Battle for Earth (Aliens needed)

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Forge on Thu May 08, 2008 11:05 am

Earth is being invaded by the Chilognatha(AKA The Swarm): large Insectoid beings with long lithe bodies and eight arm/legs (each one ending in claw like hand, equally suited for detail work or use as a foot), covered with chitinous shells and wicked spikes. They're technology is biological in nature. They have a variety of biomechanical (meaning Biological parts used to build mechanical objects, not metal and organic mixed)mechs in various shapes and sizes, that are used for battle as well as various other biotech for every aspect of life.
(If you have any questions about what sort of things can be made Biologically simply ask.)

They are an intelligent race, formed into a caste system. The Worker class: maintenance, Piloting (of mechs and jets), and various other jobs; they are medium size(usually 3 meters long) and are suited to a variety of tasks and are rated 2nd in intelligence. The Warrior class: Hard Labor, Hand to hand combat, and weapons experts; they are largest in size (usually 4 meters long) with scorpion-like stingers on the end of their tails and claws that could crush a mans head, they are primarily suited towards combat related tasks and are rated 3rd in intelligence. The Controller class: Management, Research/Science, and Stealth/Recon mission; they are smallest in size (usually 2 meters long ) and in charge of all operations at the highest level, they are suited towards primarily intellectual and exploratory tasks and are 1st in intelligence and are the only class to have wings (large dragonfly wings) All Aliens can send telepathic messages to each other but Controllers can send louder messages and Workers have a longer range.

The Humans however are not to be left in the dust. They have been hard at work killing each other before the aliens got here. To show for all their hard work they have the latest mechs: Large bipedal metal structures, designed to imitate human movement. They are a fearsome combat force, able to use large scale versions of hand-held weapons. They humans also possess the usual human might, but for some reason when the aliens landed all nuclear weapons and power sources stopped working, something to do with a field given off by the mothership.

RULES (and posting format)

This is both an instant reply RP and a paragraph RP. My own hybrid style.
<Lines in the alien's language (yes they only have one because they're all from the same hive) goes in angle brackets rather than Quotes>
::Radio Communication goes like this::
the written word goes in bold
(out of character dialog goes like this)
This is to make posts more clear and make skimming easier.

Attacking an enemy is perfectly acceptable, but it is considered bad RP etiquette to attack an offline person. Friendly fire is also bad etiquette.

Remember you can declare an attack but you can't decide whether or not it lands. Only a GM of this thread or the person being attacked can decide if the hit lands. but don't make yourself invincible. You are not a god. This is a game, make it fun.

If you die, too bad, just make a new character. (you can however beg survival for the good of the plot but you have to make a good case.)

And remember the GMs have the last word.

if you have any questions send them to me or to Shanghai in a Private Message with the title BfE RP. I will be in charge of the aliens and Shanghai will be in charge of the humans.

*the Chilognathan Swarm detected the planet earth*
Chisgoria: <Aahhh, this planet looks promising, many resources to be had. This will make a good home for my Hive.>
*Calls for the fleet to alter course to head for the planet earth*

2 months later.

*A Human SETI project station detects the oddly shaped fleet of ships. At first the young watcher couldn't beleive what he was seeing.*
"Finally what we've been searching for, and not just one, but dozens of ships."
*the call went out, the media and the government made the expected scene, and the fleet silently approached the earth*

(This is the time to get things done before the Chillognathans attack)

Ok, now just adjust the punching drive, and here we go! The Finisher, K-PUNCH"! *Richard smiled, as he worked on the machines reaction time, the simulated attack blowing up the old Type 89 in one blow.* "Ok, so, I have the punch, the dynamic kicks, and the rifle, but I wonder if R&D will ever get the bugs worked out of the laser rifle...." [ic]that backpack just makes me a giant target![ic]
"But besides that, I got to make sure this machine works. Ok, Gernsback... Ride!"
*The massive machine took off from the hangar dock, it holding its shield and 45mm semi automatic cannon in its hands.* ::Base, I'm going to go on a attack run, test out this one's attacks, before returning home::

"Easy targets... 45mm select, aim, and fire" *The massive gun moved into the mech's hand, as a holographic display showed the first target.* "Die, and next" *Several holes appeared, as the casings from the weapon fell onto the ground, the shots each flying true* ::Base, could you send the flying targets, I want to test out my melee attacks now, the guns on this bad boy are fully up to specks...::

(Yeah, they are smaller than mobile suits (Gundams), bigger than Nightmare Frames (Code Geass))

*The machine thruster at first, Richard's motions magnified by the system of memory muscles, as he adjusted the fist's actuators.* "Hey Drone... have some Dividing Driver!" *The man jumped upwards, reaching the maximum jump height of the mass production mecha, before the knife, hidden in a leg compartment, popped out for the kill*. "This is east.." *He thought, as he stabbed the first UAV, slashing another as he landed down in a roll* "Hmm, have to deal with those fighters now..."

Ruby set up her small computer, plugging all of her essentials into the wall. She had been given a small desk in her living quarters, but would be spending most of her time with the other scientist in the command room. They all grouped there, yelling at each other and pointing out facts on their own computers, quickly scaring Ruby to her room. Her bed, though small, was comfortable. She sat down on it, smoothing the sheets. The military had everything ready for her and the other scientists, rooms already set aside for everything they would be studying. Ruby was enlisted by the military to help with any space related matter. And the current unidentified objects counted as space matter. All kinds of very important scientists were there too, and Ruby felt important in the presence of them. She unpacked, then gathered the courage to seek out the mess hall.

*The head of the mass production suit turned its eyes skyward, as inside, Richard focused his eyes on the flying drones, their sharp blades potentially devastating to his armor.* ::Command, This is Globalson, I will use the Fist based melee techniques now.:: "The techniques of Master... God I miss him" (thought the man, as he moved his fist backwards, the jump jets charging up ions and fuel for his powerful, yet unstable finisher...) *breathed deeply* "The fist, of the New Master of the East, and the power, of the Modern... into one! Bursting, Global... PUNCH!"

*He invoked the name of the attack, the built in attack macro causing the mecha to jump into the air, its fist collecting a small field of ions creating, a sort of localized EMP effect, scrambling the non hardened electronics of the drones.* "Then the Finisher!" *The man's attack hit the first drone dead on, cracking it into two, as he drove forward, hitting, three, then four of the drones.* (However, the machine, started to fall, the attack draining the primary battery reserves of the mech....)
