if there's a Magneto-mun somewhere
we need to conspire to make him say that
I'm trying to get a tag out to you
There's a magneto mun that I know but he doesn't play at ste
GET HIM TO SAY WELCOME TO DIE
haha no rush I understand distractions.
Iiiii have not gotten more water
I need to get both of these things
hey should I post to the OOC comm that I have a plurk now? so I can follow other people in the game??
you can also go to the contact post
and find characters you have cr with and friend them, but an OOC post is probably better outreach
oh also yeah make sure you add yourself to the contact post so that
if someone is looking for a way to get in touch with you they can find it
lemme grab a link to that I think it is burried somewhere
aaaaaa how does this work
or should I go alphabetically???
you'll be alphabetized when you enter it I think
any ideas on how Michael and Ghannam should meet?
depends on when you get in!
cuz its new and I'm not used to it yet
hello blu
oh no who is this dashing stranger
the person uploading your tutorial video as we speak
ohp while you are on the ooc comm
I always forget to check the ooc comm for stuff orz
YUPP I just tagged that thank goodness
so Ganondorf is working for Dr. Solus?
atm he's just volunteering after hours
Unsure what job old Michael should have.
at 60+ perhaps he's retired?
looking back on his life. He was a smart man, he did everything he was supposed to do right
and for some reason he could never keep a job
(Some reason being his egotistical personality and inability to properly sympathize with people)
So apparently this is what Markal looked like as a young man
which is weird, why is he green
MARKAL IN HEROES V LOOKS LIKE AN ORDINARY MAN
tutorial posted on tumblr for you bb <3
Someone with education and a degree...who nevertheless never managed to get anywhere with his life.
boo I didn't want italics
I'm thinking that, like Luke
Michael will deny his name ever was Michael
that there ever was a person that wasn't Markal
I'm unsure what he should echo first
Necromancy's a big thing.
maybe memories of his raising of King Nicolai and takeover of the Griffin Empire
A throne, the old man slouched across it, fetid, undead slaves serving his every whim, "living" and "dieing" at his whim
Michael will be a massive Smug Snake, just like Markal.
Which is why Ghannam will be able to play him like a fiddle.
I'm gonna be quiet tho I'm gonna pick up this picture I was working on before ;;
hi
boss doc
lmao this is great because i just did an introplurk behold my joy for robots
we shall get along fine
okay but StE slowly turning into a robot tho
yeah that's happening to a few peple
like the old man elian
/FISTPUNCH oh god still old man ow
okay but no seriously Ghannam has to come see the fight club
oh god helene would be so reluctant at first because SHE IS A BLOOD KEY AND SO IS
mawiles 's SKYLER AND FFFFF
DOC MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T KNOW
YOU ARE AN ADULT SHE'S GOT SOME RESPECT FOR
AND THUS SEEKS A BIT OF RESPECT FROM
he wants to come to make two you two properly patch up after this
shriek no he has cure magic they're fine
and when he actually gets powers
to tell you you're doing it wrong
"THIS IS HOW YOU PUNCH"
"/MAKES CRATER IN GROUND"
alas this is yet another long-term goal
also I will totally tag you back I'm just doing art atm
god knows i can take forever with tagging
/stares at 2 week old tags
and why would numbers join the Keys?
DarkenedGenius: Helene started out as a Blood Key. It triggered her first Echo.
OOCly, I wanted to explore the aspect of having someone at least starting somewhat antagonistic and seeing where things went from there. :|a
(As opposed to Blu who may be going the opposite direction dohoho)
dude I'm trying to get Luke to move in with Ghannam
thats how "good guy" this shitter is trying to be
helene is going to harass the shit out of luke at some point and try to beat him up for the other keys jsyk
(I'm still here reading up on potential future game-mates)
Jack here is trying to fucking convince me to make Ghannam the father figure of the dude he's apping
Michael's going to start a villain!
And probably -stay- a villain!
oooh
He's going to start a -nobody-
and become a magnificent villain
that's kind of -why- he resonates so well with the mad necromancer Markal
when Ghannam turns he's gonna be like Markal slow your roll
I really do love playing villains/antagonists. It's fun plotting the stuff to mess with charas ICly.
we all know who's the king in town
also who are you thinking of apping jack
you answer to me or I fucking kill you that's how this works
do you think Ghannam and Markal will end up killing each other X3
Jim Hawkins from Treasure Planet 8>
I'M APPING Jim hawkins from yes that
I think Ghannam and Markal will have some battles but I don't think I want Ghannam to die cuz I don't think you can come back???
istillwanttorunad20campaignbasedonit
No, dying is permadeath unless you have some sort of ability.
in canon they burn him to death to make sure he can't just ressurect himself
Elian
might die at some point but considering when he dies in canon he still appears in every goddamn episode
hell it might trigger him being able to fucking turn into Ganon
and he STILL comes back anyway!
don't get me on the subject of TP, I'll never shut up continue plotting so I can look like I know what's going on if/when I get in
I think the best part about apping Jim here
that his reincarnation is older
so he's gonna fucking age down
you might turn Markal from this
necromancers are hard to kill
god i love this having like an evil crew
that could be a really interesting plot
two bads go against each other and end up just
MAKING EACH OTHER STRONGER
here helene is just a former evil minion in her old life and now just w/e w/e i want me and mine safe idc about anyone else
and popcorning on the side waiting to see who comes out on top
you guys have fun kicking ass she just gonna follow whoever survives
I've no idea how things are gonna run but if he CAN get one
Markal, on the other hand
man if Markal is evil right out the gate
he'll try to endear himself to someone important
it'll take a while for Ghannam to be blatantly evil
He's a nasty and evil person from the start
but he doesn't fully embrace being that until he finds out what power he wielded as Markal
there could be a point where everyone fucking knows Markal is someone to watch out for
and Ghannam can play saint to his sinner
dude could become his scapegoat
we've got the Enemy trying to screw the world necessitating it needing to be saved, we've got the NUmbers tryin to save the world, and THEN THERE'S THESE ASSHOLES
"I'm with you guys I want to stop evil guy"
OWN AGENDAS OF WORLD DOMINATION
Markal doesn't even care who wins or loses, only that he's on top when the dust clears.
helene'd be cool just hanging out in the shadow
if you guys're cool with that
but omg Helene when he decides he needs an evil crew and he finds out you're even talking to this asshole
BUT THEY ARE BASICALLY DRAGONS
so I'm gonna app Hiccup after the big event and uhm
Harry: OH MY GOD LET ME TOUCH YOU
SHE DOESN'T HAVE EITHER BACK YET BUT EVENTUALLY
that's going to become a common catchphrase: "HARRY NO"
what are Ganon's minions?
from that fuck yeah if she has it first
everything you fight in Ocarina of Time
and whatever the fuck Ghannam has
we also have the hokey pokey
magi-nation it is dead now
(helene/harror, ftr, is the pink dressed one on the left)
so she's just gonna be chilling
while these crazy guys just duke it out
and only succeed in making each other more powerful
this is going to be great
BUTTING MY NOSE BACK IN HERE TO SAY
no seriously tho Helene stay away from that asshole
Come to Markal, Helene. Take my side and I'll let you live.
that if Helene wants to go after luke for vengence I would so be down for that
well she does know you a little better than him
BUT it would be even better if
Why would Helene want to go after him for vengeance?
luke got aged back down to a kid before this happens
He screwed over Blood Keys
Oh Luke murdered a bunch of blood keys
OH MY GOD is he getting aged down again
a bunch is probably an over estimate
So yeah basically taking out her frustration/feelings of helplessness/outgunned etc on a little kid.
1 at minimum potentially up to 5 but we never actually logged out the aftermath of that last fight with Gavin so
I have a feeling that if someone is seeking revenge
Markal might help them along that path
I would love for her to kick the shit out of him and it later coming to bite her in the ass.
orly
the problem with luke is that
always has weapons on him though
yeah that's what i was thinking
and by help I mean manipulate the hell out of them
OH GOD MARKAL IS EVEN MORE LIKE HER FORMER EVIL BOSS THAN GANON
alright, so, shadow magi are basically 'tainted' magi of the original regions
who one way or another were manipulated in to the dark side
were manipulated via subtle whispers from Agram (aka Big Bad)
Okay, he was the B-villain of his game
who is ancient and evil and wants to kill everybody etc
it's the manipulation thing i'm feeling :|a
who saw the war between humans and demons just ending and Isabel in grief over her dead husband
and thought "I can use this."
yeah Ganon is more straight forward with his henchmen
And he did. Specifically, he used -her-.
"You fuck up or I punish you so bad you'll wish I hadn't punished you so bad"
i just sent u a friendship thing
Markal actually CONVINCES ISABEL
dark misses his friend phantom :'|
and accept him as advisor
because he can bring back King Nicolai.
TECHNICALLY HE WASN'T LYING
When he -does- bring back Nicolai and Isabel is frustrated about it, Markal just leaves her, because she has been completely discredited in the eyes of her people
and takes over because he defeated Cyrus, a hated enemy of the Griffin Empire
WHILE PUBLICLY PRACTICING NECROMANCY
So yeah, you have human and undead troops fighting side by side as villains.
And in fact, Isabel is the boss -after- Markal.
Markal's a B-list villain and yet for some reason I think he was the stronger villain
probably because he was so deliciously hammy
so yeah I'm going to have a lot of fun playing Markal
But the thing is, Michael needs to be good at evil plans
because Markal's plans were well
to crush his ancient enemies into the dirt, rise to power as leader of the necromancers, raise the King of the Empire as a bloodthirsty vampire that almost destroys the Elves, take over the Empire
and protect his mortality with three relics such that the good guys ultimately require three armies to kill him. He got to rule half the factions in the world all without actually lying to Isabel about why.
Every single step of his plan was also one of his goals.
so i'm a little worried that I can't do that well enough
So basically he's a politician.
except he also has a massive undead army
[insert joke re; apping real life political candidate of your choice here]
From someone who's been there; as long as you talk with people OOCly you can usually handwave most of the deets.
It can be hard playing a really smart evil dude but it is worth it
I might start it with him taking advantage of the fact that he -is- a nobody.
After all, who'd suspect that this doddering old man is behind the undead attacks?
That he's the one empowering the Blood Keys? He's been helping us, providing useful intel, why would he be working for them?
And then the undead troops turn against the Blood Keys, and he reveals himself...and is lauded as a hero.
because he just -stopped- the villains
And by the time they realize that he's actually way worse, it's too late.
I'd say Michael likely ISN'T very good at evil plans since you want him to be a hopeless underachiever who's plans went nowhere
and as he echos back things he gets better
but it'd be a slow, slow process and he'll likely fuck up a LOT
get to big for his britches thinks he can do the thing
thing catches fire and he has to go home and lick his wounds
it could give people IC reason to think he's a threat but an incompetent one
so people will think he's this just doddering old man with delusions of grandeur
delusions of grandeur and maybe eventually actively fucking things over for others
Then he echoes back Curse of the Netherworld.
(the ultimate Dark Magic spell in his game)
cuz remember Michael's goals will be different than Markals
The primary of which is recognition.
He won't start playing the long game until later on
even if he echos back the big bad curse, he may not be using it for the same reasons
the Curse of the Netherworld literally
deals ridiculously heavy damage to everything on a pitched battlefield that isn't undead or demonic
The only magic I'm going to have him echo back as its own thing are Curse of the Netherworld (the Dark Magic ultimate) and Howl of Terror (the Necromancer ultimate skill)
echoes are about gradual addition
that'd be very, very lategame
and when it does happen he needs to get killed off soon
because frankly, at that point Markal won't really care who he kills with it
true but like idk if he can only have that magic without any other magic
he'd get it at the top of his tree
i'd be building up his magic slowly
given how that's the ultimate Dark Magic spell in the game
hell you can't even get it by basic training, you have to get a specific artifact
which gives you "Ultimate Dark Magic" and the spell Curse of the Netherworld
he doesn't get that until the pinnacle of his power
because that's literally the most powerful dark magic in the game
and he probably can't even use it that often, it costs an insane amount of mana in game
at the start-ish, he's going to be this shitty dark-mage who all he can do is slow things and make them weaker
sorry darlin I got started on artwork
'm glad you're apping he sounds really cool 8>b
