Glitch
 

I was browsing through the RPGs in the forum and I couldn't really find any that would be easy for me to get into, so I came up with an idea of my own. Although the TMNT are a very major part of this idea. your online personas/avatars will be necessary to make this work out.

Here's the pitch:
Imagine you are surfing a favorite Ninja Turtle fansite and, suddenly, a glitch comes into the system. Your computer starts to act very strangely and sends a shock wave through your body causing you to black out. When you wake up, you find yourself somewhere in TMNT 'dimension' of New York City, looking like and possesing all the powers and skills of your online persona.

Here's what we'll need:
-Anyone willing to play their own online persona
-All the major TMNT characters (Leo, Mike, Raph, Don, Splinter, maybe April and Casey)

Yeah, I know it's far fetched, but it could also be a lot of fun. Let me know what you think! We can start as soon as there's enough interest.

Here's who's taken:
-Stryker: Shredder, Blaze, Stryker, and Mike
-Moomintroll: Rami
-Tetsu: Raph and Tetsu
-Friction: Don, Leo, and Friction

Anyone is welcome to join at any time!

I'll Play!!! :D
I'll be, of course, Mars and Raph.

I'll be Leo, Tyler, and Evo, Rogue.

Sounds good so far, guys. I'll, of course, be Friction. Be sure to post your character bios somewhere on the site if you want to use that char (with the exception of the major tmnt characters). I'll have mine up soon. If no one claims Don, I'll be happy to take him, but I'll let anyone else who might want him get first pick.

Tyler's Bio is already posted.

Sounds like fun. I'll be Kali, of course. And... Splinter, haven't played him in awhile.

i'll be playing stryker (serious version)

and i'll play as if he was already there

theres no way im playing stryker version 0

so there!

Yay! It looks like we're getting a lot of interest. I've posted my bio in the sticky character profiles. So we're still missing a Michelangelo, at least...

Oh, Tyler and Rogue are gonna be in the TMNT universe. And I'll play a hacker by the name cqb101 who gets sucked in.

Alrighty then. It'll be cool to have Tyler and Rogue involved. I know Rogue is awesome, and Tyler looks pretty cool too. I think we all know how much you love Rogue. :wink:

Really? Man I thought I kept it a secret. :P

Oh, I've got a couple questions. Is there a specific TMNT universe we're using, or just a generalized version? Also, will our avatar characters, once teleported into the TMNT dimension, still retain our RL knowledge of the TMNT?

Just a couple details I was wondering about. I think about weird things when I can't sleep. :lol:

Hey guys, I am totally new here, so I don't have my Avatar made yet ( i wil as of tonight I think) I am also not very experienced with RPGing, do you guys care if I join and would anyone be willing to help me out a bit at first?
Also, what universe are will you be using?

hmmm
 

Sounds fun. I'll be Mikey (Miragish). Bwah!!

Re: Glitch
 

Try my TMNT/ MK/ Marvel RPG........ anyone can join at anytime, and there are plenty of good characters to choose from, and you can claim as many characters as you want, when you want... just make sure you read it so you know what's goin' on. and if you dont want to thats fine too.

As for your RPG... (cqb finally beat me to Leo)
I'll be VORTEX and PYTHON (profiles added)

(ignore this...double post)

Yeah, I probably shoulda mentioned those. Oops.
1) I was thinking more along the lines of the Mirage comics, but with slight modifications. (The Ninja Turtles should be in their late teens/early twenties)
2) Yes. This should make for some interesting events whenever our characters meet up with the TMNT!

To Moomintroll:
I don't mind if you join in. Everyone has to start somewhere. There's just a couple of rules: No controlling other people's characters. No godlike characters. (Am I leaving out anything?) And as I said above, the RPG will be set in the Mirage universe. That means no Krang, Rocksteady, Beebop, etc. Sorry guys.

Hope that clears up all of your questions.

I might want to join but should I play Me or Whiteshell?

This sounds cool, I'm going to keep my eye on this for short while and maybe join in ^^
So if Marvel characters are allowed, are Wildstorm characters allowed too?

As long as you keep the number of outside characters to a minimum, I don't see a problem with it.

That depends. Is Whiteshell your online persona, or just a fictional character? Go with whichever one represents yourself online.

And Moomintroll, it would be greatly appreciated if you shrunk your avatar to a smaller bandwidth.

Yes, Moomintroll, please shrink or change your avatar so that it doesn't stretch the frame.

I'll play myself, as I am online. Making use of my running Voodoo gag! :P

You know what? I think I'll just play myself...and leave Raph to someone else.

There, I just added myself to the profiles. I'll be playing the "Voodoo Mon" version of myself!

Added myself to the profile list as well. *rubs her hands together* Can't wait to get started.

Ya'll have fun. I'm sitting this one out. Later.
BAMF! *disappears*

hmmm
 

Good call!!

Oh boy.....

Aww. That's too bad, Mars. Come back in if you change your mind.

Well that means we're short Raphael (any volunteers?), but I think we should still get this show on the road! I'll go ahead and do my "intro" in the next post. Feel free to do the same. I'm gonna start out at home on my computer just to explain the problem, but you guys can start out in New York, if you'd like. Whatever suits you.

I guess I could play Raph. You're allowed to play more than one character, right?

Yes.

Yeah, sure Tetsu. Most of us are!

^_^ OK then.

Glitch...intro
 

(Here it is...the basic intro. Although it shows my character, it also gives the basic info about the computer glitch)

The clock in the corner of the screen read 10:07 PM. Outside, the sky was quickly nearing its darkest hour, turning from shades of navy blue to a deep opal color. In fact, the only light that penetrated the room was the dim glow that radiated from Friction's computer monitor. Despite this, it would be hours before she even thought about going to bed.

This time of night was the best to browse the net. There was no noise, movement, or activity in general to disturb her concentration on the one subject that mattered to her at the moment: the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. She scrolled down her favorites list, waiting for the current page to load- Official Site, The Technodrome, Kali's Asylum... Her eyes shifted back to the main screen.

That's strange...

The script had stopped loading. Instead of the usual text, a blinking message caught her attention. "Caution: System error. Shut down immediately."

What the hell??

Before she had time to react, a sharp pain coursed through her body, knocking her out.

((Hope you didn't mind my mentioning your site, Kali))

**Waking friction Up**
Tetsu: Friction is that you? Did you get sucked in too with the rest of us?

cqb101 stood up rubbing his head. "What the hell just happened. Who are you guys?"


*******************************

Leonardo got out of his bead. "I just got a really weird feeling."

Tetsu: I think we're all forum members. I recognize some of these people as Avatars.

*********************************
**Raph bursts into lair**
Raph: Guys! I was outside training and, I just saw a huge flash of light downtown!!!

Leonardo looked at his brother. "that's weird I just had a strange feeling. Did you get it too?"

Raph: It sure felt strange to see that light, let me tell you!

Huh? Who's there?

*Friction blinked a couple of time and rubbed her head, trying to catch hold of her bearings in the dark. She suddenly jumped up, noticing the grass under her body*

What the heck? Where's my room?

*****

*Don walked out of his room just as Leonardo spoke*

Nothing felt strange to me. But then again, my computer shut down right in the middle of my Warcraft session, and I can't get the thing to come back on. That's a little strange, considering the rest of the power seems to be working fine.

cqb101 walked over to Friction. " You're lost too?"
