Nebulans

How long will this TP last?

The initial TP will last 2 weeks starting on Feb 16th.

How much must I RP as a *Master

It'll be a 2 week TP, a few hours a week will be fair. Just promise to be about and active!

I want to be Scorponok why can't I be Scorponok, god.

A range of the characters have already been taken by admin to ensure that the TP itself will run smoothly. Also it isn't fun to get a character and have Blueshift breathing down your neck with a list of plot points that your character /has/ to do.

However after the TP, /all/ characters will be opened up for apps.

Masters are horrid and will destroy the MUSH and my soul.

That's why it is starting as a 2 week TP. If it goes horrid, then we will go in a different direction. But all signs are good. And after all, everyone loved it when we did Pretenders!

Why would Transformers pull their own heads off, boo

The *master process will be done slightly different here to remove the 'retarded' factor of the original. How? WAIT AND SEE. But it will be cool and not lame, promise.

Are Scorponok and Fort Max going to be huge?

No they will be big Transformers, around size 9 or so.

I want to be in this TP but I dont want to be a *master

Fine! You don't have to be! The first few days will be a bit bubble-ish before the rest of the Transformers decamp to Nebulos, but then it is all out pew-pew-pewing

How does the Nebulan and the Transformer interact?

The process of binary bonding leaves them with pretty much the same mind. How /much/ is up to you. If you want them to be distinct people, fantastic. If you just want to be the Transformer and pretend he just has a gimpy head, fine! It just gives you more options for roleplay.

Will existing FCs like Kup, Blurr, Arcee get *Masters?

No. However Nightbeat, Snapdragon and Apeface will.

Can I bicker endlessly with my Nebulan on channel?

Do you bicker endlessly with yourself? Roleplaying with yourself isn't roleplay, it is masturbation. And that is naughty. It is fair to say that *masters can occasionally pose disagreements, but that kind of thing should be rare due to the binary bonding process, so no RPing with yourself on channel.

What colour are Nebulans?

In the cartoon, they were green. In the comic they were Caucasian and black. For some unknown reason, /blue/ Nebulans are engrained on theme on this MUSH. As Nebulos is a huge and diverse planet, it has a lot of races of all different colour. So your Nebulon can be any colour you want. Yay.

The Nebulan Targetmasters have dumb names like 'Aimless' and 'Peacemaker' whats with that?

The Nebulan Targetmaster guys have really odd non-names yes. Maybe they are just nicknames or codenames. Maybe they had cruel parents. Up to you.

Fantastic, time for my OC headmaster who turns into a butterfly!

We won't be allowing OC *masters for the foreseeable future. Petition Hazard!

'''I want my character to become a *master! Or my human to!'''

No, boo. Not for the forseeable future anyway.

Humans are not physiologically suited to become *masters at this points, so only Nebulans can do it. Spike is not going to become Fort Max's head, he is too busy being a politician anyway! Being a *master doesn't really add any major advantage, so there is no reason why everyone should want one - it was more of a survival thing at a specific point in time. It is just something /different/ not better

What do Nebulans eat?

Nebulans have a robust physiology with two hearts, that allows them to go through the *Master process. Nebulans can eat human food. Humans, however, cannot eat Nebulan food, which contains yummy, yummy mercury rather often.

Are *Master Nebulans cyborgs?

Yes. They have had joint replacement done to withstand the forces placed upon them. They really annoy airport security. However, they still look just like normal Nebulans; the changes are all internal.

Does the armour come off?

Yes. In fact, Nebulans can store their armour in subspace, due to their cyborg modifications. They cannot store crazily large objects like couches, however.
