[OOC Board] - All the World's a Game

All of a sudden I got reminded of the first RP I was ever in... This one guy had a character that was a freaking Leviathan and "Was alive since the beginning of all time" and had "The power to destroy the world." Guess what that character's goal was? To eat a single freaking elf, half demon, and alchemist. Kinda stupid if ya ask me. Oh and this leviathan character could possess any NPC, and was not able to be killed by anything except a incredibly old gun that he had in his possession. In other words our characters could only prolong the inevitable death of everything unless someone took charge (the GM of the RP left sometime before I joined it, and as such someone else took temporary status of GM until the original GM came back which never happened.)

Tl;dr godlike character. :3
Can I get some post on IC about Shinki's offer?

It already happened, but in reality, the hakurei border, for what I understand is to maintain the youkai, magical, etc.. people from the outside world, like the lunarians who live in the dark side of the moon from the human point of view, yet that is also a barrier to hide their people from the humans

In my opinion a God-Like character can be a good villain if used, and or kept under close supervision of the GM of the RP. For example a god-like villain keeping on the down low using henchmen to do his dirty work. Only occasionally fighting the heroes himself when he needs something done right or just wants a bit more fun. As well as given a way to defeat him that seems capable of being done in an RP. If not done right a god-like character will obviously be a huge pain in the ass. Even then I don't think God-Like characters should even exist in an RP unless it is actually part of the plot, and executed correctly.

Patchy isn't here to discuss about this, so...
Suika, can Overmind be the final boss?

hm.. a ginormous mass of evilness that can control people´s minds.. sounds like a classic.

Yet we would need a villain who is actually the speaker of such mass

I have a few villains in mind for something like that.

Sigma from MegaMan X (a reploid that's consciousness exists in the form of a virus that causes Reploids to go maverick, and always gets some sorry fool to make a new body for him.)

Vergil from Devil May Cry (from the original games)

and a few others that I can't think of at the moment.

No, the Overmind is my character and I already know what I'm doing with it. It's not gonna be the final boss. And Kristia, the Overmind isn't really evil if you go play Starcraft 2.

sorry, but when I looked at it and its powers, the overmind has the similarities of villains

"The Overmind was formed with thought and reason but not with free will. It screamed and raged in a prison of its own mind." - Starcraft wikia.

[EDIT]30 people on the forums? Is this normal?
