Superheroes of the Trust OOC Thread II

[Victim]

She is in fact a combination of the two aforementioned members of the League of Doom, so 2 points for that. But she was inspired by the still-outstanding RWT point.

Correct on Deus Ex. The Trust does of course have a bit of a UNATCO feel to it. Jock is actually a double reference, and Harriman is based on another you haven't guessed yet. 1.5 points so far for that.

And another point.

Four and a half points! Look out, I'm getting points (Link to Penny Arcade, profanity warning). Were these points worth anything?

Nope. The Geldarans, btw, are EASILY the most obscure non-RWT reference, if not the most obscure reference period

Part of the problem is that there are just so many aggressive, evil space empires... The other big distinguishing characteristic I can think of is that their abandoned ship has been fueling our technology and providing us with an awesome base. That reminds of the situation at the beginning of Robotech/Macross, but it's probably been used in other places too (it just came up in the new transformers movie too, for instance) - and that's not exactly the most obscure source.

Now I might have to replay Deus Ex for that missing guy.

I am going to be out of town and without access to a computer from Aug 21 through Aug 24. (That's Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.)

Looks like we're just about done with our current thread.

Saw this on ATT:

Heh. So much for that...

------------------------

Here's a sort of odd question for the game: Are any of the one off PC characters (Salix, Angel, Brimstone, ???) attending Viridian's funeral? From an in game PoV, they agreed to help and then never came back. Are we just sort of pretending like they were never there since they dropped out quickly (especially Brimstone)? Or does their disapearance have some in game significance - like they've been killed or captured in their secret IDs? I've sort been wondering about what happened to them before, and the very public funeral seems like a good place to bring it up, but dealing with exPCs seems sort of awkward. Is their presence or absence something we should note or deal with in game in some manner, or are we just sweeping the retired characters under the rug?

A lazy person might just turn them into bad guys since the stats have already been worked out.

(I wanted to see what Elric posted first; Nitro has generally been our go to guy for speeches so far. Funny that people should have virtual stage fright.)

It's been a long day and I'm too tired to post anything resembling a speech tonight. I'll try to post tomorrow, though.

I'm having a hard time coming up with something classy that praises V, says what we need about Barrington, and is in character.

Back in action, ready to spread the seeds of chaos amongst our comic book enemies!

Posted. Man this was painful to write. I declare no more in-game funerals for at least 6 months in real time.

I second the motion.

Apollo is the odd man out he didn;t know her very well at all before she died
