Sora's Baby 729 Posted April 22, 2015 Question then why are we from different univreses? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrapmaster 1,731 Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) From what i've seen so far most trials have been up against these individuals, which may just be Q's "Siblings" and the like, so my theory is that she's sending us on a manhunt on them without us knowing, all with the reward being information about why we're here and all, but I find it suspicious that everything we do to thee districts give "life" back into them. Could very well be that every district we "bring back" gives Q more power and control over the city, I find it oddly suspicious, maybe she intends to use us and then simply...delete or absorb us when we're of no use for her anymore. In short, Q is searching for power, which will be gained by killing these targets of ours and who knows what she'll do then. Unknown challenges are Anomalies, something only the Doktor may known, as Q doesn't seem to know much about it herself, she said they are a manifestation of the city's will? maybe theres more to it than we thought Only one..... You said humans, but Yuki's a Saiyan. Sooo....Try explaining that for me? Individuals, doesn't have to be specific humans, for all we know we might even be just AIs and we don't know it yet.

Arya Stark 1,337 Posted April 22, 2015 Only one..... You said humans, but Yuki's a Saiyan. Sooo....Try explaining that for me? Considering the OP insinuated that the RP was focused only on humanity, their lives on Earth, and wherever the City is, I am assuming a Saiyan was never a part of the plan. Also, take into account that MDS said to take out the part about Saiyans when he first quoted your post (which assuming you changed his backstory to fit having no Saiyans in the RP) I am led to assume that Yuki is actually a delusional human, broken by the stress of an environment and clinging to the only thing that helped him in his life on earth, the fictional universe of Dragonball. And Sora.... Why would we be from different universes? So far, none of us are from a different universe than the one that we the players know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scrapmaster 1,731 Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) But then, how do you know you're dreaming? when you don't even know where your character is and what is happening to her...maybe "real" self? how do you know we're not just Ais created by Q? by analysing the real world? how can an AI be able to capture humans anyway?

kingdomhearts45 469 Posted April 22, 2015 Okay...... All of that might make sense for Yuki, but I don't think MDS had a problem with the Saiyan part. After all, he let me keep his tail. But still...I don't think I changed his backstory at all. MDS didn't tell me to do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oblivion 22 162 Posted April 23, 2015 My god... How much did I really miss while I was on holiday? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arya Stark 1,337 Posted April 23, 2015 I like the power idea (it just couldn't be too powerful). The one thing is that for the City, for the purposes of the plot, all the characters are like a normal person would be in the modern day, thus half-Saiyan wouldn't really work as that's derived from DBZ mythos. I rest my case. Perhaps he has changed his tune since then, but since I have not seen any new information on the matter since then, I was led to believe that you followed the request of the GM and changed your character accordingly.

Scrapmaster 1,731 Posted April 23, 2015 My god... How much did I really miss while I was on holiday? Not a single thing thing have been slow on not only this Rp but some others too. Welp ample time to catch up I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingdomhearts45 469 Posted April 23, 2015 You...Have a point. But still, he let me keep it. But I'm really hoping he was somehow pulled from his universe to this one. But either universe travel or human theory will work for me. But that raises a question. HOW did we end up in the City? Did we get transported? Were we captured? Did we disappear? HOW?

He let you keep the tail officially. The other changes he left to you. As for how we all got here, we don't have enough information for that quite yet. Potentially, Q is powerful enough to pull us into this data world simply by us accessing the internet. Or, another faction working against the Doctor and for Q captured us and threw us in there. Sora, you probably weren't part of the plan either because the Doctor put you into the City but didn't give you any information upon insertion, or you were taken into the City later than the others so she simply hadn't planned for you coming at all. 1 Sora's Baby reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the fact Yuki and Sora have tails shows that Q's pull was not as smooth as she thought, and accidently glitches her code. With Yuki Prolly being at a DBZ convention dressed as as Saiyan, and Sora in her foxmaid outfit at work, that could explain the tails and Sora's additional ears. 2 Josuke Higashikata and Arya Stark reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kingdomhearts45 469 Posted April 23, 2015 Okay. good theory. VERY good theory. I just wonder how MDS handles this. Keeping Yuki as a real Saiyan or making him a human in real life....It catches my attention. After all, so far, Yuki is the most interesting character being a Saiyan and all.

Well who is the most interesting is subjective. I think its le chef, no one can withstand the power of his culinary skills! Not that Maxwell cares though...

Simply being a Saiyan doesn't make you interesting. What makes a character interesting is how their backstory and personality combine to form their actions and storyline during a game. 2 Josuke Higashikata and Silvia Kuroi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silvia Kuroi 1,480 Posted April 23, 2015 Simply being a Saiyan doesn't make you interesting. What makes a character interesting is how their backstory and personality combine to form their actions and storyline during a game. Precisely. What makes a person interesting is how they came to be who they are. While what they are can make someone interesting; focusing solely on what they are and who they can lead to flat, uninteresting characters. People like seeing growth. We like to see development and change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingdomhearts45 469 Posted April 23, 2015 .....Somehow Caroline, you're always shooting me down. But yeah, I get the point. Maybe the next MDS RP I'll try to come up with a character that might get people's attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scrapmaster 1,731 Posted April 23, 2015 Best way is to make a character you like, don't make a character to get people's attention, do I care that no one gives a damn about Maxwell? I dont, neither does he 1 kingdomhearts45 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
