[OOC Board] Eternal Galaxy: Phoenix

[Koishi]

I don't know why, but whenever i'm thinking of stuff being erased from existence, my mind instantly jumps to Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. Though in that, it was for different reasons, of course.

[OOC Board] Eternal Galaxy: Phoenix

@s1

More likely it would be trying to become less so that it can no longer be affected by the physical realm.
Slightly more than a concept, slightly less than real.
It would be impossible to kill for there is nothing to kill.
But it still exists enough that it can control Nihiliods and be known to us.

It is a sentient mind tied to nothing.
No shape, no bounds, nothing.
When the void is released...
I think it would be that moment of spine chilling silence because everyone would be expecting something, yet nothing happens.

I don't even know how it would be described, because we define things that exist.
The void does not exist...
But the unknown Caeles did exist...and it is proof of the existence of the void.
So maybe to give it a form....or well...lack of...
It would be an entity. Boundless and shapeless. It cannot be described.

Thats it...
It cannot be described.
The Void is defined in our reality by not having a definition. We cannot express it in words, for that would be defining it. Even now, by me typing this, i am defining it. This is false.

It is literally a case of "This statement is false."

This will be fun to write about in the RP...
Anything we say about the void is both true and false. Even this statement.

So I think, For the sake of sanity, I will define the void as a paradox.

@mima
Aye, there's been a few cases where different things toy with the notion of erasure from existence.

@Cucoo

Then the only real way to force it to show itself is to kill all the Nihilids. This will be quite the puzzle.

It's like a long-term boss battle where the battle is more like a series of tasks, a war of sorts. Great job Cucoo, I think you just made the longest boss battle ever. XD

[Cucoo5]

[OOC Board] Eternal Galaxy: Phoenix

And that is exactly what the war of eternity was.

This is the like the endgame sort of.

@Cucoo

Like an endgame, only with a couple new faces.

In a sense, could this be considered the sequel?

[Cucoo5]

[OOC Board] Eternal Galaxy: Phoenix

...technically yes.

Originally, Phoenix was the epilogue of the part labeled Echoes of Time.

But expanding it out like this it can be independent of that.

@Cucoo

Eternal Galaxy 2: Electric Boogaloo XD

Okay, joking aside, it's like the first two RP's were the first "chapter" or " movie", and this one is the next one in the series.

Hmmm... imagine EG in cinematic format. The action scenes would be awesome. XD

[Kristia]

ok Im back.. my brain is fried and what have I missed?

or what can I help with?

[Cucoo5]

@ S1
>imagine EG in cinematic format
>How I view it in my head every single day. literally

Aye, there's definitely quite a few scenes I have in my head.

But actually, based on the timeline, there's 8 Eras, 5 of which are the ones I would create into a series of books... as much as I would love to animate it all.
>Things I want to do but don't take the time to do so.

Let me repost that summary timeline divided by Era

Spoiler:

RY = Reference Year

Spoiler: Era of the Void

RY -X
Void
The Caeles society advances to a point where they become god-like.

One delves into the notion of the void and studies it and attempts to replicate it.
The Caeles that does this eventually succeeds and becomes the embodiment of the void.

This consumes his/her identity and therefore he becomes simply known as that which he/she became, the Void.

Nihil
- Nihiliods are created from the Void as destroyers of life.

GAIA Computer and Heaven's Forge are created to combat the Nihiliods.

The First Phoenix Incident occurs, activated by a Caeles known as Venturia, in an attempt to fight back the Nihiliod infection.
It is mostly successful.

Spoiler: Era of the Dawn

RY 0
Arcains and Prometheos evolve from the recreated galaxy
Seeing these new beings growing in the new Galaxy, the Caeles retreat to an alternative timeline so as to not interfere with the evolution of these new beings.

RY 10,000
Corlaviri and the rediscovery of the GAIA Computer
The crystalline substance known as Corlaviri is discovered by Arcains and the GAIA Computer is found by Prometheos on the Planet Nox of Venion system.

Among them were Mike Warr (Cicero), Ryan Cyke (Nero), and Sarah Trinity.

RY 12,123
"Phoenix Incident"
Arcain Revolt: Began by Humans. The revolt that is later named the Phoenix Incident starts as a means to liberate the Arcains from Prometheos oppression. Cicero, Nero, and Sarah attempt to use the revolt as cover for their attempt to obtain access to the GAIA Computer, a large system that is capable of manipulating the very fabric of existence of the entire Venturian Galaxy through manipulation of both Gaia and Anti Energy. Originally, the revolt was dismissed by the Council of Twelve as a mere rumor. However, Aion Leonares begins investigating and starts to find out about Cicero's scheme to gain access to the GAIA Computer.

When the Council acknowledges the Phoenix Revolt as an actual threat, Aion chooses to remain neutral for fear of upsetting his Arcain servants, especially his head maid Tina, whom he has growing feelings for.

When the Revolution turned into open hostilities, a renegade group targeted the House of Eternity for the reasoning of "not choosing a side." The attack resulted in the death of Tina and most of Aion's servants.
Aion's original mortal form was also killed during this.
- This was not to Cicero's plans. Without Aion, he feared for the stability of the Galaxy's place in the natural timeline of the universe. Without the Master of Time, he feared that Time itself would start to erode away at the galaxy. "Time is a beast and we just killed its master." - Cicero

Sarah dies when Cicero activates the GAIA Computer.

Nyx, Aion's Mother, guided Aion's spirit to the Passages of Fate so that it might survive and be reborn in a new mortal body. This is to keep the last Master of Time in the plane of existence so that Time does not fall apart.

Birth of New Venturia. Dawn of the Life Hackers.
Destruction of Original Venturia.
Cicero shapes new Venturia using Aurora.

A mysterious human begins to catalogue the occurrences of these rifts and looks into adapting Aura Tech to manipulate these Fissures to his own benefit.However, his tampering with the rifts led to the rediscovery of the Caeles, who had hidden themselves in one of the alternative timelines that can be reached through the rifts. This also led to the release of the Void and a renewed outbreak of Nihiliods. The people of Venturia then fought along with the Caeles to contain the threat of the Void utilizing the artifacts of Heaven's Forge. The technology created during this incident was later repurposed to continue the advancement of society.

This is the first outbreak of Nihiliods the new people of the Venturian Galaxy experience.

@ Kristia
us defining the Void and me actually making a draft of the current Void Timeline *See above here*

[S121]

@Cucoo

Ohh... I can't see videos. They take up a lot of data. I miss listening to epic music.

Anyways, it would be awesome to at least see it in a style like RBWY. The action... the action.

As you can tell, I like action.

[Cucoo5]

@ S1

Oh right

And I was actually thinking of a similar style.
There was this one French CGI Anime called Skyland

Similar in style to RWBY, but smoother imo

The current battle scenes I'm imagining to be really epic is Aion vs Anankerisa, Aion and Co. vs Sol, Eleos vs Bio Computer, and Venturian Empire vs Daedalus Project.

I wish I would take the time to learn how to model humanoids... and then how to animate it.
I mean, I can 3D model... with Solidworks and AutoCAD. I do have access to everything Autodesk for free... but my laptop ain't that good.
I know I can run blender but the interface is my greatest enemy.

[Kristia]

oh I got great ideas for battles, have you ever kicked someone so fast that her skyrocketed to a wall? or crushed someone with a missile punch?

*Grins maniacally* Battles will be indeed epic

[S121]

@Cucoo

Yea, it does look a little smoother.

All this talk about action scenes makes me think about the possible future ones in Phoenix. I then think about the action scene I made near the beginning, then miss RPing because of said action scenes, past and future.

I really need to find a way to get internet for my computer.

Anyways, what possible future action scenes are you looking forward to?



I was decent in Blender, but couldn't work the UV maps for the textures.





@Kristia

Same question I asked Cucoo.

[Cucoo5]

aye

well let's see
we got the Shrine soon
then we got
Nihiliods
A few dungeons that end with the retrieval of the keystones (insert bosses here)
and something to do with the Daedalus Project. High probability that it'll be Nihiliods.
and at the end, the Void. Or well...maybe...

[S121]

@Cucoo

I can't wait for some battles with Ethan, and of course, John. Basically, any character I control because that means I get to type the action up. XD

I may or may not take an unhealthy interest in typing up long battles, but I can just type them up so easily. Not only that, I take pride in them, AND I enjoy typing them.




@Kristia

Same question I asked Cucoo. Which ones are you looking forward to?
