Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
Alright then. Just posted on the Nexus OOC that we're making a Nexus Webcomic.
Alright, so does anyone have ideas on how the first strip will go? Should we have an intrudctory one explaining the Nexus?

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
Guys, we have to put the orginization AMEN in it. We've just been requested on the Nexus OOC thread to do so
AMEN is apparently the most evil group in the whole Nexus.

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
We want all information we can get our hands on...
By the way... Maxios you should make a list (with information please... faction... bio... whatever) of players that want their characters to make a guest appearance. I think we can handle guest appearances.
Meanwhile:

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
Nice comic.
Well, to help out, here's a brief history of AMEN, written by one of its best and oldest members, Lord Magtok.
A BRIEF HISTORY by the esteemed Lord Magtok
SpoilerIn the darkest pits of despair there lived a fearsome being, one made of pure malevolence, hatred, and madness. He had an equally dark and loathsome plan for our world, the formation of an organization to be known as Evil Incorporated, destined to spread his unhallowed name throughout the world, so that all might come to know and fear the one named Psyke_D.
Fortunately for the rest of us, there's already a webcomic called Evil Inc. When this was pointed out by yours truly, the members of this fledgling new organization went into a frenzy. What good could an evil organization be without a suitably original, stylish, and menacing name? All sorts of suggestions were produced, everything from Vilecom (painfully bland) to Fullbladder's Fabulous Funky Foursome (Totally incorrect, as there was at least six of us by then).
Finally, someone (and by someone I mean me) offered a suggestion even better than Evil Inc, the "Association of the Malicious, Evil, and Nefarious". Everyone immediately realized that this was by far the best name they'd ever heard of, and after a chorus of "AMEN, brother"s and nibbling on some pixies, the Association had officially begun.
Years went by after that. In-jokes were formed, members came and went, and dictators were ousted and replaced with new dictators more swiftly than Central America during the Cold War on steroids. It was a glorious time, full of wars with EVIL, The Town, France, and HALO. (All ending in AMEN victories, aside from the last one, which was more of a cease-fire stalemate thingy)
Lives were lost, promptly restored, and then lost again. Love blossomed between various Associates, dark feuds between others, and every manner of nonsense imaginable, but that chaotic energy, that "Burn it all and let the gods sort it out" attitude always came before anything else.
Sadly, these days were destined to end eventually. AMEN just couldn't keep up with HALO, GLoG, and the rest of the world, and xenophobically shut its doors upon the rest of the world. A Dark Age ensued, full of newbs posting inane nonsense and old members complaining about the newbs instead of trying to better their situation, until eventually, not even the newbs were posting anymore.
Then came hope. Most called him crazy (and they were right), others called him ridiculously optimistic, and some say he's a big smelly dragon who doesn't bathe anywhere near as much as he should (Or maybe only I say that), but everyone else called him Gordon, the new leader of AMEN. Realizing that this xenophobic age had to end, he led AMEN out of the darkness, and brought about a new age of darkness, gave us a world where AMEN is once again a serious threat. For that, we owe him our thanks. I'm still gonna stab him in the back the first chance I get, though.Avatar by Emperor Ing

The Digest may be of interest to you. It's the closest thing we have to a history book on the whole place.

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
I'm not familiar with the Nexus concept. But from what I get... well.. Nexus is like a place.
I need information on:
1) What does exist inside the Nexus, I'm talking locations (please don't say "anything we want :D". I need a resumed concrete information on what the players have created so far).
2) What factions exists inside the Nexus? What are their connection to each other? Territory?
3) Major recent events inside the Nexus.
4) Current political situation and other relevant informations would be appreciate.
EDIT:
DAMN! THERE IS A Menthos there! And that guy have the SAME bloody umbrella I have! DAMN!

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
Okay then, I'll do my best.
1. AMEN's base, located inside a volcano, HALO in an underwater base, GLoG at a campsite by a lake in the forest, WATCHTOWER by a waterfall in the mountains, and the city of Inside, located by a bay, and NO under a mountain up north.
2. AMEN is the evil group, wanting to control the city and the rest of nexus. GLoG desires to redeem people but is weak right now. HALO rarely interacts with anyone other than themselves. WATCHTOWER is the group that wants to destroy threats, and is closely tried to the city. NO is a group of mercenaries, working for the higher bidder, but have a no assissation policy.
The city of Inside controls the largest amount of land, and just tries to keep what it has.
3. Sorry, can't help much here, other than AMEN getting hit hard by the city's strike team, but they have fixed themselves up by now.
4. AMEN is planning on taking the city, but had a bit of a civil war over being too evil. All groups other than NO despise AMEN. WATCHTOWER and the city have a secret alliance.Avatar by Emperor Ing

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
This nexus comic sounds like a fun idea, I might help if I can.
I know about as much about it as MethosH do, though.
I tried to join at one point but I realised a couple of things
1. TOWN has a lot of frequent posting
2. Most of them are Americans
3. ???
4.ProfitNo fun
Know anywhere in there that has a slower post-rate, Phantom?Treasured Quotes

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
Time zones, Random, time zones.
Not everyone can conform to America's crazy backwards time schedule.
I'm sure Keveak wasn't insulting America, or Americans.
However, if we're going to start doing that, I do have a list of complaints...

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
I recall him saying he lives in Denmark...? AKA a good many time zones away even by EST standards. Yes, I can see how that'd be a major problem. But from what i've seen there's two groups of major concentrations of posters during different times of day. For you, I THINK they're around your late evenings and early mornings.

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
1. Okay, I'll go try to make the list right now.
2. Alright. Anyway, that's pretty good.
Okay guys, so the starting plot is that there's this programmer, and he's angered AMEN and some other groups, and is forced to flee. He hires a ninja with a energy sword, and a Laser Samurai to protect him from AMEN's attacks. They'll be mostly traveling the Nexus, and may encounter HALO or GLOG. That's all we've planned out so far.

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
Always keep this list updated, we will need it when the guest character start to appear ^_^
Anyway... For the first comic I was thinking that the programmer guy could be on his computer doing his thing and after a while he screams something like "I did it!" (we don't need to explain now the mathematical implications of what he did) and look at his own computer with happiness. After that a message appear on his computer saying "I saw what you did. You have 30 seconds. Run." he gets confused and a group of swat-like soldiers storm his house.

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
How about the programmer was downloading files from AMEN, top secret files. Then AMEN finds out, and sends their soldiers in (along with some player characters from the list).
Can someone tell us what AMEN wears in combat and uses as a weapon?

Re: Our Comic Lab in the Playground: An experimentation class
It's different for each PC. AMEN does have a bunch of henchmen though and their specs are detailed in the OP of AMEN itself. But they're pretty atypical. Shapeshifting gun arms and all that.
Gordon's a dragon. He uses that when it comes to battle. Moff is a fan of knives and is generally unarmored/regular clothes. Ilpholin uses a whip and a catsuit.
Edit: Actually it's not very detailed at all. I'll let Phantom or someone else tell you.Last edited by Reinholdt; 2010-09-28 at 11:08 AM.
