My pleasure.

Windsock Would you want NPC ideas sent to you? I vaguely recall a Raven NPC I had made for an Armored Core RP I tried running elsewhere years ago, and I could dig up some info and send it to you if you want.

I appreciate the sentiment. If there's a character idea you'd love to see used, please, shoot it at me in PM's and I'll consider utilizing it.

As that dead-line I mentioned earlier (March 1st) is nearing, just wanted to remind everybody that it isn't a 'make it or you're out' deal. If you need more time, we'll start without you at first but you'll still be a part of the beginning story nonetheless. Characters will be coming in over time in the starting 'episode' if at all necessary. If you need to take your time; please do so! I'll figure something out for you when we get going.

 

[Malphaestus]

I know.

 

[Windsock]

It begins

 

[Windsock]

I'll be writing up the starter post everybody; a reminder that the context is simply everyone being brought in to a collection of freshly minted NC's and deciding which one they want. Those of you still working on your CS's will come in later in the event, but everyone who already has a character approved can be presumed to be part of the starting group and can do stuffs.

So, you lot here can start doing stuffs as soon as I'm done with the actual introductory post.

And you guys down here can still work on your CS's. Your characters will be coming in later, not sure specifically how yet. I'll probably just make it their vehicle blew a tire or something. Maybe they were having trouble with paperwork. If you'd like to handle how to introduce them later yourself, notify me and be my guest. Continue taking your time, don't rush anything you can't rush!

Now... time to lay some ground rules, how I want this to work and my expectations. So, we'll be testing my 'episode' idea, and this starter-storyline will be 'episode 0'. I'd expect about three posts from everyone for this 'episode', and we'll be figuring out what NC's people want to use and maybe the beginning of any team-ups and relationships you guys would like.

We'll be 'taking turns' based on 'character approval seniority', so, for you folks starting us off, I expect a post mirroring when I approved each of your characters. In short, I start the story, and then it's Emperor, then Chimera, then Ordnance, then me again. If you'd like to change this queue, discuss it yourselves and swap spots. Anyway, I'll make a responsive post whenever needed, and certainly at the end of the queue and then we'll start the process over.

Anybody would like to work on a singular post together in PM's, please do so; I'll likely be requesting this myself. It'll convey a back-and-forth between characters better and will almost certainly be how I work out most battles in the RP. I'll be the ultimate referee of all conflicts and may use dice to induce randomness.

I'd like this 'episode' to last, real-time about two or three weeks at maximum. If we get done and can safely end the story sooner with no objections, that's what we'll do.

So, to re-cap; the first leg of our story will be figuring out everyone's NC's and how they all first-met in universe. We'll be posting based on when everyone got their character(s) approved (maybe, you guys can change this part if you want). Everyone makes a post, I reply when needed, and another reply by me (with perchance a summary) when everyone else has posted. I may ask to see posts in PM's and collaborate to help move the story along faster and let things read better. I expect this prologue to be two or three weeks long.

I hope everyone else is excited as I am!

 

[Viper Actual]

Sounds good, boss.

 

[Windsock]

Looks like ya'll can add Pacificus to the list of people who can start. Feelsgoodman

 

[Malphaestus]

I agree with the decisions made.

 

[Windsock]

IT BEGINS

START YOUR ENGINES!

GOOOOO

 

[Malphaestus]

I will begin to write up my IC entry today, I just have to go get some nicotine-products to sate my stress.

 

[Windsock]

Malphaestus Take your time! I just suggested you go first as a.. y'know, suggestion. If you'd like to abstain and let somebody else start us off, that's great as well.

 

[Malphaestus]

No, it's fine, it is general stress. I just need my stuff and I can go.

For everyone's convenience, Fredrich-Alexander, commonly referred to as just "Fred/Fredrich" or "Alex/Alexander," won't begin to have his personality shift until he has some real experience within the NC. So until then, he just has really rare and uncommon bouts of strange and uncharacteristic behaviour. Everyone's likely to have seen one, but not more, etc.

 

[Malphaestus]

Posted, hopefully people like it.

 

[Windsock]

Just as I suspected; an incredibly well-done first post by my main man Malph. Top ten realest homies, he remembered to convey the fact that Sarah is fast in what she does when I didn't already. Good jorb!

I don't see a need for a specific reply to that post though, so next person in line, please continue the momentum and give me a reason, would you?

 

[Malphaestus]

make Windsock work for his dime.

 

[Windsock]

Yeah, make me regret making this RP. Y'know, in a good way!

 

[Viper Actual]

Posted

 

[Windsock]

bruh that was fast. Pretty damn good too, good jorb. I'll be making a small replying post to her dialogue and then we'll continue as normal.

 

[Windsock]

longer than I expected, got too excited. Smh. Anyway, next up should be Pacificus . I think he just logged off for today, though. We'll see. Disregard I'm a dumbass

Oh, feel free to talk and reply further in-character ofc. Just nothing major.

 

[Viper Actual]

I think Skyhawk is up next.

 

[Malphaestus]

Indeed.

 

[Windsock]

Shit I fucked up

Big brain energy. Yes, SkyHawk MK IV is up next.
