I found songs for Remington and Nathan. Remington's was easy. 

 

Watch You Crawl  by Red 

 

Nathan's was a little harder, but I finally found one that captures his mixture of despair and hope. 

 

In Like a Lion (Always Winter) by Relient K

 

Funtimes doesn't have so much a song as a character moment: 

 

Welcome to Cloudcuckooland!

[Kobold King he/him]

So Funtimes is a Lego Unikitty? I can totally see that, actually. "Watch You Crawl" is also very fitting for what we've seen of Remington Springfield, the character who's more epic than most of the Epics in this game.

 

Speaking of which, I'm coming up with a minor Epic who could work for the Wacko Brigade (with approval.) He's a tall man with sharp blue eyes and a long mustache. Before Calamity, he was a stage magician called Aldo the Enigmatic--he is now an Epic who goes by the same name.

 

Aldo the Enigmatic has two powers. The first is teleportation; so long as he is not being directly viewed, he can vanish and appear in another location (the teleport will fail if his destination is being directly observed.)

 

Aldo's second power is much more interesting. Calamity has increased his already sharp and observant eyes into a power of deduction almost indistinguishable from precognition. He can watch marbles thrown into the air and instantly predict where each of them will fall, and which corners of the room they will each roll to. If he is shot at, he can track the trajectory of the bullets and dodge each one (with a stylish turn and flapping of his cape, of course.) This power is generally limited to only a few moments into the future, as events he is unaware of can throw off his predictions. This also makes him less invincible than an Epic like Fortuity--a sniper or another concealed threat could take him out, provided they leave no clues that would enable him to deduce their presence.

 

He may be a little too powerful for a minor Epic, but I find I really like the idea of a stylish magician Epic working for the Wacko Brigade.

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

I like it. He's kind of a cross between a minor Epic and a major one--his powers are good enough to put him ahead of Hotwire or Big Al, but limited enough that he won't be a major player.

And personality wise, he sounds just ridiculous enough to be really entertaining.

The personality sounds interesting and, while he is to strong to count as a "minor Epic sidekick", the power level still isn´t a problem given that most of us have multiple powerful Epics, I myself am a mayor offender on that front.

The only problem that I could possibly see is that his powerset is a weakened version of powers already in the game but that isn´t something major and more of a "diversity is nice" nitpick. (I do this whole "blahblahblah"-x pretty often, don´t I? )

 

Should I go next in the museum?

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

I think so. Any objections?

Diversity... hmm, if everyone agrees it's important, I could tweak his power set a little. I like the deductive precognition though.

 

Though unless more changes are decreed necessary, Aldo the Enigmatic may be coming to a city near you on the next game day! Get your tickets now, and hold onto  your hats!

 

I have no objections to you going next in the Museum. I think I'm waiting for Mailw to set up the Lightwards-Altermind meeting.

 

In the meantime, you know what I'll be doing. I've got internet access and a new Epic, so...

 

[Edgedancer he/him]

Where do I buy cards for the show, or is about a month in advance to early?

 

Alrighty I´m going next then.

 

Matrim, mind sharing your intentions with the explosion bits, so that none of missplay that scene?

[Edgedancer he/him]

Is Remington still with Nathan or did he move and could Nighthound and Ray see the black clad girl if they just enter the room or is she to far away?

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

Remington is a bit deeper into the museum and the two women are close to Nathan near the front.

[Kobold King he/him]

Yes Ray. Everybody hates Nighthound as much as you do. Including, possibly, his sister.

 

I added Aldo to the "Epics of Oregon" thread. We edit our original posts when adding new Epics, right?

Yeah, Nighthound is loathsome.

 

That´s how I understood it.

[Kobold King he/him]

Wait a minute... this illuminates Nighthound's song!

 

"When You're Evil" by Voltaire perfectly depicts both his dark and trollfaced antics! Why didn't we see this sooner?

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

Am I next then?

[Kobold King he/him]

Am I next then?

 

Assuming you're finished viewing the awesomeness that is Nighthound's theme music, then yes I believe it is.

[Edgedancer he/him]

This is just perfect, it might fit even better than the Oogie boogie song. What am I to say? Lets let the cat speak.

 

Yes TwyLight you are.

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

Between the Time I go to sleep, and the Time I wake up, you guys have had like, 4 seperate Conversations.

Only? We are letting our pace slip.

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

We really need to get back on our game.

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

Also, When you said that the Song, 'When You're Evil' Is Nighthound's Theme. This Version is the his Real Song.

[Edgedancer he/him]

Huh, fine.... I won´t manage to write something before I go to sleep today, so if Voidus wants PP to stumble in there or something that´s okay with me. Talking about PP, I feel kind of sorry for both Ray and Nathan given that PP´s "problem" that Voidus keeps bringing up, can easily jeparodize an alliance between them.

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

Both versions of that song are perfect. 

 

And yes, Edgedancer. Yes it can. Oh, well. We don't call 'em the Wacko Brigade because they're the portrait of sanity. Though most of them are fairly smart.

[Mailliw73 he/him]

Don´t worry. Worst case scenario we can move over to Europe or something.

 I vote yes!

 

I think I'm waiting for Maillw to set up the Lightwards-Altermind meeting.

I don't know what he would do to set it up. I saw LW following Claudius to the SW and them meeting there. We can plan something else though.   

 

Matrim, mind sharing your intentions with the explosion bits, so that none of missplay that scene?

Yes, Mat, can you? I don't know what to do with Altermind, because I don't know what you're planning. For things like this where you have plan-changing ideas, can you please post them here first so that we can plan for them and talk them out?

First Flashpoint POV up. 200 zombie army men=dead.

I just Posted a New Epic, Murphy, in my Post in the Epics Of Oregon.

 

Here's a Description of his Power:

Murphionic Field: Antyhing that can go wrong, Will. If you insult him, you'll bite your tonuge. If you try to attttack him, you'll tripp, if you try to use a Power on him, you'll hit an Ally instead. If yuo right about hymn, You'll Make Typo's.

 

The more of us who go up against him at once, the more likely our Deaths become.

I could write something up. To be clear, who all is with Altermind at the moment, and are they inside or outside the Sports Warehouse?

Niiiice. He'd be awesome to see, though I get the feeling he'd be the most overpowered Epic in the RP.

What if you go up against him and try to fail? Will that thwart his Murphonic Field, or will you simply fail at failing (which is probably the saddest thing I can think of)?
