...WELL, can't be that diffrent. As soon as Space Ghost makes a character, I'm going to start the RP.
Think V and Kkut will join?
Good to be backWell, everything character and mecha-wise would be incompatible here so I would need to make entirely different things. At least I now have the excuse to make a mecha with electrical attraction manipulation. Though... Do the organizations study the Ascended remains or do they just obliterate them with reckless abandon? Additionally, do the cities have any form of protection besides mecha or do the populace just have to hope they aren't completely dead after a battle?
Furthermore, expect plenty of Ascended concepts. Though question, are there ones that borderline humanoid or have the ability to assume human form? I can somehow imagine the Ascended being, well, ascended Earthen lifeforms.
"The Omniverse is the collection of all possibilities, and all possibilities must eventually come to pass."Lookin' at your changes to the sign-up sheet, looks like I can't really call the BIG a 'Giant among Giants@ anymore. Since the RP hasn't started yet, could I look for a new mecha and make some changes to my sign-up? I think somethin' with a little more firepower might be appropriate.
Either that or I scale it's size up to the size cap.
GIVE ME YOUR FACEWell knowing thy enemy would be better than just trying to brute force victory against them. That, and how the cities are protected besides mecha sounds kind of important for character applications. Though, I take it the Ascended run quite the gauntlet of abilities and forms?
"The Omniverse is the collection of all possibilities, and all possibilities must eventually come to pass."Both are accepted.
@Kkut, Titans are the best defense, but the other countries at least have some countermeasures, such as Forcefeilds, cannons, the works. And if you really must know, yes. They do study the Ascended whenever possible.
@Philosopher, Windigo?

Good to be backYes, Windigo. Creatures of Natve American lore in, common in tribes of Atlantic Canada. They're often associated with snowstorms and are supermetaphors for starvation, canabilism, as well as the harshness of winter. Sometimes they are depicted as giants that grow in proportion to what they devour, never truly sustainin' their hunger.
Sometimes spelled Wendigo.

GIVE ME YOUR FACEI'd like to join by the way... However, I won't be using Celeste for this story, because knowing how sensible that girl is, such a bleak and grim environment would be devastating for her mental and emotional health.
So, I'll try a different concept for this one, something more simple: It will be a mix between Bizarro/Heroic Darth Vader, Darkwing Duck, Silverbolt, and a dash of the Pyro... You know pretty standard, run-of-the-mill stuff, definitely not something of Celeste's levels of complex.
...I'll post the entry once I figure out what to do about the mech. I want for it to be a mix between Exbein Ashe
and Black Getter Robo.
Also, a bit of Shameless Self Promotion! I'll be starting my own RP pretty soon, too: Guardian Force: A Super Robot Story
. It's definitely Lighter and Softer, and far more idealistic than either this story, or JR's one (my intention for it is to turn it into GaoGaiGar + Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Dai-Guard + Patlabor... More or less)... But, don't be deceived! That doesn't mean everything will be sunshine and rainbows. There'll be plenty of room for drama and harsh battles in it.
...Also, I'll be using Celeste for that one... And, it would actually be neat if Loke could join to the cast. She would fit perfectly fine in the setting, and it would be a good chance to continue with their character arc there.

"It's better to burn out... THAN TO FADE AWAY!"It's great to have you with us V. as for the Concept...Bizarre is a word. Yes, interested in seeing what the hell that ends up being. As for your Rp, I'm interested in joining.
@Dungeon, you're fine.
The Roleplay will start as soon as V has his character sheet up.

Good to be backYeah, I'll be joining. I'll probably either use Cornelius Hawking (Not the good kind of insane and unstable) or Hal Quarrel (Strong silent type, will tear you limb from limb if you hurt his little sister). Or perhaps... Perhaps a humanoid Ascended that fully refuses to acknowledge its an Ascended? I doubt there'll be any half-human hybrids. Really, I'm not entirely sure what to do for my character. The mecha, on the other hand, will probably have a greater density of melee weapons than ranged weapons and I'll do a little research regarding that stuff beforehand.
Though yes, I'll be making an application within a few days. By the way, whats the standard mecha control system and whats the average amount of time until someone (can) becomes a pilot?
"The Omniverse is the collection of all possibilities, and all possibilities must eventually come to pass."Yeah, no Half humans. Sorry about that. There's not really a standard set of Titan driving. Mo-cap, control panel. Though not remote Control. If you're wondering, it's about a week or two of training, though all the characters submitted thus far have completed it. And please, try to get the submission in quickly, I'd like to start the RP by the day after tomorrow at the latest.
And a question to all of you, would you guys like me just to offer all the concepts of Ascended up front and have a vote for which ones appear?

Good to be back

Well, I make a concept, put an intrest check/ sign up out in the sign up section and watch it die quickly.
