Kobold King he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 And nightmares. Just wait till the Calamityville RP. And I saw the first Halloween decorations in my local Walmart today, so the day draws nearer and nearer...
Voidus Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Just wait till the Calamityville RP. And I saw the first Halloween decorations in my local Walmart today, so the day draws nearer and nearer... I'm working on some canon fodder Epics for it, including Jack who can animate plants, and prefers to use pumpkins. 2
Kobold King he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 I'm working on some canon fodder Epics for it, including Jack who can animate plants, and prefers to use pumpkins. That Epic who can make fictional characters real would also be a great candidate for it. Hand him a stack of horror movies and he'll be the chief terror of the city. 2
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Don't let any humans near Calamityville while Koschei is there. And whatever you do, don't introduce him to Slaughterhouse....or at the very least, pray they don't get along. 2

Hand him a stack of horror movies and he'll be the chief terror of the city. Understudy will definitely be making an appearance as Jason at some point As will Fiend (Name still doesn't suit at all but I couldn't think of anything.) Can create whatever the person he’s targeting fears most. When facing Epics this often manifests as that Epics weakness. Edited September 10, 2014 by Voidus 2

Wanna Hang Out?, a Slaughterchei story Koschei walked up to the bar and sat down beside Slaughterhouse. "Tough night, huh?" he asked the bloodstained surgeon, ordering a shot of whiskey from the bartender. "You could say that," Slaughterhouse replied with a low growl. "Someone killed Lisa. She was my best work yet--an entire human body sculpted into the shape of a triangle. She was beautiful." Koschei nodded in understanding. "Are you free on Friday?" "Friday? No, I'm giving children nightmares then." "How 'bout Saturday?" "The weekend's good." The pair sat in silence for a moment before Koschei spoke up. "You want to hang out this weekend? We could give children nightmares together." Slaughterhouse grinned, showing a row of pointed canine teeth. "I'd like that quite a lot." 4

TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Make it stop, make it stop! Ahhhhhhhh! *Jumps out of window* Look on the bright side: Funtimes hasn't met Möbius, has no reason to seek her out, and is still rather cheerful and willing to look at the sunny side of life. 2
Voidus Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Look on the bright side: Funtimes hasn't met Möbius, has no reason to seek her out, and is still rather cheerful and willing to look at the sunny side of life. Good. Good. I can still retain some of my sanity at least. Ooh I just realized that Tail will make an awesome Haloween Epic. The person you always see out the corner of your eyes but can never get a proper look at 3
Mailliw73 he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Ooh I need a good one for that RP. 1
Voidus Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 I'm doing a list in the Epics Doc if you want one.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Here's a good recipe: Take a fairly benign power, give it to a psychopath, add a few bystanders, and stir well. 2
Mailliw73 he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 I'll check out that doc tomorrow. That's always a good idea. Altermind post is up now.

Kobold King he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) OK, here's Sentinel, AKA Chicago Joe. Epic Name: Chicago Joe (once in the RP I intend to have Lightwards suggest the name of Sentinel.) Pre-Calamity Information: Jonah Trumble was a successful businessman in Chicago before Calamity, happily married with two children. He was a clean-cut, no-nonsense sort of man, and was a strict teetotaler. Once Calamity rose, however, his life slowly began to fall apart. His once spotless neighborhood was becoming a filthy slum with each passing day, and his teenage daughter was vaporized by Deathpoint in one of the Epic's early strikes. When Jonah's own powers came to light, his wife left him and fled the city, taking their five-year old son with her. Jonah's powers were nothing special, but he began using them more and more frequently. The combination of Calamity's corruption and his own depression brought out the worst in him--he began to deliberately go against the values he once held, becoming increasingly slovenly and ill-mannered. When Steelheart took over the city, Jonah Trumble decided he'd had enough. Preferring not to live in a steel-plated city shrouded in darkness, he made his way to Portland, Oregon, stubbornly referring to himself as Chicago Joe and flying into a cuss-filled rant at anyone who used the word "Newcago" in front of him. Powers: Chicago Joe is one of Oregon's less powerful Epics, with only a single power at his disposal. He is capable of transforming his body into a granite or marble statue, retaining consciousness throughout the experience. His statue form is immobile and can be damaged with sufficient force. Small chips and cracks to the statue's surface become scar tissue when he reverts to human form, but the infliction of major damage to the sculpture could kill him. He primarily uses his power as a means of defense, turning himself to stone when he's being attacked or when he wants to take a long nap. As his power really has no offensive capabilities, he generally lies low and doesn't interact with other Epics. Modus Operandi: These days Chicago Joe has no home or possessions of any kind. He wanders around Portland's neighborhoods, stealing the food he needs to survive and the liquor he needs to maintain a constant state of drunkenness. He's angered easily, but has been known to fall asleep in the middle of cuss-filled rants. When he is not drunk--a rare condition for him--he becomes a touch more rational, and is capable of proficiently using a knife. Appearance: A heavy-built man with dark skin and graying hair. Hints of stubble dot his face, though for some reason his constant shifting into stone stunts his body enough to prevent the growing of a full beard. Pony: His cutie mark is difficult to make out from this picture, but it is a bottle of jack. Edited September 10, 2014 by Kobold King 2

So he's like a Vashta Nerada combined with a Silence? Also, since we're in a nightmarish mood, I thought I'd just leave this here…. *whistles* 1

Voidus Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 I was actually about to suggest that for Panacea :S
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 What, the cutie mark? Or that she chase some poor guard down to heal him? 2
Tulir he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Panacea is definitely awesome. No question about it. 1
Mailliw73 he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Hey, does anyone want to make a pony for Chi or Mare? I'm interested to see what it'd look like, especially Chi's. Koschei and evil healer? Woah. Kobold, I like Chicago Joe.
Kobold King he/him Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 I think a red cross or a band aid could work for Panacea. I am both intrigued and alarmed at how evil the world's most despicable healing Epic might be. Also I found the original folk tale Koschei's appears to be based on, and cross-referencing that with what we know of Remington's backstory doesn't paint a pretty picture. Hey, does anyone want to make a pony for Chi or Mare? I'm interested to see what it'd look like, especially Chi's.Koschei and evil healer? Woah.Kobold, I like Chicago Joe. They don't have ponies yet? I'm going to bed soon, but tomorrow morning I'll get right to it, assuming TwiLyght doesn't beat me there. And thanks. He'll be a fun character to write I'm sure, especially contrasted with the much more uptight Lightwards.
