This is where you can ask me relevant questions (or, alternately, do it through Private Message, e-mail or similar.) Questions such as:
*What rule sets does X game go by? *What am I supposed to be doing here? What threads should I reply to? *Can you e-mail me something (perhaps a character sheet, or rule document, or PDF, or image, or what not?) *I have a thread in mind. Where should I post it? *Is this bat country?

Tech as in technique or tech as in technology? Xeno can provide it within limits. He was the one who did most of the building of the R. Wings, albeit with helps from their Ranger friends.
Pretty soon.

Can you make more than one character? o.o Also, do we form most of the stats ourselves or do you assist in some areas of it?

In Changing of the Guard, you start with only one character. After good, innovative play, I give Awards, for everything from a strategic move to a snappy bit of dialogue to good in-character play to a mistake on my part (the infamous GM Fuckup Award!). Right now, people have everything from one to five characters. I'm here to provide assistance, but ultimately you have tremendous freedom as to how you develop your character and an almost infinite array of options as to Classes, Abilities, Merits, Equipment, where you put your Attributed. etc. Over the course of my GMing career, I've made tens of thousands of unique abilities and plan to make an almost infinite array more. Whatever you come up with, we'll discuss and end up coming up with something.
Final Battle is explicitly about getting hundreds of characters. James and Justin's team is around 500 people.
Power Struggle allows two at the start and is pretty heavily customizable regarding characters, but fairly low-powered to start.
System allows many a character to start.
Most of the other games allow only one character. Virus 37 gives you one to start, usually, but lets you earn more. Same with my Rifts, Splicers and Heroes Unlimited game.
Does that help? Rules for most of these games are posted in relevant sections. Final Battle and Changing of the Guard are particularly complete regarding the rules, having literally thousands of pages of content for guidance.

Character Creation, yes. You can also send me a copy through some means, if you would.

You mean legally? I don't know. Publishing the idea here may legally be considered publishing, therefore affording you a tenuous legal copyright. However, obviously in continuities such as Naruto, FFRPG, etc. no copyright could occur since they are within a universe wholly owned by another person or actor. Informally, on this site, I tend to prefer people honoring each other's ideas as unique and at least inquiring.
...What random image?
What's "better"? Non-CH is a fun way to explore the world outside of Crashing Heavens (not that CH is a straitjacket, but it does let you, say, play a villain and actually kill or destroy a lot of people).
