Want to talk about the game while not being in character? Want to talk about sci-fi? Tabletop games in general? The state of the world, or just how your day is going? Do it here.

Now we have two people. Our Mechanic and Our Weaponsmaster! How is everyone? Welcome to the game! Do you guys want to meet in the game or know eachother, or at least about eachother before the game starts?

I think that depends.  Do we already have our powers?  I could see it going one of 2 very different ways.  1 we already know each other and gain our powers at the same time.  Or 2 we already have our powers and we meet at a battle sense or something.  Honestly I am good with whatever everyone wants to do.  Those are just my 2 ideas right off.

Nah, you start off not having powers. But if you know eachother or if you don't you guys are going to get powers at or around the same time because of the circumstances of the initial fight.

Hi Heikisho! Have you just arrived in town or have you been there a while.

Yes I am currently in my 2nd year of Grad school here, working towards a masters in Library Science.  How about yourself?

I'm glad you guys are up. I might not bump the ad till 5 or maybe Monday or so. Because people are working a lot and Monday night seems to be busy. Any suggestions for people who have also ran games? I've run a lot of games but not for systems and not in a few years.

Abigail has been in the town most of her life so is quite familiar with the area, but she is quite a bit younger than you, only just starting her study, which is naturally, engineering and mechanics.

I'm glad you guys got a good handle on your characters at the moment. Good news too, we may have a Captain coming into the game soon. Also if you guys want you are welcome to start the pregame roleplay, it doesn't have to be canon when the episode starts but if you like you can start playing in that thread with your characters before they get their powers.

 Also off topic of this game, but what was your guys first expirience with a Toku series? Mine was when a girl we knew as a small child brought over a VHS of some Mighty Morphin Power Rangers episodes to our birthday party and a couple of the kids watched them, I was hooked. Also wore out a Tape of VR Troopers we had. You guys?

First series of MMPR when it aired on ITV and I followed through to the middle of the Lord Zed era. Each time a new one was introduced, I usually started to watch it, but then didn't quite understand what was going on, because commitments usually meant I had to start series'halfway through.

I watched some of Masked Rider, Some VR Troopers, some of Beetleborgs etc.. The Americanised versions.

^Yeah, I watched a lot of those same shows when I was younger. I didn't get to see the Lord Zedd era till we got blank tapes that could record on our home VCR but it was a lot of fun when we could.

 We have our Captain now! Everyone please welcome Star Defender Aegis to the game!

Hi everyone, thanks for having me! Hope I can help the team best I can!

As for first experience with Toku, I grew up with the original MMPR series. Loved it a lot, and got back into the franchise with Hyperforce when that came out a few years ago, got me into the Power Rangers RP scene. Was even in a (now sadly discontinued) power rangers fan rpg podcast.

Still haven't seen any Metal Heroes (except for Beetleborgs but not sure if you count that) or Kamen Rider. Need to find a place to start with those series.

My first toku experience was with MMPR the first episode I saw was when Kimberly had to defeat a frog monster that ate the other rangers.  And I was hooked.  I've seen every episode of PR since except the current season Dino Fury I just haven't caught it.   All of the 90s us shows big bad beetleborgs,  superhuman samurai cyber squad, etc.   I've seen almost every season of Super Sentai. And every season of Kamen Rider. I also have alot of the ongoing Power Ranger comic run.   I kinda like Toku.       Glad to have you here Aegis!

Woah, good expirience Heikisho and Aegis. I haven't seen Hyperforce yet but it sounds cool!

 Please welcome your pilot, Overdrive to the team! We are ready to start! I'm still looking for a CO-GM so I'm gonna leave that open, but otherwise we have a whole roster.

When is everyone generally avalible? It'll be play-by-post just want a general idea of times for when you think you'll be posting. I'm on USA EST and I mostly post on days besides Saturday and Sunday for personal reasons, (I'm travelling on Sunday, and Saturday is usually a free day to spend with people IRL).

Scattered. But usually late evening bst/GMT.

Welcome captain and pilot.

Bonjour team. I look forwards to saving the day with all of you. I got started with MMPR when it first came out, even remember seeing the movie in theater, and staying up to watch the late night Lord Zed and Zeo episode. Followed many of the series, though missed mystic force, and the more recent ones. I remember watching Beetle Borg's, VR Troopers, and enjoyed many of the different mediums for the genre

Time wise, I'm in Central Time, and either in the morning or late night for my normal posting time.

Central Time zone here

I'm IST (Indian Standard Time) however from Friday onwards I'll be GMT/UK Time for about a month.

I can usually post most of the day, but things might change mid July as I start my new job.

Also thanks for the welcome Heikisho and Wrench! Bonjour to Overdrive too!

Should we start thinking about character relationships? Whether our characters knew each other before college, or during college, or did we only meet when we became Star Defenders?

My character has no declared major, so can be in anyone's class basically. He might have a connection to Jessica, since he did serve in the military and has a friend who told him to attend this school. It's possible they might be a mutual friend, or maybe a friend of Jessica's family. We might start off antagonistic, if Jessica isn't fond of military people in general, up to you.

Maybe Abigail and Jean-Paul are friends because of their fondness for fixing up vehicles/using spare parts?
