So we're thinking of getting roughly 5 people together to have a freeform DBZ RP here on this board. If you have been invited to take part in this, or just happen upon it and want to take part this thread is going to be used to discuss the format of the RP before we begin. If everyone would throw out some campaign ideas or whatever that would be cool.
The Breakdown: I'll do DM duties, this is not going to be stat based or super strict, just for fun. I'll come up with some kind of story based on whatever party we can come up with. I figure the only stat we will track is PL, and I'll just tell you guys when you gain some or something (unless someone has a better idea)
Story Idea: I figured perhaps the party could all be Saiyan warriors sent out by Frieza pre-DBZ timeline to free planets of their intellegent life. It will make for good mission based gameplay with story goals and whatnot, plus we can eventually tie some of them together into a larger arcing story.
Anyway that's my idea, everyone who is going to take part in this should voice their opinion, as this is going to be for fun so everyone needs to have an input to make sure everyone has fun!

Another option I see is embracing the goofiness of DBZ. We could each make our own alien race and be part of the prelude to the Ginyu Force Five. We'd each be able to make some special racial perk and it would still be basically the same setup as the Saiyans, only we aren't Saiyans and we pose.
Maybe instead of individual stats, a basic list is made and we use percentages to show where our character falls into each. Say there's 5 stats, the average is 20% per stat and its just a guideline for how the fighter fights and how their body is toned.

That's an equally good idea griff, the only thing I can see about the Saiyan group that is more promising story wise is their enslavement by Frieza and how that can play into our over arching story arc.

Yeah I was actually hoping to see you on Msn to ask you, cool. Well with Santy that gives us a definite 4 which is enough to get started whenever we want to. Hopefully Saiyen will join us as well. Lydeck what is your opinion on what sorta 'party' we should be? Clearly we have to all be on the same side for it to work, any ideas?

The Saiyan option definately has more potential for a storyline, but the Alien force offers more character customizations, plus would be more of a twist to the classic dbz rp.

I'm going to go ahead and assign random PLs to everyone here in this thread. We'll use this as OOC talk to if needed. If you want to keep profiles you can do so in this thread or we can start a profile thread, up to yo guys if you want to keep profiles or not. RANDOM PLs + Daikon: 1607 — + Griff: 1442 + Santy: 1644 + Saiyen: 1858 + Lydeck: 1597

Name: Arug Height: 5'8″ History: Arug has just recently joined the Saiyan army, this being his first mission. Stats: PL: 1442 Strength: 19% Defense: 22% Ki: 28% Speed: 31%
Just something basic to let you guys know that he's gonna be a raw recruit, a photo and a simple breakdown of his stats.

That's cool Griff, I think we should pobably all do mini-profiles of this sort. I'll create a thread for them later and a small standardized template/box.

I'm not sure if Saiyen and Lydeck are going to actually post, so if you guys want to skip them feel free, there is no reason for us to be held up. I'll find out if they are actually going to participate and if not find some body or a couple some bodies to fill their place.

I've been giving them a little more time to post, but it seems as they aren't so once I've drugged myself through the toothache I'll bang a post up.

Yeah it appears they aren't going to post, we'll just have to go on without them while I find a replacement or two. Shouldn't be a big deal.

Since I put my bio here I figure this would be a suitable location for this. I know its freeform, but I like writing abilities so I'm just gonna write any I come up with for Arug.
Ki Punches: In order to make up for Arug physical weakness, the saiyan created this technique by forming ki balls around his fast adding ki explosions to each one of his punches. This takes its toll on the saiyan's arms which decreases as he gets stronger and more proficient with the technique.

It probably wouldn't be a bad idea for each of us to detail a few key techniques. Just so our characters have a little more combat depth. I think I'll follow suit and post up a few ideas myself.

Just posting some ideas here for my signature attack(s)…
Brassicales Blast: Hands are held at sternum height forming a sphere of blazing crimson ki roughly 8-10 inches in diameter. Ki is compressed and charged in this manner until sufficient in size and power then cupped and released as a wave.

Two new techs that involved my hammer.
Ki Aura: Arug extends his ki aura to envelop his hammer, adding his ki to his basic attacks.
Ki Explosion: This is an updated version of ki punch that won't harm the arm. Ki aura must be placed on the hammer then that ki can be manipulated into one location on the hammer to cause an explosion. The explosion can be on the attacking side of the hammer going off after contact or it can be put on the other side of the hammer and set off the make the hammer move faster to hit quicker opponents.

Arug's ki: While Arug is skilled with ki, it is very specialized. His ki dissipates quickly after leaving the body, burning fast and strong. At the moment, full strength has a distance of 30 yards and half strength can reach 50 meters. He mainly keeps his ki contained in his body or his weapon.
Socahtoa: While Arug was trying to develop a technique to protect his body from harm, the saiyan recruit stumbled upon an idea that could be even more deadly to his body. By suffusing his body with as much ki he can generate, Arug can increase all his physical attributes to a whole different level; causing his body to take on a deep blue glow. Even with Arug specializing in ki, the saiyan is unable to hold the technique for anymore than 3 posts and afterwards is almost completely immobile until he has had time to rest his body and restore some of his ki. (The almost immobile only allows for breathing and talking just above a whisper)
Note: I figure these amounts will increase as the rp continues. So, I leave it to you to increase as you see fit if you don't mind.
