I don't know what that means. I DID have some Archie comics about Sonic the Hedgehog back when I was a kid (like 4 or 5 issues maybe), and I watched some of the episodes of the 90's cartoon series that had Sally (and no Amy Rose) as the female love interest. There was also a Walrus guy and a French Fox, and Bunny Robot. Mostly, I've just played the OG games on the Sega Genesis as my solid experience to the fandom.This RP takes place in the Pre-Super Genesis Wave Archie Comics universe...
So I'm familiar with some of those names... like a small handful. But aside from very superficial video game stuff and what I can barely recall from the tv series, let's just assume I know little to nothing about 75% of those characters mentioned.The canon characters involved in the RP are Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow, Rouge, E-123 Omega, Silver, Blaze, Sally, Bunnie, Antoine, Rotor, Nicole, Vector, Espio, Charmy, Mighty, Ray, Julie-Su, Sonia Acorn, Manik Acorn, Jacques D'Coollette, Belle D'Coollette, Lara-Su and Melody Prower. No extensive knowledge on the Archie Comics characters needed to join this RP. If you have any questions about the RP, just DM me and I'll try to answer them.
Okay, so I'm tentatively interested in this RP. I'm not like a mega-fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, but my kiddo has been really into it for over a year now, and I saw this RP come up and figured hey, why not? It's an interesting throwback to some childhood nostalgia.Rules
1. All OCs must be between the age of 10 and 18.
2. Couples are allowed, but please keep things SFW.
3. No overpowered characters.
4. Posts are expected to be at least a paragraph long in order to give all involved in the RP something to work with.
Well, with the Sonic Archie comics, there are two different runs of the comic. There's the OG one, which is known as the Pre-Super Genesis Wave run that most people know and remember the most, and there's the run that took place after a soft reboot of the comics, known as the Post-Super Genesis Wave run that lacks a lot of the lore and character that the OG run had. And yes, there was a walrus named Rotor, whom I've mentioned in the Extra Info section of the RP, there's Antoine, who's actually a French coyote, and not a fox, and there's also Bunnie Rabbot, a cyborg rabbit, like you mentioned. As I've mentioned, you don't need extensive knowledge on the Archie Comics to join this RP, but if there isn't anything you understand about the Archie Comics lore utilized in this RP, I'll gladly try and explain it to you.I don't know what that means.

Well, Belle D'Coollette's robotic arm has a built-in laser cannon in the Mobius: X Years Later comics, so having a Mega Man like arm cannon for your character is definitely not something out of place for the universe this RP establishes. As for what I consider to be overpowered, I will allow your character's robotic arm to have more than one gadget, but please try to limit the amount of gadgets to three. As for rocket powered legs, that's something that is allowed as well, since both Jacques D'Coollette and Belle D'Coollette had a robotic rocket powered leg in the Mobius: X Years later comics, so that's something that isn't out of place in the RP's universe as well. That said, the ideas listed here are definitely sufficient for your character to make them powerful and keep their powers balanced simultaneously.I'd be interested in making a character that was a little bit roboticized. Like the Bunny Robot girl from the series. Only kinda Megaman-styled where the arm is a gun. Maybe some face cybernetics??? I dunno. I haven't quite decided yet, and I'm pretty sure I'm definitely NOT going to find fan art of something so specific. Especially if I don't want to be a rabbit.
What do you consider to be overpowered? Like, what if the arm gadgets weren't limited to just a blast cannon, and it had a grappling hook feature. What about robot rocket powered legs? How much is too much? Cause, quite frankly I'm not too well acquainted with the franchise in terms of what is considered "powerful".
There are a few sonic picrews (character art making site) that you could use, none which would have robotized parts or anything but something to work off of.COOL! now... about a faceclaim... I'm either gonna hafta leave it as purely text description, draw it myself, or use Heroforge and try to make some semblance of it (though the art style will definitely not be Sonic-styled if i use that resource). lol
Thanks for the pointer. I'll look into it. I can always try to draw it myself, too. The style is simple enough to emulate. It's just finding the time (and quiet) to draw it out that will be difficult. lolThere are a few sonic picrews (character art making site) that you could use, none which would have robotized parts or anything but something to work off of.
If you just google "sonic picrew" "sonic the hedgehog picrew" I know theres at least a couple.
Okies. Re-wrote it a bit. How about now?Murdergurl So I took a look at Cassie's character sheet, and I see very few issues, and the issues I do see I will address in a moment. Her backstory is a bit on the dark side, but given that the Pre-SGW Archie Comics are based on Sonic SatAM, which was a dark story oriented show, her backstory makes sense within the universe the comics establishes. The only real concern I have with Cassie's character sheet is her broken psyche and her involuntary unhinging. Since her personality section mentions that she can target her comrades after running out of evil targets to fight, that could prove to be a problem for the Freedom Fighters. I'd perhaps suggest toning down Cassie's broken psyche to the point where she is still unhinged, but it could prove to not be harmful towards the Freedom Fighters.
That's better. If I heart your Character Sheet, it means they are accepted into the RP, so keep watch for a heart.Okies. Re-wrote it a bit. How about now?
To be fair, none of the group RPs that I've put my interest into over the last couple months have gotten anywhere. They either falter out in the recruitment phase or start up and immediately flop. So, the lack of interest isn't necessarily a subject matter issue. And is likely more of a commitment issue of the community at large.It's not all that surprising to me, in all honesty. Sonic the Hedgehog is a pretty niche fandom, after all. Not only that, but most of the people in my age group that used to be interested in Sonic have grown up and moved away from the fandom. Not to mention, the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise has been doing rather badly for over a decade now, so that might also play into why there isn't a whole lot of interest in this idea. I'm still holding hope that we can make this happen, but at the same time, there's a big chance this won't work out at all.
Yeah, that probably explains why I've encountered so many issues with users ghosting me on this site; Commitment issues.To be fair, none of the group RPs that I've put my interest into over the last couple months have gotten anywhere.

I don't think it's an RPN issue. I'm across a handful of other sites (RPN actually being one of the more active ones) and they all have their own issues about getting RPs started.Yeah, that probably explains why I've encountered so many issues with users ghosting me on this site; Commitment issues.
Yeah. Perhaps it's just an issue with roleplaying in general.I don't think it's an RPN issue. I'm across a handful of other sites (RPN actually being one of the more active ones) and they all have their own issues about getting RPs started.
That's okay. If you find the time, you're free to join if this is still accepting people.Just so it is known. I'm interested in joining but am kind of swamped IRL right now.
I'll take a look at it when I get a chance, thanks for submitting!I finished up my character sheet! pls let me know if there’s anything that I need to change or rework AlexneushoornTheGreat
