And last but not least.... I'd like to acquaint you with certain elements of the Tower, including your Starting Place.

---

This is a rough-sketch overview of the Tower, located at the South Pole.

[image=http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y42/Coruscant/scan_7516214635_1.jpg]

[b]The Tower[/b]: As you can see, the Tower is 1-mile high and could be considered an arcology (artificial living habitat). The men who envisioned and designed it called it the Acroholo. Construction began in 2020. It abruptly ended for unknown reason in 2033. The tower had achieved its planned height but only half its many floors had been furnished and dressed with glass, etc... But the most important aspect of the Tower... the SPACE ELEVATOR.... located in between the four individual towers you see in the sketch, is fully complete.

[b]The Discontinuation[/b]: In 2033, construction came to an end but the Tower was not complete. All the builders, carpenters, masons, electricians, plumbers, etc... died where they stood for no apparent reason. Their many bodies are spread throughout the Tower. The contractors and engineers vanished into thin air. And the Tower appears to have been forgotten by civilization, as they have made no effort to locate it in the many years after the Discontinuation.

[b]The Man[/b]: As the man who originally envisioned this space elevator and arcology deluxe, Mars Miles Madding primarily financed the tower's creation from his own pocket. It was no small expense and the erection has dwindled much of his trillion-dollar fortune. The construction is a well-kept secret, one held by builders to government bureaucrats. Triple-M disappeared after the Discontinuation. His whereabouts are unknown.

[b]The Butler[/b]: Gottfried is Triple-M's right-hand. He is a Butler for the Tower, of sorts. He will initiate and facilitate many of the challenges that your characters will face, at Triple-M's behest. Whether Gottfried is insane, thinking he serves a still-living Master, or if Triple-M really is alive, remains to be seen.

[b]The Experiments[/b]: Beside the space elevator, the Tower served for a variety of other experiments begun shortly before the Discontinuation, one of which led to the emergence of the 50 fictional characters. How can experiments have begun if the Tower was not complete? The primary, bulk portion of it was complete (you can see it in the sketch), as well as the underground portion (which mirrors the Tower's one mile height). Another experiment involved the most advanced dual computer/robot system in the world, integrated into the great structure itself, and now many years later, it will become evident the Tower has a mind of its own.

[b]The Force Field[/b]: An oval forcefield surrounds the entire tower, skyscraper and underground, in a bubble. Objects can enter from outside but cannot exit from within, including the most powerful of fantastical characters.

[b]The Ringbridge[/b]: Connecting all the four individual towers at the top is a big ring, like a crown. This is your Starting Place. I ask that until after the first challenge, all characters remain here. Don't worry, it's quite a big place, as big as the Pentagon (the Ringbridge specifically). Plenty of room to RP. The giant cable that is the space elevator goes through the Ringbridge like a thread. If you look at the bottom-left drawing in the sketch, you'll see straight bridges connecting all the towers. Those aren't the Ringbridge. They are separate. The Ringbridge is at the very top, connecting all towers.

[b]Starting Place[/b]: Now I will provide you with an exact description of the Starting location. The outer edge of the Ringbridge is an open-air area protected from the elements only by a very large, one-pane window (yes, it's one pane, the window wraps around the entire ring in one piece). The open-air area is about five stories high, with balconies and staircases protruding from each floor.

Your characters will find themselves on the FIRST FLOOR of this Ringbridge, near the window providing a stunning vista of the

 

IC:

Rianna Saren stood at the window gazing out at the view. There seemed to be snow as far as her eyes could see, with small buildings littering it here and there. She touched her finger tips against the glass and starred, lost in thought.

OOC:

We can start, can't we?

 

I am apalled that there is no Thor...


Again, sorry that I was unable to continue on as co-host this time around. Quix will make sure the game continues on smoothly.... even when Cor drops the ball...


Everybody have a great game... I'll be following along here and there... and expect comments from the peanut gallery... it's my birthright as former co-host... so there.

This one should be interesting... have fun everybody.

 

OOC: I hope so, because here's my intro post.

IC: A strange noise is heard by those in the open air area, and within moments, a blue police box appears near the window, seemingly out of nowhere. The doors open and out steps a man wearing a dark brown pinstripe suit, shirt and tie, a light brown overcoat and a pair of cream-colored Converse All Stars sneakers.

Taking a look around, he lets out a slow breath. ?Well?this is certainly interesting.?

 

IC: Lord Voldemort

---

Lord Voldemort circled the arena in which he faced off against his young foe, Harry Potter. He and Potter had been transpoted to this strange areana with an orange sky after falling through the Veil in the Department of Mysteries.

"You want escape me this time, Potter! There's no one left to save you. Great Dumbeldore is dead and your pitiful friends cannot find you here. It is just you and me this time Potter." Voldemort sneered at his nemesis.

"You didn't fair so well last time it was just the two of us, Voldemort. You were nearly destroyed and I was just a baby!" screamed Harry.

"SILENCE! I will not suffer your insolence. I have rectified my mistake; your mother's love cannot save you here."

"That's true, but I have destroyed your precious horcruxes and now all I have to do is kill you!"

"We shall see Potter, we shall see... EXPELLIARMUS!" Harry's wand went flying. Harry dove after it, but he wouldn't be able to reach it time.

"I have you now! AVADA..." At that moment Voldemort felt ground shake. [i]What magic is this!?[/i] he thought as everything around him went dark.

He awoke hours later in a dark room. Dusting his robes as he stood up, Voldemort looked around him. He was standing beside a giant window that overlooked a snowy landscape a mile below. On the opposite wall were several paintings of the same man, MMM apparently. The Hall he was in appeared to stretch around in one giant circle.

[i]Where am I? Filthy mudblood Potter! Where has he sent me?[/i]
[hr]

OOC: The Harry Potter I refer to is not the same Harry Potter as played by Darth_Brutus666, so I'm not God-Modding. [face_tongue] That whole thing is really an introduction.

 

OOC: Peanut gallery, y'say?

Will there be random stashes of peanuts hidden about the place?

 

IC: Link

Link was on top of Gannon's Tower, locked in Mortal Combat with the enemy. Ganon Himself! The fate of Hyrule and The Princess hung in the Balance. He drew back his Bow and was abotu to fire when a bright light filled the sky. He was nearly blinded and then he passed out.

When he came to he was still on top of...."Wait, THis isn't Ganon's Tower." He said to himself.

As he turned he realised that he wasn't alone.

There must be fifty creatures here he thought to himself. He drew his sword and shield.

"What in the name of the Triforce is going on here?"

Tag: All others

 

IC Bugs Bunny:

A line of disturbed snow was wending its way toward the tower, and eventually it ended right on the other side of the door, inside the entryway to the tower. A moment later, out popped an unusually large grey rabbit. This was Bugs Bunny, oldest living example of his species in existence and one of the world?s most famous bachelors. ?I knew I shoulda taken that left toin at Albuquerque.?

He whistled. ?What a mah-velous place dis is!? He put his gloved hands behind his back as he strolled around the room. ?My stahs.? It was some kind of ring that connected all of the towers, and there was a lovely view of the cold through a glass window. There were so many pictures of their host, a man who reminded him of Yosemite Sam, if in ego, not in size. He removed a carrot from somewhere and began chewing it noisily, wanting to take the opportunity to go exploring. He was not used to such luxury, especially since he had grown up so poor.

He remembered his youth in Brooklyn as generally happy, with one of the main exceptions being that time he was set upon by a gang of thuggish dogs. He had been tap-dancing along and singing ?The Daughter of Rosie O?Grady,? and they had attacked him without provocation. This was the first time he had had to use his considerable wits against bullies, though certainly not the last. Throughout his life, he had met various interesting characters and had had many madcap adventures, but there was a common theme that had informed everything: he just wanted to be left alone. When such did not happen, things had a way of getting ugly . . . for the other person, or animal, or monster.

There were of course other people who were arriving all of the time. Maybe it was time to introduce himself to the others and see what was going on.

 

IHM: You can start. Game has begun!

*shoots bullet into air* And theeeey're off!

 

OOC: I never was good with locations.

IC: As Sonic the Hedgehog
---

Sonic looked around the large glass structure, below it two towers a mile long at the other 49 people with him...many were powerful figures he read about in stories...what were THEY doing here with him?

What WAS here anyway? What was going on?...

...maybe one of these guys had an idea?

"Any idea what's going on around here?"
------------

TAG: Any, really

 

IC: The Doctor took a look around the area, seeing all the strange individuals that were starting to appear. The first one he had spotted was an unusual female with twin tentacles sprouted from her eyes, the next a bald albino man. Two others made their way into the room then, what appeared to be some sort of elvish creature and...a rabbit?

"Glad I dropped Rose back home," he muttered under his breath. "Don't think this would be the kind of place to take her."

 

IHM: Doing good, guys, doing great! Awesome introductory posts.

 

IC Bugs:

The hedgehog was probably not talking to him specifically, but he answered anyway. "I got no idea how or where I am, Mac. But wherever it is, it sure is lovely, ain't it?"

He had noticed the guy that had materialized in the phone booth. This could be an interesting fellow. He walked up to the guy, chewing his carrot all the while. "Eh, what's up, Doc?"

Tag: Sonic, Doctor Who?

 

IC: Voldemort

Voldemort took a moment to compose himself. Not sense he had nearly been vanquished by Harry Potter had he felt so confused. But the confusion was momentary, Voldemort thoughts turned to his predicament. How can I get out of here?

He'd tried to Apparate back to the Ministry of Magic, but something had prevented it. Just then, he noticed others appearing around him. Most interesting was a man that appeared out of a blue box that appeared out of know where.

He must be a powerful wizard. Perhaps he'd be open to an alliance. I'll have to be wary, he might by an Auror from the Ministry.

He walked over quickly to the man near the blue box.

"You seem to be a very powerful wizard. How did you manage to Apparate into this place?"

TAG: the Doctor

 

IC as Acksy:

The Tauren cow popped into appearance in front of a window, a great white expanse in view behind him. "This isn't Aldor Rise" he thought, immediately taken aback. "Did I set my hearthstone somewhere else? No...something must be wrong." He glanced around at others in the room, at first noticing the humans. But they didn't seem to be hostile. And there were others too, all sorts of races he was unfamiliar with. Turning around and taking in the view, he realized he couldn't recognize where he had hearthed to, either.

 

IC: Marvin

Marvin had been in a swamp. He was sure of it. I was hot and humid. He hadn't liked it. And the bugs. Not that they really bothered him, him being a robot and all, but they had still been there and he had still despised them. Marvin despised everything and everyone. He was very unhappy, even now.

Now, in this building or sorts. Where was he? With a resigned sigh, he sat down on a nearby staircase to consider this new predicament.

TAG: Any

 

IC as The Doctor

The Doctor looked down at the rabbit curiously, wondering how it was possible that he could be talking to him. But his attention suddenly shifted to the other person who had decided to engage him in conversation. He immediately grew wary at seeing him, knowing that this was someone more dangerous than even the Daleks. Once again he was thankful that he had decided to drop Rose off before coming here.

He held out his hand. "Oh, I'm sure it's quite beyond your understanding, Mister..." He paused, a slight smile forming on his face. "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't quite catch your name."

TAG: Voldemort.

 

IC: Itachi Uchiha

Uchiha stood near the middle of the room, gazing with his sharingan eyes into what seemed as empty space. Then it changed.

What happened, he asked himself. He was fighting Kakashi, but suddenly Kakashi was gone.

He then closed his eyes, controlling his flow of chakra and getting a better understanding of his surroundings. He opened them, then walked towards Voldemort. This guy had a aura around him, a sense of power, just like Itachi. This man had killed before, Itachi could sense.

"What's you name?"

TAG: Voldemort

 

IC Atticus Finch

Atticus Finch felt lost. He wasn't quite sure where he was, and he worried about his children back home. Ever since they'd been attacked by Bob Ewell after the Halloween pagent he'd been worried. Where ever he was now Atticus was hoping Calpurnia and Alexandra were taking care of Jem and Scout.

He took in the room. Glass, everywhere. So many people, and creatures all around. This certainly wasn't Maycomb County. Across the room an oddly dressed fellow called out. "What in the name of the Triforce is going on here?" He had a sword and shield in his hand.

Closer to Atticus a strange blue thing asked, "Any idea what's going on around here?"

A rabbit replied to the thing and Atticus slowly walked around the room, hoping to find a familiar face.

He couldn't find one, and on one of the staircases he found something sitting.

"Pardon me sir," Atticus began, "do you know where we are?"

IC: As Sonic the Hedgehog

"I got no idea how or where I am, Mac. But wherever it is, it sure is lovely, ain't it?"

"I guess...the glass covering really kills the feeling though."

And for some odd reason, he thought of a commercial he saw in Mobius the other day....

What that had to do with anything going on?....

...he really had no idea.
-----

TAG: Bugs

 

IC Bugs:

Had he just been snubbed? "How do ya like that? Ya try to talk to a guy, and he ignores you. Didn't your ma ever teach you any manners?" he said to the man from the phone booth. Maybe the other guy had been taught better. "You got any clue where we are?" he said to the other.

TAG: The Doctor, Voldemort

 

Voldemort ignored the talking animals around him, including a rabbit, a hedgehog, and what appeared to be a minotaur, they weren't worth his time. However, he could sense by their appearance that there was something special about this place. There is very strong magic in this place, I can feel it.

He turned back to the man in the pinstripe suit. He'd tried to read the man's mind, but there was something there, blocking him. He'd asked for his name and hadn't made any hostile moves, so it appeared that he hadn't recognized him.

"I am Lord Voldemort. Who might you be?"

At that moment another man walked up to him and asked for his name.

How do these people not know of me and my power?

"As I just told this gentleman, I am Lord Voldemort. Who are you?"

TAG: The Doctor, Itachi Uchiha

 

IC:

The sudden noise brought Riana back to her sense. She looked at her comms device and poked it a few times. Zeeo wasn't responding, either that or zeeo couldn't respond. Something must be jamming her signal, but what?

She turned and looked around her. There was a large and assorted group gathered here. A man in a long coat, another with the face of a snake, a blue hedgehog and a boy with a sword. She checked her own weapons and found out that her blasters had gone and that she only had the Thorn of Ryloth with her.

'This could be a problem' she thought and made her way over to the blue box.
