SUITFALL: A mecha/power armor RP

Wow, we're actually more balanced than I thought, nice

@Darkdestinysoul: Thanks for pointing that out, I misread. I'll go ahead and edit that part.

If anything, we're tilted a bit more in favor of the Heavier sort of mechs with the biggest group being a balance in the center of Medium size types. Mesh only has one proper suit with one companion Avatar being able to be classified as one.

Yeah, but I imagined that there were way less light and fortress size mechs with most players taking medium or heavy, though save for mesh its quite balanced with one medium more than everything else.

If I ever end up having to play another mech, I'm gonna make a Fortress-class with a huge siege cannon on it.

I'll make a drone carrier that'll actually use all 12 drone slots, that'll be fun

Thats what I am going to do if I have to re-roll.

Meanwhile Charlie's just here with his Mesh suit, bein' an invisible dick to everyone.

I guess Mesh is less interesting because you can't really do direct combat with it, so you're relegated to a stealthy playstyle no matter what.

I dont know, I have mine setup with a reasonable amount of defense.

And you can really be a dick with remote explosives. >.>

i can hack anything

• Age: 21
• Gender: Female
• Biography: Born as the daughter of a Japanese father and an American mother, Laura has always been a girl who strived to meet the high expectations placed upon her. She's been a straight-A student, and impressed her teachers and her peers with her intellect. But she always felt as though she had lacked a true purpose beyond that. That all changed in her senior year of college, however, when one of the cubes crashed down to the ground right in front of her outside her dorm building. Looking through the options, she began to think about how horribly flawed the nation was, now many criminals ran free while the innocent were wrongly accused, and just how she could change all that with armor and enhancements like these. Selecting her desired options, she was surgically altered, given a cyberbrain and infused with nanites, and was given a collapsed form of her armor in the form of a bracelet. Now considering herself to be an augmented and higher-functioning being, she believes it is her duty to bring about the justice that the current judicial system fails to provide, and personally punish those criminals who think they've gotten off scot-free...

So I just realized Storage and Medkit are both free.

Uh... am I allowed to add those? >_>

Yeah, you can just throw those on for free, but using a medkit doesn't guarantee much more than a normal medical kit unless you've got Hydra 2. They come default on all suits, I just chose not to include them in, for instance, mine, because they aren't purchased.

• Name: Tony Barnes
• Suit Name: Chromeheart
• Age: 31
• Gender: Male
• Biography: Recently arrived in Marbury to put his family problems behind him and start his life anew, Tony has been scraping by however he could for the past few months. Mostly, this meant odd jobs working construction, building depressingly identical suburban houses and painting them mind-numbingly dreary shades of pastel colours. He'd been trying to find more steady employment, as a mechanic or a driver or even just hauling boxes in a warehouse, but with the local economy in a dreary slump, he kept running into the same few dozen competing applicants, and most of them weren't out-of-towners. He'd even started to seriously consider turning to less above-board means of earning his pay, even though it meant making the same mistakes his family had been making for generations, the same shit he was trying to get away from, when the unthinkable happened.

Let's go~

• Name: Jimmy "Deadeye" Falcon
• Suit Name: Non Omnis Moriar
• Age: 64
• Gender: Male
• Biography: Back in a day he was Major James Falcon of US Army. Having obtained a nickname of Deadeye for his impeccable accuracy when it came down to manning cannons of all sorts - artillery, tanks, you name it - he had seen his fair share of battles and ultimately settled down back in Marbury, his good ol' home town. He was perfectly content to just live his well-deserved pension, helping out in the community service, tending to Marbury's large flock of sparrows and in general being this cool old person that everybody in town knew and could safely say "yep, this guy is legit".
  • Cue the Suitfall. A sudden influx of definitely explosive and dangerous tech from out of nowhere was easy to put together given Jimmy's knowledge of some of the inhabitants here in Marbury. Some of these miscreants would certainly try to use these robots for nefarious purposes. Fortunately, no-longer-retired Major of US Army could use his own suit to even the odds, root out the bad guys and deal with them properly: pummeling with ordnance into submission or expiration.
• Goals: This is Jimmy's town and he will make sure that anyone that wishes to do ill to it will answer to him. To that end he wishes to cooperate with more righteous suit users and law enforcement to bring down any troublemakers and villains within Marbury.
• Appearance: Don't disturb the birds.
