You know, everyone is enjoying putting swords and stuff on their chars, but what about the start up...

So I think the instruments and the music will be more important then conventional weaponry and physical attacks...

Well, has Ecurt objected to anybody putting swords and stuff on their chars?

Title: Z (real name: Ken Young)
Age: 19
Eyes: Black but wears red contacts
Hairstyle: Short black spiky hair
Skin: Dark Tan
Outfit: Wears your average clothes. A t-shirt, pair of blue jeans that actually fit, and a chain belt.
Instrument: Gibson Electric/Acoustic Guitar black with a gold dragon drawn on the fretboard with a knife built into the back of the guitar (the places he plays at gets pretty rough).
Genre: Plays mostly punk but dabbles in new rock and classic rock.
Bling bling: His class ring and a fossil blue watch. He also drives a suped up Harley Davidson Night Train.
BTM: He's just your normal wannabe rock star who fell in love with the music at a young age and been playing since he was 15. He never had a big paying gigs but he does well enough.
Scandals: Has a thing about playing classic Queen as well as Teenage Dirtbag. He also is a massive pyromaniac

Nope, but I doubt they'll be useful.

Ecurt's guys weapon is his microphone whip...

Title: teh Rockzorz
Age: 23
Eyes: Hair is too long to ever see them
Hairstyle: Typical punk-ish, hair is everywhere and always covers face
Skin: Pale
Outfit: Uhm�band t-shirt (never his own band though) and jeans
Instrument: Drumsticks that he can enlarge
Genre: Punkish/TK
Bling bling: Carries a bag full of the clangy things from drum sets (about 10-15) that he can control with his mind. They are nigh indestructible, so he can use them for shields or to slice through stuff. Also can hop on and fly around on them.
BTM: A member of Geek Factz and Pron for awhile, Rockzorz eventually got bored and now drums for any band that wants him. He�s not really Telekinetic, but he had his cymbals tuned to his brainwaves.
Scandals: Uh�I dunno.

Forever Zero · 02-23-2004, 05:12 PM

Well, I have no clue how it will work then... or why conventional weapons wouldn't work...

02-23-2004, 05:15 PM

I'm guessing he means guns and the such...flying cymbals and swords hidden in guitars arent really conventional.

Forever Zero · 02-23-2004, 05:25 PM

But why would a robot be immune to bullets but not swords? (Or flying cymbals...)

IHateMakingNames · 02-23-2004, 05:26 PM

Because Ecurt said so, and this is his RP.

Mr. Viewtiful · 02-23-2004, 07:11 PM

Yo. As far as weapons go, as long as Ecurt ays it's okay, it's cool with me (IMHO).

And on Thumpman's fighting style: the boombox is just there for his musical instrument, and to get him 'in the groove.' I actally envisioned his fighting to be a mix between breakdancing and improv fighting (using whatever's handy, like a lead pipe or trashcan lid. Think Jackie Chan, less kung-fu, more style).

I can already see some possible rivalries developing....this should make things interesting...
