Rusting Gears - Steampunk Roleplay

Postby sensieslime » Tue Jan 17, 2017 9:00 am

This roleplay is set in a steampunk world where scrap is traded around as a currency. Scrap that gets into the hands of inventors will eventually turn into whacky and wonderful creations used for either bad, or good. Countless times, adventures intend of travelling to a scrapyard in a faraway land and bringing home barrels of scrap, but the ones that manage to get back tell tales of some giant mechanical beast living there. However, a small town called Millstone is starting to run out of food. Perhaps getting to the scrapyard is the people's last chance at survival.

What's allowed?: Robots of any kind or shape, Victorian style guns, lasers, strange animals, any kind of contraption/machine you can think of; the better they are, the more they'll cost at shops.

What's not allowed?: Super futuristic and overpowered things.

Name: Ecog
Age: 157
Race: Robot

Pixel art I made:

Personality: Plucky, serious but can also often be happy and friendly.
Starting equipment: Left hand has as laser gun attached to it.
Strengths: Can use the antenna on his head to communicate with anyone with a radio; may not always work.
Weaknesses: Is quite weak since his arms and legs are so thin.
Backstory: Long ago, people would go to the scrapyard to make creations, but when the machines took over, started making themselves stronger, and made minions there was nothing they could do to stop them. Ecog was one of the attack robots made by these machines who would go and raid settlements to bring back goods, but he finally came to his senses when his programming got damaged in a fight and he could start a new life under his own control. Since then, he has lost all of the armour he had.
Other information: He can store items he collects easily in his chest, which has a little openable door on it.

This will be an interesting character! I'm just a bit worried it might be a bit overpowered. It passes, but make sure that it's beatable.

It's a rude moron, almost anything could out smart it, or the snow speeder grappling hook against an AT AT from star wars.

K2-50 was bored. It had been standing for the last 10 seconds, and was bored. It had heard rumours about a scrapyard near-by and was thinking what was needed to go there, loot everything, and trade it for a new hat. First he would need hands. Check. Next, a weapon. Check. Then, another weapon. To do. Next a bag. To do. Then, a bag. To do. Finally, a thing to tell him exactly what to do, when to do it and how to do it. To do.

For the next hour, K2-50 stood there repeating the list, until he realised that he had repeated that list 68,907 times. K2-50 started looking for a shop.

Hi there! Nice roleplay you have going on here, but I recommend you put up some rules soon.
Name: A7-47
Age: 3
Race: Robot
Personality: a bit of a smart aleck, naive
Starting equipment: Bronze plating, robot dog
Strengths: smart, a bit strong, and gets along with people just fine.
Weaknesses: radiation, naive, smart aleck.
Backstory: A7-47 was made by their owner to give her daughter a gift. They became best friends and when the daughter decided that A7-47 should go out in the world, they gave them a bronze plating and a robot dog for their journey. Unfortunately since A7-47 doesn't know much about the world and he is known to be overly confident.
Other information: Has a robot dog.
I'm not secretly a honey tabby largo using its squishy bottom to type in human language.

I'm also a big fan of roleplay!

I wonder why you're reading this big block of text. Are you bored?

That's... fine, I'm sure it'll have a use in the roleplay. Pass!

Ok, If he could easily be outsmarted, then that's quite balanced. Pass!

Ehh, the rules are just to use your common sense and think before you post, like the rules to the whole of the Monomi Park Forums.

As Ecog crawled across the ground, sparks flying out from his legs, he wondered. Did he make the right choice to escape when he had freedom in his grasp? Or should he of rejected escape, and have gone back to his creator, the one who made him out of pieces of scrap in the first place? But then again, now he had all of these thoughts rushing through his mind, choices and feelings ahead of him. The opportunities were endless, which is much better than being programmed to do what you don't want to do, right?

It wasn't as simple as just running away, though. When the other attack robots saw Ecog get damaged, exit hostile mode and start to run, they knew that he had gained free will. They shot at his legs, causing the metal plating to fling of, and blowing the rubber to pieces. Soon he was being dragged back to the scrapyard, to the giant mechanical beast that would fix and reprogram him. However, just as the journey home was drawing to a close, Ecog unexpectedly rebooted himself, allowing him to use his laser cannon to destroy his captures. He couldn't blame the two robots, though. After all, they were just doing what they were made to do.

It was Gross, Dangerous, But cheap. Haltmann needed that fan in order to complete his project. He gagged as he walked through all the rusted metal and scraps littering the ground and piling in heaps, with only a cane in his hands. He wandered around the Scrapyard and pacing multiple times.

Then he found it. it a heap of what seemed to be an old carriage with a cooling system, he almost began to sprint to heap of wreckage, but he remembered that it's ungentlemanly to make a frenzied dash to an item. so he simply walked to the carriage.

Ecog saw a shadow creeping towards him. Slowly, he looked up, his mechanical hinges screeching as they attempted to move. In the skies above, drifting through the clouds, an airship approached. Airships were generally ways of traveling across the harsh environments, but this one had menacing red patterns painted onto the wood to indicate that they were not friendly. Sky pirates were not common, but when they showed up they were extremely difficult to defeat. With little money and no war weapons of their own, these pirates headed straight for Millstone.

Through all of the rusty and broken pieces of scrap, Ecog saw a strange shimmer. Investigating further, he found a brand new pair of legs, different to his previous, but still legs. It was a tight fit, but eventually they were screwed on and Ecog to finally walk again, out of the scrapyards and towards Millstone. Maybe he could profit from the raid.
