World of Heroes: Reboot -- Discussion Thread

I see no problem with it. The question now is how are we going to work our way into the main plot...

Oh, I had something in mind for that already. Just waiting for the right time to spring it (e.g. after Daniel replies).

@Nman: I totally forgot about that, to be honest, but you've added quite a lot of tropes to the list since I last checked. Good work!

Yeah, I just wanted to finally get Heavy into things, so...she's sort of mixed in there now, heh.

Alright, there. I went and added a couple tropes pertaining to Arguma.

Okay, guys; real sorry if anyone has any problems with this, but you're really going to have to wrap things up, or at least put things in a way that can be continued later. No offense, but there are other players on standby, waiting for the Op' to start, and I did say that you should wrap things up by 6:00 AM this morning. (Which has already passed.) Just an FYI.

I left Wildcard's last line a bit open ended, so that Sabre could write what Abu did in two brief sentences of a flashback after the timeskip. So maybe if D retcons his last post so that Wildcard was already gone by the time his character got there, instead of bumping into him and the rats, that would speed things up.

Heading to work soon, do what I can to get involved in the prison thing when I get back (why is it that all the big plotlines break out when I have to be at work?)

Ah, then forgive my delay. I'll post a reply as soon as I get out of this meeting

Yeah don't worry I'll change it, but I won't be around for the next few hour since my job called me in.

@Everyone: For future reference, just Darkside, Dark, DS, Void, etc. are fine. I know the full handle is awkward. The only reason I used it instead of "Darkside" is out of habit (and I if I remember correctly, the name was already taken).

@KH+: To elaborate on my post earlier, I wasn't attempting to introduce some kind of lengthy, complex plot thread. I don't expect that it would take more than two or three posts to resolve. The idea was to force Shadowbell and Gaunt's characters to save the guy in their costumes (1,2), thereby giving me a plausible excuse to have Scio feed them info about the Prison Operation (3) without having him look like a creepy stalker. Otherwise, contacting two supposedly random people would either imply that he looks far deeper into the minds of ordinary citizens than necessary or compromise his cover as a simple tutor. If you're still against the idea due to time constraints, though, I suppose it's more reasonable to skip it altogether.

Yes, please; sorry, but I think it's for the best to skip it. If they're registered, Robert'll just use the ear-beeper. If the're not, they can either mention finding out about it after the time skip, or if that fails, I can always come up with something.

Also, I think I can get right to the Prison Op now. However, I also realize that I might have missed something, and that there might still be a few people who aren't in a position to skip. The time right now where I am is roughly 6:20 PM, so around 3 hours from now, at 9:00 PM, that's when we'll do the timeskip. If anyone feels they need to wrap something up before then, please use this time to do so.

Hooray!

Also, if someone's unregistered hero ran right up to the prison not knowing about the gas (assuming Robert could pull the strings to do so) and passed out, I'd laugh.

Alright, fair enough. My fault for signing up for an RP during finals

I'll have my character be late for some reason...because I've got to go get some sleep soon, got to get up extra early tomorrow.

Don't bother waiting for me, just make craziness happen.

Change of plans — we're going to have to start this tomorrow morning. Shouldn't be too big a deal though.

And here I thought I'd be present when it all went down. Silly me. <___<

Well I'm back, and will be for two days since I got days off from work. Lemme just wash up and stuff and I'll see what I can do.

The Prison Op has begun.

Just as I have to leave.

Right, posted. Eva is free to see shit go down, or notice/be noticed by a passing super.

I suppose I could have Strix already inside the prison incognito, but I figured I'd ask.

Strongman? Strongman?! Strongman! You're clever 2k3ho, very clever.

I also wanted to have Lucunditas already inside the prison.

I think that Adamant would be outside the prison keeping watch in case anything happens, since I don't think that he would be able to get inside considering the fact that the prison is bound to have a metal detector and an X-ray scan of sorts.

On another note, never give the GM any ideas especially when it's about shawarma.

Hrm. So, what're the doors throughout the prison like? Typical steel ones with hinges, or the futuristic kind that open and close with that little hissing sound?
