Tried to harbour a spy?” He asked, a grin tugging at his lips. His own spy had ratted him out. He glanced at Arknon. “That isn’t very seemly for a diplomatic meeting, is it, general?” @Not an Ookla @The Unknown Order "This meeting isn't completely diplomatic either, Professor." He pulls out some blueprints. "General, I, and all the people of Aukarnit, are willing to make a deal." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I am here. Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Quote Hey, everyone. Usually, we don’t remove characters from the RP (even if it is temporary like a knockout) without the writer’s permission. Like you can’t go up to a character and say ‘I knock out Edge’ or ‘I kill Edge’ because it’s polite to just RP an action and let Exo decide how Edge realistically reacts to it (eg. ‘Edge gets knocked out’ or ‘Edge escapes’). Sometimes people don’t want their characters knocked out and inactive temporarily, and that’s fine. 47 minutes ago, The Unknown Order said: Ark stops the swing with Telekinesis. "Does anyone here have Knockout Absorption?" Ceros’ eyes widened and he took a step back. The meeting had dissolved into violence. “I do,” he said, raising a hand slightly. Knockout Absorption was the first thing he’d learnt. “But I’d need skin contact. And she’d probably use her death absorption on me before I could knock her out.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either she was playing stupid, or... “You don’t know your own power,” he said. Typical for a native to not understand higher ventures. Still, if she ever learned her magic she could become truly dangerous. Walking forward, Ceros decided to risk it and quickly tried to grab her wrist and knock her out using his power. Quote Just to be clear: so I’ve RPed Ceros’ action, but because it concerns Exo’s character, Exo decides whether it works or Edge pulls away or something else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He glances at the girl. "And you clearly have death absorption. No need to deny it." Quote This has been bothering me, is death absorption supposed to be capitalized? Also, please let some of us respond so there's no responses in quick succession between two people. Now my guy looks really odd just standing there.

Tacitus Posted January 11, 2021 Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 (edited) Quote Name: Aua Desciption: An old man, an Aukarnit of some small renown. Generally carries a wooden staff, and appears unreadable to most. Magic: Life absorber, has learned Perfect Protection in prolongation, along with Major Age Prevention. So seeing as how he appears old... He's been around for a while. He's close to Perfect Age Prevention, but can't quite get a hold on it. Some general info: Was called to a settlement for some reason. the Aukarnit wouldn't tell him why they chose him to go, but he assumes it has something to do with the fact he has Perfect protection. Sorry I'm late! Aua walked barefooted through the streets. The Alausoo were most definitely not humble, with towns and cities like this. Moving stone from the very earth to build Castles? They claimed to have superior technology to the tribes, but obviously they lacked the knowledge to go with it. Did they know trees took exhaling breaths, and turned them into air? They were willing to cut down the tree to build houses. Did they know why it rains? They freely drank its waters. The Alausoo stumbled upon innovation, where the Ua'alo used what they had, understood what they had.
