Thread: Anti-Heroes

But...

Legends never die

Oh, Gest, have I got your actions yet?

I was going to write up a chapter, that's all...

Oh, just realised that the Prelude is set in Canterbury. That should be York. Oh noes. That'll bug me forever, now.

Um...few things. Not all of you in the chapter, sorry, I is tired

Dierdro Dayo...since it was early on in the character's life, I feel the need for justification.

1. You took the Metatron on, alone, without the aid of any other character.
2. You have witnessed what the Metatron is capable of.
3. Defeat was not at all a surprise result.

Apologies, I realise you might a little frustrated at that.

If you wish to submit a new character, it can be accepted.


Let this be a warning - power, survival, teamwork, planning. Else it's head imploding time.

great chapter.. I feel a little.. shy xD but c'mon I'm an assassin I've been through worse

Lol I still find it strange I'm like the only female character playing heh... men should starting fighting themselves for me

*goes to dialogue thread*

Tsk.



You made a big mistake.

Oh have I? Let's wait and see

Bit worried about Omnius' silence. It's...ominous...

Have I had actions from any of the new character? That worries me.

I'm a worrying kinda guy.

You don't tend to talk much when your head has imploded.

Oh noes, I've pushed him over the edge!

In more relevant news, I'll probably continue this system of chapters without all characters involved. It means I don't have to do massive chapters covering all of you, and you all don't have to be kept waiting by one person slow at handing in actions.

Oh, any of the new characters have actions for me, while I'm thinking? Hmm...

You are a sweet kinda guy.

I've been working.

Anyway there's already a character sheet on the other page. I read the new chapter first and got worried you thought I was claiming from that post I wanted Dierdro to die. I'm relieved to see you just decided to crush his 11 ton balls. For shame for killing the black guy first though. Anyway yeah I wanted to make a character on the faction that's against the anti-hero because I want to balance it out a little.


Character Name: Alidod
Gender: Male
Age: 40
Appearance: Pale skin, long white hair, deep blue eyes
Favored Weapons: He caries nothing.
Talents: Some ancient fighting style based on his particular control of the elements.
Persona: A polite charismatic fellow that keeps his abilities under the surface, favoring to pretend to befriend people at first
Alignment: If the anti-hero is good, I guess that makes him bad.
Special Power: Nullifies abilities or Water Control

On the other page I thought of water control because he could kill people in conversation by lowering their water temperature and would thusly have a colder presence but then I thought if the usual intention of this character is a spy then his mind would just be read and he wouldn't matter anymore either. So I'm leaving it up to you to pick what would suit the story better, a spy that nullifies the team leaving them vulnerable to attack or a villain to carries a cold presence.

I decided that your character would die after recieving your actions, not after seeing your new character profile (which I still have yet to look over, but I'm happy enough to let you rejoin soonish if that's what you want).

As I think I've said several times, and most people have picked up quite nicely, this isn't about Good/Bad factions. It is unlikely to end with all the Good characters fighting the Bad characters. More likely is various characters from all Good/Bad/Neutral will create and divide into a varied multitude of alliances and factions.

It isn't the Bad faction vs. the Good faction. Not even slightly.

I think its funny how you think I'm somehow the commonly accepted opinion of "good".

I'm just going off what you said, whether or not your character is "good" he sounded like a fascist that will have a lot of allies so I'm just making another adversary.

I suppose ice control would be better than water for what I was saying for the second possibility of the character.

The alignment is not to do with your 'faction'. Your faction, alliances, truces, agreements, temporary unions, coalitions, whatever, are utterly freeform and between you and the other characters regardless of alignment.

Alignment will feature heavily later on, but not in the way you seem to be thinking.

We shall soon see.


New chapter tonight?

Uncertain. Very few new characters (metcalfracing, jeff, grasshoppa) have sent back actions. Which makes it hard for me to continue the story without them falling behind.

There may be some Eloa, some Umbrion, some Keaton...maybe.

Oh, and we might catch up with Repus.

I'm still wondering what you think about the character.

Character Name: Alidod
Gender: Male
Age: 40
Appearance: Pale skin, long white hair, deep blue eyes
Favoured Weapons: Prefers not to use weapons, favours special power in combat
Talents: Charisma, charm
Persona: A polite charismatic fellow that keeps his abilities under the surface, choosing much more insidious actions
Alignment: Bad
Special Power: Ice Manipulation

This? It looks fine. More Keaton-orientated than your last, in terms of preferring powers over weapons, ability to decieve, etc. Fight fire with fire?

Was it cunning to tell people in a public thread that your character is cunning and insidious? Surely that will make getting other players to trust you more difficult? I don't know.

Yeah, the character seems fine. Will appear soonish, if you're happy.

Well he won't be spying for very long anyway since he can't nullify his presence from Keaton. I might start him off as a good person who seems merely quick witted that doesn't join the evil faction until muvh later anyway, so his thoughts might be a tad dark but in the beginning he wouldn't be out to cause any problems.

His cold presence would be enough to make people feel uncomfortable anyway.

...there isn't an evil faction. We've established that.

He sounds like Keaton.

Hm.


We'll see how large a part he shall play in my plans.

Wait, would you prefer power negation? That'd possibly be more fun, as there's already an Ice Manipulating character.

Your call.
