The tier system in a nutshell:

Tier 5: An expert cartographer or a decent marksman.
Tier 4: An expert marksman.
Tier 3: An expert marksman, cartographer and chef who can tie strong knots and is trained in hostage negotiation or a marksman so good he can shoot down every bullet fired by a minigun while armed with a rusted single-shot pistol that veers to the left.
Tier 2: Someone with teleportation, mind control, time manipulation, intangibility, the ability to turn into an exact duplicate of anything, or the ability to see into the future with perfect accuracy.
Tier 1: Someone with teleportation, mind control, time manipulation, intangibility, the ability to turn into an exact duplicate of anything and the ability to see into the future with perfect accuracy.[/spoiler]

Cute, crazy girls would also be nice.

Can you be more specific?

A healthy mix of fun and epic (which is exactly what Crono Trigger is ;))
It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.

50% TVTropes fodder / 30% Srs Bsness / 20% Generic Asskickery

I think it would depend on the groups, honestly. I want to see both the silliness of anime (for instance, a tsukomi-boke routine) and serious business, in either a Chrono Trigger way or an FMA way (if you aren't familiar with RPGs).

About the same as AlterForm, honestly, save for maybe (since we're all crazee now) 100 % tropes fodder // 50% Srs Bsness / 50% Generic Asskickery

Silly fun for me, at least at first, Srs Bzns can show up later, once we've all settled into our roles.

Hitting the random trope button on TVTropes might generate something amusing...
The mind transcends the body.
It's also a little cold because of that.
Please get it a blanket.

I wish I could read your mind,
I can barely read mine.

"Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. At 2:15, it begins rolling up characters."

[spoiler]
"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

Okay, my exams are behind me now but I suck at writing and I'm not sure how to start you guys off. :lol I do have some plot ideas, but they aren't strung together very well.

Wood, I'm going to need some help. I can give you summaries of any series you're unfamiliar with. Maybe an IM session, if you have a client. And if anyone wants to suggest what their characters might be doing at the start of the campaign...

I best finish off my flavor text quickly then, good to go mechanically but RL fins a way to fuck it all up as always.

My flavor writeup sucks because I was too lazy to finish it, but I've got it all in my head. Lily's personality does consist of more than 'Kuudere' and 'Les Yay'.

I was writing it last week, and collecting representative tropes...until I got sidetracked and spent the whole week at TVTropes.

Late response ftw. I have AIM, if that's cool with you. SN is woodenbandman. And you gotta PM me to tell me when to get on otherwise I won't.
