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.

-steps in-

Don't worry, I got this.

Now, I haven't had much experience with Animal Crossing, let alone Let's Plays of Animal Crossing. The thing is, though, the only other character we've allowed in from original fan content is Armani, from Broken Bow - and he has an entire canon of stories behind him, substantiating him as a character whom we can possibly hold to standards of in or out-of character. I'm worried that Billy will be too much of an Audience Surrogate to have much of a personality. Then again, I may be wrong. But a large proportion of this RP is character reaction. If a character's only trait is 'angry, paranoid eight-year-old,' I'm a bit worried that you might run out of interesting things to do very soon.

The second thing is 'eight-year-old.' Now, I trust that Billy is disturbingly good with his axe, but with the level of threat we're going up against here, hacking away at things with the strength of an eight-year-old might not be enough to keep him from getting killed. For example, in the current challenge everyone's on a Dungeons and Dragons campaign. One group is about to face a dragon, another is fighting zombies. The ones who aren't on a campaign are fighting a mad swarm of ravenous black soldier-thread-things.

We did have a guitar-playing Muggle, but we just turned him into a Spoony Bard so that he would have some combat effectiveness. I doubt Billy would take kindly to becoming a Spoony Bard. tongue

Sorry to ask you to do this, but would you mind reconsidering? Posting a new signup is fine. If what I've said doesn't apply to Billy at all and you're set on playing him, you're welcome to tell me why and flesh out his personality a bit.

Hey, are signups open? Or should I take my ignorant self and go find a different, less-awesome role-play to join and then subsequently quit within a handful of days?

Here we are : a character you probably have never heard of, he's too obscure.

(* Sips Starbucks coffee *)

Name The Satisfied Magician

Appearance: (http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/sunlesssea.gamepedia.com/0/02/SS_Officers_Chief_Engineer_L_Genial_Magician.jpg)

Universe: Sunless Sea/ Fallen London. After the completion of his quest, golden ending.

Personality: Intelligent, histrionic, charming, talented, vicious, vengeful, straightforward, thoughtful, gentlemanly, and above all else, satisfied.

Abilities/Powers: A talented engineer, one hand or not. Knowledgeable of dreams, the psychometric planes, and the nature of light and darkness. Cannot do much with this knowledge though without the proper materials. Very good at sleight of hand, magic tricks, card games (real ones, like poker or 52 pickup), messing with yo head, and theatrical performance. Also good in a fight, if for his hook if nothing else.

Hmm. So he's aware of the laws of psychometrithingy and dreams as they apply to his universe? What exactly could he do, given the materials?

[up][up]

Take you to the realm of dreams and minds.

And take things back with him.

Things that can only be found in your wildest fantasies.

And your worst nightmares.

Literally.

Assuming he doesn't die or get captured or changed, of course.

Hollowmass character for Halloween in real life, and primarily in sunless sea. Also, yes, yes it would you monster.

Can I have a list of what exactly he can build, and what he'd need to do it? You see, the characters get their own 'summon basically anything' rooms, so theoretically, he shouldn't be lacking for materials.

Sorry for the late reply.

Will Vandom

  • Name Wilhelmina "Will" Vandom
  • Appearance: Here she is civilian
  • Universe: Witch comic season 1
  • Personality: This one is hard as I am still reading he comic and I hope to know more when I eventually play, but She is a tomboy,sensitive and not very good at trusting and she also has a high temper .
  • Abilities/Powers:
  • The ability to transform herself and Hay lin into their guardian form and use the full potential of their powers,
    • Control and produce energy mainly electricity and sound
    • psychokinesis .
    • Astral Duplication: She can use the Heart of Kandrakar to a "mindless/powerless copy of herself"

Both

Both are basically Magical Girl s that need a special jewel called the "hearth of Kandrakar" to user their full powers. Only Will can use "the heart of Kandrakar" whose only purpose here will be as a transformation trinket and a low healing device.

In the comic they are too OP even by tsifuri standards... but I am nerfing them hard so that they are basically just low level elemental benders(I deleted reality warping as a power for real) . Still I am expecting some nerfs, just tell me what's OP and consider it gone!.

Alright, making a list of active Infinities characters. If I miss anybody, do tell.

Also, I'm wondering whether the GMs will kill me if I'll mention wanting to drop another character in instead of Pang Tong as my second character...
