Can I make my Superhero a Science Hero with Power Armor?

Riddle me this!

Who likes Magical Girls?

Who likes Cop Dramas and Detective Shows?

Would anyone want an RP where you play as Magical Girls Cops/Detectives? From chasing regular criminals and real-world monsters to demons and creatures of a magical persuasion?

"Can I make my Superhero a Science Hero with Power Armor?"

Yes, easily. There's an example here note  if you want a look. Badass Normals are an option as well.

Interesting.

Sooooo... anybody interested in this RP?

So since no one is interested in a Magical Girl Monster Hunting roleplay... How about a Super-Soldier roleplay where your character is used as a black ops unit by their government, having to avoid revealing themselves so a World War doesn't start.

@Hydra: Perhaps the Magical Girl detective cops could be Cursed with Awesome social pariahs, forced to use their powers to stop said criminals and monsters?

I'm interested in the superhero rp, as a badass normal. I was considering an Oracle character, but realized a Voice with an Internet Connection would probably be better as the GM's character.

@Kkutwar: I was thinking something more along the lines of, like, the Jedi from Star Wars, how Jedi are found via the force when young and when they come of age are taken to the temple to be trained. Just replace Jedi with Magical Girls, Temple with Police Girls Academy, and midichlorians with magic.

Alrrright, glad to see the interest. I'm going to get the signups thread up for the weekend.

Doesn't necessarily preclude them from being social pariahs. There's plenty of hate for cops here, and its plenty common to shun & obsessively command a powerful minority. Plus, it honestly must be pretty sucky regularly getting sent to deal with crime and dangerous monsters. So, there's likely to be some condemning of Magical Girls who refuse to fight.

Interesting proposal, but it wouldn't go with the tone I'm aiming for.

I had an idea for a Magical Girl character who would probably be part of a team of misfits, the type of person who gets sent in when "Ok, the collateral damage she'll cause is PROBABLY less then the damage the bad guy will do unchecked..."

Okay, I'm putting this up again. It's a RP based on vintage science fiction, pulp journals and Frank R. Paul's art, which you can see here. It involves various "adventurer ships" travelling out of Solar System to the untamed Outer Space, which has riches, for various reasons. It also has pirates, like these, and planetary defense forces.

I really would appreciate more players.

Okay, I'm really looking to seriously run another roleplay alongside Destiny Drive Third so... How about a roleplay that is, mechanics-wise, a combination of inFamous and Prototype? Would be called New Genesis Fame.

I would also love to run a Original Flavor inFamous or Heroes roleplay.

Aside from the anti-paranormal agency (OC characters) with a Myth Arc, I propose one more:

Something akin to Black Lagoon, but based in another country in SEA. Thinking either Vietnam for now or Thailand as a shoutout. Players assume the role of PM Cs living in either country.

More details to those interested.

Would there be interested for an RP that's short by design? To elaborate, I mean an RP that's only meant to go on for a couple months or so rather than the better part of a year or more. I just figured it'd be a good way for me to practice GMing before moving on to ones that are meant to be longer.

As to what such an RP would be about...I don't know exactly. It'd probably be either a fantasy-esque romp or some kind of Slice of Life thing. Possibly a crossover of some kind as well. I'm just wondering if a "micro-RP" would be interesting to anyone or not.

[up][up] I'm interested. If it's that and some sort of crossover. Though, I'd have to see the sign up thread before I decide to join.

I have come up with a new RP. It's based on the Zann Consortium from Star Wars Empire At War: The Forces Of Corruption expansion.

The RP would be about playing as a mercenary for the Zann Consortium and doing seeing the more. . . criminal part of the Star Wars universe, including both the Hutt Cartel and the Black Sun pirates as major faction in the RP.

The RP would be called: Legacy of the Consortium (name by arcada188)

That RP I have planned for revival (Based on experience on Savage's "Mercenaries" RP) is going to be titled "A Holiday in X [Country name]" to be misleading on purpose when it's about PM Cs doing work in Southeast Asia.

And it's no holiday for obvious reasons.

Going back to that micro-RP idea, the idea I'm currently leaning towards is a big dance party/some other kind of big get-together for ghosts. It'd be set in a haunted mansion/castle, whose proprietor is either a ghost who wants to meet other ghosts, or a still-living person who wants to make their mansion even more haunted for whatever reason. It wouldn't be combat focused and would generally be on the lighter side of things, but the fact that the PCs are all ghosts (and thus, dead) and the fact that they'd all be able to explore the mansion would still leave room for drama. It may or may not be a crossover as well (if I do decide to make it a crossover, expect a guest appearance from Napstablook if no one signs up as them).

If this sort of thing would be appealing to anyone, anyway.
