Clockwork Heroes RP [discussion][APPS CLOSED]

In addition to the myriad adjustments made to Warhawk, Filia also has several different magazines. FMJ bullets provide piercing damage, default rounds deal normal damage, and incendiary rounds... Well, you know. She even has hollow point rounds infused with shadow energy, because you've got to have options! The charge attack for Warhawk is rather unique: Charges don't take that long. The charge attack involves putting each of the four bullets in a magazine on queue- the longer he charge is held, the more bullets are used, and therefore more penetrating power is given. A fully charged shot from an FMJ magazine could punch through even a Lumber's defenses, despite their resistance to piercing rounds. Warhawk also has an X Ray scope setting, able to see through barriers at ranges of up to a hundred meters.

Because why the fuck not? Badass guns are badass.

The girl also has a set of binoculars: many snipers have a spotter who helps them with a shot. Well, Filia is her own spotter. The binoculars have the same three settings as her scope: adjustable zoom, X-ray, and thermal

Nothing to see here, move along.

Actually, I would put hollow point rounds in the realm of shadow weaponry. They're not very good at piercing by design, and in fact are deliberately designed not to pierce, as that would be counter-productive to their intended use. They're designed to spread out and cause as much flesh damage as possible, and reports indicate that they're extremely difficult to extract, since they leave countless pieces inside. In fact, they cause so much damage that they've been outlawed in military use. For piercing ammunition, you want full metal jacket.

-Filia cursing in background-
-indistinct screams of agony-

Fuck, sorry. XD thank you for that. I got a bit confused, I'll edit my post now.

I suppose I could make hollow point rounds infused with shadow energy,

Oh i guess i missed out on this.

*shrugs*

Only so much one can doooo.....

But seriously, i looked at this, thought to take the day to think of a character, came up with nothing and look here, apps closed, time to just follow the rp ^^.

*imagines Critzer juggling bags of sand, each one with a symbol. One represents life, 2 represent Lidia and Earnest, and the other represents time. The life bag is significantly larger then any of the others, time is as well while Earnest and Lidia are must less developed.* Oh so much to handle yet so much time.

Crud. I really wanted you to play. I may reopen apps at some point if/when players drop out. When that happens, I want you to join. ;-)

I believe I stated that all the major named NPCs are mine; Hahn is one of them. To use him thus constitutes a power play. You were given the freedom to create other NPCs as needed; I recommend using one in Hahn's place.

Fixed.

Since the Skylark crashes, won't we need to include that at some point? Maybe the reason the Cryogenic chambers released the Knights was not because they'd already reached Cradle, but because of close proximity to a planet the Skylark determines could sustain life? Or maybe the chambers simply malfunctioned, and this is the beginning of a series of events leading to the Skylark's crash due to system failure?

You'll see. I'm following the lore pretty closely actually; start a new in-game character to see what I'm talking about.

OK, a few notes:

Dayum, everyone's posting so much.

I didnt think I'd have to read someone getting out of a cryo-pod 10 times in a row.We gotta do something about this.Maybe have some of the posts force action upon more than just the poster's char?

Okay, I'll try that when I get home. Anyway, I thought of something. Would it be okay for Filia to basically rip the individual AI of her cryogenic pod out and transfer it into her HUD? Sort of like Jarvis, if you want to look at it that way. And no, it's not Skyla. Just the programming in Filia's individual pod.

@Magmaul-Ace: the optimal way to do that is have more character interaction. So far, there's been some, but I presume itll increase once everyone gathers in the mess hall.

That gives me a fantabulous idea. Why not have it be Skyla? I think that would seriously improve Liminori's involvement in the story. Besides, the cryopods don't have individual AIs. The ship's main computer handles that.

guys

hey guys
I just saw something.
"Hallways in the Core should generally be shorter."
in the Core.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm thinking I'm going to do a full playthrough of SK for once.
After all, I've got the whole summer to do it, discluding moving to Oregon.

However, I'll wait a bit.
I want to try something out soon, But I'll do it when this dies down a little- Meaning that I will once again be delaying my original RP, downplaying Lethes.
Which is okay, Because Skyla is obviously more badass.

@Lim: so, would that be okay with you? There could be a little scene with Filia fiddling with Skyla's programming to let her have direct access to her HUD. Pwease?

Mountain Jelly. Never forget.

(Dear goodness was my writing THAT bad back then?)

YES HE REMEMBERS
On another note, my writing was atrocious back then as well.

NEVER FORGET THE ALAM- wait. NEVER FORGET THE RETURN TO CRADLE!

The first thing I thought of when I saw that post was RtC.

Your writing was actually pretty okay. The only problem I saw with it was that you seemed to take characters instead of make them. I regret searching Ikaros.

My writing was.... eaugh. It was nails on chalkboard level to read.

(Also, I really should remake Archy the bard. A reboot. Hmm...)

Pretty sure my writing sucked the most
that was my first rp augh .-.
...

@Kaijuhunter

GOJIRRAH!
*ahem*
sure.

So what exactly is the team comp going to look like before and after the crash?

I'm kinda sad I never got to be a part of RtC.

@Root-Kit: I'm thinking Serah, Mundy, Arch, and one other person go in one squad, while Cherub leads another. I haven't decided on the full composition yet.

@Hexlash: It was fun, but it was also a (creative) mess. :P

It was so creative that I was at a loss to even control my theories about Cradle and the Clockworks...which got quite out of hand once I pulled back to read what I actually wrote. It's why I do not even dare go back to attempt to read.

Lol...and I hope you know, there is a being inside the Core that no one knows about, but I may have an idea of what it is....

*cringe*

OH VOGDAMMIT I LIKED DUBSTEP AND NIGHTCORE

*cringes so hard, the force of the cringe knocks body off cliff*

Also all those anime images taken from Google. It was like a heist.

Looking over that thread gives me memories. Of course it makes me realize what an atrocious writer I was, but hindsight is 20/20.

I don't recognize either of your names from RtC, yet it sounds like you two were participants. What names did you guys go by back then?

The time has come! I AM ((I made this decision, I hope not to regret))

SEATUS!

Though I'm curious about Root-Kit.

@Thin, thank you very much, sir! I will take your words into consideration!

To not be straightforward, my username wasn't even an actual word. And I lean more towards writing villains than heroes.

I say @Root-Kit is Nautilan or Svanto.

You know, that was probably the biggest surprise I've ever had on this forum. Well-played, Seatus. :D

Though, I had a hunch once you mentioned dubstep and Nightcore. There aren't many others who know what Nightcore is, let alone appreciates the music. You were (and still are) the only person I know who likes Nightcore. I'm actually starting to like it too, btw.

i know what nightcore is(I think)... or at least what people call a nightcore remix...

For characters unaccounted for, you could be Gzilla, Azure-Orbit, Infernus-Dragneel, Nautilan, or Svanto. Since you lean towards villains, I believe that would narrow you down to either Gzilla or Infernus-Dragneel. Post length identifies you as Gzilla.

Am I right?

Yes, you're correct but I have to ask, how did my post length wind up in your deduction?

A cursory glance at the RtC thread shows that Infernus-Dragneel can get very long-winded. Gzilla was anything but. He would only write one or two paragraphs. A writer's improvement tends to yield more quality, rather than quantity, so your post length was unlikely to change. Even now, the most I've seen you write is about 3 paragraphs, though the quality has substantially improved.

*Hides subscription to Nightcore channel*
huh, whuh?
Seatus, there you are!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
*Tapes a cardboard monocle to Noel's face*

Two RTC'ers in disguise. . .
mwuahahahah,
Hahahaha
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Well played.

I was leaving it ambiguous as to what table Den fell on, but can I get some clarification as to what tables are occupied and by whom?

I believe everyone that introduced themselves are all at the same table.

For the purposes of simplicity and humor, everyone is at the same table. You crashed into it. ;-P

Skyla's personality is Difficult.
While I have taken liberties to give her a humanic personality, I still have to remind everyone that Skyla is not human.
Skyla's Original Sheet/Operating System would be better played by someone like Critzer, in all honesty.

I'm sad that I won't be able to Roleplay Skyla properly. . .

Is it just me... But i felt really ignored. Such as on my first post, and when i asked skyla about the dish. Might be just me... Anyway i won't post today, since i don't know what to do.

SEATUS HAS RETURNED GLORIOUS DAYS TO YOU OLD FRIEND!

I don't often listen to nightcore, but i like certain songs. Particularly, already fast paced instrumental songs like Dragon Rider are the ones I listen to in their nightcore remixes.

@Root-Kit and Noel: so... Who are you guys, then?

@Liminori: Chael was addressing Skyla. It was quite well-written, too.

@Spirals-Ore: If you like, I can pretend you're at the table with everyone else now. That should bring you back into the action.

@Thin... Well, or i could just move him there now. The problem that i see is the big time diffrence of our post. I am about to sleep when i write this, and thus, can't post another ... post. But since 1/3 of you seems to be posting at 8.00. pm in my time, i guess i am the one that need to adapt.

(P.S: I enjoyed nightcore, but i enjoy techno house more. And maybe a good pinch of jazz to calm down)

I get off work at 5pm MST, and I'm home and settled down at around 6pm. Usually I've got other stuff I want to do (like have dinner), so I don't get around to posting until around 8pm.

I can post in the mornings sometimes (like now), but not reliably.

I'm finally back from the dead
-
Explanation for my ignoreyness:
First, I didn't see the post.
. Second, I was tired, and not reading everything in every post, shame on me,
.. Third, I was watching Danganronpa late at night, refreshing SK less and less,
... Fourth, I went to bed since my last post.
.... Fifth, I fell asleep at 5:00.
..... Sixth, when I sleep, I'm knocked out and stay that way for about 6-14 hours.
...... Seventh, it's 3 friggin 50, I'm going to take a break before I post again, because I woke up in less than half an hour.

I'll Be Back
*Lifts thumb as I sink into the swarm*

I think I just tripped
oh god
Danganropa's SO wierd...
I just finished watching the animation.
I'll uh... Comment in a while.
After I calm down.
I am now monitoring the forums.

My days feel a bit longer than normal, and I have strange sleeping hours, sorry for the lack of posts!
I'll try better tomorrow, since it's the weekend and such.

No worries. The posts you do make are still high-quality. I re-read your latest one about 2-3 times just to appreciate its depth.

Chael and Den are still unaccounted for in squad arrangements. Spirals-Ore and Hexlash, you two haven't been forgotten. ;)
