This is just an interest thread for a Neon Genesis Evangelion Rp.

For those of you who don't know what NGE is, then...

SHAME

Here's the intro supplied by the Adeptus Evangelion rule book, 'cause I'm too lasy to sumarise it...

QUOTE
It has been 15 years since Second Impact.
An explosion in Antarctica, vaporizing the entire continent. The tidal waves killed billions worldwide and costal regions of every continent were flooded. Worse yet, the very axis of the Earth was permanently changed, causing a global climate shift that devastated crops and added incredible stress to already decimated regions.
In the following devastation, many countries and governments collapsed entirely as the United Nations struggled to hold humanity together. Rioting and war became common as resources became both desperately needed and virtually impossible to acquire. The months following Second Impact were a time that no one escaped unscathed, and all told only half of the human race survived the disaster and our own frightened stupidity.
It took years before the situation stabilized enough for the UN to mount an expedition to ground zero to investigate the explosion. A report was published, proving that Second Impact was the result of a 4-inch meteorite traveling at 95% of the speed of light, much too small and fast to have been detected before its devastating collision with the Earth’s South Pole.
To this day, all but the most well informed of individuals believe this.
In truth, Second Impact was caused by the awakening and subsequent defeat of a
powerful being since labeled “Adam”. A being older than life on Earth, and of extraterrestrial origin.

Adam was the first. He was not the last. Humanity is under threat again, and if even a single battle is lost it could mean the end of the entire human race.
That fate of the world is in your hands.

Don’t Stump it up.


Basically, you take the role of a 'Pilot', a person of about 15 years, who controls a 40 metre (about 131 feet) tall cyborg 'Biomecha' of human and alien hybrid DNA.
It is controlled via an entry plug, seated in the 3rd and 4th vertebra, and is commanded via a psychic link with the pilot.

Which can make you go insane. Which is also a death sentence. Yes, in this game, you can die without taking any wounds...

Adeptus Evangelion is a suplement to the Dark Heresy W40k rule book, which, in turn, was insipired by the DnD style rpg.

I'll need 3-5 players, with me as the the GM (often called an EB by the players of AE).

If you are interested, post a reply and, if we get enough, I'll stick up a character creation thread.

This looks interesting, but I don't know too much about Neon Genesis Evangelion. Besides that, I'm in.

Non Player Character - April 30, 2010 04:17 AM (GMT)
Oddly, the less you know about the series, the better it actually plays.
Probably 'cause you don't really know what going to happen ^^

JYAP - April 30, 2010 11:13 AM (GMT)
You had me at giant robots.

(joins)
(stalls the game to high heaven due to our massive time zone differences)

Aqua - April 30, 2010 11:46 AM (GMT)
Speaking of time zones, I think NPC's in the same time zone as me. Fantastic.

CharizardKiller - April 30, 2010 05:16 PM (GMT)
Lol. If I didn't have EXAMS in a week or two I might have joined.
All I know about NGE is Giant Robots and Aliens.

Aqua - April 30, 2010 05:39 PM (GMT)
Wait. Giant robots I know, but aliens? Well, Stump. What else don't I know? (There's a joke to be made here about a certain commercial, but I refuse to make it.)

RocketTK - April 30, 2010 10:02 PM (GMT)
I've watched the first episode... I had to stop watching because of that silly "School" stuff.

I have interest, but wont be able to reliably play until after next week due to tons of schoolwork, and 12th grade finals.

Non Player Character - May 1, 2010 09:34 AM (GMT)
Nuts. I've only posted this up now 'cause I've done all my mid-semesters.

And JYAP makes two. And don't worry about time zones. I can get on during the week at -almost- anytime during the day. Laptops FTW.

@Aqua: Yes, there are Aliens. Giant Aliens. Giant Psychic Aliens with lasers, swords... and... stuff... They're called angels. Yes, that is a biblical reference - the idea behind it is that the current events are such a traumatic experiance for all man kind that the memories echoed into the past. Thus, all religion is, in essence, predictions of the future.
... or something like that ^^;
BTW, I'm at +10hrs GMT.

@Rocket: Which series were you watching? The new one, the movies, or the original? 'Cause the original is what this is (loosely) based on.

Look it up on wikipedia for the full idea.
Or, better yet, look here: http://wiki.evageeks.org/
Mind you, a few of those 'angels' will be different in-rp.

Edit: Meh, we can start making characters now, I guess.
We may only have two, but the series introduced about three new pilots over the course of the show (starting with two) so it won't be hard to fit new characters in at a later date.
It just means you won't get any Exp from already-fought battles. To be nice, though, you may get a creation bonus, to help you keep up.
*waddles off to make teh character sheets*

RocketTK - May 1, 2010 09:39 PM (GMT)
Neon Genesis Evangelion, I don't know which one that is. It certainly wasn't a movie.

Thats the end of the first episode, so maybe you can tell from that.

SoaD - May 1, 2010 10:16 PM (GMT)

Non Player Character - May 2, 2010 02:17 AM (GMT)
