Rag-tag Hope-Discussion

Aarik · Dec 11, 2009

Not really, it's just that apparently the only way to get an answer that's actually an answer is to argue over it on this forum, Plus the wording in your original explanation made it nonsensical, like you were referencing things I had no access to, possibly your conversation's with your conspirators.

The Fey comment was a joke referencing an obscure comment I made at some point in the Halloween World game, and the use of the word Court, as I have only ever seen that word used in such a manner to describe the Fey.

EDIT: Wait... Court, Xanatos-gambit wielding powerscavengers taking whatever they can get, Uniform... OHHH! They're LAWYER'S. It's a Lawyer Joke. I get it now.

@Sidhe: Hey, it's that girl you are!

Secondly, I can has explanation please? Is the system/other general info in the KH discussion thread, and I can just go read it there, or is it elsewhere/somewhat scattered and will require a decent amount of spelunking?

Aarik · Dec 11, 2009

Check the recent few pages of the End of The World discussion thread.

zedalb · Dec 11, 2009

OK my armour is my actualy closet except the gun isnt there.
Would u be happy if i gave up the sebon and the gun. Those are the two I would probaly drop if i had to drop soemthing

can i end up in mulans world its an au of ours so there should be an japan and the time line fits for ninja training

Aarik · Dec 11, 2009

... You do realize that the (Technically) Accurate depiction of the world at the time would have Ninja that are actually Ninja, which would thus be ASSASSIN'S and not Fighter's, and would not actually be helpful for you in any way at all in Battling the Heartless, and unless you are suddenly Japanese, have a lot of... I think they still used Ryo back then, and are prepared to spend somewhere around 16-20 years of rigorous training learning the art of assassinating human's, which would be useless against Heartless, they would NOT train you, because of the whole, you know, racism thing they have going on for all non-Japanese people.

Plus Ninja technique's and skills are usually as I understand it, FAMILY technique's, and would not be taught to you regardless.

And then there's the whole 'pledge of servitude' thing.

Not to say you can't become a 'Fake' Ninja like you see in Anime Manga and Video Game's, you're just going to have to be more creative about it.

For example: Yuffie.

EDIT: We could just have you steadily lose and use up your 'armory' while the world is ending, maybe have not all of it be brought with you when your pulled from our dieing world.

zedalb · Dec 11, 2009

LOL ok no i meant
the armory i would use allot of it example id probably end up with no throwing knives the gun would of ended up given away the sebon used

This is all the shit id grab when i saw the news and believed it not all i'd end up having . some of it wouldn't get "transmogrified"

About the world
Mulan-theres allot of problems with her china whose to say her ninja are exactly like ours i just want insane speed and the after image move
other world possibly the game "Shinobi"-please, you could argue they already have heartless

Assination yes but there was battle techniques not many but enough and yes it went down the family and there wasn't racism just because they were the only race they had shut down ports

Id love to end up in the disgea world under the ninja clans but i dont think it could happen if all else fails though plan z

First I spellchecked so I could actually read it.

Okay First, Mulan is in China, and Ninjas are in Japan several hundred years after the mongels invade.

Second, Dude you aren't getting in to Shinobi, sorry but it's made by Sega

Disgaea, is one of those worlds that won't ever be open, I'm sorry but at lvl 50 Laharl destroys over a million battleships without killing the crews at once.

You might get into Power Rangers if the mighty GM says you can.

Also on your app. It is for the stuff you have when the world ends. So basically go back and get rid of some of the stuff.

I'll help

Equipment:
katana
You only need one as a katana is a two handed weapon. Using two at a time doesn't work.

Crkt first strike(best knife ever)

backpack

Gi, I personally think you should wear something else but what do I know?
black belt

throwing knives(x9)
sebon(x30)
These can stay

Emerson cqc7 (x1)(hand knife)
ramen packs (x18)(in bag)

yumi unstrung(strapped to backpack)
arrowsx30(in bag)
I would ask the point of this.

sword cleaning kit(x2)
lighter (x3)(in bag)
can of axe(in bag)

glock22 pistol
clipsx3(one in the gun thats in the bottom of my backpack)
Lose this

large med kit(with the gun)

zedalb · Dec 11, 2009

Yumi is the only weapon I would trust for long range I'd do better with it than a pistol but I can't carry it so on the bag.

that's for when the world ends did not know that.

The second kattana was so i could have my two favorites my short lighter one and my heavy longer one but i can settle for my lighter kattana(LOL still a big sword).

The gm said worlds other than Disney if they met his approval so maybe i can dream right ok I'm going back to look up Disney movies and change my profile.

worlds-(i think are acceptable in order I want)
Kim possible-monkey man who trained Ron they here ninja and had magic(of a sort)
Hercules-if someone dosen't mind sharing
siegfried and Roy masters of the impossible-i think there was some sword swinging

and Gm if you want me to give up ninja I do have a plan "B" that seems fun

Aarik · Dec 12, 2009

... In' Kim possible the ninja's are a sort of combo of Real and Fake Ninja's, they are Decent at fighting, but an actual fighter can just beat them like drums in an actual fight.

Sensei was at least 90 year's old and Ron was exposed to Mystical Monkey Power (And then destroyed the only source for gaining that power) and was a part of more then one Prophecy, like 8 of them I think. Random dude from out of nowhere would never conceivably be able to even compare to Magic Enhanced Quintuple(?) Prophecy Child.

zedalb · Dec 12, 2009

sure I couldn't be as good as ron but im not starting from scratch.
I'm a decent warrior i could probaly hold my own aginst one fo them.
Once I get there(pysudo)magic (I still retain they are all using some) I should be ok and this could just be a first teacherfor me.
Did anyone ever see how good sensi was?

but your right it isnt as good as i thought im starting to lean pretty heavily towards plan "B"

Ps. Plan "B" is the shit

Shaderic · Dec 12, 2009

...
Oookay, I'm going to bite. What's plan B?

Also, on the Power Ranger's... what's there that you're after?

I'm going to have Shibuya as a guaranteed stop in the game (I have a plot point hidden there!), but that's going to be a secret for now.

Now, training with the KP ninjas... that's not too bad an idea. It'll give you some skill. Also, how do you plan to get them to teach you?

EDIT:

Alright, so brainstorming a bit here. Do we have a starting timeline?
I'm think that people are probably going to go away for christmas, at least for a little while, so why not use that?

We start on the 20th, and the world ends on the 23rd.
Then, IRL, we'll take a christmas break. We'll start back up again after christmas. That allows for some drift time, and let's people filter in how they like.

How's that sound?

Now, do we have some world suggestions, or ideas for plot?

Meantime, I think I'll go spelunking for those old G-space physics explanations...

Shaderic · Dec 12, 2009

2xpost!
Found the old explanation!

1
Magic: WhatÆs the deal with it?

Near as I can get, magic is a mind-over-matter deal. The reason why schools and styles of magic are possible? TheyÆre powered by belief in that system. A lot of people have trouble believing in magic, but believe in other things, so they æchannelÆ their magic that way. Magic is also influenced by our own wants and desires, hence why NGD, the pyro, can pull off so much weird fire stuff. Watashiwa can do psychic stuff, because, while he doesnÆt quite believe in magic, psychic stuff is much more plausible. Me? I believe in magic, but since I never really believed in it, I canÆt use it. My æmagicÆ is tempered more towards weird technomancy, hence all the fun gadgets IÆve come out with since getting here.

And why can we do it now? G-space exists between dimensions, kinda, and thereÆs a lot of weird shit there that can act as a catalyst for magic. I donÆt recommend deliberate exposure though. Our minds kinda filtered out what was happening before because we were æSubmerged in the darkness of the EndÆ. Unless you really want to try your luck standing on a world thatÆs going up, youÆre not likely to get the same experience. Even then, itÆs chancy because we might not be lucky enough to survive and æfallÆ into another world.

As for why the ships let us cross? They have weird reality regulators, or something that renders g-space less insane.

I'm okay with it. My exams are over by then.
Also on the magic I have three words. Jump, Gravity, Float

shibosho · Dec 12, 2009

I'm good with the 20th.

Will any of us be encountering Sora at some stage of the plot?

What about these worlds?:-
-Cars? (I wonder what would happen if a human falls into a world where no humans previously existed and the dominant sentient race are talking cars.)
-Drakengard? It's a square enix game (Altered medieval setting with fantasy creatures, an epic war going on and weapons that grow more power with each life they take.)
-Tortuga and Port royal? (Where's the rum gone?)
-Atlantis: The Lost Empire? (There's that magic crystal based technology and flying fish bikes)
-The Jungle book? (It's a jungle out there and survival is gonna be a bitch if you ain't got no animal friends)
-Fairytale land? (A world that is the combination of all the fairy tales that the Disney movies are based on, not the actually movies themselves. Works on fairytale logic. Based on Witches Abroad, discworld novel)
-Discworld? (Satire galore and the law of narrative causality)

And I ask once more, will our stuff be transmogrified when we are floating through the darkness of G-space or not?

Preventer Squall · Dec 12, 2009

I'm also advocating the Gargoyles world, as well as KP's. Though the latter is something of a given, considering Zed found some training there.

GhostElder · Dec 12, 2009

Been thinking on it and I might adjust my equipment. I might grab the fake sword in case of heartless apocalypse at first but only until I managed to get that 5ft stick of bamboo I never managed to make into a practice sword. It isn't sharp or weighted but it offers more defense than the display sword.

DrTempo · Dec 12, 2009

In terms of my "magic" potential, I could be considered a jack of all trades, master of none...I.E. I can learn many types of magic, but I never truly master any one kind...A Red Mage/Fighter mix would best suit my class, with more Fighter in me.

Shaderic · Dec 13, 2009

Try and avoid pre-concieved 'classes'.

You are yourselves in this game. Just... amped up.

Try to be unique. My guy is a gunner, in a fantasy scenario. True, that might no seem too original, but he's got to balance ammo, (well, he's got a bag of bottomless ammo. Or he will, anyway.) loading up the clips, reloading, aiming (can you aim and run at the same time? I can't not. Not now anyway.), and let's not forget trying to run away, dodge, and navigate difficult terrain.

His style of fighting, or at least the tactic that he can come up with, is just 'hide and snipe'. That and ambush, and perform a defensive holding movement (IE, bunker down, and shoot anything that moves). These tactics don't work well against beings that don't have any real need to move along set paths, and tend to ambush you out of thin air. So, he's going to need to learn how to shoot on the fly, and keep up a much better sense of situational awareness than he's used to.

Gah, I went on a ramble.

Yes, Transmog will be in effect. Please run your stuff by me before you go and give yourself anything too outrageous though, OK?

Latewave · Dec 13, 2009

Well I plan on using a modified Dragoon, Using the Black Magic spells Gravity and Aero, and the White magic spells Float and Reflect. On the Transmogged stuff I plan on turning the Machete and brass knuckles into one item and the shovel into a Jumpable Spear. On my other stuff well List time

Accesories:
Laptop Much tougher and Infinite battery
Goggles Tougher and filters light better
Backpack More storage

Screwdriver/wrench Multitool

Armor:
Hoodie Higher armor value Med Low?
Undershirt Same
Pants Same
Hat None
Running shoes No wear and tear

That work?

DrTempo · Dec 13, 2009

In terms of Transmog, about the only things affected in my instance would be the IPhone I snagged(inf.battery, and whatnot.), and my sword.

I used the "class" bit to explain just what I'd be capable of.

Shaderic · Dec 13, 2009

Acceptable. How are you planning on picking up the magic? And the jump training?

Latewave · Dec 13, 2009

Shaderic said:

Jump from Cid, Yes I know that is kinda cheap, Float from Aeris or Aerith, and the other ones are for later.

shibosho · Dec 13, 2009

Well here's what I was planning.

Post-Transmorg Equipment:

Enhanced Civvies - Actual protective properties
Magic Backpack - Holding capacity is greater than what its appearance suggests
Magic Gun-blade - Can be used as a melee weapon or gun. Uses bullets created from user's magic pool and life-force.
Grappling pickax - Now has chain of varying length at the end connected to hip. Is stronger, tougher and sharper.
Super Duct-tape - Stronger, more resilient, more adhesive and more awesome than regular duct-tape

Accessories:

Enhanced Goggles - Glasses have turned into protective goggles with various modes.
COMP - Computer shaped liked a DS with internet(?)
Portable Scanner Encyclopedia- PSP-shaped device used to scan unknown object and store the data.
Half-face respirator mask - Filters contaminated air and draw oxygen from water when underwater.

Armour:
Raincoat has become a black trench-coat
Beanie has turned into a wide brim hat.
Sneakers has turned into combat boots
Rest of clothes just look cool.

How's that?

twin blade · Dec 13, 2009

Hey, if you don't mind? I'm gonna get my guy screwed over; Nothing he has transmogrifies, besides batteries that now have an endless charge.
