The Character Creation League! (Sign-Up/Discussion)

[The Chou Lives]

Yeah. Might not have enough stuff to go around, unless everyone just buys a bunch of real-world items.

Well, if it comes down to it, we can do a more traditional CCT.

I actually like this point based system with stuff.

I have two ideas.

1: PM People who have posted and just ask them for joining or submissions.

2: No one really has submission limits in terms of submitting. Only limit is tier of said stuff.

Example: I made the most 5 tier team members. But could add more players, just not tier 5 anymore ( did make 1-3 so that counts.)

As for items, that too.

Instead of a number total limiter the limit of how much tier was is in this thing.

Because so far it seems to be 3 teams. Bob, Oggy, and myself.

Arena should be higher than 1, just for variety.

And win/loss/ power creep limits based on how many people actually make a team. ( like how many loses until taken out and stuff.)

Totem

Cost: 4

Powers and Abilities:
Shapeshifting into the following forms -

WereEagle - In this form, Totem's body is encased in energy that creates an anthropomorphic eagle with a feathered eagle's head, 20 ft. wing span, taloned claws and a sonic screech capable of bending steel. In this, his fastest form, he can fly at mach 2 speeds.

WereFox - In this form, Totem's body is encased in energy that creates an anthropomorphic fox with head, claws and tail. His speed, reflexes, agility and strength are equal to MCU Spider-man (McGuire)

WereWolf - In this form, Totem's body is encased in energy that creates an anthropomorphic wolf form that has the wolf's head, claws and tail. In this form, his senses are the most acute, allowing him to track targets from miles away, see in near total darkness and hear the heartbeats of those around him. Additionally, while not as agile as the Werefox form his running speed and strength are doubled (class 30 strength / running speed 75 mph)

WereBear - In this form, Totem's body is encased in energy that creates an anthropomorphic bear that has the head and claws of the bear, as well as a significant increase in body mass, growing from his standard height of 5' 10" to 9' 6" in height. Additionally, this is, physically, his most powerful form as he is a class 75 strength, highly bullet resistant and highly durable.

Equipment:
Sage's bag with various powders and herbs used for medicine and rituals.
Uses spirit energy to create native weapons of his people, tomahawks and bow (think Night Wolf from the Mortal Kombat series)

Personality:
Warm and caring, Totem is a great lover of nature and respects those who treat nature with respect. While looking to be grizzled and world weary, he is actually well adjusted to others and willing to share his story to those willing to listen. In terms of teamwork, he is the one most likely to act as the resident mentor / sounding board for dealing with personal problems or stress.

Backstory:
More than 200 years ago, a Navajo medicine man sought the protection against a Skinwalker threatening his tribe's village. Seeking help, first from the nearby Army Fort before being chased out, he ventured deep within the forest to convene with the spirits within. Upon deep meditation, he received a vision from the four sacred guardians, the wolf, fox, eagle and bear (the same guardians adorning the tribe's totem pole). The guardians struck a bargain with him, they would give him the power to protect his people in exchange for his life. Only the eagle, the wisest of the guardians, tried to convince him of the folly of this decision, but encouraged to protect his tribe, he agreed. Thus, he gained the ability to harness the powers of each of the totem animals, but at the cost of immortality. While this seemed a blessing at first, it became apparent the true cost of this when he outlived his mate, their children, their grandchildren and would eventually see the destruction of his tribe at the ever encroaching approach of the Europeans who claimed this land. Now, in the modern world, he desperately seeks to find a reason to continue, despite not knowing why. However, because of all that he has lost, he understands pain better than most, and wants to keep others from that grief and loss.

Eh, maybe i'll chuck a few in after all.

Whisper

Cost: 3

Powers and Abilities:

• Comic Book level Spider-man stats (class 15 strength, bullet timer speed / reflexes / agility)
• Master martial artist in following disciplines (jujitsu, muay thai kickboxing, jeet kun do, aikido, Eskrima stick fighting, judo and greco-roman wrestling)
• Doctorate level knowledge of following sciences: biology, chemistry, anatomy
• Genius level intellect, tactician, and strategist
• Speaks 19 languages conversationally and another 12 casually
• Stunt driving / piloting skills
• Pressure point combat specialist
• Heightened healing factor (movie Wolverine)

Equipment:
Enlarged forearm guards constructed of Titanium/Carbon alloy with following gear:

• Large, tear-shaped shield on either bracer for close quarters defense. Shields can be spun and locked into place to create stabbing blades
• Extendible carbon alloy "whips or coils" can extend to 10 feet in length (used as standard attack whips) or up to 30 feet in length (used as grapples, when retracted, allows Whisper to reach higher level platforms. Tips are hardened platinum, thus will pierce most surfaces) These coils extend from the underside of the bracers, allowing Whisper to grip these for better control
• Adrenaline: Kept within panel on right bracer
• Nano Healing Salve: Kept within panel on left bracer
• Smoke bombs: highly concentrated concealing smoke contained within small spheres (5 bombs contained within panel on right bracer - gray in color)
• Flash bangs: military grade flash bang concussion bombs compressed within small spheres (3 bombs contained within panel on right bracer - yellow in color)
• Liquid nitrogen bombs: concentrated liquid nitrogen compressed within small spheres. Used for either defense or offensive purposes (4 bombs contained within panel on left bracer - blue in color)
• neurotoxin bomb: Specialized bomb used to paralyze target, neurotoxin is of Whisper's own formula (4 bombs contained within panel on left bracer - green in color)

*note* all specialized bombs are the size of marbles. Though small, they have the potency of standard grenade weapons*

Broken Staff: A six-foot staff comprised of reflect metal (causing a residual shockwave to strike the target with every hit from the weapon, thus the target gets hit twice), the staff can separate into two three foot Eskirma sticks. Additionally, pressing a button on the handle of each stick will cause them to break in half, and be connected by a chain, giving Whisper a set of nunchucks

Personality:
Often viewed as emotionless or "all business", Whisper does not convey much in outward expression, save for her eyes. Those that truly know her can spot the subtle inflection in her eyes and are able to judge her mood. While this subtle emotional response may frustrate her allies who do not know how to "read" her emotions, it is baffling to her enemies as they are unable to determine her thoughts or intentions in battle. And given that she is so intelligent that standard IQ tests are unable to plot her intellect, she is generally five steps ahead of everyone on the battlefield.

Backstory:
Created as part of the Committee's efforts to create the "perfect" human being, Whisper was born within a laboratory, genetically viewed to be the perfect human specimen. Physically, mentally and emotionally deemed the apex of human civilization, her infantile body was injected with nanotech machinery designed to hyper elevate her natural abilities. When the process was completed, it was estimated that Whisper was 2 if not 3 evolutionary levels beyond standard humans. As a test of her capabilities, she was placed in a room with four armed gunmen who emptied their automatic weapons at her. Each man swore that the bullets seemed to pass right through her, however, in reality she caught every bullet fired, her hands moving so fast the gunman could not track her movements. With her skills, speed and above all, intellect, she has proven to be a threat to any enemy, and even the most dangerous of foes will give her respect and consider her a danger to their plans.

Alright, I'm giving this until October 13 for sign-ups.

You can only play if you've submitted characters, so you need to at least submit one thing.

I didn't want to overload the lists, but just to make sure we have enough things to pick from, I'm increasing the submission limits to twenty characters and items. This way those posters that may only have a few things to submit can still participate, and we won't necessarily risk running out of stuff to pick.

[The MunchKING]

I've got some more dudes I could submit. I don't particularly want to play in the league part, but I will permit you to use my dudes...

Hrmmm... While the thought is appreciated, and I don't want to be rude, if you don't actually want to play, I'd rather you didn't submit anything.

*shrug*

As you wish. Have fun without the Tarans.

[Sharkerbob]

Alright, it's pretty clear there's not really enough interest in this.

Shit, in rifling through all my old characters and items, I've realized even I'm not that interested in these CCT's anymore.

So, sorry guys, I'm gunna call this one dead.

[The Chou Lives]

We just cannot have anything nice anymore. I threw out so much because I did care and like it. JUST sucks only three of us did something with this.

Yeah, I held off putting more in until I saw if others were going to add more, but like I said, even I've lost a lot my passion for this, it seems. I guess I'm focused on other things these days.

I guess I wouldn't mind doing another Mix-n-Match Tourney, those are quick and easy.

Truthfully when it comes to original material, I keep it off net except in this stuff and another site Ingo to where ideas are compared, fees back and likes and dislikes and stuff.

Really only thing left I got here is some nerd knowledge of who beats who and why. That’s about it.

I'm just trying to focus on writing actual stories these days. I've got lots of characters in the backlog, but not enough narrative to go around with them all.
