So the base is in space?

Nope it's in a city surrounded by a giant dome that protects it from eldritchian attacks

Earthbound. Because Space, between Lagrange points 4 and 1 to be precise is where the Alien ship is hanging out, unnoticed and unseen by all on Earth.

I thought It was outside Echo city.

Ah okay.

Does that mean that it's the only habitable city, and it's just implied that our characters live there?

Far from the habitable one actually, just one of several in the globe. And all of the pilots reside in the base.

The characters just live there

It's partially inside and outside the dome.

So it can act as one of the entrances to the city for pilots or SERVE Personnel

That'll work. I think I've got something.

No it isn't, if it was; our pilots wouldn't have had enough time to stop Erdedrache from crashing into the dome.

edited 11th Jul '13 4:58:07 AM by Strigon

The entrance provided by the SERVE Base is closed off with the strongest metal for its door.

Erdedrache would've taken several tries to crash it open and the pilots already had him taken care of.

Ehhh... Wrong! It took it's time to get to the base, implying that it was pretty damn far and since we managed to intercept it in such a short amount of time; goes to show that the base was indeed outside the base. Unless of course many of our mechs (Save for Epine Noir) were suddenly supersonic for some reason?

Besides I had established from the start that SERVE's base in Eacho City was partially insdie and outside the dome. As it seems you're confused over it.

Link that part then.

Base-ception, man. It's Bases all the way down.

On smartphone sheet later.

EDIT: Sheet now.

• Name: Xavier and Yvonne La Rue (Two pilots, for Pacific Rim style synchro-crap.)
• Age: 19 (Xavier), 15 (Yvonne)
• Gender: Male (Xavier), Female (Yvonne)
• Appearance: Xavier◊, Xavier,pilot suit◊, Yvonne◊, Yvonne, suit. Minus sword and helmet of course.◊
• Personality:
  • Xavier is like your typical Knight in Shining Armor. Polite, gentle, softspoken, and one hell of a ladies man. He does have a bit of a teasing side, though, and he WILL troll people he really likes...which includes his sister, by the way. In battle, he's a whole different person, he's cold, efficient, and scarily ruthless, often sacrificing everything for victory. He hates the Alien scum with a passion, and he will do everything in his power to see them all BURN. Has a huge case of survivor's guilt, and may seem nigh-suicidal at times.
  • Yvonne is...something else. She's hotheaded,aggressive, foulmouthed, a tomboy. She dislikes all the girly stuff, and simply wants to kick as much ass as possible. She does have a hidden romantic side, which she vehemently denies, the great big Tsundere that she is. In battle, she's of the opinion that a victory with casualties is no victory at all, ironically making her the more moral warrior when compared to her brother. Unlike her brother, she believes in living in the now, and has already let go of their traumatic past.
• History: Half-British and Half-french children of a rich couple. The La Rue siblings lived happily with their parents...until the day the aliens invaded. They...obliterated a good chunk of the city that the siblings and their parents were living in. By some twist of fate, they were the only survivors, buried under the corpses of the parents who protected them. At that time, Xavier was 12, Yvonne was 8. From that day on, Xavier vowed to kill those who slaughtered his parents. He joined the military, and TRAINED HIS ASS OFF. Yvonne joined soon after, worried about her brother. Due to their natural talent, the siblings became the first of an experimental mecha program: The Twin Drive System. They were soon sent to hte front lines: Their first real test, to fight alongside SERVE.
• Mecha Name: Avalon, Composed of two separate components: Pendragon-I (Xavier), and Camelot-II (Yvonne)
• Mecha Appearance: The Avalon.◊ Pendragon-I is the main humanoid shape, the backpack and the huge cannon make up Camelot-II.
• Stats:
  • Height: 20 meters
  • Weight: 37 tons
  • Speed: 720 km/h (Boosting) Mach 3 (Flight)
  • Power output: 50 Megawatts at a minimum.
• Armaments:
  • Pendragon-I:
    • Armor Piercer: A knife made out of an alloy that can pierce alien armor.
    • Beam Saber: Basic energy based sword.
    • Vulcan Guns: While ineffective against larger targets, these guns can be used to shoot down enemy suits at close range or incoming missiles.
  • Camelot-II:
    • Beam Cannon: Basic, medium powered beam weapon.
    • Vulcan Guns: While ineffective against larger targets, these guns can be used to shoot down enemy suits at close range or incoming missiles.
  • Together:
    • Mega Beam Cannon: It has two modes; a compact configuration, which functions like a beam rifle, and barrel extended, which forms a powerful beam cannon. The beam cannon mode is an incredibly powerful artillery piece, capable of taking down motherships.
    • Shield w/Retractable Heat Rod: The heat rod is normally stored in the shield and can be used when not activiated to trip or entagle opponents. When activated the heat rod becomes super-heated, letting it cut through enemies easily. This weapon is useful for battling enemies with anti-beam coatings.
    • Twin Drive System: Powered by the synchronization of its two pilots, the Avalon is a powerful mech. The more in-tune the siblings are, the better the performance of the machine, even capable of breaking its limits, singlehandedly doing what a squad can. Conversely, the less synchronized the pilots, the weaker the unit, and if the pilots are in complete discord, the Avalon might freeze.

I approve.

I accept

Yaaaaaaaaaaay~!

Hey, um. Can someone write me an intro post?

I can't really do that but we'll help you in writing one for yourself.

So far we just introduced another new character and player earlier on.

He arrived in by having his character and his mech arrive outside SERVE's base in Echo City and introduce himself.

You can do something similar.

Okaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Is it alright if I change Sameul's melee weapon over to a weaponized electrical guitar?

Make it into a sonic weapon-cum-power weapon and you're good to go.

Translation please?

Yeah sure

A weapon that uses the power of rock to blow alien scum up or as a polearm to wreck their shit medieval style.

Yes, both at the same time.

Axe normally, Mecha-sized Guitar in Overcharge mode.
