Rise of the Polygems OOC

[daxtinator396]

I seem to have missed how Ducker got a sword when did that happen??

[Suraru]

At first I googled military tactics, but they didn't give me anything better then this plan I just pulled out of my ass.

Looks legit right?

[Zender_Solarheart]

Dax, keep in mind: Ducker's the parody/cameo character of Tucker from Red vs Blue. Tucker had an energy sword as his signature weapon, so it's only fitting he has a similar weapon in here.

Also, I'm working on updating the first post; mainly with details on the Geodians, plus a few weapons added to the databanks...and maybe some other details.

Also, was Jason ever told how the plasma shotgun works? Eff'in Eh, and I thought plasma was good against Polygems?

[daxtinator396]

oh sorry totally forgot that man its been forevrrrr since ive watched RvB though the fact you but parody characters of em in here is just awesome XD

[Icaelus]

<Bio> Growing up on the streets as a young orphaned girl didn't do wonders for your upbringing, Luna would quickly find out as she aged. Resorting to some nimble-fingered "tactics" she managed to survive, albeit usually on a hungry stomach, but what's a girl to do? On one fateful day, she messed up on her target, alerting him to her presence right just behind him. Luna was immediately caught was thrown in prison awaiting trial. Thieves weren't exactly favored in the eyes of the government, corrupted as it may be..
On a lucky twist of fate, though, it happened that the same exact person she had tried to steal from was a Platinum Stiletto. She figured herself all but damned to prison at that point, but he offered her two choices. One, status quo and be imprisoned for probably a zillion years or two and also infinitely better than the first, join the Platinum Stilettos. Obvious choice right there..
Lunalesca is a somewhat cold girl, tending to mistrust others due to her background. She didn't survive by trusting every other vagrant she met with a smile and a pat on their back, you know.

Also, was Jason ever told how the plasma shotgun works? Eff'in Eh, and I thought plasma was good against Polygems?

Technically, I listed it as a charge-up gun in the weapons list. I figured the fact that you hold the trigger down to charge it (1 charge level per turn held, in case you didn't know) was obvious. As for why it's not working on Garnecles: remember how I said his body's crystals make him look like a human-shaped cluster of flames? Well, flames produce heat, and the Plasma Shotgun fires, essentially, matter at the hottest you can get it. So yeah, put two and two together, and we have "elemental attributes."

@ Icaelus: I can add you, but first, I suggest you get your post count up to 10. There's this little thing about this site, where new users must have each of their posts approved by a moderator, until they reach 10 posts. Thing is, the mods around here have their hands quite full with various tasks, so your post is likely to not get the approval review until about a day or two later, at best.

I'll think of a way to deus-ex-machina you in, but only after your post-count is at or above 10, and that "Newly Registered" tag beneath your name is gone. Consider that incentive for getting your post-count up.

[jayjaycaps]

When was the weapons sheet posted?

[Zender_Solarheart]

A while back, with periodical updates as we went along. Check the first post; that's where I put a lot of this info.

[Icaelus]

Alright..consider it done, well, at least till the mods approve my other posts..

[Cliff Racer]

Gah. Zender, can you give me a quick summary of Olivia's position in the situation? I lost track and couldn't find my place.

[Zender_Solarheart]

Cliff, you are currently with Renre's group, which is within roughly 100-150 feet of Greg's group. You also have a bead on the flame-like Polygem commander about to drill Greg's (aka, my) balls into giblets...so yeah, now would be a good time to put Saphernia's abilities to the test, don't you think?

By the way, we're getting pretty damn close to the finale here...you could say Garnecles is something of a "penultimate boss" for RotP. Not spoiling the "final boss," but I will say this: any loose ends you may have noticed are pretty much made that way, as I'm already planning a "sequel RP" concept in my head. Whether we get around to said sequel RP is up for grabs, to some extent, but I'll try to make the finale of this one fulfilling in its own right. Wouldn't be much fun otherwise, now would it?

[napsii]

glad to see the thread moving along so nicely lol

i may bring in a second character next time around if they'll fit

[Cliff Racer]

flame-like Polygem commander about to drill Greg

Goodness.

Bleh, I am gonna end a skype rp early to respond, then go upstairs to sleep. Blurblurh!

[Suraru]

Skype?
PM me if you want my skype!

[napsii]

these geodians have a lot of power. i didnt want to waste danika's first chance at using rubenico on a pint sized attack xD

[Icaelus]

I don't seem to be able to post anything on the Creative Corner..these 10 posts are going to take a bit longer than I thought..

[Suraru]

Try postng in general.

[Suraru]

I've been just a little bit lost, we killed him? we just leveled up?
Where all together? what!?!?!

Last thing I posted was my character charging ahead with her shield, then stuff happened not relating to my character... did I miss something?

[Zender_Solarheart]

If you think today's update is rather wordy, and rushes events a bit, let me explain why:

We have reached 16 pages in the IC thread. The mods will likely lock down the RP if it exceeds 30 pages. So, to save space, I decided to just make that mondo-post, so we have a bit more room in which to enjoy the "night before the finale" segment, and tackle said finale at the Polygems' main hive. So yeah, consider it one big deus ex machina, with the purpose of avoiding the mods getting pissed off.
