Shadower

well, those two villains i said about were/are parts of on going or just starting plots, which are open to anyone who want to give them ago. Theres a lot of give in the characters themselves, as i found with Seff when he played Magnus Fliheart for me in the first Drade plotline, who was based on the master from doctor who if i remember right, but it made the character even more than want i had thought it could be, and perfect for the plot.

As for the whole Sha'dower's foe, theres so much give in it that anything would be fine, of course the main fact of the person(s) were once his company board memeber(s) who were sacked for attempting to kill him, steal his money, and company from him, for most parts. This means any of them could be now after him, or maybe it's someone whoes been hired to get him by one of them.. who knows!?

sorry guys, RL work had me doing overtime this evening, so i couldn't be on, im fully free on sunday however.

Ok, i'll bite first.

I got two heroes (maybe a few more) that need a villain chatacter making their life that bit more.. harder, darker, interesting.. they are as follows.

Drade (at this time not active in RP due to plotline "death") his main foe, and that of the group he belong to "The Hunters Guild" is Seeress Deagcen. She is the leader of the "Cult of choas" who has been at war with Drade's group for a very long time. Now you can find out more on her by the older plots post here on the boards, mostly they are in the IC Stroy post or have drade's name in the title of them. ( if your unable to track them down i can pm you their page numbers/names.)


There is also, Sha'dower aka Sean O'brain, a mutli millionaire from england who has come back to Paragon this week. He has a villain who want not only his powers, but his company and money, the person in question is his ex board chairman ( who as yet i haven't got around to making a name for) with the aid of a group of hired guns.

Now either of these i would love to have an in game RP villain counterpart foe with, as it would make it that bit more better for me to RP the somewhat ramdom and such events that happen.

im free on sunday, as for tomorrow.. possibly, as i have work till 19 gmt, then have to do a few other things before coming online.

i take it we are meeting up again this week, wednesday or sunday or.. which ever day is best?

ok, sorry guys for not being on tonight, but due to RL matters im not ingame tonight at all, i'll be around however over the weekend so please tell me what level you got upto so i can get VGX-3 upto the sameish level as the rest, even if i have to do the radio bank mission to get the jet backpack.

Again sorry.

Either is fine, of course i normally have thursdays off from work, so i normal play longer on the night before the day off, due to being able to sleep in the next day more.
Sundays are fine aswell since they just are.

im sadly a tad busy tonight and won't be on till 8:30/9:00pmish at the earlyest, ever then i have something else to attend to, im fine for friday, or any point over the weekend.

Last night was indeed the most fun i have had in sometime of playing the game, VGX had to do it's part as it is meant to, I.E support role, and since nearly all of it's attacks have some form of knockback on them, it came in handy to keep the bad guys away from it.

I think the team as a whole has a really good set up, even with the sudden bad lag we had last night i only saw one person go to skull, of course a healer character maybe needed for the more higher level guys, but we can see if there is the need once everything is up to the levels later in the game.

For the next meet time: anything as long as i have at least a days notice, so i can replan anything that maybe at the time around it.

As for where this to go: UP and up, if anything i believe those could of been the quickest times i have done in teams for thoses missions/levels. And the idea of following the clockwork story arc i feel could work, of course theres the taskforce of them, but you don't have to do that all in one night, it can be spread over a few nights, which will work to our way of doing this.

I have got a small sidestory already set up and waiting to go for VGX as to why it's there and how it came to be that it found the group, but that can wait for once we are a bit further on.

One question: Are we going to end up going into a SG together, get the team a base of operations?

i'll try my best to be there on time, but i do have my dinner around that time too, so i maybe late.

either, as long as it's a tech.

Me as VGX-3 Enforcer, a rather large battlearmour, which appears to be remote controlled by someone, built by the G.R.A.T.A.R.U. ( RP Company of mine, semi in game) for hero assistance as well as army.

Should be on appox. 7 ish hopefully, if not 8pm (gmt time).

More of his story will unfold as you get to "enjoy" it's company.

Oh ok then, and that is a good question, what one is it? Union or Defiant?

ok one more question, "clean" tech is what sort of look? Techbot? Crey? TechWired? one of the others i can't remember the name of at this time..?

hmm.. new tech hero.. in a suit of armour.. "clean" tech look, hmm.. now which slot to free up..

Well, i had an idea of a Nat/tech team myself, well more a RPSG but hey, G.R.A.T.A.R.U. (Globle Rapid Assistance and Tactical Advance Research Unit.) which is a fictional company/group based worldwide trying to help where Hero's arn't fully there all the time, and where the army has been major defeated by the invasions.

Of Course this group ended up being used as a plotline for Battle-master and Curran Radburn, and had quite a few sotry posts on the boards here, however the group itself in game didn't take off and only had Curran Radburn in the SG and Battle-master was meant to be there also.

Now, i still have this group stored up, but since i have far to much else on, with other characters and such, it's just sitting there slowing gathering dust, so if you wished to attempt it, i may have a few pre made characters to go along with it.

ah i see, AOHell he has.. no wonder for delays then..

(yes, as you can tell i completely hate AOL, hinted by it's nickname AOHell.)

ok, anything happening on this? as it seems to of died off a little.
Either way, im going to be posting up shortly a IC story of "Sha'dower"'s return, so that he is back into the world of paragon city. So look out, because now even the shadows have eyes..

((two PPD cops in Galaxy city department building))

PPD 1: Hey look theres another one!

PPD 2: Your right, that makes four now.

PPD 1: Yeah, guess who ever keeps leaving these black roses around must be behind the raids on these places.

PPD 2: I don't think so, I mean look around all those guys that are beat up, the marks look familar to me.

PPD 1: You want?

PPD 2: I think he's back again.. these must be the guys that are connected to the stolen airship report from O'BrainTech.

PPD 1: Could be, but doesn't that mean?

PPD 2: Yeah it does..

Sha'dower has a Wiki page already, it is somewhat how needing a little updating but, is done in an IC way, and has he is no where to be found so to speak at the moment by normal means, he hasn't updated or filled in any new information on the page.

I should alos get around to putting his Company on the wiki too, but due to the amount of time i have had of late, i am unable to get around to it, but hopefully i should do it soonish.

Any news coming soon, just wondering as it has been almost, if not more, than a week since I saw any new posts on this one.

After reading this post, i must say i have to agree with both sides, and disagree.. but the fact this that if an event was to happen on this plot, my characters ( well some not all of them) would react to it, as i theat the game world as an alternate earth, the point of i have two characters with their own campanies based either worldwide, or in England, and that there is one character whoes Group has been around since well the dawn of magic, who are in the process of hovering their base back to England.

Yes, i am aware that most of my characters are English, because that is where i am, so it is the easyist thing for me to do. Other than that they are their own people as such, RPed differently and would in due course react differently to events that would unfold in the game world.

Now, tell me if im wrong or have jumped in at a bad time BUT if you can't deal with the game world and the whole missing back story bits, the "what is going on elsewhere on earth?" bits, and the stepping on others toes then, i would have to Agree with Hatesman, and the points made in his post. That is all.

This should be the only time i will post here, unless i need to reply to posting about this post.

I will be today getting Sha'dowers new costume ready, and should be back playing him soonish as a result, althrough not quite at the normal GG meeting, as i have another person there now.

Once thats done, he'll be ready for his join up bit, just shout be via the forums or in game on @Drade. If you still want him to be part of The Nomads.

I am perfectly happy for any edits to happen, to either of the stories i have done, i am aware that there are quite a lot of typoes and mis spellings in them, but i am due to my present RL commitments of work and such unable to fix the pages myself. I do try to prove read each bit as i go, but when your writing them up quickly on these boards before entering into the game, it can be a bit quick glance, "ah it looks ok.." thing. which isn't the best thing for me to do..

Anyway i added in the spoiler notices on the OOC bit at the start of Sha'dower/Shade's of Grey. And feedback in always welcome, in any form, it's being quite some time since i did story writing so you may see an improvement as time goes on.

((ok, since it turned out no-one what so ever was bother by this plot, i shall use my backup plan story in order to sort out the plot.

I am fully aware that the two plots so far i have ran, have both ended with some sort of destruction, or big event.. this is due to the whole flim/comic book thing i was trying to do, which seems those here arne't overly happy, or interested in, since its like maybe a normal thing in the city for said events to happen due to the fact of what the city is, City of Heroes.
Anyway, here is the last ish part of the Battle-master plotline: A future's past. hopefully it should be enjoyable.))

Battle-Master plotline: A future's Past: Our solemn hour.

Atlas city, city hall. 15th of jan 2008, time: 8:50 pm.


Curran hurried along the path along side the city hall, from the monorail station, his raptor pack had cut out suddenly and without warning above the path a moment before, and was now laying broken on the ground behind him as he walked off.
"Darn machine, never did work after Unit got it's robotic hands on it." Curran muttered frowning as he held on tightly to a CD rom disc in his hand, a hero ran past him stopping just for a moment to look at the pack before running off again.
Curran slowly walked up the steps to the dorrs, standing there was one of his guards, as well as the City rep for G.R.A.T.A.R.U. wearing his suit and holding onto a brown bag.
"Sir, everthing is ready upstaires for you, the system link up post is active." Said the Rep, looking to his somewhat annoyed boss.
"Good, now go make sure noone come to the room while im there.. i don't want to be stopped, understand?" Curran muttered to him, before pushing past him and walking inside.
"Of Course.. Curran.." he said looking to the guard, ".. i'll inform Andrew, you try to buy us some time."
The Guard nodded and ran off down the steps,and picking up a nearby waiting raptor pack, before flying off.

Room 24a, City hall.

Curran opened the door of the room with an almighty bang, looking around quickly before closing it behind him, there in the room was a computer station, monitors and a map of Paragon city. Curran hurried to the computer, and poped the disc into the driver, up on the monitors came the Grataru logo, followed by the tiles and then the countdown, with read "5 minutes: 24 secounds.", to which Curran smiled and chunkled to himself.
"finally, the whole thing is coming to a head, those idiots don't even know about, this time i win."

Slowly something moved in the far corner of the room, before a black throwing dagger flew out and stuck Currans face, but the only damage was his sunglasses being knocked off, and his face cut to his nose on his right side.
"AH! what in the world!" Screamed curran turning holding his face in an attempt to stem the bleeding from the cut.
"Thats what you get for having me beat up, and trying to kill andrew." Said a voice from the darken corner.
"Who.. what are you?" Curran asked before relising that he was the only one who was there, ".. wait.. it's not important.. you can't stop me.."
Curran quickly tapped in the commands into the keyboard, with his free hand, making sure they were right before pressing enter.

G.R.A.T.A.R.U. Tower, Andrews cell, time: 7:55pm

Meanwhile in Andrews cell, the door flung open, and stepped in was Simmons, Wendy and Fred, followed by two Guards.
"Andrew!" Shouted Wendy, running over to him, as he was laying on the floor, just about breathing.
"Andy, buddy... wake up, don't you go dieing on us now... you hear me." Said Simmons, also running over to help Wendy.
"He's alive.. just.. Curran must of done this beore he headed to the control room, you two.. get the med teams down here now! Shouted Wendy, moving Andrew into the recover position, the Gurads both nodded and called over the radios for medical assistance, before standing outside the door.
"He's going to be ok isn't he?" Asked Fred, looking worried, he knew that he had some part in what had happend.
"He will be.. he's a fighter.. and real hero.. only someone like that could of withstood Currans anger for this long and still be alive at the end of it." Replied Wendy smiling carefully to Fred, before looking back at Andrew.
"Right.. i just hope our friends have luck at the control stopping Curran before it's too late." Said Fred, standing up and waving over the med team.
"Me too." Said Simmons looking over at the monitor screen on the wall, " it's up to them now.."

Room 24a, City hall, Time: 8: 58 pm.

Curran looked up as yet another black throwing dagger shot past his arm, bouncing just of his armour and stabbing itself into the wall.
" Nice throw, dimwit.. thats not going to stop me, less than two mins to the new era." Said Curran as the door suddenly flew open, Standing there was Doctor Devass Vector, holding his modifiled laser gun.
"Vou, Zir.. can't not be allowed to do Zhiz.." Devass said pointing his gun towards Curran.
"YOU! your the one who was leading those bots against the tower.. your the one who should think again!" Shouted Carrun holding out his hand, it glowed with the firey green glow of his powers.
"I do Zhiz for Unit, he azk for my help.. and i gave it!" Repiled Devass lowering his weapon, and pointing to the monitor.
On which was the computer model face of Unit, made up from zores and ones, slowly unit voice came over from the speakers of the computer, has the count dwon hit 30 secounds left.
"Curran, you must not be allowed to active the said event, i was sent back to stop it, to save this world, and now i complete my mission, by stopping you, and saving the future which you made, from coming to light."
As unit's voice echoed over the room, the mointors filled with the codes and override nuumbers, unit was halting and closing down the reactors for the sheild projector network which was to cover the city. The first one to go down was over Galaxy, then Atlas, then it spead out from them, like the virus that the override program was, slowly the projectors shut down and turned off, the energy grid which contected them to each other was re routed to feed the end into a storage batteies dotted around the city.

Peregine Island, time : 8:59 pm.

The Hunters Guild Grandhalls, hovered up a little as the energy for the Great sword was just about to be unleased, the glow was bright, the sky althrough nighttime was almost as bright as day, the clouds of the storm which whipped around the crystals under the halls, which made the blade of the Great Sword, while the tower abover seems to glow eirely aswell, the moment had come, yet below the Sheild projector had just actived and the sheild was there, it's bluey glow was the oppersite to that of the green white glow of the Great Sword.
Suddenly the air filled with static energy and the humming was so louded it could be heard for miles.
"It is time, we drive the sword's energy in to deliver the final blow, and end this war." Said Master Dark, as he nodded to the other Council members, as they dropped their hands, outside the glow from the tower started to fall down towards the crystal blade, and shoot forth from it.

Just in time, the sheild from the projector cut out and the small isle was hit, yet seem to take no damage, as the shockwave spread out in a ripple in all directions, it true power was unseen to thoses without magic, but to those on the isle, the Cultists, they just vanished, turning to dust, their tunnels crumbled and fell, everthing they had was destoryed everything that they had built, had controlled was gone.
It was almost as if they had been deleted from there, nothing remained of them, at least nothing which was there are the upper layers, far down in the earth in a hidden lair was Searess Deagcen, and a few of the more loyal cultists, in a safe heaven away from the main base they had mostly surlived the blast from the Great sword unknown to the Guild, and all Searess Daegcen did was grin evily then laugh evily, the war wasn't over the Guild hadn't of won.

"Those fools think they have won? Idiots, don't they know.. that when one evil is removed, another stronger evil takes it place."
