Stargate: Konoha RP

Stargate: Konoha Challenge Thread

Stargate: Konoha Idea Thread

Basic premise: Bring the Naruto, Evangelion, Gundam and possibly other animes into the Stargate Universe.

Any RP based on this idea would not have original characters as the mains-Just already established characters (though OCs would be required so that we don't have a long list of nameless Marines, technicians, civilians etc).

Currently, I'm leaning towards have the starting point be set in Stargate: SG-1's eighth season, Stargate Atlantis's first season. It would be one year since Third Impact in the Evangelion universe, and two years since Konoha began it's own Stargate program.

In the middle of the Naruto Time Skip, essentially, except that Naruto is now leading his own SG Team comprised of Konoha ninja, part of an Earth/Elemental Countries exchange program.

First contact with the Gundam world (needs an actual name) would be made here, and the various programs at Area 51 devoted to studying Evangelion world mecha technology would be kicked into high gear to develop a working weapon system.

At least these are my thoughts for the first game if it catches enough interest. This thread is to serve not only as a meter for the interest in the idea, but also a discussion thread for hammering out how this thing would be played.

Well, here's the basic timeline:

-First Part of the Naruto Saga up to just after the Snow Country Movie, but before the Rescue Sasuke Arc (SG-1 Season 5-6).

-Naruto accidentally crosses through the Stargate hidden in Snow Country. He wanders the Stargate system for a few weeks, looking for home, before he is found by SG-1. He becomes an unofficial member of the team and with their help he looks for Konoha. (Beginning of Season 7, SG-1)

-Konoha begins it's own Stargate program to find Naruto, essentially buying the Stargate from Snow Country along with it's damaged DHD, as well as copies of wall inscriptions in the chamber it was found in. Sakura Haruno, displaying a nearly unnatural aptitude, figures out the Stargate's purpose and with help from Jiraiya manages to repair the DHD and locate Naruto's destination.

-SG-1 and Naruto make First Contact with Konoha, running into a Konoha team offworld. (Mid-Season 7 SG-1)

-On this same mission it is discovered that Orochimaru is a Goa'uld, who managed to locate a second Stargate and went off-world after the Tsunade arc in order to repair his arms. (Mid-Season 7 SG-1)

-The Interdimensional Stargate is discovered on what will later be known as New Genesis. First Contact with NERV is established at the time of the destruction of the Fifth Angel. (Mid-Season 7 SG-1)

-SGC personnel plus a small contigent of Konoha ninja are assigned to NERV as advisers to the alternate Earth to help fight the Angels in exchange for access to NERV technology, such as positron cannons.

-Third Impact Occurs in the other Eva Universe. The New Genesis Colony is set up in our universe for those who wish to leave the LCL Sea. The New Genesis Research Center is set up with help from the Asgard. (Near the end of Season 7 SG-1).

-Anubis's Assault on Earth commences (End of Season 7, beginning of Season 8 SG-1).

-Atlantis Expedition is formed, including a number of Konoha ninjas and former citizens of what is now called Third Impact Earth. Sasuke defects to Orochimaru who has filled the power vacuum left by the destruction of the System Lords. The USS Prometheus is equipped with a single positron cannon. The under construction DSC-304 or Daedalus class will be equipped with four as standard. (Season 8 of SG-1, Season 1 of Atlantis)

-Area 51 begins the "Eidolon Program", intent on building a small, prototype combat mecha based upon the TRIDENT/Country Crawler design but augmented with SGC and Evangelion technology. With F-302 technology, the MX-03 is designed for atmospheric and space flight, as well as ground combat. It requires a crew of 2 to operate.

-At the same time, elements of the US military and the governments of other nations part of the Stargate Treaty secretly retrieve Mass Production Evangelion Unit 09 from Third Impact Earth. In a classified base in New Mexico, they begin restoring and upgrading the Eva. Among the upgrades included are inertial dampeners and trinium-based armor.

-First contact is made with the world P9G-U11, an advanced civilization whose primary fighting machine is the mobile suit. The faction Celestial Being possesses the Stargate and opens diplomatic relations with the Tau'ri. However, other alliances on P9G-U11 soon learn of this and more fighting breaks out between the major powers. (Mid-Season 8 SG-1).

-Due to the volatile political climate of P9G-U11, the Eidolon program receives extra funding and produces their first prototypes by the end of the year. Due to the siege of Atlantis in the Pegasus galaxy, however, the first unit is swiftly deployed onto the Daedalus to help fight the Wraith (End of Season 8 SG-1, End of Season 1, Atlantis).

May we assume you'll be GMing this to some extent? This is intriguing. You'd need to set up some rules, though. For example, will each participant be restricted to one character or group of characters as his or her own to play with, can we dabble with other peoples' characters, can we dabble with npcs? The biggest problem I had with the TFFA RP I participated in was that it was very inconsistent and seemed absolutely random at times. That and my character started getting emo. I think perhaps a GM-type person (you) would be a good idea, to perhaps streamline the game a bit.

I would play the nominal game master, just to keep things running smoothly.

I would decide when the story arcs of the game began and ended. I would also set the rules on character strengths.

For example: Away from Konoha, all ninja have at least a 50% drop in their chakra capabilities. A jinchurikki (demon container) would experience the same, but still have access to their demon's chakra, which would be unaffected. However, when I mean 50% I mean 50% of everything. Strength, speed, reflexes-It's all dropped because they're away from their planet. So a large number of extremely powerful jutsus would not be available. Nor would summons be available off-world.

It requires a ninja to rely on more than just flashy jutsu, in other words.

Now, you could control NPCs. I'm thinking the basic idea is that each player can choose a main character or set of characters to play (but no more than two, maybe three in special circumstances). NPCs would be played and shared by everybody unless you specifically request those NPCs. So yes, a small group of main characters, with a "flock" of NPCs where required and a large pool of characters who, if not chosen, are group controlled.

Well, yes. But depending upon the amount of players you could play other characters as well.

Fair enough. Oddly, I'm seeing him as a very "Keitaro Urashima"-esque character; warm-hearted and friendly (for a ninja, at least), but a bit clumsy and accident prone.

I'm assuming we'll create OCs to be our avatars? So what would the limits be for powers?

No, you can create OC NPCs, but the main characters to be played will be existing characters.

Jack O'Neill, Naruto, Shinji, etc.

Would that be okay?

Are we going to make use of an actual role playing system for this?

Or is this more chose your own adventure style stuff?

Choose your own adventure. Basically like a massive Round Robin.

Well, I think I'd join in the bizarre fun. I liked my version of Lee, though I'm fairly certain I'll have to omit everything that involved the 'Youthful Imperium' and the 'Gai-Emperor'.

So who wants who? I'd volunteer for some of the higher tier chars, but I'll see if the more consistent players here will step up for those first.
