Apparently they backpedaled on their anti-indie policies as well just today.

Still not sure I want to jump into bed with them yet though, even if they're now allowing self publishing. It's a nice gesture for sure, especially with the promise that eventually all their consoles will be dev kits in some way. However, we know Microsoft never intended to do this to begin with so I have to wonder how supportive they actually are or if this promise will be followed through.

I still don't trust them.

I'll never jump into bed with Microsoft, let alone have them take my virginity by purchasing a Xbox One!

Omega finally arrived at the scene.
He quickly noticed that a group of other super heroes, fought some kind of giants, among other things.

"NEVER FEAR! FRIENDS OF JUSTICE!" He shouted, flying up into the air on his jetpack. "I, OMEGA MAN, AM HERE TO HELP YOU!"

With that said, he activated his arm cannon from the right hand, charged up some energy and shot one of the giants in the face.

The giant stumbled a bit and fell down upon a nearest building, causing horrible damage to it.

"Hey! Omega guy!" Arche Storm signaled to Omega Man.

"Do you mind covering my back while I toast these beasts? A double-team is just what the doctor ordered!"

He flew up from the ground and created a flame thrower yet again to melt the giants.

"Wha...Of COURSE you can! Your powers are FIRE-BASED. FI. RE. Fire, heat, and such melt ice & snow. You live with a scientist for crying out loud. TWO SCIENTISTS!" Spider-Blues yelled at him.

"Okay, you two distract the frosties. I'm going after Fox-Boy and I can't believe what I just said!"

"First of all, Web-head, thanks for pointing out my incredibly awesome powers. Unfortunately though, these giants don't seem to respond to my flames as well as I thought they would!"

His hands glowed an even brighter red. "Maybe if I continue dishing out the flames, they'll succumb!" He aimed both his hands at one of the beasts and created a flame thrower to shower them with blazing heat.

The giant put its hand in front of the flames, trying to defend itself. The beast started to melt, but at a extraordinarily slow pace. "These guys are tougher than they look!" He yelled out.

As he was dealing out the flames. WHAM! A gigantic snowball hit Arche and sent him flying into a car.

KRRRANNNKKKK!

Glass and pieces of metal scattered across the floor. "Ughhhh... did NOT see that coming..." He rubbed his head and struggled to get up. "Hey!" He called out to Spider-Blues and the other heroes.

"I need a distraction here! I can't fight all of them at once!"

"Ha! You'd be lost without me, webs-for-brain." He yelled back as he dodged yet another snowball.

"Bet I can take more of these guys down than you can!"  He tossed more fireballs towards the Frost Giants.

Arche Storm arrived to the scene, and watched two people dressed as Bats and a man dressed like a Spider fighting against the giant beasts and dancing pedestrians. To the right, he also noticed a singing, dancing Fox-boy.

"What is this? Some twisted Broadway Show?" He quipped and flew towards the heroes.

"Need some help?" He asked as he gathered a huge fireball and hurled it towards one of the Frost Giants. FWOOOOOM! The flames exploded on contact and caused the giant to stumble and fall over.

"Direct hit!" Arche seemed pleased with himself.

But a few seconds after the attack, the giant stood up and growled ferociously like nothing happened.

"Oh, come on! What ever happened to good ol' Fire vs. Ice mechanics?" He yelled out as he dodged one of the gigantic snowballs hurled at him.

I suppose I can have Hierophant be Nick Fury. (Though to be comical, he was talked into it by the card version of Justice, who would most likely be stuck on his back for the duration of the RP)

Yeah, that can work. Remember that Nick Fury is a manipulative bastard!

After Arche Storm finished his breakfast and dissipated the 'ENJOY THE MEAL' flames above the table, he wandered into the living room and turned on the TV. He grabbed the remote off the sofa, plopped down and started flipping through channels.

The Big Comfy Couch, Make Your Own Garden in 30 Minutes, Paid Programming... man, is there anything good on today? He thought to himself as he continued to browse through the channels. After a couple minutes of channel surfing, he came across a Breaking News report.

"What the..." Arche leaned closer to the TV screen and saw gigantic, frosty creatures parading through the streets.

"Hey, Reed! You seeing this?" He shouted from the living room. "Ben? Sis?" No response.

"Where could they be? Whatever, I can handle this!" He walked to the Fantastic Emergency Room and put on his Fantastic Phi suit (which sported an 'F' on the front).

He then ran to the balcony of the 50-story building and jumped off.

"FLAME ON!" Arche Storm yelled as he was falling through the air.

Bright, red flames suddenly engulfed his entire body and he dashed off through the sky, leaving a trail of fire behind him.

"WHOOO-HOOOO!" He cheered as he flipped and twirled through the air, steadily reaching his destination.

"Here comes the Storm!"

Man, I can already tell writing for Arche Storm (Human Torch) is gonna be a ton of fun. Even writing that breakfast scene was awesome.

Posted on: July 24, 2013, 02:01:05 PMSo how is this gonna work, exactly?

All of us form the "RPM-vengers", so wouldn't that mean we need someone to be Nick Fury?

Seriously, DBZA is the funniest [tornado fang]ing thing on the internet!

I also thought the

Not nearly on the level of DBZA, but not too bad.

But again, maybe the best thing to do would've been to ignore it instead of jumping on the bandwagon.

Meanwhile at the Fantastic Phi HQ, Arche Storm was preparing breakfast.

"Alright, got the eggs going. The bacon, waffles..." He jotted the list down in his head. Arche Storm pointed his hand towards the stove, made a pinching gesture with his fingers and rotated them in a clockwise motion (as if he was turning the dial of a stove). The fire from the gas stove grew about twice the size, cooking the eggs and bacon even faster.

"And now the waffles." He looked at the toaster and snapped his fingers a few times. Each time, small bursts of flames shot up from the slots the waffles were in. He snapped his fingers some more, but started to smell something burning.

"Whoops! Better not overdo it!" He jogged over to the table and grabbed the extremely hot toaster, though he would never even feel it.

DINGGG!

The toaster made a high-pitch "ding" sound when he pulled the lever to eject the waffles out. "Eh, slightly burnt, but who cares!"

He took a plate and placed the waffles on it. He aimed his hand at the stove and rotated it counter-clockwise to turn the fire off.

Eggs over easy, not too cheesy~ He sung a little stupid tune as he slid the eggs and bacon into his plate.

He grabbed a fork and was about to dig in when he stopped himself. "Hmm... this table is missing something... oh yeah!"

Arche Storm created a fireball in his hand, hovered it above the table and formed the flames to create letters that read: ENJOY THE MEAL.

He chuckled, and quipped, "That's more like it!" as he began to eat his meal.

(That's right. My first post here is a breakfast scene! )

Archetype looked at his mystery savior, realizing she bore no weapons.

"Well, what are you getting?" He asked her.

She tilted her head a bit at the question. "What?"

"A weapon. What weapon are you getting?" He elaborated, as he gestured to all the various weapons lying about the place.

"Not really how I do things." She said, fiddling with her nails.

It was now Archetype's turn to tilt his head in confusion. "Not how you... do things? Do you just plan on being a sitting duck out there? This is war. You need to defend yourself."

"I never said I was going on the battlefield." She replied.

"Then why are you here?" He rubbed his head, trying to figure out this enigma of a woman.

She looked directly at him. "Look, I know you have questions. And I assure you, I will tell you everything when the time permits. Just trust me."

Archetype chuckled slightly. "Trust you? How can I..." He stopped himself and rephrased it: "How can we trust you, when you haven't even told us your name?"

When asked this, her body position changed a bit. She stood upright, and looked at Archetype with an unreadable expression.

...

She answered in a quiet voice. "Phi"

"... excuse me?" Archetype asked.

"My name is Phi" She spoke in a louder tone.

"That name... sounds familiar, but..." He started to say. "God, I can't recall where I heard it from!"

Phi looked at him in disbelief. "You're not [tornado fang]ing around with me, are you? You honestly don't remember my name..." She lightly flicked the pendant that hung around her neck. "But you do remember what happened to Luna."

"Every day, every hour... but how could you possibly know about that?" He demanded.

Phi was absolutely flabbergasted at this point. "There's no way you could remember what happened that night... and not remember me." She stepped closer to him and searched his face. "Maybe you... have some sort of amnesia?"

Archetype shook his head. "No, if I had amnesia, I wouldn't have remembered that damned night at all." He said with anger in his voice.

Phi rubbed her chin and thought some more about this. "So your memory of me... is gone. If you're absolutely certain you don't remember me at all... then it's like your memory of Phi was erased, yet everything else was left intact."

He stared at her, but oddly, not in confusion; he started to believe she may be right.

After several seconds of silence, she spoke again. "Heh, we sure got sidetracked, huh?"

"What? Y-yeah, I guess." Archetype said, half-listening to her, still pondering how he could possibly forget Phi.

"Like I said, I won't need a weapon." She said while observing all the impressive weaponry around her. "But... I suppose it won't hurt to have one for the hell of it."

Archetype didn't respond, still zoned out from these new revelations.

"Hey! Niu, was it? What do you recommend for a newbie like me?" Phi asked.

Archetype checked his pockets and found he only had 9,000.

"Damn... am I really that broke?" He said to himself as he fished around for even more money he may have had.

The white-haired woman watched Archetype struggle to find more cash, and walked over to him.

*sigh* "Just take it" She said as she handed him 6,000 zenny. Archetype looked at the money, then looked back at her. "Why are you helping me?" He asked.

"It's a long story." She said in her usual flat voice.

Archetype stared at her for a bit, still reluctant to take the money. "But, it doesn't make sense. Why would you even-"

The woman interrupted him and yelled, "Jesus Christ, just take the damn money, alright!?"

Everyone suddenly turned toward them, wondering what the shouting was about. Archetype looked around the room, seeing all eyes on him. "What? Nothing to see here, we're just having, um... a conversation." He announced, slightly embarrassed.

They turned back to what they were doing, and Archetype turned his attention back to the mystery woman. "... fine. I'll take the money."

"You're welcome." She said sarcastically.

(She's such a dick. )

Archetype looked around the blade section of the shack, until he eventually came across a few sets of katana blades. But of all the katanas showcased, one set of blades stood out to him.

It looked like the handles were made of white/gray marble, with specks of red color scattered around it. A Ying & Yang symbol was carefully engraved into the marble. The blades were average length from what you'd expect from a katana blade, but it felt far more sturdy than any of Archetype's previous blades. And the scabbard had a very rich, dark purple color with several Kanji characters emblazoned into it.

He picked them up and swung them around lightly, to get a sense of the motion and feel of wielding these impressive sets of blades.

He turned to Niu and asked her, "How much for these?"
