Vegeta and Raphael

**Nturtle** · 09-16-2002, 05:41 PM

Nart? for a name? ok sounds good what do you think Azure?

**azure turtle** · 09-17-2002, 01:33 AM

Sounds good to me... But I'm suddenly reminded of Narf from ThunderCats.

**Nturtle** · 09-17-2002, 02:39 PM

I didn't see that one coming!! or maybe Narfil

ladygarth · 09-17-2002, 08:54 PM

Either one.

character list(so far): Ladygarth : Goku
Nturtle: Piccolo
Azure: Michaelanglo/Krillin?
tmntfreak: Raphael/ Vegeta

I can also play some of the female DBZ characters like Bulma and maybe Chichi.

**azure turtle** · 09-17-2002, 11:54 PM

All right then... I guess I can do double duty as Mikey and Krillin. I'll jump in as soon as the RPG starts.

**Nturtle** · 09-18-2002, 05:00 PM

well if no one wants him I'll double with Shredder, but just in case no more people want to join

ladygarth · 09-19-2002, 10:09 AM

okay, that's fine/ We can start whenever everyone is ready. We can just start posting here or create a new topic.

*enigma-1* · 09-19-2002, 10:14 AM

I may join in later. Just don't expect me to do Chichi or Bulma. I can't stand them

**azure turtle** · 09-19-2002, 01:47 PM

I think you should start, ladygarth. You're RPing as Goku, right??

**Nturtle** · 09-19-2002, 02:41 PM

right, ok Enigma, I don't think Chi-chi or Bulma ar entirely nessicary!

although we need people for the other turtles splinter and the baddies!!

*enigma-1* · 09-19-2002, 07:22 PM

Hmm. Do you prefer deathly insane by power or just egomaniac?

**Nturtle** · 09-19-2002, 07:35 PM

well hes from Piccolo's family, I was thinking more deathly insane by power

I figure he wants to countinue his father's legacy like Piccolo originally wanted to do.

*enigma-1* · 09-19-2002, 07:37 PM

Hmm. I don't normally do male chars, but I'll try this time. Guess I can make a cross or something. I'll see what I can do.

**Nturtle** · 09-19-2002, 08:29 PM

well do whatever you want really, you could always be April or #18 if you don't want to be a male char

ladygarth · 09-19-2002, 08:36 PM

Or Egnima can always be an original character. Maybe a female Saiyan who wasn't on Planet Vegeta when it was destroyed.

*enigma-1* · 09-19-2002, 08:43 PM

True. If I did that, then it means I could use a char I've had for awhile but never found a purpose for.

**Nturtle** · 09-19-2002, 08:57 PM

oh yeah that a cool idea!! hey what exact tome period are we staring from?

*heretic888* · 10-09-2002, 01:52 PM

Hi, im heretic888 and this is my first post, so listen up.....

If the turtles and z fighters were to have some sorta crossover (whether rpg or fan-fic), we'd have to take several things into consideration.

The biggest issue is, of course, the seemingly dramatic differences in 'power levels' between the two 'universes'. I mean, Goku can blow up figgin planets with a kamehameha so that seems to leave our turtles at a bit of a disadvantage (needless to say, fighting would take place at SOME point)!!! But, let's look at all this logically and realistically. Yamcha and Krillin (and possibly Tien), 'normal' humans in DBZ, are capable of flying, moving at incredible speeds, and projecting energy blasts of immense power!! Yet, in TMNT, the 'normal' humans are limited by the same laws of physics that we are in our real world. Why is this?

I propose a theory: Ki does exist. Ki is the bio-electric energy within all living creatures, both static and kinetic. It is essentially electromagnetic and polarized in nature. Because of this, the electropolar forces of the Earth and the universe have an influence on the personal energies of individuals. Thus, the electromagnetic forces that govern the Earth and universe in the DBZ 'dimension' must be immensely more powerful than the ones the TMNT expereince! Thus, mere mortals are capable of the 'supernatural' in DBZ!!!

Where does this leave us: well, if the z fighters were to enter into the turtles' 'universe' it would cause them a tremendous DECREASE in power and ability. But that would be boring. Rather, i propose that the turtles somehow enter into the DBZ earth. The resultant would be a POTENTIAL for the Turtles to reach ENORMOUS levels of power and ability!!! Perhaps they could even achieve something along the lines of their equivalent of a Super Saiyan or Super Namek!!! Remember, the Turtles have an extensive martial arts history and ninjutsu has a very strong internal/esoteric component to it. The creative possibilities here are very interesting...

In addition, I would suggest utilizing a version of the Turtles similar to the original Mirage form. In the old comics, there was much more of an emphasis on martial arts training and martial philosophy and culture which would fit in with DBZ much better. The Turtles in the old comics also occasionally evidenced 'supernatural' martial arts abilities that was rarely seen in the other formats. I believe the Mirage Turtles would more effectively be able to adapt to a DBZ universe. Who knows what they could accomplish in the 'Hyperbolic Time Chamber'?

It would also be interesting if the individual Turtles had unique and various transformations and unique speciality techniques... possibly drawing upon the Tournament Fighters video games or the "Super Turtles" anime as a source material.... I foresee something as basically the Mirage Turtles overlayed with elements and tones from the Tournament Fighters video game and Super Turtles anime..... this could incorporate both 'super transformations' and 'fusion techniques' AND 'specialty techniques' and 'ultimate attacks'. We have all seen the manga styled artwork in the snes tournament fighters instruction booklet. Just some potential ideas.

I would also hope that the dragonballs dont play that much of a role in the story. Too many times they act as a crutch to get the characters out of some deep ****. I think it would be interesting if the dragonballs helped revive a deadly enemy that threatens both worlds or if the dragonballs somewhoe brought the turtles to dbz earth... but the dragonballs should only be featured at the VERY beginning or VERY end of the story (or both).

Thats all i got for now... what do you guys think???

**Kali** · 10-09-2002, 02:14 PM

*smirk* Well, I liked the theory on the different physics of the TMNT and DBZ universes. I'm sure the players will take the advice in mind when they get back to the RP.
