of hopelessness that attracted the Blue ring.
Maul: The creature known as Maul is a terrifying beast. Kidnapped from his mother at a young age and trained in the darkest pits of cruelty and despair, he was turned into a Dark lord of the Sith. 11 years ago, he was brutally cut down by Obi-Wan Kenobi and he was left to rot in another pit, until he was rescued by his brother. He was kept alive only by his purest of hatred for Kenobi and such hatred is stronger than anyone can imagine. The perfect pyre which lit the way for the Red Ring of Rage to find its way to him.
Hondo Ohnaka: Hondo is a pirate, a businessman, a self-proclaimed feminist and has loyalties to nothing except credits. He doesn't care where the credits flow so long as they flow in ample supply. Sometimes he'll save lives, other times he'll take them. All the same to him. This absolute love of credits and money is what made him an irresistible target for the Orange Ring of Avarice.
Duchess Satine Kryze of Mandalore: Duchess Satine is the current leader of Mandalore. Her devotion to pacisim is a blessing to many, but a curse to everyone else. Whilst the majority of her people want to keep the peace, there is a small but very vocal minority that demands to go back to the old ways of throwing themselves against the brick-wall that is the republic, before getting their planet glassed in response. A tactic that people got sick of a milennia ago and decided to give peace a chance. She loves Mandalore, she loves Democracy, she loves peace and more than anything else, her heart loves Obi-Wan Kenobi. And this love has garnered the affections of the Star Sapphire Ring.

Optional, but helpful:
Unique Technology: Lantern Battery (The Red Lantern battery that powers the ship draws power from the rage of those in the battle around it.)
Crew Size: 1 (Minimum) 176 (Optimal)
Faction/Operator/Owner: Grand Lantern Alliance

This is the CS as the ship gets picked up by Daniel, do you want me to write out character bio's for the Crew Members it picks up when it arrives?

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

Jan Treyson

Name - Jan Treyson
Color - Green
Age - 18
Face Claim -

Personality - Oblivious and emotionally unstable, yet caring. He is ruled entirely by his heart and that gets in the way of his ability to properly think through a lot of his actions. It also works in his favour making him rather unpredictable as he acts almost entirely on instinct. He is a hugger though, so people will often feel his arms around them. He is VERY religious having fallen in with a minor religion that worships Animus.
Skills -
Zord Pilot Ace (Although his phyiscal combat abilities are somewhat lacking, his mastery with Zord combat is second to none.)
Stunted Genius intelligence (Previously, he could be considered Billy levels of genius, he is a top scoring student of the Triforian education system which leaves the Human system in the dust. Ever since the split, he still has access to his intelligence, but he lacks the ingenuity to use it as effectively as he once was. He does get flashes of his former brilliance when he comes into close proximity with his other selves)
Instinctual fighting skills (The simple fact is that Trey only has fighting skills when his morpher instills them in him. Outside of his morphed form, he just swings wildly, which is somewhat an advantage as it makes his fighting somewhat unpredictable)
Background/Brief Bio - Born on Triforia, son to King Trey, Jan was raised with some of the finest education in the known galaxy. He was smart even by Triforian standards which could be considered lightyears ahead of humans of his age. When he was 12, his father sent him to live on Earth and to see the birthplace of the Power Rangers. He lived in Turtle Cove for a long time, where he fell in with a minor cult called the Church of Animus. During this time he developed his affinity for Zords. He drew up his first Zord blueprint at the age of 13 and as a present from his father, was brought back to Triforia to test pilot it. Jan would return to Earth the following year to continue his studies.

During one expedition to the woods of Turtle Cove, looking for the sacred Grove of the Wildzords, he was ambushed by a mysterious figure that he never got a good look at. The figure quickly dispatched him and separated him into his 3 component pieces. Jan of Heart, Jan of Ingenuity and Jan of Passion. The three were captured and taken to a place he didn't recognize where 3 statues of wolves stood. The figure and their group of minions managed to cast a spell that put the wolf spirits into Ingenuity and Passion, ressurecting the terrible forms of Zen-Aku in Ingenuity and Koragg within Passion. However, before the pair could be fully controlled by the evil spirits, they managed to break free and rescue Heart from being possessed by the final spirit. They managed to harness their powers long enough to teleport Heart to safety, but Heart never heard from them again. Unable to face the burden of telling his father what happened, he quickly gathered all of his things and moved to Angel Grove without telling anyone. He needed to make sure his father didn't find him. He has kept mostly to himself ever since.
Villain of Choice - Zen-Aku/Koragg The Wolf Knight
Notes -

Sample Post

Jan awoke with a scream. He had that dream again. The wolves surrounding him. He has to make something to get out of it, but he can't think. He can't do it. The pen doesn't work, the pieces won't go together. He rolled over to see the crystal next to his bed glowing... His father wanted to talk with him... But he can't talk to him, not yet. He slowly got dressed and walked over to his desk. It was absolutely covered with failed Zord designs. Most of them didn't even resemble a Zord. His latest one Didn't even resemble a set of blueprints. He was losing his mind... He thumbed the pendant around his neck "Animus, give me strength..." He groaned before looking at the crystal again. "And what do i say to him? Hi, it's 1 third of your son!" He sat down on the bed and simply existed for a minute, very few thoughts circulated in his head bar the obvious ones. What would he eat today, would he go to Ernie's? The crystal shined again. He shook his head and walked over to the fridge and looked inside. Grabbing a juice box he stood up and poked the plastic straw in, chugging the entire thing in one go. He then walked over to the mirror and stared at himself. No ingenuity to solve his problems, no passion to go out and find them... But he knew he had to. He couldn't just rely on heart forever. He slowly got dressed, before putting on his best brave face and walking out of the door to his apartment and slowly making his way down the stairs to the streets. He looked up to see the sun rays beginning to shine through the dark cloudy sky and he thumbed the necklace again before looking up and smiling "Thank you for another glorious day, and may the great Condor glow away the squalls that darken the sky." He whispered before kissing the pendant and moving on.

Walking through the streets, he passed a lot of nameless faces that he saw most days. Just as he got to the Juice Bar, he saw Cameron, a local member of the congregation handing out leaflets to passers by. Jan approached him and offered him a hand of friendship which was accepted and shaken. "How is the recruiting going?" He asked.

"About as well as you can expect." Cameron shook his head. "But you know how it is. People don't want to believe in something they can't see."

"Yeah, but how does that work, we see Megazords on the news all the time, you can pull up the news feeds from back in '03 of Animus RIGHT THERE." He sighed.

"Hey, it's not our job to question their ignorance. It's our job to tell them of the gospel of Animus and to bring them to his light. Some people don't want to be saved. But whether we worship him or not, he'll return when we need him the most."

"And lo', the skys shook and the earth parted. As if the rising of a second son, the mortals witnessed Animus as he bore his light into the world once again. And he spake "I am Animus, lord of the Wild Zords. Sing to appease them and i will help you in your darkest hour. All that is required is that you remember who you are." Shayla 4-14.

"Right on, brother." Cameron replied. A passer by stopped and looked at the pamphlet that was handed to him.

"I mean with all of the worlds other crazy religions, why not worship a giant robot?" The man asked

"Animus is more than just a giant robot. He gave the Wild Force Rangers the power to save humanity when nobody else would. He has watched over and protected us for over 3000 years." The passer by nodded and walked away, before shaking his head debunkingly. "So yeah, it's been going that well."

"Fair enough. I'm definitely going to be at service on Sunday, Animus knows i need it."

"Father Baliton will be happy to hear that. I'll say you send your best." Cameron replied. Jan wrapped his arms around Cameron and hugged him tightly. "Damn, man you ok?"

"Just... Bad times..." Jan replied. "I'll see you soon." He said, waving before heading to the juice bar. "Each day as the sun rises, i hurry from my sleep. I can't wait to greet you with my song-" Little did Jan know that, as he entered the Juice Bar, he was being watched from the shadows by a mysterious pair of figures.

"We need to take him now. Oliver and Cranston are in the area" The figure in Purple armour laughed.

"Exactly why we can't strike now. We'd get bogged down in a pointless fight." The black clad one responded

"Pointless? We need to lure them in and slay them NOW before they can formulate their scheme. They will fall before my blade and i will go down in history as-"

""Yet another monster that was killed by Oliver." I know i'm the one with the brains, but you need to remember that those two may be old, but they are resourceful. If they learn about us and get away, it'll take no time for them to formulate a way to defeat us. Give Cranston a chance to study you and you're as good as dead. Besides... The master has a special plan for those two. We just need to get Heart and complete the ritual, then we will be unstoppable."

Not sure if non-human rangers are allowed, but i've had this idea in mind for ages and wanted to try it out.

Power Rangers - Legacy of the Dragon

Always up for Power Rangers

Star Wars - Invasion [multiverse spaceship RP]

@Sep Hense why i said a background character. Nobody that they would plan on using. Definitely taking Mr Redskirt and his powerful Chad Stride from Enterprise

Star Wars - Invasion [multiverse spaceship RP]

Hey, this is back. Seeing how the power ceiling is higher, would you mind me trying that idea i discussed last time we tried this RP? Essentially, the Green Lantern Guardian Ganthet has his hands on one of each of the Lantern Rings, so when he arrives in this universe, he recruits a nameless background character from each of the other ships as well as from the Star Wars universe at large to be his Lantern crew?
