Session Start: Thu Apr 14 22:02:36 2011 Session Ident: #MCGH 03* Now talking in #MCGH 03* RDMgryphon (RanDoMs@c-76-103-147-44.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #mcgh 01 The Gryph! 01 The Brett is currently AFK, I think. <@Brett> Back A Brett! 01 AVAST 01 Man, where is Mecha. I know he has tons of questions. 01 Anyway, what kinds of backgrounds are you looking for in the characters? You said someone capable of working in security. So, I've got sort of an idea for a pilot type character and an absolutly terrible one for a ghost that keeps bothering me to play her. <@Brett> Not so different from MC4's really, except probably without people with a teaching background :P <@Brett> Lessee.... Police, military or other security is good, a pilot would be good, a driver and a hacker are a must... <@Brett> Or really anyone with usefulness in a combat situation would be good. <@Brett> Hmmm 01 I was thinking of playing Indiana Jones. Errrr I mean... yeah, okay, someone like Indy. :D Though instead of being an archaeologist, he would've been a hired thief of shiny things. Would a former-heistman be good for this sort of thing? 01 As if one can know how to get into places, they'll know how other people would. <@Brett> Well, basically she needs a reason to want to hire you and you need a reason to want to go into dangerous potentially life-threatening situations :P <@Brett> Yeah, that would work <@Brett> That could be quite useful actually. Brett: Does 71 points into insubstantial count as a usefull combat trait? <@Brett> Uh >.> 01 PFFT you really want to play a ghost? ;P She's bouncing around in my head and demanding play time. ;_; <@Brett> So you want to play Rei? :P <@Brett> If you really want to, it's probably ok, but keep in mind this is a MC game, and you're just as likely to run into someone who knows how to deal with ghosts as generic army guys :P 01 Brett: Quite useful is what I'm looking for, as we need a reason for them to hire him. :) Brett: If I submitted a ghost char I would expect every other fight to have somebody with exorcism attacks. <@Brett> Hah <@Brett> Well, being able to break into a place would probably be desireable :P 01 Also, I know Dre's interested in maybe playing !Indy's half brother, grown up in England and with a background in occult research. I was thinking that my character could give him an in to the job, assuming we go with it, as he'll be rather desperate for money due to being on permanent "sabbatical" from his university. Heh. <@Brett> That could work too, though she's not necessarily expecting to deal with supernaturals a lot. 01 My character doesn't believe in magic. At all. 01 JUST FOR THE RECORD <@Brett> Just... this is a MC game, so it's going to happen whether she knows it or not :P Indy would have a hard time dealing with the ghost. 01 New phasing technology. <@Brett> Alysha's mom is a wizard, so they'll get along fine XD 01 Smoke and mirrors! D: <@Brett> Will his name be Indy? :P We named the dog Indy! 06* RDMgryphon opens up Tsuri's char sheet. "Man, I forgot about the taunted by death thing." 01 Nah. His name will probably be Montana. 01 And his real name will be Montgomery, and he'll HATE IT. <@Brett> Fair 'nough. Will Dre be Iowa? <@Brett> Oh, he was born in England. Sussex then 01 No, Dre's probably going to pick a good, English name, which my character will bastardized horribly. 01 -d <@Brett> John? :P 01 I think Charles would be good! <@Brett> Edwin? XD 01 Then I can call him Chuckie. :D 01 Anyway, I know Mecha's thinking about making a driver person. <@Brett> Cool, 'cause we need one :P 01 Yup. <@Brett> Now someone needs to be a hacker :P <@Brett> And someone who can shoot a gun would probably help. 01 My character will probably be capable of bypassing electronic security. But I don't really have hacking in mind for him, per se. 01 He'll probably know some basics. 01 Dude, I'm playing !Indy! Of course I can use a gun! <@Brett> And a whip? :P 01 Obviously. Pilot guy would know how to gun. And if I put a bot on the plane he could call in his own airstrikes! 01 What's your take on technological gadgets? Could I have a stealth suit, or something like that, if I wanted? And can my whip double as a tazer? XD <@Brett> If someone does want to play a pilot or a sailor, there will probably be flying/boating oppertunities. <@Brett> Sure, Maria did :P 01 Yes, only my suit will be better, because it's THE FUTURE! 01 (I'll have a stealth hat. Aw yeah.) <@Brett> Yeah, but still no invisible stuff :P <@Brett> Something like the MGS4 camo is fine though But the stealth hat was one of the best Fallout 3 items! 01 I'm not familiar with MGS4 camo. <@Brett> Basically you stay flat against a surface for a few seconds and it automatically adapts camo for said surface. <@Brett> A nice upgrade from MGS3, which had you pause the game and select new camo every time you moved somewhere new XD 06* Ardweden nods. 01 That actually fits with highly experimental technology that exists now - basically, it can make someone "invisible" to a limited degree so long as they hold still. In The Future, it can just be cheaper, easier to make, and more reliable. <@Brett> It doesn't really work though :P 01 ? <@Brett> It kinda bends light and makes someone see-through, but you can still tell they're there. 01 Right. So invisible in quotes. ;P 01 But hey, this is way into the future when there's genetech and cyber, so. <@Brett> Yah Hey Brett. <@Brett> ??????? Back in her oneshot Tsuri had a unique defect that whenever somebody was killed near her the local incarnation of death showed up to taunt her. <@Brett> That's probably not going to work with this game, sorry. Aww, that was the best 2 point curse I've ever come up with. <@Brett> Sorry :x Maybe Rei can show up to taunt her instead. Is Rei dead yet? <@Brett> Prolly not, but she'd be ld. <@Brett> old <@Brett> olllllld 01 Yeah, she would be. 01 She turned 18 in MC2. 01 So uh. 01 She'd be 78. 01 Assuming she's still alive. <@Brett> She's probably in the old people's home. 01 SNERK. 01 There's a good chance of that, since she's still probably just as energetic, but prone to breaking things. Dude, she's probably one of those tiny old ladies that NEVER STOP MOVING. 01 Yes. 01 She NEVER STOPS MOVING. 01 Old Rei likely sits out on her porch and throws tang spongecake at passing neighbors' kids when they get on her lawn. 01 With unerring accuracy. 01 And she'll complain about her back or her hip or her knee and get up and climb four flights of stairs anyway. Never mind that she can just fly up it. Dude no. She sits on her porch and tells them stories about how the world actually is and then their parents get mad. 01 She'd do that, too. 01 That's for the good kids! 01 Also, she has the bestest lemonade in town. *nods* 02* @Brett (vortex@pool-71-181-227-14.sctnpa.east.verizon.net) Quit (Ping timeout ) 03* Brett2 (Brett@pool-71-181-227-14.sctnpa.east.verizon.net) has joined #MCGH reBrett orz 01 zorz 03* Brett2 is now known as Brett Anything else before I log?
