Silver Age Sentinels. Anonymous 05/04/2023 (Thu) 04:45:12 Id: 2a9ce8 No. 797
Howdy anons! for this Role Playing season the gang checks out capes and domino masks. heres the wiki history Guardians of Order moved into the d20 market beginning with their new superhero role-playing game, Silver Age Sentinels (2002), which was written by Mark C. MacKinnon, Jeff Mackintosh, and Jesse Scoble, with Steve Kenson and was developed by Lucien Soulban.[1]: 337  Silver Age Sentinels was produced in both a Tri-Stat edition in July 2002 and then a d20 edition released at GenCon 35 later that year.[1]: 337  James Lowder, who had experience with packaging fiction for Green Knight Publishing, moved to assembling book packages for other game companies, including some Silver Age Sentinels fiction for Guardians of Order (2003-2004).[1]: 358  After Guardians of Order went out of business in 2006, White Wolf bought the IPs for some of the company's games, including Silver Age Sentinels.[1]: 339  White Wolf's ArtHaus imprint holds the rights to Silver Age Sentinels.[1]: 228  Dyskami Publishing, founded by Mark C. MacKinnon in 2019, has come out with Absolute Power, billed as the second edition of Silver Age Sentinels. Well thats drier than a dehydrated dog turd what done been in the sun fer a week. Anyway from the guys who brought you Big eyes Small mouth the sailor moon RPG and with the rights currently held by White Wolf of Vampire the Masquerade fame, we have capeshit: the rpg. There are many systems but this uses a hybredized d20 we thought would we easy to use and learn. First session will show us how the hell that goes. The GM has once again changed and so we go again into a new system with a new GM. Lets hope for better luck and more fun all around! And for the departing GM, Au Revoir mon Ami. At least We will always have Paris. Signing off for this seasons issue of "8chan RPG group: These niggers are fucking gay yo" I am your host, Anonymous. I love you anon.
Blank character sheet in an appropriate place.
I am going to be playing a polish immigrant named Andrzej Skowroneczku. His alias is "Psyker". He is a psychic who throws trashcans at vamps character to make him stop beating up innocent homeless people.
>>798 Ah, this is much better than the 20 page portfolio I had. Thank the fucking lord.
Temporary character sheet.
>>802 After an additional 2 and a half hours of character building and other assorted bullshit the adventure finally begin! >A robot wakes up in a dumpster and after some diagnostics gets rebooted and starts walking >Sees a man he recognizes >When approaching him he tries to talk to him but he does not respond >Shifting perspective to a man with his wife and child >He sees his wife get gunned down by a thug because he was too slow. >He then wakes up in a car only to see his wife once again die because he was too slow >He then wakes up again to see some more beloved people die because he was too slow. >We shift perspective once more to a cop in his office who is just waking up. >He looks around and notices a man lying bloodied on the floor >After a while someone comes knocking on the door. >In a panic he climbs out of his window and climbs down to the alley below. >When he is done he notices a bunch of thugs crowding around a man who is lying prone on the ground >He shouts at them to get away and they all start going to him instead >Once again we change perspective to a man walking down the street humming "Hey Sokoly". >He notices all around him how callous and selfish the people around him are and mutters to himself "Typical" >Eventually he notices the group of thugs ganging around a prone man and rushes forward to see what is going on >While contemplating what to do one of the thugs goes up and punches the officer in the face. >This starts combat. >Since were learning a new system most of our combat ends up being us trying to figure out how combat works. >The officer manages to tank multiple hits with his shield. the little robot is shooting his gun. man on the ground got up and started punching people and I threw a passing drone on one of their heads >I also lifted a guy up 100 feet in the air (91 meters) and dropped him. >Combat was pretty much over at that point so we started talking. >But I hear something from behind us >A van, and using my telepathy I deduce that there are some evil thoughts coming from it. >We open it up and find a bunch of naked women that have been bound and gagged >They are also branded with the same sign that the robot has on his chassis. After lifting him up and asking kindly what he knows, he simply states that he knows nothing. >After freeing them we learn that the authorities are working with one of the gangs of the city to kidnap women for this organization called "Carrion" >We start hearing sirens >the officer and the speedy man (he was the one laying on the ground earlier) teleport up on a nearby roof. >Me and the small robot discuss what to do and we eventually steal the van and drive away. >While we are in the drivers seat the other two teleport back in to the back of the van >While driving we dont know that they teleported into the back so one of them punches through the wall separating the driver from the rest of the van. >We find out through a phone that one of the guys doing the kidnappings is some guy named Caesar sanchez >He is already dead the officer killed him >But there was another one, a former friend of the officer who is now assisting in this odd kidnapping. >We also find out the girls have RFID chips in them. >The speedy one tells us of a relatively safe place that they can hide >We go there and help remove the RFID chips in the women, they are still dazed from what we assume are drugs. >While there we find out the officer calls himself Patty. >The little robot is named Rex >The wandering man was named Andrzej Skowroneczku, but no one can pronounce that so he is called Andrej Skylark instead >And I cant remember what the speedster was called.
>>806 Second session. >After a bit of arguing we decide to take the girls to this fella named Frank. >Getting people whistling the entire way when they see us. No idea what thats about >At franks house we leave the women and try to do so discretely as we are being watched by several people around. >Little do we know we still have the tracking device with us. >We decide to go dump it in an enemy gang territory >on the way back we are ambushed by 4 spics shooting into our van. >Shadow (patty) teleports us out of the van except for Vic (hes the speedster) because I decided to go to a window and disarm one of the spics. >Them shooting me didn't start combat but me disarming them did start combat. >Combat could have gone better. Shadow managed to punch one guys face in with such force it killed him instantly. >Vic manged to dash in and out with his knife, instantly killing another gang member. >Me I managed to hurt myself with a natural 1. >After we dealt with the spics we were quite badly hurt but we notice one of them is still alive and leaning against the wall. >Rex the robot takes out his cattle prod and stuns him. >We take one of their cars and drive it over to Johns place. >I plead with him to just tell us the info we need and we will let him go. >He spits back in my face. >The rest of the gang decides to torture him for a while >After some un gentle persuasion we find out that his boss Jesus (Pronounced he sus) has a night club and they usually take kidnapped girls to this one vet clinic on the north side. >After that I wanted to let him go but John decides to just shoot him. >He then offers us guns in exchange for kidnapping some guy who fucked his wife. We stopped playing after some discussion about whether or not we should do it.
>>821 >Buncha lookouts whistling as we drive by. Whats that all about? Never been to the ghetto?
>>822 No I dont go to ghettos.
So 3rd session happened. And uh... It did not go well for our party.
So we wake up at Johns, have breakfast, and make plans for the day. After a brief debate we decided to go to the vets office. So the gang borrowed an old car from John and hit the road. We get to the parking lot and realize we have no plan. Did we make a plan? No we left the psychic with the car and just stumbled into the office. Lobby has an old lady with a dog and a secretary. I go up and lie to the secretary and fail. "Hi I have a very sick guinea pig in my coat here I need a doctor now." "We dont help rodents". So deadwalled I decide to clear the lobby and then bumrush the back office. So I go to the old lady and make an intimidation check, Nat 1. My guy bites his tongue and mumbles at her. She asks if im retarded. Utterly defeated I went back to the car and had a cigarette. Psychic goes in to try his luck with the robot and the speedster. a minute later they all came back to the car cept the robot. He came back 20 minutes later. No one got anything.

>>885 >>884 A more elaborate explanation >We wake up at johns house >Everyone had slept except for rex who went around fixing sutff. He got a lead for some guy who might be interested in robots like him. >John made us breakfast >Over breakfast we discuss what we're going to do. out of all the leads we got we decide to go to the veterinarian first. >When we arrive at the veterinarian I, Andrej, stay with the car while the other 3 investigate. >As they march in Rex goes invisible and sneaks past people. >Vic decides to march straight into the operating room >When there he asks if hes got the girls. >Doctor is very confused >Vic insults the doctor and then leaves, Refusing to elaborate. >While that is going on Paddy decides to try and intimidate an old woman in the waiting room. >It goes horribly as he rolls a natural 1. >goes outside and tell me to go in while he watches the car. >When I do the old woman asks me if I am with the retarded man. >Vic comes out looking very confused, Rex is nowhere to be seen and the receptionist is threatening to call the cops. >I try and defuse the situation by telling the receptionist my friends are just having a bad day and we'll be leaving now. >While all of this is going on Rex had snuck past everyone and into the surveillance room, Finding a hatch leading down into what looks like a prison >Going a bit further in he finds a computer but fails to hack it and thus he gets out and gets back to the car with us. >We leave and out of character discuss what the fuck Vic was doing. >Apparently he thought this is where we had left the women that we rescued. He had completely forgotten that this was the guy potentially putting chips in kidnapped women. >After that failure we decide to go to Jesus disco club. >Rex goes first sneaking around in an alley trying to get past this big guy. >Tries to stun him with a stun baton. It doesn't knock him out though. >He shouts for reinforcement >Fight breaks out >The thug cant actually see the little robot who stunned him so he just blasts in his general direction. >He misses but 2 more thugs are coming into the alley. >I decide to go near the alley to try and covertly aid the robot >Vic just decides to shoot the 2 thugs going into the alley >The little robot hightails it out of there and we all make our escape from the disco. >While this was going on Paddy decided to leave the group and go visit one of his colleagues, The one who we saw in a photo of the kidnappers >While there they have a heated discussion with paddys friend telling him he is in over his head. >Paddy does eventually get him to reveal the location of a storage where they take the girls. >Once we all meet up again we decide to go to this storage and hang around waiting for the gang to meet us. >They eventually arrive with several dozens of heavily armed goons and gang members. >Way too many for us to kill >after a while the trucks with the heavily armed goons are gone, leaving only some la familia gang members left. >Paddy and rex teleport away going after the truck while vic and I stay behind >After a while some of the women who we're left get herded into an alley and they start shooting at them. >In an attempt to stop them I was going to sneakily use my telekinesis to grab their guns and shoot them with them. >Vic decides to just shoot at them from the roof. >There is 8 of them versus us 2. Vic miraculously eats 3 bullets and yet lives. He then super speeds out of there. >I eventually use my telekinesis to flee as well.
[Expand Post]>Unfortunately this does mean that the goons alert the other car. This causes dozens of vehicles to swarm around the car that the heavily armed goons drove away in. >Rex and paddy give up their chase as we all realize we left Johns car by the storage. >We inform john that he is kinda fucked as we then realize that our communications line might also be intercepted. >I shave off my beard and try to lay low as just another hobo for a while while the other 3 try and find a place to stay. Vic is barely hanging on to dear life. And that is how everything went wrong. I am going to be having the 4th session later today (about 4 hours from now) and that is going to be so much fun. Quite impressive that we managed to fuck up pretty much every lead that we had.
>Finally get to the last session >We are all at the hideout workshop >We get a phonecall >I dont want to answer for fear of them recognizing my voice >Vic takes the call >Its Frank >He tells us to stay >Eventually we start hearing trucks >I hide on the roof >Eventually Frank comes in and throws Vic around, Dude is fucking pissed. >Keeps yelling at Vic to tell him what the fuck is going on. >After some time arguing and Frank showing off his Earth powers, He tells us his plan. >We are going to pretend to be handed over to La Familia. >Then we are going to ambush them, Killing the leadership in one fell swoop. >We all reluctantly agree to it. But we have a day on us before that happens. >So I come down from the roof after Franks boys leave and agree to go buy some medical supplies and tacobell. >We were really hungry. Paddy and Vic shared a taco box, I got some quesadilla. >Next day Frank and the fat boss comes around. Handcuffs most of the party. >I avoid capture by hiding on the roof. >Contemplate just letting the rest of the party die. >Decide instead to follow them. Get directions from Rex about where the car is going thanks to our newly encrypted earpiece. >They get thrown in a prison cell. Some guy comes in and beats up Vic but gets his head stomped by the fat boss. >I pretend to be a hobo outside for a while. Even got 5$. >After waiting a while we are then taking to the meeting place. >Jesus and his La Familia are waiting for us, they even got 3 graves dug out for us (They dont know about the phychic hobo). >As Jesus lowers his gun a rocket flies by and blows up a car. >I constrict Jesus and cause some damage as combat starts. >He bursts into flames and somehow negates my constriction >Combat ensues with him >He rolls incredibly poorly while we get really lucky. >Expect for me, who has a ball of fire thrown at him that instantly knocks me out of the fight. >Eventually they splatter his brains with a well placed shot. >Afterwards we decide we need to kill the boss so we go to his mansion. >Paddy needed to go though so we had to speedrun through one of the minor bosses and on to the big guy himself >Starts with rex sneaking up on him and injecting him with something. >Then we all burst in and I throw a liquor cabinet at him >Rex then lights him on fire >All the while Paddy and Vic blast the fuck out of him with baseball bats and shotguns >I also use my telekinesis to stop certain chunks of meat from reforming. >After a long battle we eventually melt him only to fall through some portal. >Some guy with portals teleport in arms and guns behind us. Our powers no longer work thanks to some femboy standing off into the distance. >Dramatic scene wtuh frank begging to have us spared >Lanky man agrees and then thanks us on successfully blowing up the city >Lol wut? >See a broadcast about how several bombs have been going off through the city and apparently we have been blamed for it. >Lanky man and his femboy disappears. >We look onto the distance and realize we are pretty fucked. And that was the last session. We are never going back to silver age sentinels because pretty much none of us like it. We might be going back to the campaign but if we do we are going to be using a different system. So far we have been using the D20 system, The original SAS was for tri-stat though so maybe we fucked up picking the D20 version? We dont know. For now though we got a pretty bitter ending.
