The "Get Violent" Video Game RPG OOC/Sign-up Thread

Hey hold on there, I need for Sam & Max to have a talk with Fox and then bust him out. Don't worry, I'll do the post earlier tomorrow :cwink:
Well Fox is busting himself out, so we can have that conversation, but I want Fox savin his own tail if its all the same to you.
 
sorry for the complete crap that my last post was. My computer wouldn't load the page so I couldn't change anything.

Will edit the page later.
 
Even though hes a *****e for doing it and his post needs deleting/editing, Purple Prancer wins this entire RPG.
 
Just spoke to Obi-John last night. He said that, if MB is serious about playing Mario, he'll post an app for Luigi.
 
Are they going to do the adapted thing? If they are, my suggestion is that they've been in New York for a while now so they can explain why they are different. We're getting a Smash Bros arc going.

Still waiting for your breakout, Fox.

I'd be willing to do it. Anyway, even if MB doesn't pick Mario, he said he'd still play as Luigi.
 
Mrko, I was waiting for Namesareuseless's post, but I am on a schedule. I will just Bunny his guys and get the breakout done. I am going on vacation for a week, so I don't really know if I can post for the next week.
 
Name of character and game that he/she/it appears in: Dr. Gordon Freeman from the Half Life series.

Powers/skills/inventory of the character: Gordon is just a man, no unique combat training or powers. BUT, he is an amazing natural leader (he becomes the leader of the whole Resistance without even speaking,) and with his HEV suit, a crowbar and a gun he can manage to kick some serious ass.

He also has very extensive knowledge of teleportation technologies, which no one in New York has.

Will your character be bringing any other characters, items from their game with them?: Gordon is going to have his HEV suit and the dark energy charged gravity gun (the inventory he had at the end of Half Life 2.) After being teleported to New York he will immediately find a crowbar, so I guess I'll just go ahead and add that to his inventory.
Three dropships full of Combine Overwatch Elite soldiers will also be sucked into the city.

Why have you chosen this character?: The Half Life series is one of my most favorite set of video games EVER, so Gordon Freeman is just my natural first choice.

Can you provide any need-to-know information about your character for players with no knowledge of that character? Gordon doesn't talk much. In fact, in the games he never speaks at all. He is known mostly for his heroism and ability to handle almost any situation presented to him despite the fact that his only specialized training was in the field of theoretical physics.

Also, for those of you who played the games, I decided to exclude Episodes 1 and 2. Gordon's adventures in New York will simply be picking up directly from the end of Half Life 2.

Please provide your sample "blackout" post if your character comes from a different time to the present setting: The Combine teleport had finally gone unstable after the last dark energy orb collided with it. Breen wasn't going to be making it out of the Citadel today. Gordon heard Alyx exiting the elevator behind him, just in time to see the murky view of the Combine homeworld that had appeared in the air evaporate. Breen's final pleas echoed across the open top of the Citadel, and his words continued to fall on Gordon's deaf ears, just as they had for the past few hours. Alyx was ecstatic for a moment and she turned to say something, but just as the words left her mouth the teleport erupted into a huge fireball...but it never reached them. Instead of expanding, the fireball stopped, Alyx froze, still shielding her eyes from the brilliance of the explosion. Time had simply stopped.

Then, that dreaded voice echoed through the frozen air. That man in the gray suit, Gordon's "employer," stepped out of the air again, just as he had done after the defeat of the Nihilanth, both saving and damning Gordon at the same time.

"Time, Dr. Freeman? Is it really that time again?" He said, appearing in the air just in front of Gordon...but something...jerked. Gordon's mysterious employer didn't seem to notice anything, but there was an indescribable feeling...as if Gordon's very existence was being tugged at, wrenched out of its place. The scene before him wavered and stretched as if it too were being tugged away, and suddenly a massive pull ripped Gordon's entire reality into nothingness. He floated for a moment, in darkness, and then everything came rushing back. His eyes adjusted for a moment and he noticed he was lying on his back in an alleyway, the G-Man's words still ringing in his ears and the Gravity Gun still in hand.

:wow: I loved it.
Approved my friend. Now get to posting!!!
 
Also, fixed my last post everyone........... kinda boring when no one else is in here. =[
 
Ok ok I did another Sam & Max post, so no need for you to "bunny up" the Freelance Police Syn :cwink:

And you Mr. Marko need to be patient and allow Syn the time he needs to have Fox to break out of prison :oldrazz:

Oh and Xn0o0cl3: Kerrigan knows plenty about Worm Holes and where they teleport (if they're Zerg-made), so Gordon isn't the ONLY one with teleportation knowledge! :ninja:
 
Names love your Sam & Max. So funny.

Hey UK would you mind if I picked up a third character. It'll be a bad ass villain.
 
I think the 3rd character thing could be cool. I'd pick up another character too if I could. I've got a character I would love to play!
 
BTW, I love the Sam and Max thing too. Sooooo funny. Are we going to have all our guys find out how they got there, and if there is some big thing that's pulling them all together?? Just curious. We could get something like that going.

Made myself a new banner for Red also.

If we let the three character thing fly, I want to reserve Captain Falcon.

Same. I've been planning things with Max Payne for weeks now :woot:
 
I guess we could do with some third characters, go ahead. :up:
 
Application

(No nonsense) Application for the "Get Violent" Video Game RPG

Name of character and game that he/she/it appears in:
Samus Aran, Metroid Series

Powers/skills/inventory of the character:
She is going to be wearing her classic Varia suit, and will be bringing her gunship, although initially I'm sure it will be damaged.

Will your character be bringing any other characters, items from their game with them?:
Some space pirates and Ridley are going to get sucked in with them.

Why have you chosen this character?:
It's frickin' Samus! Need I say more? I know I said I wanted Captain Falcon...but Samus is better. :woot:

Can you provide any need-to-know information about your character for players with no knowledge of that character?
Samus Aran is a bounty hunter who is constantly running into the Space Pirates. One time she saved a baby Metroid, then it saved her. She like long walks on the beach and blasting the hell out of evil aliens.

Please provide your sample "blackout" post if your character comes from a different time to the present setting:

Samus Aran stared out the front of her gunship. He wouldn't get away this time.

Ahead of her, a large space pirate vessel dodged asteroid after asteroid. "Come on, Ridley. You know me better than to try and out dodge me. What are you doing?"

She had just finished cracking down on another infestation of space pirates on a remote planet for the Galactic Federation, but Samus had decided to make it personal. She knew that Ridley needed to be killed.

The space pirate's ship fired round after round of plasma blasts at Aran's gunship, but nothing could shoot down Samus. She dodged the rounds effortlessly, then unleashed a large power shot from her own cannon towards the filthy pirate scum. The blast knocked the ship into a spiral toward a large asteroid.

"I've got you now, Ridley."


The ship spun into a large hole in the asteroid, and Samus sped her gunship forward. There was no way she was going to miss this. As she moved into the hole, something happened. Something Samus had not expected. Her gunship began to shake.

"What the hell?"


Bright, white light shone through the front of the gunship until it filled the entire cockpit. The last thing she could see before she blacked out was a blue and green planet.

********************************************

Samus woke up, dazed. She had crash landed, that much was certain. She quickly ran diagnostic on her suit. No damage, thank God. That always seemed to happen when she reached a new planet.

She checked the gunship's status. Only minor damage. The ship was designed to repair itself in such instances, so it would be up and running soon.

Normally, the gunship would have told her what planet she was on by now. The Galactic Federation had, as far as they could tell, mapped out nearly the entire universe. Some of it had not yet been explored, but they had mapped out everything. This time, however, the gunship blinked an error message.

Samus went to the door and stood in the small pod which carried her up to the top of the gunship and out into the new world she had discovered. She looked around at this strange world. All around her was stadium-style seating. Thousands of life-forms gathered around the spot where she had landed.

"Some sort of gladiator-type arena? I don't think that the Galactic Federation even know that humans live this far out here."

Samus turned around to see her projected onto a large TV screen. Underneath the screen, a blinking banner showed a message.

Go Yankees, go!

Samus turned back, looking at the mass of people who had nothing but the look of fear in their eyes. "Now how the hell are you going to get yourself out of this one, Samus?"
