Diskussion und Panzer

[Not Quite Dead]

This is the discussion topic for the Matoran und Panzer. Any all OOC posts and profiles go here. To play you need to post a profile for any characters or armor you'd like. Once they're approved you're good to go! I'll keep a list of important posts and news here as well.

 

Character Profile

Name:

Species:

Gender:

Powers/Gear

Appearance:

Personality:

Bio:

Armor:

 

 

Name:

Self explanatory.

 

Species:

You can play as a Matoran, (Can use an Edd for elemental powers, mass-produced and multiple-user armor is built for matoran usage) Skakdi, (Vision power + Elemental powers in conjunction with another Skakdi) or Vortixx (Big and strong, innate technical aptitude) Custom species need a lengthy description and approval.

 

Gender:

Self Explanatory. You can stick to boy/girl or add as much extra as you want, island culture is accepting about those things.

 

Powers/Gear:

Matoran get an elemental power, Skakdi get an element and vision power. You're free to choose any element/vision power from canon that isn't light or shadow, or request a custom power. Custom powers need to be balanced to be approved. Gear follows similar guidelines, basic items covered in section 2.1 are good to go, high tech items will need a detailed description and approval. Matoran can list their kanohi here. Keep in mind that kanohi given to matoran are powerless.

 

Appearance:

An image or detailed description will do.

 

Personality:

List a couple character traits, choose an MBTI type or whatever else your heart desires.

 

Bio:

This can be a brief history or a novel, just try to stick to the game's universe. Don't go mentioning Dark Hunters or great spirit robots.

 

Armor:

This is described more below, what this section is is any Armor your character either owns or is a crew member on. If you want to be a pirate or sailor, you could describe a ship as well. They have similar weapons and traits as Armor.

 

Armor Profile

Armor Name:

Category:

Armor Appearance:

Crew:

Loadout:

Kanohi:

 

 

Armor Name:

Because any cool vehicle needs a name.

 

Category:

Exo-suit, light, medium, heavy or Fikou.

 

Armor Appearance:

For lack of artistic skills, I haven't drawn the Armor or described them too much. Just think WW2 era aesthetics, heck, a picture of a real life tank is fine by me.

 

Crew:

Who are the PCs that man the Armor? This can be worked out IC or OOC in the discussion thread.

 

Loadout:

Refer to section 2.2 for basic loadouts, any custom or additional weapons need detailed descriptions.

 

Kanohi:

Here is the list of kanohi to pick from and their effects, some are passive and others are active. For simplicities sake, assume you press a big red button to activate the on/off type effects. As for the magnitude of effects, just play it fair, alright? Using a Hau to block one direct hit from a heavy coilgun is fine. Four simultaneous hits isn't.

 

Passive

Kaukau - Produces a watertight barrier

Pakari - Increased horsepower

Rau - Increased effective radio range

Calix - Increases Luck

Suletu - Crew gains telepathic links

Sanok - Secondary weapons are more accurate

Garai - Reduced gravity inside the hull

Huna - Camouflages armor based on surroundings

Volitak - Reduces noise and heat signatures

 

Active

Hau - Provides a temporary energy shield

Miru - Allows limited omnidirectional hovering with light armor

Kakama - Allows a burst of acceleration and speed

Akaku - Provides temporary x-ray and thermal imaging for the gunner

Ruru - Provides temporary night vision for the gunner

Mahiki - Allows limited range holographic projections

Kadin - Allows limited forward flight for light and medium armor

Arthron - Provides temporary sonar systems

Elda- Counters the Huna and Volitak

Edited March 29, 2015 by Tiragath

[NorikSigma]

Name: Zekev

 

Species: Skakdi

 

Gender: Male

 

Powers:

 

Zekev is a Skakdi of Ice, which gives him elemental control of ice while working in conjunction with another Skakdi.

 

He also has access to impact vision.

 

Gear:

 

Two metal-spiked knuckles

 

A good old Skakdi waraxe and shield

 

A wrist mounted hidden blade. The blade is a Rahkshi spike

 

A wristwatch that measures rough altitude, date, and time since a meal

 

Binoculars that have become smudged

 

A worn, sturdy electronic smart-tablet

 

Handheld radio jury-rigged to intercept common Seize and Vingt military (and commerical) radio broadcasts

 

A simple double barrelled single shot pistol, usually with several dozen extra rounds

Appearance: Clad in white,blue and silver, Zekev is a stubby Skakdi with straight spikes forming his organic spine, always sporting a wacky grin that makes it look like he's constantly amused by something. He has a prominent chin, and large, two-toed feet. In fact, he is as big and brutish in appearance as you can expect a Skakdi to be.

 

 

Personality: Zekev is happy-go-lucky and lazy. He has a sharp wit, and will talk endlessly if he's allowed to. However, he treats his job with the most consummate professionalism and hides a casually violent personality to his enemies.

 

 

Bio:

Raised in Neuf, Zekev has lived a difficult and dangerous life as a member of a Skakdi clan on the outskirts of that war plagued city. He made a name for himself as being eager and skilled in melee combat, a role most disliked for safe and effective ranged weapons. His clan had contributed much to Neuf's defence for several decades, before a horde of Rahkshi purged them.

 

Zekev slew the most powerful Rahk with a well-timed mine blast, and took its longest spike as the blade for his newest weapon.

 

Now alone and drifting, he joined a mercenary armoured company, where he met [insert name here]. Despite their differences in personality, they became fast friends and continued working together even after the rest of the crew were killed in a skirmish with some Vingt government or other. Together with their light tank the Ash Hound, the two have plied their trade across the realm.

 

Rumours of powerful artifacts to the west, this time with concrete evidence, has turned the pair westwards in search of it.

 

 

Armor:

 

-Armor Name: The Ash Hound

 

-Category: Medium

 

-Armor Appearance: Old and reliable, The Ash Hound is usually covered in a fine layer of ash due to many operations around Seize. Her armour is Desert-brown to blend in with the grey or brown backgrounds of war zones.

 

MoC: http://i.imgur.com/b2xX8q9.png

 

-Crew: Zekev and Cor Savea

 

-Loadout: A standard greypowder cannon, with normal, armour piercing(few) and acid gas(very few) shells

 

A belt fed disk launcher mounted in front of the driver

 

-Kanohi: Volitak - Reduces heat and noise signature

[Nato G]

Let the games begin!

____________________________________________________

 

Name: Oblitus.

Species: De-Matoran

Gender: Male

Powers/Gear: His EDD is built into the gauntlet of his left hand, and he has a smart-tablet built into his right. His weapon of choice is a serrated protosteel cutlass. His mask is equipped with a telescopic eyepiece, like that of an Akaku. Oblitus also wields a disk launcher with a five-disk spring-loaded clip; it fires razor-edged metal disks. After his visit to Ascension, he acquired several valuable items, including keys to the facility, a small elemental firearm, a wristwatch that allows him to teleport short distances, and a device for draining god essence.  

Appearance: Tall and lanky, Oblitus is almost skeletal in his appearance. His body armour is a glossy, polished black, with silver highlights. He wears a powerless Noble Mask of Scavenging that’s predominantly black, and brightens to silver at the edges. His eyes and heart stone are a fiery red, and he bears many scars from his time scavenging alone.  

MOC: http://i.imgur.com/3oMYrDL.png

Personality: Greedy, merciless and cruel, Oblitus has no compunctions and no loyalty. He takes what he wants, and does whatever he thinks is necessary to achieve his own ends.

Bio: Growing up in Seize, Oblitus grew tired of the riches and affluence of the city, and the false puppet emperor who “ruled” it. He left to find his own path, taking his personal Armour with him and carving a trail of pain and suffering behind him as he stole and killed his way towards his own selfish goals.

Armor: The “Solitarius Lupus”.

__________________________________________________________________________

 

Armor Name: The Solitarius Lupus

Category: Exo-Suit.

Armor Appearance: Covered in segmented, overlapping armour plates, the Lupus is a formidable suit. The armour is black and gunmetal grey, with some spiked sections in silver.

MOC: http://i.imgur.com/xdAaZxa.png

Crew: Oblitus.

Loadout: The right hand ends in a grasping appendage with sharpened claws, while the left is equipped with an elemental gun scavenged from destroyed Armour.

Kanohi: Pakari – allowing the Lupus to bear the extra weight of the elemental gun and still maintain its speed and manoeuvrability.  

 

_________________________________________________________________________

 

Name: Cor Saeva

Species: Vortixx

Gender: female

Powers/Gear: She has a pair of compact, double-barrelled greypowder blunderbusses, along with various explosive devices and a large machete for melee combat. Additionally, she possesses a smart-tablet and portable radio kept tucked away inside her coat, and also owns a heavy-duty Volo-Lutu launcher for scouting and occasionally boarding larger enemy armour. She doesn’t usually carry it all at once.

Appearance: Of an average height for a Vortixx, Cor wears steel-capped boots with spiked soles for extra grip (also useful for doing painful things to people when kicking them). She wears a long duster coat with an upturned collar over her lightweight body armour, and has a wide-brimmed akubra hat that shadows her face. Her armour is grey, and her coat is black with purple trim, to match the purple of her eyes and heart stone.

MOC: http://i.imgur.com/tfztsAn.png

Personality: Enigmatic, mysterious and aloof, Cor Saeva doesn’t talk much. She doesn’t have to. Her actions do all of the talking for her.

Bio: Raised in the harshness of Neuf, Cor has trained extensively in many different positions on different types of armour, and has mastered the creation of greypowder explosives. She usually makes her own greypowder from scratch, not trusting the manufactured stuff.

Feeling that her skills were unappreciated in Neuf, she joined up with a mercenary group, where one of the gunners – Lufon – made unwanted advances on her. After she showed him the error of his ways, the captain recognised her skills and fired the gunner, putting her in his place.

While part of the group, she met Zekev, and despite their differing personalities and outlooks on life, they became fast friends and continued working together even after the rest of the group were killed in a skirmish with enforcers from Vingt, who had been tipped off by Lufon

After killing Lufon in retribution for his treachery, she and Zekev – the only other survivor – took their medium Armour, the Ash Hound, and set off to investigate the rumours of ancient loot in Nomansland.

Armor: The “Ash Hound”.

[Not Quite Dead]

Oblitus, his exo-suit and Cor Saeva are good to go.

 

Norik, revolvers are a little too technical for greypowder. Hand held weapons are all muzzle loaded atm. Change that and you're good to go.

[NorikSigma]

Edited. Is that acceptable?

[Not Quite Dead]

Yepyep.

[Timageness]

Will definitely have a character up and running for this by tomorrow.

Exo-suits are Matoran only, right?

Edit: Nevermind. Found the answer myself.

Skimming is not your friend.

You can never stay away from me, Tiragath......

 

Name: Kik

Species: Matoran

Gender: Male

Powers/Gear: Earth, and Kik has a powerless Arthron. He also has a small combat knife and a arm mounted disc launcher.

Appearance: He is a small matoran with yellow eyes and light blue arms.

Personality: Clever, but can get a bit too cocky at times.

Bio: They thought he could never do it. They thought he was too small to be a pilot. WELL LOOK AT ME NOW, ***! 

Armor: Minotaur

 

Armor name: Minotaur

Category: Exo-Suit

Armor Appearance: Sleek and thin, the Minotaur is a very cool looking Exo-Suit. It got it's name from it's two "horns" on the head, which are obviously just metal spikes.

Crew: Just Kik, himself and him.

Loadout: Both hands have a sword extending from them. 

Kanohi: Huna: Now, the reason that

Minotaur was built like it was, was for stealth. Because it is so thin, there is less space for the Kanohi to cover. So unfortunately for the enemy, people will not know why it's called Minotaur until it is too late.

IT HAS BEGUN!!!

um...I mean, I'll have a profile up soon

[Makuta Miras]

It's time. For the cheesiest mech name ever. 

 

Name: Lohi

Species: Ga-Matoran

Gender: Male

Kanohi: Powerless Miru

Gear: EDD, belt mounted.

Appearance: Lohi's a McToran with blue feet, a blue mask and a black body and arms.

Personality: Most of the time, Lohi can seem as if he's just a normal person- kind, not too destructive, actually has some morals... But when it comes down to a fight, he's a veritable demon, with no regard for others' lives or the destruction he wreaks.

Bio: Once a scout in Treize's army, Lohi defected after he got bored not being able to destroy stuff. Then he heard about Nomansland.

Armour: Shreddah Klawz

 

Armour name: Shreddah Klawz

Category: Exo-Suit

Armour appearance: Shreddah Klawz is black pretty much all over, with long, skinny legs and arms that come down to its knees. The cockpit is mounted in the torso with minimum armouring, and the upper left arm is covered by a triangular sheet of metal to act as some sort of shield.

Crew: Lohi

Loadout: Massive articulated claws on each hand. Thus the name.

Kanohi: Great Volitak

Edited January 18, 2015 by Makuta Miras

[silo]

“Keep your friends non existent and your enemies far, far away.”

 

Full Name: Olis - the first Toa

Gender: Male Species: Matoran (toa) Element: Gravity

Equipment:

• Great Kanohi Matatu, mask of telekinesis

• An EDD (since his transformation into a toa, useless)

• An electronic smart tablet in a shock-proof casing and a primitive radio

• Focusing Gauntlets - control and direct Olis’ element more effectively

• A metal Kanoka disc launcher - ammo includes lots of powerless metal discs and a small amount of low-level Freezes and Weakens Kanoka discs. He also possesses one medium level Removes Poison disc, but is saving it for an emergency.

• Supplies

Powers:

• Elemental control over Gravity

• Mask power of telekinesis

• Like all beings of Gravity, Olis has increased resistance to high pressures and gravitational attacks

Physical characteristics:

Olis stands over 8 feet tall and is clad entirely  in industrial-looking  armour of gunmetal and dark steel grey, with a purple sheen to it. His gauntlets are silver and organic-looking. Olis’ mask is angular and geometric, with a vertical scar running across the right eye, which is dark. His working eye and heartlight are yellow-white.

Weakness: Olis is not the strongest of the toa, mostly relying on his powers.

Mental characteristics:

A lifetime as a mercenary has made Olis cynical, pessimistic and overly suspicious, but has also given him a deadpan sense of humour.  On his agenda, personal motives come before everything else, including allies, friends, money and power. Olis might be considered immoral, trusting only himself fully.

Weakness: Olis can be abrasive, skeptical and untrusting.

Biography:

Very little is known about Olis' early life, but it is suspected that he lived as a matoran in one of the major settlements years  ago, but decided to strike out on his own, becoming a bandit and later a freelance mercenary. After travelling with Oblitus and Einefus to reawaken Ascension, he transformed with the power of a Toa Stone.

Allegiances: Himself, temporary allies

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Armour Name: Purple

Category: Exo-Suit Crew: Olis

Loadout:

• An elemental cannon on the left arm - fires bolts of power that massively increase or decrease the gravity wherever they hit for a small amount of time

• A greypowder cannon on the right arm

• Large blades on both arms

Kanohi:

• Kanohi Garai, elemental mask of Gravity - allows Purple to jump and move with more agility due to decreased gravity around the suit

Physical characteristics:

A head above skakdi, Purple is surprisingly agile for something that looks so heavy and industrial. It’s armour is light and partially formed of bolted down scrap metal, and it is covered from head to three-taloned foot in worn purple paint. It's legs are double jointed like an animal's, and its name is just visible stenciled on its cockpit.

Weakness: While it’s armour has been repaired and improved several times, Purple lacks much resilience.

Current owner: Olis

[Daniel the Finlander]

I might consider making a character with a medium tank. Would anyone be interested in being part of the crew?

[Dane-gerous]

I might.

[Some Random Phrase]

I probably would, as soon as I post a profile.

[silo]

Would anyone be interested in being part of the crew of the Heavy the Jattiko, along with me and Miras?

[Dane-gerous]

Sure.

[The UltimoScorp]

FINALLY.

 

Expect a profile in the next few hours.

[Some Random Phrase]

Name:

Inik

 

Species:

Matoran

 

Gender:

M

 

Powers/Gear:

He has an EDD, wristmounted, as well as a metal canister with a substantial amount of Greypowder. The EDD is attached to a gauntlet with a retractable metal blade that he can mold with the limited Iron powers his EDD gives him. Also has a smart tablet, 7inch, with a custom impact-absorbing case, along with a small bag of tools.

 

Appearance:

He is a young silver Fe-Matoran, with a Kadin custom-molded to resemble a Huna.

 

Personality:

Inik is eager, young, and ambitious. He has read all the novels Treize has to offer about the great Toa of old, and feels he now has the perfect opportunity to go find adventure now that he's fired.

 

Bio:

Inik worked as a random employee in a Treize business, all the while building things he felt would be important when he ventured off. Unfortunately, his Armor fell on him once, and in the hospitol, he recieved a notice that said he was fired. Inik was not saddened by this news: Rather, he was thrilled. FInally, a chance to have an adventure!

 

Armor:

Hero's Destiny

--------------------

Armor Name:

Hero's Destiny

 

Category:

Exo-suit

 

Armor Appearance:

Silver-and-gold painted. It is very shiny, from constant polishing by Inik. The armor is slightly less resilient, but makes up for it in maneuverability. It is more maneuverable then many.

 

Crew:

Inik.

 

Loadout:

As Inik designed his armor for adventuring, it has more weapons. Two shoulder-mounted detachable muzzleloaders, and the right hand is a saw. Left hand is a claw.

 

Kanohi:

Kadin

[Constructelf]

Would anyone be interested in being part of the crew of the Heavy the Jattiko, along with me and Miras?

Would anyone be interested in being part of the crew of the Heavy the Jattiko, along with me and Miras?

Me.

[Makuta Miras]

For those of you looking to join the Jatikko, we're currently in need of a loader, a navigator and a radio operator. The navigator and radio operator need to have EDDs so that they can double as gunners for the secondary elemental weaponry. PM me or Sil about those positions!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh also yay 700 posts

Edited January 18, 2015 by Makuta Miras

[silo]

Wow, quite a few people want to

Currently, we have me playing the commander/planner, Miras as the gunner, Dan the Finlander playing the mechanic and Construct as someone else.

We need a more gunners, navigators and radio-ers.

 

EDIT: Miras, you ninja!

Edited January 18, 2015 by Sil

[Some Random Phrase]

Inik could do navigation.

Edited January 18, 2015 by Teclax Master of Tech

[Makuta Miras]

We're more of a religious terror group here at the Jatikko, so Inik might not fit in very well. Also, navigator's now been taken by Voltex, and One-Eyed Construct is the radio operator.

[Some Random Phrase]

Okay.

[silo]

We're not really terrorists...

 

 

 

oh wait we are

EDIT: It has been decided: we are banditerrorists!

Edited January 18, 2015 by Sil

[Dane-gerous]

Yay, terrorism!

[Voltex]

This will require some modifications to the profile I was going to submit, but that's fine haha

[Not Quite Dead]

Miras, Sil, Vahkidane and Teclax's profiles are good to go.

[The UltimoScorp]

Agh, lost my profile I'd written to a computer crash. Ah, well, here goes!

 

Name: Kat

 

Species: Ta-Matoran

 

Gender: Female

 

Appearance: Lithe and muscular, Kat is physical perfection. Her armor is burnished red and gold, over which she typically wears a black pilot jacket(cause she's such a maverick.) Her Kanohi Hau is modified, covering her entire head, becoming a full helmet. 

 

Gear/powers: chest mounted Edd gives Kat limited elemental abilities, wrist mounted smart tablet for nav and recreation, Six shot, clip fed disc launcher fires metal razor discs holstered on her chest, left side for easy access. Keeps a combat knife strapped to her leg, and carries a small leather satchel for money and other small items.

 

Personality: Kat is reckless, brash, and impulsive in most things. Friendly to those she likes, downright vile to those she doesn't, Kat will not hesitate to save a friend, or down an enemy.

 

Bio: Kat was part of an experimental Exo-suit cell, trying to find better combat roles for the agile machines. Discharged after an accident with a heavy coil gun, and the death of a teammate, she left with a prototype suit, and became a mercenary. She's also wanted by Trieze for taking the Suit.

 

Armor: Legion(name subject to change)

 

Armor Name: Legion

 

Category: Exo-Suit

 

Appearance: A digitigrade legged suit, Legion is tall and black, with red stripes. The paint is faded at the joints, but the old girl's been faithful, and hasn't failed me yet. She's a beauty, with heavier armor plating than most Suits, and twice as maneuverable. She's not built for stealth, that's for sure, but she sure packs a punch. MOC: http://imgur.com/a/Jo8Vt#h6YpX3n

 

Loadout: Legion's a special Suit, so she's built differently than most. Packing a single elemental cannon slung under the chassis, two light belt-fed disc launchers on the shoulders, and a medium breech-loading greypowder cannon on the right side. On the left is a clawed hand, dexterous enough to wield a sword or mace(albeit not with any grace or form) and powerful enough to gouge and rip through armor.

 

Kanohi: Pakari (to handle the weight of the Suit's armaments, and still allow it to move.)

 

Crew: 1 (Kat)

@Ultimo. Coilguns are only found on heavy armor because of the huge batteries needed to power them. You can only keep it if you want to necessitate being plugged into an outlet 24/7
