(although WHY DOES IHMN GET TO PICK RACES?),

Ah yes, this RP will be quite interesting, to say the least... ^^ heh. Actually, it would be kind of... weird/interesting to be in a RP without any humans.

Heiseki

Not bantering yet (although WHY DOES IHMN GET TO PICK RACES?), just bookmarking.

Probably because he either has "the luck of the draw" or because he may liven things up a bit. It all depends on your perspective. Because that's all the world is. Perspective.

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 06:46 PM
Yes, but what will IHMN pick to replace humans? He also said "No humanoids", so nothing even human-like...

Heiseki
06-30-2004, 06:48 PM
Yes, but what will IHMN pick to replace humans?
It will most definately be Weasels.

Wolf, there's a reason why I got races, and you choose the name.

And I might have some bipedal creatures...

What is good is that no matter what, anything I come up with can work. If it's Sci-Fi, they are aliens. If it's fantasy, they are fantasy creatures. If it's modern, mutants.

Unless the RP in in a realistic (Boring) world, what ever I come up with works.

Wolf99x
06-30-2004, 07:31 PM
eh...all right then. Just take what happens. As long as there's at least one biped race, I won't mind (too) much.

Heiseki
06-30-2004, 07:44 PM
Hmm...how about no bipeds? THAT'D be fun. ^^

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 07:52 PM
Umm... Not really. Depends on what the Non-Bipeds are, but that could be really weird, or if done REALLY wrong, it could be downright stupid...

Wolf99x
06-30-2004, 07:59 PM
It's a difficult thing to do, nonbiped races in an RP. It has to be done right or things can definetely be screwed up.

Heiseki
06-30-2004, 08:15 PM
I meant that sarcastically, of course. this is my sarcastic face : ^^

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 08:31 PM
*Cough* Yeah... I knew that, just... Testing you... That's it...

Heiseki
06-30-2004, 08:53 PM
Haha. I will pass any test with minimal amount of study. ^^ Again, that was sarcasm. See? We're learning.

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 08:59 PM
There you go, you learn something new everyday so the saying goes... I now know the little Forum Face for sarcasm...

Heiseki
06-30-2004, 09:25 PM
Nope. You know MY sarcasm face. Everyone has their own sarcasm face, like everyone has their own fingerprints. Unless, of course, you had those burned off. And that is painful.

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 09:32 PM
But very useful for committing crimes! Which, you know, I don't commit any, and even if I did, no one could prove anything...

Speaking of which, are we supposed to be discussing something about the RP here? SS didn't give much in the way of instructions, other then to assign everyone's part of the RP to create...

BMHadoken
06-30-2004, 09:33 PM
I get magic level...I'm torn between having you go sacrifice yourself to a God/Deity and MAYBE they decide you bring you back as their avatar, or basic elemental, or maybe something having to do with...hmm...I'll hammer it out when genre and world gets decided.

Forever Zero

Well, if nothing else, the Sacrifice one could cut down on RPer quantity very quickly...

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 09:40 PM
I'm VITO-ing what I did earlier.

I'll pick the races. I have no idea what kind of crack I was on.

I'll be checking my PM's for details, and then I'll post current known details about the world

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 09:41 PM
It's veto...

And what am I choosing then?

BMHadoken
06-30-2004, 09:44 PM
Maybe he meant a giant fat Italian mobster was coming or something?

Hmm...I'm pretty sure SS would trust with something...weapons...food...wildlife?

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 09:44 PM
Technically IHMN, he hasn't "Veto-ed" you yet, so if you post your Race List before he can, he would have to accept it...

Anyway, I want to learn some more before I decide on a social system...

EDIT:
Maybe he meant a giant fat Italian mobster was coming or something?

That could be it to. I mean, who knows what SS was thinking...

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 09:44 PM
IHMN-Like Heiseki, Batgirl (if she replies) and me (formerly)...

NOTHING.

*insert crazed laughter*

...fine. Choose something quirky.

FZ- Yes I have

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 09:49 PM
Quirky? What's left to choose?

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 09:51 PM
Here's what's known about the world so far...


1) The bad guy's homeland got horribly ravaged by a natural disaster, so they're now forcefully invading.

AND

2) The technological level is really friggin' high,

BMHadoken
06-30-2004, 09:53 PM
Great...with high tech, comes a friggin hard way to implement magic...

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 09:54 PM
I will choose...

The average intelligence of the people.

Non PC races.

Population.

Weather.

I can't think of anything else (Choose one, or more).

Edit - Have it so technology and magic can't work together, and any mage (Or person who knows magic) that touches technology gets burned by it, and vice versa.

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 09:55 PM
How high? Cybernetics high? Giant robots high? Teleportation high? Plasma weapons high? Saying that it's "Really high" doesn't tell me much...

The other one is helpful though. I have some ideas now...

EDIT: BM, it isn't that hard to implement Magic in a Sci-Fi High-Tech world. Just implement it as normal. If you don't want it to be "Magic", make it "Psychic Power"...

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 09:57 PM
I have no clue. All Dante said was "Really friggin high"

...and IHMN, almost all of those have been chosen already. I don't think population has been chosen, but it wouldn't really make a difference.

Krylo
06-30-2004, 09:58 PM
(even ask Krylo, I mentioned the idea to him)
Also, Celes and I were discussing this over PMs or AIM, or something. Is that where you got the idea, SS?No need to ask, I already mentioned that.

Also, I, apparently, get to decide weaponry level. I do take bribes.

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 09:58 PM
Then give me races back.

Edit - Isn't technology weapondry?

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 10:00 PM
Technology is closely related to weaponry... So I don't know how Weapon Level is different from Tech Level...

Krylo
06-30-2004, 10:00 PM
Nah. You can, plausibly, have atomic bombs without cars and running water, and vice versa. Not likely, but, hey... it's plausible.

Edit: For instance, let's say that guns had never moved past their powder load equivalent, because after a few battle tests people found that you could fire arrows faster and they were nearly as effective. You could then have a world that progressed normally, except we'd still be using swords and arrows in combat instead of guns.

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 10:02 PM
An example is Final Fantasy. Plain steel swords and airships, or big nuclear guns with simple boats.

Maybe someone created nanotechnology that increases a sword's blade to the point it can cut anything, and technological adaptations have rendered guns almost useless against humans.

I don't know. I'll just BS an excuse. And you know, the idea here was that you wouldn't discuss what you were going to do with anyone.

High-technology and swords man....

What? It got used in Gundam, and ZOE!

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 10:10 PM
Who is choosing climate and geographical stuff?

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 10:11 PM
I don't remember, but I know it was assigned.

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 10:12 PM

Alright, a ZOE type world could be interesting... And I have a funny feeling that is what Dante meant by the spoken level of technology...

Krylo
06-30-2004, 10:14 PM
What's ZOE?

Also, I'm wavering between medieval, and huge ass plasma blasty things. Mmm... plasma blasties.

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 10:16 PM
What's ZOE?

Also, I'm wavering between medieval, and huge ass plasma blasty things. Mmm... plasma blasties.

Zone of the Enders (Big hovering robots in space)

And why not both? Basic, metal swords, but they shoot out lasers.

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 10:17 PM
To describe ZOE...

Think Gundam. Just faster, more streamlined, more destructive, and sexier.

What? I'd say it's an apt description abuot the way some of the females' Frames move and fight. And what can you say about the command pods?

Squishy Cheeks
06-30-2004, 10:20 PM
Why does everyone leave out the great series Macross Saga. I wouldn't mind being a valkarie pilot.

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 10:21 PM
The races we get to choose from are going to be so boring...

Also, krylo gets to choose if there are sexy robots or not, since they are obviously weapons (You can either screw Dante over, or make him wet himself).

Lastly, is anybody deciding on religions and other big group things?

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 10:21 PM
EDIT- IHMN: Religions have not been chosen.



*slaps self for forgetting the glory of Macross*

By the by, BM has given us magic.

This is straight from him.

Ok, magic has to be seriously quested for. First, you have to figure out what your own Spirit Guide is. This can be anything from nature.

To find out your Guide, you basically have to get isloated, starve yourself (the application form), then wait it out till it comes to you, and then it'll say that you are ready to find it (the callback).

Then you have to find where the 'shrine' to that Guide is, and get there. Then the Guide appears, sees if your worthy to be its avatar(they can only choose one a generation, they can afford to be 'stingy'), and brands you (interview and uniform).

Now, while it may be a bitch just to get to the interview, the job is pretty kosher. The Guide will always be there to instruct you (some are better than others), and you gain whatever powers are associated with it. A Coyote avatar might be a trickster, Cacti avatars might be able to grow thorns and shoot them and retain water, Hawks get good eyesight. This doesn't mean the elements get boned, some of nature are element oriented (volcanoes, forests, etc.) but they are really picky and don't feel bad about not only rejecting, but seriously fucking up whoever they consider a joke.

But some Guides are very particular about the world. A forest guide might hate deforestation, so you wouldn't be able to touch anything it considers a threat (swords, axes, lasers), while a fire guide hates water, yadda yadda.

So yeah, thats bout it. Pretty simple...for a crazy ass RP.

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 10:23 PM
Ha! I get to make up god.

I'll have to think about this...

Squishy Cheeks
06-30-2004, 10:25 PM
how long till character creation? If we can make a request. I'd like to request either a Crow avatar, or a Raven, please.

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 10:25 PM
Two things.

IHMN- What the hell have I done?

Krylo- You make the weapons mechs...and I VITO it. I strongly want to avoid mechs.

Heiseki
06-30-2004, 10:26 PM
Mmm...starvation....

And SS? It's "veto" with an "e". You know, the most common letter in the English language?

BMHadoken
06-30-2004, 10:27 PM
Hmm...I predict IHMN makes up either a God that is so drunk he could also just not exist, or enough gods for enough things that you couldn't sneeze without getting smited.

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 10:28 PM
Okay, I have decided.

Once we get Weapons, that's basically all we need.

Past that, in character creation, you get to choose one single thing about your character. ONE.

Everyone else can work it out in this thread, or in PMs/AIM. Be serious. We (I) want this to be a good RP.

Not some short little idiotic spurt.

Repeat- Be serious. Give them character you know they can do really well.

Krylo
06-30-2004, 10:35 PM
Note: I hate mechs. Although I kinda want to put them in, but make them as absolutely pathetic as they would be if they actually obeyed the laws of physics. (A bipedal machine would be almost completely impossible to balance and keep walking. Especially one of that size and weight... not to mention all the strains on it's lower body when moving on land... etc. etc.) so some guy with a knife and equal training as it would take to pilot one of those monstrosities would be more effective. You know... just to irritate Dante.

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 10:41 PM
In an odd way, that would be worth it.

But hurry up and decide the weapons. Armour can be mixed in there as well.

Once you do that, we can create characters. Starting with me... (Though I strongly sense I will regret it)

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 10:43 PM
And SS? It's "veto" with an "e". You know, the most common letter in the English language?

For some reason that he won't explain, he steadfastly refuses to spell the word 'Veto' correctly...

IHMN- What the hell have I done?

You fool! Don't you know that if IHMN is put in charge of anything more then a piece of string, he will find a way to kill us all?! (And I wouldn't be surprised if he killed us all with the string...)

Dante
06-30-2004, 10:45 PM
Pitiful worms! While I am gone you make light of me? Now you shall feel the awesome wrath of - oooh, what's that?

Krylo
06-30-2004, 10:45 PM
Don't rush me. Killing people is an art... and I am deciding the canvas and paint which will be used for that art, not just for myself, but for everyone in the world we are creating. I must take time and carefully weigh and measure not only the effectiveness, but the style, grace, and beauty of every level of weaponry to exist. Such perfection takes time... like allowing a fine wine to age to perfection.

Forever Zero
06-30-2004, 10:46 PM
Pitiful worms! While I am gone you make light of me? Now you shall feel the awesome wrath of - oooh, what's that?

Yep, that's just what I thought...

Quick Krylo, while he's distracted by the shiney object, make the crappy mechs!

Or you could make DESENT mechs that, while not towering engines of death to all, are also not totally pussified to the point that one guy can take them out.

EDIT: Krylo, I can honestly say, that is the longest line of bullshit I have ever read, and I am impressed that you could type it all without breaking down in tears of laughter...

BMHadoken
06-30-2004, 10:49 PM
Great, a God who actually pays attention.

And we always could make super well crafted and well running mechs...athen restrict them to sweeping streets and building toasters. And if you tried to install so much as an unregistered lighter it would explode...

Combine the two, worship the machine god.

I can see it now... "Infidel-Hunters of the Emperor of Steel", a trilogy in five parts starring such greats as Forever Zero (somewhat famous), Heiseki (not really famous), CelesJessa (Quite famous), SuperSaiyan (On the road to being famous), Dante (evil, sadistic and famous), IHMN(original and infamous) and many others!

IHateMakingNames
06-30-2004, 10:55 PM
Here's what I got on God/Religion so far (At first I refer to the God in third person, but as I go down I start refering to him in first person. I had that mind set in after the commandments and it stuck subconsiously).


The Creator/God/Omnipresence One/What ever you want to call him is named Pooky. He is a giant teddy bear.

Randomly, he visits the planet, just for the hell of it. During this time he does what ever the hell he wants, because he’s God, he can do that.

With his all seeing eyes, anyone that even attempts to harm any sort of cute, baby animal on purpose (Or on accident and not caring) is instantly smitten and doomed to eternal torment. But, if some one tries to use an animal for a shield to protect themselves, knowing what happens to those who harm animals, they will be smitten. Adult animals can be harmed, but only for hunting purposes, and self defense. Otherwise, doomed.

Every month, each town must hold a raffle. The winner of the raffle (Cannot be a child or old people) is publicly stoned by the rest of the town. There is no real reason for this, but Pooky finds it amusing.

Every day everyone must pray to him. The pray takes 30 seconds. If you try to rush the prayer, you will be electrified. Any who do not pray will be shot by Pooky all seeing sniper rifle team from the heaven. But they won’t be killed, just shot in the leg or arm or something.

Pooky assigns the role of Guides to mortals he likes, who then become immortal guides. But if they ever annoy Pooky, they will be smitten.

Anyone who harms a teddy bear in the same fashion as harming a small animal will be dealt with in the same fashion.

Every year Pooky demands from each village a young, female virgin. Though he does not ask for a hot person, if the village gives him an ugly person, they will all lose a limb of their choice. Once Pooky gets the virgins, he puts them in giant jars and keeps them as pets.

There are 5 commandments (Commandments meaning “The rules Pooky felt like writing down).

1) If you do not think I exist, I will personally come over to your house and kick you in the balls. If you are a women, I will kick you in the ovaries (I’m god, I can do that). If you are still not religious after that, I will continue to kick you until you are.
2) If you worship some one else, you are stupid, and you will become like that permanently.
3) Thou shall covenant thy neighbors wife, or thou shalt never covenant again.
4) If you are ugly, that means I hate you.
5) If you are hot, that means I like you.

All families must have a pet. There choices are either cats, dogs, penguins, lemurs, komodo dragons, talking birds, Cthulu, or a howler monkey. Other pets will be accepted, but the family must make a sacrifice. The sacrifice can be anything, but it has to please Pooky.

If your young, hot, and single, give me a call. My number is 1-800-GOD.

Anyone who pretends to be me will be turned into a mosquito, and then I will send 1000 dragonflies after you.

If you ever refer to me as Poopy and you are not a small child or have a speaking disability, you will suffer the wraith of my poop. I’m a giant teddy bear, I’ve got lots of it.

While I won’t mettle in the affairs of mortals in big things (Wars, making of villages or countries, other stuff), I will accept bribes. I won’t personally help you, but some one who can will.

I really, really like bribes and sacrifices.

Heiseki
06-30-2004, 10:55 PM

I have decided. The level of weaponry shall be medieval. Cold steel. Yar.

I'd like to use something about weapons reaching a certain point (around the neutron bomb) it was thought best by all people to just go backwards, and destroy all weaponry beyond the level of cold steel blades of stabbity death. Or something.

I'd be more eloquent, but I'm tired and used up all my eloquence for tonight on that bullshit.

What makes you think that I'm not serious? Just because it's odd doesn't mean it can't work. We're already in a fucked up world, might as well have a fucked up religion. And any other type of religion is boring, a god who actually affects your lives is intresting. You just lack creativity.

IHMN- You are VETO'd. Though that religion may turn up somewhere. Hell, it is DEFINETLY turning up somewhere. Just not as a primary.



Yay for "e"! however, "definitely" is spelled wrong. Think of it as "finite", which has an end, unlike infinite. Memory tricks, they work.

And I thought the idea of a Pooky god was awesome. And it's serious, if you don't want to get smited.^^

You don't joke about Pooky, he will do bad things to you (Read the list).

IHMN, simple advice...grow up. Think of this like Perdition's.

What? Just because I want different races then humans and elves for once? Or an intresting twist of a demented religion that has to be followed? I assumed the point of this RP was either A) To get an wierd, intresting world to RP in, or B) You're lazy.

And this has nothing to do with Perdition's...

Darth SS
06-30-2004, 11:13 PM
Heiseki....just let the spelling fall.

Also, the entire concept of religion is the belief in something higher, and untangible. It's believing in something without any proof.

If a giant teddy-bear comes down, than it obviously isn't a god because it's tangible and seems to have limited power.


EDIT- Okay, would you have done that whole Pooky shtick in Perdition's?

Also, Pooky will not be in this. Get over it.

The entire planet will be aetheists.

Also, I think the only race in this entire thing will be human. It's a lot easier.

Also, the entire concept of religion is the belief in something higher, and untangible. It's believing in something without any proof.

That is boring. Why believe in something with no proof at all?

If a giant teddy-bear comes down, than it obviously isn't a god because it's tangible and seems to have limited power.

Any good god would do that. Instead of 'I will not prove that I exist, but if you don't believe in me, your screwed', Pooky is 'Hey, look at me!'


Edit - I want my character to be a pilot. It will be so much easier to kill people by running them over with a high tech car then it is to cut them with a sword.

1) It's called faith. I would really love to see you go say that to the Pope. "Hey, you're an idiot!"

2) Then he's obviously not a god.

And if this is Perditions, then Jad is clearly a jackass evil and we finish only because Celes guilts us into it.

Aww... That's no fair.... *sulks off into a corner somewhere* So that's the only reason it finished.....

I would, but it cost a lot to fly to Rome. And I don't think the pope speaks english, and I don't speak italian (Or whatever the pope is). And even if he did speak english, I'm not sure he would understand. He seems like he should be in a hospital or something. That, and some catholic secruity would probably tackle me.

2) Then he's obviously not a god.

He's still a god. He is the creator, he can do anything. He's like God from the bible time. Miracles and angels were everywhere, just he doesn't use angels. Or Greek gods from myth times. They always interfered with mortals, usually by having sex with them, then killing them.

SS: Sorry about the spelling. It's a nasty petpeeve of mine. It likes to eat away at my brain. And Aethism is my kinda deal.
FZ: I'm only cruel in a motherly-loving kinda way. Again, the petpeeve thing. I blame it on a mental disorder.

So, we're a planet of human aethists, with medieval weaponry....and what objective?

I think the Pope is Polish, but I think he knows English and a few other languages. However, the poor guy does need to retire or something. He can't even keep his head up when he has that giant Pope Hat on... It's kind of sad at this point...

He's still a god. He is the creator, he can do anything. He's like God from the bible time. Miracles and angels were everywhere, just he doesn't use angels. Or Greek gods from myth times. They always interfered with mortals.

Greek/Roman Gods, and even Angels, are all beings that can be killed. God himself is a massive being that has never actually showed himself, and thus either doesn't have a corporeal body, or has just never shown it...

It's alright. ^^ I don't mind. The RP that was Perdition's Tale... it haunts me forever....

I won't make your guy bad if the others don't. ^^



and I'm in charge of the RP name... so I must get on that...

IHMN, did it ever occur to you that the reason no god has ever come down is because, THEY ARE GODS.

They're are everything and nothing at once. And maybe humans could not comprehend it?

Closest we've gotten was Jesus. But the jews crucified him. So, he was mortal. There was the whole coming back from the dead thing, but he was still human. Granted, just with access to all of God's power.

That's a lousy excuse...

Then come in a comprehendable form, and make it suddenly rain cotton that lands into the ocean and spells out "I AM GOD". I think humans can comprehend that. Scientist might take a while, but eventually they would convert.

Now your just using the catholoic religion...

Fine, Pooky can be killed then. Just it would take an extreme amount of power to do so, a level which humans can't reach.

And also, a lot of stories have gods appearing all the time. An RP is just a story by several people.

Oh, and in Dogma, god came to earth. People say her, she danced around a bit (Just she couldn't talk or people's head would blow up).

06-30-2004, 11:49 PM
You have serious issues with faith, don't you? The entire concept of believing is completely alien to you.

I used the catholic religion because I AM Ukranian Catholic.

Note in Dogma God was completely bound by normal conditions. Remember when He was the old guy, He was beaten within an inch of his life just as easily as a normal person?

And after that guy died, God came back as some chick, and in an instant cleaned up an entire city block of dead bodies and blood. And then revived a girl, and made her pregnat.

Edit - Ugh, this has been turned into a (pathetic) religious 'discussion', which aren't allowed.

Since the name really isn't important, you should just make the next thread now since this is past 100 post.

Also, I request a pilot character. High tech everything but weapons, I rather run people over with a high tech hover car then try to slice them with a sword.

Alright, I have to get off now, and I won't be back until Sunday, so here is the idea of the Social Structure of the world.

Basically, most of the world is a Technocracy. Those with the most technological power from the Old Ages before the Fall of Technology are respected and given high status in the nations. Even a junk collecter that comes across a bunch of very powerful artifacts would be treated with great respect and given much power. Basically, technology is like Land in older kingdoms: the more you have, the better off you are.

Other then the Techno Elite (Those that own the greatest technology, and still know how to repair and operate it), who are equal to a Council that rules the kingdom, it then goes into a more Feudal system, with the Techno Elite granting gifts of technology to those they give status and power in the kingdom. A ruler of a kingdom might have a personal sheild, while the liege over many kingdoms might have a suit of protective power armor. Knights frequently have Cybernetics to improve their power in combat, and to show their rank, and the higher the persons rank and skill, the more cybernetics (Elite Generals, Important Lords, and the Techno Elite are usually more Cybernetic then Flesh and Blood...)

The Serfs, aka 75% of the population, is kept in line with a strict code that binds them to their lands, and offers them technology and aid if they serve their lords faithfully. In some cases, if available, the Techno Lords will even use advanced Mind Control devices to keep citizens of massive cities in perfect line with their wishes.

That would've been useful about five minutes before I made the new thread.

Now I need to incorporate it...in fact it almost all works. Except for the fall of technology thing.

Let's all just assume that it isn't THAT bad. The higher you are, the more advanced your techno.

Well, Krylo went with Medieval Weapon Tech in a High-Tech world, so I figured technology had to have become rarer and harder to produce with time, and that if there was a stigma over weapons tech, a general stigma over all tech would have appeared...

And I missed the new thread...
