The Chip Chase Mystery RPG

[l7]

Right, first things first... This is Mircomaster RPG and has nothing to do with Chip Chase, the human character of the G1 cartoon. Its more of a play on words. Feel better now?

So anyways, its based on Cybertron during the time of war where's there's no Optimus Prime and a few Cybertronians have been shrunk to converse energy, much like the DW comic.

A group of Micromasters, that be the players, have been called in to investigate how the security at autobot HQ has been by-passed, resulting in the death of some of their top ranking officers, and how the trepassers have gotten in and then escaped without leaving a clue.

I talk to Rainstorm and Steel seeing when I can go and there cool with me going up next after Un-Sung Heroes is done. And I know dhx isn't about so someone needs to throw in a new rpg. So if its ok with the Twins, then I'd like a go as another L7 at the Moon is well over due.

I read that as "The Chip Chase Misery." I think that'd be better. An entire RPG where Chip Chase gets the everloving snot kicked out of him.

[l7]

Oh no worries there, as I'm bound to kick the snot out of you guys.


For fun's sake of course.

hmmm a mini-Xbot...sounds good to me!

[Imperator]

Ooh-hoo... I've just worked out my character. Looking forward to this.

[glow=blue,2,300]I'm going to post the tech spec here for anyone who wants to sign up and get a head start on their character. IM me the finished tech spec for approval along with any questions. You have 60pts for your stats. And remember, all players are Micromasters. This should go without saying but no Headmasters, Targetmasters and especially no Minicons. And bear in mind that due to the extreme small size of these charaters, a strength or firepower of 10 isn't the same as a normal sized Transformer.

other then size what's the difference between a Micromaster and a regular TF? Is bumblebee a Micromaster? as far as ALT modes do they have normal vehicles planes and such or is there alt mode different? A finished Micromaster Tech spec..would do wonders for us micromaster Rookies..Thanks.

[glow=blue,2,300]Micromasters were large Transformers made small to cut down on high energy consumtions during the war on Cybertron, and properly spying too, you hear about it in Beast Wars all the time.

They are only slightly larger than an average human adult. Commonly they are comprised in to groups of 4 members, with one leader and with similar theme in vehicular design. However, the group you guys become, aka the Trouble Makers, will be larger then four members if we have more players then that, and will have more freedom in what their character transforms into.

And no, Bumblebee is a Minibot, not a Mircomaster. [/glow]

[Aqualec]

I'm In it for sure!! Mini Aqualec or Mini something else.

[glow=blue,2,300]I may have to say no to pre-existing characters, like a mini-Sideswipe or something, but a mini-Aqualec is fine.[/glow]

Just a reminder to anyone not overly familiar with the Micromasters concept:

The Micromasters are mostly "new-born" transformers, created by their elder, larger bretheren to be the next generation of more efficient warriors to fight in the Civil War, on both sides. As such, many among the Micromasters are of the insubordinate persuasion, bitter towards their creators for sending them into a war began before they were even built. There are a few among the micromasters who were originally the larger variety of transformers (or "guzzlers" as the micromasters call them) and were downgraded into micromaster forms to provide some kind of stability among the ranks. It didn't work.

[Xbot]

So are we Guzzlers that were shrunk down or are we built as micromasters?

[Imperator]

Either, I should think. I know my character's a former-guzzler, but bear in mind that these are a very small minority. Among the official cannon characters I think there were only about five or six ever indicated as having been downgraded, so if this group's indicative of micromasters as a whole, most will have been built that way.

[l7]

[glow=blue,2,300]Don't worry about any past history, if you want your guy to have a past and was shrunk down or starting fresh as a newly made Micromaster, its up to you. While this rpg may have elements of the DW comic, I'm only throwing those bits in here for fun anyhow.

So you can be an ex-con for all I care, but all character will be autobot micromasters at present. And you can choose if you have an attitude towards the larger bots or not, up to you guys.[/glow]
