The Fall of Gods Book I, Chapter II: OOC Thread (OPEN)

[Laughing Peninsula]

Aye. Needs more departments. Can't never have enough departments.

To answer you and Loli,

This is a heavily libertarian based government. It only handles the absolutely necessary function for government to have. Everything else is handled by the people themselves or small businesses. Of which there are many. You won't find many large corporations in this America.

And I do include the Department of State Loli. I deliberately excluded the Departments of Labor and Education. They are stupid and useless wastes of money. Though I'd prefer we not get into debates on political and economic models on here. It being a character based RP, we can just assume libertarian or socialist governments could work without getting into nitty gritty details.

God damn Libertarians, saying they can pay for all these wonderful services with out actually telling us how to pay for any of it... *goes into a corner grumbling*

This has been a LoL Island Joke, the views and opinions expressed in these jokes may or may not reflect his actual views, especially when they do

The final result.

[Jedi8246]

The final result.

Not that I understand the crypticness of this, but he sent me the one that you had asked me about Aggy.

[Agadar]

It's been a while since War and I talked about it, so I'm not entirely sure what you're about.

A little bird told me that Aggy told Loli that hints need to be dropped. So hints shall be dropped!

*squint* I'm not going to argue, but I do feel obliged to say this, there are a multitude of things wrong with the underlined. And many of them are wrong on a very fundamental level. For the most part, this is not opinion, this is fact that has been established as such multiple times.

I just don't like he bold.

In your opinion, it is fact. I however, disagree.

Thus, like I said, I refuse to turn this RP into a political debate. If for the purposes of the RP we need a functioning communist or libertarian state, then it shall exist. People breathe fire and see dead people in this RP, so we're not exactly concerned with reality here.

[Warhaven]

Reality is an illusion. If I so desired I could cobble together a functioning coherent government out of a dead rat and a stick!

....go on.

I would but if I did the result would shatter your mind so hard, residents of Andromeda Galaxy would be calling up to complain about the noise.

While reading through the old OOC thread I found an app for Omega,,,,

Name: Captain Michael Hammer, codename Omega.

Age: 27

Power: Energy projection, he is able to create and manipulate a form of pure energy to achieve a variety of effects; Energy blasts, forcefields, flight etc. His supply of energy isn't unlimited though, using a lot of it at once means that he'll have to fall back on his more conventional methods of inflicting bodily harm while his supply replenishes. Also, being able to manipulate energy does little good if one happens to get in the way of a metal slug traveling at high speed, so he still has to be careful when entering combat situations.
He is also adept at armed and unarmed combat, having been trained by the army.

Background: The only son of General Jack Hammer, Michael grew up in a home where patriotism and discipline were valued highly. Therefore it came as a surprise to no one when he joined the armed forces as soon as they would take him. Despite his enthusiasm he proved to be less capable than expected, which never ceased to disappoint his father. He was headed for an unimportant post guarding some backwater no one cared about when his powers first manifested, which changed everything for him.
The government now saw him as a valuable resource, a patriot with superpowers who wanted nothing more than to serve his country. He was immediately placed in special training to hone his skills and metahuman abilities. Five years later his trainers considered him to be as good as they could make him, and it seemed that Londim would get a new poster boy for their superhuman recruitment efforts, a purebred patriot to smash their enemies and smile at the cameras. But less than a year later they reconsidered their stance on superhumans, deeming them dangerous and needing to be controlled.
Michael, ever the patriot, didn't oppose the government's new directive that all superhumans who didn't willingly surrender themselves needed to be put down or captured. So he became one of the supers who hunted supers, all from a twisted sense of duty towards a government that had never done anything for him.

Current Situation: He is currently leading a small task force, Omega Squad, in the hunt for superhumans. He is still a disappointment to his father.

Indeed...

More odd ideas that cropped up, this one by me:

You what could be cool. If the evaluation of Reznov by merdad (Mentar) has him fired or something and they need a new leader. My guy could fill in the spot. Or something. Just a thought.

The early days of FOG1 were an odd place indeed.

The original council

We made a Council to vote on issues. It's me, AU, Alby, Quid, and Esc.

Either the OP decides everything, or we all decide everything. Pick one.

And the early asshole that was Arcad replies:

The Council decides. We take a vote. You're just jealous, because you weren't on when we made the Council. You can't change it.

He continues to be an asshole to which Aggy replies

I'm glad you're still rational, unlike Arcad overthere.

Anyway, I can't remember the OP explicitly giving this 'council' any authority over the roleplay, and frankly I don't even care anymore at this point. The thing is, I am not going to participate any longer in a roleplay where Arcad is authorized to make decisions affecting the entire roleplay. His incompetence has been shown during our little clash here.

Earth Sphere Coalition, I hope this roleplay will still be enjoyable to you.

Arcad, welcome to my blacklist.

Have fun.

All the early dramas, brought back for your viewing pleasure.

... I still miss Pip... D:

And I still remember how that Wind controller Warhaven made created a HYPERCANE... you know... the hypothetical storm about half the size of the US with a windspeed of about... 500mph... Nooo one batted an eye

Though I am proud to announce that I and Chaos believe we have far and away one upped the dick Arcad ever was

Which one is the dickiest Council member?... um... *looks back and forth and jumps out the nearest window*

[Warhaven]

Yeah, I apologize for the fiend of air, she was no where near as strong as she should've been.

*with growing horror, everyone realizes Warhaven is dead serious*

This is of course ignoring the other elementals, which from what I remember basically exposed the mantle and sunk half the continute... this again ignoring the kill sat... that bus ride... Neo St-

You know what, FoG 1 was just really fucking weird, like the Silver age of Comics weird

[Agadar]

Those quotes bring back memories. Me going all butthurt about Arcad's douchebaggery... ah, the good old days. And there are still many more good days to come.

In other news, I am determined to write up a nice big post within a couple of hours.

You need not wait long

[Zarkenis Ultima]

So, I don't want to be that guy, I seriously don't, but... are we close to finishing the act now?

[Karaig]

So, I don't want to be that guy, I seriously don't, but... are we close to finishing the act now?

I'd assume so:

Agadar and I tged and we wont be continuing the spectre raid due to the act coming to a close: it served its purpose to show spectre wiping out roman naval assets and the Pope's mad gamble.

[Agadar]

So, I don't want to be that guy, I seriously don't, but... are we close to finishing the act now?

I got only one more post to go.

Alrighty. Thanks.

On top of that, how long will be the time skip? I need to do one last post but it'd be nice to know how much time there was between

Couple of months I suppose.
