Multiple Settings I Hate Waiting in Another World! OOC

[Coryen2]

Welcome to the OOC thread! This is where we can post thoughts and ideas about what we are doing in the RP, inform each other if posting will be delayed, and any and all sorts of just hanging out can happen. Play nice, and have fun!

I will admit that when I posted, I expected to only get two or three people interested in the concept, so thank you all for joining! 10 posts between 9+ people is an awful lot of reading to try and incorporate into one story. So, I would like to propose to you all the option of duplicating the RP and running them concurrently. That would be 5 people in one thread and 5 people in the other with me doubling up to run things unless anyone else joins. Please vote in the poll and add your thoughts on this.

 

[Nellancholy]

If you can handle it,I think that's a great idea.

(I don't see a poll,though.)

So fast! I am glad you don't want to wait!

 

[Idea]

Personally I'm fine either which way.

 

[Coryen2]

Oh, and feel free to put your first post up as soon as you like, everyone! The Section 1 post if fair game. If I didn't make it clear, the characters do not have any interaction between each other until Section 2, so you don't need to react to what anyone else has written for this part.

 

[Shoya]

I'm honestly okay with either, so whichever you find easier is best!

 

[Nellancholy]

There we go,I've posted to keep the ball rolling

 

[Idea]

Nellancholy permission to have my character know who yours is?

Spoiler: Posts

Section 1: The DMV
You will have one post to introduce your character. That's right! Since we don't have time to wait, we don't have time for Character Sheets.

Section 2: Powers and Places
I will assign a random power to each player via Conversation and provide a description of the world you land in via Post in the game thread.
You will have 5 posts to explore the world, your power, and interact with other players before....

Section 3: More Powers and More Places
Off to another world! This time, you choose what power you accepted.
Again, I will post the world description in the thread. After only 3 posts this time....

Section 4: Conclusion
You are back at the DMV having missed your number being called.
You still have your powers, you can still travel to other worlds.
Now is the time to create your own ending post.
Alternate realities exist, and each player can craft their own ending irrespective of what anyone else does.
(This is also where I, personally, would create a full CS as a recap)

I vote one thread.

Like I know it's a lot of interest but IME we won't see all of us at the end line despite only 10 posts each. I'd rather be wrong tho lol

 

[SillyString]

I don't mind either option, frankly. Whichever you find easier to keep.

 

[Coryen2]

Hey, all! we are coming in on our one week time table! Conversations for superpowers incoming. SillyString and Wildcard888 You still have some time to post, but the cut-off is just around the bend. If you need another day or two, let me know, otherwise, I look forward to meeting your characters!

 

[Coryen2]

And just as a fun little glimpse, the way I am assigning powers is this:

1. Elasticity
2. Energy Healing
3. Enhanced Durability
4. Bio-Electricity
5. Prehensile Hair
6. Astral Projection
7. Teleportation
8. Telekinesis
9. Claw Retraction
10. Refresh
11. Shapeshift
12. Power Replication
13. Energy Construction
14. Sublimation
15. Mirage
16. Transmutation
17. Fire Breathing
18. Perfected Balance
19. Phasing
20. Aegis

Using the above list, I will roll a d20 when assigning powers to everyone. Once a power is assigned, it cannot be assigned again and I will re-roll. For example. if I rolled Telekinesis for Nellancholy (who posted first) and then later rolled Telekinesis again for Idea , I would keep rolling until I received a result that had not yet been claimed. I have done my best to balance out these powers. Some of the more powerful ones have restrictions to how they can be used, and some of the weaker ones have increased creative usage. The extent of the power limiting and adjustments needed for them to work with your character can be worked on in the discussion.

Any concerns with this process? (definitions of powers are purposefully withheld at the moment) I will also be posting who has what powers here with definitions once we enter Section 2)

 

[Nellancholy]

I think it's a fine and interesting way to make the decision while keeping the pace up

 

[Shoya]

Sounds cool!

 

[Gaius Danius Griinia]

I'm hoping I don't get things that don't together like a reverse poison jar

 

[Coryen2]

Ah, good call out, Gaius! With this process, by the end of the RP each character will have two powers. One from this process and one that we will workshop together via conversations. So while the first power is random, the second one will be designed by each of you and then signed off on by me.

 

[Coryen2]

Welcome to Section 2 of the story!
Your find yourself free falling towards a beautiful, purple-hued planet. But wait. How will you survive impact? Your body aches, there is an odd taste in your mouth. You recall in a flash seeing some sort of platform existing outside of existence, but it is all too much for your mind to take in. A few seconds above the ground, you find innate knowledge of your new abilities has been gifted to you.

Around you, you see the other people falling as well. Will you try to save them with your new abilities? Will you be able to even save yourself?

For this first post of Section 2, we are dropping right into the action. If you have an ability that will not save you in this circumstance, I recommend posting early so that others can try to save you from becoming a pancake. Feel free to message me if you need help. Also, use the environment to your advantage. Trees, flora, fauna. All of them can have unexpected properties. Feel free to make them up and build the world with me as we go!

 

[Nellancholy]

Already got something plotted out for the landing.

Might be a bit of a stretch,but I think it's a good enough idea.

 

[BuggaBoo]

Posted! Had no idea how my girlie would survive the fall sooooo like Tysm for the assist Nellancholy

Oh and I put a gigantic dancing flower up there too lol. Maybe someone use it as a trampoline or catchers mitt?
