    Reformatted the character once more. Now, about that Stasis catalyst...

    The Stasis catalyst does require concentration. Which is why I added the phrase "glitches out" in the description.The force field works by using the biochemical energy of the nanobots. The nanobots don't activate the field by a push of a button. They react by the users brain stimuli since they are basically integrated with the users nervous system and muscle tissue. Even though the nanobots are synthetic, it still counts as "psychic" ability from a different stand point. I hope that clarifies what you meant by concentration.

    Yep, that makes sense, now the only problem is that I'm getting 76.5 as your total points score — That's 26.5 for the main attributes, 27 for the teleport, force field and pseudo-attributes and 23 for weight and possessions. Wondering

    Really? Because the point total comes to 60 for me. Wondering 

    (20+5)-10= 15 (main attribute balance)
    (20+5+2)-10= 17 (teleport, pseudo-stats and weight balance... forgot to erase the force field from main attributes; sorry for the confusion.)
    (10/2)+10+(16/2)+5= 28 (equipment balance)

    15+17+28= 60

    Not sure how you came up with 76.5, I purposely used dividable numbers to make the math easier. O_o

    EDIT: Sorry, the equation comes to 65, not 60.
    EDITv2: Sorry, again... The point total comes to 60. The second equation was 17, not 22. >.>

    When I came up with 76.5 I did indeed add the forcefield twice — my revised total is 71.5.

    I notice you haven't included your limited attributes in your main attribute balance, this comes to an extra (5+10+8)/2 = 11.5 points.

    Incidentally, how does the vibroblade grant your character extra Inv? You can use the blade to take damage for you, but it has separate health points as covered in the Health and Healing section of the OP — gaining Inv on your character when using the blade implies it creates some sort of extra forcefield around you when you are holding it. Wondering

    This is a good thing considering that I've completely redesigned Nab (and the rest of the Nardradis) appearance wise. Nab has also been renamed as well.

    Speaking of which his (WIP) character sheet has been added to my post. Enjoy the unfinished wall-o-test bio that's going to explain almost all of The Grox War's plot.

    Not a bad move, since it's always a good idea to redo a creature or outfit as you get more experienced with Spore. Might I ask, however, that you zoom in more before taking the screenshot? Even by enlarging the image I'm having a hard time seeing the details of either of your creations.

    Alrighty that will be done.

    One question though, how many points are left on Jrakel now that I added the reduction?

    Changed the appearance of my character. Went with something more realistic and suitable to my character...

    Also thought of using this. Thoughts?

    The first picture is substantially more awesome than the original image you used, and makes a lot more sense in the context of the RP's setting. I can get a bit of an insight as to how you imagine your character to look simply by observing the two pictures, which can be summed up as 'sleek, dark, hyper-advanced, full body knight armour'.

    The second image in your post, the one that looks more like a crispy version of the Pale Man (look it up) than any suit of armour, doesn't at all help convey the image of the aforementioned knight armour. It does give an indication as to what you might want the shape of the helmet to be, but that isn't really necessary.

    @Naboo: Needing to regain his balance after switching between running and fighting with his lower set of arms would only be a 10 if it took more in the region of 24 hours to do. For 2.5 points, you can have it such that you're at a -20 mitigation for any other actions taken in the same turn as making the switch, rather than the -10 you would be at otherwise. That would balance your total out at 60 points. Happy.

    I don't have an exact estimate just yet, but I shall endeavor not to leave y'all hanging for too long. The main conceptual issue is deciding on a balance between testing the system, keeping things relatively brief and making it feel like an actual RP with a story and space for character interactions. Ideally I want it to be fun, but at the same time I know it'll run for way longer than I want it to if I'm not careful. >_< I had wanted to go from somewhere relatively close to where we left off, but I may have to throw out my notes and do something from scratch to meet my own requirements.

    Fortunately that may not actually be necessary — writing that last post helped me get over the first hurdle and now I'm well on my way. I've put together a plotline, so making balanced character sheets for all the NPCs is my current task. In-keeping with the theme of experimentation, I fully expect to have to alter some things on the fly once the system is actually put into play — the combat mechanics and health system, particularly the latter, were original rather than lifted from the system linked in the OP so the numbers are unlikely to be completely suitable.

    I might even put an IC up soon and give everyone time to introduce their characters before we proceed into the game proper, since the story is just about nailed down (I did salvage my notes, just not the parts I had planned on using originally...) and I've only got the gameplay design to go.

    @Naboo: It'd be great if we could get your second character's points assigned soon.

    I'm working on the IC right now — my plan is to start us off making our final approach to a new world with everyone aboard the Lacuna. If that's a problem for you, speak now or forever hold your peace. razz



    Changelog:

    Under Combat, Health and Awesome-points:

    —Zero health points is no longer the point of death — instead it is the point at which your character falls unconscious. Death occurs at -20. I may well alter health values if characters start being horribly beaten when we test out the combat.

    —Coup-de-grace: Attacking an enemy at point-blank range who is completely powerless to resist (unconscious (not sleeping!), completely paralysed, missing all of their limbs etc.) is an automatic hit — move straight on to adding up your damage score.

    —Awesome-points must be spent in units of 10: So you can spend 10, 20 or 30 to buff any one score but not 7, 2, 29 etc.

    —Specified that AP cannot be spent on pseudo-attributes.

    —Awesome-points will return to max every (Earth) day, more or less (you can see why this might be complicated to figure out when we're running around alien worlds and space, but it should boil down to 'every time we do a decent-sized time-skip and/or get some rest). Maximum Awesome-Points is now 50.

    —"Weapons come in a lot of different varieties, so how they are repaired is for you to roleplay — please try not to abuse this fact."

    I'd like to ask a question about one-hit-kills. How would those work? Like Nab concentrated to land a headshot or its equivalent on that species, or Jrakel lunging and pinning an enemy down to tear it apart?

    You could do either of those things, but they would only be one-hit-kills if the amount of damage dealt by the attack put the target beyond its point of death — enemies will have stats just like player-characters, though I won't disclose them directly.

    You can write inner monologues in first person, 3D, as you have demonstrated, but the narration would preferably be done in third person. You were with us for the first NR, and you seemed to have that down pat.

    A bit of context for Hadron: He has only joined NR very recently. Besides perhaps a few insignificant missions, this Swires thing is the first major thing he's participating in with the team (assuming something will go wrong during the mission, which is pretty much a given). In case it wasn't clear, he knows basically nothing about the Kingdom.

    I hope his character isn't so cowardly as to be unrealistic; this is my first time RPing and I'm mainly just trying to emphasize some of his character traits before he sees any action.

    Flank and Samantha joined up during the Rangers' last mission on Ariid, like how Flank joined up in the original NR, but a bit later.

    They were working together for two years before they joined the Rangers.

    I guess it couldn't hurt to also give some context about Knightmare...

    She joined the Rangers pretty recently. She’s currently going under the final stages of her required energy recharge. Meaning that, she’s going to have to drain a large amount of bio-energy later in the RP.

    I’ve already given a slight psychological profile in my original post. She tends to get pretty paranoid about unimportant stuff. The reason she’s always paranoid is because she believes anything is possible (like wearing an immortalized nanoarmor with living nanobots razz) meaning that she also has the capability to be an optimistic person.

    She’s quite asocial at the same time. Living century after century, she doesn't have the pleasure to make any friends since they all die before her. This makes friendships and relationships irrelevant to her.
