If you're signing up, do so here etc etc :mokken:

The Professor, the creator of the 'Peak Point Helmet', a helmet capable of bestowing tremendous intelligence onto it's subject has had one of these helmets stolen by a Monkey from a Zoo during a delivery. This Monkey has gained intelligence, power and has quickly gained control of all the monkeys in the zoo, setting them free and placing Peak Point Helmets on them as well, the Monkey, Specter quickly makes his objective The Professor's Time Machine.

After breaking into the Lab, he has the Time Machine activated, sending all the monkeys to different points in time to take ove, making monkeys the dominant species instead of humans. Before the time machine sends them all however, some children visit the lab to see the time machine and are accidentally sent through time as well, this being where the story starts...

The preferred age range would be more focus between 10-15, you're free to step out of this range, just a preference for the setting :wacky:

At the start, every human has a Stun Club and Time Net (for self defense and catching monkeys respectively)

You don't have to be one of the children, you can be one of the monkeys for instance :monster:

When new gadgets are introduced, not everyone recieves them, but you are free to make suggestions for new gadgets you would like to use in the near future.

Just for those who haven't played Ape Escape but still wish to join...

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/_.../c/ce/Pipo_Monkeys.png/424px-Pipo_Monkeys.png is how the different monkeys look, as for how they differ...

Yellow Pants: Pipo Monkeys wearing yellow pants have no special ability or power.

Red Pants: In Ape Escape 1, these Pipo Monkeys featured the ability to throw bombs, shoot missiles, carried a machine gun, and would attack physically if Spike (the MC) got too close.

Black Pants: Pipo Monkeys wearing black pants usually wear sunglasses, a tie, and carry a machine gun.

Blue Pants: Pipo Monkeys wearing blue pants are very fast and usually wear running shoes, a cape, and goggles. Under the goggles their eyes are the same as a Pipo Monkey wearing light blue pants.

Light Blue Pants: Pipo Monkeys wearing light blue pants are very cowardly and have different-shaped eyes.

Green Pants: Pipo Monkeys wearing green pants can see very well because they wear special vision goggles and usually wear a backpack that can fire missiles.

White Pants: Pipo Monkeys with White pants had a high alertness level and were difficult to sneak up upon in the first Ape Escape.

WHile they may have guns, rockets etc they aren't very lethal, just rather painful :hmmm:

Monkeys aren't all you have to watch out for either, depending on the era of history you end up in, different monsters will also be there to make your job more difficult, you won't know what to expect till you go there either :monster: also, human interaction should be kept to an absolute minimum (barring PC to PC), since monkeys are trying to rewrite history, you shouldn't see any anyway.

Ordinarily, everyone is split up, only when Specter is detected will everyone have the option to team up to find Specter and attempt to catch him.

I... Think that's everything, if i've missed anything out/you have any questions, let me know. :monster:

Looks good, aside from one thing, which is more a fault on my part :wacky:

Should've said it but in this RP, it takes place during the Ape Escape 1 timeline, without the existence of Spike or Buzz/Jake :gasp: so yeah, completely my fault there, but change that and everything is fine :ryan:

Also, once approved and all, you're free to discuss where you'll end up when you get sent through the Time Machine (assuming you do so instantly) and whether you'll be with another character or on your own etc :monster:

And another thing for everyone, if you do choose to turn evil, you can either be mind controlled by Specter, or willingly follow him, or be independant at it, if you choose you can fill a 'rival' role to another character :monster:
 
well im thinking that we could be in the same place but in different time periods like for example you could leave messages in places for other players in future time periods to find... will that be a good or bad idea?

Yuki, I have nothing against the idea of leaving messages, just got to make sure it's possible for them to survive in the location they are set at, and also the whole degrading over time part :wacky: but if you can work it properly, you're more than welcome to go for it :monster:

And SP, gadgets don't apply to monkeys, so you don't need to worry about that part, as for backstory, doesn't need to be too in detail, just a small summary of the monkey's life etc :gasp:

Also, one will get on with making my bio by Monday at the latest, if creativity loves me :wacky:
 
Ah, sounds like a fun start :griin:

Also, bio will be delayed but still hoping to get it up today, my trial of Word expired on me so I need to redownload it :rage:

Name: James
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Personality: Highly childish, energetic and very rarely takes things seriously, takes the warp through time as an adventure without taking into account the dangers. Has a unique ability to get in and out of bad situations. Not one of the brightest people, he tends to get himself into all kinds of trouble.
Appearance: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oIcKoSllH...qoCaxFVkg/s1600/ape_escape_3_profilelarge.jpg blue haired guy, obv :andry:
Gadgets: Stun Club/Time Net
Backstory: James, one of the elder children who visited the Time Machine on the day of Specter's attack took it as an opportunity, probably making this worse is appearing in the era every child dreams of. The era of the dinosaurs, being about as reckless as he is ignorant of other people he sets off, getting into danger at every step, no doubt.

I'll get a bio up today hopefully.

I was going to do it yesterday but I was at a comics convention, so it was a bit too hectic and tiring (but great!) for me to do this when I got back.
 
-waits for argosaurus to post his, slowly munching on that black guy from jurassic park- sorry couldnt remember his name, i swear im not racist i have alot of friends who are racers.... i mean black... im not RACIST!!!!! :'(
 
Urk. I was going to post this bio tonight, but time ran away and wagged a finger at me as it leapt off a cliff into the seas...

I'll post the bio first thing in the morning. I'd do it now but it is insanely late and I need to sleep.
 
EDIT: Yikes. I hadn't realised I'd double posted then... Sorry.





Name: Thales 'The Monkey Shocker'
Franklin.

Age: 15.

Gender: Male.

Race: Human.

Personality: A tough kid, though he is also very manic and is rumoured to be insane.
Compared to the people he grew up with he is fairly intelligent, but his insanity obscures the facts in his mind. Dates and names often get mixed up, and he cannot remember certain details when he needs them the most. When this happens he can have very severe panic attacks.
He wants to shock and capture as many monkeys as possible, and beat the records of the other ape hunters. He’d even release some monkeys back through time just to get the opportunity to add more monkeys to his shock pile.

Appearance: He is dressed to shock.
Bleached blonde and purple spikey-punkish hair facing to the right.
Blonde and purple eyebrows.
Has heterochromia of the eyes; one blue, one green.
Purple tank top with yellow lightning bolt design.
Purple and yellow trousers in lightning-themed design.
A black belt with a metal skull-monkey buckle.
Black boots with a lightning design on them.

Gadgets: Stun Club/Time Net


Backstory: Thales was always perceived as an oddball. He distanced himself from other kids mainly because they also distanced themselves from him. He is a very knowledgeable boy; however he has a problem with sorting the information out in his head. As a result of this he failed his history exam, and all of his essays were handed back to him with low grades. Thales was outraged, as he knew he knew much more about the world than the other kids who got high grades. Why couldn’t his brain keep the information? The other kids laughed at him, and called him as stupid as a monkey.


Thales’ problem was not stupidity. This kid had issues separating fact from fiction. His mind would wander into a daydream both during class and during reading, and the real course of history often intermingled with his own ideas and creations without him noticing. With no visual cues to aid his study, Thales struggled hard to pass history (actually his favourite subject, despite all of this), and was losing all hope.

One day Thales was at a zoo and the kids roared with laughter as they passed the monkey cages. Thales was distraught, but the monkeys in the cages even started to burst out laughing and pointing at Thales too, who by then was in tears. Furious, Thales stormed up to the monkey cage and went to punch one in the face through the bars. To his horror, the ape just bit his hand, hard, and then stole his belongings from his pockets.

Adamant to get his revenge, Thales decided to dress to shock. He became ‘The Monkey Shocker’, and designed his own clothes. To his delight the other kids were a little startled by his new attire, for he looked incredibly badass. Where previously he would be greeted by laughter and monkey noises he now was met only with silence and gasps of horror.


Loving his new look, it was almost a new identity for Thales. He was hiding behind his new goal, to take revenge on monkeys, and to show humans that he has what it takes!

His next aim was to throw rocks at monkeys at the zoo, and he intended to do this in front of other kids from his school. However, this zoo rapidly descended into madness when the albino monkey Specter found the Peak Point Helmet and took control of all of the monkeys. Determined to attack a monkey, Thales chased the army of chimps into the lab containing the time machine but was accidentally warped back in time himself.

Confused and angry, Thales felt for a moment that he was robbed of his chance to take action against monkeys… Then he looks up. He finds himself armed with a Stun Club and Time Net in an altered timeline; one filled with monkeys he can finally put right! Not only that but Thales, now a time traveller, could put his visits to good use and learn from the eras he visits. While an altered timeline, Thales fancied that by ridding the zones of monkeys he could perhaps preserve the truth about the past, and learn it from firsthand experience.

Theme Tune:
 
Argie... One loves it :ohoho: I can see us going crazy together :rofl:

Alreet, with Argor's bio made now to get my butt in gear and get the RP started :monster:

Just a few notes for everyone...

Stun Club, while a self defense weapon is pretty much useless against the big creatures in time, so don't go trying to attack a Dinosaur or anything :mokken: small monsters, monkeys etc are fine with them, with some monkeys more able to resist them than others.

Only after catching all the monkeys let loose in an era can you be transported back to your own seperate Time Stations, otherwise you're more or less stuck there :wacky:

As these are your own Time Stations, you won't always be teamed up with the same people, if you're in a team at all, so keep that in mind when you depart to new areas :monster:

The transmissions from The Professor or Specter cannot work two-ways, you only hear them and they can't hear you. But you are well aware of what they are saying, whether it's information on the era you are in or in Specter's case, a threat or challenge to find him etc.

I think that's all :hmmm: now to get the thread up :andry:
