Between my post and Serence. We will be ending this arc now. You can post any closer posts for your characters after that.

Then we all need to decide two things.
1) Time jump. Do you want one and how long? (the default idea will be one month later).
2) Dice rolls. Do you want them? and what do you think of the following:

The system for dice rolls will be simple and will be for certain events or when a character wants to try something they haven't or to see an outcome of something (like, roll the die to see if you get hit with the sword and have to sit out because the wound is to much, or get hit and are okay, or the sword misses, or the sword misses and you counter).

We can improve on this later.

I'd have to say one month time skip, no dice rolls.

Later tonight I am going to post some villains I was given as a suggestion. of course you are all free to spend some time figuring out what your characters did for a month. Which includes making up your own villains

I think Sirius and Matt would do more hanging out, but what he does to grow as a superhero? I don't know. I'd like to get him someone to train him in his powers and maybe give him the fire power.

I can help with that actually.
because I have a character that could teach him. Depends though on how you want him to find out, meet, and train with Edward.

Attention everyone!
The arc is over, we will be making the time jump and starting the next one soon. But for now I am going to give everyone some time to make any ending posts if they want to end their part in this arc. I will make the time jump probably by Wednesday unless everyone is good, then it will be a day from now.
Before that happens I will post here, and let you know how Arc 2 will go, changes etc. I wanted you guys to have fun, so there will be a month of time for your characters, you guys can make some back story of whats going on for them during that time. This includes making characters and villains for them to meet (if you make up a villain, let me know).

Also one last thing, my characters last names were changed to Stephens. Just because Smith was what I was using as a placeholder and didn't know until now what their last names would be.

Do you mind if a few of us do quick little epilogue things first? There are a few things left unresolved.
Ghosts previous plans to meet with her contact later that day for example. (kinda got pushed to the side earlier...)

Well, first i've got to try and remember who came up with Prof. Ackerman. (I Prefer not talking to myself if possible. That was the whole point of getting someone else to create the NPC.)

I'll try to get an ending post before you time skip. if I can't, I'll just maybe tack it onto my opening post for the next day along with whatever Chris has done in the skipped time.

Its okay that you forgot. It's going to be a while for that plan to work anyway really. I might send you a pm later tonight (got to go drive people around or I would do it right now). We can see what can be done.

ok I think someone is waiting on someone else, and quite possibly, I'm the one making everyone waiting considering how inactive I am these days, so first, sorry about that, the lazy force is rather strong in this fox.

Second, can I have some info about that NPC I just took on ? because I think Buster might be waiting on me on that one.

Third since this arc is sort of ended, I just would like to make a sort of role call here about the ending post:
- Brent is very busy with his school right now, so I think he told us he'll put off posting til his starting post the next arc/day and combine the 2 into one, so we don't need to wait for him on that.
- I think Civ made his ending post
- Maybe iron panda did too? His characters went away from the building
- My character is out cold, so I wrote myself into a semi-dead end, need to fix that
- I think Buster is waiting on the scientist NPC to make a respond before the end
- I think Neon Ice Wings is sort of popping in and out ? I read on some other RP thread that he/she just came back and is catching up I think, soo I don't know about that.
- Neonshot, Hiat, mickey, have you guys posted a closing post yet ?

My characters are done for the most part.

and as for yours serence, you could have the medics showing up, or from what I know of your character. Have a dream bit? maybe foreshadowing?

Yeah, nobody's stepping up, so safe to assume npc control is falling to you two...

----------
Reposting what deske, MrNeonShot & I made earlier in the thread:

Name: Harvey "Tron" Ackerman.
Creator: Deske
Species: Human, South Asian / Caucasian Mix
Occupation: IT Professor for C.R. University

Side Occupation: Closed Door Tech Creator / Distributor
Power: Technokinesis and a dabbling of generic hacking know-how.
Personality: Introverted, but a likable man.

for backstory, Its who Ghost turns to when she needs software/hardware for encrypted digital communication with her clients, payment transfer masking, and mods for her weapon. These are things she lacks the tech or know-how to do herself, so she needs him to do it for her.

In this case, she wants something that can analyze handwriting, and a police database back-door. She took mr. Fox getting away personally, and wants to track him down via the note. Setting up a meeting and requesting the hardware software to analyze what she's bringing in was already implied in a post i made pre-timeskip#1.

Additionally she now has the earpiece, and has gotten a good look at his face as well, so looking for pictures, or tracing the frequency are also options. Albeit ones she knows are time-sensitive, given she heard the foxes talking about disposing of and replacing their earpieces.

-------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: on an unrelated note, i've tried to draw Ghost's true form about four times now, and each time she gets steadily more mix'n'match... may as well quit while i'm behind.

Okay so guys, I do want to get the ball rolling on arc two. I would like it to be this Friday. So I'm going to send some messages when I get up later. See what we can do for closing anything out. If anything we can have you guys close arc one while starting arc two.
Up to you all though

So, over the last two days I might have had 8 hours of sleep.
Not that this matters much here. But I am just saying.

Anyway, we seem pretty wrapped up. not much else to do, people are waiting for Arc 2 to start so they can join and it would be nice to get that ball rolling.
So here is how this will happen, the arc is going to start with my opening post so:
We will be time jumping 1 month. It will be Nov 18, year: 2036.

IF you are not fully done closing or ending your character, you are free to end it in your next post then separate the post in some visible way to indicate you have time jumped. Unfortunately this means that you may have to sum up anything from act 1 for your character due to the time jump. I hate asking this of anyone, but due to the need to move forward we will need to do this.
The following are bits of information [refer to the main OOC post for story updates as time goes on, unless I have a limit on words then I will link a post with information].
For now here are some things I want to mention:

>For now, all dice rolls are still suspended. I am not sure when the mechanic will return.

>Arc 2 will be a bit longer, actually we are going to call it chapter two. It will be split into three separate parts (or acts). The third act will end with a boss fight that will require everyone in some way to partake (spoilers)

>if you have any questions, remember to message me here or on skype.

>Edit: I forgot; Act 1 will consist of different crimes and events around town. These will be rapid and should be pretty quick and easy to deal with. but have your characters keep an eye out. not all of these crimes are random. Some are very pre-meditated.

Which would be pretty much what would happen if Edward had not edited the footage to keep the vigilantes identities a secret and their escapes (he is rich and smart enough to do that and keep it quiet).

Also I had some ideas I want to try. Micro jumping a few hours at some point, so we can have a night scene later. it wouldn't happen just yet. but what do you all think?
