Thanks to MechMaster of the Loonatics Unleased Online forums, we have a very good character-creating system. What follows is more or less the whole scheme of things to follow when creating a character (a 'file') in this board.
Please bear in mind that you cannot fight against your enemies alone. The maximum amount of roleplayers per team is eight.
I know it seems crazy, but you can take your time in figuring this stuff out.
Please send all characters ('files') to an admin/moderator for checking and approval. - In order to create a character, you must start with a blank template.
Description: Who is he/she, and why did she join the faction they are in.
Powers (Maximum: 3): These provide special bonuses to your stats (+25 to any 2 stats).
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Weapons (if appliciable): If your powers happen to get stolen by someone, equip these to blow away the opposition (Maximum: 2).
80 Bonus Points (BP) Remaining...
You can create your character using this template, but you can only distribute 80 points (BP) among all your skills.
Individual Strength (IND STR): This is on a scale of 1 to 100, based on the character's powers and individual abilities. Determines how much damage he/she will dish out to the opposing team if that character's team wins, usually in a loss of HP. That's based on how severe the defeat is.
Individual Intelligence (IND INT): Scale of 1 to 100, based on how smart the character is. The lower this stat is, the more likely that character is to make bad decisions that prove detrimental to the whole team.
Individual Willpower (IND WIL): Scale of 1 to 100, based on how resistant the character is to mind control. It also determines how quickly his EP (Energy Points) recharges (EP is WIL x5); EP is used when a character uses his/her powers. Normal Recharge (50 WIL): 50 EP/day. Super Recharge (75 WIL): 75 EP/day. Hyper Recharge (100 WIL): 100 EP/day. The maximum EP anyone can have is 500.
Individual Speed (IND SPD): 1-100. How fast the character is. Also determines how good he/she is at scouting and reporting enemy positions to his team.
Individual Agility (IND AGL): 1-100. How high a character can jump. Good for sniping on top of buildings with long-range powers or weapons.
Individual Endurance (IND END): 1-100. How much HP a character has (HP is END x5) and how fast it recovers. Max HP anyone can have: 500. Normal Recharge (50 END): 50 HP/day. Super Recharge (75 END): 75 HP/day. Hyper Recharge (100 WIL): 100 HP/day.
Individual Leadership/Personality (IND PER): Determines if a character is able to lead his team into battle. For the Loonatics: the leadership in this team goes to the one with the most Personality. For Optimatus' Legion: the leadership in this team goes to the lowest Personality.
You can also give traits to your character to make him/her stronger or weaker. (Get your calculator!) For every weakness given to a character (be realistic please), you gain 10 extra points to use for your character's stats. For every strength you give, you spend 10 points from your reservoir of Bonus Points. Allocate these points until none are remaining. Max Weaknesses: 5. Max Strengths: 5. - 1. NO GOD-LIKE POWERS. 2. BE REALISTIC.
