Well, I am. It's mostly a way for me to try out various rules for Wushu before making a more solid forum based RP here.

We'll be using the Twokinds IRC Channel, located here. The channel is #twokindsrp.

Story-wise, it's superheroes and villains team up against stuff. First bit will be against an alien invasion in a modern setting.

RULES:
1.Don't be an [censored].

yeah, that pretty much covers it.

Anyways, this will be for OOC information, like characters and how we can all get together. Right now I just want to see who's interested.

IN GAME RULES v1:
Wushu basic rules, as found here. You HAVE to have the traits listed in the character sheet. Furthermore, you can set one trait to 6 (master) but this will be offset by having one of the traits listed in this character sheet set to 0 (Insta-fail).

Code:
[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Appearance:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b]
[b]Race:[/b]

[b]Strength:[/b](Lets you hit stuff. Durh.)
[b]Speed:[/b](Lets you run away from stuff, do roof hopping, Run away from crash-landing
[b]Will:[/b] (Determines a few checks I'll be making that you DO NOT WANT to fail, is used for ALL mental combat, helps you resist/deal with mind rape, etc. Refusal to give up.)
[b]Perception:[/b] (Helps you find the weakness in whatever you're fighting;you can use this instead of a standard attack and if you succeed you will learn what they fail at.)
[b]Superpower:[/b] (Change the name to whatever it is. This is how strong your superpower is, and how good you are at coming up with new uses.)

Other than that, any trait you want above 2 should be listed. Good ideas are stealth, marksmanship, technical skill, etc, etc.

[b]Notable Items:[/b]

[b]History:[/b]


For this first time round we'll be using whatever trait is highest when in conflict, and I'll be doing the rolling.

The characters are members of Super Hero Monitoring Agency Team epsilon; they are tasked with fending off alien invasions and such. Be creative; A Jedi Catgirl would make sense.

Well, I'm willing to accept other ideas.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Messenger

And that is why I chose it-it comes with XP, so most people already have it.

I'm waiting for the dice to regain their feeling for me, right now, they despise me. Ex: I rolled a 1,2,1,1 against someone with one soldier on Risk last night, and he rolled a 6 like 5 times. :(

Kinda waiting for MOG to do something, since he's in the only serious fight.

that, and it's really meant for shorter campaigns, and this way I can try out a lot of different rules.

Hmm, alright then. Now, to start putting together the information for everybody...my windows messenger account uses the name below. Remember, this is not MSN messenger.

arachnion01@gmail.com.

Hmm... but Windows Messenger do connect to the same network as MSN (if you're not connecting to a private network that is)...

And there are alternate clients like Pidgin.

Exactly why I mentioned the difference.

Mostly, I'm using window messenger because it comes with windows XP, so everyone should have it already. If not, I'll be fine with switching to MSN.

...does this mean you're thinking about it?

Right; character creation rules have been added. Please include what the name used for adding to a contacts list is.
