quotemyname Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Trying to garner support for a thread where Valkyrie teams up with some other heroes to take on SHADOW. Any chance I might be able to get a ref to run this thread, as I am less than familiar with the way SHADOW does things? I know Gizmo has expressed interest with Jack, so consider him to have a reserved spot unless he opts not to join later. I think we can run this thread with about 4-6 characters, yes? We'll probably accept them in order in which they respond.
alderwitch Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I could see Bombshell fighting Nazis. It is basically an old hobby.
Heritage Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Gossamer needs threads more, but Grim has had precious little chance to fight Nazees, so I vote for the Griminator.
Avalon Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Cobalt Knight would like to join once he gets approved.
quotemyname Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 Wow, this got some support pretty quickly. I'm still looking for a GM, though. Once we can get that, we can probably go through the list and decide who's in and who's out. I see this as a good opportunity, because we don't often see the criminal organizations of Freedom used on this site.
quotemyname Posted July 6, 2010 Author Posted July 6, 2010 Okay, let me see, I had originally requested 4-6 players. The list so far is: Valkyrie (PL10) Jack of all Blades (PL13) Pharos (PL10) Bombshell (PL10) Gigawatt(PL7) Grim (PL13) ~~Ace Danger (PL13) ~~Atlas (PL12) ~~Ironclad (PL7) ~~Cobalt Knight (PL?) Okay, that's 9 PC's. A lot more than was asked for. Sorry, guys, but it looks like I'm going to have to cut some of the people that came late! I think we can make this work. Before I go and railroad this thing, is there any element that any of you would like to see included in this thread? Possibilities include -Invading Enemy HQ -Foiling Enemy Plot to capture McGuffin -??? -Proft!
quotemyname Posted July 6, 2010 Author Posted July 6, 2010 I did see that av, but right now we're still overstalked. I didn't bither editing because I think he was still after the original 6. Might I recommend putting him in your sig now that he's approved?
quotemyname Posted July 6, 2010 Author Posted July 6, 2010 Okay, I'm about done formulating ideas for this thread, so I'm going to ask one more time if anyone would like to see any specific storytelling elements make an appearance? I'm open to any and all suggestions. Please let me know!
Gizmo Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Well, it'd be nice to make a call back to whatever durf's got cooked up for Jack in SHADOWs Over Freedom, but obviously the timing on that might be tricky.
quotemyname Posted July 6, 2010 Author Posted July 6, 2010 Care to elaborate? Or do you not know the details?
Gizmo Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 He's mentioned some kind of fencing Baroness-expy, but we haven't really made it to that point in the thread yet. durf could tell you more, of course.
quotemyname Posted July 6, 2010 Author Posted July 6, 2010 I hadn't planned on including her, but I'm sure she could be the mastermind behind things. If it turns out that your thread would prohibit that I can always pick someone else to spearhead the movement. My idea for this thread is pretty fluid. So that the rest of you know, I'll be going with the following for now: SHADOW steals the mcguffin, and makes off with it. After the heroes chase down the culprit, there is a showdown with some clones and a higher ranking officer. If anyone has problems with that let me know.
angrydurf Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 S.H.A.D.O.W. Over Freedom in Wading way is the thread he's referencing. Ace, Edge and JoAB uncover a SHADOW plot to raise an army of super hitler clones in a secret lair in freedom. They are about to head in and stop the plot. The Head of security is going to be a Baroness Expy fencer basically there are other ranking SHADOW agents as well there but none from the books. They are part of a faction of SHADOW that has strong loyalties to the reich still. Also JoAB scored himself an Evil Hand for the thread ;)
quotemyname Posted July 7, 2010 Author Posted July 7, 2010 Okay, after okaying my ideas with Shaen, I'm about ready to get this thread going. I'll post the IC and OOC links here when I have them up. This thread will begin in the Freedom City Museum, so think of a reason for your character to either be there, go there when the trouble starts. Last chance for story element requests!
quotemyname Posted July 7, 2010 Author Posted July 7, 2010 The thread is up! IC: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3826&start=0 OOC: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3824&start=0 Please post in the OOC so that I know that you're following the conversation, thanks.
