View Full Version : The Orthodoxy


Meltman

I'm looking to recruit a bit ahead of time for a villain group that I plan on making when CoV comes out. The name of the group, as you might have already guessed, is:
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y299/Meltman/guildportallogo.jpg (http://www.guildportal.com/Guild.aspx?GuildID=48433&TabID=425169)

What is The Orthodoxy? Basically it's your classic villain group. Strong willed independent Super Villains that occasionally come together to kick the good guys' asses. Throw in a bid for world domination every once in a while, maybe rob a bank on the weekends, kidnap a few politicians and hold them for ransom, you know, the usual. So if you're interested, post a brief character synopsis here.

Roster:
Ordre: Meltman
Stone Star: MaligneFamily
Legion Prime: Masked Revenger
Count Clout: iggy880
Darknesse Unleashed: Darknesse
Certifiable: Green Tower
Poisonesse: Suburban Hell
Sinister Edge: Harmakhet
Libertine.: Titomancer
Experiment 388: TheIcyOne
Heidern: Moon Jump

My character:
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y299/Meltman/CoV/Characters/ordre2.jpg
ORDRE

Real name: Lost for decades.
Motive: Nothing short of bending the world to his will.
Archetype: Mastermind
Powers: Mercs/Poison/Leadership/Teleport

Condensed Origin:
Member of a secret society of mages in medieval Europe, Ordre rose through the ranks quickly with his natural ability for magic, and after a few decades of being near the top, took control from the current head after eliminating his competition. In a bid to gain more power, Ordre took part in a dangerous ritual that left him blind, but with the ability to "feel" the world around him and to manipulate fine details to give himself and his allies the advantage and to give a disadvantage to his advisories. The ritual, however, had the unfortunately side effect of destroying everyone else participating in it, leaving a huge power vacuum in the middle ranks of the society. Shortly thereafter, it fell apart, leaving Ordre alone. With his control over the minute, Ordre also craved control over larger things, the world in particular. Ordre left to the Rogue Isles with other French refugees, but hid himself from the fate that befell them. When Lord Recluse and Arachnos took control of the Island, Ordre saw it as an opportunity to find other like minded individuals who could help him gain control of the world, and create a new Orthodoxy: His.

...kidnap a few politicians and hold them for ransom...

Honestly, who the hell pays to get a politician back?

Masked Revenger

Well, I'm not sure the Orb is really the group joining type, but I could see them teaming with other villains if it suited their agenda. Count me in.

Do you want me to repost the Orbs info here?

It looks great Melty, and I'm digging the logo.

Meltman
10-11-2005, 02:16 PM
Thanks. (Incase you haven't guessed, the circle thing is the supergroup logo that I picked.)

Masked Revenger
10-11-2005, 02:49 PM
Nice, I like the logo too.

Chris

Melty, add the CoV launch date to the calender (I'm at school, I have time to think of those petty things)

Meltman
10-11-2005, 03:10 PM
Oh, thanks, good idea.

Masked Revenger
10-11-2005, 04:17 PM
Okay, I got my character set up so he shows up in the roster now.

Meltman

Cool.

MaligneFamily
10-11-2005, 07:55 PM
I'm going to set it up when I get home from work, and in other news I think I'm gonna use my Brute, Stone Star (Paul Maligne) for the Orthodoxy.

Meltman

...and in other news I think I'm gonna use my Brute, Stone Star (Paul Maligne) for the Orthodoxy.

Noted.

Meltman
10-17-2005, 02:05 PM
Made a template for Orthodoxy sigs if anybody wants to use it. (font I used to fill in the form on mine was new courier bold) If you have a picture I can make one for you.

Stone Star registered at the site. I await for the damn game release for pictures... :jono:

Meltman

Ok, you're set up as a member now.

iggy880

No beta for you? I wish you would've asked sooner, I already gave my open beta away.

MaligneFamily
10-20-2005, 05:36 AM
No I have beta... just not the ability to wait in two hour increments for a 60 hour DL when the game ships in less than 10 days...

Meltman
10-20-2005, 12:22 PM
If you want to pm me with an idea of what you want him to look like, I can mess around in the creator so you can get an idea going...

Well this was my original concept of him back in the day, though now he is blind and more 5th Column-ish... But please not too much red and black... And don't worry too too much, it's only ten days and a patch loading away!

Meltman
10-20-2005, 08:28 PM
I didn't know how to do 5th Columny without too much red and black, so...here's what I came up with...

Just leave your PC on all night downloading, thats what I did.

MaligneFamily
10-20-2005, 11:17 PM
... two hour increments...

I'm only on my comp with the DLer for 2 hour increments, and I need to DL I6's monstrosity.

Thanks Melty, I like the costume a helluva lot. The face and overal body probably needs to be thicker. If you want, you can use the side view for now on the sig, because that looks badass.

Meltman
10-20-2005, 11:45 PM
Will do, though I'll save an editor version with the layers so I can switch in the final look once you make him.

MaligneFamily
10-21-2005, 12:03 AM
Sweet thanks man!

Again, I don't think anyone would be using it at night time when you are SLEEPING!!!

Whenever you get the time, add me... By the way who are the leaders of the Orthodoxy?

Meltman
11-03-2005, 01:52 AM
I am, but everyone on the group has invite powers right now.

Ack, I thought they said no to me. Well I guess since I was in Fracture's roster I'm in Fracture. Sorry for the mixup! :shinner:

Well, if I turn out to be wrong, feel free to join us.

Harmakhet
11-03-2005, 01:01 PM
BTW I'm Sinister Edge if anyone is curious. (though now I see that listed in the roster)

I will get some screenies and such down the road a bit. I think I will spend a bit of time on my main brute over on Pinnacle as my VG is leaving me in the dust.

Thanks again for the invite Melty...look forward to ganking some good guys with you all eventually.

Harm

11-03-2005, 09:02 PM
Harm, team with me any time, since I'm rarely on because of grounding and stuff, my char should be near your level.

Masked Revenger
11-04-2005, 04:22 PM
It's going to be a while until I get this game (possible until Christmas)... I think you should remove me from the roster, or something.

Chris

Meltman
11-04-2005, 10:38 PM
Nah, I'll just wait.

Titomancer
11-06-2005, 02:37 AM
Dont suppose you got room for another Brute?

Libertine.
Breif Synopsis: Basically a failed Statesman clone, gone bad. Broke out of the Zig, hellbent on distruction, the usual. I'll write up a more detailed one eventually....I promise....

Anyway, got room?


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v515/titomancer/Libertine.jpg

Meltman
11-06-2005, 04:07 AM
Sure we have room. And I love that costume. Consider yourself in.

Titomancer
11-06-2005, 06:05 AM
Slick. I should be in-game pretty regularly, just hit up my global I guess, cause im a slacker and too lazy to go hunting for that master guru list of globals.

Meltman
11-06-2005, 06:31 AM
@Meltman, but yeah, I'll keep an eye out for you.

Meltman
11-06-2005, 07:49 AM

Harmakhet
11-07-2005, 04:24 PM
Hey melty...gonna need another invite...realized that my build was all wrong so I remade the guy but no one was on when I was last. Will try to catch folks in the next few days and get back in.

MaligneFamily
11-26-2005, 07:57 AM
We should have a meeting to figure out the direction of the group and how to get there... Also so we can finally have a formal meet up in game.

Meltman
11-26-2005, 09:43 AM
Would be nice. Not that there is much of a direction to discuss...
