Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

I'll decide that. And I don't need suggestions, thank you kindly.

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

Well, am I at least in the Line?

[kodster]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

If you continue to be annoying like this, I'm not going to consider you for ANYTHING. Have some god damn freakin' PATIENCE, or else I will lose my own, double quick.

And here's a suggestion from me: stop bloody posting everytime someone else posts. Almost every second post I've seen recently on Fanfic happens to be your own. You don't have to reply in every bloody topic, you know. Things progress slowly this time of year. I can't believe how many times you need to be told this.

Now please allow me to continue this. At my own pace, that is. Thank you. :P

[kodster]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

Pace? Pfft, pace is overrated. I'm going to make a major summary update here, just so everybody knows what's gone on and what's happening at the moment...

SUMMARY OF EVENTS SO FAR...

The heroes (Martijn, Matty, Steve, Frank, Alex, and Chris) meet Kody, Kody fills them in what's happened (The Watcher (ref) gone haywire due to someone nicking his entire identity) and requests that they find six objects known as titanium gears. They accept. Kody fuses the heroes with their selected machines:

Martijn = Flick of the Wrist
Matty = Push Me Pull You
Steve = Clawdius Decimus Murderous
Frank = Never-Seen-Before-Fic-Robot-X
Alex = Tengu VII
Chris = Die-Ceratops Re-Invertus

...and sends them to Ohmi Bot-fu Kingdom first; they are immediately attacked by a horde but easily dispatch them. Turning away from Ohmi at first, they meet up with a renegade ninja, Taki, who is actually in league with Kody, and an ally, Tsunami. Tsunami joins after being rescued from a sentry sent by the evil emperor. Taki joins the party after Frank defeats her in a one-on-one duel, proclaiming he has 'honor'. Afterwards, they travel to the city, and ultimately bring down the corrupted Fu-Ma empire ruled by emperor Geki, who had a titanium gear in his possession, making him all powerful. Laying the smackdown on Geki, and acquiring the first titanium gear, they head back to meet Kody, who smiles and then sends them off to The Gaul Pit next, Taki and Tsunami included. Landing in the middle of Lutetia, they encounter Joey and Paul (who are Nidhogg and Nitro-Gene 4.0, respectively), who are in pursuit of a traitor, Tira. They catch her but ultimately she is driven out of their clutches by a assault from an Roman-ic empire of robots, Marcus Ignutus being their head officer. Half of the entire group (Joey, Steve, Alex, and Frank, plus Tsunami) and brought to the cellar prisons while the rest escape, and try to pursue Tira and fail, but get the attention of gaulish robots, Asterix and Obelix. After buying some items from a merchant, they are willingly taken to their own Gaulish village and try to garner info from the chief, Vitalstatistix. Meanwhile, the imprisoned group manage to break free after repairing a weakened prisoner in their same cell, Mechavore. They break into the open and meet Marcus Ignutus and his battalion again, only Marcus' battalion is much smaller and they are able to crush him. They escape and meet Tira again, who startlingly lays a beating on them until being subdued. They stumble into Lutetia, and find some health-restoring items that heal their wounds against Marcus' battalion, and Tira. Then they interrogate Tira, with little success until Alex gets really...psychotic, himself, and Tira breaks down. They are a bit perturbed to hear there's a Master ordering her around. Just as they are deciding what to do with her, Martijn and the others enter the village and the entire team is reformed, with a Gaulish army at their service. The last thing that happens is Mechavore guarding Tira and Joey thinking aloud to raise the villagers to attack the Romans, but now he's not sure if they sure just attack and leave the villagers alone, or get their help...

So there you have it. You've been brought up to speed, and Joey already has tactics in. The choice before you is: attack the Roman empire straight away by yourselves, or call on the villagers of Lutetia to help. Which will it be?

[pcbore]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

I'm not too proud to go looking for help before attacking an entire army

[majinb]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

ermz... ermz... ermz... Im pondering here, some help of the villagers is not bad, its good even, BUT, isnt it a bit of a waste to dedicate our entire team of 8, plus all the forces we already have on our side, to that task? How about we dedicate 2 of us to the task of rallying the villagers, I firmly believe between the 6 of us we have left, and Tsunami, and Taki, and the Gaulish army, we have enough power to put up a good fight, although maybe a defensive one. If at some point our 2 remaining team members and the forces they rallied come to aid us, we can go on the offense and turn the tide in our favour. The reason Id like 2 of our party for this job is so that, when the villagers are unwilling to help, 1 can report this to us and the other can continue convincing them.

And erm... if this village really is a random little village, I doubt every inhabitant robot will be able to fight porperly. Asking for everyone to fight along us, including maybe the elderly and the infants, may not gather much goodwill, and we dont really need them either.

[kodster]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

Right, waitin' for Steve and Alex to post tactics since I bugged them on MSN.

[steven_mcg]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

I say we see if we can rile up the villagers into a revolution and storm to war. If not, we can ask to find someone who will help us.

Given Clawdius' Roman background, though, I'm not entirely sure that I'd be the best one to talk to the villagers.

[majinb]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

well Im willing to give talking to the villagers a go if you need me to do that, perhaps take Tsunami with me to help me out while the rest attack the Romans, that is, if you guys like my tactic :O

[kodster]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

Meh, Alex had his time. :P And Marti and Steve put forth some good suggestions, soooo...THIS SHALL BE IN THE PROCESS OF...

continuing!!!

Well? What do you think? said Nidhogg impatiently.

I daresay your threat is breaking the barrier that is foolishness, said Flick, but there'll be no need for that, as I agree with the idea.

Nitro-Gene looked positively delighted when Clawdius added, As do I.

However, said Flick, we shouldn't leave this to everyone, so Joey, you can go and lead the attack, if you wish.

You mean, you're still going to...? asked Taki.

Let the attack go ahead? Of course! said Flick. But we'll dedicate 2 of us to the task of rallying villagers who are fit to come to our aid, lest it fall ill in Rome. For this I shall stay behind. Who else will?

The group was silent, and made no answer for a long time. At long last there came a grunt from Tsunami. Me.

And there are no objections?

Again, there was no answer.

Very well, off with you! barked Flick. We'll get this lot herded up for you within a few hours, even less.

Heh, looks like I can have my cake and eat it too, chuckled NSBFR-X.

Well to be honest I was all for attacking straight-away, myself, simpered Nidhogg. But I personally thought that was a good idea.

I do feel important now, beamed Nitro-Gene.

Hope you know what you're doing... muttered Taki.

Course we do, retorted Tengu. We're off to give the empire a right good kick up the -

All right, let's goooooo!!! shouted Die-Ceratops, drowning out Tengu; the army roared away along the path back to Rome, leaving Flick, Tsunami, and Mechavore behind.

You sure you can keep whats-her-face in there? questioned Flick.

Puh-lease, I eat spare parts for breakfast, yawned Mechavore.

If that pleases you... Tsunami then turned to Flick. So, what's the plan?

Plan? What plan? Just get this lot gathered up, we need to speak with them, answered Flick.

----

Army

The force set off down the path from Lutetia to Rome in high spirits. The joy of battle was upon the Gauls, and they obssessed over the thought of paying back the cruelty Caesar and the Romans had shown to them. Alone of the Gauls, Asterix and Obelix were silent; Obelix possibly because he was thinking about roast boar (How...? said Nidhogg.), but Asterix was very quiet, most unlike himself. NSBFR-X seemed to notice.

Why so serious? inquired NSBFR-X, earning a groan from Tengu for the glaringly obvious reference.

Well... Asterix's mustache ornament twitched. Normally I would be as raucous as my fellows here, but still, it is after all Caesar himself, even our ancestor Vercingetorix could not defy him. He is merciless, that pompous dictator.

He doesn't know about us, however, piped up Nitro-Gene. We're heroes, we can take whatever he can dish at us, expected or no.

U-uh...Paul... stuttered PMPY. You just had to say that...

What do you mean 'I had to s-'... Nitro-Gene stopped talking. He seemed to have been lost for words.

Soldiers were coming up the path. Too many to avoid, and unassailable by appearance. Whether they had been ordered to stomp Lutetia into the ground it stood upon, or to retrieve the prisoners, they were grim to look upon, and showed no signs of emotion (though that may have been due to the fact that you can't read a robot's 'expression'). The Gauls started muttering to each other as the Roman infantry kept approaching. Then behind them, with a shock, the heroes could see mechanisms. Trebuchets. Giant, wooden-crafted, steel-panelled, and filled with boulders and large pieces of shrapnel. They were being hauled along by large knight-like robots with claws and lances. The muttering of the Gauls turned into gasps as the Gauls themselves beheld these destructive projectile hurlers. At last the army of Romans stopped. They had not surrounded their enemies, yet the commanders were very near Nidhogg and Tengu, who were in front. Nidhogg stood his ground.

By order of Gaius Julius Caesar, shouted one of the sentries. The Gaulish rebellion is hereby ordered to disband, return to their own village, and never set forth again unless Caesar wills it to be. Furthermore, the Gauls will take oaths never to assail Caesar the great again, in arms, open or secret. The Gaulish village itself shall be triutary to Caesar, and the remaining inhabitants shall bear no arms, but have leave to govern their own affairs. But for the loss of several of his soldiers, Caesar demands retribution; thus the Gauls shalt pay what is due.

This ominous pronouncement held sway over the allied army for some time. The silence seemed to hold them in its claw...then it was broken. Asterix was draining something from a vial. It looked like a potion. It was the *glug glug glug* that attracted stares. Asterix finished it down, let out a satisfied ahhhh..., then set forth until he was in front of one of the commanders, who snarled down at him, but Asterix did not flinch.

By Toutatis! This Caesar has dictated our poor village long enough! We demand freedom! And we shall make it so! With that reply, Asterix slammed into the commander, and by some sort of brute force, or just plain luck, the commander was sent flying back into the middle ranks of his army, landing on a few of them was an almighty CRASH, which was taken by the infantry as a great insult. They roared and charged.

Come, my friends, and my brothers! said Vitalstatistix. Let us drink to our battle!

With that, he tossed vials to the heroes. What's this? asked Nitro-Gene.

The secret of our strength, answered the chief. I only use it in extreme circumstances; it is a magic potion made by our druid, Getafix. It will help you temporarily. Drink, drink it up while you can! He drained his own vial and rallied his troops as they did the same. The heroes looked at each other.

Bottoms up, they said to each other, and drained their vials. For a second they felt nothing...then...

Slowly, but surely, it came. It was a warm feeling...it stole through every inch of them, bestowing upon them a power they did not recognize. But somehow they knew it had strengthed them to beyond belief. They felt exhilerated.

Oh yeah...let's give 'em hell, guys! roared Nidhogg, making a sudden burst towards the army of Romans. CHAAAAAARGE!!!

Flick of the Wrist, Tsunami, and Mechavore

Well...hi, stammered Flick. Uh...I guess you're wondering why I called you all here...

You're ruddy wel' right! barked a grubby-looking merchant, not the one from before. What th'bloody 'ell you call us 'ere for?

Well, you see...er... Flick stammered. We need - no, we beg you many of you to come fight...the Romans, with us...

There was an outbreak of laughter. Martijn turned red with frustration, though he was glad no one could see behind Flick's exterior armour. The plan clearly wasn't going as well as he had hoped.

Right! howled an innkeeper. How about that? 'Right on, lads, let's just barge straight in and ask for our cup of sugar!' You should be the next village fool, soon!

SHUT IT! roared a voice. The villagers went deathly quiet. Flick turned to see who had made the outburst, and saw Mechavore there. Her disc was spinning and it was a sign that she was very angry indeed.

Hey, aren't you supposed to be guarding that Tira? demanded Flick.

Tsunami has agreed to switch places for the time being, replied Mechavore irritably. And these...fellows aren't making me a happy lady at the moment.

Well what th'ell d'you 'spect us t'do? roared the grubby merchant. 'Ere thousands 'pon thousands times stronger than us! Yer mad!

Well look at it this way, said Flick. You can either die being prisoners, or die on the battlefield. How's that?

It's your fault we're going to be prisoners, grunted a metallurgist. The Romans will mop up your small force and then punish us! We'll die horribly, either way. Is that fair to you?

That's kinda what I just said, sighed Flick. But Mechavore had had enough.

Listen! she growled. You can either fight for your freedom, and die free if it comes to that, or you can die in servitude and live long years of torment before you die. Believe me, I've lived in torment. What say you to that?!

I would sooner slay myself, snorted the innkeeper. And you lived in captivity? By God's hand, I'd believe fire can turn to ice before I believed you were incarcerated.

Mechavore snarled, and would have gave the innkeeper a hefty blow to the flank, had Flick not stopped her. We're not the enemy, remember? hissed Flick. Don't take things so personally.

If you do not wish to fight for us, and regain freedom, then that is your own decision. However, added Flick. Victory or defeat may be decided by a choice few. Those few could potentially be you. If you do not aid us, surely defeat will be upon us, and yourselves later on. Remember that. He turned away, to much muttering from the crowd behind.

All right Mechie...or may I call you that?

You may not, Mechavore seethed.

Fine, fine, keep your skirts on. You sure Tsunami can -

I am well, called a voice to their left; Tsunami seemed to be almost grinning. Whatever has gone on?

Well the plan of Paul's failed, grumbled Flick. But I guess we're heroes, and we're destined to do this sorta thing.

Whatever trace of a grin there was, it faded from Tsunami instantly. What can we do without others keeping faith in us? he asked despairingly.

We do what we do, answered Flick. And that is to go aid the others. We must go.

Right, said Mechavore. But I want to pay them back -

Excuse me, growled Tsunami. But who will look out for this little fool? He gave the shack holding Tira a nudge.

You will, Mechavore snapped. I want revenge and I won't be denied.

I want to help as well! shouted Tsunami. And if you'll remember, I got locked in there as well.

Not as long as I was, growled the blimpbot.

Guys, guys, what's going on? cried Flick. I thought we were supposed to helping the others, not fighting amongst ourselves!

We need to figure out who'll guard that idiot in here, that's what, replied Tsunami. And she refuses to, he added angrily, turning to face Mechavore, who looked murderous.

Whoa whoa whoa, that's it? said Flick. Well we need to think of something, then, we can't go off without making sure she's guarded. After all, the walls of a prison are useless without someone to guard them.

True, that, sighed Tsunami. Well, we'll let you decide.

Wait, m-me? stammered Flick.

Well, I want Mechavore to guard Tira, but she wants me to guard Tira, so your vote is a tie-breaker, replied Tsunami. Unless you can think of something else.

Hrmz... Flick turned away; inside, Martijn began to think...

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

Having read the Asterix comics myself, I can personally guarantee that short of deliberately shedding our armour and handing the centurions an illustrated guide on robot dismemberment, and then driving very very slowly towards them, there is absolutely no way in the world that it is possible to lose this one.

Still, if at all possible grab some top-ups of that potion, and then basically just attack in whatever manner happens to come to mind, rather aggressively, and this should be done in no time.

[steven_mcg]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

OK, it's big battle time - and I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing.

Given that my main weapon, the crushing arm, is a slow mover, I suggest the quicker bots tackle the grunts while I try and take a bite out of the Centurians. They're big, but far fewer in number. With my magical enhancements (whatever they may be) and my low, low front against their high ground clearance, I should be able to take a couple out with some luck, or at least damage them enough for the heavy hitters to finish off.

To war!

[majinb]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

a private quest!

sorry, need more time to make up my mind on this one :P

[kodster]

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

I won't receive half the tactics I need and since I already have over half of the ones I'm going to get... :P

continuing...

It was pandemonium.

The party of Heroes and Gauls strode every which way, sending Roman forces flying. No matter how hard the Romans tried, they simply could not counter the attacks, and soon enough, all the Romans were strewn across the field.

Or so they assumed, until a cry from Asterix roused them. Looking around, they saw that more soldiers were marching up around them. They were trapped, and soon, ten times and more than ten times that of the forces they had already fought had ringed them in a sea of enemies.

25,000...

But it mattered not. Though entirely and absurdly outnumbered, the forces fought on, and just when the magic potion was starting to wear off, they had reduced the entire Roman army to scraps.

The Gaulish army cheered. Not one of them was even lightly damaged, and they began to dance about in celebration. At least until Tengu stopped them.

Uh, I don't think we've truly won yet, he called. It seems as though we'll have to go straight into Rome and defeat Caesar himself.

The Gauls stopped cheering immediately. They looked worried.

What? What's wrong? asked Nitro-Gene.

His...his forces may be weak, but Caesar himself... Vitalstatistix muttered. He conquered our mighty ancestor, Vercingetorix. I am but a tithe of Vercingetorix's ancient strength.

We're heroes, said Nitro-Gene. We're destined to conquer, as you put it, all that is evil.

I'd sadly have to agree with Paul there, supplied Nidhogg. We had put some mighty emperor out of his misery, so Caesar may not be such a threat.

All the same, I bid you be careful, replied the Gaul chief. I do not think any of our forces could aid you; he is vicious.

You're not going to come aid us? demanded Clawdius.

No. I will not. However, I will send Asterix and Obelix to. They have met Caesar before, and have barely restrained his wrath. Also... Vitalstatistix submitted the Titanium Gear he withheld to Asterix. Keep this with you: if by any luck Caesar falls, give this to them. And only use it in dire need, if such need should arise.

Understood, O Chief Vitalstatistix, Asterix turned to the Heroes, with his friend Obelix at his side. Well, friends, to Rome we go!

All right, let's go kick some Roman arse, smirked Tengu.

And so they continued along the path that would take them to Rome...

----

At long last, they found the gates, just as Alex, Frank, Steve, and Joey had before. The path to the dungeons was still there, but boarded up rather clumsily. The two guards outside the gate were also still there, but looking nervous at the sight of Asterix and Obelix.

B-by order of G-Gaius J-Julius C-C-Caesar, none sh-shall pa - AGH!

Move aside, growled Asterix, easily knocking the guard aside, while Obelix dealt such a blow to the other that its entire roof caved in, rendering it immobile.

Crikey, muttered NSBFR-X.

They moved past the gates, into the city which seemed deserted, entering almost immediately into a majestic cylindrical building. Inside was a wide chamber, leading into a hallway not unlike those of the dungeons, but filled at the sides with weapons racked, showcasing axes, discs, spears, spikes, scythes, and other nasty weaponry.

It is awfully quiet... whispered Taki. Even I cannot penetrate the silence.

Yeah, I wondered if we'd be facing more enemies... muttered Nitro-Gene.

You'll soon find out, said Nidhogg. I do hear something, and it's coming from up ahead...

That would be the Colosseum, replied Asterix. We have been here before, Obelix and I. We'll be out in the -

Open.

It was Clawdius who spoke and Clawdius who was first to be utterly amazed. It was a huge, huge circular arena. Great walls grew to marvelous heights around them. Stands were erected above the walls, from which came much jeering and hissing. Above and in front of the heroes, however, was a grand podium. Upon it, his beak upturned, was...

Caesar, Asterix growled.

Impressive, was the first word uttered. You vandals do fail to disappoint, don't you? I never would have dreamed my entire army would have bowed to your powers or chance and luck. Such sport is pleasurable to me.

Why are you so keen on imprisoning the Gauls? snarled NSBFR-X.

Gauls? laughed the dictator. Yes yes yes, the Gauls do seem the mightier, do they not? They will make fine servants. Now, a rebellion which thou fools instigated? That will not do at all.

We're coming up there and beating down your cowardly arse, and you're going to live with it, or not, barked Nidhogg.

Is that so? mused Caesar, with mock surprise. Unfortunately, I have no intention of dueling with any of you. Combat with such volatile weaklings is but a waste of my time. Fortunately, he laughed grimly, there are some of my men and creatures who do have time to kill.

He made a clicking noise, and suddenly, several platforms around the heroes vanished below the surface.

What's this all about?! yowled Die-Ceratops.

You really are meddlesome pests, drawled Caesar, but it is time to know your place. He backed away a few feet and settled down to watch the demise of his enemies...

Coward! shouted Nitro-Gene. Get back over here! I'll -

Paul, interrupted Nidhogg, I think we had best turn our attention to what's about to attack us.

And Joey was dead right. The platforms were indeed rising again, but they were not vacant. Hunting beasts and stocky warriors were occupying them, huger than life itself.

You call that a challenge? laughed Asterix, outwardly masking his concern. By Toutatis, Caesar, you have lost your touch.

We shall see, won't we, Gaul? replied Caesar with another unpleasant chuckle. Gladiators, show them no mercy!

The hunting beasts and warriors charged the heroes...

Flick of the Wrist, Tsunami, and Mechavore

Well? demanded Mechavore.

I say...that I will guard Tira, said Flick.

WHAT?! the two realies cried in unison.

And it'll be staying that way, barked Flick, until the battle is won. Now go and help the others.

But -

Seriously, do you want to waste your time bickering? GO!

Mechavore and Tsunami turned to each other, back to Flick, and then turned and made off. Flick sighed and went to the hovel.

What are you doing with that house, if I may ask? asked a random villager as Flick sighed again loudly.

Keeping guard over some weirdo in here, she's not herself, replied Flick.

What do you mean, not 'herself'? questioned the villager.

I don't know, said Flick irritably - what did it matter? She's been violent to us and it seems like she's not supposed to be so -

BANG.

Flick had nearly a split second to react and get out of the way before something massive, something monumental collided with the hovel and sheared it completely off its foundations and sent it flying right past the spot where Flick was, and into Lutetia's main square. Commoners screamed and ran in random directions.

Master...you came for me... whispered Tira.

Wha - WHAT THE... Martijn gasped.

The robot that was before Flick of the Wrist was unlike anything he had ever encountered before; it towered above him, easily double his height; it sported massive blades and seemed to be triangular in shape, at least, if you looked at it from above. But what truly alarmed Flick was the seemingly uncontainable amounts of dark energy it exuded.

How...how the hell am I supposed to fight THIS thing?!? thought Martijn in a panic.

Then the robot before him spoke; it sounded almost demonic, yet something was familiar about it...

Heh. Lookie here. They split up and leave themselves open. How pathetically predictable. I guess it's no wonder with heroes like you, roaming around and sticking your noses in my affairs. I guess he put you all up to it. Oh well. I'll destroy him as well when the time comes.

What are you saying?! yelled Flick.

I'm saying that you're about to become spare parts, Dutchie. The robot began to spin, and within seconds the huge robot was nothing but a blur; Tira got out of the way, in great anticipation of Flick's destruction despite her severely weakened state. Flick was horrified; he'd left himself vulnerable to attack...he didn't know what to do.

Who could this monster be? Obviously Tira's master, but how did he know Flick was a hero? And who's the he this monster's talking about? Fighting it seems impossible; talking to it is vain. Perhaps cowardice is not such a bad idea at this point...whatever you do, it better be quick, Martijn!

Re: Team Zlayerz RPG: Identity Theft!

I'll take Gladiator Gamma.... nice s3 exposed hypnodisc wheels to rip off or buckle, and following that go in to help whomever needs the most help or to fight whoever seems easiest to finish off.

Not going down to some punk robots like these, thats for sure. I'll set everyone else decide what to do with the items.
