<@AnE> Er.
<@AnE> Hi.
* Novella is now known as vile
* Blurb is now known as Ahriman
<Brad> Marvel comics/Mutant themed RP
<Novel> freeform or dice?
<@AnE> Freeform.
<Novel> tell me dice
<Novel> damn
<Novel> no dice?
<vile> not unless you want to use them
<@AnE> No, we rely on people not being shitty writers and having common sense.
<vile> ^
<@AnE> (neither work)
<Ahriman> ^
<vile> ^
<Novel> ok
<Novel> :L
<@AnE> Still foggin' a day later. :O
<@AnE> This pleases me
<vile> yay
<vile> next villain's powers: https://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.co ... o1_500.png
<@AnE> Also I have come to the conclusion that no, I can't accurately guess what'll win.
<@AnE> ¬_¬
<@AnE> Because today's shirt was totally not Ramy OR Walmazan.
<vile> (ramy's)
<@AnE> ...
<@AnE> HAHAHAHA
<@AnE> Joebob Smith
<@AnE> Codename: The Rapechair
<vile> lmao
<Novel> how do i get into chat?
<vile> his secondary power is sticking black people to random things: https://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.co ... o1_500.jpg
<@AnE> How do...
<@AnE> What?
<Ahriman> ಠ_ಠ
<vile> it's okay annie you're carlton you're safe
<Novel> -.-
<vile> only half of you would get stuck anyway
<vile> https://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.co ... o1_500.jpg D:
<@AnE> What are you asking, Novel?
<Brad> ANYWAY, yes, this is freeform. We just expect people to play fairly and not godmode, ignore actions, make unrealistic actions, etcetera. It takes a little getting used to, you may want to observe initially if you're interested.
<Novel> can i just jump in?
<Brad> You need to app a character first, all the info is on the website.
<Methiar> Need to submit a char / get approval
<Novel> ok ty
<@AnE> You don't actually have to be approved to play, you just can't play your character with their powers active until then. You can play as soon as you submit a sheet.
<vile> ^
<Brad> Right.
<@AnE> Also, Ramy got 5 prints in a row.
<@AnE> I'm disgusted.
<vile> ._.
<Brad> Annie
<Methiar> @.@ Annieeee.
<@AnE> THAT'S A WHOLE LOT OF MONEY FOR A GUY WHO'S TERRIBLE.
<Brad> If it makes you feel any better
<@AnE> What?
<Novel> how realistic is this?
<Brad> I bet he has like
<Brad> A tiny dick
<@AnE> Relatively realistic.
<Brad> Like more of a nipple than a dick
<Novel> Prefreably i'd like a heroes-esque game
<Brad> Define that
<@AnE> Please^
<vile> realistic, limited powers?
<vile> idk i never watched it ._.
<Brad> Oh wait, the show
<Brad> uhhh
<@AnE> I couldn't tell he was talking about the show. >:\
<Brad> I'd say it's... a lot less boring than Heroes
* @AnE dies.
<vile> lol
<Brad> As in, things actually happen
* vile stares at a clock
* vile stares at a clock
* vile stares at a clock
<Brad> Power level is probably higher than that, overall
<Brad> But it's not like, required that your character be more powerful than that
<vile> yeah. we run fight scenes...sometimes. i'm trying to do them more often now
<Brad> I'd say it's... definitely more superhero and action oriented than that
<Novel> but you don't have capes, batman never killing joker etc
<@AnE> No.
<Brad> No, but in general, murdering people is bad
<Novel> Damn thatr annoys me
<Novel> my prior comment
<vile> haha
<Methiar> @.@
* Methiar should play his new char
<Methiar> D: But Vile would kill me. I just know it >:C
<vile> they try to not kill people but sometimes it happens. generally if the villain is out to murder
<vile> i don't kill PCs unless i have consent so it'd be up to you
<vile> ...unless your character decides to hop off a building or punch the big bad's dick or something
<@AnE> Sometimes they punch brains into mush.
<@AnE> WE WERE JUST SUPPOSED TO BRING HIM IN.
<@AnE> >:C
<vile> lol
* vile is now known as vile|shower
<vile|shower> WORST HEROES EVER
* Angel`Pearson (Mibbit@m-97-143-211-51.hsd2.ct.comcast.net) has joined #CH*OOC
<Novel> so what s the setting?
<Brad> A sort of offshoot Marvel universe, the characters are based in Salem, Massachusetts
<@AnE> But it's fake Salem, which has been expanded and built out.
<Angel`Pearson> Oooooo newperson
<@AnE> maybe.
<@AnE> BACK, ANGEL.
<@AnE> OFF.
<@AnE> BACK.
* @AnE grabs a chair.
<Novel> so arev we known in the public eye?
* Angel`Pearson flinch!
<@AnE> By this point, yeah.
<@AnE> ¬_¬
<Novel> damn
<@AnE> Sort of.
<Novel> aren't tjer telepaths cfovering it upo?
<Brad> ...why?
<Brad> Everyone knows mutants exist
<Novel> ....
<Brad> Okay, what exactly are you looking for in a channel?
<Novel> and since there are mu
<Novel> a world where p
<Brad> That'd better help us gauge whether this is what you'd be interested in.
<Novel> eople with powers
<niccisleep>
<niccisleep> so devon asked me to make him french toast
<niccisleep> and i go to make him some
<Novel> keep a low profile and thier existence is a closelyguarded secret
<niccisleep> and he asks me "why is it called french toast mommy"
<niccisleep> im like i dunno
<niccisleep> "youre supposed to know, because you go to school"
<niccisleep>
<Brad> That's not really this channel, to be honest
<Novel> then what is it?
<Novel> enlighten me
<@AnE> Yeah, part of the idea is that since everyone KNOWS people with powers exist part of the struggle is getting on without being murdered and prosecuted.
<Novel> i can deal neverthekess
<Brad> It's a Marvel influenced superhero/mutant RP channel
<@AnE> persecuted.
<Ahriman> A lot of the information is on the site.
<@AnE> It adds more depth instead of playing hidey hole.
<Brad> Canon characters like the Avengers or the Fantastic Four do exist, though they're only referenced tangentially, not part of the actual game.
<Novel> can i fall in freom an alternate dimension
<Novel> ?
<Novel> e.gm this one?
<@AnE> o.0 No.
<Novel> but why not
<Novel> ?
<Novel>
<@AnE> Because that's not how we do it.
<Novel> ok then....
<@AnE> >Maintain a degree of realism
<Novel> it's just thqaat in marvel there are multiple dimesions
<@AnE> >Fall in from an alternate dimension
<@AnE> Yes.
<@AnE> We're operating on one dimension.
<@AnE> And alternate dimension stuff is reserved for plots.
<Brad> Yes.
<Novel> alright: how about i've been created, but due to mistakes all my "memories" are of a world with no powers, e.g this one
<Brad> Honestly, I don't think this is the setting that you're looking for.
<@AnE> Not from what you've pitched, no
<Novel> As i can teleport, (the rest of which i'll get to later)
<Brad> The setting is what it is, and characters should be created based on that, not based on something else.
<@AnE> That.^
<Novel> Well, it is marvel.
<Brad> It's our version of Marvel.
<Ahriman> No, it's based on Marvel.
<Ahriman> Doesn't mean we stick to it.
<Novel> ok
<Brad> Honestly, I just don't think this is what you're looking for, based on what you're presenting.
<Novel> Alright, how would you aply someone having no knowledge of powers?
<Brad> You really wouldn't.
<@AnE> You'd apply a mentally retarded person.
<Ahriman> Miles kinda did. But then he un-derped.
<Brad> That's what we're trying to say here. What you're asking us to put in play doesn't fit the setting.
<Novel> or someone with amnesia
<@AnE> Or someone who's deaf and blind.
<@AnE> Even if they had amnesia
<@AnE> The second they stepped out the door
<Novel> ok then!
<@AnE> They'd be like OH HEY LOOK
<Novel> exactly
<Novel> and thats where i';d be starting
<@AnE> Why, if I may ask?
<Novel> is there cloning?
<Novel> I prefer to play as close to myself in rpgs as possible
<vile|shower> oh dear
<Novel> I like the challenges it presents, as well as deciding on what i'd actually do in thyat situatuion
<vile|shower> self-insert
<Novel>
* @AnE facerubs.
<Novel> :L
* vile|shower is now known as vile
<Novel> so?
<@AnE> Why do you want to know about cloning? O_o
<vile> amnesia is a bit overdone so probably not
<@AnE> And yes, amnesia is SO CLICHE
<@AnE> SO CLICHE.
<Novel> someone trying to make tthier own little army
<Novel> or testying making powers
<Novel> and they get me
<@AnE> Let me make a few things clear.
<vile> THANKS HOLTZ FOR MAKING ME FEEL STUPID FOR NICK HAVING WARRANTED AMNESIA
<vile> i feel shame
<@AnE> 1.) Self-insert characters will not fly here because we have a clear IC/OOC separation.
<Ahriman> As you should, vile
<vile> ^
<vile> >:(
<Ahriman> But that's a different matter.
<Novel> Why?
<@AnE> 2.) Making a super complex character with a ridiculous backstory for your first character will not go well.
<Novel> why not play as yourslef?
<vile> because the channel isn't "safe" for PCs. they get injured and, rarely, killed. and the last thing we want is the mess that happens with no IC/OOC distinction
<@AnE> Why? Because this isn't a bunch of people sitting around a board rolling dice and taking down numbers. The entire thing is character driven, which cannot happen without a character.
<Ahriman> Why come into a fantasy setting just to play yourself?
<vile> you can avoid shenanigans or have a character that flees from battle but meh
<Ahriman> Why not go for a walk if that's what you wanna do?
<Novel> because it's a fantasy setting
<vile> ^
<vile> this may be the game for you, man: http://nabeel.typepad.com/photos/uncate ... 776685.jpg
<@AnE> Nobody is going to argue that it's okay to play a character with a similar personality, like/dislikes, but 'I WANNA PLAY MYSELF AS A MUTANT LOL' seems like something better reserved for an MMO.
<Novel> i mean, when you imagine superpowers, do you imaghine someone else having them or yourself.
<Tanith> Hi Annie, Brad
<Brad> Hello
<@AnE> Hey Tani.
<Novel> why?
<@AnE> Uhh
<@AnE> As I said
<Novel> I mean, it can work easily
<@AnE> Character-driven
<@AnE> Characters, not us.
<niccisleep> Then go to the playground, meet up with the other kids playing make believe on the playground, and pretend to be Superman with them, Novel.
<Novel> wow
<vile> ...because if you're going to rp as yourself...that takes away from the whole 'fantasy' aspect
<@AnE> Nobody here, to my knowledge, is playing themselves with fire breath.
<niccisleep> They're roleplaying characters here, not themselves.
<vile> I AM TOTALLY PLAYING AS MYSELF, ANNIE
<niccisleep> I WANT TO BE BATGIRL
<Brad> All of my characters have ASPECTS of myself, but none of them are ME, WITH POWERS
<Ahriman> So that's where Nick gets all the douche from..
<vile> i am really a drug and alcohol addled jackass who's power is to get repeatedly murdered and come back as a crotchety bastard
<@AnE> Well yeah.
<@AnE> ¬_¬
<vile> lol ahri
<Ahriman> n.n
<niccisleep> When I play Addison, its me with a cock.
* niccisleep nods.
<vile> lol
<@AnE> The more she dies, the crotchettier she gets.
<vile> ^
<vile> and the crazier. i also have severe amnesia
<niccisleep> You also smell bad.
<Ahriman> Very bad.
<@AnE> Flies avoid you.
<vile> i'm also a giant gay cowboy who rarely talks and freaks people out
<vile> ii do
<vile> ...
<Ahriman> They're all like "Gross, no."
<vile> that's why my nick is vile, obviously
<@AnE> ...Demi's gay? ):
<Novel> What i'm nvisioning is basically startting with my7self.... but then what i do is dictated from how i was a t that moment., It's like polaying your 16 yeare old self charater at 60
<@AnE> that's so sad.
* niccisleep Addison leers at Demi from afar.
<Novel> it's yoiu, but it nots who you are now
<vile> lmao
<niccisleep> Brokeback Mountain? LETS DO THIS
* Eva`zZ (Eva@v-64-230-89-21.hsd8.in.comcast.net) has joined #CH*OOC
<vile> aahaah
<Brad> Addison's gay now?
<vile> yes
* Tanith gets the camera
<@AnE> That's so sad.
<vile> EVERYONE HAS THE GAY
<vile> NICK TOO
<niccisleep> ROFL
<@AnE> 6Lexis perks
<niccisleep> no
<Brad> Ted's gay.
<niccisleep> he isnt.
<Novel> aside from me
<Ahriman> Angel's already here, guys. No need to go on and on about dicks.
<@AnE> Oh, right.
<vile> ALL THE BITCHES WANT HIS DICK. POOR TED
<Angel`Pearson> game needs moar gay
<vile> lol ahri
<niccisleep> But I tease Jenn with it sometimes that one day Chakei will come home to find him rumphumping some beefy gay guy.
<Angel`Pearson> lol
<@AnE> Uhhh
<Brad> Please
<Novel> Can you tell me what prolblems you hjave hgad with no distinction?
<Brad> He's gonna be rumphumping his chimaera.
<vile> that would be demi, nicci
<vile> lmao
* niccisleep dies.
<@AnE> We haven't had it.
<@AnE> NOBODY HAS TRIED TO PLAY THEMSELVES.
<Brad> Because we don't allow it.
<vile> YES THEY HAVE
<Novel> i mean in the past
<@AnE> BECAUSE IN A GAME LIKE THIS IT IS SILLY.
<vile> WE HAVE AND YOU CAN ALWAYS TELL BECAUSE EXTREME BUTTHURT
<Novel> in your gaming careers
<@AnE> Oh, we have?
<vile> also swarming with PMs over crying
<vile> yes
<@AnE> Oh.
<@AnE> I must have missed it.
<Ahriman> You mean like Jello Guy?
<@AnE> LOL
<vile> i've played around those people enough to spot them D:
<Novel> What happened?
<@AnE> I wasn't aware!
<Brad> Okay yes, in gaming careers? People that play themselves in RP, 100% of the time, are crybabies that take what happens in character as a personal affront.
<@AnE> ^^^^^^^
<@AnE> ^^^^^^^

<vile> ...because if you're going to rp as yourself...that takes away from the whole 'fantasy' aspect
<@AnE> Nobody here, to my knowledge, is playing themselves with fire breath.
<niccisleep> They're roleplaying characters here, not themselves.
<vile> I AM TOTALLY PLAYING AS MYSELF, ANNIE
<niccisleep> I WANT TO BE BATGIRL
<Brad> All of my characters have ASPECTS of myself, but none of them are ME, WITH POWERS
