Title: worst of both worlds
Cleric - July 19, 2004 02:54 AM (GMT)
ok, here's the deal, we are starting, i'm going to do it slightly differently from the average rpg though. Instead of being on one world, i intend for this rp to be in a series of campaigns, which all of our characters happen to appear in. We start on the wookie homeworld first, good luck and have fun.
Cleric - July 20, 2004 09:21 PM (GMT)
sorry to double post, but...
Does anyone have any questions about the Predator society, the Xenomorph, Star Wars or Earth at this point in time in the rpg? If so, Jay and i can both answer about the predator, I know alot about the xenomorph, and Diane is quite the star wars buff
DarkDestiny - July 23, 2004 01:06 AM (GMT)
Diane are the creatures chasing you aliens? Because you said they talked intelligently to each other but they don't really talk.. they screech at each other. Their "talking" would not seem intelligent. Also.. Tom I know they have acid blood but not their drool right?
Cleric - July 23, 2004 02:45 AM (GMT)
no, though i think in times of need they can bite themselves and spit it, because an alien did spit acid at a guy in the thirdmovie, he didn't die but fell back into a giant fan, and then died
Ladian - July 24, 2004 05:07 PM (GMT)
The things chasing me are xenomorphs. Though their screeching sounds convoluted to regular humans, it is communication and Yabba, being so ridicoulously old, recognizes it as such. They're smarter than a regular pack of hunting animals, and that's what she's picked up on. Sorry, I should have been more clear.
Cleric - July 24, 2004 08:52 PM (GMT)
Remember diane, xenomorph have absolutely no technology. You mentioned the thing after her had lights, xenomorphs dont, you can salvage it though by saying they're predators, they could have a light source, and they might chase a lone human child for some sick reason or another.
This rp is suspended until Jeff can post.
Ladian - July 26, 2004 10:25 PM (GMT)
They're hungry :lol: . Sorry about the lights...hmmm. Maybe, they didn't make the lights themselves but found them? Or maybe this is a weird hybrid species, half xenomorph, half wookie!!!
DarkDestiny - July 26, 2004 10:31 PM (GMT)
err.. no? The thing is xenos don't even need light they can see heat. I loved the game aliens vrs predator. (the game not the movie) I played as the xenos all the time. They didn't see in color and they could move on anything vertical, horizontal, ceiling, floor.. you name it. they were kick but and killed humans like nothing.. *fondsigh*

A vs P 2 is great, though you were able to switch between normal and night vision in that...
DarkDestiny - July 26, 2004 11:09 PM (GMT)
are you sure that was not preds? I know the preds had like 3 or 4 sights
Lightningcount - July 26, 2004 11:29 PM (GMT)
every race had 1 or more type of vision
Cleric - July 27, 2004 12:14 AM (GMT)
Diane, i have one question bout your character, assuming she gets implanted (which we'll try not to let happen), what would happen to her when the xeno tries to pop out of her stomach? would it regrow?
DarkDestiny - July 27, 2004 12:25 AM (GMT)
Aliens have two visions in the game: They see pheromones, this makes living creatures light up like a candle even in the darkest night and navigation view it's strange and makes long range vision very poor, but lights up all nearby objects.
just went to a really good site with pictures about it.

Ladian - July 27, 2004 08:24 PM (GMT)
Exactly, Tom. It would feed off her, probably grow really strong since she'd have an unlimited supply of energy, and then when it popped out there'd be a big mess and a lot of screaming, but then she'd heal right up agian. So actually, she'd be perfect for the xenomorphs because they could implant her an infinite number of times...ugh, that's an ugly future.

Lightningcount - July 27, 2004 10:20 PM (GMT)
sorry for double posting but dont even fucking start heather i dont criticise your posts, so dont critisice mine.....OK?! there's only one persons opinion i care about and thats toms becausehe clearly knows more than you do and he only made me make minor adjustments
DarkDestiny - July 27, 2004 11:13 PM (GMT)
I will concede that tom knows more then me. However when going by what I have seen in the 3 out of 4 movies I have watched, the books I have read, and by doing research on this highly informative (with pictures and graphs and exess) site:
http://www.planetavp.com/I know what you had in your post was not acurate. I also talked with my brother who is a verteran alien vrs predator gamer and he agreed with me on my points. I didn't just post that I thought you were in the wrong because of my opinion I did research. I also talked with Tom on some of the points. We both agreed that alien acid ate through three floors in the movie. Among other things. I can drop with the best of them jay. I have 30 totall aliens I would like it if you at least respected their abilities. I may not know more then Tom but I do know what i'm talking about.
Lightningcount - July 27, 2004 11:18 PM (GMT)
once again your opinions mean nothing to me, if i hear it from tom then i would gladly change my post....but obviously my post is acceptable for he only made me change a few things...so you're statistics mean nothing to me
Cleric - July 28, 2004 12:01 AM (GMT)
Look Jay, you should know that Heather consulted me on ALL of her grievances before she posted them, so in this case she does know what she's talking about. Further, she did not flame you in any way, so please treat her VALID complaints civilly and respectfully. That goes for everyone in any of my rps.
Lightningcount - July 28, 2004 12:03 AM (GMT)
hey i fixed what you told me to fix.....therefor i dont care anymore and will be more craeful in my next post and consult you if i have any questions. heather i'm sorry for flaming you....just hyave a lot of bottled up anger from shit that criticised my posts and made me feel idiotic, i took your post completely the wrong way so i apologise...we done...good....now lets get back to rping
Lightningcount - July 31, 2004 06:29 PM (GMT)
Ladian - August 1, 2004 05:13 PM (GMT)
Just hangin' in a tree, a-waitin' to be rescued...la la la la laaaa. :unsure:
Lightningcount - August 1, 2004 06:06 PM (GMT)
not even i thought it would take this long to have something happen
Lightningcount - August 4, 2004 01:11 AM (GMT)
did this die? i so hope it didnt
DarkDestiny - August 4, 2004 03:34 AM (GMT)
I posted a whole topic on the fact that I am sick and that I would not be posting for two days in any rp. When I'm sick I have trouble rping. The whole cannot think strait thing you know. Sadly I had to add a day (today) because while it's hard to post when you can't think, it's even harder to post when you can't breath. I spent yesterday on and off of a nebuliser machine. It's an advanced form of an inhaler basically. The thing is it has a side effect of making me weak dizzy and very loopy. lucky for me today was not so bad and right now my lungs are not as tight. I may post tomorrow if I'm all better.
Cleric - August 4, 2004 04:38 PM (GMT)
since Heather is this rp's xenomorph player, we need to postpone until she returns
Lightningcount - August 4, 2004 10:45 PM (GMT)
ok, this is where i make a good suggestion, why not make an npc group of each race incase anyone cant post, like an npc jedi group for jeff, predators for me, xenos for heather, humans for you tom, etc. this way we can do what we want without harming the other player characters
Ladian - August 4, 2004 10:59 PM (GMT)
I have a better suggestion. Let's all have patience and wait.
DarkDestiny - August 5, 2004 02:48 AM (GMT)
okay I'm going to be posting tomorrow if my trip's to the city museums don't take till midnight. (I may still be sick but my dad took days off just for this and i need the trips for AP art so i am going no matter what)
But I have a condition.
I control all of the xenos. They are each and every one of them my characters. I may only "see" the world through one particular one or the queen herself but they are all mine. This means you can't kill them and you can't mod them. You can fire at them and attack them and I will say if they died. I understand every rp needs a villain that must die on a large scale so on average I will have them die when fired at and attacked. I'm not going to have them be immortal I just want them respected. I will not tolerate them being modded. Likewise I'm not just going to have my xenos just kill anyone else's character without them having the ability to protest or evade the attack. However I expect people who have many characters to let a few die as well.They can be much harder to kill but they still have to die. This only seems fair to me. If you think this is irrational speak now.
Lightningcount - August 8, 2004 08:06 AM (GMT)
how about you all freakin post
Cleric - August 8, 2004 01:53 PM (GMT)
it's postponed until Heather can post dude, i suggest you take Diane's suggestion.
DarkDestiny - August 8, 2004 05:38 PM (GMT)
If nobody agrees to my last post in this ooc topic.. then i will not be posting again. It seems like no one even bothered to read it let alone post an agreement so I guess no one cares. It doesn't seem like an unfair condition to me.
Lightningcount - August 8, 2004 05:40 PM (GMT)
heather not everything needs an answer....in this case it does, i find it totally fair
DarkDestiny - August 8, 2004 05:43 PM (GMT)
Not everything may... but i sure as heck do. I'm not going to rp in something where what i now see as my characters are modded.
Cleric - August 8, 2004 05:51 PM (GMT)
soirry i though that was our original agreement, so i didn't find a need to answer it, in any event, yes, that's fine.
Cleric - August 9, 2004 08:55 PM (GMT)
diane or Brian, can you guys delete all OOC posts from the actual rp? thanks.
Crossknight - August 9, 2004 09:55 PM (GMT)
Lightningcount - August 9, 2004 11:34 PM (GMT)
why delete the ooc remarks? you dumping the rp tom?
Cleric - August 10, 2004 12:05 AM (GMT)
Jason, the RP is for RPing, the OOC thread is for the OOC remarks, are we seeing a pattern here?
Lightningcount - August 10, 2004 12:18 AM (GMT)
well these are ooc remarks we have dude, even this is an ooc remark
