I don't know about this. Not that the idea isn't good, and not that I don't like the idea of an RP where people make beefy posts, but I don't think I have the character lineup for this since I only have two games of my own and not many registrations in other games. Also, when I establish a setting and tell a story, I'm generally designing it all at a fairly low power level and specifically not catering to the 'who would win in a fight' mentality. Should be fun for you guys though. Also, who drew the map Someone went in the previous version of this RP with a normal (for the Pokemon world) 7 year old. You'd be fine. |

They ought have less to do with taking away agency from people, or at least PCs. I'll probably implement them differently but try to keep the concepts the same.

Yeah Punk its not about Power levels at all. Hell Mario is in it.
Oh maybe you can use Gate characters. I know Emppy allowed me to use Pixy the Pikachu PhD, Fen Fen the Delphox and Chlortles the Gengar.
I am sure if you asked he would. Or maybe you can be like some third party involved in Oz or some other group or maybe you can be part of Oz royalty (I RPed as the Princess of the kingdom along with everyone else.).
Even Crow RPed as a maid, cook, a demon in the shape of a maid (Geraldine shudder), along with his characters.
Heck PM Emppy and as long as your willing to work with him on characters and not a total jerk about power levels (things rarely got to a PvP anyways and Oz isn't that heavily reliant on PvP anyways.) Oz is less about feeling all powerful and more about the interactions with the characters.
Like having Crows Pokemon Trainer Corva interact with Luigi and Poulterpup. Bowser interacting with Oz royalty and trying to behave. Mario turning the queen Glinda into Tanooki Glinda after he accendtly turned Crow's leading lady June into Tanooki June.
Also you have your Cyoa so you can use them in Oz too. Imagine Logan and Bowser having to talk it out. The power rangers and Mario having to team up to take on Eggman, Fawful and Wario.
If you want a Super boss make a powerful character for that purpose. In fact I might make a character soley to be a Boss.

Mario is powerful as fuck and underhyped I don't want to use Gates characters because they're mostly adaptations of characters. Maybe Mary Bathsheba, never got to write her much. IDK. If there are invincible edgelords running around I don't really want my characters associated. But if the world's big enough that I don't have to run into that kind of character often, maybe. |

Hey guys I am going to have Sonic and Eggman show up in Oz along with the 7 chaos emeralds?
Sonic and Eggman will each start off with one and the other 5 will be scattered amoungst Oz. I was hoping to have the other 5 being guarded by boss characters. Does anyone want to be a boss/ guardian that we have to battle to obtain one?

I can do that. Don't know which one of my villain I'll pick yet, but I'll do that.

I have a question Emmpy.
I know you'll have no idea who these characters are, but my question is:
Can Vaikau have Kent as a Card Character, but Kent has Ryza and Dam as Summon Cards?

What's the status on alternate continuity versions of characters, potentially drastically different from the original game? Here is why I ask: I create my characters for specific purposes, and I don't really want to cheapen them by making them just 'appear' for no reason in a crossover with no connection to the narrative or themes I made them to explore. Like, I would hate seeing characters I've built story around being turned into Final Fantasy style summons. If I could reinterpret them, I would feel less bad about that.

I think characters should still be interesting outside of one specific circumstance built just for them. Or you could think of it as a way to look at it from a different angle. Or, heck, think of this as a chance for them to grow a different way.
They don't really just appear, they get sucked in and are aware of the need to get back. So, for examples... Corva, a character all about REVENGE, decided it would be a good place to take a vacation since there weren't any (as far as she knew) members of Nova around. Waite, a character all about obsession, was only thinking about getting home. And June was torn between wanting to help these new people and wanting to get home to her new family.

The question for me is whether to bother bringing back the Support Staff. Seeing as they were originally created as a way to do stuff while the story was being stalled by... stuff.

Obvious fact: I'm basically just not thrilled about the prospect of opening the mainline versions up to be beholden to whatever the RP throws at me. I prefer having a reasonable amount of control over my creations that weren't designed specifically for roleplaying, particularly when it comes to making sure that the environment they exist in matches what I created them for. I'm not at all interested in exploring stuff like Logan trying to assemble a mech using Oz technology, or Warm Sun smoking dank kush with Bowser or anything like that. My stories are specifically and deliberately not in continuity with any Vitcon crossovers to date, and that's how it's gonna stay. Even the Fawful and Pixy that Yoshi uses aren't the originals. |

In the original Oz I was going to have "imperfect copies" of some characters, which would evoke their powers and likeness but not actually be them, but we never got around to the point where I was going to introduce them.

Most of my cyoa characters especially are future versions like the whole conflict ended and they are just enjoying life when boom they get Oz.
You have control over your characters and what they do.
Obviously Pixy is not the original Pixy and Fawful isn't gates Fawful. In fact when Fawful and Wario first meet they are going to try to kill one another because they are foes originally. Then Pixy and Fen Fen will convince them to work together. They will explain that they are good friends(even though the Wario and Fawful Fen Fen and Pixy know are different from the Mushroom Kingdom Chronicles version).
In a sense Logan wouldn't need to worry about building mechs using Oz tech or Bowser getting high with Warm Sun.

Well... I was thinking of bringing in Virus, since he's my most significant Vitcon villain, but as I always say, he becomes broken as soon as he's a PC.
So I'll go with Robo Bob boosted by the Chaos Emerald.
