City of Weirdos: The Superpower RP (Discussion)

Perhaps it already did. While Belinda attracts luck, Tiger attracts pussy cats.

...That's genius. No wonder that power works in both forms, it's genetic!

So... -tap tap taps on the table-

I see this RP has slowed down quite a lot ever since I left... in retrospect, should have seen that coming.

Is there a place for a Mad Egyptian Wannabe-God in this city? Or a new character, mebby?

Oh, and, if anyone likes Avatar, I'm looking for people to start a RP with.

Natural evolution of RPs - start real fast then dwindle as time goes by. Only difference is the rate in which this happens. Nothing to do with you in particular.

But yeah, with Talia and Odin gone, we could certainly use a major villainous player for the heroes to unite against. And you could continue the plot thread involving the missing artifacts.

And Les Yay with Tiger, too, can't forget that. But yeah, there's plenty of room for you.

Yeah man, you can come back if you want, no one's banned from this game (Except Phil) so there's no issue if you want to sign up again. Ra kinda got murdered by Anubis and DADT though... but this is a crazy comics universe, so he can just have been Only Mostly Dead or something. Post a new signup for him, though, I can't remember much about him, but I do recall that him being super durable was grating on people's nerves, so having a more concrete definition, or shifting the focus to other abilities, will be useful.

Also when's Lesbian Blue Beetle?

That wasn't Ra, that was Sunta.

Ah, my mistake. I sorta lumped several characters together in my head. I suppose this is why I keep telling people to stand out more and be more flashy when they make their characters do things.

Can I get a link to the fight with Ra?

Also, is Sunta's player still on? Cause I liked that character. Could I join back with her or would you guys prefer if I came up with a new villain?

(cause really apart from that spirit of revolution thing I don't have many ideas)

Sunta's player quit before the character got a chance to do anything.

I personally would prefer if you came back as the characters you already had, Ra and Jessica, since they're tied to characters and plot points already here. As for the Ra fight, I'm a bit too lazy to search right now, but I do remember it ending with Sheathe telling him that Phase ran off with both artifacts (though the truth was she had taken the second one herself and hid it with Zalyn's help). Leading to Ra storming off before switching back to Sharrik and being found in the freezer hiding by Durga.

-screeches to a halt-

Uh

Jessica?

Yes. You know, lesbian Blue Beetle. Remember your own characters!

Yes, the one who worked at the museum and "went to Canada".

Oh yeah, like Star pointed out, Sunta was the one who got killed. And I have no desire to bring him back, due to background plot muckery turning him into an NPC. You might as well just make a new villain.

But we're up to three characters at once now, so if you really want to make a similar villain (But with better plot integration and more thematic design), you still have space for one more character after LBB and Ra. But if you can't remember your characters, some of us certainly can't, they're going to need new or at least reposted signup sheets for perusal.

Okay, okay, okay. Let's work this out.

I'm gonna come back with Ra and Jessica. Fine with you guys?

But I do need to know what's going on right now and how I can slide 'em in.

Like... do you want a timeline of everything that happened, or just things now? Hmm... **scratches head**

...man, where do I even begin? Well, it's July 4th, afternoon... I'll just start with the scenes happening currently.

• Richard is having a BBQ and invited Tiger's family, as well as Cassandra (hoping she'll also rope in Zalyn and Kor'An).
• Amaterasu is in the city gardens hoping to settle her family issues with her two brothers. Tsukiyomi set up traps for her, which Alannah accidentally triggered and Ammy saved her from.
• Mayor Rail Dale (NPC) is hosting a barbeque too, which has promptly been crashed by Deadneck (NPC). DADT, Contrafuge, and Levi are all in the vicinity.
• Zalyn is in his spaceship having just gotten news from Vyvaen that Talia, who he just confessed his love to the other day, has evil plans for the city. Talia has also been arrested, which he no doubt will soon hear. Cassandra, as Sheathe, is on the city rooftops, having received a call from him that he wants to meet. She's waiting to be picked up.

That's... a start.

Okay...

So what if Sharik, the city's tech mogul, meets up with Talia on the prison to talk business, whilst Jessica calls Tiger as she came back from a trip to Canada?

... what's the deal with Canada again?

Also, Uniscorn's at the docks stopping a drug deal and he's all alone so it'd be cool if you could hop in there.

Well, Talia's player dropped, so that might be a bust. Also, the "Jessica goes to Canada" thing was a weak justification for why she wasn't around. Actually, I don't even remember it being mentioned in-game, just in discussion, so it could easily just not have happened.

I like it. Maybe she was in official museum business there.

Anyway, so, for Sharik... what place would a rich tech mogul go to?...

Clearly he'd go to a relatively unheard of Pub run by my second character.

Well, there's Robert Rossum, a robotics designer.

Oh that reminds me.

• Vigil's Watchdog is at Rossum's Laboratories, looking to get repairs from his daughter, Max.

If you want to do tech stuff, that'd be a good place.

EDIT: Though I should mention it's been a while since DSV posted.

Yeah I'd really prefer not having to deal with Talia anymore. As far as super-rich characters go, Belinda and Cassandra and Robert are player characters and would therefore promote player interaction. If it has to be an NPC, though, then I'd rather use Odin since I like him more, and I can come up with more puns.

I'm working on it! It's halfway finished! It would be all the way finished if I didn't have to read a book and write a paper about it by Tuesday.

How's about it? You're OK with a tech mogul showing up at the lab?

Sure, although you may have to wait a couple days for a response post.

From another game, I think Glado mentioned he was stuck without a computer, who's currently waiting for him, and is there any way to continue instead of the game halting without him?
