(OOC) Transformers: Robots in Disguise!

[Brother Shatterstone]

Phoenix is in the Rogue's Gallery.

A revise of Jackknife is up, he has a level of scout... His skills probably need to be redone as he has knowledge of humanity that he probably shouldn't...

As for the IC thread, Vendetta, simply an amazing job so far! (Everyone else too!)

I’m curious… Have you decided how many of the Autobots are on the Ark? (Or should I just assume that all of them from the serious minus the Dinobots are on board?)

Edit: On Vendetta, just an FYI I'm game with everything in your above post, I'm more about hoping that everyone is happy with the character they have than about the mechanics... I just want to make sure the game doesn't end cause we got wasted in the first battle.

Sir Osis of Liver, Glad to hear it. No worries, just get it up as you can. If you've read the story, you'll see that I've left it open for new players to join in any time, so it wont be odd or anything. Also, email me if you have any questions.

Here is a list of every Autobot from the G1 and on the first season of Transformers.
Bumblebee
Cliffjumper
Huffer
Windcharger
Brawn
Gears
Bluestreak
Hound
Ironhide
Jazz
Mirage
Prowl
Ratchet
Sideswipe
Sunstreaker
Trailbreaker
Wheeljack
Optimus Prime

Each of these 18 Autobots was on the Ark when it left Cybertron but are damaged in some way, as well as any future players joining the game. At one point, when the proper amount of resources have been gathered, all of them will be functional (barring some kind of unforeseen accidents or GM smiting).

The Dinobots were not part of the trip from Cybertron but were built by Wheeljax when the Autobots needed extra firepower against the Decepticons. You might have noted that Teletran 1 (in my version of the story) activated and began scanning the life forms of earth when the Autobots crashed 64 million years ago and saved detailed information on the Dinosaurs of the time (sadly, some of the actual dinobot forms were extint at that time, but we can just fudge that ) should the Autobots get to a point that they could also make Dinobots in this adventure. Naturally, getting your friends funtional again is a priority over the D-bots.

As far as the story goes... It was just so long... I had to snip and cut out a lot of details and stuff that were not directly related to the story (several touches that would have made it a better read). As mentioned about the dinobots and Teletran 1, there are other clues and things in that story that will impact the game as we go (hope I didn't cut too many things accidently) but don't worry about trying to figure out what's coming or anything. Just keep it in mind so that you can referrence it later when something or other clues you.

If you still have it, you could post the document as an attachment. I for one would like to read more

He looks great and should do a darn good job as a scout for the group (with a nice gun as well.)

Only one thing.. Your Nexus Reserve should be 14, not 12
3 (Power Priority) + 2 (Int Mod) + 9 ({cha mod 2 +1}x3 levels)

Woot, two more points

There was more fighting, especially on the Ark and when it launched from Cybertron. As the door to the Ark closed, Prime was going to see Elita One shot and Jackknife and Ironhide were going to have to hold him back. Several unknown Autobots were going to die in the Autobot Senate room at the hands of Megatron, to help show his viciousness. As well, there was going to be an atmospheric chase by Thrust, Skywarp, Thundercracker, and Ramjet trying to shoot the Ark down, with Autobots manning guns and shooting back. There would also have been more cameo appearances by the Autobots in the fight inside the Ark.

Once on Earth, Spike and Sparkplug would have gone through a discussion with Teletran 1 as it explained to them how to revive Ratchet and trying to get the humans to trust it. I actually LIKED how I ended that part with T-1 just introducing itself and letting it all just go. So that worked out better. I was also going to have the deep sea expidition discover the Decepticons, which I regret not even writing because it would have been very dark and ominous. But by the time of night I was tired and already cutting out stuff because the whole thing was just too long.

There would have been a couple more appearances by each of the characters, but I'm glad I limited it as I wanted to include them in the story (to make your characters just as much a part of the whole thing as any other Autobot AND show a reason why Ratchet and Wheeljax chose you guys to reactivate first) but I also didn't like taking liberties with your characters without having seen their personalities in action... so I tried to keep their thoughts and words to a minimum.

Anyway... that's about it and it probably would have doubled in length. I short-cutted some of the descriptive phrases to try to cut in to the significant details. So a part of me worried that it wasn't going to be a good read. I'm guessing that it was good enough.

Do you wish me to post Phoenix waking up in the RP thread? Or wait for the hour to pass and be introduced?

I still want to read it... Nice synopsis and all but its not the same.

Here's another vote for the full story. Maybe even with Phoenix involved.

Ratchet is a genius and can have you ready when ever you want to jump in.

Well... maybe I will work up the rest of the story and put back in the stuff I edited out. And... add Pheonix

Wow pretty good list. Are you going to be able to pull transformers from the other seasons in or will that be the only ones? (Minus the possibility of the Dinobots.)
