Heritage Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) So the other day in the chat room, the CW's Legends of Tomorrow came up, and someone mentioned how cool it would be to have a team like that, even though that would probably involve more time travel than is safe or convenient to roleplay. I agreed it would be cool, and suggested my own PC Ditra Fifty-Five might be a good fit for such a team. I said this in part because I really like the character, but the space side of our campaign hasn't really clicked for me, probably because I never followed the space storylines before, and I always feel like I'm playing catch up. But then another idea struck me; what about a team that specialized in visiting other Earths? I don't know if there's enough ideas or GMs out there to make it work, but the idea of a team flying between alternate dimensions in a Waverider-type ship appeals to me. Anyone else find the idea intriguing? Edited December 6, 2017 by Heritage
Moira Morley Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 I'd do this! I'd probably make a character for it since Scion is pretty rooted in staying on the Prime.
Tiffany Korta Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 Okay, this gives me ideas, such ideas bwahaha! I think I have a solid enough an idea to start putting something together if you wanna start that quickly H. We can then add people in once they get the ship and start travelling!
olopi Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 This is something I've thought about before (like, over a year ago), and I wasn't entirely sure if it was doable in a PbP environment, but if you're going for it I'll definitely watch how it goes and possibly get involved!
Heritage Posted December 6, 2017 Author Posted December 6, 2017 By the way, I'm sitting on three unspent Rewards, so I can pay for our trans-dimensional ship outright
Tiffany Korta Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 What I'm thinking is that like the show we'll have a permanent team, who have pitched into our trans-ships, and guest star that might show up for an adventure or two. I'm more than willing to put my money where my mouth is :D.
Exaccus Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 I'd be intrested in getting Deoxy involved in some capacity, He's undegoing a major reworking at the moment to be a bit more focused on the energy projection aspects and genius intellect possibly as a occasional guest, since im hitting silver this month and i intend to get a base for him and buy off facsimiles equipment i'd still have a few points spare to put into the ship.
Curious Key Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 Did someone say interdimensional romp? I'm interested.
Ari Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 I'd like to offer my Red Moon for this one. I have several points to put into the ship with them, and frankly they aren't much use on this Earth anyway.

Exaccus Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 if you wanted to go with something like the martian bioship or the farscapes Ship doctor deoxy would happily make something of that nature for you too.

I have several points to put into the ship with them, and frankly they aren't much use on this Earth anyway. That sounds like an awesome idea! So at this point, potentially, we would have Doctor Deoxy, Red Moon, Ditra Fifty-Five and Solar Sentinel as either core members or auxiliaries/guest stars; that's a pretty cool and diverse line-up! The big hurdle would be coming with explanations of how they all meet (Ditra and Sentinel know each other, but I think that's it), where they get the ship from, and who or what gives them their transdimensional focus. Any ideas, Tiff, secret or otherwise? Edit: oh, one idea I had was that for some reason, Ditra gets assigned to be a Coalition ambassador to Earth, so there's one possible thread for the tapestry.

EviscerusNox Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 I love this idea myself! Don't have anyone to contribute to it, but I'll definitely be reading their adventures! Though I suppose in the future if you're looking for guest stars Spitfire has done more than his fair share of dimension hopping and Prince Ak'kar could lend aid to any space themed stuff y'all do since he has his own ship
BlazingCoconut Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 I would happily make someone for this idea, but it seems like you're pretty full already.

I wouldn't say we're full yet; we only have four named characters and a few people who've mentioned interest. Also, you could always GM! Edited December 7, 2017 by Heritage
Tiffany Korta Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 I have an idea of how they get the ship, enough that I can start when you ready, all I need to start is Dita and maybe a Earth representive, for which Solar Sentinal (and Red Moon maybe) would do fine. Once the setup is done we can work out how others get involved as we go along. And obviously once everything is setup other are more than welcome to come play in our multi-dimensional sandbox
TheAbsurdist Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 Listen, it's a Temporally and Dimensionally flexible team. There is minimal reason the roster is set.
BlazingCoconut Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 Okay, then I'll start working on a character. I have ideas!
Tiffany Korta Posted December 8, 2017 Posted December 8, 2017 Right to start Ditra-55, Solar Sentinel and The Traveller will discover the ship to go between dimensions in Signal in the Darkness. Once the ship is in the team hands we'll open thing out a bit to other character, plus people are welcome to run with the idea.
Heritage Posted December 11, 2017 Author Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) Can we get on OOC thread fof this? I guess I could just start one, but that seems rude, since I'm not the GM Edited December 11, 2017 by Heritage
Tiffany Korta Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 I believe I have enough setup, which you can read here and here, to actually start an actual dimension saving thread. So I need four volunteers to go out and save another world from evil!
Thunder King Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 I'm happy to throw Solar Sentinel back into things if you'd like
