TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted January 24, 2015 Author Posted January 24, 2015 It has been decided. Ozy will have a pet starfish that he may or may not use as a loincloth. Is his name Patrick? Because his name should totally be Patrick. 1
Kobold King he/him Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Is his name Patrick? Because his name should totally be Patrick. "Once, there was an ugly barnacle. And he was so ugly, Nighthound died! The end." (I never watched that show often, but Patrick's barnacle story stuck with me for some reason. ) 1

Mailliw73 he/him Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 I'm putting up the next Altermind post now. I think the only things left in the meeting are for Funtimes to respond and Sam's reaction and then the call from Thoughttown can come in. Anything else you guys have?
Edgedancer he/him Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Alright, I've come up with some stuff for Ozymandias. Here's the contents of a couple PM posts I've made. Post 1: General description Post 2: Further explanation of Entropic Decay If you have any questions, comments, or requests for clarifications, please let me know through this thread or a PM. I haven't come up with personality, backstory, or a weakness (Twi, I could use some help on this) yet, but I'd love to hear your thoughts so far. Sounds good so far. As for questions, is it tecnically possible to hit him with something his powers could affect by moving it fast enough. I like him. I don't have anything to say about him that I haven't said in the PM, but I will say that I think starfish loincloths will quickly become the fashion in Oregon. Think of all the characters you don´t want to see like that first, you know, like Nighthound or drunk!Lightwards. I'm putting up the next Altermind post now. I think the only things left in the meeting are for Funtimes to respond and Sam's reaction and then the call from Thoughttown can come in. Anything else you guys have? Nothing I could think of but I´m certain that it could be funny for Lightwards and Lucentia to have a "You´re drunk" conversation. 1
Guest Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Sounds good so far. As for questions, is it tecnically possible to hit him with something his powers could affect by moving it fast enough. No. That's his Prime Invincibility. Not only is Specific Decay on at an extremely high level, but he would probably just get out of the way.
Edgedancer he/him Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 No. That's his Prime Invincibility. Not only is Specific Decay on at an extremely high level, but he would probably just get out of the way. So does "extremly high" mean instant? On a similar note, when does he count as in danger and how fast does he become? Fatebreaker, when do you think the next Fade post is going to go up?

I think the only things left in the meeting are for Funtimes to respond and Sam's reaction and then the call from Thoughttown can come in. Anything else you guys have? Great post, Mailliw! I do have one question, though. How difficult to get rid of is the Mrs. Trattner hallucination? We've seen from Thoughttown posts that Altermind can cause hallucinations in people even after he's left their presence. Will the sobbing Elizabeth stay put in the Sadry residence, or will she invisibly follow Sam around wherever she goes until AM's weakness is activated again? (If the latter, then Altermind would have just made a huge mistake--both by threatening her mother, and by giving her a direct means of testing which part of her message set off his weakness. ) 1
Curiosity he/him Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Did anyone notice the flickering of Altermind's illusions? Am I going to get RAFO'd? 1
Edgedancer he/him Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Did anyone notice the flickering of Altermind's illusions? Am I going to get RAFO'd? Well, people were having a conversation with him, so that not happening would be rather preposterous. Sparks, given that Sam ought to act weird with the illusion of her mother it wouldn´t even be a far stratch for other people to notice that and make a connection. Thinking about it, with someone setting of his weakness shouldn´t he have become visible outright spelling it out to people. Only a short flikering seems like getting of easy after having his weakness activated. Edit: Alright Funtimes, no more drugs for you. Edited January 24, 2015 by Edgedancer 1

Thinking about it, with someone setting of his weakness shouldn´t he have become visible outright spelling it out to people. Only a short flikering seems like getting of easy after having his weakness activated. It wasn't his exact weakness. Think of it like how Kool-Aid effected Sourcefield. Sam came close to it, close enough to cause him to flicker, but my understanding is that she wasn't precise enough to completely shut it down. Lightwards didn't notice since he was tipsy and glaring at Funtimes. Funtimes doesn't seem to have noticed since... well, she's Funtimes and she was too busy giggling. (Great Funtimes post by the way, Twi.) Aldo noticed, and Lucentia probably did too. I can imagine either one of them cornering Sam after the meeting is over and trying to pressure her to reveal what she said that set AM off. 1

I do know his weakness as well actually and unless someone needs to rattle of specific measurments (in which case I got cheated ) she pretty much nailed it. Lucentia has been taking side glances at Sam the entire meeting over, because she enjoys her suffering, so she´s ought to notice both. 2

Lucentia has been taking side glances at Sam the entire meeting over, because she enjoys her suffering, so she´s ought to notice both. Hmm. I was under the impression that she was pretty close, but it took a little bit more to trigger it fully. (I thought she needed to actually know what she was saying in order to activate it fully. ) But then, that was just the general impression I was under. We'll need to talk to Mailliw about it to be sure. Also, Lucentia's a slontze. An observant slontze perhaps, but a slontze nonetheless. Edited January 24, 2015 by Kobold King 1

"And lo, the bite of praline Lucentia took was her last, for that bite caused her to immediately gain a million pounds. The human race had no choice but to enlist Mobius to send the Diamond Queen through a wormhole out of Earth's atmosphere. Though Lucentia did manage to use her diamonds to protect herself from the icy cold vacuum of space, she was forced to spend the rest of her life orbiting the planet as a very shiny, very foul-tempered moon. The end." 3

Someone having to know the actuall details would seem arbitrary. Firefight With Newton for example it didn´t matter if the compliments were genuine or obvious insincere lies her weakness triggered anyway. Although this reminds me that for fairness sake I should tell the ones I told before Nighthound´s new weakness. Something that can be said about her brother as well. (Am I the only one that things that using the in world insults is to tame for these two, especially given that Slontze gets used rather jokingly at times?) Edited January 24, 2015 by Edgedancer 1

Pretty sure that any word that accurately described those two would be blocked by the forum's profanity filters. 1
Kobold King he/him Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Just for review in The Dalles: Samurai pandas are flooding the streets. An army of pandas, pigs, and assorted mutants are invading the city's borders. The Panda himself is floating above them, born by angelic wings and issuing a battlecry. Edgerunner, Scribbler, and the Momentum Twins are engaging the ground forces in the city; Vondra's scouting out the situation in a helicopter. Reader's been captured. (And I'm not entirely sure where he's being held at the moment.) Does that all sound right? Anything really important that I'm forgetting about the general state of the battle? And does anyone know where Reader is, exactly? 1

The Panda told his mutant slaves to bring Reader along, so he should be somewhere in the trail of attackers but Lightsworn wasn´t precise here. With the time skips taking over one hour in the Panda posts (exact time not given) I´m not sure if the timelines exactly match up. (The group around Autumn doesn´t really seem to have spend that much time getting to the clinic, so maybe we should have a small timeskip there, while Baxter takes care of Backtrack.)

Right now I'm writing up a post for all my Dalles characters, showing all of them responding to the invasion. We can work out how to arrange the time skip once I've brought all my characters up to the current date.
