Power Rangers: Galactic Knights (power rangers edge20 system, interest check)

[Praxis]

From the looks of this thread, Black and Pink.

I'm out so Red is back in play.

[Dragongoddess]

Keeping an eye on this in case spots open up.

[Avernale]

If this is still on, then I think I may need to tweak my backstory/influences a bit.  My character's choice of profession isn't as funny to me as it was at the time.  And probably stereotypical?

Keeping an eye on this in case spots open up.

Going by what I'm seeing in this thread, and as of the post immediately before yours:

Red: ~OPEN!~
Black: Idej
Blue: Steir
Green: Yukina
Pink: Avernale (That's me!)
Yellow: JoanieSappho

Seeing as Black and Red would have been my preferences anyways, I'd love to make a character sheet, then, if anyone could share the not so expensive versions of the material people mentioned earlier.

[Silvered Sutures]

Was gonna grab red but got ninja go'd xD
Shame Jump Through Time isn't out yet so we can have Orange and Purple

[ShadowFox89]

Sorry guys, I've had super low mental energy the last couple of weeks. I'll get up the setting info and get cracking on this again once writing doesn't feel like climbing a mountain.

[ShadowFox89]

Added some information on Arcadios to the first post.

Sound off, who do I still have interested in this?

[Dragongoddess]

I'm still interested, but I can't afford to buy the rulebook so if anything can be done about that, I'm in.

[Silvered Sutures]

Interested if any spots are open, but as far as I understand it there are none. I do have the book however.

[Steir]

I'm still here~

[Yukina]

I'm still here. :)

[Silvered Sutures]

Well, it seems the Red Ranger spot is still technically open so, if I may...

Name: Lyxe of Triforia
Pronouns: They/Them
Origin: Tragic
Role: Red, Black
Influence: Martial Artist, Not From Around Here, Survivor
Character Age: 26

Background: Lyxe was born with an indistinct gender, possessing the primary sexual characteristics typically expected of both male and female, and was seen as an abnormality from birth. Many assumed that – with twins being a rarity among Triforians – perhaps they had conjoined in the womb with their brother or sister, seeing as Triforians are typically split in three and can possess three minds. This was never revealed with certainty however, and with the ongoing attacks of the Varox on Triforia, there wasn't much time to analyze the child. Adding to this the constant state of panic of adults and the other children being sequestered to their homes for their safety, Lyxe was left with precious little attention, care, or supervision, largely raised by their home A.I. which even ultimately had to baptize them when their parents died in the war efforts. Dreading the child would be taken by the invading forces, the A.I. deemed it preferable to send them off into the wilds of their home planet, forcing them to fend for themselves in the wilds of Triforia from their tender age.

With their main form of socialization being interactions with animals – primarily hunting them for food – and running away from Varox invaders, it was an understatement to claim that by their teens Lyxe had absolutely no idea how to behave like a regular person ought; having developed a more primal sense of surroundings and a healthy degree of cautiousness when meeting strangers from an early age. At one point however, even that was insufficient to escape the Varox, but by pure chance they managed to commandeer the ship upon which they'd been taken and flew it to the first planet that looked outside of the reach of their foes; Arcadios. As fate would have it; the ship crashed in the backyard pond of a martial artist's secluded dojo.

The martial arts master with whom she took residence was a bit of a hermit, but deemed it her duty to take care of this wild teenager, raising Lyxe as though her own pupil, teaching them the art of Taekwondo and what she could teach them of etiquette, social norms, and basic education. Through their time together, this woman – a human named Hwa-Cha Yeung Sook – was the closest thing to a maternal figure they'd had the luxury of experiencing, and Lyxe did their best to imbibe their teachings, going out of their way to helping those in situations of misfortune, honing their body to the best of their ability, and keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings at all times. It was thus a shock, of course, when Hwa-Cha died of old age less than a decade after they've met, facing Lyxe with the reality that everyone they will ever meet – perhaps a bit late in their life for learning this – no matter on how peaceful a world, would eventually come to die. 

Personality: As a Triforian, Lyxe's personality has three sides which occasionally split into separate entities named after her predominant qualities; Bravery, Zeal, and Joy (pictured top to bottom, with Bravery also being her "true" appearance). On the side of Bravery; they like fighting, particularly when given a good reason, especially to protect others, and dislike using under-handed methods. Where Zeal is concerned; they love challenges, always trying to better themselves and learn more about who they are deep down through these trials, hating the very idea of taking shortcuts. On the end of Joy; they simply like having fun, and sharing that fun with others – particularly the kind of fun that is carnal in nature – and dislike taking advantage of others or seeing their friends unhappy. 

Physical Description: Lyxe stands at an impressive 6'6" with a thin, model-like build from the waist up, and long, thick, powerful legs and hindquarters resulting from a kick-centric martial arts training which they have been performing in excess. Alongside this, they have a mane of wavy black hair reaching down to the bottom of their rib cage, with a magenta under-layer which matches their unusual eye color. Their pale skin sports tattoos of black and red ink picturing dragons running up and down the length of their arms, and they possesses a series of piercing on their left ear that they switch on a daily basis. Despite their lithe upper body, they have a rather generous chest and the back muscles to prevent it from being a hindrance to their posture. As outlined above they possess both gender's reproductive organs and – self-conscious about this – they prefer to wear thick, baggy pants or layered half skirts to cover their groin.

Character Ons/Offs: Rather open-minded about sexuality as a whole, preference towards dominating/manhandling partners in standing positions.

Smut levels: Whatever the majority agrees upon.

Still interested.  I might still want to tinker with Marion's profile a bit.

[JoanieSappho]

Oh, and yeah, still here.

[ShadowFox89]

Silvered - Lyx - Red
Yukina- Pyewacket- Green
Steir- Theta 3 - Blue
Joanie- Sols - Yellow
Avernale- Marion- Pink

Am I missing anyone?

[Silvered Sutures]

Idej was the black ranger IIRC, though they never did finish their character now that I think about it...

[Avernale]

The game will take place primarily on Arcadios. I will be doing a full writeup of the world later on, but the cliffnotes is that Arcadios is a post-scarcity world that is seen as both a symbol of peace and a myth by much of the galaxy.

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

Arcadios is connected to the rest of the galaxy through intermediaries. Those the Knights view as trustworthy are escorted through the nebula of infant stars that Arcadios is hidden within, the exotic particle waves of the nebula keeping the planet concealed.

Contact with humanity first came about around 15 years ago. An early exploration project by the United Federation of Earth attempted a hyper-jump. The explorers crashed into Elis, one of the moons of Arcadios. Though the people of the planet generally did not trust these strangers, after all they enjoyed peace for hundreds of years due to their isolation. Princess Delphine, crown princess of Arcadios, was the one who gave the directive to treat these strangers as guests.
After the explorers from earth were brought back to full health and their ship repaired, Princess Delphine accompanied them herself on their trip back to earth. Since then, the two planets have had a limited, but plentiful, trade relationship.
Recently Arcadios has had an influx of refugees as the Empire of Pandemios expands it's reach. More and more have sought out the planet for safety and the Galactic Knights worry it will only be a matter of time before they have to take up arms on full to defend the planet.

I'm a little confused here.  Do people think Arcadios is a myth or not?  'Cause I assumed it was like Space Atlantis or something, but it has a trade agreement with Earth and apparently an immigration problem.  And speaking of Earth, I always assumed Power Rangers' Earth was supposed to be like real, modern Earth (except when it's a season set in the future or an alternate reality after a robot apocalypse), but Zordon hasn't even recruited the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers yet and we're already exploring alien worlds? And I haven't caught up with Power Rangers since at least Ninja Steel, but I don't remember anything about an Earth Federation.

I think it refers to https://powerrangers.fandom.com/wiki/Space_Federation

[ShadowFox89]

No, it's me not having an editor to remind me of what I already wrote.

Would people prefer the myth take or the trade take? Sometimes I get a little too deep into what I'm currently writing and forget to check what I had written before.

The trade for sure.

[Steir]

I think with the way I set up my character's background I'm fine with whichever approach. :3c

[Avernale]

Same.  Mine technically works either way, but I'll still feel like I need to rewrite some of it. (There was also a version I wrote where I forgot Arcadios was a myth and my character just moved there because his wife got big job there, but I wasn't really satisfied with that version anyway)

[Silvered Sutures]

Trade makes most sense for Lyxe's backstory considering she lived with a human on Arcadios, and it seems we're leaning that way.

[Idej]

Hi sorry

I was waiting on a,question to be answered on what books were available?

I had an idea for a character with Morphin Pet from Field Guide and using Pet Mutations from Cobra Codex too.

Otherwise character would have been done already

[ShadowFox89]

 Oh! Right! Apologies.

I have the Joe core book and the Transformers core book, I'm afraid I don't have the Cobra Codex just yet. Once I do, I'll look over the stuff from there and let you know.


edit: Updated first post with allowed books.


If everyone could please reply after this with their preference between Bondage-Exotic, NC-Exotic, and Extreme. I'm sending out the link for the playrole room now so folks can make their sheets and will be getting the OOC and IC up this weekend.
