The Good, The Bad and The Spandex: Discussion Thread

I think it should be an army, since there are still many Parasites left on Multiverse.

Unless it's a small group, consisted of super powered duplicators like Rine.

In that case, then, everyone who wishes to join the Dimensional Guard is welcome. Again, not expected to be full time, just the more the merrier.

Re:Sin Fellows vs Virtues, Virtues started out as a twisted sort of Chaos expy, and they do feed off of emotion, but since Sin Individuals only feed off of actual sin, I'm sure they could organise a sort of timeshare~

Additionally, the Virtues don't really have a hierarchy like that, so they're very individual compared to Demon Feudalism over there. And their goals would probably wildly veer off from each other, so I'm seeing few similarities anyway. The experience of meeting an individual from either one may be similar, but hey, I've seen far more similar concepts in both comics and RPs before, so I don't mind at all if you don't!

Hm, I should probably expand on the Nordic lore a bit at some point (Ja, I now have finally fully decided that Fyodor will be Nordic... chalk the Plague Doctor mask up to Early-Installment Weirdness and Rule of Cool.

I got one!

So for anyone still open, pop on in for some Expanse Style Rocketry!

Heya! I'm wondering where I could get in on the action.

Parasite invasion? That does sound like a sensible time for a random street-hero to chime in!

Their players don't seem awfully active, I'm afraid.

This Roken guy seems like a fairly big shot, so the snake parasite is probably done for already, right?

The Parasites are bit too powerful for the Chickening I fear. :P

And Dawn is a character I currently control (yes as GM I can control inactive characters for story purposes. I try not to do that, but I did set him up a short while ago so anyone who had nothing else to do could fight him.)

If Possibly Quite Insane wants Chickening could run into his wonderfully oddball characters like Strip Poker. It would be a riot!

-*blink* My spellchecker doesn't correct Chickening? Is that an actual word??

What? Certainly the Chickening can handle it xD

In all seriousness though, I did intend the Chickening, while comical, to ultimately be a strong 3 on the Super Weight scale, the stated maximum allowed. The hero was empowered by an extraplanar being, after all. Did the description make it sound too weak? If that's the case, I kindly ask for permission to make it's power more explicit, since I'd like to take part in major conflicts in the future.

Yeah, I read about Strip Poker xD

Uh, I don't think it's an actual word, no. oO

I'm getting a Tick-ish vibe here. Am I wrong?

...Well. That was abrupt. Roken is (presumed) dead, and the Parasites have retreated to who knows where.

...So, do you think Chickening will join the Dimensional Guard?

I think Chickening might interact with Terror Duo (spcifically Chris), since they are now approved. I mean, they have quite a few similarities, mainly:

Granted power by extraplanar beings, animal-themed superpower, hero and being Cloud Cuckoolander.

And Foundation for the Future, who are after animal-themed supers, might be after Chickening, as well as Chris.

And... I'm sure you are aware of it now, but apparently there is a word chickening. And a Shining parody film called Chickening.

Highlander 2: The Chickening.

It... might have been an inspiration .

I don't see why not, though I'm not entirely sure what they are beyond what's obvious from the name. Still, where evil is afoot, the Chickening will follow.

Sure, he seems like a sporty sort! And yes, the Foundation might really be wanting to enslave poor Chickening... Of course, I had forgotten about "chickening out", and I saw the parody for the first time when I googled Chickening (some weird shit).

Wouldn't that have been a riot .

Still, I'm wondering if the Super Weight thing is cleared up now. Sijo?

I should probably make a concept for the Dimensional Guard, but I'll wait for clarification. I'll explain it briefly (well, briefly for me )

The Dimensional Guard is a newly formed team currently consisting of three members. (That is, Rine and his copies, Valan/Gatewatcher, and Crusader/Elizabeth.)

Their goal is mainly to target multi-dimensional threats, such as the now defeated Roken Eniq, or the elusive Lord Radioactive Chicken and Ham Sandwich. (characters may or may not have been altered for dramatic purposes.)

The team is accepting of all members willing to join, and they are all part-time except for Rine Anok. (as he is basically doing what he is built to do) There are no costumes, and although I would love to imagine Chickening in a spandex vest, that simply won't happen. They are obliged, however, to wear a Hardlite pendant with a letter "D" for identification.

Go ahead; Traveler will probably join at some point as well. But let's not get too crazy with the silly concepts; I don't mind the occasional Chickening as long as its well explained, but multiple food-themed characters might be a bit much.

PS. Oh, Chickening as in chickening out. Never heard it by itself, only as a phrase. (This is a good moment to remind the audience I'm primarily a Spanish speaker. )

By the by, who is playing Misty ATM?

Emily, I believe.

Right, sorry. Will add something with Misty to my last post.

EDIT: Done, and sorry, I had a school thing today. 'Twas hectic, but now it's done.

I'm gonna be out for the day on Saturday, so I won't post then. I should post on Sunday though.

Quick note though: How would the Dimensional Guard make a new HQ? It's a spaceship, after all, so it's not exactly gonna be easy.

Waiting for Go A to post before I do.

Wait, what.

Sorry, should've phrased that better. Meant that I'll post when something happens at TALOS. I forgot you'd already posted. Guess I'm waiting for Sijo.

I'm gonna wait for a fight to happen where I can swoop in.

Maybe you can join in during Terror Duo vs female mummy sorceress fight that I'm planning. I just need someone to post something, so that I can post. I know I could just edit my last post, but that post is already long enough.

Sorry guys, I've been terribly busy.

I should be making a larger post tonight.
