I commend your ability to play Zarryto brilliantly. I never would have went that far with my character but it matches your character perfectly.

Thank you! Yeah, just couldn't break character and play ball. Haha!

So if Zarytto is leaving, is something else going to come up that makes him stay or will you just roll up a new character?

 

[Genon]

Also @Kyero, sorry about not replying yet. Doing a paper due tomorrow.


@Anime King Kaleb, uh...I kinda forgot about Rakton. I generally wanted to move away from him, since @Kyero's standing orders mean that Rakton is literally forbidden from leaving his room onboard the ship for any purpose. I'm not quite clear what Rakton is allowed to do now anyway. Have the restrictions been lifted @Kyero? I'm debating having Karas teach him some engineering so that he can channel that passion towards something constructive.

It's entirely up to you what to do with him now. Korvaiis will remove Rakton's restrictions of movement, but will still refuse him the Zenkai until he demonstrates that he's learned how to truly be part of the team unless Rakton decides not to take the Zenkai anyway.


Also, @Lord Zanicus. Locking the Zenkai didn't return Zarytto to his original power level. His body adjusted to his new power over time, so he still has all the power he's gained until now. He just won't grow any further.

I'm not sure about that, have to see what happened IC.. If something turn up to have him stay, he will, otherwise, the following post might be his last. And I don't think I'll be rolling up another character after Zarytto but I'll be spectating!

OK. Just one thing about the plans you suggested for Karas, specifically biological and chemical warfare, and better food. Karas isn't an omnidisciplinary scientist. He excels at a lot of disciplines, but his skills lie strictly in the realm of machines, be it programming, designing, or building. Theoretically, he could use the computer in his arm to cheat his way through it for a while, but when it comes to dealing with flesh and blood, it's really imperative that you get a trained professional. Who is that professional? Why, Raze. Thus, for anything organic or medical, it would have to be an IC collaboration between me and @Anime King Kaleb.


EDIT: Honestly, some of those things could be Raze's domain entirely. Speaking of which, how will biological warfare and chemical warfare be handled against beings with superior power levels? If I infect Elise with a canister of some kind of bioweapon, what would happen?

@Kyero


I edited my post, just in case you can't see it.

 

[Kyero]

@Genon[/URL] @Zuka @Anime King Kaleb, you guys all have a say in this:


The only feasible way I can see that Zarytto would want to stay is if someone in the group got a very, very brief and minuscule taste of the Super Saiyan power.


Korvaiis was dreaming of a "golden light of unlimited potential" (The Super Saiyan Aura) right after his Zenkai was unlocked, and I was honestly toying with this idea in my last post but opted instead to begin Era's cycle to start having some fun with Zuka and the ladies of the group to mess with the guy's heads a bit once ovulation comes around.


But the gist of the idea is that one of the characters (I was thinking either Era or Korvaiis himself since he's the one who dreamt of it in the first place and she's the one who still "has a problem" that's messing with her body) enters something of a sudden and inexplicable daze. It's like a trance. They float into the sky and it's as if that giant ball of golden energy Korvaiis was dreaming about is right there in front of them (but it's not). They start reaching for this golden light and around the palm of their now open hand reaching for the light emerges a small aura of golden Ki (but their hand only).


EDIT: Now that I think about it, Eve might be the best candidate given her emotional state and the fact that Zarytto was starting to realize he'd miss her (a little).


This ball of golden energy emits an almost overwhelming "weight" of Ki upon the group, and they can sense that whatever that golden aura is... Is something that is ungodly powerful. If it releases this much of a "weight" in its Ki on a Saiyan with a power level just barley or not even at 100,000, what will it do at higher levels?


Does this all make sense?


This taste of the SS power would last only a few seconds and disappear almost as soon as it arrived, but that tiny taste is all I see Zarytto needing to feel to know that by this group's side is where he needs to be if he wants this ungodly power for himself one day.

Biological warfare especially will affect a being no matter how powerful they are. Think the heart virus from DBZ. Goku was a SS, but the heart virus hit him all the same. Imagine an artificial heart virus released upon an enemy from a package disguised as a gift or an object meant to symbolize our surrender? Such a weapon would be deadly.


I don't want anything like that to happen to Inecros, which is why I said we should wait a good while before using any ideas like that. But after Inecros and as we find more and more enemies like him with even higher levels of power, Karas will begin to see that the SS form on its own is not enough and that we need more to help even the playing field. I was actually planning on having one such major battle rely almost solely on the fact that he (and/or Raze) could come up with a way to infect the enemy and to even the odds and give us a chance to survive our battle.


Things like that. We can discuss more as we get closer to actually wanting and needing them IC though.

He'll stay I'll see to that


@Lord Zanicus


You guys really struggle to understand Zarytto. I find it hilarious. You push, he pushes back. It's not that complicated. Karas pretty much had it right, keep slightly stronger then him then ignore him, and he will continue to strive and become stronger. He needs a rivalry.

Well, Karas might have some issues with the idea of chemical and biological warfare. He would recognize why it's necessary, but the amount of suffering a bio-weapon or chemical weapon inflicts is truly enormous, far more than a punch through the head or even a straight-up ki blast disintegration, arguably worse than a beating from someone like Inecros. He would also be concerned because unlike robots or ki attacks, organic weapons have a tendency for collateral damage. If he releases a cloud of fungi into the air that kills the villain, it could also be blown to a nearby city, or even to the players. An injection would prevent this possibility, but then there's the way of getting it under the enemy's skin. The only way I could think of to safely transmit the disease in combat would be to use the trick from The Interview: a patch of the material, or a glove or something, coated in the substance, which is put on the villain's skin on contact, where it is then absorbed by said villain.

Heh. Well nobody said that IC our characters would have to understand him.


Anyway, what do you think of the previous idea of mine?

True enough.

You'd honestly have to check with @Lord Zanicus as it's not my character. I'd save it for another event down the track.


Don't worry I'll see to it Zarytto stays around. Eve's gunna be a badass and break the rules to talk to him. That's literally all he needs is someone to talk to.

If you say so.

I don't really see anything wrong with it honestly. But I was hoping for something that would cause Zarytto's personality to begin changing for the better, not just a carrot on a stick to keep him attached to us. I guess there really isn't a way to keep him here without baiting him (or exploiting his pride as @Zuka plans to do), but still. It'd be nice for him to go through character development sometime soon, since he's basically the Token Evil Teammate right now.

Fair enough.


Then I'll scrap the idea and we'll let Eve try her hand at getting him to play nice.

 

[Genon]

@Lord Zanicus


Also, I've had this idea for Karas to attempt to get through to Zarytto in a classic Saiyan way: a duel. Equal power levels, an open field devoid of life where they can go nuts, fighting to knockout, submission, or a broken bone. I've planned on having Karas win and letting this truly kickstart Zarytto's character development. What do you think?

Interesting! But I was thinking the bet would be something like if Zarytto wins, he gets to stay.. So he won and prove that he's not all talk! But Karas would definitely earn his respect for taking him head to head and on equal footing! That would kickstart his character!


What say you?

[/QUOTE]
Honestly, I wasn't even thinking of a bet in the first place, but if Karas was to make one I guess it'd be something along the lines of "If I win, you have to actually treat others as equals and not be a judgmental, arrogant prick."

 

[Lord Zanicus]

“And if I win, I get my Zenkai unlocked and gets to stay and see the end of Inecros!” that's what Zarytto would say..


But this is of course with the Commander's consent.. Otherwise, its still pointless.

 

[Lord Zanicus]

This is where Zarytto's characteristic mostly comes from when I created him..

Personality; Saiyans tend to share common personality traits, even at young ages. Being a war-like people; they share an innate enjoyment for conflict and fighting; choosing violence over peace with other races. Saiyans are typically very aggressive and hard-headed, with short explosive tempers. They are an intensely proud people, with a society heavily based around honor and social hierarchy. Most of them are inclined to be arrogant at times, leading them to allow enemies to gain advantages in battle just for fun. It appears (as demonstrated by Vegeta, Nappa, and Bardock) they have a tendency to let their emotions get the better of them when roused in stimulating situations - resulting in them at times making rash decisions. They also appear to lack sympathetic emotions as though by choice rather than by nature as shown by their relative lack of fear of death and uncaring attitude towards siblings, i.e. Raditz brutal beating of his long-lost brother Goku and Vegeta's indifference to his father's death. Clearly, Vegeta nor Nappa never showed any signs of sympathy for their fallen comrade Raditz when he was killed, they merely laughed and stated that he was only a "weakling", although Nappa did suggest bringing Raditz back to life with the Dragon Balls. Vegeta and Nappa themselves had a good degree of camaraderie between them, but Vegeta did not hesitate to kill Nappa later on when he displayed weakness by panicking at Goku's power. Most Saiyans also possess a keen fighting sense and understanding of battle, which allows them to acquire many new skills, such as overcoming the weakness of their tails, learning to detect ki, and achieving new fighting forms and transformations.

That last part is true.


The Commander will not agree to the Zenkai demand at all if Zarytto makes it, but if Karas makes an honest plea to let Zarytto back in if Zarytto can win the duel then Korvaiis will honor Karas' request.


However the Commander will still largely ignore him and treat him as if he's not there. Zarytto lost any respect the Commander once had for him so Korvaiis still sees him as nothing but unwanted space and will treat him as such.

@Anime King Kaleb @Genon @Kyero @Lord Zanicus


I'll wait for Raze to respond then depending on IC timings I'll have Eve sneak to Zarytto during the night while he is still imprisoned. can't have Korvaiis know and get introuble again D:
