The story is, is that there is a seperate Time/space Continuum inside the NSverse, contained within the one we normally operate in. don't ask me the science behind it, and I won't have to make something up. Anyways, this TSC contains only one Planet, twice the size of Jupiter. That's ALL it contains, besides a small star and some moons. Go more than one light year away, and you leave its STC.

This world is called Ohm, and its name is Legendary among even Legends. It is thought to be a story, and nothing more, because no one has ever been able to find Ohm. Of course, how can you? The Universe is big, and Ohm's STC could be anywhere.

Despite that factor, it soon shows itself, in Andromeda.

Ohm is said to be a world filled with enough treasure to buy anything, even a nation. It is said to have weapons so destructive, that to use them would cause the downfall of civilization. It is said to contain the Elixer of Life, which contains all the secrets of life and immortality.

But most importantly, It is said to contain The Gate of Divinity. The Gate of Divinity is said to be able to grant those who step through it anything they desire, anything.

So, anyone and everyone could have a reason to Join.

when people get to Ohm, they will find native people that are similar to the indeginous peoples that were found in North America when Europe settled north and south America, and then later, when America pushed west.

They will also find a massive Temple, that leads into the depths of Ohm, where the treasures are. Of course, The Temple and Depths of Ohm change layout every few minutes, and there are tricks, there are traps, there are creatures and things lurking within.

There are also, within this world, Magic and gods, so beware, science won't always help you.

You can get to Om in any manner you think of. You just can't appear inside the temple, because the Temple is sealed shut against all outside force. That means even players who don't have space ships can explore the massive Temple of Om.

Can you find the Lost Treasures of Ohm?

Hmm, sounds interesting. I may join. May even send a representative from my good side (ie, that of the Empress) and one from the RCO.

As for the 'insides of the temple changing' bit, IMHO, someone's been watching AVP too much.

As for the 'insides of the temple changing' bit, IMHO, someone's been watching AVP too much.

I actually did that Temple changing bit, because I personally have trouble keeping a straight layout. Even mapped out a castle once for an RP here, and the map wasn't followed. I do manage to keep things reasonable though. Oh yeas, I suppose a Character sheet is in order. Allow me to edit one into the first post.

Character sheet posted

Bump

I'll join. Where do we post character sheets?

Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: Iron Will, Rage, resistant to telepathy as his brain is warped and shattered after millenia of imprisonment.
Fears: None
Strengths: Insanely strong,
Beliefs: National Socialism

:D I'll join. Where do we post character sheets?

Just copy out of my OP, and edit into yours.

As Kajeenith rules Nothing, I will take that to mean you fear him/worship him.
A very reasonable fear indeed. I've seen nothing. Its quite a scary sight. :D

Anyways, for fears you can put very hard to scare. And Beliefs can be set to Aethiest.

I believe Everyone has a fear, even if they don't know/realise/admit to what it is. Like say I'm scared of heigths, but I won't admit to it. Therefore I put on a front that I'm not afraid of anything. Or you could have a conditional fear, like a fear of zombies, but only in dark places, or something like that.

Alright, a pair of Tanks. I'm gonna enjoy this! Confirmed.
What is Primo?

The Primo is the leader of the Atopian Union of Fascists and the Atopian nation. An amalgamtion of Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Mao, Antonio Primo de Rivera and Mosely.

Oh, so basicly your after the big star system destroying weapons.

If only they still worked. Oh well, but the things you can learn from them should suffeciently advance your knowledge of science well enough to come up with a terrifying new weapon to combat the Primo with.

See, System destroyers aren't likely to be accepted, so this way you get what you want and still have the honor of claiming the find of an FT Superweapon.

Any objections to multiple characters(unrelated to each other)?

Wait, I don't want to combat the Primo. The Primo is my character's Leader, her Guiding Light! Any superweapons or tech she finds will be examined and absorbed by her suit's AI. hopefully.

Ri-an, just checking, this is set in FT, right?

I'm pretty sure it's FT!

By the way, this is Lt.Col Svetranova out of her armoured suit (seen in the background).

http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c51/GenSteiner/untitled.jpg

She's carrying her service pistol - a directed energy weapon roughly comparable to the power of an E-11 from Star Wars (ie. powerful!) - and wearing her pilot's undersuit. The power armour is, as you can see, somewhat large. :p

Character's name: Marucs Nekaru
description or link to pic: Tall, thin, looks Asian. Has red eyes, and is generally a gigantic red robe. Carries two lightsabers.
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: Enhanced Speed, his eyes can predict enemy attacks and cast illusions. Also can control air.
Fears: Heights
Strengths: A total lack of emotion, and the ability to carry out plans. Is highly dedicated to his goals.
Beliefs: I exist for myself. I exist to prove I am the greatest. And I exist to destroy all who will oppose my goals.
What do they hope to find in Om?: Power

Any objections to multiple characters(unrelated to each other)?

I'm gonna cap it at five, to prevent monopolization of the RP.

Wait, I don't want to combat the Primo. The Primo is my character's Leader, her Guiding Light! Any superweapons or tech she finds will be examined and absorbed by her suit's AI. hopefully.

I see. Some, yes. Others, no.

Ri-an, just checking, this is set in FT, right?

Mostly, but you know me, I'm not entirely FT. Its nothing you can't handle though. Due to Environmental Influences, Gods are abnormally weak against most weapons. So, a good strategist should have no problem killing one.

Their good things though. When you encounter strong enemies, your close to a treasure. Be it hordes of Gold, Weapons, Knowledge, what have you.

The Strongest of Gods, are found deepest in Om, and Guard the Gate of Divinity. The Weaker ones are closer to the surface, and usually lead armies of weak enemies.

You'll find things in Om to help you out though.

I'm pretty sure it's FT!

Character's name: Johnathon Karver
description or link to pic: 1.9m (6' 3") Short black hair caucasion man, dressed in military fatigues
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: Johnathon is a member of the Bazalonian Special Forces, he is the best infiltrator known in the nation, partly because of his practice skills and also partly becuase of a minor Psionic power where is able to convince specific targets that he is not here. Any blatant action stops this but any otherwise normal "What was that." or "Isn't there something there." would not occur.
Fears: His greatest fear is facing innumerable hordes of enemies with no way of escape
Strengths: Information gathering (observation and extraction if necessary)
Beliefs: Moderate Christian
What do they hope to find in Om?: Uncertain, he will know it when he sees it.
Anything you wish to share about this Character:
Mr Karver infact had no idea about Om's existance he did not even seek after it. However one day he went to bed and found himself near the entrance to the temple. He is currently uncertain wether he is dreaming or has amnesia. Either way a temple like that is just asking to be explored.

Confirmed! If he does not have a ranged weapon such as a gun, then I will make sure he finds the first of the lesser weapons.

Character's name: Unknown--Known Aliases; Michael Grey, Mr. Grey, Johnny Doe, T. Man,That Man, Fat Man, Mr Whispers, and Flowers.

description or link to pic:Michael Grey (http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i311/shalottlilly/gary_oldman.jpg)
Average height
Average Weight
Hair: Dark Brown
Eyes: Grey

Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: Mr. Grey is a powerful telepath in his own right, unfortunately his ability is prmarily latent and manifests itself in a strange and rather unfortunate manner--he leaves no lasting impression on those he encounters--his mental power causes little to no memory of him to be left at all, this can take days to occur depending on the persons intellignece and if Mr Grey is trying to be forgotten...if he is trying to be forgotten and the person is weak minded they may forget who he is in mid conversation and also completely forget the conversation. Appearently Mr. Grey can inhibit the effect of his power on up to three at a time, it takes no effort but it can never be more then three, even if he isnt trying this effect still occurs- The most common effect is that people remember vaguely speaking to some man about some thing, but all remains foggy, Mr. Grey is often associated with Deja-Vu--making for a very lonely life for Mr. Grey.

An ability which appears to be completely unrelated to Mr. Greys latent telepathic ability is what is known as sight-slipping. Mr.Grey can cause himself to go unoticed visually and aurally. He literally becomes invisible when veiwed form head on, if one looks directly at him he will "slip" out of veiw.
This effect however does not seem to stop periphery contact...he is the person you see form the corner of your eye--as well aurally the echo of the foot fall or the creaking of floor boards are heard but not his actual footsteps.
An unintended side effect is that when one attempts to "focus" through this effect or concentrate on him nausea, dizziness, and imbalance can occur---these effects seem more related to the mental fortitude of the person rather then physical prowess.

Fears: Not Knowing, being alone(oddly he often finds himself alone), wide open spaces, bright light

Strengths:unnaturally intuitive(while this appears to be merely a function of intellect it remains unclear if there is not something else behind it), Highly IntelligentMr. Grey has an obsession with gathering knowledge of any kind, Resiliant Constitution, High Endurance

Beliefs: Pragmatist. Knowledge is Power.

What do they hope to find in Om?: Knowledge

Anything you wish to share about this Character:
Mr. Grey is neither good nor evil perse', he is as stated above a pragmatist obsessed with information.
While his physical prowess is that of a healthy male of his size, his endurance and consitution are superhuman, though this is actually from what amounts to his living as an aesthetic, Mr. Grey is more like monk then anything else.
Devotion to knowledge has led him down many dark paths.
An experienced and efficient killer, Mr Grey is known to earn his living through extracting informantion and eliminating market competition for others.
His intricate knowledge of physiology, weapons, fighting, and a host of other applicable items makes for Mr. greys lack of physical prowess.

Skibereen, how would 'sight-slipping' effect things that pick up non-visible light, like machines, or magic rather than mental abilities?

Confirmed!

Perhaps, I'll give Mr. Grey the gift of a friend who won't forget about him, ending his lonliness.

The sight slipping effects the observer, so if the eye piece is strapped to some ones head it would still effect the observer--but like film or whatever wouldnt do anything....he would just look like an average guy.

Also I am think the big crazy guy with mostly machine body would be essentially immune becuase of being so mechanical and not quite stable mentally.

The sight slipping ultimately is effecting the mind of observer--so the medium really is unimportant.

EDIT
Magic, well it would depend on if the user had to actually concentrate on Mr.Grey for it to work---like looking at an heat image of him through a heat scope will have the same effect ...and so would say a crystal ball...as both require one to focus on him or his image.

But there always exceptions....thats the point though.

So basically indirect or non-biological observation = generally sees
Direct or biological observation = generally doesn't?

And Mr. Grey will go practicly unnoticed, until he reaches the layer of Temple that is beneath the Outer temples, and above The Depths of Om. that's when the things in Om will have a strong enough mind to defeat Mr. Grey's two powers. Heck, even some of the traps won't spring because of his ability.

Tomorrow I'm going to whip out a general guide to the some of the things in Om. this is OOC knowledge, so using them ICly without learning them ICly, is essential cheating. I'm just doing it as a method of letting you know what's up.

Besides, The Temple of Om contains an entire world. I have Two Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manuels. I'm going to look up some Psionic things online, in addition to things of my own invention and dream.

I will post my character at some later time, after I finish with a couple other things. It will be one of my Ta'Nar and Ri-an knows what that means.

Hmm... Maybe I'll add a few more DnD type attributes to give a better idea of how certain MM abilities might convert...

Going the exact opposite direction of everyone else - Steampunk FTW!

Character's name: Frederick Percival Orwell
Description: Frederick, at a glance, looks remarkably out of place in a galaxy where supersoldiers are found on every street corner, peddling cheap trinkets*. Frederick is a fairly tall man, with brown hair and piercing blue eyes. His padded leather jacket and brass goggles serves only to excarberate his asynchronous appearance, and has frequently landed him in trouble with the super soldiers seemingly found in every bar.
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: Years of avoiding trouble and contesting with supersoldiers has given Frederick a keen sense for avoiding trouble, and is surprisingly swift and agile, even against those who are genetically or cybernetically augmented for speed.
Fears: Being Trapped
Strengths: Exceptionally swift, good intuition
Beliefs: Survivalist, "I'm alive, and that's what counts."
What do they hope to find in Om?: A way to end the war ravaging his homeworld.

Items of Note: 8mm Bolt Action Rifle, Distinctive Brass Goggles, Leather Rebreather mask

Strength: 10

Intelligence: 11

Sorry about the delay. Forgot I still had to do characters for this:

RCO Chracter:
Character's name: Isaak Fernando von Kämpfer (Panzer Magier)
description or link to pic:
http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o293/True_Human_Empire/Character%20Pics/isaak.jpg
Species: Methuselah
Gender: Male
AKA: Magician
Codename: Panzermagier (German for "Armor Magician", sometimes wrongly translated as "Tank" Magician)
Other name: Isaac Butler
Ranking: 9=2 'Magus, Order of the Magi'
Power: Lost technology, summoning monsters from another dimension, several spells for attack and defense (such as Arrow of Belial, Sword of Beelzebub - where he cuts his enemies in pieces with invisible threads -, or the "Asmodai" - an almost indestructable power shield)
Background: Most of his past and exact powers is unknown. He used to study at London University under the name Isaac Butler, and was involved in an incident which killed William's fiancee and led them both to being exspelled from university. Since he met Cain, Isaak is taking care of his regeneration and is leading the Orden together with him, though his true motives are unknown.
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: See above.
Fears: Unkown.
Strengths: He's a Methuselah, plus see above.
Beliefs: That the RCO is infalliable.
What do they hope to find in Om?: Doesn't really care, as long as it prooves a pro for the RCO.
Anything you wish to share about this Character: Isaak is one of the biggest stuck up jerks you will see in the RCO. He has no emotions what-so-ever, just follows orders and isn't easily surprised.
It is said that he and William used to go to the same school.
Isaak uses magic to defend himself and to fight. He can also summon and shape-shift, making it hard for people to find or defeat him.

Imperial Character:
Character's name: Astharoshe Asran/Athrun (Duchess of Odessa)
description or link to pic:
http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o293/True_Human_Empire/Character%20Pics/astharoshe.jpg
Title: Duchess of Kiev
Power: Spear of Gae Bolg (an extendable spear that fires highly explosive bolts of blue energy)
Status: Vincountess Odessa of the Empire
Species: Methuselah
Gender: Female
Background: Though only from a lower noble class, she is an inspector in the Empire and was sent after the criminal Enderles Kudza. On this mission, she got to know Father Abel Nightroad in Venice as she cooperated with him. This was the first step to peace treaties between the Vatican and the Empire, which is why she is respected by Augusta Vradica. A former red-head, the grief as her partner was murdered in front of her eyes caused her hair to turn white, except for one red strand on her forehead.
Fears: Unknown.
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: See above.
Strengths: She's a Methuselah and a Hunter, so don't get on her bad side. Plus, see above.
Beliefs: She believes that the Empress's efforts at keeping the nation of Trinity Blood unified and at peace mustn't go to waste.
What do they hope to find in Om?: Anything capable of advancing the Empire's technological state so it can stand on its own two feet much easier.
Anything you wish to share about this Character: First sent to investigate an incident suspected to be connected to a vampire mass murderer and reluctantly partnered with Abel, Astharoshe is a no-nonsense, direct person who holds a low opinion of humans. After working with Abel, however, she changes her views and becomes his ally. She fights with a large rod that can extend on her command and fires massive bolts of energy from its tip.
Astharoshe is easily ticked off, she's loud and can curse in Rumanian. Even though she thinks Abel is an idiot sometimes she thinks he's okay.

Note: As I'm in a hurry to finish getting ready for my class today, I'll have to edit the pics in later.

EDIT: I've added the character pics.
Also, I will be brining along cannon fodder troops as I've got future plans for these two main ones. Ri-an, any limit on number of cannon fodder?
@Ri-an: To make things easier, do you think you could edit your OP to include direct links to each of our character posts so we can find them easier if we need to edit or reference something from them?

So basically indirect or non-biological observation = generally sees
Direct or biological observation = generally doesn't?

Yeah. But, the veiwing must be direct...hence he is not invisible and one is intelligent to figure out the effect would be able to use periphery to observe him...but as we all know keeping somethign in your peripheral vision and not into your direct vision is difficult.

Also I was thinking that your Fallen Angel would not be effected by Mr. Grey's abilities.

Also I am think the big crazy guy with mostly machine body would be essentially immune becuase of being so mechanical and not quite stable mentally.

Huzzah! For once, Beckenbauer's insanity will be an asset rather than a severe hinderance.

I feel rather left out in that Beckenbauer has no special magic powers, but then again he's been raised from the dead twice so I can't complain. Anyone here have any special prejudice against the undead?

Only about half the creatures in Om, but they usually tend to complain in a violent offensive manner that does not involve words, and involves a variety of weapons, powers and attacks. :D

http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o293/True_Human_Empire/Character%20Pics/isaak.jpg
Species: Methuselah
Gender: Male
AKA: Magician
Codename: Panzermagier (German for "Armor Magician", sometimes wrongly translated as "Tank" Magician)
Other name: Isaac Butler
Ranking: 9=2 'Magus, Order of the Magi'
Power: Lost technology, summoning monsters from another dimension, several spells for attack and defense (such as Arrow of Belial, Sword of Beelzebub - where he cuts his enemies in pieces with invisible threads -, or the "Asmodai" - an almost indestructable power shield)
Background: Most of his past and exact powers is unknown. He used to study at London University under the name Isaac Butler, and was involved in an incident which killed William's fiancee and led them both to being exspelled from university. Since he met Cain, Isaak is taking care of his regeneration and is leading the Orden together with him, though his true motives are unknown.
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: See above.
Fears: Unkown.
Strengths: He's a Methuselah, plus see above.
Beliefs: That the RCO is infalliable.
What do they hope to find in Om?: Doesn't really care, as long as it prooves a pro for the RCO.
Anything you wish to share about this Character: Isaak is one of the biggest stuck up jerks you will see in the RCO. He has no emotions what-so-ever, just follows orders and isn't easily surprised.
It is said that he and William used to go to the same school.
Isaak uses magic to defend himself and to fight. He can also summon and shape-shift, making it hard for people to find or defeat him.

Imperial Character:
Character's name: Astharoshe Asran/Athrun (Duchess of Odessa)
description or link to pic:
http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o293/True_Human_Empire/Character%20Pics/astharoshe.jpg
Title: Duchess of Kiev
Power: Spear of Gae Bolg (an extendable spear that fires highly explosive bolts of blue energy)
Status: Vincountess Odessa of the Empire
Species: Methuselah
Gender: Female
Background: Though only from a lower noble class, she is an inspector in the Empire and was sent after the criminal Enderles Kudza. On this mission, she got to know Father Abel Nightroad in Venice as she cooperated with him. This was the first step to peace treaties between the Vatican and the Empire, which is why she is respected by Augusta Vradica. A former red-head, the grief as her partner was murdered in front of her eyes caused her hair to turn white, except for one red strand on her forehead.
Fears: Unknown.
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: See above.
Strengths: She's a Methuselah and a Hunter, so don't get on her bad side. Plus, see above.
Beliefs: She believes that the Empress's efforts at keeping the nation of Trinity Blood unified and at peace mustn't go to waste.
What do they hope to find in Om?: Anything capable of advancing the Empire's technological state so it can stand on its own two feet much easier.
Anything you wish to share about this Character: First sent to investigate an incident suspected to be connected to a vampire mass murderer and reluctantly partnered with Abel, Astharoshe is a no-nonsense, direct person who holds a low opinion of humans. After working with Abel, however, she changes her views and becomes his ally. She fights with a large rod that can extend on her command and fires massive bolts of energy from its tip.
Astharoshe is easily ticked off, she's loud and can curse in Rumanian. Even though she thinks Abel is an idiot sometimes she thinks he's okay.

Note: As I'm in a hurry to finish getting ready for my class today, I'll have to edit the pics in later.

EDIT: I've added the character pics.
Also, I will be brining along cannon fodder troops as I've got future plans for these two main ones. Ri-an, any limit on number of cannon fodder?
@Ri-an: To make things easier, do you think you could edit your OP to include direct links to each of our character posts so we can find them easier if we need to edit or reference something from them?

Approved!

And, if you REALLY want me to.

Only about half the creatures in Om, but they usually tend to complain in a violent offensive manner that does not involve words, and involves a variety of weapons, powers and attacks. :D

Oh goody, violence: the universal language

Beckenbauer should have no communication problems then :p

Lol, good thing I picked two of, how should I put this, my more 'aggressive' characters. So, you should get along just fine with which ever one you end up traveling with.

If they end up traveling together. The Temple has many entrances throughout Om, and it isn't always in your best entrances to go in the same path another did. You might just miss out on a treasure. But be warned, your actions will all effect each other.

READ ME!

I'm going to go ahead and start the thread. I will edit the thread into the first post, as well as TG all the members.

Balrogga can still come in, Om is freaking huge. Magic sorcery can still come in if she gets the TG before we finish the story thread, as well as anyone else who wishes to play.

I will also edit the story thread link into here.

The remainder of this thread is to be used for OOC stuff.

I'll make my intro IC post when I get a chance.

Skibereen, check your TG

@Ri-an: Looks like I'm limited by who I don't need to run the Raptor for use as cannon fodder for my Imperial side. Though, the RCO ship is much larger, so is there a max cap on the number?

Ri-an going back over a TG you sent given me a bit more infor about Kajeenith and Om
sign me up for the part you want me for

I'm going to use you Mid-way through as Guardian of the Depths of Om. But, don't go overboard and kill them, just give them a strong Challenge.

Due to The Influences of Om, No God is secure against Mortal Attacks, so Wolf can very Easily be killed.

I'll let you know when to step in and RP Wolf, and Against whom.

But don't kill anyone, leave that for me.

right oh

Yeah. But, the veiwing must be direct...hence he is not invisible and one is intelligent to figure out the effect would be able to use periphery to observe him...but as we all know keeping somethign in your peripheral vision and not into your direct vision is difficult.

Also I was thinking that your Fallen Angel would not be effected by Mr. Grey's abilities.

Would my character's Brigadier-class armoured support suit with it's infra-red, x-ray, short-wave, long-wave, LIDAR/RADAR and various other sensors - all interpreted by a computer AI and then shown on a 360 degree HuD to Lucie, the pilot - be able to see Mr Grey?

I think, for the purposes of story, it should not be able to 'see' him to any significant degree.

On the other hand, Skibereen has already commented that one could target Mr. Grey through a heat (IR) scope, so yes, I suppose you could.

Character's name: Morganna Aarisbane

Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: Standard Ta’Nar abilities (Psionics, Meta-Magics, Incorporeal)
Fears: Failing her Emperor
Strengths: She is a Ta’Nar
Beliefs: She WILL succeed if she uses her talents and abilities properly as warranted by the current situation.
What do they hope to find in Om?: A clue to the location of The Overlords
Anything you wish to share about this Character: She is one of the Emperor’s advisors (Tier IV) thus an equal to Galvenor in status and power. She doesn’t use weapons, preferring to trust her own abilities over anything else.

Ri-an, would it be alright if I gave my RCO character a sub-character/assistant kind of guy (your post about alters to all gods got me thinking about a future story line I've been planning (you can probably guess which one))? I would be willing to reduce the number of RCO cannon fodder if need be.

Funny enough, the first Alter your RCO Guys find, IS to the Blood God.

Yes, you can trade one Cannon Fodder for one perma assistant.

Approved. As you can tell, we're not that far in yet. I thought for a moment there you were going to use Galvenore, but of course you can't, he's too weak at the moment. due to your incorpreal ability, your path will contain mostly Magic/Psionic Enemies. It just doesn't make sense to throw Fighters against you, when you'll just pass through their swords. I might even copy The concept of a Ta'nar, and bring out Enemies more suited to what she is.

Yes, the suit could...but lucie wouldnt be able to look at the monitor.
As she is the observer.
If she went back over her records the next day she would say "Oh, there is a guy there. Man, that was a horrible headache, vertigo, migraine"...whatever she might chalk it up too. She is ordinary..perse' so it would effect her.
However it is the effect on memory that he has little control over, the sight slipping effect is completely voluntary, so if he is just walking along....not using it, well he is just an ordinary looking guy...very ordinary.

The sight slipping is what he can control either as an area effect...anyone putting their "eyes" on him....or he can single out individuals.

Normally when I've used him before he also carries halucinagens and technological obscuration devices to augment his ability...I felt that would be up to Rian if I did that here...I thought olives would be much more interesting piece of equipment....off to post ICly..

EDIT:
Also, obviously something completely mechanical like the targeting system on ship would not be effected at all as long as it was autonomous....he isnt a divine being...he is just reeeeeally difficult to notice or remember.

Not all my attacks need sight. Some can attack just on smell alone.

His abilities effect the perception of him aurally and visibly...I have never RP'd him being able to effect his opponents ability to scent him...I can if want me to for story continuity ...but I think the most interesting thing about "powers" are their weak points.

Mr. Grey considers his real abilityto be his intuitive nature(intuition/instinct) and his intellect....in my first post he refers to his other abilities(being forgotten nearly immediately and being practically invisible) as sideshow tricks...his deadliest weapon is his mind.

I didnt want a wankalicious guy....if you notice is basically Super Ordinary.

So plain you dont see him, so plain if you do see him you forget it five minutes later...or even in the middle of ordinary conversation with him you forget you were talking to him.

He is guy you see everyday out in public...that guy.

OOC: That would be fun, is if Bazalonia kept "Discovering" Mr. Grey every few posts. :p

Anyways, my point was, was that scent IS the weak point, and sooner or later, your going to run into such creatures. But the Temple itself, is alive. It sees Mr. Grey, which was my point with the I see you on the wall. The Temple is an Anomally, as I'll go along with on Balrogga's decent into Om. Of course, Everyone's going to see why. Oh boy your all going to see why.

Can I just check that my theory about the ghost being made of energy, and thus having a quantum signature, is right?

If not we're pretty fucked as I don't think either of us have silver weapons :D

@Atopiana: What kind of energy? Just curious.

Ectoplasm, but if you go through the tunnel, that won't matter. The Ghost will adopt a form you two are more suited for dealing with. I'm in no way promising it'll be easy, but you CAN beat it to death with your armor.

Ri-an, did you miss my latest post (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12227071&postcount=83), or have I missed yours?

Saw it, coulda sworn I had replied, was probably hallucenating instead.

Ah, memory is a fickled thing.

Replied now.

@Atopiana: What kind of energy? Just curious.

Well, it doesn't really matter. Any energy will have a signature at the quantum level, I think, and I can use technobabble, handwavium, and other advanced substances, to be able to see/scan/think at the ghostie.

After all, if it exists it has to be either matter or energy or both. :)

Is it too late to join?

Nah, go ahead and post a Character. I'll start you on an Island in the ocean.

Now, when Everyone gets to level 2, THEN it'll be too late.

Well, I kinda planned on crashing an experimental ship on the planet, but ok.

Character's name: T'leen Targ
description or link to pic: Standing in at nearly 4 meters tall, he is massive, even for a Mardukan. His horns are extremely long, greater than average size even for a Mardukan of his advanced years. His left true hand is replaced with a massive prosthetic hook forged of Chromsten. His other three hands are fully functional. He is descended from amphibians, and his skin secretes a mucous like coating. Extreme dryness and extreme cold are both dangerous to him, as the mucous coating prevents minor cuts and injuries, and will dry or freeze in extreme conditions.
Abilities, Magical, Psionic or otherwise: Extremely fast and strong, which is only compounded by his armor. A devotee of the Mardukan God of Fire, though he has never personally called upon the Lord for assistance, he could in theory act as a cleric.
Fears: Extreme cold can render him catatonic, and is rightly feared
Strengths: One suit of experimental Combat Mobile Infantry Armor, extremely strong(home gravity nearly 1.8x earth normal)
Beliefs: Everyone has a price.
What do they hope to find in Om? A way off the planet.

And, I meant Start you off on an Island as in After you arrive in whatever fashion you choose, even crashing the ship, that's where I come in with the environment, The Temple, The Challenges, the things dying to kill you.

Your opening to the Temple, your path, starts on an Island, in the middle of the Ocean.

You WILL find a way off the world. That's the only promise I make.

Looks like a lot has happened while I slept. I guess I'll have to catch up with you all before I make my next IC post.

Rian I can only post once maybe twice a day...I note how far along the IC thread has gotten....

I dont want to ruin the RP for anyone...so if I become a burden let me know.

Work and family require my primary attentions, you do understand.

Also Demon666's character being a Demon I believe would be accorded the same ability to not be effected by my characters "powers" as the angel...of course this is your decision.

But I figure it that way...
Though I also figure those not effected would have no idea the powers even existed.

So with permission I will amend my character post to include a better description of the power and which characters exactly are effected.

Shame you didn't want her, she could have pointed out the dragon's weakness, even made sure you both came out of it alive. She's also studied Life, and Death in over 6 billion realities, over more lifetimes than is really neccessary to post about. She has come to be able to understand them and control them better than anyone else. She's Tough to kill, but IS NOT a fighter. She prefers healing, and keeping people alive.

Kajeenith took his army through the section they have to go through, to reach the Depths of Om. His army is the only decent challenge I can provide, short of using magic they can't combat. And Psionics they can't combat. I tried to give them a greater set of challenges, but they tried to kill the method through which I could do it.

Hey, when I role-play my deranged Fascist state, I act as a deranged Fascist would.

But at least now you know not to antagonise men who are in charge of 270km long super-battleships... ;)

EDIT:

As for 'off our rockers', Storm-General Beckenbauer is clinically insane (wiki his name on the NS Wiki) and has to pass a Difficulty Check 10 to post in a sane manner every time he posts and Lt.Col. Svetranova is very very worried and keyed up. Not as bonkers as the literally insane spinal-column-in-an-armoured-suit that is the Storm-General, but not... fully rational.

Mad and proud, that's what we are! :p Also at a disadvantage as magic appears to do more than 50mm railgun rounds made from DU... *wistful sigh*

Lol, you want someone you don't want to get on the bad-side off, well, I've got three of them in thread as my main characters for this RP. All three of them aren't that fond of humans either (the RCO ones would be quite willing to take yours out for a 'bite', and the Imperial one would talk down and very possibly shoot you if you annoy her.

Should be very interesting if your character encountered one of my groups.

I note you don't like the color red IC'ly. Does that also appy to the red worn by high ranking members of the Vatican? What about the red streak (purely natural) in the Duchess's hair?

As for your ships, you expect me to have any knowledge of your ship base stats? I made sure to work the dimensions and other base stats into the IC and OOC aspects of my posts in the thread you are referring to. Yet, I notice, you had to be prompted to provide any info. Look at my join date. I may dig through old threads for a good read in my spare time, but I'm only one person and can't read all those thousands upon thousands of threads in such little time and continue to be active at the level I am.

Oh, and I thought you were Anarchist and that Skgorria was the Fascist. Me, I'm more of an Aristrocracy(sp?) that will end up in Civil War when I reach a reasonable size of population (got to have enough for me to have the bad guys kill enough for those who were neutral up to that point to rise up and join the good guys before their isn't enough population left for the nation to survive).

Aaand my guy's pretty much someone who you wouldn't think of messing with. Mostly because of his insignificance - there's not much on him that would allow you to single him out as some sort of target. Just plain old unassuming local guy.

You can't hide in your armour forever, if he develops a grudge. :p

I'd love for him to take a can of red spray paint to Svetranova's armour. Bonus points if he manages to get the AI swapped for a Communist one. :D Not really likely though. He's a bit nonconfrontational (having only fired one shot - at a rusty sword, no less.) to do that.

Oh, and I thought you were Anarchist and that Skgorria was the Fascist.

It used to be like that, but years of underhanded skulldudgery on my part created The Atopian Union Of Fascists who overthrew the anarchist government after a bloody civil war in which I had to sacrifice over 300,000 men just to get past his border defences. So he's the fascist, I'm a Nazi. Similar but different - simply put a Jew in front of a Skgorrian or Atopian to observe the differences.

Just a quick generic "me no Nazi statement" - I'm not a RL Nazi, they were all evil sods blah blah blah.

Ri-an, a quick question if I may: do these things from the Ministry of Shadow physically manifest themselves into his greatest fears, or will he just see them as such?

What about the red worn by my Vatican's Cardinals? Or the natural red streak in my Imperial character's hair?

As for what you said in regards to both your nations, understood. Mine is more equal oppurtinity, but does not treat traitors, like the members of the RCO are, to the crown very kindly (the punishment is usually tortured to death unless mitigating circumstances).

Though, I already see differences. Atopia is the trigger happy, agressive, war-mongering, gun loving, paranoid one of your group. You, on the other hand, are more diplomatic in nature.

Ri-an, a quick question if I may: do these things from the Ministry of Shadow physically manifest themselves into his greatest fears, or will he just see them as such?

A bit of both.

Their based on man's fear of the unknown, and the rather common fear of darkness, night, and things that go bump in the night.

I know not everyone shares the same fears, but that's where their idea came from, which is why they have the power of fear.

A voice in the darkness could be anything. All I've shown of their true form, is their white Cat like eyes. Just seven pairs of white slits.

Don't worry though, Their going to manifest into seven Gears, as from the Game Xenogears, only taking your IC hatred of Communism into account, their going to appear to have come from Russia during the heighth of Communism, representing the seven greatest Communists of all time. To add insult to injury, their going to burn your flags.

Lol, I would pay to see that. I'll bring the spray paint if needed.

Um, you do realise that Atopians don't have violent siezures when they see the colour red? :p

Though, I already see differences. Atopia is the trigger happy, agressive, war-mongering, gun loving, paranoid one of your group. You, on the other hand, are more diplomatic in nature.

Urm... not normally, no, you've just met a few of the more violent Atopians. ;)

:p Also at a disadvantage as magic appears to do more than 50mm railgun rounds made from DU... *wistful sigh*

So far my guy has a hook and a machete. You both lose. Well and the shield of uberbashing, but that's beside the point.

When you say "hook", I envision the one the captain of the same name employed in the place of a hand.

For the correct image, what is your hook?

No, shield.

Olives, cigarettes, and business casual.

And yes, I am at this very moment eating olives, smoking a cigarette I just went from Khakis to sweats and I have a grey button down no tie on.

The whiskey is in the freezer.

EDIT:
This is Skibereen.

When you say "hook", I envision the one the captain of the same name employed in the place of a hand.

For the correct image, what is your hook?

That would be the general idea. More on the line of a Khopesh or Sickle-sword though. It's a longish blade, rather broad in cross section, with an extremely sharp monomol edge on the inner and outer curves. It's technically a hook, but has characteristics of a sword, and a sickle as well.

OK, thanks. I can now banish the picture of Captain Hook with an Ageas sheild.

"You missed again Pan."




Just a word of warning, don't scratch any itches...

Hakurabi, look for post 406 in the other thread. Jolt did the time warp again. That's where it went.
It moved reply before mine, so I never saw it.

I just thought of something that might lead to an amusing situation, if Maxim,somewhere along the way, meets something along the lines of a succubus.

That's funny, he Was going to meet an Incubus of himself. But a succubus is also good.

I was joking, obviously it was over your head and below your knees.

Good choice, you took the Dragon Form.

Well, I could have gone with Dragon Aegis Shield of Uberbashing... But Shield of Uberbashing suits me for now. Since ye olde planar surface to the face is a great weapon.

BTW TB. Would you object if I made an appearance to back CW against the DS? As is my tendency. Sith fleet shows up, Solari fleet shows up. Things die, we all go away when Sith has a fit and decides to start over.

In the Salvaging the Beast thread? I wouldn't mind. I'm just a helpless unarmed civilian fleet taken prisoner.

Dang it. Solarin, the fprums are playing up. I responded to your post, 120, but mine got put above yours, 119.

I'd also like to ad that you CAN open the door if you want.

Yeah, but it's kinda up to TB. CW pretty well oked it already.

BTW, @ TB, could you get on MSN as a favor to me and CW?

I kinda editted my post on the IC thread. Go for broke with ambushes and such.

Well, the final decision is CW's, of course. I'll wait to say anything as my head is too far asleep to think on it right now. TBH, though, I don't really have a problem. I may be on semi-friendly terms with Chrono (no embassy yet, but friendly enough for my purposes), and I know US is his ally, but US isn't exactly making a good IC first impression on me.

OK.

Lol, already did a while back. You probably remember.

@Ri-an: I've been thinking of an idea regarding my characters. I'll get on IM later and talk with you about it after I get back from class after 1200 hours.

General Question:

After we get to The Lost Treasures of Om, (The Armoury) there is one last battle before Kajeenith and The Gate of Divinity.

Would you rather:

Fight an epicly huge army

OR

Fight Bahamut and Tiamet.

Just tell me what your choice is.

so who will call Wolf to fight

so who will call Wolf to fight

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to forget. I'll make it up later, I promise.

Lots of people make Nekaru happy.

Target practice is win.

Epicly huge army methinks, would be jolly fun :D

3 more army votes gains majority win.

Dragon be good against multiple foes *nod*

(vote for Army)

3 more army votes gains majority win.

I'm more or less indifferent as to which foe(s) are fought.

Due to Trinity Blood being deleted, those characters will be no more, we'll "Find them" later.

Also The final decision has been cast. Horrendously huge army it is. Seriously though, the Dragon Gods would have been easier.

Due to Trinity Blood being deleted, those characters will be no more, we'll "Find them" later.

How the hell did that happen? :confused: He seemed a fairly level-headed guy...

Ah well, onto horrific carnage +1 :D

Damn, oh well.

Ri-An, that was a truly inspiring speech. I thought it kicked ass, and Beckenbauer would've been the first to rally to the cause if someone hadn't spray-painted him in the colour of his arch-enemies :p

He might take objection to my character's wings/hair as they both have red in them(if he's as rabidly anti-red as he seems)

I just really wanted some sort of payback for having him painted that way. If he started trying to kill EVERYTHING red then this RP would be rather hindered, so I will just conveniently forget about it this time and write it off as a part of his brain that doesn't work at the moment :p

He was SQ He got banned for being DOS.

Thanks both of you, and sorry for the nerd joke if anyone took offense. :)

i like to know is how they know it was him

IP check?

i like to know is how they know it was him

They same way they proved it was him the other...42 times? Anyway... It's him. He's been banned again, and II is once again safe from rampant retardation and incompetence.

IP check?

who think of checking it

who think of checking it

Myself and others suggested it to the Moderators. What does it matter? He earned his DOS. And since he shares the magical dormroom that holds 40 odd people and at least 2 of SQs family members... Survey says it's SQ.

just never guess it thats all

What had he done? :confused:

I'll let Miehm explain the why, mainly because he can explain it so much more colorfully than I can.

However, The Mods have other tools besides IP checks as well, that they can use.

What had he done? :confused:

You would prefer the long version, or the short version? The long version takes several pages in MS Word, and a few hours to type up. The short version is that he was an argumentative, incompetent, stupid, wanky, ST fanboi, who enjoyed arguing with everyone, had no ability to debate, and thought that nitpicking made for good RP. He finally argued too much, flamed several people, and got baned. He was then put on DOS for having...42 puppets? Some obscene number.

Ahhh...

Well, fair go. Any road, are we killing huge numbers of cannon fodder or are we up against an army of demigods?

Ahhh...

The army is hard, but far from Demi-god.
Some of the soldiers will be from Warfare's Super Army. Warfare being the good brother of Kajeenith. They have Regeneration, and slowly heal. They also have very good defences and are quick. They have weapons that can become any weapon. It sounds difficult, but it really isn't. Say you shot 100,000 thousand in a single round.

10,000 would defelct

10,000 would be wounded, but Regeneration would heal.

20,000 would be seriously wounded, fall back and let regneration heal.

10,000 will be only lightly wounded with scratches and dents in the armor, but Regneration will heal the Second Skin armor.

50,000 will die right then and there.

Scale it how you will but that's the general break up.

Also within this army, will be members of Kajeenith's trrifying Void Army.

Some human, but the rest, will be made of various creatures.

They take twice as many hits as a standerd army to kill.

The first hit, if its strong enough, shatters the Void armor. Though you cannot see it normally, a strong hit will shatter The Void shell around them. That you can see.

Then another really strong shot to kill them.

But that's just for humans. Some creatures require more, some less. It all depends on the creature.

thats some army

Hmm, goodness and fun.

Sorry I haven't been online since Wednesday. I was sick yesterday and never made it anywhere near a computer, much less online...

I'll give a rundown of what all the various guns can do when I post next. Mostly they shoot fast and make large explosions. I'm sure a few will even be recognizable to anime or SF fans.

an don't forget you said you going to use Wolf

I apologize for my absence.
Other comitments took me away from the boards.

As they are likely to do so again...I suggest killing me.
I will not be able to dedicate the time I feel this particular thread deserves...short answers do not always mean ones not thought out, I however commend the idea of this particular Character RP and I look forward to seeing another one again soon...or perhaps reintroducing a new character to this one later when my schedule is opened up a bit...war RPs are easy...Chracter RPs are much more interesting.
Thank you.
