Masters of the Universe - Legends of Grayskull

I'll get another post up soon to move everything forward some. I might have Fisto run into one of you and start a convo while we're in the thick of it with these shadow serpents and Masque riding that dragon.

If the four guests viewing the thread made character sheets we'd have a more diverse cast and way more potential to work with. Don't be scared!

There's four guests viewing the OOC/IC for this so I figured I'd update this thread and remind folks we've still got plenty of room!

Masters of the Universe - Legends of Grayskull

“KEEP FIRING! TAKE IT OUT OF THE AIR!” Meka-Neck shouted while operating one of the turrets while using his extendable neck to check on another. Eventually the barrage of blasts took out the shadow dragon’s left wing and it faded away like black smoke. The dragon cried and crashed into the ground, a small earthquake erupted for several moments afterwards.

The rumble of the ground managed to knock Fisto’s drink off of the wooden table it sat on. He was at least thirty feet in the air in the top of a large Eternian tree, his home looking like a tree house mixed with a retired gym owner’s quarters. In a matter of seconds his chest armor was on and he leaped from the tree down to the ground below. You could hear him tearing through the forest as he got closer to the palace and the city walls.

“They managed to take the dragon out of the air, Ram Man. Maybe we’ll catch a break with these serpents too?” Teela joked as several of the large snake like shadow constructs were nearing the walls of the city.

Fisto came leaping out of the forest at the shadow serpents with big metal right hands for several of them before they began retreating towards Lord Masque and his now wingless shadow dragon.

“Where’s your father when you need him, Teela?” Fisto asked punching the last shadow serpent repeatedly before it began to back off and slither away as well. Suddenly Man At Arms showed up in a large vehicle that looked like a giant toy.

“I wanted to bring more than a fist to a gun fight, little brother. I brought a walking tank.” Duncan said stating the obvious from his somewhat Robotech styled transportation with large robotic legs but no arms.

I'll have a post up in just a bit. Gotta run a couple errands then I'll be back home to finish it up.

Having to run my dad to the doc this morning. Fell asleep early so when I get back I'll try and finish the post up. I'll try and work on it if I can get a signal in the parking lot.

Masters of the Universe - Legends of Grayskull

Kevin Smith spoiled the second half of his MotU series, Adam is still alive and my boy Fisto gets some screen time and lines. They should've just released all ten episodes at once. I'll try and get a post up tonight or tomorrow.

I would make it so that Jaguaro King was on a trip to Eternos for some kind of trade arrangement for resources when they were attacked. He could either be outside the walls directly in the thick of it with his transport, or he could already be in the walls reacting to what's going on around him. Maybe he's already in a meeting with Randor when shit hits the fan. Could do a few different things with it @HEAVY METAL

Masters of the Universe - Legends of Grayskull

If anybody has questions about the Episode format or post cap let me know! The easiest way to explain why it's there is so a five minute scene doesn't evolve into a multi-post situation. Once in an older game of mine five characters piled into a vehicle to ride to another location but it took nearly ten posts to get to the vehicle. After another three or four posts I finally just skipped the rest of the ride over and got into the action. Some players got super pissed but it was literally a short scene that evolved into it's own two hour movie.

Also, in the episode list you peeps might notice a spoiler here and there. Oh, and @rocketrobie2 will be joining the group as well! He's been in quite a few of my RPs so he knows what kinda thing to expect!

I left an opening at the end of the 1st Episode Intro post, if somebody wants to rescue the Royal Guardsman from the shadow serpent. You'll notice I leave stuff open ended like that to give players options.

Masters of the Universe - Legends of Grayskull

It all began nearly one year ago….

He-Man and Skeletor were in battle just outside of Castle Grayskull. Several of the Heroic Masters and Warriors were at He-Man’s side, as were several of Skeletor’s usual henchmen. It was unclear what caused the blast of blinding energy, but in the end the two chief combatants were no more and the remaining forces were left with more questions than answers.

This whole time King Randor was under the impression his son was abroad with Orko. Now so much time has passed he’s beginning to wonder about the safety of Prince Adam. For the past year Man-At-Arms, the Sorceress, and Orko have done everything they could to figure out what’s become of He-Man and Skeletor. To this day they’re no closer to the truth.

The Heroic Masters had mostly disbanded over time. Now only Mecha-Neck, Ram Man, Teela, and Man-At-Arms helped the Royal Guard defend the city of Eternos. On a day like any other Lord Masque chose to attack the capitol city again, making his presence known with shadow dragons and serpents bringing terror to the peoples outside of the city walls.

Episode List

Ep. 1 – The Beginning: With He-Man and Skeletor missing for nearly a year, Lord Masque attempts to attack the Royal Palace. Man-At-Arms put a call out to former Masters as well as his younger brother, but who else will answer?

Ep. 2 – The Silver Swordsman: Who’s the mysterious guy flying around with the strange sword? He’s not what anybody expects and he spells doom for everyone on the planet.

Ep. 3 – The Chaos King: The Silver Swordsman’s master is revealed and his plans for Eternia are made clear. He wants the Star Seed beneath Castle Grayskull, but what can the Sorceress bring to the party for our new cast of heroes?

Later this season…

Ep. 4 – The Legends: After the Sorceress exhausted her energy last episode to empower the heroes, Evil Lyn and Marzo attack Castle Grayskull. And is that… Prince Adam?

Ep. 5 – The Prodigal Son: With Prince Adam back at the Palace all seems well, and Orko finally leaves Grayskull to investigate. Before Orko can make any sense of it Skeletor returns out of nowhere when Beast Man attempts to breach the Palace walls.

Ep. 6 – The Machine Messiah: Unknown to Zodak and his cosmic allies, an entity makes itself known on Eternia and seemingly returns He-Man. Who is man, and who is machine? And what did it do to Tri-Clops?

Rules:

1.) No back-to-back posting. Posting will be restricted to 3-4 posts per player per Episode. Larger storylines will have higher post caps as well as Character-centric Eps.

2.) PAY ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND SET-UPS!!

3.) Make sense. If we can't make heads or tails of your posts they're likely to get skipped over.

4.) Get permission before using another player's character in your posts if it involves changing the scene or making actions. Everybody will take beatings in this game in battle however, so don't get pissed if you get punched or blasted into a wall by the bad guys! Namely me or the Co-GM controlling the badguys...

5.) Problems with the game or players should be sent directly to me or the Co-GM through PM's. I don't want a bunch of bickering in the OOC. And I don't particularly like it when some random argument costs the game players and story potential. So don't be dicks to each other, just send your concerns to us.

6.) Abandoned characters will be used as NPC's or killed off within the context of the story.

7.) “I was waiting for [insert player/character] to make a move” is not how this game is played.

8.) There is no rule #8.

9.) My word is law.

10.) Obey the law.

11.) In the event that I'm offline for any period of time, the Co-GM [none ATM] will take control and HIS/HER word will then be law.

Episode 1 – the Beginning

The Royal Palace…

King Randor sat upon his throne questioning the whereabouts of Prince Adam when an alarm rang out within the palace walls. Man-At-Arms, also called Duncan, came into the throne room after passing the royal guards stationed by the doorway.

“It’s Lord Masque. There’s several shadow serpents just outside of the city walls, however Masque himself is riding a shadow dragon.” Duncan explained removing his helmet and revealing the manliest of mustaches.

“Can the Palace defenses hold him off?” the King asked.

“Many of the Royal Guard along with Teela and Ram Man are on the edge of the city taking on the serpents. Mecha-Neck is seeing over the turrets and trying to take the dragon out of the air. I put out a call to all of the former Masters just in case, although many of them haven’t responded recently.” Duncan continued explaining.

Ten Minutes Earlier…

“Masters, this is Man-At-Arms. The Royal Palace is under attack. Lord Masque has returned. Repeat, Lord Masque has returned!” Duncan said into some sort of communications device that looked super advanced but really only had basic functions. He moved to another table in his workshop where there was another smaller device that was hand held and not jacked into a table or wall. The Man-At-Arms looked at the device and spoke.

“Malcom? The palace is under attack. I could use your help, brother.”

The bearded hero heard the device from across his home. He essentially lived in a bachelor’s tree house deep within the forests outside of the city walls. He could hear the dragon in the sky as well.

Roughly two miles away near the city walls Teela and Ram Man fought the shadow serpents, one of which was trying to squeeze the life out of one of the Royal Guards.

Ah I'll throw in some official interest finally. It'll take me a bit to get a CS up but I'll get to stepping with it

@rocketrobie2

Lmk if you want me to work you up an avatar/micro!

Masters of the Universe - Legends of Grayskull
