Good stuff, I'm quite liking the earth/therm She's got great description potential and the sets are quite enjoyable and ones i've never played so i'll stick with the therm. though maybe change to.

Is there any confirmation on what times we're potentially going to regularly meet up?

If there's still room i'd be interested in this ^-^ I'd bring a scrapper, if that's ok?

Sure, if I'm around. Might be gone tomorrow during the day, in which case I'll catch up when I return. Otherwise I could meet tomorrow evening in Atlas if you're about.

Guy De Flambe is the name.

Finally I am at the office again. Funny thing is my home computer way too much better than my office one but this one seems get along better with forums (it doesn't run CoH tho').

I gathered data posted so far and here we have those players interested:
1- False Fiction
2- Knightly
3- Xemulas
4- Kindeller
5- Cynic
6- Carnifax
7- Uther Dracus
8- Sapphic Neko
9- Heyman
10- TRT
11- Herczeg
12- Steel Dancer

So far so good. We can start with two 6 men team. As we still have couple of days ahead to Monday it can be more i hope. Also if you ask my personal opinion 6 men team is fine, we can fill with online players and present a solution to people who have hard time finding teams.

Two teams means we need some basic ATs in pairs. So far we have one tanker. I already saved couple of character ideas as costumes so i can be second tank with my flesh golem, second scrapper with my vampire rogue, another controller/healer with my Mind/FF or Mind/Empath. If everyone can post(undecided ones) we can decide teams' line up.

I think so far we have:
1- False Fiction: TBA
2- Knightly: Versatile
3- Xemulas: Controller (Buffer/Debuffer)
4- Kindeller: Controller(Healer)
5- Cynic: Defender (Debuffer)
6- Carnifax: Tanker
7- Uther Dracus: Blaster
8- Sapphic Neko: TBA
9- Heyman: TBA
10- TRT: TBA
11- Herczeg: TBA
12- Steel Dancer: Scrapper

By the way, False when you hit level 10 you can start SG so we better decide the name of the SG. Throw in your suggestions, ladies and gentlemen.

Thanks everyone for interest. We still have space so if you want to join this Medieval madness you are very welcome.

Highest Regards,

Knightly

well i thought about running a blaster this time, but i'm just as happy with a rad or a cold defender.
though you know that in the end i'm a tank at heart, so i can run the 2nd tank if no one else. this case it would be an ice or stone not sure yet...


 

Posted

My little demon says you should go for a Rad or Cold defender.

Seriously, all things you said is fine. Let's wait for others' responses so we can decide what to roll. I really liked how my heroes look so if i can't get two others in for this teams i can roll them and join the SG and solo with them.

6 man sounds nice, especially if we could get some new people in Atlas to join, a bit of a subversion of Heymans post in New Players. If anything is going to convince a new person to stick about it's a decent, chatty team running stories properly.

My Tank is made and standing in Atlas as we speak. He's a reroll of a Union Tank so no need for me to try out my sets, I've already played them through the single digits anyway.

Might end up rerolling purely to tweak the cossie though, I'm not that gone on the medieval armour so far. Went with a fairly normal shield. The Fire Shield is rubbish looking. If anyones got ideas for medieval armoured types send me a link to the pics.

Go for demonic look ^_^

Half-demon with fire attacks and maybe with dark shield probably look cool. Don't know which boosters you have but you can be another version of my Infernal Justice half demon hero.

Face: Reptilian, spikey or swift hair, pale blue (this can be shade of red or orange in your case) skin, demon ears
Upper Body: Reptilian, monterous claws or wristbands or tied/wrapped hands, valkyrie belt or simply chain (one with the cloth)
Lower Body: Choose which ever you desire (Medieval, rough leather, armor plates, valkyrie), valkyrie boots or folded boots with rough leather/matte texture. (mine is wearing stealth with black/bright red coloring tho')
Back Detial: bat wings (after 20 you can change them with Dragon or burned ones for flying outside missions, like increasing your wing mass for preaparing to fly)

Hey chaps. I've been really busy with college work, that's why I haven't checked the forums lately.

Mondays are a fine day to me too. Seeing everyone is leaning towards Medieval theme, seems like a good idea to start with that one and see how it goes. This topic will stay active should other players and teams eventually come up.

As for the SG name, I really can't come up with anything yet. Cheap names cross my mind such as 'Time Travellers' or 'The Contemporaneous'. None of them amaze me tho.

Regarding my toon, I'll most likely be playing a shield Scrapper but I might consider a support toon aswell. Will think about it for the next few days.

EDIT:
Is it set that Medieval origins will be magic and mutation? I don't know much about medieval history but for the best of my knowledge the greatest minds and science/tecnology genius lived in that period (Galileo, Copernicus and da Vinci just to name a few).

I know I'm nitpicking, just wanted to be sure

Don't forget Natural. Lots of natural broadsword & mace wielders in those times

It'd be possible to do Tech or Science origin, but it'd be arachic technology. Maybe something like a Fire blaster Alchemist who's powers are actually him throwing Greek Fire about. And I'd be 50/50 stuck between calling them Tech and Natural (in the same way a sword wielder or a bowman is a Natural since assumedly the Alchemist would have to train well in order how to control and wield the sticky fiery stuff without immolating himself or his teamies).

Yep, that's my point Carni. I guess it's ok to go with Tech/Scientist if it fits on character's concept.

Absolutely, it'd be a tighter fit but a good concept could do it.

We could call ourselves The Time Bandits

Being 3 foot tall would be optional

Slightly more seriously there was an obscure 80s PnP Roleplaying Game set in the middle ages called Maelstrom, basically 16th Century (no reason it couldn't be earlier though) with hidden witches and wizards. The Maelstrom itself could be used as a McGuffin explaining how we ended up in the 21st century.

i made a techno origin blaster with trenchcoat, and medieval armor under it and wolfie head with lotsa teeth and big ears. his weapon of choice is assault rifle, and i made him half-crazy cos i'm not comfortable with sane characters when i rp. and he would've gone on and on about how he likes 21st century's killin machines and how it'd would have rock back in the fourteens (as fourteenhundred)

but i gues i'll go with either the tank or with the defender so he won't happen. i dont have the theme for them yet, cos i have all these cool ideas but none of them is medieval, but i'm sure i'll think up something around 18:30 monday.

I also see Vampires, Golems, Fairies (elves, nixies, goblins), giants, dragons, werewolves, ancient gods or demons in concept with medieval setting, also their half breed off-springs.

Name is really hard thing to find, i keep changing my SG name untill i come up with something i like. As we are going time traveling group of indivudals i think "Eternal Guardians of Justice" works well.

If i have to put things in a background story: Let's say everything started with a knight (good example of Medieval heroes)... named Sir. Evenhand. One day our good Sir fell into a whirling pool of water whie figthing a cabal of evil witches/mages. He lost his conciousness and wake up into a strange place, where metal shapeless creatures flying in the sky and men riding that loudy creatures. After series of adventures our hero find his back to his correct time line. During his time shifting adventures he met various people in different shapes and times. Only thing is common between those is their sense of justice, compassion for humanity and their faith in goodness. He decides to gather those good hearted people and protect what they believe; Goodness, Justice and Humanity. Then "Knightly Order of Eternity" born. Even they are too many in numbers few decided to stay in Paragon City and protect earth from alien invaders, demon worshiping mages and many other forms of evilness.

I don't think rifle could fit in medieval age, mate. You can save that one for futuristic team tho.

As for medieval, I'm sure something will cross your mind. Sorcerers, alchemists, priests, forseers, knights, barbarians, giants, orcs, elves, etc etc.

EDIT:

Hehe, Knightly is on fyah.

but...but... he has chainmail on and he calls the girls wenches! how can he be more medieval? i cant see if a knight can use a train (oh, now you tell me you wont use the trains?) why cant use a rifle. its not that complicated.
but that's just me complaining. i already said i wont play him. i'll roll a defender or a tank, dependeing on which AT are we short on...

lame.
how about leftovers? you know.. left over the centuries...
okay this one is lame too...

Maybe it will looks like out of concept with current medieval theme but in tune with general idea of the team. If you like your toon too much Herczeg, i say save it for now. If we will have some other non-medieval toons (like prehistoric and futuristic ones like yours) we can make it a mixed team and it will repersenets idea of SG better.

Also i liked your pick, if i have to fall back to healer role you can assume your hide is safe.

Well I'm blaming Cynics Sorceress for whisking me into the 21st Century anyway, just so I can constantly harp on at him

"Let me just try this ritual you said. What's the worst thing that could happen you said. Now look at me, clanking around with oddly dressed peasants shouting 'Hey, where's the fancy dress party at, Sir Mixalot?' I don't even know who this knight they keep referring to is. Perhaps I should track him down and pledge my allegience. He must be a brave and fierce warrior."

Hey show some respect to the wenches. You know i already rolled a toon named "Leeching Wench" for evil version of Flying Circus. (I know it is still too far ahead but i didn't want my beautiful name to be taken)
