Flare Knight Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Once more, I have a thread idea that needs more explaining or something. An Extraterrestrial Biker and an Obsessed Genius, re-purposed as his lieutenant, leading a gang of inter-space Hoodlums to Earth to have some 'fun', which involves, as always in my threads, are simple, one dimensional motivations because I don't know how much I should really give the one-shot villains in the realm of personality, blowing up buildings, kidnapping people, and throwing them off bridges, etc. etc. These guys are here for fun, and their fun is painful and dangerous to the people around them. I imagine this as either being one long thread, or a bunch of smaller ones. Enemies: Format is : Archtype (Name)- PL, Where they come from. Extraterrestiral Biker (Boss Bika)- PL 13, Villain's Archtypes 3 Obsessed Genius (Lt. Lieutenant)- PL 10, Villain's Archtypes 3 Supreme Commander (Lt. General)- PL 7, Villain's Archtypes 3 Solid Hero (Ensign Rocker)- PL 10, Archtype Archive 3 Size Changer (Ensign Big Man)- PL 10, Archtype Archive 3 Dead Eye (Ensign Shooter)- PL 10, Villain's Archtypes 2 + 50-75 Minions (Assorted Thugs, Gang Members, and the like) Who would be interested in playing this?
Raveled Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Sounds interesting, but pretty big. This isn't on the level of the Grue invasion, but nearly a hundred space-bikers coming down to cause trouble? That's a big deal.
quotemyname Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Extraterrestrial space bikers? This sounds like something Colt should get involved in. He's got an extraterrestrial space bike!
Supercape Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 This sounds interesting, particularly if it has some non-combat action in like rescuing people from falling of roof tops, or exploding gas tankers, etc. I would be interested, but it perhaps needs a little more flesh on the bones.
Quinn Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Count me in on this one too. Some motorcycle combat sounds awesomesauce ;)
Flare Knight Posted December 21, 2010 Author Posted December 21, 2010 So here's what I have so far; -50 Minions, leaving a total of 30. Players: Quote; Colt Quinn; Push Supercape; Cape? (Maybe?) Anyone else?
Supercape Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 If its Cold and Push, I will certainly use Cape to avoid to big a PL spread.
quotemyname Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 Looks accurate. Feel free to gm fiat colt, stripping him of equipment (and thus his bike) if you want to make the thread more balanced.
Ecalsneerg Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 Looks accurate. Feel free to gm fiat colt, stripping him of equipment (and thus his bike) if you want to make the thread more balanced. Be careful of wording here. Equipment explicitly NEVER gives a HP when the DM gets rid of it. That's why it's so cheap.
quotemyname Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 I know that. I should have worded it better. Feel free to screw over Colt's equipment if you feel his already high PL would unbalance your thread.
Heritage Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Hmm, might be a good idea to get Grim in here too, especially since both Push and Colt are in it Unless having another PL15 in the mix makes things overly complicated, which I would completely understand.
Flare Knight Posted December 22, 2010 Author Posted December 22, 2010 Not at all, it's fine. I'm planning to start this soon after New Years.
Quinn Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 Works for me! I better get a chance to motorcycle-joust someone with my hammer...:D
quotemyname Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Not at all, it's fine. I'm planning to start this soon after New Years. Just in case I miss or have missed any updates you make or might make, can you drop me a PM if or when this gets off the ground?
April Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 You know, I need to start posting again. And this seems reasonable enough for the psychic bloodhound. Sage is in.
Flare Knight Posted January 5, 2011 Author Posted January 5, 2011 The thread will start on the 5th. I've been trying to come up with enemies that have a 'motivation' instead of just being a super-strong roadblock. I also had to change the enemies around a bit, but it should be nothing serious.
Flare Knight Posted January 7, 2011 Author Posted January 7, 2011 The thread started; Worst New Years Ever, as I forgot to mention. That links to OOC, which contains a summary of the really bad IC post I made while I try to fix it up to be more presentable.
