A Game of Gods: Infinities

Go To

It has been a year since the final challenge took place.

It has been a year since the traitorous creature known as Omega was exiled to a place of void an nothingness. It has been a year since an unlikely group of beings fought their way free from the clutches of their captors, the enigmatic Nomads, who had forced them to take part in a bizarre series of competitions for their own amusement. And it seemed that, for a time, the Nomad's machinations had ended, and the people of the myriad realities were free to live their lives free of divine interference.

They were wrong.

Now, a year after the final Challenge, strange new forces are beginning to conspire. Old and new beings alike will find themselves caught up in a brand new quest for survival and freedom among unlikely backdrops, a quest that will bring them to the edge of... infinity.

Hello, and welcome to the signup thread for A Game Of Gods: Infinities. First of all, thanks for taking an interest in the thread, and I hope you'll sign up for this game. As the old Forum RP hands are familiar with, all the standard rules apply- autohitting, godmodding, ghosting, metagaming, etc. are unacceptable like in any other game.

_________________

Challenges

The basic premise of the game is quite similar to last season, with a group of heroes and/or villains taking on challenges, often pitting them against heroes or villains from another universe. To begin with, we will be working through a glut of challenges leftover from the previous round, but after that people will be able to suggest and implement their own challenges.

This season, Two challenges will usually run at once. A secondary challenge will takeplace alongside the primary challenge, giving new layers something to do or an alternative to the primary challenge. This may affect what happens to your character in the long run, so choose wisely!

If you have an idea for a challenge, feel free to consult any of the GMs: Stratofarious, Troydenite and Flanker66. Remember, if nothing else, please try to keep challenges brief and manageable! 2 weeks is the maximum time a challenge should take, and please be sure that you or someone else will be able to see it through to completion.

Actually....how about No.

The Nasu verse is pretty hax and we're trying to find a good reason for us to tell Rider that she can't just Bellaroufon every last challenge she goes through.

And on a minor note, I'm pretty sure the master's caliber and the connection between master and servant matters a hell of a lot.

@Troy:That's fine with me.

Maybe I should explain how the magic works, better.

Rider's Master. Has infinite Prana. But she's really like a container for it, she can only hold so much at a time. Rider has to draw from that amount, and while she slowly fills back up with Magic from Sakura over time. Using the eyes and Bellerophon take up more magic than she can recharge.

Like I said they're desperation attacks. And it would be kind of shitty of me to write in a drawback to using a power and then sneak in a way around it.

[up][up] As demonstrated by Rider in Unlimited Blade Works. In that route, Shinji was Rider's master, and we all know how that ended.

Guys, we found a way to get Rider in (now I wonder whether bringing chibi!Rider into Team Science is a good idea), let's not start an argument about Nasuverse mechanics.

Right. Barring objections from my fellow GMs, nerfed!Rider is accepted. Feel free to hop on the Discussion Thread.

[up][up][up]Sakura was Rider's master in all three routes, she just let Shinji take charge. Shinji can't be a master because he has no magic.

Eclipse for Good Guys where a Nomad is trying to raise heroes to be well, heroic Nomads to defend the multiverse if Sifuri fails to work?

Admittedly having Erio sat right next to my computer doesn't help.

Sooo....I was wondering something. Say a certain character from a certain game's true identity was kind of a massive spoiler to the game they came from, but the game has had about 2 sorta-sequels by now, 1 already released in the west...would they be allowed?

I know who you're on about, and I think there's a prohibition on spoiling massive twists that haven't gotten to It Was His Sled levels yet.

I'm not a GM, but if the game's more than a year old, you can't really complain about spoilers.

Eh...that kinda condemns it more, since even though the original game is 4 years old, the english release only happened about 9 months ago.tongue

In any case, as much as I really want to play them, if it's a definite 'No' I'll start thinking of somebody else!

Wait for an actual GM to rule on it first.
