Thanks. I'll send my character to you in a bit.

EDIT: Character sent. Awaiting approval. I'll introduce as soon as the current battle is over...

EDIT2: Approved and posted.

EDIT3: Oops...didn't realize Immortal was posting...guess I shouldn't have deleted and reposted :)

I can't get the Van Halen Crossbow, can I?
You mean the Van Helsing crossbow right?

Well Lemaitre was basically the guy who Invented the steam train.

maybe we should just give Snickers a Bessy Mauler crossbow (the real version, not Titus'). Now THAT thing is a monster...

Knew I got the name wrong. 'Course, if you want my crossbow(s) to shoot electric guitars that'll be cool as well.

Kranny, if you can supply a pic of a Bessy Mauler, then I may take it. If not I am going with Van Helsing's.

F**k guns, I gotta machine-crossbow!

nah, take the automatic crossbow. The Bessy Mauler is a monstrous crossbow from an old game called Betrayal at Krondor. Simply put, it's the best crossbow in the game, and probably has stopping power that far surpasses any contemporary crossbows of the time. (Note it uses very heavy string)

Oh, I don't know, it's just the feeling that I did a guy who has a good and a bad side, and the bad side is slowly taking control as the good side slips into madness. And he has voices in his head. And in spite of the fact that he has commited himself to good he has also killed many people and quite possibly commited many crimes.....

That.

EDIT: Bloody evil smiley!

Starts with an S, ends with a fu. Almost died on Grandia, but since a certain King saved it, it's here. Although since the GM is never here and the majority of people have not put in their Charries, you can say it's dead.

Shame. It always seems that whenever I begin to get into the bulk of my character, the RP dies.

Edit: I forgot, you weren't part of it, you wouldn't know.

I just read it. I'm surprised that we came up with similar characters, but not that surprised...it's not a very uncommon conflict. Before Gemini there was Dufresne/O'Malley. And before him were countless other characters with multiple personalities. But again, my only reason for the split personality was simply because of all the rationalizations I came up with for why an inquisitor would join this party on their quests, this conflict seemed like it would be the most fun to play :) .

EDIT: Although at the moment the rationalization isn't complete...there's still no direct reason why he'd join the party. That'll be answered in my first post though.

True point, I got my inspiration from Dufresne/O'Malley. However as things wore on I noticed that he was more like Dr. Jeykle/Mr. Hyde. (A book I have been meaning to read actually...)
You'll have fun doing the split personality, I did. Hell, I got my emo-ness out through him.
The difference between our characters though I believe is that Gemini was more uncontroled, emotional, more colapsing. Your character is just beginning to loose control, he still has an intact moral conciousness, and is not trying to rid himself of his dark side yet.

People can talk to your character, no one could really talk to me.

Edit: Take it from me, you have to commit to this. After I began to cheer up from my emo-ness, even I didn't want to do Gemini. But I had a great story from him, and I commited to that. But I was wating for the day when I could do something different....

Well...I figure extensive training from the church in the suppression of tainted magic is the only reason he's been able to keep the corruption at bay for such a long time.

And as for being able to speak to others (even while the voice is present), the control gained from years of interrogating others would help with that.

Well...he is...or will be when I introduce him. In a way he always has been.

I wish I'd had the chance to play out Masau...I had the story for him planned up until his death. But the Death Note RP died before I got the chance...

Jean on the other hand, I don't have much of a plan for. I might "cure" him, or I might finalize the corruption, or I might kill him off before either event can happen. But I'll enjoy playing out whichever story I choose.

Ok I guess I could clear up some things. Machine-gun sniper crossbows are awsome and should be used but only if you got a good reason for having one.
Also no one gets an army, yet.
Bob your charecter is awsome and I can not wait to see your first post.
That clear everything up?

So... Any idea how we can get out of this mess? from my point of view there are some options.

A powerful wizard like Kran,Bob or Jaw can make us teletransport to some place away from that in.

We can simply run, but Immortal is going to make our lives a heck for doing that.

We finish them off. With considerable consequences for the kingdom that hired those mercs (We might just have doomed the city of some invasion).

We can make the mercs stop and try to reach them to understading (Not gonna happen since most of you would rather die in fire than do that).

Jean would probably be the best for that...Divine magic is the most likely to have an ability like that. But I was toying with the idea of "releasing" corrupted Jean during the fight.

Plus...Jean wouldn't run from the fight, and I doubt some of the other characters would...

Even if all of our characters were willing to do that, it wouldn't be my preferred outcome. The only reasonable reason for Jean to team up with this band of misfits (half of whom use tainted magic in one way or another), is the other side attacking him.

My guy wouldn't be able to use any form of teleporting that would work on others. It would most likely kill them. Unless he transforms them into the same thing he is.

Sorry about that John, Ill get someone to randomly Butcher you in a moment.
Jaw please do not do more then one post per update, What your doing makes it alot harder on me, the GM, to properly run this. I know you want to respond to other people (Hell I made the same mistakes when I first started RPing) but please wait your turn, for the comfort of everyone involved in this.
Kupoin......your charecter....is awsome.....just...awsome. Go ahead and make your first post when you want to add it in cool1 .

To everyone else involved in this. Thanks for making this RPG a sucess (by my previous history :happy: ). I can't wait to see what will happen as we RP. What adventures we will get into as differnt people add in differnt ideas. What people we will incinerate and decapitate.....uh I mean help. So again thank you :happy: .

To everyone else not involved in this RPG:
You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

Since I'm the last person to join, I'll assume that I'll be last in the posting order. I'll wait until the next update to actually do anything, since suddenly jumping in to the fray will be a bit... Strange. Me posting how I, say, walk out of a tavern (though that's highly unlikely, considering my character) will interrupt the flow of combat you have going on. And besides; hopping in to the middle of everything is just plain rude.

As I said jump in when you assume it would be best too. Also there is no exact order that dictates when you should post. Post when you feel like it, just remember (as Im sure you know by the detail your charecter has) that its only one post between updates (unless I or any other GM say otherwise) and that if you can't post between updates to give a heads up to the current GM.

Oh and John look at my update. You now have something to do.

Excelent post, I wouldn't say you are rusty at all. However I do not know why you added in the activate feat thing. There isn't any skill system so you don't have to worry about activating your abilitys. However if you want to add it in as a way for everyone to see what abilities your charecter is using then go ahead.
