Ooh, I think I'll make a character sheet later. This is pretty interesting.
-forever lurks...maybe.-
I will work on a character for this soon :)
Forgiveness is beyond justice, faith is superior than hope, redemption is better than perfection and love is greater than them all.Interest, character in development.
The graceless warrior, wielder of the edgeless blade, prophet of the old religions, writer of fluent nonsense, saviour of soul and song.Interst. Maybe. Considering recycling this.
The voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the groundInterested. So many options...
Did Psy actually clear this, out of interest?
"Yup. That tasted purple."Out of curiousity, is there any particular era in history these characters have to hail from? Or can they come from whatever point in time the creator wishes?
Am here, stuck in an epic battle between nostalgia and time. You have my sword.
'Being around you guys makes me go "wtf" instead of pondering the ever increasing dread of time' - EchoingSilence, 2023Yes.
Latter.
I want to recycle Koishi, since it didn't exactly work out last time.
Conception is sin Birth is pain Life is toil Death is inevitable.,.are canon characters allowed? Because for the first time in my life, I have one in mind.

They do have medals for almost, and they're called silver!Well, I promised I'd help out with this, so I guess I'm temporarily coming out of retirement from Tropes.
I'd prefer if you didn't go with canon characters.
Question: if there's going to be travel within the multiverse (I'm assuming) will there be an in-game means to do so, or should the players use their powers for it? This is for character design purposes.
Interested, I'm going to try and think of a character. But I was wondering, the powers the characters will be getting from the shards are powers that come from some character in fiction, right?
Yes I have. I have piqued interests, though I'm trying to decide on a powerset for Nicholas (Should I return to Ultraman Zero? Use a power from one of his spin-off counterparts? Finally use Kamen Rider Knight's Advent Deck, the power set I used for JTTM's inspiration?
Hm...I may consider joining.
[DATA LOST]OK, I was just checking.
Now I need ideas.
"Yup. That tasted purple."Based on prior experiences with the game series, it usually works so that powersets can either be based on a specific person in fiction or a powerset type in fiction. So you could have, for example, The Ripple in general, or you could use a specific character's abilities, skills and/or technology, for example very early on someone gained Simon Belmont's skills and whip.
Also in terms of transportation if you do have a power or tech that might let you travel through space or worlds, great. If you don't one will be provided for you.

...so what happened to all the other JTT Ms?
They do have medals for almost, and they're called silver!I'm a total newbie at forum RP Gs but I'd like to join. How weak or powerful are our characters' powers supposed to be?
There is no broom closet endingIt used to be that Super Weight 3 was the limit. The problem is that Super Weight is only useful for comparisons between characters within a single universe, and gets wildly inconsistent when used for crossover comparisons.
"Yup. That tasted purple."It doesn't really help that at least some works being crossed over have their own Random Power Ranking, or one compiled by a fansite.
Discussion thread.
Roleplay thread.
Hello, this is an interest check/sign up thread for an RP called Journey Through the Multiverse. As some of you know, this is based on the RP with the same name that was on this site a few years ago. There's a whole story behind the creation of this RP, but for now, let's move onto the plot.
Plot
In many worlds, there is a form of energy that people use, commonly referred to as "the Power". Throughout these worlds, it has been given different names: chakra, mana, magic... in other worlds, it is more technically advanced and provides tools and weapons that can turn the tide of battle. Rarely do these two things exist in the same world... but there are some worlds that lack the mystical energy and the technological advancements. Our world is one of those worlds. We live here, unaware of the existence of the other worlds, though we still read their stories through books, movies, shows, and games, discussing them with friends and family and people on the internet through fan forums and such, unaware of what's going on out there.
For there are two factions, both gathering tech and powers for their own purposes. One faction, Dai-Shocker, takes people, power and technology from other worlds, all in the hopes of one day ruling the multiverse with an iron fist. The other faction, the Red Pirates, explores the deep meaning of "the Power" and tries to unlock its true potential, eventually finding a way to give "the Power" to worlds that lack it, through shards- a crystallized copy of another being's spiritual energy, which lets them grant the population from worlds without magic or technology the ability to have one of them.
This massive development was the straw that broke the camel's back, and a massive war followed, one between Dai-Shocker and the Red Pirates. Thousands of lives and even worlds were lost as each faction tried to destroy itself, until the final battle, in which the Red Pirates were destroyed. However, on a last attempt at giving the multiverse a chance to fight back, they released upon the Earth thousands upon thousands of shards, giving the humans who once thought their stories were fiction to become the heroes- or the villains- of a journey through the multiverse...
Information
Hello! Thank you for reading the plot. My name is Stratofarius, and I'll be your GM. Like I said at the beginning, this RP is based on a previous RP from this very same forum, and I'd like to explain to both newbies and experts the reason behind my 'revival' of this concept.
At the beginning of my time here at TV Tropes, I could barely write a post that was more than two sentences. Normal roleplaying terms like ghosting were foreign concepts to me. I could not write a decent character if my life depended on it. But through this RP, I evolved. I became a much better writer, and also managed to find a lot of new friends that are still with me to this day.
This is why I'm bringing back this RP. This will be a lighthearted, fun RP that newbies and experts can play in together. Is this your first time playing? Come right in. Is this your tenth year in the site? You're just as welcome. This is a place for players to learn while having fun.
However, just because we're welcoming newbies, that does not mean we do not have some rules.
An additional rule, this one directed at expert players, is that be a mentor. The standards are not going to be as high in here as in other R Ps. We're not asking sheets that would make Shakespeare cry. We're not asking for posts that would make speechwriters gasp in awe. This is a learning place. So don't yell at newbies. Try to teach them about how you write, about how you do things. Because this newbie you're yelling at could have one day been your best writing pal, participating in amazing R Ps you now don't have the chance to be a part of. Remember: we were all newbies once.
Sign Up Sheet
Newbies, before you write this sheet, don't be afraid to base this on yourself. This is what we call a self-insert, and in some other R Ps, it is frowned upon, but here?... ^do it! If you want to write you finding a shard and gaining the power to be invisible, do it! Anything goes- just as long as it's not too overpowered.
Player List
Can't wait for your sheet. Feel free to leave in any questions, comments and criticisms!
