The only reason I even allowed it was the huge power drain you put in, which would mean that he wouldn't spend that long in the field compared to the other Heroes. OOC: Aye, he's fine as-is.

Rylinth Anderfel Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) IC: Alex Drift - Tranquis VII extraction pointThis was not Drift's day. First: boring extraction job. Second: having to fly citizens back and forth all day when his buddy was out punching people with a crazy buzz-saw-arm-thing. Third: his cockpit had somehow picked up the smell of burnt rubber from Tranquis VII. Hadn't he asked Zib for the exciting missions?Oh well. Drift touched down on the extraction point and signaled the other ships to do likewise. Once down, he opened the doors and yelled through the intercom, "Alright everybody! We're home! Please exit the craft in an orderly fashion and have a nice day. Next time those brains come pickin' around, just give us a call."And with the last of them gone, he was onto the fourth sour spot of his day: having to wait for Echo. Drift was too tired to call the other Hero up, so he just sent an "Extract" objective to Echo's HUD and sat back to rest. He really needed a recharge... IC: Echo - Grand Tranq battleEcho got the message, but was too busy slashing at the black beast to care. He did, however, relay the transmission to Riot and Stryker.

silo Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Er, the biography for this Hero is questionable. Who is Ardor? Also, if he is a rogue Hero that doesn't obey Hero Factory orders, he would be better classified as a villain. Further, this biography seems to preclude him from going on missions with the other characters, which is something I want to avoid. I'm not going to write you your own interaction subplot if I don't even know what it is. Ardor is Onaku's character, who me and Onaku previously agreed had hired Vandal some time ago to aid in his plans. I suppose Vandal might be better classified as a villain, but he's more neutral. I chose to call him a "hero" in the sense of a species, not a job description. As for Vandal's past, I'm not really sure why him having a past that happened before the game's events would be a problem...his character still has time to develop, and giving him a past seems like a good way to help that development. Are you saying that you have an issue with something specific in his bio, or are you saying he shouldn't have a bio at all? What do you mean "write me an interaction subplot"?Thanks in advance~ .

Name: Dr. Halmos Powers, Abilities, and Weapons: Halmos is a doctor of engineering, meaning he's skilled at repairing stuff. He wears a noble Rau in orange which allows him to understand unknown languages and bestial communication. After determining he was too slow to be an effective fighter, Halmos designed a device to disguise his internal system as that of a civilian, allowing him to get on the hero's side when he needs it. He carries 20 throwing knives on the inside of his lab coat. Appearance: Halmos is short enough to get away with being a civilian. He is orange with dark blue marks, and wears a noble Rau in orange on his face. He has a hunch in his back and wears a white lab coat. Bio: Halmos was a scientist employed to investigate quaza further and see if it was possible to melt it down and put it in people's veins. Proving so, the offices held him prisoner to continue experiments. He got revenge by infecting a traveling Hero, which wrecked everything at Hero Factory and started a war between the two, in which Halmos escaped to Tranquis.

Location: Tranquis, heading towards Traferous.Not approved. While Halmos can have translation abilities (I'm wondering if those are necessary...I kinda evoke the "everyone in the galaxy speaks English" trope in here to save a headache), he's not going to have an actual Rau...that would mean he traveled into a Bionicle dimension to get it. This is Hero Factory. I think we have more than enough story opportunities in here without making a crossover mashup. I think that would be the subject of a different RPG. Biography:Vandal was built a while ago as a hero, but developed an unforeseen independence. He started questioning orders, doubting his leaders. Eventually he managed to remove his command chip and strike out on his own, travelling across countless worlds in search of fame, glory and wealth. He found life as a mercenary suited him best. Eventually he found Ardor, whose plans held the appealing glint of gold. Ardor is Onaku's character, who me and Onaku previously agreed had hired Vandal some time ago to aid in his plans. I suppose Vandal might be better classified as a villain, but he's more neutral. I chose to call him a "hero" in the sense of a species, not a job description.

I was thinking that your character was connected to a mysterious character named "Ardor" who I would have to play as in a gold hunt. I'm a little baffled as to why Ardor would hire a mercenary, but if it's IC for him, then so be it. Profile approved. However, because of his nature, this character probably won't start at HQ like the other Heroes, but you probably won't know where until I announce mission #2. Also, if Ardor is cannot be approved, I will have to ask you to change that backstory.

If possible, it always begins a fight with an aerial attack (it can't fly, but uses its exceptional leap and climbing capabilities to get the drop on its opponents). It's also extremely good at hiding in the shadows. Weapon(s): Marrow is covered head to toe in razor sharp spikes. Its main form of offense is the particularly long pair that emerges from the ends of its arms in place of hands. Appearance: Marrow is hunched and bird-like in appearance. Vicious spikes sprout from every angle of its twisted form and its arms are unnaturally long and end in jagged blades. It is colored red and black. Bio: Marrow is something of an enigma. No one is sure where it came from... or how it became so violent. It is driven by a perpetual bloodlust and an insatiable hunger. It feeds on metal and devours quaza, which it can “smell”, giving it a way to track down Heroes. And when Marrow takes down a Hero, they usually don't get back up.

silo Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 OOC: Okay, I'm starting to get it. I was thinking that your character was connected to a mysterious character named "Ardor" who I would have to play as in a gold hunt. I'm a little baffled as to why Ardor would hire a mercenary, but if it's IC for him, then so be it. Profile approved. However, because of his nature, this character probably won't start at HQ like the other Heroes, but you probably won't know where until I announce mission #2. Also, if Ardor is cannot be approved, I will have to ask you to change that backstory. Yeah, I'll wait till Ardor is approved to play Vandal...if he doesn't get approved at all, I'll edit the bio.Thanks . Kathok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nato G Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I'm going to hold off a verdict, and pose the question to the other players: do you think these temperature ranges are better? OOC: According to my quick consultation of Doctor Google, the various components of circuit boards and wiring melt at the following temperatures: Silicon at 1,414 °C. Copper at 1,085 °C, and Aluminium at a comparatively low 660.3 °C. This still kind of means that Nimius' flames could still potentially be causing some parts people's internal wiring and circuits to begin melting or falling apart without him even having to actually touch them. Assuming, of course, that heroes even actually have circuits, or that there isn't some component in a hero that insulates those circuits against heat. If they are, then I have no further objections, so I guess it's up to you to decide whether that's the case or not. IC: Crowley - Sunny Square.

Onaku Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 OOC: Keep in mind that the point of Nimius is that his powers are so destructive that the Hero Factory had to place him on a team reserved for the most critical of situations only, and I want that to be reflected in his powers.

ZippyWharrgarbl Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) OOC: I actually had a question about Marrow: it mentions it drinks Quaza. How do you drink a crystal? Unless the guy liquidises it first, like a spider. That'd be spooky. It's a pretty cool design otherwise, don't get me wrong. The Quaza thing was just a little confusing.

Rylinth Anderfel Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) OOC: To Fishers' question: No, Marrow can not fly. It has slightly higher than average jumping and climbing capabilities to make up for it though. I'll edit that into the profile.To ZippyWhargarrbl's question: I always got the impression that the Hero cores distributed some sort of energized form of quaza throughout the system. Marrow can absorb this energy as well as crush the actual crystal material to powder. Sort of like how Chi had a liquid form and a crystal form... Update: I changed the profile to say "devours quaza" instead, just to be more clear. Edited October 17, 2015 by Rylinth Anderfel "It doesn't matter how big your first bite is.

ZippyWharrgarbl Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 OOC: The Quaza is part of the energy core, which seems to be like a battery. I don't think it distributes crystal anywhere. If it did, where's it going to get it from? The core? You'd run out of core pretty quick. Memoirs of the Dead entry: The Unknown Turaga, a tale from the late Chronicler Kodan's journal.

fishers64 Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) OOC: I'm going to say that Ardor approved, and profile changes to Marrow approved. The flame powers need to be able to work, so yeah. I warn you Onaku - you're starting to build a bit of a reputation for building overpowered characters. For quaza - absorbing quaza energy is fine. Quaza is not a liquid, though - it's a rock. (I'm still sort of waiting for that battle between Aza, Ezec and the others to end...sort of. I'm writing out the mission details ATM.)

Rylinth Anderfel Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 OOC: I never said "liquid". I said "energy-form". Going with your interpretation of the quaza cores as batteries, the substance I'm envisioning is like the electricity generated by the battery. Hero cores don't use electricity, they use quaza energy, which is what Marrow can absorb. Your point still stands though, so I'll suppose Marrow will just sort of crunch up any quaza he gets a hold of. "It doesn't matter how big your first bite is.

ZippyWharrgarbl Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) OOC: Confusingly, Heroes have been shown to have at least a passing knowledge of food. I don't get it, either, but they reference food at least twice in Savage Planet. One mention even implies they eat- Nex (I think?) replies to "This'll be a piece of cake" with "Mm, cake". Hero Factory is a mysterious enigma. So point is they'll probably know what a marshmallow is. I'm glad I could be here for this incredibly vital information.

"You know how childish you sound when you make up words, right?"OOC: I was under the same impression as ZippyWharrgarbl regarding Hero Factory and food. IC Shade - Meeting Room: Realizing that heroes probably didn't have as wide a selection of variety as an assassin might regarding what food they could choose to eat at mealtime, Shade quickly made to cover his tracks: "What, I can't make up a silly-sounding name to call you by?" Turning to Striker with a grin, Shade said, "If you don't answer my previous question, I'll be forced to make one for you too." "He who loves his brother most hits him hardest." -Vicarath.

"I think I liked the old days, when The Factory was full of professionals." He said to Markus. "Well, besides, you of course." Regarding Shade once more, he said evenly, "John Striker.
