Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXV: The Future (Imperfect) is...Soon
*Bumps into thread*
*Rubs head ruefully, and proceeds to disrupt normal conversation*
FUTURE IMPERFECT!? WHERE!?
ooooh, it's just the thread name...
carry on.
*wanders off to make some random and unrelated comic*
EDIT: Actually, question: is there a running list of the people planning on being in FI? I like squak's idea of starting on character templates. (note that I've been meaning to join for a long time, and was told sometime in the spring that FI would be starting soon and that I should wait until then.)Last edited by Khaeta; 2009-08-08 at 11:27 AM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXV: The Future (Imperfect) is...Soon
Holy carbs. I guess Im behid schedule then. I think I will just make my templates as I include them in my comics. Just as I always did. I have no idea anyway how most of the people look. I remember Q has a badass loncoat now and Igon seems to be shapeshifting constantly, as MM cant decide on what to make him look like. Why doesnt Lying take care of that himself anyway? And I know what standard peacekeepers look like. But that's it.

Why mad Mask? He isn't in charge! I could supply the templates for my FI characters, if you wish.
In fact, here they are.

You have four characters (not including pets)? How many of them would be able to be killed off? FI is supposed to be an Anyone Can Die plotline, IIRC.
At last count, I have seven characters planned out, almost all of which are expendable.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXV: The Future (Imperfect) is...Soon
Actually, any of them can die. In fact, all of them WILL die.
Of course, I want them to last in the story, though. I don't want them to all to die in the first chapter of the story. I don't want them to have bridges dropped on them. I think that's a pretty reasonable request.Last edited by Green-Shirt Q; 2009-08-08 at 04:20 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXV: The Future (Imperfect) is...Soon
I intend for Igon to survive, I see him as almost a piece of the landscape of Avbaroy, reflecting on a metaphorical level how the world is reacting to what's happening in the present day.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXV: The Future (Imperfect) is...Soon
(Attempts to squeeze into the Future Imperfect line)
Spoiler
Norn St. Voluspa
(The picture is still preliminary, although I expect the end result to be somewhat similar. I might (and will likely) end up simplifying her clothing a bit and add details as appropriate, in addition to the obligatory blue hair.)
Norn St. Voluspa is, to those have come to know her, a simple medic and battle cleric working for the resistance movement. She's a specialist in divine magic - although this itself is shrouded in a cloud of mystery as she is Agnostic and rarely devout to a philosophical ideal. As she is an "escaped testing subject" from the UNA laboratories, this discrepancy is rarely noted, since most of her colleagues assume, by Occam's Razor, that her abilities are simply the result of random UNA testing.
In reality, Norn's divine powers result from a born metaphysical ability to, in essence, manipulate souls to fuel her own power. She can't force souls out of still-living bodies, of course, although she can and will often subconsciously strip an already dead soul in close proximity of its memories and experiences, leaving only a hollow shell of free will and jumbled intelligence for Nameless to reap. The soul must be allied or neutral to her prior to death for this to occur, so killing powerful enemies have no bearing to her own strength.
Her base divine spells do not consume souls per use; instead, merely having souls of certain power will grant Norn the ability to use a certain level of divine power (though it makes her weaker than clerics of her level). The souls can be directly used, however, to power small, specially crafted dolls with artificial life. These dolls gain a level of power proportional to the power of the original soul, so a doll created from a commoner might be fragile and only able to shoot simple projectiles, a doll created from a normal soldier might be able to lance and heal, and a doll created from a more powerful being are a significant threat. However, incarnum collected in this fashion suffer a risk of destruction once a doll is destroyed, so mostly, she surrounds herself with weaker soldier-dolls to provide combat support and aid her in healing wounded soldiers.
Either way, Norn is not a pure moon elf, as her appearance would suggest. Her racial abilities includes at will Polymorph Any Object (limited, nonliving to nonliving only), True Creation (very limited, can only create dolls), and the ability to restore one of her collected souls to life per three days. Because of these powers, her apparently methodical method of using divine magic, and her limited ability to tap into soul/incarnum energy, Norn was treated as a lab rat by the UNA during her childhood, which left her with a burning hatred of the top officials in the UNA. To this end, she allies herself with the resistance so that she could, with her own eyes, see the United Nations of Avbaroy burn in flames.
Norn is otherwise a kind person, and regards most of the leaders of the resistance as treasured comrades in arms for a common cause.Last edited by Felyndiira; 2009-08-08 at 10:58 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXV: The Future (Imperfect) is...Soon
Hmm...obviously this isn't going to be anything like FFF (in terms of joining, at least), so I suppose I'll have to actually come up with a backstory. Just as a basis, can I be some sort of vigilante/mercenary involved with the resistance?
(I'll be using this character, if I haven't said that yet)

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXV: The Future (Imperfect) is...Soon
If you want to have a mercenary the UNA is probably a more logical choice, since he'll have money and access to better weapons. Also, only people who are in the ALF are either insane, evil (or criminals), have connections to Igon Minoblendy or are patriotic fanatics. He'll have to have good reasons to be with them, since life in the Resistance is pretty crappy compared to that of your average UNA citizen.
