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.

...

Name: Sabrina

Appearance: "I know you will lose today. If you wish, I'll battle you anyway."

Universe: Pokemon... the Main Games, Not Team Rocket Elite Manga Sabrina or Crazy Psycho Anime Sabrina

Personality: Sabrina is enigmatic and cold, perhaps bordering on callous. However, she is not evil and unlike former Gym Leader Giovanni, treats her Pokemon with kindness and respect. In fact, she has closer of a connection to her Pokemon than other Gym Leaders because she can communicate with them telepathically.

Abilities/Powers:

  • Psychic: Sabrina herself is telepathic and telekinetic. However, she can only move and stop things with telekinesis that a normal human could move and stop physically. With telepathy, she can communicate with others using only her mind.
  • Alakazam: The Pokemon Sabrina had on hand when she was taken from her world, which is telepathic as well and thus, like Dusknoir, can communicate with humans through telepathy. He knows Psychic, which damages the opponent with a blast of Psychic energy; Reflect, which creates a psychic wall between the attacker and Alakazam; Recover, which is a move that heals Alakazam of some of the damage he receives; and Focus Blast, a energy ball move which is against type since it is a Fighting-type move.

I can add more Pokemon or add moves to Alakazam if you like, but the reason for me going with just one is in respect to Dusknoir's player. I felt it would unfair to him if I got a whole team, while he just got the one.

Consider this application either a back-up for Chun-Li or as a second player character if I am allowed the latter.

I think you're allowed to have a second player... barring an objection from the other G Ms of course.

I did ask Troy specifically via PM, Strato, since there had been some confusion that I might end up with an overpowered character due to... well, Crazy Psycho Bitch Anime Sabrina. I can send you the PMs I had with him as proof of it.

@Second characters:

Second characters are reserved for people who've shown they have the skill etc. to pull it off.

@GG:

From the quick look over I had, she looks okay.

Before you consider adding a second character to Infinities... Why don't you consider applying for Taskforce Sifuri or Eclipse of the Gods before that?

Yes, I did apply for a second character, but I also applied for every single AGOG RP with a character before I even started to consider a second one for Infinities. I joined as Chun-Li in Infinities, but then joined as Maria Renard for Magic in Sifuri and Queen Zeal in Eclipse. Only then did I join as B.B. Hood in Sifuri for Science. Only after all of that, did I try to push my luck and apply as Sabrina in Infinities as a second character. Even then, I may not keep Chun-Li around. Sabrina was, at least, decided on as a backup for me.

Yeah, the only ones who automatically get second characters are GMs. Because we're just awesome like that and totally not nepotic jerks. tongue

Otherwise, you're going to have to prove that you can handle juggling two characters.

EDIT: Also, no objections to Sabrina.

If I can be cleared for two, I think most of us can. I'm hardly a paragon of excellence.

By the way guys..I'm kinda against second characters for everyone even if they are 'worthy'. The thread will get hopelessly cluttered and confused in crossovers and oh yeah! the endgame.

That reminds me, I've had the profile for a second character sitting on the backburner for a while now; but I probably won't be signing up with him for the forseeable future, if at all.

Remember that second characters are meant to be the exception, not the rule. tongue
