Avvy RP VIII: Discussion VIII - This Isn't Love

Arhra · 05-05-2011, 05:35 AM

We were long overdue a new discussion thread.

Ah a duet. It's been too long. My only sadness is robot did not explode.

I... I have to admit I didn't get the joke until I clicked that Wikipedia link.

Since the singing alone is not enough to cause robosplosion, I guess some of youse guys will have to get in there and punch things until Bob/Steve/Joe/Vinnie robosplodes instead.

Song's not over yet; anything can happen! I mean, we still haven't gotten to the "Think I'm mutating, just so you know" line yet. Plus now we have a drummer. That can only mean good things, right?

Okay, I might have embroidered on Bard's attack just a little.

Furyrobo is probably dead, maybe, but throwing in anything extra on top is good!

And the NPF was alright all along, probably!

Aside from a slight moon-beast infestation.

Eh, saw it coming.

Bard The 5th LW · 05-18-2011, 02:16 PM

Stuff going on. Post is questionable. Exams next week.

Overcast · 05-22-2011, 06:29 AM

Rovercast returns!

Tell me if this is any good, I'm tired right now so these powers may not be a good idea when I wake up in the morning.

Name: Rovercast
Abilities: Overcast's transformation into a robot has gifted him with a few natural gifts.

Robostrength!: Being a robot Rovercast is a fair bit stronger than your average person. So he doesn't need any gloves to lift big things over his head.
Post-quantum Processors: Rovercast is a highly advanced piece of technology, and can run through programs like nobody's business.
Robo-superiority!: Robots do not eat. Do not drink. But they feel. They feel just like you and me.

On top of that Overcast's quirkiness has always been helpful, but never quite as efficient as he would have liked. With his newfound takeover of a shiny new robot body he has refined some of his abilities.

Changegun/thrower: The infinite masses of change that used to fill his pockets have been given a more suitable means for Overcast to fire them from rather than relying on ninjalike throwing skills. He now blasts them like ammunition, and can spray liquid metals all over the place.
Digital Voidlight Blade: A physical manifestation of the energies that OC used to use to exaggerate and dull events that went on around him. Now he just makes crazy things happen. People who are hit by the blade have two prospects, either OC is not being weird and they get cut, or he is and then weird shit happens. Like growing an extra face that doesn't like you, or telling all your friends that you wear women's clothing. It is more suitable to use the latter on mooks though, because bosses have the willpower to resist the unconcentrated quirkiness.

Equipment:
The Box: The Box was supposed to be indestructible, but the power of fury caused it to bust on multiple cases. It has since been reinforced, but is greatly inflexible now. No longer able to make it's own body it has to invade someone else's whenever he dies off. But it is not truly beyond indestructible. It isn't even in this universe anymore.

Arhra · 05-24-2011, 05:16 AM

Just to get people thinking, we're going to need to get through the moonbeasts and to the NPF somehow. Gotta start planning!

For a start, here's three ideas that popped into my head:

1) Blitzkrieg! We take everything spacegoing and fast we have and we charge in there like it's a trench on the Death Star. Flocks of moonbeasts inevitable. Probably a bumpy landing.

2) Undercover! We all put on clever disguises and sneak in there like its Metal Gear. May need to see how good we are at acting like moonbeasts or hiding in cardboard boxes.

3) Wait! Maybe they'll go away.

On the subject of moon monsters, there's a lot of variety. The easy way to think of some is take a regular monster, then make it weird and alien. Or add crystals. You know the drill. Beware the drill-unicorn.

Arhra · 06-08-2011, 09:34 AM

Someone has shown up to explain the plot!

Not the best time to put my 'Put more NPCs in Avvy' ideas into action I suppose.

But it's about time we hired a narrator.

I am on top of my schedule again, so let's get this thing done.

Stupid North Pole fight has been put back for now because it only really affects AB and I didn't want to delay posting another day or two simply to include it.

To summarise the important things, the NPF is on the Moon, the NPF is being invaded by moon-monsters, there is someone at the city centre doing horrible things to the fabric of space and time (which is the reason for the moon monsters) and we have spaceships to get there.

Arhra · 07-13-2011, 09:53 AM

Bluh, sorry for taking so long to write an update.

I think I'm suffering from a bit of ending fatigue, which is not a good thing for a GM to have!

Time to round everyone up and get things finished.

Teal Mage · 07-16-2011, 06:01 AM

I'm baaaack!

Finally have time for this RP. Hope my post was alright! Busted out my Dragonzord, though your guess is as good as mine as to how long it'll last in battle. I talked the upgrade over with Arhra before - a long time ago - and, in case I haven't posted the concept pieces yet, the Dragonzordy Napan Custom - Magical Kawaii (Variant T) is mainly a combination of the Dragonzord, and, uh, this thing. You're free to decide what that might look like in your head. God knows, I can't describe it.

Oh, and yes, I am cheating. It isn't my fault that none of my characters have been musically inclined to date!

Incidentially, for anyone wondering about why I threw an Evangelion reference in, there's a couple reasons. Simplest is that Fly Me to the Moon is the Ending Theme from the original Evagelion anime. More complicated one is that anything related to Arhra - and obviously, we're going to be fighting possessed Arhra I - has strange Evangelion overtones, for some reason. Rose is lampshading that, or trying to, at least.

Anyway, I hope you like the milk Mauve! You wouldn't believe how hard it was to get that. Even with the infinite power of the Fury!
