Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-04-23 10:28:08 (edited 2012-04-23 18:25:24)

Edit: @Toyumi - That's alright. I enjoy having you in my RP's, but I know that you won't be in every RP I publish. I pass on a lot of RP's due to having no interest in them, even when they are created by people I consider friends here on Gendou. As for Pokemon, it's only going to take one post for my gym battle and return to Adele's house. I'm not sure how Grey will want to do it, but I'm going to opt to summarize this gym battle as opposed to create a big wall of text. @All - Here is my proposed RP idea based off of White Knight Chronicles. I ended up relying on more elements from the games than I originally intended, so I may go back and change the background story a bit. If anyone from the RP'ers United club wants to join, then now is your chance to claim a particular Knight. Don't worry about the character profiles and stuff for now. Basically, I'm posting it here first so that club members will get first dibs on the Knight characters before I post it in Gendou City and open it up to anyone. There are still a few details to work out, but it won't change significantly. I also want to see if it is worth posting this in Gendou City. I only have two people interested so far by the looks of it, so we'll see if having the details and plot up will attract a few more (This is also why you shouldn't go spending your time on profiles just yet). RP Layout Fayre Thousands of years ago, two major empires fought for control over the land using powerful beings called 'Knights'. The knights were created by a neutral country within the land of Fayre in hopes that they would bring an end to the constant war. Each empire received three Knights from the neutral country which initially resulted in a massive increase in bloodshed. After a few short months however, the war settled to a stalemate. The problem for both empires was that the Knights were evenly matched, unable to strike the decisive blow against one of their counterparts. Military leaders from both empires also became fearful of launching conventional attacks due to the constant threat that a Knight might be deployed against them. Neither empire was sure of how to handle the other's Knights, and they were capable of too much destruction to be used carelessly. What's more, the Knight's pactmakers had been chosen by the neutral country, and although they were loyal to their homelands, none of them enjoyed the fighting. Once a person had formed a pact with the spirit of the Knight, its power could only be used by that person. The only way that the pact could be broken and a new one formed is for the current pactmaker to die. Of course, the empires were not made aware of this fact, so they were unable to replace anyone that would not follow their orders. As time passed, the battles eventually stopped and an uneasy peace was reached. The empires shifted their focus to internal affairs as the Knights acted as a deterrent to war. The pactmakers later went into seclusion in secret and eventually passed away due to old age and natural causes. By the time this had happened however, both empires had seen new rulers rise to throne and the majority of the population were doing their best to forget about the existence of the Knights. ------- In the present, the two ancient empires still exist to some extent, but the Knights have since become legends. Several countries are now beginning to unite under the old banner of one of the empires, and fears are growing that war could break out at any moment. Whatsmore, the neutral country that was stated in legends to have brought about the end of the war now seems to be actively supporting it. The country's decendents have created a way for people to be transformed into large monsters called 'Gigas'. The country has also partially aligned itself with one of the empires in hopes that it can get support to expand its territory. Meanwhile, the other countries are banding together out of fear of invasion. This has set the stage for another bloody war to erupt. -Rules- -All 'RP Masters Guide to RP'ing' rules and guidlines apply (Godmodding, auto-hitting, etc). -Magic is in this RP, but it is not terribly effective. You can have stuff like fireballs, icicle spikes and things like that, but the range is more limited to single targets and cannot be combined with moves (in other words, characters have to actually cast Magic. You don't just use it with a flick of the wrist). -Characters are a bit more athletic in this RP than normal, but please limit that acrobatics as much as possible. Characters aren't able to leap off of walls and ceilings and things of that nature. -Due to the nature of the Knights, if you decide to drop out of the RP (or are otherwise absent without reason for too long) I will have to kill off your character. As stated in the plot, a Knight can only have one pactmaker, so in order for someone else to use the knight the current pactmaker has to die. If you do not post for too long I will be sending a PM to check on your participation. If you decide not to continue or I do not get an answer after a few days, then I'll kill off your character so that someone else can join the RP. (If you have a reason then that is fine. I can understand if you haven't had the time or are busy with something.) -The Knights are quite large (roughly 7 meters tall), so if the characters are inside tight spaces then you will be unable to transform. This is pretty straightforward for the most part. I will also make sure to state in my location tags if the area is too small for transformation by using {Restricted}, however you should always use common sense for your characters location. -Knights- Knights are first come, first served. The artifact that is used to transform is set, so you are not able to pick it yourself. This is an example of what the transformation looks like, if you really want to get an idea. Lunar Knight - Reserved by Jonathon -Ark: Sword/Scabbard attached to a shield. -Activation: Holds sword sideways with shield facing out and draws sword from scabbard Dragon Knight -Ark: Arm-Guard -Activation: Pactmaker holds up their arm with their forearm facing out, then places the arm-guard on (which automatically closes around the arm). Crimson Maiden (Female Character Only) -Ark: Choker -Activation: Pactmaker holds the Ark to their neck and the choker automatically clips around their neck. Frost Knight -Ark: Mask -Activation: Pactmaker simply puts the mask on their face. Emerald Knight (Female Character Only) -Ark: Belt -Activation: Pactmaker swings the belt around their waist and clips the ends together. Solar Knight -Ark: Helmet -Activation: Pactmaker places helmet on their head. -Terminology- Pactmaker - A person who has picked up an Ark and created a pact with the Knight's spirit. Ark - An artifact that allows the Pactmaker to transform into their respective Knight. The Pactmaker focuses on the Knight to make the Ark appear, then says 'Verto' before activating it. Each Knight has a unique Ark. Once someone creates a pact with the spirit of the Knight, the Ark is bonded to the person and will only appear in a physical form when the Pactmaker attempts to transform. When the Pactmaker dies, the Ark will remain in physical form until someone else picks it up and creates a new pact. Knight - Large ancient warriors that were once used to stablize a long and bloody war, eventually creating a fragile stalemate. They were created by a neutral country during the war. They are essentially spirits from another world bound to special crafted objects in order to harness their power. The method by which this was accomplished remains a mystery, but it has been impossible to replicate ever since. Even the ancestors of the neutral country are unaware of the process involved. Gigas - Large beasts created by the neutral country using a process similar to that of creating the Knights. Unlike the Knights, the Gigas are bound to cards and can be used by anyone. The user simply holds up the card and says 'Adveni' to transform. However, once a person transforms into a Gigas they are unable to revert to a human form due to the flawed process used in a Gigas' creation. Although the beasts are believed to have been summoned from the same world as the Knights, they are more feral and less intelligent than the Knights. The user will quickly lose their human nature and become more animalistic. This means that Gigas' which have transformed recently are more careful and better tradtional fighters, but as time goes on they will become more aggressive and more likely to fight to the death. Well trained mages are capable of retaining command over the Gigas, which allows them to be used for military purposes. Gigas are roughly the same size as a Knight, but most are not quite as powerful as a one. Their strength can change depending on the user. Imeldan Empire - One of the two Empires that was part of the ancient war. The neutral country provided them with the Crimson Maiden, Lunar Knight and Dragon Knight. The Imeldan Empire is largely considered by historians to have been the agressor in the war. After the introduction of the Knights, they devoted most of their efforts to assassinating the Pactmakers of the Daedalos Knights. All of the assassination attempts were foiled well in advance, so the Imeldan Empire never actually came close to succeeding. Daedalos Empire - One of the two Empires that was part of the ancient war. The neutral country provided them with the Frost Knight, Solar Knight and Emerald Knight. The Daedalos Empire is considered by historians to have prolonged the war by continuing to attack the Imeldan Empire well after they had gone on the defensive. It is also believed that they made numerous attempts to augment their Knights to give them an advantage. They tried to use magic on the Knights, and medically experimented on the Pactmakers, though neither method improve their Knights capabilities. Avira - The neutral country in the ancient war. Their mages were much more powerful than those from either empire, allowing them to hold off invading armies with relative ease. At some point in the war they created the six Knights and provided each empire with three of them. They believed that the destructive capabilities of the Knights at the time would cause both empires to fear their use and bring about a stalement. In the present, Avira has sided with the newly reformed Imeldan Empire and provided them with the Gigas; beasts meant to serve a similar function as the Knights except with no peaceful intent. -Character Sheet- You are limited to 1 Pactmaker character and 2 characters in total. You don't have to have a Pactmaker character, but keep in mind that the plot mostly involves them. Name: Age: (Minimum 17 for Pactmakers) Gender: Weapon: (Bows, 2h Sword, Sword/Shield, Spear, Staff, etc. Keep it to medieval style weaponry.) Picture: (Optional) Physical Description: (Required if you don't have a picture.) Bio: (Optional) Knight: (If character is a Pactmaker) Picture of Knight: The Knights look more like robots than humans (or I should say, more like medival knights), so keep that in mind when finding a picture. I know it's a little hard to find anime pictures like this (I tried, but couldn't find many, even non-anime style pics), so just use whatever you can find that you think fits the bill. Knight Weapon: (Can be different than your characters weapon) Features: (If you need to, you can describe any features that the picture you chose leaves out, or things to ignore in the picture (like guns, wings, etc).

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-04-23 17:59:34

@ Jon- On second thought, I'm honestly really not all that interested in your RP. Like I said before, I won't be able to join it now and that still holds true, but now I don't think that I'll join it unless I'm really bored out of my mind or you desperately need an RPer for it. The idea just doesn't appeal to me all that much, really. >.> Anyway, I'm going to post in the Pokemon RP either later on today or tomorrow, and in it I'll basically end the day for my half of the group (So after that we'll only be waiting on you and Grey to do your gym battles before we can move on). Well, I suppose it's about time that I should release the basic introduction of the RP idea I've been talking so much of lately. This introductions will serve as the starting point for the plot of the RP (Since I can't really find the words to summarize the idea I have for it >.>). Of course, there are more details that will be added, such as geography of the land, races of the land, weaponry, etc., but all in all this will be a pirate RP. Also, I'll be doing something different with casting this time around. I'm going to PM the people who I trust and RP with often for some of the higher ranking positions, since those are the positions vital for the RP's survival (There are only 7 of them, and 3 of them are already taken, so don't be insulted or anything like that if you don't get one of them). After that, there will be positions exclusive to club members, and positions that are open for anyone. Anyway, sorry for the long explanation with something I intended to be short and sweet, here's the idea XD: On a day like any other in the world of Hysle, a group of people (Some talented, others more ordinary) were gathered together on a particular ship by a mysterious man. This man had sent out for each person that was gathered here today, whether by letter or in person, and yet, none of these people knew who exactly this man was or what he wanted with them. He only promised them money, lots of it, and the possibility of fame, if they accepted his request. This request was the reason they were all gathered on the ship on this day, to hear what this man's plea and figure out what they would do about it. The man stood atop a box, and whistled loudly, silencing anyone who might have been chit-chatting and gathering their attention. For those who had not seen him before, his appearance might have been quite the surprise. He was a short human, bald with tanned skin and wearing a navy suit. Despite his appearance, he spoke in a deep voice to the crowd before him. "Thank you all, for coming here," the man said, "I bet you are all wondering who I am; but more importantly, why I have gathered you all on this ship on this fine day." He smiled and paused before he continued. "Well, I'll start by saying a bit about myself," the man said, "You all can call me Mr. G. I am a man of wealth, acquiring much of it by making many good choices which led to my current life in my youth." "Now, I have gathered you on this ship today for a single reason," Mr. G said, "I would like you all to become pirates." There was some shock among his audience, causing Mr. G to chuckle before he continued. "Now now, pirating is only a part of your duties," Mr. G said, "It's not all of it. Your main objective is to get 4 specific, rare jewels for me. So in some cases, this may require piracy, the art of stealing from others either on land or at sea, while in others, it may only require you all to do some investigation and some exploring." "I cannot explain much more at this current moment," Mr. G said, "Including the reason why I need these jewels, in case you may be wondering. Like I have said multiple times, I assure you great pay if you accept. When you do, if you do accept, I'll assign you your role on the ship, which happens to be the one we're on at this moment." He paused again, allowing them to think for a moment, then added one more statement. "This could be the adventure of a lifetime for some of you," Mr. G said, "It's a once in a lifetime oppertunity to travel around the world, being cared for and provided money for any basic needs while finding these 4 jewels, and in the end you will certainly gain quite a bit of money and maybe even fame. Of course, the choice is yours, but think about it. I need your answer by the end of the day, come to me when you have made your final decision." With that, Mr. G disappeared into the belly of the ship; and with that, our journey begins. --- I might change this intro up a bit before the final is posted, but you get the idea of it. So, what do you think? And would you be interested in the idea?

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-04-25 22:23:14 (edited 2012-04-26 00:37:01)

@John - If you plan to post then I'll reserve the Frost Knight I guess. In all reality I'm kinda in a similar boaat to Toyumi in that it does not really appeal to me. However, I'll join since someone has to and cause I am utterly bored out of my skull right now. @Toyumi - I forgot to ask you, but did you drop out of UTPBS? I haven't seen you post in a while actually? -You RP idea has piqued my interest a bit. It reminds me a tiny bit of Jourmugand. @Zero - Peace, man. Thanks for the help with the Takuya claim. I'd offer to help you with any of your projects but we all know I suck at photoshop XP. Good luck with those projects of yours! @Icarael - We are kinda waiting on you now in John's Rp.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-04-26 10:49:59 (edited 2012-04-26 10:56:35)

@Toyumi - See my previous post for a response to your post. I'm interested to see how your chosen approach will work out for you. I know I tried that same idea with one of my previous RP's, but it did not seem to make a difference in the RP's lifespan. @Roxas - If it doesn't appeal to you then you really shouldn't be joining. If people are just going to join out of boredom as opposed to genuine interest then there isn't much point for me to even try. It's just going to result in the RP dying out after a few days. I'm probably going to scrap that RP idea altogether. It doesn't seem to be building any interest whatsoever, so there isn't much point to try. @Icarael - Like Roxas said, we're pretty much just waiting for your character to show up and introduce themselves. No real updates for the RP's I'm in. I made posts in UtPBS and SRW a little while ago. Pokemon will move ahead whenever Grey or Toyumi posts. Oh, I would like to point out to members in the Pokemon RP to read about the Gym Battles situation at the top of my last post. It's mostly a matter of convenience for everyone involved and is pretty much up to each members personal preference. Other than that, I may get to work on another original RP instead of the failed WKC-based one I just pitched. Under the Pale Blue Sky is working out better than I had originally hoped. It took quite a few hours to type out the base for it, but I did enjoy doing it. I wouldn't mind putting that kind of time into another original, especially since I have a bit of free time at the moment to devote to it.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-04-28 10:15:42

@ Roxas- I dropped out of UtPBS sometime ago, in September or something. And I've never seen the anime, so I wouldn't know. XD @ Jon- I'm not all that sure if the casting will make a difference in the overall life of the RP either (I've never tried it before myself), but it wouldn't hurt to try. I mean, these roles are important to the RP's survival, so if someone joined in with that role only to drop out of the RP later, then it would kind of wreck that position and the players under the control of that position in the RP. Also, I'd like to see you try out another original RP. I liked UtPBS for the amount of time that I was in it, and I know that my next year of school won't be as hectic for me so I should be able to stay in another RP for a longer amount of time. And sorry for the lateness in my post in the Pokemon RP. This week turned out to be surprisingly hectic since a few things came up on a short notice. I'll work on my post there today. >.>

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-01 07:11:50

@Toyumi: Hmm, a pirate-themed RP. Not exactly my forte, but then again I'll give my support to the RP in case you have decided to release it. @Jonathon: Another original RP? Interesting. I'll be looking forward to the new one. Been rereading old RPs lately, and I was wondering, perhaps we should have some RPs with detailed systems or plots (eg more in-depth combat systems, skills, personal story arcs, just to attract the veterans?). But then again, it might deter newcomers (due to complexity, but it is not like we are having a lot of them) and it'll be time consuming to create one. Any opinions?

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-04 09:38:36

@Toyumi; your pirate theme is nice but...it just doesn't grab my attention. But I'll give you my support. @all; I will be on a ten day absence starting today. I am going on vacation to Europe. Hopefully I will get some inspiration or ideas during my trip. Until then, fare thee well.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-05 08:03:33

@Zero - Nice. Enjoy the vacation. @Emiya- Somehow you gave me an idea. How about an RP similar to Kingdom Hearts where our characters are dimensional police of sorts. And the places we go to are the worlds in all of the former RP's in Gendou City. Our characters visit and take part in shorts arcs in each 'world' similar to Kingdom Hearts. And of course when we visit those worlds we will meet the people there aka the characters that we created (e.g. meeting John's Miranda or my Malvin in UTBPWS). What do you think? I will be like revisiting history.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-05 14:57:32

@ Emiya- I know it probably won't be a ton of people's strengths either, so I'm going to do my best to explain the RP when I release (And even then, I never mind answering questions). @ Zero- If you're not really interested in the RP, then you don't have to join it. I mean, like what Jon said about his WKC RP idea, I don't want people joining the RP out of boredom, I want people to join it if they're really interested in the idea. @ Roxas- Honestly, if done correctly, I would really be interested in that idea. I like the arcs in each RP world idea, etc., but what would the big picture consist of with our characters as the "dimensional police"? Would they basically be chasing down one big bad guy the entire time? And what RP's would be included in it? Would it just be up to you to decide based on what would make the most sense, or could everyone in the RP decide on it together based upon a popularity vote (Or something like it)?

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-05 15:02:48

seeing as i just joined Kenji's fairy tail rp i figured i would stop by and say hello. been wanting to join an rp again but none have really interested me all that much.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-06 10:23:31

@Roxas:Ooh,sounds like a good idea.I can have my characters from all over the RP world meet each other and freak out XD Even better,have Snake from the future Japan meets his great grandfather Yamamoto at his Meiji era!Man,that's too much laughter coming out already ;D Speaking of time travel RP,I'm having a idea of doing a Dino Crisis-based RP.Quite a lot like the 2nd one,though,coming back to Jurrassic era and blasting dinosaurs while rescuing survivors and retrieve the data needed to rebuild the time gate and return home. The 2nd RP idea would be just like Age of Zombies(which I got obsessed to recently);zombies got shuffled to many past/future(don't think I'll need to add present time,though ;P) world,and RPers will need to travel from time to time to destroy zombies and prevent mankind from facing extinction in the far future. Freedom's the power of everything!! Usual RP characters

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-07 14:16:40 (edited 2012-05-07 18:30:54)

@Snake Watch out, Electric Snake will meet Snake Valentine very soon! Especially with his own Patriot weapon. The Precis Patriot. The Precis Patriot is a selective fire [single, burst, auto], gas-operated 7.62x51mm assault rifle that fires at a high rate of 930 rounds per minute. It was developed by a group "The Patriots" in the United States by Robert Norman. The body is a camoflodged AR-15 with a rail hand-guard and retractable stock. The camouflage comes in many variants, ranging from desert, wood, cement, and stealth. The iron sights were replaced with a red dot sight and a custom hybrid sight for further magnification into targets up to 1000 meters. The Precis Patriot uses extended 45 capacity MAGPUL magazines containing special 7.62x51mm rounds that heavily reduce firing sound, effectively removing the use of a suppressor. Also, the under-slung pump-action shotgun attachment can hold 6 rounds of 12 gauge ammunition, however other variants of ammunition can be used such as the Frag-12 19mm stabilized HE, HEAP, and flares.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-07 18:52:34

YAY I IS BACK! well then, that was a long off...but im back in to RPing now. I think i said this before, I am rewriting the plot for "School of Magical insanity" and if there is anyone who wants to get involved can pm me. I think thats all i have to say then, see you guys in the Fairy Tail RP!

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-07 23:56:07

@toyumi - we could chase down one bad guy or we could be after a group with several members like Organization XIII. We can all decide together what RP's to go into. @snake - @@ aaaaa, too many snakesssss! I wonder if you will pull a liquid snake and say this, "BROTHERSSS!" when the Snakes all meet. @SRT - Heck yeah! Fairy Tail! Whooo!

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-09 18:08:39

@Toyumi - Well I hope that when I do my new one you'll be able to stay in. I enjoyed having you in UtPBS, but I understand that you didn't have the time available to keep up with it. @UtPBS, Pokemon & SRW casts - I'm going to make a post in all threads tomorrow since I don't have to work tomorrow night. Pokemon depends on whether or not enough people have posted since my last one, while SRW and UtPBS will be relatively large posts. In the case of UtPBS, it's going to be a huge post and it's going to have a lot of plot. I really want that plot point to happen before I leave for my trip on Saturday morning, since I don't want to leave everyone on a cliffhanger for a full week and make them wait to see who the main antagonist will be. I will be gone from Saturday until Friday and won't have any internet access. UtPBS and Pokemon will have to go on hold until I get back. Well, I guess Pokemon can keep going with the gym battles and such, but UtPBS will definitely have to be put on hold. I can't really leave anyone in charge of this arc while I'm gone.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-15 15:58:42

@Zero Both are quite bad, and hard to keep track of.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-17 19:15:56

@All; I have return. During my trip, I have not come up with any ideas that is consider original. But I am debating to do an rp based on anime. But I would like you to choose which kind of anime-base rp I should do. Saint Seiya or Accel world? @Frozen.. I suppose.. EDIT I think I should start a gundam rp..I have putting that idea off for some time... The plot is somewhat a mixture of Evangelion but the machines are Gundams. The gundam technology will be several years after gundam 00 era. Right now the idea is just rough.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-18 17:18:09

I've returned from my trip as well. Still kind of worn out, and I need a little time to readjust to the time difference, so I just made a post in the SRW thread. It's going to be a while before I'm able to read through all of the posts in UtPBS and put one together myself, so just hang on for a bit.

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-19 04:36:10 (edited 2012-05-20 22:26:39)

@Toyumi: Alright, count me in then for the pirate RP. I even reserved a character template for it. Any updates on the progress? @Ray: Yo, good to see you again! @Roxas: Cross dimensional police? Hmm, didn't interest me that much, but parts of it reminds me of "H" 's highly detailed Crossover RP (yes, the crossing different dimension part.) Then again, if properly done, might be interesting. @SRT: Welcome back~! EDIT @Jonathon: Thank goodness you have posted in UtPBS, or I might ended up doing something irreversible xD

Re: Gendou RPer's United~! Link | by on 2012-05-20 16:43:48

@ Ray- Well, you could always take a look at the Pirate-themed RP that I plan on releasing in a few weeks. And since you've posted here and I think you have the requirements for joining it (Being a minimum of 5 RP's), you're welcome to join the club! @ Jon- I'll post in the Pokemon RP soon, but I do have a question. Are we still supposed to PM you for evolving our character's Pokemon? I wanted to evolve Adele's Mareep during the Gym battle, but because I was studying for my tests I didn't really get the chance to concentrate on the RP until you were already on your trip. >> @ Emiya- You've reserved a character template already? I haven't even released most of the details for the RP yet. XD As for how it's coming along, I've finally started seriously working on it only recently because I finished up my most important tests of the year just this past week. It's still a work in progress. >>
