Hey! This isn’t the actual sign-ups, but I Anyways, this basic idea is about using giant robots, or, I suppose, characters whose power is getting really big. Of course, there are the pilots as well, who control the giant robots. Now, any ideas? Any characters you might want to use, or suggestions for others? I plan on using Megas XLR, with the pilot Coop, at the very least. |

Some kind of sci-fi setting. Interstellar/interplanetary war, for example. Yes, there is a difference. Anyway, depending on the storyline, I'd probably join. I could even launch that sci-fi RP I mentioned, even though giant robots/battle suits wouldn't be the main focus. And an unoriginal suggestion would be the Gundam series(One-Year War, anyone?). |

I have a couple o' suggestions! We should focus part of the story on the pilots, and then have battles be in the giant robots. So we can get some character interaction going on. And on that note; how about we have human-sized robots who interact with them... and even robot pilots? That'd be a new twist; or at least one I haven't seen before. As for characters... unless I feel really nostalgic, I'd make up OC's . . . or . . . Mwahahaha . . . she could work. OH! ROGER SMITH! I WANT ROGER SMITH! Srsly, if someone signs up as Roger Smith before me I'll hit them with a shoe. A BIG SHOE. EDIT: I vote we don't base this on any one series, but allow ported characters from Giant Robo series... if it's just Gundam or something of the like, it might not appeal to people who haven't seen that. Like me... I don't watch Gundam, and I can't say I'd join a Gundam RP. |

I didn't see much of Gundam myself, but I read enough of it on wiki to have a general idea of what a part of it was about. |

Giants robots from everywhere. Megas, Gundam, Big O, Power Rangers, OCs, more. And, well, my idea is actually somewhat like Oban. They're all brought to a planet, where the winner will be promised the Ultimate Mech Upgrade. The planet would be large, obviously, and would probably include elements of the different places the pilots are from. The planet would also be 'populated' by robots, human sized ones, that preform various tasks, like food service, or something like that. Think that would work? |

That might work...but that would be something like just a battle royal style RP rather than space opera style stuff...which is fine by me, but I'd probably just RP as support charas then, and save the space opera for an RP I'll launch sometime (maybe). |

Super Robot Wars? Anyway, this could be an interesting idea, though I probobly wouldn't go into it as I wouldn't want to play as any of the NGE Eva pilots, and the only other one I could play is a guaranteed "would not work in an RP" character. |

Why would that character be guaranteed not to work? It sounds like a good idea... but I was thinking more along the lines of a grand space battle. Perhaps a group of planets at war? I dunno. I'll join no matter what if I get to use Roger Smith. And maybe Asuka. I do like Asuka.

Lelouch Lamperouge There's something about being to completely control other characters with their power, that doesn't translate well within RPs consisting of more than just yourself. (also, the restrictions of his ability also would make him not really all that fun to play as after a short amount of time )[size0]And also, I don't really know enough about that series to play characters from it, anyway

O.O Yeah, he'd be a little too powerful. Unless there was some restrictions. Like, he has a time limit as to how long he can control someone, and he can only do it to one person at a time. I mean, you *could* make him work, but you'd have to edit him seriously. But if you don't know enough about him to use him it really doesn't matter anyway. Unless someone else wants him, in which case, the editing down. |

So you guys are serious about this, eh? Heh, sounds interesting. Would we want the robots to be completely like vehicles or would they have A.I.? If it's the latter, I guess you could throw in some Transformers stuff to the mix, as well.

Heh. Heheh... Hehehehehehe... ... AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!! Well! Well, well, well! Giant robots, huh? Well then, wherever there are giant robots, there is me. And where is me, there is tech never seen or thought of before, strange combinations of stuff, and Desty Nova. ![]() Heck, my entire repertoire is high-tech. I have done numerously more giant Robot RPs than I have fantasy, so that can pretty much explain why I'm such a tech psycho. So if anyone is ever starting a giant robots RP, any, any at all... You can expect me to be there with a mech that has been thought of VERY, VERY thoroughly. If GS and BR can remember it at all, I tried to start a mech-based RP a long time ago back when this board still had an IRC room. So if either of you can remember it... Yeeees... Yes! YES! I shall rule you all with flan and tech parts! And more flan. Kyaaaaaaahahahaha! |

HA, I remember that RP! ^_____^ When this starts (I assume it will) then you should join for sure! I have an idea for this too... a series of planets, all nearby but also far. Each ruled by a different Governing Body. Some in alliance with each other fighting the others, and some remaining neutral. Each planet can have a different kind of Giant Robot! Some could use Transformers-ish robots who are alive, others have them like vehicles, some like Gundam, ect... |
