Channelknight Fadran Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 "The most prevalent nearest here is universally-local. There's a type of crystal that can generate a level of attractive force akin to gravity; hence why pretty much everyone lives on little slabs of rocks adrift in space. It's not something that can be individually-controlled, though. But it can be installed into machinery and weapons to create with all sorts of nasty effects." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xinoehp512 Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Echo Six nodded and created a rough picture of a crystal gun. Echo Three snapped his fingers. "A map of the planet. You have that, right?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xinoehp512 Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 "How long would that take?" Echo Three sighed. "Never mind. If it's bad, It'd be better to do it ourselves. Echo Four, do you feel like going on an adventure?" Echo Four's eyes lit up, and he shot through the ceiling. "He will fly around the world. Echo Six, you make note of everything he sees."

#1 Taln Fan Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Quote Is it alright if I go back and edit my character a little bit? Wanna give him a bit more power.

Channelknight Fadran Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Quote Yeah. Exactly. Invincibility paired with infinite observational capability changes the premise from "ragtag group of adventurers making a stand" to "we know everything and will strike immediately" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Channelknight Fadran Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Quote I guess so. And this really isn't my RP. I get freaked out by the stuff that come in conflict with my ideas, but I shouldn't be DMing or railroading at all. So yeah. Follow through with what you wanna follow through with, and so as long as you aren't "I found the exhaust port!" or anything then we should be good here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Channelknight Fadran Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Quote Very little. I've always pictured them as sorta-suburban areas, all generally walled off from each other. Interaction between colonies is certainly allowed, but under regulations and supervision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2EmLee2 Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 EmLee put down her book and started listening to Fadran's and the Echo's conversation thoughtfully. "I think I may have a way of gaining some information, though it probably won't work," she said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryoZenith Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 Cryo stumbled upon EmLee, Fadran and Echo talking as he was walking about. His powers gave him a sort of ad hoc intuition about where he needed to be, where world-changing events were coalescing or about to coalesce, but were annoyingly unhelpful on the details. He did notice the somewhat secretive tone of the conversation, but not much more. Well, this usually works, Cryo pondered, so here goes: "Hey y'all, you know where I can find the nearest bathroom?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmLee startled at the appearance of the new person, but was not altogether surprised- after all, things like this happened often near the Fellowship. “Oh, it’s over there.” She pointed in the direction of the bathroom door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
